Fortunately, although Hu Wenxu is a scientific research madman, he is not a fool, the mermaid is now on his side, dissecting a mermaid, this mission is basically yellow, for the sake of a tree, it is not okay to give up the entire forest, and if you engage in research, you can't hang yourself on a tree.

Hu Wenxu, who cooled down from the desire to study, once again returned to the image of an indifferent cultivator at the beginning, only occasionally talking to Lu Li, explaining some basic knowledge of experiments and the like, it seems that he really wants to train Lu Li to be his assistant.

With the help of the mermaid, the boat was very fast, and when it was close to evening, it was already possible to see that there was land in front of it, but at this time the mermaid suddenly let go of the boat, emerged out of the water and said: "That is not our territory, close will cause conflict, the rest of the distance depends on you......"

After speaking, the mermaid turned underwater, and a few wagging tails had disappeared, this mermaid really didn't give face at all, or this is the basic attitude of the mermaid towards humans, according to Lu Li, if it wasn't for the mermaid princess ordering this mermaid to help, this mermaid probably wouldn't have looked at Lu Li and the others.

"We had no choice but to do it ourselves, and it was better to be able to reach the shore before it was completely dark. Xu Haoran said with a straight face, then picked up the built-in oars on one side, took the lead and began to row, Lu Li and the others didn't want to stay in this boat for a long time, so they also began to row.

As the saying goes, Wangshan ran a dead horse, looking at the shore is very close to here, but in fact, there is a lot of distance, plus Lu Li and others have not really rowed a boat, although the physical fitness is much stronger than normal people, but in fact, their rowing speed and the speed driven by the mermaid are very different, originally expected to arrive before dark, but in fact, when they arrived at the shore, it was already dark for a long time, and the small fishing village on the shore was also pitch black, and there were no lights.

Stepping on the shore and the feeling of being down-to-earth made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, after all, the feeling of floating on the surface of the sea is not pleasant, and thinking of the existence of something beyond the specifications on the bottom of the sea, the seemingly calm sea has an extra layer of shadow on it.

This small fishing village is not large, there are only about 20 households, and some of the surrounding shelves are hung with fishing nets to dry, and there is silence here, and there is not even a sound of snoring, which makes people wonder if it is empty.

The night was a sign of danger, Xu Haoran and Gao Xiaowen discussed for a while, in a state of respect for scientists, and after asking Hu Wenxu's opinion, he roughly took Lu Li to make the decision to rest for one night in this fishing village.

Looking at the black-lit fishing village, everyone brought all the things prepared by the mermaid princess on the boat, and then began to knock on the door one by one, some of these houses were empty, and some of them were people, but after knocking on the door, they could clearly hear movement inside, but the people inside did not open the door, and it was not easy for them to break in, and shouted some good words, and did not see the people inside respond.

"We are shipwrecked travelers, please please let us stay for one night, can we pay the rent......" Xu Haoran knocked on the door again, listening to the sound of friction inside, the door finally opened, and it was an old woman who opened the door.

"Traveler, shipwrecked? I've lived by the sea for so many years, and I know by looking at the weather that there are basically no storms in this sea area recently, so if you lie to people, you can find a better reason. "It may be that she has lived by the sea for many years, the old woman is slumped, her skin is dark, her voice is very ugly, and her speech is very polite, but she finally let Lu Li and others enter the door, this room is divided into inside and outside, and there are some old furniture.

"My old woman may die one day, and there is nothing for you to covet. The old woman said with a strange smile on her face, "Outsiders are not welcome in this village, you had better leave early tomorrow morning, or something may happen." ”

"Old woman, are you living alone here?" what about your family?" Gao Xiaowen asked curiously, and then saw the old woman say strangely: "This village is very xenophobic, and the people in this village have suffered a curse, and when they reach a certain age, they either die in the sea, or disappear inexplicably, I have been married to this village for decades, and I have basically never seen anyone in this village who has lived past 50 years old." ”

"My husband and son both disappeared when they were 30 years old, and this is an ominous place, so you better leave as soon as possible, no matter what your origins are......" The old woman said in a weird way, then turned around and entered the inner room, handing over the outer room to Lu Li and the others.

"There's something quirky about this village, and maybe you can trigger a side quest. Xu Haoran saw the old woman enter the inner room, so he found a small wooden stool and sat down, in the dark, there was no expression on his face: "Shall we go and explore......

"There's no need, the side quests are too time-consuming, and this dungeon has an out-of-specification existence, so maybe something strange will leak out of that existence at any time, and it will cause an event mutation. Gao Xiaowen rejected Xu Haoran's proposal this time, obviously apprehensive about the existence outside the specifications.

"Okay, then get out of here early tomorrow morning and go to the target on the map to find the witch. Xu Haoran nodded and said, then leaned against the wall and didn't know what he remembered, a trace of cold light flashed in his eyes.

Lu Li officially began to ask Hu Wenxu for advice on how to conduct experiments, and Hu Wenxu didn't know where to take out a mouse, pull out a knife and a small flashlight, to give a basic explanation, how to peel the skin, how to break down the muscles, how to avoid the arteries, how to peel off the internal organs intact and a series of knowledge.

Finally, Hu Wenxu decomposed the mouse cleanly, the night was already deep, turned off the flashlight, the house was dark, everyone was silent, and entered a rest, Lu Li also closed his eyes and began to sink into the darkness, perceiving that there was already a small scale of shadow magic inside his body.

Most of the gamers will have some special energy after one or two copies, etc., but the gamer basically can't control these energies, and can only absorb and launch skills through modules, just like those in martial arts novels, those who practice internal skills, that don't need to practice for ten or eight years, otherwise it's like Duan Yu, the time is not effective, this is still Duan Yu's own cultural literacy.

And the gamer suddenly obtains these special energies, because of cognitive and other cognitive obstacles, it is difficult to even perceive their existence, let alone mobilize, so the gamer can only hope for the skill module, but Lu Li is different, he has a strong control over himself, so it is possible for Lu Li to start trying to mobilize the shadow magic in his body in such a short period of time......
