Whispering Poems

Chapter 1764 Temporary departure

Even so, Miss Higgins vaguely felt that the man in front of her would never follow them away.She couldn't explain the source of this inspiration, but felt that this person was out of tune with them, this place, and even this world, like an outsider who had entered their dreams.

"Will it be that simple this time?"

Xia De thought suspiciously, but this time there is no time, all problems can only be solved next time.

Because too much time was wasted in the black mist camp, he only had the last 3 minutes of this expedition.While the witch was resting and recovering her strength, he also sat by the campfire and asked the boy who secretly wiped the dagger:
"Can you tell me about your purpose of coming here? The lady over there said that your country was destroyed, so you want to reverse it?"

The boy carefully hid the dagger back in his waist, glanced at the witch on the other side of the bonfire, lowered his voice and nodded gently:
"My father is the king, and I am the youngest prince in the kingdom. Because of the disaster, the whole country is gone. All the nobles, officials, people, livestock and land are gone. I want to turn back time and change this."

His wish is more difficult to realize than Mrs. Miles' wish, but since the tree father asked Xia De to handle this matter, he can only find a way.Only in this way, the boy's coins may not be enough.Xia De couldn't think of any way to reverse time and space. Fortunately, what the tree father asked him to do was "help complete the transaction", rather than completing a specific transaction.

"What kind of disaster destroyed your country?"

He asked again, the boy's face froze, he hesitated for a while before saying:

"Meteorite, a meteorite hit my country, yes, that's it. My country is not protected by the Witch Emperor, it's just a city-state, and it's all destroyed."

Xia De looked at him suspiciously, then glanced at the witch.Although the latter is resting, he is also listening to the conversation here.She shook her head slightly, obviously understanding what Xia De meant, she hadn't heard of the recent news that a meteorite had destroyed a certain country.

It's just that the witch didn't have the heart to talk to the boy. Xia De didn't have enough time left this time, and he didn't have time to use words to persuade the boy to tell the truth.

After Miss Higgins had rested, she took the two relics out of the cloth package.When they were in the Black Mist Camp, they couldn't even compare the elemental fluctuations of the two items due to the suppression of the power from the entire world, but they were able to find by the campfire that the Whispering element of the Broken Sword with a lower price was actually more expensive than that of the other item. Conch is stronger.

The witch couldn't think of how to use a broken sword to call out the soul for a while, so she reached out and picked up the conch, and jokingly said to Xia De:
"Look, it's a conch again. In addition to [Missing Conch], I've also heard of a conch that can tell the listener the answers to all the questions she wants to know."

"Are you sure that's not the whisper of something evil?"

Xia De asked back, and then he really saw the red-haired witch, very, very carefully put the conch to her ear and made a listening posture, just like in the market just now.But this time nothing happened, so she shook the conch suspiciously, as if she wanted to make sure it was broken, but there was no blood, screws or other things falling out, so she handed the conch to Mike. Mrs. Ernes:

"Madam, please try calling your lover's name at the conch. If you feel any discomfort, please throw the conch to me immediately."

The old man, who was still in a bad state of mind, pulled himself together and took the conch.

Both Shade and the Witch stood up and stood behind Mrs. Miles, and the boy looked over cautiously.

Mrs. Miles took a few deep breaths to calm her excitement and sadness, and then said in a very stable and clear voice:

"Richard Knight Jackman."

Xia De's first reaction was that he had never heard of this name before, and then he looked around nervously, while Miss Higgins, the witch, focused on the conch.

Nothing happened, at least the few people around the campfire didn't notice anything strange happened.

So for the sake of safety, the witch took back the conch from Mrs. Miles, and then sat down sullenly.

The silver-haired old woman comforted her, and there was no loss of emotion on her wrinkled face:

"It doesn't matter, we can continue to try. To be honest, if I just met him so simply, I would not be ready. Even to achieve the miracle in the story, we need to complete multiple tests. We want to find the one who didn't go home. Man, how can it be so easy. I am patient and we can keep trying until I can't walk anymore."

"But just took such a big risk"

Miss Higgins also knew that what Mrs. Miles said made sense, so she looked at the cutting sword again, probably thinking about trying it next.

But before she could make a move, she saw Xia De standing up.

"Have you rested yet? No, please don't go to the camp alone, it's dangerous."

The witch kindly reminded, but Xia De shook his head:
"I'm going over there."

