    Chasing the sea monster exhausted Yi Xing a lot of energy. Instead of returning to the fishing village immediately, he went to the small rocky island where the mermaid was, and roasted the rest of the sea monster's arms and legs.

    Putting the last piece of the sea monster's arm and foot into his mouth, Yi Xing stroked his stomach, whispered: "It's a bit small."

    No, it's not that the sea monster has fewer arms and legs, but that his appetite has increased.

    It was also a sea monster arm, he was able to eat very full last night, but today he was only half full.

    Yi Xing felt a little regretful, he shouldn't have let the sea monster go so easily, if he could leave it with an extra arm, he wouldn't need to starve today.

    Is this still less?

    The mermaid was already numb from the shock of Yi Xing's appetite, but after hearing Yi Xing's words, she couldn't help being shocked again.

    "I still have some seashells here, would you like some?" The mermaid picked up a handful of unprocessed seashells.

    This is what she picked up in the sea when she was watching Yi Xing grilled octopus tentacles.

    She has a natural fear of the arms and legs of sea monsters, she dare not eat them, dare not even think about them.

    But watching Yi Xing eat that horrible thing, she still had an inexplicable appetite, so much so that she went to the sea to look for food when it was getting dark, and overestimated her appetite, picking up too many seashells.

    "No, I'll go back to the fishing village first."

    Eating ordinary food is time-consuming and laborious, and it can't replenish much energy. If he is not extremely hungry, Yi Xing is not going to eat any more.

    Yi Xing got up, put the grill and seasoning into the vacated space card.

    Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask the mermaid:

    "What was the object in your dream?"

    Since the mermaid is also one of the survivors, she should also dream about the key.

    Last time he left after eating charcoal-grilled octopus, and forgot to ask.

    The mermaid seems intimidated by the way he eats the octopus, don't forget to mention it to him.

    "That's too much," recalled the mermaid, wringing her fingers, "sometimes it's a mirror, sometimes it's a hairpin, sometimes it's red dancing shoes... Every day's dream is different, and I guess, every time the dungeon is opened, the key will be different."It will change."

    Yi Xing thought for a while and said, "I entered this dungeon yesterday afternoon. If the key would change, it should have changed yesterday. What did you dream about last night?"

    "gloves."

    The mermaid described: "A pair of goose yellow knitted gloves with a pearl sewn on the back."

    Yi Xing was sure that he did not see such gloves in the pile of bridal clothes.

    Could there be a bride's relic that even the old man who presided over the sacrifice didn't know?

    "Are there any other characteristics? Tell me carefully." Yi Xing said.

    "Well... the pearls on the left and right gloves are definitely real, but they are different in size, and they don't look like products of industrial mass production. The gloves are also, just the same color, and there is no special weave or design, like handmade products.” The mermaid said.

    Yi Xing nodded to show that he understood.

    Pearls, handmade products, based on these two known points, the scope can be narrowed down a lot.

    Foreign tourists or survivor "brides" rarely own such items, and such a pair of gloves is more like an item of fishing village residents.

    Yi Xing had guessed for a long time that there were only middle-aged and elderly people in the fishing village, so where did the other people go?

    Contact the person who carried the stretcher that night and said "give your daughter to the sea monster with your own hands", and what the old man said when he mistook him for a priest, "If you fail to sacrifice the outsider, double the number of villagers will be tied to the bambooRaft", the whereabouts of the disappeared part of the villagers is clear at a glance.

    They became brides or food for sea monsters, a thing anyway.

    Since there have been brides in the villagers of the fishing village, they will leave the bride's relics, which is the "key".

    As for those items, perhaps due to some reasons in the village, the old man was not able to collect them completely.

    Yi Xing knew where to find the remaining "key".

    But let's leave it to the players. He doesn't like looking for "keys" that have nothing to do with food.

    Players should be able to find the "key" that has not been deliberately hidden.

    Yi Xing returned to the bay when it was completely dark.

    There was a faint fire burning on the shore, and the president and the racing driver sat around the fire, roasting a few small fish.

    The player paces back and forth on the wet sand and stones beaten by the waves, looking at the sea from time to time.

    Yi Xing didn't expect that they would wait for him here, and suddenly felt a little guilty.

    He swam close in the water and caught some fish, shrimp and shellfish with the blood spider silk. He didn't stand up until the depth of the water was less than half a meter and the seafood he caught was enough for three people with normal appetites. Then he stood up and appeared in the sea water.

    The player immediately saw the figure appearing on the sea surface. She blinked several times to confirm that she was not hallucinating, and then exclaimed in surprise: "Cub?!"

