On Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets are full of festive atmosphere, and at a glance, you will be greeted by festive red. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Today's villa, decorated by Shui Ling and others, has a very New Year's atmosphere, and it is also very warm, everyone is there, even the fire leopard and Xiao greedy wolf are rare not to go out to wave, everyone is talking and laughing, so lively.
Shui Ling and July are busy in the kitchen, preparing to cook a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal for the big guys.
Long Jue looked at the brothers in the villa, and suddenly felt in his heart, a year ago, everyone was still living their own lives, but now they came from all over the world and gathered together.
He was very fortunate to have these brothers by his side and fight side by side with him, Long Jue sighed in his heart, maybe this is the magic of fate.
At this time, Shui Ling walked out of the kitchen with an apron and came to Long Jie's side.
"Long Shao, you can go in and take a look at July." Shui Ling glanced at the dragon and said.
"Huh? Oh, I'll go. Long Jue was stunned for a moment at Shui Ling's sudden words, and then immediately reacted, nodded, and turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
Long Jue came to the kitchen and saw July standing on the edge of the sink washing vegetables, but his shoulders trembled slightly, and he was sobbing softly.
Seeing this scene, Long Jue sighed in his heart, of course he knew the reason why July was crying, and after some hesitation, Long Jue stepped forward and gently hugged July's body.
"Ahh July was startled by the sudden hug, but in an instant, she knew that the person who came was Long Du, so she didn't resist.
"Missed your grandfather?" Long Jue said softly to July.
"Yes!" July touched her tears, then nodded.
"Don't be sad, we are all your family, it's not good to cry your nose for the New Year today." Long Du comforted.
July stopped sobbing when he heard Long Due's words, and said to Long Due: "Okay, I know brother, I won't cry anymore." ā
At dinner time, Shui Ling and July showed their cooking skills, and one plate after another of exquisite food was served to the table, and everyone talked and laughed, and enjoyed themselves.
Long Jue raised his cup and stood up, and said to the crowd gathered around the table: "Brothers and sisters! This is our first Chinese New Year together! Let's raise a glass! Happy New Year! ā
"Happy New Year!" "Hahaha!"
"Most of us are orphans, but we don't feel lonely because everyone is there! It is fate that brings us together from all directions, we fight side by side, progress and grow together, you are all good brothers of my dragon decision, let us toast to fate! ā
"Cheers!" "!"
On this night, everyone drank a lot of wine, and in the laughter, the brothers' feelings were one step closer.
After seven days, the whole city gradually began to bustle again, and after a short rest, people resumed their busy lives again.
During these seven days, everyone was in a relatively relaxed state, even Long Jue had a rare relaxation, and there was very little cultivation in the past few days.
On this day, Long Jue called Mao Zhan to his study.
"Long Shao, are you looking for me?" Mao Zhan looked at Long Jue, who was sitting in the study, and asked.
"Well, I'm going to explore that place tomorrow, who do you think would be better to take with you?" Long Jue nodded and took over the words.
"Well, let's take July with you, after all, it's just to test it first, and there's no need to make a big fuss, and the other brothers, no matter who you bring, I'm afraid other people will have some ideas." Mao Zhan pondered for a while, and then said.
"Okay, then you and I still have July, three of us, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning." Long Jue glanced at Mao Zhan appreciatively, and then confirmed the matter.
Early the next morning, Long Jue took Mao Zhan and July to Hangzhou, and after a two-hour drive, he finally arrived at the place pointed by the Lei family scroll.
"Long Shao, there are formation fluctuations here!" The three of them stood in an open field, surrounded by mountains.
"I'll try!" The dragon sat cross-legged and sensed it carefully.
Soon after, I saw that the open space where the three of them were sitting began to gust winds, and if the weaker July was not pulled by Mao Zhan, he would definitely be directly blown away by the wind.
Long Jue was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, as steady as Mount Tai, unaffected by the wind.
Finally, the wind dissipated, the picture began to change, the space distorted for a while, and a lonely door appeared in front of the three of them.
There are two big words written on the gate: Thunder Realm!
"Be careful, go inside!"
Long Du nodded at Mao Zhan and Qiyue, and then cautiously walked towards the gate.
Approaching the gate, I saw that it was dark inside the gate, but in the darkness, a trace of thunder flashed from time to time, flickering bright and dark.
Such a strange situation, it was the first time that Long Jue and the others had seen it, and their expressions were solemn.
Long Jue tentatively stretched out his hand towards the gate, but was bounced back by a violent force, which shocked him.
"What's going on? Can't get in? Mao Zhan also gave it a try, and the result was the same as Long Duel, with a shocked face.
