Vol 5 Chapter 159: Listening to the tide (2)

Just be willing to speak out.
After hearing Huang Huali speak, Lao Yao showed a satisfied smile on his face.
He tapped the teacup with his chopsticks, ding ding ding, and then continued: "I remember the principal said before that cause and effect are like a big net, which firmly binds every soul who wants freedom... the stronger the place, The binding power of this big net is also stronger. Phuket, or the first university, is the most powerful place in the wizarding world."
"Since you take the initiative to appear in the center of this net, you should be prepared to be bound by the net."
"For example, Zheng Qing..."
Huang Huali cast a warning look at Professor Yao.
Old Yao immediately raised his chopsticks, picked up another peanut, and changed an example: "For another example, the big mouse, it is also a thread that binds your hands and feet... Are you still looking for the big mouse? It's a mouse now, if you want to escape, you can't catch it."
"It's up to you!" The yellow lily's beard turned upwards and his temper became worse.
"Because that big network is not isolated. Every node on the network is connected to each other." Lao Yao spread his hands, the smile on his face faded, his expression a little serious:
"Every one of our actions affects the existence of other nodes on the network. For example, your perseverance in hunting the Rat Fairy may be the last straw to crush it, let it abandon the olive branch handed by the school and accept the Dark Council. Solicitation..."
"So what!" The yellow raccoon's beard rolled inward as if it was scorched by the fire. The old man hanging from the corner of his eye gave Lao Yao a vicious look, as if he would rush to bite him in the next moment A blood hole.
"It's just a kind reminder." Old Yao smiled slightly, lowered his head and picked up the last peanut with his chopsticks, and rolled in the bright red sauce:
"Every era has the theme of each era. The theme of each generation is chaotic before it is finalized. The only thing we can confirm is that no matter what era or theme, young people will always Is the final respondent."
"I am old and you are old, but they are still young."
"When the tide of the times was surging and they were not ready, we were the last breakwater. They stood on the and looked at us, just as we looked at the old people in front of us..."
Hearing this, the expression on the yellow raccoon's face finally eased a lot.
Its beard stretched again, and its tail drooped at will.
It's just that it still doesn't sound very pleasant:
"What you said sounds like an old wizard, not an old monster... just looking after the town? It shouldn't be a big problem. Well, the little girl in the north district can also help a lot... Busy, how long do you have to look after?"
Professor Yao laughed lowly.
"Soon, not too long." His figure gradually faded in the laughter, like a shadow under the setting sun, from thick to dissipated: "At most two weeks... It is very likely that everyone will be free this weekend."
The guests leave.
Sanyou Bookstore became empty again.
The yellow flower raccoon stared at the teapot and saucer left by Lao Yao, annoyed in his heart for no reason. It simply lowered its head, raised its ears, and re-tracked the surging rat tide underground.
The small and magnificent footsteps of the rats, like white noise when it rains, slowly dissipated the depression in its heart, and regained tranquility.
...
...
The rat tide surged in the underground cave.
Passing through the twisted roots of the tree, over the rocky ground with grotesque rocks, and finally after a damp and vapor-filled channel, it rushes into a wide and peaceful river.
As soon as they entered the water, the vests on the mice automatically bounced up a round transparent film, like soap bubbles, wrapping most of their bodies inside, leaving only a slender tail outside the film.
Their tails squashed when exposed to water and become caudal fins.
It's like a tadpole.
The mouse in the red vest is obviously familiar with this matter. The tail fin swings a little, and then quickly adjusts its posture and quietly continues forward along the water.
The rats in the cyan vest are slightly jerky, but they can also act independently.
Only those cubs wearing yellow vests, I don’t know if it’s the first time they are in the water. They are very nervous. Often a dozen "soap bubbles" cluster together, a dozen tails entangled with each other, rolling and turning in the water. Can't move three to five meters in a long time.
In the end, a few tall, red-vested mice came forward, carrying strings of soap bubbles.
Outside the water not far from the ‘tadpole group’, a witch was watching all this in silence.
The water in the silent river gurgled.
Kolma was sitting in a quiet cove by the river, underneath him was a dead and slanting poplar lying on the ground. The bark was covered with moss and mushrooms.
She turned her face sideways, listening to the sound of the tide surging in the river, her left hand stroked a silver ring on her right middle finger~EbookFREE.me~ The ring was embedded with a piece of amber, separated by a translucent brown, vaguely You can see a shadow of undulating mountains in the amber.
The ring is a gift from the Rat Fairy after she became a great wizard. There is a small world in Amber that can be used to contain her real body.
"The tide is rising."
She sighed softly, the long hair around her ears undulated slightly in the moist river breeze, and the broad robe floated backwards, covering those prying eyes in the forest.
A witch from the North District standing next to her poked her head and glanced into the river, scratching her head, very puzzled-Silent River is as smooth as ever, where is there a sign of a half high tide?
Kolma retracted his gaze to the bottom of the river.
"Go on." She told the witch beside her.
The witch was just reporting to her some bad signs recently discovered by the wizards of the North District—to be precise, the wizards of the North District.
"Okay, Great Sage." The witch bowed her head respectfully, and continued to report: "...Because it takes a strong body to bear your curse, so recently the North District's qi and blood boosting Jiaguo and vigorous Shimu Fruits are in great demand, and all the fruits outside the Silent Forest have been picked, so everyone can only go deeper in the forest to find them."
"In the process of looking for new picking sites, our people discovered that certain races in the Silent Forest had abnormally assembled. These include the scourges, poisonous horns, and corpses that just appeared a few months ago. Centaur, goblins... Some people even saw the shadows of dragons and giants."
"Theoretically, many of these figures will only appear before the Kuroshio. It may not even appear during the Kuroshio."
"In other words," Colmar interrupted the report of his subordinates and concluded: "Do you think that the Silent Forest is about to erupt a new round of Kuroshio?"
"Yes."
