Chapter 5: Mystic Flame

Tom stared at his imaginary foe and shouted, "Surrender, scoundrel!" Look at the sword, you don't want to run away! ”

Tom took the plucking stick and stabbed a bag of hay. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "You know how good I am." He said to the hay, "One day, I will definitely become the strongest warrior in the entire kingdom of Afanxia, even more powerful than my father, the lightning knight Taylorton." ”

Every time Tom thinks of his dad, he feels a pang of heartache. Tom's mother died when he was very young, and his father gave him over to his aunt and uncle to raise him, and they never told Tom why, nor did they mention his father.

Tom shoved the plucking stick back into his bag, and he vowed, "One day, I must know the truth of the matter." ”

Tom walked towards the village, ready to go home. Suddenly, he smelled a choking smell that made his throat ache.

It smells of smoke!

Tom stopped and looked around, and there was a slight crackling sound from the trees on his left, and a puff of hot air rushed in front of him.

There was a fire!

Tom ran through the woods and rushed out into the field. The wheat that was originally golden was burned until only a little blackened stalk remained, and a puff of smoke enveloped the air. Tom stared blankly at the scene in front of him, shocked. How could this happen?

Tom lifted his head and blinked, and he seemed to see a black shadow flying towards the distant hills, but soon there was nothing in the sky.

"Who is it?" An angry voice rang into Tom's ear.

In the midst of the smoke, Tom saw a figure angrily walking along the edge of the field.

"Are you from the woods?" The man asked, "Do you see who did this good thing?" ”

Tom shook his head, "I didn't see anyone!" ”

"It's the devil at work." The farmer's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, "Hurry up and go to your uncle and tell him what happened, our village of Eleina is cursed, and everyone may be doomed!" ("Cut, really superstitious" Chenxing)

Tom turned and ran to find his uncle, stumbling over the charred roots.

Tom panted and rushed to the village square, which was already full of villagers. Tom thought it was strange, what was everyone doing here? Today is not the day to catch the market, how can there be so many people? My uncle was standing on a bench next to the square, and the villagers were noisy and waving angrily at my uncle.

"Now it's a fire in the field, what's next?" A man roared.

"It's getting worse!" Another villager yelled.

"The Holy Beast has become a monster!"

Tom knew that there were seven sacred beasts protecting the kingdom of Afanxia, one of which looked like a fire-breathing dragon, but no one knew if they really existed.

"Do you see the river?" One woman asked, "The river is getting lower and lower, and if we continue like this, we will soon run out of water to drink." ”

"We are cursed." An old man wailed.

"I don't believe in such a curse," said Tom's uncle, firmly, "but our village is in need of help, and we must send to the king and ask him to help us." ”

Tom took a step forward and said, "I would like to go to the palace to meet the king." ”

The villagers began to laugh, "Send a child? It's a laughing death! ”

"If we send a child, the king will laugh at us."

Tom's uncle said to him gently, "Tom, you're too young. I'm the village chief, so I'm supposed to go. ”

A little boy covered in black soot suddenly burst out of the crowd, gasping and shouting, "Come and help!" The barn is on fire! ”

"Hurry up and get the bucket and go to the river!" Tom's uncle shouted to the villagers, "Whoever has no buckets, hurry up and bring the shovel to the barn, and if we can't put out the fire, put out the fire." Move fast! ”

The villagers scattered in a hurry and hurried to carry out the village chief's order. Tom looked at his uncle: "Uncle Henry, the village needs you to stay and lead everyone, let me go to His Majesty the King instead of you." ”

Uncle turned his head to look at him with a serious expression on his face: "I think sooner or later, I will let you go out and see the world." Uncle stared into the distance, "Maybe it's fate......" He shook his head, then turned to look at Tom again: "The task of going to see the king is left to you, there is no time to delay, you will leave early tomorrow morning!" ”
