Chapter Seventy-Two: The Origin
Liu Wu thought for a while and asked, "Eagle, do you know the origin of witches?" ”
The eagle frowned, pondered for a while, and said, "Witch origin? I've heard that the Witch Clan has been holding some treasure all along, but it seems to have been lost in the Battle of the Seals. I guess that's what you call the origin of witches. ”
Liu Wu then asked, "It should be." Do you know what happened to this treasure when it was lost? ”
The eagle sat on the edge of the bed, and after a while he recalled, "I don't know." However, I had heard that witches had a natural connection to the treasure. ”
Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look at Lin Nian, and Lin Nian replied, "I've never heard my family mention it. ”
The eagle pointed at Lin Nian and asked, "This is the descendant of the witch clan?" ”
Lin Nian nodded and replied, "That's right. ”
The eagle sniffed with his nose and said, "Indeed. You smell of witches, but the smell is very thin, far less intense than this one's. ”
With that, he pointed his finger at Millie.
Liu Wu told the eagle the news he had received from the King of Beasts. Only then did the eagle suddenly realize.
He said, "Oh~ No wonder, but then again, I do think of something about that treasure, which is what you call the origin of witches. ”
Liu Wu asked, "What's the matter?" Just say it. ”
The eagle continued, "In ancient times, the witch clan was friendly with the Kraken clan, and if this witch descendant has no clues, you might as well look for the Kraken clan. ”
Lin Nian then shook his head and said, "But the elders of my family haven't told me about the Kraken clan. ”
The eagle smiled and said, "I don't know about that." Maybe you're too young to let you know about these dangerous things, well, I should be done with all I know. Alex, are you going back with me? ”
The eagle's shiny big bald head faced Alex and asked.
Alex shook his head and said, "You go back first, I'm still in this world for a while." ”
Eagle nodded, although he and Alex were friends, but they didn't have the right to force decisions for each other.
He looked at Liu Wu, who was the strongest in the field, and knew that it was this young man who had the final say.
The eagle asked, "Now, can I go back?" ”
Liu Wu nodded and said, "Yes, you can go back." When I'm done with this matter, I'll visit your world. ”
The eagle smiled, emitted a puff of smoke around him, and vanished.
Liu Wu exhaled and said, "Okay, let's continue to explore, at least the information is clear enough now." Once we've explored the house, we're going to find the witch's origins. ”
The group left this room, and under the leadership of Liu Wu, they explored the remaining two rooms, but they gained nothing.
As they were about to go downstairs in the third-floor hallway, Lewis stopped everyone and said, "Wait a minute, I'll take a picture." It's good to go back. ”
After saying that, he took out his camera and filmed it.
After Lewis finished taking the photo, the group also returned to the hall on the first floor.
Liu Wu said, "Millie, Alex, now let's see if you can go out." ”
The two of them nodded, and each tried, but without exception found that they could not step out of the room, as if there was an invisible restriction on the door.
Seeing this situation, Liu Wu arranged: "Then come as you said before." Millie, Alex, if you can't get out, just wait for me to come back in the living room. Lewis, when I get out, I'm going to part ways with you. ”
Lewis walked over and shook Liu Wu's hand, and said, "Happy cooperation." How can I give you the honorarium for this mission? ”
Liu Wu waved his hand and said indifferently: "I don't want the honorarium, just give it to Lin Nian, after all, I still have to ask her for something." ”
After the discussion was settled, everyone went out except for Millie and Alex who stayed in the house. Lewis and Lin Yi went back to receive the honorarium, while Liu Wu followed Lin Nian to the ancestral house of the witch's family.
On the way, Lin Nian said: "To be honest, I haven't been back for a long time. I've been out there ever since I ran out at the age of fifteen. ”
Liu Wu raised his eyebrows: "You kid, it turned out to be a runaway, no wonder you don't know anything." Got into a fight with your family? ”
Lin Nian nodded: "Well, I don't fit in with their concepts. ”
Liu Wu asked curiously: "But speaking of which, aren't Lin Yi and you brother and sister?" He won't go back with you? ”
Lin Nian smiled: "I don't have a deep blood relationship with him, and it's not even an ancestral home. If strictly calculated, he is not actually a member of the witch family. ”
Liu Wu complained: "It seems that you are indeed a big family." Since you sneaked out, do you have any special feelings about going back this time? ”
Lin Nian shook his head: "No." This time it's a favor for you, and I'm curious about the origin of this legendary witch. ”
Because there were only two people, Liu Wu didn't hide it, and showed his strength a little.
