Chapter 265 Half-Sister
Tuifu didn't expect that Wuming would actually shout out when he shouted casually.
"No matter what the noise is, I'm on your shoulder. Your voice almost deafens me." Wuming stretched out his little finger and scratched his ears.
The sharp metal fingers rubbed against the smooth metal surface, making a harsh sound that made the husband's ears ring.
Tuifu was a little dizzy from the stimulation of the sound:
"Senior, you have no ears in your head."
"To be enlightening, what matters is the spiritual shock!" Wuming used strong words and answered loudly, as if speaking loudly would make sense.
After being yelled at by Wuming, Tuifu came back to his senses and was a little surprised when he saw Wuming: "Senior, are you here?"
He arrived when he was said to be nameless, and someone gave him a pillow when he was sleepy. Wouldn't this be the solution to the problem of ants?
"I've been here a long time ago." Wuming said.
"Come early?" Lani was surprised, "When?"
"I'll be here while you guys are sitting there having a heart-to-heart talk." Wuming replied.
Lani raised her head: "What did you say?"
"I see you have a good atmosphere, so I can't bear to disturb you." Wu Ming said calmly, "Do you need some business? For the sake of being acquainted, I can give you a 20% discount."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lani was angry.
"It's nothing, just saying it casually." Wuming said, "Even if you ask me to help you get married, I won't help you."
"You know the truth." Lani's voice was cold.
"After all, you gave me all your private money, and there are no runes anymore." Wuming said, "Without runes, how can we have a relationship. If you really want to have a relationship, remember to prepare a house, a car, and 800,000 runes. And 30% agency fee.”
Lani really didn't want to get married, but when she heard Wuming's words, she felt inexplicably angry.
The businessman, seeing that he had no money, immediately became indifferent.
So snobbish!
Lani rolled up her arms and sleeves, picked up a piece of cuckoo stone, and wanted to show Wuming what Princess Kalia was like.
"Senior is here to help. Peace is the most important thing. Harmony is the most important thing." Tuefu quickly smoothed things over.
Tuifu looked at Wuming and said pitifully: "Senior, there are still ants."
"Aren't those ants being ridden by the Knox people?" Wuming said, "I know the Knox people, and those people are not unreasonable. Just ask them to make way for you."
"Senior, this has nothing to do with strength." Tuifu closed his eyes and didn't want to look over there, "I just don't want to see those ants. It has nothing to do with the Knox people."
"Negotiate with your eyes closed?" Wuming said.
"With my eyes closed, my legs feel weak when I think about the ants getting closer and closer to me."
Wuming was helpless: "Okay, leave it to me."
Wu Ming took care of things and made Tui Fu feel at ease.
"Last time I came here, I helped you fight ants. This time, I come here to fight ants again."
Wuming clicked his tongue and shook his head as he lit a fireball to kill the ants remotely.
Only the ants were solved. The Knox man on top of the ants was knocked to the ground and rushed over with weapons in hand.
Fortunately, Lani has great reputation, Wuming is very eloquent, and her husband is quick to kneel down.
At any rate, they reached a friendly agreement with the Knox people, and there was no beating to the death - they just gave the husband a good beating and let them go.
"It's a big deal." Wuming sat on Tuifu's shoulder, stretched out his head, and looked at Lani on the other shoulder in a different light.
It was Lani who just came forward and explained her identity, and the attitude of the Knox people changed significantly.
"There are some connections, and our interests and enemies are the same." Lani said, "Do you know how these descendants of the Eternal City came to the ground? Do you know why there is a false starry sky above your head?"
"Because he wanted to resist the Supreme Will, he was hit by a meteor?" Wuming said.
"You actually know?" Lani said.
"Are you underestimating my connections?" Wuming smiled proudly, "I also have people I know in the Eternal City!"
Even though there is only one, there is still one!
Taking advantage of his pride, Wuming patted her husband on the neck and acted like an old man:
"You, you better be brave. Your goal should be to become a hero or a king. How can you be afraid of this kind of bug?"
While educating my husband, I continued to eliminate ants along the way.
The three of them had already reached a cave, where there were still many giant ants, so Wuming had no choice but to take action and use flames to purify everything.
The wife was obedient, saying yes again and again, her eyes full of admiration.
"Senior is mighty, with senior's help, he is invincible in the world!" Tuifu cheered, "No matter what kind of monster it is, it will not be the enemy of senior!"
