Chapter 124 Long Sword

After the mosquitoes swarmed away, Lin Qiushi and the others left the restaurant. However, as soon as they came out, they found some flying mosquitoes in the corridor. These mosquitoes flapped their wings and formed a light black line in the air, leading to an unknown room.

This is probably the meaning of the line. Lin Qiushi originally thought it would be more complicated, but he did not expect Ruan Nanzhu to make a mistake and get the correct answer directly. He glanced at Ruan Nanzhu and said, "Would you like to follow along?"

"Okay." Ruan Nanzhu glanced at the time and determined that it was still early, "Let's go."

After they finished speaking, they followed the direction pointed by the mosquitoes and headed for the location of the house.

Every five minutes, the position of the house changes, and the mosquitoes indicate different directions at this time, they are suspended in mid-air, one after another connected together. Lin Qiushi and the others followed the direction pointed by the mosquitoes, but soon, he discovered something was wrong—the mosquitoes were actually divided into two groups at a certain location, one group facing left and one group facing right, pointing to in different directions.

"How could this be?" Gu Longming was dumbfounded when he saw the forked mosquito in front of him. He grabbed a mosquito and trapped it in his palm. When he let go, it quickly returned to where he was originally. Location, "Why are these mosquitoes bifurcated, don't they..."

He wanted to understand something. He glanced at Lin Qiushi with an ugly face, "Could it be that there are two monsters?"

This seemed to be the only answer, but Lin Qiushi always felt that things were not that simple, he said, "Let's take a look?"

Ruan Nanzhu pondered for a while: "Okay, Gu Longming will follow you to the left, and I will go to the right."

Lin Qiushi nodded, and did not argue with Ruan Nanzhu, but told Ruan Nanzhu that if he found something abnormal, don't force it. This time, he mainly focused on collecting information.

When Ruan Nanzhu heard Lin Qiushi's earnest advice, he couldn't help but smile: "My family Lin Lin has really grown up, and it's really gratifying to be at the age to worry about me."

Lin Qiushi: "...I'm serious."

"Okay, I know you're serious." He came over and kissed Lin Qiushi's lips naturally, "I'll be careful, see you later."

Lin Qiushi waved at him: "See you later."

Just as the two of them were talking, the surrounding environment changed again, and the location they were leading to before changed again. This time, the place where the mosquito pointed seemed to be the cabin on the bottom floor.

Lin Qiushi and Gu Longming did not dare to delay any longer, and trot forward all the way, trying to find the room indicated by Mosquito before the room changed again.

The two were very fast, and it took half the time to find the room on the ground floor to which the mosquito pointed. The human-faced mosquitoes flying in mid-air arrived in this room and put a layer on the door. Lin Qiushi smelled a strong fishy smell as soon as he got close to it.

The smell was too strong, and it was similar to what they smelled in the room that time. People couldn't help but suspect that the huge murloc monster they saw last night was locked in the room in front of them.

After Lin Qiushi approached the house, he didn't try to enter in a hurry, but put his ear to the door panel and listened carefully to the sound in the house. The room was very quiet, as if there were no living creatures, but Lin Qiushi still heard something strange. There was a slight breathing sound from the door... This breathing sound was so close to him, it seemed that the things inside were only a door away from him. .

Gu Longming stood at the window and looked in. He seemed to see something through the thick darkness. His face changed slightly and he took two steps back. He pointed to Lin Qiushi and pointed to the room, nodding in horror to indicate that there was something inside.

Lin Qiushi got up and looked at the window.

Through the gaps in the curtains, he saw a pair of yellow eyes hidden in the darkness. They belonged to fish. The pupils were a standard circle, and the whites of the eyes were bright yellow. At this time, he was using malicious eyes. Peeking out the door.

The eyes of the thing moved slowly, and it seemed that he found someone standing outside the door. Lin Qiushi saw it slowly open its mouth, which was filled with dense white teeth and a blue tongue emitting a faint light. .

wait...yellow eyes? Lin Qiushi held his breath. He felt as if he had caught something. He quickly took out his mobile phone and turned on the lighting function, and then projected the light through the curtains.

The light shone into the house, and Lin Qiushi finally saw what was in the house. It was an indescribable creature, at least Lin Qiushi had never seen it before.

It has a huge fish head and a fragile human body. Because the fish head is too large and heavy, it cannot stand upright at all. The slender body that does not match the head can only lie on the ground, and the most eye-catching Yes, it was the long spike on the top of its head. The spike looked sharp and sharp... It reminded Lin Qiushi of the long sword that killed Minotaur in the myth.

