Hey!Long Jun, please wait a moment

That series of dangerous landslides not only buried Ao Xuan, Prince Yi's inexplicable something, as if they also buried bad luck.

The endless wind and rain dissipated, the sky was high and the air was crisp, the wind was dry and everything was dry, and the weather that should have been in the cold season was finally restored.

Since Ao Xuan's accident, the orcs of the Sicilian Sea Dragon Clan and Raptor Tribe have been silent a lot. Even if they picked enough dragon fruits in Hezhong Island to make their enemies jump and hate, they didn't have any joy on their faces.

Facing death directly is the best way to carve and polish a person.

On behalf of the two tribes, Ao Yi and Xiao You counted the number of dragon fruits seriously, and took the time to fly back to the holy lake, handed over the corresponding number of pearls to the Raptor Tribe, and then left the dragon fruit at their uncle's house and notified Rong Ge to come After responding, Ao Yi returned to Crocodile Valley.

As I promised, I will go back to Zhilian.

*****

The sun was hot and high, and a group of orcs buried their heads in their work, struggling to find out in the swamp mud, all of them were so serious that they didn't need to be urged at all.

Among them, Ao Yi is the most attentive.

He has been silent all day long, his body is covered in stinky mud, dusty and dirty, and it is normal for him to gnaw dried meat in the swamp—with full of vigor, hard work, and arrogance, he vows to bring the crocodile valley to life. Turn over the posture to conduct a carpet search.

Ao Yi didn't dare to think about it. He was so tired that he couldn't straighten his waist every day, and he was exhausted from self-torture. He went back to the tree house and fell asleep. At night, he often dreamed of those black pupils with purple streamers and the dragon's joyful eyes. sound:

First meeting: The naive Ao Rui exclaimed: "Brother, look quickly, there is a strange dragon."

Encountered in the dark river: "Ao Yi? Is that you?"

Encountered while hunting: "You finally came out!"

……

Crocodile Valley, he waved happily at the bottom: "Ao Yi, why are you here now, I've been waiting for you all night!"

"Can I come to your house as a guest?"

……

Repeatedly, every night.

Ao Yi always wakes up trembling, and when it is about to snow, he is often sweating all over his face.

Rong Ji Rongxiang was very worried, and it was attributed to the kindness of the prince, who sympathized with and regretted what happened to Ao Xuan, so he often persuaded him:

"Prince, you have tried your best, please take care of your health, Ao Xuan, he... well, in that situation, no one can do anything about it!"

In the end, Xiao You, who was worried, also came to accompany him, and the four orcs crowded into a tree house.

That night, they wrapped themselves in thick animal skin mattresses and slept side by side.Suddenly, Ao Yi trembled violently again, and then kicked the animal skin mattress away, dripping with cold sweat.

"What's wrong? Dreaming again?" Xiao You turned over and sat up immediately, picked up the animal skin mattress, and wrapped it around the other person. Rong Ji silently handed over a piece of silk, and Ao Yi took it, wiped his sweat carelessly, and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry for waking you up again. I told you earlier not to squeeze in with me. Let me stay by myself tomorrow night."

Rong Ji Rongxiang shook his head resolutely, and said nervously: "Prince, don't drive us away!"

Ao Yi didn't speak, but waved his hands wearily.

"It doesn't matter, it's cold, and it's warm when you sleep together." Xiao You took the silk gauze, forgetting about it for a moment, and gently wiped the cold sweat from the back of the temples and neck for the other party. Fortunately, no one paid attention to these things.

"Go to sleep."

There's always something sad about the atmosphere inside the treehouse.

Ao Yi lay down again, his mind was full of the mountain that collapsed rapidly on the day of the landslide, and his heart was suffering:

What is wrong with me?Why do you feel so uncomfortable?

This dragon prince has been favored since he was born, and he grew up smoothly. He was taught well by the dragon king and queen, and he is a qualified successor—but he is still too young after all.