"Praise me more, I like to hear it." Wuming laughed, and rode on the head of her husband, grabbing his hair, as if driving some kind of majestic vehicle, spinning around in circles, throwing fireballs in all directions.
One person and one puppet, one leading the way and one killing the enemy, it's like entering an uninhabited land.
Turning the corner, I met the eyes of several curse frogs.
Tuefu had become accustomed to the feeling of the cannon above his head, and he was killing so much that he shouted: "Senior, open fire!"
There was no fire on the top of his head, and Tuifu only felt an itch on his neck. Wuming had already run behind him and clung to him, stopping his head from showing up.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat." Wuming grabbed Tuifu's skin and urged him to retreat quickly.
Tuefu was still a little confused and didn't understand why Wuming, who had unlimited firepower, suddenly became mute. But after hearing Wuming's eager tone, he wisely turned around and ran away.
He has also been wandering around the border for a long time, and has developed the ability to stop curiously looking at danger when his companions prompt him to retreat.
In the past, Melina stayed in her body to warn him of danger. Tuifu, who has not yet understood the dangers of the border area, will overthink it: "Is there danger? Where is it?"
After being hit on the head by lobsters more than a dozen times and being slapped with garlic several times by ghosts, Tuifu has a long memory. In the future, when you meet someone you trust and let go, you will never delay.
He ran back in a hurry and didn't stop until the curse frog could no longer be seen.
He asked breathlessly: "Senior, what's wrong? Is there any danger?"
"Danger?" Lani looked at the door clearly from the side and sneered, "I think she was scared to death."
Tifu was so impressed by Lani, he recalled Wuming's words and deeds:
"It's true... how brave are you to speak?"
Wuming coughed twice: "Being brave does not mean being reckless. We need to have the courage to face our fears and the wisdom to avoid risks."
"How to avoid it with wisdom?" Tuifu asked a wise question.
"I told you, is it still called wisdom?" Wuming pretended to be a master who couldn't speak well, waiting for his disciple to become enlightened.
Tuifu said: "Isn't it the smartest and most time-saving way to directly ask for the results? Selvais once told me that reinventing the wheel will be a waste of time."
Faced with Tuifu's wise question, Wuming thought for a while:
"Then I'll give you a wise answer."
The husband is all ears.
"You go and kill the cursed frog." Wuming said.
"You call this risk aversion?" Lani first criticized Wu Ming from the side.
"At least I'm a lot safer." Wuming said calmly to Tuihu with a smile, "Look, it's the smartest thing to do if you ask others and leave it to others."
Wuming said to Lani and Tuifu:
"Being able to assign tasks is the wisdom that managers must have! Only in this way can we become bigger and stronger!"
"Thank you, I don't have to manage others." Lani, who was about to embark on the road of being a god alone, replied.
"There seems to be nothing I can do..." Tuifu thought, "Can I make the ashes more obedient?"
"It must be possible, of course it is possible!" Wuming said, "You have to be emotional and rational. Let your employees know the limitations of their abilities. Only by following the team and cooperating can they exert their own strength and achieve success. Personal value."
In the end it was Taifu who took action and killed the cursed frog. No matter what, Wuming was unwilling to get close to those things. He no longer even rode on Tuefu's head. Instead, he had to wait until Tuefu had explored the road in front before slowly walking over.
The euphemistically called strong one always comes out last.
Fortunately, there weren't many ants anymore, and Tuefu and others finally passed the ant nest smoothly.
But after passing the ant nest, the scene in front of them made both Tuifu and Wuming a little dumbfounded.
The endless scarlet lake can even be said to be a scarlet ocean.
"What is this?" Wuming was surprised, "A sea of crimson corruption? This looks richer than the Ionian swamps."
Wuming never expected that the pie he drew for the insects actually existed in another place at the junction. This Lake of Corruption with almost no edges can accommodate several times the number of Corruption Families.
"How do you live like this?" As the only mortal being present, Tuifu was the first to ask the question.
He looked at the bright red and scarlet ocean and did not dare to put his foot down.
"Go over, you won't die." Wuming said.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You must have died in the past." Lani retorted, "You are just a puppet, and corruption can drown you. This thing can corrode metal."
"As long as you have faith in the sun and a burning flame in your heart, you will not die!" Wuming believed, "You don't understand the power of faith at all."
"I am a magician, and I don't play with faith." Lani sneered at Wuming's fanaticism, "Do you think the power of corruption is so easy to solve? This is the power of external gods. Latarn was driven crazy at the beginning. .”
