I Created Cthulhu In Naruto

Chapter 39 Fish and Gold

"Matthew is back!"

"Matthew is back!"

The villagers were all smiling, and surrounded Matthew one by one, as if Matthew was a great hero.

Relying on the trade of merchant ships over the years, Matthew has gained a good reputation in many coastal villages and island countries, and Matthew chose to return to the poor fishing village at this time, which is naturally considered a return home.

At this time, Yushan was about to stand up to welcome Matthew with a smile on his face, but Zhimei held his sleeve by the side.

Zhimei lowered her head to signal her daughter beside her. Yuhuo's young body was lying on Zhimei's knee pillow, avoiding Matthew's tall body with a face of horror.

It seems that Matthew's frightening way of appearance frightened the young Yuhuo.

In order to appease the frightened Yuhuo, Yushan sat down half of the body that had already stood up, but his eyes still did not leave Matthew.

The envy in Yushan's eyes is not concealed at all.

The black raincoat on Matthew's body is a high-end product that no one in the fishing village can afford. Yushan is very envious.

Matthew is obviously a few years older than himself, but the years have not carved too many marks on his face, and now Matthew looks stronger than Yushan, Yushan is very envious.

The most important thing is that it is raining outside now, and Matthew still comes to Jiro Island, which means that Matthew must be on a large merchant ship that can withstand the rainstorm, and Yushan is very envious.

Of course, Yushan is not the only one in the fishing village who admires Matthew.

Matthew briefly exchanged greetings with the villagers around him, and then walked to the Dragon King statue along the passage left in the middle.

The village chief looked at Matthew approaching, with complicated emotions, and didn't know what to say.

At the beginning, when Matthew wanted to go to sea, the village chief strongly opposed it, but now that Matthew has returned home, the village has fallen into a state of being unable to solve the problem.

The situation is high and low.

But Matthew completely ignored the village chief, walked up to the statue of the Dragon King, spit on the ground contemptuously, pointed at the statue of the Dragon King and shouted at the villagers: "You still worship such useless things!"

"Worshiping this kind of rubbish deserves to be called faith?"

Matthew's sudden speech frightened all the villagers, and the village chief quickly stopped him and said, "Shut up! How could you be so rude to Lord Dragon King!"

Ignoring the village chief, Matthew continued: "Every time you pray for this thing like lambs, has it answered your prayers?"

"Has belief in the Dragon King enriched your life?"

"Your life is still difficult, this thing doesn't care about your life!"

"The Dragon King has never responded to your request, it is just letting your life and death go!"

Matthew's shocking speech stunned the villagers, and Matthew suddenly raised his hands up.

"And I know a god who can truly manifest."

"Follow me! Follow me to believe in the true God in the sea!"

"Only the true God can give us fish and gold that we can eat forever!"

"Only by believing in the true God can the True God grant you shelter, become the people of God, and go to the kingdom of God.

"There, you can even get immortality!"

Click!

A ray of thunder broke into the Dragon King Temple again, and the purple light shone on Matthew's face.

Matthew's eye sockets were flushed with excitement, his eyeballs were bloodshot, protruding in an incredible state, and his crazy smile made the corners of his mouth rise to an incredible angle.

The children in the village were so frightened by Matthew's terrifying face that they immediately covered their eyes. The village chief also reacted at this time and shouted: "Come here! Get rid of this heretic who blasphemes Lord Dragon King!"

Only then did the villagers in the fishing village react, and several men stepped forward and grabbed Matthew's shoulders and rushed out.

Matthew didn't resist much, but walked out and shouted to the surrounding villagers: "If you don't believe me,

Feel free to come to the port to find me at night, I can prove it to you! "

"At that time, you will know who is the true god in the sea!"

Matthew's voice was drowned out by the sound of rain, and the worship ceremony could no longer go on, so the village chief had to dismiss all the villagers.

...

When she got home, Zhimei went to comfort Yuhuo to sleep, while Yushan who was sitting at the table frowned and didn't say a word.

After a while, Zhimei came over, looked at Yushan's expression, and knew that Yushan was thinking.

"Still thinking about what happened just now?"

"Um."

