Chapter 14: New Companions
Wang Xingjiang couldn't keep practicing, in addition to his physical fitness was not up to standard, he also had to replenish firewood from time to time to avoid the two fires being completely extinguished, which to some extent achieved the effect of combining work and rest.
After going around and around like this, he finally waited for the sunshine to appear, and saw that the fire was still there, so Wang Xingjiang rubbed his sore arm and fell asleep with peace of mind.
It wasn't long before the mist spread, and the sun that had just fallen was blocked, and the whole meadow was in a fog.
As the fog increased, black smoke began to emit from the tail flame of the little fire dragon, which made it very irritable, and it woke up after a while of restlessness.
Although he didn't sleep until he woke up naturally like yesterday morning, because of his ample sleep, the little fire dragon didn't feel sleepy at all.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I was greeted by a diffuse fog, because I woke up late yesterday and couldn't see it, and this time it was the first time that the little fire dragon saw the foggy sky.
Seeing this situation was as excited as the first few times he had encountered something new, the little fire dragon wanted to explore it very much.
But because the visibility of the fog here is extremely low, and it has even become a gray patch, it is enough to make people feel frightened, worrying about whether there is some unknown risk hidden in it.
The little fire dragon was afraid, it was afraid that it would encounter a monster like a clockwork chariot again, but it was even more afraid that if it entered the fog, it would be separated from Wang Xingjiang and never be found again.
Worry soon overwhelmed the desire for adventure, and then the little fire dragon thought that he could call Wang Xingjiang up to explore together, so that one person and one dragon would not be separated, and they could take care of each other. The little fire dragon is very confident that Wang Xingjiang will definitely protect it, not only because Wang Xingjiang has always been very good to the little fire dragon, but also because Wang Xingjiang has already done this.
The little fire dragon looked in the direction of Wang Xingjiang and found him leaning against the wreckage of the clockwork chariot with his eyes closed. After the little fire dragon compared the situation in his memory and determined that Wang Xingjiang was only sleeping and not yesterday's situation, the little fire dragon decided not to disturb Wang Xingjiang, after all, it also knew that sleeping was a very comfortable thing, and it was not good to disturb people's dreams, so Wang Xingjiang didn't wake it up in the morning.
At this time, the little fire dragon felt very bored, and he could neither walk around nor have anyone to play with him, but fortunately, the little fire dragon quickly found what he could do.
It clumsily held the firewood, slowly put a few pieces of firewood on the fire in front of Wang Xingjiang that was about to be extinguished, and then used the flame to increase the fire.
Although there was only a vague impression, the little fire dragon still remembered that he climbed on Wang Xingjiang's lap to warm up yesterday because of the cold, just because the fire went out. Then light the fire now, Wang Xingjiang will not be as cold as himself to huddle together to keep warm.
The little dragon who had lit the fire sat down by the fire to keep warm, and then it found its last target last night, the egg of the tall bird.
The little fire dragon walked to the side of the egg, it remembered that Wang Xingjiang said last night was "add vegetables", then this is what can be eaten, it just so happens that the little fire dragon is also hungry after getting up in the morning, so let's eat.
However, as soon as the little fire dragon touched the surface of the egg, he found that this surface was very hard, and it was the same thing as the last thing left over from yesterday's dinner, which was something that he couldn't bite, so he couldn't eat it.
The little fire dragon was disappointed, and knocked the egg with his little hand to vent his anger, but the egg suddenly cracked a big crack, startling it.
Wang Xingjiang was woken up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the little fire dragon was shaking himself anxiously, what's wrong, what's going on? Wang Xingjiang was very puzzled.
When the little fire dragon saw that Wang Xingjiang was awake, he jumped off his body and began to point to something behind it and scream.
Wang Xingjiang, who was woken up and lacked sleep, was still in a daze, and slowly looked in the direction that the little fire dragon was pointing. Except for the broken eggshell, it's just a small tall bird, no big deal, huh? Wait, little stilts?!
Wang Xingjiang is sober, that egg actually hatched!? Isn't it, the eggs that have to be hatched for two or three days in the game, and they have to pay attention to the temperature change at all times, are just roasted overnight and hatched?! Shouldn't it be roasted?
However, the fact is that the egg has indeed hatched, and the little tall bird is still very healthy when it has just hatched. The little tall bird was running after the little fire dragon at this time, and the little fire dragon was very frightened and fled from Wang Xingjiang for help in front, and a dragon and a bird circled around the fire like this.
