Chapter 18: Heaven is destined
After nine deaths and finally found the black scale python, Shi Jiu was both surprised and panicked!
Shi Jiu rubbed his eyes, and after getting a little closer, Shi Jiu finally saw clearly the body of a black-scaled python hanging on the leaning trunk of a tree in front of him.
Surprise and worry came to Shi Jiu's heart at the same time. Shi Jiuyi walked close and saw that the black-scaled python, like most spirit beasts, had died. And the head of the black-scaled python is almost broken from the body, and only a little bit of python skin is connected.
Shi Jiu took out a long knife in the storage bag and struggled to cut open the belly of the black-scaled python, it was empty, where was the figure of Dream Youth?!
"Hey!" Shi Jiu was disheartened, he looked at the black-scaled python's body with a dull gaze, and couldn't help but sigh.
Shi Jiu just stood in place, only his disappointed sigh in the silent air.
"You're here to save this girl too?" A deep voice came from the darkness: "Hehe, fate, this is fate!"
Shi Jiu was taken aback when he heard the voice, and he saw a middle-aged man walking slowly in the darkness in the distance.
"Don't be afraid, child, come here!" the middle-aged man stopped, stood there and beckoned.
The middle-aged man's voice was kind and warm, Shi Jiu knew that the old man he met in the depths of the Spirit Beast Valley was definitely not very human, who could he be?
All kinds of conjectures appeared back and forth in Shi Jiu's mind, could he be the teacher sent to the Spirit Beast Valley by the Battle Star Academy, or could he be some worldly master who lived in seclusion here?
But at this moment, Shi Jiu forgot all his fears, and a glimmer of hope slowly rose from his heart, and he walked firmly in front of the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was neatly dressed in clean clothes, and his hair was not messy at all. But his face was a little pale, and his eyes were dull.
Shi Jiu bowed deeply and said, "I heard you speak just now, I must have saved Dream Youth, Shi Jiu first thank you for your help!"
"It turns out that this girl's surname is Meng?!" The middle-aged man actually sighed and said, "Give me your hand, and I'll take you across the barrier to see her." ”
Shi Jiu decisively handed his hand over.
The moment the middle-aged man grabbed Shi Jiu's arm, his whole body trembled. He turned his head to stare at Shi Jiu, and his dim eyes suddenly burst into light.
The middle-aged man's voice trembled and said: "Everything is destined! Hahaha, I thought that the sky was going to destroy me, but I didn't think it would come true, but it fulfilled me!
Shi Jiu couldn't understand what the middle-aged man said, but the moment he felt his hand being held by the middle-aged man, suddenly time and space were blurry and messy.
Shi Jiu's consciousness was in a trance, as if it was only for a moment, and it seemed that he had gone through a long time, and when he recovered, he saw everything around him clearly, and finally surprised him.
Because Shi Jiu saw that there was a vast and boundless world in front of him, although it was still night, the moon was bright and the stars were scarce, and there was no terrifying environment and oppressive atmosphere in the depths of the Spirit Beast Valley.
There was a hollow-eyed girl sitting on the stone bench not far away, although there was a lot of dirt on her clothes and her hair was scattered, but she still couldn't hide her fresh, beautiful and elegant face, like a little fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.
There was also a puppy with blond hair jumping happily on her lap.
"Kiki, don't make trouble!" the middle-aged man snorted softly.
The golden puppy wagged its tail and twisted its little ass and giggled, exactly the voice of a little girl.
Shi Jiu chuckled in his heart, although he knew that everything in front of him must be unusual, but what was happening in front of him, Shi Jiu, who was still shocked, couldn't help but stick out his tongue.
The giggling golden retriever jumped off the fairy-like girl's lap and flew into the arms of the middle-aged man.
"This granddaughter of mine is a little naughty, it makes you laugh!" The middle-aged man said to Shi Jiu as if he was sorry, "This girl should be the dream youth you are looking for, right?"
The middle-aged man raised his hand and pointed at the girl with a glazed gaze.
Shi Jiu has never seen Meng Qingchun, but Brother Scar has said more than once that Meng Qingchun is as beautiful as a little fairy, and the girl in front of him with dull eyes is exactly such a fairy full of fairy appearance.
"I think it should be her?!" Shi Jiu muttered.
"So you don't know each other?! Forget it, you don't need to explain. I understand!" said the middle-aged man.
"What's wrong with her, how can she be like this?" Shi Jiu asked suspiciously, looking at the sluggish Dream Youth.
"Actually, it was my Kiki who rescued her. The middle-aged man stroked the puppy in his arms and said, "This little girl named Meng Qingchun has been poisoned in the belly of the black-scaled python, and her soul is free. In order to detoxify her, I used a secret method to seal her five senses: seeing, thinking, hearing, smelling, and talking, and now there is no major problem, and she can be cured in a few days with a little recuperation!"
Shi Jiu took a step back, bowed deeply and said, "Thank you again Uncle for coming to the rescue!"
"You don't have to rush to thank me, I still have something to trust!" the middle-aged man looked at Shi Jiu and said.
"Uncle but it doesn't matter, as long as I Shi Jiu can do it, I can't give up my definition!" Shi Jiu said categorically.
"Well, that's what you said yes. The middle-aged man smiled happily, "You must be able to do it, because only you can do it in the world!"
Shi Jiu was confused when he heard this, he was thinking that the uncle in front of him might be deliberately complimenting him, so that he could agree to what he had entrusted.
"I didn't deliberately compliment you! not what you think!" the middle-aged man saw through Shi Jiu's thoughts.
How did Shi Jiu know that any thought in his mind had already been reflected in the middle-aged man's consciousness at this moment. So the middle-aged man's words were completely answering Shi Jiu's inner question. When Shi Jiu heard this, he was both surprised and a little ashamed, his face turned red, and he stood there more and more cramped.
The middle-aged man said, "Please believe that what I say is true, only you can do what I entrusted." However, there are some reasons to tell you too early that all harm will not be good. But I can explain your doubts in front of you. Sit down and listen to me. ”
Shi Jiu gently walked to the edge of the stone platform and sat down quietly.
"Hey!" the middle-aged man stroked the puppy in his arms, sighed and said, "For me, this is destined by God, a sad story with a good beginning and no good ending." ”
