Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

When Wuming heard what Magli said, he was shocked.

What did you say? Wuming was shocked, Where did you... get your wife?

I thought you were going to be shocked by the child. Magri said, It seems that you really haven't told you that Nok is my wife now.

Although the child is also shocked - this matter of Nok is more serious. Wuming said.

Why? Magri didn't understand.

I am the Father of Fate. Wuming said, And I know very well that apart from me, the only turtle in the whole border area who is Miriam is the Father of Fate. Has he taken away my business? Is there anyone else in the border area who is also doing this business?

Magri understood and smiled:

No, we are not connected, we are just...together.

Pregnancy out of wedlock. Wuming said, It's even more serious.

Noak doesn't care about that, Magri said, and we've been to the Marriage Church and it was destroyed.

The marriage ceremony is still very important. It needs to have a sense of ceremony. Wuming said, I will make a replacement for you later. It will be a grand affair. I will set up a banquet with 1,800 tables and entertain relatives and friends. I will ask my chef to do it himself. I’ll prepare delicious food for you and give you a 20% discount.”

I don't have any relatives or friends with Nok, and I don't want to waste that money. Magri refused decisively, We need to save some money now to prepare for our future children.

Wuming saw that Ma Geli was determined and knew that he would not be able to get this big deal, so he was a little disappointed.

Really pregnant? Wuming asked Magli.

Can this be false?

Wuming collected the corpses everywhere, packed them together with the money bag in Magri's hand and the sword in his hand, and helped Magri up:

Let's go, I'm going to visit the bride too.

A dilapidated house in the Lake District. The roof and walls of the dilapidated building were covered with various patches. Many of them were filled with the hard shells of giant shrimps and crabs. They are both patches and totem signs to intimidate outsiders, enough to make people aware of the owner of the house. He is a man of considerable strength.

Nok was lying on the bed in the hut, his lower body covered with brocade quilt, leaning against the bedside and reading a book quietly.

There was a sound of footsteps coming from the not-thick wall. She gently put down the book and listened. At the same time, she reached towards the bed and lifted a heavy crossbow.

The footsteps were messy, it was two people coming together.

Nok cocked the heavy crossbow.

The door of the wooden house was opened, and Magri walked in and saw a crossbow arrow pointed at him with a cold light.

It's me. Magri quickly raised his hands in surrender.

At this time, Wuming also entered the house carrying large and small bags. He saw Nok holding a crossbow and pointed it at the door, and smiled:

“What a warm welcome.”

You guys? Nok put down the heavy crossbow, took off the arrows and began to loosen the string, You thought there was a cuckoo.

Have you met Du Juan? Magri was alert.

I came here once, and I shot three people to death. Nok said lightly, It was more troublesome to clean them than to kill them.

She noticed the injuries on Magri's body:

how did you make it?

I met them too, thirty people. Magri smiled, I almost couldn't come back.

Nok looked at Wuming: You saved him? Thank you.

Hey, hey, I solved it myself. Magli was dissatisfied, I'm also very powerful.

How can you be that powerful? Nok didn't believe it.

Don't you often say that I'm very powerful -

The arrow passed by Magri's face, and Nok swung the crossbow arrow with one hand, like a heavy cannon, interrupting Magri's words.

Nok's dark cheeks were a little burning, and he was a little angry: Is this something you can say?

Nok didn't want Magri to talk about this kind of topic when outsiders were present, so she quickly looked at Wuming to make sure he didn't listen.

Thinking of Wuming's level of detachment, she could already foresee Wuming boasting proudly about how effective his turtle neck meat was.

But found that Wuming disappeared.

Looking around again, he saw Wuming squatting on the side of the bed, staring at him in trance.

Nok was startled and pushed up the quilt:

He didn't mean that, don't get me wrong...

Wuming didn't respond, he just looked at Nok's slightly bulging belly intently.

Nok noticed Wuming's gaze, his cold expression was slightly red, he turned away his face and covered his lower abdomen with both hands.

Is this fertility? Wuming asked.

Don't you know? Magli was surprised.

Wuming shook his head: I had no idea about these before. These activities no longer exist in the places I visited. I only learned about them through legends and leftover knowledge.

Wuming stared at Nok's belly:

It was born...

Nok hesitated: Do you want to... touch it?

