169 Something happened to the Sacred Lake?
Ji Mo saw the young eagle standing on the beach from a distance, he immediately smiled, and asked loudly: "Xiao You, we came up to have breakfast with you, okay?" ”
Xiao You was a little cramped, standing still, wanting to flap his wings, but the wound hurt again, and after a while, he tried his best to pretend to nod naturally, "Of course you can, why are you so free today?" ”
Xiaolong was lying on Ao Bai's shoulder, looking at Xiao You worriedly, Tong Yan was unscrupulous, and opened his mouth to ask, "Did you fall off the tree?" ”
"Uh~" Xiao You immediately felt embarrassed, squeaked in embarrassment, couldn't speak with his neck, and felt shameless to face Ao Yi's big clear blue eyes - Beast God, why did Ao Yi know that I fell from the tree? I'm embarrassed by the eagle's face!
Ji Mo and the others walked towards the beach, Xiaolong didn't wait for an answer for a long time, he was even more worried, and asked again: "Dad, did the eagle break?" He doesn't speak. ”
"Okay Yi'er, it's nothing, Xiao You, he teased you." Ji Mo knew that the young eagle was strong, so he hurriedly played a round softly.
At this time, they had already walked up to the young eagle, Ji Mo handed the breakfast basket to Ao Bai to carry, he squatted down, and first checked Xiao You's injury, "Well, the wound is not bleeding, does it still hurt?" Ji Mo asked, he carefully raised the wings of the young eagle, "Are the muscles and bones okay?" You have to know in your own heart, there are no priests here, and we don't know much about it. ”
The mermaid didn't mention [how was he injured], but only asked about the injury, which greatly alleviated Xiao You's embarrassment.
"The muscles and bones are fine, it's just a flesh wound, it's nothing." Xiao You replied softly, he stood motionless, meek, feeling the obvious distress and pity of the mermaid, and the young eagle began to feel sour again.
"Who covered this wound for you? It's too tight, too. Ji Mo said with a smile, he started to untie the cloth strip on Xiao You's wound, adjusted it and tied it again.
"It's Ao Yi's Uncle Rong and the little monster...... The father of Gerg helped me to wrap it. Xiao You sighed secretly and replied sadly.
Xiaolong was trying his best to look down, but when he heard his name being called, he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Rong is Gege's father, Gege is still sleeping, he was busy, so he didn't come." ”
"Busy with what? Sleep in? Xiao You pursed his lips and muttered in disdain.
Xiaolong grinded his claws, blinked his eyes, and retorted in a milky voice: "Ge Ge is not lazy, he is too tired." ”
“…… All right. After all, Ao Bai Jimo was present, and Xiao You didn't want to argue with Stupid Xiaolong, so he had to shut up first.
Ji Mo usually doesn't interfere with the conversation between children, after he helped Xiao You re-bandage his wounds, he led everyone to the fire, Ao Bai had already lit the fire, and the big horse golden knife was sitting upright, and he was seriously stewing fresh fish soup.
"Come here, Xiao You, are your legs okay?" Ji Mo greeted.
The young eagle can't control its instincts, and always subconsciously observes Ao Bai, which is the keen intuition of the offspring of birds of prey, and it is the instinctive reaction when encountering opponents stronger than themselves.
- What's even worse is that Xiao You has something in his heart at this time, and the matter is not small, so he has no confidence and courage to face Ao Bai.
"Okay." Xiao You walked over slowly, deliberately standing on Ji Mo's side, away from Ao Bai.
"I was supposed to come up to see you last night, but we moved yesterday and were too busy and tired, so we didn't come up." Ji Mo explained apologetically, he always felt uncomfortable not explaining.
Xiao You shook his head, "I am already very grateful that you are willing to come up and see me, and you don't need to take care of me in the first place." These words sounded sensible and mature on the surface, but secretly they revealed a sense of sadness and bitterness.
Ji Mo felt even more guilty when he heard it, "Don't say that, it's just a good deal, it's nothing." Besides, aren't we partners? You live on the island, at least you're a guest of our family, so you don't have to be too polite. ”
The four words "partner" stabbed Xiao You awake fiercely, and he couldn't help but look up at the mountain behind him: in the early morning, the top of the mountain was shrouded in a milky white veil, ethereal like a mysterious fairyland.
