My Iyashikei Game Chapter 700: Mind, Lake God
Chapter 701 Mind, Lake God
The old man sat alone in front of the freezer, skillfully wielding the knife with both hands, the sound of fish scales being scraped off combined with the short song she was humming, made goose bumps appear all over the body of those who heard it.
Han Fei, who was standing at the door, coughed lightly, the movement of the old man's hands stopped immediately, and the room became instantly quiet.
Slowly stretched out hands covered in fish scales and blood, the old man pulled down his hood to cover half of his face, and then timidly turned his head to look at the back door.
The bright eyes are like black gems, full of luster, as if they have been continuously polished by the water.
"Are you here for dinner? Sorry, the chef is not here. If you are really hungry, I can make something for you to eat." An old and hoarse feeling: "Don't worry, no money will be charged."
Smelling the stench of the room, Yan Le and the player lost their appetite, but Han Fei had a smile on his face: "That's my trouble."
He spoke very politely, his gentle and gentle appearance was completely different from before.
"No trouble, our town was developed by tourists, helping you is helping us." The old man seemed to have something in his words, and when Han Fei wanted to see her expression clearly, the old man had already turned around .
She took off the apron covered with fish scales and threw it into the pool next to it. Holding the knife specially used for scraping fish scales, she entered another room in the back kitchen.
"Han Fei, are you sure you want to eat here?" The player who is a lifeguard in reality is a little scared. He knows some survival skills and is good at water, but that is only compared with ordinary people. If the water ghost snatches people, he will also feel guilty.
"It's rare to meet a living person, so it's better to have a chat." After the old man left, Han Fei walked towards the freezer and the sink. He looked at the fish scales on the ground and picked up a black scale with flesh and blood : "Do you know what kind of fish scales this is?"
"I've never seen such a big and hard scale. Could it be a giant bone snakefish?" The lifeguard frowned and followed behind Han Fei. It really stinks.
"Then take a look at what kind of fish are in this freezer? Are there any special species?" Han Fei asked the lifeguard to check the freezer while he stood by the sink.
When the old lady left, she made a seemingly casual but deliberate movement. After she took off the apron, she didn't put it on the hook, but threw it directly into the sink, letting the apron float in the sink. covered the water.
"What are you looking at?"
“When we came in, the old lady was scraping the scales of the fish, but after we came in, the fish she was scraping disappeared. I suspect that she wrapped the fish in the apron when she was fetching it, Throw it directly into the sink." Han Fei talked about some details that others didn't notice at all, he ignored Yan Le, and picked up the iron hook next to him to fish out the apron.
The sink, which is two meters long and one meter wide, is not known for what it is used for. It is filled with a pool of sewage, which is muddy and dirty, exuding a pungent stench.
"Whether this water is used to raise fish or clean fish, people will die if they eat it?" The lifeguard has already checked the freezer: "There are some very common fish in there, nothing special."
Han Fei didn't respond to the lifeguard. His eyes were fixed on the sink, imitating in his mind how the old lady threw the apron just now.
"If there is really a fish hidden in the apron, it will probably fall in this place." Rolling up his sleeves, Han Fei reached into the sink under the surprised gaze of the lifeguard.
It was beyond his expectation. The sink, which looked small, was actually very deep, and his arm was completely submerged in it, and he hadn't touched the bottom yet.
"So deep?"
Can't find anything to throw into the sink, so Han Fei had to give up, but just as he was about to take his hand out of the sink, his fingertips touched something greasy, as if it had been scraped off Scales of fish flesh.
He stretched out his five fingers and grabbed there, but what made his face change slightly was that what he caught was not a fish, but five fingers.
"That's a man's hand!"
It is not the fish that the old lady has been scraping off the fish scales, but a severed hand?
At the moment of thinking in his mind, Han Fei suddenly felt a huge force. His arm seemed to be bitten by the mouth of a big fish, and he fell towards the sink!
At the critical moment, Han Fei stepped on the edge of the sink, and the ugly cat in his backpack also barked, and the "big fish" let go.
