Chapter 100 23
The sea water is rolling with white foam, wave after wave, flooding onto the beach.When retreating, leave shells intact or broken.
You can't see small fish, shrimps and crabs. This is a tourist attraction. Smart marine life will not get close to the tourist-filled offshore.
"Do you know?" Luo Xiu kept tilting his head, staring quietly at the sparkling sea, and suddenly said in a particularly soft and detached tone, "The total area of the ocean is about 3.6 million square kilometers, accounting for about the surface area of the earth." 70.00% of one. All life on earth originates from the ocean. So far, the ocean is still the most suitable place for most species to survive.
Humans living on land could land on the moon, which is 40 kilometers away from the earth, more than 384000 years ago. However, only 5.00% and 90.00% of the unknown world has been explored for the ocean that belongs to the earth. "
You Cheng was stunned for a moment, and smiled slightly: "You know a lot about oceans. I saw some when I was studying, but I forgot about it."
Luo Xiu still stared at the sea, and said slowly: "Actually, for us, the sea is the real hometown and home."
There was a strange cautiousness in his tone, so You Cheng felt a little strange subconsciously, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little bit. He forced a smile: "But we are not fish, we don't have gill openings to breathe, and now we don't have gill openings to breathe. way to survive in the ocean."
"Do you know flounder?" Luo Xiu asked lightly.
You Cheng nodded.
"When the flounder was just born, its eyes also grew on both sides. But when it grows to about 3 centimeters, the eyes on one side will move to the top of the head, gradually cross the upper edge of the head, and move to the other side until It doesn't stop until you get close to the other eye. Any idea why?"
"I don't know." You Cheng said frankly.
"Because when the flounder swims in the water, it doesn't face up like other fish, but the side with the eyes faces up, swimming sideways." Luo Xiu told him, "They also like to lie on the bottom of the sea, The body is covered with a layer of sand, with only two eyes exposed quietly waiting for prey to come, or avoiding predators. In this way, two eyes on one side are very suitable."
It took You Cheng a few seconds to digest what he said: "So, the eye of the flounder is the result of its natural evolution to adapt to the environment?"
"For creatures, this kind of evolution and natural selection is very common." Luo Xiu turned his head to look at him and smiled, "For example, in the deep sea, there are many creatures that can emit light, such as lantern fish and searchlights. Fish, electric rod fish, light-faced bream, comb jellyfish, rosy jellyfish... why do they glow? Because they have to adapt to the dark environment of the deep sea, they can only force themselves to continuously evolve."
"Oh," You Cheng could only sigh with emotion, "You really know the ocean very well."
Luo Xiu said leisurely: "Life originates from the sea. The current land creatures can only continue to evolve in order to adapt to life on land. If they have to return to the sea, then they will continue to evolve in order to adapt to the sea again."
You Cheng thought for a while: "What you said makes sense, but I think it's still too far away from me. At least in my lifetime, I don't need to live in the sea and be forced to evolve."
Luo Xiu smiled and remained silent.
You Cheng shrugged and said, "Thinking about it, it's really a blessing. I don't want to live in the ocean at all. What big sharks, sea king dragons, killer crabs...there are too many scary creatures in the sea. I heard Even jellyfish are poisonous."
Luo Xiu still remained silent, staring fixedly at the blue sea in the distance through the car window.
The sunlight fell on the sea surface, refracting golden ripples, they slowly rippling, undulating, and twisting, outlining the faces of skeletons and skeletons without any flesh and blood.
In the eye sockets that were dark blue due to being soaked in seawater, there was blood that turned into light red after being refracted by the sun, gushing out one after another, gradually blurring.
As far as the eye can see, the sea is almost covered with blood.
Human eyes cannot see and ears cannot hear.
In fact, in the sea more than ten kilometers away from the coastline, whether it is turtles, crabs or all kinds of fish and shrimps, they are "screaming" in panic, while fleeing frantically, diving desperately down and down.
Of course they can also "speak", but because of the decibel problem, humans can't hear them most of the time, and they can hear them occasionally, and they can't understand their language.
Bear cod turned somersaults, flashing, and using the sound of "grunt grunt grunt" to warn its kind: "Run! Run!"