July was standing behind the two of them, and in her opinion, where even Long Jue and Mao Zhan couldn't get in, it was even more impossible for her to enter.
"July, you come and try." Long Du said to July behind him.
"Ahh I? July looked at Long Du in surprise and asked uncertainly.
"Well, try it, don't be afraid." Long Du gave July an encouraging look.
Although July was afraid, after being encouraged by Long Du, he summoned up his confidence and walked towards the gate tentatively.
"Huh." July walked in without hindrance and disappeared into the Thunder Gate.
"Sure enough!" Long Jue and Mao Zhan both showed expressions when they saw this scene.
After half a ring, July walked out of the gate again, "Brother! The power of thunder and lightning inside is so strong, there are thunder and lightning everywhere, and there are several thunder pools! ā
"Then you must get twice the result with half the effort when you cultivate inside! In July, you go in and explore and see if you can get some benefits, and we'll be waiting for you outside! Long Jue's face was overjoyed when he heard what July said, and then he said to July.
"Brother, I'm a little scared alone!" July pursed his mouth and said aggrievedly.
"Don't be afraid of July, my brother is waiting for you outside, you should be fine if you are careful. Remember, in a day at most, you will come out to report peace. Also, you bring this with you! ā
Long Jue took out the crystal ball that Lei Dongshan used to trigger the Thunderbird at that time, and handed it to July.
After July sighed, he turned around and walked into the Thunder Realm again.
"Long Shao, it seems that we are right, only thunder and lightning cultivators can enter this thunder realm." Mao Zhan smiled at Long Du and said.
"Well, I guess that July will get a big benefit this time!" Long Jue said with a confident smile.
"Oh? How so? Mao Zhan suddenly became interested and asked Long Duel.
"Assuming that this Thunder Realm was only owned by the Lei family before, it means that the most important resources in the Thunder Realm must have not been developed!" Long Jue said with a mysterious smile.
"Why is Long Shao so sure?" Mao Zhan was even more puzzled.
"Because the Lei family can't really be regarded as a thunderbolt cultivator, they are just practicing thunder and lightning exercises, but July is a real thunderbolt ability, born with thunder and lightning, and will be favored by thunder and lightning." Long Jue explained.
"I see! That's true! This thunder realm is so extraordinary, it is impossible for the creator to let a half-thunder and lightning cultivator like the Lei family take away the most important resources! Mao Zhan suddenly realized and gave a thumbs up to Long Duel.
"Well, I don't know who created this thunder realm, such a big stroke!" Long Jue sighed.
After some discussion, Long Jue and Mao Zhan didn't say anything more, and they both began to cultivate cross-legged.
A whole day passed, and there was no news from July.
Long Jie's face became a little anxious, the time agreed with July had arrived, but he didn't see July.
Mao Zhan's face is not very good-looking, after all, he also loves July's little sister very much in his heart, and it is also his proposal to bring July here, if something really happens to July, his heart will be sad.
"Brother!" At this moment, July walked out of the gate of the Thunder Realm with an excited face.
"Whew! It's good that you're okay, my brother is starting to worry about you. Long Jue exhaled a long breath and said to July, and Mao Zhan's hanging heart behind him was also relaxed.
"Brother, I've been looking inside for most of the day, and the crystal ball suddenly reacted when I was about to give up, and then I found this!" July held a token-like thing in his hand and shook it at the dragon.
"What is this?!" Long Jue and Mao Zhan were both interested, and took this token-shaped thing and studied it.
There is a lightning-like sign on the token, which is slightly heavy in the hand, and the texture is extraordinary in the hand, and I don't know what material it is made of.
"Brother Mao, do you recognize me?" Long Du handed the token to Mao Zhan.
"I don't know what it is, but I'm sure it's an extraordinary material, an unknown metal!" Mao Zhan's expression was solemn, as a master caster, he had a very comprehensive understanding of this aspect, and the materials that he didn't even know must not be ordinary goods.
"Unknown? So what's the use of this thing? Long Jue's expression moved, and he asked with some surprise.
"I don't know, but what is certain is that this thing must be a treasure. Hehe, since it's a baby, let's try it with July dripping blood to recognize the Lord, isn't it all written in the books? Mao Zhan was also uncertain, so he could only make a joke.
"Well, you can try this, that's how my Demon Sword recognized the Lord at the beginning!" Long Jue touched his chin and said.
"Huh? I'm just kidding, can I really do this? Mao Zhan was really surprised.
"July, try, the first drop of blood is on it." Long Jue handed the token back to July and said to her.
General July glanced at Long Du suspiciously, then bit his fingertip, and a drop of blood fell on top of the token.
