"Get ashore !!!"
The sudden roar came from Vedsolrell on the riverbank, Gilmy's father, a clever carpenter.The wood carvings he made were very popular among people, especially the children of the aristocracy, and they could be combined into something different by simple building, and those wooden ornaments were the latest styles loved by the ladies.Today, Wade found that he had forgotten to bring lunch after going to the woodworks, so he walked back to the hut at noon to prepare for dinner, and heard Gillamie's laughter on the way, so he came to have a look.This unintentional look defused a disaster.The two children were having fun in the river, and when they heard the roar, they ran away to the shore without looking back.But the shadow in the water was even faster than they moved, and the shadow leaped high from the water and made a large splash.That's a very ferocious Danube catfish!
Seeing this, Wade took out the wooden spear he had brought with him to defend against the beast, and threw it at the catfish that leaped up and pounced on the two children.This swift stab obviously could not be compared to the power of the spearman on the battlefield, this stab gave Wade very little time to prepare, and he was afraid that the huge six-whiskered catfish would swallow Gillammy in one gulp.Although this six-whiskered catfish does not have fish scales like other fish, it has a slippery epidermis and mucus secreted from the skin, and most of the impact from the tip of the spear is absorbed by the tough epidermis, and the mucus slides down the epidermis to the side.This hasty stab didn't have the effect of piercing it through!
But the catfish still suffered from pain and looked even more angry.Seeing that the six-bearded catfish had decreased slightly, but the direction was still towards the children, and in desperation, Vedsorel could only fly over and try to hit the catfish with his elbow and knock it back into the riverbank.The moment the two sides touched, Wade knew it was going to be bad.This huge catfish is about seventy or eighty kilograms, and with the impact of the high jump, although the impact has been slightly slowed down by the previous time, it still hurts like being hit by the sumo wrestler.A click, a sound came from the habitual right hand, which was the result of the impact, a fracture.And the catfish was also unwillingly knocked down into the river.Wade walked to the shore, first examined the two stunned children, who were fine except for some minor injuries from the bumps of the stones, and touched their heads with his intact left hand."
Gillamy, go and carry my things, let's go home first.Hello Philip, you've grown a lot taller. ”Wade endured the pain and cold, and Gilmy went without saying a word to carry some of the tools that his father was originally carrying, and walked in front, and Philip also walked back with him.The group soon returned to the windmill hut, and when Pvent saw this, he rushed forward to help Gillumie take the things off his back and put them on the ground, and went to get some first aid supplies from the donkey cart, and asked, "What's the matter?"
This hand ...Hiss...I'm afraid it's not a fracture... ”Wade stretched out his injured right hand to examine Pvent, and said helplessly, "It's obvious that this little rabbit kid Gilmmy forgot that I told him not to go into the water."
Hey, you tap, if I hadn't just walked by, hey, these two little bunnies would probably have been swallowed. ”Provent looked at Wade and asked, "Is that the overlord?"
”Wade said helplessly, "Yes, I haven't caught that overlord for so many years."
I've just seen that Overlord grow to a height taller than Philip. ”Provent gave Wade some medicine and said, "Why don't we organize some people to fight it?"
”Wade was silent, thinking, and then said, "Maybe it's time to arrest it, it is said that several children disappeared after playing by the river, and the collective disappearance case only has a clue about the shoes left on the riverbank, maybe it was also this overlord who swallowed the child."
It's mating season lately, and this beast is too aggressive. ”Provent said, "Wade, you'd better go to the hospital for this arm, thank you for saving my son, and I can provide you with some resources before you get back to work." ”Wade smiled and said, "Ge Laozi, your child's life is worth so much money with my arm?"
Whatever you say, add more gold marks!
”Later, Wade went to the city hospital for treatment, after all, this is a habitual hand, and for a carpenter, it would be troublesome if he left sequelae after an injury to his habitual hand.At this time, Pvent organized the villagers to go to catch the overlord together, and just when they were all ready, an old man who lived upstream suddenly rushed out and said to the people in the fishing team, "You can't catch it!"
Can't fish!
Without the River God, we will suffer more losses, and we will enter endless despair!
”Hearing this, Pvent frowned and asked politely, "Old man, what did Lord River God say?"
”The townspeople next to him laughed, and one of them said, "Isn't it just a fish, and a river god?"
What a joke. ”The old man's face was flushed with anxiety, he stomped his feet, and said, "If the river god does not bless us, the whole of Europe will enter a catastrophe!"
It's been here for hundreds of years, it's been here for hundreds of years!
”Provent was a little unimpressed when he heard this, how can any catfish live for hundreds of years?
He said to the old man, "Let's go and see, so be it, and go back and rest early." ”A group of men set out on the banks of the Danube, armed with harpoons and large fishing nets, small ones of which were of no use.The Danube is currently in a calm state, and people's daily life depends on this slow flow, so the Danube is generally relatively clean and free of garbage.They use trawl nets with drooping rocks underneath them.Once both sides were ready, the grid in the upper reaches was much larger than the usual dense fishing nets, but there was absolutely no room for the overlord to struggle.This special design is to avoid destroying the original ecology of the river, and it is not cost-effective to catch some fry by mistake because of fishing.At the end of the net, the overlord finally couldn't lurk anymore and struggled between the two nets.The excited townsmen rushed forward and pulled the overlord to the shore together.Red-eyed, they stabbed the overlord into the body with their harpoons.Provent looked at this savage scene with some discomfort and turned his head away, but he vaguely saw anger and sadness in the protruding fish eyes.These villagers cut the body of the overlord, and even because some villagers took out their daggers and cut the fish fillets and ate them raw, they attracted others to follow suit.It was dark, it was raining, and in the slightest rain, the fish-eyed of the overlord laughed at these stupid people.The old man knelt by the river, kept kowtowing, and shouted, "Lord River God!
