Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

The waves are constantly beating on the beach, the tide rises and falls.

A group of players stared at the empty beach in a daze.

"Why, why did it disappear?" The girl in the long skirt was shocked.

The yacht was obviously stranded on this beach, and half of its body had already landed. It was impossible to restart without assistance.

But what is placed in front of the player now is that the yacht is indeed gone.

"Unless..." The jacket's voice was dry, "There are other people on this island."

The girl with glasses immediately thought of the group of primitive people on the mural. Apart from their group of players, the most suspicious ones are probably the aborigines on this island.

There is only one problem. With the size of the yacht, it cannot be pushed by one or two people. If the yacht is moved by manpower, it will definitely leave traces on the beach, but now there is not even a single footprint on the beach.

Then the suspicion can only be fixed on the existence of non-human beings.

The woman in glasses and the jacket looked at each other, and said in unison: "Daoxin Lake."

Before the players went down to Daoxin Lake and wandered around, only the tattooed man was injured, and what trapped him was a black unknown creature.

The girl in the long skirt raised a question: "But, what does the monster want the yacht for?"

Jacket said: "To prevent us from leaving."

The girl in glasses hesitated and said, "If according to the speculation just now, the place where the aborigines live is not far from this island, we can go there on a raft, so why bother to move the yacht."

The jacket scratched his hair, a little annoyed: "I don't know, you ask the monster—"

Just when the players were struggling with the disappearance of the yacht, Shen Dongqing found a coconut tree on the shore.He was strong and strong, and he climbed up the coconut tree with his strength in two or three strokes. He stood on the top and shook for a while, and the overripe coconuts fell to the ground one after another.

Zhou Wenyan was standing below and was about to catch the person above, but Shen Dongqing saw something and didn't come down in a hurry.

Shen Dongqing leaned on the branch of the coconut tree, looked at the beach not far away, and said, "The island seems to be getting smaller."

Zhou Wenyan didn't know why, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

Shen Dongqing stood on it, gestured, pointed to the beach and said, "I have climbed up the tree before, and it seems that the footprints on the beach have become shorter."

When this group of players went ashore, they inevitably left a series of footprints on the beach. Shen Dongqing also climbed up the tree to pick coconuts just now. She had such an impression, but now that she looked at it again, she felt something was wrong.

Zhou Wenyan looked back at the beach: "Come down first."

Shen Dongqing let out a "hmm", jumped directly from the coconut tree, and landed in Zhou Wenyan's hands.

Two people walked over with fresh coconuts in their arms.

The players over there have already started discussing how to make a raft.

Zhou Wenyan told Shen Dongqing's discovery.

The jacket obviously didn't take it seriously, and said casually: "Maybe the footprints were washed away by the waves."

Compared to the fact that the island has become smaller, this conclusion still sounds more reliable.

After all, how could such a large island become inexplicably smaller.

The jacket said: "Let's go back to the rain forest and find some wood to make a raft."

It's easy to say, but it stumps this group of players.

None of them are good at surviving in the wild, and with only a short knife in their hands, they might not be able to cut a piece of wood if the blade is cut.As for the dead branches and rotten wood that fell on the ground, the raft probably fell apart as soon as it swam out, not to mention that there might be unknown creatures on the bottom of the sea.

The plan fell through immediately.

The jacket grabbed the dead branch, broke it into several pieces as if venting anger, and threw it aside.

They wasted a day and didn't even make a decent raft, and what annoys the players is that the game doesn't give a time limit at all, that is, if they can't find a way to leave the island, Maybe you will be stuck on it for the rest of your life.

Seeing that the jacket was not in good condition, the woman with glasses said, "It's only the second day, take your time, we haven't been to the other side of the island yet, let's go and have a look tomorrow."

The size of this island is medium. The players only walked for half a day, and most of them did not go. Maybe there are key clues.

The jacket took a deep breath and accepted the suggestion of the woman with glasses.

The players lit a bonfire on the edge of the beach.

Shen Dongqing sat by the bonfire, feeling sleepy: "I don't want to eat grilled fish anymore."

The grilled fish last night was too unpalatable, causing Shen Dongqing to be listless all day. If he had another meal like this, he might die first.

Shen Dongqing didn't have the strength, but she had repeatedly scolded this stupid game countless times in her heart.

Zhou Wenyan touched Shen Dongqing, who was bowing her head, and thought of a way.He picked up some washed up crab shells on the edge of the beach, put them in the cracked coconuts, and boiled them directly in coconut water.

After a while, the fragrance wafted out.

Shen Dongqing was immediately attracted by the fragrance, and looked at it eagerly.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Wenyan couldn't help laughing, and used a branch as chopsticks, and directly picked up a shell.

"Be careful..."

