Chapter 857 , stubborn old wizard
Latest URL: According to the caravan owner’s description, Zhang Ze is basically sure that it is the Shimen they are looking for.
“Boss! What do you mean by black moon? When will it appear next time?” Zhang Ze hurriedly asked.
This is related to whether they can leave the Demon Realm, so they must ask clearly.
The caravan owner scratched his head and explained: “The black moon is a strange phenomenon in which the moon completely covers the sun.”
“This phenomenon is very rare, because in our world, the alternation of day and night is very regular, and there will be no sudden change from day to night…”
After hearing his description, Sky’s melancholy couldn’t help but said, “It sounds like this black moon is very similar to our lunar eclipse.”
Yiye Zhiqiu nodded and said, “It should be the same kind of astronomical phenomenon. But here, they gave the lunar eclipse another name.”
The caravan owner continued: “However, the appearance of the black moon is very irregular, and I don’t know when it will appear, but there is one person who can predict it, and that is my mother.”
“Your mother? Why can she predict the black moon?” Zhang Ze was a little curious. Could it be that the mother of the caravan boss is an astronomer?
“Hehe, she is the wizard of my tribe. When encountering some important events, everyone will ask her for divination.” Mentioning his mother, the caravan boss looked proud.
Because of his mother, their family is very respected in the tribe, and because of this, he is qualified to travel with a caravan.
“Then where is your mother? Can you take us to her?”
Zhang Ze was very happy. As long as they found the wizard and confirmed the exact time when the black moon would appear, they could go to Shimen.
“However, before finding the Shimen, we must first look for the Shimen key. Perhaps, the boss’ mother can help us divination the location of the key.”
Zhang Ze was full of hope.
“definitely no problem.”
The owner of the caravan readily agreed. He felt that building a good relationship with these heavenly people would be of great help to him in the future.
Xiaolan couldn’t help pulling her father aside and reminded him again: “Father, are you really going to bring these outsiders to our tribe? Grandma will definitely be angry!”
“Won’t.”
The boss laughed and said nonchalantly: “Although your grandma is old, she is not confused. As long as I explain things clearly, she will definitely not object, let alone get angry.”
The legends about heaven and man in the whole continent are the same: they are the creators of this continent and the ancestors of all human beings. They have provided a lot of help to human beings and let human beings gain a foothold in the world. Moreover, they also promised to take humans to the heavens in the future, so the heavenly beings are very popular here.
Like his mother, there are very few people who hate heaven and humans very much, and he doesn’t know the specific reasons. He just heard from his mother that when he was very young, heaven and humans visited their tribe. She was killed by the Heavenly Man, and she was the only one left to escape.
Later, she ran to this tribe alone, finally got married and had children, and settled down. That’s why she hated and feared heaven and man so much.
However, the owner of the caravan believed that grandma must have been ignorant when she was a child, and regarded the bandits from other tribes as heavenly beings. After all, those guys would dress up in strange shapes to conceal their identities, and it was normal for his mother to misunderstand.
Xiaolan’s persuasion was fruitless, and she stomped her feet in anger.
After discussing with the boss, everyone prepared to bid farewell to the Tinder Tribe and leave with the caravan.
The people of the Huorong Tribe were reluctant to leave, and tried their best to persuade Zhang Ze and the others to stay, but Zhang Ze and the others had made up their minds to go, and they did not dare to obstruct them, so they presented many gifts, and these things were temporarily placed on the caravan owner’s car .
The crowd slowly left under the eyes of the Huorong people, and disappeared at the end of the vast wilderness.
Sitting on the wooden wheeled cart, listening to the creaking sound of the wheels, Zhang Ze chatted with the boss who was driving the cart next to him.
The owner of the caravan was named Parker. He proudly told Zhang Ze that he had traveled to almost every corner of the mainland. Many tribes knew him, and the leaders of those tribes were very polite to him. After all, the caravan could bring them a lot Something that doesn’t exist in the tribe.
Zhang Feng curiously asked Parker, would he encounter robbers on the road?
Parker laughed and said, “The bandits will not attack me either, because I know their tribal leaders. If they attack me, let their tribal leaders know. They will go back and wait for punishment.”
The environment of this continent is very harsh, and it is difficult for a single human to survive, and no one can live without a tribe.
