Chapter 53: The King and the Dog 8
Just do it, Dong Wusheng immediately cast a spell on the pile of scorpions that were pinched off their heads and tails.
A purple-black halo of light rose from the scorpion's body, gathered in Dong Wusheng's palm, and converged into a fist-sized ball of light, and the scorpions that had taken away their power all turned into flying ashes and disappeared in an instant.
"Success?"
Madara smiled at her moves.
Dong Wusheng sneezed, covered his nose and shook his head, "It's just that I pulled it out, I should be able to drive this, but ...... They seem to be repulsing me......"
As he spoke, Dong Wusheng sneezed again, "...... Ahem, I can't absorb it. ”
Probably thinking it was a little funny, Madara couldn't help but laugh.
Dong Wusheng glanced at him, snorted with a smile, dripped a drop of blood on the light cluster, and watched the light cluster disperse, "Get out, little bastard." ”
Although the experiment to absorb the power of calamity failed, at least it was much more efficient to use this method to remove calamity, and it was not completely fruitless.
After clearing all the scorpions he saw, Dong Wusheng stood up and stretched, the sky was completely dark at this time, and if you looked closely, you could see the dark clouds in the sky that were drifting with the wind.
The desert is cold at night, and the wind blows bitterly cold.
"Let's go back quickly. ”
......
Early the next morning, Allen came over.
"I'm sorry, my mother is too fierce, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it, so I thought I'd better forget it next time. ”
Dong Wusheng smiled nonchalantly, "Your mother just wants you to be better in the future." ”
Dong Wusheng just casually took it, Allen was obviously used to hearing these words, and frowned and complained, "I know too, but she always shoehorns her own wishes into me, which is really annoying." ”
"If that's so annoying, why don't we make a deal?"
Dong Wusheng thought about it, and simply went straight to the point, "Who else is there in your family besides you and your mother?"
Allen was stunned for a moment, a little dazed, "Eh, just me and my mother?"
"What about pets?"
"I don't have pets. ”
This time it was Dong Wusheng's turn to be stunned, her eyes were fixed on Allen, and the boy did not shy away from her gaze, but his breathing was slightly heavier.
Dong Wusheng wasn't even sure if his change was a natural reaction, she thought about it and showed a sudden look, "You already know that your pet is a calamity?"
The boy raised an eyebrow in dismay, "What are you talking about?"
If Dong Wusheng hadn't heard it with her own ears yesterday, she might really suspect that there was something wrong with her judgment at this time.
Even now, Dong Wusheng has begun to consider other possibilities.
But it was a little strange that the clue was interrupted so suddenly, Dong Wusheng looked at Allen and smiled, "I understand, you were guarding the intersection of the sandbar from the beginning, and as soon as I appeared, I immediately told me that Ilent was the calamity I was looking for, and after I investigated, I also found that Erent was indeed a calamity, if you follow the general process of the temple, you will really succeed." ”
Dong Wusheng paused, showing a look of appreciation, "I can't see it, although you are young, you have the strategy and courage you should have, and the most important thing is to dare to kill people......
Dong Wusheng looked at the boy's finally somewhat changed eyes, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "I changed my mind, originally, I wanted to help you solve the problem of the scorpion once and for all, and use it to exchange it for your pet, which can be regarded as a great joy, but now I feel that it is too wasteful to stay in this sandbar with your ability, why don't you go back with me, I have some work here that is suitable for you......"
Dong Wusheng put his hand on the boy's shoulder and patted it twice suggestively, "As long as you agree, then you can take your pet with you, and I will arrange a place for you to live, and ensure that absolutely no one dares to trouble you, how about it?"
The boy shook off her hand and stared at her in disbelief for a few seconds, "Are you lying to me?"
Hooked.
Dong Wusheng leaned back in his chair generously, "Yes." ”
The boy was stunned, his face alternated between blue and white, and finally lowered his head, "What do you want?"
It's finally done.
Dong Wusheng secretly let out a sigh of relief, looking at Allen's eyes with some resentment.
How old is a little child, so difficult to do, how can the world like you be rich, strong, democratic, harmonious and beautiful?
"I'm also going to complete the task, or that deal, I'll help you get rid of the scorpion, and you give me your pet, how about it?"
The boy bit his lower lip hard, and his expression made Dong Wusheng a little uneasy, "I...... You make me think again. ”
This guy is probably the limit.
Dong Wusheng looked at the boy's dejected appearance, and sighed in his heart, but there was a reluctant look on his face, "It's okay, then give you two more weeks to think about it." ”
The boy's lips trembled, and it seemed that it took a great deal of strength to say a word, "...... Good. ”
Looking at the back of the boy leaving in a hurry, Dong Wusheng pinched the bridge of his nose, lay on the chair in silence for a while, and then got up slowly, ready to go downstairs.
When I was in the corridor, I met Yrent, and this guy was still full of vitality and invincible.
"Good morning, Higashi. ”
"Good morning. ”
Dong Wusheng smiled, as always.
......
To Dong Wusheng's surprise, Allen came again only three days later, but he was forcibly dragged over by his mother.
"I'm so sorry that I didn't discipline my son properly and caused trouble to your work. ”
Allen's mother seemed to be a very cold and hard woman, the kind of woman who seemed to be made of steel in every bone, and her expression was very serious when she spoke, and she couldn't find a smile on her face, but what she said was surprisingly reasonable.
"It's okay, your son is very smart. ”
Dong Wusheng sat at the table, took a sip of the tea that Madara had brought over, and looked at Allen's mother with a smile.
Allen's mother also had a faint smile on her face, "What do you call it?"
"Just call me Dong. ”
"Okay, I've learned about Miss Dong's proposal from Allen. ”
Then the teacup blocked, Dong Wusheng looked at Allen who was sitting on the side with the corner of his eye.
The boy sat beside his mother with his head bowed, sitting in an unconventional position, his hands on his knees, and twisting the corners of his clothes.
"And what did you decide?"
Dong Wusheng smiled and put down the teacup.
"You can come and get my pet at any time, but as for the matter of removing the scorpion, let me confirm with Miss Dong first, what can the temple do to deal with this huge number of calamities in the desert?
Dong Wusheng was stunned for a moment, and raised his eyebrows in some surprise.
It was the first time she had met someone who asked if the calamity would be painful.
"Hmm...... I don't quite understand what you mean, ma'am, but the way I deal with calamities here is different from the usual way, and calamities themselves will not cause suffering, and there will be absolutely no hidden dangers. ”
"Really......"
Dong Wusheng saw the smile on Allen's mother's face, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes were all stretched, looking like she was the same person just now, and there was a bit of gentleness between her eyebrows.
"That would be great. ”
Allen's mother could probably guess Dong Wusheng's confusion at this time, and smiled at her and said, "Miss Dong, please call me when you are ready, and I can take you to find the spirit scorpion's lair." ”
