Chapter 7 Misty Fishing Village



After nightfall, Yujia Village was no longer quiet and peaceful. The villagers turned off the lights early, and the usually naughty children also crawled into bed obediently at this time, without making any noise.

The monsters wandering in the fog seemed to have made an agreement, or perhaps they were restricted by some force and would not harm the people sleeping in the house.

But they will climb on the windows or squeeze into the house through the cracks in the door. Once the people in the house make a noise, the monsters will come out in droves.

In the house where the stranger lived, a pool of blood and mud flowed in from the crack of the door, hit the ground with a "pa" sound, and then crawled towards the person on the bed.

The quilt on the bed was shaking, and the man hiding inside could feel the cold pool of flesh and blood approaching. His teeth were chattering, his eyes were closed tightly, cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he prayed frantically for it to go away quickly.

There was no movement for a long time. The man opened his eyes with a lucky mentality, but he found that the pool of blood and flesh had not gone away. A mouse was trapped in the blood and flesh and was being swallowed up bit by bit.

A pair of eyeballs were preserved in the flesh and blood, and organs of various sizes were faintly visible. The way it swallowed the mouse looked like a greedy fat man stuffing food into his mouth in big mouthfuls.

Nausea, vomiting, fear...

A series of emotions overwhelmed the man. Unable to bear the torment, he rushed out of the house for his life. When he saw countless monsters outside, his mind completely collapsed and he burst into tears.

He spotted an acquaintance and began to cry out, "Help me! Li Cong, help me!"

Mu Mu was shoeless, and her delicate skin couldn't stand the rubbing. After walking for a while, she refused to walk any further. Looking at this scene, her beautiful face showed no emotion, and she just sniffed.

This person doesn't smell good and doesn't taste good.

He set his eyes on Li Cong, sniffed the food, and concluded that it was not as delicious as Yu Chen's.

At this moment, a big hand gently grasped Mu Mu's waist. Mu Mu watched the ground under his feet getting farther and farther away from him, and sat down on the hard shoulders.

Mu Mu swung his long legs in the air, and looked at the giant's plain face with a smile, "Thank you."

A suspicious blush appeared on the giant's face, and his voice was hoarse and unpleasant. "...You...be good...sit well...."

Mumu was hungry, so to save energy she leaned her head against the giant's side, "Hmmmm."

The giant's face turned red.

When the little owl saw Mu Mu changed his position, it quickly flew to his shoulder and rubbed against Mu Mu's little face, "Woo~Woo~"

The fur on its body made Mu Mu feel very itchy. "Hahaha, you've tickled my flesh. Can you sit in my arms?"

So the little owl was held in Mumu's arms as a doll.

Li Cong was not in the same good mood as Mu Miao.

The man's cry for help lingered in his ears, his head lowered. He was very self-aware and knew that the reason these monsters didn't kill him was because he was a pretty little monster that looked easy to bully.

Li Cong saw that the flesh and blood had already devoured half of the man's leg. He pursed his lips and said, "Mumu."

Mu Mu tilted his head to look at him. Because his name was difficult to pronounce, acquaintances just called him Mu Mu, and he was very sensitive to this name.

The wind was very strong at night, blowing up Mu Mu's oversized clothes, revealing his slender waist. He felt a leak in his waist, so he pulled at his clothes, but ended up patching up the east wall with the west wall, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin on his upper body.

He hugged the giant's neck in a disheveled state, and said lazily, "Well, what's the matter?"

Fortunately, from Li Cong's angle, he could only see Mu Mu's calves, otherwise his live broadcast room would be short of pants again.

Li Cong opened his mouth, unable to speak. He wanted Mu Mu to save that person, but on what basis? They were players, the opposite of NPCs. His survival depended entirely on Mu Mu.

But Mu Mu had no reason to help him save others.

Li Cong looks big and strong, with a simple mind and strong limbs, but he is delicate in interpersonal relationships and will not use moral blackmail on others.

Besides, Mu Mu is not a human...

Mu Miao looked over with clear eyes, "Do you want me to save him?"

Li Cong was struck by this, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to do. "I was just thinking about it, but I also know that I'm a weakling living in this place and I can't save anyone. Don't worry about my thoughts. I don't mind whether you save me or not."

Mu Miao blinked, finding a mistake in his words, "You are a human, not a chicken."

Li Cong's mouth twitched, "...metaphor, metaphor, you know it."

Mu Miao suddenly realized, "Is that so."

Li Cong held a faint expectation in his heart, "So, what is your decision?"

Mu Mu's voice was sweet, "No."

Li Cong: “…”

How could he say such cold words with such a pure and sweet expression?

Mu Mu had no psychological burden and adapted well to the bloody scene of people being eaten. He waited leisurely for dawn.

It was dawn, and it was time for him to work. After get off work, he needed to go back to the sea to catch fish for the Yu family.

Well, he's a busy fish.

At this moment, Mu Mu felt the hardships of being a corporate slave and couldn't help but sigh that it was really difficult to have enough food to eat!

On such a difficult night, Li Cong managed to get through it safely by relying on his identity as Mu Mu's toy.

Li Cong lived in a peacetime, and the fear brought by facing the blood made him dazed for a long time. He vomited several times before he adapted.

Mu Miao looked at Li Cong who had not put down the candle in his hand and asked curiously, "Is there anything special about this candle in your hand? Why do you keep holding it?"

Li Cong smiled bitterly, "My mission is to protect the candle. If the candle is gone, I will die too."

Mu Mu was stunned, his eyes wide. "Isn't your mission to protect the fire? What does it have to do with candles?"

