143 Wise and Near
[Sorry, sorry, today's update is a little late, and there was a delay in the morning, rest assured, since I didn't put a leave note, I will definitely not break the change, sweat~~! 】
*****************
Wenqu River is located at the junction of Qubei City and Wenqing City, the two cities are based on this river as the dividing point, many people will run to the river to swim in summer, and nearby residents will always go to the river to wash clothes and vegetables, so the popularity of this river is very strong, if the river is inhabited by such a ferocious creature as a mermaid, it is a very dangerous thing for ordinary people.
Jian Yan's face changed on the spot, "Mermaid...... Do merfolk eat people? ”
Noah nodded and said very seriously, "Mermaids are carnivores, of course they eat people. ”
"But mermaids are not ......" Jian Yan seemed to want to find something to comfort herself, but Jian Qing patted her shoulder and said earnestly, "Sister, don't take fairy tales as reality, they are all deceiving children in the stories." ”
In short: "......", so her IQ is still at the level of children~!
Noah looked at her suspiciously, "What mermaid?" The mermaid is not beautiful at all. ”
Everyone: "......" Mo ~~!
Please forgive Queen Nor, who never reads fairy tales, and her brain waves are always a few frequency bands higher than normal.
Of course, compared to others who have been entangled in whether mermaids are beautiful or not, Qiao Gu has a deeper question, "How did these mermaids get to the Wenqu River?" I've never heard of fish monsters. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and this question is really hard to say.
Qiao Gu thought for a moment. Continuing to ask Noah, he said, "Noah, are there any specific conditions for mermaids?" Like what's attracting them, or what's directing them, or what? ”
"You mean, the merfolk's attack on Mianguang was not accidental, but premeditated?"
Mu Ge frowned, and couldn't help but look at Noah, obviously, this kind of question Queen Noah has the most right to speak.
Queen Noe did not disappoint them. She only thought about it slightly. "Merfolk are secondary creatures, they generally dare not go near places where higher races live, they like to wait in their own territory for their prey to come to the door. It is rare to leave the waters where it lives to attack. ”
"So someone really instructed them." Qiao Gu said. Noah nodded. Qiao Gu's eyes lit up, "Could it be that nature elf?" ”
Noah thought back to his brief contact with Silillo and shook his head categorically. "It's not her."
Qiao Gu raised his eyebrows slightly, "How do you know?" ”
"She doesn't have the aura of a contract on her, she doesn't make a contract with a secondary creature." Noah said, but this sound a little suspenseful, Qiao Gu expressed interest, "How do you know that she didn't make a contract with a secondary creature?" ”
"Do you feel the presence of Liliang who is bound by a contract on her?" Noah asked rhetorically instead of answering.
Qiao Gu was stunned, "How can I feel it?" ”
Noah suddenly smiled lightly, the smile was as short as an ephemeral, but it made Qiao Gu lose his mind for a moment, this feeling is very strange, Qiao Gu and Noah have known each other for twelve years, and have seen Noah's countless smiles, simple, coquettish, cute, bad, murderous, etc., all kinds of laughs, but only this one laugh, can't say clearly, Qiao Gu felt that his heart was inexplicably out of control at that moment.
Noah suddenly raised his hand, his palm was facing Chen Hongjun, a faint red light flowed around a pair of big black eyes, Chen Hongjun blinked his eyes blankly, and he couldn't react for a while, but Noah's five fingers slowly bent, and the invisible energy converged in the palm, like a seal, engraved on Chen Hongjun's body in the air, Chen Hongjun felt his brain stunned, and his whole soul seemed to be buzzing and vibrating.
But what I saw in the eyes of others was Chen Hongjun's bloodless cheeks that were as white as a dead man, and a faint red suddenly appeared on the left side of the chin, and the red slowly deepened, zuihou was as dazzling as blood, and the blood-red traces snaked out of filaments, slowly crawling along Chen Hongjun's cheeks to his forehead, and the left half of his face was covered by a strange blood-colored pattern, as if a unique brand was shocking.
Chen Hongjun didn't feel anything at all, just strange that the others were staring at him with a kind of hellish horror, Chen Hongjun couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his cheek, "What's wrong with you, what's ...... on my face?" ”
The words of doubt suddenly stopped, although Chen Hongjun had become a living dead, but the touch was still there, he felt the strange bumpiness on his cheeks, and he looked at Noah with some horror, "Old ...... Top dog!!! ”
Noah looked at him and tilted his head, "Have you forgotten that you once made a master-servant contract with me?" ”
Chen Hongjun: "Uh......"
Noah turned his head to look at Qiao Gu, "How is it?" How does it feel? ”
Qiao Gu's expression was very strange, there were doubts and puzzles, he scratched his head, for the first time he found that his Xueba's IQ seemed to be a little insufficient, he looked at the others strangely, "Don't you have any special feelings??? ”
In short, Jian Qing, Mu Ge, and Mianguang couldn't help but look at each other, "That pattern looks very crazy." ”
"It's not a look, it's an indescribable feeling, as if you've met an acquaintance, similar to knowing it, but you just feel familiar."
