Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

Mugram woke up with a start.

His body was still a little sore, and the holes and weakness left by the corruption in his body made him very uncomfortable.

But he quickly remembered what happened before he fell into coma and sat up quickly.

Lani, Iggy, and Selvis dressed as a magic professor stood beside him, surrounding him.

Servais looked at Mugram’s wounds:

Yes, the caravan's corruption medicine is very effective. It is indeed a caravan that can cooperate with the Red Lion.

Princess. When Mugram saw Lani, he knelt down and started crying, I am guilty!

Seeing that Mugram was so excited, Lani's gloomy face brightened slightly:

Okay, get up. I asked the aphrodisiac magicians at the academy, and they said the enemy is very strong. It seems to be the airbending master from Ohelai.

Mugram was still kneeling on the ground:

That's not what I said to offend.

What is that? Lani frowned.

I was playing cards with other magicians in the school building, which gave those thieves an opportunity to sneak into the big library and steal Lady Lenora. Mugram's tears burst out from the shield of the iron helmet, I The crime deserves death!

Lani was silent for a moment and nodded:

Damn it indeed.

Mugram drew his sword and prepared to commit suicide, but was stopped by Lani.

Find my mother first. Lani said, You are a knight of Carlia. How can I judge you as my mother? Your task now is to find your mother.

Mugram was a little confused, but he immediately came to his senses:

Lady Lenara is not in the Church of Marriage?

Not here, Lani said.

Mugram's expression turned gloomy: My condolences...

What I need is information about you, not this nonsense. Lani said in a bad tone, Besides, I'll let you express your condolences.

Didn't the magician give you information?

The magicians gave very little information.

Mugram said: These hateful magicians are watching from a distance. Logically speaking, they should be able to get the most information.

Lani said: The enemies have not lost their fighting power. They are all running away. The magicians are chasing after them, and most of them died on the road. The magicians said that you are the only one who witnessed it from the beginning to the end.

That soldier also escaped? Mugram said, Then I will repay you truthfully - I was playing cards with the magician, I got a good hand of cards, and I have both the big and small kings -

Lani held a black knife in her hand, sharpening the edge on the whetstone: Speak to the important point, don't force me to take action.

Mugram said: Then the Ohe warrior rushed over from the direction of the school building. We quickly accepted the challenge, because the people I played cards with were all elites from the academy, and all of them were masters of card counting. They could draw magic circles and calculate at the same time. There’s also that talent that didn’t come out for a few cards – so we withstood the attack for the time being.”

But I didn't expect that another group of people had already sneaked into the big library at that time and stole Lady Lenora. Mugram said regretfully.

Another group? Lani said, I heard from the magician that they seem to be together. They are all from Oher.

It's not like that, Mugram said. The warrior of Oheh was very murderous and never communicated with her. But the other two were a man and a woman, but they were unwilling to kill Lady Lenara. They were also the ones in Oheh. The soldiers attacked and sent Lady Lenara to the Church of Marriage.

A boy and a girl? What do they look like? Lani asked.

They are all wearing the academy's apprentice robes. The women are very beautiful and have braided braids. The men are wearing a spherical pyroxene stone mask. The style has never been seen before. The appearance seems to be a mirror covered with mercury. Mugram said.

I've never seen it before... Lani searched for such an image in her mind, but had no impression.

Military advisor Mountain Demon Iggy guessed:

They are all wearing the academy's apprentice robes. They must have been sneaking in for a long time. I'm afraid they had planned it a long time ago, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to do it. Not long after they sent Lady Lenara away, someone came to take Lady Lenara away.

Mulgram said: Princess, please allow me to find Lady Lenora. I want to atone for my mistakes.

Do you know where to look? Lani's voice was a little cold, Like Malenia did when she looked for her brother, she went across the entire border and couldn't find him anywhere in the end?

Lani lowered her head and thought:

Mercury's hood, qualified to study in the academy... could he be a descendant of the Eternal City?

She looked at Iggy:

Are you sure you have collected all the keys from the outside world that can pass the seal?

Iggy nodded: We have Adura. He has eaten many magicians and is very familiar with the distribution of magicians in the Lake District. In addition, we have placed eyeliners on the only way to the academy gate. Someone really dug out the key. , we will also use various methods to receive it in our own hands.

The only way to go... Lani held her forehead and sighed, The magician's information - the key of the Oh warrior fell when he was avoiding the magician's attack. Just when everyone thought he was trapped in the academy, he took the shield Just jump over the wall and glide away.

