Chapter 146: Shaded
Zhou Yu had long discovered that the cursed pupil was magnetic. With the exception of the ships in Sullivan and the Netherworld, metals native to the Borderlands are drawn to it. This little secret was discovered when he took over Bolada and only came in handy until today.
"Carney, that's amazing! How do you do it, can you teach me? Wei Ya's two little hands turned red.
"Well, when you grow up, I'll teach you." Zhou Yu said, unceremoniously snatched a piece of something that looked like a cake from a dwarf next to him, and tore it in half, half of it was gnawed on by himself, and the other half was handed to the little girl.
If it comes, it will be safe. At least now there is no other way but to take a step at a time in Dubancia. Thinking about it, the Metropolitan Governor dozed grogily. In his sleep, he seemed to hear someone arguing. I wanted to open my eyes and take a look, but it was white in front of me, and I couldn't tell the outline except for the figures.
"Hey, wake up!"
"Hey, dead pig, wake up!" Zhou Yu suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from the root of his ear, as if he had been picked up by a high school chemistry teacher.
"Ahh Who, who? ”
"Me!" When the Governor looked at it, it turned out to be a lizard girl. He frowned and glared at her, dreaming of marrying a daughter-in-law and was disturbed by her. It's over, and I can't catch up with the plot anymore, it's really disappointing.
"Look at me!"
"Don't look at it, are you good-looking?" Zhou Yu stared out the window, except for the darkness and darkness.
"Tell me, how did you do that?"
"What is it and how?" The Metropolitan Governor yawned lazily, stretched out his neck and glanced around, and there were many people lying horizontally, most of them falling asleep. He took off his coat and covered it for Weiya. felt that it was not enough to block the wind, so he tucked the corner for her again.
"That's it, that's the trick!"
"That's not a trick, it's magic! Close-up magic, you know? Very elegant art, as elegant as *making a romantic action movie! Zhou Yu rolled his eyes.
"Oh, good, good! Magic, it's called magic. Can you teach me? ”
"Can't!" Zhou Yu categorically rejected her proposal, at this time, you must not drag the mud and water, otherwise the other party will think that your attitude is unclear and will continue to press.
"You—you help me!" The lizard girl slowly lowered her head, her eyes darkened. Silence, a constant silence stretched between the two.
"You give me a reason to help you, why should I help you? The world is so big, and there are many people waiting for help. As I said, you can't rely on the government for the elderly. Right? You can either have a son or buy a house. You said that you bought pension insurance, that is because you are willing to buy it and no one forces you, right? The money didn't reach me, as for who embezzled it, where did it go, you look for the leader, find the predecessor, anyway, I can't solve it! ”
The Metropolitan Governor said it in a series of words, and he was comfortable. In the Borderlands, there is such a law of survival - the survival of the fittest, which is not much different from pure nature. Without the constraints of system, law and morality, who stipulates that Zhou Yu must help others, must help the old lady, and must be a savior?
"I—I have a baby!" The lizard girl still hung her head, as if inadvertently wiping the corners of her eyes, but this understatement was keenly captured by the Grand Duke. It turns out that she is not a hard-hearted femme fatale either.
"Oh, don't rely on me! I've just been here for a day, and besides, besides, there are so many witnesses here, it's not so easy for you to make me like to be a father! Zhou Yu is not afraid of the sky or the earth, but he is afraid of being mistaken for the old king next door, and the lizard girl was so frightened that his buttocks moved straight back, hugging Wei Ya tightly, lest he avoid it.
"I didn't mean that. I just want you to teach me that magic trick. If、If possible, I would like to pass it on to the child in the future, so that he can have a skill and be able to support himself... The more the lizard girl spoke, the quieter her voice became.
"Child, don't you say it's dangerous to carry a child?" Hearing her say the word child, Governor Chrysanthemum tightened up and sat up, this proposition hit his key point.
"yes, I had a fight with Mr. Fallen about this." The lizard girl smiled and shook her head, and Zhou Yu could clearly see that she had a wry smile on her face.
"Child, child is his?" Zhou Yu asked tentatively, and then wanted to slap himself again. Why am I asking this so much? He doesn't recognize me as a godfather, and he doesn't plan to give a gift for a hundred days.
The lizard girl didn't speak, avoiding his gaze and looking at the dimly lit corner, which should be considered a default.
"So what's there to talk about? If he wants to recognize the two of you, he will raise them together, and if he doesn't recognize you, he will raise the child himself. What's there? Zhou Yu spread his hands, the chariot people of Kuzsya and the steppe people of Saurasia, where is this kind of marriage system? I don't see anyone looking at these single mothers with tinted glasses.
