When Gu Baiqing woke up, it was still daylight.

"You've been sleeping for a day and a night." Wei Lan leaned against the bed, and said the first time he woke up, "The pirate ship didn't follow, and it's probably still entangled by the seal. We've already passed through the black eyes. Captain Said to continue to speed up and strive to land on Nanwei Island within ten days."

"Has the snow not stopped?"

"No, it's still down." Wei Lan reached out to help him tuck the corner of the quilt, "Look at this posture, it won't stop for a month. Are you hungry? The captain has prepared food for you, mutton soup, do you want to eat now?" ?”

"Mutton soup?" Gu Baiqing was speechless, "Is he willing?"

"You have lost a lot of blood, and you have soaked in the sea. If you don't raise them well, I'm afraid it will be bad. Besides, the sheep are all dead, so what's the use of keeping them if you don't eat them?" As he spoke, Wei Lan He just laughed, his eyes were curved and he looked happy like a girl, "I've also followed suit, I haven't eaten mutton for a long time."

Gu Baiqing looked at her and laughed too: "Fortunately, he didn't die, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat meat."

"You deserve to die!" Wei Lan curled her lips, "It's too late for others to hide, but you have to take the initiative to provoke Haizhang. It's your luck that you didn't die."

Gu Baiqing didn't make any excuses, just looked at her with a smile.

Wei Lan squeezed his arm, feeling a little disgusted: "You have gained a lot of flesh and lost so much blood, how much food you have to eat to make up for it, what a waste."

"I'm afraid the smell of blood isn't enough." Gu Baiqing also touched his wrist with some distress, which had already been wrapped in several layers of thick cotton cloth strips, and it still hurt to frown when he touched it lightly, "The medicine has been applied. ?”

"Ah."

"Where did you get the hemostatic medicine?"

"There is no hemostatic medicine, so I sprinkled some salt water to disinfect it, and the captain gave you a simple treatment..." Wei Lan shook his head, "Let's make do with it, I won't die anyway."

"... so cruel."

"Well, it's that cruel."

The consequences of soaking in water in winter have already been revealed. Even wrapped under a thick quilt, every inch of skin on my body is complaining of pain and numbness. I really can't sit still, and lie down uncomfortable.Gu Baiqing's vitality was seriously injured this time, and at night he had a high fever, he was dizzy and couldn't open his eyes, his whole body was weak and uncomfortable, and he almost spent the last few days in a coma.

Waking up again, the people on the boat were already happily waiting to go ashore.

"We will arrive at Nanwei Island in the evening." I haven't seen you for a few days, and the captain has lost a lot of weight, but fortunately he is very energetic, and his big hand is very powerful when he puts his big hand on his forehead. "Boy, it's all up to you this time. Don't worry." Call me stingy, this time the big head is yours."

"What's the big deal?" Gu Baiqing rolled his eyes and grinned in pain, "All the live sheep are dead. When the boat was launched, the goods were all soaked in water. It's a big loss."

"It's not bad if you can save your life." The captain was very contented and waved his hand indifferently.

Gu Baiqing rolled his eyes, and laughed: "It can't be said that I got nothing..."

"what?"

"I want to say that I am a righteous person."

"What do you mean?" The captain touched his forehead suspiciously, "The fever is gone, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Hey." Gu Baiqing smiled without saying a word.

The post-apocalyptic winters are hard to bear, the cold weather makes people complain, and the offshore ports will be covered with ice, so ships will not be accepted easily, and Nanwei Island is no exception.After being intercepted at the port of entry, the captain sent someone down to talk and promise to pay a certain amount of money, and the port laborers who arrived late came to help with ice-breaking tools.

After breaking down, disembark the ship and order supplies, manage the port manager, and find the receiver. After a lot of tossing until late at night, there is no time to stop.The crew, who had been trapped at sea for two months, regained their spirits. The captain gave an order, one by one ran faster than the other, and disappeared in groups on the trail at the corner of the port. The huge ship suddenly became deserted.

"What did you do?" The captain stared dumbfounded at the people under his feet, and was a little confused for a while, "Did he offend you?"

"Even if he offends me, I can't argue with him." Gu Baiqing poked the unconscious man with a casual tone, "Who can have trouble with money?"

When the captain thought something was wrong, his eyes almost fell off: "You don't want to...I won't do this! Don't even think about it!"

"Where are you thinking about?" Gu Baiqing didn't bother to pay attention to him, circling around the unconscious man, muttering to himself with some headaches, "Where did the tail go?"

"What? You speak louder, I didn't hear you."