The sound of the flounder is like the sound made by the bass keys of an organ, and the sound of the sardines is: "哗啦哗啦", very magnificent and imposing, and the sound of the small mackerel is similar to chirping, like the sound of a bird...
In fact, they are not suitable for the deep sea, where the temperature is very low and the water pressure is high, which makes them very uncomfortable.
However, the blood on the surface of the sea is spreading, and they can only continue to escape to the depths.
Luo Xiu smiled slightly. No matter how fast you swim or how deep you dive, it is useless, because there is nothing that can escape this vast ocean.
Including - You Cheng and the guests he brought.
***
Twenty minutes later, the taxi stopped at the harbor smoothly, and a group of nine people got out of the car one by one.
There was a lot of people on the pier, and ships of various sizes, large and small, were moored at the port, waiting for guests to board.
With a glance, Ye Xi saw the ultra-luxury cruise ship.
It is so huge, the length of the ship is 400 meters, and the height is at least [-] meters. Only by raising your neck can you see its whole picture clearly.
The hull of the ship is sapphire blue, the sides of the ship are snow white, it has twelve floors, and there are red lifeboats hanging on both sides.
"Oh my god, this boat is awesome." Ye Xi couldn't help admiring.
You Cheng put his hands on his younger brother's shoulders and said with a smile, "Welcome to Thetis. It claims to surpass the 'Sailor of the Seas' and has just been promoted to the most luxurious top cruise ship in Asia."
Not to mention Jiang Kairui and his few students, even the well-informed Lin Lang looked straight at him.
Only Luo Ke was rubbing his temples, no expression of joy could be seen on his face.
He looked at the cruise ship twice, and then focused his gaze on the sea again. The rippling skull face was rapidly expanding, as if it was about to cover the entire sea.
In the undulating waves, there was a strange smell of blood.
The jaws opened and closed slightly, and they said again: "It's finally here, it's finally here, it's finally here..."
Luo Ke turned his head and silently looked at those extremely excited companions. The idea of persuading them to go back home rolled in his mind a few times, but he finally gave up.
Obviously, it's not going to be a pleasant trip.But if they are not allowed to go, they will be more unpleasant.
After a group of people boarded the ship, they realized that the ship was simply a small city.
Large rock climbing walls, surfing swimming pools, golf courses, luxury theaters, revolving restaurants, bars, casinos, world-class brand shopping streets... as long as you can imagine enjoyment, there are almost all of them.
There is even an ice skating rink on the bottom deck.Under the warm sunshine of the South China Sea, passengers can enjoy the fun of skating to their heart's content.
There are waiters with decent smiles and well-dressed clothes who take the guests to their respective rooms.
All bookings for the tour are sea view rooms, two people in each room.
Ye Xi originally wanted to share a room with his brother, to see Luo Xiu, but held back his words.Just as he was about to greet Yu Yun, he was stopped by Luo Ke: "You share a room with me."
"I don't want it." Ye Xi refused without hesitation.
Luo Ke wrapped his arms around his neck from behind, with a half-smile: "Think about it, do you want it or not?"
"I..." Just as Ye Xi was about to refuse, he suddenly remembered Xia Yu who was terrified when he was playing the mirror game, and the square starworm that Luo Ke copied when eating seafood. He immediately tilted his head, stared at Luo Ke, and said , "If I say no, will you be funny? For example, when I slept until midnight, I found a disgusting female ghost in the room, or when I woke up, I found a few live bugs on the pillow, etc. accident?"
"Of course not, am I such a boring person?" Luo Ke slowly shook his head.
"Really?" Ye Xi expressed doubts.
"How can you doubt my personality?" Luo Ke lowered his voice with an aggrieved expression.
With tourists and crew walking around, he didn't want to draw attention to himself.
"Personality..." Ye Xi also snorted in a low voice, "Do you have that kind of thing?"
"Xiao Yexi, think about it, you can't talk nonsense." Luo Ke warned with a smile, "As for me, besides my bad character, I have another shortcoming, which is my narrow mind. If anyone offends me, I must retaliate tenfold, a hundredfold."
Listen, listen, who can say such shameless words so confidently?Ye Xi was speechless.
"Tell me, do you want to sleep with me? Think about it, I will hold grudges against those who reject my kindness." Luo Ke chuckled softly.
