Chapter 274 44: Escape
"Perlan? This is your room? My head hurts so much, I seem to have lost a memory."
Anna looked at the somewhat different room and used her arms to He supported his body, slowly sat up from the bed, rubbed his head and said to Peilan in front of him.
"Ah, you finally woke up, you really scared me to death. Maybe it was a slight concussion, after all, you fell from the second floor." Perrin sat next to Anna and consoled her.
"Fall? Why did I fall?" Anna asked blankly.
"I don't know, there was no one else in the room at that time." Perrin sighed.
"Where's Terry? Where is he?"
"Oh, calm down first. I don't want to lie to you, but I heard from people in the town that he stole some money last night when no one was around. The truck carrying goods in the town ran away, and now I don’t know where it went.”
Run away?
Anna was stunned for a long time, looking at the dull sky outside with only the white clouds remaining.
"How long have I been in a coma?"
"You have been in a coma for a day."
Her brain hurt even more when she heard this terrible time.
“In other words, today is the 5th?”
“Yes, listen, it’s very lively outside. People from the surrounding towns have rushed over just to participate. This big fish feast.”
It was indeed very lively. Anna stood up holding on to the wall and walked to the window. She could see that even the snowy streets could not stop people from moving towards the beach in twos and threes.
"I heard from the mayor that everyone must participate in the big fish banquet. I thought I would have to carry you there by then." Perrin said this with a chuckle, but in Anna's eyes , her smile seemed ferocious.
Anna shook her head subconsciously: "I, I don't feel well, so I won't go."
Perlan's smile slowly disappeared and her tone became stiff: "No, the mayor said , everyone must go, except..."
She subconsciously looked out the window at the attic of the house opposite.
"Don't worry, Nia and I will take you there."
The helpless Anna clenched the curtains tightly, fear seeping into her heart, tears seemed to be about to shed, and her mind was like a mess.
"Why are you crying?"
"Come, wipe your tears and come with us, the fish feast is about to begin."
Anna only felt that she He is a walking corpse, trapped deep among this group of strange people, unable to resist, and can only wait for their verdict.
Holding hands, Anna walked from the room downstairs, where a group of people gathered. When they saw them coming down, they stared at them with strange eyes.
“Perlan, you’re finally down.”
“I’m waiting for you.”
“I can’t do it without you.”
Anna looks Perlan, who was surrounded by enthusiasm, was a little overwhelmed, but he soon woke up, took this opportunity to quietly move to the door, opened the door and ran out.
Bang.
Just a few meters out, she felt she hit a wall, and the strong smell seemed to bury her alive, leaving her sitting in the snow and struggling to regain consciousness.
“It’s you, little girl.”
“Mr. Hai, Haiman.”
“Haha, your boyfriend is really too much, I kindly give you a gift Come here, and he actually stole my car." Heyman licked his lips and glanced at Anna carefully, "But I won't argue with you tonight, just enjoy the fish feast."
< br>
Anna was speechless and slowly climbed up from the snow. Behind her, Peilan appeared like a ghost, wrapped her arm around her and said angrily: "I didn't expect you to be more anxious than me. Anna, you actually lied to me just now." I don’t want to participate in the fish feast.”
Hearing this, the heads of the people around him turned around, and their dead fish-like eyes glowed with a strange light, like nails, hammering hard. on her body.
"I'm just kidding, how could anyone not want to participate?"
Anna just felt like she couldn't breathe. After struggling to speak out word by word, the crowd around her recovered. He lost his original appearance and continued walking towards the coast talking and laughing.
"Let's just say, let's go, Anna."
The two of them followed the crowd closely.
The closer she got, the weaker Anna's legs became. Although she didn't believe Terry would leave her and run away, it didn't stop her from complaining about him crazily in her heart.
However, she also discovered that many people were looking at Peilan beside her with eager eyes, as if Anna didn't know how to describe it, she just felt strange.
Especially those classmates and teachers of Peilan, they were so eager that they didn't even move their mouths closer to each other and stretched their tongues unconsciously as they spoke, as if they wanted to eat Peilan.