The water splashed everywhere, and Han Fei's face was only a foot away from the muddy and dirty water, so he quickly pulled his arm out.
The internal organs and blood of the fish slid down his arm, but Han Fei didn't care at all. He stared at his hand carefully. There was a circle of teeth marks on his wrist, not sharp teeth marks, but the teeth marks of a living person.
"Is there a dead body in the pool?" Han Fei wanted to continue checking, but the old man came out from another room in the back kitchen, and the lifeguard stood in front of Han Fei with a wink, helping Han Fei with his body. Fei blocked that arm.
The old lady didn't notice any abnormalities. Her head and face were covered by the scarf, and she couldn't see any expression: "This place is messy, you should wait in the restaurant."
The clothes on her body also exude a fishy smell, and it seems that they haven't been changed for a long time. The whole body, except for the eyes, only her hands are exposed, and her left wrist is still wrapped with a bandage. I don't know. Is it because of an injury, or to hide something on the skin.
"Then I'll trouble you." Han Fei and the lifeguard left the back kitchen side by side, Yan Le followed closely behind.
There is a long corridor between the back kitchen and the hall where the diners eat. Those diners can't see the scene of the back kitchen at all, and it's hard to smell the stench of the back kitchen.
Sitting down in a random place in the hall, Han Fei wiped off the blood on his arm and scanned his surroundings.
This fish restaurant does not look like a deserted building. There is no dust on the tabletops, seats and bar counters, only some water marks, as if the diners who came here were soaked in water.
Generally speaking, the place is clean and the decoration is very distinctive. There are also various photos hanging on the walls. Most of them are tourists who caught big fish by the lake and took pictures together.
"Han Fei, look at this." The lifeguard pointed to a photo frame on the wall: "How does this fish look like a human face?"
The closer the photo is to the bar, the weirder the fish looks, and the closest to the bar is the photo frame, and the photo inside has been removed.
After waiting for almost twenty minutes, a faint fragrance came from the dark corridor, and the old lady came out with an iron basin.
"I've been waiting for a long time. Now I'm the only one in the restaurant, and I'm slow to cook." The old lady put the iron basin on the dining table, and the milky white fish was dyed red by chili peppers. Have an appetite.
Visitors who have never seen the kitchen scene will definitely have a good meal, but Han Fei and the others have no appetite.
"There is no rice noodles in the restaurant now, if not enough, I can make you one more fish."
"A fish?" Han Fei's lips moved slightly. He had only heard of one person. This was the first time he had heard of a fish. He felt that the fish was not an ordinary person.
The lifeguard and Yan Lebeng didn't dare to touch it, and even the ugly cat shook his head when he saw it, meowing and meowing non-stop.
"Eat it while it's hot, it will be fishy when it cools." When the old lady put down the iron basin and was about to go to the back kitchen, she seemed to have thought of something again, and stopped and said: "It's getting dark, you'd better Don't run around by the lake, just find a place to live in the small town."
"Is the lake dangerous? We're still planning to go fishing at night." The expression on Han Fei's face looked very innocent. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary fishing enthusiast.
"Don't go." The old lady's voice was very serious: "I don't want to lie to you, the reason why this town was half built and had to stop work is because there seems to be a water monster in the lake, and several people are already there Missing."
"Water monster?" The lifeguard wiped the sweat from his forehead. He knew that Han Feilai wanted him to go into the water.
When he thought of that unknown terrifying monster, he couldn't help but start to panic.
"It turns out that this town is very lively. Before it was completed, many fishing enthusiasts came to play. They have a good relationship with the night shift workers. If they catch fish, they will directly cook them in the restaurant. We only charge a processing fee. Everyone is friendly, and the boss and investors are also very optimistic about this place, but everything has changed since one night." The old lady does not seem to be a bad person, and she reminded Han Fei seriously.
"Did something happen?" Han Fei and the three of them were all attracted by the old man's words.
“First, people who were fishing at night disappeared, and witnesses saw different situations. They didn’t come up either. Others said that the missing person was fishing, walked into the lake by himself, and disappeared without a sound.”
