Chapter 080: The Birthmark of the Golden-crowned Black-tailed Frog
At midnight when Yuan Xunshuang was driven out of the General's Mansion by the county lord of Daizhen, it snowed heavily all night, resulting in that night, which was the coldest night in the history of the Liansheng Kingdom.
Yuan Xunshuang, who was so thin that he almost didn't wear the same body, walked alone on the white snow, and the hot breath he just exhaled would be frozen into ice ballast in an instant, and then blown away by the swishing cold wind.
At only twelve years old, she is really cold and helpless, and she doesn't know where to go.
She thinks about her mother and father, and she also hates the vicious Daizhen County Lord.
However, the weather is so cold that even the mind can freeze, and even the simplest thoughts have become a luxury.
Whenever she felt particularly cold, she would take a look at the birthmark in the palm of her hand, and then rub her hands back and forth, and after a while, the birthmark became clearer and clearer, and she would feel much warmer on her body, as if she was being held in her father's arms again.
The reason why when she sees this birthmark, Yuan Xunshuang will think of her father and feel warm, that is because her father also has such a birthmark in the palm of his hand, whenever she is held in her father's arms and feels very happy and warm, the birthmark in her and her father's palm will become clear inexplicably.
It was also her father who told her that if her father was not by her side in the future, she would try to rub this birthmark hard, and she would be able to feel her father.
She also once asked her father why only the two of them had this kind of birthmark on their palms, but her mother did not. And then why does this birthmark look so much like a frog?
Her father said that now she was too young, and when she became an adult, he would naturally tell her everything. just specially told her that this is not an ordinary frog, it is a royal family in the frog class, named the golden-crowned black-tailed frog.
She also said that if one day in the future, if she has the opportunity to meet someone with the same birthmark on her palm, she will show the birthmark on her palm to the other party, and the other party will definitely treat her like a relative, and she can trust the other party 100%.
As for the specific reason, just ask the other party directly when the time comes.
She was too young to understand what her father's words meant, so she didn't take it to heart. The only thing I remember is that if I rub this birthmark hard, I can feel the warmth of my father.
So when she was very young, every time her father went out to fight, Yuan Xunshuang would use this special way to realize her wish to be held in her father's arms. Every time she saw that birthmark become very clear, she would close her eyes, and then she would feel very warm, really like she was in her father's arms.
However, this warmth was short-lived after all, and she was so cold and hungry and tired that she was so tired that she had no strength to rub her hands hard, and she didn't know what else to do except walk forward in a daze against the wind and snow.
She just walked aimlessly, walking, and finally lost consciousness completely after many hallucinations appeared in front of her eyes.
Before she lost consciousness, she seemed to see the birthmark on her palm, which emitted a strange light......
Not long after she fell to the ground, a huge vulture suddenly appeared, slowly flew to her side, and after flying around her glowing palm three times, it stretched out its giant claws, gently grabbed Yuan Xunshuang, flapped its wings a few times, flew up, and soon disappeared into the night......
Not long after the vulture flew away, a team of guards ran over with torches, glanced at the position where Yuan Xunshuang had fallen before, and then looked at the sky, several guards looked at each other, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
"Big brother, what should I do? This generation of the real county lord told us to quietly follow the eldest lady, once it was confirmed that she was frozen to death, he carried the body back, and said to the outside world that she had lost her mind, and she ran out in the middle of the night and froze to death. Outsiders in such a province gossip, saying that our real county lord can't tolerate a concubine in his eyes. But now that we've lost her, how can we go back to the errand? ”
One of the guards asked a man who looked like a leader, somewhat helplessly.
"Listen, when I returned to the mansion in a while, the lord of Daizhen asked, and said that this little girl had frozen to death, and just when we wanted to come and carry the corpse, we were taken away by a vulture. Lord Daizhen shouldn't blame us for doing things badly, do you think, we can't fly if there are many of us? How can you snatch the corpse from the vulture! Besides, if this little girl falls into the vulture's mouth, even if she doesn't die, she will only die even worse. Let's go, go home. ”
The leader-like man pondered for a moment and commanded.
"Good! Just do what the big brother says! ”
"Let's go. It's a cold day! It's better to go back to the fire early to warm up! ”
"Hey, eldest lady, it's not that we are ruthless, who made you offend Lord Daizhen? We are also under orders, don't you resent our brothers? ”
"Yes, eldest lady, we are all young and old, and we don't dare to offend the county lord Daizhen! Please bear with me! ”
Several guards listened to the leader's words, and they all nodded yes, and while whispering, they hurried towards the general's mansion with the leader.
