Chapter 239: Two Masks
"Ahem." The stall owner cleared his throat first, and then said to everyone, "That's right, yes, what's so strange about the giant beast I've seen?" Because, as the gentleman said, the behemoth is dead! ”
"Dead?"
"Really dead?"
"No, it can't be made up again, right?"
"That is, how can the giant beast die?"
"Who killed the behemoth?"
The stall owner stretched out his two hands and pressed down, and after the restless crowd had quieted down a little, he said, "I don't know how the giant beast died." ”
"Hmph." A cold voice came, it was the big man with a stiff face.
"Oh?" The stall owner raised an eyebrow.
"I see," Dahan took two steps forward, "I can't make up the reason, can I?" ”
"Hmph." The stall owner smiled, smiling very happily, "The reason, naturally, is to make up as many as I want, but why should I make it up?" ”
"What, what?"
"As you said, seeing is believing." The stall owner said triumphantly, "So, I'm only talking about what I saw with my own eyes." I've only seen the corpse of a giant beast, and I haven't seen the process of its death. ”
"You ......" The big man seemed to have been hit hard, and he didn't know what to say.
And the stall owner's offensive continues.
"So," said the stall owner, looking at the big man defiantly, "I don't know that the cause of the beast's death is normal. Moreover, I am very frank and will never make up things that I have not seen! ”
"You ......" The big man stood in place and didn't look back, but he suddenly felt that the limelight had changed again, and the number of people who believed in the stall owners gradually increased, and he became a boring person who only picked thorns everywhere.
"Okay, okay." Dahan was ready to make a last stand, "Since you have seen the corpse of a giant beast, why don't you tell me what that giant beast looks like?" ”
The Han's voice fell, and the crowd stirred again.
"yes, what does a giant beast look like?"
"Speak quickly, speak quickly."
"yes, I want to know."
Crowded with stall owners, the small fish stall has become the center of the market.
What does a behemoth look like?
I don't know.
Just as the stall owner began to feel nervous, he glanced at the crowd. Looking at a pair of eyes that were both expectant and curious, the stall owner was suddenly relieved. He decided to use his life's imagination to weave a bold scene.
Most of the vendors are eloquent, and the stall owners are no exception.
"What do you say about the appearance of the giant beast," the stall owner frowned slightly, as if recalling the image in his mind.
The crowd was silent, and even the sound of breathing could not be heard.
Hmph, the stall owner completely relaxed.
What does a behemoth look like?
It's not all in my own mouth, no one has seen it anyway!
"I went at dusk the next day." The stall owner began to silently weave a dreamlike picture, "At that time, there was no one around the huge wind control bureau, and it was very quiet. Walking on the snow that has not yet melted, I can even hear my own heartbeat. ”
Everyone was listening quietly, especially the big man, whose indifferent face suddenly sharpened like a falcon. He was chewing every word carefully, not letting go of any clues.
"The door was in tatters, and I couldn't help but look up as I looked through the heavy frame, and on the top edge of the high, barely visible top, I seemed to see a few bricks of the wall crumbling. I rushed in in a panic. Boy! If this thing falls, it's going to smash me to pieces. ”
I have to say that the stall owner is a good storyteller. He paints the atmosphere as he unfolds the picture.
"The sight inside the door is shocking." The stall owner paused slightly.
He silently looked at the crowd of onlookers, and found that everyone was watching him intently.
"Destroyed. Utterly destroyed. Construction waste is everywhere, and everywhere is a scene of ruins. Just as I was looking into the distance, I saw the corpse by the setting sun! ”
"Ahh
"Oh my God."
There was an exclamation from the crowd.
I don't know if it was deliberate, the stall owner raised his head and silently looked at the sun that was already in the west, and then lowered his head and continued.
"The corpse lay on the decaying ground, unimaginably large. It's like, it's like a beast left over from the ancient flood period. It has pitch-black skin, black revealed. At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun is hitting it, and it is like the entrance to hell. The stall owner took a breath and continued, "I don't know where I got the courage, but I walked towards the corpse step by step like a demon. The ground is like the remains of an ancient battlefield, full of ravines and ravines, uneven. That's when I suddenly tripped and fell. Just as I got up angrily, I was shocked to find that it was a bloody arm that tripped me. I fled in a panic, but there was nowhere to run. Before I knew it, I was approaching the beast. Finally, as the sun was nearing, I came to the head of the beast hanging from the ground, its cold fangs, the size of a door, still shining in the darkness. The skull is even bigger and staggering, like a small mountain. I silently admired the rare sight, and the sky grew darker and darker, until it was full of stars. ”
The stall owner finally stopped, looking at the stunned crowd, and he was very satisfied.
