Chapter 361: The Hidden Dragon is in the Abyss
Mi Li'er nodded and said, "I know this matter is a bit fantastical, but I still want to try it." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Although Brother Feng was smart, he didn't understand what Mi Li'er meant, so he asked with a confused face: "What's the use of investigating the population?" ”
Chang Sheng said with a smile: "This survey of the population is very useful." ”
"It's still like this after knowing how many people there are!" Brother Tiger scratched his head, unable to figure it out, "Those who hide in the shadows are very dangerous. ”
"After the census of the population, we know where everyone is, what is the situation, who can do what, and who needs our help." Mi Li'er explained.
Brother Feng still couldn't understand: "Why should we help them?" What does it have to do with us that they don't have enough to eat? ”
"They have something to do with us." Cheng Ping, who had been silent, spoke, "We don't have relatives, they are our relatives." ”
"Loved ones?" Brother Feng sneered, "They didn't help us, if we weren't capable, we would have starved to death." ”
Mi Li'er knew that Brother Feng's concept would not change for a while, and it seemed that she could only persuade Brother Feng from a utilitarian point of view: "Brother Feng, we are still a little dangerous in the ghost city, as the so-called more friends are easier to walk!" ”
Hearing that it was profitable, Brother Feng and Brother Hu happily helped Mi Li'er find someone.
The census is very complicated, and it still requires a lot of preparation to operate it.
Granny Zhu and Gong Zhu didn't understand Mi Li'er's approach.
Granny Zhu asked Mi Li'er: "We are just staying here temporarily, why do we want to help these people in the ghost town?" ”
The people in the ghost town, all cold and ruthless, do not deserve sympathy at all.
They couldn't figure out why Mi Li'er was helping these people who had nothing to do with it.
Mi Li'er said bitterly: "I just sympathize with them, do you believe it or not, mother-in-law?" ”
Granny Zhu smiled: "I don't believe it. ”
Although she knew that Mi Li'er was kind, she would never believe that Mi Li'er would be so kind.
Mi Li'er: "......What's wrong with the world, no one believes in her doing good deeds."
Mu Fanchen wanted to explain for Mi Li'er, but was stopped by Mi Li'er with his eyes.
"I think there are a lot of people in the ghost town, and they all have some skills, maybe they can help us in the future." Mi Li'er changed her rhetoric and said.
Granny Zhu suddenly realized: "I'll just say, it's not profitable to be early, how can you be so enthusiastic." But the people in the ghost town can't get out of here at all, so how can they help? ”
Mi Li'er smiled: "Be prepared, who knows when you will need manpower?" ”
Granny Zhu thought deeply and said, "It's still Mi Li'er who thinks too much." ”
Mi Li'er and Mu Fanchen returned to the house, very frustrated.
"Childe, am I giving a bad impression?" Mi Li'er asked Mu Fanchen depressedly. She just wants to help people, but no one believes her. The more you explain, the more you feel that you have ill intentions, and you have to come up with something profitable and take advantage of others.
Mu Fanchen sat next to Mi Li'er and comforted Mi Li'er: "I just know that you are a good person, they don't know you." ”
"I obviously built a welfare home in Lindong County, why do they still think that I am a mercenary person." Mi Li'er leaned her head on Mu Fanchen's shoulder and said helplessly.
"Because in the eyes of Granny Zhu, you built a welfare home just for me to be able to live peacefully with the demons in Lindong County." Mu Fanchen explained, "Besides, there are too few simple good people in this world. ”
Mi Li'er sighed, for the first time, she felt that it was difficult to be a good person.
But when she thinks about it, it seems that she really hasn't done a few good things.
"Okay you." Mu Fanchen touched Mi Li'er's head and said speechlessly, "You can do whatever you want, and you don't care about other people's opinions at all." I've always been there for you. ”
Mi Li'er also feels that she is a little hypocritical, she can do whatever she wants, and she cares what others do?
What if even if the people she wants to help can't give her anything back?
Does everything require a different result?
