she became a god in a dream

There were waves on the calm river, the low sky seemed to be about to storm, and a fishy smell mixed with mud and water oscillated in the air.

The river lights flickered on and off, like a person's erratic breathing.

What happened at the moment Eugene cried, the underwater coils were entwined, and the hemp ropes stained with dark red blood clung to each other, growing from the window of the sunken ship, like huge vines stretching to the bottom of the ship on the water .

"Let's leave first." Eugene suggested with red eyes, "The sheriff is still breathing, which means the situation is not serious, and we have to stop the loss in time."

The ship shook more and more, and Shen Dong's scarlet pupils began to bleed again.

She looked at the fragility and sadness on the young man's face, and her head throbbed with pain.The singing began to echo on the river again, and there was a sense of sadness in the destruction.

The monsters in the water couldn't board the boat easily, and they didn't dare to go down rashly.

It all seemed to be at a dead end.

Shen Dong looked at Eugene's face, carefully went through his story in his mind, and found many contradictions.

"Let's head back then." She glanced at Kaiser, who steered the ship away from the wreck.

The lit candles can block her peeping, and she has no way of knowing how many monsters are hiding under the boat at the moment.But the surging waves seem to answer this question indirectly.

At the moment when the ship turned, Shen Dong unexpectedly remembered his experience on the Eternal Life.

It's really nostalgic.

It's just that such a big wave, once set off, it will surge like a tall building, and the Black Sea, which blends with the night sky, seems to be hard to see again.

How many monsters can hide in the river below?
It can't be bigger than Higgs, right?
When she touched it, Eugene, who was huddled in the corner and pretended to be weak and harmless, suddenly twitched, his eyes were covered with a layer of white mist, and the two eyeballs became cloudy.

A large amount of transparent water oozes from his skin, which smells like river water.

On the boat, Eugene grabbed his neck violently and howled in pain: "Help me quickly! Water, a lot of water!"

The lifeguard wanted to approach Eugene to rescue him, but was stopped by Shen Dong.

She wiped the blood from the corners of her eyes and squinted at Eugene's shimmering head.There seemed to be something glowing quietly inside, like the tail of a firefly.

The light overflowed through Eugene's open eyes.

The singing suddenly became louder.

There was a sound of water breaking, and a dark yellow shadow pierced through the back of Eugene's head like a fishhook thrown out, and suddenly tightened!

Shen Dong's pupils narrowed, and he saw Eugene's broken head in the splashing water, and a dim yellow river lantern was faintly shining in the red and white human face.

And that dark yellow shadow was actually two twisted hemp ropes!

Eugene turned out to be the bait cast by the monsters in the river. At this moment, they pulled the fishing line, and Eugene hugged the edge of the boat tightly with both arms.

"boom--"

The boat tilted and turned upside down on the river under the witness of countless river lights.

Shen Dong blinked. In front of her, the dark yellow hemp ropes looked like schools of fish gathered together, swimming in the icy cold river as if they were alive.

A hundred meters away, a huge black figure was lying on the river bed, exuding a strong death intent.

The lifeguard who fell into the water was the first to rescue the sheriff, holding his breath, and trying to swim towards the surface.The pierced Eugene was still tightly attached to the boat, the dark yellow rope moved and exerted force again.

Cather's body glowed with a faint golden light, and a dagger cut off Eugene's head.In an instant, the head was pulled by the rope into the deep darkness at the bottom.

The scarlet blood burst into a blood flower in the river, and tiny bubbles burst out from all over the ship.

She took a look at Shen Dong, then waved her hand to turn up the boat, and first pulled the lifeguard and the police chief aboard.

Groups of dark yellow ropes are attacking the defensive formation like crazy, like fish that are not afraid of death, hitting the solid golden light, causing crosses to go out one by one.

But these attacks were no different from scratching an itch for the sane Shen Dong.

She looked warily at every shadow in the water, guarding against the burnt monster.

"Brother~"

A crisp female voice sounded from below.

She lowered her head and saw a severely decomposed corpse holding Eugene's head, laughing like silver bells.

"Shen Dong!"

