89. Jokes and misses, you already knew?
The cold wind whirled and swirled in the depths of the dense forest, mixed with the sudden fall of goose feather snow, making it difficult for people to open their eyes, so they could only turn their backs to the direction of the wind, bending over and shuttling through the jungle.
The disguised Ao Bai covered the mouth of the lone priest tower in the chaos just now, and ran fast with the other party, and he was already familiar with the terrain near here.
Running out of the distance in one breath, when the vast and empty holy lake was in front of him, Ao Bai gently let go of the tower priest and roared in a low voice towards the holy lake.
"Who are you? What do you have to do with the dragons of the Sacred Lake? Why did you arrest me? Ta questioned in surprise and anger, his gray hair, slender and clear figure, and his kind countenance, although he was in danger of being taken captive at this time, but he still maintained the calmness and self-restraint that he should have.
Ao Bai took a few steps back, hoping that his retreat would make the other party feel less threatening.
"You're the Tower Priest, aren't you? I have asked you to come here today because I have something to ask for. Ao Bai replied gently, glancing in the direction of the holy lake from time to time.
According to the arranged plan, at this time, the eldest brother should take Qingzhe out and pick up the priest, they are of the same clan, and it is convincing to communicate and explain.
"Are you calling for a please? It's clearly a robbery! Ta straightened his back proudly, and pointed out unceremoniously that he was carefully looking at the young man standing opposite:
- What tribe is this orc from? Judging by his height and size, it shouldn't be from the Bobcat or Spotted Dog tribe; Looking at his nose, eyes, and fingers, it shouldn't be from the Raptor tribe, so who is he?
ββHmm~ When collecting medicine just now, several orcs by the river suddenly shouted a warning, saying that it was an evil dragon attack, so everyone should flee quickly. So is this orc an accomplice of the dragon? But there was no malice in his eyes, what could he do for my help? Dragons, damn dragons......
The two sides were at a stalemate, and Ao Bai didn't know how to show his kindness to an elderly land female, so he had to stand silent; The tower is quickly thinking about and analyzing how to get out of danger.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you, I just want to ask you for a favor." Ao Bai tried his best to soften his voice, trying to make himself look kinder.
It's a pity that the little white dragon has a high nose and deep eyes, silver hair and blue eyes, and fair skin that are very different from the land orcs, and they can't let the land priests relax at all.
"What's the rush? Let's start with that. Ta asked warily, although he was angry, but after all, he was old, and he could regulate his emotions after much experience, and he would not act rashly or provoke the other party uncontrollably, which would only suffer more harsh treatment.
After Ao Bai glanced in the direction of the sacred lake bushes again, a pair of figures finally flashed out of the gap there.
As soon as Qingzhe came out, he shouted in surprise: "Tower priest! As he spoke, he walked over quickly, supporting the other party, first of all, to reassure:
"Come, come into the house with me first, don't be afraid, Xitu and I are now living in the wooden house in front of us, the wind and snow outside are too strong, let's go into the house and talk slowly." Don't worry, they won't hurt you, otherwise Xitu and I wouldn't be alive now. β
Qing Zhe laughed and comforted as he spoke, and helped his fellow clan to walk inside.
Ta was even more dazed the moment he saw Qing Zhe, he had a stomach full of questions, but he didn't know where to start, and there was no other way at the moment, so he could only follow Qing Zhe in disbelief.
"What about the two of them? δΈqiΔι½ι‘ΊlΓ¬, right? Ao Yang asked with concern.
Ao Bai nodded, "It's very smooth, I'll go and bring Xitu back now, and trouble the eldest brother to help take care of the priest first." β
"Go, I am at home, restrain Rong Tuo, don't let him get into trouble." Ao Yang reminded lightly.
"Big brother who knows, then I'll go now."
"Hmm."
After the little white dragon nodded slightly, he turned around and ran into the snowstorm again.
******
"Why hasn't Ao Bai come back to pick me up yet?" The cubs hide in the warm and fluffy snow nest boringly, and occasionally sneak in to observe the situation outside.
"That abominable green dragon! Hum! Xitu gritted his teeth and cursed, helplessly looking at Rong Tuo, who was dancing with teeth and claws in the glacier below.
But this time, Rong Tuo really listened to Ao Bai's advice and remembered it in his mind, he didn't dare to move his real character today, at most it was just pure provocation.
And because after his heart was settled recently, he was in a period of proudly transforming his dragon identity, and as soon as his claws touched the water, he couldn't help but practice the ability to control the water, and he couldn't wait to use the water rope and water column water curtain to strip off the flowers and trees of the entire Sicilian continent.
"Hahaha~~~ I can't help but fight!" Rong Tuo shook his head and laughed proudly, and with a wave of his claws, he knocked down a land orc on the shore with a jet of water.
