Straight Ronin
Since seeing many strange creatures that can speak, Yu Siqi is no longer so sensitive to the existence of no articulatory organs and the ability to speak normally, at least not at present.
So when he found out that the other party had asked the same question as himself, out of politeness, he told the other party that his name was Yu Siqi and that he was a passing traveler.
And this dry bone was not too surprised, and said in a flat tone: "Luo Ning, people usually like to call me 'upright Luo Ning'." If it's convenient, can you give me back my pubic bone? I don't think you're a bad person, so why are you attacking me? ”
“... Your appearance makes it hard for me not to attack. Yu Siqi handed over the pubic bone in his hand and stared at the other party's next movement with alertness. After making sure that the other party had almost no hostility towards him, Yu Siqi remembered something and asked casually, "You said your name is Luo Ning?" ”
"Yes, that's right. Is there a problem? Or is it where have you heard of my name? Luo Ning clumsily propped up his upper body with both hands, intending to return the pubic bone that Yu Siqi exchanged for him, but found that he couldn't free his hands. So he looked up and asked, "Can you help me stuff this thing back?" I don't think I'll be able to live without it! ”
"I've seen your name on some papers, and I've had the pleasure of reading a little bit about you..."Yu Siqi bent down, put the bone towards it, and quickly retreated to a safer position. In fact, he was still wary of this skeleton who called himself 'Luo Ning', after all, the appearance of the other party was really difficult to completely reassure.
"Is it on the commuter meter?" Ronin, who managed to stand up straight, twisted his ass a few times, then walked towards the lighthouse and said, "How are the others?" ”
"Others?" Yu Siqi cautiously followed him, always keeping a distance from him.
"Isn't the light coming from the pantry? You must have already met with them, so why should you be so wary of me? Unless, you're attacked by them? Luo Ning's skull turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and he said to himself.
"So far, I've only seen you talking bones, am I lucky? Or is there something else going on, after all, the other bones are very quiet there! Yu Siqi said frankly.
"Quiet? I don't think any of them will be safe..."Luo Ning walked into the storeroom, walked to the pile of dry bones with his dexterity, and stared at it for a long time before turning to Yu Siqi, who entered the room on his hind feet, and said, "It seems that their souls have been taken away by the Night People. ”
"Nightfolks?" Yu Siqi was still confused about this new term, but Luo Ning sat next to those dry bones and said very casually: "It seems that you are indeed not a local!" Even the people of the night don't know, did you come from the sea? Or have you never walked the night road? ”
Yu Siqi shook his head, after observing for so long, he really didn't detect a trace of hostility on the other party's body. So, for the time being, he put away his extra vigilance, sat down on the ground directly opposite him, and asked, "If it's convenient, can you tell me what the Night People are?" And who the hell are you? Is it the keeper of the lighthouse, or is it? ”
"Let's answer a simple question first, my name is Luo Ning, and I told you this just now. As for the others you asked, they were Mamluks, Sha Shou, Kaede Zishi, and Chogao. We are all expatriates belonging to the ninth formation of Wanjiatang, and our current duty is to take care of this lighthouse, so let's be regarded as the caretaker here. If you have to have an answer. Luo Ning touched his bare skull with his hand, and after realizing that he was no longer hairless, he lowered his slender arm and said, "I forgot that I became this virtuous again, but it's a pity that I have thick hair." ”
"Wait, you said Wanjiatang?" Yu Siqi heard a term that aroused his interest, and asked with concern.
"Is there anything you mind?" Luo Ning asked politely.
"No, you can answer the question." Yu Siqi felt that it was better not to explain to the 'people' here that its realization had been renamed 'Tangjiawan' here.
"Before I explain to you what the Nightfolk are, I think it's necessary to educate you, the out-of-towners, about our rules here. For well-known reasons, we are all among the people of ten thousand families, and we obey them and serve them. However, because these are foreign surnames, we are usually assigned to positions that our family does not want to fill. I don't blame them for this, after all, I was born with a distinction between high and low. Luo Ning straightened his sitting posture, and a few bones were broken out by his over-forceful movements, but fortunately he picked them up in time: "But there is always a small group of people who think this is unequal behavior and encourage others to fight with them and their own family. For this reason, they were deprived of their family names and the value of their existence, and became individuals who could only move around at night. It's a pity that it didn't give any of them any willingness to reflect, and I sympathize with them, because if it were me, I wouldn't have been able to pretend that nothing had happened. So, as you can imagine, they have been favored by the darkness and become puppets of the shadows. ”
Luo Ning's tirade provided Yu Siqi with a lot of useful information, not to mention the truth and falsehood of these words, if it is really as he said, then the situation of the priest and Gong Chen is not very good?
After noticing that Yu Siqi's face changed a few times, Luo Ning waved his hand and added, "Don't worry, there is plenty of light here." Just stay where there is light, and they will never touch you. You'll just have to wait until the sun comes out before you leave, and I don't think my 'old buddies' will have any objections to your presence anyway. ”
It was Luo Ning's words that made Yu Siqi even more worried out of thin air. Fr. Ann, for his part, said that he himself should not lack the 'element' of light. Gong Chen, who went to catch the rabbit, was not sure, according to his own stereo, he would take out two flashlights if he died, which was already the limit.
However, just as he was about to take a look at the door, the oncoming man was walking like a fly, and seemed to be carrying some long things in his hands. Behind him, Father Ann's majestic body was walking towards him with glowing arms held high.
