Chapter 40: Identity

Oss kept smiling, his left hand with five fingers together, the palm of his hand pressed inward in front of his right chest, and at the same time stretched out his right hand and handed it to Xiao Douding, bowed slightly and said, "Please get up, we have no malice." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

However, in the face of Oss's friendly kindness, this little female dwarf did not respond at all. Her small nose furrowed, still twitching, stared blankly at Oss's smiling face.

Oss let out an embarrassed "uh", thinking something was wrong. He examined his entire body and found no signs such as leather armor worn backwards, belt buckle wrong, etc. Oss wondered if his face was unclean, but he heard laughter behind him. He turned his head for some reason, looking at his dwarven brothers behind him.

At this time, the three brothers, Kudran and Sandmar, were covering their mouths and snickering, and they watched Oss's movements with their eyes like a good show. They whispered to each other over and over again, and speculated wildly.

Kudran said, "Look, look, what a gentleman Osdy is. Nuen, that's what you said, right? ”

Nuen said, "Yes, I have seen human envoys who call themselves noble gentlemen and act exactly like Os! ”

Gothrum smirked and said, "I say, have you ever seen Oss in Karanos be so polite to a female dwarf?" ”

The more honest Talon Aix replied directly: "I haven't seen it." ”

Then, what Tallon Ax said made Kudran, Nuen, and Gothrum laugh even more insolently.

The dwarves' voices cannot be expected to be heard by all, and their so-called whispers must be heard by all.

Embarrassed, Oss withdrew his right hand, turned around and glared at the four brothers who were talking nonsense. And the little female dwarf also stood up tremblingly. She picked up the staff that had tumbled off the ground beside her, and held it tightly in front of her with both hands.

Oss turned around again, and when he saw the little dwarf's movements, he knew what was going on, and patiently explained, "Hello, please don't be afraid. My brothers didn't mean it just now, and there is a reason for it, please allow me to explain. ”

The little dwarf still didn't speak, but took a step back, leaning his back against the mountain rock behind him.

Oss was even more embarrassed and asked again, "Can you understand the lingua franca?" We're really not bad guys. ”

This time, the little dwarf finally spoke: "Yes." ”

Just one word, although her voice is a little hoarse, it can't hide the crispness and melodiousness, just like the nascent chirping of a yellow warbler, and the vitality of the grass when it sprouts.

A smile regained on Oss' face, and he hastened to explain, in the briefest of words, for what the brothers had just done: "Let me explain that the reason why my brothers are attacking you is because just a few days ago, the nearby dwarven village, Spirits, was besieged by lepers and wolves, and suffered heavy casualties. When they suddenly saw you, they thought you were also a leper dwarf, so they thought about avenging your compatriots. ”

"I see it." After listening to Oss's explanation, the little dwarf said in a small voice and weakly.

"What? What did you say? ”

Because the voice was too small, Oss didn't hear clearly, and he asked again. However, the little dwarf did not answer, her little hands rubbed her stomach, and she looked very tired.

"It looks like you're tired, so let's get out of here with us and find a place to rest. I'll talk about that later, okay? ”

The little dwarf nodded, believing Oss and willing to leave with him.

Oss smiled at the little dwarf again, and then turned to his brothers and said, "Kudran, call Shi Dun'er up, it seems that she is very tired, let Shi Dun'er carry her." ”

Kudran gave him a "I understand" look, smirked evilly, and turned down the rock to summon the stone pier.

Facing Kudran's inexplicable gaze, Oss rolled his eyes in response, and continued: "Nuen, let's go back and find a suitable place to set up camp outside the radiation range. Depending on the situation, we will stay here for a while, waiting for reinforcements from the three major tribes. ”

Nuen should snort and say, "I know that there is a cave on the hill northwest of the village of Spirits. It was the place where the wine was sealed, some distance from Nomorigan, and there should be no radiation. ”

Oss nodded, gave Nuen a thumbs up and said, "Hey, awesome." Nuen, just take us there. ”

With that, Nuaine turned and descended the rock.

Oss smiled at Gothrum again, and he laughed until Gothrum scratched his head in embarrassment, and then said, "Gothrum, thanks to you for raising a huge bonfire on the island in the middle of the lake, so we don't need to have a tent. Otherwise, for the next period of time, everyone will have to sleep in the cave, and there will be no use for any daily necessities. ”

Gothrum listened to this, his embarrassed expression disappeared, and he puffed up his chest with joy.

