The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 186 The Bottom Line
Meng Xiu hugged the fish tank holding his breath, and before he could answer, Yuan Mu said, "I asked him to come here." As he spoke, he pointed to the fish tank in the young man's hand and said, "Let him come and do me a favor." .”

Yang Yang followed his hand and saw the fish tank that Meng Xiu held in his hand. There was nothing unusual about the fish tank. What was strange was that the fish in it were different from any fish Yang Yang usually saw. After looking at it for a long time, he suddenly felt blessed , opened the mouth and said: "Lech? Is this a leech?"

"Yes." Yuan Mu nodded, confirming his guess, "I think, since those people dared to blatantly kill Dr. Chen in front of you guys, they probably wouldn't care about killing a few more leeches. Besides, Chen Anyway, the doctor will at least take care of them, and now that he is dead, if they don’t find someone to bring these leeches back, they probably would have died a long time ago.”

"Good job." Yu Zhongwu stepped forward and took the fish tank from Meng Xiu's hand, and praised: "I know you are clever, so I asked you to find it, it is indeed right."

"Did you meet anyone when you went?" Yuan Mu watched as Yu Zhongwu put the fish tank on the table beside him, then turned to look at Meng Xiu and asked, "Or something unusual?"

"No." Meng Xiu shook his head, thought about it, and then said, "There was no one in the house when I went, and nothing strange happened."

"Is there any trace of someone entering that house?" Yuan Mu nodded in response to his answer, "Or is there a trace of things being turned over?"

Meng Xiu thought for a while after hearing the words, and then said: "There is no one in the house, but when I went, I heard the security guard in their community say that it seems that someone has dug up the grass near the house where he lives in the community. Know if it matters."

"The grass was dug up!?" Yuan Mu repeated his words, "Tell me in detail what happened."

"When I went there, I saw that the community was under construction. I asked and found out that the lawn near the building where Dr. Chen lived was dug up the day before I went."

As Meng Xiu spoke, he was silent for a while, and after looking at Yuan Mu, he continued, "I looked at the lawns that were dug up, and I don't think this is what the security guard said, it was a prank."

"Oh? What do you say?" Yu Zhongwu walked over with the fish tank in his hand, and asked after hearing this, "Why, you still watch these?"

"I don't know how to read." Meng Xiu touched his head a little embarrassedly, "If it was a prank, it should be dug casually, but I think the grass that was dug up should be about the same size. And I asked the security guard, and they said that the property in that community is good, and these places are monitored, but the monitoring did not capture who dug the lawn."

"The surveillance didn't capture it? How did the lawn open?" Hearing this, Ning Yuan didn't care about the fact that he and Meng Xiu hadn't met, and asked, "Is this even more bizarre than the lawn being dug up? I guess It’s all on the news, and the owner was killed nearby... Tsk tsk, I don’t think it’s scientific if the media doesn’t act.”

"According to the logic, this is the case." Yang Yang nodded his head in agreement when he heard what he said, "Why didn't it get photographed? Is the surveillance system broken?"

"The monitoring is not broken." Meng Xiu shook his head and said, "I also asked the security guards, and they found it as strange as you. They didn't find any suspicious people around there that night, but when they woke up in the morning, they found the grass It was opened by someone. I asked the security guard, because it is a community surveillance, there are still some blind spots, and it is dark, if people are wearing dark clothes, it is normal that they cannot be photographed. "

"Is that so..." Yuan Mu sighed thoughtfully after hearing what he said, then turned to look at Yu Zhongwu and asked, "How is it? Are those children okay?"

"Except for being a little frightened, nothing else happened." Yu Zhongwu looked at the fish tank on the table not far away and said, "They are all mentally immature, so they haven't been greatly affected. Now think about it. , may not be a good thing.”

"Just in this case, we may not be able to know from them what happened."

Yuan Mu followed his gaze to look at the fish tank on the table, and after a long time, he withdrew his gaze and said to a few people: "I'll go and inform Yue Bing that we can't take care of these leeches, so I can only ask her for help temporarily." gone."

"Well, just right, I'll also inform that friend of mine, let him see if these are the children lost in their clan." Hearing what he said, Lu Shi also said: "Hey, I just don’t know, the rest of them... how should I speak..."

"I'll go with you." Seeing his embarrassment, Yu Zhongwu said, "I shouldn't just stand by and watch the matter of the Shui tribe. Let me talk about it with you."

"Okay, okay!" As soon as he heard that Ying Long, Yu Zhongwu, was willing to accompany him, Lu Shi immediately nodded and replied, "Ying Long, you are really a good person! I will treat you to dinner later! What do you want to eat? Tell me!"

