Chapter 269 Your most important thing
The middle-aged drunkard frowned. After the old man in black robe finished explaining the specific content of the gambling, he turned around and left, and then suddenly disappeared in the crowd.
After he left there, he kept mumbling to himself.
"I didn't fucking agree at all! Huh, that old man, what's going on with that thing? I didn't agree at all!"
"Damn it! This kind of bet can't be established at all! I didn't agree!"
Even so, he was still full of fear deep in his heart, because there were too many strange and mysterious powers in this world, and people generally would rather believe that they existed than not.
Even if he didn't agree, the bet might have been established, and it involved some mysterious and terrifying power.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged drunkard shuddered.
He recalled the details of the bet.
"No contact with any liquid until the new day comes..."
What on earth is this?
The fear deep inside the middle-aged drunkard was deep. He took a deep breath, and then decided to be as careful as possible not to touch any liquid for the next time.
It was afternoon now, and there was still some time before night, so he had to hold on.
"careful!"
Suddenly, the door of a nearby room opened, and the fat maid poured the sewage in the bucket directly from the house.
He was so frightened that he barely managed to avoid it by dodging violently. Fortunately, he was not splashed with a drop of water.
"Watch your fucking attention!"
"Fuck you! Don't you know how to hide?"
This street was originally a gathering place for foreigners, and the folk customs were fierce. The fat maid did not shy away from yelling at him, which made the surrounding citizens burst into laughter.
The middle-aged man had completely sobered up. He took a deep breath, frowned deeply, and began to avoid all kinds of liquids very carefully.
"Be careful and go home now. If you are outside, there will be too many unexpected situations."
He touched his pocket. The money stolen today was enough. Let's go home.
However, after walking through this street, he saw several familiar drunk friends walking towards him with smiles on their faces and small wine barrels in their hands.
Drunk friends shouted loudly, smelling of alcohol:
"You want to drink, hahahahaha, let's treat you to a drink!"
"Come on, come on! Drink, drink, drink!"
The middle-aged man was shocked and turned pale. He immediately stepped back and then ran towards his home. He no longer wanted to stay outside for a moment.
"Hey, why did this guy run away?"
Those drunkards were completely confused. They had never encountered such a situation before. They were invited to drink and they refused to drink?
"Huhuhu..."
"boom!"
He was panting continuously as he ran, and suddenly he heard a thunder. When he raised his head, he saw that the sky was darkening, as if it was going to rain soon!
He suddenly felt scared deep inside.
It was clear that the sky was clear just now, but why is it suddenly going to rain? Why is this happening?
"boom!"
The sound of thunder sounded and the sky was filled with clouds.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but suddenly the middle-aged man stopped. He was extremely shocked and saw a pair of cold yellow snake eyes in the dark clouds in the sky. The coldness contained in them made people feel extremely frightened deep inside. For a moment, A terrifying chill instantly spread to the tips of his fingers.
It stared at the tiny humans on the ground.
That is……
what!
"ah!"
He nearly collapsed and yelled, ran like crazy, and finally arrived at the door of his home a few minutes later, banging on the door repeatedly.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Open the door! Open the door quickly, dad is back! Open the door quickly!"
After knocking for a while, the thirteen-year-old daughter immediately opened the door and looked at her father with joy on her face.
"Dad, you're back!"
"Boom!" Thunder came again.
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and walked quickly into the door. Cold sweat continued to flow out, because he soon saw traces of raindrops falling on the ground outside.
"Wow."
It's raining.
He was terrified.
It's that thing's fault. It can actually make it rain!
The middle-aged man locked the door tightly and didn't want to leave the house again.
"Dad, do you want some water?" The daughter came over with water.
He suddenly shouted in fear:
"No, I don't want to drink anything!"
"oh."
After a long time, the middle-aged man only felt sleepy and weak, and his body wanted to sleep very much.
So tired.
Drunk, beaten, frightened, and running wildly, his limited physical strength had completely reached its limit, and he could no longer hold on, so he fell dizzy on the bed.
It's very close to what should be midnight now.
I'm afraid that in another hour, I will win.
He finally couldn't resist the sleepiness that kept coming, so he could only turn his head and look at his daughter and said, "Dad needs a good rest. Don't let anyone in before tomorrow, okay? Baby."
