Hunter x Hunter: The Ubiquitous Dragon Life

Chapter 69: The Adventures of the Lady of the Journey to Another World (6)

Not long after the meal, Fu Xi and Han Daxianggong came, one came to deliver what Cellulu wanted, and the other came to collect the tableware and send needles and thread.

Fu Xi clapped his hands outside, and the two young men who looked like servants carried a huge sack in, and then backed out, Fu Xi turned his head and said to Cellulu.

"Mrs. Sai, here is what you need. The dry food has prepared 10 catties of millet and millet compacted flour products for you, 4 catties of cured meat, and 3 catties of pickled vegetables. The rest is converted into cash, which is a total of two coins. You Check it out."

Cellulu checked it a little and smiled:

"That's right, there really is a girl from Laofuxi."

The two servants came in again carrying a box of bamboo slips, and put the things next to the sack, Fu Xi continued.

"This is the book you want, there are 18 volumes of "Shan Hai Zhi", one copy of "The Distribution Map of Bimu", three volumes of blank silk and silk used for excerpts, one copy of pen and ink, Mrs. Sai, do you need anything else? It's best to bring it up now, and I'll be on duty later, I'm afraid I won't have so much leisure."

"Only one thing is unclear, and I still hope for advice. We came all the way and lost our way, and we don't know why. I wonder if Miss Fuxi can tell me."

Celluloid hurriedly asked the most important question.

"This is Xiangfu Village, which is under the jurisdiction of Guangrong House. If you want to check the situation around here, just read this volume. Is there anything else?"

Fuxi replied with a smile, lowered his head and looked for it, took out "Nanshan Chronicles" and handed it to Cellulu.

"No, thank you Miss Fuxi."

After confirming it, Cellulu smiled back.

On the other side, after finishing arranging the tableware, Grand Chancellor Han walked up to Chrollo, handed the scissors and needles to the other side, and said with a smile.

"Sai Da Xianggong, this is what your wife ordered. It must be because the clothes don't fit properly. The stature of several ministers are all gifted. Fortunately, there are enough manpower, and they will be able to change all these clothes in one night."

"•••thanks."

Chrollo silently took the thing in the other's hand and put it on the couch.

"Since there is nothing to do, let's accompany you less, father, let's go."

Seeing that Grand Chancellor Han was also done with his work, Fu Xi greeted him, bowed to a few people, and withdrew.

"It's really upside down, is it a man's business to sew?"

The knight scratches his hair,

"Men do a lot of things here. They manage housework inside and cultivate the fields outside."

Cellulu was sorting out the bamboo slips by volume and placing them on the couch one by one. Hearing the knight's question, she explained it casually.

Seeing Cellulu's actions, Jin, Ilumi, and the knight immediately went up to help, Cellulu smiled, sorted out the volumes, and handed them over to a few people.

Jin stroked the bamboo slips in his hands, feeling a little excited. In the past archaeological work, he could see only fragments of bamboo slips. This was the first time he had touched such well-preserved bamboo slips. Even if it was not from the same world, it made him very excited.

"It's really a book made of bamboo slips. Hasn't paper been invented yet?"

"Well, there is no paper, and printing has not even been invented, so the circulation of books is all by hand."

Cellulu looked at the thick roll of bamboo slips with a wry smile and replied with a headache.

"Hmm~ You said just now that men have so many things to do, women just don't do anything?"

Hisoka also picked up the volume, put it on the couch, and asked about Cellulo's previous answer with a little curiosity.

"Of course women have something to do. When going out, you have to rely on women. These two books are prepared for this."

Cellulu straightened up, put the last roll of silk on the couch, and returned.

Chrollo picked up one of the bamboo slips and asked.

"What do you mean? What's in it?"

"As I said before, demons are rampant in this world, and the extent of this rampage has actually reached a very serious level. In this world, except for humans, the rest you can see are all demons, but they are divided into cannibals. It's just that it doesn't eat people. "Shan Hai Zhi" is a classic that records all the types, appearances, attributes, and distribution of forces of all monsters. Because it is divided according to the geographical area of ​​the world, you can also regard it as a geographical chronicle. This is jointly issued by several countries and handled by an independent agency specializing in it. Once there is an increase or decrease, the agency will review and compile it and distribute it to various countries, and then decentralize it to the whole country.”

Spreading out the "Nanshan Chronicle", Cellulu continued to explain by pointing to the records above.

"The wolf-like monster that we saw on the mountain before is called Yupi. This is a relatively widely distributed monster, not only in Nanshan, but also in many places. It can only be regarded as a lower-middle monster, not very powerful. But I like to gather together, so it is very troublesome to meet.”

A few big men looked down, and there was only a short record on the bamboo slip, 録劍: It looks like a wolf, with red head and mouse eyes, its sound is like a pig, it is cannibal.

