Doomsday Totem

Chapter 469 Fate
After leaving He Xin's house, Tie Zha came to the office of Sirius Investment Co., Ltd. and took Tie Ling who came with him.He was going to take her to find Old Blind and get some worm-like abilities.

Half an hour later, they walked through the shopping street, walked through a low-rise residential area, and came to the old street west of Fengsha Castle.It is evening now, and the sky is red without a cloud.The old and narrow streets are as lively as ever, with all kinds of stalls and hawkers crowded on both sides, standing beside the tricycles and yelling.

Tie Slag bought two portions of soybean milk and fried dough sticks, and gave one to Tie Ling.The latter looked at the orange fritters, hesitated for a few seconds, and then took a bite.Although she didn't know what it was, she believed in that man, no matter what he gave, she would eat it.

"Grrrrrrrrrr..."

The crispy fritters exude a strong aroma, and Tie Ling finished eating them in just a few bites.

"Is it delicious?" Tie Slag asked with a smile.

"Delicious." "Do you want more?" "Yes." After a brief exchange, Tie Slag bought two more fritters and asked Tie Ling to eat as much as he could.

Not long after, the two turned into an alley, walked forward for a while, and came to the old blind's divination house, lifted the dark shade cloth, and walked in.The light in the store was still dim, and one could barely see the figure sitting behind the low table.

"Who?" Sensing someone coming in, Lao Blind moved his eyes and raised his head to ask.The hollow eye sockets were dark and dark, with a somewhat mysterious color.

"Friend." Tie Slag replied.

"Friends?" Old Blind frowned, showing a stunned expression, and said, "What kind of friends? I don't have any friends, so go away."

Tie Slag turned his head and glanced at Tie Ling, who immediately held the handle of the knife and pulled it out with a "clang".

"My friend, if you have something to say, please speak up. Don't use knives and guns at every turn." Old Blind wrinkled his face, squeezed his eyes, nose and mouth together, and made an ugly smile.

Then, Tie Ling put away the machete, and sat side by side with Tie Slag at the low table.

"Elder, I came here this time to ask you for a favor." After sitting down, Tie Slag said seriously.

"Say it, the boy of the Norses family, the owner of the Warsong Harmonica, as long as the old corpse transporter can do it, he will do his best." Old Blind said cheerfully.

"I want to find a legendary ability for her." Tie Slag glanced at Tie Ling and said.

"What... what?" Old Blind asked dully, as if he didn't hear Tie Slag's words clearly.

"I want to find her the legendary ability of a female worm." Iron Slag calmly repeated.

"You...you..." Old Blind's face was flushed, and after holding back for a long time, he finally cried out, "You think the legendary ability is Chinese cabbage!" He was so excited that he spit out his saliva.Tie Slag quickly raised his hand, and used his sleeve to block the spittle that was pouring over his head and face.

"What's wrong?" Tie Slag asked after Old Blind Eye calmed down.

"In an average of 20.00 worms, only one has the legendary ability, and the probability is one in [-]." Old Blind calculated, "The female worms only accounted for [-]% of the total number of worms, which is only five. One-tenth, so..." He concluded, "Only one female worm with legendary ability will appear out of [-] worms. Even if you put all the worms together, there are not many. "

"And then?" Tie Slag asked.

"What then, it means nothing!" Old Blind couldn't help but shouted loudly.

"If you don't have it, you don't have it. Why are you so excited?" Tie Slag frowned and asked.

"Uh..." Realizing his gaffe, Old Blind immediately smiled coyly and said, "I'm getting old, so I'm bound to be a little confused."

Iron Slag rolled his eyes slightly, and asked again: "Aside from you, is there any other way?" If there is no legendary-level insect transformation ability, Tie Ling's gene chain is not stable enough to absorb more insect transformation ability.

"In this world, all worms with legendary abilities are predators. If you want to get them, you can only rely on..." Old Blind paused for a moment, and said solemnly, "Inheritance of iron and blood! "

In an instant, Tie Slag seemed to see the figure before the holy fire again, and the circles of his eyes couldn't help turning red.

Seemingly unaware of his changes, Old Blind talked to himself.

"Go west from here, at the other end of the old street, there is an old witch."

"She, like me, runs the underground business of Sandcastle."

"Go to her and see if there is any fate between them..." After finishing speaking, the old blind fell silent, as if he had fallen into a long thought, and sat there quietly without saying a word.

Seeing this, Tie Slag had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye, and left the divination hut with Tie Ling.

A moment later, when the two were walking on the bustling street, Tie Ling, who was half a body behind, suddenly caught up and asked him, "What does that person mean by inheritance?"

"I also... don't quite understand..." Iron Slag wriggled his lips and said with difficulty.He tried his best to control his emotions, not to let the tears flow out.Maybe one day, let her experience it by herself.

Thinking of Kezan made him feel a little depressed.Seeming to feel his sadness, Tie Ling didn't bother him any more, but followed him silently, walking towards the west of the old street.

"Fried noodles, millet porridge, egg pancakes..." "Cake rolls, cheese bread..." "Japanese-style sushi, salmon seaweed rolls..." "Sister, do you want accessories? This bow is very suitable for you." "Do you want a communicator? It's probably new from RC Company, and only six gold coins are needed." "Brother, do you want a black star? It's probably new. You only need five gold coins, and I'll give you two boxes of bullets .”

Pedestrians on the street come and go, and vendors at the stalls are yelling hard, and they are all busy with their lives.Iron Slag gradually recovered from the negative emotions, and looked forward.