“Besides, I’m not a vegetarian myself, so if they want to trouble me, they have to weigh their abilities!”
As he said that, Parker stretched out his hand to a big stone weighing several tons on the side of the road, using his strength, the big stone actually floated up, stayed in mid-air for more than ten seconds, and then swung his arm, the stone It fell heavily on the other side.
Parker wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “This is my ability. I can move heavy objects. Although it is a waste of energy, it is enough to deal with those robbers.”
“Do people here have this magical ability?” Zhang Ze asked.
“It’s not.”
Parker shook his head, “Ordinary people probably only use their strength to run fast. Only a few people will awaken this ability. Like the chief of the Tinder tribe, you should have seen that he can use the power of fire.”
“As for my mother, her ability is divination… In short, people who can awaken special powers will receive special treatment in the tribe, because they are important forces to protect the tribe.”
After listening to Parker’s explanation, Zhang Ze roughly understood.
In this world, human beings have changed or evolved, their lifespan has greatly increased, and their bodies have become stronger. Occasionally, some people will awaken a special ability, which will allow them to gain a higher status in the tribe.
Parker’s tribe is named Qingshi, and it takes at least one day to reach the Qingshi tribe from the Tinder tribe.
In order not to arouse the suspicion and panic of the other party, Zhang Ze did not summon the Dark Dragon King, and everyone followed the caravan on their way.
After a day of exhaustion, they finally arrived at their destination, and everyone felt that their skeletons were about to fall apart.
“Look! The front is my tribe!”
Seeing that he was about to arrive home, Parker was full of joy. According to himself, his caravan would go out four times a year, and then use the exchanged things to subsidize the tribe and let the people in the tribe live a better life.
So Parker is very popular in his own tribe, even more popular than the village chief.
“Look, that tribe has appeared again.” The Dragon King pointed to the small village in front of him and said, “They must have seen us leave, so they showed their original shape.”
“This time, we went in with the caravan, and with Parker speaking for us, the Bluestone Tribe shouldn’t reject us anymore, right?” Moonlight Little Rabbit said.
“It’s hard to say.” Shaking his head without moving the knife, he said, “I think what Parker said before, I think the person who is in charge of the Qingshi tribe should be his mother, that is, the wizard.”
“The wizard who hid the village from us last time was probably the one who made the decision, so whether Parker can convince his mother is still unknown.”
Everyone nodded, and the analysis was correct without moving the knife. Now it depends on whether Parker can convince his mother.
The convoy stopped outside the tribe, and many people poured out from the village to meet them, but when they saw Zhang Ze and the others jumping off the carriage, their expressions changed drastically, and they fled back to their village screaming .
“Hey! What are you afraid of? They are angels!”
Parker was very strange, but when he thought about it carefully, he understood that it must be his wizard mother who publicized the terrible things about heaven and man to the public, which made everyone feel afraid of heaven and man.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Parker turned his head and said to Zhang Ze: “I’m sorry everyone, please wait here with the caravan first, and I will go in and explain to my mother.”
Zhang Ze nodded, and then Parker led Xiaolan into the village.
Just as he entered the tribe, he saw his mother tremblingly walking towards him with the support of Xiao Ke, and he hurried forward to say hello to his mother.
“You idiot! Who told you to lure the celestial beings to our tribe? Have you forgotten what I told you?”
As soon as the old wizard met him, he scolded his son furiously.
Parker explained: “Mother, what you said is old-fashioned. People all over the continent think that heavenly beings are good people. Only you think that heavenly beings are bad people. You should get rid of your prejudice.”
“I’m not prejudiced! Have you forgotten how my parents died? Those heavenly beings killed them like livestock!”
The more the old wizard spoke, the more excited she became, and she couldn’t help coughing violently. She had lived for more than six hundred years, and her body was already shattered.
Parker hurried forward to comfort his mother, although he thought his mother was too stubborn, but he respected his mother very much and didn’t want to make her angry, so he had to change his words: “Okay, okay, if you say that heaven and man are bad people, they are bad people, don’t regenerate Get angry, pay attention to your body.”
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and shouted to his daughter, “Xiao Lan, come and treat your grandma quickly.”
Xiaolan hurried forward, stretched out her hands to gently stroke her grandma’s chest and back, a gentle force penetrated from her palm, helping the old wizard to calm down, and the old wizard’s body gradually recovered.
