A transparent old face was beside him, with white hair and beard, which looked familiar.

Seeing Jian Wen turn his head to look at him, the old ghost smiled friendly.

Jian Wen: Isn't this the old ghost he photographed when he photographed the ancestral hall?

Jian Wen forced himself to calm down quickly, exhale, inhale, and take a deep breath.

"who are you?"

The old man opened and closed his mouth to say something, but Jian Wen couldn't hear clearly. His expression was a little painful, and finally he could only quickly touch the beam where Jian Wen was lying on his stomach.

Jian Wen groped one by one, and soon felt a gap on the smooth beam. He knocked, and the place that was two palms long was hollow.

Is it audacious to hollow out the section of the beam, or is it useful?

"here?"

The old man nodded, and made a prying motion with gestures. Jian Wen hesitated for a while, wondering whether this ghost was good or bad, and what his intentions were. What if there was something dangerous hidden inside?

The old man was in a hurry, he couldn't help but squeezed out a few words: "The fish monster prophesies"

Jian Wen didn't feel anything when he heard the "fish monster". Probably everyone in Yujia Village knew the fish monster, but when he heard the "prophecy", he remembered the reminder "Oedipus the King", who came to Yujia Village for so long, Finally found a clue about the prophecy.

Regardless of danger or safety, Jian Wen decided to take a gamble.

He pulled out the saber that Huo Sheng lent him, groped for a gap on the hollow beam, and then pried the edge of the gap with the saber, and there was indeed something hidden in the hollow beam.

A thread-bound book with a blue cover was rolled up and placed inside the beam.Jian Wen touched the thread-bound book and found that the texture was not like paper, but leather.

Jian Wen had a bad guess in his heart, and when he looked up again, the old ghost had quietly disappeared again.

Huo Sheng tugged at his trouser legs again: "What are you doing?"

Jian Wen turned her head and said strangely: "Didn't you see it just now?"

"You speak into the air as if possessed by a demon, and even dug out books from the beams. What happened to you?"

"I met the old ghost in the photo." Jian Wen gestured to him with the thread-bound book in his hand. The two of them were lying on the beam with their heads upside down, and Huo Sheng's head was facing Jian Wen's feet. It was inconvenient for the two of them. Pass something and start climbing down.

Huo Sheng's position was close to the beam, he first backed up and slid down on the beam, and then caught Jian Wen underneath.

He stood under the beam, and Jian Wen hugged the beam like a koala, falling freely from top to bottom. Huo Sheng happened to catch Jian Wen's ass with both hands, and couldn't help but patted it: "The elasticity is good."

Jane Wen:......

Jian Wen touched Huo Sheng's forehead: "You won't be possessed by a ghost, right?"

Huo Sheng took his hand and took the book in his hand: "The old ghost told you?"

"Damn it, it's a personal leather book again." Jian Wen was so disgusted that he wanted to throw away the book in his hand. The human skin of the Academy of Art had already given him a strong psychological shadow, so why did he have a personal leather book again.

Huo Sheng touched it, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and said affirmatively, "It's not human skin, it's fish skin."

"Depend on!"

The fish skin is even worse. If you touch the fish skin, you will be infected and cursed?

Jane Wen didn't get angry, but she was still tricked.

The outside of the fish skin book has a blue cover, and Huo Sheng touched it to confirm that it is hand-dyed indigo, which is more original.The paper inside is relatively normal, just ordinary paper.

"Take it all, let's see what's in it first." Huo Sheng said calmly, "After the game is cleared and left, the curse will be useless."

When things come to this, it can only be like this.

After opening the book, Jian Wen looked at the content recorded in the handwritten calligraphy on the book, and then looked up at the plaque he had just hidden, only to feel that it was a huge irony.

Behind the "Hundred Years of Prosperity" lies a huge killing.

Opening the family tree is full of hunting history.

"On August 1978, 8, the ancestor divination, the oracle revealed that the fish monster will bring about the destruction of the family, and use the power of the gods to catch the fish monster."

"On December 1980, 12, the ancestors teamed up with Yu Bei to capture a huge fish monster and suppress it with divine power."

"On December 1985, 12, the power weakened, and the fish monster showed signs of revival, so we used it again to suppress it."

Here, they saw the names of "Old Ancestor" and "Yu Bei". It is certain that Yu Bei was indeed the victim of the fish monster.But there is another ancestor among them, who will this ancestor be?