"When the village chief was about to disband, he said that Matthew was a brainwashed heretic, and he wouldn't let the villagers get close to him, and he would drive him away at dawn tomorrow."

"I know." Yushan nodded first, then turned to say: "But the village has been poor for a long time, and Lord Dragon King has never responded."

"Every time I go to sea this month, I will pray to Lord Dragon King to catch more fish, but he can't even satisfy me with this request, not once."

"If the Dragon King doesn't respond to us again, our whole family will starve to death."

Yushan uttered a series of complaints, and the resentment of not being able to catch fish every day for a month has accumulated a lot.

Zhimei also knew her husband's depression, walked over and hugged Yushan's back gently, and said softly: "If you are going to the port at night, then go."

Zhimei knows that Yushan has a very strong knot in his heart, if he doesn't untie this knot with his own hands, this knot will become more and more dead.

So let Yushan confirm it with his own eyes.

Although this can't improve life, at least it can make Yushan feel more relaxed.

For his wife's understanding, Yushan didn't say much, but stroked Zhimei's hand to express his gratitude.

...

As night fell, darkness enveloped the entire sea.

The torrential rain has long since stopped, and there are only some small waves on the sea surface beating the fishing boats docked at the port.

On the shore, dark figures were quietly walking towards the port.

These people are undoubtedly the villagers of the fishing village. Although they did not express their position during the day, they have long held resentment towards the poor life in their hearts.

These villagers still have no idea about the true god of the ocean that Matthew said, but Matthew once said that this true god can bestow them with countless fish and inexhaustible gold, and these villagers still clearly remember it.

When he came to the port, Matthew had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing that only nine villagers came, Matthew did not show any disappointment, but directly invited the nine people to his boat.

Nine people boarded the boat, including Yushan.

Yushan saw a huge black shadow on the sea in the distance, and knew that it was Matthew's merchant ship.

Because Matthew's boat is too big, the water level in the port of Jiro Island is too shallow, making it inconvenient to dock, so the merchant ship is parked a little farther away, and the small boat he is now sitting on is for the convenience of taking people ashore.

The nine villagers in the small boat did not need to help rock the boat, because two of Matthew's crew took the job of the boatman.

Yushan peeked at Matthew's two crew members by the moonlight.

Both of them wore the clothes of ordinary sailors, but they both wore huge peaked caps on their heads, and high collars to cover their necks. They also wore sunglasses in the dark. I don’t know if they can see the sea clearly. .

The crew members rowed the boat expressionlessly, their stiff movements seemed not so flexible, and they showed no desire to have a conversation with the villagers.

Just now a villager wanted to talk to one of the crew members, but the crew just glanced at the villagers and continued rowing. Finally, Matthew came out to answer the villagers' questions.

Suddenly, the hull shook, and the two boatmen steered the boat to make a huge turn.

Matthew hurriedly comforted the frightened villagers, "It's okay, it's okay, we hit a rock."

The villagers breathed a sigh of relief, but Yushan's heart tensed up.

Because Matthew's crew moved so much just now, the shadow of his body did not cover his hands, and his entire hand was instantly exposed to the moonlight.

Yushan saw this hand.

It was a very strange hand.

There are several yellow-black bumps on the pale skin on the back of the hand, the joints of the five fingers are abnormally swollen, and the webs only seen in aquatic animals can be faintly seen between the fingers.

Can a human hand grow like this?

Am I wrong?

It must be a mistake. After all, the environment here is so dark, it is normal to be wrong.

Yushan quickly looked away, he didn't dare to look around anymore, he only dared to look at the plank under his feet until the boat docked.

"Come down." Matthew said to the villagers.

"This is not your ship, is it?"

"This is Ghost World Island!" The villagers looked at the surrounding environment and immediately recognized where it was.

"Didn't you let us see your fish and gold? Why didn't you take us to your boat instead of bringing us to such a ghostly place?"

"Are you kidding us?"

Matthew laughed at the angry villagers, and then said: "What I want to prove is not how many fish and gold I have, but how much fish and gold you can bring to you by accepting my belief."

"Come with me, and I can prove it all to you."

"What I have, you can have too."

"As long as you believe in him, believe in that lord, believe in the only true god in this sea!"

