Tianjin people will never lose SAN

Chapter 536: Finding Heart Disease (4k+)

"He has recently...his emotions have just stabilized, which may be related to the geographical environment he is in.

You know, frequent transfers of schools can have a significant impact on a child's mental health, so I was worried that he would follow me..."

Liu Yonglu paused when he said this, meaning, can my child come along?
"No problem. As long as you want, the island of peace for your loved ones far away can be brought to you."

The stranger responded briefly.

"That's good, that's good. I was worried that after he came to the Island of Tranquility with me, he would suffer another psychological blow and become even more unwilling to talk! What should I do?"

Liu Yonglu had eaten only one core of the whole fruit tree. His face was sore, but he still felt thirsty!

"That's easy. Don't worry. As you just saw, there are many children playing in the park. I can guarantee that these peers will make... Xiaohu feel the care of friendship.

They are good kids, of impeccable character, I can guarantee that."

At this point, the stranger puffed out his chest slightly, looking very proud:
"Mr. Bean, let's raise our glasses and toast to your and Xiaohu's bright future!"

The stranger still wanted Liu Yonglu to drink! Liu Yonglu waved his hand:

"Hey, hey, hey, don't worry, wait a little longer, wait a little longer."

"Wait a little longer? What do you mean? Aren't you going to pick up Xiaohu?"

"No, my wife hasn't given birth yet. I don't have a son."

The stranger stared at Liu Yonglu with eyes wide open, in disbelief, because he discovered that what Dou Niwar said opposite him was not false!

What I just said was true, and this is also true. Is he a human being?
Moreover, the stranger was unable to keep up with Liu Yonglu's train of thought for a while.

"So what did you say just now about being introverted...being bullied or something?"

"Hi, my father was an introvert when he was young. My grandmother told me that I was afraid I would inherit his genes! So I prepared for it in advance!"

You are preparing too early. The stranger was about to get angry when Liu Yonglu spoke again:

"But, I have something on my mind. It's true. I worry about it day and night. Sometimes I worry so much that I can't sleep in the middle of the night and roll around in bed!

Buddy, let me ask you, which is more important, your wife getting pregnant and giving birth, or your child being introverted and autistic?

"Giving birth is more important than anything else. After all, it's about nurturing new life."

The stranger nodded. It turned out that this was Dou Niwar’s weak spot!
"I'm worried about my wife. My wife... is so tall."

Liu Yonglu gestured with his hands beside the table, meaning that Millie Tang was short!

"It's dangerous for short women to give birth, and my wife is particularly short!
Hey, my mother is quite eloquent sometimes. If you want to date someone, you have to find someone who is tall. If the mother is tall and strong, the child will be strong and healthy..."

"Well, Mr. Bean, let's get down to business."

The stranger quickly reminded.

"Right, right, right. What were we talking about? She's short. Is that enough? My wife has some violent tendencies. She gets anxious easily. She holds grudges very well!"

Liu Yonglu said this while pretending to be nothing and took out a fruit:
"It's already difficult to give birth, and she's very passionate. Oh, this birth is even more worrying. I'm afraid that something will go wrong during the process, and she will be nervous and...

Brother, if something really happens, there will be two lives lost. If anything happens to the mother and daughter, will I still be alive?

I might as well die!"

Liu Yonglu stamped his feet and beat his chest, tears almost falling.

The stranger nodded and said, "Yes, that's the truth!"
"Mr. Dou, don't be too anxious. There are no less than a hundred babies born every year on the Island of Tranquility. There has never been any accident. Both mother and child are safe. You can rest assured.

But... when will you bring your wife here? I think the sooner the better..."

The stranger raised the glass again. Liu Yonglu covered his face and waved his hands:

"Not busy, not busy, having a baby is not busy."

"When is it not busy?"

The stranger's eyelids twitched. He had a bad feeling. Should he make an exception and kill him directly? There was no shortage of such people on the Island of Tranquility, right?

"Well, when I get married to my wife...pregnancy won't be far away."

Under the table, Liu Yonglu had actually already clenched the Black Stone tightly, as he was also afraid that the guy opposite him would get angry.

"You're not married yet!?"

"Yes, we are talking about marriage right now. I thought that it would be a problem for her to have children in the future, so I decided to make a deal in advance."

"You've booked it too early!"

This time, the stranger's tone finally lost its previous calm confidence, and his words were squeezed out through his teeth.

"Brother, don't be anxious. Let me ask you, which is more important, my wife giving birth or me getting married?"

