The everlasting candle light illuminated the black water, the singing disappeared, and Shen Dong opened his eyes.

A voice came from the bow of the ship, and she looked over while wiping the blood off her face.

"No, you..."

Kaiser woke up leisurely, sat up straight by the side of the boat, and his eyes changed when he saw the mess around him.She looked at Shen Dong who was standing in the middle of the boat, and spoke after deliberating,
"I... It seems that our mission this time is not to silence the mouth, right? Could it be that your mission is different from mine?"

As soon as he said this, Cather regretted it a little.After all, Shen Dong's face was covered with blood, his pupils were scarlet as if they were bloodshot, and he looked like he couldn't communicate.

There were still two bloody corpses lying on the bed. The sheriff fell on the seat with his head down, and his neck should have been twisted.

She swallowed, and whispered: "Actually, my position is not firm..."

Shen Dong snapped his fingers, and the unconscious lifeguard and Eugene woke up slowly.But the sheriff who was sleeping on the seat was motionless, only his chest was still rising and falling slightly.

With a few words, she brought the thrill of the moment to a close, and looked around the sheriff, only to find that a candle had disappeared.

What are these townspeople hiding?
Eugene, who had just climbed off the board, felt a gravity pressing on his shoulders, pressing his face firmly against the river.

The bright candlelight clearly brought light to people, but Eugene, the witness, saw dead bodies floating under the river lamp. An angry human skin balloon.

A strong stench overflowed from under the skin of the corpse.

A human skin balloon quietly turned around under the beating of the water waves.

It was his younger sister who died early!
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-" Eugene, who was pinned by his shoulders, cried out in despair, his body swaying wildly like an eel nailed to death by iron nails.

"Tell me why the river monster wants candlelight."

Shen Dong exerted force on his hands, bringing Eugene's face closer to the water surface, and now the young man's struggle became more intense.

But soon, terrified, he realized that the struggle was futile.

The lifeguard wanted to help, but was pinned down on the seat by the light blue glow.

As for Kaiser, she looked at the river lantern on the water, ignoring the horrific cries beside her ears, and said in her heart: Hey, this river lantern is really bright!
"I say! I say!" cried Eugene.

A tiny flame ignited between Shen Dong's fingers, and she pressed against the seam of the boat to clean up the burnt monster's flesh and blood. She sat opposite the young man, with the light and shadow of the candle flame fluctuating on her face, her expression was inexplicable.

In the singing just now, the lifeguard saw the person who fell into the water, Kaiser recited the rules of espionage silently in his heart, and the sheriff should have passed the candle to the underwater monster.

As for Eugene, he was frightened, as if he had done something wrong.

Shen Dong kneaded the dry eye sockets with one hand, she was just defrauding Eugene, she met an unexpected joy unexpectedly.

"For a long time, the town of Hagen has had the custom of offering sacrifices to big fish..." Eugene coughed violently, turned his shoulders, and said in a low voice.

As he narrated, the surrounding river rippled in circles, bumping back and forth between countless river lights.A large amount of rough hemp rope rustled out from the huge shipwreck skeleton under the water surface.

"In order to pray for good wind and rain, and the king's health. Every three years, when the first shoot grows from the big tree at the entrance of the town, a river god sacrifice will be held in the town.

The sacrifices are the girls and boys in the town who are over sixteen and under eighteen.They will draw lots for this honorable and sacred task.

Not everyone can take a spiritual boat, sail into the depths of the river, and get the approval and gift of the big fish.

In the depths of the river, they only need to serve the big fish well, and they can live comfortably for a lifetime.That is a lifetime of happiness, and what those girls and boys need to pay is just a dusty body..."

Eugene's voice became hoarse, and drops of transparent water fell on the wet board.

"Six years ago, I won the first lottery in the selection of the soul boy. I was very happy, but after a short thought, I decided to give this precious and hard-won opportunity to my sister.

I went to the river god sacrifice that time, and it was very grand, and my sister was wearing a new dress.With the singing of the crowd and the rain of flower petals, I boarded the ship.

She had a great laugh.Surrounded by countless river lanterns, the boat gradually sailed to the depths of the river. "

As he spoke, he covered his face and began to cry bitterly, crying out of breath: "I don't know, and I don't know where things went wrong.

The big boat sank so suddenly, those dead soul boys appeared at night, wandered in the water, climbed up from the shore, trying to find a dragged river lantern.

The first thing the soul boy did when he got the river lantern was to drag the townspeople into the water.

Just now in the river, I saw my sister, that's why I lost my composure,"

"All this is a pagan conspiracy! They not only let the soul boy die violently and die in the water, but also keep the big fish away from the town, making happiness and peace farther and farther away from us."

The lifeguard spoke violently.

And Eugene was out of breath from crying.

Strands of crude hemp ropes under the water suddenly rioted, twisting their bodies like sea snakes, stirring up waves.A large area of ​​the river lights floating on the water suddenly went out, and then turned on again.

"Let's get out of here first." Kaiser frowned and looked at the water.

From Eugene's words, she seemed to see the ignorant residents of the whole town.

What about the river god sacrifice? If there were really positive mysterious fluctuations in this river, the members of the Knights of the Cross would have drained the river long ago.

Not to mention the nobles in the city, their boring lives lack the stimulation of such strange objects.

But what about the results?

This task was pushed left and right, up and down, and because there was no lure, it was finally assigned to her and Shen Dong forcibly.Jihad is tight, and some people are only thinking of profiting.

What a crime.

Lord of Glory, please send down the divine thunder and punish these idlers!
Shen Dong glanced at Kaiser.Still so many words.

She approves of most of them, but is skeptical of some.

First, the first doubt.There are monsters made of dark yellow hemp ropes in the river, and they are entangled together, forming the shape of a strange fish.

When she cut it with a knife, she felt exactly the same as the hemp rope.

Secondly, when she pressed Eugene's shoulder, the man looked into the water with horror and fear in his eyes, without any joy of seeing his relatives.

In all fairness, she was able to hold the hand of the mutated "Qin Liu", even if "Qin Liu" turned into a bloody monster at that time.

For my own sister, no matter how scary she looks, it doesn't mean that there is no kindness at all.

In summary, Eugene lied.
