"No, you haven't seen it."
“But you’ve been in contact with God.”
Before Zheng Yu could answer, Shaq's wife continued.
Those blue eyes did not show hostility towards Zheng Yu. Instead, they said to Zheng Yu apologetically: "Sorry, as a divine servant, I always see some strange things."
"Some say this is the future."
"Some people say this is a warning from God to mankind."
"but……"
The woman did not continue.
Instead, he changed the topic to other places, "I heard from Shaq about you. You, who originally had the least divine power in the clan, suddenly have a lot of divine power and can summon divine beasts to help you fight."
"How does it feel to be empowered?"
the woman asked.
Zheng Yu didn't know how to answer for a while.
Fortunately, the woman didn't care about Zheng Yu's answer at all. She seemed to be just talking to herself. After finishing speaking, she walked towards Zheng Yu's wife without waiting for Zheng Yu's reply.
"..."
God stick.
This is the feeling a woman gives Zheng Yu.
In Zheng Yu's world, this word may not sound good.
But in the world view of Path of Exile, the God Stick has another name - God's Attendant.
Seeing that Zheng Yu was a little dazed, Shaq smiled and explained: "You haven't had much contact with us before, so naturally you don't know. My wife wasn't that nagging before."
"Ever since I became a divine servant, I have always talked to myself."
"But don't think I am the leader of the clan. If she speaks, I have to listen to her."
"By the way, this is for you."
With that said, Shaq took out a water bag from his backpack and threw it to Zheng Yu.
"You should have finished drinking the water. It will take a long time. The patient cannot survive without water."
Zheng Yu didn't expect that Shaq would take the initiative to give him the water before he opened his mouth.
"I really envy you."
Shaq looked at Zheng Yu and said, "What a blessing it is to be gifted by God."
"..."
Zheng Yu found that he really couldn't chat with people in this world.
Both Shaq's wife and Shaq himself worship God to the point of obsession.
Zheng Yu asked: "If I don't get this power, how long can I stay in the clan?"
After realizing the power of his summoner, he has a very valid reason, and he may not have to worry about offending the clan leader, so he can speak more directly.
Shaq didn't speak, but his expression was slightly embarrassed.
The answer is obvious.
He thought Zheng Yu was questioning him and complaining about his previous neglect of their family.
But Zheng Yu was really just curious.
It was also to test the patience of Patriarch Shaq.
Apparently, once connected to God, they can suppress any emotion.
Shaq changed the subject and said: "You are not too old, at least you are younger than me. You have received the gift from God and will be able to help the clan in the future. Maybe the position of clan leader will be yours in the future."
Shaq began to draw a pie for Zheng Yu.
Zheng Yu pretended to eat, his eyes showing the emotion of hope.
Then Shaq's wife came back.
He said to Zheng Yu with a bad expression: "The situation is not optimistic. I feel that Aisha's life force is passing away."
Aisha...Zheng Yu also just knew his wife's name.
Shaq asked, "How much time is left?"
"Half a day."
"but……"
Shaq's wife hesitated and said, "If you can't perform advanced prayers for Aisha in a short time, even if she can hold on for half a day, she won't be able to be cured."
"Now there are two ways to save Elsa."
"First, I use advanced prayers, although my advanced prayers may not necessarily have the effect of releasing energy-level divine servants."
"The second option is that you take your Aisha and forcefully cross the wind and sand to find help from the energy-releasing divine servant ahead."
Shaq's wife spoke differently from ordinary people. She didn't seem to understand what scruples were, and she even told Zheng Yu that the second way was tantamount to death.
Zheng Yu found something wrong with Shaq's expression.
Zheng Yu asked directly: "In the first case, will you be in danger?"
It was Shaq who explained to Zheng Yu, and he replied directly: "Not sure."
"But my wife is just a divine servant of the first level. There will be risks in introducing divine power across levels."
"But... the risk should be much smaller than if you were to cross the wind and sand."
"Let's see, it is risky to allow the clan's divine servants to perform high-level prayers across ranks. This must be known to everyone in the clan and cannot be hidden."
"I decided to hold a clan meeting and inform them."
inform?
Zheng Yu didn't think it was a notification.
More like a negotiation.
Zheng Yu believes that from Shaq's perspective, the Divine Attendant is more important than Zheng Yu, who has just gained divine power.
It is unreasonable to let important divine servants take risks for the sake of a family that once had a low status in the clan.
But Shaq didn't want to reject Zheng Yu, because Zheng Yu's strength was very important to the future security of the clan.
So Shaq is confused.
Faced with this situation, Zheng Yu grabbed Shaq who was about to convene a meeting.
"No, I choose the second option."
Shaq was worried that Zheng Yu would have a cold feeling towards the clan, so he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will try my best to convince other people in the clan..."
Before Shaq could finish speaking, Zheng Yu interrupted and said, "Can you guarantee that no one will refuse?"
Shaq was stunned.
Zheng Yu continued: "I don't want to embarrass you, let alone your lover. Just imagine that once you discuss it, you will let me leave."
"Then I'm not leaving, but being expelled by you."
"I must save Aisha, but I will not let your lover take risks in order to save Aisha."
"This matter does not need to be discussed."
Zheng Yu looked at Shaq and said with a smile: "Don't let other tribesmen be this bad guy."
"Believe me, preserving your relationship with me is more important to you."
It doesn’t matter if Shaq understands it or not.
After Zheng Yu finished speaking, he turned to Shaq's wife and said, "Actually, you saw my desire to enter the sand, right?"
Zheng Yu knew very well that of the two choices given by Shaq's wife, only the second one could be chosen.
And most people will inform you of this choice tactfully.
But Shaq's wife, the divine attendant, seemed to be giving Zheng Yu a step up, urging Zheng Yu to enter the wind and sand as soon as possible.
Shaq's wife came close to Zheng Yu's ear and whispered: "Because the wind and sand will not stop, someone needs to stop it."
"This is God's will."
…
In the eyes of everyone, Zheng Yu carried Aisha on his back, held the boy's hand, packed his luggage, and took the water bag given by Shaq.
Shaq dissuaded: "Keep the child, you will be in danger with the child."
Zheng Yu shook his head and said nothing.
At this time, most of the tribe knew about Zheng Yu, and also knew that Zheng Yu refused Shaq's dissuasion to convene a meeting to discuss.
This kind of behavior for the sake of his wife without compromising the clan members was respected by everyone.
But before leaving, Zheng Yu saw the private chat messages popping up like crazy in the system information. He turned around with a complicated expression and asked, "Um...does anyone want to travel through the wind and sand with me?"
"..."
Everyone took a step back.
Respect is respect.
But it’s not good for us to follow you to death.
"I!"
"Me me me!"
There was an urgent voice, as if he was afraid that Zheng Yu would lose him. Lu Chenzhi dragged the somewhat confused child and stood beside Zheng Yu in three steps and two steps at a time.
That look... very much like a coward in a haunted house who is afraid of falling behind.
This contradictory feeling made others unclear whether Lu Chenzhi was afraid or brave.
Lu Chenzhi, who was standing next to Zheng Yu, chuckled in his heart when he saw the eyes of others looking at him.
What does it mean to die?
It's safest to follow the boss!

Asking for a gift! Give me some gifts~~~~ (The shameless author is rolling around)
