Volume 1 Mountain Village 107: Say Goodbye Without Saying Goodbye

When the carriage merchant asked the people of the village to leave, they were naturally reluctant.

Someone asked, why are you in a hurry to leave after everyone had such a good time last night?

It was also suggested that Mr. Yoi should stay until the "day of the red star" arrived, as had been the case before—the former carriage merchants came the same day and left the same day.

Although he entered the village ahead of schedule this time, he couldn't break the rules and "leave early".

There are also those who reminisce about the welcome dinner the night before, licking their cracked lips, and they can't get enough of it.

How many times a year can they hold such a banquet?

It was precisely because of the early arrival of the carriage merchants that they were able to naturally mix the "rites to welcome spring" and the "banquet to welcome the newlyweds", in a form that was more complicated than every previous time, and the degree was more flamboyant and lively.

The arrival of strangers adds a lot of fun to the ordinary life of the residents of the mountain village and reduces the pressure on them to spend this Red Star Day.

Perhaps, in the future, they will expect each other to come early every Red Star Day - and each time it will be a different carriage merchant.

If this is the case, the frequency of the arrival of the carriage merchants will change over time...... No, it should be fixed on the day before the Red Star Day, and then everything will be the same as before, and there will be no obvious changes.

For Mr. Yo, how could ordinary people who were incapable of being able to get into the eyes of the minions of the empire?

In this place, he "doesn't know" anyone except the village guardian.

He eventually refused to be retained by everyone.

It also occurred to anyone that they could entrust a witch in this matter.

Isn't this a big fuss and a big deal? That's what people think.

So, no one ran to inform the witch carriage merchant of his departure, and Mr. Yoi, isolated on the outskirts of the village, clapped his hands and let the carriage he had brought with him visible.

He looked back at the small mountain village behind him, and the villagers, after learning that there was no hope of leaving him, all returned to their daily lives, and no longer tried to talk to him or come to see him off.

Everyone came and went, and they all regarded him as an ordinary scenery outside the village, not worthy of their own attention.

The Imperial Serpent Spirit Feather should already be on its way back to the Caslano Empire...... He thought outwardly.

I don't know what kind of "miracle" I'm waiting for here for a long time.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly lit up - a small, snow-white figure faintly appeared in his field of vision, flying in his direction.

Seven up and eight down, the level of flight can be seen.

The small figure seemed to be hiding from some presence, always falling into the shadows of buildings or plants.

Sometimes, he plunged headlong into the bushes where all the leaves had fallen off in winter, and Mr. Yoi, who was a human, began to feel sorry for its feathers.

Was this guy abandoned by his relatives and parents just after he was born? Nobody, no, no bird to teach it how to fly?

However, birds should fly instinctively...... The kind that comes naturally to comprehension when you reach a certain age, just like when some extraordinarily gifted people perform miracles.

Mr. Yoi, who doesn't know much about species other than humans, thinks about it in a hurry.

When the other party flew closer, he realized that the reason why the bird flew so unsightly was because it carried a scabbard that seemed to exceed its own weight, and there was nothing inserted in the sheath, as if it was an "ornament" with no appearance.

The refinement is quite exquisite, Mr. Yoi couldn't help but comment in his heart.

In addition to this, the bird also had a bunch of blue strings wrapped around it, and it was not clear if it was intentional or accidentally trapped.

"Do you want me to help you untie it?" Out of a certain spirit that he himself could not understand, Mr. Yoi kindly asked.

Without a word, the bird walked around him, flew to the door of the carriage, stretched out its claws to grasp the metal handle attached to the door, and opened it with force.

Without an invitation from the owner of the carriage, he fell into the carriage and landed on the padded seat.

Then, in front of the stunned humans outside the carriage, the bird rolled on the seat, and the snow-white feathers suddenly turned into the hair of the beast, and its round body was suddenly elongated, and it became another creature that was very familiar to Mr. Yoi.

