Chapter 312: Bait with people
Hearing this, we all looked towards the shallows in the distance. It's just that the fog is very thick over there, and I can't see what is over there.
However, in this place, we naturally think of the merman.
"Boss, could it be a merman?" Erfat asked.
I nodded slightly, it was very likely.
Above, there is a low-lying area like a swamp, and the bones of the mermaids are everywhere. We walked around the neighborhood and headed for the shallows over there.
The sea fog here is very thick.
When we got to the shoal, we found that there were some marks on the sand. The cry just now came from here, but after we came, we didn't see where the merman was.
The second fat squatted down, carefully pulled the ground, and then, found a few beads, similar to pearls, and moreover, they also emitted a faint light.
"Look, what is this?" Took the beads.
Niu Rhubarb picked up one, observed it carefully, and said: "The merman cried into a pearl, the cry we heard just now should be the merman." This kind of bead should be transformed by the tears of the merman! ”
For this strange thing, several of us also picked it up and looked at it carefully. It does look like a pearl, very beautiful.
"Why did the mermaid cry just now?" Weiyang asked, holding the beads.
Niu Rhubarb thought for a moment and said, "After the mermaids run aground, it is difficult to return to the sea, and their tails will gradually crack and become almost the same structure as the two legs of humans. It's just that they have to endure great pain, maybe the merman cry we heard just now is because of this! ”
On this ground, there is a distance from the deep sea over there. If the merman is swept by a big wave, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sea.
I just don't know, where did the merman go?
There were no waves just now, it shouldn't have been carried away by the waves, otherwise, there shouldn't have been so many traces left on this beach.
While we were talking, Xiao Xuanzi was always looking around for something.
"Give me a bead!" Little Xuanzi seemed to have found something, so he said to me, I pinched a bead and handed it to him. He pulled a yellow talisman from his cuff. Spread the yellow charm on your hand and place the bead on top of the yellow charm. The strange thing is that as soon as the beads are touched by the yellow talisman, they turn into a liquid and seep into the yellow talisman.
Then, Xiao Xuanzi said a few words silently, and the yellow charm swished and flew out of his hand.
A golden light, almost instantly, rushed behind a large rock in front of it and disappeared without a trace. Then, we saw a woman limping into the distance.
Seeing this, Xiao Xuanzi immediately chased over there.
Me and Er Fat also followed.
Soon, I saw a woman wrapped in a straw coat running into the distance. It's just that her legs and feet are very inflexible, and she can't walk fast at all.
When I got closer, I could see that she looked like she was just a teenage girl. The hair was long, wet, and hung down to the ground.
Between the grass clothes, on the exposed legs, there was still blood.
"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you!" I said at once, because every step she took, she let out a scream, and the blood would flow even more.
I don't know if she'll understand us.
When she heard this, she was stunned for a moment and looked at us carefully. looked at Xiao Xuanzi again, and at this time, Weiyang also rushed over, and she said, "Little girl, don't be afraid, a few of us just entered here by mistake by sinking a ship." ”
It seems that Weiyang's words are more effective.
The girl stopped and fell to the ground, as if her legs were struggling to support her body. Weiyang walked over, squatted down, and asked, "Are you from the merman clan?" ”
The girl nodded, and it seemed that she could really understand us.
Then, the girl looked at us again before asking, "Aren't you shark hunters?" ”
"What is a merman hunter?" Weiyang asked.
Hearing Weiyang's question, the expression on the girl's face softened slightly, and she said, "It's the coastal people who specialize in hunting our merman clan." Every time they go to sea, they have to hunt and kill a lot of our people, so we mermaids only dare to hide in the deep sea of Guixu. ”
As for the ruins mentioned by the girl, she refers to the place where the sea returns, and legend has it that the mermaids often hide in the ruins in order to ensure the safety of the clansmen.
At the same time, this remark also reminds me of the gang of boat bosses. Perhaps, the gang of the boat boss is the shark hunter in the girl's mouth.
He was blind in one eye, maybe it was caused by going out to sea to hunt mermaids.
"It is said that this is the merman cemetery, how did you come to this shoal?" Weiyang continued to ask.
When she asked this, the girl's tears fell again, and when her tears fell on the ground, they would turn into pearls. She said: "Half a month ago, my father disappeared, and my mother came to look for my father, but she was nowhere to be found. I was worried about her, so I came to the beach here to have a look. However, unexpectedly, the waves on the beach were too big, and I was washed up in the shallows and could not go back. ”
It seems that the situation is similar to what we imagined, and she is indeed stranded and cannot go back.
When the mermaid runs aground, the tail of the fish will turn into legs, and for a while, it will be difficult to stand and walk, so it is very difficult to go back. Seeing this, Weiyang said: "Don't worry, we'll send you back!" ”
"But...... My mother, and my father, have not been found! She said that at the mention of her father and mother, her tears could not be stopped again.
I estimate that her father and mother are very likely to have been hunted and killed by merman hunters, otherwise, they disappeared half a month ago, and it is impossible that they have not returned.
"Little girl, you go back first, maybe, after a while, they will go back!" I can only comfort her like this, and I don't know what to say.
She bowed her head and nodded slightly.
On the shore, she couldn't do anything.
Then, Er Fat and I carried her and prepared to release her back into the sea. As soon as she returns to the sea, the wounds on her lower body will heal and she will be able to regain her freedom.
Walk along the beach in the direction of the sea.
However, when we were only four or five meters away from the sea, the little child said, "There seems to be something in the sea, and they are in the same group as the merman hunters!" ”
In the seawater, there is a black press, and I can't see what it is.
Before we could think too much about it, all the black stuff in the sea climbed ashore. They all resembled some people, and some fish-like, pitch black, as if they were some kind of feminine thing. As soon as they came ashore, a gust of wind blew.
"Aren't these fucking sea ghosts?" Erfat asked.
"Let's go, go back to the shore over there first!" I said.
There were too many of those black things, far and near, all of them were black and oppressive, and the whole shallows were densely covered.
This is completely besieged by sea ghosts.
"Second fat, carry her, I'll deal with the sea ghost!" I said, and then put the little girl of the mermaid clan on the shoulder of the second fat.
The second fat nodded, turned his head and ran away.
However, as soon as he ran out a dozen steps, he was immediately knocked over by a black shadow. Seeing this, I cut off the black shadow with a sword, and the second fat also jumped in the air, and he was stunned to stabilize his body and did not fall.
The speed of the black shadow is extremely fast, but in front of my Qingping Sword, these things are nothing. One after another, the sword qi slashed out, shaking back all those black shadows.
Then, I retreated to the shore over there with Erfat.
Meanwhile.
On the other side of the cliff, there are several people hiding. One of them, the boss of the boat, said in a low voice: "I didn't expect that these people have some skills, and they didn't let them sink directly into the sea." However, it doesn't matter, under the siege of sea ghosts, they will be dragged into the sea sooner or later. ”
"Boss Li, they already have a merman in their hands, otherwise, let's go over and grab that merman?" One of the men said.
"Fart, this time there are so many living people to bait us, how can we just catch a shark? After a while, all of them were dragged into the sea, and this place is so close to Shark Island, I don't know how many sharks it can attract! What's more, these people seem to have some skills, can you fight them? The boat boss Li asked rhetorically.
The man touched the back of his head, naturally unable to speak.
Able to attract mermen, these merman hunters have their own ways to let those mermen run aground without the power to resist.