"So what is a little monster? That's why you insist on staying?"

Feitan said disdainfully, not understanding Celluloid's excessive caution.

"You don't understand, the monsters you see today are not even one-tenth of the usual number. If it wasn't for Fuguang's ban, how could there be only so few? It's already like this during the day, and the number of monsters at night is dozens of times that of the day. , Because many demons are nocturnal, no matter how strong you are, can you stop this endless war of attrition? You will see it for yourself later."

Celluloid raised her head with a serious face, and retorted unceremoniously,

"According to what you said, isn't this world where no one can go out at all? How can we survive and communicate in this way? Is it related to another book you want?"

Chrollo pondered for a while, asked a question, and glanced at the other silk that was tied up.

"Yes, in this world, the "Bimu Distribution Map" is a must. Bimu looks like a dead tree, but it is actually a kind of monster, but most of the monsters are afraid of it, so they won't approach it. If you find Bimu, you don't have to worry about being attacked by demons, but the power of the night will be weakened, and stronger demons will not be able to stop them, and Bimu will move by itself, so the position often changes. After a period of time, the original The "Public Tree Distribution Map" is useless, and there will be no general distribution map. Only each neighbor records it himself and adjusts it at any time. Therefore, without knowing the distribution map of the nearby trees, rushing out of the village is just a matter of Kill yourself."

Celluloid explained carefully.

"Wow~ This world is so dangerous?"

The knight is a little unbelievable, this is too exaggerated.

"There is no world given by Fuguang that is not dangerous."

Cellulo complained angrily, except for the ones that didn't match the time flow and those she hadn't been to, and the few that fit and had been there were not dangerous, all of them would not change with the passage of time. It is a world in which fundamental properties are problematic.

"Who is that Fuguang? What is the restriction? Is it the same thing as the one outside the ruins?"

Illumi recalled the layer of iris that traversed the sky and the earth, and asked.

Others also looked over, although they were still dubious about this being a different world, but if it was true, then the true identity of Mathiad who could throw them into this world would naturally make them extremely concerned.

"She? She's not from your world, and her form of strength is different from yours, but she's strong enough."

Cellulu was stunned for a moment, before answering lightly.

"Hmm~ Saying it means not saying it, Xiao Lulu~"

Hisoka looked at Cellulo with dissatisfaction.

"Why do you want to know so clearly? She's not in your world anyway, so what do you care about people you'll never see? She won't be of any help to the mission."

It's not that Cellulu didn't understand that a few men wanted to know more about Fuguang to help him in the mission, but it was all in vain.

"I find that Miss Celluloid always uses "your world" when she describes it. Does this mean that Miss Celluloid is not actually a person from our world? That's why you will know the situation here, because you have been here before. Isn't this world? If so, how did you come to our world? Besides Mathias, are there many people like you?"

Chrollo seized the loophole in Cellulo's speech, and asked, he wanted to know if this was the reason why Cellulo's power was different from theirs. What a powerful force this is, the world is far wider than he imagined, how can it not be fascinating.

Jin's eyes were shining brightly at Cellulu, and things were always getting more and more wonderful, which really surprised him.

"Although there are not many, but there are also many, each method is different, and coincidences do not happen often, otherwise the world will be in chaos, and there is nothing else to say."

Cellulu spoke reluctantly and did not answer directly, but several people naturally understood that she admitted indirectly.

The atmosphere fell into silence again, and Chrollo stared at Cellulu thoughtfully. Jin smiled and frowned. Hisoka hummed, staring at Celluloid with interest. Feitan just stared at Celluloid, wondering what he was thinking. The knight's face flickered. Illumi maintains his paralyzed appearance well. In short, everyone's focus is on celluloid.

"Well, the briefing is here for the time being. It's still too early for you to watch it. I'm going to change my clothes. You can do whatever you want."

Celluloid's scalp was numb under the stare, and she waved her hand covertly, trying to break the suffocating silence and compelling gaze.

They were silent for a while, and Feitan, Xia Ke, and Hisoka all went out for a walk. They also needed space to organize. The things they experienced all day today were too unbelievable and completely beyond their imagination. As for Cellulu's warning that she must be cautious in her words and actions, she said a few words of grace and left, but God knows how much she listened to.

Chrollo and Jin stayed to watch "Shan Hai Zhi", but they didn't know how much they could see. At least they kept glancing at Cellulu, with a thoughtful look on their faces. Lumi was upset and went out after reading "Shan Hai Zhi".

A large low couch replaces all functions, eats, sleeps, and studies on it. In a quiet room, Cellulu kneels on the couch and changes her clothes. Chrollo and Jin sit on her. Opposite, the surface is peaceful and the atmosphere is very quiet.