Xitu was very nervous at first, for fear that this evil dragon would not be able to retract its claws, make a fake show, and really hurt which of the tribesmen of the beast tribe would really hurt, but then he was relieved to look at it.
- Alas~ Forget it, I hope those Angke don't get too angry, just play with a naughty little orc.
The snow nest shelters from the wind and snow, and it is safe and warm next to an inconspicuous high slope of rock.
But Shetu was bored.
"Huh~ Why didn't you come back to pick me up?"
Every few breaths passed, Xitu, who couldn't calm down, had to sigh with a sad sigh.
Moreover, the little tiger cub, who had little patience to wait, poked out his left forelimb countless times in the middle, but in an instant he remembered Ao Bai's stern admonition:
- Xitu, you must be obedient, the beasts in the forest in the cold season are hungry and their eyes are green, and you must hide here obediently, waiting for me to come back and pick you up!
So, he could only withdraw his paw in displeasure and continue to lie on his stomach.
Suddenly, a drowsy Seetu felt like he was being pulled by the fur on his back and shook violently.
"Whew~~~~!"
Who? Who is it?
After struggling for a moment, Xitu finally saw the face of Rong Tuo with a malicious smile.
"Hehehe~~ Coward! It turns out that the king of beasts in the land and dense forests looks like this. Rong Tuo said defiantly, very disdainful.
Just now he successfully scared away a large group of land orcs, and at this time, Rong Tuo's mood was extremely happy.
I don't know what kind of consideration this dragon had, he found the materials himself, and blindfolded the eye that the eagle man caught blind, so Rong Tuo is now a veritable one-eyed dragon.
"Let go of me! If you dare to bully me, Ao Bai Ao Yang will not let you go! Xitu stretched out his claws, trying to scratch but couldn't reach the other party, and grinned in anger.
Hahaha~ It's a great feeling to bully this little land cub!
After admiring Xitu's struggle and shouting for a moment, Rong Tuo raised his eyebrows maliciously and asked:
"Really?"
Then he suddenly threw Xitu up with all his might, and then caught him again before the other man's cry of fear was about to hit the ground, and then threw and catched, and then and again, and again
- Until the last toss, the toss was the highest, but in the middle of the fall, Xitu twisted his body vigorously, and Rong Tuo was smug and relaxed, so he didn't pay much attention.
So, he didn't succeed in catching the tiger cub.
After a dull "plop", Xitu fell hard.
Rong Tuo's face changed in an instant, and he immediately flew over.
If it falls on top of the snow, it shouldn't be possible; But the problem is that there is also a large protruding and sharp stone next to it, which is covered with a layer of snow that is not thick.
"Hey! Are you still alive? Don't play dead, I warn you. Rong Tuo pounced over and hugged the little tiger cub, shaking desperately, he smelled the sudden smell of blood, looked at the small patch of snow that was rapidly dyed red below, and immediately panicked.
It's over, it's over, it's over! I can't have fallen to my death, right?
Rong Tuo hurriedly put the little tiger cub flat on the snow and nervously checked the other party's body.
"Whew~ Fortunately, I didn't hurt my head." Rong Tuo sighed and muttered to himself.
Rong Tuo stretched out his hand to cover Xitu's bleeding right hind limb, and his fingers trembled uncontrollably when he knew that he was getting carried away and causing trouble.
"Damn! If I knew you couldn't help falling like this, I wouldn't have bothered you......" Rong Tuo scolded in annoyance and helplessness, picked up the little tiger cub while scolding, and strode towards the direction of the holy lake, infinitely worried about the merciless punishment he might receive when he went back later.
"The eldest prince will definitely be angry, there is no doubt about this! Anyway, this is not his child, what do you love so much? Rong Tuo pondered in confusion, "Then, will Ao Bai be angry?" Hmm~ It should be, but after all, I'm his dragon, and I helped him today, and his mermaid Ji Mo also cares about me, so when the eldest prince beats me, they should intercede for me, they should be...... Right? β
The more Rong Tuo thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more frightened he became, the slower his steps became, and finally he simply stopped, looking at the unconscious little tiger cub in his arms with remorse.
ββAlas~ If only I hadn't played tricks on him just now.
Maybe Rong Tuo's gaze was too hot and the repentance was too strong, he looked at it, and actually really woke up Xitu.
"Woo woo~~~"
Rong Tuo was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief, "Hey~ Hurry up and sober up, I know you're pretending to be dead and scaring me!" β
After Xitu opened his eyes, he only felt that the back of his head was buzzing, his feet hurt again, and what made him angry the most was that he was so close to the evil dragon Rong Tuo!
"You hit me! Damn it, how dare you hit me! Situ shouted viciously, and he quickly rolled over and stood awkwardly on the snow.
Hey~ It looks like this cub is fine, it's really good.
