Chapter 131: Natural Bird Divination
Tatsuno carefully examined the ancient Poké Ball, hoping to find some hidden traps on it, so that he wouldn't have to destroy the strange Poké Ball to set the Nine-Tails free. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Tatsuno, what he is most afraid of is that this Poke Ball is a "disposable" item, as long as the elf is subdued, it will not let the elf get free.
Happily, the original owner of the Nine-Tails was not as ruthless as Tatsuno imagined, and this Poke Ball really had a hidden mechanism.
It turns out that the circles around the Poké Ball button can be rotated, and Tatsuno tries to rotate it, but these circles seem to be a combination lock, and only the correct password will work.
Fortunately, this combination lock only has three sets of numbers, so it is not difficult to crack it without knowing the password. Just as Tatsuno was about to try to crack it, the Nine-Tails suddenly reported a set of numbers to Tatsuno. Tatsuno suspiciously rotated according to the number provided by the Nine-Tails, and the pattern lock was actually opened.
The moment the pattern lock was opened, the restraints on the Nine-Tails disappeared. Nine-Tails, who felt that he had regained his freedom, was slightly stunned, and then tears flowed from the corners of its eyes. It turned out that the set of numbers that Nine-Tails had just told Tatsuno was the day Nine-Tails was born, but I didn't expect its owner to apply this day here.
The Poké Ball incident reminded Nine-Tails of its master again, but it understood that after such a long time, its master was long gone, and it was about to start a new life.
After obtaining the Nine-Tails' consent, Tatsuno put the Poké Ball into the system warehouse, such a strange thing is worth studying.
The Nine-Tails, who had been freed, thanked Tatsuno and the others, and then turned and walked towards the depths of the Bowl Mountain.
Tatsuno originally wanted to introduce Xiao Gang to the Nine-Tails, but thinking that Xiao Gang just looked very similar to the original owner of the Nine-Tails, and now that the Nine-Tails had been free, he didn't want to live in the memories of the past anymore, so Tatsuno didn't say this sentence in the end.
Nine-Tails had already left, but Nazi and Meow Meow were lost in thought.
"Tatsuno, the Nine-Tails, it can live for a thousand years, so it has to face the grief of its master's death alone, do you think our elves will do the same! Or how sad it would be for the elves to leave before we did. ”
"Boss, will you meow to death first, then I will die of sadness."
Tatsuno knocked Meow on the head, and this guy actually cursed him to die first.
In fact, the words of Nazi and Meow Meow also touched Tatsuno's weakness, he had been reluctant to think about this before, but Tatsuno understood that this was the real world and not a game, whether it was a human or an elf, there was a day when they died, this day was sooner or later, but there was a party to face in the end.
"It's sad for sure," Tatsuno said after a moment's thought, "but it's precisely because of this that we have to cherish every day with the elves, and if what you said really happens in the future, then both us and the elves will definitely want the other party to live happily." This is the reason why humans and elves are so closely connected. ”
Tatsuno didn't say much about this topic, this kind of thing can only be figured out when you experience it yourself, and it's useless to say it well now.
Tatsuno and the others continued their way over the Bowl Mountain towards the town of Kaji, and just as they passed a large canyon, the actions of a group of villagers caught their attention.
It's a very secluded location, with a stepped viewing platform artificially built at the bottom of the canyon, and many people sit on the steps and stare nervously at the other side of the canyon.
Curious, they found a villager and asked in a low voice, "May I ask what you guys are looking at?" ”
"We're waiting for the natural bird to predict the weather." The villager said with a reverent face.
"That's it?" Meow Meow was very puzzled, "Does predicting the weather need so many of you to pay attention to?" ”
Perhaps it was because Meow Meow could speak human language that surprised the villager, so he patiently said: "Our people here believe in natural bird divination very much, and the natural bird divination here is very accurate, and listening to natural bird divination has been a habit formed in our village hundreds of years ago." ”
I see.
Just as Meow was about to ask some more questions, the resident suddenly became excited, and he quickly returned to his place and sat down, his eyes motionless looking at the other side of the cliff.
Natural bird divination has begun!
Several natural birds flew out of a hole on the opposite side of the cliff, and these natural birds stopped on a platform, and a middle-aged woman stepped out of the cave and onto the platform.
"Everyone, today's divination is about to begin, so please get ready. Now let's divinate today's weather, what will the weather be like today? ”
After the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she looked at several natural birds, which looked at the sky and then waved their wings and gestured.
