Lord Poseidon, send troops ashore!

This news is like a big cold hand, clutching the heart of the shopkeeper, and it is still desperately exerting force, so that people's breathing is stagnant, and they can't speak.

Endless fear had completely enveloped him.

Shopkeeper Zhang is a businessman who will grasp the opportunity, shrewd, powerful, and calculating, otherwise he would not have continuously expanded his industry in such a year of famine, adding a lot of wealth.

But it is precisely because of his character that he is different from those mountain village men who are easy to be fooled, although he also joined the Poseidon Sect, and because he often donated incense and money, he also mixed up a not very low teaching position in it, but he knew very well why he did it.

Definitely not a devout faith anyway.

And just because he joined the Poseidon Sect, he mixed a "half-official position" in it, which helped his business to develop, and also made his life more comfortable in this city that is becoming more and more different.

If you want to say that you don't believe at all, that's not true.

After all, there was a fish tide that had never appeared before, and he had seen it himself, so it was not impossible to say a miracle.

But fanatical belief is also impossible, at most it is just a little money and food to make some connections, and then show pious faith in front of those foolish men and foolish women.

Not to mention giving everything you have for the god of the sea.

Even if he was asked to give him an extra tael of silver and a bag of rice and noodles, it would hurt his heart like a knife.

Therefore, when he heard that the sea god sent troops, he was so frightened, so afraid that he couldn't help himself.

Shopkeeper Zhang would not think that after the Poseidon came ashore, he would give himself the title of official mantle because of his worship in the Poseidon Sect, and the biggest possibility would be to become the food in the mouths of those shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, although he can't say these words, but he understands the truth without a teacher.

Don't talk about anything else, just talk about human beings, when dealing with other pigs, cows, horses and sheep, they interpret this truth vividly and ruthlessly.

Heavy rain was falling.

The thick smell of the sea was mixed with the rain, and in an instant, the entire Yuehai City was enveloped.

In the box in the corner of the second floor of Shanhaiju, it was already dark at the moment.

Shopkeeper Zhang, Xiao Luzi, and a few cooks who were called to eat, none of them said a word.

The whole room was like a coffin buried deep underground, cold, dead, dark, without a trace of life.

Only the whistling wind outside, and the sound of falling rain, lapped against the windows and outer walls, as if a scavenging beast was pounding the coffin from the outside, trying to find the meat hidden inside, dig it out and eat it.

Shopkeeper Zhang trembled, instinctively wanted to pour another bowl of soju into his mouth, his fingers just touched the edge of the bowl, but he stopped suddenly, his neck stiffened and turned his head to the left.

In the sound of the wind and rain, he seemed to hear a slight grunt just now.

It's like a lazy cat, the sound it makes when it's happy, and it's like the sound of water rolling up and down in your throat when a person is rinsing his mouth with his neck up.

Shopkeeper Zhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and reached out to hold the copper spoon that had just been used to drink soup on the edge of the wine bowl.

Click!

At that moment, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky.

Instantly illuminate a rainy night like day.

It also shines through the window to light up the dark box a little.

In an instant, what happened at this moment was like an extremely terrifying and bloody picture, frozen in the heart of the shopkeeper.

Xiao Luzi held the knife used to remove meat, and was stabbing in the neck of the middle-aged man who came in to report the news.

Blood was gurgling out, a bright red.

And at the same time, he also saw that in addition to the middle-aged man who was stabbed, the faces of several chefs sitting at the table were also pale, and the sides of their necks and cheeks bulged abnormally, and the sound of gurgling water came from here, and it became louder and clearer.

Suddenly, the room was dark again.

The shopkeeper's face was splashed with sticky blood, and a figure could be vaguely seen burst up, killing several chefs who were sitting motionless at the table.

He sat there until the lamp was lit again, and then he saw Xiao Luzi, who was also covered in blood, standing in front of him, staring at his face like a lone wolf with red eyes, as if he would stab him with a knife in the next moment.

Burst!

The oil lamp was blown out again.

Xiao Luzi's wheezing voice sounded in the ears of Shopkeeper Zhang, "Master, it's good that the terrible gills didn't grow on your face, otherwise I don't know whether this knife should be stabbed or not." ”

"Xiaolu, who the hell are you?"

"Me?"

In the darkness, Xiao Luzi chuckled lowly, "I used to be a one-legged bandit, but don't be afraid, sir, since you saved my life with a blanket and a bowl of broth in the snow nest, and rewarded me with a few months of food, I will also repay you for this kindness." ”

Shopkeeper Zhang picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, exhaled a long breath of turbid air, "What the hell is going on?"

"Don't ask me, master, I don't know, I just know that I can't stay in this city right now, I have to go, go immediately!"

"Where are you going?" shopkeeper Zhang was in a trance, almost unable to think normally.

On the contrary, it is not as good as Xiaoluzi, and he is still so ruthless.

"Where to go, of course, it is to run away from the seaside, where can we run, but unfortunately we are in a remote place, and the news is not well-informed, I don't know whether the Great Wei Dynasty under the rule of Emperor Xu still exists, even if we escape to the inland far from the sea, what kind of scene will it be. ”

"Yes, go inland, go right away!"

Shopkeeper Zhang finally came back to his senses at this time, and glanced at the various furniture in the box with some reluctance, and bent down to take out two packages from behind the shelves by the wall, one handed to Xiaolu and the other on his back.

"This is the soft and dry food I have packed a long time ago, now just go and call Madame and my son, and we will be able to leave at once!"

After the tea time, the shopkeeper Zhang's face was gloomy, and he watched the woman and child who were biting him being stabbed through the neck with a knife, blood gushing out from under their iron-blue skin, and in an instant it was as if he had lost his soul, leaving only a walking corpse, pulled by the path, staggering towards the city gate.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier.

The smell of the sea mixed with the rain seems to turn the entire city into a salt pit of pickled fish, and the smell is difficult to breathe.

The two of them came out of the back door of the restaurant, braving the heavy rain and running all the way from the dark alley, and from time to time they could see monsters with knives and guns walking along the road, all of them were on the heads of fish and shrimp, but below were human bodies, gurgling and spitting a series of blisters in the torrential rain, which looked weird and seeping.
