Abyss Notes [Unlimited]

The child on the stairs looked up.Yu Zhou felt chills in his heart: it was the child born from the belly of a dolphin, it had a fish face, it crawled towards Yu Zhou naked, and raised its hand to point directly at Yu Zhou's nose.

Yu Zhou was too scared to move, and he didn't dare to look at that weird child.The child opened a pair of fish eyes and kept a rigid posture.

Yu Zhou's heart skipped a beat, and he lay down slowly.

The child's hand was still pointing straight.It doesn't refer to Yu Zhou at all—it refers to the black sea outside the window behind Yu Zhou.

There must be something in the sea, the hint is so clear.Yu Zhou didn't know why he was so courageous, so he touched the child's hand.

The child suddenly lowered his head and opened his mouth.

Everyone was woken up by Yu Zhou's screams.

There were no fish-faced children on the mezzanine and stairs, only Yu Zhou with a trembling voice.Yu Zhou stammered to describe the child's appearance, Liu Yingnian rubbed his sleepy eyes: "You are having a nightmare."

Fan Xing looked at the water marks on the stairs from nowhere, and suddenly realized: "Is this an excuse for you to pee your pants?"

Yu Zhou: "..."

He didn't want to say anything.

Seeing that it was almost dawn, Fan Xing forcibly stayed on the mezzanine and refused to leave, dragging Yu Zhou's backpack to sleep on.Yu Zhou didn't want him to touch his things, so he took the backpack back from under his head.

Jiang Xiao understood Yu Zhou: "Anything can happen in the 'birdcage', this is not a normal place."

"You know the 'Birdcage' very well?" Fan Xing asked, "Then why don't you tell us anything?"

Jiang Xiao: "If I say it now, I'm afraid none of us will be able to leave Wujiao Town." She pointed at Yu Zhou, "Especially you."

"I'm better than Liu Yingnian anyway." Yu Zhou muttered, "At least I didn't cry because of the dead."

Yu Zhou told Jiang Xiao what he saw when he was staring at the pier yesterday.

Jiang Xiao turned his head and asked Chen Yi: "What's on the sea?"

Chen Yi confessed: "There is indeed a strange place in the sea, it is a big, big whirlpool."

Yu Zhou thought of the first page of Abyss Notes, a small whirlwind outside the stick figures in Wujiao Town. ...That is not a whirlwind, but a vortex in the sea?

His mind suddenly became clear: what was written in the diary is probably a reminder from Foghorn Town!

Jiang Xiao hugged Chen Yi's shoulders, exerting a little strength: "There is nothing to say, let's talk about it together."

Chen Yi: "...what do you mean?"

Jiang Xiao: "Yesterday Liu Yingnian was talking nonsense, saying that when the wind comes in winter, the fog can be dispelled. Your brother wanted to talk at the time, but was interrupted by you. You told us that the monster on the tower wanted to eat meat. Meatless me Don't care, what did your brother want to say at that time?"

Chen Yi's arm was in severe pain from being pinched by her, and he had to let go: "Have you heard the sound of the horn?"

As soon as the voice fell, a dull and long horn sound suddenly sounded outside the house.

It elongates slowly, like a rusty saw blade, roughly abrading everyone's hearing.

This was louder than the horn sound heard in the dense fog last time, Yu Zhou and Jiang Xiao instinctively covered their ears, while Fan Xing jumped up and jumped down the stairs.He moved very fast, opened the door in an instant and rushed out of the house.

It was raining outside, and the ground in Wujiao Town was covered in reddish blood.Fan Xing stepped on the bloody water and shouted: "It came from the sea!"

There was a deafening roar rolling on the sea, Yu Zhou followed Fan Xing and rushed into the rain, running towards the source of the sound.

They ran up to the highest hillside in Wujiao Town, which was a cliff with a broken head, and as long as they jumped off, they would be in the sea covered by thick black fog.The rain hit Yu Zhou's face crazily, he didn't think about anything, he just rushed forward.

