Chapter 218: Black Water
The next day, during the day.
The first thing White Night did was to go out and wait for those strange townsfolk to appear.
The aborigines of this town can basically be divided into two types. One is a more ordinary townsfolk who act and speak like ordinary people most of the time. Only a few times will it behave abnormally.
On the other hand, most of the time it behaves very abnormally. Such townspeople are the more powerful ones here. Their status will be higher than that of ordinary townspeople. Ordinary townspeople saw that they were all trying to give way.
For example, the strange townspeople who go out on patrol at night, and the waiter at the hotel, are all examples.
Early in the morning, I came out to wait for those strange townspeople. According to the craftsman, wearing his mask allows him to blend in with these people and be seen as his own. You need to do this when you act at night, try it during the day and see if it works.
He sat on a bench on the side of the road, pretending to play with his phone for a while, and noticed a group of strange townsfolk walking out as if no one was around.
When the townsfolk saw them, they avoided them in fear.
White Night followed these people as if nothing had happened. When they walked to a more remote place, and there was no one else around, he directly put on a mask and followed the team.
He was bold enough to follow the last person and walked like this for a while, and these people really didn't notice anything wrong!
Does it really work?
Bai Ye was pleasantly surprised in his heart, the prop given by the craftsman was really a bit unusual.
He even tried to pat the person in front of him on the shoulder. As a result, the person in front just glanced back at random, saw his mask, made a little strange noise, didn't know what to say, and walked normally.
Now, Bai Ye can be 100% sure that this mask really has a very good camouflage effect. Bring this stuff with you and you'll be able to blend in!
He looked for an opportunity to leave the team and go back to prepare.
Finally waited until the evening.
Seeing the street lights go out, White Night jumped out of the room, waited for a group of strange townsfolk to arrive, and then put on a mask and blended in.
All in one go, without any flaws.
White Night walked slowly behind them, and found that these strange townsfolk tonight were different from before.
In the past, they were silent, and there was no sound of footsteps even when they walked. Today may be a bit of a pivotal matter, these people actually talk.
Their voices are still strange, and their speech is completely incomprehensible to humans. Bai Ye didn't pay attention at first, but as he listened, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be able to understand some of the words.
"The Lord ......"
"Important ......"
These words, little by little, appeared in Bai Ye's mind. Then he could understand more and more things, and finally he could even fully understand what these strange townsfolk were saying!
Bai Ye himself was taken aback, what was going on?
He thought about it for a while, and the biggest possibility was the effect of this mask.
Maybe after wearing this mask, not only will they be seen as the same kind of person, but they will even be able to understand their language slowly.
It's just that the craftsman didn't tell him that there was such a function at that time.
You can't really be one of them, will you?
Bai Ye thought wildly in his heart. However, he quickly pulled his thoughts back and began to get down to business.
Listening carefully to the voices of these strange townspeople, he listened to their plans.
Although these people are speaking a special language, Bai Ye can still feel that when they speak, their tone is very stiff, and their expression is extremely simple and direct.
"The sacrifice is ready?"
"Ready, Your Lord's request, you must do it with all your might."
"The things you need for the festival are also ready. Nothing is missing. ”
It seems that they are talking about festivals. The festival will be held tonight, and it will be officially held in a few moments.
"What about Blackwater? Didn't see the black water. ”
"Blackwater will go and get it later. This is the most important thing, and the blue precious plant cannot bloom without black water. ”
The Spooky townsfolk mentioned another word.
Blackwater.
This is the first time Bai Ye has heard of such a thing.
Without black water, the blue flowers can't bloom?
That's probably what the weird townsfolk say.
Bai Ye guessed in his heart that this so-called black water must be a very important thing...... Perhaps, the entire Blackwater Town is called this name, probably because of Blackwater.
I just don't know, what is this black water and what does it look like?
Bai Ye was guessing when suddenly the strange townspeople in front of him stopped.
"Let's go and prepare the sacrifice. The rest of you go and fetch the black water. ”
The strange townsman in the lead said in a stiff tone.
These people seemed to have a very big tacit understanding, and after the leader finished speaking, they immediately divided into two teams. The person in front walked directly in the direction of yesterday's sacrificial square. The people behind them shifted direction and moved in another direction that Bai Ye had never been.
Because Bai Ye followed the back of the team, he naturally followed to fetch black water.
It just so happened that he was also very interested in what exactly Blackwater was.
All the way to the place where the black water is taken. It is a small park with some lush vegetation in it. White Night found out that he had been here before, and during the day he had passed by here in search of clues.
But he saw it at the time. There's nothing special here, just ordinary plants.
How could Blackwater be in such a place?
Bai Ye felt strange in his heart.
The team entered a small park, in the center, in a place surrounded by all the plants, and there was a small spring.
In the spring, some black water flowed out.
This water feels extremely strange. It's black, but it gives you a very clear feeling, as if you can instantly purify your body and mind when you touch it.
Bai Ye silently looked at this black water, thinking in his heart that he didn't know how many important things he had missed in this town.
I have obviously passed by here before, and I have observed it through the perspective of data. It's a pity that this black water was not seen at all. The place around the plant was automatically ignored by him. And the data perspective didn't show any anomalies.
After all, the main role of the data perspective is to observe things like electronic instruments, not to observe these things.
Strange creatures can be seen from the perspective of data, but black water doesn't seem to be counted among the weird types of things.
Bai Ye looked at the strange townspeople in the lead, and took out a gray kettle from his waist. The kettle looked like it hadn't been washed for years, and it looked dirty on the surface, as if it was still a little rusty.
White Night suspects that this kettle may be a special prop, like his own mask. Otherwise, how could such an important black water be picked up with such an item?
The townsfolk picked up some black water from the kettle.