This time, I played very well.
Of course, I've used all the idioms I know.
The stall owner's eyes began to wander on his faces with different expressions, and finally found that in addition to the big man who had a "grudge" against him, there were two people who were unmoved.
It's the first pair of brothers to appear!
Both of them were holding fancy turbans, and they were now standing with a big grin, as if they were both interested in their own words and as if they were bored with everything.
It's weird, it's so weird.
Such a different expression can perfectly appear on the same face?
The stall owner suddenly realized that he had not observed these two people well, so he decided to focus on these two people.
At this time, Dahan spoke.
"Hmph, although you said so much, you are simply avoiding the important and light!"
"Avoid the important and light?" Although the stall owner was talking, his eyes did not look at the big man, but switched back and forth between the two people.
"Of course, it's to avoid the important and light!" Dahan found that he was actually despised, so his voice became more urgent, "Although you have been talking for a long time, it is all the words of the clouds and mountains and fog. Tell me what the head of the beast looks like. What kind of animal does it look like? ”
"Well...... stall owner replied absentmindedly.
Strange, so strange!
It's so strange that the two people who came into their field of vision at the beginning of this time.
Although they had two slick faces, they seemed to be a little too stiff. At least half a minute passed, and the stall owner didn't even see any change in the two faces.
It's like two masks!
"Say!" Dahan was furious.
This bastard actually ignores himself?
"Dogs. No, it should be a wolf. The stall owner finally responded.
"Is it a wolf or a dog?" The big man roared.
"Hmph. Who knows? The stall owner smiled, slowly stood up, and gently patted the dust on his body, "How can wolves and dogs be so clearly distinguished?" ”
"You, what are you going to do?"
"It's not too early, of course I'm going home." The stall owner said with a smile.
There are three reasons why he is ready to go home.
First, he's had enough of it today, and he's very happy with what he's saying today.
Second, he finished saying everything he could think of, and if he didn't leave, it would only be a matter of time before he faced many listeners and many problems that might arise.
Third, it has to do with the two stiff-faced people next to him, as if wearing masks.
Intuition told the stall owner that these two people were different from the crowd around them, and that they were not simple guys. Their words and deeds, every move always brings an invisible pressure to the stall owners. The stall owner didn't want to get into trouble.
But the big man clearly likes to get into trouble.
"You can't go!" The big man took a fierce step forward and stood at the head of the circle with the two mysterious people.
"What else do you want?" The stall owner frowned and said, "I've told you everything I've seen and heard." ”
"No, no." The big man shouted anxiously, "You can't leave until things are clear." ”
"Things? What's the matter? ”
"You, you're lying. You've never been to the Storm Turbine at all! ”
Before the stall owner could speak, a loud voice came.
"Why are you so stubborn?"
Everyone followed the prestige, and it turned out to be the Earth Demon Clan.
Hmph, the stall owner is happy, it seems that I don't need to bother to speak, I am not the only one who has a "grudge" against this big man.
"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes," said the Earth Demon loudly, "how could people have said it so vividly?" ”
"You ......"
"I think you're just a scoundrel. You feel like you've lost face, don't you? The Earth Demon said proudly, "I'll ask you, do you know what it's like inside the Wind Turbine?" Do you know what a behemoth looks like? ”
"I ......" the big man was speechless.
"Huh. Whether what I said is true or not, you can judge for yourself in your heart. The stall owner laughed twice, looked at the people gathered around him and said, "It's not too early, I should go back, everyone should disperse." ”
"Well, that's the end of it." A pedestrian said with regret.
"You, what else do you want to know?"
"Yes, after all, the boss has already said everything he saw."
"I, what I want to know most is what's going on with the Storm Authority."
"Yes, yes, the beast is dead, the beast is dead? Who did it? ”
"I want to know."
The stall owner smiled at the chattering crowd and did not speak, then leaned down and began to pack up his things.
The crowd finally ended the round and began to slowly disperse.
It was at this time that a cold voice appeared.
"Who killed the beast? Hehe, I know. ”
