Eat it......

Eat...

Chapter 248: Gold and Silver Village 27

While their brains were occupied by such strange and terrible desires, some of the villagers suddenly moved towards the coffin that had given birth to the mutation.

The lid of the coffin has fallen off.

So much so that they were now able to put their hands into the coffin of the paulownia so easily.

This scene is actually very weird.

Their palms stirred in the coffin, as if it weren't a corpse lying inside—maybe not some kind of monster, but a pool of slimy black water.

Their hands sank down again, and their expressions were strangely covetous, and at last they seemed to have grabbed something, and the green tendons on their wrists burst out, and they pulled the object out with tacit understanding.

The strange thing that kept slapping the lid of the coffin and making strange noises before seemed unusually reasonable at this time.

It was just a corpse.

…… A corpse, of course.

The elongated human body, wrapped in a white cloth, was dug out of the coffin.

In the darkness of the night, those who died in vain see the light of day.

The sealed coffin lid emitted an incomparably strong stench, which also diffused at this time.

The corpse was completely stiff, and the white cloth was tightly wrapped around her, obscuring her face. The white silk on the face seems to be slightly sunken, outlining the weird and emaciated facial features.

As she was carried out, the white cloth swayed, and the wind blew it underneath to reveal the bluish white skin on her ankles, and the black marks that had festered slightly...... Appears to be some obvious corpse spots.

It hasn't been very hot lately, but the corpse is decomposing too quickly.

At this time, the corpse covered with a white cloth could not see the strangeness that had happened to her before, she did not move, but was forcibly pulled out of the coffin by the villagers. The stinking and rotting body in the white cloth was slowly dragged by the pair of hands to the river.

The sound of water seems to be getting louder.

The fish's tail jumped, and the water droplets splashed at the villagers' feet, making their expressions even more reverent and eerily fanatical.

The villagers who were carrying the corpse suddenly swung back in tacit understanding, as if by some momentum, they threw the corpse of the woman wrapped in white cloth into the water—

Yuan Yuxue's pupils widened slightly-

He took a step forward, and suddenly as if he felt something, he froze in place, his expression extremely calm and flat.

In that moment, something pressed against his shoulder.

Little by little, the wet moisture spread to the white skin exposed on the young man's shoulders and neck, and the coolness penetrated into his bones.

A strong watery smell and a slight smell of rotting meat came from the back.

……

The dull sound of falling water.

The river, which was still extremely quiet just now, seemed to suddenly rush and quickly swallowed up the body.

The schools of fish, as if they had been attracted by something special, began to become extremely active.

The people saw the tail of the fish turning out on the surface of the river, which seemed to be shining because of the reflection of the moonlight. That little bit of brilliance was quickly swallowed up by the current, and the fish seemed to sink to the bottom of the river in an instant.

In addition to the sound of the water washing over the riverbank, there was an extremely strange and undetectable sound of gnawing and chewing in the flowing water.

The sound was extremely slight, and it was easy to pass by if you didn't listen carefully.

It just fell on the player's ears, and for some reason, it was a subtle resemblance to the sound they had heard earlier of the villagers feasting on fish. The strange rhythm seemed to coincide with the past, and the repeated chewing sound even made their expressions slightly dazed.

Sounds ...... "fragrant".

It's delicious.

They remembered the villagers drinking the soup, grabbing the fish like wild beasts, holding the soup bowl, and pouring the hot soup into their throats.

At that time, they only felt weird and strange, but now that they think about it, they don't know why their mouths are full of revelry, and their stomachs twitch unbearably.

The suit struggled to quench this hunger and thirst, and diverted his attention to analyzing the current situation.

threw the body into the water......

There are some very niche funeral ceremonies, including fish burials......

The thinking of the suit was quickly dismantled.

These should have been the information that players were extremely concerned about, but at this time, it was as if his whole body and mind had fallen into the lake with those swimming fish.

Some people didn't even notice the movement of the bodies being thrown into the lake.

They were just staring at the crystal clear water almost obsessively, and when they didn't see the fish, and the sound of chewing had calmed down, an unspeakable rage rose up.

The hunger that comes back from inside their bodies almost drives them crazy.

They are like the most terminally ill and dehumanizing addicts, their backs arched, their internal organs squeezing and exploding, endless pain invading their brains for a long time, and finally reason tells them that there is only one way to end this suffering.

Fish.

Belongs, mine, fish.

This extremely abnormal state of frenzy even made the players unconsciously seem to take a few steps forward without any scruples.

