Chapter 019: The Mysterious Fragrance of Flowers
Shangguan Yunlong's eyes were hollow, his expression was in a trance, and he kept saying that strange name - Xiaolan in his mouth. Hei Lao handed Shangguan Yunlong a steaming bowl of broth of demonized tiger's meat, and said, "What's the matter, tiger boy, you've been saying this name since you just woke up, is she your family?"
Shangguan Yunlong suddenly grabbed Hei Lao's hand, which frightened Hei Lao, and even the bowl in his hand was almost unstable, and the broth inside shook for a while, but fortunately it didn't spill out. Hei Lao freed up one hand and put the broth on the small case next to the bed, hugged Shangguan Yunlong into his arms, and asked: "Tiger boy, what's wrong, talk to the old man, if you hold it in your heart like you and don't say it, you're not afraid of being uncomfortable!"
Shangguan Yunlong's face suddenly stiffened, two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks, and he no longer said the name in his mouth, Shangguan Yunlong suddenly hid in the arms of the old man and cried.
Hei Lao gently stroked Shangguan Yunlong's head and said, "What's the matter, Tiger boy, why are you crying, this is not like you, you kid didn't frown in the face of such a powerful opponent as the ghost emperor's phantom, how could you cry like this?"
Shangguan Yunlong sobbed and said: "I saw her! Really, I saw her! If it weren't for me, she wouldn't have died! It's all my fault, I'm going to find her soul, I'm afraid that once she is reincarnated, she will forget me!"
When Hei Lao heard Shangguan Yunlong's words, he also let out a long sigh and said, "Tiger boy, who is she? is she your family or ...... The way you are now, recovering from a serious injury, how can you find her!"
Shangguan Yunlong left Hei Lao's embrace, sat down on the bed in a daze, and muttered to himself: "No! I'm going to find her! She promised me that she would plant magnolia flowers in the bluest place in the sky, and then ask me to go crazy under the magnolia tree with her." I'm going to find her!" After speaking, Shangguan Yunlong stood up and walked out in a trance.
Hei Lao grabbed Shangguan Yunlong and said, "The way you are now, even if you find it, doesn't it make her worry?" Shangguan Yunlong turned his head, looked at Hei Lao in a daze, stopped, and then sighed, broke free of Hei Lao's hand, found a bamboo chair, and sat down slowly, holding his head in both hands, burying his head deep in his chest, and sobbing in a low voice.
Hei Lao also sat down on the bamboo chair next to him, gently patted Shangguan Yunlong's back, and comforted: "When you have all the strength, go to her again, since you can still dream of her now, at least it means that she has not yet entered reincarnation, so you still have time to become a strong person, only when you become a strong person, can you have the ability to protect her after finding her!"
Shangguan Yunlong raised his head, nodded, and said, "What Hei Lao said is true! I am like this now, even if I find her soul, I can't keep her soul, so I have to wait until I am completely healed and have the ability to protect her, and then go to find her soul, so as not to worry her!"
Hei Lao stood up, walked to the small desk in front of the bed, picked up the bowl of demonized tiger broth, walked to Shangguan Yunlong's side, and said: "Drink the broth first to replenish your body, tiger boy, I didn't say you, the ghost emperor's phantom is such a powerful opponent, how can you die with him like this, fortunately, this time it's not the ghost emperor himself, it's just a low-level phantom, otherwise you won't have such good luck!"
Shangguan Yunlong took the broth from Hei Lao's hand, picked up the spoon, took a sip, and said: "Well, I know, Hei Lao, I will never be so impulsive again, this time thanks to Hei Lao, I can escape from death, I must cultivate the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique, become stronger as soon as possible, and find her soul as soon as possible." ”
The old man nodded and said, "That's right, this is my tiger boy!" By the way, can you tell the old man, who is Xiaolan you have been talking about before? What is her name, maybe the old man can help you find her soul!"
Shangguan Yunlong drank all the soup in the bowl, with a painful look on his face, let out a long sigh, and said sadly: "If only these things could be as fragrant as this bowl of demonized tiger meat broth, I only heard her call me Brother Wang in my dream, and the others were only some vague shadows." "
Hei Lao patted Shangguan Yunlong on the shoulder and said, "Tiger boy! It seems that Xiaolan who you keep talking about turns out to be your own concubine! I can understand the pain of losing a loved one, just like me, I have lost the friend of life and death, but now we at least know that Sister Xiaolan has not entered reincarnation, which means that her soul has not dissipated, and we still have a chance! Now your top priority is to become a strong person as soon as possible!"
Shangguan Yunlong nodded and said: "Well, I'll keep this matter in mind first, Hei Lao, let's start cultivating the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique, a lot of things have happened before, and I haven't had time to seriously cultivate the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique, while there is nothing to interfere with cultivation for the time being, hurry up and cultivate!"
Hei Lao smiled: "I said Tiger Boy, you look like this, and you are still thinking about cultivating the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique, not bad, you have the demeanor of Brother Long, if you go on like this, you can find the soul of Sister Xiaolan!"