Before Zhou Wenyan could finish his words, Shen Dongqing grabbed the shell and started blowing it "wheezing". When the blowing was almost done, he peeled off the shell and bit off the meat inside.

Fresh seafood, with the sweetness of coconut water, revived Shen Dongqing instantly.

Shen Dongqing bit the shell and said vaguely: "Actually, it's quite interesting here."

The sea view is good, and the seafood is delicious.

Shen Dongqing's impression of this island immediately changed for the better.

After eating and drinking enough, Shen Dongqing fell asleep. He leaned on Zhou Wenyan's shoulder, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance.

I have to say that the night view of the island is good, the sky is as clear as another sea, dotted with bright starry sky, it seems to be within reach.

Shen Dongqing tilted her head and watched for a while, then closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Shen Dongqing was woken up by the waves.

He opened his eyes in a daze, and found that the waves had reached his ankles, his trousers were wet, and the campfire was swallowed by the sea.

The players woke up one by one.

Looking at the scene in front of them, they had to believe that the island was indeed shrinking.

Last night, for the sake of safety, the players lit the bonfire between the beach and the rainforest, no matter what happens, they can run away in time.

But now, the bonfire in the middle of the beach came to the connection between the beach and the ocean, and it was just about to be submerged by sea water.

The girl in the long skirt quickly got up, away from the rushing waves: "What's going on?"

Jacket: "The island is sinking!"

The face of the woman with glasses is not very good-looking: "No wonder there is no time limit. Once this island sinks, it is time for our game to fail."

According to this speed, it is estimated that the entire island will sink into the sea in a short time.

The jacket kicked the bonfire away: "Hurry up and go to the other side of the island."

Knowing that time is running out, players speed up and head to the other side of the island.

The way to go has already been passed by the players, so the speed is faster than yesterday, and it took less than two hours to reach the lake in the island.Due to the existence of unknown monsters in the lake, the players were a little afraid and did not dare to approach the lake in the island. They kept a distance and walked around to the other side of the island.

On the other side of the island, the players finally encountered traces of human existence.

On the wet and soft ground, there were footprints of walking, which were wet, as if they had just been fished out of the water.

The jacket immediately turned around, ready to find these aborigines.

Shen Dongqing sniffled.

Zhou Wenyan noticed his small movements and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Dongqing said with disgust, "It stinks."

The forest was already filled with the smell of rotting leaves, but apart from this smell, Shen Dongqing also smelled a fishy smell, which was the smell of a drowned ghost.

It is quite normal to have drowned ghosts in the sea, but the smell of the water is too strong, as if a hundred drowned ghosts walked over in a neat formation.

Zhou Wenyan pinched Shen Dongqing's nose maliciously: "This way you won't be able to smell it."

Shen Dongqing: "Mmmm——"

I can't smell it anymore, but I can't breathe either.

Shen Dongqing patted Zhou Wenyan's hand away angrily, her black and white eyes seemed to be foggy, and she stared at him like that.

Zhou Wenyan laughed, and raised his hands to express that there would be no next time.

The two of them were so delayed here that other players had already found traces of the aborigines.

The jacket found a man standing behind the tree, showing a white arm, looking chubby, he just sighed in his heart that the food of the aborigines was pretty good, and walked forward.

"We are tourists who entered here by mistake, you..." the jacket said while patting the aborigine.

Before the jacket touched the aborigine's body, the man's head was turned around, and a soaked facial features stared straight at him.

The jacket uttered a swear word and kicked the aborigine out.

The aborigine looked fat, but he didn't really weigh much. He just flew out with one kick, and burst with a "bang" like a balloon that had been inflated.

Internal organs, muscles, and mucus splashed all over the place, and fell down in a profuse manner, just splashing the face of the jacket.

One step behind, the woman in the long skirt: "Ugh—"

Before the jacket had time to feel sick, he heard rustling sounds from all around him. He turned his head and suddenly met a face hanging from above. He was almost about to make in-depth contact.

The jacket was frightened, and they all froze in place, not kicking the thing away immediately.

The thing hanging down from the tree is a corpse. It has been soaked in the water for a long time, showing the appearance of a giant. It is so swollen that the original appearance cannot be seen, but there seems to be something that prevents the corruption of the corpse, allowing him to still Staying personal comes out scary.

Dialects from various places burst out from the mouth of the jacket, and finally came a sentence: "Run——"

Too bad it's too late.

The things in the surrounding woods finally arrived in time and surrounded the three trapped prey.

The girl in the long skirt trembled: "What, what should I do?"

The jacket wiped the mucus off his face: "Shut up!"

The girl with glasses picked up a thick branch for self-defense, and said, "I can only rush out."

"But, but..." the girl in the long skirt was about to cry, "There are so many..."

