Long Tianxiang hadn't seen his parents since he was a child, but fortunately, the orphanage of the Pangya Empire took him in. He had been living in an orphanage since Long Tianxiang could remember, and he didn't have any memories of his parents in his head.

The orphanage, built with royal funding, took in nearly 300 orphans. The conditions are not bad, and orphans starve to death rarely. And because it is the imperial capital, there are often nobles who donate to the orphanage in order to show their kindness.

Long Tianxiang is a bit withdrawn by nature, and he prefers to get along with nature rather than ordinary children gathering to play: find a way to catch butterflies and admire their beautiful wings, paint the maple forest at sunset with the brushes and paints he has picked up, or quietly read one of the few old books donated by the nobles.

There is a golden house in the book, and he understands this very deeply, as it was from the book that he learned that the continent he was born in is called the Tian Yuan Continent, and there are four great powers: the Panya Empire, the Orman Empire, the Holy See, and the Land of Blood - well, no one told him this, except for food, no one will pay attention to these orphans.

When the orphan reaches the age of twelve, he is asked to leave, that is, to stop providing food for him, and if the orphan is still unable to support himself, he can choose to work in the fields used to grow food for the orphans at the Royal Welfare Home in Ponyadi Torondo, growing food for their fellow citizens.

The environment here is good, and many butterflies fly in the summer.

There is a crop called Lou Luo, which has very large flowers. It has large tubers, and flowers bloom at regular intervals on the stems up to the top, like layers of pavilions. The fragrance of flowers is overflowing, attracting bees and butterflies.

When Long Tianxiang was ten years old, one sunny afternoon, he saw a huge butterfly, almost four times the size of an ordinary butterfly. It landed at the very top of the flower, and Long Tianxiang wanted to take a closer look, but as soon as he took a step, it flew away. I saw that on the stretched wings, the pattern was peculiar, each wing had a white spot, with the surrounding lines, it was like a human face, and the eyes were like deep water, Long Tianxiang was in a trance for a while, and when he looked at it again, it had already flown away.

This aroused Long Tianxiang's curiosity. He returned to his lodgings. It was a house of about 100 square meters, and the wooden floor was covered with thin cushions - the orphans, of course, had no beds.

However, one of the mats was very thick, almost five or six times thicker than the surrounding one, and it was covered with a thin quilt on it, which was very eye-catching. It was the leader of this class of children, although he was only ten years old, but he was strong in body and flexible in mind, and under his leadership, stealing things became very smooth, and his luxury was covered by it.

He is known as Black Eyes because of his rare pair of black pupils. Although he is strong, he is not a bully, but he is cheerful and generous, often helps others, and is very able to buy people's hearts, which makes him have many followers, and the three hundred orphans hardly dare to disobey his will.

Long Tianxiang didn't sleep well this night, and his mind was tumbling with various ways to catch butterflies. The next day he got up early in the morning, went out into the field, and gathered the freshest dew and nectar in a small, shabby bowl. After returning the bowl to his lodgings, he pushed open the door of the orphanage, the only thing intact, and went to the bazaar to buy a bottle of glue.

As an orphan, Long Tianxiang naturally stole and saved, so he had some savings. After returning to the orphanage, he poured the right amount of glue into a small bowl to make it sticky enough without losing its fragrance.

Long Tianxiang came to the field again, found the tallest Louluo, about to his chest, and pulled it up, and then piled it up with soil to raise the Louluo. This is the inspiration he got from yesterday's giant butterfly landing on the tallest flower,

A quiet person tends to have the trait of being thoughtful, doesn't he?

He spread the liquid from the small bowl around the stamens, and then crouched in the surrounding towers, hoping for his luck.

The newly rising sun left the last of its shyness behind and began to give as much as it could. The butterflies began to fly. And the wings are almost four times larger than those of the same kind and giant butterflies, which is really obvious. It flies higher than any other butterfly, like their king. Suddenly, as if noticing the ridiculously tall Lou Luo, it flew down and landed on the top flower.

Long Tianxiang was overjoyed, but he didn't get up. He waited for the best time.

The abundant sunshine helped Long Tianxiang a lot. The glue that quickly dries and sticks to the butterflies that are enjoying themselves. The giant butterfly realized that something was wrong and began to flap its wings violently.

This attracted the attention of Long Tianxiang, who was lying below, and he knew that the time was ripe, so he immediately stood up, pinched the two wings of the giant butterfly together, and took them out, intending to return to his residence to take a closer look.

