under hope

She was a miserable child. Her parents died in a shipwreck when she was ten years old. Before she had time to grieve, she was thrown into the sea by the village chief.

The ocean did not accept her. She only knew that the huge waves sent her back to the beach again and again.

The sea water poured into her mouth and nose wantonly, and she was about to suffocate, but death always passed her by.

She has an extraordinary mission.

Haiyang told her so.

There is a festival going on in the village right now, people exploring the sea are here, and sinners are on their way to the ocean.

She had to go there quickly. She had to find the village chief. Only she could talk to the sea.

She trotted all the way, asking around for the village chief, but no one knew where the village chief had gone.

"This will make the God of the Sea unhappy."

"Grandpa, he doesn’t understand the words of God."

She was extremely anxious

"Welcome everyone, the festival has begun..."

The voice of the village party secretary attracted her attention, and she looked towards the source of the sound.

"Huh?"

She saw a girl about her own age with brown hair and beautiful eyes.

"Ah~, girls, girls from outside!"

"Can we become friends?"

Her eyes were shining and she murmured

"No, now is not the time to make friends."

She patted her face and shook her head again

"I have to follow that guy."

The village party secretary was introducing the festival to the group of people. Although most of the people had dispersed, there was still an older man following the village party secretary.

They seemed to be taking a walk, and she followed them secretly.

"how long have you been here? asked the man

"It's been seven or eight years."

The village party secretary smiled bitterly.

"Are all your family members local?"

The man asked again

"Yes, my parents are over there."

The village party secretary's tone was a little sad.

"Are your wife and children over there?"

The man said in a half-joking tone.

"No, I'm not married yet."

The village party secretary smiled sheepishly.

"Do you think the girls here don't like you?"

The man continued jokingly

"Alas, that's not the case. I am eager to improve the village and have no time."

The village party secretary sighed and smiled relievedly.

"Why do you look like the captain?"

The man patted the head of the village party secretary and continued::

"But the captain is still young. Wouldn't it be better to have a family-oriented woman behind you at your age?"

"Hey, I'm fine alone"

"It’s so busy here that I can’t spend time with my wife even if I marry her"

"Follow me and suffer."

The village party secretary had a bitter look on his face and shook his head helplessly.

"You kid... forget it, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going for a walk."

When the man saw that the village party secretary couldn't move, he waved his hand and said goodbye to him.

"Brother Yang, go to the market and have a look. Many things are delicious."

The village party secretary shouted to the man

"knew."

The man waved his hand behind him.

The village party secretary walked towards the only restaurant in the village again, as if confirming something with the boss.

There was no place to hide around, so she could only hide far away behind the tile jar containing the fish. Watching their every move.

After an unknown amount of time, the village party secretary waved goodbye to the restaurant owner and strode forward again.

This time, the village party secretary walked into the village committee, and she hurriedly followed him, leaning against her back. The wall of the village committee

"Where is the village chief?"

This is the voice of the village party secretary

"I don’t know, maybe I went to the place of worship in advance."

This is the voice of the strong man who often follows the village chief.

""Squeak..."

The door was opened without warning, and she hurriedly lowered her head and pretended to think.

"Um? The village chief grandpa is not here."

The village party secretary noticed her.

She nodded and left with mechanical steps.

The village party secretary didn't think much or pay much attention to her, but walked towards the next location.

He went to the police station! Oh, By the way, grandpa said that the switch at the police station should be turned off at dusk.

But, what is a switch? She doesn’t know and has never seen it.

Wait, it seems that grandpa told her that the switch has yellow lightning. A box with small icons.

She looked up at the sky and found that the red sun was almost hiding in the sea.

It was time to pull down the box called the electric switch. She followed the village party secretary again.

With the village Unlike most houses, the police station is made of bricks and has blue and white tiles on the outside.

"Today's festival may require you to stay at the bureau on duty."

The village branch said to the policeman standing guard at the door.

"Don't you have to stand guard around? Pay attention to the actions of that... village chief?"

The police officer deliberately lowered his voice in the last sentence.

"No need, the village chief suddenly enlightened."

The village party secretary said with a smile

"You will be on duty for another day today, and you will all have rest tomorrow."

After that, the village party secretary left.

She wanted to follow him again, but suddenly stumbled.

"Sorry, didn't notice you."

It was an uncle. He smiled a little apologetically.

She didn't bother to respond and hurriedly put her head out to look for the village party secretary.

She couldn't find it. She couldn't see the shadow of the village party secretary!

She was a little anxious and lost. The uncle ran towards the direction where the village party secretary left.

No, no, still no! Where did he go? Why did he disappear like a bubble after a while.

Oh, by the way, the electric switch! Go and pull the electric switch first! With this thought in mind, she ran back to the police station

"Is there a problem?"

The police officer on guard asked her.

She didn't reply, she just kept running inside.

"Eh! Stop it! What are you going to do?"

