Chapter 271 There is something in the water

The small wooden boat began to sail.

Luo Xi and Dou Dou sat side by side in the front row, with the watchdog squatting in the back. In the dim environment, the two of them and the dog played this obviously abnormal game together.

The only source of light here is the oil lamp on the small wooden boat.

As the boat swayed, the oil lamp also swayed from side to side, and the light and shadow moved, which combined with the various fairy-tale scenes and characters that began to appear on both sides of the river, perfectly interpreted the weirdness and abnormality.

The two were silent.

Except for the sound of the gurgling water, the boat was eerily quiet.

After a long time, Doudou broke the silence.

"What's wrong with your dog?" She turned her head to look, then reached out to touch it.

Then, when she wanted to pet the dog, she touched the fatal wound on the dog's body.

"Undead? You have a very strange taste." Doudou said immediately.

"Its owner is in Fairy Tale Town now." Luo Xi said.

"I see. You look cold-blooded, but I didn't expect you to be quite loyal and sentimental."

"I don't."

"Heh, who was it that secretly signaled to me to stop those three guys from participating in the game?"

"Then Doudou, why do you insist on accompanying me on the boat?"

Changing the topic and counterattacking is the most basic operation.

"If I can't go on the boat with you to play, how can I accompany you?"

"I've said before that your lying skills need to be improved."

"Woo~"

The watchdog made a sound at this time. Luo Xi turned his head and found that the dog was looking down at the water.

"When did this stream become so wide?" Luo Xi discovered something was wrong.

Just as he was chatting with the other party, the artificial river, which was originally only about three meters wide, had become at least seven or eight meters wide. Because of the dim light, only some outlines could be seen on both sides.

Doudou also looked around.

"Logically speaking, for this kind of travel scene, there should be models with sound, light and electricity effects on both sides. Well, have you turned on the switch of this scene?" Luo Xi asked again.

"It's on." Doudou stood up and picked up the oil lamp on the hook, raised it and shone it. The next moment, a lamp seemed to appear on the distant shore. It seemed that there was someone standing there with a lamp.

Because the lights over there are also shaking.

"Your people?" Luo Xi asked.

Doudou looked serious and shook his head.

"Huh!" Luo Xi remained silent. He was not surprised by this situation. Based on his observation, it was obvious that Doudou did not understand this game project, because it was not designed by her, and she was not even among the participating designers.

In addition, Doudou has a fear of this game project called "Traveling in Fairy Tale Town".

She used barriers to block off this place and sealed off the entrance to this area, which means that she actually wanted to cover up something. This cover-up might not be her original intention, but it must be based on some reason.

Interestingly, she herself seemed to be very curious about this matter and had a desire to explore it.

His arrival was just a catalyst. Luo Xi even thought that even if he didn't come, it wouldn't be long before she couldn't help but explore the secret of the matter herself.

In short, she didn't know much about this place, so she couldn't make any advance preparations or risk assessments for what would happen next.

"There are oars, let's row over and see." Doudou said at this time, then picked up the oars on the small wooden boat, handed one to Luo Xi, and took one herself, and began to row clumsily. However, because she had an elite B-level enhanced physique, although her movements were not standard at all, she rowed very fast.

But just as they were approaching the shore, the person holding the lamp in the darkness disappeared again.

From this distance you can see the beautiful scenery on the shore.

Shine from the light on the boat, you can see a forest-like scene with flowers, trees, and various small animal shapes, but it is obvious that they are all built with curtains and wooden boards.

"Where are the people?" Doudou frowned, looking unprepared for the current situation.

At this time, Luo Xi turned his head and looked at the other side of the shore. In the darkness in the distance, a light lit up.

Doudou seemed to notice it as well. She turned her head and got angry.

"Okay, I'd like to see what's playing tricks on my turf." Doudou snorted coldly, and started paddling hard again like a diesel engine with tens of thousands of horsepower. The boat swayed back and forth. Luo Xi was fine, but the dog couldn't stand it anymore and started barking.

At the beginning it was woof, woof!
But it soon turned into woof woof woof
Just like the drum beats in the game of pass the parcel at the last moment, it is dense and rapid.

"No!" Luo Xi glanced at the black Labrador retriever, which was barking at the water.

"Wait a minute, Doudou, there's something in the water"

Luo Xi had just given a reminder when he suddenly saw something huge passing by under the water.

Immediately afterwards, the small wooden boat was hit hard by a powerful force, and the two people and the dog on it flew up directly, and then fell into the water one after another.

It happened so suddenly.

Luo Xi felt dizzy and then fell into the cold water. Due to the huge inertia, his whole body was submerged in the water. In addition to feeling that the water was unbearably cold, there was another situation that surprised him.