But Peilan didn't seem to notice anything strange, his eyes were full of longing, and he felt that everything around him was very ordinary.
Amidst the anxiety, the coast got closer and closer, and a huge bonfire could be seen piled on the beach, igniting raging flames.
When Anna reached the crowd, there was no possibility of escaping. Perrin released her arm in time and walked towards the bonfire with a smile.
After seeing her, the people around her would smile and make way for a passage.
The sun has completely set, and everyone has arrived.
"Under the leadership of the bishop, and under the glorious guidance of the Eternal Lord, we have arrived at another holy ocean day." There was a stand in front of the bonfire, and the mayor didn't mind the heat, so he stood there. There were loud voices there.
Anna couldn't hold on anymore. The smell around her was getting stronger and stronger, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
“Hey, are you okay?”
“I, I’m still——!”
Anna was helped by someone, and she was about to say something casually , looked at her, but saw a strange face with fish gills, which made her speechless at all.
"Why, you don't recognize me? I am Nia who lives with Perrin." Nia grinned.
"Recognize it."
Anna smiled with a smile that was uglier than crying, and then her eyes quickly swept around.
It seems that as the sun goes down, the people here gradually begin to show the characteristics of various fish.
They are not just fish, their claws are more like webbed palms, with cold light shining on their fingertips.
Looking around, it seemed that the only ones left who didn't show the characteristics of the strange fish were himself and Peilan, who was constantly approaching.
Not knowing where the courage came from, Anna took a few steps forward and wanted to grab Perrin's hand.
"Perlan——"
Unfortunately, the other party ignored her and continued to walk forward. The fishmen around her looked at her in silence and remained silent.
The courage dissipated, and Anna could only give up the pursuit and stay where she was.
“Come, child, come, you will be the best gift we can give to the bishop.”
In the outgoing passage, Perlan walked step by step to the mayor. In front of him, there were already people lined up in a line carrying basket after basket of still-beating fish. "Come on, these are all yours, you can eat as much as you want, go ahead and eat as much as you want." The mayor, who looked like a fish-man, was very persuasive.
Pellan's eyes lit up. Thinking of the delicious taste of the fish, he couldn't bear it any longer. He grabbed a still alive fish and stuffed it into his mouth.
Underneath, Anna's pupils were shaking, but no one around her thought there was anything wrong.
The thick body of the fish stretched out Peilan's throat, but she showed an expression of enjoyment and pushed inside as if she was desperate. Within ten seconds, a fish that seemed to weigh more than ten kilograms came out. It was completely swallowed by her.
"Hungry, it's delicious, it's delicious."
"It's delicious, then eat more." The mayor took the initiative to catch a big fish for her and handed it to her hand.
She continued to eagerly open her mouth and feed it inside.
Peilan’s belly was like a bottomless pit. Even though she kept stuffing one whole big fish into it, it was still not full, and her body slowly began to swell, getting more and more until there were no more fish to satisfy her appetite.
Her clothes had long been torn, her white belly expanded like a fish's belly, and her legs gradually closed together, taking on the shadow of a fish's tail.
"Fish, I want more fish!"
She grabbed the entire basket and poured it into it with her mouth wide open.
After doing this several times, even the basket could not satisfy her. She opened her dull fish eyes, uttered unintelligible words, grabbed the basket and the fishman holding the basket, and headed towards Fill the gaping mouth of your own abyss.
The fish-man was not afraid, but was filled with joy.
“It’s my turn! It’s my turn!”
The fishmen rushed forward and waved their arms.
And Peilan also refused to refuse, swallowing one after another, until her hands became fish fins, her head became a fish head, and there was no trace of human beings on her body.
Even so, she opened her mouth desperately, opening and closing it to eat the mayor next to her.
"Hahaha, good boy, good boy, you are really good. You are so good-looking that I can't bear to chop off your head." The mayor said lightly as if he was admiring a work of art. He gently stroked the fish's head and said, "But it's a pity for old John!"
As the mayor spoke, an extremely ugly but strong fishman walked out of the fish group and walked forward with a machete. Come.