I don't know how many people drowned here. Bai Huahua's corpses surrounded the place tightly, and there were even two hanging on the branches.

"Then you just wait here to die!"

After finishing speaking, the girl in the jacket and the glasses took care of each other and rushed out. The girl in the long skirt had no choice but to hold back her fear and follow.

It's just that there are too many drowning ghosts. The water stains flowing down from their bodies formed small puddles, and the ground became extremely muddy. If you are not careful, you will fall into it, let alone run, it is difficult to walk.

After a short pause, the players were surrounded by drowned ghosts again.

The drowned ghosts kept coming, and the jacket couldn't hold on anymore.

At this moment, a voice came from not far away: "What are you doing?"

Jacket was overjoyed at first - there were other players coming to help, and then he was not happy for too long, he remembered that there were only two newcomers left besides their group.

It's good for the two newcomers not to be frightened when they saw this scene.

The jacket can only shout at them: "Run!"

Anyway, coming here is a sacrifice in vain, it is better to run away quickly.

With such a distracted effort, a drowned ghost jumped up at the opportunity. It was too late for the jacket to return to defense, and he could only watch helplessly as the swollen face was getting closer...

Just at this moment, a stone flew over and hit the drowned ghost directly on the forehead. Under the impact, the drowned ghost backed up again and again, and finally lost his balance and fell directly to the ground.

Shen Dongqing held another stone, tilted her head and asked, "Are you sure?"

It seemed like if the jackets let them go, they would literally turn around and go.

The jacket yelled without hesitation: "Help me—" Those who had no moral integrity knelt down.

There were a lot of drowned ghosts, and after being soaked in water, they were white and fat, and they were crowded together like glutinous rice balls.

Shen Dongqing: "I think..."

Zhou Wenyan had long been used to his wild ideas, so he quickly stopped him: "No, you don't want to."

Shen Dongqing shrugged: "Okay."

After the group of drowned ghosts froze for a moment, they found two more living people appeared, and rushed over excitedly.

Shen Dongqing kicked one of them flying. These drowned ghosts didn't seem to have a high IQ. After being kicked flying, they struggled to get up again.

Shen Dongqing was so annoyed that she found the leader of the drowned ghost in the crowd, and quickly grabbed him and pushed him to the ground.

The drowned ghost struggled frantically.

Shen Dongqing stepped on the drowned ghost and shook her head: "It's so ugly, so I hate the drowned ghost the most."

Drowned Ghost: ...Huh?

Is this even racist?

Shen Dongqing said with disgust: "Look at you, you are so ugly, stupid and stupid, did you lose your mind when you died?"

Other players: ...

The girl in the long skirt said in a low voice: "The one who drowned must have entered the water, right?"

The drowned ghost wept.

Talking and talking with personal attacks?

Seeing the dull expression on the faces of the drowned ghosts, Shen Dongqing kicked the leader of the drowned ghosts, and asked, "How did you die?"

The IQ of the drowned ghost was indeed not very high, and he could not communicate with the voice of "ahah" in his mouth.

Shen Dongqing understood part of it, the words the drowning ghost said were probably "sink", "drown", "turn over" and the like.

Shen Dongqing saw that she couldn't ask any questions, so she moved her foot away: "Okay, for the sake of your mental retardation, get out, I don't bully disabled ghosts."

The drowned ghost who was insulted by language: ...

They may have been hit, and they were not in the mood to find a substitute, and they receded like a tide.

After getting out of danger, the girl in the long skirt fell to the ground as soon as her legs gave way, and the girl in glasses and the jacket were too choking to sit on the ground and couldn't get up.

The woman with glasses panted, "Why are there so many drowned ghosts?"

Zhou Wenyan put his arms around his shoulders and leaned against a tree beside him: "Aborigines."

Aboriginal people painted on murals.

There is a painting that shows that after the sacrifice, the aborigines left a group of people on the island to guard the snake god, and the group of drowned ghosts should be that group of aborigines.

After what happened just now, the players have completely convinced these two people, and they don't have any doubts about Zhou Wenyan's guess.

"It's just..." said the woman with glasses, "Why did they all drown?"

Zhou Wenyan looked to the other side: "Go up and have a look."

He saw that the mountain was the highest place on the island.

The players climbed up and reached the top before nightfall, just in time to be able to look down on the entire island from a commanding height.

The shape of the island is circular, and there is a lake in the middle of the island, which is right in the center. The shape of the lake is also circular, like a large ring with a small ring.

The aborigines' residences painted on the murals were nowhere to be seen, and the vicinity of the island was a vast ocean with nothing but blue.

Jacket: "Impossible, the mural is clearly painted nearby..."

The woman with glasses said: "The mural may be exaggerated."

Jacket: "But where did those aborigines come from?"