The water is deep!
Generally, indoor amusement facilities like this and artificial rivers with small boats are not very deep and are rather shallow.

The depth is at most one meter.

But now Luo Xi felt himself sinking into the water, his feet unable to reach the bottom.

Because the incident happened suddenly, Luo Xi also took a few sips of water, but he would never panic over such things. He swallowed the water directly, then swam and floated to the surface.

It was dark all around.

Then, Luo Xi heard a dog barking.

"Here!" Luo Xi shouted, and then heard the barking of dogs approaching and the sound of paddling in the water.

"Beanie!"

Luo Xi shouted again.

No movement.

Something is not right. With Doudou's physique reaching elite B level, and being as ferocious in rowing as in a boat with an engine and propeller, it is unlikely that he will suffer any loss in such an emergency.

Unless, she can't swim!

"." Luo Xi and Gou Zi looked at each other.

Except for the sound of water, the surroundings were still quiet.

Luo Xi: “No way!”

Gouzi: “.”

"Find her!" Luo Xi said, and the watchdog immediately dived into the water. Its doggy paddling style was very efficient, and its shadow could no longer be seen.

Luo Xi also took a deep breath and dived underwater to explore.

After a long time, Luo Xi emerged from the water, took a breath, and then the dog also floated up.

After this guy was transformed and resurrected by the [Undead] card, he is actually a living corpse. The advantage is that he doesn't need to eat, drink, or breathe.

So no one can compare to his diving skills.

Luo Xi grabbed one person's hand, and Gou Zi grabbed another person's collar, and together they pulled out Doudou, who had been soaking there for several minutes.

Obviously, the other party really can't swim.

Of course I can’t die.

Most people would get cold after being down there for such a long time, but with Doudou's physique, he wouldn't die even if he soaked there for a while longer.

However, coma caused by suffocation and lack of oxygen cannot be avoided.

"Swim over there!" Luo Xi said to the dog, and the watchdog immediately paddled over with the clothes in its mouth. It took a while before they got close to the shore. The man and the dog worked together to drag Doudou up.

After climbing onto the shore, Gou Zi shook off the water. Luo Xi wiped his face and looked around. There was no light and he couldn't see anything clearly.

But something was not right.

There was grass under my feet, real grass, and underneath that was soil, which gave off the unique scent of grass, trees, and soil. However, it was not a fresh smell, but rather a rancid smell, like the lingering smell of flesh and blood rotting in the soil over a long period of time.

Moreover, there seemed to be fog around, and the unique damp and cold feeling in the fog was like countless densely packed cold little insects clinging to the skin.

"Goo~Goo~"

There was a strange noise in the distance.

Luo Xi listened.

"The sound of an owl?"

This surprised Luo Xi a little. He almost immediately grabbed a stone on the ground and threw it hard in the direction where the sound came from.

slap~
In the darkness, the stone seemed to hit something, there was a noise, the owl's cry stopped abruptly, and at the same time, the sound of flapping wings and flying away was heard, from near to far.

“It’s not a recording!”

Recordings can't create this level of 'interaction'.

Woohoo~
The undead guard dog next to him growled, as if it had sensed something. Luo Xi reached out and patted the dog on the head.

"Don't get excited. All actions must follow my orders. Now, don't make any noise. Be alert!"

Luo Xi's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

But he was sure that the dog could hear and understand.

Because the watchdog bent down and no longer growled, but it seemed to be ready to rush out as long as the command was given.

Just then, Luo Xi discovered that Doudou next to him was missing.

Just as he was thinking about this question, he heard Doudou's voice in his ears.

"Don't move, there is something watching us in front."

Doudou woke up!

Right behind Luo Xi.

It turned out to be an elite B-level enhanced physique, and the fainting only lasted for a short time.

Her self-healing ability is absolutely terrifying.

The next moment, there was some movement in front, which seemed to be the sound of clothes rubbing against each other. Then, with a click, someone struck a match.

Light appears.

The surrounding scenery in front gradually emerged along with the burning match.

A forest, a path, and an old woman holding a match and lighting the oil lamp next to her.

The old woman was dressed very strangely, a dirty and tattered robe, a hood covering her head, and she had a hunchback and an ugly appearance. Her most obvious feature, besides the pimples and wrinkles on her face, was that her lower lip hung down to her chest.

Weird and terrifying.

The old woman laughed at this time and said to Luo Xi: "Welcome, if you want to truly travel to Fairy Tale Town, you need to make the right choice next. So, are you ready?"

Luo Xi didn't say anything. He leaned back and whispered, "You don't know him?"

Doudou shook his head solemnly.