Wang Xingjiang can understand that the little stilt bird should have regarded the little fire dragon he saw at first sight after hatching it as his mother, so he kept chasing the little fire dragon.
The little fire dragon was frightened when he saw a living creature that suddenly came out of the egg and had to chase after him, so he kept running.
Wang Xingjiang, who wanted to understand, stretched out his hand to stop the little fire dragon's escape, "Don't worry, it's no problem, it just treats you as a mother." ”
Although he didn't know much about the meaning of "mother", Xiao Huolong still decided to maintain his usual absolute trust in Wang Xingjiang and stop. But when he saw the little tall bird chasing after him like a wolf and a tiger, he turned his back and closed his eyes.
Fortunately, the little stilt bird really regarded the little fire dragon as Wang Xingjiang expected, and after it got close to the little fire dragon, it began to rub the little fire dragon's back like a coquette, and kept chirping happily.
The little fire dragon was ready to be attacked, but what it felt was the grinding of its feathers, not a violent attack. The little fire dragon turned around and saw a creature that was somewhat similar to the monster he encountered yesterday rubbing against him.
It turned out that it wasn't attacking itself, but I thought it was a monster that came to attack. Only then did the little fire dragon react, and then it sat down with confidence and let the little tall bird coquettish.
Of course, Wang Xingjiang was very happy to see such an interesting scene, but then he thought of a very dangerous thing.
Little tall birds are not well raised, this is common sense in the game. In the game, Wang Xingjiang raised a small tall bird once, which was useless at first, but after growing up once, he could help hunting, which was a bit useful.
However, when the little stilt grows up again and grows into a stilt, it will immediately attack its owner. The sudden attack made Wang Xingjiang scramble for a while, but fortunately there were no major problems.
From then on, as soon as Wang Xingjiang saw the eggs of the stilted birds, he boiled them directly and ate them, which saved trouble and did not have to be bad again. This is also one of the reasons why Wang Xingjiang plans to eat the eggs of stilts when he sees them here, and he doesn't want to be upset in reality.
But now that the eggs have hatched into little tall birds, what to do? Do you want to kill them directly? Now it's still very weak and can be easily killed, do you want to get rid of it now to prevent future troubles?
But it's hard to start, Wang Xingjiang is very distressed. He's done the killing, and it's no longer a problem to do it to hostile animals. But the little tall bird has no hostile intentions now, and is still playing with the little fire dragon in love.
After thinking about it a few times, Wang Xingjiang still decided not to do it, looking at the big sparkling eyes, he really couldn't do it. And what if it's different from the game? Wouldn't it be better to be a partner all the time!
Then it's decided, I'll think about it later, and let it have fun with the little fire dragon now.
Wang Xingjiang happily went to the side to rinse his mouth, and the little fire dragon who was left in place was very impatient, but because he didn't feel hostile, he could only keep pushing away the little tall bird, and the little tall bird kept sticking to it, and the two cycled back and forth.
The little fire dragon finally couldn't stand it, even though he felt that the "mother" that Wang Xingjiang said just now was what he should do, as if he should remain tolerant, but it was too uncomfortable to keep rubbing back and forth.
The unbearable little fire dragon spewed out a flame, how about it, it's terrifying, this is my most powerful skill!
Seeing the little tall bird stunned, the little fire dragon became proud, and was frightened, let you scare me just now!
However, the little tall bird only stayed for a while, and immediately squeezed even harder.
The little fire dragon is helpless now, he can't use his claws, then it won't be good if he accidentally hurts the little tall bird.
There was no other way, the little fire dragon had to let the little stilt bird rub casually, rub it, rub it, and there was no loss anyway.
As soon as Wang Xingjiang came back, he saw that the little fire dragon was loveless and let the little tall bird be coquettish at will, which made him very happy, but Wang Xingjiang still kindly reminded him: "The little fire dragon can run with it, just exercise." ”
The little fire dragon thought about it, yes, it's better to run than to be rubbed here. It immediately got up and ran at once, causing the little tall bird to fall to the ground.
When the little tall bird gets up again, he sees that his "mother" is running in front of it, and is it going to play the game of running again? Great, stilt birds love to run by nature, and this game is just right.
Then Wang Xingjiang saw that the dragon and the bird were circling around the fire again, and he couldn't help but sigh, this is really a happy morning.
