Looking at the fish in the tank, which was almost half an arm's length long, I was left with only one thought left in my head - this was not the fish I brought back!

This fish is no longer what I first saw, no longer with a big head and a small body, but with the appearance of a normal fish, although the pupils still answer, but there are already some whites of the eyes, so that people can see where its eyes are.

The only thing that hasn't changed is that it is black all over, jet black, black and scary.

The fish seemed to know me, and when it saw me coming, it jumped up from the tank and fell back down, splashing me all over.

The old man followed me, came out, and asked me, "See for yourself, can you hold it in your little cloth bag?" How is that possible. ”

I shook my head decisively, I can't fit it, I really can't fit it.

The old man didn't pay much attention to the fish, but went to a shaded place, and said, "I see that this fish is also fat, and we can't eat it any bigger, so it's good, eat two meals, and now in this weather, three meals should be rancid." ”

I......

I want to persuade the old man, this fish can't be eaten, this is definitely not an ordinary fish, even if at best, this fish grew up in the brain of the corpse, even if it didn't eat anything else, the brain of the corpse is not gone for no reason, right?

At worst, none of us can be sure that as soon as the corpse became a corpse, the fish scurried in. In other words, if it eats carrion from a corpse, then we still have to eat this fish now? Isn't it equivalent to indirectly eating a rotten corpse?!

No, I can't accept it.

Besides, this fish can manipulate corpses, so what are the side effects if we eat it? What if that corpse was like that because it ate such a fish? I don't want to end up with a corpse tied up in a shipwreck to guard the door.

I told the old man one by one, I knew it with reason, and moved it with affection, but the old man was very stubborn, and he just refused to give up, and he finally simply began to cheat, saying: "I don't care, anyway, this fish lives in my tank now, it is mine, I can deal with it as I want!" ”

After speaking, the old man didn't care about my persuasion, went up and scooped it up, covered it with a net, and walked to the kitchen, walked to the kitchen door, and looked back at me proudly, and said, "Wait for the old man to show you a hand!" ”

I sighed, and silently apologized to the fish in my heart, after all, it still saved my life, but I blamed me for not being able to beat the stinky old man...... Still, for some reason, I began to look forward to the old man's cooking.

I really don't know anything about cooking, when I was a child, my grandmother spoiled me, saying that this is not what a boy should do, but the third master is very good at cooking, grandma usually doesn't let the third master do it, but to be honest, the food cooked by the third master is much better than what grandma cooks, and if you eat too much, grandma will occasionally show her hands, and every time I get to that time, I am very happy.

It was also the third master who told me that cooking is divided into men and women, and if you want to eat well, you have to be able to cook it yourself. Therefore, I also learned to cook with the third master for two days, but I probably made a conflict with the kitchen, no matter how seriously I learned, but the things I made were always unsatisfactory, and even a little worrying.

Therefore, I did not go into the kitchen, which was the greatest respect for the old man.

However, I couldn't help but go in.

Because the old man had only been busy working in it for a while, he began to shout at me, I didn't want to go, but the old man was like a ghost, lying at the door and insisting that I go in.

I said to myself, what's the matter, could it be that this old man won't do it at all, is this trying to let me come?

"I'll tell you first, I don't know how to cook at all...... If you want me to help you, then you might as well find a dog......"

As I went, I went in, and saw the old man standing with a knife pointed at me. When he saw me come in, he shook his kitchen knife.

I quickly took a step back, and said to myself, no, this old man was controlled by that fish? However, doesn't the fish have to enter the human brain, could it be that the fish has grown up and become more capable?

"You...... What do you want to do? ”

The old man looked up at me, and as if he saw that I was being frightened by him, he grinned at me without smiling, and suddenly took out something from behind: "Look, what is this?" ”

I looked at it, and it was not a necklace.

The color of the necklace is no longer visible, and I don't know where to find it, the necklace is sticky and slimy, and the snot is hanging on it, but there is a pendant hanging on this chain, and the pendant should be carved with a certain mythical beast in ancient times.

I was a little sick to my stomach, took a step back, and asked the old man half-jokingly, "Are you ...... You just vomited out of your stomach, why are you so disgusting......"

Unexpectedly, the old man nodded at me and said, "That's right, it just came out of my stomach, but it's not my stomach." ”

As he spoke, the old man waved his kitchen knife and pointed at the fish that was already lying on the board.

Although the outside of the fish was black, completely different from a normal fish, the structure inside was similar, and after being disemboweled, there was surprisingly much meat.

No, that's not the point right now.

I pointed to the fish and asked again, a little incredulously, "You mean, this fish has a necklace hidden in its stomach?" ”

I looked at the necklace, and the old man wanted to hand it to me, but I didn't take it, but I could see that it must be some kind of precious metal, maybe gold, but I had heard of suicide by swallowing gold, but I had never seen a stomach stockpile.

If this fish had eaten gold, or if it was not gold, it was just a metal of some kind, it would have been enough to take a small life, how could it have survived until now, and become five or six times its original size overnight? This...... I'm not dreaming, am I?!

I told the old man my question, but the old man smiled and put the necklace around my neck while I wasn't looking.

Damn, what kind of is this, I don't want it!

The old man turned around and went to deal with the fish: "If you don't want it, you have to ask for it, since you said that this fish can manipulate corpses and has some kind of power in it, then why don't you think that the power is given by this necklace?" ”

After the old man finished speaking, he raised his knife and chopped off the head of the fish with a single sword.