Lord River God!
”Pvent felt that all this in front of him was extremely strange to him.The overlord's body was cut open by the villagers, and no severed limbs of the missing children were found, and there was only a little fish and shrimp in his stomach.Pvent didn't understand whether it was right or wrong, the crying old man, the frantically celebrating villagers, the wounded Wade.While everyone's attention was on enjoying the flesh and blood of the overlord, no one noticed that a black shadow appeared in the river, and the black shadow slowly reached the shore, and people suddenly felt a chill.It was a gaze, not a voyeuristic gaze, nor a reconnaissance gaze, but a gaze that contained malice, like the feeling of a hare being targeted by a goshawk, but with a feeling of enjoying the pain of the overlord.The people fled in a hurry on the banks of the river, but some of the greedy chose to carry the huge body of the overlord on their backs, and when Pvent felt bad, he ran forward without looking back.The greedy people, who had not taken a few steps, felt that their bodies and legs were entangled in something, and one of the bold ones peeked back and saw something like a black whip, it was a tentacle of a creature with large and small bumps on it!
Suddenly, the pimple on the tentacles protruding from the river exploded, splashing dark green slurry, and the part of the tentacle that wrapped the body of the greedy people felt the hot pain, and the surface skin melted as if it had been corroded by strong acid.After squirting out those dark green slurry, the pimples on the tentacles turned into eyeballs without eyeballs, looking at the world without emotion, after some looking, the man who looked back and peeked was only left with fear in his mind, and even the call for help had been lost.Fear took over his sanity, and he threw down the fish in his hand and grabbed his eyes with both hands, and blinded himself by force.The pain irritated his nerves, "Ah!
”A cry of sorrow became his last words.The weeping old man saw all this madness, and common sense ceased to exist in the world, except for the fear of unspeakable objects, and he cried out in a frenzy, "The river god is dead!"
The river god is dead!
The Sealed Thing is out!
We're all going to die!
We're all going to die!
”The terror in the old man's eyes did not belong to any kind of creature he knew, and no terror could be compared with it, because any terror understood by human beings was not worth mentioning in front of it.Those who were greedy were dragged into the darkness of the water by those tentacles, and the water was covered with bright red spray.The darkness in the water floated on the surface of the river, and it was a terrifying existence.Like a giant amoeba made of asphalt, there were tens of thousands of pus-like eyes glowing green on its tentacles sticking out from everywhere, and its entire amorphous body emitted a foul stench and squirmed and flowed forward.Pvent continued to run forward, a filthy whisper in his head, "Tykeley—Leigh!"
Tykeley – Leigh!
”The voice contained emotions such as misery, abandonment, resentment, and loneliness, just like an abandoned puppy, but this creature did not have any cuteness of a puppy, and even a glance at it would be devastating.Provent's mind was immersed in the filthy murmur, and fell into the boundless void, wandering in endless darkness, with only the filthy voice remaining; As the mind is lost, the action also enters a slow stop.Everyone present stood or lay on their stomachs, only the indescribable creature was happily eating, pulling the humans around them with their tentacles, stuffing them into the liquid body, and then melting them into its nutrients.At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck the protoplasmic creature, which spewed out a large amount of dark green liquid, as well as some human stumps that had not yet had time to digest, and hastily dived into the water and left the Danube with its wounds.No one knows where it went, but at the same time no one wants to know, because the appearance of this creature is as deadly as a plague for humans.A belated sound of thunder arrived, breaking through the darkness in Provent's mind and becoming the light that symbolized hope, awakening Provent from the brink of madness.Provent did not dare to look back at the tragic situation by the river, and silently returned to the gathering place with his head bowed; The other villagers who were lucky enough to survive also trembled and went back with them, and some even lost consciousness and fell to the ground when they reached the entrance of the village.The villagers sensed the dwindling numbers and the eerie silence and asked what was happening, but the survivors were reluctant to mention a word about it, because no one wanted to recall the memory and the fear, even if it would stay with them for the rest of their lives.Some curious villagers went to the terrible scene and shouted the words of the mad old man, which were the punishment of the river god.The next day, a reporter from the daily newspaper Ulm came to the scene of the crime and took a photo.It was with grief that he wrote this passage and put it in the headline the next day.The anger of the Danube on April 13, 1879 or the mass disappearance?
In the case of children missing on the banks of the Danube, it is suspected that the catfish in the river became aggressive during the mating period and attacked the children who were playing near the river.On this day, more than 50 villagers went to capture the Danube catfish in the river, but they were opposed by the village elders.The old man called the six-whiskered catfish named Overlord as the river god, and everyone would die if they killed the river god.After the successful capture of the six-whiskered catfish, named Overlord, there was a mass disappearance.A mysterious dark green slime can be found on the river beach at the scene of the crime, some mutilated parts of limbs that are clearly human, and blood stains.We can't deduce from this whether these people are missing or dead, but we can guess that what happened here is horrific.There are still no survivors willing to disclose the situation.William Hanser, a reporter from the Ulm Daily: In the picture, the overlord is cut into several sections, and the bulging eyes are actually humane and look at the sky with a hint of pity.
