As soon as Xiuhe's words fell, the behemoth in front of us began to stretch his body as if he had just woken up.
Although the space here is empty, because of the presence of him and the bones of other dragons, the actual remaining space is actually very small. When he moved like this, the sea water swelled violently, and he hesitated to pass through the hurricane, and it was really difficult for people to stabilize themselves in it. If it weren't for Xiuhe, I'm afraid I would have been swept back to the stairs by this time, and then I would have turned around and walked away, and I would never have come back.
I barely managed to get through the lazy waist he had stretched after waking up, and I quickly tidied up while the waves subsided. But I didn't expect him to see me like this when he was just over the body, and he bared his teeth at me like a mischievous, and the breath that came out set off another wave that almost knocked me to the ground.
"It's so cute. ”
Before I could stabilize my body, the dragon laughed and threw out this sentence. Although I understand that this is a deliberate provocation by him, and I should not fall into his trap, I have never been tricked so embarrassed, I really can't swallow this breath, and I can't help but want to scold back.
It's just that before I could speak, I was stopped by Xiuhe one step ahead.
"Where's Sinan?"
Xiu He's voice didn't add any tone, just a plain, simple but complete expression of his thoughts. Unfortunately, his straightforward way of asking questions obviously interrupted Jiaolong's interest, and Jiaolong turned his head sharply to Xiuhe, and said in a gloomy and fierce tone:
"Is this the Lord of the Underworld asking me a question? If I don't answer, will I die again?"
"No, this king can't find Sinan, you won't die. ”
"What about replacing Sinan with a floating line?"
"Yes. ”
There was no concealment in Xiuhe's answer, nor did there any change in tone, as if it were routine, with a straightforward mechanization. His attitude naturally angered the dragon, and after hearing his words, the dragon leaned down sharply, looked directly at him, and shouted at him word by word:
"You hypocritical monsters. ”
The dragon's loud roar caused the waves to roll again, and I was once again swept back a few steps by the sudden waves. However, Xiuhe, who was so close to him, always stood there, unmoved, and did not even frown, completely unaffected.
He faced him calmly and firmly, facing his accountability, without the slightest concession.
Man has to pay for what he has done, and so does God. ”
Xiu He finished this sentence slowly and calmly, and when he said this, the lines on his face increased a little, covering almost his entire face, and even faintly spreading to his neck, and the pale golden light also brightened a lot before it shone out, reflecting his whole person very strangely.
Faced with such a situation, I began to realize that what happened at that time may not be as simple as Xiuhe said, but in this situation, it is impossible for me to ask what happened to the two of them back then. In addition, Xiuhe had told me not to be reckless on the way here, so I could only stand here stupidly, watching the two of them face each other like this, and there was no way to provide any help to Xiuhe.
Just when I was very annoyed with myself, the dragon suddenly laughed at the two of us.
"Hahahaha, a good sentence is the same with God. Xiu and you touched your own conscience and told me, is it really the same? Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot, you gods, don't have a conscience at all. ”
The tone of this Jiaolong carried a kind of ridicule and unwillingness, as if he had suffered great grievances back then, and today he was finally able to complain. But Xiu He was completely unmoved by him, and continued to ask:
"Where's Sinan?"
"Why, is this a person who has been poked in the sore spot so you are in a hurry to avoid the problem?"
"My patience is limited. ”
"I finally got Sinan, and he is my most advantageous tool to destroy you, how can I tell you?"
Finally grasped the handle of Xiuhe, and Jiaolong no longer entangled with Xiuhe's past events, and began to talk about the purpose of our coming here today. It's just that there is a kind of contempt in his tone that is characteristic of the master, as if he intends to provoke Xiu He.
"As I said, my patience is limited. ”
"I don't know how you found this place, but it's useless for you to find it, because you can't kill me or stop what I want to do. What's more, I really didn't expect you to bring her to me, you must know that I spent a lot of effort to get her. ”
Jiaolong said as he turned his gaze to me. Although I had long known that I might be involved, I couldn't help but feel a little scared when I came into contact with his greedy gaze, and I couldn't help but hide behind Xiuhe.
Feeling my movements, Xiuwa held my hand hard. The warm touch passed from his palm to mine, and my flustered heart gradually settled. It's just a pity that this stability didn't last long, because I knew that things were starting to deviate from my expectations and go in the worst direction.
"Do you think you can touch her with me?"
"I really can't move today, but after today, maybe the Heavenly Emperor will need to find a new Lord of the Underworld. ”
"Phew, you're a fool's dream. ”
Hearing him say this, I really didn't care about the admonition of reconciliation and opened my mouth to refute him. When the dragon heard what I said, he smiled and said to me:
"You still trust Xiuhe so much, I'm afraid there are a lot of things, he hasn't told you yet, right? It doesn't matter, in fact, you don't need to know too much, according to their thinking, the less you know, the better it will be for you. But don't you really want to know why I have to get Sinan, and why I have to get you? Or don't you want to know what happened after that monkey made trouble in the Heavenly Palace......
I have to admit that this cunning dragon completely grasped the sore spot of the two of us, and used it perfectly and just right. I was tempted to ignore what he said, but in fact, it was hard for me not to be influenced by him. I began to think back to that day with irrepressible thought, to the feelings I had felt over the years of searching for stones, but soon I realized that something was wrong.
"You were already locked up here when the stone made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, how could you possibly know what happened after this. ”
I questioned Jiaolong loudly and put on a "I won't believe what you say" expression in an attempt to make myself look more confident. But after listening to my question, he laughed as if he had heard some great joke, and said to me:
"Yes, you're right, I was locked up here, but have you forgotten what you're here for? Have you forgotten what you've just been through?"
