Chapter 588 Please Marry Me!
It is said that when Nan Ding was still a baby, he always faced the direction of the temple and stared at that place intently.
Everyone thought that this child had the potential to be a hero.
A good man should be upright and have lofty ambitions!
The adults didn't know that Xiao Nanding was always looking forward to the appearance of the beautiful apostle sister just because he saw Neferi in a long skirt on the steps of the temple.
When Nan Ding grew up, everyone was disappointed because he did not have any talent or charm that stood out from his peers.
He is just a very ordinary Zhouzhou man, with ordinary height and ordinary mind, the kind that is difficult to leave an impression on after seeing him.
Nanding has had an ideal since he was a child.
He wants to find a beautiful wife - like Lady Neferi!
Girls from Zhouzhou have colorful hair that is tied into strange shapes, like snakes, trees, or fish, to show that they are different from others.
Nanding prefers girls from other ethnic groups.
He couldn't say why.
Perhaps because of the novelty, all he had seen and known since childhood were people from Zhouzhou, while people of other races and the opposite sex exuded a mysterious exotic temperament.
The biggest advantage of Nanding is its boldness.
He always dares to actively pursue those very good-looking girls, although the results are always failures.
The first girl that Nan Ding was deeply fascinated by was called Laura. She had red pupils, dangerous and seductive fangs, and smooth skin like white pearls. She was a rare beauty.
Laura is a frontline reporter for the Sand City Gazette. She wears a short leather jacket and tight trousers that show off her straight and flexible long legs. She walks around tirelessly with her weapons box and reporter crystal on her back, and is full of interest in any new things.
"I love you! Miss Laura, please marry me!"
When Nan Ding proposed to her, Laura smiled with her white teeth and shook her finger: "No, you are too young."
The South Peak is a bit difficult to reach.
He is not young, he is already 18 years old, many people in Zhouzhou have children at the age of 18. But because he is obsessed with beautiful girls, he has never been able to get married.
Nan Ding asked again, when would he be considered not young anymore.
"One day, you will find that you have grown up."
Laura said to him: "When that day comes, if we can meet again, I will think about it carefully."
Nan Ding never saw Laura again after that.
So he changed his next target.
The second person that Nan Ding could not forget was a soft fighting cat lady named Mao Ning.
Miss Maoning was wearing a pair of round-framed transparent glasses.
She has poor eyesight, and when she doesn't wear glasses, her eyes are dull and blurry. But once she puts on glasses, her deep blue cat eyes will glow with a deep magic light, making it difficult for people to look away.
Unlike most war cats who like adventure, Mao Ning is a scholar. He was influenced by the wonder of Yancheng [Wonderful Zoo] and embarked on the path of a biologist.
Her research interests are spices and beverages.
Zhou Island is rich in materials, including the world-renowned tea garden, the carefully tended medicinal taro, and the currently unique spice [Qisi Seaweed].
“It’s amazing!”
When Maoning saw all this, his tail twitched with joy.
She usually stayed in the cattle area of Beizhou City and watched the manatees basking in the sun.
The cattle area is also where Nan Ding works.
He is a herder who specializes in taking care of sea cows and raising sea shells. By carefully feeding and caring for these big guys, they can spit out better sea grass.
The dugong eats and slaps its belly, then spits out pumice mixed with impurities. After being cleaned and soaked, the pumice becomes expensive dugong seaweed.
At this time, Mao Ning would hold a crystal camera and take photos. She would lean over to smell the pumice and seaweed, and even lick them with her tongue to faithfully record the smell and taste of every step.
"The smell is a mixture of herbal herbs and some fishy smell."
“It tastes… well, bitter at first, then a little bit sweet.”
Although she is a clean-loving war cat, Mao Ning is not afraid of getting dirty when she is working. Her soft white fur is often stained by dirt or stains, which makes her look a little pitiful.
Nan Ding simply couldn't resist such a Mao Ning.
"Ms. Mao Ning, please marry me!"
"blind!?"
Mao Ning was so frightened that her hair stood on end: "But I have no plans to get married."
"I'm willing to wait!"
"But I like tall and handsome guys. I'm sorry, you're not my type."
“…”
Nanding was depressed for a long time.
His height cannot be changed and his appearance is innate, which makes him very distressed.
Why, why can't I be a handsome and cool guy! Nan Ding cried out unwillingly in his heart.
Life goes on.
He put away his defeated mood.
The next one is better! This time Nan Ding fell in love with a blood fairy girl.
The blood goblins are not divided by gender. They can switch between male and female forms, and their appearance can change at will, but usually the men are handsome and the women are beautiful.
Nan Ding found it acceptable.
The blood fairy girl's name is Xue Zhen. She always sits quietly on a stone, looking down at Beizhou City from the hill, and then draws it over and over again with charcoal pencil, recording the different forms of the city.
Every street, house, coast, shellfish farming belt, cattle shed in the cattle area... were all left on the white paper with charcoal.
"I think this place is very beautiful and I want to draw it so that I can remember it many years later."
The sea breeze blew Xue Zhen's skirt, making her look like she had a goldfish-like tail.
She had her red hair neatly tied into a bun, wore a long skirt, carried a drawing board on her back, and there were always some faint black marks or wounds on her fingers.
"Mr. Nan Ding, Beizhou City is really a very suitable city to live in. It's very happy to live here."
Nan Ding was a little embarrassed: "It's okay."
