Chapter 650: The Maid’s Choice
"They...what are they doing?"
The team carrying the coffin suddenly stopped - the villagers just parked the coffin at the entrance of the [Palace of the Dead].
Long Xiruo couldn't help but stop, but this wasn't what surprised her - to her surprise, the villagers were beginning to take off the large wooden barrels they were carrying, and then walked around to the left and right sides of the entrance.
When they pulled out the stoppers of the pools on both sides, black oil... oil began to flow out slowly.
The barrels were empty and the villagers were loading them quickly.
"This is a rare income for them." Father Alai explained at this time: "Every time they are buried, the villagers will bring containers and take away as much oil as possible."
"What can they use it for? If this thing is not processed..." Long Xiruo frowned instantly.
"Trade." Father Alai said: "Sell it to local merchants or rebels in exchange for some supplies. The rainforest is very large, and many villages can collect some oil sporadically. They have a centralized place, so Like a big bulk market.”
Long Xiruo shook his head and pondered: "It's so troublesome, why not just mine it?"
"There are naturally many reasons." Father Alai said helplessly: "Economic, technological, environmental factors, etc... There were domestic developers who wanted to develop, but in the end they failed. The other is political reasons. This country is very Most of the area is a rainforest area, and the government is divided into north and south, with constant civil strife. Moreover, no one knows how many indigenous residents live here, so it has been unable to develop. Only some small workshop owners rely on bulk The way to collect it is to make some small money. However, the villagers in this village can be considered restrained. They regard it as a gift from their ancestors, so they will only take it away every time they are buried... It's not so much taking. Are you talking about the gifts at the funeral?"
"As long as it's something that can be profitable." Long Xiruo said expressionlessly, "There will always be people who don't follow the rules, right?"
Father Alai didn't say anything, he just gently held the cross on his bracelet and muttered something silently.
But the task must be done after all. The rule is that only close relatives and up to three elderly people can lead the way and send the deceased to the ancestral land - not even the coffin can be brought in, and the body needs to be carried by close relatives.
At this time, under the command of the old man, the villagers solemnly moved Grandpa Sanshui's body out of the coffin. Ruan Ming had to walk the rest of the way by himself.
As for the old men who led the way, two of them had already entered the [Palace of the Dead] early. They were going to find Klaus, bring him out, and maintain the rules of their ancestors.
"You...are you really planning to carry the body in?" Long Xiruo quietly came to Luo Qiu's side and asked with a frown.
"Is there any problem? After all, I am [Ruan Ming] now." Boss Luo said with a slight smile.
"But..." Long Xiruo was startled, and then muttered in disbelief: "I didn't expect that you would actually touch such a thing... I remember that you seem to be a bit mysophobic."
"What is dirty?" Boss Luo said calmly: "If a person dies and is left with only an empty shell, it means there is nothing. Since it is nothing, there is no concept of dirty... It would be better Said, on the contrary, it is the most exquisite specimen."
——What kind of perverted serial murderer-like speech...
Long Xiruo couldn't help but sigh, rolled his eyes and said, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you."
…
"Wait a minute, the rule is that only close relatives and people who can guide you can go in. You can't go in!" An old man stood in front of Long Xiruo at this time and said righteously: "Although I am very grateful for your help along the way, but the rules It’s just the rules.”
There is really no place in the world that the Divine Dragon dare not enter - she, who has been fighting for at least eighteen hundred years, sneered, clenched her fists with her hands, and made a crunching sound, "What if I have to go in?"
——The main reason is that if you don’t go in, will the mission be considered completed?
"Then there is only one way." The old man's expression suddenly became stern... and the surrounding villagers also showed unkind looks.
The Shenzhou True Dragon Eye Guanba Road is preparing to cause a scene and vent its anger.
"You and Ruan Ming should get married!" the old man suddenly said: "As long as you are married, you can be regarded as the closest relatives of Sanshui. Although women will not come to the funeral, there is no rule not to allow them to come. Now is the new society. Yes, some things can be changed appropriately.”
——TM, are you so quick to give up? !
Shenzhou Zhenlong, who had never expected that the villagers would faint so quickly, stood stunned on the spot, as if his brain was shut down... What the hell is going on?
——Why is this kind of plot!
——Besides, when did that black-hearted woman, that woman with whom she was born to be an old enemy, become so good? It would be advantageous for me to allow such a [plot] to appear... Bah!
