Chapter 44 The Octopus of the Sea
The town is surrounded by sea water on all sides, there is only one road in and out, and the bridge connecting the town to the land is a bridge hundreds of meters long, and the waves are constantly crashing.
The three of them walked along the beach, and they could see the bridge from a long distance, and the bridge was full of things, so far away that they couldn't see it very clearly.
The sea breeze brings a wet fishy smell, and the waves crash against the beach, wave after wave.
The villagers of the town are very kind during the day, and the fishing boats that go out to sea are parked in the harbor, and the townspeople are constantly going up and down at this time.
"You're going out to sea to fish."
Shen Yingxing walked to the port, and the people on the boat stopped moving, and countless pairs of eyes stared back at her.
"Yes, do you want to be together, just this number, I can take you to enjoy the magnificent waves of the sea, our Poseidon Town has fishing boats going out to fish every day, and they will come back at night."
The boatman gestured a finger, Lingjun took out five hundred from his pocket and handed it to him, and the boatman took it and counted it, and his attitude became more flattering.
"Stranger, get on the boat, we're about to leave."
The three of them went to the deck, watched the boatman carry a few more large boxes, and then closed the anchor and set sail.
The fishing boat is not small, divided into two floors, the top is the captain's room, which controls the boat, the bottom is the place where the crew rests, and the bottom is loaded with food.
The sea is endless, the sky is very blue, and occasionally a few white clouds drift by, and the water is so deep that when you look down, you will feel like you are looking at a huge eye.
The fishing boat sailed a long way, and at first the wind was beautiful, and then the wind was fierce, and the lightning and thunder were roaring, and all the people who had been standing on the deck to enjoy the scenery went into the cabin.
The boat was particularly fragile as it sailed in the sea, and the waves hit and the hull kept shaking.
The storm struck, the whole sky turned black, and thunder and lightning struck the sea, electrocuting a school of fish.
"What to do, Captain, what a storm."
"God forbid, I don't want to die yet."
"Please, the storm will pass quickly."
The crew walked around in a bit of a panic, looking out the window with concern from time to time, and in the sea, the ship seemed extremely small.
Unfortunately, it backfired, and the waves were higher and higher, lapping the hull of the ship and slapping the boat off course.
"What's that!"
At this moment, a huge tentacle reached out from the deep sea and landed on the deck.
"That's a deep-sea octopus!"
"Oh my God~"
The octopus tentacle rolled up the hull, and Shen Yingxing stared at the tentacle with a solemn expression.
The tentacle's suction cups attached to the hull and lifted the whole ship up, making the boat look like a toy compared to it.
The octopus emerged from the sea, its huge eyes peeking in from the cabin like two giant light bulbs.
Two tentacles wrapped the boat, and it was lifted more than ten meters above the sea, and the octopus swam rapidly.
"It seems like it's going to take us somewhere."
Shen Yingxing stared at the octopus from the window, the tentacles of the octopus waved, and from time to time thunder and lightning slashed at it, but it was not painful.
"Ying Xing, this octopus is so scary."
Xie Shasha curled up in her chair, staring at those huge suction cups, the kind of soft and slippery tentacles, it was really terrifying.
Ling Xun stood beside Shen Yingxing, stretched out his hand and placed it on her waist in a protective gesture.
"Don't worry, even if you fall into the sea and are eaten by an octopus, I can rescue you."
Soon, an island appeared in front of me, and within the confines of the island, the storm was stopped, and the island was sunny and contrasted with the outside.
The octopus threw the boat to the ground, and the hull of the boat cracked in response to the sound, falling from a height of more than ten meters, and the crew was directly smashed into a meat patty.
Ling Xun picked up Shen Yingxing horizontally and jumped off the deck, Shen Yingxing flicked his long whip and wrapped around Xie Shasha's body.
Jumping down from a height of more than ten meters, Lingjun landed safely and put Shen Yingxing down.
Feeling the pleasure of bungee jumping, Xie Shasha pursed her lips, feeling her stomach tumbling over, and she vomited it all with a wow.
Fortunately, at least she could survive, a boatload of people, only three of them survived, and the others were all thrown down and smashed into meatloaf.
The octopus flapped its huge tentacles and landed on the ground as if it were overwhelmed.
Staring at the mountains and forests with huge eyes, a few people came out of the mountain forest, and the octopus was even more happy to see them, waving its tentacles wildly, and then diving to the bottom of the sea and disappearing.
"You're from Poseidon Town."
The leader was a middle-aged man, and several of them were in ragged clothes, with fish scales on their bodies and faces.
"Hmm."
Shen Yingxing nodded coldly, looking at the fish scales on their bodies with black and white eyes.
Wisps of yin qi on the scales of the fish are spreading into their bodies, until their bodies are covered with fish scales, and they will also be eroded by the yin qi and die.
"Come with me."
The three followed, into the woods, while the others walked towards the smashed boat.
They removed the pieces, dragged out the food and water from the cabin, took all the things they needed, and followed one of them with a large suitcase.
The mountains and forests went around the bends, and I don't know how many turns they took, and everyone came to a big platform.
It can be seen that this place has been built, all the surrounding trees have been cut down, and a large cave has been dug, and several people have come out of the cave one after another.
All of them have fish scales on their bodies, and the serious ones are all over their bodies, only the hands and feet have some blank spaces that have not grown.
"Where do you get these scales?"
"You've just arrived in Poseidon, haven't you?"
The middle-aged man took the three of them into the cave, and there were some old, weak, sick and disabled inside, as if from the beginning to the present, except for the middle-aged man, there was no labor.
Correspondingly, in the town, they have not seen the old, weak, sick and disabled, and there are no old people or children in the town.
"We came to Poseidon Town for a tour, and we heard that there are mermaids here, so we only arrived in the town yesterday."
"Mermaid," the middle-aged man sneered and motioned for a few people to sit down.
"There are no mermaids in the town, only monsters."
"What to say." Shen Yingxing asked.
"They are all krakens, they wear human skins during the day, they will take off their human skins and dive back into the water at night, and when they arrive during the day, they will put on their human skins, they are all monsters."
The middle-aged man's tone was indignant, the scales on his excited face were erected, and a pair of normal eyes turned into vertical pupils like beasts.
This change immediately reminded Shen Yingxing of the creature in the museum, a strange creature that had been soaked in formalin and had been dead for a long time.
"And what are you?"
Shen Yingxing's words fell like thunder, and the middle-aged man held his head in pain and tore the fish scales on his face.
