Chapter Twenty-Six: The Fox of Destiny
Melissa walked into the dimly lit room. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This small room, there are no flowers and plants, only some simple furniture, very empty.
In the middle of the house, a figure in a robe knelt on a cushion with folded hands. In front of her was a table with a black spirit tablet. Two flickering oil lamps flanked the plaque, and the dim orange light was the only source of light in the room.
Seeing this scene, the queen didn't make a sound, just stood quietly in place and waited.
After a long time, the person kneeling on the mat finally moved, ending the memorial service to the dead. She stood up, turned around, and took off the hood from her head.
The pink hair was carefully combed into two low ponytails, hanging down at the sides, and dyed orange-red under the dim oil lamp. Neat bangs to the upper eyelid eyes, covering the forehead. Hidden under the long eyelashes are a pair of beautiful purple gemstone pupils. Coupled with a small nose and slightly plump cherry lips, it makes for a cute and beautiful face.
She was wearing a wide white robe, but it was still difficult to hide the high bulge, slightly exaggerated breasts, and the **** that appeared behind her. It's not hard to imagine how beautiful it is to be in shape under the robe.
She's a cute girl.
But her face was expressionless, giving people a cold feeling. Like Wei Ya, she is an iceberg beauty, but she is very different from Wei Ya.
Wei Ya's coldness was like a blade, sharp and resolute, and those who approached only felt fear and awe.
And the girl in front of her is like a snow lotus blooming on the top of a snow peak. Proud, lonely, holy as snow, there is a charm of an immortal hermit who does not fall into the dust. Approaching her will only raise a sense of inferiority complex and dirt from the bottom of my heart.
"Queen Melissa, the goddess of the moon protects you. ”
Xin Meng bent down and saluted Melissa. The sound is crisp and pleasant to the ear.
"Xin Meng, you don't need to salute. I'm here this time to do the song. You also know what happened at the gate of the tribe today, right?"
Queen Melissa understood the character of the girl in front of her, and without any politeness, she directly stated the purpose of this visit.
Xin Meng nodded and replied, "I understand what the Queen meant. However, I need to confirm this matter myself before I can give you an answer. ”
After speaking, she looked sideways at the spirit card on the table, paused, and her tone became a little dull: "If he is really the soul that my mother bought with my life, I will accompany him." Until my destiny befell me, to die for the tribe like my mother. ”
"Xin Meng, hard work. ”
The queen sighed under her breath, not knowing how to open her mouth to comfort.
Each race that stands on this continent and can be called will have its own hole cards and special existences. And Xin Meng is a special existence of the fox race, the guardian race of the fox race: the fox of destiny.
Perhaps it can't be called a race, but a magical inheritance, because each generation of Destiny Fox appears randomly from the tribe and has no fixed form of existence. They have the ability to transcend time and space, watch cause and effect, and even change cause and effect.
If the Silver Fox Royal Clan is the head of the Fox Clan, then the Fox of Destiny, which is a single lineage, is the eyes of the Fox Clan.
They are known as the prophets of the fox clan, but they are not known by the ordinary fox clan. Only important members of the royal family know about their existence, but they guide the future development direction of the fox clan.
The Fox of Destiny guards the fox clan, and their magical abilities naturally need to pay a price.
And the price is...... Life.
The last prophet, that is, Xin Meng's mother. Watching the cause and effect, choosing self-sacrifice to touch the fluctuating cause and effect line, just to change the cruel fate that the fox clan is about to usher in.
Outsiders don't know much about her sacrifice. Melissa also knew that she had only one simple sentence left:
On the banks of the Styx, the song of the ferryman. Souls from other worlds will be the teachers of our people's rise and fall.
And now that Duge's heart has changed drastically, as if he has changed a person, isn't it like his soul has been replaced?
"Your Excellency doesn't have to be like this, it's my duty, the mission of the Fox of Destiny. ”
Xin Meng bowed to Melissa again, she clearly understood the mission on her shoulders.
The queen looked at Xin Meng, blinked her eyes, and suddenly asked in a tone that was not very sure:
"And him...... Will you be like your mother?"
didn't expect the queen to suddenly ask such a question, Xin Meng paused slightly, and then lowered his eyes. The sound doesn't change at all, it's as flat as water:
"No, it won't. My mother was wrong, and she fell into the mortal love net to have me. I am fortunate and unfortunate to have enjoyed a family affection that my ancestors never enjoyed. I was also greedy, resentful of my father, who had never been there, for not being able to give me another affection. My mother never mentioned my father, and all I saw was that she secretly wept all day long, trapped by the mortal love network. I know the pain deeply. In public and private, I will not make my mother's mistakes again. ”
Xin Meng arched his body slightly and continued:
"I understand what the Queen means, but please pass it on the way we are. When I die, look for the next Fox of Destiny among the new pink-haired newborns of the Horde. ”
The inheritance of the Fox of Destiny is not continuous, after the death of the previous one, the next one will naturally be born into the fox tribe. This unique way of inheritance makes there a big gap between the previous term and the next term, and sometimes the two terms can be separated by hundreds of years.
Moreover, the newly-born Fox of Destiny will also be isolated, absorbing the memories and knowledge from the inheritance.
They are the eyes of the fox people, guiding the fox people, but they are lonely.
Extreme lack of emotion, no affection, no love, no friendship. Just for the mission on his shoulders, he lives alone. But Xin Meng and her mother are a special existence in the thousand-year-old inheritance. Her mother crossed the rules of the past and captured love.
Xin Meng was also born, and in the records of her fox clan, the first child born to a fox of destiny.
In the past, some people have also tried to make the Fox of Destiny give birth to children, accelerate the inheritance, and reduce the fault. But they all failed. The longer the Fox of Destiny lives, the thinner his personal feelings become. There is no love for sex, and there is no hair for them to give birth to the next generation.
And Xin Meng, as the first child born by the Fox of Destiny, has also become completely immobile in the growth process. The previous Fox of Destiny was carefully cared for, and she grew up under the thick of maternal love, more like an ordinary person. The fox of destiny is as cold as a machine.
"Xin Meng, do you really not think about it?"
"I only exist for the mission. ”
Queen Melissa sighed and gave up her attempts to persuade.
"Come as you wish. ”
Sending Queen Melissa out of the room, Simon returned to the cottage again. He knelt on the ground facing the spirit card, lowered his head, his long pink hair scattered, and whispered to himself.
"Mother, my existence...... It's a mistake, right?"
