Although Atsuta Village is located in the middle of nowhere, it is not secluded, and every household has electrical appliances, but at this time, it is only 9 o'clock in the evening, and every household has turned off the lights early, and the village is dark.

Suddenly, a wooden window was slowly removed, revealing a pair of curious little eyes looking out of the window. It wasn't long before a frightened shout rang out, and then the window slammed shut, and there was no movement inside.

There seemed to be a strong wind outside the village, and the branches of the trees outside swayed and rustled, as if a ghost was crying wolf, which was very terrifying.

In the center of Atsuta Village is a simple wooden house, which looks particularly dilapidated compared to the houses next to it.

There was a sudden shake in the water tank in the kitchen of the wooden house, and then the wooden plank that covered it gently moved back, revealing a pale pretty face from inside.

This is a young girl, there is no trace of makeup on her face, and she is exceptionally pure. Her beautiful black hair was tied up casually by a hemp rope, she was wearing a simple floral dress, her black skin was like a black pearl in the sea, and she exuded a youthful girlish atmosphere.

But at this time, this girl who should have been innocent and romantic was like a quail, hiding in the water tank with her thin body and shivering, and a pair of reddened eyes looked around in horror.

Her name is Hongbei Sakura, and she is the only daughter of Hongbei Shaofu, who is a notoriously cowardly man in Atsuta Village and an honest fisherman. Because of his lack of excellent craftsmanship, flexible mind, and honest and cowardly character, he became a human and animal to be bullied, and even the naughty boys in the village looked down on him. As a result, the family's life became very poor, and they were the poorest family in the entire village.

After a day of quarrels, her mother left Hongbei Sakura, who was only nine years old at the time, and left the house with her father and married someone else. The departure of his wife made this honest man even more silent, and he only knew how to use alcohol to kill his sorrows every day, and the life of the family became worse day by day, and he was poor.

As the days passed, Hongbei Sakura slowly grew up and grew into a beautiful girl who was down-to-earth and generous. No one would have imagined that the previously ordinary yellow-haired girl would finally transform into a beautiful little beauty, and become a famous black pearl within a radius of more than ten miles.

Hongbei cherry blossoms are not only good-looking, but also ingenious. When she grew up, she relied on a pair of skillful hands to often take on the work of sewing and mending outside, so that the family slowly improved. The people in the village are sighing that the greatest luck of Hongbei, a man, in his life is that he gave birth to a good daughter.

The abandonment of her mother and the cowardice of her father made Hongbei Sakura develop an independent character since she was a child. But Hongbei Sakura doesn't blame them, she knows that her father still loves her, it's just that this man is just not good at words, and he likes to hide everything secretly in his heart.

Today, because I took several pieces of needlework, I forgot the time when I was busy, and when Hongbei Sakura was busy, I found that it was already dusk, and the sky was gradually darkening. Dr. Hongbei, who walked into the house, saw that his face changed instantly, and shouted in horror: "Why are you still at home, didn't I tell you to leave the village?"

Hongbei Sakura then remembered that today was the birthday of Lord Poseidon, but because she worked too hard, she forgot such an important thing.

She is a native fisherman's daughter in this village, she has heard the legend of the god of the sea since she was a child, and it is rumored that the god of the sea is fierce and bloodthirsty, and is a very terrifying monster, and he eats the fishermen every year. And every year on the birthday festival of Lord Poseidon, he will go ashore to look for the woman, and then drag it into the sea to eat it.

Thinking of this, Hongbei Sakura's face turned pale instantly, and she was overwhelmed with crying, after all, she was only a nineteen-year-old girl now. Dr. Hongbei sighed deeply, then quickly pulled her into the kitchen, stuffed her into the empty water tank, and warned with a solemn face: "Hide well, don't come out, just survive tonight." ”

Hongbei Sakura had never seen such fear and solemnity on her father's face, so she nodded quickly and shrank into the water tank, and Dr. Hongbei glanced at her daughter firmly and then firmly covered the board.

The lonely time is the hardest, Hongbei Sakura only feels like a year in the dark water tank, as if a long time has passed, there is no movement outside, and the silence is scary.

Maintaining the same posture all the time made her whole body numb, and her hands and feet were like thousands of ants biting, and she was uncomfortable.

"It seems that Lord Poseidon should not be here tonight. Hongbei Sakura was frightened, but there was a trace of curiosity in her heart, and then her hands involuntarily pushed away the wooden plank above her head.

"Ahh

After hearing this scream, the entire village of Atsuta remained completely dark, and not a single house was lit up, as if it had not been heard.

If you look closely, the men in each household are either shivering on the bed wrapped in the quilt, or they are holding their boy's mouth tightly to prevent him from making a sound.

Hongbei Sakura looked at the monster in front of him in horror, with black skin, and a cracked mouth revealing hideous fangs, and the disgusting and transparent saliva inside kept dripping and falling on the floor with a sizzling sound.

The monster looked at Hongbei Sakura greedily, as if watching a delicious dinner, and suddenly a fierce light appeared in his eyes, and his black sticky palm grabbed her head.

"Let go....let go of my daughter....." Suddenly, an unfounded voice sounded weakly outside the kitchen.

The monster froze, its cyan pupils looking out the door.

There was an extra man outside the kitchen door at this time, dressed in a shabby leather fishing suit, holding a steel fork in his hand, short in stature, and his legs swinging, not only did not have a trace of majesty, but it was unusually ridiculous to drive. He is the father of Hongbei Sakura, Dr. Hongbei.

"Daddy......." Hongbei Sakura cried as if she saw a savior, and wanted to run towards Hongbei Doctor, but was shocked by the monster's arm and fell back into the water tank.

"Daughter, don't be afraid, Dad will come to your rescue right away. Seeing that his daughter was injured, a look of anger flashed on Dr. Hongbei's face, and he suppressed the timidity in his heart, and yelled loudly at the fish monster: "Youkai, let my daughter go, otherwise I will fight with you." ”

"Truly......" The fish monster let out a piercing laugh from its mouth, as if its nails were scraping through the glass, which was creepy. As if to laugh at the short man's indiscretion, the long scarlet tongue licked through the white fangs and made a terrifying sound.

Suddenly thinking that this monster was the Seagod who devoured countless people, the fear in Dr. Hongbei's heart slowly grew, and the hands holding the steel fork trembled involuntarily, his face was pale, and he was almost paralyzed to the ground.

The fish monster looked at all this with contempt, then ignored Dr. Hongbei, turned around and scooped up the Hongbei cherry in the water tank, sandwiched it under his armpit, and swaggered towards the door.

"Daddy...... Save me......" Hongbei Sakura kept struggling under the fish monster's armpits, and shouted heartbreakingly at Dr. Hongbei.

"Daughter..... Hongbei Sakura's screaming seemed to arouse some kind of strength in Hongbei Doctor's heart, and there was a trace of courage in his body, the steel fork in his hand was horizontal, and he shouted frantically in his mouth: "Let go of my daughter!"

Then he raised the steel fork in his hand and stabbed at the fish monster resolutely.
