"You're welcome, this is what I should do!" The blonde woman smiled sweetly, as if she was grateful to Zhang Fan with joy from the bottom of her heart.
After hearing this, Zhang Fan became even more convinced that the mermaid liked him. If she didn't like it, why would she save herself twice in a row?
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you rescue your tribe!" Zhang Fan nodded and said.
"Thank you, but the people in Haitang Village are extremely vicious. You must pay attention to your safety!" The blond woman began to worry about Zhang Fan's safety.
"It's okay, I will do what I can!" Zhang Fan looked at the woman carefully. Not to mention, she was pretty good-looking, almost as beautiful as Bai Chenxi and others.
"By the way, I still don't know your name?" Zhang Fan's eyes moved slightly and he asked doubtfully.
"What's my name? Well...my name is Sai Yao!" The blond woman said her name.
"What a name! My name is Bai...ahem, my name is Zhang Fan!" When saying this, Zhang Fan turned his head and glanced at Zhao Ping, who was standing not far behind him, and whispered to himself His real name was revealed.
"Your name is also a good one!" Sai Yao smiled. Her smile was beautiful and warmer than the sunshine in the sky.
I don't know if this smile contains magic power, or for some reason, Zhang Fan's face was obviously flushed.
"Miss Sai Yao, what are those red crows that were chasing us just now?" Zhang Fan suddenly thought of those terrifying crows flying out of the corpses. If Sai Yao hadn't taken action at the critical moment, I'm afraid the two of them would have died today. deal.
Just as miserable as those dead survivors, they ended up with their internal organs hollowed out.
"That's not a crow, but a strange bird called a bird. Of course, they also have a name called human bird!"
"The bird feeds on human internal organs. Its eggs are smaller than human pores and are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Moreover, it usually lays its eggs on humans. After the chicks are born, they feed on human internal organs. They feed on them and don’t fly out of the human body until the internal organs are empty. There are also some baby birds that do not fly out, but use the human body as a cover to get close to other living people and kill them!”
"This island is basically full of these strange birds! It's better for you to return to Haitang Village, where it will be relatively safe!" Sai Yao explained to Zhang Fan.
"Why do you think it will be safer in Haitang Village?" Zhang Fan asked with a suspicious look on his face.
"The old tree in front of Haitang Village protects us from many dangers. However, this old tree is not a good thing. It also needs to eat people!"
"Every other year, human sacrifices are required to it!"
"It's more terrifying than a bird like this!"
"You are the sacrifices chosen by Haitang Village, so you must hide tomorrow night!" Sai Yao's beautiful blue eyes were full of tears, shining like amber.
"Okay, thank you for letting me know. How can I fight against this old tree that is so terrifying?" Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes and asked.
For some reason, he had an intuition in his heart that there would be a high probability of encountering this old tree later.
Since the old tree is so terrifying, everyone who sees its appearance will want to hang on it.
It is necessary to know how to deal with such an evil old tree. There is nothing wrong with having one more life-saving method.
"Burn it with fire! This evil tree is afraid of fire. If you burn it with fire, it will no longer be able to be evil!" Sai Yao gave a way to deal with it.
"I see, I understand, thank you for letting me know!" After listening to this, Zhang Fan expressed his gratitude to Sai Yao and kept this method in his heart.
If it really came to a point of confrontation, he would simply set a fire and burn the old tree.
"You have to pay attention to your own safety, but don't be brave. If you really can't resist, just set a fire and burn the old tree!!" Sai Yao gave Zhang Fan advice.
"Okay, I'll pay attention!" Zhang Fan thanked him. Next, Zhang Fan talked a lot with Sai Yao before they said goodbye and left.
Sai Yao watched Zhang Fan leave. She sighed first, and then her figure turned into little bubbles and disappeared out of thin air.
After returning to Haitang Village, Zhang Fan described to Zhao Ping the conversation he had just had with Sai Yao.
After hearing this, Zhao Ping also had a deeper understanding of mermaids like Sai Yao. Perhaps before, he felt repulsed by the terrifying man-eating creatures like mermaids, but now that he was rescued by Sai Yao, he felt that they were not heinous monsters and had a different view of them.
Maybe what they said is very likely to be true. The people in Haitang Village are not good people.
No wonder his attitude yesterday was completely different from his attitude today. It turned out that he wanted to use unwarranted enthusiasm to make friends with them.