Iggy said: I'm sorry princess, our manpower is limited, and the sky is really unstoppable.

Soldier Ohhe's key fell off... Lani murmured, Gliding away, it means he still can't fly, which means he still entered the academy with the key. Where did his key come from?

Lani's face became increasingly gloomy:

There should be a big force behind him.

Iggy nodded: Such a powerful warrior, fearless enough to assassinate, and enter the ground without anyone noticing. If he hadn't triggered the trap in the school building, he might have directly touched the inside of the big library.

Lani said: The Ohe warriors hid in the lake area and went to find him. They must find him at all costs.

What about the other group? Iggy asked.

After sending magicians to infiltrate for so long and planning so carefully, is it possible for us to find it? Lani said, As Mugram said, my mother should not be in danger in the hands of this group of people. On the contrary, she belongs to the Ohe warriors. With such crazy assassination, they will definitely continue to search for my mother. If they find that soldier, they can find my mother - at least they can protect her from them.

Lani waved her hand: The soldier is seriously injured and can't run far. Go find him.

The power of the Calian royal family came out in full force to find the missing Queen of the Full Moon.

===========

You failed again. Bai Zhi's voice was a little cold.

In front of Suzu Hunter, Momochi's virtual image stood in mid-air, looking down at the tall man, It seems that our cooperation will be suspended.

You promised me that you would atone for my sins. The bell hunter rarely spoke, with an old and hoarse voice, My sins can be wiped off.

The premise is that I can become the King of Elden. Bai Zhi said, But if you complete the task like this, how can I successfully become the King of Elden? It only takes three. Count how many times you have failed. Already?

Give me another chance. The bell hunter said.

Bai Zhi snorted coldly:

You have lost the pyroxene key. You obviously don't value the help of your comrades. Find your own way. I will consider accepting you after you can bring results.

The projection disappeared, leaving the bell bead hunter alone leaning against the bushes, blood seeping through the gauze and dripping on the lake.

Noticing the blood dripping, the bell hunter used his shield to pick up the blood-stained lake water and muddy water, and used his air-bending skills to send the shield away far away.

When the shield came back, he put it under him and rewrapped the gauze on his arm.

The injury this time was not much lighter than the last time the car rolled over. Although the arm was still there, most of the bones were cut off, and only a little flesh was connected.

Using his shield as a walking stick, the Bell Hunter staggered around the lake area.

He was a death row prisoner. As a death row prisoner, he snatched the executioner's sword and killed him.

But even with such tyrannical power, he still finds it difficult to find a place in the border area.

The thorns wrapped around his body, leaving bloodstains that made everyone avoid him. Everyone was eager to tear off a piece of flesh from his body.

So Suzhu Hunter also became someone else's executioner, carrying the executioner's sword and accumulating more and more sins.

The sword dance from Ohe was going all the way, but when it encountered the caravan, it overturned several times in a row.

Demigod and Great Rune, he must find relevant information and perform meritorious deeds in order to wash away his sins and live normally in this world.

But now...

Feeling the pain in his elbow, Suzhu Hunter became depressed.

Even though he wields a sword and doesn't particularly need limbs, missing two limbs still affects his combat effectiveness.

The bell hunter stopped thinking about it and moved on.

Demigod, Big Rune... Demigod, Big Rune...

The bell hunter staggered in the mud with his head lowered, his mind filled with thoughts of high-ranking big shots.

Then he saw a man shorter than himself.

It was an old man with broken legs, gray face and white hair, without the golden light of blessing in his eyes, crawling on the ground and looking at the bell hunter.

Are you okay? The old man looked even more miserable than the Lingzhu Hunter. He asked about the Lingzhu Hunter's injuries with concern, We have a doctor there who can treat you.

The bell hunter noticed that there was an object like a wheelchair next to the old man.

The wheelchair is very narrow, like two small low wooden wheels tied with wooden strips, with a wooden board across them.

The old man noticed the bell hunter's gaze and smiled:

I was originally going to sit, but our car is limited, so we can only make do with this. You are injured, can you sit?

Suzhu Hunter looked at the small wheelchair, which was no bigger than a shield, and didn't know how to sit.

Seeing that the bell hunter didn't want to sit down, the old man didn't show any politeness anymore. He climbed onto the car and threw himself between the wooden bars, covering his belly.

