Chapter 539: Rootless Grass
"I guess there's something more special." Miss Lili whispered, "Like, these grasses actually move? β
"yes." Xiao Qing blinked her big beautiful eyes, "Who made them travel grasses?" "So how does this grass move? "It's magical. Xiao Qing said, "At the beginning of the journey, the tallest blue grass will carry the other two small grasses on its back. "Red grass and black grass? Miss Lili asked softly.
"Yes." Xiao Qing said, "Their relationship is very close, and there are talks and laughs along the way." "It seems that these grasses can not only walk, but also talk. Miss Lili said disdainfully, "My dear, is every princess so fond of crankiness?" "Just let me think about it one last time. Xiao Qing asked with a smile.
At this moment, looking at the slim Princess Asood, Miss Lili had an illusion, as if she had traveled thousands of years and returned to the cold arena of the Birdman Project. It was a dark day, and every day at dusk, after a day's training, Miss Lili would collapse in the arena as if she had lost all the energy in her life. But every now and then, the young princess Assod would silently walk up to her, and then stretch out her little hand and say in a pleading tone, "Sister, let's practice again." Practice again, think again. Your Royal Highness, the look on your face when you say this is exactly the same as when you were a child.
Seeing that Miss Lili was in a daze, Xiao Qing called softly, "Sister Li? β
"Go ahead." Miss Lili said.
"Good!" Xiao Qing smiled sweetly.
"My dear, even if these magical grasses can walk, why do they have to move?" β¨"To live. Xiao Qing said softly, "The land is so barren that these three grasses must keep migrating in order to live." "The migration of grass? Miss Lili thought for a moment and said, "Curious. "But the land was like that, and it was all desert in the past, and the grass had to be constantly moving in order to live. Xiao Qing said, "Every time they find a place where they can absorb nutrients, these three grasses will stop, re-root in the soil, absorb the limited nutrients completely, and then embark on the journey of survival again." β
"So, despite the name of the travel grass, this trip is not romantic at all?"
"Yes," Xiao Qing said, "in order to survive, you can only keep moving forward." "And what happened after that? "Later, the black and red grass slowly grew, while the blue grass that had been carrying them all this time withered. "Why? "Maybe it's because grass is not naturally suitable for migration. Xiao Qing said softly, "They should have taken root in the earth. "But why is it that only the blue grass has withered? "Because it's always been him who has been carrying others on his back, and he's already overwhelmed. "Okay. After a pause, Miss Lili asked, "And finally, is this blue grass dead?" "Not yet. Xiao Qing said softly, "But it won't last long." "Why? Miss Lili asked suddenly.
"The final migration was the hardest of all journeys, and it was so long that it would inevitably drain all the energy of the blue grass."
"Even so, does the blue grass choose to carry the other two grasses on its back?" β¨"Yes. Xiao Qing said, "It was on this final journey that Blue Grass made a decision. "What decision? "Even if I'm gone, you two have to find a way to survive. Xiao Qing said affectionately, "After explaining this sentence, the blue grass divided its last nutrients into two parts, one for the black grass and the other for the red grass. β
"Hehe," Miss Lili smiled, "self-sacrifice? "Yes. "The other two grasses accepted it safely? "It was forced to accept. Xiao Qing said, "The youngest red grass didn't understand what was going on at all, but the slightly larger black grass firmly disagreed, she cried and shouted for the blue grass to stop, and with her constant insistence, the blue grass finally left a little nutrient for herself." "That's why he didn't die, but he didn't live long? "Yes. Xiao Qing said, "In this last migration, the blue grass divided itself into three parts, and from then on he was no longer a complete grass, but his life was continued in the body of the other two grasses. Because from this moment on, they are no longer separated from each other. "It's over? Miss Lili frowned. β¨"It's over soon. Xiao Qing said. β¨"Honey, there's one minute left, and the countdown is about to begin. "It doesn't matter, because there's only one sentence left in the story. Xiao Qing continued, "In the last long journey, the three grasses finally supported each other and persevered, but they were all weak, and even two grasses lost their ability to take root in the earth, namely the blue grass that has been silently dedicated and the weakest red grass, but fortunately, the black grass did not lose this ability, this time, she took the lead in taking root in the earth, constantly absorbing nutrients, and began to feed the other two grasses. Fortunately, this time, they finally came to a place with fertile soil, where there are enough nutrients, and they can live here in peace and no longer have to wander to survive. "It seems," said Miss Lili, "that the story is finally over." "Yes," Xiao Qing said with a smile, "Sister Li, how is this story?" "It's a pity," Miss Lili shook her head, "that the story is still terrible in the end. "Why? Xiao Qing's face did not change. β¨"My dear, I told you not to be clever! Miss Lili stood up from the dragon chair, and then said coldly, "What kind of story is this in the end?" It's clearly a fable! "Fables? Xiao Qing blinked, "Sister Li, why do you say that?" "Look at what you're wearing! Miss Lili pointed at Xiao Qing and said, "The red grass in here clearly refers to yourself!" β
"Ah......" Xiao Qing, who was dressed in a red dress, said innocently, "I was discovered." "Obviously, the black grass is me," Miss Lili's black dress stood out as she stood up, "and the blue grass ......" "Ah Feng." Xiao Qing said first.
