Chapter 22: Cub Amethyst, link failed!

[Zhuge Ning]--[Part 1]--[Abandoned Weakling]

The wind was howling and bitterly cold.

In a field of ice and snow, snowflakes fell one after another, covering the earth with layers of snow-white clothes.

Zhuge Ning walked on the ice alone, shivering with his hands and feet. She clasped her hands around herself, rubbing them constantly. The temperature here is so low that even the breath that comes out of Ha becomes clear.

"What's going on here...... Why is it so cold? Oh, my God...... They almost froze me to death. Zhuge Ning only wore a thin dress, although he was a martial arts practitioner and his body was not bad, but he couldn't withstand the ravages of the wind and snow.

"Ah Qiu~" She sneezed, poked her nose with her finger, and kept muttering while looking for a way out: "I don't know what happened to Liu Mengli's sow and Linlin...... Won't it ...... Frozen like me, right? ”

It's so quiet that you can hear even the sound of snowflakes falling. But the quieter it was, the more uneasy Zhuge Ning's heart became.

Sure enough, before she had taken a few steps, explosions rang out in the distance.

Zhuge Ning looked up and saw that on the white snow, three huge icicles suddenly emerged, standing on the ground, majestic and magnificent.

"Looks like ...... It's not like an avalanche. Seeing this exaggerated scene, Zhuge Ning thought in his heart.

Next, a roar came into the ears.

"What happened?" Zhuge Ning ran over curiously.

========

========

Ice broke through the ground, and from the bottom up, the ice became thinner and thinner. Up to the top, it was like a sharp long sword, and it was still flashing with cold light.

Around the ice, there was a white tiger with golden eyes shining brightly. The tiger's snow-white fur blends in with the environment, and there is a white expanse everywhere. If he hadn't been attracted by the murderous aura emanating from the surroundings, Zhuge Ning would never have discovered that there were such dangerous creatures here.

It was opening its bloody jaws, baring its sharp teeth, and growling at a cub lying on the ground uninjured.

The roar sounded again, and it lifted one foot and stomped on the ground.

In an instant, countless cold ice burst out of the ground.

The cub, who was lying on the ground and could not move, was suddenly stabbed into the air and fell hard. He had already suffered a lot of injuries and had not yet recovered, but now the wounds were torn again, and blood continued to flow out, staining the ice and snow under him bright red.

But it didn't choose to run away, not even a little struggle, just curled up in a ball like that, looking at the angry behemoth in front of it aggrievedly, letting the other party attack itself again and again, pitiful and helpless.

In the vast white earth, such a gorgeous eye flush suddenly appeared, which was particularly dazzling.

"Wait a minute...... "It's cruel!" Seeing this scene, Zhuge Ning didn't think about it, and suddenly rushed to the cub, opened his arms, and protected it behind him. She didn't even know what she was doing, she just felt she couldn't just sit idly by.

When she slowly came back to her senses and realized what she was doing, a huge, murderous tiger stood in front of her, staring at her deadly.

"I'll go, it's terrible! How could there be such a strange thing? Zhuge Ning thought in his heart: "Mom, don't rush up if you knew it." ”

Facing the behemoth in front of her, she pretended to be calm, but her heart was empty for a while: "My God.!" Dead, dead...... Death (Cantonese mode) ......"

"Little ghost, you are so bold, you dare to stand in front of me." The white tiger blinked its eyes that shimmered with golden light, opened its huge mouth, and roared at Zhuge Ning.

"My mom! What the hell is this, you can still talk? God bless God bless, Amitabha Buddha ......" Zhuge Ning was even more scared, she had never seen this kind of creature before. However, looking at the little guy covered in blood behind him......

"No matter, I can't leave it behind." Although her legs had already weakened with fright, she still did not flinch, tried to suppress the fear in her heart, and asked in a trembling voice, "That...... You...... Why would you want to hurt it? It's all dying, and it looks so pathetic. ”

"The law of the jungle is the rule of our Nether Tiger clan." Unexpectedly, the white tiger actually answered her words.

Zhuge Ning blurted out suddenly: "What kind of rule is this?" That's weird, right? Because it is weaker, you will put it to death? And what about when it died? Do you want to kill the next weak, until at last there is only one strong man in the world? Although she was terrified, she mustered up the courage to retort.

"A mere human would dare to dictate to our rules? Don't you want to live anymore? The Nether Tiger threatened. It stomped its feet and roared to the sky, and the ice sprang out like a sharp sword.

Zhuge Ning subconsciously stepped back, but his arm was still cut. She clutched her bleeding wound and gritted her teeth as she looked at the behemoth in front of her.

"Because there's something wrong with your rules!" Zhuge Ning showed no weakness: "Why should the weak be abandoned?" It is also your companion, how can you bear it? I don't know if it's the hot pain on her body, or the words of the Nether Tiger, anyway, she was enraged, and the previous fear was swept away, Zhuge Ning was only full of anger now.

