I, Zhongli, Wander the World - Chapter 99
Apart from this sentence, Morax did not ask too much about his future.
He chatted with the two like an ordinary person, from the development of another world to daily interesting things, and when he heard interesting things, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Until the end, Zhongyuan Zhong also made a request to return to the correct time.
“I know this is a bit of a mystery. After all, strictly speaking, you have nothing to do with us…” The ochre-haired young man scratched his face a little embarrassedly, but still insisted, “So I just want to ask You tell us the way back, and we’ll figure out the rest.”
But Morax just told them it wasn’t time yet.
“According to your description, the opening of the crack should be at the right time and place. If the timing is not right, I will not be able to help you open the passage.” Morax said, “There is a future cause and effect between you and me, so It is reasonable for me to take care of you one or two on behalf of the future me. Why don’t you take this opportunity to enjoy the scenery of another world a thousand years ago, and when the time is ripe, it will not be too late to return.”
“Relax, in a world with time differences, the flow of time is not the same as usual. It won’t delay your ‘thesis’.”
In this way, Zhongyuan Zhong, the most anxious of the two, was also relieved.
However, Morax in front of him is not their husband, and they will not be allowed to stay here for long. Not long after, the mandrill who had jumped down the mountain to catch the dumplings left and returned.
“The environment of Xianjiadongtian has not been modified, and it is not suitable for human beings to live for a long time. I will take you to the human settlements and settle down for the time being.” In the end, Morax said.
Perhaps because of the protection from the Rock God, Mandrill’s attitude has eased a lot with the naked eye. Even though the expression on his face is still cold, at least the original cold aggression is no longer there.
The blue-haired little dumpling followed behind him and probed his brain.
This time, without the shelter of the bushes, Zhongyuan Zhong also finally saw it clearly.
It was a little girl with blue hair, chubby, with a pair of horns that were obviously not human-like, and her transparent purple eyes were watching them timidly.
“The human settlements under Lord Yanwang are now mainly in Guiliji.” The young immortal explained with a rare kindness, “Gan Yu is going to visit her mother recently, and she happened to be there.”
“But, Mr. Mandrill.” Osamu Dazai raised his hand and said, “I think this child seems to be afraid of us.”
Mandrill glanced at the human who asked the question, “Gan Yu grew up in the mountains since childhood, and has never seen any other human except his father in hundreds of years.”
Therefore, girls are naturally a little more afraid of Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Nakaya, who are pure human beings.
“Hey, that’s it.”
Well, a magical alien world. Even if it looks like a person, it cannot be measured by human common sense.
However, after actually embarking on the itinerary, the little girl’s attitude towards the two was slightly different.
Seeing Xiao Ganyu who was carefully holding the dew picked from the petals and handing it to Nakahara Chuya, Osamu Dazai let out an unwilling voice.
“Why!”
Along the way, Gan Yu is no longer so afraid of these two strange “human beings”, even in the face of Osamu Dazai’s ferocious expression, he can still whisper without feeling malicious: “There is a pure heart in Zhongyao. The smell…it smells good, I love it.”
Where does the smell of plants come from a big man in the Central Plains, Osamu Dazai found the key in an instant: “…It’s his God’s Eye, it must be!”
Zhongyuan Zhong also pushed back the dew that he finally collected to the little girl, and deliberately raised his chin to look at Osamu Dazai, “Ha, if you have the ability, you can also have a god’s eye?”
“Of course I will.” Osamu Dazai looked at him disdainfully, “but it definitely can’t be a ‘grass’ like Chuya.”
In Japanese, “Grass” also means laughing loudly. In addition, they actually learned a little bit of the Chinese language, and Zhongyuan Zhong also instantly slapped a stone and stood up, “You really have been laughing at me in your heart, right? !”
“I didn’t~”
Xiao Ganyu stared blankly at the two humans who suddenly made a noise, and then looked at the man next to him who closed his eyes and looked out of the way.
“…boring things, you don’t need to know.” Mandrill said.
It’s just that the voice that has been calm and unwavering all the time has brought a little relief in the end.
This time, because the journey is too long, they actually flew all the way on a variety of bird-shaped beasts. Those birds that may be called “Warcraft” are huge, and in just one day, they took them across many mountains and came to a vast plain.
A white beast with a height of two meters was standing there.
The snow-white hair is as elegant and soft as clouds, and it looks like a deer or a sheep, but the horns on the top of its head are not like any of the two. In careful comparison, it is more like the style of Xiao Ganyu around him.
So Dazai Zhi knew that this was Gan Yu’s mother.
“You are the human beings that Lord Rock King said.” I don’t know what method Morax used, but Kirin, who is far away in the return set, has heard about two human beings from another world in the future.” Take a rest at the return set these days, rest assured, people will accept you.”