"I didn't talk to you, let's go." Gu Baiqing suddenly raised his head again, looked around, and told him worriedly, "Go and watch outside the door, and don't let anyone in, even Wei Lan."

"Wei Lan said that she was sleepy, and she has already returned... Didn't you also drug her?!" The captain stepped back in horror.

"Stop nagging, I'm so annoying, go out and guard the gate."

After dismissing the captain, Gu Baiqing began to study Wei Jin again, squatting beside him, pinching this side, poking there, and unrelentingly opened the waistband of his trousers to feel, but he couldn't find the key point.

"Where's the tail?" Gu Baiqing grumbled and touched it up and down, gritted his teeth, turned and ran out, and when he came back, the bucket of cold water in his hand tilted and poured all over Wei Jin's body.

...Why still not?

Pulling away the broken hair next to the ear, I saw a thin opening and closing, the shallow mark was like a scar, pink and white, still trembling slightly, crystal clear after being wet.Gu Baiqing stared intently for a while, then slowly moved his fingers up, the gills that kept opening and closing seemed to be frightened, and suddenly closed, which startled him instead.

But there is no tail... Isn't it a mermaid?Gu Baiqing curled his lips, even if he wasn't a mermaid, he was definitely not a human being.

*******************

The trading of the tiger head boat on Nanwei Island was barely smooth, and some people rushed to collect the spoiled goods. After truly feeling the plight of the people's livelihood in Nanwei Island, the crew set foot on the boat again two days later. return trip.

"Bone Demon, where's Wei Jin?"

The anchor has been hoisted, and it was about to leave the port. Wei Lan counted the number of people twice but found no Wei Jin, so he hurried to find Gu Baiqing.

"Oh, he, he said he has something to do, so he won't leave with us." Gu Baiqing was whispering to the captain, without blinking, and bumped the captain with his elbow, asking for support , "The captain also agreed."

The captain looked at the sky and the earth, but he didn't look at Wei Lan.

"Really?" Wei Lan looked back and forth between the two suspiciously, "Didn't you leave him behind?"

"Half-price labor, who is willing?" Gu Baiqing yelled, "You actually doubt our principles?"

Fang Zhou, who had been standing by the side without making a sound, also said with some reluctance: "Brother Wei Jin is gone? Isn't he going to find relatives?"

"Who knows?" Gu Baiqing rubbed his shaggy hair comfortingly, "People come and go, don't talk about feelings on board, you will get used to it gradually."

The guilty captain was not as thick-skinned as Gu Baiqing, and hurried away like burning his ass: "Raise the sails, raise the sails! Let's set sail!"

Their return voyage went smoothly this time, avoiding the black eye in advance, and did not encounter the four fires, and the pirate ship that had followed them had disappeared, and it might have been crushed by Haizhang.This trip was uneventful, except for a few crew members who were cold and had a fever, there was no one missing.

After entering the port and completing a series of formalities, the sun has already set in the west.A group of crew members who received the reward hooked their shoulders and laughed happily. They were noisy and wanted to celebrate after disembarking and show off their adventure experience by the way.

"Bulb, come here." When the crew were about to disembark, Gu Baiqing called to stop the bald head.

"Hey, Brother Gu." The bald man trotted up to him, "Anything else to order?"

"You and brother go to the grocery store."

Lai Mazi is a lazy guy, it's just getting dark and he's about to close the door.

"Hey, Brother Gu is back." Seeing Gu Baiqing approaching, Lai Mazi yelled from a long distance away, "How is it this time?"

"TOEFL, you've gained a lot." Gu Baiqing smiled and pushed his bald head forward, "I'll introduce you to someone, let's talk inside."

Lai Mazi rolled his eyes, and his smile became meaningful. He raised his hand and hooked the bald head's neck, and pulled it in enthusiastically, "What's the name of this buddy?"

"Just call me a light bulb."

The small shop with no lights was dark at least. The three of them walked through the shop all the way, and then went down the stairs to the basement.

The basement is square and has the same structure as the small shop above, but it is empty without any goods, except for a chair standing alone in the middle.

"This is……"

Before the bald man could ask, he was thrown onto the chair by Lai Mazi in the next second. With two soft clicks, his arm was clasped by the iron piece that popped out from the chair.

"Brother Gu! Brother Gu, what's going on?!" The bald head screamed, struggling to stand up, but was firmly held in place by the iron plate.

With a cold face, Gu Baiqing stopped beating around the bush with him, and said bluntly, "Bulb, is it fun to be a ghost?"
