Today I am an NPC in an escape game

Chapter 101
"There is not one boat missing, it is exactly the same as when we came here just now."

Su Tao was silent. Could it be that everyone was eaten by that monster and there was no scum left?
"Put me down."

Gu Yanqing was a little bit reluctant, but still obediently put Su Tao down slowly, still joking: "Hey, the time when Ruanxiang is in her arms really flies."

"..." Su Tao was speechless for a moment, so she just pretended not to hear, clutching Gu Yanqing's sleeve with one hand, and groping forward with the other.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, the waves are rolling, the wooden boat is rising and falling very unstable, and some water pours in from time to time, and the ice is cold and slaps on people.

"Two experts, this time I apologize to you..."

After a moment of silence, the village chief spoke first, grinning, with a smirk on his face, and his attitude changed drastically, "I didn't know that Hai Ling had become so bad, I will send you guys back to me." I'm really sorry for being locked in a small black prison."

Since it was the village chief who mentioned this first, Su Tao asked unceremoniously: "You call it the Poseidon, then why do you want to imprison it on that small island?"

The village chief was taken aback, glanced at Ziliang, then looked at Su Tao, and sighed a little louder, as if he wanted Su Tao to hear it on purpose, "Because Hai Ling is sick."

"Hai Ling was not what you saw just now. She was actually very beautiful. It was only because she gave birth to the little bell that she became such a terrifying appearance. She couldn't see the light. So in order to protect her, I had to take her Locked there."

"Little Bell?" Gu Yanqing nodded slightly, "The name is not bad."

The village chief grinned, and the creases on his face were layer upon layer. When he looked at Gu Yanqing, his eyes and expression became visibly cautious, "Yes, it was taken by Hai Ling, very cute."

"Then why did you dress up Little Bell like that? He is your son." Su Tao paused, lowered his eyes, and his voice became very soft, "It's because his body is covered with scales. The reason?"

"No, no, little bell can't see the light, and once exposed to the air for a long time, his whole body will start to rot, so I did that." The village chief expressed his aggrieved, "He is my son, didn't he say Does tiger poison not eat its children? How could I want to harm him!"

The village head's arguing made Su Tao find no flaws. Her beautiful and cold eyes were lost at this moment, and they looked bloody, with a different feeling.

Like...a brittle porcelain doll.

Gu Yanqing turned his eyes away, taking advantage of the swaying trend of the boat, he stretched a hand from behind Su Tao to the side railing, protecting her, and then pretended not to care and asked the village chief, "Do you love her?" ?”

"Ah?" I don't know if it was because of the nervousness caused by fear, but the village chief didn't react for a while, "Who?"

Su Tao added cooperatively: "Hai Ling."

"I..." The village head paused for a long time, looked at the place where the sea meets the horizon, and said slowly, "It's hard to say, my feelings for her are very complicated, and I can't describe it right now."

"If you hesitate, you don't like it." Su Tao raised his eyebrows, and understood something instantly.

"There is a relationship of interest between you, right? You married Hai Ling because of shipbuilding, and Hai Ling insisted on marrying you... I don't think it's because she likes you, or because you are the one she wants to choose."

The village chief's face darkened, "No matter what, she is dead now, no matter how much you entangle this matter, it will not help."

"But we need to be clear about the relationship between you."

"Why? You are just experts who came here to study mutant fish. There is no need to be so clear about these family matters, right?"