Then the old man stretched out his hands and dug in the muddy water. The low wooden wheels matched his hand's force, and the wheelchair began to rotate.

Please follow me, our large army is over there. The old man said, I am a scout in this direction, although it is a bit ridiculous to say this at this age and in this posture. But it is nothing if I can contribute to the clan. …”

The bell bead hunter never spoke or responded to the old man's chat, and followed him silently.

The team of Platinum Sons is moving forward silently in the Lake District.

There were many caravans in the team, and the oldest and frailest man, the platinum old man, stayed in the caravan.

The old man lying on the wheelchair introduced the Suzhu Hunter:

We take turns riding in the tent car. After all, we are a race that is not blessed. Prolonged exposure to the light of the golden tree will hasten our demise.

Facing the arrival of the bell bead hunter, several platinum old men discussed and decided to give up a caravan to the bell bead hunter so that he could have a good rest.

A platinum old man also brought fruit and animal meat to the bell hunter and treated him to a meal to replenish his strength.

Why do you want to help me? Suzhu Hunter asked after a moment of silence in front of the food brought to him, Aren't you afraid of me?

The bell hunter pointed to his face and limbs: I am a sinner and a mutilated person. Why don't you scream and run away?

The platinum old man smiled:

We are the sons of blasphemous platinum, and we are also born with disabilities, destined to become disabled. Do you think we still care about this?

The old man Platinum put the food in the corner of the caravan:

My name is Elpas, and I have some prestige in this Platinum Village. If you think we have other purposes for helping you, we really do have other purposes.

Hearing this, Suzhu Hunter suddenly felt at ease:

explain.

He no longer looked at the food warily, picked up a fruit and stuffed it into his mouth through the iron thorns.

As you can see, our Platinum clan are all disabled, so we are urgently looking for a way to cure the disability. Elpas said, We have found the limb-repairing ceremony of the former Golden King Greg, and we hope you can do it for us. Experimental subject.”

Iron Thorn stopped eating and looked at Elpas.

Elpas also looked at him:

We are honest with each other. If you agree, we can do experiments. If you don't agree, we are willing to help you. For the Son of Platinum, all disabled people are friends.

Friend... Tieji said in a strange tone.

He thought for a while and was about to answer when a high-pitched dragon roar came from high in the sky.

The Platinum clan was also in a panic, raising their arms one after another to find the location of the flying dragon. Some people accidentally fell to the ground and struggled for a long time unable to get up.

The flying dragon passed by from high in the sky, but it did not spit out its deadly dragon breath downwards, it was just passing by.

Just as the Sons of Platinum breathed a sigh of relief, several people drove their horses from behind, blocking the way of the Sons of Platinum.

The Platinum Sons were horrified when they saw the costumes of those people: Cuckoo?

Those were actually several cuckoo knights.

Cuckoo is the most vicious person to the Platinum Sons. They have inherited the fine tradition of the magicians - hating the Platinum Sons, hunting the Platinum Sons, and using the Platinum Sons for experiments.

Seeing that it was Du Juan, the Platinum Sons immediately sent out a signal, calling for a group of people who were exploring the road ahead and still had fighting power.

Elpas quickly got out of the caravan, climbed up to the knight, crawled in the shadow of the tall horse, raised his head and smiled:

My lords, what are your orders to stop the lowly races like us?

The Cuckoo Knight did not answer, but looked at Elpas with an unkind look: You are not honest enough to stay in that cesspit, what are you doing here? You come out and pollute the environment, you know. You have polluted this lake area.

Elpas said: To be honest, sir, we are leaving the lake area.

Leave? Du Juan was very happy when he heard this. That is indeed a good thing. You guys are quite sensible - where are you going?

Go to Stonewell, Elpath said.

Dujuan nodded: I heard that it's covered in storms, which is just right for you gloomy guys.

Yes, yes, your lord is right. Elpas said, We are an eyesore to your lord, and we will disappear immediately.

Wait a minute. Du Juan said, There is news from above about arresting a wanted criminal. Have you ever seen a criminal?

Sinner? said Elpas. What kind of sinner?

Convicts on death row are covered with rusty iron thorns. Du Juan said.

Elpas asked: What happened to the death row prisoner?

How do I know? Who knows what happened under the order given by those guys in the academy? Du Juan said impatiently, Did you see it?

