Su Ming woke up the next day, and his body was constantly repairing itself during the coma. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He sat up and saw Lynn lying on the bed next to him, his eyes closed and his breath faint, not at all wanting to wake up.
"Only you can save her. ”
Following the prestige, Su Ming saw a blonde woman leaning against the door at some point, and her face was somewhat similar to Lynn's.
"Are you ......" Su Ming's voice was a little hoarse, obviously yelling too much yesterday.
"I'm her mother, Lin Xia. Lin Xia walked in and sat on the chair, "Only you can save her now." ”
"Me?" Su Ming just woke up, his mind was still a little dull, "How to save it?"
Lin Xia pointed to the blue orb on Su Ming's neck and said, "Use this." ”
Su Ming looked down at the blue orb, his eyes full of doubts.
Lin Xia looked at Su Ming's reaction, "It seems that you don't know anything about it, can you tell me where you got it first?"
"Hmm...... My godmother said that when she picked me up in the mountains, she saw this bead stuffed in my swaddling clothes, probably left for me by my parents. ”
Lin Xia thought for a while and said, "This bead is called the Seven Houses Pearl. ”
"Seven Pearls?"
"Yes, there are four of them, each with a different purpose, and yours can save Lynn. ”
Lin Xia didn't say any more, observing Su Ming's reaction, and after seeing that he was still confused, he asked an irrelevant question: "Okay, what's your favorite fairy tale?"
Fairy tales?
Su Ming was puzzled and still replied, "Snow White and the seven dwarfs." ”
Lin Xia's eyebrows furrowed, what kind of fairy tale is this, why haven't I heard it?
Su Ming suddenly reacted that this fairy tale was not from this world, but this bead was also brought by him from there.
"Have you heard of the old man and the sea?"
"Isn't that a novel?"
"What about the farmer and the snake?"
"Isn't that a fable?"
Lin Xia gave up and compromised: "Okay, then I'll tell you something related to your Seven Pearls." ”
"Legend has it that the world was dark, and when the ravens came, they were dissatisfied with the difficulty of seeing in the darkness. At that time, another part of the world lived an old man and his daughter. They have a garden with a river and fish, shrimp and aquatic plants, meandering and nourishing the creatures in the garden. But the old man could not appreciate its beauty.
One day, while wandering around, Raven overheard the old man muttering to himself, muttering about one of his boxes. The raven heard him say that there were several small boxes in the box, and the innermost box contained all the light in the world. Raven was so impressed that he decided to steal the box.
But the raven had no way into the old man's house, so he waited nearby, and then the old man's daughter came to the brook to drink, and the raven became a leaf in the water and entered the woman's belly, and took on the form of a baby, and acted as the son of the woman.
He was born with a strange appearance, half-human, half-bird, but his appearance was hidden in the darkness. The raven, who had turned into a baby, was playing with the box, first first, then the second, and finally pestering his grandfather to open the innermost box and let him play with the beads of light inside. As soon as he got the bead, he turned back into a raven and took it with his beak. The raven flew in the air, and the beads of light in their mouths overflowed and sprinkled all over the earth.
The old man's daughter was very angry, so she sent an eagle to chase after her. The raven fled, and from time to time a few rays of light fell to the ground, scattered, and then jumped and bounced into the sky, turning into a sky full of stars. The raven was unfortunately pecked to death by the eagle, and the light beads were brought back.
The old man was not angry in the slightest, and when he saw the beauty of the garden, he was grateful to the ravens for bringing light into the world. So the old man gave the dead raven the pearl of light, and when the raven got it, he was reborn from the fire, and the black feathers burned and turned into bright red feathers, which was very beautiful. ”
"The Old Man and the Raven" is a well-known fairy tale in this world, and no one takes it seriously.
Su Ming faintly had a guess that the light bead in this fairy tale was the Seven Houses Pearl.
"You mean ......"
"That's right. Without waiting for Su Ming to finish speaking, Lin Xia directly affirmed.
"But isn't this a fairy tale?" Su Ming still couldn't believe it.
Lin Xia sneered, "How do you think fairy tales came about? Even the most incredible stories have their origins. However, the Seven Houses contain great energy, and in case some wicked people try to get it, we can only dilute it into a fairy tale that is contrary to the history and beliefs of mankind for thousands of years, so that no one will believe in it. ”
"You guys?"
"Yes, the Hunters' Federation has had the ultimate goal of protecting humanity since its inception, and if anyone learns of the existence of the Seven Pearls, it is bound to cause panic and bring about changes in the war between kingdoms. So in the fairy tales, it is only said that the pearl of light is not the pearl of the seven, and there are three other fairy tales corresponding to the pearl of the seven. The truth is known to only a very small number of people, and I want you to keep it a secret, and of course, it's for your own safety. ”
Su Ming has refreshed his three views again and again since he came to this world, so he accepted the matter of the Seven Pearls very calmly.
He exhaled and asked, "This Seven Pearls can only be used by me now, right?" Otherwise, Lin Xia could have used the Seven Pearls to save his daughter by himself.
"Yes, your will is connected to it, and only you can use its energy. It's also very simple to cut this connection, just kill you, and the Seven Jewels will choose a new owner. ”
Kill me? Su Ming didn't want to be hunted down and killed because of his guilt.
So he asked, "Then can I give the Seven Pearls to others?"
Lin Xia frowned when she heard this, thinking to herself why this kid was so unconscious, she was a little angry, stood up and said, "No, just as there will not be two summers in a year, there will only be one master for Qisuzhu." Only if you die can you actively cut off the connection. Everyone who has been chosen by the Seven Jewels must take responsibility for the defense of humanity, and if you are cowardly and afraid of death, you will join the evil forces......"
Her body suddenly burst out with powerful vitality, and Su Ming's will suddenly collapsed, feeling as if she was in a cold place, and her whole body trembled.
"I want you to think it through. ”
Lin Xia felt better as soon as he left Su Ming, this feeling was so terrifying, as if the other party would fall if he had a thought.

"Did you make it clear?" Xiao Lang leaned back on the sofa.
Lin Xia walked over and sat down, held his forehead and said, "I have no ambitions, and I don't have any consciousness at all." Can you believe it? He hadn't even heard a fairy tale, and I wonder if he had a childhood. It seemed that he didn't know anything about the crisis he was in, and the use of his vitality was a mess, so he had to send him to Yang Qi to study. ”
Xiao Lang sat on the sofa and stiffened, this was the most Lin Xia said to him at one time, it seems that this kid really made Lin Xia angry.