As soon as Long Tianxiang, who was carrying a giant butterfly, entered the courtyard through the back door, he saw Black Eyes chasing and playing with a group of children.

Long Tianxiang rarely participated in these plays, and walked directly to the house. But the giant butterfly in his hand was so eye-catching that almost everyone noticed it.

The black eye walked up to Long Tianxiang. Although he is the same age, he is nearly a head taller than Long Tianxiang, with short brown hair, a burly figure, dark skin, and a bit of handsome and heroic taste.

In contrast, Long Tianxiang is really much colder: he has long gray curly hair, messy, although he also has thick eyebrows and big eyes, his skin is white, his eyes are gray, and he looks lifeless, which can only be regarded as not ugly.

Black-eyed asked, "What is this?" Did you catch it?"

Long Tianxiang nodded.

Blackeye said, "Can you let me see?"

The black eyes were not familiar with the withdrawn Long Tianxiang, so they didn't ask for it directly, and they were already very polite in the tone of a request. But Long Tianxiang had just caught this giant butterfly, and he hadn't played with it yet, so he was willing to show it to others. Besides, he didn't know what it meant to share, and he had caught this giant butterfly with all his might, so he shook his head.

The black eyes frowned, and said, "Why? ”

Long Tianxiang glanced at him, thought about it, and still found a reason, and said: "This is the Butterfly King, I plan to release it after watching it, you will kill it." "Butterfly King" is just what he said, and Long Tianxiang tore his wings in the past to watch, how can he have this kindness, it's just an excuse.

Blackeye narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm not going to kill it." He said that he had quickly grabbed the giant butterfly. Although Long Tianxiang knew that refusing again would probably not end well, but because he was withdrawn and a little extreme, he was really unwilling to give away the little fun in his life to others, even for a while. He took a step back and said in a deep voice, "I have already said that I will not give it." ”

At this time, several children who were playing with Black-Eyed had also come to the front, and when they heard this, one of them shouted: "Don't give face!" Long Tianxiang also glared, took the giant butterfly into his arms, and said: "Lao Tzu said that if you don't give it, you won't give it!"

In the past, how could anyone dare to talk back to the black-eyed gang? The person who spoke came up and kicked Long Tianxiang back several steps. He was about to continue fighting, but he heard the black eyes shouting, "Stop." He was stunned, but retreated.

Black Eyes also has a little anger in his heart, he is not a bully, he has been followed by the stars for a long time, and he is a child, so he will inevitably be a little domineering when he acts. At this moment, he stepped forward, no longer polite, and said, "Do you want to give it?"

Long Tianxiang knew that if he didn't give it, he would probably be beaten, but he said: "The black-eyed ** is a kind of heads-up, relying on more people to count a fart!" Long Tianxiang didn't want to give it, so he used the agitation method to avoid being beaten by the group.

Sure enough, the black eyes laughed angrily: "I want to see what you are capable of!" stepped forward and punched Long Tianxiang in the chin, and gave him a heavy blow to the stomach, taking advantage of his bending down, grabbing his head, lifting him up with one hand, slamming him against the wall, banging a few times in a row, throwing him to the ground, kicking him several times in succession, kicking until he vomited blood.

Seeing that Long Tianxiang didn't fight back, Heiyan lost interest, kicked again, turned around and said to a few children: "Let's continue to play, don't delay with this bad luck." So a group of people went away, leaving Long Tianxiang alone to curl up on the ground.

Long Tianxiang was in severe pain, and it took a while to ease up, and he touched the ribs on his body and it was broken. He knew that this would not work, so he stood up carefully and walked towards the porter.

Long Tianxiang is an orphan, and it is very common for him to be beaten. If someone is caught stealing something, he will not be prosecuted by the official, but he will be beaten, walking in the street and blocking the path of the noble lord, he will be beaten with a horsewhip, and he will grab food from other orphans, and he will often only grab his fist if he is not strong.

He used to be sad about it, hating himself for being useless, but after a long time, he got used to numbness. He can't beat others, so he wants to be beaten by others, it's as simple as that, what's the use of hurting himself, hating others, and struggling repeatedly? It's just to increase the pain, so he won't think about it anymore.

He took out the giant butterfly and found that it was still in good condition, and even had a faint excitement: No matter how hard you hit me, you can't stop me from admiring the butterfly wings, right?
