Chapter 631: Egg Thief Three, Dwarves and Runes
Pouting, Jiao Ming said: "This is not an optimistic situation, there must be some positive factors, don't sell it." β
"There is something wrong with both sides in this matter, and they are pinched by the other party, and they also have excuses to shirk. The biggest possibility is that it is a war of words, which has a big impact and takes a long time. Optimistically, this matter is best a topic of discussion for the entire dwarven clan after dinner, but it is a good opportunity for us to expand our influence. Even if you end up being kicked out of the Dwarven Islands, business can grow by choosing an island on the edge as a transit. β
"Is this what you think?"
"This is what I discussed with Binglian when we adjourned the meeting before. β
That being said, Jiao Ming guessed that the formulation of this big plan must be led by Binglian. Because in Chunyu's mind, there are still more muscles and a group of three or five people who are more intelligent.
At this moment, there was another wave of spatial fluctuations, and a letter appeared in the hand of the patriarch and the old woman. He glanced at it and handed it to the translator behind him. Jiao Ming listened attentively and also knew the latest developments. The Blue Clan's higher-ups simply took the lead in making a big deal and continued to report it to an agency in charge of dwarven affairs. Now this is the task to wait for the news with peace of mind, and at the same time, people will be guarded.
Jiao Ming suddenly remembered that there was still a core figure who didn't look away, and asked in a low voice where he was. The spring rain dagger flipped over, and the tip pointed to the side. Blindfolded, he was pinned to the ground by a nine-ring-level god's pet beast.
"It's not all eavesdropping. β
"It's not easy? Isn't it over every half hour? Chunyu said, and used the dagger in his hand to make a small horizontal stabbing motion. "Besides, the whole island is the safest here, what else can I do?"
"This ......" was speechless for a while, and his little finger picked at his itchy ear, and then he held back a sentence. The resentment caused by this method must be not small, and it is too hurtful and angry.
"Now, it's not just a personal grudge, do you think it's possible to give up? β
Jiao Ming thought for a moment and retorted: "The dwarf race was forced to live alone in the land of the bitter cold islands overseas, and compared to the Ifusen Theocracy, the overall strength must be the weaker side. This is also evidenced by the hostile attitude towards the theocracy of Evsen. Hate into the bone marrow, then can be extinguished, the other party has long been destroyed, there is no international public opinion and national image constraints here. So in summary, this is the external contradiction is greater than the internal contradiction......"
After only listening to a few words, Chunyu's patience ran out and he waved his hand to interrupt, "It's good that you have a point." β
Jiao Ming was choked, rolled his eyes, and gave up talking nonsense with this kind of 'oil and salt don't enter', and continued to listen to the conversation between Binglian and the village elder woman. But it wasn't long before he discovered that business was becoming the main topic of conversation between the young and the old, and with the special parental shortness between women, it was rare to hear that one of the ten conversations was related to dealing with the current situation.
At this point, it seems that he is listening to a high math class after staying up late, the more Jiao Ming listens, the more confused he becomes, and the sleepiness rises, his neck crooked and he begins to nap, and he is in a daze until dinner time when the sun sets.
"Have you slept?" Chunyu asked with a smile again.
"Almost. Jiao Ming replied casually, rubbing his eyes and looking around. It's still the dwarven council hall, but most of the people have dispersed. Including Chunyu, the remaining five Eight Rings were sitting around eating, and the posture was the prisoner's duty guard. There are also a few dwarven villagers with a small number of rings feeding the captives and the pet beasts of the Nine-Ringed God who are responsible for 'suppressing' the captives.
"You woke up as soon as the meal arrived, and I suspect you're pretending to be asleep. β
"This is the basic talent of the foodie people, you don't understand. Jiao Ming said, stretching his waist and twisting his muscles and bones, with a long sigh of comfort, accompanied by the rumbling of his stomach, and then sat down unceremoniously beside Chunyu.
The warriors of the dwarves in this village have all studied qi magic with Jiao Ming, so of course it is impossible to be negligent and negligent under familiarity, and the meals have been prepared early. A dwarf middle-aged aunt pushed two wooden basins, one large and one small, the big one filled with the special pickled sea fish that the stomach juice of the god's pet beast participated in fermentation, and the small one was the sorghum rice that was successfully planted in the trial.
Jiao Ming thanked him in the half-baked island dwarf language, took a big bite of it, and padded his stomach a little, before asking Chunyu if he had missed something.