The next day, the white-haired old man came to dinner, and when he heard that Mi Li'er was going to count the population in the ghost town, he praised Mi Li'er again and again: "Miss Mi is a kind-hearted girl." ”
Mi Li'er was surprised: "What do you mean by that, uncle?" ”
"You're trying to help them, aren't you?" The white-haired old man sighed and said, "It's just that most of the people in the ghost town are stubborn, and there are too many people who need help, what are you going to do, Miss Mi?" ”
Mi Li'er put her hands on her cheeks and said softly: "Actually, I don't have a clue, I don't know how much I can do for them, anyway, how much I can do." ”
Looking at the people coming and going in the restaurant, Mi Li'er sighed: "I have a lot of troubles, and I still want to help others, uncle, do you think I'm whimsical?" ”
"It's not." The white-haired old man shook his head seriously and said, "From a new city to a ghost town, for so many years, there has only been one person as whimsical as you. If it were a person like Duojie, maybe the ghost town would not be like this for a long time. ”
The white-haired old man waved his hand and said, "Miss Mi, I believe that you will definitely be able to benefit everyone in the ghost town." ”
After eating the last bite of food, the old man said: "I didn't finish the story that day, so I'll tell you all today." ”
"Where did I go that day?" The old man asked Mi Li'er.
Mi Li'er didn't think about it and said: "You said that the big demon died, and the new city gradually became a ghost town. ”
"Then guess why people who enter a ghost town can't get out?" I always ask rice grains.
Mi Li'er thought for a while and said, "It's because of the fish in the river, right?" ”
The old man nodded and shook his head, "Not only because of the fish in the river, but also because of the water." ”
"According to your story, drinking water used to be fine, but why did it suddenly become like this?" Mi Li'er suddenly discovers a loophole in the story.
If the white-haired old man knew the key, would she be able to help the people in the ghost town?
The white-haired old man sighed and said, "I don't know why for this, if someone in the ghost town knew the reason, they would have done it a long time ago." What I know is another big secret. ”
"Oh?" Mi Li'er asked curiously, "My husband said to listen to it." ”
The white-haired old man said slowly: "In fact, since the death of the gods, most of the demons imprisoned in the ghost city have run away because no one has taken care of them, but there are also monsters who have made big mistakes or are not well cared for, and they are imprisoned in the next place, if the people outside don't let him out, he will have to stay there forever." ”
"And such a thing?" Mi Li'er put herself in her shoes, and shuddered, that god has been dead for so long, and the monster who made a mistake has been locked up for so long, isn't this suffocating to death? This punishment is too torturous.
"Alas," Mi Li'er sighed, "whatever that monster is, after all these years, he's dead." ”
"There's a good chance he's still alive." The white-haired old man looked at Mi Li'er and said seriously, "Because that monster in the Heavenly God Pass is not an ordinary monster. He's a dragon. ”
"Dragons?" Mi Li'er almost jumped up, "Why did that god lock up a dragon?" Did he do something heinous? ”
"It's not a heinous thing, is it?" The old man hesitated, "It's just that he is playful and likes to travel clouds and rain, which caused a flood." ”
"Is this still a small matter?" Mi Li'er said speechlessly, "How many people have drowned in a flood!" ”
"Because of the help of the gods, no one died. But that day the gods wanted to punish the dragon, so they took him into a ghost town, no, a new city at that time. The old man sighed, "But not many years after the dragon was captured, the god died." ”
"If the gods are dead, won't the dragon be able to escape?" Mi Li'er was curious, "Could it be that the gods used some special methods to imprison the dragon in order to trap him?" ”
"Miss Mi is smart." The white-haired old man took a sip of tea and said with some sadness, "The gods have locked the dragon in the Heiping River, and they have made a seal with their own blood, and no one can release the dragon except the gods." ”
Mi Li'er looked at the old man carefully, and wondered, "How can you know so much?" What is your relationship with that dragon? ”
The old man smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Mi is really smart. When I told you this story, I wanted to reveal my identity. I am the slave of that dragon. Ever since the master was caught, I have followed him into a ghost town. I originally just wanted to wait for him to be released after completing his sentence, but I didn't expect that the god died, and I was trapped here, unable to save my master, and I couldn't leave here. ”
After the white-haired old man said this, he was moved by himself. He must be the most faithful servant in the world. He waited for Mi Li'er to be touched by a mess.
"You've lived so long?" Mi Li'er was surprised.
The old man was speechless, how could this girl's focus be different from others?
