(16) Fire and water
The kind of chill that froze to his heart was familiar to him, coming from the dragon's spine behind him, like a piece of thousand-year-old ice embedded in his body, sucking away all the heat in his body bit by bit.
Ever since the scales were destroyed, he had been like this, especially when he was doing things with others, or when his mind was fluctuating, the flow of spiritual power was extremely fast, and whenever he did, he would feel very cold.
After all, the chastity scales that Ah Mo transplanted for himself at the end are almost at the same time. Miao Yuan said that the spirituality of ordinary scales is not enough, and no matter how much they are enhanced by spells, they will be in charge for three months at most. It's been more than two months now, and I'm using it so carelessly, it's almost time to come to an end.
Thinking of this, he reached behind his back and touched it. Sure enough, the scales could no longer hold on, and they stuck crookedly to the side. The wound was bare again, and the tentacles were sticky with blood.
He smiled wryly, and simply pulled the waste scales off. He leaned his back against the wall, gasping feebly, before opening his eyes again after a moment.
No, there's something strange about that scale.
Why is it black and mushy, as if it has been baked by something?
He was afraid that he would be dazzled, so he took a closer look. Really, on the other side of his body, his turquoise scales had turned dark black!
How so?
His drowsy head was suddenly sobered up. According to the color, not every part of the body is exactly the same, but it is basically the same hue. For example, if he is a green dragon, then the scales are mainly blue-green, the darker places are dark green, and the lighter places are emerald green and lake green.
Even if the scales were dead, they would only be gray and white, but they would never have the dark-focused color they have now.
Could it be because of poisoning?
It's also unlikely, the bare love has been on him for so long, if it weren't for Miao Yuan to understand the cause and effect of this matter, even the senior brother's brilliant medical skills would not be able to see it, and he would never leave such obvious traces again. What's more, there was no such situation in the first two transplants.
At this moment, my chest suddenly became hot, like a ball of samadhi fire rushing into my heart. He was caught off guard, his whole body shrank in pain, let out a low *, and clenched his fists.
Fortunately, Xuanhua's side was still some distance away from their room, and Ah Mo didn't hear his noise here. But then the overwhelming pain came at him without saying hello, so that he didn't have time to think, and a reckless fire suddenly ignited in his body out of nowhere, and it was mercilessly scorched everywhere, like a cannon burning.
He only felt that the blood flowing in every vein was already boiling, and wherever the blood jumped, it was burning and burning, and the skin was burning.
Jinghua leaned against the corner, gritting his teeth, not daring to make a sound, he didn't even know what he was holding in his hand. He wondered if his head was about to dull, if he was hallucinating again.
Because as long as he closed his eyes, he felt that he was really in a sea of fire, and the houses around him were burning, and there were flames everywhere. He almost wanted to shout, he couldn't say it was good, it was on fire, and told Ah Mo to run away.
But no, when you open your eyes, the house is still a house, and the bed is still a bed.
The body is still clean, and there are no traces of fireworks.
What the hell is going on? Just now, because of the flow of spiritual power, it was as cold as if it was in an ice cave, and for a while it looked like its whole body was about to be consumed by flames?
What went wrong?
Fortunately, the fierce fire in the body did not burn all the time. Just when he felt that he was about to lose consciousness, the sharp pain finally subsided a little, and although it was not completely extinguished, it was already within the range of his tolerance.
He leaned back with all his strength, gasping silently. The seizure just now consumed too much energy, and he had to concentrate on thinking about it and rationalizing his thoughts.
Although this body is broken, it can't be ignored, after all, there is still foam. Even if you can't escape that ending, it's good to be a little later.
He rejoiced in his suffering, comforting himself.
There was a reason for the cold, he knew it, and he got used to it.
But what about this intense burning? plus the high and low fever that has been going on for a month, and the inexplicably scorched scales?
Isn't there some connection between that?
He is the Yinlong of the five elements of water, and in addition to the toxicity of red guts in his urine, he is only cold all year round, and rarely feels hot.
Momo always thinks that her hands are cold, but in fact, she doesn't know that cold is normal for herself, but there is a problem when it is hot.
Just like his own four lore, he was originally going to correspond to the four celestial phenomena of "wind, fire, thunder, and lightning", but because he couldn't cultivate the attributes of fire, he changed it to "wind, thunder, lightning, and frost".
So, how could a person like him have such a deadly fire buried in his body, and when did it start?
When will it start...... He put his hand on his swollen forehead, trying to concentrate and begin to remember.
