Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Siren

Ah Hu and Kapok turned around in unison, and the standing official looked to be the oldest of the cat-headed people present, not only because of the wrinkles on his face and the white and long beard on his chin, but also because the old official's clothes were neat and elegant, and his figure was much more proportionate compared to the king beside him.

The old official smiled at the king and said, "My lord, Xiang Gong, I thought that the king had wrongly blamed this little guest just now!" ”

The king looked puzzled: "What's wrong with this king?" Please tell Komei. ”

Xiang Gongzhi Ah Hu said: "The king just asked where the little guest came from, and the little guest replied that he came from a far away dwarf country, which shows that the dwarf country in the legendary northern Gobi is really something." And the little guest said that it was important to find the Transfiguration Mage because he liked it too much, and the Little Man Sect wanted him to be a human being, and it was reasonable for a child to have such love.

Great King, Xiang Gong, I have been carefully observing this little friend of the prince just now, his appearance, clothing, words and deeds, and extraordinary light skills are enough to show that he is the prince and grandson of the dwarf country. It is a gratifying thing for the prince to have such a friend, and when the prince succeeds to the throne of the Tang Kingdom in the future, this friendship is a friendly relationship between countries, just like the friendship between the king and the king of Songyin today.

Great, today is the great festival of my country, why don't you leave the prince and his foreign friends here to celebrate the Moon God Festival? We can take this opportunity to learn more about the secrets of the Dwarven Kingdom. ”

The old official's words were both decent and tempting, and the king was immediately persuaded, and he smiled and said, "It seems that this king has indeed misblamed the little guest, Kapok, you should leave your friend here for the holiday." Come and set up a table for the guests and the prince! ”

After a while, the waiter set up a low long wooden table and three chairs on one side of the stage, Kapok Zi and Wang Fan Ahu sat down in turn, and Zhen'er sat on the table in front of Wang Fan.

The waiter brought three plates of barbecue and three glasses of wine, and the large pieces of barbecue meat placed in the huge clay plate were enough for Wang Fan to eat for three days. The wine glass is also large, filled with yellow liquid, and the aroma of wine overflows. There is only a short knife in the plate, and there is no cutlery such as chopsticks or forks.

Kapok first took a knife and cut off a piece of barbecued meat, put it in his mouth, devoured it, and then picked up a large wine glass and drank a big mouthful.

Ah Hu cut off a few small pieces of his barbecue with a knife and looked at Zhen'er, Zhen'er understood, she moved to Ah Hu and picked up a piece of barbecue and ate it. Wang Fan learned to cut a small piece of roasted meat with a knife from kapok, and then put it in his mouth to chew and bite, the taste of the meat was as delicious as roast mutton, and then he picked up the wine glass and drank a small sip, the wine was a little spicy but very fragrant.

Kapok Zi saw that Ah Hu didn't make any movement, and asked, "Hey, Ah Hu, why don't you eat or drink?" ”

Ah Hu looked at Kapok Zi and said flatly: "I don't need it, what I need now is to find out where there is a mage who can transfigulate." ”

Kapok didn't think much about it, he turned his head and shouted, "Hey, Grandpa Xiang, do you know where there is a mage who can transform the Villain Sect back into a human?" ”

Zhen'er stopped eating meat when she heard Kapok's words, and she raised her head and stared at the old officials beside the king with expectant eyes.

At this time, the king and the officials around him also stared at Zhen'er.

Xiang Gong stood up and said with a solemn expression: "Lord Wang, little guest, although the ancestor of the villain sect and the ancestor of our people are the same ancestor, but because the ancestor of the villain sect did not listen to the words of the creator god and did a lot of bad things, the creator god was very angry and stipulated that the villain sect could never become a human, and could only hide in the woods and eat wild fruits as animals. Although this villain sect seems to be smarter than those villain sects in the rainbow forest, no matter what mage you find, you can't become a human. ”

Zhen'er was anxious when she heard this, and she shouted loudly desperately: "Hey, I'm not really a villain, it's your bad mage here who turned me like this, I can turn back into a human!" ”

Jane's shouts frightened Xiang Gong fell back into his seat, and the king and the other officials looked at it for a moment, and then screamed in unison, "Hmm......"

Immediately, because of the fright, their faces turned red and purple.

Kapok Zi took a sip of wine and said proudly to the king: "Father, I said that this villain sect can speak, you said that he was drunk, now believe it, right?" ”

The king pointed at Zhen'er with a flustered expression and said, "Kapok, tell me how this villain can speak?" ”

Kapok Zi turned his face to Ah Hu and said, "Ah Hu, your mouth is idle, you can talk to my father." ”

Ah Hu looked at the king and said with a serious expression at the right volume: "Your Majesty, Zhen'er was originally a princess, and not long ago two green-faced bad mages from your world turned her into such a form. ”

Xiang Gong looked at Zhen'er with straight eyes, and stammered, "The transformation technique of the green-faced mage? Xiang Gong raised a hand and touched his head and was silent for a moment, and his emotions suddenly became excited, "King, everyone, isn't there a record of Transfiguration in the book of the Heavenly King Crossing the Sea, oops, why don't you remember the history books you read more than fifty years ago?" It seems that it is easy to forget things after drinking too much! Lord Wang, little guest, that green-faced mage is not in our prairie but in Qizhou. If you want to find a mage who can transfigurate, you have to go to Chizhou, and those transfiguration mages live in caves on the high mountains of Chizhou! ”

Because he was too excited, he danced and foamed at his mouth when he spoke, like a wooden brain melon suddenly opened his mind, and fresh thoughts poured out like a river bursting its embankment.

