Hello!this is my dragon

"Xitu, you have to take good care of your parents, do you know? Although the evil dragon has not made things difficult for you, but that dragon has always been moody, and no one knows when he will be in a bad mood." Rui said seriously Teach tiger cubs.

They met on a towering tree not far from the holy lake, which saved a lot of trouble, because there were not many beasts that could climb trees.

Xitu and Yafu sat opposite each other on two thick branches. He was very grateful to Rui, and as long as the situation allowed, he would come to the holy lake to visit himself and his mother and father.

"Yafu, don't worry, Ao Yang has been in a good mood recently, and has not hurt us for the time being."

Rui thought about it for a long time before coming, and finally decided to quietly reveal the important news to the little tiger cub.

"Xitu, since you already know from the evil dragon that both tribes in the east and west have slaughtered dragons, then I tell you now that it is not a violation of the tribe's regulations. Listen, the eagle tribe may attack and besiege the evil dragon in the near future. , when the time comes, you don’t have to worry about it, let them fight, you can take your mother and father to avoid it, if the dragon is successfully slaughtered, you can return to the tribal life.”

Blessed by the God of Beasts, it is best to let those cunning eagles defeat the dragons. Dragons in the ocean are not welcome in Sicily.

Uh~

Looking at Yafu's concerned and worried eyes, Xitu felt that there was nothing to hide, and it was no secret.

"Yafu, actually the Eagle Clan has already been here. A small group of them flew over the holy lake. I don't know if it was because they were afraid of Ao Yang, so they didn't dare to come down and flew away soon."

Fortunately, this time it is only the raptor tribe in the Western Continent who wants to slay the dragon, and there is no conflict with my position. If one day our tribe wants to slay the dragon, what should my mother and father do?Thinking of what might happen in the future, Xitu felt extremely embarrassed.

——Are you going to watch Ao Yang be besieged and killed?my beast god...

Rui frowned and thought about it, and said clearly: "It should not be because of fear, but because of lack of preparation. Their patriarch brought the orcs to our tribe to discuss joint dragon slaying. Our patriarch and warriors felt that it was inappropriate. ,Refused."

The little tiger cub has always been unable to let go of the fact that the beast father betrayed the family and found a new partner to have a cub. Of course Rui knew it well, so every time he mentioned Higg, he used a calm and objective tone.

"Well~ I refused, that's good, my mother and father and I are still here... His new cub is about to be born, right?" Xitu's tail, which had been swaying leisurely on the branch, stopped stiffly. swing.

Rui rubbed the other party's hair, sighed and said: "It should be, I saw that Kari's belly is already big. Xitu, no matter how many cubs he will have in the future, Xigg will not No matter yours, you're his first cub."

Forget it, there are some things that the little orc can't understand and accept. If you can coax him, you might as well let him have a better life, who made Higg and Cary even have cubs.

"Heh~" Xitu smiled sharply and mockingly, "He didn't want me a long time ago, and he didn't treat me as his cub. My mother and father were so sick before, so I asked him to take out the pearl for help, that Kali He only said one sentence: Even if you are the patriarch now, you can't waste pearls at will, even if that female is your ex-partner! Then, he didn't want to, and told me to go to the priest for help..."

It was a scar that would never heal.

Rui didn't know what to say, so after moving his mouth a few times, he abruptly changed the subject: "Let the past go, you are the future warrior of the Tiger Clan, you can't always hate the past. Xitu, this bag contains the things that you, Xingda and Weize, Ondato, I brought to you, take them back."

As good friends, Xingda and Wei Ze were very concerned about Qingzhe and Xitu who were forced to stay in the holy lake to face the evil dragon, so they tried their best to prepare some jam, salt, spices, flint and other things. In the past, this kind of intention was very rare.

After a pause, Rui said unnaturally: "There is also this bag, which contains the food and animal skins distributed to your family by the tribe during this period. It must be put away." This bag was given to him by Sig , the name is the supplies given to Qingzhe and his cubs by the tribe, but after weighing it, Rui found that the weight was obviously too much. Facing his puzzled eyes, Higg said calmly: "Don't get me wrong, the extra meat The dry and animal skins were added by myself, and have nothing to do with the tribe. Please don’t tell Qingzhe specifically, lest he worry too much, no matter what, Xitu is my cub after all, I can’t let him starve freeze."

Rui nodded silently, picked up the bag, turned around and left: Everyone in the tribe knows that you and Kari have been arguing all the time recently, and there are both male and females who say anything. Alas, it's a pity, it's all your own choice...

