Chapter 657: I Respect You
As long as it is soft and good, Tao Ming has patience.
Just now, she just remembered the joke she made after Softly received the Liuyu at that time, saying that one day, Softsoft would be able to gather all the four divine beasts and become the first person in the Divine Realm.
At that time, it was just a joke, after all, none of the people present had anything to do with Xuanwu.
But I didn't expect that the opportunity would come!
Tao Ming stared at the elder with burning eyes, and as long as it said that it could be replaced, it would immediately release the softness.
As for whether Squishy could subdue the coward inside, Tao Ming didn't think about it at all.
Perhaps Tao Ming's gaze was too piercing, and the elder expressed his concerns: "Don't hide it, the Xuanwu clan has long declined, and the junior is only left with this single seedling." ”
Tao Ming was surprised, this is the Xuanwu clan, and it will also decline?
"In the early years, I wasn't particularly worried, thinking that they would always be willing to come out as they grew up. Unfortunately, it backfired, and not only did they stop growing, but they didn't even want to come to the hole. ”
When Tao Ming heard this, she couldn't help but think that this is not a "house family"?
Refuse to grow up, refuse to go out.
It's exactly the same.
"I have been an elder for tens of thousands of years, and I have never seen such a situation, so I have to ask my ancestors for divination. ”
Tao Ming really wants to tell it, your ancestors are dead, what can you ask.
"The ancestor asked me to ask Beiming for help. ”
Tao Ming blinked quickly, thinking that you wanted to ask Beiming yourself, right?
"I have never liked Beiming very much, his temperament is too dull, often I say ten sentences, he can't say a single sentence. Besides, Beiming's affairs are busy, and it is not easy to come to Xuanwu Stream, so I didn't mention it again. ”
Tao Ming thought of Beiming and couldn't help nodding, that guy really rarely spoke, dull and boring.
"Later, Beiming took the initiative to come and begged me to do him a favor, and I asked him to help him take a look. ”
Tao Ming knew what Beiming was asking for, and the elder said just now that he would save his life if necessary.
I don't understand, my relationship with Beiming can only be regarded as a general friendship, and he doesn't need to go to such great lengths, it will inevitably make people misunderstand.
"Beiming went back to check the secrets left by the great emperors of the north in the past dynasties, and there was news that the last single seedling of the Xuanwu clan needed a master. ”
Tao Ming couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that he is lying to you?"
"Hehe, you're too worried. Divine beasts have always chosen their own masters, and it is useless to force them. ”
At first glance, this sentence made a lot of sense, but Tao Ming thought about it carefully, and there was something wrong.
At least before the Flowing Flame hatched, it was already tied to the soft, and there was no choice at all.
Tao Ming asked tentatively, "If someone steals a Xuanwu egg and hatches it, will Xuanwu directly recognize the master?"
The elder's laughter was about to burst Tao Ming's eardrums: "Hahahaha, what kind of place do you think this is, can outsiders come if they want to, and leave if they want." ”
Tao Ming had an embarrassed smile on her face, thinking that Sunan Star sent the stars over and directly stole a Vermilion Bird Egg, the protection of the Vermilion Bird Forest will not be too far worse than the Xuanwu Stream, right?
The elder laughed tiredly, put his head on the edge of the cave, and exclaimed, "You are such an interesting person. ”
Tao Ming can't remember how many people have said this about herself, but her reaction is still the same, thinking that you just haven't seen the world.
Tao Ming sat down cross-legged and took a very respectful and serious attitude: "Elder, I don't mean to be disrespectful, I'm just curious, are the four divine beasts looking down on themselves too much?"
The elder raised his head and said in a displeased tone: "The four great divine beasts are already different, and it is natural that they have a high status. ”
Tao Ming said without fear of death: "But you are all going to be extinct." ”
The elder was furious, and opened his big mouth to bite Tao Ming.
Tao Ming was startled, and just as she was about to hide in the Douzhuan Star, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, and she sat still.
The huge mouth shrouded Tao Ming entirely, but there was no follow-up action.
Tao Ming stayed in the dark mouth, smelling the fishy smell inside, thinking that this guy must never clean his mouth, this smell is really strong.
A huge roar sounded in Tao Ming's ears: "Why don't you run away?"
Tao Ming ninja's nasal discomfort said, "I really want to help you." ”
The big mouth on the top of his head suddenly left, and Tao Ming resisted the desire to breathe heavily, and replaced the air in his lungs little by little.
"You're right, I've also reflected on the question of whether we think too highly of ourselves and cause the decline of the race. ”
Tao Ming replied seriously: "It is not advisable to be complacent, you must open the door and go out in order to achieve better development." ”
The elder pondered for a moment what Tao Ming meant, turned his head to look at the surrounding stone walls, and sighed: "Self-contained, these four words are really wonderful." ”
"Elder, why are you only staying here?"
"This is where basalt eggs are hatched. The so-called elders are the people who help the new generation of Xuanwu to be born and guide them to grow up. ”
Tao Ming couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration in her heart, and she used honorifics to speak: "You are so great." ”
The elder shook his head, "I just like the little ones. I've been here for too long, all kinds of news can only be obtained from the outside in bits and pieces, and with the decline of the Xuanwu clan, fewer and fewer people talk to me, and I don't know more and more about the outside world. ”
A faint smile hung on the corner of Tao Ming's mouth: "It must have been very lively here back then." ”
"It's hilarious, every day new little ones are born, I crawl into the cave, throw them into the water one by one, and put new basalt eggs in it by the way. ”
Tao Ming unconsciously glanced at the entrance of the cave, and really couldn't imagine the size of the elder back then.
"When I first came here, I was nowhere near as big as I am now, and I could climb up and down flexibly. It's hard to turn around now. ”
"Elder, have you ever wondered where you're going to go when you go out?"
The elder had never thought about this question, and he couldn't answer it for a moment.
After a long time, the elder said quietly, "I'd better stay here as the tomb keeper of the Xuanwu clan." ”
Tao Ming blurted out: "What are you afraid of?"
The elder's eyes were a little evasive, it had been here for too long, and it was indeed very yearning for the outside world, but it was more worried and afraid.
The Xuanwu Stream was originally far away from the world, and when Beiming first came, although he had already memorized the topography and landforms, in fact, he couldn't even find the entrance.
Everywhere there are winding waterways, all kinds of strangely shaped rocks, and in the pitch darkness, everything becomes unrecognizable.
Tao Ming sighed: "Forget it, I respect your choice." ”