Listening to the constant arguments on both sides of his shoulders and ears, Taifu couldn't make up his mind whether he should cross the river or not.
He had no choice but to go back to the blessing and ask Melina.
Melina walked out of the void and was chewing a squid skewer.
She took a deep look at Lani on her husband's shoulder, and then drooped her eyelids:
"It's not enough to just listen to what others say and use your own brains without giving it a try. If Lake Corruption is deadly or not, you'll know if you try it."
The husband was moved and moved by Melina's empirical spirit, so he turned and walked towards the sea.
Brave hearts fill the hero's chest to visit the Almighty God.
My toes stepped into the scarlet mud, and the thick, wet lake water soaked my heels. Immediately afterwards, it was submerged in the calf and submerged in the thigh...
Finally, the dolls on the shoulders followed the head into the lake.
At the end of the day, Tuifu raised his hand and gave Melina a thumbs up on the shore.
In the end, my thumb didn’t even enter the lake.
After a while, a thick bubble appeared.
It was as if the god had burped.
After a while, Lani's little doll floated from the lake and returned to the shore.
"Where are those two?" Melina looked at the innocent husband disappearing into the sea. Chewing the squid tentacles, he asked Lani vaguely.
"It's gone." Lani shrugged. The four hands shrugged, as if sighing at the outcome of the two people, "Corruption is not only the flesh, but also general metals."
"Won't the wood corrode?" Melina looked at Lani's body.
"You are the wood." Lani rolled her eyes. "In order to carry my soul, the materials used are all rare materials. Of course they are not ordinary dolls."
Melina handed Lani a string of squid tentacles.
"I can't eat. How can I still eat with this body?" Lani said.
"Are you sure it's not because it's too big to eat?" Melina looked at the size comparison between Lani and Squidfoot. The squid's tentacles could probably tie up Lani.
"You can't even taste it after eating it." Lani dragged her cheeks, crossed her legs, and looked at the endless scarlet sea. "Both of us have become remnant souls...my half-sister."
"You look more like a sister now." Melina reminded the petite Lani.
Lani decided not to humiliate herself on this issue, looked at the lake of corruption, and changed the subject:
"I don't know when they will be resurrected..."
"Even if you are resurrected, you still can't find a way to get past." Melina said, "You should... just want to part ways with them here and go on your way alone, right?"
"There are always things that need to be faced alone." Lani stood up and walked towards the Lake of Corruption, "But this does not mean loneliness. I am very grateful for their company, which allowed me to have some memories and illuminate the darkness of loneliness when I was trekking alone. s future……"
Melina handed over another piece of squid roe, this time tearing it into smaller pieces.
Prick it with the sharp tip and poke it on Lani's face.
"I told you that you can't taste it -" Lani stretched out her hand to push the piece of meat, but she pushed it halfway and suddenly sniffed, a little surprised.
"I am also a remnant soul." Melina said, "The merchant sold food to the remnant soul. Otherwise, why do you think I would eat."
Melina fried the meat and poked Lani's face: "I'll give you a farewell."
Lani picked up the meat, bit into it gently, and chewed silently.
Although the doll's body has no digestive capacity and has to be spit out after chewing, the taste is enough.
Besides, when I was still young, I had to vomit when tasting wine, so I was quite used to it.
Lani chewed the squid feet carefully, wiped the corners of her mouth that were a little greasy, and raised a smile:
"It seems that I have one more beautiful memory."
Lani also turned and walked towards the sea.
In front of the Corruption Lake, Lani looked back at Melina: "Do you hate me?"
"I didn't understand it before," Melina said, "Now... my mother shouldn't object to your current path."
Melina also stood up to see Lani off. The scarlet horror scene actually had a hint of solemnity and sadness.
Lani walked in the lake and actually didn't sink to the bottom, as if a spirit was walking on the water with something holding it underneath.
There was indeed something holding on to it, and not only was it lying under the water, it even broke through the viscous liquid, with bubbles boiling around it, as if it wanted to break out of the water.
Wuming jumped out of the lake and laughed wildly:
"What am I talking about? As long as you have faith, you won't be afraid! See!"
Wuming looked around: "Lani? Where's Lani? Come and see the power of my faith!"
Wuming looked around and only saw Melina.
"Melina, have you seen Lani?" Wuming asked.
Melina finished the last bite of squid tentacles and pointed at Wuming with a bamboo stick: "The top of your head."
