The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 256 Meteor?

So the monsters, who couldn't stand the loneliness, immediately decided to go to Xiaochen's house to have a good meal.

Yang Yang looked at them, as happy as if he had never eaten meat before, a little helpless, but he still chose to accompany them to make trouble.

After all, for these monsters, what is really important is not to have a hot pot meal, but to be able to call friends they haven't seen for a long time, which is a rare thing for them.

That night, they gathered in the backyard of Xiaochen's house, planning to have hot pot together
.As soon as Yang Yang entered the door, he saw the succulent little fox taking care of him. After saying hello, the door of Lu Fu's room opened.

"Are you here?" Lu Ax was a little surprised when he saw Yang Yang, "Didn't I ask you to come here before? Why did it take you so long?"

Yang Yang scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I want to come here earlier, but the store is busy!" Lu Ax glanced at him, then at Michelle behind him and nodded, expressing his understanding.

While the two were talking, the little fox ran over with a pot of succulents in his hand and said, "Yang Yang! Yang Yang! Look! My succulents have grown!"

Yang Yang took a look at the succulent in his hand and asked, "What kind is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"This is my new one. It just arrived a few days ago. This new breed is called Bear Claw. Look! Does it look like a bear's claw? Isn't it cute?"

Yang Yang nodded without thinking, "Hmm! It's cute! But we're here for hot pot today, how are the preparations going?"

Hearing his words, the little fox patted his chest and said, "I'll take care of things! Don't worry!"

Seeing the little fox like this, everyone laughed.

Then everyone started to prepare for the hot pot. Halfway through, the door was pushed open again. Everyone turned their heads and saw Xie Zhi in a suit standing at the door. He pushed the button on the bridge of his nose. Glasses said, "Ah, why is it so lively today?"

"Don't you know what day it is today?" Ying Long asked in surprise when he heard this, "Then you're still here?"

"Xiaochen called me, can I not come?" Xie Zhi smiled helplessly and said, "You still don't understand her temper?" After everyone heard his words, they thought about Xiaochen's usual personality, and they all felt that There was no rebuttal.

"Hey! What are you doing standing at the door!? Why don't you hurry up and help?" Xiaochen came out of the kitchen at this time, and greeted Xie Zhi after seeing Xie Zhi, "Hurry up and take off that eye-catching suit and come over here to help!"

Xie Zhi could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, made a "look at it" expression, then took off his suit, put down his things, and walked inside.

"Xiaochen! Does this thing need to be washed?" At this moment, Chacha's voice suddenly came from the kitchen, and Xiaochen turned her head to ask. "Ah? Which one? Let me see!"

Xie Zhi paused when he heard Chacha's voice, then turned his head and looked at Yuan Mu, as if he wanted to ask him for something, the latter nodded and said. "That's right, Chacha and Zhou Liang are back, and we're holding a dust-cleaning banquet for them now."

After hearing his words, Xie Zhi sighed helplessly, and then yelled towards the kitchen: "Xiaochen! You didn't tell me that today is a welcome feast!?"

There was silence at the other end of the kitchen, and Xiaochen's voice came out after a while: "Sorry! I forgot!"

Fortunately, everyone was used to Xiaochen's inconspicuous personality, so they didn't say anything more.

The preparation of hot pot is always very fast, but everyone has already prepared everything in a while.

According to the usual habit, a group of people sat in a circle and began to eat around a big hot pot. Naturally, there was talking and laughing during the dinner, and everyone enjoyed themselves happily.

After the meal, everyone used finger-guessing to decide who would wash the dishes.But Lu Ax, who was going to introduce the magic weapon to Yang Yang, drank too much.

Looking at him who became drunk again and couldn't even speak clearly, Yang Yang could only sigh helplessly and gave up the decision to let him introduce the magic weapon. Yuan Mu looked at him in disappointment and reached out to pat his back. Shoulder said: "It doesn't matter, there will be a long time in the future, there are plenty of opportunities."

Yang Yang could only nod his head, agreeing with this statement.

What else can we do?Never pour a basin of cold water over to wake him up?Seeing that he was so drunk that he couldn't even tell the difference between Hong Yuan and Michelle, he could only help him to sit up.

, and then said, "Forget it, you'd better sit down."