The murloc was attracted by the strong light held by Lin Qiushi, and there was a strange roar from his mouth. Gu Longming looked at its strange appearance, touched his arm involuntarily, and forced a smile: "What the hell is this?"

"What we saw in the room at first seemed to be this mermaid." Lin Qiushi said, "Do you still need those yellow eyes in the room?"

Gu Longming nodded, indicating that he remembered.

Speaking of yellow eyes, he was a little surprised. The eyes of the man-eating murloc were not yellow, but were uncomfortably pale, but this detail could easily become blurred under the shocking picture. After being reminded by Lin Qiushi, he vaguely remembered it. .

"So there are two monsters?" Gu Longming swallowed, "Then the function of this monster is..." He moved his eyes to the sharp spikes on the top of the monster's head, and said the same idea as Lin Qiushi. "Is it a long sword?"

Lin Qiushi said, "You can guess like that."

At least for now, they haven't found anything else suitable on the ship that looks like a weapon. In fact, the moment he saw the appearance of the murloc in front of him, a similar guess appeared in Lin Qiushi's mind, and Gu Longming obviously thought of it with him.

The sound of the conversation between the two seemed to stimulate the monster inside, and it began to crawl around the house a little irritably, and its twisted appearance looked grotesque and terrifying.

Lin Qiushi saw its irritable appearance, but had a bad premonition, so he grabbed Gu Longming and took a few steps back.

As soon as the two of them stepped back, a sharp thorn appeared on the sturdy wooden wall in front of them. Obviously, something in the room used the thorn on the top of their head to pierce the wall abruptly. There were several holes left in the wall - one can imagine how painful it would have been if they hadn't retreated just now and were unfortunately stabbed by the spikes.

However, just after Lin Qiushi determined the identities of the things in the room, the time for the room to change just arrived. The room in front of them disappeared and was replaced by another ordinary bedroom, and the direction of the mosquitoes also changed. position, moved to the deck.

Gu Longming felt disgusted when he thought about the appearance of this fish. In fact, before he came to this door, he liked to eat fish, but under the influence of the fishy smell in the past few days, now he thinks of the smell of fish, and his conditioned reflex is nauseated. I am afraid Even if you leave this door, you have to maintain a state of disgust when you see fish for a long time.

Lin Qiushi said: "Go, go to Zhumeng to see."

Gu Longming nodded.

The two left the cabin at the bottom, and when they went up, they saw Ruan Nanzhu standing on the deck, looking at the dark water with his head up, and turned around when they heard their footsteps: "What did you find?"

Lin Qiushi said: "We seem to have found the long sword."

Ruan Nanzhu's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Found it?"

Lin Qiushi nodded and briefly described what they saw, emphasizing that he saw a long thorn on the head of the murloc monster. The thorn looked strong and sharp and seemed to be a good attacking weapon. .

And Ruan Nanzhu said that in the room he looked for, he saw the huge murloc who ate people last night.

"But how are we going to kill that murloc." Gu Longming crouched on the deck and ate the candy Lin Qiushi gave him in dejection, saying, "I don't think that thing is any better than the murloc monster we saw before. deal with it."

The most worrying thing about the wound is not the width but the depth. Once the wound is deep, it will be difficult to heal, especially on this ship that lacks medical treatment. It is conceivable to be stabbed by that sharp long thorn. Died of complications such as tetanus in a few days.

Ruan Nanzhu listened to Gu Longming's concerns and comforted him, saying don't worry, when the time comes, everyone will give you a good time.

Gu Longming: "...I still can't, thank you."

Lin Qiushi felt that this was a paradox. They had to kill the yellow-eyed murloc before they could kill the Minotaur who represented the monster. But now the problem has arisen, how do they kill the yellow-eyed murloc? Take the knife in the restaurant and get hard with that thing?

The three of them were discussing how to start, but they heard a loud noise from the location of the restaurant, which was mixed with human exclamations and painful screams.

Hearing this sound, they knew that something must have happened again. Lin Qiushi gave Ruan Nanzhu a look, turned and went to the restaurant. Before entering, they smelled a strong smell of blood. Lin Qiushi looked down and found blood dripping on the floor. An injured man was lying on the floor inside the restaurant, covering the wound on his abdomen with his hands. The wound seemed to be very deep, and it was bulging out with bright red blood.