"My hometown is Xueqiu Binghu City. It snows there all year round. Later, I went to the Yao Clan World and saw what spring and summer look like. I studied drawing and surveying at the Yao City Seminary, and became a painter after graduation."
“An artist is someone who paints for various books, newspapers or people.”
Xuezhen spoke softly and attentive to the listener's attitude, always looking at the other person's face or eyes when speaking. Just listening to her voice made Nanding feel very comfortable.
"I want to draw every aspect of Beizhou City, the people here, the sea cows here, the Zhouzhou people here, the mermaids, and everything that can be seen. Can you help me?"
"If you can help me, please let me know!"
Nan Ding patted his chest and made the promise.
"I want to go to the cattle area and sketch the manatees up close. Will this be troublesome?"
It's a small matter.
To express his gratitude, Xuezhen drew a portrait of Nanding. Although it was drawn entirely with charcoal, it looked very lifelike. Nanding bought a picture frame to fix the sketch on the wall.
Xue Zhen painted in Beizhou City for three years.
The income of a painter is meager. To supplement her family income, she would go to cattle and shell farming areas to help out, or help people identify whether blood is poisonous to earn some commissions.
Nan Ding often sent her some fish, shrimp and shellfish.
The longer they spent together, the more he liked this simple and hardworking painter girl.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Blood really has a fresh beauty that lasts forever.
But the more I like it, the more I can't say it.
Once you propose, there's no turning back.
The pressure of this failure was greater than any previous one, and for the first time, Nan Ding hesitated and backed off.
One day, Xuezhen invited Nanding to a picnic. She made wheat cakes, fried fish, baked clams, some potatoes, and brewed hot tea.
The two sat by a big rock, enjoying the sea breeze and eating under the gentle sunshine.
"I'm leaving now."
Xue Zhen said: "Otherwise, we may not be able to go back."
Nan Ding felt a little depressed.
He knew this day would come sooner or later.
The implementation of the Centennial Plan is becoming increasingly strict, and even the number of places for special passages has been reduced again and again, and the island will soon be completely closed.
“You are a very good person.”
Xue Zhen said seriously, "I have tasted your blood. We blood fairies can identify people by their blood. Blood is closer to reality than what people show, but people pay more attention to appearance. Appearance is not important to us because we can change anyway."
Nan Ding recalled that once he scratched his arm and Xue Zhen had bandaged it for him. She must have tasted it at that time.
“Good things happen to good people.”
The blood fairy smiled and said, "I believe that good things will happen to you."
Nan Ding forced a smile.
I am a good person.
Unfortunately, there is no good reward.
The girl I like will never like me.
…
A few days after Xue Zhen left, the mayor suddenly ordered martial law throughout the city because of a large-scale serial theft in Beizhou City, in which a large number of expensive items such as seaweed, emeralds, sea jade, cat's eye stones, gold chains, etc. were stolen.
The identity of the thief is unknown, but he is very familiar with the current situation in the city and did not leave any traces. It is suspected that he was a local who cooperated with a gang of experienced thieves to commit the crime.
The matter eventually came to nothing.
Because something big happened.
King of Light announced the oracle of God Yao, and the Kingdom of Dixin was officially incorporated into the world of Zhoudao, becoming a legitimate country. It will work with the Kingdom of the Sun to maintain the peace, stability and civilized development of Zhoudao.
The Dixin Kingdom has been certified by the gods, and all the autonomous regions and cities in the Sun Kingdom have taken active actions, all wanting to be the first to obtain cooperation with the Dixin Kingdom and gain more experience and help from the people of the heart.
Whoever comes first will be ahead of all cities.
In the face of this major event that concerns the city's status, the serial thefts seem insignificant.
But Nan Ding knew.
The serial thief is Xue Zhen.
The blood fairy can change into any form, and people cannot recognize her as long as she changes her appearance.
Normally, she would draw streets one by one without getting tired of it, and she knew the entire Beizhou City by heart. She also conducted very patient and detailed visits and investigations on the city.
It's all disguise and deception.
The most important thing is that Nan Ding found several valuable gems in his cabinet.
There is a picture under the gem.
On the paper were smiling Nan Ding and Xue Zhen, their faces pressed together, looking carefree, like a couple.
There is a line of words written below.
——Find a decent girl and don’t meet someone like me again.
Nan Ding looked at the painting and felt even more melancholy.
He didn't know what to do.
Report Xue Zhen? She disappeared a long time ago. It's easy to change her face. The name Xue Zhen might be fake, and her past seminary experience is also likely fake.
Being cheated by a bad woman made Nan Ding depressed for a long time.
He decided not to be a Zhouzhou citizen anymore! He wanted to join the Dixin Kingdom and embrace the ascension of consciousness!
After arriving at the Diplomatic Office, the people who received him said, "I'm sorry, your resume does not meet the requirements of our people... Please continue to work hard and come again next time."
The distraught Nan Ding stood on the street of Dixin Kingdom.
The world here is constantly changing, like smoke in a dream. Castles and gardens, love and wealth, none of them belong to you.
Looking at the people of Heart coming and going on the street, an idea popped into Nan Ding's mind.
He wants to connect people through the [Heart Kingdom].
If everyone could meet through the Kingdom of Heart and temporarily change their form like the People of Heart, everyone could be handsome and charming.
Then everyone would be a blood fairy, everyone would have a pleasing appearance, and there would be no victims!
A raging fire ignited in Nan Ding's heart.
He wants to change this world of inequality in appearance!
Only in this way can I achieve my dream!