"The workers who built the town later had accidents one after another. Some people died strangely in their sleep, lying on the bed, but the cause of death was drowning and suffocation."
"Even more weird things happened later, people who often ate big fish in the lake began to grow scales on their bodies, and those people would make strange noises in their bodies at night, and when it was daytime, everyone When I went to check, I found that there were only fallen fish scales and some flesh and blood left on their beds, and the people had disappeared, so everyone suspected that they ran into the lake and became water ghosts.”
There is only one small light on in the fish restaurant, and the flickering light shines on the face of the old man covered by the turban, which is a bit scary.
"In short, don't go near the big lake at night. Get a good night's sleep and leave after dawn."
"Thank you for the reminder." Han Fei was not going to let the old man go just like that, he noticed a detail: "You just said that everything has changed since a certain night, do you still remember what happened on that special night What's the matter?"
Meng held a resurrection ceremony by the lake, and that night should be the time for Meng to prepare for the ceremony.
"That night was the day of worshiping the lake god. The lake was closed and fishing was prohibited. People who lived near the lake would come here. Everyone was lively and lively, praying for good weather in the coming year. In the middle of the night, the old people in the village would enshrine the statue of the lake **** in the ancestral hall. Please come out, and then find an orphan, and bring three tributes to the island to worship."
"Go to the island?" Han Fei blinked.
“There is an isolated island in the center of the great lake. When worshiping the lake god, I will specially find an orphan who has no father, no mother, no care, no worries, and has grown up eating a lot of food. The biggest problem that night is the orphan. "The old lady's tone became urgent: "Life has improved these years, and there are no orphans and witches in the nearby villages and towns. The statue of the lake **** fell into the lake together, and the body has not been found until now."
"It's really not a good omen." Han Fei felt that the old lady didn't know the existence of dreams, so he blamed everything on the sacrifice ceremony. The orphans that night were most likely related to dreams, and even the boss who built the resort here was very It may be a person who is bewitched by a dream: "Then is there anything we can do to make up for it?"
"I don't know, but now we don't even know whether the lake lives in the lake **** or the lake ghost." The old lady shook her head: "If you are interested in these things, you may go to the boat after dawn. Ask at the rental center, the person in charge grew up by the lake and was specially recruited by the owner of the resort.”
"Okay, I see."
Just as Han Fei finished speaking, there was the sound of a door being smashed in the back kitchen. With a creak, a door in the back kitchen seemed to be opened.
The eyes of the old lady became a little flustered: "Remember, never get close to that lake, just stay in the room honestly at night, and don't think about it. By the way, there is the most important point, do Don't fall asleep."
After finishing speaking, the old man hurriedly ran towards the back kitchen, probably because she was too hasty, her left hand accidentally touched the bar, and the bandage wrapped around her wrist spread a little~IndoMTL.com~ revealing The bright red and bloodshot flesh below.
"The meat is very tender, like a fish whose scales have been scraped off."
Han Fei's eyes were completely different from just now. He turned his head and stared at Yan Le: "The dream ceremony is held by the lake. This lake is called the brain. The old lady told us not to fall asleep at night. The three seem to be mutually related. associated."
"The longer the delay, the greater the chance of the dream reviving. Shall we act tonight?" Yan Le's mother was a little uneasy. She didn't like dreams, and she didn't like Han Fei very much either.
"Of course." Han Fei took out a banknote from his pocket and put it on the table. He carried his bag and walked towards the boat rental center.
In the entire resort, the boat rental center is the building closest to the Great Lakes. Han Fei and the others carefully checked all the rooms this time, and finally they gathered in the person in charge's private bedroom.
The room was filled with a fishy smell, a few stinky waterweeds were scattered at the base of the wall, and there were large water stains and blood stains on the bed in the bedroom, as well as some thin fish scales.
"It seems to have just left."
Han Fei rummaged through the house for useful things. When he lifted the bed board, he found a weird statue of a **** under the bed.