Xitu happily took the two animal skin bags, and thanked him gratefully: "Thank you Yafu, thank you Xingda and Weize Onda, my mother and father will be very happy, he often tells me about the Ondas of the tribe. " Then he took out two hard, sharp and polished bone knives from the animal skin bag behind him: "Yafu, these are the bone knives I made with my mother and father, and they are for the two Ondas. Also, There is also the preserved fruit in it, which is made from the ripe fragrant honey fruit that my parents picked from the lakeshore and mixed with the spices of green rice strips. It tastes very special, let Ang Da, Pei and Tao Tao try it." cute little female.

After thanking Rui, he took them one by one and put them into the animal skin bag behind his back. He knew the meaning of these things. Qingzhe must have done it with a lot of thoughts. He must hope to maintain a good relationship with the tribe. This If it cannot be broken, if it is broken, the female who lives alone with her cubs will feel panic and lost.

"Well, you and your parents are doing well, so we can rest assured in the tribe. Xitu, always be careful, don't provoke the dragon, you know? Although he allows you to exchange things with me, you You can’t always bring it up after you go back, lest he be overwhelmed.”

Cough~Actually, Ao Yang is really not a complete evil dragon, he took good care of me and my parents, I have almost forgotten the initial unpleasantness now...

However, Xitu only dared to think about these words in his heart. Once he said them, Rui would be very shocked. He didn’t know where to start to explain. Who made Ao Yang’s reputation as a “dragon” have a far-reaching impact?

"I know Yafu, I, I, my mother and father have never angered Ao Yang, and Ao Yang will not get angry and vent our anger on us for no reason." Tu tried his best to help Ao Yang with good words.

Of course, Rui didn't feel anything special when he heard it. He couldn't stay in the holy lake for a long time, because Ao Yang didn't allow it, and besides, he was busy hunting, so the time we met each time was not long.

"Okay, let's go back, Xitu, Yafu will come to see you when he has time, don't step into the jungle if you have nothing to do, you are not the opponent of the beast."

"Okay, Yafu must be careful, go to Joonke and the others quickly." Xitu told him sensiblely, he knew that Rui was used to hunting with Joe and Jia, and the other two orcs were probably around at this time. Lurking nearby to watch for the beast's whereabouts.

——If possible, I hope that our tribe will never slay dragons, and let the past go, it’s not worth the loss...

east coast coast

Now that he has made up his mind, Ao Bai got up very early. After he dragged the mermaid to swim to the coast of the mainland, it was still a bright morning, and the dragon and fish were not familiar with the conditions of the dense forest on land. Of course, it would be better in the daytime. Observe the environment carefully and find the right direction.

"Don't worry, let's see where it is safe to go ashore." Ji Mo said to Ao Bai, he was still a little hesitant.

If it wasn't because of my shoulder injury not recovering well, Ao Bai wouldn't have taken the risk to accompany me ashore. If the land orcs found out and besieged me, wouldn't it be all because of me?

"Ji Mo, in the past when I couldn't take shape and was injured, you never disliked me... Believe me, we have the same heart for each other, please don't act so guilty? You will make me feel like this. I feel like I don’t care enough about you, which is why I’m making it hard for you now.”

The mermaid looked at the rising continental shelf not far away, and then thought about his current physical condition that could not be of much help. He was making a difficult decision in his heart, and he did not speak for a long time, "Don't be afraid of Ji Mo, as long as we are careful, there will be no danger. Yes." Ao Bai said resolutely, he has decided to go ashore to the holy lake today to seek help from Ao Yang.Seeing his partner's trouble sleeping and eating, he felt very uncomfortable: I can't just watch his arm like this in the future, and don't try any promising methods, so how can I feel at ease?

"Let's find out if there is any place where fresh water enters the sea. It's better to go by water." Ao Bai encouraged him, he was still in dragon shape for the time being, and Ji Mo stood beside him wagging his tail.

"Thank you, Ao Bai. Let me say it first. If we find something wrong after we land, we must return to the sea immediately. We can't force our way. Those land orcs are not vegetarians." Ji Mo looked into Bailong's eyes and said, he finally I feel that I have to take a risk for my health and body for the rest of my life.

"Well, don't worry Ji Mo, I won't force my way, and I'll take you with me." Ao Bai successfully persuaded his partner, smiling relaxed and joyful.

They began to search for freshwater basins that emptied into the ocean along the coastline.

It's a pity that the couple searched all over the coast of the Eastern Continent, but they didn't find any small rivers or streams with fresh water flowing into the sea.

"Impossible. The dense forests of the Sicilian mainland look like primeval forests. Will there be less rainfall? Will there be fewer lakes and streams?" Ji Mo felt that it was very unreasonable.

