Hearing her words, the young man shrank into the corner, pursed his lips and did not speak.

The tattered and thin clothes on his body had been taken off by Si Yan before, and now he was naked, his upper body was clinging to the cold stone wall, his body was trembling, but he stared at Yue Bai stubbornly, like a cat with its tail pinched.

[Something is wrong.........]

Yuebai muttered, turned her head and asked Si Yan, "What happened just now?" ”

Otherwise, how could there be such a big reaction.

If you were afraid of people, you wouldn't have come in so openly to grab food.

So Yuebai speculated that something must have happened just now that stimulated him.

Si Yan is not a narrow-minded person, but he is not angry—although the other party almost strangles himself to death.

Yuebai's words also made him think about it.

Then he thought of something.

"I touched it...... He had a ...... on his back scars. ”

His voice was uncomfortable and he spoke very slowly, trying to make Yuebai understand what he was saying.

As soon as the words fell, the young man who had been cowering in the corner as if ready to burst out at any moment let out a low roar, like a trapped beast with deep despair.

"Roaring ———"

Just when Yuebai wanted to try to communicate with him, the dragon cub next to him also let out a roar.

"Dragon cub...... Yes, called. ”

Yuebai: "......... Well. ”

Hearing Yuebai's echo, the dragon cub raised his head: "The dragon cub is, the best!" ”

The tense atmosphere disappeared in an instant.

Even Noah, who had been listening intently to the movement by the fire, had a little smile on his lips.

"You may have misunderstood, we have no ill will towards you, if Si Yan offended you, then I apologize to you on his behalf."

Hearing her words, the young man didn't react, he was still like that, looking at Yuebai vigilantly.

Yuebai thought for a moment and continued, "We took off your clothes because you had a fever, so we wanted to wipe your body to cool down. ”

"You feel it too, you're not feeling well."

Yuebai's words were sincere, and the person he almost strangled to death just now didn't react to him.

Sikong Ming's eyes softened a little.

Yuebai tried to move towards the boy, but the moment she moved, he jerked back against the stone wall behind him.

The stone in the cave was not smooth, his upper body was naked, so he rubbed it over there, Yuebai looked at it and felt pain for him, so he simply stopped trying to get closer.

"You're in a bad state now, we won't be near you anymore, you can get a good night's sleep."

As she spoke, she picked up the cloak she had used to wrap him and threw it over.

"Cover this."

The cloak sewn together by various furs was warm, fluffy and soft, and there was a sweet smell that Sikong Ming had never smelled before.

He couldn't help but take a few more sips.

In his peripheral vision, he caught a glimpse of someone moving, and he raised his eyes and looked over vigilantly.

It was the boy who had been choked by himself.

Although the other party's gaze swept over, he did not look at him.

Instead, he stared at the cloak on his body for a long time, and his eyes flashed with emotions that he couldn't understand.

After only one glance, he ignored himself and turned and walked towards the fire.

Sikong Ming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

His eyelids had long been unable to open, and his removed arm was also very painful, and he was weak and dizzy.

Holding on to mental vigilance for a while, the fire in his eyes became more and more hazy, and there was laughter from time to time in his ears, and in the same space, even he, a monster who was cowering in the corner and couldn't see the light, seemed to be infected with a little warmth.

They look so happy.........

...

Sikong Ming was woken up by pain.

When he opened his eyes dimly and saw that there seemed to be a figure in front of him, he couldn't react.

Until the warm, soft hand squeezed his other arm, and then twisted it———

Sikong Ming was completely sober.

Before he could make any moves, the person who was originally squatting in front of him pulled away.

Looking at her back, Sikong Ming suddenly found that his arm could move.

"It's been a long time, and the snow has stopped."

A voice from over there caught his attention.

Only then did he realize that the fire that he had dreamed of all night had been extinguished, and at this time it was so bright outside that he could not hear the sound of wind and snow.

Did he sleep so deeply?

The girl who was called Long Man went out and observed for a while, and then came back and called the little dragon nestled in the young man who couldn't see people.

"Dragon cub, get up."

Sikong Ming thought it was very rare.

Dragon, he had only heard it from the old lame man who liked to tell stories to children.

But then the cripple was cut off for stealing and thrown out of the Winged Clan, and he never heard a story about the dragon again.

The dragon cub stood up in a daze: "Hmm......... Good morning, long. ”

Although his consciousness was still a little unconscious, he keenly felt the somewhat unfamiliar gaze on the side.

He turned his head to look over.

It's the brother who fought with Si Yan last night.

"Good morning, brother."

Thinking of Manman's attitude towards him, the dragon cub greeted him obediently.

Sikong Ming didn't expect him to talk to him.

Although he didn't understand what 'good morning' meant, he intuitively felt that the little black dragon was greeting him.

【Huh.........】

Yuebai let out a little surprised.

Because she saw Sikong Ming nodding at the dragon cub.

The system sighed: [Our dragon cub is really loved by everyone, and I don't know which blessed one can be with him in the future]

"Manman, brother, come with us, go, will you?"

The dragon cub watched Si Yan carry Noah on his back, and turned his head to look at Sikong Ming, who was still looking at him curiously.

Yuebai picked up the bowl of soup that had been prepared a long time ago.

"It's a soup made with leftover ingredients from last night, and it tastes good."

She walked over under Sikong Ming's gaze.

Strangely, the boy didn't react this time.

With the mild bowl of soup in hand, he opened his mouth to say something.

But Yuebai had already gotten up and left.

Si Yan carried Noah on his back and looked at Yuebai who came out alone with some surprise.

"I thought you'd take him with me."

System: [I think so too]

Yuebai shook his head: "He doesn't seem to need it." ”

She didn't have to take every Child of Destiny with her, and the most critical task now was to find the holy relics that originally belonged to Noah but were taken away by the Wing Clan.

As for the third Child of Destiny, if he encounters any difficulties......

It doesn't matter, she'll make a move.

After discerning the direction, Yuebai and the others continued to hurry.

But before she could go far, she suddenly felt an extra breath behind her.

Yuebai turned his head———

Teenagers in heavy cloaks walked in the snow with their footprints.

He was holding a familiar wooden bowl in his hand, and he was still wearing Yuebai's beggar-style cloak, how did he look like ———

System: [Beggar Gang Leader]

Yuebai: "........."

"Why did you come along?"

She stopped, and just watched as the boy walked towards her.

The other party's light gray eyes stared at him tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear in place.

Hearing Yuebai's voice, the young man stopped in front of her without breathing, and said in a calm voice: "Follow you, I can eat enough." ”

Yuebai: "........."

What an unpretentious answer.

“…… What's your name? She asked.

A pair of light gray eyes under the boy's messy hair stared at her fixedly, and his voice was green but powerful enough———

"Sikongming."
