"I'm sorry, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable. You guys eat first and I'll be right back!" Zhang Fan smiled awkwardly, waved his hands to everyone, then covered his stomach and stood up from his seat.
"May I ask the village chief, where is the toilet?" Zhang Fan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and pretended to have unbearable abdominal pain.
Seeing this scene, the bald man was dumbfounded. He pointed to the outside of the door and said with a smile: "The toilet is outside, you can see it when you go out and turn left!"
"Okay! Thank you, you can eat and drink well and don't worry about me!" Zhang Fan immediately left his seat, but before leaving, he cast a look at Zhao Ping.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Ping understood instantly and said to the bald man: "I'll go see him!" Then he left his seat and followed him out.
When the survivors saw Zhang Fan and the others leaving, they were filled with doubts, but they didn't say anything more.
As the saying goes, people have three urgent needs, which is normal. After Zhang Fan and the others left, these survivors continued to ask the bald man for a lot of information.
When they came outside, Zhang Fan looked around and saw that no one noticed them. He was slightly relieved. Then he waved to Zhao Ping and they got into a remote corner.
Then he described to him the scene where he just saw the mermaid. After hearing this, Zhao Ping narrowed his eyes, skillfully took out the silver-white pen from his pocket, played with it a few times in the palm of his right hand, and then said: "What this mermaid said may not be all true. For specific circumstances, we have to You can only know by verifying it yourself, and then make plans after verifying things accurately!"
"Seriously, Haitang Village is really troublesome! How about we go hide in the wilderness outside the village until the mission is over!" Zhang Fan scratched his head and complained.
There are scary mermaids in the bay outside, and in Haitang Village, according to the mermaids, there are not many good people.
It's not safe anywhere. He didn't know which one to believe was better. You say you believe in the mermaid side, but they are all cannibals there.
Just trust Haitang Village. The mermaid said that they will sacrifice themselves and others to the old tree at the entrance of the village tomorrow night.
To be honest, Zhang Fan is still inclined to believe in mermaids. If I had to say why, it was mainly because when he first came to this maze scene, he almost drowned in the sea water, and it was this mermaid who saved him.
As for the other party lying, Zhang Fan didn't think so. Because he was the only one who knew about falling into the water, there was a high probability that, as the mermaid said, she saved his life.
As for why the mermaid chose to save him, Zhang Fan felt that it was probably because of the clown's curse, and maybe it also made the mermaid fall in love with him.
Apart from this, Zhang Fan really couldn't think of any other reason.
"Your idea is not bad. Go to the wilderness outside and find a place to hide until the mission is over."
"In this way, whether it is the danger of Haitang Village or the attack of the mermaid, we can avoid it!" Zhao Ping strongly agreed with Zhang Fan's words.
This is indeed a good idea.
"Why don't you go outside for a walk now? Anyway, according to the village chief of Haitang Village, mermaids rest in the depths of the sea during the day. They don't dare to show their heads, and they also don't dare to go ashore, so it's more appropriate to go for a walk now! "Zhao Ping touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
"Go!" Zhang Fan nodded and said the word "go". Then he took the lead and walked outside the village entrance.
Twenty minutes passed and they finally reached the entrance of the village. Because the survivors' physical strength bonus cannot be used in this maze scene, they walk very slowly in order to save physical strength.
But when they passed the old tree wrapped in black emery cloth at the entrance of the village, Zhang Fan and Zhao Ping both became solemn.
If what the mermaid said is true, then this old tree is really too terrifying. As long as someone accidentally sees its true appearance, they will be deeply confused and can't help but want to hang themselves there. above.
What kind of tree is this? After staring at each other for a long time, Zhang Fan and the other two looked away, not daring to look further. Although this terrifying old tree was wrapped in black sandpaper, covering its appearance, no one could guarantee whether that terrifying power could penetrate the barrier and spread to the outside?
Don't be killed by the mermaid, but hanged on this tree in advance. That would be too frustrating. After walking out of Haitang Village, Zhang Fan and the others made a big circle, and followed the endless mountain road filled with dead trees and hay, and went back in a circuitous way.
But just after walking a short distance, they discovered that there were large blood stains on the messy ground.
And, as they went deeper into the island, the blood stains became thicker, until later... When Zhang Fan and the two walked forward for another ten minutes, their footsteps suddenly stopped, and their faces suddenly turned pale.
Because... I saw four or five disemboweled corpses lying crookedly not far ahead.
