【Chapter 297】 I omitted a little bit......
"Oops!" Iluri's face changed instantly, what else could it be on her tongue, and she suddenly thought of the strange stone pillar, there were traces of Joel scraping with a branch, and the strange sound in the stone pillar, which meant that he must have put his face on the stone pillar.
"I know what the hell that is. ”
The ruthless Iruli had already dealt with the male slaves on the spot, and by the way, she dug out the strange worms in their mouths with a knife, and the strange worms that broke away from the host did not survive for long, and became shriveled skins.
"That's it, this strange worm. Iluri pointed to the crumpled gray-black dead skin wrapped in leaves on the table, and the rings could still be seen, as well as the numbing head of the worm with fangs and mouthparts.
Looking at the ugly insect corpse, thinking that this thing would be parasitic on the tongue, the female elves present, including Eslena, felt goosebumps all over their bodies.
"Rena, do we need to discuss anything else?" Iluri glared, "Poor little Joel has already been tricked, you know, if we don't do something, maybe all the family members, tongues will become this kind of thing, at the mercy of sea monsters." ”
Esrena took a deep breath and nodded, "Iluri, I agree with you. Little Joel is Aunt Marne's only son, and we must save him. ”
"Then you still need to say it?" Iruli rolled her eyes, "What are you still doing?" ”
As for Iluri's stinky temper, even as the leader, Eslena was helpless, so she could only hurriedly follow Iluri to check on little Joel's situation.
The poor baby who was always bullied by Eruli, thin and weak little Joel, with brown hair like a chicken nest, kept biting the tip of his tongue while touching his tears.
His mother, Aunt Marn, was about to cry, and when she saw Eslena coming, she hurriedly grabbed little Joel's arm to meet her: "Rena, Rena, you must help us, help us." ”
"Aunt Marne, don't ...... you first"
Eslena was about to say a few words of comfort when Iluri slapped little Joel on the back of the head and asked, "You little villain! Isn't that weird this time? Satisfied?"
Little Joel, who was already aggrieved, cried out with a wow.
"Hold it off!" Iluri pinched his cheek brutally, stopping his crying, "If you don't want to die, stick your tongue out." ”
Under her obscenity, little Joel held back his crying and barely stuck out his tongue.
"Oh my God...... It's disgusting!" Little Joel's tongue turned into a thick layer of gray-green, like green hairs that grew from damp and moldy food.
Eslena also bent down and looked at his tongue, "Iluri, be careful, he's already having a hard time." This tongue - little Joel, how do you feel?"
"Itchy, very itchy. Little Joel burst into tears: "It's like a little bug biting my tongue, and there are so many bugs, more than a nest of ants." ”
"Except for the itch, does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt, it's just very itchy, scrape your tongue with your teeth, and the more you scratch, the more itchy. Little Joel didn't realize what was wrong with him, and thought it was a sick tongue: "Rena, I'm sick, help me, help me." ”
"Looks like I've had to cut my tongue out......" said Iluri meaningfully.
Little Joel was full of excitement, and immediately retracted his tongue, unable to control the fear in his heart, and threw himself on Aunt Marne's lap, and cried: "Mother, I don't want to cut my tongue. I don't want to cut my tongue. ”
"Iluri!" Esreina was a little angry, "He's just a child, don't scare him." ”
"Rena, you think I'm scaring him?" "Eluri strained her neck, unafraid, "Have you ever seen that thing in your mouth? Do you know how terrifying it is?"
"You come over to me. Eslena grabbed her wrist and pulled her aside, lowering her voice, "I know you're right. But panic doesn't solve the problem, it only adds trouble. You know? Aunt Marn, Joel, they don't know what's going on yet. ”
"Yes, I see what you mean. Iluri's mood softened slightly: "But lies don't solve the problem either." Rena, be sober, it's not a disease, it's a curse. The curse of the sea monster, you know, if we let it go, little Joel will run like those guys and lick the pillars...... Wait, I really figured out what, it could be that licking the stone pillar can eliminate the itch of the tongue, so those guys ran over to lick it. ”
"Whether it's a curse or a sickness, it's a nuisance. Esrena's slender sideburns were furrowed, and her elven graceful face was full of worry, this was a pirate's lair, no one could heal the sick, and there were no ordination clergy.
"It's better to lose your tongue than to lose your life. Iluri sighed softly, although she always bullied little Joel, but that was just her way of expressing closeness, the more people she cared about, the more her temper stinked, like Rena......
Eslena fell silent, she didn't understand that Iluri's decision was the most feasible at the moment. However, when I looked at the thin and poor little boy, my heart was full of unbearable.
Cutting out the tongue is risky, and they know very well that if they don't cut it well, they will lose too much blood and lose their lives.
"Rena, I know you're struggling. Iluli gritted her teeth: "Leave it to me, anyway, I'm a wicked person in everyone's eyes." Even if little Joel hates me for the rest of my life, I can't watch him turn into a monster. ”
Eslena looked at Iluri in surprise, her heart was very moved, although Iluri had a bad temper and a poisonous mouth, but this would rather let others hate her for the rest of her life, but also save others' determination, which is very human.
After being silent for a long time, Eslena shook her head out of caution and unbearability, and said, "Iluri, this kind of notoriety can't be borne by yourself. I think maybe we still have some time. The stone pillar is the key, and, as you say, the tentacles that saved you......"
Iluri slammed her head, "yes, that tentacle saved me and helped me fight off the sea monster." It's just that I don't know where it came from, and he disappeared quickly without a trace. ”
"So, now back to our discussion, Eluri, I hope you can describe the process in 1510. ”
"Uh......" Eluri's cheeks turned red when she had never known what 'shy' was, and she did describe the rescue of the tentacles to her sisters, but the shameful process was indescribable.
"What's wrong?" Eslena keenly sensed this, and asked, "Eluri, do you have anything else to discover, or something you haven't told us?" ”
"Ah...... Haha, no, how could it be. Iluri's gaze began to dodge: "That's what I said, it restrained the sea monster for me, and then I killed the sea monster with my superb sword skills." ”
"Iluri......" How could Eslena not see it, grabbed her shoulders, ice blue eyes, and stared at her: "We are sisters, right?
"Yes, yes. It is...... It's ......" Iluri's cheeks began to burn, "Rena, I did omit a little, only a little. ”
"Well, I believe in you, I believe in sisters. Eslena gave her a meaningful look, "I'll go and comfort Aunt Marne and little Joel first." You should remember it carefully, and the sisters will come later and listen to you describe the little thing that has been overlooked, shall you?"
"I'll give it a try. Iluri snorted, "You know, I'm not very good at my brain. Maybe you'll forget a little bit. ”
"Eluri, don't let me down, think of little Joel's tongue. ”