Under the half-believing eyes of the villagers, Matthew walked onto a huge reef on the shore, took out a strangely shaped gold ornament from his arms and held it up high, singing hymns that the villagers could not understand.

Matthew's expression became more and more excited, and the weird gold ornaments in his hands shone golden under the light of the torches in the villagers' hands.

As the chanting speed in Matthew's mouth became faster and faster, a strong wind blew on the sea as if cooperating with Matthew.

The sound of the howling wind did not overwhelm Matthew's singing, but seemed to encourage this wonderful singing, and the lyrics of the hymn became a little clearer in the ears of the villagers.

The content of the libretto is completely indistinguishable from the villagers' cognition. They only know that the rhythm is sometimes heavy and sometimes cheerful, sometimes like a mother's hand caressing the body, and sometimes like a devil's claws touching the soul.

The hymn was carried to the opposite bank by the strong wind, and the ethereal sound even reached the ears of the villagers waiting on the other bank.

At the same time, there was a gurgling sound in the water next to the huge reef of Ghost World Island, as if something was about to poke its head out of the sea.

The sound of gurgling water, obscure hymns, and whistling wind, these three sounds played a wonderful symphony in the ears of the villagers.

Faced with the intensifying ritual of summoning gods, the villagers' faces showed panic, their legs began to weaken uncontrollably, and the torch in their hands fell into the water with a bang, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

...

the next day.

The village chief brought the villagers to the shore, ready to drive the unwelcome Matthew out of the fishing village.

Matthew stood by the port with a calm expression. Facing the chasing away by the village chief and other villagers who are loyal followers of the Dragon King, Matthew had no intention of leaving at all. Instead, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This smile made the village chief and the others feel that they were not driving Matthew away, but that they were being held by the throat by Matthew.

Suddenly, the shouts of villagers came from the shallows next to the port.

"The tide is out!"

"Look! What is that white flower?"

"It's fish!"

"It's fish!"

"It's all fish!"

The shouts of several villagers in the shallows immediately attracted the attention of the villagers on the port side, and the village chief immediately ordered people to check what was going on.

When they came to the shallows, the villagers were surprised by what they saw.

The reefs in the shoal are densely packed with fish. These white fish are sent to the shoal by the high tide, but they do not leave when the tide ebbs, but stay on the shoal.

At this time, the number of fish on the shoal is so large that it can be directly filled with fish baskets. Fishing is as simple as filling rice from a pot.

Even if you are a fisherman who lives by the sea all your life, you will never see this scene once!

"Wow!"

Dozens of villagers rushed to the shoal recklessly, without any fish baskets at hand, they quickly took off their clothes, spread them out to hold the fish, and even tied up the cuffs of their trousers and stuffed fish into their waistbands.

Yushan was also one of them, frantically grabbing these rare fish or two from the crevices of the reef.

After catching almost all the fish in a reef pit, Yushan was about to turn his head to catch fish in the next reef pit when he suddenly saw a golden thing lying on the bottom of the reef pit.

Yushan immediately grabbed this thing out of the water, and then displayed it in the sun for viewing.

This is a strangely shaped golden ornament, engraved with a half-human, half-fish creature and clear water ripples.

It is easy to be fascinated by this ingenious alien-shaped carving, but at this moment Yushan is even more fascinated by the texture of this ornament.

"gold!"

"It's gold!"

When the villagers heard Yushan's shout, they hurriedly came to watch. After seeing the bright golden light under the sun, other villagers immediately joined the gold search team.

After a while, another villager announced that he had found gold from the shallows.

Another one.

Another...

And Yushan stood there all the time, holding up the golden jewelry and looking at it fascinatedly, completely forgetting the horrific scene he experienced yesterday.

...

Crazy villagers rushed to the shallows to harvest the fish and gold placed on the "dining table". Only the little girl Yuhuo was left on the shore because she was too young.

Yuhuo didn't look at the crazy adults on the shoal, but looked at Matthew who was still standing at the port.

At this moment, Matthew lowered his head to the water in front of him and moved his lips slightly, as if he was whispering something.

And on the surface of the water, a grayish green floating object was sometimes deep and sometimes shallow.