"If only it were as simple as you say." The lizard girl sat in front of Zhou Yu, bent her knees and put her head on it, and sighed faintly.
"Okay, then I promise to teach you. But you're going to tell me everything you know, that's fair enough, right? Zhou Yu saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time and was preoccupied, and he really didn't know what to say to comfort.
"Really, really?" There was a sparkle in the lizard girl's eyes, and she stared at Zhou Yu's face excitedly, for fear that he was joking and would change his mind in an instant.
"Look at your sincerity, this trick is useless in my stomach. It's better to teach it to useful people. Or not! This time he himself admitted that it was a trick, and no longer called any tall close-up magic.
"Okay, as long as I know, you can ask." The lizard girl retracted her legs, squatted on the ground and looked at Zhou Yu with her chin in her hands, waiting for his wonderful performance.
"Actually, this trick is very simple, the focus is on this prop." Zhou Yu said as he took off a small purple-red ring from his left hand. In the first half of her life, the lizard girl had seen countless kinds of ornaments, and there were not a few men with ornaments, so she didn't pay attention to this small object in his hand at all.
"What's so strange about this, this ring?"
"Whoa!" Zhou Yu put the ring close to her ear, and before she could catch it, she heard a crisp ding, and the earring was sucked over, causing the lizard girl to feel a little pain.
"What's weird about this—this ring?" The lizard girl stared at the things in Zhou Yu's hand with round eyes, and couldn't leave an inch.
It's not nonsense, I said it, you saw it, it's not that the ring is weird, is there a ghost in the house! Zhou Yu really didn't want to take her nonsense, and continued to demonstrate.
"Well, here's the bowl, put the earrings in." Zhou Yu handed the bowl to her, and the lizard girl quickly took off the earrings and put them in.
He watched Zhou Yu turn the bowl over and lift it with his ring hand, and there was nothing on the ground. Put it down and lift the bowl with your unringed hand with the earrings on the ground. It was repeated twice.
"Wait a minute! Please let me look inside the bowl. Zhou Yu held the wooden bowl with his left hand and lifted it, the inside of the bowl was facing the lizard girl, and she clearly saw her earrings sticking to the bottom of the bowl.
"W-This is amazing, isn't it?" The lizard girl snatched the bowl and looked up and down, left and right. There's nothing wrong with the bowl, the bowl is yours. The Governor took off the ring from his hand and handed it to her.
"Well, put this on. Give it a try, practice a few times, and you'll be done. It's so simple! ”
The lizard girl couldn't put it down, holding the ring with a purple halo, and sure enough, the woman had no resistance to the natural jewelry of precious stones, and in an instant she didn't know what she was here for, and she couldn't put it down when she wore the cursed pupil.
"It's not about rings, it's about magic! Oops hey! Zhou Yu patted his head, he was really convinced.
Seeing her practicing in front of his eyes, Zhou Yu felt very relieved. It doesn't matter what your reason, as long as you like to study and love to learn, it's good. A famous person once said: If you stand at a high angle and look down, you like to read the history of the same as you like to read the golden plum. Who is that celebrity? I can only tell you that the celebrity is now hidden in the countryside, similar to Tao Yuanming.
"That, that who... After trying a few times, the lizard girl had completely mastered this technique and leaned over tremblingly.
"Who's that? I have a name, didn't I say it's called Carney! Since his previous life, Zhou Yu didn't like to hear others call himself "that who", but many old comrades and female comrades in the unit like to call themselves like this.
"Oh, oh, Carney. May I ask Carney, where can I get this item? ”
"This is the one I have in my hand. In the case of magnets, both Kuzsia and Soracia should be produced, because someone knows about it. As for whether you Dubancia have it or not, with all due respect, I really don't know. ”
"Then you didn't say anything!" The lizard girl stamped her foot and turned away.
Hey, you're still spoiled, aren't you? Zhou Yu still has some resistance to this kind of coquettish woman with heavy makeup, and the so-called coquettish woman is the best one in her previous life. The mainstream of this place is that Sappe women are the best, and Sappo may not be good, it is estimated that there is a market for bold women who throw their heads and spill their blood.
"Okay, okay, I'll borrow it from you first, right? When I find a magnet for you, I'll be able to change the ring back, right? Zhou Yu thought about it for a long time, anyway, after leaving Kuzsia, he hadn't found out what the holy relics of Shenbing Xun were for, and the ones he carried on his body were nothing more than fine soft goods that involved energy. As the saying goes, when going out, pay attention to a light and simple obedience, and reduce the burden if you can reduce the burden is the necessary common sense for the rapid march.
When the magnet is found, it's not too late to exchange the Cursed Pupil back, after all, there are still agreements to be fulfilled with the Fly Village Toll Station and the Lich Pool Demolition and Retreat Headquarters. Zhou Yu is a person who forgets everything, but he is embarrassed to forget the things he promised others.