Everyone shook their heads in unison, Qiao Gu's face turned green, and he looked at Noah anxiously, "What's the matter?" ”
Noah's head was crooked again, and the corners of her mouth hooked and showed the kind of smile that made Qiao Gu's heart unbalanced, for the first time, she did not insist on her excellent character of knowing everything and saying everything, but changed the topic with an upright attitude, "The contract of the elf race can sense each other, although she is a natural elf, and I am a night elf, but if she makes a contract with a secondary creature, I will definitely be able to sense it if she also makes a contract with a secondary creature, and without induction, it proves that those mermaids were not instructed by her." ”
Qiao Gu expressed his resentment about Noah's unskillful change of topic, and he stared at Noah with resentment. Noah shook his head arrogantly, and resolutely refused to give him a puzzle, Qiao Gu's curiosity was called scratching his ears and cheeks, but he knew Queen Nuo's urine sex, if she didn't want to say it, Cheng's father and Yang's mother couldn't force him, Qiao Gu had to press his paws to scratch his heart-like curiosity, forcing himself to divert his attention, "Who else could it be if it wasn't her?" ”
Noah looked up, his big eyes flickering at the ceiling. Indicates that he does not know.
Because the matter involves mermaids, it is basically not something that ordinary warriors can solve. Jian Yan and Jian Qing, who don't know anything about magical creatures, basically have no right to speak, Huya is a short-circuited brain, and he can't count on it at all, and Mu Ge is pure logistics. Analytical ability is also not ranked. Chen Hongjun ignored it directly. Queen Nuo couldn't be instructed by anyone, so everyone's expectant eyes fell on the wise scholar.
Qiao Gu took a deep breath. wiped his face hard, feeling that his thinking seemed to have been completely distorted by Noah, and the mermaid seemed to be not the point at all, Qiao Gu had to go through the whole thing all over again, looking for other breakthroughs.
Soon, he found that he had overlooked a very important question, he turned his head and asked Mianguang, "Since you were attacked by mermaids in the Wenqu River, weishenme you will flee to Wenqing City instead of running to Qubei City, Qubei City has a dragon group, no matter how you look at it, it is much safer than Wenqing City." ”
Mianguang stiffened slightly, and his eyes flickered a little unconsciously, which was obviously something to hide.
Qiao Gu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Let me guess, because Wenqing City has a reason why you have to come, and it must be related to the mission, otherwise you can report to Feng Jiu to send others after returning to the Dragon Group, after all, you are so seriously injured, and you must personally participate in the task to complete it, and it is related to new energy substances?" …… You know who snatched the specimen, but you didn't report it directly to the dragon group, which means that you don't think the dragon group will fight the snatchers for a specimen and a few missing members, and the only thing Wenqing City can make the dragon group unwilling to provoke easily is ......
…… Jane's Family!! ”
Qiao Gu talked to himself for a long time, during which Mianguang didn't respond to him at all, but Qiao Da was a little more sophisticated, just looking at Mianguang's expression and the fluctuation of his eyes, he knew that he had guessed eight or nine, and he couldn't help but sneer.
"I'm afraid that the code was deliberately left by you Lao Xu, not at all to ask for help from the members of the Dragon Group who may be passing by Wenqing, but specifically to lure us into the bait, Noah is Cheng Tianqi's sister, Cheng Guangming's daughter, and she is also the number one assassin of the Dragon Group, only if she contacts Feng Jiu, it is possible for the Dragon Group to send someone to Wenqing City to confront the Jian family, you have calculated to use us, right?"
Mianguang's face at this moment was a little paler than when he was seriously injured, he pursed his mouth tightly and closed his eyes without saying a word, but the constantly trembling eyelids revealed the horror in his heart, obviously, he didn't expect Qiao Gu to be able to guess so many things with just a little clue.
Qiao Gu didn't seem to think that the blow to him was not big enough, and continued to say slowly, "Although we didn't deliberately hide our whereabouts when we left Qubei City, it is impossible for us to just come out yesterday and make it known to everyone today, you can know that we will go shopping today We must have gotten the news from some channels, and the reason why we came out today is to avoid the Jian family's question about Jian Lan's injury, that is to say, except for the people of the Jian family, no one can be sure whether we will go out today, the Jian family and the dragon group are not in harmony, It is impossible to deliberately disclose information to you, unless...... You extrapolated from something they did, let me think about it!! ”
Qiao Gu squinted his eyes and looked at Mian Guang, whose face became more and more ugly because of horror, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and said faintly, "The grievances and grievances between the Jian family and the Dragon Group have been going on for a long time, but there is only one one who can have a relationship with us, Noah, Noah never thought of going back to the Jian family, but she has a father and mother surnamed Cheng, although the Jian family is one of the four ancient martial arts families, but it is nothing in the whole of China, the Jian family wants to climb to the family through Noah, the first point is to encircle Noah, but unfortunately, Noah's personality is relatively indifferent." , Ordinary people are not birds at all, if the Jane family wants to reconcile with her, they must find a middleman, there are only a few people that Noah trusts, it is impossible for me to help them, and the Cheng family doesn't have to think about it, the only one who can influence Noah is the person who saved her in the first place, such as Feng Jiu, such as Clear Sky ......"
Mianguang's facial muscles suddenly twitched almost invisibly, and although they returned to normal in an instant, they couldn't escape Qiao Gu's eyes.
Qiao Gu said, "It's a clear sky, it turns out that the clear sky was caught by the Jian family~!" ”