When no one is around, the black water seems to flow quietly, but in fact it is just an illusion, and it does not actually flow outside, to the land. Only when the spout of the kettle is placed on the spring will the black water really flow.
After receiving a pot of water, the townspeople looked at the water inside, and said with some concern, "No." It feels like there's not enough black water this time. ”
The others listened and stepped forward to watch with a little nervousness. There was indeed nothing in the kettle, but the spring no longer flowed, as if it had dried up.
"What should I do?"
"Forget it, it should be enough. Just go back and try it. ”
The townspeople mingled with each other. They waited a little longer, but there was still no black water flowing from the spring. They had no choice but to turn around and leave the place where they were sacrificial.
White Night followed all the way. After coming underground, after waiting for them all to enter, he took the opportunity to break away from the team and hide in the place where he was yesterday to avoid being discovered by these people.
Bai Ye quietly observed.
He knew that he could walk behind them. If he wanted to be like them, dancing strangely and making that inexplicable sound, he would definitely not be able to learn it. Maybe it will be exposed.
It's safer to stay on the sidelines and watch.
The spooky townsfolk change into colorful clothes and start dancing. A strange, high-pitched voice that does not resemble a human is emitted from his mouth.
At this time, Bai Ye was wearing a mask, and he still couldn't understand what they were singing.
It seems that this kind of singing that they use to summon the Lord and speak to them is not yet a language system.
At the call of the strange townspeople, the Venerable Lord condensed in mid-air and slowly appeared.
In order to avoid startling the snake, Bai Ye withdrew his gaze in advance and did not look at the Venerable Lord himself.
"Finally...... It's finally here. The Lord's voice was a little excited: "Blue Flower! ”
"Quick, pour black water on the trunk of the tree. The blue flowers are ready to bloom. ”
The Lord said to the strange townspeople.
The strange townsfolk did not dare to slack off, and immediately carried the kettle, ready to do what the lord said.
Bai Ye's heart is even more excited, it's finally here! Blue Flowers!
It took me so much time to finally see this plant!
In addition, he was also ready to fight. After the flowers bloom for a while, if you go to grab such an important thing by yourself, it is estimated that a big war is inevitable.
At this moment, the Venerable Lord suddenly let out an extremely angry voice.
"Bastard!"
Bai Ye was frightened, what's going on, could it be that he was discovered?
The Venerable Lord continued to roar: "Why is the quality of the black water not enough! Say! ”
The strange townsfolk were terrified, and most of them knelt on the ground with their heads bowed, not daring to lift up.
The voice of the townsfolk leader trembled a little: "Blackwater...... Blackwater Springs have only these outputs. ”
"Look for death!!" When the Lord heard this, he shouted angrily!
At that moment, Bai Ye felt a chill sweep through the entire cave!
This lord is so powerful!
Bai Ye was surprised in his heart, it was the first time he saw such a powerful strange creature, and his momentum was extraordinary.
I have tried my best to guess the strength of this lord, but looking at it like this, I may still underestimate the other party.
He looked over quietly, and the bodies of many strange townsfolk were trembling involuntarily. Apparently all freaked.
Strangely, even in this case, their faces were stiff and expressionless. It's like you're wearing a mask.
The Venerable Lord let out a thunderous roar: "I have delayed my great affairs, and I will make you pay!" ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand. Two strange townsfolk suddenly floated, suspended in the air as if their necks were being hanged. Their bodies were constantly struggling, like fish on the shore, and the pain was incomparable!
At this time, their puppet-like expressionless faces finally changed, and an extremely painful expression appeared. Just looking at the expressions on their faces, it seems that you can feel the extreme pain.
Next, the bodies of the two of them gradually blurred, disappeared, turned into two streams of water, and merged into the black water!
Bai Ye felt a chill in his heart, it turned out that the black water was made of this kind of thing?
It's disgusting!
The Venerable Lord actually used this kind of thing to give birth to the Blue Flower?
But it's not too outrageous to think about it, after all, ordinary plants also use manure to fertilize. It is estimated that the growth habits of the blue flower are similar to those of ordinary plants.
Bai Ye thought that this was the end of the matter, but in fact it was not over for the Venerable Lord.
When all the townsfolk trembled in fright, the Lord looked at the newly generated black water in his hand casually, sniffed it, and then threw it away in disgust.
"Garbage...... You garbage people can only bring garbage quality. It simply doesn't work. ”
"It has to be pure and clear black water."
"You bunch of shit...... Even if you refine all of you, you won't be able to make a quality black water. ”
After the lord finished speaking, he stood still and pinched his fingers, not knowing what he was counting. After a while, he spoke, "You have one last chance!" The day after tomorrow, the night after tomorrow is the last time for the blue flowers to bloom. If you miss this time, it will be ten years later. ”
"Give you one last chance to prepare. Next time, if the quality of the black water is not enough, I will let everyone in your entire town be buried together! ”
Listening to the lord's words, the townspeople all knelt on the ground, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Although I didn't find the blue flower today, fortunately, there is one last chance, and that is the day after tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow, you can continue to get the blue flower according to the plan.
However, what could have been done today was delayed for a while, which made him a little disappointed.
After all, if you get it a minute early, you will have a minute less risk.
When the lord had finished teaching the townspeople, his anger vanished.
The townsfolk were nervously discussing how to produce more black water.
Bai Ye left here early while they hadn't left yet.
He sneaked all the way back to the hotel. Today's hostel is still the same as usual, nothing unexpected happened.
White Night looks at the fully automatic turret, and the Agent does not appear like before. It seems to be a little cleaner for the time being.
He reviewed today's actions and gains, and made a brief summary of his actions. After it was over, nearly an hour had passed, and the white night was ready to rest.