The lizard girl went happily with the cursed pupil in her hand, and Zhou Yu thought to herself that she could sleep well this time, and those questions about the child could be asked when everyone woke up. Unexpectedly, when he was just about to close his eyes, the laughter of hahaha came and went, and Wei Ya woke up, rubbing her eyes and drilling into Zhou Yu's arms.
What's wrong with this? Was it electrocuted, or did the Lotto draw begin? Just as he was wondering, he saw the lizard girl walking towards him and Wei Ya with a smile, surrounded by a group of people. It turned out that these people were pretending to be asleep just now.
What do you mean? Zhou Yu had an ominous premonition.
"How's it going, stranger?" There was a hint of cunning on the lizardwoman's face.
"Are you lying to me?" Zhou Yu's words mean that you are working together to perform a good show. is worthy of being a circus, a puff troupe, and a good actor. Could it be that this cursed pupil is her purpose? If it's just for that, it's as simple as rushing up and looting the Duke.
"Liar? It's not a lie, it's something you willingly gave me. ”
Zhou Yu snorted and laughed twice. Alas, no matter what, there is nothing of value in the first place, if you are useful, just take it, he suddenly found that since he got on this wind wheel, his mentality has been a lot, maybe because the future is uncertain, and more likely because he has lost a lot, and he has become numb.
In full view of everyone, he lay in the corner of the wall, turned his head to the side and continued to sleep. This gesture seemed to be a great insult to the lizard girl's group, who looked left and right at her companion who was snickering, and walked up to the governor in anger and stepped on his ankle with her foot.
It hurts, it hurts. Anyone who has been stepped on the ankle knows that this is an extremely vicious way to attack the lower plate, which can be as good as a few days of missing a foot, or breaking bones and tendons, and some powerful agencies will use this trick against prisoners who refuse to confess during interrogation.
Most of the governors endured the severe pain, but still did not say anything, did not raise their heads and did not open their eyes, and pretended to sleep in place. He's already lost his object, and he can't lose his backbone anymore. If he grovels, kneels down and begs for mercy now, or bows three times and nine times, he will have to pour night pots for others in the carriage of the Puxi Tuan in the future.
"I'll let you pretend to be asleep, let you pretend to be asleep!" The lizard girl stomped on Zhou Yu's ankle hard, one foot was not enough for two feet to jump up and step on it, until she heard the sound of a crack in the bone, she slapped her face with satisfaction, and was about to step on his other leg.
"Enough, enough trouble?" A loud shout came from behind everyone, and Zhou Yu, who buried his head in the corner, felt that he was about to faint, and it was the voice of Mr. Fallen that entered his eardrums. Fortunately, he stopped it in time, otherwise his two legs would have been explained here.
"Lizard girl, are you finished?"
"Sir, I... Judging by the tone of the lizard's reply, she was very jealous of the group leader.
"Did I say don't get into trouble, don't bully the weak. Why don't you listen? Zhou Yu, who was lying down, opened his eyes slightly, and the men in his forties were poking the heads of these people who designed to frame him one by one.
"But sir, he—he's a piece of fat. If we don't cut it, there will naturally be others who will cut it. Good things, good things fly! The lizard girl defended herself on the side, as if to say that there is a big fool who is coming to beat him, if we don't beat him for a while, others will also beat him, and if he is beaten to death, there will be no play.
"Brother Carney, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Mister Fallen snatched the lizard girl away, crouched beside the Grand Duke, and looked at him with concern.
"No, it's okay, sir. It doesn't matter, it's not a day or two to walk the rivers and lakes, and it's normal to encounter some right and wrong, good and bad, good and evil. It's just、It's just that my foot seems to be broken.,Mr. Trouble... Zhou Yu said, pointing to his right ankle.
Mr. Fallen reached out and touched the Duke's ankle, frowning and kneading it gently. Suddenly, there was a loud click, and Zhou Yu felt as if he was being wedged on his feet with a shovel, so painful that he forgot to scream, opened his mouth and whimpered, and beads of sweat ran down his forehead.
Wei Ya saw that he was being bullied, and she was in such pain, she hid in his arms and cried. The Grand Governor smiled at her and patted her blonde hair, signaling that he was okay.
"Alright, Brother Carney. I'll help you get your bones straight, but it may take a month or two to get back to walking. On behalf of the Hundred Ghosts Puff Joy Group, I will compensate you for it. If it weren't for my lack of discipline, my brother would not have suffered this ordeal. With that, Mr. Fallen glanced back at the lizardwoman.
"Come here!" A loud shout.