Elpas shook his head: I didn't see it. We were all lying on the ground and walking. Our eyes are short-sighted and we can't see people very far away.

Du Juan looked at the team of Platinum Sons and walked towards the caravan: What's in this?

As he spoke, he was about to lift up the curtain of the caravan.

No sir! Elpas exclaimed.

But how could the Platinum Son's words move Du Juan? The curtain was opened.

The sun shines into the caravan, the stench surges, and pale pus spurts out of the caravan.

An old platinum son was huddled in the dark corner of the caravan. He was suddenly stimulated by the sunlight and the cuckoo, and some white blood burst out from his body, almost splashing on the cuckoo's body.

Elpas said:

There are some dying Platinum Sons in there, they can't be stimulated too much.

Damn, bad luck. Du Juan dragged the Platinum Son out of the car, punched and kicked him, and soon beat the Platinum Son to death.

Du Juan spat at Du Juan who was lying on the ground, the saliva was stained with the blood on the Platinum Son, and white smoke emitted.

Get out of the lake area quickly, you are a source of pollution. After the cuckoo knight finished speaking, he got on his horse and ran forward.

Millicent and others had just arrived at this time. They wanted to avenge their companions, but they were stopped by other platinum old men.

The platinum old men stopped Millicent and Letina, looked at their dying companions on the ground, and mourned in silence.

In another carriage, the bell hunter was opening the curtain and looking at the Platinum Son on the ground.

Elpas looked at the bell hunter and smiled bitterly:

Now do you understand why we don't scream and run away when we see you?

He looked at the platinum son who had been beaten into shape and said:

The Son of Platinum's experimental body does exist.

Elpas climbed outside another carriage and said through the curtain: Elder, the village has been arguing about who should be the first experimental subject of the Platinum Sons. You said that we can discuss it in Stone City, but it seems that there is no need for it now. , please save his life.

There was silence in the caravan for a long time, and an old voice came from the car: I'll give it a try.

Millicent walked towards the caravan where the dying Platinum Son was hiding, leaned into the car and took out a few limbs.

The stench in the car was not caused by the Sons of Platinum, but the legacy left by these almost rotting nobles with limbs.

Millicent removed the two limbs and placed them on the Platinum Son's legs.

She used the long Seishel knife that she kept in her bag to cut open a wound on the severed limb, peeling away the rotten flesh to reveal the relatively fresh body inside.

Then he cut out a scar on the son of platinum, applied some medicine to the wound, and pressed the severed limb on it.

The other Platinum Sons fixed her severed limbs, and Millicent took out half of a gold needle and used a kind of gold thread to sew the two different pieces of flesh together.

The golden thread runs through the skin and flesh, forming a magic circle. The continuous mysterious lines are reminiscent of the sacred prayer of two fingers.

After sewing, Millicent held the severed limb and chanted ancient prayers.

But before he could say a few words, a burst of flame suddenly spurted out from the interface between the severed limb and the Platinum Son.

The platinum old men gathered around the dying platinum son screamed and backed away, but their legs were inconvenient and they could only watch the golden flames spread towards them.

The flames froze in mid-air and gathered in Millicent's palm.

Millicent narrowly rescued the other platinum old men and quickly looked at the experimental subject.

That was a scene where there was nothing she could do about it.

The golden light eroded the Platinum Son's body from the inside.

The already pale body of the Platinum Son became more and more transparent and pale, and the golden light could be seen spreading inside the body. At first it seemed to be moving along the blood vessels, but soon the golden light broke through the constraints of the blood vessels and rushed through the body.

After a while, the Platinum Son's body exploded together with the severed limbs, as if there were no bones inside anymore, but balloons filled with water, and pus exploded all over the sky.

Millicent looked at this scene, her face as pale as the Platinum Son:

Why……

It's true. The elder's sigh came from the carriage, The limb grafting ceremony was prepared for the former Golden King. Only the blood of the Golden Clan can withstand such a ceremony.

Millicent looked at the Platinum Son piece by piece and found it difficult to accept it.

She secretly glanced at the other Platinum Sons, thinking about how to comfort them, but found that the Platinum Sons were all very calm.

Elpas looked at the caravan calmly:

So...your experiment failed?

It's hard to say yet, the elder's voice said, If the rejection can be solved, there is still hope.

Elpas greeted the other Platinum Sons:

Let's continue on our way first. It will be convenient for us to conduct experiments when we reach Stone City - Millicent, please go explore the road again.