——Impossible, absolutely impossible, there must be some conspiracy...
——Combined or something...
--Um? Knot, combine?
"How about it, knot or not, just one sentence!" The old man from the village slammed his cane on the floor. "If it's knotted, you can go in. If it's not knotted, you can stay outside!"
I saw the Shenzhou True Dragon swallowing his saliva in an instant. As the biggest and most evil leader in China for eighteen hundred years, he was shocked by the momentum of a small village old man and was stunned. Wooden Chicken, "I..."
At this moment, [Ruan Ming] suddenly said: "Actually, don't be nervous, she is my sister."
Long Xiruo: "?"
Villager: "??"
Father Alai blinked.
…
"How should I put it?" [Ruan Ming] said with a complicated expression at this time: "Her name is actually Xiao Xi, and she is my sister who has been living outside for many years. Grandpa only told me about this matter recently..."
"But... but Sanshui's son Daqiang, I remember, died a long time ago? Because he... I didn't hear that he had a daughter?"
"From another village." [Ruan Ming] said sternly: "Because of the opposition from both sides of the family...my sister has been having a very bad life these years, eh."
"No wonder she has such a bad temper." The old man sighed, "She is also a poor child. I wrongly blamed her."
——I believe it now, please talk about logic, okay?
The cross-green root of the Chinese True Dragon has returned to the world again. Who wants to be the sister of this scumbag!
"Xiao Xi, come here!"
In the eyes of everyone, [Ruan Ming] was looking lovingly at this wild sister who had been living outside for many years... Unable to withstand the gazes from all around, Long Xiruo had a dark look on his face and reluctantly had to go to [ Ruan Ming]'s side.
"You fool me?"
The voice was extremely cold.
Boss Luo chuckled and said: "Maybe in the past life, we might have really been brothers and sisters... Of course, maybe not directly. And now, in name, it's almost the same, right, Xiao Xi."
Long Xiruo sneered disapprovingly: "Then you want my bloodline to be suppressed?"
"Be good and obey."
The boss touched his head.
How could the majestic Shenzhou True Dragon be injured by such a killing move? She grabbed the boss's wrist with her backhand and was about to break it. Unexpectedly, the boss launched the invincible attack, and only heard a kacha sound, and her wrist broke instead.
The Shenzhou True Dragon, who was in so much pain that he almost put on a mask of pain, held his broken wrist with a grimace on his face, and angrily walked into the [Palace of the Dead] without looking back.
…
The door has been closed.
In the huge space, when you look up, you can see coffins inserted on the wall... At this time, you can vaguely see the two villagers who entered first and led the way. They are standing under a hanging coffin, and there are climbing arrangements for the opening of the market. Climbing rope.
Should the deceased be placed in the coffin that was already hanging?
"Weird rules." Long Xiruo grunted, and then she exerted force with her palms, and the broken wrist was dismissed, "Do this to me... a bitch, a scumbag, a bastard!"
"Haven't you found Klaus yet?"
At this time, the voice of the third guide came from behind... Long Xiruo looked back and saw that the boss had indeed carried Grandpa Sanshui on his back and was walking with the third guide.
The moment their eyes met, Long Xiruo snorted and looked away.
"No, I walked around and couldn't find him." A guide under the empty coffin shouted back at this time: "Maybe he didn't come in at all, or he was hiding somewhere... Let's look for him later. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll close this place, and if he can’t come out, we can’t blame him.”
"That's all we have to do." The third guide nodded and immediately said: "Ruan Ming, send Sanshui up there. That will be his final destination."
"OK."
Seeing the unfamiliar boss carrying Mr. Sanshui on his back and climbing up the wall with a rope, Long Xiruo didn't bother to look more... just like his mother got angry when she saw her father and took one more look. , simply looked around the hall.
As a temple built by an ancient nation that spent countless manpower and material resources, this place may be a rare treasure trove for historians... There are indeed many carvings on the walls, which seem to be about the history of this nation.
She looked at the past with a look of relief, and soon discovered the so-called "King" of the ancient people mentioned by Father Alai.
"Two heads and four arms?"
In the relief, a man with two heads and four arms was seen ascending to a high place, while below were the worshiping people... In the relief, something strange seemed to be revealed all the time.
At this moment, the beep of the game system suddenly sounded.