He pointed in the direction he came from:
"It's not easy to explain. It's probably because I'm going to leave for a while, and I'll be back soon."

"what?"

The witch blinked her beautiful golden eyes suspiciously, but Xia De did not continue to explain:

"I will find a way to find out the specific function of that conch and that broken sword. While I'm away, you'd better not act casually, and I promise to come back."

As he spoke, he tossed his only coin to her:
"Save it for me."

We got up and were about to leave the bonfire camp. After 10 minutes, the white mist had already appeared.

Miss Higgins got up and tried to grab his sleeve:
"Wait a minute, what do you mean? You can get out of here?"

"I'm running out of time."

Shade smiled and waved to them, and the boy and Mrs. Miles also got up to see him off:

"In short, I am here to help you this time, please believe this. In addition."

He walked backwards into the black mist when he came:
"Don't spend the black coins in your hands casually, that thing is very weird. When I come back next time, I will bring you new news."

As he spoke, his voice completely disappeared into the black mist.The witch took the risk of taking a torch and walked over to take a look, but she didn't find the strange man.

"What the hell is he?"

When she sat down by the bonfire again, she muttered softly, but the old Mrs. Miles was not worried at all. She looked at the fire in front of her with piercing eyes:
"Perhaps it is someone sent by the gods to help us."

"Then why not a pretty girl, but a strange man?"

As he spoke, he glanced at the boy who minimized his sense of existence.

The silver-haired old woman didn't answer, but smiled and looked at the fire in front of her, as if she could see the lover who parted with her more than 50 years ago.

The difference at that time seemed to be at an intersection covered with weeds and flowers, and it was also near the bustling market.

(Mia is running.)

After returning from the past time, Mia, who was waiting for Shad, immediately came over and meowed around Shad.After Xia De picked up Mia, he quickly came downstairs again.Sure enough, within a few minutes, I saw Luvia rushing over:

"Oh, Shad, just now"

"it's me."

In this way, it was indeed Luvia at this point in time who talked to Xia De just now. [Missing Conch] Although the "signal" is not good in the chaotic place of time and space, it is actually connected to the person Xia De misses.

Now that she has come, Luvia listened to Xia De's experience of just 10 minutes.She is not interested in that market and Xia De's companions this time, but she is very interested in [Missing Conch]:
"I know this kind of relic, and it exists in our era. But this thing is not easy to get, I can think of a way, maybe I can communicate with different times again."

She looked at Xia De excitedly:

"If every time we need help, like the last battle of the Pantanal, the witch emperors appear, then you won't have to work so hard in the future."

Luvia came and went in a hurry. As for Miya, who was attached to Shad, when Shad asked if it wanted to go out with him, the cat also ran away.

After preparing lunch for Mia in advance, Xia De went to Green Lake City from the basement.Although he had let the hotel owners know his identity, Xia De still chose to leave the hotel through the back door of the kitchen.

When he was going out, Little John, a garbage can boy in the back alley, happened to be taking his puppy "out".The two sides greeted each other, and then they went in different directions.

Xia De did not immediately go to Michaela Blast Furnace City on the south bank of Green Lake to find the believers of the God of Cupids, but first went to the Kingfisher tailor shop on Royal Post Street to find Granny Natalie.

Grandma Natalie, like Mr. Edmond and Old John who opened an antique shop, are members of the Guiding Light Priory.Shard happened to have a few questions to ask, and he didn't go to the lighthouse in Coldwater Harbor and the antique shop in Tobesk because they were both too far away.

"Good morning, Grandma Natalie."

"Good morning, Mr. Watson. I met Megan a few days ago, and she seems to have a good relationship with you. You see, I introduced her to answer the story about Green Lake Central Island and the Edwards family for you. It is indeed true Bar?"

Grandma Natalie said that she and Megan had been friends for many years when Shade first came.She probably knew that Megan was a witch, because she had reminded Xia De that it would not mind if Megan was cold to him.

Xia De smiled and nodded:
"Your recommendation is indeed very good. I didn't expect to know such a friend."

The old lady in the high ring gave him a meaningful look, but she didn't delve into the relationship between Xia De and Megan:
"This time, it's not Edmond who wants to buy fish bones again, right?"

"No, no, I want to inquire about the information of the two relics. Oh, there is also a strange coin, but that coin is not a relic. I don't know the function of the three items."