Fan Xing grabbed his backpack, Yu Zhou couldn't stop his forward momentum and fell to the ground.

He felt a pain in his nose and suddenly woke up. "Thank you." He quickly got up from the ground, "You saved me again."

Yu Zhou's vision was blurred by the rain, he wiped his face, but Fan Xing still held onto his backpack tightly and did not let go. "Don't worry, I won't die, I will never die in this poor place." Yu Zhou murmured, "This sea is really weird..."

"Hey!" Fan Xing suddenly slapped him across the face, "Listen carefully!"

The sound of the trumpet has not stopped.

"This is not a horn at all!" Fan Xing shouted, "Don't you think it sounds like breathing!"

Thunder rolled by in the rain and mist, and Yu Zhou suddenly remembered the words in that weird notebook - when the evil beast stops breathing, the dream will wake up.

Yu Zhou was drenched all over, and when he returned to Chen Liang and Chen Yi's home, Jiang Xiao was pressing Chen Yi to ask him what the sound of the horn meant.

Chen Liang asked back: "How many times have you heard the horn?"

"Second time. What's wrong?"

Chen Liang swallowed his saliva: "The horn sounds every two days. After the third horn sound, Wujiao Town will be crushed by the tsunami."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and it turned out that the fisherman's hat was the first to speak: "Everyone will die?"

"Everyone." Chen Liang nodded, and added, "Except us, except the aborigines in Wujiao Town."

Yu Zhou didn't have time to be surprised by this absurd fact, Jiang Xiao nodded: "There's no need to wait for winter, we only have two days left."

Why don't the aborigines in Foghorn Town die?Why is there a monster hidden in the tower?Why don't you go out at night?Why is everyone rushing to sleep?Why do you see human babies born to dolphins?What kind of world is this?

There are a lot of problems in Yu Zhou's mind, he has always played the weakest and most inconspicuous role among all, but now he can't hesitate anymore.

"I need a boat," he said. "I want to go to sea."

Even Jiang Xiao was nervous about the "two-day" deadline, let alone other people.After Yu Zhou said that the sound of the horn was like breathing, Liu Yingnian really asked, "So what if it sounds like breathing?"

There was a hint in the weird notebook in his hand, but Yu Zhou didn't say anything about it.He guards this secret carefully.

"Anyway, I want to go and have a look." Yu Zhou said.

Chen Liang and Chen Yi have a boat, the elder brother is hesitant, but the younger sister is generous and offers to send Yu Zhou to sea.

There was heavy fog and heavy rain at sea, and Yu Zhou had no experience in going out to sea, so he was afraid that he would be swept away by the sea before he saw the whirlpool.Yu Zhou was grateful for her proposal, and the three of them worked together to quickly pull out a small wooden boat from the grass behind the house.

Between Yu Zhou and Jiang Xiao, Liu Yingnian and Fisherman Hat chose to follow Jiang Xiao's pace.Jiang Xiao decided to talk to Teacher Gu again.

Jiang Xiao stretched out his hand towards Yu Zhou: "Lend me your knife."

She spoke so naturally, as if to question an old man with a knife is a very common thing in the "birdcage".What boundaries are blurring in this dense fog and rain, Yu Zhou dare not ask her what she wants to use the knife for, but just shakes his head: "I can't give you mine. That big brother, he also has a knife."

Before leaving, he still couldn't help talking: "You can't kill people."

Jiang Xiao snorted: "Veterans don't kill casually in the 'birdcage'. If they kill wrongly, everything will be over."

Before leaving, Yu Zhou checked the contents of the backpack and found a small black bottle stuffed in the interlayer.

A small, dead, lizard-like thing floated in the clear liquid.Yu Zhou originally thought he had thrown it away, but now thinking about that weird notebook, he gripped the small bottle tightly instead.

Maybe this is a precious reminder left by his rotten ex-boyfriend?

He was looking at the contents of the bottle against the bright light, and Chen Yi asked, "What is that?"

Yu Zhou: "My sister gave it to me."

