Chapter 12: The Patriarch
Although Mo Tear had already made up his mind to say goodbye tomorrow, he still didn't know if the eccentric patriarch would let them go, or if something worse would happen.
So he'd like to go and find out tonight. It's best to find a way out. I can't find it, and I can only look at the mood of the strange patriarch.
Mo Tear and Lin Xiaomu glanced at each other. They all understand each other's intentions, these days, Mo Tear goes out at night, and when he comes back, he is not afraid of the sky, but now he is not afraid of the sky, but now he cares about his hands and tails, and he does not dare to make a mistake, and being too careful will inevitably lead to nervousness, and being nervous for a long time will inevitably produce fatigue, for this Lin Xiaomu is a little heartbroken, and feels a little happy.
Indeed, she really deserves to be happy. All these changes are for her safety.
......
Mo Tear just walked out of the big tent without two steps, thinking that this ghost place is really ghostly, the white smoke has never dispersed, there are strong men patrolling everywhere, and they can't even figure out the road ahead. How to escape?
What's more, these days the dragon is fooling him vigorously, there are fierce beasts all around, there are demons and monsters everywhere, it is still a good thing to eat people without spitting out bones, life is better than death is sad, which makes Mo Tear believe it to be true, creepy, and dare not act rashly.
I have to say that Long Yi, a curvaceous girl, is too clever, he saw through Mo Tear's intentions from the first conversation, and in the next few conversations, when Mo Tear was still stupidly trying to talk a few times, Long Yi pretended to instill in him how dangerous it was around here, and the image was vivid, and it was difficult for people not to believe it, not to mention that Mo Tear had seen a lot of strange things, so he naturally believed her nonsense, and the monster with a mouth full of fangs and a big blue face kept floating in Mo Tear's mind.
Thinking about it, he suddenly collided with something, took two steps back, and looked up, and the kind face of the patriarch met him.
Although the patriarch looked kind at this time, it could be seen in Mo Tears. It's no different from a monster with a green face and fangs. Taking a step back, one step further, and keeping a relative distance can also make him feel a little safe.
He smiled reluctantly, thinking that he had fallen home unlucky, and it would be difficult to get rid of the ghost when he went out.
He saluted slightly, his smile was dry, and his vocal cords trembled slightly, "Clan, patriarch." ”
The patriarch smiled kindly and whispered, "What are you doing here?"
Mo Tear frowned, pursed his lips, and said falsely: "The night is so good tonight, so come out and have a look." ”
The patriarch raised his head, shook his head to look at the dark night sky, and asked softly, "Yes, what can you see?"
Mo Tear timidly raised his head, the wide sky was darker than his eyes, and unconsciously, three more wrinkles appeared on his brows, Heaven!
Mo Tear thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say so, he touched his chin, and pretended to be profound: "I saw something you can't see." It's beautiful!"
Mo Tear himself felt that it would be better if he had a beard, and it would be more similar to pretending to be profound, and as for what he said, he felt that it was really fucking bullshit.
The patriarch smiled again, and said seriously, "Then what did you see? and I didn't see it, tell me about it, the old man." ”
When the words fell, Mo Tear wanted to die, Ancestor, is it so difficult for me to find an excuse casually? I can't tell you that I'm here to find a way out, can you let me go? Please let me go, Mo Tear prayed loudly in his heart.
He coughed twice, pointed to the sky casually, looked old-fashioned, and said, "I see this sky." ”
He paused, looked at the patriarch with a face full of expectations, and coughed twice again with confidence that came at some point.
"What's wrong with the sky?"
The patriarch held his hands and looked up at the direction of Ink Tears' fingers, although his back was bent and his body was thin, he was still about the same height as Ink Tears, which showed how powerful and majestic he was when he was young.
"This sky, I'm afraid, I'm afraid...... Rain tomorrow. ”
Mo held back his tears for a long time before he came up with this statement, and he really wanted to die.
But the patriarch slowly lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Really?"
Ink Tears was speechless for a moment, is it so easy to deceive?