Dazai Osamu said sharply: “Don’t people come here often?”
“yes.”
Qilin is obviously a gentle and talkative personality, knowing that people from two other worlds do not know about this world, he explained in detail: “Now this world is under the divided rule of the demon gods, and the humans living on the land are naturally also controlled by the demon gods. They are divided, although Lord Yan and Lord Chen don’t care about the people’s whereabouts, but other demon gods don’t.”
That’s why, when introducing the two humans, she subconsciously used the phrase “will accept you”.
“That’s it, thank you for clarifying your doubts.” Dazai Osamu nodded politely, thanked the man who brought them along the way, and formally bid farewell to the somewhat reluctant little Ganyu.
The buildings in Guiliji are like ordinary settlements, with houses made of wood or stone scattered on the plain, and the surrounding areas are flat farmland. As Qilin said, the people who returned to Liliji did not show a rude attitude even if they were curious about the rare outsiders, and accepted them quite kindly.
“This house will be allocated to you temporarily.”
The man called “Wenqu” led them to a vacant house, and before leaving, he added as if remembering something: “Oh, by the way, if it’s not necessary, try not to lock the door of the kitchen. “
kitchen?
Nakahara Nakaya, who remembered a certain story, turned his head to look at Osamu Dazai, and found that the black-haired youth beside him was also full of interest.
Looking at the sky, it was indeed time for dinner, and they walked to the kitchen almost immediately.
In the unlit kitchen, a round figure was busy beside the stove. With the spout of flames, the fire under the stove suddenly ignited, illuminating the round figure.
It was a creature that looked both like a red panda and a raccoon. Its short fat claws poured the ingredients into the pot and skillfully closed the lid before turning around to look at the two at the door. Come.
“This is your first meal here, so I thought about preparing it for you in advance.” The half-height little bear said with a smile, and he could see a little from the teddy bear-like face. of kindness.
“You are… Mr. Mark Hughes, right?” Zhongyuan Zhongyuan, who had long been full of affection for this demon **** who has been incarnated into the people, squatted down and carefully looked at the bear, “I’m sorry… “
Mark Hughes, who saw that the Central Plains was also moved, took the hand of the ochre-haired young man with a good temper and put it on his furry fat stomach, “If you are curious about the feel, you can touch it.”
Zhongyuan Zhongyao’s face was a little red after being pierced, and after touching it a little, he quickly withdrew his hand.
As the devil in charge of the fire, Mark Hughes’ meals are indeed delicious. The first night the two came to this world ended in such a warm fire.
After that, another month passed.
Guiliji lived a simple and fulfilling life a thousand years ago. Diligent people work every day, rushing for their family and future. Occasionally, gods traveled through the city to bring guidance or blessings to people.
Mark Hughes always appears in the kitchens of thousands of households to bring meals and reunion to people; Xianlin prefers to transform into a human body and experience people’s livelihood in the market; there is also a fairy named “Bronze Sparrow”. When he appears, he must order a grilled fish in a food shop, and chat with the boss next to him like a real mortal while eating.
It’s just that more immortals are busy, not to mention the rock gods and dust gods who are fighting in front of the front. Just as the mandrill they met on the first day said, the battle circle formed against the Demon God of Rock and the Demon God of Dust is shrinking, and signs of spatial instability appeared even near the originally peaceful Mount Ozang. Immortals and demons are at the forefront of the war, fighting for the land behind them.
“…It has been raining for several days.” Dazai Osamu said in a low voice, looking at the dim sky.
“According to Mr. Mark Hughes, all the dark clouds were raised from the clear water plain further north. It seems to be a monster named ‘Chi’.” Zhongyuan Zhong also looked up at the sky outside the window.
Dazai fell into a brief silence.
For a long time, just when Zhongyuan Zhong thought he was about to end this conversation, Dazai Osamu suddenly said, “Zhongya, I have a bad feeling.”
“……what?”
And just like what Dazai Osamu said was fulfilled, a few seconds later, a drum-like sound suddenly sounded in the distance.
It was a thunderous roar that came from the end of the horizon, as if the sky had been torn apart.
The two reacted almost in no particular order, ignoring the pouring rain outside, and rushed out in the rain.
This house is closer to the edge of the settlement, and outside is the flat farmland, so the line of sight can go directly to the end. And even through the heavy rain curtain, their good eyesight still allowed them to see the end clearly.
On the distant horizon, a line of white shadows that should not appear on the ground is rushing towards the Returning Set with boundless momentum.
That’s… a flood that wiped the entire set from the ground.
After all, the war of the demons has spread to the paradise-like return set.