Only in this way can they be paralyzed physically and mentally, so that they can relax their vigilance and catch them all in one fell swoop.
"However, we can't believe all Sai Yao's words. Although she saved us, tonight, we should secretly go to the cellar of the village chief's house to check out the situation!" Although she was indeed saved by Sai Yao, but You still have to be as vigilant as you should be. I can’t give you a piece of candy, so I’m determined to treat you as a good person, right?
After all, last night's scene of mermaids eating people hadn't been long yet. Zhang Fan and Zhao Ping chatted for a long time before formulating the next strategy.
At night, they climbed over the wall into the village chief's house and sneaked into the cellar to see what was going on. If there are really mermaids in the cellar, it means that what Sai Yao said is true. There is really no good person in Haitang Village.
And if there is no mermaid in the cellar, then Sai Yao is lying. But no matter what it is, Zhang Fan and the others need to verify it before they can know it.
After making a plan, Zhang Fan and the two men breathed a sigh of relief. They did not return to the village chief's house because they did not go back for a long time. If they were in the past, they might be suspected by the people in Haitang Village.
And you can’t tell too many people about checking things secretly at night. The more people know about it, the greater the risk of being leaked.
If people like the village chief were informed of their plan in advance, they might be able to prepare.
At that time, they will not go to investigate the situation, but... they will fall into the trap themselves. After finding a remote corner with no one around, Zhang Fan and the two began to rest.
Before they left the village chief's house, they ate a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry, but they could barely fill their stomachs. They were in pretty good shape now.
I don't know if their hiding place is too hidden or for some other reason. They hid for a whole day and saw no one coming looking for them.
This day passed very comfortably, and it was over in the blink of an eye. It was not until the sky gradually darkened and there was no one around that Zhang Fan and the two slowly opened their eyes.
Although it has gradually entered the dark night, the mermaid singing as imagined has not yet arrived. Don't know what caused it.
However, for the sake of safety, Zhang Fan and Zhang Fan still plugged their ears with cotton as they were not afraid of the sudden mermaid singing.
Do this just in case you need it. They tiptoed along the deserted road in the dark toward the village chief's house.
Because they were afraid of the mermaid's singing, every villager in Haitang Village blocked their ears after entering the dark night, fled back home and locked the doors.
There is almost everyone on the street outside now. After walking for a while, Zhang Fan and the two finally arrived outside the village chief's house.
At this time, the door to the village chief's house was also locked from the inside. The fence of his house is very high, about four or five meters high, which is larger and taller than the fences of ordinary villagers' houses.
Seeing that the wall was so high, Zhang Fan looked embarrassed and said to himself, "Good guy." You know, they had to run several times just to climb a three-meter-high wall last night.
The wall in front of us is four to five meters long. How should we climb over it? But just when his face was full of distress, Zhao Ping, whose face was not very good-looking, patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the edge of the wall.
Seeing this, Zhang Fan took a look, and his face also became not very good-looking, because... at the very edge, there was a half-meter-sized dog hole.
...In the end, Zhang Fan and the two successfully arrived at the village chief's house. The village chief's house was dark without any lights, as if they had already rested at this time.
Zhang Fan quickly found the entrance to the cellar based on Sai Yao's guidance in his memory. The door to the cellar entrance is made of wood.
The wooden door was opened forcefully, revealing a winding spiral staircase with no end in sight.
The stairs were dark, with only a few kerosene lamps squatting in the grooves of the wall, emitting a faint light.
The cold wind drifted in the dim surroundings, giving people an indescribable eerie feeling. Zhang Fan and Zhang Fan looked at each other, then slowly closed the wooden door of the cellar, lowered their footsteps, and kept walking down.
As they went deeper, a faint smell of blood gradually filled the air. It seems that there are many corpses at the bottom of the stairs.
As they continued to go deeper, the smell of blood became stronger and stronger. In the end, Zhang Fan couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose.
He felt that if he didn't do something, he would probably choke to death. After walking downward for about ten minutes, we finally reached the bottom.
There is actually a cave below, and a spacious basement has been built. And through the basement glass, there was a dazzling green light shining out.
After seeing the basement, Zhang Fan's heart skipped a beat, and a faint sense of uneasiness filled his heart. He always felt that there must be something extremely terrifying in this basement.
Because almost all of the pungent smell of blood spreading around came from the basement.