Then, the two of them arrived quickly.
This also surprised Lin Nian. She said, "I really didn't expect you to be so powerful. ”
Liu Wu smiled indifferently: "Didn't you find out when you were on a mission before?" ”
Lin Nian gave a thumbs up and said, "Things that are beyond my understanding, no matter how many times I watch them, I will feel shocked." Right in front of us is our ancestral home. All the direct descendants of witches live there. ”
Liu Wu smiled slightly: "I'm a person who hates bloodline degradation very much. But now I can bear with it a little bit and not kill them all. ”
The two came to the edge of a cliff, and Lin Nian said: "There are dark clouds here all year round, and it has never been sunny. At least that's what I can remember. I saw that the castle on the edge of the cliff was not the ancestral house of the witch. ”
Liu Wu looked up and saw that a huge castle with a gray body occupied the entire cliff. There are even two gardens in front and back, which cover a very large area.
Liu Wu said: "Let's go, when I go in later, I will say that I am a merchant and have come to do business with your witch clan." ”
Lin Nian nodded and asked, "Witches like rubies. We think of rubies as a symbol of good luck, and you say you're a gem merchant. ”
After the two discussed, Lin Nian walked to the door of the castle with Liu Wu and rang the doorbell.
Ding dong!
The huge doorbell rang for the castle, and in a few moments a man who looked like a butler came and opened the door.
As soon as the old housekeeper saw Lin Nian, a look of joy instantly appeared on his face, and he asked, "Miss, is that you?" ”
Lin Nian smiled slightly: "Uncle Zhang, I didn't expect that you could still recognize me at a glance after I was away from home for so long." ”
Uncle Zhang smiled: "Don't you dare to forget, where have you been all these years?" Madame has been looking for you. ”
Lin Nian pursed his lips and said, "If she is really looking for me, I don't believe that she won't be able to find it for so many years." ”
Uncle Zhang smiled awkwardly, did not reply, but pointed at Liu Wu and asked, "Miss, who is this?" ”
Lin Nian replied, "This is a gem merchant I know who came to do business with us. ”
Uncle Zhang smiled with satisfaction: "The eldest lady has grown up and is sensible." ”
As he spoke, he wiped away his tears with emotion.
Lin Nian nodded: "Okay, take us in." ”
The eldest lady spoke, but Uncle Zhang didn't dare to delay, and directly introduced the two into the castle.
This castle is magnificent. The decoration is all in a Western style. Liu Wu remembered that when he had a witch party in the Ethereal Spirit World, he was also in the castle.
Is the matter of liking to live in a castle engraved in the bones of witches? Are witches so rich?
Uncle Zhang said at this time: "Miss, you and this gentleman sit first, and I will go up and call Madame." ”
After saying that, he went in a hurry.
Liu Wu sighed: "You witches are quite rich. Live in such a big castle. ”
Lin Nian smiled and said, "For a witch who knows magic, it is not difficult to earn some money in the world of ordinary people. ”
Liu Wu nodded, he also agreed with this. After all, they all have special powers, and you can make money by playing them casually.
He looked left and right, and then asked, "However, I thought your family was very crowded. ”
Lin Nian replied: "It's really a lot, it's just that the castle is too big to see." ”
Liu Wu shrugged: "Okay." ”
Soon, the lady in Uncle Zhang's mouth came down to the living room. As soon as he saw Lin Nian, he couldn't wait to come up and hug her, wiped away his tears and said, "My daughter, why don't you have any faith in you all these years." ”
Lin Nian broke free from her embrace and did not answer, but introduced Liu Wulai.
Lin Nian said: "This is Liu Wu, a gem merchant. ”
Mrs. Lin shook hands with Liu Wu and asked, "You must have been taking care of the little girl all these years, right?" The little girl is stubborn, it's really hard for you. ”
Liu Wu smiled and said, "It's not hard. I have a few things I want to discuss with you this time. ”
Mrs. Lin nodded, pulled Liu Wu and said, "Let's go up and sit down, go to the second floor." The second floor is dedicated to the meeting room. ”
Liu Wu readily agreed. The three of them walked to the second floor together.