"For two people to form a family contract, it is more important to get married."

"Yes, I am planning to get married on our island, give birth to the child on our island, and raise the child on our island. It's all one trip!"

Liu Yonglu slapped the table and said with a smile.

"Then tell me what difficulties you have in getting married."

"As for marriage, I don't even like to talk about it. I'll only talk to you if we're good friends. Every time I talk about it, I keep thinking about the lawsuit.

My wife and I are not from the same place, and the customs on both sides are very different!"

The stranger scratched the outside of the glass with his fingernails because he could see that Dou Nivar was telling the truth!
“Also, the elders from both sides have never met each other, even though we lived together after we got married.

But the elderly on both sides must visit each other during the holidays. Now I haven't seen her father, and he hasn't seen my father and mother. I feel uneasy!"

Liu Yonglu clapped his hands and brought over another fruit.

The person sitting in front of me also understood, so you came here just to eat the fruit! You are just making fun of me!

Liu Yonglu sat in the bar and talked nonsense all afternoon, but the stranger in front of him couldn't do anything about him because he was telling the truth.

“Alas, it’s getting late, there aren’t many people around, the chickens aren’t crowing, and the dogs aren’t barking.

Let's not talk about whatever we have talked about today. Let me think about whether my wife and I can live in our peaceful island for a long time. I need to figure out the medical care, education, retirement, and housing.

How about this, tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer! "

Liu Yonglu was no longer thirsty at this time, so he made an excuse and ran away. Unexpectedly, the stranger opposite him nodded without comment and did not stop him.

He just looked at Liu Yonglu's departing back and the fan in his hand, seeming thoughtful.

After Liu Yonglu left the bar, he quickly ran back to the wooden house where the old man and his family of six lived along the path into the city.

When he was observing the terrain before, he found that there was a small hut in the backyard of the old man's house. The door of the hut was not closed and it was full of hay.

Liu Yonglu took off his clothes and lay down using them as a blanket and had a good sleep. He slept until the stars were shining brightly in the sky. Then he stretched, rubbed his eyes and got up. Liu Yonglu groped into the cave again.

There was something strange about the city. Liu Yonglu still insisted on this idea. He held up a lighter to illuminate and smoothly returned to the position where he entered the cave!
"I wonder how Mi Li'er and the others are doing now?"

It was still a bit cold at night. Liu Yonglu tightened the collar of his coat and looked at the moon. The weather was really good today. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Liu Yonglu looked towards the valley in the distance in the moonlight.

The Island of Tranquility can't be just this one city, right? Are there other people living by the sea?
This time, Liu Yonglu planned to bypass the cave in front of him and go to the back mountain to see the situation.

Little did he know that the stranger who had been asking him questions since noon was now following him!

"Who are you? What do you want?" In the darkness, the stranger smiled sinisterly.

……

Perseus leaned against the soft stool beside the bed, reading the ancient book in his hand in the moonlight outside the window and the candlelight in the room. However, he put the book cap on the table after reading only two pages, picked up the pomegranate juice beside him and took a sip.

He has been feeling uneasy lately. The omens from his ancestors and the names of the gods are like two huge mountains pressing on his shoulders.

I was really born at the wrong time. It would have been better if I had been born a few decades earlier.

Perseus thought of his late grandfather, who always seemed so calm and composed, and it seemed that nothing in the world could make him frown.

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in."

Calliope walked in slowly from the door. She looked a little tired, but her eyes were full of joy. Perseus thought to himself that things seemed to be going smoothly with the Saint's sect.

"Lord Perseus, I am sorry to bother you so late at night. I am here to report today..."

"Speak the key."

"Everything went smoothly. Miss Millie Tang is an outstanding mystic scholar. She is a top-notch figure even on the Hidden Island.

Although the other Saints were a bit talkative, they also had a good foundation in mysticism. With their help, the task of calculating the name of the god went very smoothly.

Just after lunch, Saint Pie has completed the workload you assigned. I estimate that... this mission will be completed one third faster than you expected."

After completing the cleaning work of the temple, Calliope was assigned to Milliton to assist in the deduction. As an outstanding head maid, the appearance of Calliope also reflected Perseus's emphasis on the Saints.

Inside the room, the head maid lowered her head and did not dare to disturb Perseus' thoughts.

She knew in her heart that this working speed was not the limit of the Saint's Sect in terms of time. After lunch, when Milly Tang finished the work at hand, she also asked her to ride a horse to tour the entire island.

"Miss Calliope, is that your temple?"