Wuming gently stretched out his hand, and placed the glove on Nok's belly against the sheet, carefully feeling the soul that was being gestated. Although it was weak, it was beating tenaciously, like an unextinguished candle.

Nok felt Wuming relax, and the strong armor seemed to soften, illuminated by the warm sun.

As for such a big reaction... Nok looked at Wuming looking like he was healed, and a drop of sweat dropped from his forehead.

I have seen one soul destroy another soul, one soul devour another soul, I have only seen fusion and annexation, but I have never seen one soul give birth to another soul. Wuming murmured, So this is how it feels...

There has been all kinds of bad news during this period. Wuming said, This is good news. Thank you.

Nok's expression softened a little:

You can listen to the sound, there should be some movement.

Wuming put his ear to his belly and said happily:

What a great voice.

Magri said with a smile: I listened for a long time, but I didn't hear anything.

Wuming closed his eyes and said intoxicatedly: Ah, birth, how wonderful it is. Children will give birth to grandchildren, and grandchildren will give birth to children. Our business will be endless, and we can also do business for children, cradle, toys, cram school -

Wuming heard a click, opened his eyes, and saw Nok holding an unloaded heavy crossbow against his face.

Nok looked down at Wuming, his eyes flashing coldly:

Stay away from my kids and thank you.

Wuming stood up and raised his hands in surrender, unable to suppress his smile:

This is indeed good news, best wishes to you.

Nok's murderous aura softened a little and he curled his lips:

It's not all good news. It's very inconvenient now. Not only will I not be able to regain my fighting strength for a long time, but I will have to open another mouth in the future. It will be very painful in the future.

Magri held a large bag of runes:

Don't worry, I earned a lot of runes, even for you and the child. We are still fighting side by side, but this time you are the main battler and I am assisting.

Where did you get so much money? Nok was surprised.

Magri raised his eyebrows and proudly told Nok about his experiences, how he went to Yatan, participated in the battle festival in the royal city, and how he challenged his childhood idols and legends to gain recognition and appreciation.

It's a pity that you weren't here at that time. The King of War was really powerful. I fought at least until I lost consciousness several times... Magri still missed the battle festival. Thanks to the guidance of the King of War, otherwise I might still be there when I came back. I was really surrounded by those cuckoos.”

He saw that Nok's expression was a little complicated.

What's wrong? Magri asked.

Nok was silent for a moment and shook his head: It's nothing, I'm a little scared. After all, the battle festival is about life and death.

Wuming held up his face and listened, then said:

That's right. If Magri dies in the battle, then there will only be a widow who is still pregnant and has limited mobility - not even a widow, but a woman who became pregnant out of wedlock.

Magri shrank his head: I'm sorry for making you worry.

I am also a soldier, and I know you have no better way. Nok said, After all, in this world, there are always risks.

Ah. Wuming thought of something and took out an extremely deep rune, Here you go.

Nok looked at the nameless piece of runes and estimated that the power contained in this rune was not much less than that of Magri's bag of runes.

What are you doing? Nok didn't dare to answer.

I'm dividing Larkard's big runes. Wuming said, It was originally planned to give one copy to all living beings. If you have an extra soul, you will naturally get an extra rune.

Nok looked at Magri, who nodded:

It's true. Kallia and the Royal City are preparing.

Your share will be handed over to me. It is the rune that has been dealt with. Wuming stuffed the rune into Nok's arms, Consider it as a blessing from me, the bonding priest. You have probably been together for so many years. Come, the first born child is very memorable.

Nok said: Thank you...

Pigs also need to be fed with feed.

Don't describe my child as a pig. Nok threw a crossbow arrow at Wuming.

Wuming took the crossbow arrow and said with a smile:

If you need help with anything in the future, you can come to me.

I really have a favor to ask of you. Magri took out a few runes from his wallet and handed them to Wuming, Can you hire a carriage there?

What to do? Wuming and Nok said in unison.

Magri said: I feel that the security in Yatan is much better than that in the Lake District, and the power in the air is more abundant. I want to move and take Nok there.

Magri looked at Nok: Is that okay?

Nok looked at Magri's injuries and nodded.

Wuming accepted Magli and paid Luen: No problem, the carriage will arrive in a few days and I will arrange a good place for you. The first couple and the first parents after the Broken War, I have to make you happy. Set an example for others.