"Y-you-you?" The human pronounced three "you" words in a row, which was not enough to express the shock in his heart.

"Aren't you the witch's ......" he blinked, his mouth wide open, "the witch's pet?" The one called 'Six-Six'! ”

The chief of the mountain village had told him these things, and he was glad that he still remembered them, but on the other hand, he wished he hadn't heard of them.

Before he knew the relationship between the little beast in front of him and the witch, he also tried to use his ability as an "animal psychic" on it, in a vain attempt to wash away the little beast's sanity and let it be used for himself!

At that point, he should have realized that this creature was extraordinary.

However, at that moment an emu came running to disturb the situation, and he turned his attention away from the little beast.

Later, he watched the "interactive jokes" of the little beasts and the emus, and he couldn't realize the special things about the little beasts.

"My name is 'Fang Nuo'." Fang Nuo's voice rang in the human mind, it was the first time he had pronounced his name to a human.

“Fo…… no? ”

Humans could barely imitate his pronunciation, which was somewhat different from the pronunciation of Funno's imagined name...... It wasn't the pronunciation he remembered.

But just when he felt slightly deflated and annoyed, the human in his vision suddenly changed, as if he had thought of something terrible, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"Fangnuo?" He adjusted the pronunciation himself.

This is probably the excellence of human imagination, you can make up for anything you encounter, maybe the content of random imagination is very close to the facts?

With the pronunciation in hand, Fang Nuo was looking forward to showing him how to write their corresponding glyphs.

Human beings have different countries and different civilizations, and the languages they use may be different...... In this way, he still has a lot to learn.

But in the next second, Fang Nuo, who was satisfied with the human performance, sensed that something was wrong with the other party:

"Your eyebrows are going to be glued together!"

He screamed.

"Oh, new sentences." He was excited about his talent for learning and his ability to draw inferences—perhaps something to do with his experience "since I can remember," "Ahem, I've heard the elders talk about it before, but this is the first time I've spelled them together." ”

"Huh?" Fang Nuo, who felt the constant interaction between the spiritual power of the atmosphere and the spiritual power in his body, put away his joy and looked at the human who was staring at him without saying a word.

He began to wonder if he had frightened the other party.

Sure enough, can't monsters speak casually in front of humans? Even in the face of a ...... who has been saved by himself Monster hunters?

As his mind fluctuated, the silver-blue rope wrapped around his body immediately hung from his body, like tentacles with teeth and claws, threatening the people blocking the door of the carriage to act rashly.

"I don't know you can't understand my pronunciation." Fang Nuo didn't notice the movement of his equipment at all, and he looked at the human in front of him with a look of pity.

In the past, in the family, he learned the pronunciation of the most standard human common language, and no matter which human country he was facing now, they should be able to understand what they wanted to say.

If you don't understand it, either you are under a "curse" like a witch, or you ...... It's just that there is something wrong with IQ.

"Don't look at me like that." Mr. Yoi finally came to his senses and reached out to cover half of his face, which was still intact, "Are you ...... Despise me? ”

"It's compassion." Fang Nuo transmitted his own voice into the other party's mind.

"You don't have to be so intimate that every word is corrected."

Mr. Xiao waved his hand, and suddenly realized that the little beast in front of him didn't say a word in reality, and he was completely "talking to himself", and he couldn't help blushing for a while.

"Please," he reassured himself, "and no one else has seen it." ”

"Can I change my name?" Then, he leaned over to look at the little beast in the carriage, "Fang Nuo...... I have a 'friend' who used that name too, and it sounds weird. ”

Do normal people feel uncomfortable when they hear or say "a friend's name"?

Even if Fang Nuo wasn't a human and didn't understand humans, he could react to Mr. Yo's retort.

"That 'friend' of yours is a master-killing immortal beast?"