Seeing this, Talon Ex said in a counter-words: "Brother Oss praised you, you are still proud, who caused everyone to only gnaw bread!" ”

"Uh......" Gothrum was embarrassed again, this time, he did not even make a fuss with his younger brother, but said, "I know that I am wrong, it's a big deal, I'll go hunting, bring you back a few wolves, and treat you to a big wolf meat feast." ”

As he spoke, the stone pier climbed up. And Gothrum and Talonex, seeing that the stone pier had arrived, jumped directly over the stone pier and jumped off the rock.

Oss turned and said softly to the little dwarf, "This is our beast companion, and it's called Stone Dun'er. Let it carry you off, okay? ”

However, something unexpected happened. Oss was now facing the little dwarf, with his back to the stone pier, so he didn't see it.

When Shidun climbed up the rock and saw the little female dwarf through Oss, her eyes, which were bigger than copper bells, revealed fear. Then, Shi Dun'er turned around and ran down directly.

After Oss and the little dwarf finished talking, they turned around and beckoned Shi Dun'er to come forward, but found that Shi Dun'er was gone.

Oss was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Huh? What about the stone piers? ”

While muttering, he walked a few quick steps. Oss walked around the large protruding boulder, just in time to see the stone pier run down the rock, and then around behind the three brothers, Kudran and Sandmar.

Oss shouted at Kudran and Stone Pier, "Kudran, how did you let Stone Pier go down?" Hey, Stone Pier! Come on up! We need your help! ”

It's just that Os's shouting made Shi Dun'er shrink back again. Its huge size, hidden behind the three brothers Kudran and Sandmar, is so funny to look at.

Seeing this, Kudran dragged the thick front legs of the stone pier and pulled it up the mountain rock, but the stone pier did not move. Kudran ran behind Stone Pier and pushed it again, but Stone Pier was arched to the ground!

The three Sandmar brothers stood aside, laughing and laughing, without the slightest intention of helping. Oss also stood on the rocky mountain and saw it clearly, and he was overjoyed.

Kudran got up from the ground, rubbed his buttocks, and shouted at Oss: "Os, the stone pier is afraid, it is afraid to go up, what else is on the rock?" ”

"Shi Dun'er is scared?" Oss repeated in a low voice, frowning.

Then, Oss took a closer look at his surroundings. He was sure that there were no people, no wild beasts, and no insects or flowers. Visual examination was fruitless, and Oss stood still, closing his eyes, and intently using his senses to search.

When the three brothers, Kudran and Sandmar, ran up again, Oss still didn't sense anything wrong. On the whole mountain rock, there was only him, the brothers who had just run up, and the little dwarf.

"Little gnomes?" Thinking to himself, Oss walked back to the big rock, frowned, and looked at the little female dwarf carefully.

The little dwarf also saw Oss and found that Oss was staring at her, his eyes full of inquiry and doubt. She lowered her little head in fear, and her two small hands clasped the staff tangled.

Oss thought to himself, "Will Stone Pier be afraid of a little dwarf? There must have been something wrong with that, but I didn't notice it. In short, be careful, and then face Nomorigan, don't let anything happen. ”

After thinking about it, Oss walked up to the little dwarf, squatted down with his back to her, and said, "It seems that I am the only one who carries you." Come on, let's go. ”

"Hmm." Timidly agreed, the little dwarf's light body climbed onto Oss's back.

Just when the little dwarf leaned on Oss's back and came into contact with Oss, she was stunned for a moment, and then laughed happily.

Oss heard the little gnome's laughter, and though he was puzzled, the laughter that was close to his ears, like the sound of wind chimes, was very pleasant. Therefore, Oss did not think much about it.

At this time, the little dwarf lying on Os's back waved his left hand slightly. Suddenly, the space she waved through seemed to be moved by her little hand, bringing ripples. There were also several halos of light, spreading out in all directions.

Out of the corner of Oss's eye, he saw a glimmer of light behind him. In the sunlight, this halo glows with a faint gold. Osborne thought he was seeing the Light, but he didn't feel any Light. He only felt that this pale golden halo was quiet, obscure, and mysterious, which was unusual.

Oss just wanted to ask a question, but when he heard the little dwarf behind him, his tone was cheerful, and he said very happily: "It turns out that you are the person my father asked me to bring back!" It's great that I'll be home so soon! ”

The little dwarf's words shocked Oss! In just an instant, he understood the identity of this little dwarf!

However, it was too late, and Oss could not move at this point.

Oss didn't know what the little gnome was doing behind his back, but now, he was imprisoned in place. And in front of Oss, in his sight, the three brothers Kudran and Sandmar were standing in place at this moment, without saying a word! Motionless! What's more, Kudran kept his feet up, and beside him, Nuyne was opening his mouth as if to speak. And all the dwarves have one thing in common, that is, the expressions on their faces are frozen, as if they were a picture.

Oss shouted in shock: "Time stands still!? ”
