Nightmare Attack

The size of this city exceeded Fatty's imagination, and until he stepped on the uneven stone streets, he still looked like he had seen a ghost.

Most of the buildings are made of stone, and it can be seen that they have experienced a long time.

Some corners even tend to be rounded.

Two deep ruts are left in the middle of the street, which were formed by transporting bulk goods over many years. They are like a dividing line, dividing the entire city into two.

Jiang Cheng looked around while walking.

Time is like a carving knife, leaving its own traces on this weird sea city.

In addition to the heavy feeling of time, another thing that made several people uncomfortable was the overly dazzling lights of this city.

When they first enter, they can't even open their eyes.

The fat man could only walk with his eyes squinted, so that he couldn't see the road clearly and almost slipped at a corner.

Fortunately, Jiang Cheng had quick eyes and quick hands and gave him a hand.

The moment he helped the fat man up, Jiang Cheng saw a layer of dark green stuff under his feet, which was very small and thin, like moss.

"You must be tired too," the blond man turned around and said in a not-so-enthusiastic tone: "The people in our town knew you were coming and specially prepared some food. If you don't mind,"

"Thank you very much, mayor," Chenran put his hands in his pockets and his tone was not flattering.

The blond man looked at him twice, then nodded, "Please come with me."

Next, the three of them came to a square surrounded by many men. The area was very large. The fat man roughly estimated that it was almost half the size of a standard playground.

There were many people gathered in the square, including men, women and children, and some women holding their children to watch the excitement. Everyone seemed to be admiring some kind of rare animal.

A pair of curious eyes looked at them.

"Doctor," the fat man whispered, "do they look like us watching animals in the zoo?"

He paused and continued: "If I'm not wrong, I'll probably throw food at us soon, and then watch us fight for food for fun."

Since meeting the doctor, Fatty has had more problems.

Once he encounters a relatively stressful situation, his mouth is less controlled by his brain and he likes to say nonsense words involuntarily. He seriously suspects that the doctor infected him.

But the good thing is that it will greatly reduce his nervousness.

"Fat man," Jiang Cheng replied with the same voice: "If you tell me, they will probably tie you up and roast you on the fire until it becomes sizzling and oily, and then burn you with a razor blade. Will eating affect your current mood? "

The fat man immediately closed his mouth, and the blood on his originally red face faded completely.

Under the arrangement of the blond man, the crowd of onlookers dispersed, and everyone found a seat to sit down. Only then did the fat man see that there were many stone tables made of disk-shaped stones behind the crowd.

It's not high, just enough to sit cross-legged on the ground. There are some indiscernible dishes and other things on it, which are full of fish, shrimps, crabs and shells.

"Please," the blond man walked to the stone table in the middle and sat down.

The three people from Jiang Cheng were not polite and sat down opposite the blond man.

Each of them had a straw mat under their buttocks, and Chenran always looked leisurely and contented. The fat man glanced at him, feeling wary of him.

The welcoming ceremony didn't officially begin until a woman carrying a jar came up and filled the bowls in front of them one by one.

The fat man stared at the largest crab on the middle plate and couldn't help but swallow his saliva, but no one ate it first, and he wouldn't dare to eat it until he died, except for the blond man.

Because if it was poisoned, then the blond man must have the antidote.

Chenran opened a crab very politely and started to eat it slowly.

Then

The fat man stared at the largest crab and a hand appeared in his field of vision. The hand pinched the crab's right claw, shook it, and then threw it in front of him.

"Eat," Jiang Cheng said calmly.

The fat man immediately started eating it very rudely.

There were always two women serving behind him. When the wine in the bowl was gone, it was filled immediately. There was also as much food as fish and shrimp, but the only drawback was that there were no fruits and vegetables.

After the fat man took a big sip of wine, he couldn't help but frown. He didn't know what the wine was made from, but it always had an indescribable fishy smell.

After Chenran ate two crabs, he threw away the crab legs, squinted at the blond man who had never spoken, and said, "The mayor invited us here. I'm afraid it's not just about eating and drinking."

Hearing this, the blond man put down the wine bowl in his hand. He didn't eat much. He just drank in silence most of the time, looking very worried.

"You are the ones chosen by it. Only you can help us escape from the curse." He raised his head, his eyes as heavy as ever.

"Of course," he continued: "This is also saving yourselves. After all, you can't leave here unless the curse is lifted."

Chenran leaned back and continued very casually: "Then please tell the mayor about the curse."

Speaking of the curse, Fatty let go of the crab in his hand.

"This matter started decades ago," the blond man exhaled. "Since our ancestors, we have lived by the sea, near the forest, and we mainly rely on fishing at sea to make a living."

"Of course," the blond man added, "prey in the forest and things like berries are also very good."

"But until one day, a boy was born to a family in the village." At this point, the blond man's face began to change, and his voice became trembling, "No, that was not a human child, it was a monster! A monster. !”

After hearing the word monster, Jiang Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, while Chenran tapped his fingers on the table and paused slightly.

The word "monster" doesn't sound like a word that people who live by the sea can say, but more like the words of people in the church.

The weird spire building slowly appeared in Jiang Cheng's mind.

"Since its birth, everything has changed. Our ships have frequently crashed. Sometimes, even on a sunny day, a storm will suddenly arise, overturning our ship, or even tearing it apart!"

"People who entered the forest to hunt, and berry pickers began to have frequent accidents. Those who entered the forest without incident, all disappeared!"

"Later, we gathered the most experienced hunters and went into the forest together to see what happened, but they were just like the people before them! They never returned."

"Not until a few days later!"

The blond man seemed to recall an extremely horrifying scene, and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he even spilled wine on his body without realizing it.
