Chapter 42: The Son's Sorrow

When the three of us sat in a circle and practiced with each other's palms, the Holy Son was still eating the deer in small bites, and he had the momentum of not giving up until he ate it all.

In this subspace where there is no change in the light of day, our concept of time has become dull, and we feel sleepy after practicing the exercises, and we fall to sleep.

"Come, my sister will wash you. This dress is dirty and can't be worn. ”

Erya's voice came, and I sat up. Looking at the sound, Erya wanted to take off the thin clothes full of blood stains for the Holy Son, and had already unbuttoned his clothes, but the Holy Son grabbed the placket and couldn't let go. Er Ya looked at the Holy Son with some tears and laughter, not knowing what to do.

It's really amazing, the little saint son ate her face and hands covered with blood and oil, but her hair and small belly pocket were not stained at all. Er Ya finally compromised and pulled the little saint son who insisted on wearing a thin coat and walked towards the lake, and the colorful fog gave way to the nearest road to the lake as if it had a spirit.

Hey, the little son has grown taller, and the thin clothes are just enough to cover her knees.

With a thought, I turned my head to look at the location of the deer yesterday. My dear mother, there is only a pile of white bones that are as clean as the surroundings, and this meal is not in vain, and the little girl has grown so much taller at once.

While waiting for Erya and the Holy Son to take a bath, I looked around in a very bored manner, although the colorful fog was still thick, it remained at a low height, which did not prevent me from seeing the countless white bones that came out of the dense fog outside this bamboo forest. The bones were of various sizes, the large ones were like mountains rising from the layers of colorful mist and piercing into the sky, and the small ones were about the size of the deer next to me. These white bones of different shapes are densely piled together, and from a distance, it looks like a white stone forest.

Are dragons at least that big?

But when I looked closely at the bones around me, I realized something was wrong. The ones that were obviously slender didn't look like dragon bones, but phoenix bones? When I looked closely, I saw that many of them had obvious scratches and even fractures.

"Boss, the marks on these phoenix bones seem to be left by dragon claws, and the ones on the dragon bones are just the opposite. ”

"Yes, it seems that there was a big battle between the dragon and phoenix clans, and both sides were defeated, and I am afraid that it was this battle that eventually led to the demise of the two clans. ”

"Hmph! The Holy Son of my family is still there, and there is still hope for the revival of my dragon clan. Those plague chickens can only turn into dust in this world. ”

"Hehe, Black Dragon King, you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue, the mother of the Holy Son is the Holy Daughter of my Feng Clan. The Holy Son is also the Holy Daughter of my Feng clan. ”

A voice like a silver bell sounded, so soft and beautiful, but the words were very harsh. But she also made me suddenly, no wonder I couldn't see what the true body of the Holy Son was, it turned out to be the product of the fusion of dragon and phoenix blood, so the mutation of the Holy Son's body aura was closer to the category of human beings.

"Blood Phoenix King, I didn't tear off your head back then to have a chance for you to chew the root of your tongue. If it weren't for the sake of you quietly guarding our Holy Son all these years, I would have let you lose your soul a long time ago. ”

"Ouch, the guy who was pecked out of his eyeballs by his aunt and grandmother back then still dared to shout, for the sake of not harassing the Holy Son for so many years, Aunt Ben would have turned you into ashes a long time ago. ”

It seems that something is not right, Hongtong expressed it directly on my behalf.

"Two great immortals, you haven't spoken to the Holy Son for so many years, right?"

The air froze suddenly, and the two of them, who were still menacing just now, suddenly quieted down.

You two bastards!

It took a long time for the Black Dragon King to say, "In order to allow the Holy Son to break through the shell smoothly, I and the Blood Phoenix exhausted our remaining strength and fell into a deep sleep, and only recently did we wake up. ”

"So, has that little girl been living alone until today?"

"Yes. Poor saint. ”

The Blood Phoenix King's voice was a little choked, and I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard it, and I didn't hesitate to ask the same question again.

"I know, I will help the Son fulfill her sorrow, please tell me what her sorrow is. ”

"Speak to the Holy Maiden and she will tell you. ”

After the sound of the Blood Phoenix King's teasing disappeared, the two kings who had already become ghosts fell silent again. I still don't know what the Son's wish is, but how many years does it take to teach a child who can't speak?

I let you get the dragon bone curse, and you even have to pack up and throw it to me like teaching to speak?

While I was feeling depressed, Erya had already returned with the Son, who had been washed and dressed properly.

Hong Tong greeted him with kindness, took the wet clothes handed by Erya, and dried them with his fire magic. When Hong Tong was drying his clothes, the Holy Son kept looking at Hong Tong curiously with a pair of big round eyes. Hong Tong squeezed his eyebrows at Erya squeezing, and Erya also smiled at him. Looking at the pair showing affection, a shadow unconsciously appeared in my mind.

Suddenly, the Son seemed to remember something, and turned and went into her little shack. When she came out again, she had already taken a small silver short sword, the full length of the short sword was no more than a foot, the sword body was slender and only two centimeters wide, the whole body was shining with silver, the hilt part of the sword was about three inches long, and the tail of the golden dragon and silver phoenix was wrapped around the dragon head and the crested head poked out from both ends of the sword grid.

The Holy Son was holding a small short sword and rampage, and Er Ya and Hong Tong hurriedly flashed to the side. The Son ran to the side of the deer bone with some unsteady steps on her short legs, and began to dig the earth beside the deer bone.