Didn't you just drop the scales?
Later, there was no one at the pond.
What about when I was cruising with Ah Mo in the human world? At that time, I had already started to practice the mental method on "Autumn Wind Breaking", was it because of the backlash of forbidden arts? It seems to be ...... Well, not quite like that.
Then later, it will be Devil's Island, and if there is any problem, with Miaoyuan's medical skills, it should be able to see it at that time.
So, is it after the Great War?
He knew that the damage to his body was so great that it was completely irreversible, but because he had come with the determination to die, there was nothing to be sorry for. Fighting, that's what it is, every time he goes to the battlefield, he never thinks about coming back alive.
It really was one of the hardest battles of my life. Before he took command, Miao Yuan had already given him many warnings, and the day after he had the operation, he forced himself back to the Nine Heavens, and he didn't stop for a moment, and then traveled all the way.
The potential of people is really endless, Miao Yuan had already sentenced him heavily, but he escaped death again and again. Not only did he exhaust himself day and night, but he also used his spiritual power several times to use his killer skills, and even finally risked his life to fight with Jiang Chiyu, and almost died together......
Wait a minute...... By the way, it seems to be right here!
He exhausted the spiritual power of his whole body, and he was going to die with Jiang Chiyu, but then he didn't die, because Jiang Yi gave him her own cultivation before she died!
Yes, Jiang Yi gave him the cultivation of cultivation!
Jiang Yi is a fiery flame dragon, her cultivation is far more reckless than Lao Jun's samadhi true fire, and now it is resting in his most fire-fearing body, it is like throwing a fireball into an ice bowl, how can he afford it?
Hehehe, he couldn't help but laugh bitterly, it turned out that this was the case!
I've been in a daze lately, and I've forgotten such an important section. And the eldest brother and Momo, seeing that they were living after the catastrophe, were only concerned about how he could get better, but they didn't think about it.
It's no wonder that for more than a month, my body, which has been as cold as snow for thousands of years, has always had a low-grade fever, because there has always been that fiery spiritual power that is tormenting day and night.
If you think about it carefully, it is not the first time that the burning pain like this just now is not the first time, if you have a high fever for a few days, you will have an attack, but it is extremely short-lived. There were many uncomfortable places on his body, and he didn't pay special attention to them.
The last time he remembered was on Chinese New Year's Eve, he felt something wrong, but then because he had an awkward relationship with Momo, he didn't care to think about it carefully.
It seems that as long as the spiritual power of this fire line exists in his body, there will be this risk from time to time. After running around outside for a day today, I used my spiritual power again, and then I had a hard seizure.
It's okay to be in pain, and patience can always pass, but if you just let it burn down and burn the dragon tendons and bones, then there is really no way to save it.
Thinking of this, he felt funny again, a person like himself was still worried about the hopeless.
Hehe, this queen mother, it's really making people cry and laugh, it's rare to have a good heart, but she still did a bad thing. Although it is said that helping him pick up a life, it is tantamount to drinking a dove to stop drinking.
However, it can't be said badly.
If it weren't for Jiang Yi, then he would have died with Jiang Chiyu more than a month ago. Now Momo, who must be so sad that she washes her face with tears every day, how can she still practice her whipping method so energetically, and in the warm hut opposite, she is fragrant with dinner?
With her, no matter how hard it is, it's good.
She was his warmth and hope, and the antidote to all his pain.
Even if it's just to see her for one more day and look at her more, it's worth his desperate end.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah Mo realized that what Jinghua said early in the morning was really early.
He called her three times, and she said "um" and then there was no sound and no follow-up.
Jinghua had no choice but to pull her up from the bed. She wore clothes with her eyes closed all the way, and then had breakfast with her eyes closed.
Seeing her staring in a daze all the way, he couldn't help but feel distressed.
In fact, she has always been like this, but after following herself, she became troubled by gains and losses, and her heart became heavy.
It's really embarrassing for her.
Especially the days before I was scolded by my eldest brother.
Now that I think about it, I was so decadent at that time! It seems that I have never been so unpleasant in my life. It doesn't matter if she stinks a face every day, she still loses her temper at every turn, I don't know how many grievances she has been given and how much nature she has suppressed.
At this point, it can also be seen that she is sensible.
She put away all the little princess tempers and became diligent and careful. I used to be troublesome and impatient to do it, but I did everything hard. She even slept with a heart every day, and when he turned over slightly, she would wake up immediately.
At that time, I was not like myself.
And at that time, she was even more unlike her.
