Chapter 640: Hospitality:
The strong man in the white mask ramen shop chased out with a kitchen knife.
Hai Xiaosheng retreated continuously and retreated to the street.
"You lied, you lied!!" The owner of the ramen shop looked extremely angry, and the hand holding the knife was shaking violently.
Then, the clothes on the strong man burst open inch by inch, and his muscles continued to burst his clothes like raised stones.
Hai Xiaosheng's lips curved into a smile.
Just when the strong man seemed to be about to transform, a man wearing a red rabbit face mask suddenly fell from the sky. He quickly came to the strong man's side, put his hand on the strong man's shoulder and said: "Calm down, this is a misunderstanding. "
The amazing thing is that the owner of the ramen shop really calmed down and his body quickly returned to its original state.
He glared at Hai Xiaosheng fiercely, and then returned to the ramen shop.
Hai Xiaosheng, Green Hidden Dragon, and Weida looked at the man in the red rabbit mask who appeared.
This person's aura is very strong, much stronger than Zhan Tu's.
"Overlord level!" Hai Xiaosheng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the man in the red rabbit mask and feeling surprised.
He didn't expect that there would be a dominant figure in a small village.
"The guest from afar has surprised you." The man in the red rabbit mask came to Hai Xiaosheng and bowed humbly.
Hai Xiaosheng asked: "The rule of the village is that you must tell the truth?"
The man in the red rabbit mask nodded and said: "Yes, the rule that Tumian Village has followed for generations is that if you don't tell the truth, you will be driven out of the village. "
If you don't tell the truth, the people in the village will notice it and anger them."
The man in the red rabbit mask looked at the Green Hidden Dragon and Weida behind Hai Xiaosheng, and immediately explained: " But since you are guests from afar and don’t understand the rules of Tumian Village, I can suppress this matter for you, and then you can’t lie anymore.”
Hai Xiaosheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said with concentration: “Then this Is this rule only for outsiders?"
He stared at the man in the red rabbit mask.
The rules only say that the truth must be told, but they don’t say whether the rules include the entire village.
This one is very important.
If Aboriginal people are not included, it means a very bad situation.
They must tell the truth, but people in Tumian Village can lie.
Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the scope of the rules.
"Of course not." The man in the red rabbit mask smiled slightly and said, "Everyone in Tumian Village must tell the truth." "
Okay, I understand, thank you for the reminder."
Hai Xiaosheng turned around and walked towards the Green Hidden Dragon and Weida whispered: "Let's go, I'll go back."
After the three people left, the man in the red rabbit mask, the owner of the ramen shop and the people on the roadside all stared at the direction they left. It's a bit weird.
Returning to the ancient red-tiled dome building, Hai Xiaosheng went directly to Li Ran's room.
"Have you known the rules here for a long time?" Hai Xiaosheng asked.
"Yes, you must tell the truth here." Li Ran said.
Hai Xiaosheng said angrily, "But why didn't you say anything just now?"
"You didn't even ask," Li Ran said.
Hai Xiaosheng lost his temper after being retorted by Li Ran. After he calmed down, he said, "Is this rule only for outsiders?"
Li Ran nodded and said, "Yes, people in this village do not need to abide by this rule. ."
"I almost got into an argument with someone at the ramen shop. Why are they so sensitive to lying?" Hai Xiaosheng asked.
Li Ran shook his head and said, "I guess it has something to do with their masks."
"Masks?" Hai Xiaosheng became confused.
Li Ran explained: "What I mean is that originally everyone in this village had to tell the truth, but one day someone suddenly wore a mask and discovered that the big mask could ignore the rules of telling the truth, so lies spread like a plague. Later, more and more people wore masks. They all wore masks face to face, and no one could tell who was lying."
Hai Xiaosheng understood, and he said: "In other words, the rabbit mask can ignore the rules. ."
"This is just my speculation, and I'm not sure." Li Ran said.
While the two were talking, the shouts of the head of Rabbit Village came from the round hall of the ancient building.
"Guests from afar, the banquet has begun."
Li Ran looked at Hai Xiaosheng and suggested: "It's best to cooperate with them first and see what they are going to do."
Hai Xiaosheng also had the same idea.
The head of Rabbit Village held a banquet and entertained them warmly.
There is a large dining table in the round hall of the ancient building, and there is a dazzling array of food on the table.
"Visitors from afar, your arrival has made Tumian Village shine." "
We have had no guests in Tumian Village for many years."
The head of Tumian Village raised his wine glass and shouted enthusiastically: "Let's have a drink together to welcome you."
Everyone raised their glasses and looked at the village chief of Tumian Village with smiles on their faces, curious about how they drank while wearing masks.
The result was no surprise. The head of Tumian Village took off his rabbit mask, exposed his mouth, and drank the wine in one gulp.
"Drink, why don't you drink." The village chief of Tumian Village looked at the people who were holding wine glasses but not drinking in confusion.
Li Ran raised his glass and said, "There's no poison in the glass, right?"
Everyone heard this and said, "I'm going to go, Chaos Heart is crazy, right?" He said in front of the host, "Is there any poison in the wine glass?"
However, the head of Tumian Village was not angry, but laughed, and ordered Zhan Tu: "Go and drink the guest's glass of wine." Zhan Tu walked
to Li Ran's side, picked up the glass and drank. After finishing it, he said boldly: "It's not poisonous, you can drink it with confidence."
