The fishing boat moves towards the shore.
Anxi wanted to find a quiet place. She walked behind the cockpit, leaned against the wall weakly, and wiped her wet hair with a towel.
"Are you okay?" Lu Qingqing came over.
Anxi looked up at her: "Well, it's not bad."
"It's all my fault... that these things happened to you, I'm sorry." Lu Qingqing lowered her head, looking very remorseful.
"This matter is because there is something wrong with your ex-boyfriend and has nothing to do with you." An Qian comforted Lu Qingqing.
But then she changed the topic and asked: "But you do have problems finding that kind of man as your boyfriend. How did you fall in love with him?"
"..."
Lu Qingqing was silent for a moment. She squatted down next to An Qian with a sad expression, and slowly said: "He was not like this when he first started chasing me. He was very good to me. He remembered what I like to eat and my menstrual period. He also boiled brown sugar water for me... I didn't expect that after dating, he gradually changed his appearance... I thought about our previous relationship and never broke up. I didn't expect that he actually beat me and wanted to catch me as bait for money. .”
"So that's it." Anxi understood.
This is also a very common routine. When a man is chasing a woman, he puts on a show, pretends to be affectionate and gentle, and then reveals his true nature when he catches her. The woman, on the other hand, misses the old relationship and never breaks up with her until something bad happens.
Fortunately, Lu Qingqing was lucky and met three kind-hearted girls, Cheng Nuan, Zhang Yichen, and Liu Ningxin, who were willing to help her.
Anxi: "Then you have to be very careful when looking for a boyfriend in the future."
Lu Qingqing shook her head: "No, I'm not going to find another boyfriend in the future."
"I used to rely too much on him. Even the attack props I got after clearing the dungeon were given to him because I felt that men were stronger than me. It was only when I gave the props to him and let him protect me that I felt at ease. Now that I think about it, I was really stupid. Now, with the props, I can obviously protect myself, so there is no need to rely on anyone else."
Speaking of which.
Lu Qingqing took out a small velvet box from the inner pocket of her clothes.
She stuffed the box into Anxi's arms and said: "This is the initial item I got when I first entered the game. I have never used it. I give it to you as a thank you gift for saving me. You must accept it." .”
Anxi took it and opened the velvet box. Inside were two silver rings set with small diamonds.
[Props obtained: "True Meaning of Love" diamond ring x2]
["The True Meaning of Love" Diamond Ring:
Love is salvation at all costs.
When two rings are worn on two people's hands at the same time, no matter how far apart you are, even if they are in different worlds, you can go to their side immediately by calling their name. (This prop is a one-time item)]
"Disposable prop?" Anxi was surprised, "You and your ex-boyfriend have never used this prop?"
"Never used it." Lu Qingqing shook her head, "I bought this ring, but he didn't want to wear it, saying it was too effeminate for a man not to wear a ring. Now that I think about it, he might be worried that others would know he has a girlfriend."
Lu Qingqing sneered as she spoke, not sure whether she was laughing at her ex-boyfriend or herself.
An Qian looked at Lu Qingqing and didn't know what to say. She reached out and patted her shoulder, saying nothing.
"You guys here?"
Zhang Yichen also walked to the cockpit and looked at An Qian: "I've been looking for you for a long time."
After saying that, she took something out of her pocket and handed it to Anxi.
Anxi took it and found several colorful balloons.
[Props obtained: Colorful Balloons x5]
[Colorful Balloon: As long as it is full of air, it can fly with any item. The heavier the item, the more balloons are needed. (reusable)】
Zhang Yichen touched her hair and said sheepishly: "Originally, it was promised that the money for fishing would be 50-50 cents, but the few of us didn't catch a few fish at all, so we couldn't share many ghost coins with you... So I gave my props to Please make some amends, I hope you won’t dislike it.”
"How could that be?" Anxi put the balloon into her bag, "The description of this prop is quite useful."
"That's good." Zhang Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, then sat down against Lu Qingqing.
The three of them sat together in the cockpit and looked at the sky quietly.
"It's not good! It's not good!" Cheng Nuan suddenly ran over with the crystal ball in her arms, followed by Liu Ningxin and Li Zihua.
An Qian sighed helplessly. She originally wanted to find a quiet place to stay, but she didn't expect these people to gather around her one after another.
"What's wrong?" An Qian asked anxious Cheng Nuan.
"Look at my crystal ball!" Cheng Nuan raised the crystal ball in front of An Qian, "It predicted a new picture!"
A picture is reflected in the light blue crystal ball like water.
They were a group of standing people, with incredibly long and thin hands and feet, as if they had been hungry for several years.
The picture looks upward, but the heads of this group of people are in the shape of fish heads, as if human skin is attached to the fish skull. The blue blood vessels on the skin are clearly visible, and their bodies are dripping with mucus.
Anxi frowned and looked at the crystal ball.
Suddenly, she noticed the jewelry on the wrist of one of the fish-men.
It was a gold watch, very vulgar, and at first glance it looked like the style only the nouveau riche would choose.
Anxi remembered seeing this gold watch there.
...It's on the village chief's wrist!
Anxi remembered that after she eliminated the giant fish baby, the system did not prompt the instance to collapse, which proved that the curse had not been completely eliminated.
It seems that the remaining curse is related to the villagers.
"Ah! Not good!"
Liu Ningxin suddenly let out a scream. She was looking towards the shore with a telescope and shouted: "It seems that all the villagers are standing on the shore!"
When An Qian heard this, she reached out and borrowed the telescope from Liu Ningxin.
From the perspective of the telescope, the villagers stood in a row on the edge of the beach with expressionless faces. They looked straight and sinisterly towards the sea, motionless, as if waiting for the return of a certain ship.
They haven't turned into the fish-men in the crystal ball prediction screen yet, but that will happen sooner or later.
Judging from their attitude of launching an army to investigate, they must have discovered that the giant fish babies have been eliminated.
After returning the telescope to Liu Ningxin, An Qian stood up, walked quickly into the cab, found Chu Qingyan and said, "Let's not dock at the dock, find a secluded place to park the ship on the island."
"Okay." Chu Qingyan turned the steering wheel and changed the driving route without asking any further questions.
Anxi ran out again and told others about her plan.
"I am looking for something that is black and red in color and shaped like an octopus leg. I will notify you immediately when I find it, right?" Li Zihua concluded.
An Qian nodded: "Yes, once we reach the shore, we will work in groups of two or three to turn the village upside down. This is related to whether we can successfully get out of this dungeon, so everyone must be careful."
"good."
"Oh, I see."
Everyone responded, with drums beating in their hearts and nervously looking at the island in the distance.
The shape of the island is already vaguely visible.
The fishing boat slowly stopped towards the woods on the back of the island.
