my dream adventure

Chapter 191 Mandarin Duck Hot Pot (61)

"In this way, there is nothing special about this skirt. Why can't I take it off after I put it on?" Sister Moon finally asked the most critical question.

"There is no problem with the skirt. As far as I know, it is just an ordinary evening dress. As for why it can't be taken off after wearing it, I don't know why." Baru said.

He refused very directly, implying that I don't know what you are talking about, I can't understand anyway.

Lin Yuan was stunned by his attitude, and he and Sanyue looked at each other in blank dismay. Judging by the situation, the other party was unwilling to tell them the truth.

This would be troublesome. This was the first time he encountered a situation where he refused to cooperate. Could it be that he really had to do it directly.

Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment, "Balu, do you really not know about this little skirt?"

"Of course, do I have any reason to deceive you? The skirt is mine and I can't take it off. I will give it to you later. I am at a disadvantage." Baru argued.

Lin Yuan was silent for another moment without speaking, walked to Sanyue and sat down next to him, feeling a little inexplicable.

Sanyue also shook his head, asking him not to act impulsively, no one knows what supernatural powers this person who has lived for 3000 years has, if there is no chance of winning this battle, then it is better not to fight.

"I understand, this is your decision." Lin Yuan nodded slightly, without further questioning.

Baloo continued to drink, and the whole bonfire party fell into a completely awkward silence, with each other having their own secrets.

The next day, when they were about to go on the road, Sister Moon didn't put on her armor at all. She found that the defense power of this skirt was even better than her own armor. It couldn't be pierced by swords, so it was better to wear it as defensive equipment.

The weight of the skirt is even lighter than the armor, so it is more convenient to move, but the skirt is not long-sleeved, and the parts that can be defended are relatively limited.

And the ability to resist attacks is also average. It will be a disadvantage when encountering such brute force enemies, but it is very effective in dealing with sword attacks.

Since Baloo didn't want to tell them the origin of the skirt, there was no reason for him to take off the little skirt and return it to him.

Sister Moon thinks this way, if the other party doesn't want to be honest with each other, there is no need to talk nonsense.

"Walk along the west side of the grassland, and walk under a big banyan tree, where the sacred cow lives all year round." Lin Yuan took out his notebook and muttered a few words. This is the strategy guide he got from Balu yesterday. .

It's just that after yesterday's accident, everyone felt somewhat distrustful of this seemingly amiable immortal.

Especially in March, after returning to the tent, he has been fidgeting, wondering if there is any tangled question, Lin Yuan pressed him to ask, but he refused to say more, but his intuition was not right.

The atmosphere of the whole team was also a little awkward because of this incident, and Lin Yuan didn't know how to adjust it back.

"How long will it take to get to the banyan tree?" Xiaoman was still cheerful, and his mood was not hindered by yesterday's accident.

"Well, I heard from Balu that the terrain of the grassland sometimes changes suddenly. Do you remember the last time we were in the cave? The map of the system is not stable. Sometimes it is long and sometimes it is short, which is normal." Lin Yuan scratched I let down my hair.

In the scorching sun, they all put on hats and silk scarves, especially Lin Yuan, who wrapped his head in a white robe three times inside and outside. Some people thought he had some skin disease. The kind that would fester.

Sister Moon didn't say anything while wearing a suspender skirt, her two snow-white arms were exposed.

"Don't we have to have a head if we have to walk all day?" Xiao Man was a little panting with her hips on her hips. Because of her poor physical strength, she even summoned her spiritual pet to serve as a mount.

Before they left, Balu didn't propose to provide them with cattle and sheep as convenient mounts, and Lin Yuan and the others didn't have the nerve to ask.

At that time, I got someone else's little skirt for nothing, Xiaoman did something wrong, and I haven't compensated him yet, and now I want to borrow someone's hard-working livestock, which is a bit heartless.

Although Lin Yuan's face is thick, it's not so thick.

"I asked Balu a little bit. It is said that the banyan tree is very eye-catching from a distance. As long as you get close to it, you will be able to see it." He put away the map, and in a blink of an eye saw the boy carrying the package in a daze. Lin Yuan was a little bit wonder.

"What are you thinking about?" Lin Yuan rubbed the boy's shoulder.

Sanyue was still in a daze, not paying much attention to his movements, "No, I was thinking that Balu is a bit strange, I don't know if you have felt that when Sister Moon put on the skirt, he didn't feel offended at all, on the contrary It's a little joy."

"What do you mean? You mean, he just wants someone to wear a dress, right?"