He finally couldn't bear it anymore, and the words poured out as if opening a gate.He told the brothers and sisters that he also has a younger sister, who is only four years old this year, weak and innocent, and they depend on each other for life, just like Chen Liang and Chen Yi.

Chen Yi returned the bottle to Yu Zhou: "You miss her very much."

Yu Zhou conveniently put it in his pocket: "That 'strange place' on the sea might hide a way to disperse the fog. I wish I could leave now and go back to my sister."

Chen Yi nodded: "Let's go, go early and return early."

Both of them are good at rowing out to sea, they don't need Yu Zhou's help, and they quickly get everything ready.

When stepping on the boat, Yu Zhou saw Fan Xing standing on the stone steps of the pier looking at himself.Thinking of how many times this person had saved him, although he was weird and sticky, at least he wasn't a bad person.

"Are you going with me?" Yu Zhou shouted.

Fan Xing shook his head: "I'm afraid of water."

Yu Zhou waved goodbye to him.Fan Xing did not respond.

He just watched Yu Zhou quietly, his beautiful face was expressionless, gloomy and calm.The sea breeze blew the drawstrings of his gray cloak, and he was a pale, fangs and claws.

Chen had seen the vortex on the sea surface, it was huge, dangerous and deep.People in Foghorn Town will always go around it when they go out to sea. Legend has it that once they get close, something will come out of it and crush people and boats together.

Yu Zhou asked, "How big is it?"

The huge roar gradually approached.

Chen Liang replied: "It's bigger than Wujiao Town."

The fog is torn by the ship and parted from the bow like a heavy veil.A huge black vortex appeared before Yu Zhou's eyes.

Whirlpools are gaps in the ocean.It is more amazing than anything Yu Zhou could imagine: a black funnel so big that you can barely see its edge is stuck in the sea water, the boat is swaying on the ocean surface, Chen Liang and Chen Yi tried their best to control it The boat is not carried into the sea vortex by the surging sea water.

The black mist of Wujiao Town was generated from this sea vortex, and the thick and turbid black mist rose like a fountain from the depths of the black water hole that could not be seen to the bottom, and rushed into the gray-white sky.They condense and disperse, like flowing water, flowing towards Wujiao Town.

Chen Liang refused to get any closer, so Yu Zhou could only try his best to lean out of the side of the boat.

He was taken aback—there were countless white shadows faintly floating in the blue, almost black water, swaying with the current like heads.

"Those are..." Yu Zhou wanted to turn around and ask Chen Yi who was behind him, but suddenly someone pinned his head from behind.

The world turned upside down in an instant, someone pressed the back of his head and tore off his backpack.Yu Zhou lost his balance, turned over the side of the boat and fell into the water.

When Yu Zhou was a child, he was sneaky, and when he was chased hard, he jumped into the river, pretending to fall into the water and struggling.

The child is weak and miserable, and often the chaser goes into the water to save him, and after being rescued, he can't say anything, but instead tries to persuade him to learn well.

Back and forth, three times and four times, Yu Zhou learned how to swim.

But he had never been pushed into the water like this.

Yu Zhou poked his head out of the sea with great difficulty.On the boat, Chen Liang kept paddling, resisting the force of the current.He said something loudly to Chen Yi, and Chen Yi knelt on the bow of the boat, kowtowing to the black vortex.

Yu Zhou couldn't care less about thinking, he was struggling with the force of the vortex in the vast sea around him, and he could only survive if he returned to the boat.He paddled desperately, and finally saw the bottom of the boat and the wooden oars under the water.

Grabbing the wooden oar, Yu Zhou jumped out of the water and grabbed the side of the boat with both hands.

Chen Liang and Chen Yi on the boat were taken aback.The moment Yu Zhou turned over onto the boat, a wooden oar suddenly swung at him—he had nowhere to hide, and the wooden oar slapped hard on the top of his head.

A strand of blood gushed out from Yu Zhou's nasal cavity and scattered in the water.

He let go of the gunwale.The sea water rushed into his nostrils and lungs, and the eddies dragged him into the depths of the sea.
