I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

"The child at home was beaten, so I will naturally come to support him." The visitor had black hair fluttering, and was dressed in dark black clothes, exuding a sense of heaviness.

"You mean, he is..." Jiu Se Lu took a few steps back and carefully looked at the guy he had beaten into a puddle of mud.

"My little snake." The man completed what Jiu Se Lu hadn't finished, and touched Xiao Hei's head with his hand.

Under his hands, Xiao Hei turned into a human form, still dressed as a little girl. At this moment, he was lying on the ground indecently, the bun on his head was loose, his clothes were scanty, his body was covered with scars, and he was in pain. They don't want to open their eyes.

The man relaxed his movements, and hugged him into his arms as if bending over to pick up a cloud, and wiped his dirty little face with white jade-like fingers.

Xiao Hei opened his eyes, his head was in a mess, and the boiling blood in his body told him that the person who hugged him shared the same blood with him.Is this person also a snake?

Xiao Hei felt uneasy, no one noticed that the snow in the sky suddenly stopped.The dark clouds dissipated, revealing the bright moonlight.

"Are you my father?" This feeling is completely different from his previous pair of fake parents. As soon as he saw him, Xiao Hei felt very close.He could feel that this person must have a lot to do with him.It's a pity that his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of white mist, and he couldn't see what he looked like.

The man froze for a moment, then smiled lightly, "Why do you think that way, you were raised by nature, where did your parents come from?"

It is true, but Xiao Hei really wants a belonging, "Then are you my son?"

"You are underage, where did you come from? Stop guessing, call me brother."

"Brother." Xiao Hei repeated these two words, his eyes suddenly became moist, tears flowed out of his eyes unstoppably, he grabbed the man's lapel and shouted, "Why did you come to me now? If you didn't come earlier, why did you come so late!"

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry!" The man really has no experience in raising children, and when he saw Xiao Hei crying, he hurriedly wiped his tears, "I didn't mean it, I just overslept. At that time, you were still an egg. I buried you in the sand and lay down beside you. After waiting for a long time, you didn’t come out, and then I fell asleep. No, I just woke up and ran away from home in a hurry Came out to find you."

"Liar, I have been in the secret realm for more than 2000 years, and I have never seen you!"

"Think about it carefully. When you were born, was there a big mountain next to you? That was me. After sleeping for a long time, my body was buried in sand."

Xiao Hei was crying, as if he wanted to pour out all the grievances of thousands of years, his eyes almost turned into watering cans, "You lied again, when I was born, there was a mountain next to me, but that mountain was round Yes, not strips at all."

"What long strips, my original shape is a turtle, isn't it round?"

"God tortoise?" Xiao Hei stopped crying suddenly, wait, aren't you a snake, why are you such a bastard.He is a majestic snake, how could there be a bastard brother, what a joke, the species are different, okay!

"That's right, you are a snake and I am a tortoise. We were born together. It is said in the book: Xuanwu shrinks in its shell, and the snake twists itself. This is us!"

Hearing such an answer, Xiao Hei's first reaction was not to think that his species had changed, but to think, so what kind of brother is this!

"You mean, we are Xuanwu, one of the four spirits of the sky, the master of wisdom. Then why, I am so young, but you are so old?"

The tortoise is actually a very patient animal. He was not angry when he heard Xiao Hei beat around the bush and scolded him for being old, "Originally we were the same age, but you forgot, we woke up halfway through sleep (sleep) and found that our belly Hungry, I went out to find food. Then you swallowed five mountains in a row, and set fire to hunt everywhere. Who knew that God couldn’t stand it anymore, so he sent a thunderbolt to strike you. I wanted to help you resist, but the thunder seemed to grow The eyes are like eyes, and I only cut you once when I turned the corner. Then you were chopped into coke from my body. I thought you were dead. I was very sad. I wanted to eat your body. Although you were mushy, but You are my brother, I can't dislike you for being bad."

Xiao Hei: "..."

"After eating you, I felt sick to my stomach. I thought maybe the mountains you ate hadn't been digested. I've never eaten dirt, and I don't know if my stomach can take it...Okay, I know I digressed again. I really didn’t want to spit you out because I disliked you. It’s really uncomfortable in my stomach. After I spit you out, I found the egg you turned into under your body that was split into coke , Fortunately, I spit you out, otherwise you would really die."

Xiao Hei: "..."

"Hehe, thank you."

"Thank you, they are all from my own family, so why not be polite."

Xiao Hei was speechless for a while again, why did he feel that the tortoise, which looks particularly safe and reliable, is a bit guilty?But in this way, he definitely can't be regarded as his elder brother, they are clearly the same age.A silly bastard like this must be the younger brother.

Xuanwu is twins in one body, and the other is indispensable, so it is no wonder that Xiao Hei always feels that something is missing, lonely and world-weary, and wants to have a relative and a family to make up for the regret.

Although he felt that the tortoise was a little silly, Xiao Hei was still happy in his heart.When he lived in the past, he always felt that something was missing, and desperately wanted to pursue that sense of belonging.This is also the reason why he tried his best to please Bai Jinzhi.Now, he seems to have found the other half of the puzzle in his life, he is no longer floating like duckweed in the water, and he is willing to have any stupid companions.

