"It has been three days since Liu Er's father took them out. I have a bad feeling. Zhang Mazi and the others capsized the boat earlier. The boat was broken into two halves from the middle. It was washed ashore with the tide and went out to sea. None of the eight people who fished came back, so I was a little worried. God bless me, and I hope Father Liu will come back safely."

"A week has passed, and we found a lot of debris on the beach, including the front plank and the oar that was broken in half. Something must have happened to them. My wife held me and cried, and kept shouting that her father was gone. I don’t know what to do, Liu Er’s father is very nice to me, but I’m also very sad.”

"We buried the broken ship, buried the clothes, and held a big funeral for those who were involved in the accident. However, no one dared to go to sea these days. Two ships were destroyed in a row. Everyone was a little scared. Some people said that we were drowned in the sea. God cursed me, I just think it’s funny, one of the gods said it, it’s just ridiculous.”

"My wife told me these days that she has been vomiting, and the grandmother next door said she is pregnant. I am very happy. This is almost the first happy event in the village these days. Alas, it is a pity that Liu Er's father is gone, otherwise He'll be happy too."

"..."

"The village chief came to me at noon and asked me to go fishing with Li Ergou and the others. I didn't want to agree, but last month they went to sea and too many people died. There were not enough men in the village. The village chief said that the livelihood of the village Just rely on fishing instead of going fishing. The kids don’t have money to study. I thought about it, and he was right, so I agreed. I will go with Li Ergou and the others early tomorrow morning. It’s my first time fishing, so I’m a little nervous.”

"I can't remember how I came back. When I woke up, I was lying on the bed at home. My wife was crying. The village chief was also there. There were many people at the door. When they saw that I was awake, they first asked me if I was okay. Then I asked Li Ergou and the others... Me, I didn’t know how to tell them that I was just lucky enough to come back alive. There was something in the sea, it was very scary! I didn’t know what it was, it was almost It ate everyone on the boat. I only remember that its back seemed to be red and had a long tail. It used its tail to capsize our boat. Li Ergou and the others were dragged down directly, and then The blood gurgled upwards..."

"My wife was a little frightened, but fortunately the baby in her belly was fine. I told everyone in the village about what was in the sea, and everyone was very scared. The village chief asked us not to go to sea for the time being. Those people who mumbled about God were right. It got even louder, I shouted in the village every day, I felt very panicked, this matter must not be over yet."

"Is there really a god?"

"..."

“I don’t know why, but there was a heavy fog suddenly early this morning, and it was very strange. What I saw seemed different from everyone else. What they saw was normal white fog, but what I saw was blood-red... ····”

"The harvest of the crops planted this year is very bad."

"Several months have passed and the fog has not receded. Tomorrow we decided to go out to sea to have a look. We have had no success this year and there is almost nothing to eat."

"It's weird, weird, weird, weird! I saw it again, and it's still there! But it didn't follow me. A head appeared on the sea, its tail kept fanning, and it smiled at me. I don't want it anymore. Going to sea!"

"I had a dream last night, and it was that thing again. It told me to throw a child into the sea within three days, or else it would take away the child in my wife's belly. Why did I have such a dream?"

"My wife had a miscarriage! She was still a boy! That dream was real. What should I do? I seem to be targeted by it!"

"I threw the stillborn child into the sea. The red mist turned white but did not disappear."

"It's been five years and I've been dreaming about it again, but my wife is pregnant again...how can I convince everyone?"

"Hahahahahahahahaha, I'm so stupid, I don't even need to convince them. Those fools thought it was divine punishment."

······

Lou Xinzhou couldn't speak for a long time after reading what Mr. Huo wrote.

The light outside the window was faint, as if covered with a thin layer of red, and the wind blowing in was a bit cold. She looked at the words on the hemp paper. They were strong and powerful at first, and in the end, they became more and more crazy. The handwriting looked like two words. How much do the villagers on the island know personally?

The villagers on the island thought that these things were divine punishment, but in fact, the children the villagers gave away over the years were all so that the Huo family could give birth to their children safely and smoothly.

But Mr. Huo decided to go to sea in the first place so that the children in the village could have money to study and practice calligraphy. If he had not agreed to the village chief's request to go to sea to fish, wouldn't all this have happened?

But people are always selfish. Only when they are living a good life will they think about helping other people. Even if Mr. Huo does not go to sea, there will be someone to take his place.

That thing in the sea seems to understand people's hearts very well.

Lou Xinzhou couldn't help but sigh. She suddenly understood why Huo Shiliu felt so deeply helpless and disgusted. The truth was often crueler than reality.

Lou Xinzhou had previously put the mission sign into her chest. At this moment, the sign suddenly lit up. She took it out and saw that the small white characters were neat and beautiful.

"Hidden mission one has been completed, the score is ten points, and the current total score is ten points."

Is this hidden mission so simple? If we only find what Mr. Huo wrote when he was young, does that count as a clear investigation? Is it because it has a low score?

"Since finding this thing means completing the hidden mission, I have to find a way for the leader and others to find it."

Lou Xinzhou murmured, and at this moment, there was some noise outside the door, and Lou Xinzhou immediately hid the linen papers under the sheets.

The door opened, and Huo Er walked in with an unhappy look on his face. He first scanned the room and saw that the food on the wooden pier was untouched. He couldn't help but cursed several times.

"Grandma's, it's delicious and delicious. If you don't eat one bite, the ceremony will be three days away. You have to eat even if you don't want to. It will be troublesome if you starve to death." After Huo Er said this, he took Lou Xinzhou and threw it on the tree. In front of Dunzi, "Eat!"

Lou Xinzhou felt vulgar when he heard those words. It was true that Huo Chuqi was Huo Er's daughter, but in the eyes of this man, she seemed not even a human being.

When the cold food entered his mouth, Lou Xinzhou felt an unignorable sadness rising in his heart. His throat seemed to be choked, and there was a bitter taste on the tongue, which slid into his stomach as he swallowed the rice.

"..."

"I'm quite obedient today."

Huo Er glanced at her, then closed the door and went out.

"Lord Lord, are you okay?"

Hearing the chaotic voice, Lou Xinzhou sat up straight and shook his head slightly.

"It's okay. I've completed a task. I'm not happy enough. However, I think I know how to do it. If we want to stop the living sacrifice, the Huo family must die."
