"How can this be? Didn't you just say that you were just going to give me some spiritual power? Mom, you liar, big liar!"

Zixiao's eyes were already slightly red, his throat was choked, his nose was closed one by one, and he kept repeating this sentence in his heart.

Zixiao, who was walking on the road, was in a trance all the time, and when he met an acquaintance, he didn't seem to see it, and he didn't even know how he got to the door.

"Zixiao, this bastard boy, ran out with the scroll early in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet, wait until he comes back to see how the old lady cleans him up!"

Listening to the familiar scolding in the courtyard, in the past, Zi Xiao would definitely run into the house with a smile and behave coquettishly at the phoenix, often at this time, the phoenix would be angry and funny, and he forgot the cruel words he had just said, and he went with a few words of laughter and scolding, but now, the familiar door is in front of him, Zi Xiao can't take half a step, but his eyes are getting more and more sour, and finally he is covered with a layer of fog.

"Bastard boy, why don't you come in when you come back?

After the phoenix finished cleaning the room, he thought to himself why Zi Xiao didn't go home when he had finished eating, could it be that he pestered the old man of the village chief to teach him spiritual arts?

Looking at the imposing mother, something finally overflowed in Zixiao's eyes, sliding to his mouth, with a hint of salty taste.

"Xiao'er, what's wrong with you? Is the old man from the village chief making things difficult for you again? Go, my mother will take you to him now. ”

The phoenix approached in front of Zi Xiao, only then did he discover Zi Xiao's abnormality, and when he saw the tears on Zi Xiao's face, his heart suddenly became soft, but the fire on his body did not decrease but increased, and he concluded that Zi Xiao was bullied by Lan Li, and strode forward to pull Zi Xiao to find Lan Li.

As soon as the phoenix's hand touched Zi Xiao's arm, Zi Xiao took a few steps backwards as if he had been electrocuted, lowering his head and not glancing at the person in front of him.

"Xiao'er?"

Seeing Zi Xiao's actions, Phoenix felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, presumably his son must have been greatly wronged outside, and his voice became softer.

Zi Xiao was still silent, the phoenix took a step forward, Zi Xiao took a step back, and didn't let the person in front of him approach.

"What the hell is going on, you are talking. ”

Phoenix was so anxious that she was about to cry, Zixiao's appearance made her feel how could she not be anxious, from childhood to adulthood, Zixiao followed Zihao to cause trouble outside and fled home, no matter whether it was an apology or an intimidation by force, Phoenix would get rid of the person who came to the door, and then closed the courtyard door and chased the two sons to beat them up.

Every time Zihao is beaten, he is like no one else, how to play and how to play, but Zixiao is like being greatly wronged, and he does not let the phoenix approach for a while, and he has a cold war with the phoenix for a while, no matter how the phoenix coaxes, Zixiao is not moved, just lowers his head like now, bites his lip and does not speak.

"I don't want any spiritual awakening!

At this point, Zi Xiao had already cried bitterly and threw himself into the arms of the person in front of him.

Hearing Zi Xiao's words, Phoenix seemed to understand something, although she was very angry at Lan Li's "treachery" behavior, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, her arms wrapped around Zi Xiao's arms, and one hand caressed Zi Xiao's back up and down, as if Zi Xiao had returned to the appearance of her childhood, how long had Zi Xiao not cried in her arms like this, Phoenix couldn't remember clearly, and only at this time did Phoenix show her mother's infinitely gentle side on her face.

"Silly Xiao'er, is there any difference between the spirit vein and mine?"

The phoenix comforted softly, but he could feel that Zixiao in his arms was sobbing even more.

"Mom. ”

Zi Xiao stayed in the phoenix's arms for more than a quarter of an hour, and had stopped sobbing, only then did he raise his head, look at himself with red eyes, the most amiable and lovely person, and softly called out the word "Mom".

At what point does a person change his mother's name to mother? It is probably the most helpless, the most confused, and the moment when he needs his mother's existence the most, and at this moment, the phoenix is here.

When did Zi Xiao change his name to "Mom", Phoenix was too lazy to think about it, it was no longer important to Phoenix, but now, hearing this familiar and attachment title again, Phoenix felt that everything he did was worth it, not to mention giving up such a thing as a spiritual vein, I am afraid that even if it is the moment when it is necessary to pay for his life, Phoenix will not hesitate.

"Okay Xiao'er, don't cry soon, don't you flick when a man has tears, what do you look like. ”

The phoenix touched Zixiao's head and blamed softly.

"You're lying to me, big, liar!"

Zixiao stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and his voice was still a little choked.

"How can you call it a lie? Isn't it to keep your good son from worrying about herself? Don't you see that my mother is okay now?"

The phoenix reached out to wipe away the remaining tears from the corners of Zi Xiao's eyes, but she didn't notice the tears that slipped on her beautiful face, and the warm light projected by a pair of beautiful eyes full of tenderness seemed to melt Zi Xiao entirely.

