Chapter 514: Medusa's Past (Fourth Update)

In addition to Dumb and Maddar, Gao Peng can also look at Medusa, and the damage is transferred to Dumb anyway......

However, this Medusa still has a good temper, which is completely different from the fierce and vicious Medusa in mythological stories.

Medusa and Gao Peng glanced at each other and said softly: "There are very few monsters who can talk to me with their eyes, can you talk to me for a while." ”

"Of course, I would love to. Gao Peng had a formal standard smile on his face.

Medusa smiled.

Dumb followed behind Gao Peng as a bodyguard.

As soon as the Medusa shows the slightest abnormality, it will immediately break its neck.

Gao Peng talked to this Medusa for a long time.

I heard that this Medusa came from another labyrinth far away from here, and it was born there, and it was a giant labyrinth dozens of times larger than here.

It was driven out of the labyrinth by its mother when it became an adult, and the Medusa was a group that did not like to live in groups.

Their withdrawn nature makes it difficult for them to coexist with other members of their kind, except during the period of reproduction.

Even their own descendants are treated the same.

Listening to the Medusa in front of her, its mother is a rare good temper, and she has been raising her to be an adult before driving it away.

Of course, Medusa is not explicitly gendered, in fact it is an androgynous monster.

At least that's the case with Medusa in the world of black fog.

When they mate, they wrap their tails like snakes, and the stronger one becomes the "mother" and the weaker one acts as the "father".

So it's highly likely that they'll be fathers. It is also possible to serve as a mother.

Gao Peng listened to it with relish, this is cold knowledge that he has never heard of.

"Then do you want to come with me? I'm a wandering envoy, these are my beasts, let's go on an adventure together, go on an adventure together, maybe you'll meet another new Medusa. "Gao Peng tempted this earth Medusa.

But Earth Medusa rejected Gao Peng.

These temptations don't work for it, it doesn't like to come into contact with other Medusas, and it doesn't like the lively environment.

It likes to stay alone in the depths of the labyrinth, watching the changes of the seasons and the vicissitudes of the sea, which it thinks is the most beautiful scenery in the world.

Gao Peng didn't understand this mentality, but since others didn't want to go with him, he couldn't force it.

After Gao Peng and the others walked away, Medusa returned to the depths of the labyrinth.

Deep in the labyrinth is a small and delicate stone house, in front of which there is a spacious open space with delicate stone sculptures.

The stone sculptures are large and small, of different types, the smallest is a fist-sized sparrow statue, the sparrow stone statue has its wings folded, its expression is gentle, and its eyes are drooping, as if it is asleep.

The big ones have all kinds of monsters.

Earth Medusa sat on a stone bench with her chin propped up on her hands, staring at the sculptures in a daze, and then slowly closed her eyes.

A hundred years ago, a half-meter-tall little Medusa left the labyrinth for the first time and came to the forest outside, and a flock of small sparrows chirped over the forest.

At that time, it had not yet awakened the Eye of Medusa, and it was kind enough to quickly become friends with these sparrows.

Then one day, while it was playing with the sparrows, a sharp-toothed wolf suddenly rushed out of the forest, and in a pinch, it awakened the eye of Medusa and petrified the sharp-toothed wolf.

But two sparrows also accidentally flew in front of its eyes, looked at it and turned into stones.

The other sparrows flew away in terror, believing it to be a monster, ominous, and never seen since.

Little Medusa was aggrieved and held the two sparrows that had been turned into stone, and she saved them with her hair, one of them escaped after being rescued, and the other was willing to stay and be friends with her.

It's also its only friend,

A sparrow.

Later, in contact, although it has been avoided as much as possible, its eyes are too terrifying, and there are always times when it is accidentally injured.

All the monsters that were willing to befriend it at first with various purposes eventually left its side, and the only one left was the sparrow.

It remembers very well that it had accidentally "mistakenly injured" the sparrow friend six times, and petrified it six times.

The sparrow didn't seem to mind, happily hovering around its head every time the petrification curse was lifted, "Hey, that's awesome, I think I'm alive again, what do you think?"

At this time, Medusa would bow her head, not daring to look up at her friend, for fear that she would accidentally injure him again. "I'll pay attention next time. ”

It's ridiculous to say that it has been friends with Sparrow for thirty years, but only a handful of times have actually looked at each other since awakening the Eye of Medusa.

The lifespan of a sparrow is limited, and the normal lifespan of a sparrow is only ten years, but this sparrow friend has extended its lifespan to thirty years after eating a lot of spiritual fruits given to it by Medusa, but this is already the limit.

At the last moment of his life, the sparrow said to it, "I don't think you look like a Medusa, I have never heard of a Medusa as kind as you." ”

"You know what? A kind Medusa like you is the most easily deceived. The sparrow said solemnly, at this time the sparrow's eyelashes have turned white, and the feathers on the top of its head and wings have all turned gray-white, it is too old, and it looks like a wise man.

"Do you know that when we first came into contact with you, we were just trying to trick some spirit fruits from you to eat. The sparrow spoke.

"How could the sparrow take the initiative to become friends with Medusa? Because we know that you are Medusa, and we know that the little fruit you carry in your pocket is a spiritual fruit, and we can prolong our life by eating it, so we approach you. ”

Medusa didn't get angry, just smiled shallowly, "That's good, too." ”

Medusa doesn't care about this bit of spiritual fruit, there are many fruit trees planted in her mother's yard, which can be picked and eaten at will, and it would be a great thing if she could exchange the spiritual fruit for some friends.

"You ......" The sparrow suddenly didn't know what to say, this stupid guy is a fool, it wants to be angry, but it is reluctant to be angry with it.

But...... It's because of its stupidity that I'm willing to be friends with it.

The sparrow smiled helplessly, it looked up at the sky, and the two blue moons in the sky hung high, making the back garden at night extraordinarily quiet.

"Medusa, I want to see you. Sparrow said suddenly.

"Okay. Medusa raised her head and closed her eyes, her pale green skin was dyed blue by the moonlight, and her smooth, clean face could be broken by blowing.

The sparrow looked at it for five seconds, his eyes unblinking, "I want to see you open your eyes." ”

"You're going to be petrified. Medusa said with her eyes closed.

“...... I've lived too long, maybe I'm going to die of old age tonight, I want to really look at you before I die, and when I'm petrified, you don't lift my petrification again, just let me turn into a stone to accompany you. Sparrow said earnestly.

Medusa opened her eyes, and the sparrow stood on the branch and met Medusa's eyes.

"Your eyes are so pretty. ”

This was the last word the sparrow spoke, and then it turned to stone.

Earth Medusa's eyes blinked, and she woke up from her memory, and the two small claws of the stone statue sparrow in front of her were hooked to the branches, tilting her head as if she were still alive, and her eyes were telling silent words.