Gu Longming stepped forward a few steps and said, "What's going on? How could you be injured?" He took off his jacket, used it as a gauze and began to skillfully treat the wounds of the injured, as if he wanted to help the man stop the bleeding.

Looking at his actions, Lin Qiushi had some guesses about the profession outside Gu Longming's door.

"He found that the mosquitoes were pointing in certain directions outside, so we went over to take a look." It was the man's partner who spoke. As a bystander, he witnessed the whole process of his friend's injury. His voice trembled. With a trembling voice, "But when we got there, a long thorn came out of the room and stabbed him directly in the body."

Gu Longming frowned: "The situation is not very good, it seems that the kidney has been stabbed." There are no medical supplies around them that can be used. Based on this amount of blood, it is estimated that this person may...

A girl next to me said, "I brought a hemostatic spray, can I use it?"

"Try it for me." Gu Longming said, "You can only use a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

He tried his best to bind the man's body to reduce the amount of bleeding from the wound, and then sprayed most of the hemostatic spray to stop the gushing blood.

"What is it that stabbed your friend?" When someone saw that the situation had stabilized, they turned their attention to the person who was still alive.

"Looks like a fish," the survivor replied, "I'm not sure... just glanced at it and something happened."

"Let's go take a look too." Everyone was obviously more interested in this fish, and left the restaurant one after another.

After a while, there were only a few scattered people left in the restaurant.

"How is it? Is there any help for my friend?" The man asked Gu Longming eagerly.

Gu Longming sighed and said: "Going out early may be saved, but..." It's not that they can leave here if they want.

So everyone quieted down, Gu Longming looked at the blood in his hands and said, "I'll go wash my hands first." He got up and went to the toilet.

The breath of the person who was stabbed in the abdomen became weaker and weaker. Although Gu Longming tried his best, after a few hours, he still lost his breath.

At this time, the whole restaurant was filled with a strong smell of blood. It happened to be dinner time, and the set of dead fish was on the table, so the stench of the dead fish was added to the smell of blood, and everyone lost their appetite. Not even in the mood to perfunctory, they each left the restaurant.

Ruan Nanzhu sat there and did not move, and Lin Qiushi did not urge him. He knew that Ruan Nanzhu would not leave, and he must have his own ideas.

Gu Longming became a little silent because of the death of that person in the afternoon. He poked at the noodles on the plate in front of him with a fork and seemed to have no appetite.

When everyone in the restaurant was almost gone, Ruan Nanzhu took out a few plastic bags from his arms.

"What are you going to do?" Lin Qiushi was taken aback.

Ruan Nanzhu said: "I don't think the door will force us to come with that thing. The difference in force is too great."

Lin Qiushi: "You mean..." He watched Ruan Nanzhu put all the dead fish on the table into his pockets, stuffing them full, "Give the fish to that thing?"

"In mythology, it is the aperitif that got the Minotaur drunk." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Now we almost understand the meaning of the aperitif."

The fish you eat is fermented in the stomach, and you can taste it by opening the pouch. It is truly an "aperitif".

So Ruan Nanzhu just wanted to use the dead fish to lead Minotaur to the side of the yellow-eyed monster, but he didn't know if it would work, but he had to give it a try.

After all, this method is much more reliable than picking up that thing with a knife.

Ruan Nanzhu packed the dead fish, carried it and walked out, following the traces of mosquitoes to find the room where the yellow-eyed fish was.

At this time, there were already many small holes outside the room of the yellow-eyed murloc, apparently made by it with the sharp weapon on top of its head.

Ruan Nanzhu asked Lin Qiushi and the others to stand away, and with one hand, he threw the fish in his hand along the gap of the window.

The dead fish fell to the ground, and the yellow-eyed strange fish jumped on the dead fish excitedly, held it up with his hands and began to rudely gnaw on it. The lost bag of fish was eaten clean. Fortunately, they had already prepared, and quickly threw in the other bags of fish they were carrying.

While it was eating fish, Ruan Nanzhu kept watching, but Lin Qiushi was a little afraid that he would be injured. After all, the blood of the last injured person was still hanging on the window.

The yellow-eyed murloc ate ​​all the fish, not even the head of the fish left. After it was full, it showed the color of contentment, and just lay on the floor and fell asleep.

"Let's go." Ruan Nanzhu said to Lin Qiushi.

It was getting late at this time, and although he was eager to see what would happen here at night, it was not a wise move to stay outside.