Millicent and Letina returned to the front, still a little unresponsive.

Why are you so calm? Millicent asked Letina who was walking with her.

I'm used to it, Letina said. The Sons of Platinum have done many experiments to solve this birth defect. The big-headed frogs in the Lake District were one of their attempts. Unfortunately, they still didn't succeed, even if they were deformed enough to turn into frogs. , still cannot avoid the fate of disappearing legs.

Letina looked at her legs:

Becoming a frog may also reflect our wish to grow legs from being disabled, but this wish has still not been realized.

My condolences... Millicent said.

It's okay. Letina smiled, We have a lot of experiments. We came back this time just to find some materials. Another experiment in the snowfield has made progress, and it may contain the hope and future of the Platinum Sons. .”

You are really strong. Millicent was moved by Letina's optimism.

Letina said: After all, there is someone who is worse off than us.

She pointed to her crotch.

The vicious dog with limbs was wearing an anti-biting muzzle and purring.

Hmm... Indeed. Millicent saw the poor guy with the limbs grafted, and suddenly felt that the Platinum Son was not that pitiful.

Millicent said: You actually mounted him. He is human after all, isn't that bad?

Letina said: I didn't want to ride it at first, but Mr. Elpas persuaded me because of his affection and reason.

Millicent said: Mr. Elpas is really a wise old man. How did he persuade you? What sacrifices he made for the Platinum clan and to protect what must be protected?

After saying this, Millicent suddenly pursed her lips.

Strange, how could I have such an idea... Millicent murmured to herself, Is it her influence...

No. Letina said, Mr. Elpas said that dogs are very afraid of being alone.

The mutilated dog under Letina’s crotch:

He is already a dog, I can't... let him become a lonely dog ​​again.

The vicious dog was barking, moving, and struggling back and forth.

Don't move. Letina comforted the limbed vicious dog, You can't run away anyway, don't worry, I will treat you well.

Millicent looked at the vicious dog with the prosthetic limbs. Because the prosthetic limbs were too deformed and glaring, her eyes couldn't help but look at the vicious dog's limbs.

He seems to be writing, Millicent said.

In the muddy water, the vicious dog paddled its deformed limbs, leaving mark after mark.

Letina saw that the vicious dog wanted to talk, so she stopped controlling him with the reins and let him move around, writing strokes one after another.

Old... old? Millicent guessed what the evil dog wanted to write.

The two of them waited patiently for the vicious dog to finish writing, but they were the vanguard after all. The dog-man was very slow in writing, so after a delay, the large army at the rear leisurely caught up with him.

I didn't even finish writing the second word until I caught up with the evil dog.

You write too slowly. Letina rubbed the head of the limbed vicious dog, Let's talk about it when we get to Stonewell.

==========

The giant dragon hovers over the lake area, and the dragon-winged balloon floats, monitoring everything around it.

But still found nothing.

Lani climbed on the dragon's back, wanting to throw meteorites to the ground.

That is to say, she doesn't know gravity magic, so she can only spray fine pieces of magic gravel on the ground in mid-air.

The magic gravel was scattered into various remote woods and bushes. Lani hoped to use this method to force out the Oher warrior who assassinated her mother, or force out the other two magicians, or force out the one who supported her at the Fate Church. The thief who kidnapped Miriam and his mother.

But nothing was found. Every time there was movement in the bushes and woods, what came out was not what Lani wanted.

There were rabbits, bears and wolves in the bushes and woods, there were ancient lost ruins and half-naked ancestral people, as well as naked strong men and black-skinned hotties, but there was no one she was looking for.

Lani became more and more irritable, and finally took advantage of being in the sky where no one could hear her, and shouted loudly:

Asshole! Where are you!

Echoes rolled in the clouds, but no one responded.

On the road, Wuming put on the disguise of light magic for Man Yue and Milie, humming a song, and was still on the way to Stonewell.

At the speed of a turtle, I don’t know how long it will take to reach the station.

But Wuming is not bored either. He is studying Full Moon's rehabilitation treatment.

Looking at Man Yue's pale gray eyes, Wuming always felt a little familiar.

He stayed close to Man Yue all the way, looking for the source of this sense of familiarity, and at the same time taught Man Yue to read a set of powerful and elegant lines for Nefeli to support the scene.

rua, I said why I suddenly felt like I couldn’t finish the word count. It turned out that I forgot to change the word count mode of the software.
