Chapter 293: Broken and ugly(1/2)
A hillside on the south side of Meishen City is where the cemetery is located. The environment here is beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the scenery is pleasant. Standing on the slope, you can overlook Meishen City.
The slope is clean and dry, with transparency from north to south. Rows of tombs are hidden in the low trees. The wind blows from north to south, and a fresh corpse can be dried in a few days.
In addition to being a cemetery, this place is also the habitat of the undead. Some skeletons and zombies working nearby will come back here to rest after finishing their work in the morning, avoid the sun, temper their souls, and take a bath.
The skeleton zombies in Meishen City are the cleanest corpses in all planes. They are so clean that they can be placed in the room.
At dawn, I walked to the entrance of the cemetery, carrying a clean suede towel and linen cloth, using leather boots to blow lanolin brushes, etc., waiting for the returning undead.
The name Liu was very strange, not like a normal person's name, because it was not a name in the first place, but a nickname that was randomly called by others, and was finally fixed after being called too many times. Even she herself did not know what it meant.
Anyway, if someone makes this sound, she will know that it is her.
But generally no one would be willing to look for her. Only when they bully her would they call out that word. However, as she gets older and looks more and more ugly, there are no longer even people who are willing to bully her.
As soon as they see her, children, big and small, will run away. Adults will be more reserved and quicken their pace at most, but children will scream and cry in fear, turn around and run away.
Sometimes when a child is frightened, she will be beaten with a big stick until she runs away holding her head.
Let's see what an ugly appearance this is. Her face is crooked, with her right cheek higher and her left cheek lower, causing her eyes to be out of line, as well as her forehead and mouth. There is no symmetry on her face. s things.
This also caused her teeth to protrude and her lips to leak.
In addition to an ugly face, she also has rough skin, enlarged pores, swollen joints, long hands and short legs. She looks like the legendary Stitch Monster from a distance, and ordinary people will be frightened when they see her.
The only thing that can be seen on her ugly face is probably her clear eyes.
In the distance, some figures moved slowly and stiffly in the morning light, and soon came to the entrance of the cemetery. Seeing these 'people', they smiled. These 'people' were the only ones who saw her smile but did not laugh. her people.
"Morning." A skeleton moved in front of Liu, and Liu greeted him warmly, regardless of whether the skeleton understood it or not, and then stepped on the skin under his feet.
There is a large leather bag sandwiched between two wooden boards. When stepped on, the air inside will be squeezed out.
Hold the hose and aim the front end at the bones of the skeleton. The air sprayed out at high speed will spray onto the bones, joints, gaps, holes, and carry the soil, grass seeds, moisture, dirt, etc. It will be sprayed cleanly by the high-pressure air.
Seeing a dirty skeleton become clean in his hands, his whole face stretched out with a smile, making it look even uglier.
But it doesn't matter, the skeleton zombies in front of her will not laugh at her, nor will they hit her, they will just walk silently to the cemetery.
Liu didn't care, this was her favorite job, and she continued to spray at the second skeleton, and then the third, until she was replaced by a zombie in front of her.
The cleaning work of zombies is much more troublesome than that of skeletons. Blow dry the stains and moisture on the body, use a brush to remove stubborn dirt, then dry it with a suede towel, then apply lanolin and rub it to let the oil penetrate into the skin. , then dry it, and follow the same routine as leather care.
Cleaning one zombie is more troublesome than ten skeletons, but Liu doesn't care. She still does the cleaning very carefully, and she will greet every zombie skeleton that comes to her with a warm greeting: "Good morning."
A zombie suddenly let out a roar: "Hoo--".
Liu looked up and said happily: "It's you, red pants, good morning, what did you do last night?"
This zombie's clothes revealed a red trousers section. It is probably because of this feature that it was called that.
"Ho--" the zombie responded.
Of course Liu Zai couldn't hear what the other person wanted to express in his roar, but she could read a lot of information from the other person's body. From the rice left on the zombie's body, she could tell: "Have you gone to thresh the grain? There's no mud or water under the bones, so they shouldn't be in the fields."
Zombies are afraid of water and will not go to the fields to plant things, but they can thresh grain and dry it, carry large bags, are stronger than skeletons, and are not easily broken.
After busying for a long time, I finally cleaned all the skeletons and zombies, slipped back into my little room, took out a piece of dry and hard bread, toasted it on the charcoal fire, softened it, and then took a bite carefully. , with a happy and satisfied expression on his face.
Before coming to Meishen City, she had never had enough food, let alone such pure grain bread. A few pieces of moldy black bread would be very good.
That kind of black bread, even if baked, is as hard as a rock, and there are gravels and gravel inside. If you are not careful, you will chip your teeth or cut your mouth.
Before coming to Meishen City, Liu didn't even know that bread could be made without stones, so she still eats bread with caution. That was a habit she had developed in the past.
There were some noises outside the cemetery. He quickly pulled up his hood and covered his face. Only his eyes were exposed. He quietly slipped out of the hut and hid in the grass to take a look.
In the distance, I saw a group of people walking up the slope. Lisa, the leader, shouted: "Slip out, come out."
If someone calls her, Liu will not come out, but Lisa is an exception. This is the only person Liu has met in her life who will not laugh at, beat, or insult her because of her appearance, and even tries to treat her. and beauty.
Originally, Sli's right hand was broken. She was kicked when she was a child. She blocked it and broke her wrist. She had no money for treatment. After healing, it became crooked.
After arriving at Meishen City, Lisa broke off her wrist again and then treated her, finally curing her crooked right hand.
