Plague Doctor

Sha sha sha, the sound of the sea flickering.

“Forget me...” Gu Jun stopped and silently listened to the wave, letting it take his mind far away and into the blurred part of his memory. As if he had gradually left the anatomy room, the light of the shadowless light was fading...

There was another light in front of him, like the flashing light of the scales, no, it was more like the sparkling light of the sun shining on the surface.

When the same scaly thing becomes clear, it's the light of the ocean.

The whimpering sound of the boat was also heard. Gu Jun seemed to be on a boat, on the deck of the Seabird.

The “scientific research vessel", which included his parents, registered 103.8 metres of captain, 5,536 tons of drainage, four floors tall in the building, a crew of 28, and an appraisal capacity of 82, for a conventional total of 110. He seemed to be able to see some shadows walking around the boat...

He liked to run around on the boat, almost every crew member had seen it, but at that time he was too young to see their abnormalities.

When these people look at the ocean, when they talk about the ocean, they have an unusual fanaticism in their eyes.

“Kid, let me tell you something, the world is strange.” A voice sounds suddenly, “some places you know it exists, you've heard a lot about it, touched a lot of things there, even met people there, but you just can't find it. ”

Gu Jun's head became more and more fissured, but he still felt it. The face of the Chinese word was flashing uncertainly...

But as the voice gradually coincided with this face, he suddenly remembered someone, Uncle Li! Uncle Li Zhenhong.

First mate, first mate of the Seabird, Uncle Li Zhenhong.

Gu Jun's head ached more and his heart tightened... Although he didn't play on the Seabird often, he had memories of Uncle Li Zhenhong, because Uncle Li was tall and handsome, and funny and funny, he was good to him, told him stories, gave him snacks...

Uncle Li... have you converted into this half-man half-fish fae...

“Where?” He heard himself asking, it was then that he, the naive voice, did not yet understand the meaning of each other's words. Lalaire?

“A lot." Uncle Li laughed, "That blurry face in the sun is facing the ocean," for example, a town called Innsmouth. It's supposed to be there, but it just can't be found. I'm telling you this, your parents have to talk about me again, haha. ”

Innsmouth? Gu Jun's painful head had his own doubts at the moment and his curiosity at the time. What was that place?

“The world, too many secrets.” Uncle Li said, walking away, gradually walking away.

“Wait..." Gu Jun tried to call him, but this memory or this illusion was twisting and shaking, and suddenly it seemed like a storm around him. This science boat burst into a tumbling wave, and there was something strange hidden in the wave that was difficult to name.

He seemed to hear a shout of surprise and fanaticism. The crew were shouting, Dagon, Dagon, Dagon...

Suddenly, the scene broke apart and Gu Jun returned to God, almost instantly falling on the anatomical table.

“Joon?” Luckily, Uncle Egg next to him held on. Wu Shiyu, Deng Xie Mai and others have already come. Wu Shiyu hastily asked: “Do you want to? ”

“Not bad...” Gu Jun's voice sandy, staring at the inhuman face of this deep diver's body, those prominent dead grey eyes, all over his scales, white belly, neck gills, fins between his hands and feet, pointed claws...

Such a monster, how could it be Uncle Li... but this, it seems, is indeed Uncle Li.

If the first mate of the Seabird is like this, isn't the captain of the Seabird, the ship's doctor, and the rest of the crew, they've all become like this?

The 110 crew members, are they inside the bodies of the 165 deep divers?

Why turn into a deep diver, to go to Lalaire?

Gu Jun thought about this a long time ago. According to Angel School research, Lalaire is legendary as an ancient city sinking under the sea. To go there, it seems difficult to achieve as a human body, but if you are a deep diver, you can dive thousands or even tens of thousands of meters into the sea...

“I remembered something and went to talk to the command center first. ”

He told the neighbors to put down the scalpel, get out of the autopsy room, go to the next communication room, talk to the command center about something that might be classified.

This body is suspected to be Seabird's first mate, Li Zhenhong, and searching for the mysterious town of "Innsmouth” is also a target of the Seabird. The name of the place is probably the pronunciation, and it is not clear what language or how to spell it. There is also the name of the giant sea monster, “Dagon” and "Dayan”, which is the sound.

“Received. Investigations have been initiated.” Return from the command center.

But the latter question could be answered immediately, and Grandpa Tong said: "The great jar is the fish god of the Philistines, and it looks like half a man and half a fish. ”

Gu Jun listened to the information. The Filistines were an ancient Mediterranean nation that had long since vanished in BC. The people were good at navigating and worshipping the gods of the sea. “Dagon” was their fish god, as documented in the Old Testament of the religious scriptures.

In fact, with regard to these legendary sea monsters, NASA has already done some documentation, because mythology often has its prototype.

It's just a similar sea monster. There are a lot of related legends among the peoples. I didn't know that the big one would be important before.

If Gu Jun's memory is correct, it is likely that Dazhen has something to do with Deep Diver and Lalaire.

Just as Gu Jun thought, there had been progress at the command center, and Grandpa's tone was strong: “Find an old newspaper of the Republic, 1920, with a strange story that a flag state naval officer claimed to have seen a sea monster on an isolated reef in the Pacific Ocean! ”

Various newspaper materials have been included in the NASA database. Knowing that clandestine organizations such as the Church of the Hereafter and the Lalaire existed long ago in the Republic, and even earlier, NASA gathered a great deal of information, whatever it was, about the old newspapers and so on in those republics.

A computer search now reveals such an old story, which appeared in the World Daily News section of 20 June 1920.

It's usually hard to get attention to what's documented in this section because it's all weird talk, and ghosts are weird for a while.

Unexpectedly, a bit of interesting material seems to have been dug up.

Soon after, Gu Jun saw the fax copy of this page of the old newspaper, the traditional text, vertical row, right to left reading, this world wonder column only occupies a small corner of the world edition, just to be entertaining:

[Missing flag state naval officers survive, claiming to witness sea monsters in the Pacific Ocean]