There is such a beautiful and magical subtle feeling in life, but when his heartstrings were just touched a few times, the strings broke with a "snap"!

Is it... over?

Ao Yi took a deep breath, calming down the stinging pain and bewilderment that had long penetrated into his bones. He didn't know how to deal with that vague and secretive feeling.

For a long time, just when Rong Ji Rongxiang had fallen asleep and Xiao You thought that Ao Yi had also fallen asleep, Ao Yi suddenly said softly:

"Xiao You?"

"Ok?"

"How much longer will it snow?"

"Soon, it's just a few days."

"What should I do? Zhilian still hasn't been found. It will bloom when it snows, as he... said."

Xiao You thought for a while and said with relief: "Isn't it snowing yet? Let's get up early tomorrow and go to the southeast corner to look for it. We haven't looked there yet."

"Okay. Why did you stay and look for Zhilian?"

Xiao You's answer was very serious: "First, both Uncle Ji and Brother Kang are sick and urgently need to take medicine. I will help find it no matter whether it can be used or not; Okay, once you say it, you will definitely do it!"

"Well, what a good brother."

The night wind was blowing outside, and the leaves were whirling and rattling.

Xiao You looked at the prince with his back turned to him. The Yingman's night vision ability was excellent, and he could see the hair of the other party clearly. He shouted:

"Ao Yi?"

"Ok?"

"do not do that."

"..."

"We've stayed in Crocodile Valley for too long." Xiao You persuaded earnestly and slowly, "A few eagles flew from my tribe yesterday, and they were entrusted by Rong Ge. Rong Ge said, your family I am very worried about you, especially Uncle Ji, he told you to be careful in everything - if it wasn't because Kangdi was also in a hurry to use Zhilian, Uncle Ji would definitely call you home. Also, on the other side of the holy lake, Brother Tu brought guards , has almost arrived at Crocodile Valley."

"What?" Ao Yi frowned, turned over, faced Xiao You, and said disapprovingly, "Dr. Kang is not in good health, and the holy lake is in chaos. How can Brother Tu leave? We are enough here."

"Brother Tu has always wanted to come, but he just couldn't leave. A few days ago, the sea and land transaction was over, and your family sent away the foreign envoys. Uncle Ji was free, so he took Ruirui Rongge to the holy lake to visit Brother Kang, so that Brother Tu could get away. Come."

Dad took Ruirui Rongge to wait at the holy lake?

Ao Yi took a few deep breaths and had to pull himself together: "Sleep! Get up early tomorrow and go to the southeast corner to look for it. Even if you turn Crocodile Valley upside down, you must find that Zhilian!"

*****

On the second day, the sky was gloomy, the wind was cold, and the face was stinging—it was really going to snow.

"It's so unreasonable!" Ao Yi gritted his teeth, kicked a crocodile viciously away, and then rummaged in the stinky mud. His body and face were covered in mud, and he was in a terrible state of embarrassment.

"Zhilian, Zhilian, Zhilian..." Ao Yi murmured and repeated, suddenly, he felt something small and round in his hand, Ao Yi's heart skipped a beat, he held his breath, slowly Take it out:

It was a thumb-sized thing covered in black mud.

Ao Yi's fingers trembled slightly, and he wiped it off the front of his clothes indiscriminately, revealing the original emerald green color.

"Prince, have you found it?" Rong Ji Rongxiang surrounded him and yelled loudly, attracting a group of orcs to run.

Ao Yi held his breath and concentrated, and with a soft "beep", he peeled off the outer shell of the small green fruit, revealing the blue, delicate and transparent fruit. Suddenly, a refreshing fragrance filled the air. The fragrance was not strong, but calm and elegant. The coldness, with the breath, soaks into the internal organs, and there is no place where it is not clean.

"Hey, this smells so good!"

"Is that it?"

"This must be Zhilian, right?"

The orcs scrambled to get a closer look, amazed, and talked about it.

Ao Yi hastily stuffed the blue fruit to Rong Ji, and suddenly raised his hand to cover his eyes
