I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones

Perhaps it was the drive through the night, or the horrific events that had taken away too much energy, and Drizzt soon became drowsy and was about to fall asleep.

Just as his consciousness was about to fade away, Drizzt felt a hand suddenly grab onto his quilt.

He opened his eyes immediately and picked up the revolver under the pillow in his hand.

Before the muzzle had time to turn around, he saw that Lu Bian was shaking himself.

"......What's wrong?"

Drizzt felt very helpless.

"I just thought of a question."

Lu Bian said very seriously.

"We came to Dry Water Town from the fog. If we didn't have those experiences, we might have to delay for a while, or wait until the morning to arrive. Why did the Hai family arrange for someone to receive us late at night?"

"..."

Drizzt, who was still a little sleepy, immediately woke up.

"You mean, they know we're here?"

Lu Bian nodded and said immediately.

"When we arrived at Dry Water Town, only two militiamen saw them, and they didn't meet anyone else on the way. Those two people kept vigil and didn't leave to report, so no one should have notified the Hai family that we were here."

But in fact, Lu Bian and Drizzt just arrived here, and before they took a few steps, they met the servant of the Hai family.

"He can't just wait at the gate to greet guests without going to bed every day, so I think he should know we're coming and calculate the time."

Lu Bian expressed his guess.

"But how did they know...and nobody was watching us...wait, you mean, those monsters?"

Drizzt felt a chill down his back.

Those who wandered in the fog, without a heartbeat, like people with protruding eyes, were the only ones who saw Lu Kand and Drizzt come out of the fog.

And the scrawny villagers, who also saw the carriage's whereabouts.

If it is these things, monitoring the two people and telling the Hai family about their arrival...

"This wedding doesn't look very peaceful..."

It's not that Drizzt hasn't been to missions on eroded difficulty. In these missions, there will always be many changes. He even suspects that the bride and groom that he sees at the wedding tomorrow may be the eyes that protrude like fish. Something like a human being.

"I'm going to bed first."

Lu Bian said, and retracted back into the quilt.

"??"

Drizzt looked at Landing in disbelief.

This person suddenly said a word, and then lay back on his own?

Now that he can't sleep, what is he trying to do?

Drizzt put down his gun and lay back again.

Tossing and turning, he kept replaying the strange-looking people he saw in the fog, as well as the terrifying fish head stone statue. When he was really sleepy and was about to close his eyes, the sky was already dark.

Drizzt felt something in his ear.

jingle--

dang dang dang-

very noisy......

Drizzt opened his eyes, he was a little dazed, and he didn't know how long he had slept.

He saw Lu Bian sitting at the table, and there were many bowls on the table, which seemed to be breakfast.

"Are you awake? Free breakfast is provided here. The seafood porridge tastes very good!"

Lu Bian said excitedly.

"...you wake up early in the morning to eat free breakfast?"

Drizzt yawned and got up.

He saw a large bowl of porridge on the table. The porridge was full of various fish and shrimp. In addition, there were fried fish and steamed crabs, which were very rich.

After taking the bowl, Drizzt took a sip half-awake. The mild porridge with a sweet seafood flavor relieved him a little, and his brain gradually recovered.

He looked at Lu Bian.

This person, so energetic, did he fall asleep unguarded last night?

No, wait a minute.

Drizzt seemed to understand something.

"You said those words to me in the middle of the night last night, just to keep me awake to watch over you?"

He blurted out.

"How is that possible? By the way, I asked when I went downstairs to get breakfast just now. We may not be able to attend the wedding today."

Lu Jun replied as it should, and added another sentence.

"what happened?"

Drizzt's hand suddenly stopped while eating seafood porridge.

Did something go wrong?

The woman in the red wedding dress I met last night was the bride?

This town feels more and more dangerous! ! !

Looking at Drizzt with a dignified expression, Lu Bian smiled, picked up a crab, and skillfully took it apart.

"Because they say the wedding is the day after tomorrow."

"what?"

Drizzt's hands stopped.

"The wedding is the day after tomorrow, and we actually arrived early. Maybe according to the usual way, even if we are trapped by the fog, as long as we stay where we are, we can come to Dry Water Town when the fog clears."

With a click, Lu Bian opened the crab's shell.

Ask for a ticket!

===069. Are you the devil ===

The pattern of Dry Water Town during the day is no different from other towns.

Lu Bian came to the first floor of the inn, wearing a jacket that was out of tune with the surroundings, and lined up the coins in his hand.

"Boss, warm up two taels of wine and a bowl of fennel beans."

He said casually.

That insensitive boss last night, with a smile on his face at this moment, replied to Lu Han.

"There are no beans, only wine, and small fish for drinking, is that okay?"

"Row."

Lu Bian handed the coin in his hand to the boss. This is the local coin, which he got when he got breakfast in the morning and when he went to the town to inquire about news.

During the whole process, no one was hurt.

There was a jug of wine and a stack of dried fish on the table. Lu Bian saw that the cat in the store was rubbing against his trouser legs. He picked up a dried fish, put it in front of the cat, and gave it a sniff. , The cat was very excited and made a hooting sound.

Then it watched as Lu Han pulled the small fish back and ate it in one bite.

The cat was stunned for a moment, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes, and he screamed.

"Are you the devil?"

Drizzt threw a small dried fish in front of the cat, watched it happily eat it, and complained.

"Boss, do you know about the Hai family, I heard that they can make the fishermen have a good harvest?"

Lu Bian asked while eating small dried fish.

There is no one else in the shop, it is very deserted, and there are few passersby in the town. Men usually go out to sea early to fish, and women, the elderly and children are all at home. This is a typical situation in agricultural villages and towns.

"The Hai family? The Hai family is the benefactor of Dry Water Town."

The shop owner's eyes lit up.

"Kishui Town suffered from floods at the beginning. The tides of the sea often rushed into the village and destroyed the fields. Later, the Master Master of the Gray Tower passed by and suppressed the monsters in the sea, and finally it became calmer."

"But later, probably because the seal was loosened, the monster in the sea ran out again. In order to retaliate against the people in the town, it controlled the sea. Since then, there will be no more tides here, and no fish can be brought here. The people here can only Going deep into the ocean to fish, it often happens.”

"At that time, people tried to offer sacrifices to the sea, from livestock to living people. Sometimes it was calm, and sometimes it was useless at all. Dry water town was originally very large, but because of this, it gradually declined and became what it is today. name."

"But later, the people of the Hai family came here. They brought in the tide and brought the fish. When the fish is the most, you can go directly to the beach to pick up the fish. Hey, that is the best situation."

"Did you know that the people of the Hai family master a special dance called the Qilang Dance, which prays for the tide and guides the fish. Every year during the fish tide season, they hold a ceremony, and it was very lively at that time."

"However, 20 years ago, the Hai family did not hold the ceremony on time for some unknown reason. At that time, everyone was panicked and surrounded the Hai family's mansion, but only heard strange noises coming from the house, and no one responded. .”

"After seven days, the talents of the Hai family came out, held the ceremony again, and everything returned to normal."

The owner of the shop didn't hide anything and kept talking. It seemed that this period of history was well known and familiar to everyone.

"Has there any strange noises in the Hai family?"

Drizzt picked up his pipe and lit the pipe.

"I don't know that. I heard people say it at the time."

The shop owner smiled while wiping the table.

"Why was the ceremony interrupted at that time, and was there anything unusual in your town after that?"