Looking at the clothes of these corpses, they turned out to be the same as the clothes worn by the survivors in this maze scene. They were down jackets from the human world.
At this moment, Zhao Ping's eyes suddenly opened wide and his breathing became rapid, because he recognized the appearance of one of the corpses.
The owner of this corpse is the person who was transported with him yesterday. At that time, the two of them appeared at the same time and talked to each other for a while. Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for a day, he actually died here.
"No! Get out of here!" Zhao Ping stared at the corpse on the ground in front of him for a few seconds. Suddenly he seemed to realize something, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly grabbed Zhang Fan's arm and backed away quickly.
Looking at the injuries on these corpses, they must have been attacked by some kind of beast-like ghost, and that's why they all died here.
Perhaps they had the same idea as Zhang Fan just now, and felt that Haitang Village was unsafe, so they planned to hide in this wilderness until the end of the mission world.
But who would have thought that in the process of evading, they would be attacked by even more terrifying ghosts and kill them all.
After death, the body was also disemboweled, and almost all the internal organs were removed. Just when Zhao Ping reminded Zhang Fan to leave quickly, suddenly, a change occurred in the next second.
Just listen, the four or five corpses that were lying on the ground crookedly and disemboweled suddenly emitted strange and piercing squeaking sounds at this moment, as if something was parasitic in their bodies.
The strange squeaking sound did not last long. As soon as Zhang Fan and the two ran less than 20 meters behind them, dozens of bloody crows, the size of an adult's fist, clattered and followed the corpse's quilt. The cut open belly rushed out and rushed towards Zhang Fan and the others.
Obviously, the terrifying ghosts that killed the four or five survivors were these bloody crows.
"Oops!!" Zhang Fan inadvertently glanced back while running. When he saw the group of bloody crows flying towards them quickly, he was instantly frightened to the point where his face turned pale and his lips were trembling a little.
What are these crows? Why did it fly out of the corpse's belly? For a moment, Zhang Fan was puzzled.
Of course, there was no room for too much thinking, because those bloody crows were getting closer and closer to them, only less than five meters away.
No matter how fast they are, they still run on two legs and are no match for two-legged birds.
Zhao Ping glanced back and saw the group of bloody crows approaching. He was frightened and turned pale. He felt a little regretful. He really shouldn't have risked his life and ran out. He should have stayed quietly in Haitang Village.
Although Haitang Village is not very safe, no matter how dangerous it is, it is far less scary than here in the wilderness.
Just when the blood-colored crows were about to pounce on Zhang Fan and the two of them, a beautiful song suddenly boomed from the distant bay, causing ripples in the waves.
The singing sound spread rapidly towards the wilderness behind the island as if it was targeted. In the blink of an eye, it has arrived.
Then the beautiful singing voice appeared in the shape of a transparent wave, passing over Zhang Fan and the other two, and directly swept the terrifying group of blood-colored crows into it. With just one encounter, all the blood-colored crows were stunned, one after another. , fell down.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Fan was shocked. He didn't expect such a result. Beautiful singing is like a strong wind sweeping the earth, coming and going in a hurry.
From the moment it appeared to the moment it ended, it didn't even last three seconds. The moment the singing stopped suddenly, not far in front of Zhang Fan, the blond woman in a white dress quietly appeared again.
She waved to Zhang Fan, shouted "Follow me," and then ran away without looking back. Looking at the other person's leaving figure, Zhang Fan felt a hint of regret in his heart. After hesitating again and again, he spoke to Zhao Ping and hurriedly caught up with him.
The direction the blond woman ran was not the bay or Haitang Village, but an open area lined with boulders.
After arriving here, the blond woman stopped slowly, turned to look at Zhang Fan and the two who were following them, and said with a smile: "Are you okay?" Only Zhang Fan could hear this.
Of course, only Zhang Fan could see the blonde woman. As for Zhao Ping, he could neither hear the blonde woman's voice nor see her presence.
Therefore, this situation seems particularly strange. Zhao Ping looked at Zhang Fan's abnormal scene and thought of the beautiful singing voice that had just appeared inexplicably. He roughly understood what was going on.
Needless to say, it must have been the mermaid who saved their lives in an emergency.
"Thank you, you saved me again!" Counting this time, this mermaid saved his life for the second time.
At this moment, Zhang Fan believed a lot more in what the mermaid said before. Maybe it was true as she said, it was the village chief of Haitang Village who captured their tribesmen, which led them to come here to rescue them all the way.
