Chapter 69: The Mission Begins (Part I)
After discussing with Shiranui Dance, Tian Zhongqiu rushed to the north with Shiranui in the afternoon of the next day. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Takayama Town is already the northern area here, and further north it is a sparsely populated area, and the village that Tanakata and Shiranui Mai are going to this time is in the other direction of Daisetsukiya, although it doesn't look far on the map, but it still takes a lot of effort to walk, and few people there can get here.
Fortunately, there was a car that did not know the fire dance, and fortunately there was a road that could get there, although it was not a flat road, nor was it a straight line, but after the two of them sat in the car for an afternoon, they still went around the mountain town on this side of the mountain to the village on the other side in the evening.
This place has the feel of a border town, from the appearance of an ancient village, and the urban atmosphere of the mountain town is simply a sky, an underground.
The arrival of the two made the people here very restrained, especially the appearance of the car made the children and people here very curious, but they were also afraid to approach Tian Zhongqiu and Shiranui Dance.
"Let's go find the village chief here." I didn't know that Huo Wu didn't get out of the car immediately, and after parking the car to the side, he confessed to Tian Chuqiu.
Tian Zhongqiu nodded and asked, "Is there no problem with the car here?" ”
Tian Zhongqiu was not worried about the car being stolen, but worried about some unnecessary things, the car did not have a cover, and the people in the village were obviously very curious about the car, and it was inevitable that some people would come over and touch the car under the curiosity of the time.
After this kind of thing happened, Tian Zhongqiu didn't know how to solve it, but if he left it alone, he didn't know that Huo Wu should be unacceptable.
"I'll deal with it later, as long as you don't behave so politely, so that those people will be afraid of us and won't risk being punished to satisfy their curiosity, and the rest will stop them even if they don't get involved, so all you have to do is not give them the idea of a fluke. We'll leave after we're done, and we won't have anything to do with the people here, but if you're not feeling good, you can stay in the car and take care of it, and I'll go to the village to find out. "It's not the first time I've done this kind of thing, and I know exactly what to do.
Tian Zhongqiu thought about it, but he still didn't stay in the car by himself, and let Shiranui go to the village where he didn't know the roots.
"I actually have another ability, but it's not very useful." Tian Zhongqiu looked at Shiranui Dance and said, "When I was with Yingu, I once got a worm, which is a worm that can control animals and bind enemies, and ordinary people can't see it, it's called [Pseudo Ge]. Now I'll let the pseudo-Ge take care of it here, and let's go to the village to investigate. ”
"Pseudo-kudzu?" I didn't know that Huo Wu looked at the thing that came out of Tian Zhongqiu's body, I hadn't heard of the existence of this creature before, but [Worm] was strange, and the worm I didn't know was the real worm, "What do you usually do with this kind of pseudo-kudzu?" ”
Shiranui Wu wants to know the role of Tian Zhongqiu's pseudo-kudzu, so that there are more options when he waits for the battle.
"Usually I use it to hunt, and I remember telling you before, I can't see those weird existences, and through the pseudo-kudzu, I can use the perception of pseudo-kudzu to perceive some strange existences around me, but the eyes of the insect are different from ours, I can't tell, in short, I don't rely on the line of sight to perceive." Tian Zhongqiu has very little understanding of the pseudo-kudzu, and the role that has been known is only a small part, and the pseudo-kudzu has many roles that need to be discovered and studied by Tian Zhongqiu.
"Magical insect ......" Shiranui Wu nodded and said his own thoughts, but in fact, Shiranui Mai wanted to say that the magical Tian Zhongqiu.
After the two of them solved the car problem, they were ready to enter the village to have a look, and at this time, the village steward had already rushed out under the notice of the rest of the people.
This is an old man of some age, and after walking over with a cane and being supported by others, he said to Tian Zhongqiu: "Excuse me, are the two adults from Gaoshan Town?" ”
"Yes, I'm the martial artist in charge of your side this time, now you tell me the details of the matter, and then I'll go look for that youkai." Shiranui Wu didn't let Tian Zhongqiu speak, and the two will definitely continue to cooperate in the future, so Shiranui Dance also wants to let Tian Zhongqiu know how he does the task, so that it will also facilitate future cooperation, "By the way, are you ready for the reward?" ”
The old man nodded, took out a small bag from his arms, and slowly handed it out, "My lord, this is the reward prepared by the people in our village, please be sure to help us drive that monster away, the people in our village don't dare to go out these days, this will definitely affect the food this winter."
Shiranui took the small bag, and after loosening the strap at the mouth of the bag, he saw the silver-white metal particles inside, nodded and said: "The reward is right, my partner and I will destroy the monster as soon as possible, and you don't let people get close to my car, I have already placed my Shikigami there, and ordinary people will be attacked by ghosts if they rush close." ”
"Yes! Be! I'm going to let people watch, and never let the rest of the people get near your car, adult. "The old man knew that it was a car, and he also believed that there was something eating people near the car.
The people in the village were in awe of Tian Zhongqiu and Shiranui Wu, and Tian Chuqiu followed Shiranui into the nearby mountain road without saying a word.
After entering the mountains and forests, Shiranui turned to Tian Zhongqiu and said, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
"No, there's nothing special about it, it's just weird, I originally thought we were paid to finish our work, and what's in that bag?" Tian Zhongqiu didn't have any special feelings, just curious about the rewards that the villagers took out.
Shiranui originally thought that Tian Zhongqiu would have an opinion on his attitude when he did the task, after all, in Shiranui Wu's opinion, Tian Zhongqiu was a very easy-going person, whether it was treating ordinary people or guardians equally, so he was also worried that Tian Zhongqiu would have opinions, but he didn't expect Tian Zhongqiu to be just curious about the reward.
"It's an ore, a specialty of the village, but it's very rare, and I didn't expect them to use it as a reward. In terms of value, it has exceeded the promised reward many times, but for the people here, this ore is only a small amount, far less valuable than food and some basic supplies, so there is no such thing as anyone taking advantage of whom. ”
Shiranui explained the matter of the payment, then looked at Tian Zhongqiu and said, "I thought you would be dissatisfied with my attitude just now." ”
"No, just like you have to wear different clothes at work and when you're at home, there are some things that have to be done with the right attitude. I don't want to take advantage of the villagers, but I don't want to be annoyed by them, it would be unpleasant. So it's not bad for anyone to do it now, and we can work together in the future, and we can take what we need, and what I think is what should be done, and I will do the same. Tian Zhongqiu sighed and said to Shiranui Wu: "Don't think too highly of me, I'm also an egoist, not the kind of person who thinks about others wholeheartedly, and harms my own interests, I won't do it, I also want to eat, right?" ”
"You're such a nice guy." I don't know how to say solemnly.
