"Huh? Me? Qianxue wiped the juice on her hands, and just wanted to explain her intentions, but the best person came over angrily: "You're the thief who stole my meat, aren't you?!" ”

"Uh......" Qianxue couldn't say that she wasn't, and the gravy on her mouth was still hanging.

"Well, there is an invasion of foreigners!" The people of the Night Owl Clan all stood up with a cheer, drew their knives, and shouted as if they were facing a great enemy.

Qianxue hurriedly dodged the sword attack, and complained bitterly: "I'm not the one who invaded!" Wait a minute, I've been wronged!! ”

But those people were annoyed, and they didn't listen to her explanation at all, even if Qianxue fell into a group attack, she could only rely on her ability to escape, and she couldn't fight back, which seemed a little powerless.

Suddenly, a grand palm force struck from outside the sky, and the battlefield was violently separated.

"Stop it!"

A person slowly descended from the high cliff, calming down everyone present.

"Help!!" Qian Xue saw the visitor sneaking behind him, and was all aggrieved: "I just ate a bite of their meat, and I was beaten by a group, and the hospitality of your night owl clan is really eye-opening!" ”

Ye Yuan looked at the sauce on her lips, her mind moved slightly, she raised her hand to wipe it off, and Qianxue shrank back in fright: "What are you doing so kindly all of a sudden?" ”

"King! This woman is not good, you must be the master of us, king! The person who caught up behind wanted to shout something, but when he saw the ambiguous behavior between the king and the woman, he stood on the spot at a loss.

"Didn't I just eat a piece of your meat?" Qianxue was very dissatisfied, this felt like she was some kind of vicious guy, which made people feel very unhappy.

"Okay, I've got it." Ye Yuan raised his hand to stop them from continuing to argue, and said, "Hugh's rudeness, this is my invited guest!" ”

"But!"

"Nothing, as she said, is this the hospitality of our Night Stalkers? Are so many people besieging a weak woman and bullying others? There was a slight sternness in Yeyuan's words, which silenced the people below and bowed their heads.

"I'm sorry, I'll deal with this matter, and I'll give you a satisfactory explanation." Yeyan turned to her.

Qianxue, who was grimacing at the guys who were still unconvinced, immediately retracted her arrogance and said gently: "How is this good? It's just a misunderstanding, and I'm not hurt, so it's okay to leave it at that. ”

Ye Yuan saw a few people at his feet covering their heads, whimpering when they were smashed, and paused for a moment: "Since you don't care, but they are also injured, I won't let them apologize to you." ”

Qianxue said generously: "Don't worry, I won't be unable to get along with the children." ”

Several of the people who were called children looked angry.

"Okay, you ...... Do you still eat it? Nightwish asked.

"Can you still eat it?" Qianxue looked at the unkind faces below and said.

Ye Yuan thought for a while, and instructed the people below, "Send a few portions of the roasted meat to my room." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people below became even more colorful, so that after Ye Yuan left with Qianxue, they had not recovered from the shock, and one of them poked the arm of the person next to him: "Where did the king just say to send the meat?" ”

"You ask me?" The people on the side were furious: "How do I know! ”

"Didn't you say to send it to the king's room?"

"Shhhh Don't let the nightingale know! ”

The night owls looked at each other, and then they all looked at a cave on a slightly high cliff, but found that at some point, the arrogant nightingale who did not want to socialize with others also woke up, and stood at the mouth of the cave, looking into the distance with a faint gaze, and everything that came to see everything.

The nightingale turned her gaze to them, and the Nightowls avoided it and scattered to do what they had to do.

Nightingale looked to the side, her hand sinking into the wall, and her fingernails were cleaved in several places.

She quietly took her fingers back, nails were as important to the night owls as wings, and the first thing she did when she woke up every day was to comb her feathers, more beautiful than any other clansman to be worthy of her day and night with flower dew and fragrant honey.

But today completely swept away all her interest.

"Where did this girl come from? How dare you take the lead under the nose of Sister Nightingale? ”

A dissatisfied voice came from behind, but the nightingale calmly put her fingers away and said, "What does this have to do with me? ”

"But didn't the king always know what you wanted? And the king is ...... to you."