"What are you doing, meow?" Meowth couldn't help but ask.
"Shhhh The villager just now whispered.
"The flag of the elves? Why haven't I even heard of it! Meowth said, scratching her chin.
"It turns out that there are also things that you can't meow." Nazi said with a smile.
"You're not qualified to talk about me, don't you!"
At this time, the woman who was called the shrine maiden spoke: "Today is a sunny day, not a cloudy day, and even if it is cloudy, it will not rain, so there is no need to bring an umbrella. ”
"Wow~"
The villagers in the stands let out a very cooperative "wow", but no matter how you look at this reaction, it looks like you are watching a play.
The shrine maiden left after relaying the prophecy of the natural birds, and the natural birds returned to the cave, and this is the end of today's divination.
"Uncle, it's over so easily?"
"Of course, if nothing big happens, the natural bird will only predict the weather."
"So did the natural birds here predict any major events?" Meowth asked.
"Of course, the biggest thing is that there is going to be a big flood, but you have to ask the shrine maiden herself for the details of this matter, and it has always been the shrine maiden who has been in charge of communicating with the natural birds." The villager finished and left.
Tatsuno and the others glanced at each other, and finally decided to go to the shrine maiden to ask for clarification. It's not that Tatsuno is too curious, it's really that the legend about natural birds is too curious. Many people have long believed that natural birds often stand still and really look at the past and the future, and they think that the predictions made by natural birds are very accurate.
Tatsuno hadn't been in contact with a little elf like a natural bird before, so this time I just went to ask for an understanding.
Miss Kiko, the shrine maiden, received Tatsuno very warmly, and said with a smile about the natural bird prophecy that Tatsuno asked: "The reason why people here develop the habit of listening to natural birds for divination every day is because the natural bird predicted that there would be a great flood here a year ago, although the prophecy of the great flood has not yet come true, but the natural bird usually divination the weather and the like is still very accurate." ”
Miss Kiko trusts these natural birds very much, but she still says to Tatsuno and the others, "As a shrine maiden, I have always communicated with natural birds. They told me that divination is a source of courage, that divination may or may not be accurate, but that those who rely only on divination will be led by the nose. Everyone's life is determined by themselves. ”
"It makes sense, but aren't you still being led by the nose by divination in what you're doing now?" Meow Meow asked, puzzled.
Muzi sighed, "This is also something that cannot be helped, the prophecy of the Great Flood a hundred years ago has become a sharp sword hanging over the head of every villager, and the villagers have been living on the divination of natural birds for many years, as long as the prophecy of the Great Flood is not fulfilled one day, this situation will not change." Now that I'm old, I hope that this prophecy that has bound the villagers for a hundred years will come to an end in the hands of the next shrine maiden, so that everyone can live their own lives. ”
In fact, Muzi still has one thing to say, as the natural birds get older, their predictions are no longer as accurate as before, and perhaps by the time the next shrine maiden takes over, the people in the village will no longer believe in natural birds whose divination is inaccurate. This situation may have been an opportunity for the villagers to get rid of the trouble of divination, or they may have been hit by a flood because they no longer believed in natural birds, which Muzi could not have predicted.
"Since divination here may have been hit by floods, why don't you move out of this canyon? In that case, you don't have to worry about whether the prophecy is correct or not. Nazi asked curiously.
Kiko sighed, "The people here don't want to move out of here because they believe in the prophecies of natural birds too much, so they always think that there are natural birds that they can take refuge from before the flood comes. ”
"Miss Muzi, didn't you just say that everyone's life is decided by themselves, in that case, you can make those villagers move out of here through your own efforts."
Nazi's words made Muzi's eyes light up: "Little girl, you're right, it's ridiculous that I told you this truth before, but I didn't expect to be confused, no matter what the result is, I will definitely give it a try." ”
Muzi suddenly found his goal and became active again: "A few children, do you want me to let the natural bird help you also divination, it will be regarded as a game." ”
"It's better not to do it, our future is better to choose by ourselves. It would be boring to know the outcome in advance. Tatsuno and Natsu said together.
Tatsuno and the others left Muzi's house, and the natural bird suddenly gestured to Muzi.
"What, you said that boy would be famous in the future? Hehe, it seems that you are really old, and you can divinate such a result. Muzi shook his head and smiled.
