Chapter 153 Guessing Lantern Riddles

“Come on, listen to me!
From a distance it looks like a dog, from close up it looks like a dog, he won’t move if you hit him, he won’t move if you scold him, he will move if you pull him!”

At this moment, Liu Yonglu was already sitting on the ground competing. Each of them guessed with one stone for more than ten rounds. It could be said that they had met a worthy opponent.

But in Liu Yonglu's opinion, the Colossus is actually not as good as his, and he is at a disadvantage because of this competition rule!

After the statue told the riddle, Liu Yonglu answered. As long as the correct answer announced by the statue was different from Liu Yonglu's, he would lose. He was not given any chance to explain. If he could be hypocritical, Liu Yonglu would definitely knock down the statue in no time.

You are just cheating. Never mind. Let your child eat poop.

"do not know……"

The stone statue usually knows if it knows, and doesn’t know if it doesn’t know. It won’t make wild guesses like Liu Yonglu.

"You damn dog! You can learn how to play with this thing!"

The statue then stated his next riddle:

"Without the sound of a mouth, rustling across the ground, a bloodless killer, a thief in the night."

"This is..."

Liu Yonglu originally wanted to answer with a sweeping kick, but then he thought, let's not joke around, this answer would not allow him to pass the test with his stone head, he had to find a way to get out quickly. Mi Li'er was probably stopped by the stone, he didn't have as much knowledge as I did, and if he got out too late, he would be crushed to death by the stone.

"A broom! Right?"

"It's the wind. It's your turn."

The giant moved its front paws again. It would do this every time Liu Yonglu gave a wrong answer. It was like a silent warning, just waiting to answer Liu Yonglu's riddle so that it could crush this talkative intruder to death.

"Okay, you listen to me. It has a cat head, a cat face, a cat nose, and cat eyes. It's not much bigger than a kitten, but not much smaller than a big cat."

"do not know……"

The colossus retracted its front limbs again.

"Half-grown cat! Hurry up!"

“It is a sweet poison and an invisible shackle that can make people fly or fall. It makes people intoxicated, but also brings sadness. It is what humans desire most and what they fear most to lose.”

"color……"

The lottery ticket was right in front of Liu Yonglu's mouth, but he had to swallow it back.

No, that is definitely not right. You have to follow your own way of thinking. We are elites trained by the exam-oriented education system, and the strategy of doing a lot of questions will never go wrong.

Liu Yonglu lowered his head and carefully recalled every riddle the colossus had asked, sorting out his thoughts and thinking to himself, I can at least guess one right.

His answers are always those nonsense!

"love!"

Liu Yonglu felt quite embarrassed when he said this, thinking to himself, you are such a big guy, yet you ask this question every day, aren't you ashamed?

But as Liu Yonglu gave his answer, the huge stone statue's head smashed to the ground, and its body began to fall apart, breaking into large and small pieces of stone.

Also in the desert, Millie Tang had finally prepared all the ritual materials. She took out the pocket watch from her pocket, looked at it, and took a deep breath. Victory or defeat depended on this one move.

But as soon as she stood up, she saw the stone statue of the Faceless God in the distance collapsed without any warning.

At the same time in the desert, she vaguely saw a figure walking towards her. He was wearing pajamas and a woolen coat with two slippers stuffed in the pockets of the coat!

It's Mr. Rich!
The next second, the two of them appeared in the dark room at the same time.

"Mi Li'er, don't do that next time. You should at least call me when you go out late at night. Look how dangerous it was today."

Liu Yonglu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Mi Li'er was safe and sound. Then he raised his hand and took off the mask on Mi Li'er's face. Only then did Mi Li Tang realize how much trouble this mask had caused!

"Mr. Ricky, how did you defeat the Faceless God?" Millie Tang also found it unbelievable. She didn't need to ask about the forbidden spell. She knew Liu Yonglu's abilities better than anyone else.

Defeating him head-on? That's impossible, as that's something only gods can do.

"Answer the questions! Guess the riddles! Happy dictionary!"

After every sentence, Liu Yonglu would pat Millie Tang on the back. Millie Tang thought to herself, when will you change this habit of touching her?

"What is the riddle of the Faceless God?"

"Hey... these are all simple things, don't ask. What are you doing here? Looking for something? Hurry up and get it and leave. Xiaohu will be worried when he comes back."

Liu Yonglu was quite embarrassed to say it.

Millie Tang thought about it and realized that this was the case, so the two of them took the diary on the table.

The name written in the diary is "Ilsa Baldwin".

"Oh, it's from our family too. Take it up and have a look."

"No, Mr. Rich, we'll just watch here."

Millie Tang thought of the conversation she had with Andrea before. She and the tutor did not take the diary away. Why? It is very likely that the diary will undergo unexpected changes after leaving the secret room. To be on the safe side, we will not take it away.

Liu Yonglu thought the explanation made sense, and the two of them gathered together under the dim kerosene lamp to read the diary. The last entry in the diary is often the most important, so Millie Tang went straight to the point.

[Ilsa's Diary XXX Year XXX Day]

Today is the seventh night I have dreamed of the witch. She is standing in front of me, next to the familiar fire. Father, it would be great if you could be by my side.

You once told me about the witches' terrible past. Those people made contracts with the gods, and everything they did was to serve and please the gods. They were the most selfish group of people.

But today she... she showed me how to treat a leper, and the guy was lying on a stretcher next to the fire, wrapped in bandages, and even from that distance I could see that he was very sick, just like old Anthony, our gardener who died yesterday.

In the dream, the witch pulled out a red-hot iron bar from the fire, wrapped it with sticky herbs that she got from somewhere, then tore off the bandage and pressed the iron bar on the patient's reddish-brown herpes.

I heard heart-wrenching screams and smelled a pungent burnt smell, but when the iron bar was removed, the festering and disgusting flesh showed signs of improvement, with slightly red blood threads emerging from the new flesh.

That was pure and clean bright red blood, father. I haven't seen this kind of blood in you for a long time.

Those pagans who came from afar could not save you. They only knew how to worship their gods. After the mass, their people would recover their health, but your body... was festering day by day.

Are we unworthy to serve their gods? Or maybe those hypocritical foreigners simply didn't want to cure your leprosy, and we made a mistake in taking them in!
The witch hid her head under a thick hood, so I couldn't see her expression, but judging from her exposed hair and limited skin, she should be a Mosesad, or at least from the Western Continent.

And those pagans, they came from the primitive continent in the south, all had sloppy and dirty beards. Father, I really don't know why you took them in at that time.

I will listen to you, but the prerequisite is that you recover and stay with me.

The witch waved me over and handed me the jar of dark green herbs.

I didn't know what happened at the time, but I moved slowly towards the witch. She hugged my shoulders, leaned over and whispered in my ear, telling me that she was my friend and that friends should help each other.

I took the herbs from her and agreed to her terms.

Kill those pagans. When I woke up, dark green ointment and a small packet of potion appeared next to my pillow.

The ointment will cure your ailment.

The potion can kill those hypocritical pagans without anyone noticing.