We looked at each other, not knowing what she was going to do. The Holy Son had been digging a pit beside the bones, and after a while, Erya scratched his head and walked over as if he understood something. Erya walked to the Holy Son and squatted down, gathered the energy in her hand, and suddenly the red light skyrocketed, her hand slammed into the ground next to the corpse, and the whole palm of her hand was inserted into the ground, and then she raised her hand obliquely, and a large piece of soil was dug out by her.

I suddenly realized, isn't this the same situation as when the little white rabbit raised by Erya died, and I helped her dig a pit and bury it?

I waved my hand at Hongtong and stopped him from trying to come forward and help dig the pit. Digging a pit is such a thing, I recognize the second in this world, and no one can recognize the first. It's up to me, a professional.

I stepped forward and gently patted the shoulders of the Holy Son and Erya, and they stopped and looked at me. I smiled at them, shook my head, and pulled them both by the arm.

I reached over the deer's bones with both hands and whispered, "Swamp." ”

The ground beneath the deer bones turned into a swamp almost instantly, and the deer bones slowly sank with them.

When the deer bones were completely gone, I said, "Freeze." ”

The swamp disappeared in an instant and turned back to its original hard ground, as if nothing was there in the first place.

The Son patted the hardened ground with her little hand curiously, then walked over to it and stepped on it with her little foot, and then she put her face in her hands and fell into deep thought.

Soon she looked up at me sharply, a smile like a flower blooming on her face, and she took my hand and dragged me out. I had no resistance to her cuteness, and of course I let her drag her along with a smile. Erya and Hong Tong glanced at each other and followed us.

When I came to the corpse of a phoenix, which was about the same size as the previous deer, the Holy Son screamed happily at the corpse with the finger that was not holding me, and showed a look of anticipation to me. I was stunned at first, but immediately understood what she meant.

"swamp", "hardened", in just a few minutes, a corpse returned to the dust. The Son applauded happily, and then she pulled me to another corpse, and this time I began a one-stop service of "swamp" and "hardening" without her being asked.

Seeing that my performance made the Holy Son dance, the second girl's heart for victory suddenly rose, and she pointed to the surrounding jungle-like corpses and said, "All of you, let's bury the corpses too?"

"Okay, Sister Yuxin, we'll help too. I'm not good at soil, I can't use water, I can't be as fast as the boss. But I can dig a pit with gas and fire, and you have the strength to carry the bones into the pit, and then we can bury them together, okay?"

The second girl rushed to the flood and shook his head.

"Today, the boy Hongtong wants to dig and bury the bones of the pit here, disturbing the rest of the seniors, I hope you will forgive me. ”

After Hong Tong bowed to each of the four directions, the magic power in his hand condensed. After Hong Tong looked at the size of a skeleton beside him, he was about to cast a spell, but when he saw the holy woman hurrying towards him with an anxious face, he couldn't help but stop his hand.

The nervous saint ran to Hong Tong and took his hand, looked east and west, and then dragged him in one direction. walked all the way to a large open space, the little saintess let go of Hong Tong's hand at this time, and her cute little face showed a serious expression, and after carefully looking at the ground, she ran to Hong Tong's side and pointed to the ground and nodded repeatedly.

I watched the little saint's actions, and suddenly understood what her sad wish was.

A lonely child, no one hurt her after birth, no one raised her, not even a person to speak, but because of the kindness of nature, she couldn't bear to see the corpses of her people exposed in the wilderness, and made a grand wish to bury all the tribesmen with her weak arms.

I accompany her.

"Yes, no wonder we see the corpses of the relatively large dragon and phoenix, the holy maiden has already buried the smaller dragon and phoenix corpses, right? Xiaotong, the place where you were about to smash the pit just now should be buried with the corpses she buried before. ”

Hong Tong is not a stupid person, and he naturally understands what the saint's sad wish is. Hong Tong quietly looked at the saint and did not speak, but her eyes were already hazy with tears. He wiped away his tears and stretched out his hand to pull the holy woman aside and handed it to Er Ya to take care of. Turning around and walking to the open space that the Holy Maiden pointed out to him, he condensed the magic power of the sky in one hand, and a lead-gray dark cloud gathered in the air, which stood out in the subspace with only a light blue sky.

Half paid, Hong Tong roared violently: "Fire and thunder!"

A fiery red lightning burst down from the dark clouds, a huge explosion sounded, and after the smoke cleared, a large crater 5 meters deep and 10 meters wide appeared in the clearing.

I gave Hongtong a thumbs up, then turned around and walked towards the hill-like skeleton.

It's a lot of work to bury them, and it's up to me to deal with them.

"Let's go, old black ghost, we'll help dig the pit and bury the bones. ”

"Okay. ”

Erya had already lifted a huge vertebra and walked towards the pit that Hong Tong blasted out.

Glancing at the busy crowd, I looked back at the 10-meter-tall skeleton in front of me.

"Swamp. ”

Constantly injecting mana, the skeleton slowly sank, and finally sank completely into the swamp and disappeared without a trace.

I continued to input my mana, and after estimating that the bones were at least two meters above the ground, I calmly uttered, "Harden." ”

Just like that, the skeleton of a giant dragon with a length of more than two hundred meters disappeared from the ground, and I faintly heard a cheer ringing in my ears.

"Thank you"

The silence of the tranquil subspace was broken by a roar, like the cheers of souls who could not be at peace, and the mountains of white bones silently disappeared into the colorful fog, as if homeless children had found a home.

Dust to dust, and finally the lonely souls wandering in subspace have their own resting place.
