I'm not a pet

Chapter 176
The discussion about the Man of Destiny came to an abrupt end, and the room fell into an awkward silence again, while Xiaozhu continued to eat soup and steamed buns with his belly open.

"By the way, just now you said that the Demon Sealing Tower appeared the night before yesterday?" Elder Luo suddenly broke the deadlock of silence and asked Mei Shui.

"It was the night before, and it was not dark yet." Mei Shui replied.

After receiving the answer, Elder Luo fell into deep thought again until the meal was over.

After lunch, Ding Dong said that Mei Shui and Lu Yunchu had cleaned up the rooms for the two to rest, but the two had their own thoughts, how could they rest?
Ever since Elder Luo learned of Lu Yunchu's identity, he lost enthusiasm for him.This made Lu Yunchu no longer have any hope of getting Cistanche as a gift in a fair and honest manner.The descendants of each other's enemies, it is generous enough to keep you for dinner. If you still expect the other party to give you the treasures of the clan, it is really a daydream...

Fortunately, this time he doesn't have to take the Cistanche, as long as he confirms that the Cistanche is still in Nuoma Village.Besides, Norma Village is so hidden and hard to find. If Mei Shui hadn't led the way, he and Xiaozhu would have been impossible to find it. It is estimated that the black-robed man would not be able to find Norma Village to obtain Cistanche without a guide. .

In this case, let's wait for Mei Shui to finish talking with the grandparents of the Luo family, and after telling Elder Luo to guard the cistanche, they will return to Oasis City together!
Mei Shui didn't think so.

Since the master told him to protect Lu Yunchu to Nuoma Village and retrieve the cistanche, he must fulfill his master's order before he can go back.Now that the task is only halfway through, and the most important link has not been completed, how could he give up?

Although the master never mentioned his origin with the Norma tribe to him, he could see from his childhood that everyone in the Norma tribe, even the leader like Elder Luo, respected and respected Master Mei Shan very much.

Mei Shui looked at Lu Yunchu who was sitting in the main room with the piggy in his arms and refused to go to the side room to rest, gave him a calm look, turned around and asked Elder Luo:
"Ding Dong said there was a change in Lake Noma, when did it happen? Does it matter?"

Hearing this question, Elder Luo cast his eyes on the drowsy little pig in Lu Yunchu's arms, thought for a moment and said, "The day before yesterday when it was about to fall into the night, an abnormality occurred in the lake."

According to Elder Luo's narration, Nuoma Lake, as the only water source in the village, has coexisted with Nuoma Village for nearly a thousand years.As soon as it got dark the night before, some villagers found that there was no wind and no human movement, and suddenly a lot of ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, which should be gentle and calm. The lake water was surging rapidly, and there seemed to be a huge mouth sucking the lake water , and finally formed a large whirlpool with the center of the lake as the center.

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for about one stick of incense, and the entire lake surface returned to its former calm, and there has been no abnormal phenomenon until today.

"For thousands of years, there has never been such a vision in Lake Norma..." Elder Luo worriedly shaved his beard, and looked at the sleeping pig again with a pair of piercing eyes.

Seeing that he was always looking at Little Pig, Mei Shui couldn't help frowning and thinking, and asked after a while, "But what happened before the dawn of time the day before yesterday?"

Elder Luo nodded: "Exactly."

"Could it be...Could it be that Grandpa Luo thinks that this vision is related to the Demon Sealing Tower and the Man of Destiny?" Mei Shui asked tentatively.

Elder Luo was noncommittal, and remained silent with a thoughtful expression on his face.

The little pig, whose eyelids were already in Lu Yunchu's arms, heard sporadic words such as "Sealing the Demon Tower" and "The Man of Destiny" in his ears, and couldn't help but wake up and doze off, and opened his eyes to look blankly. The two who were talking on the opposite side looked up again, and Lu Yunchu was still sitting upright.

Realizing that the little pig had woken up, Lu Yunchu lowered his head and stretched out his hand, smiled softly, and gently stroked her head.

"Have you ever gone to the lake to find out?" Mei Shui asked again.

Elder Luo shook his head helplessly. The villagers are all native landlubbers. Except for splashing water by the lake when they were young, no one in the village is familiar with water.

When the vision happened this time, the villagers were terrified, but there were several middle-aged men who asked to go to the bottom of the lake to investigate, but Elder Luo refused them one by one.

Noma Lake is bottomless, and it is not known whether this vision is due to unknown dangers. In any case, he will not let the villagers easily take risks.

"Grandpa Luo, I can go down to the lake to investigate!" Mei Shui took the task with puffed up chest.

"Brother Shui, don't do it!" Ding Dang on the side immediately objected: "How can your three-legged cat dive into the deepest part of the lake with its watery nature?"

Although he knew that Ding Dong cared about him, Mei Shui still scratched his head at a loss when he heard her words. It is true that he had only splashed water by the lake when he was young, and he was not very familiar with swimming; Diving, then he won't...

Seeing that his granddaughter objected, Elder Luo also stopped talking.He watched Mei Shui grow up. Although he knew that his mana was profound, water and mana were two different things, so he couldn't let him take this risk.

"That's all!" Elder Luo said loudly: "Lake Nuoma has been calm for the past two days, presumably it was caused by the man of destiny entering the tower that day. When you return to Oasis City, you can tell Senior Mei about this matter, maybe Senior Know the mystery."

It seems... as if... that's the only way to go.

"If Elder Luo is trustworthy, I can dive into the bottom of the lake to find out."

Lu Yunchu at the side finally made a sound.

As he spoke, the other three turned their gazes to him.

"Brother Lu, is he familiar with water?" Mei Shui asked with concern.

"Familiar." Lu Yunchu always cherishes words like gold.

But Xiaozhu remembered, regardless of whether Lu Yunchu was familiar with water or not, at least he had the blue sea pearl that Pan Ruqi gave him, and that pearl had the function of avoiding water. He has already traveled to the blue sea...

Mei Shui received Lu Yunchu's affirmative answer, and turned her attention to Elder Luo.If Elder Brother Lu can help Grandpa Luo explore the bottom of the lake this time, will Grandpa Luo let go of the past...

Lu Yunchu's idea is not so utilitarian and complicated.

Hearing the conversation between the two just now, when he mentioned the changes at the bottom of the lake, his first reaction was that there might be monsters appearing. Since the others are not familiar with water, he must go down to the lake to check it out.

"This..." Elder Luo was a little embarrassed when he saw that he volunteered.

If there were no grievances and grievances from his ancestors mixed in, he would still appreciate this upright, neither humble nor overbearing young man in front of him very much, not to mention that he is also the owner of the destiny... pig.

The embarrassment was because he himself didn't know if there was any danger at the bottom of the lake. Could the young man in front of him overcome that danger?If the bottom of the lake is really dangerous, but Lu Yunchu can't conquer it, then wouldn't he...

"Elder Luo doesn't need to worry, I will definitely find out the truth to keep the villagers safe." Lu Yunchu seemed to see Elder Luo's embarrassment, and said firmly.