She roared in pain, as if her emotions were out of control, and the past kept coming back to her mind. The scenes that I couldn't bear to look at directly, every time I thought of it, Zhuge Ning would be so heartbroken that he couldn't speak. She looked at the cub behind her, the poor little one, whose wounds were all over her body, but her eyes kept looking at the fellow who was going to put him to death. Perhaps, it doesn't know the other party's purpose yet.

The little guy had tears in his eyes, and looked at the Nether Tiger aggrievedly, like a spoiled child. Even if it is hurt, it is not afraid at all.

Zhuge Ning's nose was sour, and he endured it so that he didn't cry. Isn't she the same? That little white figure, stubborn and simple, isn't it the self of more than ten years ago?

The elder brother was disgusted, and the clan turned his back...... I have never been recognized by my family, if I hadn't met Linlin and Mengli, I might have hid in a dark corner and died alone.

Zhuge Ning still remembers what his brother said at the beginning - you see, in addition to crying, you will only drag others down. If you don't know what it means to be powerful, you will only kill everyone around you one by one, just like when you killed our mother. ”

This sentence is like a sharp dagger, piercing into his heart.

It was from that moment that Zhuge Ning vowed to become stronger and no longer let his brother look down on him. Nor can it

Drag others down again. She must ...... You must be strong, protect the people around you, and make your brother feel for himself

Pride also makes the clan re-accept themselves.

Thinking of this, it seemed that something flashed in his mind, and Zhuge Ning seemed to have discovered something.

But when she wanted to catch it, she was interrupted from her train of thought.

"It's nonsense, I don't know whether I'm alive or dead!" The Nether Tiger roared again.

Zhuge Ning had to stop thinking nonsense. When she looked up, she saw countless hailstones falling from the sky, dotted with stars. Where it fell, it kicked up the dust of ice and snow.

She leaned over the cub and used her flesh and blood to protect the fragile life beneath her. Even with a piercing pain in her back, she didn't move half a step. What she is protecting is not a strange creature, but herself, Zhuge Ning more than ten years ago.

The dust dissipated, and Zhuge Ning's figure gradually became clear. I saw that her body was covered with scars, and blood dripped down her arms, staining her clothes red. But the cub underneath him did not suffer the slightest additional injury.

This scene caught the eye of the Nether Tiger, and it asked puzzledly, "What a funny thing, what kind of creature is a human being?" Even if it's death, to protect a strange cub is ridiculous, it's ridiculous. Although he said this, he was a little shocked in his heart.

Zhuge Ning seemed to think of something, she weakly let go of the cub in her arms, stood up, but fell down suddenly due to pain, lying on the cold ground, with a satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth: "It turns out that this is the ......" as if she had unloaded a thousand pounds of burden, and this smile ...... It's a little lighthearted.

"Little ghost, what are you laughing at?"

"I finally ...... Finally figured it out...... One thing. Zhuge Ning wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, struggled to get up, still with a smile on his face, and said confidently: "If I guessed correctly, you should be the family of this cub, right?" ”

The Nether Tiger was silent.

"If that's the case, I guessed right." Zhuge Ning patted his head and said with a smile.

"Little ghost, you have to talk nonsense again, and I will not show mercy next time." Nether Tiger didn't admit it, but it didn't deny it either. Judging from its attitude, it seems that it has been said to be on the wrong side.

"Mercy? It turns out that you didn't make a ruthless attack in the first few attacks! Zhuge Ning found a loophole in her words, and said confidently: "With your strength, if you really want to kill me, it will be effortless, why wait now?" In the same way, isn't it strange that you treat a cub so cruelly without harming it? I'd love to know what you're doing to hide it! The mighty Nether Tiger? ”

The Nether Tiger still didn't say a word, but its momentum weakened in an instant.

"Even if you don't say a word, you can't hide your love for your cubs. I know, you love it. You hurt it like this, just to make it afraid, to let it escape, to let it chase its own world, to make it strong. Because you know that if it continues to be so weak, it will become waste in other people's mouths. You can't protect it, and one day, you'll grow old and leave it, so it has to be strong before it happens, or at least learn to protect itself. ”

Speaking of this, Zhuge Ning remembered his brother Zhuge Qing. Isn't that brother who seems to be extremely strict with himself and has never given himself a good face? Her nose was sore, and her voice became choked: "But it chose you." In order to force it to leave, you will attack again and again, but secretly spare your men. ”

"Little ghost, if you say that, aren't you afraid that I will eat you in one bite?" The Nether Tiger acquiesced to her guess.

"What's so scary? Actually, from the very beginning, I felt that something was not right. Although the cub had injuries on his body, they were all skin injuries and were not life-threatening at all. And no matter how much you hurt it, it always looks at you without a trace of fear in its eyes. Isn't that weird? It doesn't speak, but its dependence on you is not deceiving. Zhuge Ning sighed and said, "It wasn't until I accidentally thought of my brother, my clansman, that I figured out this whole thing at once. Originally...... It turned out that they didn't hate me, they just wanted me to learn to be independent. ”

As she spoke, she wiped away her tears and said sincerely: "Actually, I should thank you." If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have found this. Zhuge Ning paused, and then said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "At first, I didn't dare to confirm it, for fear that I would guess wrong, so I pounced on it all of a sudden." It wasn't until I realized that I had been injured lightly that I confirmed my suspicions. ”

"Imp!!" The Nether Tiger was shocked.