"What are you looking at?" Ji Mo asked casually, thought about it and comforted: "Don't worry, there are no big beasts on this island, the biggest one is the purring beast, but they don't dare to go down the mountain." ”
Xiaolong was excited when he heard the [Purr Beast], and he said excitedly: "Huh, Purr Beast, the barbecue is delicious, uncle go catch it, and my brother will give me the barbecue to eat!" ”
"Really? You still catch the snoring beast and roast it? Xiao You asked curiously, he has been on the island for so long, and he has always eaten all kinds of fish and shrimp, and the fruit is only coconut, plus some that Xiao You picked in the jungle.
The four of them gathered by the fire pond to eat and chat, Xiao You's nervous mood slowly relaxed, and he quietly ate the grilled fish, but he didn't dare to look at Ao Bai's eyes.
Xiao You plucked up his courage several times, but he couldn't say the incident after opening his mouth several times, he was anxious and annoyed, and he couldn't wait to raise his wings and fan himself a few times.
Why can't you open your mouth? Strange!
"You have a good rest these days, don't move, and heal your injuries first." Ji Mo advised, "Xiao You, take your time, don't worry, it's easy to make mistakes in a hurry." Everything is important to persevere, not to work hard at one moment. ”
The young eagle nodded in agreement, and the guilt in his heart was even heavier, if it weren't for the consequences, he could have said it generously.
Fortunately, Xiao You is just a child, his temperament is not bad, and he has also received the favor of Ji Mo's family, and from the bottom of his heart, he is unwilling to do ungrateful things and embarrass the Raptor family.
In a pleasant and friendly atmosphere of dinner under the morning sun, Xiao You gritted his teeth and finally squeezed out a question from between his teeth:
"Have you ever been up the mountain?"
Ao Bai's action of grilling shrimp paused for a moment, and immediately moved again, although he didn't say anything, he was already relieved in his heart.
Hmm, if Xiao You really chooses [Pull Out], although we won't say anything, I'm afraid we will have to reevaluate the cooperation with him.
"You said the mountain behind you?" Ji Mo was busy peeling shrimp and feeding it to Xiaolong, he took the time to raise his head, nod the mountain behind him with his chin, and asked with a smile.
Xiao You tensed and nodded solemnly.
"Of course I've been there." Ji Mo nodded happily, because he didn't know what happened yesterday, so he didn't have any guilt in his heart, and replied calmly: "Ao Bai and I went up a few times when we first came to Sicily, do you want to go up and play?" Be careful, the mountain is steep - ahahaha, sorry, I forgot, you have wings, you can fly up the mountain! Ji Mo himself made himself laugh.
Seeing that his father was smiling so happily, Xiaolong immediately begged, "Dad, do you want to go up the mountain to play?" I want to go too, why don't you take me? ”
"You weren't born yet, and there were only me and your father in Sicily." Ao Bai explained, recalling the past, he also showed a nostalgic smile.
Xiaolong was very puzzled, "Not born? Without me? ”
Ji Mole stretched out his hand and flicked the door of Xiaolong's head, and said, "Yes, you were not born at that time, just like your uncle's younger brother now." ”
Xiaolong was even more puzzled, he couldn't understand it for the time being, so he simply threw himself into Ji Mo's arms, rolling and pleading: "Dad, I also want to go up the mountain to play, you all go, if you don't take me, I will go too!" Daddy woo~"
The family of three laughed warmly, and Xiao You next to him didn't care about envy and sadness, and was scared half to death first:
Finished! It turns out that they actually went up the mountain?! Do they know that there is a poisonous dragon fruit on the waterhole in the middle of the mountain? No, they shouldn't know, after all, the poisonous dragon fruit grows in such a secret place......
Xiao You's pupils dilated instantly, his breathing was short, and he couldn't be infected by the mermaid's happy laughter at all, he was extremely nervous, gritted his teeth and was ruthless, his voice trembled slightly and uncontrollably, and asked weakly;
"Ahem, then, what did you see when you went up the mountain?"
Ji Mo heard Xiao You's voice a little wrong, he quickly stopped playing with the child first, and thought that it was the lonely eagle who felt uncomfortable when he saw it, in fact, he was already very careful about his speech and demeanor, but there was no way, the child followed, there was always a time when he was inadvertent.
