Chapter 17: The Seed of Love
The calm words passed away like flowing clouds.
Spring goes to autumn, the seasons turn, and the crystal snowflakes inadvertently fall on the top of the houses in Jade City.
However, Xia Han, who had just turned six, was not in the mood to enjoy this scenery, because he was assassinated.
"It hurts, if only there was a band-aid."
Xia Han clutched his stomach and walked against the wall, a trace of blood running down his fingers, and then absorbed by the pale yellow paper hanging from his waist.
The injury was clearly not a Band-Aid that could be cured.
But Xia Han was still very glad in his heart for his good fortune, he had suffered countless assassinations in the past six months, but nothing had happened under the protection of Xiao Sheng and the thieves, so he relaxed his defense - who would have expected that the assassin would assassinate in the toilet.
On the way back to the city that day, Xia Han wanted to go to the toilet alone, but as soon as he entered, he saw a person lying on the ground, stroking chrysanthemums and convulsing.
When he looked at it, I wiped this unscientifically! Then he ran out with the chrysanthemum in his hand, and the assassin obviously realized that he had stabbed the wrong chrysanthemum, and threw the knife out improvised - just to stab Xia Han.
Fortunately, the thieves appeared in time, which allowed Xia Han to escape.
"Little princess!"
Xiao Sheng's figure flashed in front of Xia Han, and he looked at Xia Han's wound with an iron face: "It's assassination again!" I'm going to kill that guy! β
"Someone has already gone to kill him" Xia Han glanced at Xiao Sheng, and then sighed: "You better take me back to the carriage." β
Xiao Sheng was stunned for a moment, helped Xia Han up, and took him back to the carriage.
"Your Highness!"
Wujian, who was waiting in the carriage, saw Xia Han's injury and immediately got up: "Blood, you are injured!" She reached out to help Xia Han sit down, and then took out the medicine and bandages from under the stool to bandage them skillfully.
Fortunately, the injuries were not as horrific as they seemed on the surface, and the stabbing was only in the skin and not in the stomach, and the sword quickly stopped bleeding.
"Thank you."
Xia Han breathed a sigh of relief, and then closed his eyes tiredly.
The carriage drove smoothly, and the squeak of the wooden wheels through the snow left two deep marks behind it, stretching into the distance.
"Stop!" A crisp female voice called for the carriage to stop, and Xia Han didn't even have to look to guess that there was a Lori riding a foal outside-Bai Yue. This girl doesn't know why she has such a strong sense of hostility towards Xia Han, and she has been intercepting their carriage for the past few days.
"Idiot princess, today you must give an explanation why the theater you use is not allowed to be used by others!" She was making a lot of noise outside, and Xia Han muttered in her heart: [This question is about my, you should ask your father.] γ
He only sang and didn't care about anything else.
"No sword, go and let her go." Xia Han ordered no sword, and the latter nodded and lifted the curtain and walked out.
"Miss, His Highness is sleeping in the car, can you please not disturb him?"
"What! Go to bed? I can't sleep, I can't hear me, so I'll come back tomorrow."
Bai Yue rode the foal and left neatly - she was as natural as ever, Xia Han closed his eyes, he was very worried about Bai Yue's future Will this girl really survive when she grows up?
Back at the City Lord's Mansion, the injured Xia Han was immediately helped to the room to settle down, and his dinner and medicinal soup were brought from the kitchen without a sword.
After drinking the last dose of medicine, it was already late, and Wujian put the dishes and chopsticks on the ground and took out some jerky from under the bed.
"You haven't fed Kitty yet?"
Xia Han slept before, so he didn't know what was going on.
The eaglet was a fat bird he picked up half a year ago, and the two of them originally just played with it as an ordinary bird, but they didn't expect this guy to grow more and more fierce, and the back turned into a white eagle.
"Well, I've been busy in the kitchen." Wujian nodded, then walked out the door with his jerky. The white eagle, who had grown to the point that he was about to be unable to live in the cage, had long been screaming with hunger, and immediately became excited when he saw the jerky in Wujian's hand.
"Alright, don't move!" Wujian stabilized the cage, and then put the jerky in, and just as she put it in, she suddenly shook her body and fell to the ground with a thud.
"No sword!" Xia Han was taken aback, but quickly answered him with a "it's okay".
Wujian patted his clothes and slowly stood up, turned his back to Xia Han and said, "I accidentally tripped my foot just now." She touched the white eagle in the cage, then walked into the house and blew out the candle.