This ancient street runs in a circular arc. He had heard from Hagrid before that hundreds of years ago, the old street had a nice name called "Ring City Road", which was the road between the city wall and the city.Today's Fengsha Castle was expanded on the basis of the old street.

The front section of the old street is the area close to Fengshabao Commercial Street, which is the old blind site of the "corpse transporter".And the middle section of the old street, the largest area, is the site of the "corpse hider" old cripple.As for the end of the old street, near the west gate of Fengsha Castle, the sparsely populated area is the territory of the old witch, the "corpse stitcher".

After walking for more than an hour, Tie Slag and Tie Ling came to the end of the old street.Compared with the front and middle sections, this place is quite deserted. There is only one vendor every ten meters, and there are a lot fewer pedestrians.After some inquiries, the two found the old witch's servant's house in a secluded alley.

Compared to the old blind place, this place can be regarded as luxurious.Colorful curtains were drawn outside the house, some flowers and plants were planted by the wall, and the surrounding area was kept clean.

Iron Slag took off his hood, lifted the white curtain, and walked in with Tie Ling.A few candles were lit in the room, and the fire was a little dim. An old woman was sitting cross-legged behind a low table in front of her, staring at him intently.

"Welcome, young man." The old woman said with a kind smile.Her face was thin and deeply wrinkled, but her body was a bit fat.

"Hello." Tie Slag nodded.

"Bring your girlfriend to tell your fortune?" The old woman raised her eyes, glanced at the iron bell behind him, then stared into his eyes, and asked.

"I didn't come here to tell the fortune, but I was asked by the old blind man." Tie Slag replied.

"Oh..." The old woman raised her head in a sudden realization, then stretched out her skinny hand and gestured towards the table, "Since it was the old fox who called you here, please sit down."

"Thank you." Tie Slag nodded in greeting, and then sat down opposite her with Tie Ling.

After sitting down, the old woman just watched him quietly, without speaking or moving.She looked at Iron Slag and made hairs all over his body. From the moment he entered the door, her eyes never left him.

"It's really like..." After a while, the old woman murmured absentmindedly, as if she was talking to herself.

"Elder, do you know me?" Tie Slag asked suspiciously.

"I've heard of you, young Norses." The old woman smiled mildly, and said, "You look very much like your brother."

"Hagrid?" Iron Slag asked subconsciously.

The old woman shook her head, but said nothing.Tie Slag soon understood that she was referring to the dead Raven...

Then, the old woman boiled a pot of boiling water, then took out several small wooden bowls and placed them on the low table, and took out some dark green tea-like plants from the bottles and jars, put them into the wooden bowls, and then Grind finely with a short wooden stick.After a while, when the water boiled, she poured it into the bowl, and a faint medicinal fragrance immediately permeated the hut.

"Try the licorice tea I planted." As she spoke, the old woman pushed two wooden bowls over.

Iron Slag picked it up and took a sip slowly.This licorice tea is slightly bitter in the mouth, but after drinking it, there is a sweet aftertaste.Although it is not as good as Bihaiqing tea, it is also very distinctive.

"Son, if you need anything, please tell me." It wasn't until then that the old woman asked about Tie Slag's purpose.

"I..." For a moment, Tie Slag didn't know how to speak.

"Son, no matter what your needs are, the old corpse maker will try his best." Seeing that he hesitated, the old woman said again.

"Thank you, but..." Tie Slag was silent for a long time before he said, "We have never met before, why did you..." They had just met, and the old lady was so kind to him that she had to let him He was suspicious.

Seeming to see through his thoughts, the old woman smiled slightly and said, "Young Norses, although we have never met, your ancestors have spent 300 years proving the loyalty and bravery of this surname, and won the recognition of the world. , won the title of 'Sword of the Boundless'." She raised her head, her deep gaze seemed to pass through walls and low houses, and landed on the stone tablet in the cemetery.

"And your elder brother also won our respect with his kindness and selflessness." Finally, the old woman looked at Tie Slag and said seriously.

"Thank you." Tie Slag stood up and bowed deeply to the old woman.Seeing this, Tie Ling silently stood up and saluted.

"Her name is Tie Ling, she is a good girl..." Tie Slag looked at Tie Ling, then turned to the old woman, and said solemnly: "She has always been strong and worked hard, so please guide her forward... ..." After finishing speaking, Tie Slag bowed again.

"Hmm..." The old woman stood up tremblingly, walked slowly to Tie Ling, stared at her face for a while, and then circled around her body to observe carefully.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

The more the old woman looked at it, the more delighted she was, she kept nodding her head, stretched out her hand and squeezed Tie Ling's arm, and couldn't help but let out a sound of admiration.She touched, pinched, and finally pinched Tie Ling's butt several times.Tie Ling stood upright, with straight eyes and an indifferent expression, as if she hadn't been affected in the slightest.

"He has a good foundation, a good heart, and a good-looking person. I accept this apprentice." After looking at it for a while, the old woman nodded in satisfaction and said.

Tie Ling turned to look at Tie Slag, with a questioning look in his eyes.Iron Slag returned his firm gaze and nodded vigorously.

"Disciple Tie Ling, I have met the master." After receiving Tie Slag's response, Tie Ling took a step back and knelt down towards the old woman.

"Okay, okay..." The old woman showed kindness, and stepped forward to support the iron bell.

In this way, Tie Ling temporarily left the team and stayed with the old witch.
