0004 Chapter Eloquent

By the seaside, the father and son in rags looked blankly at the empty reef, looking confused.

Less than half a minute ago, the two of them clearly heard the sound of special speech coming from the top. Why did the person suddenly disappear?

"Dad, what's going on? There are no bulges nearby, and there is no place to hide. No matter how fast a person runs, it will not disappear so quickly, right?" asked the thin child, who is only eleven or twelve years old.

After hearing this, the middle-aged father said excitedly: "It must be that the sea god heard our call and gave us the gift!"

After hearing this, my son became excited and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept saluting.

A few minutes later, the two of them got up and the father said, "Remember the voice today, remember the language today, this is the incarnation of the sea god, and we will never forget it for the rest of our lives! No matter what happens in the future, we cannot forget the gifts today! Do you know!"

"I know my father, I will remember it for the rest of my life!"

The middle-aged man climbed down from the reef and took out the fishing net he brought over and said, "Go and catch the fish quickly! There are 100 or 200 of them, pick 100 small ones to hand over, and hide the big ones here. We will buy them secretly in two days!"

"I understand!" The young man started to act quickly.

"The rest are big guys, and they are all rare gerberas, one can sell at least two silver coins. With this money, we can not only cure your mother's illness, but also do some business!"

…………

While the fate of the poor father and son changed, Evan's fate also changed.

Facing the old mayor's gloomy face, Evan's mind was not here.

"My ritual was not problematic at that time, and it was already successful correctly. The only possibility is that there are other people nearby holding other prayer rituals."

"It's not right. I just looked for a remote beach. I was afraid that someone would hide, so I found an empty place around. What's going on?" Evan was confused.

"Can you say... there are some people hidden in the reef under my feet?" Evan thought suddenly.

"Yes, yes, it must be like this! It's not surprising that there are some reefs such as high, with some reefs or caves or gaps. Grandma, I'm so lucky, right?"

"Fortunately, there is still room for maneuver when teleported here. If I am teleported to the Fantasy Dreamland, I will die suddenly."

As Evan contemplated, the old mayor whispered: "Do you have anything to say?"

Evan instantly came back to his senses, and became wise in a hurry, sighing without changing his face: "Don't be angry, listen to me to explain it to you."

The old mayor had a gloomy face and did not speak.

"First of all, you have made mistakes in this matter first. You have violated our trading guidelines!" Evan said first.

The old mayor was about to open his mouth, but was interrupted by Evan: "Is this wrong? As agreed, you should give me the things after the letter is delivered!"

The old mayor was silent for a few seconds: "I was wrong about this, but you shouldn't play tricks or deceive me."

Evan asked calmly: "Who said I was playing tricks on you and cheating you?"

When the old mayor was about to open his mouth, he was interrupted by Evan again and said: "I am not sure about this matter myself. I didn't talk too much about the topic at that time, but I just didn't want you to have too much hope and cause more disappointment in the future."

"Then you can tell me why you want to leave?" The old mayor asked calmly at this time.

Evan calmly explained: "The less mysterious things are known to people, the better. If I promised you at that time, you would definitely tell others about this, but I was not sure at that time and didn't want to disappoint more people, so I left, made five days of preparation, and then came here again."

!!

Hearing this, the old mayor was stunned. He wanted to ask and was interrupted by Evan for the third time and said, "Otherwise, I have been away for five days and can go far away. Why did he come back suddenly? If I hadn't wanted to help you, why would I come back to face you!?"

When the old mayor heard this, he was shocked and thought for a few seconds, he then said loudly with regret: "I was wrongly blamed Mr. Evan! It was my narrow mind and shallow knowledge that I misunderstood Mr. Evan for so many days, I am so stupid!"

Evan reached out and said, "I can understand the mayor's great ideal and willingness to rescue this town, but I cannot hurry up from everything."

"I understand, I understand!" The old mayor nodded repeatedly, expressing his understanding, his words and expressions were full of respect.

Yiwen breathed a deep sigh of relief at this moment: "I finally fooled it, Guiguzi is awesome!"

Before traveling through time, as an experienced Chinese classic "Guiguzi", Ewen was very familiar with the way of talking and communicating with others.

Chuang means letting the other person open his mouth and telling the situation, and closing means to shut up and listen to you, use reasonable and well-founded words to make preconceived, subtle changes the other person's perception and attitude towards you.

Just now, Evan interrupted the old mayor's robbery three times, and said his own truth and position directly, making the other party feel that you are right. After he had problems, he was brought into Evan's thinking rhythm, and other emotions were no longer important.

When the conversation came here, the old mayor invited Evan into the office with great respect, asked him to sit down and hand in his own tea and water, and said with a depressed look: "Mr. Evan, my sleep has become worse and worse these days, and I feel that the flame is getting closer and closer."

Evan asked: "You still carry that statue?"

"Well, I have a feeling that if this statue leaves me, I'm afraid the town will fall into the sea of ​​fire in the next second." said the old mayor.

Looking at the old mayor's haggard and old look, Evan admired the responsible, responsible, brave and kind mayor from the bottom of his heart.

"Why don't you let these villagers leave here?" Evan asked.

The old town mayor smiled bitterly and said, "The houses, industries and property of thousands of villagers are all here, so where can they go just by saying a word?"

"And now that steam technology is becoming more and more popular, not many people believe in these mysterious things."

Evan heard this and found that the world has now reached the late stage of the First Industrial Revolution, and technology is very popular. The mysteries of gods and ghosts that have been passed down from ancient times have turned into tricks of frightening people, and only some remote and backward villages still believe in these things.

"Many people in this town still believe it." Evan corrected.

The old mayor smiled: "They just said verbally that if it involves their interests and property, let alone demons, they don't care."

"Haha, it's really realistic." Evan laughed.

The old town mayor sighed: "Now people are becoming more and more realistic. Many ancient customs, both good and bad, are disappearing, and at the same time, people's kindness and simplicity are also disappearing."

"The mayor has seen it thoroughly." Evan said, pulling the topic back: "Then, tell me what happened."

One of the side effects of the failure of the ceremony is that a person is randomly teleported to a place and cannot leave within seven days.

Now that I came back here, Evan could clearly feel that a special element here was rapidly becoming rich, which means that the disaster was about to come.