The two then looked down.

"In 2005, the fish monster was revived. He came back and took fifteen lives. The people in the village were panicked."

"The oracle revealed in 2009 that we can use divine power to repress again, and we need human sacrifices. The ancestors brought back their girlfriends whom they met in other places as sacrifices."

When they saw this, the two were still puzzled.Who is this mysterious ancestor, why did he prophesy, and why did he know about such a cruel human sacrifice?

From the point of view of time, the killing of the fish monster is not the end. Soon he was resurrected and came back to take revenge.

Jian Wen remembered that Yu Bailu said that Yu Bei ate his heart, since he ate his heart, why can the heart go back?Is it Yu Bei who left and returned to Yu Family Village?

Huo Sheng stretched out his hand and continued to turn the page, the handwritten notes on it became more and more scribbled, and the year became more and more tense.

"In 2013, the power of the fish monster became stronger and stronger, and more and more sacrifices were needed. The ancestor brought back three roommates."

"In 2015, the ancestor brought back his girlfriend from out of town to hold a wedding. At the wedding, all the relatives of the woman were sacrificed. This time the sacrifice was particularly successful. As expected, the more people there are, the longer the suppression will take."

"In 2018, the fish monster showed signs of awakening again. The ancestor was too late to find the sacrifice, and was cursed by backlash. The ancestor left Yujia Village early to look for the sacrifice again."

Seeing this, Jian Wen was in a bad mood.

"When we first came, the village head said that Yu Xia invited us here, will it be?" Jian Wen and Huo Sheng looked at each other, and couldn't help but have a bad feeling, "If Yu Xia is the 'grandfather', Then we are this year's sacrifice?"

Jian Wen couldn't help cursing secretly, "Fuck".

What the hell is this ancestor, cheating marriage, cheating life and cheating classmates, this is the devil, right?

"However, the date recorded on it is very old. If the ancestor can predict it from 1978, the current Yu Xia looks too young. Could it be that the ancestor is actually the village chief?" Jian Wen asked.After all, the age and identity of the village head are more in line with the identity of this ancestor.

"Let's list them all as suspects."

Huo Sheng rubbed his temples, and read through the thread-bound book again, trying to find some details from it.

It's a pity that there is no other information on the thread-bound book, and it is completely impossible for them to find the identity information of the ancestor through the thread-bound book.

The records in the thread-bound book are relatively monotonous, except for the hunting, suppression, and sacrifice time and time again, there is no other information.Even the names of those sacrifices are not recorded at all. Perhaps in their view, these people do not need to write down their names.

Huo Sheng put the thread-bound book back in his own space, which is safer.

Then, the two looked at the coffin on the alcove table at the same time. They glanced at each other, took out the harpoon hidden in the coffin before, and prepared to use it to pry the coffin nails.

Huo Sheng was physically strong, the coffin nails were easily pried open, and a strong smell of blood came over his face.

Qingqing, who was already full, slept with her eyes open in the blood-colored water. When she felt that the coffin lid was opened, she just lazily leaned out of the water to have a look, and then buried her head down without interest.

The indoor light was too dark, so Jian Wen turned on the light on his mobile phone to see.

The phone was in the water tank, and Jian Wen found out that Qingqing took off her clothes and soaked in the water tank.

It's like raising fish, keeping people in water tanks.

Without clothes, they can see through the water surface that Qingqing's limbs are covered with scales, and the colorful light is refracted through the water surface, which has a pearl-like texture. If the water surface is stained with blood, the picture is too weird, and there is an inexplicable feeling. charm.

The dorsal fin on her back has completely grown out, from the cervical vertebrae to the caudal vertebrae, it is long, white and transparent, with sharp bony spurs, and looks somewhat aggressive.

Qingqing had lost half of her humanity at this time, staring at them curiously like a fish, without any sense of shame about not wearing clothes.

Illuminated by the light, Qingqing's eyes suddenly turned red, and he opened his mouth to rush at him threateningly bubbling.

"Turn off the light quickly, fish have phototaxis, light will excite her." Huo Sheng quickly reminded.

The moment Jian Wen turned off the light source, he saw that the green teeth in his mouth had turned into ferocious fangs, and his tongue was gone.

Fish have no tongue, and Qingqing's tongue degenerates after turning into a fish.

After Qingqing was awakened, she swam restlessly in the water tank, opening her mouth to bite from time to time. Jian Wen was prepared to be on guard against being bitten by her jumping up, but she glanced at Huo Sheng in fear from time to time, anxiously He kept swimming without attacking anyone.