"That's right." Miss Lili said coldly, "We three children who ran out of the old empire are like three grasses without roots, but this is the only place where your fable really makes sense, and the rest is your wishful thinking." "No......" Xiao Qing retorted softly.
But Miss Lili went on with herself.
"Even if the black grass takes root in the soil first, she will never care if the other two grass live or die." Miss Lili sneered and said, "Because only by destroying the other two grasses can she rule this land with peace of mind!" "It's not. This time, Xiao Qing raised her voice slightly.
"Oh? Then I'll give you one last chance. Miss Lili's voice suddenly became unusually gentle, like the calm before a rainstorm.
"My Royal Highness, dear princess, since you like to ask and answer questions so much, let's play a quiz game one last time." Miss Lili said softly, "But this time, I will ask the question, and you will answer." "Okay. "If you don't answer correctly, I'll kill you. "Okay. "If you can't answer, I'll kill you too. β
"Okay." β¨"Even if I hesitate to answer, I'll still kill you! "Okay. Xiao Qing didn't hesitate.
"Why do you deny that this fable is just wishful thinking on your part?" β¨For there is a great fact in this parable. "Where? "Where the blue grass divides its life into three parts," Xiao Qing said, "it is precisely because of this that the blue grass is no longer a complete grass." "So what? β
"The blue grass represents Ah Feng. Sister Li, you once said that Ah Feng is not even half a person, why do you say that? Xiao Qing said softly, "That's because Ah Feng has experienced the same thing as the blue grass in the fable, and at the moment of crossing the danger, it was Ah Feng who gave us his power, so that we could stand here unharmed." After hearing this, Miss Lili fell into a long silence, her beautiful eyes were constantly changing colors, for a long time, for a long time......
ββ¦β¦ Interesting. Finally, Miss Lili smiled, and she slowly crossed her slender fingers together, "Honey, what do you mean to cross the danger?" "The migration of grass is just a metaphor, and to understand what it means to cross the danger, we have to go back to the third story. Xiao Qing said.
"Is that the story of the search for star fragments?" β¨"Yes. Xiao Qing said with a smile, "As I said, those fragments eventually fell back to the earth, but they were all in places that were difficult for ordinary people to set foot on. Reaching these six places is extremely difficult, and overcoming danger means reaching these places where the star fragments are hidden. "Hehe," Miss Lili smiled, "in order to deal with these unimaginable dangers, at the suggestion of Teacher Chris, the king has made a crystal plan?" "Yes. "So, another part of the fairy tale has become a reality? "Yes. Xiao Qing also smiled, "The Crystal Project is the Birdman Project we have experienced. "Interesting. "Then in the second story, the secret plan that the king personally sent the princess into is also the Birdman Project?" "Yes. Xiao Qing said, "It seems that the second story is connected with the third story and the fifth story." "And there's more to it than that, there's the first story. Miss Lili said, "Obviously, the little boy refers to Ah Feng, and the other two little girls are the two of us. "Yes. β
"And what about the beautiful flowers?" Miss Lili asked, "What exactly are they looking for?" Is it a beautiful flower or a fragment of a star? β