Ah Hu raised his voice and asked, "May I ask the old man, what is the place in Qizhou?" ”

Xiang Gong's excited expression turned into a face full of surprise, and he looked at Ah Hu and said, "The little guest doesn't know where Qizhou is?" Chizhou is on the other side of the sea. But he couldn't cross the sea, because there was a kraken in the sea. ”

Ah Hu immediately asked, "What kind of animal is the Kraken?" ”

Xiang Gong was even more puzzled: "Haven't you ever heard of Qizhou and the Kraken in your dwarf country?" ”

Ah Hu replied in an affirmative tone: "No! Please answer what kind of animal the Kraken is and why it can stop us from going to Chizhou. ”

Xiang Gong stared at Ah Hu in a daze, and after a few seconds, he suddenly turned around and lowered his head and shouted to the king: "Great King! ”

At this time, the king was taking a wine glass and pouring a sip of wine into his mouth, and shouted to Xiang Gong, so startled that he "poof" and sprayed all the wine from his mouth on Xiang Gong's body.

Xiang Gong completely ignored his beautiful clothes and sprinkled wine, and continued to say loudly: "King, the guests don't know where the Kraken is in Qizhou!" And they say that they know very little about our world. Now I can conclude that they are like the king and the princess gods, they are from the heavens! Xiang Gong said vigorously with his fingers.

The king and the other officials had surprised looks on their faces. After a moment of silence, the king looked sideways at Ah Hu and asked, "Little guest, are you really from the outer world?" ”

Ah Hu looked at the king and replied succinctly, "Yes! ”

At this time, more and more people gathered on the grass outside the high platform, and the noisy laughter blew into the stage with the evening breeze, but Ah Hu's answer was short, clear and powerful, and everyone on the stage could hear it clearly.

The king stood up suddenly, his fat body touching a clay flask on the wine table, and the flask fell to the ground. A bang shook the Quartet.

The king covered his big belly with his right hand and said solemnly: "It turns out that it is a visitor from heaven!" No wonder tonight was weird. This king is polite! ”

The five officials who were sitting hurriedly stood up and saluted with Xiang Gong holding their stomachs with their hands.

Wang Fan thought that the king and his officials should stand up and salute him, so he stood up and gave a friendly smile to the king and the others.

Ah Hu then stood up and looked at the king and the others indifferently, and the kapok, who was already red-faced, stood up and patted Wang Fan's shoulder and said, "Hey, are you really from outside the sky?" But why do you look the same, the kings are different? ”

Wang Fan reached out and took off the hood, revealing the short black hair and two small ears on his head, because of the drink, his head was already sweating, and he was thinking about taking off the hood to cool off.

Wang Fan's actions were worth a thousand words, and no one would suspect that he and his companions were from the outer world.

The king raised his glass and said happily, "Today is really a great day for my fascination with the Tang Kingdom, everyone, take up your glasses, and toast to the heavenly visitors who will come to our steppe after the king and the princess gods!" ”

"Cheers!" All the officials took their glasses and drank them all.

Ah Niu and Kapok Zi followed and picked up the wine glass and took a sip, only Ah Hu and Zhen'er did not raise their glasses and drink.

Kapok asked quietly: "Ah Hu, why don't you drink yet?" ”

Ah Hu said expressionlessly: "I don't need it!" ”

Wang Fan pursed his lips and smiled without squeaking.

After toasting, the king staggered to his seat, and motioned for the group to take their seats.

Xiang Gong just sat down and stood up and said, "Extraterrestrial guest, you just asked what kind of animal the kraken is, and Xiang Gong can answer your question now." The Kraken is a kind of evil that grows in the sea, they make waves in the sea, no boat can resist, and we fishermen who go out to fish are eaten clean by them.

If the guests from outside the world have the divine power to get rid of the Kraken, the king of my family and the king of the song and the other three kings of the grassland will thank you again, and the king of the song will definitely send his fleet to send you to Qizhou to find the transformation mage. ”

Ah Hu thought for a moment and said: "If it is normal for there to be man-eating creatures in the sea, but it is against the laws of biology to eat the creatures that the ship eats together, I don't believe that there are really such sea creatures in your world!"

Xiang Gongdao: "It is precisely because of this that we call this thing in the sea a monster. However, I swear to the moon god that this kind of kraken does exist, because in the last twenty years, not only have many people who gone out to sea to fish disappear from the sea with people and boats, but also the two expeditions sent by the King of Songs have also disappeared after driving large ships to the open sea.

Ten years ago, the King of Songs set up an observatory on an island not far from the coast, and in the past ten years, the people on the island have observed dozens of Sirens on the outskirts of the island. The Kraken usually appears at night and on rainy days, and only its back is exposed, and the part that can be seen is the size of a large fishing boat, and it does not move very quickly, and often walks on the surface of the sea for a while before sinking into the sea. ”

"If it's just a creature, no matter what strange it is, I can destroy it as long as I can see it with my own eyes!" Ah Hu's tone was resolute.

The king's face was full of surprise, "Great! Early tomorrow morning, the king will send you to the city of the Heavenly King. The King of Songs will surely be happy to receive you, as he is also a descendant of aliens, and the King of Songs will send a ship to take you to his Demon Island to see the Sirens. ”
