Chapter 372: The Growing King
"Aha?"
When Xiao Ye heard the phoenix proudly say, "I am the king of you", he suddenly had a feeling that he wanted to laugh.
The phoenix is indeed the king of birds, but ......
"But what...... That one...... As you just called me—" Xiao Ye said weakly, "What's that...... I'm a human ......"
As he spoke, he spread his hands, showing off his human beauty and the hands that marked the industriousness of human beings.
"......" Phoenix was distracted again.
Xiao Ye vomited extremely sharply, and what was even more terrifying was that he still had a harmless and innocent expression on his face.
"Humans are also my servants!!" The phoenix, who was in a state of despair, said angrily.
"Uh......" This kind of words close to tsundere and the tone close to tsundere made Xiao Ye suddenly have a sense of familiarity, but at the same time, there was also a feeling of residual thoughts.
"Yes, yes......" Xiao Ye secretly pinched his sweat, not bothering with her, it was only right to complete the task now, so he said stupidly.
"But then again, can you come down from the tree first," but Xiao Ye still didn't call it "king", but continued to use "you" to address it, "I have a pain in my neck when I talk to you like this." ”
This is a thousand-year-old sycamore, twenty or thirty meters high, Xiao Ye is also telling the truth, he has been raising his head to talk to a person or phoenix in mid-air of twenty or thirty meters, everyone can understand it if you imagine it a little.
"I'm not going to come down!" But the phoenix replied very decisively.
"For what?" Xiao Ye said.
"Because our phoenix only inhabits the sycamores," replied the phoenix in the tree, "and there is nowhere else!" ”
Xiao Ye: "......"
Is it time to laugh? Should it be liked?
Forget it, the task comes first, and the other details - I endure!
"By the way, there's something I'd like you to help with." Still not wanting to call it "king", Xiao Ye broke the slightly embarrassing situation between the two of them just now—oh no, between one person and one phoenix—and said to himself, "Actually, I'm here to ......"
"It just so happens that I have something I want to ask you about as well." Xiao Ye hadn't finished speaking, but he heard that Phoenix had already interrupted him and said to himself.
Xiao Ye didn't say that it was okay to ask her for help with something, but when he mentioned it, Phoenix suddenly remembered that he had just woken up the human below, not to talk to him about the customs of the Phoenix Clan, but to have something to ask.
"Yes, yes......" Xiao Ye relented, reluctantly, and let her ask first, "What do you want to ask me?" ”
"Hmm...... First of all, I want to ask you, "As a spirit bird, Phoenix feels that it is necessary to clarify the level of speech, so that it is the manifestation of intelligent creatures, so at this time, one by one, I asked, "What is your name?" ”
"Can't you see for yourself?" Xiao Ye felt that the phoenix was asking knowingly. Although it is true that many ordinary NPCs can't see his character name as a transformer, in the city battle, Xiao Ye feels that those high-ranking generals of Chu State, as well as the kings and some officials in the palace, seem to be able to see his character name, and in addition, some low-intelligence mechanical NPCs of the system can also recognize him, such as the NPCs of the team competition, and the NPC guards of the palace or the general's mansion. In other words, the two extreme NPCs, very high intelligence and very low intelligence, can see his character name, so that they can not only identify the player, but also continue to abide by the principle of hiding the character name of the Shapeshifter class, because these two NPCs will not be idle and idle to promote a player's character name. Of course, Xiao Ye is also relatively lucky, because as he enters the city war and enters the world realm, on many occasions, even if the NPC does not deliberately reveal his character name, it is obvious that he still has to mention his name from time to time when calling him, and Xiao Ye happened to let Youxi change his name before this, otherwise I really don't know how much trouble Lu Dao will have. …,
However, those are all off-topic, and the current situation is that, as a highly intelligent creature, Xiao Ye thinks that the phoenix can obviously see his character name.
"Of course I can see for myself." Sure enough, Phoenix immediately replied, "But what's your name?" Long...... Long (chang) princess? ”
"It's the eldest princess! Eldest Princess! z-h-a-n-g!!! "Xiao Ye's remnant thoughts, as a spirit bird, the phoenix seems to not know the term the eldest princess of the Dao?
"I ...... Of course, I know that the noun should be pronounced princess zhang! The phoenix was equally distracted, and quickly said loudly, "But what's the matter with you?" A man with such a name, do you still have this special hobby? ”
"That'...... Someone else put it on me! Xiao Ye's face suddenly became hot, and he immediately replied loudly, "I am in my world, but I have a dignified manly name!" ”
"That's right, tell me your real name." Phoenix said dryly.