"Don't talk to me, I can't stand the smell. β
"Eldest sister, a real man like you, are you still afraid of this?"
Chunyu was stunned, then laughed, and covered her mouth in time to not squirt out food. "That's an interesting statement. Oh yes. The madman also said that it was almost the same, and it was called a 'female man', right?"
Suddenly hearing such a ridiculous Chinese speaking vocabulary, Jiao Ming smiled happily, and of course twisted his head at the same time. "It's rare that you learned a 'good word' from a madman. β
Chunyu didn't care about this ridicule, and talked about the situation while eating. After listening to a few words, Jiao Ming found that the other dwarves in the room were also gradually talking and laughing, which was in strong contrast to the quiet environment when he first woke up, and his heart couldn't help but warm.
As for the content of the conversation after Jiao Ming fell asleep in the afternoon, it didn't matter. In terms of business, it is natural to expand cooperation, and in terms of people's livelihood, there is actually an intention to be friendly, of course, it is limited to the intention for the time being.
Hearing this, Jiao Ming thought of the issue of reproductive isolation, but felt that it was better not to say it to be disgusting. If there is no result, the two sides will naturally stop. If you have an heir, wouldn't it be a slap in the face to say it?
β...... Finally, there is another thing, Ice Lotus plans to put "One-Horned Fairy Love" here to try the effect of the soul dust produced by the dwarves. Tell me to wait until you wake up and ask for advice. β
"It seems...... No problem. Jiao Ming said, swallowing the food in his mouth to understand the problem, the transportation problem of the big one-horned fairy spirit must fall on him. But such a fragile little thing, I'm afraid it's more bothersome than transporting an eight-ring water system magic warrior. If the qi magic interferes with it, it will be even more troublesome if it is accidentally blown up.
"Ahem...... I mean, the underground aliens are fine, and the dwarves must be even better. There's obviously nothing suspenseful about this, so don't bother experimenting. β
Chunyu smiled evilly. "Hehe, I will convey your inconsistent words to Binglian word for word. β
"Eldest sister, how about we discuss?"
"It's useless to call it anything now. Chunyu shook his head solemnly, his expression seemed to be uncompromising, but the curvature of the corners of his mouth and eyebrows revealed the meaning of waiting for the price to be sold.
Jiao Ming thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "I'm sorry I just called you a real man?"
"I'm not that stingy. And I like this title a lot, and it's okay to shout more in the future. β
"Then you can't get used to eating this food, and you want to try my craft?"
"It's a nice addition. Chunyu nodded slowly.
At this moment, Jiao Ming was conflicted in his heart. Since it is confirmed that it is a 'head', it means that the direction of the negotiation is correct, but it seems inevitable to be blackmailed by the lion of the other party.
"Eldest sister, just say what you think, I'm really slow-minded, I can't guess. β
"You're too lazy to guess. Chunyu snorted and continued: "It's very simple, baby dear. β
Jiao Ming rolled his eyes suddenly, and then accidentally choked on his throat by a fish thorn, choked and swallowed for a while to no avail, and only used qi magic to solve it.
"Eldest sister, you have this conditionβthey are all boys. β
"You don't play sloppy. Two little birds are swaying all day long, when I'm blind, can I still see it? This is a marriage, you have to have a daughter to marry my son. β
"Why not the other way around, you marry a daughter to my son?"
"Who knows if I'll ever have another daughter. Chunyu shook his head, and his mood was obviously low.
As a magician, cultivating to improve your strength is naturally the first priority. And the ten months of pregnancy and the lactation period after that are all time costs that female magicians have to pay, which will inevitably affect their cultivation. As the heir of the family, Chunyu needs to have enough strength to protect both internally and externally, and he needs enough time to focus on cultivation.
On the premise of having an heir, regardless of the small probability of not having a magical talent, whether to have a second child is a matter worth weighing for the whole family. And the opinions and ideas of Chunyu as a mother, although they are not completely ignored, will not be particularly valued. Even Chunyu himself has to consider this issue from the perspective of the heir of the family, and inner contradictions are inevitable.
In contrast, it has to be said that it is obviously much more convenient for men. For example, Jiao Ming can also take the opportunity to open up new land.
"The twisted melon is not sweet, and you don't want them to fight every day in the future. I promise you that I will create opportunities for them to get along, but I can't promise you to force them to get married. β
"That's not what you have to talk about?"
