23. Request (Happy Tanabata)

Liu Qingshan didn't expect that he would receive the first business with his casual words.

There is a ready-made model of conquest, and the chief of the hegemony immediately placed the first order, and then Wang Quan and Wang Tu also placed an order, and also gave a deposit in advance.

The so-called deposit is a tattered piece of iron and some cloth that can withstand high temperatures and colds, and it is said that the cloth is more like metal wire, so that everyone does not know what kind of material this silk is.

Queen Melissa maintained the demeanor of a queen.

Because his body was very tired, Liu Qingshan couldn't deliver the goods on the spot, and the three chief executives who placed the order were not broken, and agreed to delay it for a few days.

Queen Melissa clapped her hands, "Alright, let's get down to business." Since you are from outside, you should have experienced the cruel purgatory of the final sand sea, have you found anything?"

Liu Qingshan smiled bitterly, "Queen, I'm not crazy, I didn't commit suicide, I didn't become those insensible and unintelligent things, I didn't turn into sand and burned incense, and I still have the ability to discover something." ”

When I think about that time now, I still have lingering palpitations, and I may never forget this nightmare in my life.

Queen Melissa couldn't help but be a little disappointed as if she had expected it, "Yes, it's hard to get out of your sanity. ”

Liu Qingshan suddenly had a bright light flash in his mind, thinking carefully about Queen Melissa's words, there were words in his words, "Queen, what do you mean?"

"You're right, since I regained my body, I have always felt that this world is not lifeless, but constantly plundered. ”

Queen Melissa's words were colder than night ice, and Liu Qingshan could think of what the queen really wanted to say, could it be that there is really a god in this world, and this god is not punishing sinful beings, but deliberately plundering the vitality of this world.

If you think about it, there are many legends in the hometown of gods who have perished because of the filthy desires of human beings.

But they are all cleaned up at one time, and some will even deliberately leave some kind creatures, but the Heavenly Dao is ruthless but will leave a glimmer of life.

Not to mention a glimmer of life in this world, the whole world is constantly reincarnated in despair.

Liu Qingshan slammed and collapsed on the ground, if it really is, it is the existence that can cover the way of heaven, do you really want to go against the sky, what kind of joke, this is not writing a novel.

He thought a lot about it at this moment.

Queen: "You don't have to be so desperate, it's just a guess on my part, maybe it's just that the world is sick and you're losing the vitality that can restore the ecology." ”

Liu Qingshan was frightened by himself, there was no way, this cruel world was really man-made, it was indeed very terrifying.

"So, it's possible to find the cause in the sea of sand?"

Queen Melissa didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Liu Qingshan was very puzzled, it stands to reason that Queen Melissa is so powerful that she can investigate during the period when the tide of the end of the day has subsided, "Then why don't you investigate?"

Queen Melissa explained why, "The Sea of the End is a forbidden area for us, and no matter how powerful it is, it won't take long for it to turn into ashes. ”

Liu Qingshan understood, "So you need outsiders to help you investigate." Queen, please forgive me for not being able to say yes. ”

What are you kidding, he won't step into that kind of place again, and the cruel environment of the sand sea is not comparable here.

Queen Melissa: "I know, I won't force you, it's just a request, you can not accept it." ”

Liu Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that the queen would be unhappy and feed himself to Wangcai, and even drove him directly into the final sand sea.

"However, I will make a condition for you, as long as you are willing to go, this City of Bones is yours, including all high-level bone spirits and me. This condition is always valid, and you can agree to it at any time. ”

Liu Qingshan has really paid respect to Queen Melissa until now, "Is it worth paying such a big price for this uncertain thing, and even if the reason is determined, there is nothing that can be done?"

Queen Melissa nodded lightly, without much heroic and tragic language, but Liu Qingshan could see the heaviness and sincerity.

He knelt down on one knee and saluted sincerely, "Queen Liu Qingshan is willing to follow you for the rest of her life, but I can't agree to it now." ”

"Get up, there's no need to be so heavy. If you have any ideas and needs, you can ask me directly, and the City of Bones can do it with some support. ”

"Hehe, not yet, some immature ideas have to be tried slowly. ”

Queen Melissa said this, of course Liu Qingshan was happy, although there are no good things in the skeleton world, but of course it is best to have someone to support it, at least it can be said that if you go out to mix in the future, you can say loudly that there are people above me.