The police hurriedly ran out of the police box and chased her.

She was very flexible. This was the only thing that made her proud. She quickly opened the door, ran into the house, and climbed out of the window.

The police were still looking for her in the house. , she could hear the police shouting.

But time was running out. She followed the wires extending from the house and felt toward the end.

Found it, this is it!

Looking at the small iron box mounted on the wall in front of her , she was ecstatic.

When she opened the lid, she was a little confused by the complicated content inside, and she didn't dare to touch it.

Just when she was at a loss what to do, the sky gradually darkened, which made her even more anxious.

There is water! , it’s water! Seawater can contain everything, and it can also destroy everything!

She took out the small water cup she carried with her, unscrewed the lid, and poured the dark seawater inside into the electric switch.

After a burst of lightning, the entire police station was shrouded in In the darkness, panicked voices also sounded.

She giggled, ran out of the police station as fast as she could, and then locked the door of the police station from the outside.

Okay, it's done, she can't find it. Village Party Secretary, there shouldn't be anything left to do, right?

She seemed to be asking herself, looking longingly at the lively market.

"Go check it out, that girl, I want to be friends with her."

She was very excited and ran towards the market.

It was strange that she could not find the girl in the huge market. People should like the excitement.

She doubtfully looked for those sparsely populated corners.

When she saw that It’s a girl! She was sitting on a chair and smiling at a luminous board.

So beautiful. The way the girl smiled was so beautiful!

She leaned to the side and looked at the girl dreamily.

The girl seemed to have noticed her and looked at her. She waved warmly

"Are you calling me?"

She couldn't believe it and ran to the girl happily.

She cameStanding in front of the girl, looking intently at the girl’s beautiful eyes

"Want to eat?"

The girl raised the fish in her hand and looked at herself with a smile.

"Uh-huh!"

She nodded and put the fish meat into her mouth with her hands.

"So delicious, the fish is delicious! She is a good person, we cannot let her be implicated!"

Before she finished chewing the fish in her mouth, she rushed to say to the girl.:

"You are a good person, please go to the square, they are having a dinner"

"Dinner? Is this the beginning? This is for you to eat. I'm leaving first."

The girl gave her the shell in her hand and left in a hurry.

"What a nice guy. Any place with lights is safe."

She was holding the shells and eating the fish with relish.

Suddenly a strong wind blew on the sea. The sacrifice must have started, and she had to rush over.

By the way, the lights! Don't forget the lights.

She raised her hand and put the colorful decorations on it. She pulled the lightbulb down and put it in her arms, then ran towards the sea cliff with the shell.

On the sea cliff, the salty sea breeze blew over her face. The village chief's grandfather and the village party secretary were standing there.

She sat down on a stone. , watching every move of the village chief grandpa and the village party secretary

"I didn’t expect you to be reasonable. Don’t worry, we will work together to make the village rich."

The village party secretary patted the village chief's grandfather on the shoulder.

"I've figured it out, why don't you tell me the words for this sacrifice?"

The village chief grandpa smiled kindly.

"Okay, let’s keep a souvenir."

The happy village party secretary agreed without thinking.

"Take this."

The village chief's grandpa handed a twisted wooden dagger into the hands of the village party secretary.

Hehe, that's a fake. The real sacrificial dagger is made of iron. Grandpa is lying.

"Great God of the Sea, here I offer you my delicious body and pray for…"

"I pray that you will cut the sinner into pieces!"

The village chief grandpa suddenly took out a real sacrificial dagger from his arms and plunged it into the village party secretary's back.

"ah? You..."

The village party secretary still wanted to struggle, but was kicked off the cliff by the village chief, along with the paper man.

"O great god of the sea! Here I have offered my body as a sinner, and pray for blessings upon us!"

The grandfather of the village chief knelt on the ground and worshiped towards the sea.

In an instant, the sea water started to churn, strong winds blew up on the sea surface, and huge waves a hundred meters high were set off. Countless fish jumped out of the waves.

"Thank God for this gift! Go catch fish quickly!"

The village chief hung a lantern around his waist, knelt down towards the sea again, and shouted loudly for the young adults who had already prepared to go into the sea to fish.

Following the waves came not only the delicious sea fish, but also the fish from the sea. The demons awakened in the abyss.

At this time, screams came from the police station that was plunged into darkness. Their throats were cut with sharp blades made of coral, and blood spattered on the glass.

"Hee hee, I have a light, I will watch them."

She smiled and took out the light bulb that she had kept in her arms.

"Huh? Why doesn't it light up? Come on!"

She slapped the dim light bulb.

Moist and webbed hands pressed her shoulders, and the next second, sharp coral pierced her chest.

She fell to the ground, listening to the low roar like foam above her head..Those guys were still stabbing her. Many holes were stabbed on her thin back, and the shells fell to the side.

"Be sure not to step out of the light, that sister."

She took one last look at the shell and closed her eyes peacefully.