"Your Highness, let's release the eaglet in two days, it's too fat."
Wujian walked over to the bed, and as he spoke, he bent down to pick up the utensils on the ground.
"Wait." Xia Han tugged at her sleeve, even though the room was dim, he still found that Wujian's movements were a little unnatural: "Are you sick again?" β
"I can't hide anything from Your Highness" Wujian smiled, she carefully let go of Xia Han's hand, and then picked up the utensils: "It's a little sick, anyway, it will be fine tomorrow morning." β
She walked outside, and Xia Han could see the snowflakes fluttering outside under the moonlight through her back.
"In half a year, you have been sick sixty-eight times." He spoke suddenly.
Wujian was stunned and apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry"
"What about the other than this?"
"None"
She quickly left the house.
On winter nights, the night sky is as clear as a jewel. Two moons lead the stars in the vast sky. From time to time, a cold wind blew through the cloister and sprinkled snowflakes on the girl. Wujian packed up her things and didn't sleep, she took the barrel and washed her clothes quietly in the hallway, every day and every day with almost no interruption.
Xia Han was lying on the bed, he looked up at the sky outside, the snowflakes fluttering in the air made him feel very elegant, but he couldn't be happy.
Why?
"Hey, do you want to kill me too?"
Xia Han suddenly spoke, and a vague shadow immediately appeared next to his bed: "No, Your Highness, I am your guardian." β
The masked thief bent over the edge of the bed, his eyes twinkling.
"Our Gu clan has been the guardian of the Xia clan since ancient times."
After the death of the king of men, his descendants established their own countries with the surname of spring, summer, autumn and winter. After thousands of years of the tide of the times, the reason why the Four Royal Clans still dominate nearly eighty percent of the land in the human world is due to their respective guardian clans.
Each royal family with a surname has a different guardian clan, and the guardian clan has supremacy in the empire. The Four Royals gave the Guardian Clan a very high recognition, and if any person from any empire who was not a royal killed the Guardian Clan, the Four Royals would work together to eradicate this person.
Therefore, for thousands of years, only a few people dared to make a move against the guardian clan.
This way of passing on to this day is almost incredible, and the guardian clan has never betrayed the country or broken its blood for thousands of years, as if it were a fantasy, and legend has it that only four kings have the truth.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, I will not let people hurt you"
The thief disappeared after speaking, Xia Han calmly watched him disappear, and then looked outside.
I don't know how long it took, but Swordless walked in. She looked at Xia Han, who was not asleep, and was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a low voice, "Can't you sleep?" β
"It's a little cold" Xia Han patted the edge of the bed and smiled: "Come on, I want to sleep with you." β
Wujian was startled.
She stared at Xia Han, his eyes twinkling in the dark, very beautiful.
"Yes." Wujian took off his coat and carefully slept next to Xia Han, separating the distance very widely.
Xia Han didn't want to shrink the distance, he just stretched out his right hand and held the little hand that Wujian had just washed his clothes.
"Your Highness is cold." Wujian wanted to retract it, but Xia Han held it tightly: "It's okay" He closed his eyes and quietly let the Dream Demon pull him to sleep.
"I'm sorry"
Half-asleep, he heard a female voice apologizing.
"Idiot, I'm the one who should say I'm sorry, right?"
Xia Han replied like a dream, and his breathing became calmer.
[You already saw that? Wujian turned his head sideways and looked at Xia Han's sleeping face, and the corners of his eyes became wet a little.
"Your Highness, I haven't regretted it once in sixty-eight times"
She gently shook Xia Han's hand, and her two small hands were crossed under the quilt, and she didn't let go all night.
On this night, a small seed of love has just sprouted, but the wind and snow have not stopped.
"Little princess, no, little prince, I warned you not to be tempted a long time ago"
In the attic in the distance, the city lord of Jade City opened his cold and ruthless eyes, and his heart was like a cold wind: "Sure enough, no matter how great and rational people in the world are, they can't escape the temptation of women and the entanglement of their parents, and they still want to pass it on to this generation?" β
The king, the mage, the alien princess, and the elven female lord have witnessed four heroes who are enough to lead the world destroy themselves because of love, how can Wujing allow this sin to continue to be passed on!
Thankfully, everything went according to his plan.
"Hmph" he sneered: "Eight months, the frost and snow should also fall tomorrow, you go and kill that maid." β
A knight slowly walked out of the shadow behind himβXiao Sheng.
"Yes."
He knelt on one knee, his eyes filled with fanatical loyalty to the man in front of him.
