I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Chapter 70: 069. Are you the devil?

  Chapter 70 069. Are you the devil?

  The pattern of the town of Low Water during the day is no different from other towns.

  Wearing a jacket that was incompatible with the surroundings, Lu Yi came to the first floor of the inn and lined up the coins in his hand.

  "Boss, hot two taels of wine and a bowl of fennel beans."

  He said casually.

  The insensitive boss last night, with a smile on his face, replied to Lu Kizuna.

   "There are no beans, only wine, and small fish to go with the wine, can you?"

"Row."

  Lu Yi gave the coin in his hand to the boss. This is the local coin. He took it back when he had breakfast in the morning and when he went to the town to inquire about the news.

  In the whole process, no one was harmed.

There was a jug of wine and a pile of dried fish on the table. Lu Yi saw that the cat in the store was rubbing his trouser legs. He picked up a small dried fish, put it in front of the cat, and sniffed it. , Maomao was very excited and made a scream.

  Then it watched Lu Kizumi retrieve the dried fish and ate it in one bite.

  Maomao was taken aback for a moment, his eyes seemed to burst into tears, yelling.

   "Are you the devil?"

  Drizzt threw a small dried fish in front of the cat, watched it happily eaten it, and vomited.

  "Boss, do you know anything about Haijia? I heard that they can make fishermen a good harvest?"

  Lu Jie asked while eating the dried fish.

  There is no one else in the shop, it is very deserted, and passersby are rarely seen in the town. Men usually go fishing early, and women, the elderly and children are all at home. This is a typical agricultural village and town situation.

   "The Hai Family? The Hai Family is the benefactor of Dry Water Town."

  The shop owner's eyes lit up.

   "The town of Dry Water was suffering from floods at the beginning. The tides of the sea often rushed into the village and destroyed the fields. Later, the Master Master with the gray tower passed by and suppressed the monsters in the sea, and finally it became a little less."

"But later, probably because the seal was loosened, the monster in the sea ran out again. In order to retaliate against the people in the town, it controlled the sea. From then on, there is no more tide here and no fish can be brought here. The people here can only Going deep into the ocean to fish in deep areas often happens."

"People at that time tried to offer sacrifices to the sea. From livestock to living people, sometimes it was calm and sometimes it was useless. The town of Dry Water was originally large, but it gradually declined and became what it is now. name."

  "But then, the people of the Hai family came here. They brought in the tide and brought the fish. When the school of fish is the largest, they can go directly to the beach to pick up the fish. Hey, that's the best scene."

  "Do you know that the people of the Hai family master a special dance called wave dance, praying for the tide, and guiding the fish. Every year during the fish tide season, they will hold a ritual, which can be lively at that time."

"But twenty years ago, the Hai family didn’t know why and didn’t hold the ceremony on time. At that time, everyone was in a panic and surrounded the Hai family’s mansion, but only heard strange noises coming from the house. There was no one. Respond."

   "Seven days later, the talents of the Hai family came out, re-held the ceremony, and everything returned to normal."

  The owner of the shop has nothing to hide and talks endlessly. It seems that this period of history is well known to everyone.

   "Haijia has a strange sound?"

  Drizzt took his pipe and lit the tobacco.

   "I don't know this anymore, I also heard people say back then."

  The shop owner smiled while wiping the table.

   "Why was the ceremony interrupted at the time? After that, is there anything unusual in your town?"

   Drizzt asked again.

   "I don't know, there is nothing unusual."

  The owner of the shop doesn’t seem to want to be specific about what happened 20 years ago.

  "Do you know the Black Queen?"

  Lu Zan suddenly spoke, causing Drizzt to sweat.

  The shop owner’s expression became weird. He stared directly at Luzhan, his eyes reminded Drizzt of the numb villagers in the village last night, and of the weird humanoid monster standing behind the stone statue.

  With only one sentence, the happy atmosphere in the store disappeared.

  The shop owner was silent for a moment, and then made an incomprehensible voice in a low, weird, and inhuman tone.

   "Ga 喽."

  The sound is like bubbles exploding in water, with a certain muddy texture.

  Drizzt felt his scalp numb, and the shop owner who had just introduced himself to the situation in Drywater, suddenly seemed like some kind of monster, and was close at hand.

  He took out the revolver, aimed at the shop owner, ready to pull the trigger at any time.

"etc."

  Lu Zan stopped Drizzt, who was already bloodshot in his eyes, and stood between the two.

   "You know the Black Queen, he is a common belief in this area, isn't it?"

   "Don't mention it, this, name."

  The shop owner squeezed out a few difficult words from deep in his throat, as if he was caught in his neck.

Drizzt noticed that the shopkeeper’s eyes were wide, and the popped eyeballs were like fishes. On his neck and wrists, the blue blood vessels swelled and spread under the skin, and the whole person was in an extreme tightness. status.

   "I see, let's continue talking about the Hai family."

   Lu Zan raised his hand and put on a pose that tried to reassure him.

The shop owner still maintained that tight appearance, but the fear in his eyes had faded a lot. After a few minutes, he completely became the original man, but he looked very tired, and sat back with his head drooping. Behind the counter, no matter how Lu Zin and Drizzt yelled, they ignored them.

   "The Black Queen seems to be a taboo term for the people living here, but this also confirms that the belief of the Black Queen does exist in this area, and even ordinary people know it."

  Lu Yi thought backward and came to a conclusion.

   "The connection between the Hai Family and the Black Queen does not seem to be simple, because if the Black Queen and the Hai Family are related, the boss will not simply say these things about the Hai Family."

  ". Indeed, if the Hai Family wants to conceal it deliberately, they should have the ability to keep the people in the town from mentioning the changes 20 years ago."

  Drizzt was undecided, he glanced at the boss who was curled up in the corner, and looked at Lu Zin.

  At this time, Lu Zan bent down, snatched the food from the cat's mouth that was eating the dried fish, and screamed at the cat.

  "Cats cannot eat salty food, their kidneys cannot break down salt."

  He put the dried fish into his mouth.

  "."

  Drizzt didn't know for a moment whether it was the shopkeeper who suddenly changed his face that was more terrifying, or the companion who robbed the cat and grabbed the dried fish was more noteworthy.

   "Why don't we ask that person."

  Lu Yi seriously put the remaining small fish into his pocket, and then pointed to the back of Drizzt.

  There stood a man in short clothes, with dark skin and a strong build. At first glance, he looked like a fisherman who often went out to sea to fish.

   "He has been standing there since just now."

  Drizzt looked at the man suspiciously.

  The man spoke immediately, speaking in the local dialect, even if there was a translation for a place of silence, it sounded a bit difficult.

  "You are the guests of the Hai Family, I have something to look for you."

   "My sister is the bride of the Hai family."
