Chapter 76: Contract That Happened in the Past
As a little loli, Xinglu ran forward forcefully.
She tried to prove that Zhisheng Luo had not deceived herself, and tried to prove that the treasure truly existed… So she came to the back mountain and found that dwelling that looked like ruins.
No one was guarding it, and the courtyard wall had already collapsed.
So Little Xinglu did not spend too much effort to climb over it.
And upon seeing this scene, Zhisheng Luo, who was hiding in the distance, was also stunned.
“Th-this is…”
“Mm, Zhisheng Luo, do you remember? This is your ancestor’s mansion, it was abandoned because it was very remote.”
“Ah, I remember! But, why Xinglu…”
Although Zhisheng Luo tried to recall something, her body trembled, as if in some pain.
This made Lonis worry and lean forward to comfort her, “Senior sister, are you okay?”
“I-I’m fine… I remember, I seem to have met Xinglu here. But, what’s going on, I…”
As the senior sister hesitated, what about inside the courtyard house?
Suddenly, there was a violent collision sound!
Boom!
It was the sound of the floor collapsing. Due to years of disrepair, many wooden boards in the room had been corroded by termites. Little Xinglu was not skilled at exploring, and with just one carelessness, she collapsed into it.
“Wuwu!”
…
“This is bad!”
“Go quickly and check.”
…
The girls rushed to the side of the courtyard, and only then did they notice that the situation was very serious.
Little Xinglu, completely off guard, fell directly into a recessed area, injured by the wooden boards and stone blocks. Not only was there a large tear in her clothes, but crimson blood also flowed from her body.
But even so, she was still holding a small box and struggling hard, trying to stand up.
…
“This is bad, we need to save her quickly.”
Lonis wanted to go forward and help. But her wrist was held by Elus.
“El-Elus?”
“No, Lonis… Siria was right, we cannot appear here. Because if we act now, history will be rewritten!”
“What…”
“The current Xinglu is safe and sound, which means someone has come to help. So… let’s just observe the situation.”
…
…
Elus’s conjecture was not wrong. As expected, not long after, the sound of hurried running came from the other end of the mountain road.
It was a girl with short hair, wearing ordinary cloth clothes.
Her appearance was very handsome, even a bit dashing. If one wasn’t careful, it would be easy to mistake her for a boy.
And she? She was running and shouting loudly:
“Xinglu, are you here? Stop looking, come back quickly!”
…
…
“This person…”
“It’s junior sister Zhisheng Luo from when she was little!”
Seeing this scene, the girls were stunned. Zhisheng Luo also clenched her fists and said in disbelief:
“It-it is indeed me… But, why don’t I remember that something like this happened. What is going on, is this really the past?”
“Senior sister?”
“Siria, I… what is this…”
“Zhisheng Luo, don’t worry. You will soon know the truth of the matter, because this is a promised matter?”
Siria smiled slightly. She just patted Zhisheng Luo’s shoulder, and then Siria walked out of the dense forest and came in front of little Zhisheng Luo.
“You… Who are you?”
Although Siria was a little loli and looked very cute, the sudden appearance of such a creature from the dense forest made people wary.
“You don’t need to worry about who I am, just think of me as a loli playing on the mountain. As for you, you came to find a cute girl, right? I just happened to see her.”
“Cute girl… You, did you see Xinglu?”
“Mm, it’s over there, I’ll go with you to find her.”
…
…
After speaking, Siria took little Zhisheng Luo’s hand and walked towards the abandoned old house.
It was difficult to move forward, and it was very rugged. If it weren’t for Siria guiding from the side, Zhisheng Luo might not have found the collapsed pit.
Little Zhisheng Luo poked her head out and discovered the richly dressed girl who had collapsed in the ruins! However, she seemed to have completely fainted from the pain.
…
…
“Xinglu, wh-why?! What did you do to her?!”
Little Zhisheng Luo questioned Siria as if she had seen a ghost!
Siria also shrugged her shoulders and said:
“Don’t misunderstand good people, of course I didn’t do anything? She fell and injured herself.”
“Could it be for treasure hunting… No, now is not the time to think about this, I need to save her quickly!”
After speaking, little Zhisheng Luo climbed down into the pit, trying to lift little Xinglu up.
However, although little Zhisheng Luo’s physical strength was better than that of ordinary people, she was, after all, just a child. How could she carry someone out in such a rugged environment?
So no matter how she tried, she was powerless.
…
“How could this be… This is bad, Xinglu is losing blood. It’s too late to go back and call now. If this continues…”
At this moment, she saw Siria standing by the side: “You, can you come and help? I need to rescue Xinglu, can you help me lift her?”
But facing little Zhisheng Luo’s plea for help, Siria shrugged her shoulders and said: “It can be done, but asking for help also requires a price?”
“Pay the price?”
“That’s right, this is an equivalent exchange. If you want me to help, you must give me something precious.”
“Something… But I don’t have anything… Wait, is this okay!”
…
Little Zhisheng Luo was startled because she suddenly saw the box in Xinglu’s hand.
If she remembered correctly, that was the clue passed down from her ancestors – the treasure map to find the Pirate King’s treasure.
It’s just that no one could decipher it, so it was thrown here and no one paid attention.
So…
…
“Here is this treasure map, this is the treasure map to find the Pirate King’s treasure. How about it, is this acceptable?”
Zhisheng Luo forcefully handed the box to Siria.
“Mm, it can be done. But is this okay? If you give me the treasure map, won’t it be even more impossible to prove the authenticity of the treasure?”
“Never mind that, as long as you help me quickly! Quickly!”
Little Zhisheng Luo had already shouted out, even her eyes were red.
Siria also smiled slightly and said:
“Okay, the contract is established… I will accept this treasure map, and along with it, I will also accept the memories of your exploration here.”
“Memories… Wh-what do you mean?”
“You and Xinglu will wake up in a nearby hospital. Although you will be covered in injuries, you will be safe. You will forget meeting me until the day of reunion.”
“The day of reunion…”
“Yes, so fall asleep, fall into a coma like this… And then, recall all of this, Miss Zhisheng Luo?”
…
Trickster Demon Siria drew a lacquer black mark and looked at the girls who were observing everything from the side.
