Chapter 73 Pearl You Are The Answer?
Shen Lin was caught off guard and caught Lance's fallen body. With a muffled grunt, he was almost crushed by this man.
What followed was a strong smell of blood. He thought of the hideous wound on Lance's abdomen, and retracted his original intention to push him away. He carefully lifted him up and leaned against him.
Shen Lin: "I'm a doctor."
"Don't be too busy," KP said: "This strange creature that is neither human nor fish has caused a strong visual impact on you, san-check, due to the characteristics of your animal trainer, the number of Sanity reduction brought by creatures is stable at success 1, failure 3, except for special species."
Shen Lin nodded, the dice on his wrist rolled, and the test was successful. He reduced the san value by 1 point, and then gave Lance a successful medical treatment to help him recover 3 points of physical strength.
He laid the man flat on the beach, looked down at the wound on his waist and abdomen, scales emerged from the outer edge of the claw marks, tightly covering the muscles of his waist and abdomen, exactly the same as the scales on his jawline.
Lance's wound was caused by this strange creature that evolved the same fish scale marks, which means that this creature should have the same origin as the curse caused by the ritual.
Right now, the man's body is almost covered with scales, but fortunately, his breathing is steady and his life is not in danger
Shen Lin turned to look at the "big fish" caught by Lance from the bottom of the sea.
I don't know what this weird thing is. It wandered around the sea cave and was caught by Lance. Combining the rotten fish and rotten shrimp stored in the sea cave and the deep passage leading to the bottom of the sea, he can make a reasonable guess——it was caught by Lance. What Rilla feeds here.
No, not necessarily.
There are many human emotions in the eyes of this half-fish, half-human monster, so Shen Lin suspects that it is not Rila who is feeding this monster, but this monster is leading Rila.
He moved his eyes away from the monster's face and landed on the wound on his leg. Obviously, Lance's bullet hit here to deprive the monster of its freedom. Otherwise, no matter how good a swimmer is in the water, it would be impossible. Go beyond this monster, after all, it has incredible legs and feet, and it has webbed fingers.
Shen Lin pulled out the rope from his bag and tied the monster into a crab.
The monster roared, talking nonsense in a language that he didn't understand.
He looked at the monster more carefully.
"Over investigation."
Another great success made Shen Rin discover that although the monster's nails were sharp, they were curled and forked, and some were even so soft that they would break when folded; When threatening, there is something pitiful and funny that cannot be described; there seem to be two drooping sacs on the chest, which are not protruding, and can be said to be flat and dry. At first, Shen Rin thought it was some kind of pattern on the scales. Now it seems that, This monster should be an elderly female.
There was a human look in her eyes, especially when Shen Lin was observing her, she was also carefully observing Shen Lin.
Shen Lin took another look at the wound on her leg, and asked KP: "Can I treat her wound?"
"……you sure?"
"Difficult or extremely difficult?"
"No, just ordinary."
"Yes, this proves that the monster's physique is biased towards humans, so there is no need to make a difficult check." Shen Lin nodded in satisfaction.
kp: "..." Am I being scammed again!
He took out a knife, alcohol for disinfection and other utensils from his bag. Although it was difficult for Shen Rin to deal with the wound, Mei Li, played by Shen Rin, was familiar with it.
Shen Lin whispered to the monster: "I will help you take out the bullet in your leg, and then stop the bleeding, maybe, forget it, it must be very painful, bear with it."
The monster tried to struggle, but his arms and legs were bound together, which prevented him from doing so.
She stared at Shen Rin, and let out a series of low growls.
Shen Lin turned her over without raising her head, and folded her legs to expose the bloody holes on her legs: "This is a notice, not a discussion. Don't bother, it's useless."
After he was ready, he began to treat her wounds. The dice on his wrists rolled, and a green light appeared. Everything went well. Shen Lin took out the two 9mm bullets that Lance shot into the monster's body, and helped the monster recover 2 points of physical strength.
When all these are done, the sky will be white, and the sea level will be bright golden. The morning of St. Leon's song is so beautiful that people can forget all their troubles.
Shen Lin took a long breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He turned his head and met Lance's staring gaze. He didn't know when he woke up, and he was looking at himself thoughtfully.
Mr. Magician's pupils are reflected in the morning sun, and the red pupils are like another round of rising sun, which contains everything in the world, and the most clear one is Shen Lin's appearance.