"We're going to be reasonable. β
"Crazy people have mentioned the saying in your hometown, that is, don't reason with women, especially a mother, haven't you heard of this sentence?"
Jiao Ming groaned for a while, but he straightened up and continued to eat. "I'd better run my legs. β
At this moment, it was Chunyu who immediately changed his attitude. "Okay, okay, it's okay with the promise you just made. That's it. β
Jiao Ming smiled secretly in his heart and raised his palm. The spring rain swept up unwillingly, making a very crisp sound. Then Jiao Ming couldn't pick up the bowl to eat for a while. However, although the two negotiated, it backfired, and Jiao Ming still couldn't save this trouble.
But at the end of dinner, after the returning Binglian received a negative answer, she pulled Jiao Ming to a secluded place and explained the deeper reason for this screening experiment.
Because of the ability to communicate with earth-based magical mediums, its soul perspective is enhanced. Only then did I realize that the rune tattoos on the dwarves and the runes on the flesh wings of the gods' pet beasts were absorbing the dust of special souls very slightly, and the form was very similar to the initial work of shaping the big one-horned fairy spirit.
Hearing this, the soundproof barrier controlled by Jiao Ming shook for a while, and the only thought in his heart was that there was really no free lunch in the world, and the signal had to be paid.
"Are you sure?"
"Can't be wrong, and I just corresponded with Xiao Shi. She observed this last summer. It's just that these soul dust are very small, and they come and go, so it's just a matter of mentioning it, and I don't pay attention to it. β
Jiao Ming recalled for a moment, and then remembered that Xiao Shi had indeed said something like this: In addition to the water and qi system, the flesh wing rune also had a slight fluctuation in the earth system. And on this basis, he further guessed, Jiao Ming reluctantly said in a steady voice:
"First of all, is there any harm in collecting soul dust through runes like this?"
"After all, it's never seen before, and it's impossible to know for sure. Ice Lotus shook her head.
"Since the source of the rune is the 'thing' called Chaya, then the place where these soul dust goes is naturally it, do you think it will be similar to our big one-horned fairy spirit?"
"If I could see it in person, I would be able to tell the difference. But now it can only be used as a conjecture, and of course it is the most likely one. Binglian had obviously had a similar guess. "And did you know? The dwarves are divided into many tribes according to the color of the runes of the flesh wings of the gods' pet beasts. β
"Spring Rain told me. Jiao Ming nodded, and then suddenly his eyes widened. "Is it possible that every tribe has a presence like 'Jaya'? β
"That's exactly what I suspected, but I don't want to ask directly. In addition, these tribes are of different sizes, so I even suspect that this is precisely because of the strength and weakness of the 'charya' behind them. Then this is likely to be a demonstration of the different stages of a road to becoming stronger. β
Jiao Ming took a moment to digest this information, and then said slowly: "It's a reasonable conjecture, but in this case, it seems that we shouldn't conduct screenings and do magic experiments, this is simply asking for trouble." If you attract a powerful monster in an unknown state, it will be completely finished. β
"I thought I could take a chance. On the one hand, our experiments may not have an impact on the process by which the runes collect special soul dust. In addition, even if there is a scramble effect, as long as the 'quantity' is small enough, the other party may not notice it. It's as if we often ignore being bitten by a mosquito. β
"Research in my hometown has shown that mosquito saliva not only contains many infectious disease pathogens, but also has an anesthetic effect......"
"Raise the bar, isn't it?" Binglian gently patted Jiao Ming's big arm.
"You've got to make a better reason. Jiao Ming said solemnly with a serious expression.
"I have a hunch ......"
"This doesn't work, I don't believe in proportionality or sixth sense. β
"It's not that kind, it's very real, it's like a voice ......" Ice Lotus tried to explain it in a different way, but it only made the situation worse.
Jiao Ming was ill, of course, he was particularly sensitive to this 'statement', and his voice suddenly raised an octave: "Auditory hallucinations?!"
"Not auditory hallucinations, of course, butβwell, the language is not clear. In short, there is a feeling that this experiment will bring us great benefits. β
"It's simply auditory hallucinations and conjectures, a precursor to mental illness. You may have been mentally stressed lately, or have missed our son. No, I'll have to do some counseling with you. Otherwise, like me, how can you split into a god-like personality?"
