Chapter 42: The Dependents
It's a frenetic celebration of jubilation, accompanied by shouts and cheers, barrels of good wine, said to be made from the sap of a plant called "candle cactus" in the Black Rock Desert. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The dwarves uncorked the barrel and poured the reddish mellow liquor into a large cup made of calcite, making Doro's eyes straighten.
"Master, come and taste the ruby wine unique to our Black Rock Clan! You have drunk the first glass, and you want to drink the second glass!"
The dwarf who came here with Xia Yu filled a large glass of wine and respectfully delivered it to Xia Yu, and all the dwarves stopped the hustle and bustle, looking at Xia Yu with anticipation in their eyes, as if they were all waiting to see Xia Yu's reaction after drinking the wine.
Although Xia Yu had never drunk alcohol, he smelled the intoxicating aroma of "ruby wine", raised his neck and drank it all!
In his mouth, Xia Yu tasted a strong natural sweetness, which immediately burst into his mouth, and the spicy and unique aroma of wine occupied every taste bud on his tongue. When Xia Yu swallowed them all, a fiery and warm feeling in his stomach suddenly spread throughout his body, sweeping away the exhaustion and coldness in his body.
"Good wine!
The dwarves erupted in enthusiastic cheers, and nothing made them happier than the fact that such a distinguished guest enjoyed the wine they made.
The others joined in the feast, and soon mingled with the dwarves, dancing merrily around the campfire. Even Mu Yun secretly tasted two bites while Xia Yu was not paying attention, and after a while, his cheeks were red like ripe apples.
"By the way, what's your name. ”
After three rounds of drinking, Xia Yu was already a little drunk, and in the midst of the noise, he looked at the dwarf who had been pouring him wine from beginning to end and asked.
"We don't have names, and our ancestors who have names have long since died. The dwarf scratched his head embarrassedly and filled Xia Yu with a large cup.
"Everybody should have a name!" Xia Yu looked at the dwarf, then patted him on the shoulder, "That's it, your brown beard is really impressive, I'll call you 'Brownbeard'." ”
When the dwarf heard Xia Yu's words, the cup in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap", and the red wine spilled all over the ground.
"Do you really want to call me 'Brownbeard'? is that the name you gave me?"
The dwarf's voice was so loud that when the other dwarves heard this exclamation, they all showed expressions as if they had seen ghosts, and the whole cave was so quiet that they could hear a pin falling on the ground.
Broken!
Only then did Sif react, and she hurriedly flew towards Xia Yu, trying to stop his next words.
"Yes!" However, Xia Yu was completely unaware of this unnatural atmosphere, "From today onwards, you will be called Brownbeard!"
"Oh my God! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Master!"
The dwarf who had just been given the name "Brownbeard" suddenly burst into tears, and his legs were weak and gave Xia Yu a five-body bow.
"Don't, hurry up, isn't it just a name......"
When Xia Yu said this, he suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and he didn't know anything when he leaned back.
............
I don't know how long it took for Xia Yu to wake up from his slumber, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Sif's angry eyes.
"What's wrong with me?"
Xia Yu rubbed his heavy head and looked at the surrounding environment, at this time he was lying in a spacious stone room, and the carefully processed animal skins were layered to form a soft bed, but when he saw Renas sleeping in his arms, the whole person was not calm.
"No...... Siff, listen to me, I really don't know when she ......"
Xia Yu quickly jumped up from the bed, he hurriedly checked his body, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that his blue cloth was still neatly worn on his body.
Thankfully, nothing scary seemed to be happening.
"Do you know what you did yesterday?" Sif said coldly, making Xia Yu's heart flutter when he heard it.
Yesterday, I didn't seem to do anything, I seemed to have fallen asleep after drinking too much, could it be that I was drunk and had sex promiscuously?
Xia Yu glanced at Renas on the bed again, although she was still wearing a long black dress, but somehow, Xia Yu still felt a burst of weakness.
"Sif I shouldn't have done it...... What, right?" Xia Yu asked cautiously.
"Think again!"
"I thought about it, I really didn't do it......"
Sif had a gloomy face as if she could squeeze out water, and she said word by word, "Didn't you give that dwarf the name 'Brownbeard' yesterday?"
"Yes, so what's the matter?" Xia Yu was a little confused when he heard this.
"What's the matter, I'm telling you, he's your 'family' now!, do you know the family?!" Sif's long, silver-white hair, tugging at her in a frenzy.
Xia Yu shook his head in confusion.
"Ah, I'm so angry! Designating a 'family' is a special ability that has been possessed by the kings of the sun in all generations, and it is an extremely prudent and sacred ritual to do so by giving names! Because the families born through this ritual are equivalent to having the blood of the royal family, and will be blessed by the core of the first fire! They will become the most loyal warriors of the king of the sun in this life!"
"Doesn't sound like it's bad. Xia Yu muttered.
"There's nothing wrong with that!" Xia Yu's attitude angered Sif even more, "You can only appoint a maximum of ten 'dependents' in your life, and you don't know what it means!"
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Xia Yu rushed over and opened the green wooden door as if he had met a savior.
Anyone can do it, it's great to be able to save my life at this time!
"Lord of the Sun, are you alright, Brownbeard has come to see you!"
A stout dwarf appeared in Xia Yu's field of vision, but when he heard him call himself 'Brownbeard', Xia Yu was stupid.
Is this still the unremarkable-looking dwarf?
I saw that Brownbeard's original yellow rock skin had turned into a brass-like material, and his physique seemed to be larger. There was a faint golden glow in his radiant eyes, and he seemed to have carefully groomed his beard, braiding the lower ends of it with some kind of green vine.
When he stepped through the door, it looked like he had gently flicked the door, but the poor wooden door shattered into pieces of wood with a "bang".
"Oh, it's so scary, and Brownbeard isn't used to it. Brownbeard showed a frightened look, and Xia Yu could hear him muttering: "Pity my precious gray rough stone bench, I was accidentally slapped by me today......"
"See, this is the power of the 'Clan', after receiving the blessing of the First Fire Core, they will be given great abilities according to their different circumstances. Sif used her small fist to hammer Xia Yu, who was looking stunned, and knocked him back to reality.
This is also too perverted, Xia Yu saw Brownbeard's arms open to him enthusiastically, and hurriedly retreated, he was really afraid that he would be accidentally picked up by this powerful guy.
"I'm fine! Brownbeard, you go about your business first!"
"Oh oh! That's good! That's good!" Brownbeard also realized that he was a little too dangerous now, and laughed awkwardly, and then he seemed to remember something, and then said: "By the way, master, thanks to you, our Black Rock clan has risen again, and I have named everyone, like a white beard, a blue beard, a red beard, and a big belly, a small belly, and a belly...... Everybody's getting better! everybody's so happy!"
"Is this okay?" Xia Yu asked, looking at Sif.
"Well, for the aliens, the Brownbeard you gave the name becomes their patriarch and can give names to other dwarves of the same race, but they don't get as many benefits as him. ”
"So, the dwarves of the entire Black Rock Clan have become my distant relatives and will be loyal to me forever?"
"Exactly. Sif nodded.
Xia Yu first experienced a brief moment of stunned, and a bold idea came to his heart, which made him cry out with great joy:
"Sif is amazing!"