It seems that Yu is also bullying and afraid of being tough. Jian Wen is in a complicated mood. It seems that in the eyes of NPCs, the gap between himself and Huo Sheng is very large.

Go back and strengthen the training intensity!

Although this is a coffin with the length of a human being, Qingqing is also very petite and exquisite, but it is not spacious enough. Qingqing swam around and had no place to play, and her limbs bumped against the wall of the water tank from time to time. After getting tired, she curled up and sank to the bottom of the water tank. Sleep underwater.

After Qingqing turns into a fish, she can sleep and breathe underwater like a fish, with bubbles popping out of her nostrils from time to time.

Seeing the human players of the same kind become what they are today, Jian Wen is in a very uncomfortable mood.

I don't know if Qingqing still has a chance to recover her human form, and if she can leave the game alive.

"What about Qingqing?" Jian Wen couldn't bear it.

Huo Sheng thought for a while, then looked at the wall behind him.

It is not realistic to break through the entire wall, but it is still useful to pull out the harpoons in key parts.

After pulling out the harpoons in the heart and lungs, they heard the breathing sound of the fish monster inside. What if they pulled out all of them?

Huo Sheng stepped forward, tilted his head to examine the location, and pulled out the harpoon at the throat.

There was a louder sound of wind coming from behind the wall, and the sound of splashing water waves, like a sea god coughing.

Thoughtful, Jian Wen stepped forward and pulled out the harpoon from his eyes.

One after another, Jian Wen found that as they pulled out more and more harpoons, the sound of water and wind in the wall became louder and louder. He even had the illusion that he was watching a 3D shipwreck movie, listening to What the voice associates in his mind is the earth-shattering tornado at sea.

They plucked out the internal organs of the body and the seven orifices of the head one by one.

In order to avoid being discovered, they collectively pulled out most of the key parts of the harpoon. After pulling it out, they did not directly throw it away, but hung it loosely on the wall, which looked like it was still plugged into the wall.

The harpoons are of different lengths, so pulling them out collectively doesn't seem to be a big problem at first glance.

The most important thing is the silver harpoon inserted in the heart. Jian Wen is a little uncertain whether to insert it back, and whether it will harm the fish monster.

Huo Sheng knocked on the wall: "Let's ask him."

"Dear, the great priest tomorrow night, in order to avoid being discovered, can we insert the silver harpoon back?" Jian Wen was not sure who the fish monster inside belonged to Yu Bailu, so he didn't call him by name directly.

The wall with the hole in the lungs made the sound of wind again. The people inside didn't speak, and a gust of wind accurately rolled back the silver harpoon in Huo Chen's hand, and inserted it into the wall again.

Huo Sheng said in a low voice: "This position is a little bit off, you can't see it unless you look carefully."

Jian Wen nodded, and knocked on the wall again: "Dear, I have a business to discuss with you~~~"

There was still silence in the wall, but a voice as dull as thunder rang directly in Jian Wenwen and Huo Sheng's minds.

"Say."

Jian Wen and Huo Sheng looked at the coffin at the same time

After the matter was settled, the two sneaked out the door.

The village chief locked the ancestral hall before he left, but when the two were still discussing how Huo Sheng could get out of the room to unlock it, they heard a crisp "click" sound from outside, and the lock was opened from the outside.

Then the door creaked and opened in the night, and there was no one behind the door.

"Let's go." Huo Sheng took out his gun and opened the way ahead.

The journey was peaceful, there was no ambush outside the door, and no fish monsters.

They walked out of the ancestral hall and found no suspicious person. Jian Wen accidentally looked down at the water, and found that the river near the ancestral hall seemed to be boiling. The fish inside were extremely excited, swimming around and jumping out of the water.

Huo Sheng suddenly pointed at the sky: "Look."

The sky above the ancestral hall is full of wind and clouds, and the sea of ​​clouds in the dark sky is rolling, forming a huge funnel and pouring down, as if sea water poured down from the sky, forming a silent sea tornado.

"Dragon sucks water." Huo Sheng looked serious, he looked up at the sky, the funnel was gloomy and violent, but the surrounding sky was still peaceful and peaceful.

Everything was going on silently, there were no animals in Yujia Village, and there were no pedestrians at night. At this time, except for the two witnesses, no one else saw this huge and strange situation.