He suddenly thought of something else, "The queen said about this city of bones. That is, there are others. ”

"Yes, there are seventy-two of them, all of them are on the periphery of the sand seas, and each city is independent, but it is also peaceful. The first is that the greatest enemy is the world itself, and the second is that there is nothing to rob in the first place. ”

Liu Qingshan couldn't imagine that there were so many bone cities, and it was conceivable that the high-level bone spirits in this world still had to be tenacious.

"Then why don't you unite~, the more forces gathered, the stronger the attacked forces will also be. Liu Qingshan came to his senses before he finished asking.

"That's it, so it's better to disperse the defense, and it's convenient to defend. And you can avoid being extinguished in one pot. Okay, I'll disperse if it's okay, I'll have to sleep for a while. ”

Liu Qingshan and the three chief ministers retired and left the side hall, and Baye stayed in the side hall to take care of.

"Ah, I can finally sleep. ”

With a bang, Liu Qingshan fell straight down and fell asleep outside the main hall.

The three chiefs looked at each other.

Wang Tu: "What's going on?"

Wang Quan: "I fell asleep." ”

"I'll ask someone to carry him away, it's too ugly to lie directly at the door of the main hall. "Conquest called the guards, carried Liu Qingshan, and went to the city wall where he was originally stationed.

In the side hall, Queen Melissa did not immediately fall into a deep sleep.

"Baye, do you think we have hope this time?"

Baye was silent, the question was a little heavy, and he said after a while, "I believe that we still have hope, and there is still hope in this world." ”

Although this is said, it is obvious that there is a serious lack of confidence, and it is not uncommon for outsiders to be able to cross the sea of sand in the end, and there are quite a few of them over the years.

"The hundredth one. ”

Queen Melissa turned to look at the hundred skulls on the back wall of the stone bed, which she had retrieved one by one.

"I thought it was hope, but I became more and more desperate every time. Whether it's punishment or conspiracy, when that day strikes again, I'll confirm it myself. Are you with me?"

Fingers ran over the skull one by one.

"Queen, the hegemony will always be by your side. ”

Liu Qingshan, who was sleeping soundly, had not yet fully seen the despair of this world. It's the first time since I came to this world that I've slept so deeply, and it's the first time I've slept so comfortably.

Ever since he met with hope, he has often been awakened by nightmares when he sleeps, fearing that he will lose hope. When they reach the edge of the Bone Field, they are often afraid that hope will degenerate into those mindless skeletons.

After Hope was summoned by Yari, his spirit almost collapsed completely.

After coming to the City of Bones, he suddenly felt that the wanderer had returned home, the young bird had returned home, and he was accepted, so when the City of Bones was facing destruction, he was willing to defend it desperately.

Refusing Queen Melissa's request directly is not a kind of trust, and if he is so distrustful, he will find all kinds of excuses and ways to escape from here.

Queen Melissa also lived up to his trust, which allowed him to further integrate into the City of Bones, so he was able to sleep so freely.

"Whose boss has fallen, come and claim it. ”

Hope ran over and picked up Liu Qingshan, "Thank you, Chief, for sending my boss back." ”

I hope I've learned to be polite now.

"In the future, I came to see the chief minister, the stupid man is rude, not twisting his ass. ”

Conquest waved his hand, let a bone spirit who had just opened a little wisdom salute, he was really stupid if he wanted to be true,

"Forget it, don't salute. After Cologne, follow him, obey all his commands, and be sure to protect them, this is the queen's will. ”

"Cologne commanded. ”

"Cologne, we will be comrades-in-arms in the future, and the kid is still a rookie, so I will give you a lot of advice in the future. ”

Liu Qingshan, who is not familiar with the place, is so polite to his already nominal subordinates, others have an identity to cover for a good night, but he is an outsider who withdraws his head and tail.