Mo Tear still pretended to be profound, and said calmly, "True and false, true and false, true and false, who can tell clearly?"
The patriarch was silent, probably he had been thousands of years, and he had never heard such profound words, which made it difficult for him to understand, and it was complete nonsense for Mo Tear.
If you want to fool someone, just say something he doesn't seem to understand, just do it!
The patriarch sighed in his heart at this moment, he was worthy of being the person chosen by the gods, and his words were so unfathomable, he must have extraordinary achievements in the future.
The patriarch sighed again. A look of self-shame.
Ink tears snickered in his heart, is it so easy to deceive? Maybe he can still get words out of his mouth.
"What are you doing in this world?" the patriarch asked solemnly, with a sudden change in his face.
Mo Tear immediately became serious and nervous, and replied sincerely, "I once told my predecessors that I was here to find a way to cure the disease and save people. Believe it or not, you can rest assured that we have no ill will towards you. ”
The patriarch smiled and nodded, flowing wrinkles covered his forehead, and his dry skin was inlaid with a few black spots, which did look a little scary in this dim environment.
"Is that person important to you?" the patriarch's voice did not have a trace of twists and turns, and he could not hear joy or anger.
"Very important. Mo Tear nodded affirmatively in reply.
"Good. The patriarch suddenly laughed out loud, "I know of a place where there may be a way to cure your friend." ”
"Where?" Mo Tear asked quickly, and at the moment he was completely afraid.
"Tomorrow, I will let Long Xun and Long Long accompany you, that place, only people of our dragon bloodline can open it. The patriarch said indifferently, and his withered palm patted him on the shoulder.
"Why are you helping me? What are the conditions? Mo Tear asked, he knew that they were all in a crisis, how could they help him for no reason?
The patriarch squinted his eyes, laughed continuously, and said gently, "There are no conditions, you don't think too much." ”
Mo was stunned for a long time, and when he looked up again, the figure of the patriarch had blended with the night and slowly disappeared in front of his eyes.
This is a great thing, but he doesn't know why he can't be happy at the moment, he always feels that the patriarch has a deep sadness in his heart.
He turned around timidly, looked back suddenly, looked at the place where the patriarch disappeared, and whispered, "Thank you." ”
Tomorrow, along the way, Mo Tear thought that he would be able to leave this place tomorrow, and it was possible to find a way to cure Xiaomu, and he had an irrepressible excitement in his heart.
walked outside Gou Jian's big tent, looked at Gou Jian who was sitting on the ground and was asleep, and kicked his feet.
Gou Jian woke up suddenly, stood up instantly, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Mo Tear.
"Tomorrow, we'll get out of here. "Ink tears poke at the subject.
"Hmm. Gou Jian yawned, looking like he hadn't woken up.
"Okay, you rest, I'm leaving. ”
As soon as Mo Tear wanted to turn around and leave, Gou Jian suddenly became much more energetic, and asked in a low voice, "Can she follow us?"
Gou Jian poked behind him with his backhand, and hinted at the people in the big tent vigorously, with a hint of longing in his eyes?
"No, you can't. Mo Tear replied decisively and resolutely quickly.
"Why not?" Gou Jian just wanted to retort loudly, but said with restraint, "You also know how dangerous it is here, how can she live alone?"
Mo Tear didn't want to quarrel with him, and whispered, "If you can't do it, you can't." You think about her life and death, has she ever cared about your life and death? Not everyone can be as beautiful as you think, some people seem to be perfect, but in fact they are femme fatales. ”
"She's not that kind of person. Gou Jian resolutely retorted.
Mo Tear pointed at Gou Jian angrily, wandered back and forth a few steps to the right, and wanted to scold several times, but finally snorted and turned away angrily.
Mo burst into tears, he knew that Gou Jian would only believe what he saw in front of him, no matter how he explained it now, Gou Jian would not believe it, Gou Jian would instead think that everything he said was prejudiced against her, slandered her, and the relationship between the two of them would become worse at that time.
The sky suddenly changed dramatically, and it began to rain heavily