Ye Xi froze for a few seconds, then smiled "sweetly": "Okay, I'll sleep with you."
"Not reluctantly?"
"Of course." Ye Xi said kindly, he didn't want to be the second "Xia Yu", and for no apparent reason.
Luo Ke smiled again, and said meaningfully: "Ye Xi, you should be grateful to me and willing to share a room with you."
Could this man be any more shameless?The corner of Ye Xi's mouth twitched: "Well, I am very grateful to you."
"Pull it down, your smile is faker than that of a zombie." Luo Ke rubbed his hair vigorously, and sighed sadly, "Why does no one believe me when I do good deeds with good intentions?"
Ye Xi dodged his hand and rolled his eyes helplessly.
They all lived in the third cabin, and the waiter took them directly to the elevator.
In the corridor of the cabin, there are Persian carpets with beautiful patterns, and there are exquisite and unique oil paintings hanging on the walls, which is as magnificent as a palace.
Jiang Kairui was so surprised that he couldn't speak at all, understand him, when he goes out occasionally, he can't even bear to stay in a small hotel, he either spends a night in an Internet cafe, or deals with a frugal child in the bathroom all night.
Jin Peng and Xia Yu also felt that their eyes were not strong enough, and they were dazzled.
The waiter explained to them the main structural layout of the cruise ship and related service activities while walking.He pushed open a cabin door and asked them who lived in this room.
Yu Yun kept walking at the front, and there were people coming and going on the boat, and the voices were quite noisy. In addition, when Luo Ke and Ye Xi were talking, they deliberately lowered their voices, so he had no idea that the two had reached a consensus. He greeted : "Ye Xi, how about we live in this room?"
Ye Xi was a little embarrassed: "I, I agree to live with Luo Ke."
Yu Yun couldn't believe her ears, her eyes widened suddenly, and she blurted out, "What did you say?"
Luo Ke pulled Jiang Kairui and pushed him in front of Yu Yun: "What about Xiao Yexi, don't worry about it, this stupid baby is yours."
After finishing speaking, he pulled Ye Xi, walked into the opposite door, and closed the hatch smoothly.
Yu Yun stared fiercely at the closed hatch in front of him, gritted his teeth, ignored Jiang Kairui, and entered the room on his own.
Jiang Kairui knew that he didn't welcome him, so he stood there in embarrassment, looking uneasy and not knowing what to do.
Jin Peng approached, patted him on the shoulder, and said softly, "Everyone is like a child, and they like to lose their temper. You go to the same room with Xia Yu, and I will stay with Yu Yun."
Xia Yu suddenly showed a mournful expression, and wailed: "Jin Peng, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jinpeng gave him a warning look and said, "Take good care of Kerry, it's his first time on a cruise ship, he might be uncomfortable."
Seeing his serious eyes, Xia Yu didn't dare to say anything, and pulled Jiang Kairui away with a constipated expression.
Jin Peng cleared his throat, opened the door and entered Yu Yun's room.
Inside it is spacious, elegantly and comfortably furnished.
There are white lace curtains, and the two single beds are covered with snow-white embroidered sheets, quilt covers and pillowcases.
Beside the bed, there are two ivory white desks with two computers on them.
In the corner of the room, there is a refrigerator and a water dispenser.
The design of the entire cabin is quite humanized.
Yu Yun was sullenly lying on the bed on the left, obviously in a terrible mood, she didn't even take off her shoes.
Coughing lightly, Jinpeng walked to the water dispenser, saw a stack of disposable paper cups underneath, took out one, took half a cup of water, and handed it to Yu Yun: "Drink some water."
After staying in the hottest Hainan for most of the day, Yu Yun was of course feeling thirsty, he hesitated for a few seconds, then sat up, took it and took a sullen gulp.
"Unhappy? Because of Ye Xi?" Jin Peng asked knowingly.
Yu Yun didn't say anything.
Jin Peng sat down slowly beside him, and said lightly, "I grew up with Xia Yu, the so-called Fa Xiao, just like you and Ye Xi."
Yu Yun took another sip of water and said sullenly, "I know."
"No, you don't know." Jin Peng shook his head.
"Huh?" Yu Yun was taken aback.
"I like him." Jinpeng said lightly, "I like Xia Yu."
