Magic Merchant Racial Anecdote

In early autumn, a sparrow folded its wings and stopped on the top of a tree covered with ruby-like fruits in the greenhouse. Its light yellow beak pecked off a small red fruit. It shook its silver-gray ear feathers, turned and landed on the broken On the stone paved path.

The sparrow bounced along the path all the way, but a black mountain appeared in front of it.The rocks on the mountain are jagged and shimmering faintly, and there is another sparrow sitting on it.

"Squeak." What are you doing?

"Twitter." Is it fun up there?

It tilted its head curiously, and flew up the mountain.Before it could put down the fruit in its mouth and have a good chat with its new friends, the mountain suddenly moved, and the little lark was startled, flapping its gray-green cover feathers and flying away .

Ned woke up with annoying 'twittering' sounds. Since the fruit trees in the greenhouse in autumn began to bear fruit, no matter how he tried to stop them, all kinds of small animals would try their best to sneak into his living place. , completely disturbing Long Qingmeng.

Another sparrow landed on him, and he couldn't bear it. He spread his wings and flapped them lightly twice. The wind pressure from the blowing disturbed the small animals nearby who were feasting.

For a while, the brown essence holding the tomato and gnawing on it, the translucent slime stuffed with peppers so that it turned red, the sparrow holding the fruit...all scattered and fled in all directions, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"—Hmph!" Ned exhaled from his nasal cavity, no longer cared about those little things hiding, and shook his wings to transform into a human form.

It's almost time, it's time to get up and ask Alai to have breakfast.

Thinking of the baked bread that Alai was going to try today, and those cute little doughs fermented in the refrigerator at low temperature last night, Ned's waking up was like dewdrops in the morning. All light up.

On the other side, A Lai also just woke up. Autumn is approaching, and the temperature is gradually getting lower. The heat-preserving magic circle in the room is operating silently, making his face flush with health.

He rubbed one side of his cheek against the soft pillow reluctantly before leaving the warm quilt and sat up.The wide T-shirt worn as pajamas had a loose neckline, revealing a delicate collarbone. After a deep sleep, there was a thin layer of pink on the plump lips, like roses blooming in May.

A Lai lifted the quilt in a daze, and was about to get out of bed, but his left hand, which was supporting the edge of the bed, was struck by something. With a sound of 'boom', the thing fell off the bed and hit the floor heavily.

"Huh?" Alai who heard the voice blinked his sleepy eyes and looked intently.

In the room, on the plush carpet covered with a cleaning circle, lay a black...egg?It was about the size of two apples, covered with golden inscriptions, and looked like an extremely expensive ornament.

what is this?

A Lai, who was still in a daze just now, opened his eyes wide after seeing the things on the ground clearly. He was sure that he had never seen the things in front of him before!What is this thing?Where did it come from?Why are you on his bed?

He took a deep breath to comfort himself, "it's okay, Ah Lai, it's just a black egg, so it doesn't necessarily mean it will be in danger." ’, Fu looked at the ground again, and the egg was still firmly in place, with a non-threatening appearance.

Alai simply got out of bed, squatted on the ground and studied the inscription on it carefully. Under the cover of the golden inscription, he could vaguely see several inconspicuous magic circles superimposed on the eggshell.

After seeing the magic circle above clearly, Alai's eyes, which were already wide open, couldn't help opening even wider. He didn't rush forward to move it, but walked around the egg in his pajamas, and hurried downstairs.

On the other side, just as Ned walked into the dining room, he was grabbed by Alai and dragged to the upstairs room.

***

"So... what is this? You bought an egg?" Ned squatted in Alai's room, glanced at the colored 'egg', and raised his head to ask Alai who was standing at the door, scratching the door frame.

"That's not it!" Alai said angrily.

"Look carefully, doesn't the magic circle on it look familiar?" He pointed to the magic circle hidden under the golden inscription on the egg, and cried out in a low voice.But the voice was kept very low, as if afraid of disturbing something.

"Huh?" Ned was asked this question, hesitantly turned back to study the 'egg' in front of him carefully, and in the end he could only look back at Alai innocently, with eyes full of words: I don't know what you are talking about .

Alai raised his forehead, shook his head, and sighed three times: "Don't you think the magic circle above is very similar to the one that appeared when we signed the contract?"

After such a reminder, Ned finally came to his senses. Thanks to the nearly bug-like memory of the Dragon Clan, he could remember every little detail of the contract magic circle much more clearly than Alai.

Ned lay on the floor and carefully compared the magic circle in front of him with the pictures in his memory. Whether it was the totem symbols representing the elements or the basic trajectory of the magic power, they were all very similar to the magic circle when the contract was signed.

His heart was beating wildly, and an extremely bold guess appeared in his mind, this egg... Could it be... Could it be...

"Alai, did you lay an egg for me?" He looked at Alai earnestly and asked foolishly.

"Boom!" It was Alai who answered him, throwing an elbow with all his strength at his head.

It's a pity that such a blow would basically do zero damage to Ned, who is a dragon. If it was a game, there is a high probability that he could see a series of Miss floating above his head~

"What the hell are you thinking about every day!" Seeing that the attack had no effect, Alaitong blushed and tugged at Ned's collar, shaking it vigorously.

"But, but..." Ned was shaken and couldn't speak a complete sentence.