At this time, they will reach the coast of the Western Continent after a few more steps. Ao Bai is unwilling to go ashore there. His reason is of course: "No, that is the territory of the cunning Ying people. They are very familiar with mermaids, and they have attacked us in sneak attacks, we are not their opponents on land." Bai Long said very frankly.

"Then why don't we land on the beach where Xitu came ashore? That little tiger cub chose that place to meet us at the beginning, which means that the beach is safe and secluded—as for the streams and lakes, we can only take a step to see them, and then touch them after going up. You're lucky." Ji Mo analyzed calmly, "Since everything is the same strange, it's better to take the same path as Xitu."

After being attacked and injured by the eagle orcs, the crossing fish has a new understanding of the sharp conflicts between races and tribes in this world, but I am afraid that the problem cannot be solved, so I have to leave the safe ocean and land on land today.

The white dragon and the mermaid gradually turned into human shapes. They put on simple clothes and straw sandals. The bag behind Ji Mo contained white jade crab paste, flint, shark bone spurs and other items. Ao Bai also held a thin stick in his hand. Long sharp shark teeth serve as makeshift weapons.

They first observed for a long time on the reefs by the beach, and after making sure that there was nothing abnormal in the bushes and dense forests ahead, they cautiously set foot on the solid ground of the Sicilian mainland.

※※※

"Aobai~ Let's go this way, the bushes here are more lush." ​​Ji Mo greeted his partner with his breath.

After leaving the beach, they walked lightly into a low bush covered with thorns and weeds. Not far away was a gentle slope full of weeds, and further up was the primeval jungle that covered the sky and the sun.

The couple chose their route while guarding their surroundings.

Ji Mo looked and looked at the appearance of the primeval jungle in the distance, and after a while, he analyzed it on the ground with shark teeth and showed it to his partner: "Ao Bai, look, this is the Sea of ​​Sicily, this is the Eastern Continent of Sicily, and this is the Western Continent." Mainland, we swam along the coast of the eastern continent and did not find any traces of fresh water flowing into the sea, so I guess the terrain of the entire Sicilian continent should be high in the east and low in the west, and the freshwater basins flow from east to west. It entered the sea on the western continent."

Ao Bai understood the topographic map on the ground that simply marked the east, west, north, south, and the height of the terrain. He looked at the jungle in front of him, and immediately drew inferences: "Well, your guess is reasonable. Ji Mo, look at the place in front of you. It is a jungle, the trees are obviously high on both sides and short in the middle, and there are usually streams, lakes and pools in the valley. Let's go through the wild grass first, and then go to the valley. As long as there is a water source nearby, I will Can sense the breath of water."

so smart!My dragon can figure it out on its own with just a little reminder...

Ji Mo felt that the trip to the mainland of Sicily went smoothly at the beginning, and he felt a little more relaxed. He continued to add with shark teeth gestures: "Well, I will do as you said. According to Xitu, the Eastern Continent, the Western Continent The holy lake and the holy lake should be quite far apart, and because Ao Yang lives in the holy lake, there must be very few orcs nearby. Moreover, since the holy lake can allow Ao Yang to live for so long, it means that the area must be not small. Otherwise, where will Ao Yang hide?"

Ao Bai nodded in agreement. He thought for a while and said, "Xitu said that he accidentally broke into the holy lake when he followed an adult orc into the deep forest, which means that the East Continent must be closer to the holy lake. The last time we met The location of the Eagle Clan is already at the tail of the Sicilian mainland, so the Eagle Clan should live very far to the west, so we don’t have to worry too much about running into them.”

Haha~ This is the joy of discussing things with like-minded teammates.

The adventurous factor in Ji Mo's bones began to activate slowly, and he analyzed again excitedly: "There is another very important point: Xitu said that after Ao Yang sent him back to the small river outside the tribe, he jumped into the river and disappeared. It shows that some or most of the waters in the dense forest of Sicily should be connected to or close to the holy lake!"

Ao Bai looked at his partner and smiled appreciatively, and then concluded knowingly: "So, we must not blindly look for the holy lake, but we should first find a way to find a stream or river with more abundant water, and then Dive down and follow the current slowly."

Ji Mo said confidently and energetically: "Besides, we'd better rest during the day and swim at night, because there are too many wild animals by the water during the day, and land orcs will also come out to hunt."

"Okay, we can find a place to stay in a deep water before dawn, and hide our whereabouts as much as possible, so you don't have to worry about me being besieged and attacked by land orcs."

Ji Mo suddenly touched Ao Bai with his forehead, and the latter immediately cupped his cheek with both hands knowingly, and kissed him deeply.

"Let's go, you have to follow me closely." Ao Bai pulled his partner up, and the two quickly pushed through the wild grass and got in.