    "En," Yi Xing responded, stretched out his hand and handed over a string of seafood on the bleeding spider silk, and said, "Supper."

    The player has no time to take care of supper, she looked around Yi Xing in fear, "Cub, are you not injured? Why did you run into the sea alone again? Even if you want to find something to eat, let us know in advance.Be mentally prepared."

    Yi Xing: "Didn't the CEO watch me go into the sea?"

    Is this an advance notice?

    The player said: "The president said that you rushed directly into the sea as if you were going to commit suicide, which frightened him into a daze."

    "Really?" Yi Xing looked forward, and the president and the racing driver were walking this way.

    With deep inquiry and doubts in the eyes of the president, he restrained his expression when he met Shang Yi Xing's gaze, and said:

    "Yes, I thought you were going to throw yourself into the sea, but fortunately you are fine."

    The sea breeze blew, and the player reminded: "Go back to your residence first, Taotie has been in the water for so long, be careful not to catch a cold."

    "Okay." The president agreed.

    The racer took a few small fish that were burnt or burnt, and they returned to the fishing village together.

    Back at the residence, Yi Xing went upstairs to take a shower, and the rest of them borrowed the old man's kitchen to cook a seafood feast.

    Hearing the sound of several people busy downstairs, the old man closed the door, bowed and quietly came to Yi Xing's side.

    "Master Sacrifice, I have followed your instructions to hide all the bride's relics together, and there will be absolutely no problems in the future."

    "En." Yi Xing responded lightly.

    Of course there will be no problems in the future.

    He didn't think it was enough to make octopus sashimi, so he took out a section of octopus tentacles from the space card, and the space vacated was just enough to stuff the remaining relics.

    Now all the relics are in his space card, and there is nothing to do in the future.

    Yi Xing took off his coat, suddenly remembered that there was a live broadcast, and wanted to turn off the live broadcast, but seeing the old man still standing there, he asked, "What else?"

    "My lord priest, the "sacred object" you donated has not appeared in the water tank today, shall we still dedicate the woman who walked with you... to that person tonight?" the old man asked.

    Yi Xing raised his eyebrows slightly.

    They got the sea monster's tentacles in this way. The priest put a miniature version of the tentacles into the water tank every day. The priest was always paying attention to the movements of the fishing village or the survivors.

    The priest didn't put new tentacles, and he didn't know if he didn't succeed in getting the sea monster's body tissue today.

    "No need." Yi Xing said.

    Whether it was because the priest failed to obtain the body tissue for making miniature tentacles from the sea monster, or for other reasons, Yi Xing did not intend to make trouble.

    The old man showed hesitation, and asked again: "Does it need to tie the villagers to the bamboo raft?"

    Yi Xing smiled, "Okay, you can tie yourself up."

    "This..." The old man's complexion changed drastically, and he said in panic:

    "Master Priest, we have a deal first, how can you make me a sacrifice?"

    "trade?"

    Yi Xing looked sideways at the old man, and said mockingly: "Is there any? I forgot."

    The old man's voice trembled, "We serve you, sacrifice the outsiders, and feed the one under the sea with flesh and blood. You gave us great power, let us take off our mortal bodies, and become his apostles."

    Yi Xing narrowed his eyes slightly.

    This is the deal between the priest and the villagers, so what about his deal with the sea monster?

    He gave the sea monster survivors and food, what did the sea monster give him?

    No, with the sea monster's IQ that acts entirely on instinct, can it understand such a complicated thing?

    Unless, this priest has the ability to force the transaction to be fulfilled.

    The old man was still chanting in panic, "You can't turn me into a sacrifice."

    "Why not?"

    Yi Xing said: "'I' only promised to give you abilities, but I didn't say that you wouldn't be sacrificed. Didn't you sacrifice many people from the same village with your own hands?"

    "No……"

    The old man wanted to say something else, but Yi Xing interrupted him and gave him a choice, "Go by yourself or should I help you?"

    The old man's voice stopped abruptly.

    "……I go by my own."

    The old man seemed to have exhausted all his energy.

    Yi Xing walked to the window and looked downstairs.

    The player and the president are cleaning seafood in the yard. The three of them are all rookies in the kitchen, and they have caused many accidents when washing seafood.

    The priest did not release the tentacles of the sea monster tonight, so there must be other actions.

    Yi Xing is looking forward to it.

    Being able to establish a deal with a sea monster and let the other party donate his body tissues every day, such a capable person really wants to... eat him.