"......" Xiao Ye suddenly felt slightly worried, this phoenix felt as unreliable as a beautiful master, if he told her too many things, there was really no guarantee that there would be no problems in the future, at least, before the beautiful master completely surrendered to him, many of his situations were also reserved for the beautiful master.
"You...... Why do you ask in such detail, it's useless for me to tell you my name in my world, people in this world world call me my name now," Xiao Ye's mind raced quickly, using various ways to bypass this question, "You can continue to call me 'human'...... Then again, did you wake me up to ask my name? ”
"Of course not!" Phoenix said, "Human, I'm asking you, why did you appear here, and also, there was a group of tigers and wolves attacking my plane tree before, did you drive them away?" ”
"Kill them, to be exact." Xiao Ye immediately began to pretend to be *b, taking all the credit for Daisy on himself.
"Killed them?" Phoenix said in some surprise.
"I'm here for a task given to me by the king of Chu," Xiao Ye felt that it was better not to let the phoenix ask in an incoherent manner, and it would be more concise and practical to tell it from beginning to end, "To put it simply, a phoenix feather enshrined in the Chu State as a holy relic disappeared in this area, and asked me to help find it, so I searched in a carpet way, and after destroying the large group of tigers and wolves outside, I found it here, and saw that there were level 180 tigers doing things that were attacking the plane tree, so I gathered a few of my own...... Well...... A few very close friends, everyone worked together to destroy the tiger and wolf here without accidentally injuring the plane tree, but the 180-level tiger king is really not simple, I fought too devoted, too hard, so I also collapsed after the fight, and when my friends went to other places to search for clues, I was so tired that I could only rely on the rockery to take a nap to recover my strength - well, that's what happened before and after. ”
"I see...... Xiao Ye's explanation is simple and clear, while trying his best to take credit for himself and sell favors, he still respects the facts in general, so everything is reasonable, Phoenix heard him say this, and suddenly found that he had no questions to ask him again.
"So now I want to ask you about it too," Xiao Ye brought the conversation to the point, the phoenix is obviously a mission NPC, but it doesn't seem to understand this setting itself, "Do you know the phoenix feather I just mentioned and has been enshrined in the palace of the king of Chu before?" ”
"Of course, I know it." Phoenix replied without thinking.
"And where is it now?" Xiao Ye was overjoyed and hurriedly asked.
"It's gone." Phoenix replied succinctly this time.
Xiao Ye: "......"
"Forgive me for taking the liberty ......," Xiao Ye said weakly, "Can you please explain the specific situation - it disappeared?" What will disappear? "...," that's a long story. The phoenix said, "Do you know that our phoenix clan only gives birth to a new member every thousand years, but each phoenix can only live for 1,200 years?" ”
"I don't know about this." Xiao Ye held his head high when he said this, not for anything else, just because the phoenix stood alive and dead on the high branch and couldn't come down, he had to tilt his head. "But in that case, wouldn't the members of your clan be extremely scarce?" He thought for a moment and then continued, "No wonder legends often say that the phoenix is worried about finding a soulmate......
"Of course!" Hearing him say this, Phoenix immediately said proudly, "The things we like are not truly extraordinary for ordinary races. ”
"......" Xiao Ye has become more and more sure, the phoenix in front of her is definitely born recently, this guy has not experienced the baptism of the long river of time, and has not deeply tasted the taste of loneliness, if it has lived for hundreds of years, she can definitely feel it now, sometimes it is more painful to live alone than to die.
At this time, Xiao Ye suddenly thought of the classic "confession" that Apricot said to Sayaka - "We are magical girls, but there are no other similar ones!! "And the magical girl can still gather the five-color legion, even if the positions between each other are once complicated and often regard each other as hostile, but at least they know that there are similar kinds of existence in the Dao, and there is really only one phoenix. And this guy is still like Sayaka who didn't listen to Apricot at the beginning, and he doesn't know the predicament he is about to face - will it also be "blackened"......
Xiao Ye suddenly thought of the black phoenix he killed when the monster attacked the city before...... Could it be that there is a connection?
That's really curious, isn't it......
"A lot of things, from different angles, will have different feelings," although there was a residual thought, Xiao Ye still quickly responded, "But then again, what does this have to do with the Feng Yu I am looking for?" ”
"It has a lot to do with it." Phoenix replied, "Although we are kings, when we were born, we were not absolutely powerful, you see that although I am already level 210 now, I was only level 150 when I was born a few months ago, and until now, my own abilities have not yet been formed, it is said that if I grow on my own, it may take several years, so I am still ...... Well...... A little weak...... This is also the reason why the tigers and wolves you saw before dared to attack after stumbling upon my hiding place, and we are extremely few members, so the former member must give strong protection to the next born member, and the one before me is the owner of the feather you are looking for. ”