"Yes, Miss Millie Tang, when you figure out the name of the god as agreed, I will take you into the temple, where there is a locked room containing the ancient book you need."

“I look forward to that day coming soon.”

Sitting on the chestnut horse, Millie Tang rested her hands on her forehead and looked into the distance.

It was afternoon, the breeze blew up the grass waves, Millie Tang, dressed in black, had a meaningful smile on her face, the sun shone on her face, the soft light gold outlined the flawless face with a charming glow that only appeared in oil paintings.

Calliope, who was standing beside them, could not help but stare in amazement.

Oh, Miss Millie Tang is so pitiful. I heard that her lover just disappeared in the battle. Under the space rain of the Lost Sea... it should be difficult for her to survive.

"Miss Calliope, besides calculating the names of the gods, do you have other tasks?"

Millitang suddenly tilted her head and smiled sweetly. Her sudden attack made Calliope a little overwhelmed. Although the maids were all proficient in mystical knowledge and had a high level of cultural accomplishment, lying was obviously not their forte.

"No...no...We are now focusing all our energy on the name of the deity. This is also the result of nearly a hundred years of hard work on the Hidden World Island. We must not make any mistakes."

Calliope didn't dare to make eye contact with Millie Tang-cat.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. Sorry, as compensation, I'll tell you a secret."

"Caliope, are there any signs of a conscious being?"

Perseus' question instantly brought Calliope back to reality. She twisted her hands together and said slowly:
"There has not been much progress yet, Lord Perseus. The Saint's Cult is small in number, so it should be easier to investigate than the Wisdom Cult.

These past two days... I found two... people who were suspicious."

"Oh? Keep talking."

Perseus was looking at the notebook in his hand from beginning to end. Every night, two groups of maids would come back to report to him, one was from the Church of Wisdom and the other was from the Holy Maiden Sect.

Perseus recorded the work speed of both sides in detail. At present, it seems that the Holy Maiden Sect still has the upper hand over the Wisdom Sect.

"One of them you have seen is the black group of gods' followers. I feel that he should be a follower because I don't feel any order and power related to gods in him.

Miss Millie Tang said his name was Shani and he was the apprentice of her missing lover.

Every god has their instincts at birth, and these instincts are also the source of their power in the future.

From the perspective of the Hidden Island, these instincts are equivalent to a kind of cosmic order and laws.

"not him."

Perseus concluded that the consciousness was not so stupid as to appear in the center of the battlefield.

"There is another one. He doesn't look like a human, but a half-chicken, half-lizard monster. He speaks a language similar to that of humans and has the ability to think."

After saying this, Calliope handed over a drawing with a sketch of a running chicken.

"Keep your attention on him."

Perseus tapped the drawing paper. He had indeed never seen this thing in ancient books.

"Okay, and Lord Perseus..."

"Ok?"

This was unusual, Calliope had something else to say, and Perseus raised his head slightly.

"Miss Millie Tang said she is a witch and her ancestors also came from the Hidden Island. A thousand years ago, a mysterious female society crossed the Lost Sea and went to the Western Continent. Do you still remember it?"

"Of course!"

Perseus stood up from the chair and paced back and forth in the room. The female mystery society... According to the records in ancient books, these people left the Hidden Island voluntarily, and nothing unpleasant happened in the process.

The other party suddenly said this...what does it mean?
"Where else did you go today!?"

"After finishing the work, I took Miss Millie Tang for a ride on horseback. She stopped in front of the temple for a long time."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Perseus snorted coldly. It seemed that the other party attached great importance to the ancient books in the temple because they were related to her ancestors. Was she trying to play the emotional card by deliberately talking about her own life experience?

Maybe, but a deal is a deal, and everything else has to stand aside when it comes to calculating the names of the gods.

"Call Lord Andreas over for me later. Also, don't bring Millie Tang near the temple in the next few days."

Perseus was worried that Millitan might have some evil intentions towards the ancient books in the temple, so he planned to ask Andreas to strengthen the guard near the temple.

"Yes, Lord Perseus."

"Are Saint Pai and Millie Tang still in a stable mood?"

"Well, apart from... apart from telling me the witch's secrets, Miss Millie Tang is quite honest and devoted herself to studying calculations."

"That's good."

Perseus waved to Calliope, who bowed and left the room.

At this moment, in the Holy Maiden Sect's base, Milly Tang quietly walked out of her room. She was still dressed in black and carrying a shoulder bag. As soon as she walked out of the door, four dark shadows flashed in front of her.