"No, but!" Alai put his whole body on Ned's shoulders, strangled his neck with his hands and threatened, his voice couldn't tell if he was more panicked or more ashamed.

Ned pursed his mouth in grievance, and stopped talking.

The two remained in this position for a while in silence. Ned's breathing beat Alai's ear regularly, and his short-cut hair brushed his cheeks. Only then did Alai realize that he was almost half-embraced. Ned's upper body.

The lost sanity finally came back, he suddenly released the arm stuck around Ned's neck, took two steps back with embarrassment, and retreated to the door.

"Cough... well, what did you want to say just now?" Alai cleared his throat and asked again as if nothing happened.

"I just want to ask, if it wasn't for you...cough, then how did this egg come about?" Ned looked at Alai who had been moving silently, and had retreated to the door at this moment, and forcibly swallowed the one next to his mouth. "Student" word, asked as tactfully as possible.

"...it suddenly appeared on my bed this morning." Alai pursed his lips, stared at the egg with a complicated expression, and said as calmly as possible.

"——!" Ned glanced back and forth between Alai and the egg, and the conjecture that had been suppressed just now resurfaced in his mind, like a runaway wild horse, Ladu couldn't be pulled back.

"No matter what you are thinking, stop now, immediately, immediately!" Alai could see Ned's thoughts at a glance, and lowered his voice to warn.

"But Alai...it has a magic circle similar to our contract with me, right? And it also appeared on your bed. Why don't you tell me that I don't want to be wrong?" Ned turned his head and muttered in a low voice.

"But I'm a human being, male, male, or male. In short, I don't have the ability to lay eggs." Sure enough, he couldn't let him go easily, Alai couldn't help taking a few steps closer to Ned thinking about it.

At this moment, the egg that had been quietly placed on the ground moved. Ned and Alai stopped at the same time, and looked in the direction of the egg in tacit understanding.

A crisp cracking sound resounded in the room, "Kach, click, click——" The golden inscription formed a cloud of smoke and dissipated in the air, and the eggshell was pushed open.

A black baby dragon poked out more than half of its head from its shell, closed its eyes and yelled a few times in Ned's direction.

It was a dragon cub the size of a palm. The tip of its nose was still tender pink. The thin dragon scales had not yet fully grown, and it was a little light gray. The wings were also small, only less than one-third the size of its body. The tip of the tail is slightly raised, looking like a small heart.

Alai glanced back and forth between Ned and the little dragon baby, and finally came to a conclusion: "Ned, is this your illegitimate child? Tell me! Did you secretly put this egg on me while I was not paying attention?" On the bed?"

Ned was startled, and shook his head again and again to defend himself: "No, no, no... I can't lay eggs either, no, I mean, this is definitely not my egg, nor is it an egg laid by another dragon..."

A Lai raised an eyebrow, ignoring Ned's confusing logical justification, letting him say something just now, it will be retribution in turn.

The baby dragon doesn't know what the people in front of him are making noises about. He/she just hatched doesn't have the basic ability to survive and needs to be taken care of carefully. At this time, he/she doesn't know that he/she is no longer with his parents No, I just kept urging Ned.

"Ji-gu-chi-gu... oh." 'Mom, mother...hungry, hungry, and want to eat. '.

"Just now, was she/he talking?" The voice that suddenly appeared in his head was cute, with a little sweetness unique to cubs, and Alai asked Ned in a daze.

"Uh...probably so. Dragon cubs don't speak when they are just out of their shells. They all rely on induction. Generally, the higher the potential magic power of a cub, the clearer the meaning it expresses." Ned looked at the little dragon with an awkward expression. the baby replied.

"Oh~ so he was looking for you to eat just now? Mom, mom?" A Lai teased while suppressing a smile.

"Well, that's not necessarily the case. Maybe it just happened to be shouting in this direction." Ned said, and moved a few steps to the right sideways in a squatting position.

As he moved, the baby dragon followed suit, turned its little head precisely in Ned's direction, and began to 'beep' again, this time in a much more urgent tone.

'Hungry, hungry!mom, Mom, Mom. '

"Pfft...hahaha!" Ah Lai looked at Ned who was frozen in place, and laughed embarrassingly.

Seeing Alai couldn't stop laughing, Ned felt less embarrassed. He pinched Xiaolong's bulging waist with one hand and lifted him/her up, touching the base of the wings.

Xiaolong's urging stopped, and he let out a comfortable 'gurgling' sound, which sounded exactly the same as when Ned's chin was slapped, only a little more immature.

The scene in front of him really didn't match Ned. Alai raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of his eyes, and asked curiously: "Are you trying to comfort him/her? So this is indeed a young black dragon." cub."

"Well, although I don't know where it came from, this is indeed a dragon cub that has separated from its parents." Ned nodded and his tone became serious.

Alai also realized what Ned had said. The birth of dragons is very difficult and they are often hunted and killed by various races, so the cubs are very rare. Therefore, most dragon parents will stay together until the cubs leave the juvenile stage. Be there for them.

Since this little dragon appeared here, his/her parents either had an accident or were looking for her/him crazily.In either case, they should act immediately.

The author has something to say:

In the next chapter, help the little dragon cub find its mother~

I think the sugar in this chapter is back!

By the way, let’s commemorate the collection of over [-] on Children’s Day, hahaha~ I will send a few small red envelopes to accompany the cuties for the festival~