Lance's appearance is so good, Shen Rin looked unnatural to him, and coughed lightly: "How do you feel? I just gave you a rough treatment, and you have to see a doctor."
Lance nodded slightly.
"Okay, let's talk about it," Shen Lin asked him, "How did you catch this big fish?"
Lance was silent, he coughed palely.
He spoke slowly, his voice unexpectedly hoarse: "I..."
"Okay," Shen Lin interrupted him, "you can rest, wait until you go back to see the doctor."
Lance shook his head, and said succinctly: "She was enshrined here by Rila, and she was Bai Nuo's last great elder."
This sentence successfully angered the monster, and she roared sharply, speaking urgently and quickly.
Shen Lin: "I want to use the characteristics of an animal trainer to communicate with it."
kp: "Zooology over Difficulties."
The dice on Shen Lin's wrist rolled out green light, success.
In the monster's long string of words, Shen Lin gradually understood a few words.
She said: "You have destroyed the great sea god sacrifice, offended the sea god, the world will be destroyed because of you. You have killed Rilla, you are ignorant and despicable human beings! The gods will wake up from the sleeping underground palace , it will bring punishment and punish everyone! You, you—" She glanced past Shen Lin and Lance, finally fixed on the distant sea behind Shen Lin, and said solemnly, "And I... all have to die."
Shen Lin: "..."
Seeing that she can still say such orderly words proves that this species has a certain IQ and can communicate. Since it can communicate, it is the best.
Shen Lin said: "Hello, Elder Bai Nuo, we have learned about the Sea God Sacrifice in Rila's room. We are making atonement and finding the sinner who destroyed the sacrificial ceremony. But you blame all these sins on us The head really wronged us. Without our knowledge, Rilla packaged this ceremony as a game to trick us into participating, not to mention that Lance and I are not fraudsters."
He paused, squatted down, and looked at the monster. He smiled slightly, showing a strange and mysterious smile: "What's more, I just got the revelation from the gods, and the lord gave me a new direction."
kp: "..."
The Great Elder didn't believe what Shen Rin said.
Shen Lin said: "I saw a dark sea area, a huge reef extending from the bottom of the sea, with the footprints of gods on it, and shadows lurking below the sea level. It is not only the believer of the gods, but also the messenger of the gods, and moreover God's executioner."
Shen Rin: "Excellent speaking skills."
Meili's character card has 35 speech skills, and the result of the test will pop up after the dice is rolled——
35/20, success.
The Great Elder showed a puzzled look, and she began to waver.
Shen Lin continued: "I have cleared myself of being a fraudster, and the stone pillar representing me in the sacrificial ceremony has collapsed."
At this point, the Great Elder completely believed Shen Rin's words.
Shen Lin asked Lance: "Can you still move?"
Lance nodded. He wanted to stand up, but in order to capture the Great Elder, he had expended too much physical strength. Coupled with the dull pain in his waist and abdomen wounds, he couldn't use his strength for a while.
Shen Lin went up to help him, and held Lance's arm to support him.Lance looked down at him. The boy's side face was clean and beautiful without a single flaw. Lance couldn't help but smiled and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
Shen Lin frowned: "What are you laughing at?"
Lance said with emotion: "It's nothing, this scene seems very familiar."
Shen Lin: "..."
Shen Lin said angrily: "This gentleman who is gay, do you know that this kind of behavior can be counted as flirting?"
Lance said again, "Sorry."
After a while, he said again: "I haven't told anyone."
Shen Lin: "..."
Lance: "Only you."
Shen Lin: "..."
Shen Lin turned his face away, he felt his ears were hot red: "Why are you telling me this?"
Lance was about to speak again, but Shen Linmiao interrupted: "Shut up."
Lance smiled and said in a low voice, "Okay."
Shen Lin helped him into the cave, found a reef that didn't pierce his butt, and let him sit down, then went out and brought in the elder who was tied into a "crab".
Enduring the stench, he took out the stored rotten fish and rotten shrimp, and fed the Great Elder until his stomach was full.
The Great Elder who regained some strength began to tell the details about the Sea God Ceremony. Surprisingly, she used the common language of St. Leon's song, with a subtle accent.
"The book you saw in Rilla's room was written by a traveler. When he came to Bainuo just in time for the Sea God Festival, he recorded the scene of our ceremony. The real Sea God Festival is almost the same as he described. The only The difference is that those who really dive into the sea are a group of tribesmen who have returned to their ancestors, and they will stay in the depths of the sea for at least a month, waiting for God's will."