On the wall next to the staircase, there are portraits of witches, according to Mrs. Lin, these are the ancestors of the witch tribe.
At the end of the stairs, Liu Wu saw the last portrait and raised his eyebrows.
Isn't this Millie???
What's going on?
He asked Mrs. Lin, "This witch ancestor, can you introduce me?" ”
Mrs. Lin was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "Sit down first, if you are interested, I can talk slowly." ”
The three of them came to the meeting room and took their seats.
Mrs. Lin began to speak: "I don't know if you know about the Battle of the Seals? It's an ancient secret. ”
Liu Wu replied: "I know a little bit about it." ”
Lady Lin continued, "The Battle of the Seals has led to the disconnection of the records of the witch tribe. When future generations want to record it, at most they can only trace it back to this ancestor, her name is Millie, and she is a powerful scarlet witch. ”
Liu Wu raised his eyebrows; "Witches are still classified?"
Mrs. Lin nodded: "Not really." Witches' practices are different and complex, and each witch's abilities are even different. However, it is precisely because of this that there is no genre of thought, just collectively referred to as witches. ”
Liu Wuming knows that Millie will absorb the power of others and can also transform. And Lin Nian can only divination, and other than that, he is no different from ordinary people.
When you think about it, witches are quite diverse.
Mrs. Lin said to Lin Nian, "When I finish talking with this gentleman, let's talk about your affairs." ”
Liu Wu is very satisfied, judging from Mrs. Lin's performance, the witch is still very hospitable. In the face of guests, even the daughter who has not seen her for many years should be put aside first.
Liu Wu said: "Hehe, in fact, I came this time mainly to learn about the history of the witch family. Especially the witch origin. ”
Mrs. Lin was stunned: "Aren't you a gem merchant?" ”
Liu Wu replied: "People can't have only one identity, I am a gem merchant, and I can also be other identities. ”
Mrs. Lin smiled indifferently, leaned back in the chair, and said, "Although you are a friend of the little girl." But I won't tell you the secrets of the witch clan so easily. ”
Liu Wu had also anticipated this a long time ago, and said, "If you can know the Seal War and the origin of the witch, do you think I know less?" ”
Mrs. Lin's eyes instantly gave birth to a sense of vigilance, and she asked, "Did the little girl tell you this?" ”
Liu Wu shook his head and said, "Lin Nianzhi doesn't know this, you know better than me." Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Since you're still polite, I'm not going to use violent methods for now. After all, reach out and don't hit the smiling person. ”
After speaking, he walked quickly in front of Mrs. Lin.
Mrs. Lin was shocked: "What do you want to do?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Wu's finger touched the door of her head.
In an instant, Mrs. Lin's eyes widened, she saw countless scenes of the destruction of the world, and heard the wails of countless living beings who died tragically.
At the same time, a force was felt, a force that represented pure destruction. This power is so powerful that people can't help but tremble and can't help but bow down.
And all of this comes from the young man in front of him.
Liu Wu withdrew his fingers, smiled and asked, "Feel it?" ”
Mrs. Lin suppressed her strong desire to vomit, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably, looking at Liu Wu's eyes full of fear.
The creature instinct warned her to flee immediately, or she would die here the next moment.
Liu Wu pressed her shoulder with a smile and said, "What are you running?" I will not kill you. Now that I've shown you around the rest of the world, shouldn't you tell me about the origin of witches in return? ”
Mrs. Lin was dressed in a big gulp, and it took a long time to come to her senses, and she stammered, "You, what do you want to hear?" I'll tell you all. ”
Liu Wu clapped his hands and sat down: "That's right." You say, what's going on? Where are witches coming from? ”
Madam Lin sorted out the confused thoughts just now because of shock, and said, "The witch origin was lost during the Battle of the Seals. ”
Liu Wu waved his hand: "I know this, tell me something I don't know." For example, after you lose it, do you know where it is? As far as I know, witches have a natural connection to the origin of witches. ”
Mrs. Lin hesitated for a moment, but finally succumbed to Liu Wu's terrifying power, after all, the feeling just now was too terrifying. In order to survive, I still said it obediently.
Lady Lin said, "I know where the witch originated. The reason why we haven't been able to find it all these years is because we don't have the ability. ”