The rare dragon on land did not absorb water for too long, and everything subsided after a while, like a rainbow after rain, and the sky cleared up.

Jian Wen sniffed: "Strange, the air seems to be getting better."

Huo Sheng affirmed, "That's right, the fishy smell is gone."

Before, as long as it was close to the water, there was a strong or light fishy smell. If it touched the curse of fish scales or was close to the fish, the strong fishy smell was even more terrifying than the well-known dark food canned herring.

Especially after twelve o'clock at night, there is a fishy smell in the air, as if an invisible river has spread ashore, and Jane Wen can still feel the discomfort of choking her eyes and getting water into her nose and ears when she is underwater.

Now the air was suddenly clear, and it was like an ordinary country night.

Jian Wen couldn't think of the reason for this strange phenomenon. If the fish monster was revived behind the wall, then the huge fish monster was out of trouble, and the fishy smell should be stronger, right?

Huo Sheng frowned and said nothing.

"Come on, let's go back."

At this time, the moon was already in the sky. I don't know if it was Jian Wen's illusion, but the night sky seemed to be much brighter.The moon is sparse, and the full moon is in the sky. There are already signs of a full fifteenth month.

The villagers were sleeping deeply, unaware of what happened at night, the two of them went back to their room through the window smoothly, and the night passed as soon as they lay down.

When I woke up the next day, it was the fifteenth day of the sacrifice.

While brushing his teeth, Jian Wen wondered if Yu Bailu would come to him again, after all, he hadn't found Yu Bei yet.But Yu Bailu never showed up.

Yu Bailu didn't show up, and the curse that was said to be lurking on Huo Sheng's body didn't break out either. Everything was quiet, with the depression about to come.

Jian Wen thought it would be a day to recharge his batteries and wait for the evening sacrifice to start, but just after eating in the morning, he was attracted by the crying and crying voices of the players.

On the fifteenth day, another player died.

Surprisingly, Jian Wen thought that the female player who caught the fish eye would die, but she didn't expect that the one who died was Chang Qin, a confident young man who had always been confident.

Chang Qin's death was discovered by his companion, the young man wearing black-rimmed glasses.

Jian Wen asked in surprise, "How could it be him?"

They were still suspecting that Chang Qin was the traitor who hid behind the curtain of Tianming, and now he died before the sacrifice started?

The young man with glasses cried and said: "Brother Qin said that he suspected that Yu Xia had turned into a fish monster, and wanted to see what happened to Yu Xia's gauze-wrapped legs. We went to the village chief's house together last night."

Huo Sheng stared at the young man with glasses, his eyes were deep and researching.

Jian Wen sighed, "You guys are really brave."

Huo Sheng asked, "Did you see anything?"

"When we went yesterday, Yu Xia's two legs were already wrapped together, from feet to thighs. Brother Qin asked us to hold Yu Xia down, and he cut open the gauze with a knife, and then we saw" the young man with glasses excited Said, "Seeing that Yu Xia's two legs have grown together and are covered with fish scales!"

Jane asked abruptly, "A mermaid?"

The originally horrifying atmosphere was transformed into a fairy tale style by Jian Wen's three words.

"No! It's a fish monster! It's a fish monster!" The other follower, who hadn't recovered from his panic for a long time, was finally stimulated, and screamed with dancing and dancing.

"Yu Xia's mouth was very wide open, her whole head turned into a fish head, and she bit Brother Qin's head in her mouth with one bite! We dragged Brother Qin out with great difficulty, and Brother Qin's face was already dissolved. "

"We didn't dare to say anything, so we used medical tools to secretly place Brother Qin down. We thought he would be fine today, but we didn't expect Brother Qin to come to see him this morning."

The little follower even cried aggrieved while talking.

Jian Wen was deeply incredulous. With that oily Chang Qin's arrogant attitude, could it be that he has some unknown personality charm that made his little follower have such deep feelings for him?

The most important thing is that they only met in the game. If they were old players who met in real life, they would not be so exaggerated.

A player hesitated and said, "Could it be that Yu Xia killed Chang Qin?"

The young man with glasses said excitedly: "The former players must have been eaten by Yu Xia, and he invited us to Yu's Village because he had no good intentions!"

Another little follower wiped his tears and snot and turned into an avenging warrior: "We want to avenge Brother Qin!"

"Kill Yu Xia, and we will know the truth about Yu Family Village!"