She subconsciously looked at Boss Luo, and saw that the boss had already put Mr. Sanshui into the hanging coffin, wiped his sweat, and breathed out... as if he had finished aerobic exercise, with a look on his face. satisfy?
——[Distant Homecoming (1)] Mission completed.
——The mission [Returning to a Distant Home (2)] is automatically accepted.
——Task content: Because of your cheap skills, you accidentally broke the symbol of the royal power of the ancient nation. You will become a sinner and be sent to the Land of Ten Thousand Snakes to receive punishment. Please give up struggling, be sure to call yourself a sinner, and enter the land of snakes.
——There is no reward for successful mission, and the next series of missions will start.
——Punishment for mission failure: Granted the title of [Slut], which cannot be hidden or eliminated (What game are you still playing? Hurry up and cancel your account, so you don’t have to face punishment, Loser.)
"Black-hearted bitch..."
The fists held by the Divine Dragon were trembling... and they were shaking with anger.
"Ruan...Ruan Xiaoxi, right?" The third guide came over with a concerned look on his face, "Are you okay? Is this your first time here and you were scared? It's okay. Just tell me, he will take care of you. "
"where!"
"What?"
I saw the Shenzhou True Dragon with his head lowered and a calm voice, grabbing the collar of the old man who led the way with one hand, "Where is the symbol of royal power... Tell me quickly, or I will kill you!"
JOJO face.
…
…
…
…
"Is there really a road here that leads to your ancestral land?" Klaus looked at Ruan Ming dubiously - and what he saw in front of him was the mountainside mansion that the villagers regarded as an ancestral hall.
"Well, I discovered it accidentally when I was a child." Ruan Ming nodded, "I didn't even tell my grandpa, but it is indeed possible to reach the ancestral land."
Klaus mused: "You are going to the funeral soon."
"So, I can only tell you and let you go there, and then we will meet there." Ruan Ming said seriously: "I always feel that grandpa's death this time is not that simple, and I just found that the village chief led someone to use black Regarding the oil trade with the rebels... I heard that every time they are buried, the villagers will take out gifts from their ancestors from their ancestors. I didn’t expect it to be oil. But no one has been buried recently, so where did the village chief’s things come from? of?"
"So you suspect that the village chief took the lead in breaking the rules and quietly taking away the oil from the ancestral land?"
"I don't know." Ruan Ming shook his head: "I'm in a mess right now... To be honest, I'm not in the mood to care about this matter. Besides, even if the village chief really broke the rules secretly, it was only to improve the lives of the villagers, and I What can you say?”
"Then you still tell me about this secret passage?"
Ruan Ming smiled bitterly and said: "Probably, I just want to know an answer... You, you don't want to go. Anyway, I can rot in my stomach about this matter."
"I'll go." Klaus said suddenly, "I don't have anything to do anyway... Besides, I also care about the ancestral land you mentioned."
"Um?"
"How to get in?" Klaus asked directly at this time.
Ruan Ming said quickly: "When you go into the hall, the floor in the middle of the third row can be moved... However, it is best to wait until everyone is there. It should be quite difficult, after all, the priest is inside to give care to the children. body check……"
"You go back first." Klaus nodded: "I'll wait for you at the ancestral land."
"Be careful...remember, don't take the left path..."
…
…
…
…
"What are you going to do! Stop! Ruan Xiaoxi!"
The two guides shouted almost in unison.
Shouts of horror instantly sounded in the hall.
The third guide was seen helplessly covering his lower abdomen and curling up on the ground, wearing a mask of pain.
At the same time, Long Xiruo was standing under a huge relief, stretched out his hand, and actually tore apart a golden scepter in the hands of the two-headed and four-armed man on the relief. down.
"Stop! You can't touch! Stop it!"
The two guides were shocked and rushed towards the real dragon in China.
Then the Divine Dragon sneered and raised the golden scepter with both hands, "It's just this piece of shit, look! It's gone!"
After that, under the horrified gazes of the two guides, Long Xiruo pressed down the scepter with both hands, and at the same time raised his knees - breaking the sugar cane.
The response... continued.
The real dragon in China suddenly came to a halt... This piece of shit didn't break even after the first blow!
…
"...It's just this crap, look! It's gone!"
She instantly grasped the scepter and smashed it against Futu.
In an instant, one head of the statue of a man with two heads and four arms was destroyed, and the scepter finally broke into two pieces...