She sighed a long time, and said earnestly: “Son, listen to mother’s advice, don’t deal with these heavenly beings, they will harm you!”
“But… I told them to come to you, and now I don’t let them in, how can I explain to them?”
Parker scratched his head in embarrassment. He is a businessman and pays attention to credit the most. If he breaks his promise, he will feel very uneasy.
“Compared with your life, what is credit?”
The old wizard glared at him and said a lesson: “Fortunately, you are still a businessman, can’t you tell which is more important?”
Parker nodded helplessly and said, “I see, I will go out and explain to them.”
Although he intends to help Zhang Ze and the others, his mother has the final say in this tribe, and if his mother disagrees, he has nothing to do.
At this time, Zhang Ze and others had been waiting outside the tribe. Seeing that Parker finally walked out of the village, everyone immediately surrounded him, but seeing his ugly face, everyone already guessed the result in their hearts.
“Your mother doesn’t agree?” Zhang Ze frowned and said, “We don’t have to enter the tribe, or even meet her, as long as she helps us predict when and where the moon will happen, as well as the location of Shimen.” It only needs to be where the key is, and we won’t force anything else.”
Parker sighed and shook his head, “I’m sorry, my friends, my mother said she didn’t want to meet you, let alone have anything to do with you. I tried to persuade her for a long time, but she refused to listen. I really can’t help. ”
The Dragon King couldn’t help shouting: “Your mother is too stubborn! We all said that we would not join the tribe or meet her, so we can’t just ask a few things?”
The giant **** pulled the Dragon King aside and said sincerely to Parker: “I hope you can help us persuade your mother again. We really have no malicious intentions. We just want to find what we are looking for, and then we will leave your world. Sorry to trouble you bro.”
“…Okay! I’ll try again.”
Parker had no choice but to nod, turned and returned to the village, and everyone continued to wait in the carriage.
As a result, they waited until night, and it was Parker’s daughter Xiaolan who came out to meet them. She conveyed the words of her grandma and father to everyone: “Everyone, my grandma said she can’t help you, please go away.” .”
“Where’s your father? Why doesn’t he come out to see us?” Xiao Niao Yiren asked curiously.
“My father… the horses and cars are exhausted, and he has already rested. Please go!” Xiaolan obviously didn’t want to say a word, so she turned around and went back to the village.
The Dragon King raised his foot and was about to follow in. Unexpectedly, the village disappeared in an instant, and the opponent activated the invisibility effect again.
“Bastard! Why don’t you do something like this!”
The Dragon King jumped angrily and cursed.
“Dragon King, come back.”
Zhang Ze called the Dragon King back and said, “Something must have happened to Parker, otherwise he would definitely come out to see us.”
“And you see, the caravan’s goods are all outside, and he can’t leave them alone. I don’t think we should go in again. I’m afraid there will be no results if we go in.”
Everyone sighed, the situation in front of them is indeed very difficult, the only way is to wait, waiting for the other party to change their minds.
Parker’s carriage stopped in place, Zhang Ze and others didn’t touch anything on it, and then they moved to a place several hundred meters away from the tribe and set up camp~www.readmtl.com~ decided to settle down here temporarily.
After all, the only ones who have clues about Shimen are the old wizards in this tribe. Instead of running around, they should stay here and look for opportunities to clear up the other party’s misunderstanding, and maybe make the other party change their minds.
The people in the Qingshi tribe have been observing the movements of Zhang Ze and others, seeing that they did not move the caravan’s belongings, but moved to a place hundreds of meters away to settle down, and everyone discussed in low voices.
Parker stood in the crowd and said to his mother: “Look, mother, these celestial beings are completely different from the celestial beings you met when you were young. They didn’t rob my caravan’s property, and they didn’t rush into our tribe. I think they are very polite and will not do anything harmful to the world, I hope you can reconsider.”
“Think about what?”
The old wizard glared, and said angrily: “What I have to think about is how to protect my tribe and your safety! These days people are just pretending to show us, so I won’t be fooled by them!”
After finishing speaking, she let Xiao Lan and Xiao Ke help her back to her residence, and she never saw anyone again. Mobile phone users please browse and read, palm reading is more convenient.
