Chapter 25 Strange Fishing Village
Chapter 25 Strange Fishing Village
Fortunately, although Hu Wenxu is a scientific research lunatic, he is not a fool. The mermaid is now on his side. Dissecting a mermaid is basically a waste of time. For the sake of a tree, it is impossible to give up the entire forest. died on a tree.
Hu Wenxu, who had cooled down from his research desire, returned to the image of the indifferent cultivator at the beginning. He only talked to Lu Li occasionally, explaining some basic common sense of experiments, and so on. It seemed that he really wanted to train Lu Li. become his assistant.
With the help of the mermaid, the small boat was fast, and when it was close to dusk, you could already see land ahead, but at this moment, the mermaid suddenly let go of the boat, came out of the water and said, "That's not our territory anymore. , approaching will cause conflict, and the rest of the journey will depend on yourselves..."
After finishing speaking, the mermaid turned underwater and disappeared after a few wagging tails. This mermaid really doesn't show face at all, or this is the basic attitude of mermaids towards humans. According to Lu Li, if the mermaid princess didn't order this Only the mermaid helped, and the mermaid probably wouldn't even look at Lu Li and the others.
"We have no choice but to do it ourselves. It's best to reach the shore before dark." Xu Haoran said seriously, then picked up one of the built-in oars, and started to take the lead. Lu Li and the others didn't want to be on this boat. After staying for a long time, he also started to paddle.
As the saying goes, Wangshan ran a dead horse, and the shore was very close to here, but in fact there was a considerable distance. In addition, Lu Li and the others had never really rowed a boat, although their physical fitness was much stronger than normal people, but In fact, their rowing speed is very different from the speed driven by the mermaid. They originally expected to arrive before dark, but in fact, it was already dark for a long time when they reached the shore, and the small fishing village on the shore was also completely dark. There were no lights.
Stepping on the shore, the down-to-earth feeling made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. After all, the feeling of floating on the sea is not good, and thinking of the existence of some super-standard existence on the bottom of the sea, the seemingly calm sea is much more. cast a shadow on top.
This small fishing village is not big, there are only about 20 households, and there are fishing nets hanging on the shelves to dry. It is so quiet here, there is not even a snoring sound, which makes people wonder if there is no one here.
Night heralds danger, Xu Haoran and Gao Xiaowen discussed for a while, out of respect for scientists? After asking Hu Wenxu's opinion, he roughly guided Lu Li and made a decision to rest in this fishing village for one night.
Looking at the dark fishing village, everyone took all the things prepared by the mermaid princesses on the boat, and then knocked on the doors of each house. Some of these houses were empty, and some were occupied, but after knocking on the door, it was obvious that they could They heard movement inside, but the people inside refused to open the door. It was difficult for Lu Li and the others to break in. They yelled some good things, but the people inside didn't respond.
"We are travelers in shipwreck, please let us stay for one night, please? We can pay the rent..." Xu Haoran knocked on a door again, and heard the sound of rubbing inside, the door finally opened, opened the door It is an old woman.
"Traveler? Shipwreck? I have lived by the sea for so many years, and I know from the weather that there will be no storms in this sea area recently. If you lie to others, find a better reason." It may be that she has lived by the sea for many years, and the old woman is hunched over. His body was dark, his voice was ugly, and he spoke very rudely, but he finally let Lu Li and the others in. The room was divided into inside and out, and there were some old furniture.
"My old woman might die one day, and I have nothing for you to covet." The old woman said with a weird smile on her face: "This village doesn't welcome outsiders, you'd better leave tomorrow morning, or you might be killed." something happened."
"Grandma, do you live here alone? Where's your family?" Gao Xiaowen asked curiously, and then saw the old woman say strangely: "This village is very xenophobic, and everyone in this village has been cursed. When you reach a certain age, you will either die in a shipwreck or disappear inexplicably. I have been married to this village for decades, and I have basically never seen a villager who has lived past the age of 50."
"My husband and son disappeared when they were 30 years old. This is an unknown place, so you should leave as soon as possible, no matter what your origins are..." The old woman turned around and entered the inner room after she finished speaking in a strange way. The house was handed over to Lu Li and the others.
"This village is weird, maybe it can trigger side missions." Seeing the old woman enter the inner room, Xu Haoran found a small wooden stool and sat down. In the darkness, there was no expression on his face: "Should we go?" Explore..."
"No need, the side missions are too time-consuming, and this dungeon has an out-of-standard existence. Maybe some strange things will leak from that existence at any time, and it will cause a mutation in the event." Gao Xiaowen said This time, Xu Haoran's proposal was rejected, obviously because he had lingering fears about the existence outside the specification.
"Alright, then leave here early tomorrow morning, go to the target on the map, and look for the witch." Xu Haoran nodded and said, then leaned his back against the wall and remembered something, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Lu Li officially began to ask Hu Wenxu for advice on how to conduct the experiment. Hu Wenxu did not know where to pull out a mouse, a knife and a small flashlight, and gave a basic explanation, how to peel the skin, how to disassemble the muscle, how to avoid the arteries, how to remove the internal organs. Completely stripped out and so on a series of knowledge.
Finally, Hu Wenxu disassembled the mouse. It was already late at night. Turning off the flashlight, the house was pitch black. Everyone was silent and went to rest. Lu Li also closed his eyes and began to sink into the darkness, feeling his body. There is already no small scale of shadow magic inside.
Most of the players will have some special energy after one or two dungeons, but the player basically cannot control these energies, and can only absorb and activate skills through modules, just like in those martial arts novels, those who practice internal skills, who do not It needs to be practiced for ten or eight years, otherwise it will be like Duan Yu, who is not effective at the right time. This is due to Duan Yu's own cultural accomplishment.
However, the player who suddenly acquires these special energies is difficult to even perceive their existence, let alone mobilize them, due to cognitive barriers, so the player can only hope for the skill module, but Lu Li is different. He has a very strong control power, so it is possible for Lu Li to try to mobilize the shadow magic in his body in such a short period of time...