"No, he's a human." Mr. Yoi covered his ears and noticed that the voice was still ringing as usual, "Hey, you're even better than I thought." ”

"It's worthy of being able to kill black phosphorus alone...... Are you a demon beast or a fairy beast? "He's familiar with the class classification of the orcs.

Fang Nuo concealed that it was not his own power that captured Black Phosphorus:

"Don't try to crusade against me."

"I'm not going to do that." Mr. Xiao turned over and got on the mount in front of the carriage, "You who have incorporated the redundant spiritual power of the entire dark forest into your body are like a bomb, once you lose your life, who knows what kind of disaster will happen." ”

"Moreover, if the witch of the mountain village knows that I not only took her pet but also killed it, my life will probably come to an end." He told the "cruel" truth in a joking tone.

"You're a good man." Then, he said without hiding his praise.

"You're the first to see it."

Fang Nuo nodded triumphantly, but Mr. Night outside the carriage couldn't see his slight movements.

He originally wanted to take advantage of the other party's ability to understand his own language, and by the way, he would "ask for a seal".

But after thinking about it, if he did this, Mr. Xiao would lose consciousness for a while, and when he woke up, he found that his cultivation had decreased, and he would miss another opportunity to return to Huangxian Ridge.

If you want to do something, you have to weigh the situation.

"Were you born to be raised by the witches of the mountain village?" Mr. Night had already started the carriage, and Fang Nuo climbed up the window of the carriage, feeling the vibration beneath him, and suddenly realized that the car was not actually driven by biopower.

The "horse" in front of the carriage is not a living being, but some artificial "miracle creation".

Only by injecting spiritual power into it can the carriage operate, and ordinary people cannot control it.

Moreover, if it were not for the trained carriage merchants, they would not have known how to start it.

"I was picked up by her." Fang Nuo answered the question of the carriage merchant.

"So, you're planning to sneak back to the place she picked up while she's not looking?" Mr. Yoi's reasoning skills are not bad, and he instantly launched the purpose of the action of the "guest" in the carriage.

"That's interesting."

Fang Nuo stayed in the carriage, placing the things he had brought out of the witch's hut on his seats one by one, while the coachman's voice continued to come in from outside the carriage.

"She didn't even leave a mark on her possessions." The carriage merchant on the mount quipped, "Or did you not find out?" ”

"She couldn't understand my language, and every time I communicated with her, I would fall to the point where my throat was on fire."

Fang Nuo pulled out a ring from the scabbard - not the "signet ring" he had found in the hut earlier, but a ring that had been turned out of the witch's storage chest and was encrusted with an eye-like gem that felt similar to the witch's "Book of Seals".

It was black as a whole, as if it had been quenched, and was somewhat reddish in the light; If you put it in a dark place, it will glow with a hazy purple glow.

"It shouldn't be." As he was contemplating the items he had "exchanged" for his own "equivalent exchange", Mr. Yoi's voice floated in again, "When she met the Feathered Serpent, she could quickly hear the other party's voice, and the limit of that curse was not as exaggerated as the legend suggests. ”

"As long as the interlocutor has no ill will towards her, the communication between the two parties will go smoothly." Mr. Yoi told what he had discovered.

"Maybe......" Fang Nuo leaned against the window, watching the mountain village grow smaller and smaller in his field of vision until it disappeared.

There are still many mysteries about the village that remain unanswered...... The Witch's "Curse", the Flower Emperor, the Missing Beastmaster, the Dryad, the Eternal Tree, and the "Rui Beast", among others.

"Is that really a 'curse'?"

Thinking of the signet ring that the witch had collected, thinking of the Dream Awakening Grass mark on the ring, and thinking of the "Guardian Beast Seal" that she and Noka had discussed...... After leaving the mountain village this time, these puzzles may never be solved again.

It is also possible that it is not yourself who unravels them.

One day in the future, in the lair of the Yellow Immortals, or on a journey to explore the wider outside world, he will once again hear the story of the mountain village and learn the answers to the puzzles from some of the beings passing by.