"What is the king doing to me? It's all in the past, and now that I've moved out, there will be no more entanglements with the king, so don't talk about it anymore. ”

The voice behind felt the coldness in the nightingale's tone, so it also stopped in time, and the nightingale looked at the high cliff, recalling the memory of a long time ago.

At that time, she was the weakest of the Night Stalkers, and when they all gave birth to wings, she was slow to grow wings, and she was crying for it, and she was bullied by her people.

And one day, when she was hiding and crying in the wreckage of the god king, she met a gentle man.

It was the first time she had been able to get up close to a man without wings, the king of their night owl clan had no wings, but he was also followed by his people, and although sometimes, someone would challenge him for royal power, but none of them succeeded.

In her memory, the king was majestic and unapproachable, he lived alone on the top of a high cliff, but he did not live with his people, and the previous orders were issued from him, and no one dared to disobey them.

She also felt a sense of intimacy with the gentle man without wings, who stood in the cavern for a long time, caressing the wreckage, which was called the remains of the Temple, a vast ruin, swallowed up by the endless forest, and no one knew what it was.

The people of the Night Owl clan have lived here since ancient times, guarding this place, and the king will not let his people get close to him easily. And the nightingale has already made up his mind to die, and wants to die at the end of his life in this protected homeland.

She was worried that she would be discovered, but she saw the wingless man walk straight in, and at first she thought it was an intruder, but she saw him caressing the mottled wall, and his expression was so sad.

This sadness touched her. She seemed to be able to see that the person's fragility and loneliness had taken root in the silent wind, and gradually brewed into great pain.

This feeling made her empathize, and the feeling of being despised and disgusted all the time made her know how terrible it was to be alone when she was alone, and she was not afraid of death now, and no one cared what would happen to her when she died, and what was she afraid to do now?

So the nightingale stepped forward and saw that the man turned around in some surprise, as if he was about to turn away, but she grabbed his clothes: "I won't tell the clansmen that you came here, don't worry, big brother." ”

The figure paused slightly, and turned to look at her: "Don't you know who I am?" ”

She shook her head seriously: "I'm just a wingless night owl clansman, I don't get treated by them at all in the clan, and I don't know many people, let alone big brother, you're a foreigner, right?" ”

The man paused and said, "Yes, no." ”

"What does that mean?"

"You'll find out later."

The man: "But you let me go first and tell me why you came back here." ”

"I should ask you about this first, right? This is our guarded home, and no strangers are allowed to approach it. Brother, it's better for you to leave early, if someone else finds out, I won't be able to protect you. ”

The nightingale's sincerity seemed to impress the man's ears and nose a little. He smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'm here, I'll leave when they come." ”

"Big brother, what are you doing here? Although we are the ones who guard this place, I can tell you that there is nothing here other than these ruins, and there are no treasures or anything like that, so there is no use for you to come here, big brother. ”

"Do you think I'm here looking for money?" The man said with a slight squint.

"Aren't you?" Nightingale tilted her head curiously: "People outside always think that we have countless treasures buried here, so there are many people who are willing to cross that desert to come here, brother, you don't come to hunt for treasures, you can pass through that desert, but why?" ”

"Is this ......," the man touched his chin and said, "You can revisit my old place." ”

"Big brother, you used to live here? But ...... Nightingale was already a little confused, and there was no one here except for the Night Stalkers, who were the King Snakes, and she looked at his feet and looked at them carefully.

"Don't worry, I'm not from the King Snake Clan." The man seemed to see what she was thinking, and chuckled.

"Huh? This ......"

He didn't want the nightingale to think about anything anymore, so he tapped the tip of her nose: "You can be here when I used to be." I just want to reminisce about the old people, if the identity is exposed, it will be less mysterious, so don't ask any more. ”

"As long as you swear not to do anything bad to my people, I won't ask." The nightingale still has its own bottom line.

"I can swear. I'm not going to do anything to the Night Stalkers. The man really agreed with her words, and then smiled: "You just said bad things about your people, but now you are defending your people again." ”

"They treat me badly, and they are my family." When the nightingale thought of this, she felt a little aggrieved: "As long as I grow wings." It's the same as them. ”

"Your wings? Why hasn't it grown yet? The man stroked his chin and looked at her and said, "You turn around." ”