"Bai Nuo is the offspring of the believers of the gods and humans. As time goes by, the number of times he combines with humans increases. The sacred blood in our bodies is constantly diluted, and only a small number of people will experience atavism. Their body It will show the characteristics of fish, which is a gift from the gods and a mark of the gods. Everyone who shows the most characteristics will become the pilot who leads the fishing village. I am the last generation of pilots, and I am also the great elder in your mouth."
"Sixty years ago, a human aristocrat passed by a fishing village by chance, just in time for the Sea God Festival, and he participated in the Sea God Festival. In the ceremony of exchanging wishes with the gods in secret, just like yours, someone lied and became a betrayal of the ceremony. Or, all the villagers who participated in the ceremony have become marked people, if the fraudster is not found before the end of the Sea God Festival, all the marked people will be pulled into the bottom of the sea by the executioner, and the sea god's angry flood will submerge the entire fishing village."
"The nobleman is also one of them, but his methods are very cruel. In order to catch the fraudsters, he sacrificed all the villagers who participated in the game as sacrifices. He removed the scales from all the villagers who participated in the game. Cut off their fins and webs, tore their gills, and burned down the fishing village. Rila took me to escape there, and became a lucky survivor. She hid me in this sea cave, waiting Celebrating the New Year's Sea God Festival."
"But she also died, and she failed to fulfill her wish."
"Wait, you mean Rila—" Shen Lin quickly figured out, "Rilla is at least 60 years old? She still looks like a girl."
"Yes," the Great Elder nodded, "Our family has a longer lifespan than ordinary people, and 60 years old is still a child."
"Then how long have you lived?" Shen Lin asked.
"It's been too long," the Great Elder said blankly, "I've lived for too long...my internal organs have begun to rot, and sometimes I sit quietly on the reef at night, as if I can hear the voice of the sea god calling me. I went to enshrine it, but I still..."
She stopped at this point, and then switched back to the original topic, saying: "At that time, we didn't know how to verify who was a liar. Some people said that he saw the same miracle as you, but He was soon drowned in the sea as a sacrifice, and he was not able to obtain more information."
"You are lucky," she said, looking at Shen Rin with old and cloudy eyes, "A traitor also appeared among you, and on the night Rila died, I got a revelation from the gods. Children, what do you say That’s right, your life is engraved on the huge stone pillar, and the omniscient Sea God stares at your life with his omnipresent eyes. Your words and deeds are all under his planning. You have cleared your suspicion, so now—— "
She closed her eyes and sang something in a language that Shen Lin and the others could not understand. She had a fascinating singing voice, just like the sirens described in fairy tales. When the strings trembled, all creatures who heard their singing They can't escape their control, even birds will fall and land on their shoulders willingly.
kp: "You two have a will."
Both failed.
Shen Lin & Lance: "..."
kp: "oh shit."
Although he often listened to Audelina sing, Shen Rin still couldn't resist the magic power in the singing. He gradually sank into the fantasy dream created by the great elder.
Similarly, Lance, who wears the same style of windbreaker all year round and lives only with magic and eating and drinking, fell in love with the melody as soon as it sounded, and he was soon immersed in the singing, like a dream.
The eyes of the two became more and more blurred, and the world fell into an empty whiteness.
The heavy sound of the surging tide rang in my ears.
……
When I opened my eyes again, the sky outside was bright.The sky was completely lit up, and the bustling sound of the seafood market in the distant port wafted over with the wind. The faint human voice made them feel like they were having a dream.
Shen Lin hurriedly went to check on the Great Elder, as expected, the ground was empty, only the cut rope, he guessed that the Great Elder manipulated them to cut the rope that bound him.
When she lowered her head to pick up the rope, Shen Lin found a string of pearls on her wrist.
There are seven pearls in total, one of which is dark red, and the remaining six are very plump and round in color, but under the special light, one can vaguely see the protruding and lifeless patterns like fish eyes inside.
kp: "Merry, you have to do some intelligence first."
Shen Lin made a successful throw test.
kp: "Inspiration again."
He did it again.
The elder's voice clearly sounded in his mind: Every pearl is a chance to ask the sea god for directions. There are six of you in total, seven chances in total, and only one chance of trial and error.When the beads are used, they will appear dark red.