Rong Tuo held his mouth stiffly: "I beat you?" What did I hit you? Don't wronged the good dragon! β
"Didn't you make me like this?" Xitu was extremely aggrieved, the corners of his mouth pursed, and he turned his head to walk in the direction of the holy lake, at this time he was thinking about going back to complain.
Hmph~ I can't beat you, can't Ao Yang and Ao Bai clean you up?
"What are you doing? What do you want to do? Rong Tuo was shocked and hurriedly stopped the other party.
"Fuck off! Don't get in my way! Cetu yelled violently, and he was so angry that he was about to lose his mind.
Rong Tuo could only squat down and gritted his teeth and coaxed: "I just wanted to make a joke for you just now, if you didn't move by yourself, how could I not catch you?" So, you have to bear at least half of the responsibility for this accident! β
"Ho~~~! What did you say? Xitu gasped and glared at the other party in disbelief.
My beast god, what a brazen dragon!
Rong Tuo continued to work hard and justifiably defended himself: "Isn't it? If I really want to do anything to you, so that you only scratch a piece of skin? Anyway, I have to break a few legs, right? So, you're the cub of the king of beasts, can't you be generous and tolerant? β
"Yes, yes?" Xitu listened suspiciously to the other party's words of evasion, after all, he was a cub, and his mind was far from being complicated and deep, he turned his head to look at his hind limbs that had automatically stopped the bleeding, and licked them silently.
Looking at the stupid cub in front of him who was obviously moved by his own words, Rong Tuo snickered in his heart and continued to accuse the other party of being stingy and thin.
- "It's just joking with you, is there such a big reaction?" β
- "I could have caught you, but you were all to blame for messing around!" β
- "You land orc cubs are so weak that they can fall like this with a light fall, at most I won't touch you in the future, right?" β
Xitu couldn't listen anymore, and broke off: "Enough! Did you say enough was enough? They are all dragons, but Ao Yang and Ao Bai will never make such excessive jokes with me, they have never hurt me, and they will not dare to do it! β
ββ¦β¦ What, what. Rong Tuo held back his face with embarrassment, and was drunk for a while.
Of course, he knew that he was wrong, so he was weak and lacking in confidence.
Xitu squinted his eyes slyly, dragged his injured leg and straightened his chest and paced proudly for a few steps, and said quite calmly and calmly: "Whose fault is it, I don't want to quarrel with you, go back and tell everyone and let them hear." β
"Is it necessary to make a big deal about such a small thing?" Rong Tuo asked angrily.
Xitu raised his head even more proudly, "Since you think it's a trivial matter, why do you care about making a big fuss or a small fuss?" β
Rong Tuo was out of options, and smashed his fist on the snow, but unfortunately he also touched a stone, and his fist suddenly scratched a large piece of skin, and blood quickly gushed out.
"Say! How the hell are you going to go back so that you won't sue me? Rong Tuo asked in frustration like a defeated rooster.
When the little tiger cub heard this, he became even more proud, and the little paw prints on the snow were almost as light as if they were about to fly.
"Hahaha~~ You just said this earlier? Do you think I'm that stupid? β
"Yes, yes, you're the smartest, okay?" Rong Tuo laughed mockingly.
After pondering for a long time, Xitu finally put forward his own conditions: "If you want me not to go back to complain, that's not impossible, who made us land orcs inherently tolerant and generous?" β
Rong Tuo rolled his eyes in disgust at this time, and didn't say a word.
"Hmm~ It's better to do this," Xitu solemnly made his request, "Rong Tuo, I want you to capture at least one beast every day during this cold season and send it outside our tribe until the warm season comes!" If you could do it, I'll treat it as if nothing happened today. β
When he heard this, Ao Bai, who had long been hidden in the shadows, walked out with an approving smile, clapped his hands and said loudly:
"Good! Rong Tuo, if you can coax Xitu to dissipate your anger, then I won't punish you. β
"Ah~ Ao Bai, you're finally here, your dragon bullied me just now." Xitu ran over at an unsteady pace, and couldn't help but sue anyway.
Ao Bai bent down and picked up the little tiger cub, checked his injuries first, and found that it was indeed only a flesh injury before he was relieved.
"Have you already sent the Tower Priest home?" Xitu asked with concern.
"Well, I'll be back for you as soon as I put him down." Ao Bai said with a smile.
"Why is it so slow? If you had come earlier, your dragon wouldn't have dared to bully me. Chitu muttered.
Ao Bai apologized seriously: "I'm sorry, I came late and made you feel wronged." β
Rong Tuo cautiously interjected: "Wang, I, I'm really just joking around with him, if it's true, can he still have the life to sue me alive?" β
"Rong Tuo! Do you know what you're talking about? Ao Bai's eyes widened, and he reprimanded the guardian dragon he had just collected with great momentum.
