Chapter 63: Monogatari

In the early morning, all kinds of birds and beasts in the Dragon Valley began to show their singing voices, and they were so lively. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe teenagers trapped in the Dragon Valley have also started to get busy, preparing for the next journey.

Mu Tian picks some berries from the surrounding fruit trees to quench his thirst and satisfy hunger, while the Golden Fat Man takes his "Black King" to catch fish in the lake, although the fish meat cannot be stored for long in such a sweltering Dragon Valley, but his idea is to be able to eat it for a day.

Qingkong and Shika'er stood on a higher ground, planning their route for a while.

"Hey, boss, look what I've found!" Jin Ming had just swam up from the lake, wet and smiling, and he was still clutching a huge shell in his hand.

"What can you find? Is it a treasure? It must be food......" Qingkong didn't even think about it, and said directly in a tone with a hint of joke.

"Uh......" Jin Ming was speechless for a while, only turned over the thing in his hand, this time Qingkong and Lu'er saw clearly, the "thing" was actually a huge shell, and the stripes on it were glowing with a circle of light, which was very good-looking.

"This is the lake essence shellfish, it is one of the extremely rare delicacies in the world, you can't see this kind of dishes in the general restaurant, even our famous Willie Restaurant in the east city has only appeared twice, and it is not half the size of this, it has sold thousands of gold coins, and the sky-high price of the dishes is ......" Jin Mingtou introduced the beautiful things in his hand authentically, and his saliva seemed to flow out as he spoke.

The temptation of food to Qingkong is not as strong as Jin Ming's, and when he heard Willy Restaurant, the scene with the manager was put back in his mind, which aroused the unhappiness in his heart, so he pouted and said: "Isn't it just a bigger shell, let you say that it is like eating it to prolong your life." Qingkong suddenly remembered the dragon crystal in his leather bag, and said that it was circulated among the people.

"Hey, don't say it, although this lake spirit shell is not as evil as you say, it is a rare good thing in the eyes of men......" The golden fat man smiled evilly, and continued in a low voice, "It is a treasure that many old rich people who are not happy with their sex are looking for, this thing, the reason why it is called lake spirit shell, means that the essence of the entire lake is in it." ”

As he spoke, the golden fat man vigorously broke the lake spirit shellfish in his hand along the gap, wanting to show everyone the fresh meat inside. Unexpectedly, he had just forcefully broken a small gap in the lake spirit shell, and suddenly a black thing flew out of it and stuck to the fat man's face at once.

"Ah......" What followed was the scream of the golden fat man, and the lake spirit shell in his hand also fell to the ground, although the black thing was not very big originally, but in an instant, the volume began to expand all of a sudden, and it actually swelled to several times the original size.

The sudden change made everyone stunned, and the cry of the golden fat man also attracted Mu Tian, who was picking berries, she thought something was wrong, and ran over to see that it was a leech!

Only then did he see what was on the fat man's face, the leech was a creature he had often encountered when he had been hunting with his family when he was a child, and he couldn't help but laugh. Pity the fat golden man, who was bitten inexplicably and made fun of.

"Old ...... Boss, you're still laughing, help me get this thing down!" Jin Ming cried in a mournful voice, not daring to move, because he knew that if he used brute force, it would not be easy to take this thing down.

Qingkong knew that although this thing was not harmful at all, it was just to suck some blood, but he still helped him get the leech off his face.

Although the leech was taken off, the fat man's face had risen slightly, and he looked like half of his face was swollen, and his funny appearance made several people a little unbearable, and even Mu Tian's face changed a little, but out of politeness, she still couldn't help but smile.

"You ......" Jin Ming looked at Qingkong and the deer who was snickering with his mouth covered, and was about to say something, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the lake spirit shell that had just been thrown on the ground because he was startled, so he immediately ignored the hot feeling on his face, bent down and picked up the lake spirit shell, and when he found that the fresh shellfish meat was still there, he let out a sigh, and the unpleasant feeling on his face was no longer important......

This little episode brightened the mood of several people before they set off. Of course, in the end, poor Jin Ming still got his wish and ate the shellfish that he had carefully roasted, but the taste was not as good as he imagined.

Although there were still a few things to eat, grilled fish, berries, and a roasted hare (of course, Lu Er and Mu Tian would not eat it), a few people were still full before they returned to the road, and the direction of the road was the one they had never walked before, the east.

But no matter which direction they take, forests are still the most common natural landscape that accompanies them. In order to see if there was any unknown danger ahead, Qingkong would occasionally climb a high tree to take a look, but no matter which direction he looked, he couldn't see the boundary of this forest sea. But even with this vastness, the deer still led the crowd towards the place that they considered to be the only exit.

"Lu'er, these roads are so intricate, and almost all the trees here grow into the same shape, as if carved out of a mold, how do you know where to go?" asked Qingkong curiously.

Lu'er smiled lightly, her green eyes were like a clear spring, and she said coquettishly: "Brother Xiaokong, don't forget that I am a Phantom Girl! And my family has always lived in the depths of the forest, and we have been accompanied by trees day and night, and we have already become a part of them. You may not be able to tell the difference between these trees on the surface, but they are truly unique, and each of their branches swaying like we are whispering, which we call 'Monogatari'. ”

Although Mu Tian was hurrying intently behind the two, he also heard Lu'er's words just now. Listening to the meaning of Lu'er's description, the reason why she was able to find the way when she first came in the vast forest was because she could understand the "language" of the tree, and the tree "showed the way" for her.

In Mu Tian's impression, it is not surprising that they can understand the language of animals, such as wolves, bears and dragons, there are many such races, not only because they have lived with these animals since they were children, and understand their habits and language, but also compared to the "obscure language" of trees, animals are still easier to understand. Thinking of this, Mu Tian couldn't help but be more curious about Lu'er's identity, and he didn't know which ancient family she was from, and she actually had such a magical ability.

"Brother Xiaokong, do you remember the cliff cave where we hid when we were chased by the blue dragon? That cliff cave was reminded by the surrounding grass and trees. Lu'er remembered the dangerous situation at that time, and his face showed a touch of melancholy, as if he still had palpitations.

"I see, I said, how did you find such a hidden hiding place all at once......" Qingkong looked at the towering trees around him, although he knew that every tree was a life, but with Lu'er's words just now, he could feel their aura even more at the moment, as if they were all watching him. Qingkong remembered that he had often climbed up and down on them, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so he folded his hands to express his gratitude to them.

Seeing this, Lu'er smiled, and his good impression of him in his heart was another layer.

Yes, everything in the world is reasonable when it exists, and as long as it is life, it is fair.

Lu'er suddenly remembered the old song sung in the family, and a light voice sounded, and a melodious melody surrounded the air. She sings in the language of the Phantom Clan, which adds a layer of mystery, which translates into Mandarin to the effect:

The sun shines on the earth,

The drizzle is alive.

The song accompanies the stream,

Dancing and dancing the tree hangs.

The moonlight shakes the sails,

The stars light up the night.

The sky can no longer see the dizzy darkness,

There is only an eternal light left.

......

The deer's singing voice is crisp and graceful, and the beautiful notes form a beautiful picture in the listener's mind, making people feel like they are there, and they have forgotten that they are still walking in the dangerous Dragon Valley......