Along the way, the players found no trace of human life at all, and the aborigines could only come from other islands.

Zhou Wenyan looked at the island below thoughtfully, his back suddenly sank, he turned his head, and saw Shen Dongqing lying on his shoulder.

Shen Dongqing put her arms around Zhou Wenyan's neck and yawned: "Did you find any clues?"

Zhou Wenyan: "I thought of the snake yesterday."

The snakes I met on the road yesterday and the murals painted on the walls all have snake tails connected to form a circular shape. I don't know what they are implying.

While they were contemplating, the girl in the long skirt suddenly exclaimed: "I remembered!"

After attracting the attention of others, she lowered her head in embarrassment and said in a low voice, "Yorman Gund."

The tattooed man said that the name of the island was Joshashade, which happened to match the name.

None of the players present had heard of this name, even if they wanted to take out their mobile phones to Baidu, there was no signal at all on this island, so they could only catch them blind.

The girl in the long skirt recalled something again, and said: "This name is a monster in Nordic mythology, the worldly python, which connects head to tail and forms a world."

The players immediately thought of the totem drawn on the mural, which was also a snake with its head and tail connected.

Jacket: "Even if we know the name of this island, for us now..." In the middle of speaking, he suddenly stopped, his eyes widened, "This island——"

Zhou Wenyan explained the facts calmly: "We are on the back of a giant python."

So instead of the yacht disappearing, the entire island disappeared.

This is a rootless island, which is constantly moving, and at the same time it is also floating up and down, so the area of ​​​​the island is shrinking unconsciously.

And the group of aborigines probably discovered the island and landed while Yorman Gund was moving. They thought they saw a miracle, so they turned back and brought sacrifices to worship the snake god.

And Yorman Gund is not fixed in a certain place, nor does he always float on the water, so there are no wild animals on the island, let alone people.

As for what the drowning ghost said just now, I am afraid that this snake turned over and everyone was drowned.

The woman with glasses lowered her voice, for fear of waking up the behemoth: "Then what should we do now?"

Jacket said: "The island is constantly moving. Even if there is a flight path nearby, we have no way to ask other people for help, let alone leave here."

Zhou Wenyan: "Who said no?" He paused, "Do you remember the game clearance requirements?"

Shen Dongqing raised her hands very actively, trying to be a good student: "I remember——find a way to leave this island."

Zhou Wenyan said lazily: "Then swim out, does it count as leaving?"

Other players hesitated.

After all, there may be a huge monster under the sea, and even a snake as big as an island. Humans are always afraid of the unknown.

Jacket: "We must not be able to swim under the water..."

Needless to say, the creatures that captured the tattooed man before, those drowned ghosts are even more difficult to deal with. If you swim out directly, you will definitely encounter these things.

Shen Dongqing made a particularly reliable suggestion: "Kill them all."

It doesn't matter if you can't swim, just kill it.

Is it particularly simple?

Other players: Hehe, it's so simple...

Zhou Wenyan made a more reliable suggestion: "The aborigines must have boats."

The aborigines certainly didn't expect that the sturdy island would suddenly sink, and even if they had a boat, they would be drowned just like that. They went to look for it, and maybe they could find it.

With a way to leave the island, the players were very motivated. After spending the night on the mountain, they set out to find a boat at dawn.I searched around in the woods where the drowned wandered, and I did find a wooden boat.

After experiencing wind and rain, the wooden boat does not look very strong, but it is not a big problem. As long as they leave the island, they will complete the task.

The two women in jackets and glasses dragged the wooden boat to the beach.

As the night passed, the area of ​​the island became smaller, and there was no trace of the beach at all, and even the coconut tree disappeared.

The waves rushed in one after another, and the island sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, the players quickly pushed the wooden boat out and boarded the boat one by one.

The wooden boat floated out unsteadily, and the players each held a wooden paddle and slid desperately.

Shen Dongqing sat at the stern of the boat, resting her chin and looking down at the water.

The sea water was clear, and a white shadow could be seen flashing past, and then faces floated up one by one, surrounding the wooden boat.

The jacket went down, smashing the drowned ghost on one side.

It's just that the number of drowned ghosts is really too much, some retreated, and more came up, they surrounded the wooden boat, and there was the sound of wood being chewed from below.

"Row out quickly!"

Perhaps these creatures sensed that the player was about to leave the island, and they all came out to stop them. The drowned ghosts supported each other, and finally a pair of pale hands touched the edge of the wooden boat, and they climbed up with a strong push.

The drowned ghost propped himself up, showing a swollen smile, and looked at the person sitting in the stern, intending to drag him into the water as a stand-in.

Shen Dongqing smiled at him politely and greeted him.

The drowned ghost split open in an instant.

why is it you again? ? ?