Shangguan Yunlong also regained his composure at this time, and said: "Hei Lao, I learned the beast language last time, what are you going to learn this time?" As he spoke, Shangguan Yunlong closed his eyes, his hands were raised, and a burst of golden light flashed, and the simple and heavy dragon beast soul recipe instantly appeared in Shangguan Yunlong's hand. This time, Shangguan Yunlong did not use the five big characters full of mysterious power in the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique, but looked at Hei Lao with a serious face.
The black old man's face showed appreciation, and he said: "I still remember what I learned before, not bad, yes, I was worried about you, and I forgot about it after delaying it for so many days!
But now that you have just recovered from a major injury, if you suddenly increase your cultivation intensity, I am afraid that something will go wrong again, delaying your plan to cultivate the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique, and it just so happens that what you want to learn this time is related to your beast language, but you have learned the beast language very quickly before, presumably the next training must not be a very difficult thing for you!"
Shangguan Yunlong asked suspiciously: "It has something to do with the beast language I learned before, and it's very simple? Hei Lao, you're not joking! This dragon beast soul transformation technique is the inheritance of the dragon beast king, and the things left by such a bullish person as the dragon beast king will be so easy to cultivate! Hei Lao, don't you say this on purpose because the next things are very difficult to cultivate!"
The black old man laughed and said, "Tiger boy, what are you doing so modestly! When you learned the beast language before, it only took a very short period of time to learn it all, what is there to be humble about such a demonic cultivation talent!"
Shangguan Yunlong scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "Hei Lao, let's stop talking nonsense here for now, let's eat breakfast first and start cultivating the Dragon Beast Soul Transformation Technique!"
Hei Lao gently stroked Shangguan Yunlong's head and said, "I know the priority of the matter, yes, just listen to you!"
Shangguan Yunlong put his hands together in the middle and withdrew the dragon beast soul transformation technique into his own sea of consciousness.
Hei Lao helped Shangguan Yunlong to walk outside the bamboo house, and as soon as he walked to the small bamboo chair outside the bamboo house, Shangguan Yunlong smelled a strong aroma of porridge, which was the smell of morning dew porridge.
Shangguan Yunlong asked Hei Lao to help him walk towards the place where the porridge incense came from, Hei Lao's palm flipped, and a delicate bamboo tube appeared in Hei Lao's hand, and there was a polished and smooth bamboo spoon in the bamboo tube.
Shangguan Yunlong took the bamboo tube and slowly bent down towards the small pot full of morning dew porridge on the bamboo shelf, because the terrifying blood hole in his chest had just healed, Shangguan Yunlong did not dare to make too much movement, for fear that the wound would tear again.
Hei Lao carefully supported Shangguan Yunlong's waist, Shangguan Yunlong held a bamboo tube in one hand and a bamboo spoon in the other, and slowly put the morning dew porridge in the small pot into the bamboo tube.
After breakfast, Hei Lao helped Shangguan Yunlong to the mountain behind the bamboo house, it was the time of severe cold, but the trees here were indeed verdant, flowers were all over the ground, and from time to time a few fluffy little beasts ran by, screamed at them a few times, and ran away.
Hei Lao let go of the hand holding Shangguan Yunlong, and said: "This time we are going to learn the simplest and most important kind of your ability in the dragon and beast soul transformation technique, which is the soul control developed from the beast language, although soul control is the simplest one of the dragon and beast soul transformation techniques, but it is also difficult to learn soul control well, in addition to being very proficient in beast language, we must also have an innate affinity with various beasts and dragons, in order to truly practice soul control to the extreme." ”
Shangguan Yunlong whistled at a small beast passing nearby, but the little beast just stopped, tilted its head and glanced at Shangguan Yunlong, let out a snort, and ran away.
This made Shangguan Yunlong blush for a while, and said: "Oops! It seems that I don't have an innate affinity for dragons and beasts, could it be that my bear child breath that can ride a dog and step on a cat's tail and retreat can fly stones to hit a vicious dog is too strong, scaring it away?"
Hei Lao said encouragingly: "Don't worry, take your time, tiger boy, soul control is not done like this, soul control requires the practitioner to be able to perceive the soul of the target animal, the primary level is to perceive, the intermediate level is to communicate with the target animal at the soul level through their own spiritual power, and the advanced level is to be able to fully grasp every move of the target animal according to the practitioner's own wishes."
You've just come into contact with soul control now, and failure is inevitable, just practice more, don't worry, take your time!"
Shangguan Yunlong took a deep breath and began to think back to how he had made those animals close to him before, although he had a strong bear child atmosphere, he always used fragrant slices of meat to attract those animals first, and then bullied them.
Now, Shangguan Yunlong understands that this method should be used. Shangguan Yunlong took out a piece of demonized tiger's meat from his storage bag, held it in his hand, and quietly waited for the little beast to come over.
Soon, several small beasts were attracted by the fragrance of the flesh of the demonized tiger, among which there was a blood-colored flower growing on the head of one of the small beasts, which was exuding a strong floral fragrance, Shangguan Yunlong smelled this floral fragrance, as if he remembered something, his head was in sharp pain, and Hei Lao also frowned when he smelled this floral fragrance.