"Don't worry, it'll be strong. Mom said that a person should never lose courage at any time. Even if you tremble with fear, you must move forward bravely. I believe that it will understand this truth, and it will also understand your painstaking efforts. As soon as he talked about his mother, Zhuge Ning's face was filled with a warm and happy smile.

"Alas" The Nether Tiger sighed heavily, something seemed to be circulating in its eyes, and it said seriously, "The rules of the Nether Clan cannot be changed. Imp, if you want, take it away. With you by my side, I'm relieved. ”

"Okay, I promise you." Zhuge Ning did not refuse: "You have to believe in it, believe that it will one day become what you imagined." When it does, I'll bring it back to see you. ”

"Okay, I believe. But before you can do that, you have to learn to protect yourself. According to the clan rules, I can't help you, you ...... Be careful. With that, the Nether Tiger disappeared into the snow and ice.

The snow is still falling, and the air is getting colder.

Due to excessive blood loss, Zhuge Ning's body became more and more stiff, and his consciousness slowly blurred. As for the cubs, the situation is even less rosy.

"Linlin, sow...... Are you all right? If, if I am gone...... "My body is getting colder and colder, and the blood is flowing out unstoppably, Zhuge Ning fell into despair. But when she thought that those two bright smiling faces would cry bitterly because of her death, she felt a power surging in her body.

Finally, Zhuge Ning's eyes widened and he shouted, "I can't die here, absolutely not!" I can't let my brother down, I still have promises that I haven't kept. They...... They're still waiting for me, and I can't fall. ”

As soon as the words fell, the mark left in Zhuge Qing's pupils suddenly appeared and ran out of his eyes. Next, a snowflake-patterned formation appeared around Zhuge Ning and circled around her.

With the rotation of the formation, the pain on his body was reduced a lot, and the bleeding was stopped. A man and a beast fell into a coma and were transmitted to a mysterious space by the formation.

There was nothing around, except for the constantly rotating formations engraved with snowflake patterns.

The voice that came out of nowhere, familiar and warm, called out to the sleeping Zhuge Ning over and over again: "Ning'er, wake up quickly!" You still have important things to do, and you can't just go to sleep. ”

This sentence pulled Zhuge Ning back from his sleep. She opened her eyes and found that she still had tears on her cheeks. But she didn't care about anything, and hurriedly looked at the injured cub, only to see that its breath was getting weaker and weaker, and its body temperature was getting lower and lower.

Zhuge Ning was a little overwhelmed, and tears flowed down at once: "Mom...... What am I going to do? She cried out loud.

Seeing a burst of blue light suddenly emanating from the formation, Zhuge Ning hurriedly wiped away his tears, stood up and looked up, and saw a huge Nether Tiger constantly licking his newborn child, and said gently: "Child, since you were wrapped in purple crystals as soon as you were born, then mother will call you Amethyst." Amethyst, you have to grow up quickly, become strong quickly, and become the pride of your mother. ”

"Amethyst...... Nether Tiger ......" Zhuge Ning subconsciously read the cub's name, and saw that it was emitting purple light all over its body, lying quietly in a huge crystal.

The purple formation slowly rotated under Zhuge Ning's body, and the cub wrapped in the crystal gradually floated into the air, just keeping it at the same height as Zhuge Ning's eyes.

"Amethyst Divine Domain Link, failed; Contracts are signed, failing; The gate of the Divine Domain opened, and failed. ”

A mysterious voice sounded, indicating that the formation link had failed.

A powerful force pushed them away, and both of them flew out left and right, falling to the ground at once, and the purple crystal that wrapped the cub was shattered at this moment.

Zhuge Ning struggled to get up, and as soon as he stood firmly, he spat out a mouthful of blood. But she stood up despite the pain and limped over to the cub. The wounds on its body have disappeared, the temperature is slowly rising, and the breath is gradually calming.

She picked up the cub and kept rubbing it, crying with joy: "Great, you're finally fine~"

The cub also slowly opened his eyes and licked the tears on Zhuge Ning's cheeks. It seems to like Zhuge Ning very much.

"Amethyst, my name is Zhuge Ning. Let me be your family and grow up with you. Zhuge Ning said while crying.

Although Amethyst couldn't speak, it rubbed into Zhuge Ning's arms, constantly licking the tears on her face, as if to comfort her.

Zhuge Ning smiled and rubbed Amethyst's head, "Let's chirp" and kissed it.

As Amethyst recovered, the space slowly disappeared and they were teleported into a forest.

Although Zhuge Ning did not get superpowers as she imagined, she met a soft and cute little guy, which made her feel extremely happy. It was precisely because of it that she opened the knot in her heart and found the reason why she had been unpopular for so many years.

Zhuge Ning put his face on the cub's body, and his face was filled with a happy smile.