Wuming sent a message to the elevator camp, then ended the visit and said goodbye to Magli and the others.

When leaving, Wuming was in a happy mood.

He came to Rhea Lucalia Academy and happened to meet Burke.

Boss is in a good mood. Burke greeted Wuming.

I've seen good things happen. Wuming smiled, I'm more confident in my plan.

Plan? Burke blinked.

Business secrets. Wuming hissed, Is Lenara here?

My godmother is in Kallia Castle. Burke said, What's wrong, boss?

Business matters. Wuming replied, She's not usually in the Walled City, right?

Burke nodded: I'm usually in the big library, but I don't know why I returned to the city some time ago.

Wuming exchanged a few words with Burke and then went to the walled city.

Arriving at the walled city, Wuming probably knew why Lenara came back.

Latarn was huddled next to the observatory. His huge body shrunk a few times, and he sat obediently with the horse on his crotch, listening to Lenara's scolding.

I asked you to find a way to block the threat of the starry sky, so you ran to pull a star. Your sister still doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, and you destroyed the trajectory of the stars. What if it affects your sister's fate... Lenara kept talking. scolded Ratan.

Latarn listened to Wuming's advice in a moment of passion, and now he is bearing the price of being swallowed by his blood. Facts have proved that soldiers still have to fight with blood and cannot be swallowed up by it.

When Latarn saw Wuming, he immediately pointed at him:

He asked me to go. We are allies. I will help if I can...

Wuming immediately stood on Lenara's side and spoke sternly:

How can a man be so devoid of his own persistence and stand? Whatever others say is what he says. It's not a hero to drag others into trouble when something goes wrong!

Latarn wanted to give Wuming a knife, but Wuming stood behind Lenara, and he didn't dare to move rashly.

Lenara said: Give others a holiday, and you go observe the stars and find out the fate of your sister.

Lenara glanced at Wuming behind her:

Unknown businessman, what do you want?

When Wuming heard Lenara's name, he knew that Lenara was also blaming him - Wuming was usually called Kaliya's friend.

Wuming laughed twice:

We have a project that is seriously lacking pyroxene, and I wanted to see if you can do anything about it.

Lack again? Lenara frowned, Didn't you already take away two thousand tons before?

Who would have thought that it was only the initial demand, and now it requires 420,000 tons. Wuming said.

This is not a small amount. Lenora said.

Who says it isn't?

Lenara said: The amount of pyroxene we control is limited. If we give you so much, it will shake our foundation.

Wuming didn't have much regret. It was indeed impossible for Lenara to agree to this amount.

Isn't that why you asked Lata Enla to bring down the meteorite before? Lenara said.

Wuming nodded.

Se Lian really poses a problem for you. She is always a big trouble. Lenara said, I'm sorry, my friend, I can't promise you.

I can't help it, this number is indeed too exaggerated. Wuming smiled bitterly and shook his head, preparing to leave.

Lenara said: I'm afraid not only can I not help you, but I will also trouble you.

Wuming asked: Yadan, you helped me. If Lady Lenara has something to do, I will naturally help.

Lenara said: I haven't heard from Lani for a long time. I saw what came from the starry sky some time ago and thought of my daughter's law in the night sky, which made me even more worried about her. I know you are also a powerful warrior. Can you help me? I'm looking for news about Lani? If possible, I hope you can help her.

Lani has to deal with two fingers. Wuming said.

I know this is really embarrassing for you. Lenora said, Not only did I fail to help you, but I also troubled you so much.

Wuming was silent for a moment and said:

I'll think about it first and then give you an answer.

Lenara nodded and sent Wuming away.

What should I do... Wuming thought hard, but couldn't think of a way. Wuming even made a special trip to leave the academy, using the clever magic there to continue thinking hard.

Wuming walked from the south gate to the east gate, along the repaired college avenue, until he walked out of the coverage of the college's magic realm. He left the college and reached Berum Avenue, but he couldn't figure out a way.

It seems that I can only use that one move. Wuming said in a deep voice, and a cold light flashed through the helmet's peephole, Use that forbidden move...

Wuming dodged and threw himself in front of an old fortune-teller lady at the south gate of the college:

Great Immortal, save me!

The old woman smiled kindly: Give me your finger.

Is there really a way? Wuming was surprised and stretched out his hand.
