Chapter 730

Fabricott calmed himself a little. Although his poor sense and common sense had been destroyed when he stood at the window and saw the monsters, his spirit was not in disorder.

It is because of this that we can describe to Zhang Heng what he saw and heard on this day.

According to the young foreign traveler, he originally wanted to transfer here and take the 8:00 p.m. bus to Arkham, because this route is usually empty and the ticket price is very cheap, which is very attractive for the poor party like him. Of course, another reason is that he is also very curious about this place.

Because in Newbury port, people have heard a lot of legends about this place, such as the disgusting ugly appearance of the people in the town, the gloomy and depressing atmosphere, and the frequent disappearances, all of which are very attractive to young people.

Especially when fabricott saw the golden crown in the museum, he was deeply fascinated by the strange and unimaginable evil it exuded.

"Is the golden crown made of this material?" Zhang Heng took out the necklace from his bag.

"Yes, that's right." Fabricott almost immediately cried out when he saw the necklace. Then he shivered and wanted to look away. However, the necklace seemed to contain some magic, which was full of evil and fascinating.

Fortunately, Zhang Heng didn't take out the necklace for a long time. He just shook it in front of the young traveler's face and put it away again.

Fabricott breathed a sigh of relief. "In a word, I got here by the 10 o'clock bus the next morning. Although I had done a lot of research and had some psychological preparation before I came here, I have to admit that the strange and dead atmosphere here is beyond my imagination. I mean, can you believe it, it was full of people before 1846 It is said that a great plague has killed more than half of the people in the town. Combined with the strange looks of the people in the town, if it is the influence of an unknown disease, it seems that it can be said that... "

Fabricott said, "anyway, I've got on the bus and got here. If I want to leave, I have to take the bus in the evening, so I decided to spend the middle of the time in the town to satisfy my curiosity and see if I can hear more stories about it But as you can see, the people here are not very friendly to outsiders. No one wants to talk to me. In fact, I don't want to communicate with them very much. I'm not comfortable with their strange looks and their smelly smell. Fortunately, I found a clerk in the grocery store. He is not a local, but he was transferred here by the headquarters.

"He told me some things to pay attention to, such as not going out in the middle of the night, staying away from the church. The Freemasons who used to be here have now been replaced by another mysterious order. Their priests seem to be thinking about some strange ceremony. The people in the town like water very much. They will swim from time to time. You don't want to know their posture in the water, By the way, there are four most famous families in this small town, the marsh family, the Witt family, the Gilman family and the Elliot family, who run the refinery, but few people see them go out.

"At last, the little brother in the grocery store, when he heard that I wanted to get more anecdotes, recommended an old man named Zadok Allen. He was a poor old drunkard living alone. He was in his nineties. He was strict and neurotic at ordinary times, but as soon as he got drunk, he would start to talk nonsense. It is said that many of the legends here originated from him It's coming out of your mouth. "

"Did you find him?" Zhang Heng asked.

"Yes, it took me a lot of time, and I had to try to get away from other people, because the little brother at the grocery store told me that it was better not to be seen by the people in the town when I met Zadok Allen. I used a bottle of wine to lead him to the ruins, where we got a valuable one-on-one communication opportunity," fabricott said with a look on his face But now I hope I never heard those horrible stories from him

"What story?"

"Everything started on a small island in the South Pacific. At that time, bad things came together. A good fisherman was killed by a privateer in the war of 1812. Three Gilman ships were missing. Only the marsh family ships were still at sea, but they were not so good. They could not catch any fish. The captain of one of the ships was Aube De, I heard that the aborigines on the island are wearing gold ornaments, and there are endless fish there. "

"So Captain Obeid took people to find the island. At first, he just tried to exchange some gold jewelry with the aborigines on the island. But later, Obeid found out the source of the gold from the chief. The chief told him that the people on the island would hold rituals from time to time and trade with the young people in the tribe, and the gold and fish were the same The feedback that those things give them.

"What's more, those things will go a step further, persuading people on the island to reproduce with them. The children they give birth to are human at first, but as they grow up, they will become more and more like those things, and eventually live underwater forever.""You mean those things that are half human, half fish and half frog?" Zhang Heng frowned.

"Yes, it is these things that do business with that tribe, but not all children will become like that, and the time of change is also different. Some people are born like this, and some people can maintain the appearance of human beings until they are 70 or 80 years old, or they can never complete the final change."

"Oh." Zhang Heng was noncommittal.

"In a word, Captain Obeid found out what happened on the island, and also brought back a gift from the chief, a piece of lead or something, as well as the corresponding ceremony. According to the chief, he found a place where there were fish and dropped the piece of lead. With the ceremony, he could find those things that lived underwater.

"Captain Obeid didn't use it at first. He just put it aside and continued to trade with the tribes on the island in exchange for gold like things in their hands. He opened a refinery in the town, secretly processed those things and made a lot of money. But in 1938, when Obeid took people to the island again, he found that the tribe was missing and they were killed by other islands The people on the island have been wiped out, and there are mysterious amulets all over the island, which is very bad news for captain Obeid.