"It's unrealistic to kill Yu Xia, and it will anger the village chief and the villagers. Why don't we go to the ancestral hall in advance, so as not to be too passive at night." At this time, the young man with glasses finally expressed his true intention.

Huo Sheng has been observing Tianming, with his arms folded around his chest, standing in the corner without saying a word.

Sensing Huo Sheng's gaze, Tianming echoed with a cold smile: "You're right, we'll split up when it's safer during the day."

"A team of players diverts the attention of the surrounding villagers, and a team of players sneaks in. I have seen that the gate of the ancestral hall is open during the day, and the surrounding villagers spontaneously guard it, so it is safe."

Tianming's words moved the hearts of many players.

They have collected some clues more or less now, but there is an invisible barrier before revealing the truth.

The ancestral hall, which has been mentioned by the village chief and villagers from the very beginning, must be the most critical place.

"Yes, the two of us are going together." The young man with glasses yelled, already talking about the route with Tianming.

Tian Ming suddenly looked at Jian Wen and said, "Where are you two, do you want to be together?"

"No need." Jian Wen refused, and Huo Sheng was even more straightforward, turning his head and leaving in a boring way.

The young man with glasses threatened: "In this way, the clues we have worked so hard to obtain will not be shared with you."

Jane Wen shrugged: "It doesn't matter."

They got the most important clues last night, so they don't need to follow this large army that obviously has problems.

The two left without giving any face, and Jian Wen felt that there was a line of sight closely following behind them, with malicious prying eyes.

Jian Wen turned around abruptly, just in time to meet Tianming's gaze, which he had no time to put away. Tianming forced out a smirk, and Jian Wen raised his middle finger at him.

Tianming: ...

Jian Wen snorted coldly and left happily.

No matter what Tianming's mood is now, anyway, he himself is happy.

After the two returned to their residence, they did not go to other places to inquire. They recharged their energy, ate and rested, and waited for the arrival of the sacrifice at night.

At the same time, neither Yu Bailu nor the little fish monster appeared, and the calmness of Yujia Village made people feel creepy.

Huo Sheng took the thread-bound book and studied it again, trying to see if there was any password hidden in it.

Jian Wen looked out from the window from time to time. From his position, he could see the residences of other players.

From morning to afternoon, Jian Wen never saw the players coming back on the road, only two or three villagers.

The moon showed a face in the gray sky, but Jian Wen still didn't see the player.

"Could something have happened to them?"

"Annihilation?" Huo Sheng walked to the window, "There are three pure rookies in this round, as well as an intern player like you. Logically speaking, the difficulty would not be so difficult. It may be that the group was trapped."

Waited until dark, and none of the players came back.It seems that the only remaining players are the two of them.

As it got later and later, Jian Wen found that the village was getting quieter and quieter.

It was dark, and none of the houses were lit.

Jian Wenwen and Huo Sheng searched for it, and found that the house was empty, the owner had disappeared, and the door was locked from the outside.

"Don't let us go out, what does that mean?" Jian Wen couldn't figure it out, isn't it safer indoors, even white fish at night can't enter indoors.

Huo Sheng thought for a while: "Since the master wants to protect us like this, then obey his kindness and go back to sleep."

Not only do they have to sleep, but they also go back to each room as usual, sleeping very peacefully and comfortably.

Jian Wen smiled comprehensibly, thinking of their deal with the mysterious creature behind the wall, she became more confident in passing the level smoothly.

Now we only need an opportunity, waiting to send someone to your door.

Today's night in Yujia Village is truly dead silent, there are no animals, and there is no one else except them.

It's like a dead village forgotten and abandoned by the world, with no vitality and danger everywhere, only two stupid and bold living creatures.

As soon as Jian Wen touched the pillow, he fell asleep. In his sleep, he felt a faint gaze staring at him from the side of the bed, but he didn't wake up.

After an unknown amount of time, Jian Wen woke up and wanted to go to the bathroom at night.

Just standing on the ground, he felt cold in his feet.

When did his slippers get wet?

Jian Wen was still in a daze at this moment, suddenly a pair of pale hands stretched out from under the bed and grabbed his ankles!

The icy cold feeling made Jian Wen wake up instantly, and all drowsiness was gone.

Before Jian Wen had time to call Huo Sheng, his whole body was savagely pulled by those hands, and he was dragged under the bed weakly. He only had time to see a pair of familiar eyes before he completely lost consciousness.
