Chapter 2994 Malicious Speculation
There are many drunkards in the devil world.
Most of the pubs were packed.
Some of these drinkers are native residents, some are residents who moved here to be able to drink all year round, and a considerable number are foreign tourists who come here specifically for drinking.
I also happen to fall into the category of out-of-town tourists.
Doing as the Romans do, I ordered a glass of specialty products in the tavern and imitated their behavior, lying on a chair as if I were not acquainted with each other, listening to their bragging while savoring the unique mellowness of the specialty wines.
It tastes slightly bitter in the mouth, but turns into a burnt aroma. It is bitter and fragrant, and the fragrance is bitter, so it leaves an endless aftertaste.
After one gulp, I couldn't help but let out a hearty moan.
At this moment, someone beside him breathed out the smell of alcohol and whispered, "Tell me, how does this town's specialty wine taste?"
Without opening my eyes, I knew it was a drinking buddy, so I took a deep breath and pretended to think. After a while, I slowly said: "The fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth, and the aftertaste is endless."
"Huh? Haha, well said!" The drinking friend sitting next to him laughed heartily: "It will leave a fragrant aroma on your lips and teeth, and endless aftertaste!"
As soon as I heard the compliment, I was so happy that I couldn't find the north. This must be a local.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw the owner of the tavern walking towards me carrying a wine bottle, and making jokes with him from a long distance away. He looked very familiar.
They can make jokes even though they are so far apart. The two of them must be more than familiar, maybe they are old friends.
I am even more certain that the drinking buddy sitting next to me is a local.
If you want to find out local news, it’s best to start with the locals. After all, the location is advantageous and the people are friendly.
So, I decided to start with the drinking buddy next to me.
Interpersonal relationships are very delicate things. If you can't find the right entry point, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to get it together.
But if you find the right entry point, with a little effort, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
Taking this drinking friend as an example, the conversation just now was actually the best entry point. Fortunately, it tasted good, and my evaluation was also fair, leaving an almost perfect first impression on the other party.
Taking advantage of the perfect first impression, I decided to strike while the iron was hot and bring the relationship closer.
So after the boss brought the wine bottle and put it in front of me, I took the lead in filling the half-empty glass of the drinking companion opposite me with wine. Then I filled my own empty glass, raised my glass to him, and said: " Cheers to the wine.”
The drinking friend was startled at first, then immediately became excited when he heard this. He held the glass and touched my glass hard. With a bit of drunkenness, he shouted loudly: "Cheers to the wine!"
As the drinking buddies shouted, many people picked up their glasses and sang songs.
This scene is the most magical scene I have ever seen among many scenes in the demon world.
During the time I have been in contact with the devil world, I have seen fighting, intrigues, betrayal, and backstabbing. I have even seen frame-ups and killings between blood relatives, but this is the first time I have seen them. Such a harmonious picture.
Everyone raised their glasses and sang in unison, in harmony and without any violation.
All of this is due to alcohol, and these people are all real alcoholics.
They like wine, love wine, and even live and die for wine.
They are close friends of wine, and wine is also their best friend.
As long as you praise the wine from the bottom of your heart, without being delicate or pretentious, they will treat you as a friend.
Because a friend of wine is their friend.
When I thought of this, I suddenly had a strong feeling.
I think Xilan must be here.
Because a person who has been betrayed by a friend, a person who has a blood feud, and a person who walks in the world with a promise, such a person can easily lose himself, and will feel sleepy, tired, and even numb during the journey.
And often at this time, this person who feels deeply sleepy and numb will want to find a transfer point that can soften his heart, or at least prevent him from going crazy and collapsing.
Alice could have been used as a transfer point to soothe her heart, but she was closely connected to the promise, which caused Xi Lan to think of unfulfilled promises when thinking of her.
Pain and entanglement will follow, eroding the soul, assimilating thoughts, and turning him into a walking zombie who only wants to fulfill his promise.
Xi Lan would never want to become this kind of person, because he is a very rational and straight man.
Yes, he is a straight man and does not accept any rebuttal.
Don't believe me, think about it, if you weren't a straight man, you wouldn't have come to the devil's world, would you have married Alice, had a bunch of kids, raised them, and trained them? Become a strong man, and then find a way to live longer, preferably tens of millions of years. I don’t believe that with the blood of Xilan and Alice, after tens of millions of years, I can’t find a few martial arts skills. genius!
As long as you find a genius in martial arts, train him, and brainwash him, it is best to make him feel that defeating the devil is the meaning of his existence, the direction of his existence, and his greatest pursuit and goal in life. Then he can find a way to open the portal and send the unlucky child to Go to the demon world.
In this way, there is a chance to complete the great cause of revenge without delaying Alice's infatuation.
Kill two birds with one stone, why not?
Well, at this point, I have to refute myself. Is Xilan really a straight man?
In fact, I think he should be called a pseudo-straight man of steel.
He is called the Straight Man because in order to fulfill his promise to Alice, he resolutely sneaked into the devil world alone, but he forgot that Alice was behind him, watching him infatuatedly, and silently waiting for his return.
The reason why I added a pseudo word in front is because this guy has descendants in Zephyr Continent. In other words, either he has married a wife and had children, or he has at least one romantic debt that he has not mentioned to anyone.
It's something that can lead to romantic debts, and it's something that few people know about. Generally speaking, it shouldn't be something a straight man can do.
After all, the definition of a straight man is: a straight man who doesn't understand style, but absolutely trusts and promises.
Therefore, I have doubts about Xi Lan's straightness.
But he couldn't escape the word straight man.
After all, there is Alice as a living witness.
Thinking of this, another strange thought suddenly popped up in my mind: Could it be that Xi Lan doesn't actually love Alice, but just lusts after her body? But seeing that Alice is deeply affectionate for him, this love prodigal also I can't bear to make this innocent doll lady sad, but I don't want to be bound to Alice for life just to be responsible. After all, Alice is a doll. Although most of the body structure is the same as that of ordinary people, at the core she is still human. The core of my love, so I can live for a long time, a long time, a long time. Once I am bound to Alice, I can basically declare that I will never leave him until forever.
Xi Lan doesn't want to be forever, he just likes to have fun in time.
Considering this result, he had no choice but to endure the pain and leave the beautiful and harmonious Zephyr Continent with many beautiful elder sisters, and embark on the journey to the devil world.
Of course, the above is just malicious speculation and has nothing to do with the facts.