Rubbing her eyes, Cellulu turned on the wick, looking at the clothes that had only been completed two pieces and the pile of bamboo slips on the ground, she realized that she couldn't sleep today.

After wandering for a while, several people came back, but their faces were a little weird, with a strong unnaturalness.

"Leave this world early, really,"

The knight muttered and sat down on the couch awkwardly.

"Humph~"

Feitan grunted and sat down in an awkward posture.

"What's wrong?"

Chrollo looked at the unnatural movements of the two of them strangely, Hisoka seemed a little depressed, and Illumi just stood there.

"No•••it's okay"

The knight glanced at Cellulu, opened his mouth to speak for a long time, but held back.

Chrollo didn't ask any further, but not long after, when he came back from a trip to the toilet, he completely understood why the faces of the previous guys were so weird. After Jin also came back from the toilet, several people looked at each other. A glance, and a sigh at the same time.

When reading a book, I closed my eyes and rested my eyes, and when I was in a daze, the small room was quiet. Only the creaking of bamboo slips and the occasional sound of celluloid's scissors could be heard. , there was a deafening cry of babies, pigs screaming, mixed with the neighs of some other beasts.

Immediately, several people moved, and Cellulu also stopped her work and said:

"This is the monster attacking, go out and have a look, it should be more intuitive."

When I came outside, I saw a faint light emitting a layer of light over the entire village, covering the entire village, and outside the barrier, under the darkness of night, countless huge bird-shaped monsters with eyes shining in various colors even covered the sky. Stopped, making a harsh chirping together, and attacking the seemingly fragile barrier fiercely.

"Huh, is it made of that fence?"

The knight glanced at the source of the barrier, and suddenly called out. The fence that he thought had no protective effect during the day was now emitting a faint light, forming the thin barrier that extended to the sky and covered the entire village. No matter which direction the monsters came to invade, they were completely blocked from the outside.

Yes, not only the sky, but also a large number of monsters gathered outside the village, which blocked the water around the village. Several men looked at the scene in front of them in shock. The number was beyond imagination.

"The fence is made of wooden branches, so it can block the demons. Because humans rarely go out at night, all the demons who are looking for food gather around the village. Flying in the sky, the long statue has horns on its head. It's a Gu eagle, it screams like a baby crying, ah, speaking, there are several cannibal monsters in this world that scream like a baby crying, when you hear that, don't doubt, just prepare for battle."

Celluloid looked up at the sky, pointed to one of the most numerous monsters and explained, adding a sentence by the way.

"The one that looks like a peacock is called Dororo, and the one with a green body and a red mouth is called Chu. The other that breathes fire like a magpie is called Yu."

"That sound is also like a baby crying, what kind of monster is it?"

Illumi tilted his head and pointed at a red demon with a cow body but a human face and asked.

"It's a peeping hole, and the four-horned one next to it is called Tuqi. You have already seen it."

Celluloid glanced and returned.

From time to time, there are monsters in the field who break through the first layer of the barrier, but they are blocked by the second layer of barrier that appears, and the fish that slip through the second layer are sung by a few women with swords. attacking.

"That's the job of women. The barrier to avoid wood is not strong enough at night, so it's easy to invade. Some women use magic to support another barrier, and the rest of the women are responsible for cleaning up the fish that slip through the two layers of barrier."

Cellulu continued to explain, noticing the gazes of several men.

"Mrs. Sai, why did you come out? Let your relatives hurry in. Although there are few demons entering the village, it is inevitable that there will be some inconsistencies."

Noticing Cellulu and the others, False Creek walked over with a smile, her body was splashed with a lot of black and purple blood, and she was holding a dead Dororo in her hand.

“The False Creek Girl•••”

Cellulu had just saluted, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by a distant voice calling Fuxi.

"Fuxi~, Changyou came out, go kill it with me."

"Yo~~~~ here~. I'm sorry, Mrs. Sai, I went over first. It's better for you to bring your relatives into the room."

Fuxi answered with his throat raised, bowed to Cellulu, took care of him, and hurried away.

"What is Changyou?"

Chrollo asked curiously.

"Most of the demons eat people directly, and a few indirectly kill people in other ways, and then eat their corpses. It looks like a monkey, has four ears, and has a long voice that can cause flooding. , wash away everything, and then eat the drowned, this kind of demon is more troublesome for people in villages and towns than ordinary demons."

Celluloid returned, paused, and asked.

"Can you understand now why I don't want to leave this village right now?"

Several big men silently looked at the spectacular and tragic scene in front of them and said nothing, but they were obviously all approved.

"Continue reading, I went back to modify my clothes. I do this every day. I won't retreat until the morning."

Celluloid took a few glances, remembered the work to be done, and finished talking casually, leaving a few men who were surprised by the frequency of "every day" and entered the room.

When the men calmed down and returned to the room again, Cellulu had already sharpened the ink and picked up the pen to copy the book.