"That's right. I've seen some similar curses in my dreams. Through the soul entrusted to the object, the energy of the living body can be transformed. Or, there is another possibility that the ghost on the skirt will occupy the owner of the body. Soul." March told something like a ghost story.

"Wait, your words gave me goosebumps." Lin Yuan shivered, a little startled by March's conjecture.

If Balu cherishes his wife, after his wife dies, he uses a secret method to preserve his wife’s soul in the clothes, so that some women will wear them in the future, and they can exchange their souls with women. This kind of ghost story, he seems I've heard something similar in literature.

But if it is true, it is a very troublesome thing.

"Well, should we tell Sister Moon, will this possibility scare her?" Lin Yuan whispered, afraid of being heard by others.

The two people in front were still on their way earnestly, and they didn't notice anything unusual about the two behind.

"Don't worry, if there is no evidence, it means it's just a possibility, and you don't need to say it. You will observe her every move later. If there is anything unusual, we will take the next step." March Still very rational and dare not act rashly.

It's useless to say it now, the skirt can't be taken off, even if there is a curse, it can't be solved, it's better to take one step at a time.

"Well, there is one more question. Do you think that the story about the cow that Balu told is a bit wrong." Lin Yuan leaned sideways and spoke in Sanyue's ear.

Sanyue pondered for a while, "Balu is amiable on the surface, but his behavior gives people a sense of weirdness. He has lived on the grassland for 3000 years. Isn't he lonely? Why don't he live outside? Is it really because of loneliness?"

Lin Yuan thought for a while, "We don't know this person well. Xiaoman trusted him at first, because he saved her life and she was defenseless, so we didn't have time to ask him about his specific origin. Immortal, could it be Is there no price, this curse is too cheap for him."

"I understand that the transaction between humans and gods is an exchange of equal value. It is impossible for humans to gain benefits without losing any price." March nodded slightly.

He thought of himself, so why not.

If you want to gain power, you also need to hand over your important items to trade, maybe happiness, maybe faith or wisdom, or, it is the simple freedom of being a human being.

"He acted too lightly and unrealistically. If you ask me, there must be something hidden from us." Lin Yuan spoke righteously, kicking away the stones at his feet.

"Last time, we found a corpse in the cave. I don't know if you still remember it. The cause of death of that person should be a heart attack, and there were no obvious injuries on his body. According to Balu, many hunters wanted to obtain the flesh and blood of the divine cow to obtain Longevity. But why do I feel that this divine cow is a bait after all, to attract these greedy hunters." Sanyue's tone was a bit mysterious.

At first glance, Lin Yuan thought it wasn't the case, but when he looked back, he suddenly realized that it was so.

"The meat of the divine cow can live forever. That's a pretense to attract hunters to look for it. Afterwards, the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole followed..." He turned his head with his eyes wide open, probably shocked by his own thoughts. shocked.

Thinking about it this way, Nabalu may be the black hand behind the scenes. He designed this trap to let everyone jump in. What is the purpose? for the purpose of retaliation.

"Wait, then tell me, should we still look for the god beef? It's a trap, should we still jump into it?" Lin Yuan was a little flustered, especially now, feeling a little helpless when he opened his bow and couldn't turn back.

The main task still needs to be completed. If you don’t complete it, you have to wait for fifteen days to pass. Everyone has worked hard for so long to get a task failed. As the first teamwork, it is too much to fail.

"You don't have to look back, even if it's a trap, you can use the other's way and return it to the other body." Sanyue played tricks for a while, then listened to Lin Yuan's words.

Xiao Man and Sister Yue Yue talked and laughed at the front all the time, completely unaware that the two behind them had planned a careful plan.

"Can your method work?" Lin Yuan was a little dubious.

"When the time comes, play by ear. If the divine cow really exists, it will not be difficult for us to get the meat. But if it is a scam, everyone can escape calmly."

"However, Baloo said that you should not have the intention of attacking the divine bull, or you will be cursed." He knew that March wanted him to prepare for the battle in advance and set up traps, but he was still a little scared, he wasn't A person who likes conflict.

March tried to comfort him, "There's no rush, as long as the other party doesn't do anything, we don't need to do it either. It's very simple, but we need to have a second hand."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lin Yuan nodded and agreed.

After walking for a long time, about five or six kilometers away, Xiao Man, who was sitting on top of his horse, saw the big banyan tree in the distance and shouted excitedly.

The two behind them made eye contact for a while, and Lin Yuan ran to the front to speak, "Let's stop for a while and take a rest, we are too tired from the journey."

"We've already come here, why don't we go there at once?" Xiao Man didn't understand.
