Zhang Heng was startled after hearing Song Jia's translation. "You … met my parents?"
"Yes, but strictly speaking, I met them in my dream. My elf found them on a deserted ice field, and she guided me into your mother's dream," Kuna said with a smile. "Of course, that was eighteen years ago. We played a video game together in her dream. I have to say, your mother is really an interesting person."
"Then how did you know that I am her son?" Zhang Heng asked.
"That's what my little elf told me." Kuna winked at Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng was obviously not satisfied with such an answer. "Your elf knows too much," he said euphemistically.
"It does know a lot of things, but I Googled some things myself," Kuna said. "Well, I'll stop joking. The reason I recognized you is that you have my blessing on you."
"Blessing?"
"Yes, this is the reward your mother got after winning the video game. I wish her first child that no matter what happens, he can always keep the last piece of purity in his heart."
Zhang Heng opened his mouth.
"I know what you want to say. What do you think I am? An omnipotent god? In the past hundred years, the power of shamans has been declining. I would like to wish you a long life and get rich overnight, but I can't do that, "Kuna spread her hands," I can only give you this kind of illusory blessing. By the way, how old are you this year? Sixteen or seventeen? Why do you look a little old? Is it because you always stay up late to play with your mobile phone? "
"I am twenty years old this year."
This time it was Kuna's turn to be surprised. "That's impossible. When I met your mother, she said that she didn't have children yet. How can you be twenty years old? Are you adopted? But my blessing only works on children who are related to them by blood. If you are adopted, you can't have my blessing on you. "
"My situation is a little special. My parents' blood does flow in my body, but I am not their child," Zhang Heng said.
"What do you mean?" Even with Kuna's experience and knowledge, she was a little confused. She didn't understand what Zhang Heng was talking about. To ensure that there was no problem with the translation, she deliberately confirmed it with Song Jia, who was equally confused. After that, Kuna barely found a way to understand it. "If you were adopted and received a blood transfusion, it doesn't count. My blessing is for the life created by your mother."
"In a sense, my life was given to me by my mother."
According to Nyarlathotep, he was born without a soul. For the master of the city under the ice, he was the perfect vessel. So those fanatics found a way to send him to the city. Just when the blood transfusion was about to succeed, his parents broke into the city and transfused their own blood into his body.
After a series of messy procedures, Nyarlathotep accidentally helped him complete his rebirth and create a soul. If that was the case, it wouldn't be wrong to say that Xia created him.
"Well, I'm just an old shaman from an isolated primitive tribe. I really don't know how advanced the science and technology of the outside world have become. Let's stop with the small talk and get back to business. Did you say that you guys lost the sacred relic?" Kuna looked at Alesia when she was about to finish her sentence.
She didn't use a scolding tone, but Alesia could not help but lower her head when she heard it. She seemed to blame herself. Ole, on the other hand, stood up, patted his chest, and said, "It's not Alesia's fault. I said I wanted to borrow the sacred relic. Alesia just listened to me."
Kuna didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm not blaming you. Why are you taking the blame? I just want to know what happened."
Zhang Heng pulled Song Jia up and said, "You are talking about your tribe's sacred relic. Shouldn't we leave?"
"There's no need to leave." Kuna shook her head. "That thing is barely an antique. But if it falls into the hands of outsiders, it won't sell for much."
"You mean, our people snatched that thing?" Alesia understood what Kuna was implying.
On the other side, Ole echoed, "Now, Hans is the biggest suspect because he is the one responsible for transporting the holy relic. And he left a code that only we can understand, luring us into the encirclement of the fanatics. When we came back this time, we ran into him again. He ambushed us on our way back and killed Luke. However, Zhang Heng said that his target was actually Satchus, who was behind the sleigh. He also found Hans' knife."
"I don't think Hans did these things," Alesia, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up. Ollie was a little stunned.
"Zhang Heng found Hans' knife, but he also warned us not to take it seriously. He thought that someone deliberately left it there to mislead us. I actually thought it was a little strange. If Hans really betrayed us, he could have just called us and asked us to meet at the art museum. Why did he leave a code and make it so troublesome? Until we were attacked just now, I began to think that the person who attacked us was not Hans."
"Why?"
"Hans's father and brother also died in the hands of those fanatics. His desire for revenge is no less than mine, so he has been quietly practicing his marksmanship all these years. If the person who ambushed us was really him, then Satchus should be dead by now because it's impossible for Hans to miss that shot."
Ollie thought about it and felt that what Alesia said made sense. But if that was the case, they would not know who betrayed them. They could not call everyone out and line them up to interrogate them one by one.
Kuna looked at Zhang Heng, who had been keeping quiet. "You seem to have an answer?"
"Not really. It's just a guess," Zhang Heng said.
"Can you tell us about it?"
"Of course, I suspect that the one who betrayed you is Ali, who has been with you all this time."
"How is that possible? Isn't Ali dead?" Ollie's eyes immediately widened when he heard what Zhang Heng said. "You said it yourself."
"Well, I checked the van. The person inside was stabbed at least twenty times. Judging from the blood flow, there is indeed no chance of survival. But I never said that the person in the van was Ali."