Above the river above the head, Kaiser's distorted call came.Immediately afterwards, an arm stretched down.

Shen Dong red eyes, thinking that this is a trick.

She took one last look at Eugene's bulging cloudy eyeballs, swung her arms, and swam toward the surface.She touched the hard and slippery board of the ship, and the moment she surfaced, she saw a broken ship crashing into her at full speed!
"Hahaha-"

At the bow, a scorched figure stood upright, with a series of laughs from his throat.

The moment the giant ship hit, Shen Dong controlled the river water and pushed the boat behind him away.As for herself, pierced by the shadow of the ship, a sharp pain rose from between her brows, tearing her soul apart.

That pain carried the memory of countless people, and that huge ship was made up of the hatred and pain of sacrificing the soul boy.

In the flashing memories, Shen Dong saw another version of the story in Eugene's mouth, a completely true version.

The town of Hagen has always had the custom of offering sacrifices to the river god. Those selected soul boys were tied to death on a boat and pushed deep into the river.Eugene, who was afraid of death, exchanged his "jackpot" for his sister.

This evil custom did not completely stop until five years ago. The reason was that the jihad started, and Hegn was close to the border. Most of the young people in the town responded to the king's call and rushed to the front line of the battlefield.

Immediately afterwards, Ron was sent to the town by the Knights of the Cross.Until recently, there were frequent changes in the town, and he had no choice but to submit an application to the Knights.

The most dramatic thing is that there used to be a psychic big fish in this river.

It has a little ability to pray for rain and break waves.It often jumps out of the water at night, showing its posture under the bright moonlight, and the belly of the fish utters a cry similar to "Hagen".

This is the origin of the superstition of the townspeople.

When the wind and waves hit, the faint sound of "Hagen" sounded underwater, and then the turbulent ship calmed down.In the eyes of the sailors, this was of course an out-and-out miracle.

But it rained continuously for a week that day, and the big fish swam all the way to the sea along the soaring river water for a walk.

It took a long time to walk around this circle, which was just a blink of an eye for Big Yu, but ten years have passed for the residents of the town.

In the past ten years, some big people heard the rumors of Big Fish and came to the town, but they got nothing. In the past ten years, many people died in disasters.

When the big fish, who had had enough fun, returned to this familiar river, he happened to see a bamboo raft that sank into the river. On the extremely narrow and short bamboo raft, a human died with a distorted face.

The big fish was very heartbroken, he liked the creatures that chirped above his head and imitated his song from time to time.

"Higon~" "Higon~"

The big fish, who was excluded by the group because of the strange call, had an inexplicable sense of belonging when he heard the call of the human being.

Since then, it has worked harder to help sailors in shipwreck, and even called rain in times of drought.

The residents of the small town of Hagen were ecstatic, thinking that they had won the joy of the big fish, and they became more enthusiastic about offering sacrifices to the river god ever since.Big Yu let go of the rope on the soul boy, but they thought it was the soul boy's resistance.

I don't know where it started, clusters of flames ignited on the bamboo raft floating deep in the river.

Is this a human funeral?

The big fish watched in the water, it spent 100 years and never figured out these strange creatures.

After all, the big fish is just a fish. When it dreamed back at midnight, it could not forget the waves of the sea, but it also did not want to leave this ordinary river. It died on a stormy night.

Its soul did not swim to the afterlife, but stayed in the depths of the river, continuing to bless the residents of the small town of Hagen.

If you call me with my voice, I think I would not be willing to touch the afterlife.

The afterlife is a monster with many hands and many legs, and all creatures touched by it will lose their memory.

But as time went by, the resentment of the soul boy's death was entwined on every crystal clear scale of the big fish, countless hatreds were glued to the tip of the big fish's swinging tail, and the backlog of hatred blinded the big fish's eyes.

It can no longer jump out of the water in the dark and twist its body in the moonlight.In the end, it couldn't even hear the human call, only a distant whimpering song every three years.

What comes with the singing is a heavier soul.It gradually couldn't even swim anymore.

Then came the disaster.

She made a pact with the painful big fish.