It was still early in the morning, because they deliberately chose a direction without footprints to avoid land orcs that might appear, the barren grass was almost as high as two Aobai, and it was extremely hot and uncomfortable to walk in, with all kinds of insects chirping The sound echoed in the ears, which made people suddenly feel anxious, not to mention the red, swollen and itchy feeling that the exposed skin was constantly scratched by the sharp jagged grass blades.

After walking for a long time, the two sea orcs were sweating, especially Ao Bai.

Because Ji Mo's arms can't use his strength, Ao Bai walked ahead to open the way, forcing his way through the tangled and densely growing grass. Ji Mo followed closely, trying to stabilize his body, take every step well, and strive Don't let Ao Bai be distracted from taking care of himself.

The sun gradually rose, and they finally left the maddening grass after making a big circle.

The couple squatted down again and rested for a while.

"Come on, you sit on my lap." Ao Bai found a flat stone to sit on, and hugged his partner onto his lap.

"Are you hot? Do you get dizzy?" Ji Mo took out a huge bamboo tube from the bag he was carrying, filled it with sea water, and stuffed it into Ao Bai's hand, "Drink some water, your sweat has already stained your hair Got wet."

Ao Bai took it and put it on Ji Mo's lips first: "You drink first, I don't feel dizzy, it's just too hot."

Now my mermaid can’t even hold the bamboo tube up with both hands to drink water. If it were me who was injured, I would feel extremely depressed——Ao Bai blinked, and his long eyelashes gleamed in the sun With colored light, his eyes are clear and deep, like the beautiful water of the Sicilian Sea.

He helped Ji Mo push back all the black hair sticking to his cheeks, and said softly, "Are you tired? Do you want to lean against me and rest for a while?"

"I'm not tired." Ji Mo shook his head, sweating all over, feeling refreshed all over, he urged Ao Bai to drink water again.

Since we are in the original jungle, we will definitely not die of thirst, and bring some sea water just in case.

After resting for a while, they drank all the water and threw away the heavy bamboo tube, because the tall jungle was close at hand.

The inaccessible dense forest, abundant sunshine and abundant precipitation create a very beautiful scenery.

The big tree hugged by several people can be seen everywhere, and the enthusiastic big red leaf vines are densely climbing the big tree, bearing bright red fruits, exuding a mature fruit fragrance, attracting countless small hummingbirds busy Pick and peck.

The trees are too tall and the branches and leaves are too lush, blocking all the sunlight, and the ground is very quiet.

Ji Mo can no longer walk on his own, because the ground is either covered with thick dead branches and leaves, with one foot deep and the other shallow, full of variables, or slippery dead wood and stones covered with moss, he can't lift his hands , unable to maintain balance.

Ao Bai wrapped his partner's arm with one hand and led him away, and the two slowly moved forward in the established direction.

"Look, Ji Mo, that flower really stinks." Ao Bai raised his chin to the front left.

There was a rotten wood lying there, probably eaten by insects and ants. After it fell down, a hole was torn in the sky, and the sun poured down, illuminating a small area.

Next to the dead wood grew a plant about two meters high. The leaves were like plantains, but much shorter than plantains, only three or four leaves. On the head was a bright red flower, only two petals, emitting a There is a pungent smell, and the naked eye can see the dense black thorns inside the petals.

"It should be meat-eating. When bugs and birds fall into it, the petals will close." Ji Mo explained while enduring the pungent stench.

Ao Bai thought for a while, then picked up a dead branch and threw it in lightly. The big red flower immediately began to close quickly, and the petals trembled slightly.

"Sea God~" Ao Bai sighed in amazement.

Ji Mo whispered: "Since it knows how to catch, it will definitely be able to distinguish the prey."

Sure enough, not long after, the big red flower "spit" out the dead branches little by little.

After taking the opportunity to see the carnivorous plants in the dense forest, the two continued to move forward.

"Ji Mo, I feel the breath of water in that direction." Ao Bai hugged his partner vigorously, and said carefully across a dead tree lying in front of him.

"Well, let's be careful, there isn't even a single footprint around here, it's strange."

"Maybe, it's because, um, it's because this place is near the Sicilian Sea, and land orcs don't want to come here." Ao Bai guessed.

He simply hugged Ji Mo with one hand, because this is a relatively open place, and there are moss and dead leaves under his feet, and the moss is full of water. When he stepped on it, he would feel water with his feet, soft and soft. Cool and slippery, it feels very weird.

Not long after, when Ao Bai was resolutely stepping on another piece of moss, there was a sudden gurgling sound under his feet, and a string of blisters appeared, and his calf immediately sank into it.

Ji Mo narrowed his eyes when he saw it, and immediately reacted and shouted: "Ao Bai, back up quickly! This is a swamp!"