The three went to find another bedroom where they could rest, lying on the bed and waiting for the night to come.

The last ray of light disappeared in the sky with the sun falling on the horizon. Tonight is a moonless night, only the whistling sea breeze and the dark clouds hanging like a curtain in the sky.

Lin Qiushi couldn't sleep well, staring at the window in a daze.

Ruan Nanzhu was lying on a different bed with him, but when he fell asleep, he leaned over behind him, and the two were huddled together.

There was no conversation, no eyes, and they seemed to have experienced thousands of scenes in a tacit understanding.

Both of them are waiting, waiting for the answer after the temptation.

At about three in the morning, their wait finally came to an end.

Lin Qiushi's ears caught a roar similar to that of a beast, followed by a violent fight. They were a little far away from the place, and they couldn't hear what was going on, but the fight did last for a long time. It gradually disappeared until it was almost dawn.

"Who do you think will win?" Ruan Nanzhu asked in a low voice.

"I don't know." Lin Qiushi said, "Everyone is the same."

Although things went relatively smoothly for the most part, there were still some surprises that exceeded their expectations. Not long after the fighting stopped, human cries and screams sounded on the boat. Lin Qiushi, who heard the movement, got up from the bed and walked to the window. He wanted to see what was going on outside. What, but the night outside was too dark for him to see clearly.

Fortunately, Ruan Nanzhu's vision played a key role at this time. He saw the murloc drag a struggling man to the deck.

"How could this be?!" Lin Qiushi heard Ruan Nanzhu's description, a little incredulous, "No one is eating fish in the restaurant today—"

Ruan Nanzhu frowned and said, "You...remember the person who was scratched by Jian Qianyuan yesterday?"

Lin Qiushi: "..." He nodded.

Ruan Nanzhu said: "He doesn't seem to have come to the restaurant today."

All Lin Qiushi's attention was on the two monsters today, but he didn't notice it: "But isn't it a good thing that he didn't come to the restaurant?"

If you don't come to the restaurant, it means you don't eat fish, so why are you being targeted by monsters.

Ruan Nanzhu smiled bitterly: "Where there are fish, it's not just a restaurant."

Lin Qiushi: "..." He immediately thought of that dirty kitchen.

"There are so many edible fish in the kitchen." Ruan Nanzhu said, "There must be sacrifices."

Lin Qiushi sighed. He originally thought that there would be no more victims tonight, but now that he thinks about it, he is too naive, and there is no such kindness in the door. The longer you stay here, the worse the casualties will be.

The man's screams gradually subsided, and in the end there was only a long silent night.

Lin Qiushi reluctantly slept for a while before dawn, but he didn't know whether he slept badly and had nightmares, or he didn't fall asleep at all. He always felt that the thing had been wandering around the room where they were in the middle of the night. He even smelled that disgusting fishy smell again.

On the third day, the spirits of the three were not very good. They hadn't slept very well these past few nights, and were troubled by various things.

After the baptism a few days ago, everyone was numb to the corpse that appeared on the deck. They skillfully disposed of the corpse, cleaned the deck, and looked like nothing happened.

Lin Qiushi's attention was not on the deck. He went to the restaurant early to look for traces of mosquitoes. But to his disappointment, the mosquitoes that appeared as threads yesterday were gone.

"Don't be in a hurry." Ruan Nanzhu looked at his watch, "It's still early."

Lin Qiushi hummed, indicating that he knew.

Without the line, they couldn't find two monsters and could only continue to wait.

At about eleven o'clock, the picture that Lin Qiushi was looking forward to finally appeared. The NPC who turned into a mosquito yesterday reappeared in the restaurant, wearing the same clothes and maintaining the same expression, just like an NPC that is regularly refreshed in the game.

This time without Ruan Nanzhu, someone walked up to the NPC and reached out and patted his shoulder heavily.

So the same picture as yesterday reappeared, the mosquitoes swarmed away and disappeared into the restaurant, and at the same time, two lines formed by mosquitoes appeared outside the restaurant, leading to an unknown place.

The three of Lin Qiushi began to follow the line to find the place they were looking for. A few minutes later, they arrived outside a room. Compared with yesterday, this room is very different, because it can be clearly seen from the outside.This house experienced a fierce battle last night, the wooden windows were completely shattered, and the locks on the doors were violently removed.

It seems that these two monsters really fought fiercely.But judging from the last night's situation, it seems that the giant murloc took advantage of this battle.

The author has something to say: Monster: Eat my salted fish and thorn!