Li Ran said: "How do I know whether you have taken the antidote in advance?"
As soon as these words came out, except Hai Xiaosheng and Su Bingyao, everyone else They all looked at Li Ran in shock.
Does the Heart of Chaos not want to live? Is it challenging the bottom line of the chief of Tumian Village again and again?
But what surprised them was that Zhantu, the head of Tumian Village, and the surrounding guards were not angry. "Guests don't have to worry. We use the best grape juice to make the wine. These dishes are also delicacies made by every household in Tumian Village. They are non-toxic and can be eaten with confidence." said the head of Tumian Village.
After that, he took the lead in trying every dish.
Li Ran put down his wine glass, and once again said something that hit the other person's heart: "Can the village chief lie when he puts on a mask?"
After this sentence fell.
The whole place was dead silent!
The Heart of Chaos is causing trouble. Can we still eat this meal?
Just when everyone thought they were blasted out or there was a big battle.
But the head of Tumian Village laughed out loud: "The guests misunderstood. Wearing a mask and not showing your true face is the rule of our Tumian Village. It has been passed down from generation to generation. It has nothing to do with saying not to lie." "Eat quickly,
one The delicious food is about to get cold."
The village chief added.
"Is it okay if I don't eat?" Li Ran asked again.
"Of course it's okay. This is your freedom as a guest, but if you don't eat, the villagers will be unhappy." The village chief pointed to the entrance of the ancient building.
At this time, the entrance was filled with villagers wearing white masks. They all looked at the people in the rotunda with extremely strange eyes.
"Commander, it seems they won't let us go unless we eat." Sloan whispered.
Li Ran said again: "Village Chief, why do you think this sounds like a threat to me?"
Damn it, Chaos Heart, you are crazy.
Wherever does it hurt?
Can you be more diplomatic and sophisticated? Even if you don't want to eat, don't say it in front of people.
"Guest, this is not a threat. This is the highest etiquette for entertaining guests in Tumian Village. Guests must not take it seriously." The village chief of Tumian Village still had a cheerful tone. He said to Li Ran: "Guests, please just Just treat this as your own home, you're welcome."
Li Ran smiled slightly, said nothing more, but sat down and drank the wine in his hand.
"Just pretend, don't really drink." Li Ran immediately said to everyone in the soul sharing group.
The method of pretending to eat has long been spread in Kaioden.
For example, what should you do if you encounter force majeure within the rules and have to eat?
The organic ghost used a method similar to blindness to eat.
That is to throw the food into the storage space when it is close to the mouth, creating a visual illusion and making it look like it is really eaten.
In fact, this type of method is often seen in magic.
"These are all good dishes. Guests, please feel free to eat." The head of Tumian Village said enthusiastically.
With the cooperation of "magic" techniques, everyone "ate" all the dishes on the table.
After having had enough wine and food, Li Ran took the lead and stood up and said to the village chief of Tumian Village: "Thank you for your hospitality." "As you
should, you should, the guests will rest in the house later. There will be performances in Tumian Village at midnight." The village chief said.
"Okay."
Then they returned to their respective houses.
"There is something wrong with the food. We will all fall asleep in an hour." Li Ran said through mind sharing.
"So your plan is to take advantage of the situation?" Eileen asked.
"Yes, they should show their true colors at midnight while we are asleep. By then we will catch them all and ask about the whereabouts of the Jiuli Pot fragments." Li Ran said.
"So they can really lie when they wear masks?" Qing Zhilong asked.
"So far, yes, lying will make them go berserk, but they can lie after wearing a mask. And there are conditions for lying. Both parties must wear masks. Once one party does not wear a mask, it will trigger The rules of lying, if one party is angered and both parties wear masks and lie, it will be fine," Li Ran said.
"It took me a long time to figure out what Tumian Village is, it's a village of lies!" said Concubine Kagura.
"By the way, Black Turtle Tree, Yi Shen, Xiao'e, if there is a battle later, we may need your help. After the trouble here is solved, we will go find what you want to do together."
" The turtle tribe mentioned in Tumian Village may have some relationship with Xuanwu. We can go and have a look at that time." "The
whereabouts of Queen Mother of the West and Shen Gong are unknown. God Yi will go with us for the time being."
God Yi and Xiao E and Uncle Xuangui said there was no problem.
Nor did their conversation escape them.
Although they are NPCs, their role is still very important.
"Okay, it's time for us to go to sleep. There are patrols outside the door." Li Ran said.
At this moment, Li Ran has become the leader of their group.
Everyone obeyed his commands and orders.
After Li Ran finished speaking, patrolling people appeared outside their door.
It was to confirm whether they fell asleep.
"It seems everyone has fallen asleep."
There was movement outside the door.
Li Ran wanted to laugh. It was really ridiculous that these people used such low-level methods in order to obtain the Jiuli Pot fragments.
Of course, if it weren't for the prompt from the Heart of Chaos, it might not have gone so smoothly here.
Fighting may break out early.
However, what is coming will still come.
He wanted to see what the hell was going on in this village.
I am in the hospital to accompany the childbirth. Please try to update as much as possible. I may ask for leave at any time, so I hope you can forgive me.