"Come on, don't be biased. A fish head is a fish head, a fish belly is a fish belly, and a fish tail is a fish tail. No one in the town can be partial."
"Guluke." Old John responded. , walked to the big fish, looked at it carefully, looked at the position, and raised the big knife high——
Boom!
There was a sudden explosion at the church in the town.
Old John stopped the knife and the fish people turned their heads.
The mayor looked at the fire and laughed out loud: "You ungrateful guy really dares to come back, then let me cut off your hands and feet as a gift to the bishop! Old John, you Lead people to keep an eye on Baoyu and that woman.”
“Gululu.”
After that, the mayor led a large number of fishmen and rushed towards the church.
Old John arranged some stronger fishmen to guard the big fish, and when he wanted to find Anna, he found that the other party had disappeared at some point.
The Nia fish head that arranged to watch her had fallen on the sand, and she had been dead for who knows how long.
"Find it for me!" Old John roared angrily.
On the other side, Anna was being carried behind by a fish-man and kept running in the other direction.
"Wow, as expected of a veteran Chao Chao, he actually dared to make such a big noise. Now there are several murlocs from nearby mayors gathered here. It will be even more troublesome if they drag them to the bishop."
"You, who are you?"
"It's so sad, I even fried rice for you at night."
"Are you...another Uncle John?"
"You can say that, although I don't want to be juxtaposed with that ugly guy."
"Then——"
< br>"Stop talking! Get in the car!"
He stuffed Anna into a car that was stolen not long ago. The fishman changed his appearance and became Fox Seven. He didn't waste any more words and drove directly. Leave.
"Are you here to save me? Terry, do you know where Terry is?"
"Your journey is over. Terry is waiting for you in front. Go back quickly. If you can, Just leave Nan'ao, I'm afraid it's no different from the Demon Cave."
"Devil's Cave?" Based on the experiences of the past few days, Anna couldn't refute, especially after witnessing Perrin transforming little by little in front of her eyes. A fish is simply a nightmare that cannot be cured in life.
After driving a few kilometers, Hu Qi stopped.
“Let’s go, just in that direction, Terry will be waiting for you there. After you get in the car, ask him not to look back. In short, the further away from the sea, the better.”
"What about you?"
"I have to record such a wonderful battle! Let's go!"
Hu Qi drove Anna out of the car and urged her to leave quickly.
Anna turned back and glanced at the town from a distance. Everything that happened these days flashed through her mind like a slideshow. Her chapped lips moved slightly. In the end, she said nothing and looked deeply. Hu Qi took one look, bowed and said: "Thank you, otherwise."
"Okay, I received it, goodbye. If you are late, you may be caught up."
After saying that, Hu Qi drove the car and continued to drive in the direction. Later, she would go back in a circle to see the extraordinary battle scene with her own eyes.
Anna walked in the direction that Hu Qi just pointed, one foot deep and one foot shallow, leaving a series of footprints.
"Anna! Anna!" After taking a few steps, she saw Terry running towards her.
"Terry!"
The two hugged each other in the snow and felt each other's breath, but it was not suitable to stay here for a long time. Both of them are movie fans who have watched group dramas, so naturally they would not be there This place was out of order, so I hurried back to the truck.
"Water, is there any water?"
As soon as she got in the car, Anna licked her chapped lips and asked eagerly.
“Yes, you don’t know, it turns out that the abandoned gold mining town is inhabited by people who escaped from nearby towns. They have been living there with the help of a fire-breathing supernatural being. I want to When we left, they gave me a lot of supplies. Let's go back to the place where we anchored to get them." Terry was so excited that he pulled out a box of water and chirped to Anna about his experience.
But Anna didn't seem to listen to him. She raised her head and poured a bottle of water completely in one breath, and then slowly exhaled.
".Terry, me"
"Ah? What's wrong? Are you still hungry? Or is this car too fishy? Do you want me to open the window?" Terry looked at the road seriously and could only glance at Anna from time to time.
"No, no, I just thought you didn't want me anymore. This smell doesn't matter anymore, I'm used to it."
Anna forced a smile, picked up a bottle of water again, and drank it stand up.
