Chapter 227: Empty Core
The outstretched tentacles wrapped Tie Luo's entire body, leaving him powerless to resist.
Then, the giant octopus slowly dragged him into the aquatic grass, his eyes seemed to be closed, and his mouth was slightly open, allowing oxygen to escape from his mouth.
At this moment, a torrent slid past him, and he swept away, it was a hot lizard.
I saw the hot lizard bite the giant octopus and tear it frantically, and the blue blood spread from the hot lizard's mouth into the water.
When the hot lizard was sure that the giant octopus was dead, he swallowed it in one gulp, and then pulled Tie Luo ashore as soon as possible.
"Do you want to... Kill me!"
Exhausted, Tieluo coughed up the water that had choked in his throat and collapsed on the grass.
The hot lizard said: "Look at your little bit of interest, isn't it just acting as a bait?"
Tie Luo didn't want to argue with it, and turned his head sideways, his face pale as paper, and he kept gasping.
After relieving himself for a while, Tie Luo asked, "By the way, what do you want to salvage? Why don't you save me at the expense of provoking Heihe Leopard?" .. ”
The hot lizard was silent at first, glanced at Tie Luo, and recalled: "It's been a long time, I don't know if it was more than two hundred years ago, or more than three hundred years ago, it was a young man in his early twenties, I forgot what his name was, or he didn't tell me at all." ”
"He's about the same as you, skinny, and at that time I didn't have my own territory, and I was living a life of displacement...
"Little lizard, you are really unlucky, a few blood-level snakes have bullied you into this way. The young man stroked the scar of the lizard.
The young man said in a high-spirited manner: "In the future, I will cover you, and I dare to guarantee that no beast will touch you again." ”
At that time, the body size of the hot lizard was similar to that of the youth, and it may only be at the peak of the Heavenly Rank, and the realm of the young man seemed to have reached the peak of the Blood Rank.
The young man took his young lizard to the lake and asked, "Do you know how to fish?"
The hot lizard looked at the young man in a daze, shaking his head.
Without saying a word, the young man jumped into the lake with all his strength and shouted at the lizard: "Come down, I will teach you, in the future, if you can't catch prey to eat, come here to fish and eat, at least you won't be hungry." ”
The young man was very good at water, he could easily dive into the depths of the lake, and shuttle freely among the dense water and grass, and any fish he aimed at could not escape his palm.
Every time he landed, he caught a large basket of fish and shrimp, while the hot lizard always caught nothing.
"Little lizard, you have to remember that you are a hunter, and the criteria for becoming a hunter are nothing more than fearlessness and ambition, and only if you truly understand these two principles, you will become a good hunter in order to survive on this barren island. ”
They are always inseparable, from dawn to sunset, from one side of the island to the other.
"Little lizard, you have to make good use of your talent, the hot lizard is the stronger existence of the five rank long-cherished beasts, but I can't see any shadow of the beast in you at all, I really wonder if the excellent genes of your family have not been inherited from you. ”
As soon as the young man finished speaking, the hot lizard swept towards him with a heavy tail, and he did not dodge or dodge, grabbed the thick tail of the hot lizard, and then shook it hard, throwing the whole body of the hot lizard out.
"Yo, I'm still angry. ”
For some reason, the young man's words seemed to poke the wound in the lizard's heart, and it suddenly became very depressed, and ran desperately towards the deep forest of the island.
"Little lizard!"
The young man tried to stop the lizard, but the lizard still irrationally rushed into the deep forest.
What was there, the young man knew very well, but he had to take care of the lizard's safety.
As expected, he followed.
But what awaited him was beyond his expectations.
"Little lizard, you... . . .
"I've been waiting for a long time. "The father of the little hot lizard who spoke, the realm of the middle and late stages of the Holy Order.
The little lizard deliberately avoided the young man's eyes, it really didn't dare to look at the young man's eyes, and kept his head down, his eyes full of apology and innocence.
Hearing this, Tie Luo was shocked, "You betrayed him?"
The hot lizard lowered his head, and the look in his eyes seemed to reappear in that moment, "Yes, I betrayed him." ”
Its tone was flat, but it didn't deliberately suppress its emotions, it smiled lightly, but deeper in the smile was endless remorse.
"What happened?" Tie Luo asked urgently.
"Later, my father killed him. ”
Tie Luo's brows furrowed, "Why? Why did your father kill him?"
"He is not a master in the real sense, he only has a dream, but no sub-dream, I don't know how he did it, but he does not have a sub-dream, but the core and power of the dream really exist. ”
"Only the core, no sub-dreams?" For Tie Luo, this is definitely a fantasy.
"My father said that he approached me so that I could forcibly cross into the empty core of his body, and then become his son. ”
Tie Luo was surprised: "So, your father chose to kill him for your freedom?"
"You can think so. ”
"Then what did you save me from the Black Panther to salvage?"
"I don't know, but I must have left something at that moment, but I don't know exactly what it was. ”
Tie Luo lowered his head and let out a sullen laugh, "At that moment, what you left behind was his trust in you, his longing for you. ”
"After two or three hundred years, I still can't forget the look in his eyes at that moment, I obviously made the right choice, but the consequences are no different from the wrong choice, I have never hurt me, I defend me everywhere, protect me, but in the end it is me... Pushed him into the abyss of hell. ”
"Do you feel indebted to him?" Tie Luo asked, stunned for a moment.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have saved you. ”
"Saving me doesn't make up for your sins, does it?"
"At least it will make me feel better, and gradually, the memories of him in my mind will dissipate with the passage of time. ”
"Aren't lizards cold-blooded? ”
"I'm a hot lizard, and I think blood should be hot too. ”
They all smiled in unison, as if they were old friends, and fell asleep on the low grass, the sun shining on Tieluo's body, baking his otherwise soaked clothes.
The hot lizard told the things that were trapped in his heart, and it would be more or less comfortable.
The blood sacrifice was summoned again, and as soon as he came out of Tieluo's Zhihai, he gave him a blank look, and then slipped to the side of the hot lizard.
"Blood sacrifice, go fishing in the lake, I'm hungry. "Tie Luo deliberately found fault.
"Won't you go on your own?" said the hot lizard on the side of the Blood Sacrifice.
"Zishu serving the host is a matter of course, you are an outsider, no, you are an outer beast, what are you talking about here. ”
"Don't forget, this lake is mine. ”
The words of the hot lizard made Tie Luo shut his mouth directly, life is outside, you have to know how to be measured.
