Chapter Ninety-Eight: The King's Afflictions
"What is your name, child?" asked the old king.
"I ...... My name is Lu Qi!" Lu Qi replied a little nervously.
The old king did the same to Lu Qi, and it was only then that he realized that it turned out to be a kind of etiquette.
After a while, the king raised his head, took two steps back, and shouted, "Lu Qi, our great hero!"
"Great hero!" Lu Qi ......" the rare beasts shouted again, this time, they were witnessing Lu Qi's desperate battle.
Odysseus leaned over and said in Lu Qi's ear: "This is the highest etiquette of the royal family, the royal family never bows to anyone, because my clan has always been arrogant, and the tip of the horn is the highest place in our body, if we bow to you, it is to show true respect for you." ”
"Oh!" Lu Qi suddenly realized, and then said again, "But I've never seen you arrogant?"
"Maybe it's because I've been living in a civilian area! Odysseus said with a smile.
After a while, at the king's signal, Lu Qi and Odysseus both stood up. The king had his men fetch a cage and a chain, and after tying him with chains, he put him in the cage.
As the sky gradually darkened, the king stood on the high platform and said, "People, in order to express our gratitude, let's hold a banquet for Lu Qi!"
"Good ......"
The king's proposal was very much agreed by the beasts, and after the disbandment, the beasts all went to look for food, and there was another rumbling sound
"Wow! Great, delicious again. As soon as Lu Qi heard the banquet, he immediately clapped his hands, very excited, since he came here, he fell in love with the fish here, especially the whole piece of fish and meat, it was really enjoyable.
The old king walked to the palace, and at the same time took Odejiuji with him, the blood on his body had dried up, and he had not yet come to his senses at this time, although Lu Qi's attack failed to hurt his life, but the pain of flesh and skin was also unbearable.
"Lu Qi, from now on, you will live in the palace with your third brother!" said Odyssdine as he walked up to Lu Qi.
After Lu Qi turned his head to look at Odysseus, he turned his head to Odysseus and said, "Okay!"
After that, with Odyssine into the palace, the rare beast can have its own house, Lu Qi guessed that it was built with the help of the human hero a thousand years ago, Lu Qi quickly overturned his previous idea, it may be related to that hero, but not all, many rare beasts here can be humanized, can stand like humans, and do the same things as humans.
Orangutans, monkeys, apes and other rare beasts are naturally not to be mentioned, but the rare beast wolf, which Lu Qi called Uncle Wolf, can stand up.
After a while, I walked into the palace, and although the so-called palace was large enough, the decoration inside was very simple, the floor was wooden, and the walls were inlaid with so many glowing stones, from which the night was lit.
Although the palace is a little more than an ordinary human house, in the case of Treasure Beast Island, it is a place where only royalty can live. According to the same architecture as humans, there are many houses in the palace, but there are no doors.
"Ahem!"
There was a coughing sound not far ahead, and when I walked forward, I realized that it was the king's room, which was not very wide and convenient, and the bed was composed of countless pebble-shaped stones, and these pebbles were connected with some special viscous agents, and the shape seemed to be a square bed, and the bed was covered with a thick layer of giant leaves, after all, the stones were relatively hard and uneven, and the mattress made of leaves would be panicked.
The old king lay down on the bed to rest, and Odysseus looked at his elderly father, and felt a little unbearable, and only continued to walk forward under the impetus of Odyssine.
"Father mentions you occasionally," Odyssteen began, "but every time it is sad, because it reminds us of our mother." ”
"Why do you think of our mother when you mention it?" asked Odysseus, a little confused.
"Because, after the mother gave birth to you, she has passed away, the father loves the mother very much, its death, when the father is sad, and you are born with a special color, all the ominous beasts that will be judged to be the future will bring disaster to the country, send you out of the palace, the father is not that he does not love you, but he can't love you, Uncle Ma, who raised you, is a good friend of the father, and the father constantly asks you to take good care of you. ”
After listening to Odyssten's words, I finally understood why my parents were so "ruthless" and would rather abandon their own flesh and blood.
Odysseus turned around and walked to the old king's room, and called weakly, "Father......"
The old king, when he opened his eyes, looked at Odysseus, and said kindly, "Son, you have called me at last! Don't you hate me?"
Odysseus shook his head, walked over to the old king, put his head on his shoulder, and said, "You are my father and the king of this country, and I can understand your distress. ”
"Ah!" said the old king, with a sigh, "I have lost a bad son, but I have returned a good son, and it seems that the gods still favor me." ”
Odysseus slowly raised his head, and the old king also turned his head and said to Odyssteen, "Have you arranged a room for Lu Qi?"
"Well, right away!" Odyssteen replied simply, and then said to Lu Qi, "Lu Qi, third brother, let's go!"
But he quickly adjusted back, took a deep breath, and said, "Hmm!"
In fact, it is very similar to what happened to Odejiuji, but the result is different, the king will execute his eldest son tomorrow in order to protect the country, and it is also for the sake of the country, so he sent the younger son away.
After a while, he came to the door of another room, which was similar in structure to the king's room, and even the bed was almost identical.
Lu Qi immediately ran to the bed and lay down, which made the two Odd brothers look a little dumbfounded, how tired he was......
"Let him rest first!Third brother, your room is next door. Odysstine said.
"Hmm!"
After Odysseus answered, Odyssteen said hello and walked outside.
Odysseus walked up to Lu Qi and quietly looked at him in front of him.
"Odysseus, hurry up and rest with me!" Lu Qi moved his body and said.
Odysseus felt a little flattered, "Is this okay?"
"Hehe, I just lack a pillow, if you come up, I can lean on you!" Lu Qi said with a smile, "Come up!"
