What is the taste of that broken fish......

I searched through the entire Asgard Palace, but I couldn't find any fish food at all. To be precise, there is simply no food to eat. The people here have long stopped eating the fireworks of the world, and all they crave is essence.

While looking around, he stumbled upon a jar under a cherry blossom tree.

The jar actually spoke: "Hey, little brother over there, come on, come on, do you know the scales of the koi?" The noble scales of the carp, the treasure of the royal family...... I'm optimistic about you, do you want to listen to me tell me a secret? I'm going to tell you because I value you. ”

“…… What secret? ”

"Oh, do you want to listen? It's fantastic. So...... Present this bait to the Koi King. It's really a beautiful thing, but remember to avoid people's eyes and ears, and don't let the nobles in the palace know about it. If the mission is done well, I will naturally have some secret treasures here to reward you. Come, take it, and give it to the Koi King. Oh alive ......"

The wooden lid on the broken jar was removed, and a bony claw stretched out. Looking at this shape, it is clear that the jar is a fish-lipped monster. The paw handed out a packet of fish food. Yellow-green, like some kind of fruit, covered with fluff. It's hard to eat, but do fish really like it? All in all suspicious.

Well, I always feel that the atmosphere is a little strange.

Nan Xiao kicked over the jar, and a ...... fell out of it Monster. The upper body is a fish-lip monster, and the lower body is a fish.

The half-fishlip monster crawled on the ground, flapping its tail weakly. "Bold!" He cried out in horror, "How dare you do it to me? Dare? Where are the samurai? Warrior! O lord who guards you, and a noble man who guards this palace of origin! ”

Stupid guys. The samurai are long dead, and the nobles are dead, so you are probably the last.

This kind of thing is so disgusting, step forward and step on it, and stick it to death with a sword!

Killing the last fish-lipped monster to hide and getting a bag of fish food is really a double win.

Returning to the place where the fish were fed with the fish food, Saeki Lori was already impatiently waiting. "Feed the fish," she bounced, "let's feed the fish." ”

The bronze bell rang, the bell ~~bell ~~

In the blink of an eye, the waves cracked, and the huge koi jumped out of the water and opened its mouth.

Saeki threw out a handful of fish food. Although it is a large handful, it is not enough to stuff the teeth compared to the big mouth of the koi king. It's swallowed up.

"Hahaha!" Little Lori clapped her hands and laughed.

Such a clear laughter has not sounded in Asgard for a long time.

Feeding the carp king, the purple-coated fish-lipped monster standing next to him seemed to be very happy. "King of Fish...... It...... Glad...... Very good...... Very well......" he said in a coarse, slow tone, "here you go...... Reward ......"

From the slippery hand of the fish's skin, he took a piece of fish scales that shone like a jewel. The scales were the size of a palm, perhaps from the carp king's body, and they were very heavy and thick.

The koi king, who had swallowed the fish food, turned around and swam away and disappeared into the depths of the lake.

Saeki didn't seem to have had enough of it, and continued to ring the bell, wanting to call the fish to feed. However, no matter how much she knocked it, the Carp King never appeared again.

The purple-coated fish-lipped stranger said, "The king of fish...... Yes...... Gain weight...... Want...... Temperance ......"

That being said, forget it. Saeki carefully stowed away the rest of the fish food and prepared to feed it next time.

The three of them left the fish king's feeding place and headed towards the highest peak of the Immortal Palace.

Walk through the dark and gloomy sacrificial temple with a steep mountain peak behind it. The spring water continues to flow down the mountain and into the lake.

A steep stone path goes straight up, barely enough for two people to walk in parallel. This road must have been walked by no one for a long, long time, and the rocks that were built into the steps were gradually weathering. The scenery on both sides is extremely beautiful, with weeping cherry blossoms and flowing water. There are also one torii after another, reminding us that this is the boundary between man and God.

All the way to the top, they came across a simple stone house.

This is the Divine Domain, the highest point in the entire Reeda Country.

However, there is no Sakura Dragon.

Where the hell is Sakurayu?

There is a sarcophagus in the stone house, and a woman kneels in front of the sarcophagus. Her clothes are somewhat similar to those of the Asgard fish-lipped monsters, but the color is bright yellow, perhaps indicating that her status is extraordinary? She snuggled quietly into the sarcophagus, her expression gentle, as if she had fallen asleep.

Rin looked at the yellow-clothed witch and sighed softly: "She must be 'Ba', a female warrior who serves the son of Long Yin's 'Zhang'. It turned out that after the uncle gave up the power of Long Yin, they have been living in seclusion in the Divine Domain. Finally, her beloved died in old age, and she followed suit, how good it ......"

There is a futon in front of the sarcophagus, which looks like it is used for worship.

With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Nan Xiao had an idea. "Let's pay homage," he suggested, "I guess there must be some kind of ritual to see Sakura. ”

So the three of them folded their palms together in front of the shrine maiden and worshipped.

A miracle happened.

A fog poured out of the surroundings, getting thicker and thicker, and soon enveloped everything.

When the fog cleared, Nan Xiao found that they had come to the sky. Surrounded by a vast sea of clouds, as far as the eye can see.

Is this the true Divine Domain, the abode of Sakura Dragon?

The fog cleared, and a huge cherry tree appeared in front of me. A dragon is entrenched on it, and the lower body merges with the cherry tree. It hung its head as if it were sleeping. There is no doubt that it is Sakura.

Be sure to capture it to tears!

The three of them headed towards Sakura.

Halfway through, an obstructive monster suddenly emerged from the sea of clouds. The head looks like a dragon, but it has an ancient human face, wrinkled skin, and a slender and stiff body, a bit like a dragon, a bit like a human, and a bit like a tree.

There was more than one of them, armed with strange weapons, and they stood in front of Sakura Dragon without saying a word.

Nan Xiao didn't say a word, he pulled out his knife and slashed. I have already arrived at this place, and I will not stop until I reach my goal.

This monster is slow, it doesn't seem to be powerful, but there are quite a few of them, and they cut down one and another pops up, and it never stops.

In the end, Nan Xiao thought of a way, and when they gathered a lot, they suddenly pulled out the immortal slash and pushed it horizontally!

The black light of the immortal slash flashed, and all the little dragons were chopped into slag and turned into broken and dried cherry blossom petals.

However, more black dragonmen popped up. They don't attack, they just bow to the top of the cherry tree. As they continue to kowtow, the seemingly dead cherry trees come back to life. Petals are constantly popping up, blooming, and the petals in the air are flying like snow.

Huge dragon、Resurrection!

It stood tall on top of the cherry tree, looking down on Nanxiao indifferently, its claws drawing a strange giant sword from the void. The sword was transparent and clear, like the condensation of moonlight, with seven forks on it, and it was more like some kind of magic weapon than a weapon.