Li Cong was not surprised that Mu Miao knew about his mission. He was a god-level NPC, so it was normal for him to know so much.

He said with certainty, "Fire, fire, there must be fire. Isn't a candle fire?"

Mu Mu looked doubtful. Is that so? But he felt something was not right. However, Li Cong's expression was very firm, making him suspect that he was wrong.

Li Cong regained his spirits and said loudly to Mu Miao, "Let me tell you, it was because we had no candles that the bald man who shared a room with me was instantly found by the monster and got a box lunch on the spot."

"I took the candle, and my speed was so fast that even the monster couldn't catch me. That's the power the candle gave me! Look, it's living proof. Don't you believe me?"

Mu Miao: “…”

He used his little head to think about it, came up with another idea, moved his body and leaned out, with almost half of his body hanging outside.

The giant was afraid that he would fall, so he held Mu Mu's back with one finger and placed the other hand in the air to ensure that if Mu Mu fell, he could catch him immediately.

Mu Miao speculated: "Li Cong, is it possible that the light from your candle was reflected by the bald head, which exposed the bald uncle?"

Remembering the uncle's shiny head, Li Cong fell silent.

[Hahahaha, I witnessed the whole process and I’m telling you, honey, you’re right!]

My son is so stupid, I can't bear to take him out. It's too embarrassing.

[Bald Uncle: Listen to me and thank you, because of you...]

Mu Miao discovered that there were people in the world who were even dumber than him, and he felt sympathy for them.

Mu Mu's intelligence reached its peak at this moment. "Old players can gain various abilities in different dungeons. Running fast is a very common skill."

Li Cong was not stupid. He looked at the dark village and silently threw away the candle. The candle rolled on the ground for a few times and was extinguished by a foot.

Li Cong just didn't think clearly for a moment, but he soon figured out what was going on.

His eyes dimmed instantly, and he squatted down dejectedly, hugging his knees with his arms, looking aggrieved like a 180-pound child.

"I never provoked him. He wanted information, so I had to go door to door to find it for him. He said he had experienced five or six dungeons and was very impressive. He only told me the meaning of the dungeon missions because he appreciated me... Liar!"

Li Cong's eyes were red and he felt indignant. He trusted that person so much, but he was cheated and almost lost his life. Wouldn't that person feel guilty for doing such a bad thing?

Mu Mu sighed, fortunately he met Yu Chen, an extremely kind man who provided him with food and drink and even held him in his arms to bask in the sun.

When Mu Miao thought of Yu Chen, a smile appeared in his eyes, shining brightly, as if the stars in the sky fell into his eyes, dazzling and making people unable to look away.

Li Cong looked up at the young man sitting high on the giant's shoulder, with a few tears remaining on his long eyelashes. His temperament had changed drastically, his immaturity faded away, and he became more calm.

He stood up and bowed solemnly to Mu Mu, "Mu Mu, thank you."

He thought that humans were his kind and gave their all, but he didn't expect that he was being treated like a stupid monkey and was being played around with. He didn't even know how the human was laughing at him behind his back.

Li Cong seemed to have thought of something, and looked anxious, "Mu Mu!"

Mu Mu was dozing off drowsily when she heard the sound and was startled, "Huh?"

Li Cong's face flushed red as he hurriedly explained, "Mu Mu, I just want to tell you that I'm not stupid, really! Although I'm a sports student, I also scored over 600 points in the cultural exam. Actually...actually, I'm still very smart!"

He was afraid that his stupid behavior would affect his image in Mu Mu's heart. Li Cong blushed and observed Mu Mu's expression, fearing that he would see contempt or something like that on his face.

Mu Miao was stubborn. "Wow, you scored so many points on the test, that's amazing! Jingnan took the college entrance exam five or six times and still didn't pass...ah!"

Before Mu Mu could finish his words, a pitch-black tentacle wrapped around his slender waist and he flew into the air. The giant tried to reach out and grab him, but his hand was empty.

Li Cong's expression changed, "Mu Mu!"

The tall man waved powerful tentacles behind him. He held Mu Mu tightly and looked at Li Cong with eyes as cold as if he was looking at a dead person.

Under Li Cong's angry gaze, the man bit Mu Mu's delicate face in dissatisfaction, "Mine."

The man looked at Li Cong and declared his sovereignty possessively, "You are very weak."

In nature, only the strong can get everything they want, but the little devil in front of him is so weak that he can't even stand a single blow.

"You!" Li Cong was furious and wanted to snatch Mu Mu back.

The strange tentacle hit his abdomen with the force of thunder. Li Cong had no power to fight back and fell miserably to the ground. The blow almost broke his ribs and blood flowed out of his mouth.

Li Cong's internal organs were about to be shattered, and he was dying. In the increasingly blurred world, he watched the man take Mu Mu away.

The little owl's feathers suddenly exploded, and its body grew hundreds of times larger. The huge bird that blocked out the sky and the sun chased after Mu Mu.

The monsters roared into the fog, but when they smelled the man's scent, they stopped their fire, knowing that it was Zaizai's family coming to look for the child.

Mu Mu fell into Wen Liang's arms. The tall man held him, his strong arms tightly around his waist, and his head rubbed against his neck, like a dog that hadn't seen its owner for a long time.

The enthusiasm is overwhelming.

Mu Mu's brain froze, and he hadn't come to his senses yet. He was stunned as someone hugged him and arched his neck. He could feel the man's tall nose rubbing against his neck.

It's itchy, sticky and uncomfortable.

Mu Miu tilted her head back, trying to avoid the man's head. Her soft hands pushed the man's chest and she whimpered like a kitten, "Go away, you bad boy! You hurt me..."