The method of use is very simple. When you want to use pearl verification, just rub the surface of the pearl and say silently:
Lord of the Abyss;
Caress my brow with your mighty webbed arms;
I beg you;
I beseech your scales to grant me truth;
I pray that you who stand high on the reef will give me enlightenment;
These words were deeply imprinted in Shen Lin's mind like a knife and an axe.
He raised his eyebrows and rubbed one of them with interest: "Try?"
Lance asked, "Do you have an answer?"
"Aren't you the answer?"
Shen Lin silently recited the prayers in his mind, rubbing the round pearls repeatedly with his fingertips, his inner pupils gradually turned towards one place, the chaotic colors in front of his eyes exploded, and then countless black mud washed down. Seven times, he returned to the endless barren sea.
A huge reef stands in the middle of the tide.
There were only five of the six stone pillars that surrounded it. Shen Lin observed it, and the stone pillar that symbolized Mei Li's animal trainer was gone.
Standing at the top of the magician's stone pillar that symbolized Lance, he chanted in a deep voice in the howling sea wind: "Magician Lance, his secret is that he has a homosexuality, and he is not a fraud."
As the voice fell, the shadows hovering around the Lance stone pillar gradually dissipated, and the stone pillar Shen Lin was standing on collapsed.
At the moment of the collapse, Shen Lin returned to the real world.
He raised his wrist to look, and the pearl he was rubbing between his fingers turned a dull red.
"The reaction is the same as my previous one," Shen Lin calculated. "This is enough to prove that if it is true, the stone pillar mark will collapse. So, what secret will the rest of you have?"
At present, the conclusions they have obtained from the first round of evidence search are:
Clown Donner, the secret is to kill the cheating wife;
Acrobat Brian, whose secret is a penchant for courting prostitutes;
The soothsayer Calvin had an affair with the noble lady and had a child;
The opera singer Audrey Na, what does not match her elegant image is that she has too much body hair;
These secrets vary in severity, some are related to habits, some are enough to be arrested and imprisoned, some may damage one's reputation, and some may lose one's life.
Who is lying and what is their secret?
Lance said suddenly: "In order to catch the fraudsters, the nobles sacrificed all the villagers in the fishing village. Is it possible that the same situation will happen between us?"
Shen Lin frowned and nodded seriously.
It is indeed possible.
Sacrificing all suspects to the gods can also satisfy the requirements of poetry and seek forgiveness from the gods.
What followed was a strong smell of blood. He thought of the hideous wound on Lance's abdomen, and retracted his original intention to push him away. He carefully lifted him up and leaned against him.
Shen Lin: "I'm a doctor."
"Don't be too busy," KP said: "This strange creature that is neither human nor fish has caused a strong visual impact on you, san-check, due to the characteristics of your animal trainer, the number of Sanity reduction brought by creatures is stable at success 1, failure 3, except for special species."

Standing at the top of the magician's stone pillar that symbolized Lance, he chanted in a deep voice in the howling sea wind: "Magician Lance, his secret is that he has a homosexuality, and he is not a fraud."
As the voice fell, the shadows hovering around the Lance stone pillar gradually dissipated, and the stone pillar Shen Lin was standing on collapsed.
At the moment of the collapse, Shen Lin returned to the real world.
He raised his wrist to look, and the pearl he was rubbing between his fingers turned a dull red.
"The reaction is the same as my previous one," Shen Lin calculated. "This is enough to prove that if it is true, the stone pillar mark will collapse. So, what secret will the rest of you have?"
At present, the conclusions they have obtained from the first round of evidence search are:
Clown Donner, the secret is to kill the cheating wife;
Acrobat Brian, whose secret is a penchant for courting prostitutes;
The soothsayer Calvin had an affair with the noble lady and had a child;
The opera singer Audrey Na, what does not match her elegant image is that she has too much body hair;
These secrets vary in severity, some are related to habits, some are enough to be arrested and imprisoned, some may damage one's reputation, and some may lose one's life.
Who is lying and what is their secret?
Lance said suddenly: "In order to catch the fraudsters, the nobles sacrificed all the villagers in the fishing village. Is it possible that the same situation will happen between us?"
Shen Lin frowned and nodded seriously.
It is indeed possible.
Sacrificing all suspects to the gods can also satisfy the requirements of poetry and seek forgiveness from the gods.