Regarding his blatant behavior, Yu Zhongwu shook his head, turned around and went out the door without saying a word, maybe it was not difficult for him to inform the elders of the Chu clan, but the difficult thing was that as Yinglong, he was unable to find out Whoever is behind the scenes to do this, avenge the children of the Aqua tribe.

Yang Yang looked at the backs of the two leaving, and thought in his heart, Dancing in the Rain is actually not easy.Thinking of this, when he turned his head to ask Yuan Mu about his next action plan, he heard Ning Yuan on the side speak.

"Although it's inappropriate... but... I still want to ask something." Ning Yuan watched Yu Zhongwu and Lu Shi's backs disappear at the door, turned his head and said to Yuan Mu.

"What is it, you ask." Yuan Mu didn't seem surprised by his behavior, he pointed to the chair beside him, "Sit down, I don't think your question can be answered clearly in one or two sentences."

"En." Ning Yuan nodded, took a chair and sat down, then looked at Yuan Mu, "I think you probably know what I want to ask?"

"I guessed a little bit, but I'm not sure." Yuan Mu replied with a smile, neither saying yes nor no, his ambiguous answer made the other two puzzled.

Yang Yang shook his head at Meng Xiu who was beside him, stopping what he was about to speak, and then pointed to the table beside him, signaling him to go over, leaving space for the two people who seemed to have something important to discuss.

"Since you guessed it, I won't play charades, just say it directly." Ning Yuan smiled, looked at Yuan Mu and said, "I want to ask, since Lu Shi said that the medicine that Dr. Chen sold me is real, is that true?" Say, those leeches can really cure my uncle's liver cancer?"

"Yes." Hearing his question, Yuan Mu nodded, confirmed his question, and then said: "And I said before, because those monsters are not willing, so the resentment when they die will let the use Those who get into trouble, but those leeches that Dr. Chen gave you don't have to worry about this problem."

"The reason why he made so many strange demands was not because he was making trouble out of no reason, but because these leeches hadn't opened their spiritual intelligence, so strictly speaking, they are not monsters, at most they are just some rare spirit beasts. Let alone you human beings, spirit beasts can be hunted and killed at will even in our demon world, so his effectiveness is much lower than those of those who have opened up their intelligence, so it needs rooster blood to give it Blessing."

"You mean, it's a blessing in disguise, if I give my uncle these leeches, his illness will be cured?" Ning Yuan looked at the fish tank on the table not far away, and the three bottles beside the fish tank had already The flesh and blood of the thug corpse, which could not be identified from the appearance, said to Yuan Mu: "Not only that, but there will be no karma afterward?"

"Yes." Hearing what he said, Yuan Mu gave an affirmative answer, then changed his posture and pointed to the three bottles and said, "And according to your human theory, you paid for this thing , so it is yours morally, and you can take it away.”

His words made Ning Yuan silent, but Meng Xiu, who was on the side, couldn't help hearing the conversation between the two. As a victim like the scorpion, he knew very well what the capture actions of the door meant to some little monsters.

Just like Sansan and the others, there are naturally elders in the Earmouse family who have already developed spiritual wisdom, but there are also many elders who have not yet developed spiritual wisdom like the leeches.For them, there is no difference, no matter what, they all have the same blood in their bodies, they are all one ethnic group.

Therefore, Yuan Mu's words were particularly unacceptable to Meng Xiu, and what made him most unacceptable was Yuan Mu's attitude when he mentioned these things, as if the leeches in the three bottles were irrelevant and could be picked up at any time. Abandoned, although it seems to be true for most cultivating human races, and even big monsters, but Meng Xiu still finds it unacceptable.

Yang Yang, who had been observing Meng Xiu, saw that his expression was not right, and immediately stepped forward to hold him down, and then gave him a wink, signaling him to be calm and not to be impatient.

Sure enough, at this moment, Ning Yuan, who had been silent all this time, spoke. He looked at Yuan Mu and said, "Forget it."

Pointing to the three bottles, he said softly: "Since you said that they are not spiritually enlightened, they must be children to those leech? I can't do the thing of renewing the life of that child to my uncle. , even if I can make it, my uncle won’t accept it if he finds out.”

After Ning Yuan finished speaking, he stood up and looked at Yuan Mu and said word by word: "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, this is what you told me. Even if the human race is inherently selfish, we are born as human beings, and we also have our own bottom line. Children, even though we failed to save them in time, at least leaving them a whole body is considered worthy of the inner alchemy in my body."