He took such a big risk and told Mi Li'er his biggest secret.
"With such a harsh environment as a ghost town, there is simply no monster that can live so long." Mi Li'er asked Mu Fanchen, "Childe, are you right?" ”
Mu Fanchen nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"I can live for so long, so naturally I have my own magic weapon." The white-haired old man was embarrassed and said, "It's just that I can't say it now." ”
"Well, I'll take you for granted." Mi Li'er said, "When was the last time you went to see your master, that is, the dragon?" ”
Mi Li'er never believed that this trembling old man could enter such a dangerous place as Heiping River to see his master.
"I haven't been there in hundreds of years." The white-haired old man sighed and said, "Even if I have a magic weapon to protect my body, but now my cultivation is almost exhausted, and I can't enter the bottom of the Heiping River at all." ”
"Maybe he's dead." Mi Li'er said speechlessly, "You haven't been down for hundreds of years." ”
"No, it won't." The white-haired old man was very firm, "My master's cultivation is very high, and he won't die." Besides, I can live now, and he will definitely live! ”
Hearing him say this, Mi Li'er's heart was like grass growing.
She'd never seen a dragon in all this time.
Except, of course, the dragon that the big snake turned into in the rainbow, what she wants to see now is a real dragon.
"Uncle, can you tell me about the origin of that dragon?" Mi Li'er looked at the old man's eyes with admiration.
Even if this white-haired old man has no mana, he is also the longest-living monster she has ever seen, and this is enough for her to admire.
The white-haired old man sighed and said, "I only know that his name is Long Jiu. Just when I was almost killed by the other youkai, he saved me, and I followed him as a servant. ”
"I see."
In addition to the census, Mi Li'er began to work on the second thing, which was to enter the bottom of the Heiping River.
Granny Zhu said to Mu Fanchen helplessly: "Mi Li'er is busy with so many things every day, will she be tired?" ”
Mu Fanchen didn't know that Granny Zhu's current state was the norm for her mother-in-law to look down on her daughter-in-law's practices.
He said softly: "Mi Li'er can do whatever he wants, otherwise he will be stuffy if he stays here." ”
Granny Zhu glanced at Mu Fanchen and said, "You can get used to your daughter-in-law!" Let's see what you will do if you can't lower her in the future. ”
"What are you doing with her?" Mu Fanchen looked at Zhu Gongdao, who was standing beside Granny Zhu, "Could it be that Gong Zhu stopped you?" ”
Zhu Gong waved his hand again and again: "Our family has always had the final say to your mother-in-law." ”
Mu Fanchen smiled and turned to leave.
Granny Zhu slapped Zhu Gong, and Zhu Gong smiled and went back to the kitchen.
It is very difficult to conduct a census of the ghost town, but it is even more difficult to get to the bottom of the Heiping River.
Thankfully, I have a little clue about doing both of these things.
When surveying the population of a ghost town, investigate which youkai are able to enter the water.
It's best to be like Cheng Ping, who is not afraid of those strange fish water demons at all.
Jiu Chang stopped Qingzhi and asked, "You really don't know where Madame went?" ”
"I really don't know." Qingzhi reached out to push Jiu Chang, thinking of Jiu Chang's horror, she retracted her hand stiffly, "Madame's whereabouts are uncertain, why do you want to tell me." ”
"Doesn't Madame treat you as a relative?" Jiu Chang didn't believe it, "How could she not tell you where she went." ”
"Doesn't she think of you as the closest person? How could it not tell you? Jiu Chang sneered, "You follow her every day, even if she doesn't say it, you should know!" ”
"You, me and Chen Mei are an alliance," Jiuchang attached to Qingzhi's ear and said, "It's not right that you don't help me." ”
Qingzhi dodged away in disgust and turned away.
Jiuchang's eyes darkened, but he couldn't attack.
Ever since he knew that Mi Li'er had entered the ghost town, his mood had been fluctuating.
Sometimes I don't want to go to her anymore when I think that Mi Li'er can't leave the ghost town in the future, and she is no different from a dead person.
But when he thought that he would be alone in the future, Jiuchang wanted to go and turn over the ghost town and find out the rice grains. But what can be done by finding out?
He can't stay in the ghost town, and Mi Li'er can't come out of the ghost town.
