When he heard "The Lost Crown", some memories suddenly triggered in Lied's mind.
He put his arms around his arms, squinted his eyes and leaned in front of Irene, and asked seriously:
"Did your ancestors believe in any weird religion?"
Irene folded her hands on her chest, looking a little angry and replied:
"How is it possible? We, the Ocean Race, have been believers of the great race Kungu for generations, and have never had any other strange beliefs besides this!"
Lied took a deep breath and continued to ask:
"... Then your ancestors, did you have a fanatical follower of a strange octopus?"
Irene raised her head and thought for a while, then said:
"Big Brother, do you mean Lord Kleinus? Because the Pillar of Eternal Life does not have a high status in all Kungu, and it has been in a state of sleep for a long time, so there are very few followers of Lord Kleinus now. .But looking at the records, my great-great-great-grandfather seems to have believed in him, and went to the North Sea himself for Mr. Clenus, and... died there."
Lied nodded and raised a finger:
"One last question. Is the lost crown you're talking about about this big and tall, with things like Merlot beads and red coral inlaid on it..."
Irene opened her mouth wide all of a sudden, with a look of great surprise on her face, and her voice rose unconsciously:
"Big brother, have you seen it?!"
Lied unconsciously rubbed the space between his brows.
He was more than meowing. He had seen it before, when he was at the bottom of the sea, he personally gave the crown to Lord Lingwu to put on his head. Later, seeing that Lord Lingwu liked it, he didn't snatch it from her, and gave it away as soon as he said it. Now it is estimated that the woman took it out to wear it when she was fine, sitting quietly on the throne alone and beautiful.
Lid replied honestly:
"I've seen it before, and I know where it is. But it's hard to say whether I can get it back. The crown you're looking for is in the hands of a terrifying woman. The biggest feature of that woman is... you can never take any of her own things." A penny is cheap, it’s not that her things will magically become hers as soon as they pass through her hands.”
Erin tilted her head and said doubtfully:
"Then, isn't that unreasonable?"
Lied nodded:
"Yes, there is no reason to talk to that woman. No one in the world understands that woman better than me. The logic of her actions is difficult for ordinary people to guess. For example, I told her today that you give me the crown, otherwise the sea people will be killed. If you want to fight with Yunhai, she will definitely tell me, what does it matter to me if the ocean tribe fights with Yunhai? You, Yunhai, are incapable of protecting your own people, so you just blamed me? This makes no sense. The law has been spoken."
Erin bit her lip and whispered:
"Bad woman."
Li De immediately felt that although Irene was young, she was sensible, and her vision was very accurate, and she immediately pointed out the core of the problem. Lid sighed and said to her:
"But I'm still willing to give it a try, although I don't know if it will succeed. Just you have to understand that if I help you get that crown, you have to pay some benefits to have a chance to get it. After that, I want to meet your father and talk about some things. Cooperation matters. To put it simply, your father needs to promise me some conditions before I will give him the crown."
Erin showed a smile:
"I know! Thank you, big brother! As long as the request is not too much, my father should accept it. He also doesn't want to start a war in winter. We sea people like to spend the winter in the deep sea. Although the food is not so abundant, it is very warm there. You can also float around in the turbulent current on the bottom of the sea, which is very fun.”
Lid held out his hand to her and said:
"Okay. Now I'll take you out. When we meet someone later, you may need to sing another song, which is considered as an advance payment. In addition, no matter who asks, you just say that you sang the lullaby. Those people fell asleep, and then you sneaked out by yourself, just bumped into me, understand?"
With an expression of "I understand", Irene replied seriously:
"Don't worry, I will never betray big brother! Because big brother came to save me."
Irene put her tiny hand in Lid's, and let Lid pull herself out of the sink.
The moment the pink fish tail touched the ground, it transformed into a pair of human feet, leaving a string of water stains on the ground.
Li De led her away from the lord's mansion of Yunhai lightly.
At the same time, Zhiluo Mountain.
Alaiya was the first to realize that Lid was missing, but she soon saw Lid's coat on the branch, and there was a note in it: I have something to go out, don't look for me, there are dark organizations Protected by my side.
Although Alaiya was a little worried, she still obeyed her young master's arrangement and stayed in Zhiluo Mountain to wait for him. Around evening, Bai Huang, who was out for a walk, returned to the camp and said to Alaya:
"Hey, why are you the only one here, where is Lid?"
Alaya handed the note in her hand to Bai Huang.
After Bai Huang looked at it, she nodded, and Alaya inexplicably felt that she was a little out of her mind.
Sure enough, not long after, Baihuang said to Alaya:
"I feel the presence of my elder brother. Maybe blood is thicker than water. When I was on the mountain just now, he looked at me from a distance. I couldn't see him, but I knew he was there. Lied was right, My elder brother is indeed living in seclusion in Zhiluo Mountain. Just now I suddenly thought of a way, maybe I can meet him."
Aliya asked:
"what way?"
Bai Huang pointed to the mountain, and said to Alaya:
"There, there is a cliff."
Alaiya didn't understand what Baihuang meant.
Bai Huang said softly:
"I'll jump from there."
Alaya understood in an instant. She didn't know what to say, for a moment she wanted to say that Bai Huang's idea was naive and radical, but when she saw Bai Huang's eyes, she felt that she could understand Bai Huang completely. It is human nature to want to do something but not be able to do it. The frustration caused by that sense of powerlessness is likely to accompany her life. Alayah has also experienced it herself. She always feels that her strength is still too weak, which makes her family The young master suffered a lot of grievances.
Alaya said to Bai Huang:
"But... if your feeling is wrong, this jump may be lost."
Bai Huang replied:
"Yeah, but my aunt still trusts her intuition. Besides, with my elder brother's character, he can't bring back the things he has decided. Since he has decided not to see us, maybe he will leave weaving tomorrow. Luo Shan, go to the next place to live in seclusion. I have to think about it, maybe this is the only chance in my life, and I want to try it."
Alayya touched the sword at her waist and said:
"If there is an accident, I will try my best to save you."
Bai Huang nodded, smiled and said to Alaya:
"...don't tell Heggie, I just sent him elsewhere."