"Do you need help?"

Jin looked at the tall bamboo slips stacked beside him and asked.

"Can you use a brush?"

Gave a ghostly look of extreme resentment, and Celluloid's voice was quite resentful.

“••• Well, no~”

Frightened by the other party's eyes, Jin returned after a while embarrassed.

"I can."

Before Cellulu could say "then it's over", Chrollo spoke unexpectedly.

Cellulu froze for a while, and after half a second, she excitedly pushed half of the bamboo slips to the side, patted the couch beside her, and showed a rare happy smile at Chrollo.

"Then what are you waiting for, sit down and copy together, you also want to leave this village early."

With a chuckle, Chrollo sat down, picked up a pen, spread out the silk, and copied the handwriting neatly.

The others couldn't help, so after watching for a while, they closed their eyes and rested.

After staying up all night, in the early morning, the two finally copied and copied all the "Shan Hai Zhi" and "The Distribution Map of Bimu".

With a panda eye on her face, Cellulu got off the couch in a trance. One of them lost her footing and almost fell to the ground. Chrollo quickly supported her.

"thanks."

After thanking Chrollo dully, Cellulu swayed out to wash her face and refresh her spirits.

When they came back, several men also got up, and Cellulu was also told that they were going to take another day off before leaving. Both she and Chrollo needed to be refreshed to cope with the possible dangers on the road. She raised her hands and feet in agreement, and went out to greet Zongchang Han. After she once again instructed a few people not to cause trouble, she collapsed on the couch and fell into a deep sleep.

When Cellulu woke up again, she saw Chrollo sitting next to her, looking at the scrolls they had copied, her face was calm, and her fair complexion was as warm as jade reflected in the bean-like firelight.

"woke up?"

Chrollo said lightly, his eyes still focused on the scroll in his hand.

"Well, it's night again? Where are the others?"

Cellulu was in a trance for a while, then turned over and sat up, looked around, and asked if she didn't see anyone else.

"Well, you've slept for almost twelve hours. You just finished eating before. They went out for a walk. Your meal is here."

Pointing to the three dishes next to him, Chrollo said.

"Jin and I have taken turns to check. Regarding Ye Qing glass beads, it seems that only in "The Great Wilderness East Chronicle" has mentioned that it is the fruit of the rare polygonum growing on Mosang Mountain. It is recorded that this flower blooms every ten years. , the results are obtained once every ten years, there is a calculation method on it, I calculated it, and the next result will be two years and four months later."

Chrollo's eyes were dark, and he didn't know whether to be happy or bored, or to be happy, at least not have to wait for 20 years, right?

"In this case, let's go to the capital of King Li first. I remembered later that Ye Qinglizhu is also one of the treasures of the Queen of Li Kingdom. If this is what Fuguang wants us to find, then we don't have to wait so long. "

Cellulu grabbed the rice, heard the words, stopped, thought for a while, and returned.

"Do you have two Ye Qing glass beads? Well, let's go to Li Kingdom first, I hope it's the one you said."

Chrollo was surprised, and then readily agreed.

"However, before that, you must go to the county town. You must first get a certificate or something. I can't follow you all the time. With a certificate, even if I'm not around, there won't be too much trouble. These two days are just the right time for me to rush the certificate to work."

Cellulu remembered something and added.

"prove?"

Chrollo glanced at Cellulo oddly.

"Well, when the marriage is over, if a man in this world gets married, he will definitely have a bright scarf given by the woman as a certificate, which is like an embroidered handkerchief, but it has the imprint of the government and the imprint of the woman's magic, so it will not be lost. Yes, this means that the man already belongs, and other people have no right to interfere casually."

Cellulu explained carefully, and after she finished speaking, she added a sentence.

"Of course I don't care if you don't want to."

"•••No, go to the county seat first."

Chrollo was silent for a long time, looking at Cellulu's calm face, and finally agreed.

The next day, Cellulu said goodbye to Zongchang Han and the others, and took the carriage of a Mrs. Li who happened to be going to the county seat, and went on the road together.

Well, this chapter has thoroughly introduced the situation of the female respected world. I am grateful for the inspiration from "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "The Twelve Kingdoms". Most are the same, but the exact distribution and others are made up.

The reaction of Chrollo in the previous chapter has been slightly modified. As a relative said, Chrollo must be able to guess the intention of others to ask him to return the gift, but he is unwilling to return, not that he does not know.

Feitan (this is the cp picture, Feitan and Kurt, but Feitan is wearing a Chinese costume, although it's not the kind I set, but it's okay.)

In the past two days, I will prepare to go back to China. I really can’t find time to write an article for shopping. The next chapter has not been written since the evening of the 30th, and I have no time tomorrow (4th). No. to China, so the update will only have to wait until after the 6th, I'm really sorry!