The little girl nodded and said very obediently: "Okay, Dad, I understand."
It would be fine when he woke up, and maybe he would actually get a pound of gold. He was so nervous and frightened that he wanted to sleep, because as long as he fell asleep, he would no longer be anxious.
Just like usual, as long as you are drunk, all the bad things in reality will disappear.
if only……
Finally, the middle-aged man fell into a deep sleep.
Unconsciously, he felt a cold and damp feeling on his face.
"Ah!"
The middle-aged man suddenly woke up and sat up, and then he was shocked to find that it was his daughter standing beside him crying!
"Woo..."
The crying girl looked at her father, holding some coins in her hand, and said painfully:
"Dad, you work hard outside again, earn so much money, and you are injured, but I can't help you at all. I feel so useless."
"Can you, can you not get hurt again, Dad."
She looked at her father with sincerity and begged.
"I don't want you to get hurt, Dad, it doesn't matter if there is no bread to eat, I can eat beans."
He touched the tears on his face in a daze, and couldn't speak for a long time.
I...
All along, the middle-aged man lied to his daughter, saying that the money he earned was earned through hard work, and never said that he was a thief.
She was proud of her father.
And because of this, she felt that she was a useless burden.
But how could she be a burden?
He was originally useless, with no wife, no family, no children. It was she who suddenly appeared at the door, the baby on that snowy night that gave him hope and courage...
It was not me who saved her, but she who saved me.
Then, he realized something terrible!
He lost the bet and was about to be deprived of the most important thing!
The next moment, without any sign, the middle-aged man saw the old man in black robe standing behind his daughter.
"You lost."
His voice was extremely cold, without even a trace of human emotion. He slowly stretched out his old scaly palm and gently placed it on the girl's head.
An unprecedented huge fear rose in the depths of the middle-aged man's heart, and he suddenly stood up and howled loudly!
"No, no, no, no, no! Please, give me another chance! No! No!"
The daughter's body turned into a lifelike stone sculpture almost in the blink of an eye. Even so, it was still as beautiful as when she was flesh and blood.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh! No!"
The middle-aged man's tears burst out crazily. He hugged the stone sculpture of his daughter in pain, constantly praying and repenting, wanting the black-robed old man to give him another chance.
"Hahahahahahahaha!"
The black-robed old man laughed mockingly, completely ignoring the man.
The next moment, he pushed open the door and walked out, and then turned into a huge and powerful black dragon, flying directly into the sky and leaving the city called Rus.
——
Half a month later.
The dirty and completely crazy middle-aged man sat on the street holding the stone sculpture of the girl, muttering to himself.
"No, no... give me another chance... no..."
His eyes were confused and completely lifeless.
It looked like a flesh and blood body that had been dead for a long time but was still moving.
Many people sympathized with it, but ordinary people would avoid it when they saw the stone sculpture. They dared not provoke powerful extraordinary people and unpredictable mysterious existences.
"It's here."
Two men walked out of the crowd on the street. They came to the completely crazy middle-aged man, and one of the "old men" squatted down.
That was an "old man" with deep nasolabial folds, snow-white hair, deep eyes and wisdom.
And behind him was a very handsome middle-aged man with silver hair.
They were so different. Just standing in the crowd, the temperament of the superiors made them different from the people on the street, and they attracted everyone's attention.
"Hello, I'm Bayern Fisher."
The "old man" smiled, staring at the madman's cloudy and confused eyes with deep eyes, and continued:
"Let's get straight to the point, friend, I want to ask you about something... about a black dragon."
"That old lizard also did something too much to my father. For decades, we have been looking for his whereabouts... I hope to get your help."
The crazy middle-aged man remained unmoved and didn't react at all. Bayern narrowed his eyes and thought.
Until Byrne came to his ear and whispered.
"Trust us, tell us everything you know here, please understand one thing, that will be the only chance for your daughter to 'come back to life'."
Finally, a trace of clarity gradually emerged in the madman's eyes.
"You, what did you say?"
"Can she still come back to life?"
Byrne nodded slowly, and he stood up again from his squatting position, standing next to Chris like a mountain that was hard to see clearly.
"At least I can be sure that your daughter is not completely dead."