"But you ...... now"

Zi Xiao suddenly stopped when he said this, and the fog in his eyes had not yet faded, but it was covered with another layer.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, I'm going to cry again, as long as I can make Xiao'er happy, what is the spiritual vein?"

Phoenix originally wanted to comfort Xiao for a while, but the more he said this, the fog in Zixiao's eyes became heavier, and the sobbing became even worse, and he silently buried his head in his mother's bosom.

"It's okay, it's okay, why do you grow up and become more like a child?"

Although the phoenix said this, his face was full of spoiling.

Zi Xiao buried his head in Phoenix's arms, and was silent for a long time, only then did he calm down a little, and Phoenix breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect this incident to hit Zi Xiao so hard, and he didn't expect that his son, who has always been very strong, would also show such a fragile side.

"Mom, can you still recover your realm?"

Zi Xiao pursed his lips and looked into the eyes of the phoenix and asked in a low voice.

"Of course you can, don't forget that I'm a phoenix, your village chief and grandfather must have told you that my situation is not as bad as you think. ”

Phoenix said half-jokingly.

"You want to lie to me again. ”

Zi Xiao's face did not show the slightest bit of happiness, and he muttered quietly.

"How come? Mom promised you that she would never lie to Xiao'er again in the future, besides, I still have a spiritual fire now, but I'm just getting smaller." ”

Phoenix is completely coaxing a child's tone to talk to Zi Xiao again, but where is Zi Xiao still like a teenager who is about to become an adult? The more Zi Xiao is like this, the more Phoenix's motherhood is overflowing, but this process, Phoenix is extremely enjoyable.

"Really?"

There was a glimmer of light in Zixiao's eyes, and there was a little joy in his voice.

"Of course, okay, don't blame yourself anymore, this is my mother's voluntariness, just treat it as a gift for your 16th birthday, just be happy!"

The phoenix's fingers gently pressed Zixiao's forehead, and the action was very intimate, and Zixiao pursed his lips and smiled.

"You must be hungry after going out for so long, the meal is already ready, if you come back later, it will be cold, hurry into the house to wash and eat." ”

Zi Xiao let the phoenix pull him into the door, and his heart was warm......

Flame Empire, General's Palace

"Mother, what do you see I've found?"

It was night, and the General's Mansion had just quieted down, but it was broken by the young man's voice.

Mei Niang raised her eyes and saw her little son who pushed the door in with an excited face, and a touching smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"What good things have Xiao'er found again?"

Ling Xiao held an ancient book in his hand, and ran to Mei Niang excitedly, his little face flushed.

"Is there still a technique of spiritual vein grafting in this world?"

Ling Xiao looked at Mei Niang with a happy face and asked.

"What's so strange about this, the world is so big, there are no surprises, there are countless spiritual techniques created, and there are also spiritual techniques related to spiritual vein grafting, but the number is very rare. ”

Mei Niang looked at this son who gave her a little headache with a smile, since she began to remember, Xiao'er ran into the Tibetan Gong Pavilion every day and took out a book of exercises and ran to herself to teach him to read and write, but he learned a lot, but he also had a great interest in the exercises, and now it is more like a demon, and he stays in the Tibetan Gong Pavilion all day, and he has to send someone to call for food or something.

In this regard, Mei Niang was also very helpless, so she simply let him go, and it didn't hurt to know more about the exercises.

"I said, I've been rummaging through the Tibetan Gong Pavilion, and I haven't found any scrolls related to grafting spiritual veins. ”

Ling Xiao scratched his head and suddenly realized.

"Why did Xiao'er suddenly ask about this?"

Mei Niang's heart tightened, could it be that Xiao'er couldn't wait? The eldest and second spirit veins were awakened at the age of six, but Xiao'er was about to reach the coming-of-age ceremony, and the spirit veins still had no precursor to awakening, could it be that Cheng Xiao'er wanted to ......

"I don't know how long this ancient book has been in Lingli, but I didn't find it until today. ”

Ling Xiao stared at the ancient book in his hand and said with curiosity.

"Xiao'er, don't you want to have a spiritual vein yourself?"

Mei Niang asked the question she wanted to ask the most.

"Yes, of course I do, but the eldest brother and the second brother are already so powerful, even if I awaken the spiritual vein, I can't catch up with them now. But no matter how good they are, their understanding of spiritual magic can't compare to mine. ”

Zi Xiao said a little proudly.

"There has to be one aspect that is better than the brothers, so that my father will not be too disappointed. ”

Ling Xiao said in his heart.

"Even if your spiritual veins are not awakened, there is nothing, and the son I gave birth to must have one with me. ”

Mei Niang said half-jokingly. Maybe because Ling Xiao is the eldest in the family, Mei Niang loves this little son the most, which makes Ling Fei and Ling Yun jealous.

"That's right, I just want to be a powerful spirit master like my mother!"