The soles of his shoes crushed countless soft weeds, and the blades of grass were bent and bent down. Although there are props to disguise it, the villagers can't see the players, but only if they don't make a sound.

The sound of branches and leaves being trampled can only be said to be deafening in the extreme silence of the night.

Such a sound was enough for the players to be exposed.

But I don't know if it's because the villagers are also paying all their attention to the river, and they don't seem to notice the slight noise on the other side.

Their eyes were still frenetic, staring at the silver satin river floating under the moonlight, and the expressions on their faces were as vivid as if they would shed tears in the next moment.

As the leader among them, Lao Li lay on the ground and took two steps forward.

His body seemed to be completely buried in the soft earth, and with his elbows as support, he scooped up a handful of water from the seemingly clear lake, and then, as if in a hurry, he pressed his lips up, and sucked the water in his fingers desperately, like a thirsty traveler trapped in the desert, and finally met a spring of thirst.

Such a strange longing, especially when the river had buried his daughter's body not long ago, could hardly be described as terrifying.

But at this time, no one looked sideways at Lao Li's behavior.

The strangeness of those villagers naturally doesn't need to be said.

Players who should still belong to the category of normal people have also fallen into an extremely chaotic state.

Even at this moment, they have forgotten their mission, the identity of the player, and the fact that they are in the dungeon.

Almost all that was left was the fish in the river, and the most primitive, basic desire to eat.

Among these players who all looked weird and fanatical, only one of them behaved normally - no, perhaps it should be said that the current Yuan Yuxue is the most abnormal one.

Compared to the others, they couldn't help but walk forward, only Yuan Yuxue stayed in place.

He lay quietly in the thick weeds, his gaze different from the others.

The others were almost all looking at the river, or staring at the fish in the river, only Yuan Xuxue had a flat expression, but the focus of his eyes was the empty paulownia coffin.

The moonlight was so bright that it almost seemed to wash away all the filth, and even the runes carved on the coffin were reflected very clearly.

His dark eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes eventually drooped slowly, their eyes obscured as if they had lost focus.

Yuan Xuxue is obviously in a state where something is wrong, if it is discovered by others, they should immediately face the enemy and try to wake up Yuan Xuxue. It's a pity that almost everyone is in that extremely weird and fanatical state now, and naturally no one notices that Yuan Yuxue is haunted by ghosts at this time.

……

Yuan Yuxue herself, of course, noticed this.

The sudden increase in weight on his body came from the wet and sticky touch on his back, as well as the extremely strong smell of water and a little rot, which easily reminded Yuan Yuxue of the strangeness on his body at this time, who came from.

What's more, he has been locked because of the photo before, so it's better to lock the target.

He didn't say anything.

After being wrapped in that rich watery smell, the sight in front of him was suddenly deprived.

The extremely pure darkness occupied Yuan Yuxue's field of vision, and as far as the eye could see, it was the darkness that could not see the boundary.

It seems that since Yuan Yuxue did the quest for the dungeon, he has often encountered this state of being in a pure dark space.

It's just that in his nature, he is not born with a fear of darkness like humans, so he doesn't have special mood swings.

Even if this is not any inconvenience for him to perform the task - even if he is deprived of his visual ability, the tactile response of the combat robot has always been able to make Yuan Yuxue complete the task excellently.

He seemed to have moved away from the moonlight, the river, and the lush vegetation that grew on the moist land, and was retaken to a completely unfamiliar place.

Yuan Yuxue knew that he was probably pulled in...... An imaginary space, or as the words in the dungeon describe, are in a fantasy world.

Yuan Xuxue's judgment of illusion and reality has always had a unique advantage from robots.

But at this time, he did not immediately break this illusion.

Even if Yuan Yuxue knew very well that at the most critical time now, they could collect more dungeon information and exploration points through the funeral ritual...... But at this time, Yuan Xuxue, I don't know what to measure, and I didn't immediately break this illusion.

His gaze fell on a spot in the darkness.

It seems to be restricted by the rules, even in the illusion, Yuan Yuxue still can't speak.

He had a little common sense before trying to communicate with his consciousness -

Why brought me here?

There was no response.

Yuan Yuxue tilted her head slightly and continued to ask in her heart.

…… Or do you have something you want to tell me?

The faint smell of watery smell that seemed to linger around the side suddenly dissipated.

The pure darkness of the space was suddenly broken open and a bright opening was made, and the shattered spatial images were now gradually painted with new colors.

A large patch of color was blurred in front of him, and Yuan Yuxue was restricted from moving, and he stood in place, still unable to move. But you can clearly see the picture that is pieced together by those color blocks.

It is a very familiar scene.