After the meal, everyone gathered around Chacha and Zhou Liang to ask questions, asking them to talk about what they encountered when they were studying in the north. The two thought about it and said no.

Yang Yang asked curiously, "Hey, was the place where you studied in Bingcheng?"

After hearing what he said, Chacha laughed and said, "How is it possible? You don't even think about it, our spells need to be practiced! Many spells rely on our original form. How can we make it so big in a place like Ice City?" The two of us become prototypes without alarming mortals?"

Yang Yang thought about the dense streets of Bingcheng, shook his head and said, "No."

"That's right, so the two of us did not train in Ice City." Chacha said.

Seeing Yang Yang's appearance, Zhou Liang laughed, and explained: "We were going to Beihai at that time."

Yang's eyes widened in surprise when he heard this, and he said, "Beihai? Doesn't that mean he went to Xiong Country?"

"That's right, it's Xiongguo. That place is icy and snowy. To be honest, I wouldn't be used to it without Zhou Liang." Yang Yang nodded, expressing his understanding. He remembered the time when he was in Bingcheng because the weather was too cold. , Chacha was uncomfortable and lay in the hotel for most of the day.

If this is the case in Ice City, it is probably even more serious in Xiong Country, which is famous for its coldness.

"Then did you encounter any interesting things during the practice?" Ning Yuan interjected and asked at this time: "I heard that place is very cold? I haven't been there yet!"

"Nothing particularly strange, right? What we have to do every day is to practice non-stop, to exercise our own sense of connection. After thinking about it, there is no fun thing to do if there are occasionally a few hot springs to soak in." Chacha I thought about how to say it.

"Isn't it? Is there really no one? I heard that there are often some magical things in that place."

"As I said, that place used to be the territory of the North Sea Sea God. He has a violent temper. Maybe he likes to do such things. That's not surprising."

Chacha thought for a while, and said so, she turned her head to look at Zhou Liang, and continued after seeing that he didn't respond: "But then again, we seemed to see a falling star last time, right? Zhou Liang?"

Zhou Liang nodded and said: "Yes, once when we met, we suddenly felt that something was wrong. When we looked up at the sky, we saw a star flashing across the night sky. Later, we and the elder together felt that something was wrong. Should be a falling star."

Yang Yang and I also stared wide-eyed in surprise and looked at Ning Yuan and said, "That's a shooting star! Then did you make a wish?"

Hearing his words, several people laughed wildly. Yang Yang looked innocently at the few people who were laughing wildly, then turned his head to look at Ning Yuan who was as inexplicable as himself and said, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

"It's nothing funny! This is what you humans have always said, and only you humans have such a romantic idea that falling stars can make wishes." Yuan Mu said with a smile.

"Isn't it?" Ning Yuan asked a little puzzled when he heard his words: "We have heard such legends since we were young, saying that it is a falling star, which will bring your wishes to the gods. Isn't this true? Is it?"

"Well, half of it is true and half of it is false. There are gods in this world, and there are ways to send your information, but let's forget about meteors. You don't think about them. Meteors are stars that fall from the sky. !

Think about it with your brains, how can things that fall from the sky bring your message to the gods? At this time, Ying Long began to scold the two of them, "Oh, you two are too. I usually tell you so many science popularizations, why don't you take it to heart?" "

Yang Yang thought helplessly, you have taught us so many things, but you have never told me about meteors!
Of course, he didn't dare to say this in front of Yinglong, because there is no doubt that the bad-tempered Yinglong would give him a disdainful look, and then tell him, go away!

Although Yang Yang has no temper, he is still a shameless person.

"Is the meteor dead and useless as the astronomer said?" Yang Yang still asked unwillingly.

"It should be useful, right? I remember I once said in a popular science film that some meteors would bring minerals that are not available on the earth to the earth?" Ning Yuan blinked and said to Yang Yang.

Seeing the two mortals discussing in a serious manner, the monsters all shut up about the material issues of mind and nature.

After all, there is a specialization in karma. For them, minerals and the periodic table of elements are too far away.Although they may live much older than the people who discovered these, they really have no interest in learning them.

"Who told you that the stars are useless?" Ying Long raised his eyebrows at this moment and said: "Did you not pay attention to the star trails we told you before?"
