"It's Miss An. Mu Mu sighed.

Rich people think differently from them, you know, the exchange ratio between nightmare coins and RMB is about 10:1, and you can give NPC3000 nightmare coins casually just to buy clues, which is not something ordinary people can do.

She has known An Ruoqing since she was a child, and of course she knows how rich this Miss An's family is.

She and the eldest lady came to the depths of the tavern, the drunkard was sleeping soundly, and Mu Mu whispered a few times, "Mr. Joy, Mr. Joy." ”

But Joey smacked his lips and didn't wake up, and even snored.

Chen Yumu: "......"

An Ruoqing didn't call him, but took out a glass of wine, which was a glass of Margaret, and she put Margaret in front of Joey.

Suddenly, the snoring stopped.

Joey smelled the aroma of the wine, his nose moved, his eyes opened suddenly, and just as he wanted to reach out for the wine, An Ruoqing took a quick step and took the wine away.

"My wine...... Where's my wine!" Joey said unhappily.

"Mr. Joy, we want to inquire about something. An Ruoqing said with a smile.

"What do you want me to do?" the drunkard Joey looked puzzled, and there seemed to be a hint of drunkenness on his face.

"Do you know that stormy night, I heard that your fishing team was attacked?" An Ruoqing asked.

Hearing An Ruoqing's words, Joey's eyes changed slightly, but this change was quickly covered up by him, "The weather in Black Kirishima is very bad, it often rains, and storms are also a common thing. ”

"I'm not talking about the usual storm. An Ruoqing knew that this drunkard was deliberately going around in circles and didn't want to tell the truth.

"On the night of the storm I am talking about, your fishing team was attacked, and only two fishermen came back alive. This shouldn't be a common occurrence in your village, right?"

When the drunkard Joey heard An Ruoqing say this, he deliberately yawned, "It's been so long since that incident, I can't remember it anymore, let's go, I'm going to continue sleeping." ”

An Ruoqing smiled, she took out the cup of Margaret just now again, and shook it in front of Joey.

"Tell us about the past, and the wine will be yours. ”

Seeing the glass of Margaret in An Ruoqing's hand, the drunkard Joey's eyes changed, and he swallowed softly, "Do you think I, Joey......, am that kind of person?

"Knock ......"

Joey drank the Margaret from the cup, he was a little sober, but now he had a blush on his face after drinking, and he burped.

"It's been a long time since this incident, but now that I think about it, it still makes people's hearts palpitate......"

The eldest lady and Mu Mu sat down and listened intently to the drunkard Joey about what happened that night of the storm.

"It was a stormy night, our fishing boat was attacked, and only two people came back alive. ”

"You should have heard about the plague in Blackwater, cursed here...... But in fact, the curse did not start because of those two men. ”

"It's all because of the greed of the villagers......"

Hearing this, the eldest lady's brow furrowed, because what Joey said seemed to be different from what Patient James said about the past in Blackwater Village.

Joey's tone was drunk, and he continued, "After that stormy night...... A very strange thing happened, and that was that the next day, a fish ran aground on the shore. ”

"At first, no one cared about it because it happens occasionally. But then, the number of stranded fish became more and more numerous......"

"Some people were curious to pick up the fish on the shore, and were surprised to find that they were full of eyes! The villagers were so frightened that they had never seen anything like it. The village chief at that time kept the villagers away from the fish, and he thought that these fish with eyes were cursed and hoodoo!"

But they didn't know that this was the beginning of the disaster, and since the fish stranded, more and more things have been washed ashore by the sea, and there are other marine life besides the fish. ”

"But without exception...... These creatures are covered with eyes!"

At this point, Joey's two eyes began to fight, and he was about to fall asleep. An Ruoqing took out another glass of brandy Coke, and Joey smelled the wine and immediately drank the wine.

He seemed to regain his spirits, and continued: "The chief's warning was frightening, but soon a bold man brought back the stranded fish, the man who had been fortunate enough to escape the shipwreck, and his sanity became unclear after the night of the storm. ”

He didn't expect that although this fish looked terrible, it was very delicious to eat. ”

Gradually, more and more people began to try to eat this fish, because it was very hard and dangerous for fishermen to go out to sea, and it was a gift for this fish to run aground on the shore. ”

"The village chief's warnings were forgotten by the greed of the people, until one day a whale washed ashore and the whale was seriously injured and did not know what had happened. ”

"Is that whale also full of eyes?" Mu Mu asked.

"Yes. Drunkard Joey nodded, "But even so, the greed in the hearts of the villagers has driven them to use their brains against whales. ”

"The huge whale was slaughtered by people, the whale meat on its body was divided from every house, and the whale's head was cut off, and its whereabouts have not been known ever since......"

Mu Mu and the eldest lady glanced at each other, and they remembered the half of the whale head in the depths of Arkham Asylum, and the clues were connected.

It seems that the half whale head was bought by Dean Arkham, and then he had his evil plan to study the Scales Disease and breed a terrifying mutant!