"Oh, this mountain, huh...... Nothing else, except that the woods are particularly lush and dense, and it is very depressing to walk in the woods. However, there are no poisonous insects and poisonous snakes, and they are quite safe, only purr beasts and small animals, and the most are all kinds of seabirds. Ji Mo simply gave a detailed introduction, and reminded at the end: "Xiao You, you can't fly now, right?" Don't go up the hill to avoid accidents. ”
Alas, you reminded too late, I had already gone up yesterday.
The young eagle looked at Ji Mo helplessly and sighed.
Ao Bai waited quietly for everything that might happen, and his posture was leisurely.
"What? Would you love to go up and play? Ji Mo asked Xiao You funny, saying that children are children, and they are always naughty, and there is no one who doesn't want to play.
Xiaolong quickly took over the conversation, nodded violently, and said, "Yes, Dad, he wants to go up the mountain to play, I want to too, and Gege, we all want to!" ”
"Yi'er." Ao Bai only shouted and glanced at it, and then successfully made Xiaolong pick up his tail, close his mouth, and look at Ji Mo anxiously.
After the first few sentences were laid out, Xiao You also let go, and simply said:
"Actually, when I practiced flying yesterday, I flew up along the stream at the foot of the mountain, and I saw a lot of purr beasts as you mentioned."
This time it was Ji Mo's turn to be surprised, "Really?" ”
"Hmm. The reason why I fell and injured myself was because I was in too much of a hurry to go down the mountain and was careless when it was dark. The more Xiao You spoke, the more fluent he became, and he had a bit of a broken jar.
Ao Bai slowly roasted the fish, looking quite happy.
"Hey, that's not safe, it's better to be careful next time." Ji Mo reminded disapprovingly, he had always thought that the dragon fruit vine was dead, so he didn't think about it at all.
Xiao You raised his head bravely, first glanced at Ao Bai, and then looked at Ji Mo, and said, "I kept flying up yesterday and accidentally flew to a waterhole...... Then, I found a dragon fruit vine near there, which belongs to yours, and I looked at it, and I didn't touch it! I didn't even touch it! ”
It was precisely because of the thought of [pulling out and destroying it] in his heart that Xiao You subconsciously emphasized that he [didn't move it] with an accent.
“!!!” Ji Mo's smile froze, as if he had been struck by lightning, completely stunned.
Ao Bai reached out and pressed his partner's shoulder, patted it gently, and he finally spoke, smiling and saying:
"So you can fly to the mountainside waterhole? That's good. Ji Mo and I know about that dragon fruit vine, I've been busy lately, and I don't have time to go up the mountain, did you see its results yesterday? ”
- So they knew? Fortunately, I didn't touch it, it's really blessed by the beast god......
Xiao You was completely relaxed, and he replied briskly: "It's already fruitful, you can go up and see it now." ”
Ji Mo was not stupid, he came back to his senses and pondered for a while, and immediately turned his head to look at Ao Bai, his eyes were suspicious and sharp.
"I haven't had time to go up the mountain recently, and the dragon fruit hasn't ripened yet, so let's put it there first. This is the secret of the Sicilian Sea, Xiao You, I hope you don't make a noise. Ao Bai's smile finally reached the bottom of his eyes, and when he spoke to Xiao You, his voice became more gentle.
- The Eagle was very thrilling this time, and was almost abandoned by the Dragon King of the Sicilian Sea.
"Understood, I'll act like I didn't see anything!" Xiao You agreed unusually simply, "Speaking of which, I didn't want to know, but I just happened to find out." ”
Xiaolong found that he couldn't understand the conversation again, and he tried to keep his eyes open, looking at this and that, grinding his paws blankly, and he looked cute.
The more Ji Mo thought about it, the more wrong it became, he glanced at his partner again and again, and only looked at Ao Bai and whispered as if begging for mercy: "Go back and explain to you, okay?" ”
"Okay, I'll wait." Ji Mo smiled, gritted his teeth and spoke softly.
Xiao You's heart disease was completely cured, and he began to worry about other things, such as asking tentatively: "Since you already know that there is dragon fruit on the mountain, then why do you want to cooperate with our tribe?" ”
When Ao Bai just wanted to answer, a dragon appeared quickly on the seaside, swimming quickly in the wind and waves, it was Rong Tuo.
"Rong Tuo, what's wrong?" Ji Mo stood up and asked loudly.
Rong Tuo's voice was very anxious, urging: "Come back quickly, the eldest prince sent a guard dragon over there, saying that something happened to the holy lake!" 166 Reading Network