"It's a pity, I don't have any memories of the past. Now that my eyes are like this, I can't see you anymore." Xiao Hei reached out to touch the turtle's chin, touched his elegant beard, and instantly made up the picture in his head. The appearance of Guan Gong with a red face.

Fortunately, the tortoise didn't know what Xiao Hei imagined him to be.Of course, if he knew, nothing would happen.

Xuanwu was originally the one with the best temper among the four spirits of the sky, and the big reason for this was because of the tortoise.The basaltic tortoise and snake are one body, so there are two heads and two bodies, one is a turtle and the other is a snake, so the turtle can survive if the snake is killed.

Teng Snake is vicious and cunning by nature, and cares about every situation, but the hardware can't keep up, so he has to crawl on the four legs of the tortoise wherever he goes.The tortoise is slow-tempered, doesn't rush to do anything, is afraid of trouble, can ignore many things and doesn't like to stir up trouble, usually likes to nest up and sleep, sleep Eat when you wake up, and go back to sleep after eating.With such a salty lifestyle, Teng Snake is very dissatisfied with his half body.

But dissatisfaction belongs to dissatisfaction, and there is still a way to get away.It is precisely because of the nature of the tortoise that the big killer, the snake, cannot cause harm to the world, but it is also a good thing.

"King Nine Colors, look, can my brother's injury be healed?" asked the tortoise.Xiao Hei's eyes were blinded by Jiu Se, so naturally Jiu Se must be responsible.

"Congratulations on your recognition. Since you are Master Teng Snake, you are a distinguished guest. I offended you earlier, so I will heal Master Teng Snake's wounds." Although Jiu Selu's tone was respectful, his expression was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Then I would like to thank King Nine Colors." said the tortoise.

The nine-color deer nodded, and the white horns on its head shone brightly.Xiao Hei, who was bathed in the light, not only regained his clarity of eyes, but also the scars on his body disappeared.Xiao Hei was very surprised by such a powerful healing ability. What is the origin of this Nine-colored Deer?

"Hey, brother, you are not as ugly as I imagined!" After recovering from the injury, Xiao Hei immediately regained his vitality, and shouted, pulling at the turtle's beard.

The tortoise smiled helplessly, he really didn't mind being an older brother or a younger brother, anyway, they were the same person, so what's the point of arguing about it.Teng Snake is willing to be the elder brother, so let him do it well. In the eyes of Shen Gui, it is just a title.When they are reunited, they will be able to connect with each other. At that time, let alone the address, even the words will be saved. The other party will know what he is thinking, and there is no need to speak... Oh, after thousands of years, he almost Forgot, the Teng Snake in the past was a chatterbox, and he had to force others to speak even though he didn't need to speak.

"Thank you Haihan, King of Nine Colors, for not caring about Teng Snake's reckless behavior. Now that Teng Snake has been found, I will not bother you." Xuanwu thanked.

"You two just met again, there must be a lot of things to do, please." Nine-colored Deer made a gesture of seeing off the guests.

"Wait, brother, I was entrusted by someone, and I need two plants of rejuvenation grass to save people." Xiao Hei hurriedly shouted.

"King Nine Colors, look at this, is it convenient to give us two plants of grass. I am willing to exchange sea pearls from the Xuanming Sea, what do you think?"

Xuanminghai is located in a small space opened by the turtle itself, in which a magical sea clam grows, and the pearl it produces is also a treasure.Moreover, because of the place where the sea pearl was grown, it was exclusively monopolized by the tortoise, and no other family had it except him, so it was definitely enough to give it as a gift.

"Mr. Shengui is too far-fetched. It's just a few grasses. How dare you exchange them for sea pearls. Treat these grasses as a gift from me. It is a junior's honor to serve Master Xuanwu. Please don't refuse."

Xiao Heimu put on a face, that's not what you said just now.

"Then I would like to thank King Nine Colors." The turtle said with a smile.

Nine-colored deer nodded, just pretending that he didn't see Xiao Jiu's face, fully implementing the principle of double standards.I saw the twin horns on the top of his head flashing, and a big hole appeared between the horns, peeking into it from the hole, there is another world in the hole.The green waves are rippling, full of green grass, stretching as far as the eye can see.

The green grass seemed to be uprooted by someone, and it kept flying out of the hole and fell to the ground. No matter how you count it, there are more than a dozen.

"There are so many, we only need two." The tortoise was obviously an honest man.

"It's rare to be able to help Lord Xuanwu. For me, naturally there are not many."

"Then thank you." Xiao Hei put away all of them unceremoniously.What about the god grass, it is obvious that his small world is everywhere.

"Since you refuse to accept my sea pearls, if you encounter any troubles in the future, just come to me." said the turtle.

Nine-colored Deer smiled meaningfully, but didn't answer.

"Then let's go," said the turtle.

"Wait, I seem to have forgotten something." Xiao Hei said suddenly.

"what?"

Xiao Hei thought for a while, then shook his head, "Forget it, forget it, don't think about it, let's go."

The tortoise hugged Xiao Hei and left Tangchuan Oasis directly.Ji Zihe in the grove looked at their leaving figures, Erkang couldn't stop his hands in his heart, Xiao Hei, have you forgotten the comrades in arms who came with you.How would they go home without the big snake?

However, this is not the worst.When Ji Zihe and the others thought they had escaped, they saw Nine Colored Deer turn around and look directly in their direction.

"You two guests, there are many mosquitoes in the forest, so let's come out and talk."