Two of the guards walked with guilt on their faces to the sky, as if they were repenting of their indifference and ruthlessness.
……
In a dense forest on the outskirts of the Imperial City of the Lotus Kingdom, a vulture circled three times, saw a gap, flew down, and after accurately entering the gap in the dense forest, came to a natural lotus pond of about 100 zhang, and gently put a little girl in her paws on top of a very large water lily.
This vulture is naturally the big bird that captured Yuan Xunshuang just now, and at this moment, Yuan Xunshuang, who was already frozen, was lying on the water lily and completely unconscious.
The light from the birthmark in her palm grew brighter and brighter, so that the birthmark gradually became a very clear pattern, and this pattern was actually a small animal that looked like a frog.
After seeing the birthmark pattern in the hearts of Yuan Xun's hands, the vulture excitedly raised his head to the sky and chirped three times, only to see that the originally calm water surface of the lotus pond suddenly appeared countless bubbles, and with more and more bubbles, countless black shadows swam up quickly from the bottom of the water.
Not long after, dense small frog-like animals surfaced and gathered around the water lilies where Yuan Xunshuang was lying, staring curiously at her while "croaking" non-stop.
These frog-like creatures have a lotus-like golden bump on their foreheads, emerald green on their bodies, and their four small paws are golden, as well as a small black tail.
"Boom la la ......"
Just as these strange frogs surrounded Yuan Xunshuang, a larger bubble suddenly appeared on the surface of the water, and then, a frog much larger than the previous frogs surfaced, and its size was almost the same size as Yuan Xunshuang lying on the water lily.
Suddenly, the other frogs closed their mouths and silently stood by the water lily, and deliberately leaned forward in the water, as if they were worshipping the huge frog.
Obviously, this frog is clearly the king of this group of strange animals, and the golden lotus flower on its head has completely evolved into a lotus-shaped golden crown.
When she saw the frozen Yuan Xunshuang on the water lily and the glowing pattern in her palm, the huge frog jumped up and landed steadily on the water lily.
Then the huge frog's body began to slowly deform, and gradually transformed into a very beautiful young girl, wearing a golden crown on her head, like a queen.
The moment she changed back to her original form, she hurriedly lay down beside Yuan Xunshuang, carefully looked at Yuan Xunshuang's appearance for a while, and instantly became a little excited.
Then he spread out his palm and took a look, it turned out that in her palm, there was also a birthmark exactly the same as Yuan Xunshuang.
After that, she picked up Yuan Xun's small hand with a glowing birthmark on his palms, and gently bit a small hole with her mouth on her fingertips, dripping a drop of blood on the birthmark on Yuan Xun's palms, and a magical scene appeared......
I saw that the light on the birthmark on Yuan Xun's palms turned into countless small points of light, flew into the air, and gradually condensed into a man's head, which glanced at this queen-like young girl affectionately, and said softly:
"Sister Wang, if one day, you can see me in this way, then the girl in front of you is my daughter and your own niece. If she was in danger at that time, or even dying, it means that something happened to me, I should have died on the battlefield, and I was no longer able to take care of and protect her. Then you must help me save her, take care of her, and tell her everything about me as it is. Then send her to a village as remote as possible to live in seclusion, let her live as an ordinary person, and then you can only watch her creation, if you can marry a good man, it is enough to live this life in peace. Remember, after all, she grew up like a human since she was a child, don't force her to be like you, become a golden-crowned black-tailed frog, live in a pool all year round, and live the rest of her life, this kind of life is not suitable for her. ”
After the man said this, the avatar quickly dimmed, and it didn't take long for it to disappear completely.
Subsequently, the birthmark on Yuan Xun's palms also returned to its original state, not only did the light lose its brilliance, but even the pattern changed back to its original blurred appearance.
After seeing the man's avatar appear and listening to the other party's words, this queen-like girl threw herself on Yuan Xunshuang and cried, crying and saying:
"Woo...... Brother Wang! Rest assured, I will definitely revive your daughter and send her to a place of absolute safety to start a new life. I'm not going to force her to do something she doesn't like. After all, she is my only relative in this world. Brother Wang, where are you? Are you really dead? Is it really worth it to give up the throne in order to marry a mortal woman, and the angry father and king cut ties with you? Woohoo......"