"Some villagers chose to eat it, some villagers didn't dare to eat it, and the whale was enough for the villagers to eat for a month, and since that day, there have been no more fish or other sea creatures stranded, everything is like a dream." ”

"No one thought at the time, it was the beginning of a nightmare......"

"Anyone who eats whale meat has a terrible and strange disease, which causes auditory hallucinations in people's ears, gibberish all day long, and scales like fish. ”

"The disease spread like a curse throughout the village......

As he spoke, the drunkard Joey fell asleep on the table again, and this time, no matter what kind of wine the eldest lady brought out, he did not wake up.

[You've got the key clue (2/3): Stranded Fish]

Hearing the sound of system messages, An Ruoqing knew that they couldn't ask for any other clues. At this moment, someone's hand was on her shoulder, and she subconsciously grabbed the other party's finger and twisted it hard!

"Oops!"

It was Chu Ge's voice, and when she looked back, she saw Chu Ge covering her fingers, grinning in pain. Although there is no harm between teammates, the pain is still indispensable.

The virtual gaming glasses of the nightmare game can simulate all kinds of pain, but of course this is only psychological, and you won't get hurt in reality.

"Hey, it's not scientific. Chu Ge said with a painful expression: "You obviously attacked me just now, why is the system indifferent!"

It turned out that after he and Xiaopang left the shore, they looked for the eldest lady and them in Heishui Village, but they didn't expect to find them in the tavern.

In this way, the two teams of them converged.

Chu Ge and Xiaopang also bought a cup of black water tequila and sat in the corner of the tavern with the eldest lady.

"Well, did you find anything?" Chu Ge asked.

"You should have heard the system message too, we've found two key clues, one is the statue of Dagon, and the other is the stranded fish. ”

"What's the specific situation with that stranded fish?" Chu Ge asked.

The eldest lady told Chu Ge what she had just heard in the tavern and what the drunkard Joey said.

After listening to this, Chu Ge couldn't help but think of the illusion he saw in the underground research institute of the madhouse, the huge sperm whale corpse was disemboweled, and there were stinky fish and rotten shrimp everywhere, it turned out that it was Blackwater Village?

"What about you?" asked the eldest lady.

"We went to the cave and had a look. Chu Ge said.

"And then?"

"Then we found out that it was too dark in the cave, and we didn't bring anything to light it when we went, so we'll go back and see it later. ”

"......," the eldest lady's expression was helpless, "so you just didn't find anything?"

"Not really. Chu Ge shook his head, "We met fishermen who returned from fishing just now, I don't know why, they look very ugly, they look like patients with strange scale disease, but they are different from those patients. ”

"That's ......," the eldest lady thought to herself, "Now our clues about Blackwater Village have gradually become clear. ”

"First of all, the past of Blackwater Village that James said may have been told by other villagers, so there is something wrong in it. But on a stormy night, the fishing boat was attacked, which definitely happened. ”

"Then there is the stranded fish, the huge sperm whale carcass is connected with the half whale head of the underground research institute of the insane asylum, and he should have used that half of the whale head to conduct research and discover the secret of immortality. ”

"But there's one thing I don't understand. Xiaopang suddenly said: "Heishui Village is obviously the origin of strange scale disease, why haven't we found a single patient in the village?"

"Whether it's an old man or a child here, they don't look like sick people, and even those fishermen don't have the symptoms of strange scale disease, but look even stranger!"

"Watson, you've found a blind spot. Chu Ge smiled, "This is the key, Heishui Village is the origin of the strange scale disease, and the villagers only suffered from the disease after eating those contaminated fish." But now, the Strange Scale Disease seems to have disappeared from Blackwater Village, and something is definitely going on in between......"

"An untold secret. ”

"We're just one last key clue now. The eldest lady said in a deep voice: "But we have basically already looked for it in the village, maybe it is not in the village, or we should hurry up and go to the devil's cave to have a look!"

"No, there's another place we haven't been to. Mu Mu's expression said seriously: "Do you remember the little girl who picked mushrooms?"

"Speaking of this, I suddenly thought of a joke about a little girl picking mushrooms. Chu Ge said.

"Don't listen, don't listen. "The eldest lady and the little fat have long understood the power of Chu Ge's cold jokes.

"What kind of joke?" Mu Mu was still in the world, with an expectant expression on his face.

"A drunken man slept naked under a pine tree in the woods, and a little girl picked mushrooms, and the little girl happily picked them. ”

"One, two, three, four, four, four, four, four... Went home. ”

The next day the drunken man slept naked again, and a little bear picking mushrooms came. The bear is also happily picking mushrooms. ”

"One, two, three, four, four, four, four, five, six......"

"Hey, hey. You're not a joke, it's a joke!" Chubby immediately reacted.

The eldest lady also understood, and a flush appeared on her face.

And Mu Mu still looked confused, "What's one, two, three...... Why can't the fourth one be picked?"