"IβWhat's wrong with me?" Rong Tuo asked aggrievedly in a whisper, "I really didn't lie this time, I originally wanted to have fun, who knew that he was moving, so I accidentally threw him down." β
Ao Bai hugged the little tiger cub and said hatefully: "Is there anyone like you who are playing around?" Xitu is still just a cub, how strong can he be? Everything has to be well measured, measured! Fortunately, nothing big happened to Xitu this time, otherwise you would never have been able to end it! β
"I apologize, so can't I apologize?" Rong Tuo said with great humiliation, feeling that he had reached the limit, "I'm sorry Xitu, I lost my hand and fell on you when I teased you just now, I hope you can forgive me." β
Ao Bai didn't speak, he didn't want to deliberately take sides, but wanted to deal with the matter as fairly and impartially as possible.
"Xitu, what do you think? Let's hear it. Ao Bai lowered his head and asked the little orc.
The little tiger cub nestled triumphantly in the arms of the little white dragon, looking down condescendingly at Rong Tuo, who was bowing his head and being trained, in fact, the anger in his heart had completely dissipated. The cub was simple, and he was very happy when he felt that Ao Bai cared about him and saw the guy who was playing tricks on him eat deflated.
"Oh, as I said earlier, if he's willing to catch a beast every day and send it to my tribe, that's all for today." Shetu repeated.
Ao Bai smiled with emotion, steadily carried the cub to the holy lake, and asked, "Why do you make this request?" β
Xitu said melancholy: "Oh~ Although I live in the holy lake, there is never a shortage of food, but in the cold season, the people always have not enough food, because when the snowstorm comes, they can't go into the dense forest to hunt. So, anyway, Rong Tuo is idle and idle, he likes to fight so much, so he goes hunting. β
"Well, we're good pups." Ao Bai praised, and then turned his head and asked Qinglong:
"Rong Tuo, do you understand? If the dragon clan dares to do it, you must dare to do it, even if Xitu's injury today is an accident, but this accident is also caused by you, if Xitu goes back to sue Brother SΓΉ and Qingzhe, it is estimated that it will be difficult to end, you make your own decision. β
Xitu also added fire, "Yes, you hurt me, my mother and father will not forgive you, and Ao Yang will not forgive you." β
After weighing the pros and cons many times, Rong Tuo finally agreed wisely, and said extremely aggrievedly:
"Well, isn't it just a beast a day? It's hard for me! β
"Hey~ The point is to send it to my tribe!" Xitu hastened to emphasize, "Hmm...... Let's just quietly put it by the river. β
Rong Tuo nodded heavily, and said in a cold tone: "Know, Dao, it's over!" Are you satisfied? β
Ao Bai was happy to see it, "This is what you should bear, and it just allows you to exercise your ability to capture prey with a rope, isn't that good?" β
Hmph~ I just need to sharpen your claws, and by the way, sharpen your temperament, so that you can understand what the word "proportion" represents!
Rong Tuo couldn't help but exclaim: "King! How can you help the landed cubs and let me feed the beast tribe? They are our enemies! β
Ao Bai glanced at his guard dragon, "Sober up Rong Tuo, don't you know how big the beast tribe is?" What is it to send a beast every day? Won't they all starve to death if you don't send them? It's just a punishment for you. β
I'm just going to bang and knock you......
"But-" Rong Tuo was still unconvinced, but he didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only reluctantly follow behind, he still wanted to go back to the holy lake to live, he always lived in an underground dark river, and he was as pitiful as he wanted.
Xitu was very happy, he lay in the arms of the little white dragon, poked his head out of his shoulder, and grimaced at the green dragon behind him from time to time, and he was in a really good mood.
And Rong Tuo naturally saw it all in his eyes, although he was angry, he also understood that he really shouldn't always have trouble with a cub, and that was actually not interesting.
Ao Bai walked quickly towards the holy lake, he still remembered the priest he had just sent back, and he was a little worried about whether the other party was willing to help.
- The god of the sea blesses, I hope the tower is willing to help us, and Ji Mo's situation cannot lack priests.

West
During this time, Ao Mu first had an itch in his heart, then itching on his hands, then itching in his feet, and finally itching all over his body.
"I don't know if what the green dragon said is true or false." The female Jiao Bai Yan said uneasily and resentfully, she was also tempted.
Ao Mu lowered his voice and said, "No wind and no waves, it doesn't look like a fake to hear him say." Hehe~ Although I saved his Junny's life, if he dares to lie to me, I can also take back his life at any time! β
Bai Yan gritted her teeth and said, "If what Junny said is true, then what should we do now?" I really can't imagine that Xiaobai will have such a day, actually, actually...... I already knew that he couldn't be an ordinary royal dragon......" At the end, the female Jiao's eyes rekindled with brilliance.
Ao Mu squinted at her and sneered: "Come on, we have completely torn our faces with Ao Bai last time, I said that you "already knew" that it was too late, right?" β