Lisa also tried to give her a beauty treatment, but the all-powerful facial cleansing and freckle removal technique had lost its effect on Liu's body, and instead she tended to become uglier with each treatment.
There was also a pharmacist named Sawa present, who said this: "Your ugliness is congenital. The more you treat it, the worse it will become, so you can only stay as you are now."
He nodded and had no other thoughts.
Later, Lisa arranged for her to be here. No matter how ugly she was, the skeletons and zombies would not dislike her, so she lived happily there.
Now Lisa brought a large group of people to look for her. Although she was a little scared, she still walked out timidly.
"I've seen you a long time ago. Come here, take off your hood and let the adults see you." Lisa said with a smile, let alone hiding in the grass, even if it was buried in the soil, it would be useless. She found out.
Liu carefully squinted and saw those people around Lisa. The one at the front turned out to be a flying brass dragon.
She was very wary of people, but not dragons. She took a curious look and raised her hood with some flinch.
The face under the hood startled Nigris: "This... this is so... how could she look like this? Have you never beautified her?"
Although Nigris is a brass dragon, his aesthetics are normal. An asymmetrical face like this is definitely not beautiful. It is estimated that this face would be ugly among orcs.
It's okay if I don't say this. When I mention Lisa, I want to cry: "Why not? I just have to change her face."
Lisa said: "Although the standards of beauty are different, some people think short hair and wide lips are good-looking, and some people think a high nose and deep eyes are good-looking, but as long as they are healthy, no matter what they look like, everyone can have their own beauty." state."
"Zi Ku is so big, and her back muscles are wider than those of male Titans. But when she was training, a bunch of bodybuilding enthusiasts were watching and drooling. If the body size difference hadn't been too big, they were all ready to pursue Zi Ku. Already."
When he thought of Zi's body, which was more than three meters tall and so big that he could use lightning as a pony, being held in his arms and being rubbed, and being pursued by a bunch of men giving him flowers, Nigris shuddered and quickly shook his head. Drive away the images in your mind.
"In my opinion, healthy people are beautiful, but this understanding does not hold true for Liu. The healthier he is, the uglier he looks. The better the nutrition, the more obvious the ugliness becomes."
"For a while, I even gave her meat and beets, which made her face greasy and acne-prone, making her ugly and scary. But then I stopped giving them to her and ate bread instead. Her condition actually got better. ." Lisa said sadly.
Sawa raised her hand and said: "I went back and looked up the information and found that this condition is innate and worsens with age. The older it gets, the uglier it becomes. Many people do not live to be ten years old. I guess it should be in the body." There is one more thing that produces 'ugly elements'. The healthier you are, the more 'ugly elements' you produce, and the more serious the situation becomes."
"Is there any medicine that can cure it?" Nigris asked.
Sawa shook her head: "No."
Then Nigris turned to Ange and said: "Okay, we have found the person you want. The beauty can't cure it, and the medicine can't cure it either. It depends on your magical skills."
Ange nodded and grabbed Liu Tan's hand.
Liu felt her whole body stiffen and couldn't move for an instant. An ugly shadow was 'caught' out of her body by Ange.
Without the wrapping of clothes, her ugliness can be seen even more from the shadow. The proportions of her limbs are uncoordinated, her joints are swollen, and she is even bent in some places, which is very ugly.
Ange gestured at the shadow a few times and suddenly asked: "What is beauty?"
The people around him broke out in cold sweat instantly.
"You are the God of Beauty, why do you still ask what beauty is..." Nigris said helplessly.
Lisa quickly interjected: "If it's a girl, like me, like Sawa, like Katie, they are all beautiful, and we are more in line with female aesthetics, but purple bones are also beautiful, and their strength is beautiful, but skeletons and mummies are placed among girls. Your body is not beautiful. Although your golden frame is very majestic, my lord, it does not conform to female aesthetics."
"Oh." Ange nodded, expressing understanding.
The phantom hand squeezed hard a few times, and the phantom kept changing. Finally, it seemed that something was fixed. Ange raised his other fist and hit the phantom with one punch, breaking it into pieces.
Liu Huan was shocked and sat down on the ground.
One second, two seconds, three... After two minutes passed, everyone looked at each other: "That's it? Nothing has changed."
"Aren't you talking about magical skills?"
Everyone didn't know what was going on, so they whispered to each other, and Liu fell to the ground and got up again. No changes could be seen at all.
"What's going on? Isn't it a magical skill? Why hasn't it changed?" Nigris asked.
Ange dug out a pile of food and piled it in front of Liu, and stepped on it hard.
It's not that there are no changes, it's just that changes take time to change. If it were just a beauty, it might take several months to show this change. Fortunately, Ange also has a quick-death aura.
Under the halo, Liu soon felt that she was hungry, so she grabbed the food in front of her and gnawed it. She felt that her teeth had fallen out, and she spit out some crooked and broken teeth.
How could this happen? I subconsciously pushed my tongue against my gums and found that new teeth had grown in.
As he ate, Liu found that the joints of his fingers had shrunk a lot, and his skin had become much more delicate. He felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation, as if all the shackles on his body had been broken one by one.
Because there are no mirrors, the feeling of slipping away is not strong, but the feelings of the onlookers are completely different. They watch helplessly as an ugly monster like a half-orc transforms into a human being, bit by bit, at a speed visible to the naked eye. Stunning woman.
This woman is a bit like Lisa, plump and plump, a bit like Sava, tall and pure, and a bit like Katie, gentle but charming...
"Zobada, Ange, have you really combined the advantages of the three of them?" Nigris said incredulously.
To be continued...
