Chapter 394: What Could Be More Important Than Looks?
I saw a faintly glowing disc lying on the ground in the depths of the cave.
Zhong Wen glanced at it obliquely, and saw that the three-headed golden feather Dapeng was still immersed in the atmosphere of parting and couldn't extricate himself, so he simply ignored them, walked forward by himself, reached out and picked up the disc, and looked at it carefully.
At this glance, Zhong Wen was taken aback.
It turned out that this disc was actually a bronze mirror.
The mirror surface of the bronze mirror is dark gold, which can vaguely reflect Zhong Wen's appearance, and in the center of the back is a pair of yin and yang Taiji diagrams, surrounded by an octagonal shape, and each side is engraved with three solid lines or dotted lines composed of yin and yang, which actually forms a complete gossip figure.
It's definitely an antiquity item!
Seeing the familiar pattern, Zhong Wen felt a burst of excitement in his heart, and couldn't help but take the bronze mirror in his hand and play with it over and over again.
The shape of the mirror is not very cool, but it exudes a mysterious and unique atmosphere, as if to announce to the world that "I am not an ordinary mirror".
This should not be an ordinary mirror.
Zhong Wen couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart, wiped the mirror with his sleeve, took a closer look again, and tried to input a trace of spiritual power into the mirror.
However, no matter how he tried, this "unusual" bronze mirror still lay quietly in his hand, and did not show any vision.
Despite this, for some reason, Zhong Wen still decided that the bronze mirror was "not simple", he suddenly had an idea, turned his head cheekily and said to Jin Yu Dapeng: "Old Jin, this mirror is very good-looking, can you give it to me as a souvenir?"
Lao Jin was stunned for a moment, saw the bronze mirror in Zhong Wen's hand clearly, and found that it was not a great thing, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to agree, but he heard his wife "Gillian" on the side exclaim: "No, no, this, this is my baby!"
Lao Jin was puzzled: "Gillian, what kind of treasure is this thing?"
Zhong Wenzheng was struggling to study where the bronze mirror was "unusual", and when he heard Gillian's words, he was overjoyed, and couldn't help asking: "Oh, what's so magical about this baby?"
"It's, it's ......" Gillian hesitated for a long time before she finally made up her mind and said slowly, "It can reflect my appearance." β
"What else?" Zhong Wen asked.
"With it, I'm able to comb my feathers. But I heard Gillian say, "I will always maintain the most beautiful appearance in front of Lao Jin, if I don't have this treasure, what will I do in the future!"
Speaking of sadness, it couldn't help but shed a few tears.
"That's it?" Zhong Wen's face gradually pulled down.
"Isn't that enough?" Gillian cried out, "What is more important to Mu Peng than her appearance?
"Silly Gillian!" Lao Jin was greatly moved when he heard this, and couldn't help but spread his wings, hugged Gillian in his arms, and said softly and comfortingly, "Even if you don't have this thing, in my heart, you will always be the most beautiful mother Peng." β
"Old Kim!"
"Gillian!"
"Dad!Mother!" Looking at the old Jin couple who hugged and cried each other, even Xiao Ming was in tears and moved.
Looking at the pair of golden feather Dapeng in front of him, Zhong Wen was full of black lines, crying and laughing, as if he had done something hurtful.
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly reached into his arms, took out a small bottle, uncorked it, and poured out two pills.
The rich medicinal fragrance instantly filled the entire nest, and the three-headed golden feather Dapeng who was originally crying and crying closed their voices at the same time, and they all turned their heads to look at the pill in Zhong Wen's hand, and their blue eyes were full of longing.
"I'm not unreasonable. Zhong Wen sighed, his face showing a look of pain, "There are two elixirs here, which can not only treat any injury, but also increase the longevity of several decades, how about exchanging them for your baby?"
"Deal!" Gillian blurted out, how decisive she is, how decisive she is.
"Gillian, are you going to agree?" Lao Jin looked at his wife, who was still crying a moment ago, and said deliciously, "What about your appearance? What about my love?"
"Are you stupid?" Gillian stretched out her wings and patted Lao Jin's head heavily, "What kind of love, how can it be compared to decades of longevity? Besides, without this thing, I can fly a little farther and go to the lake below the mountain to take care of my feathers, but it just takes more time." β
Lao Jin: "......"
The two male eagles, one large and one small, were like sculptures, watching Gillian jump to Zhong Wen in a daze, stretching out her wings and carefully taking the "elixir", her face full of courtesy and flattery.
"Let's go!" Zhong Wen saw that the deal had been reached, and he didn't have the intention of continuing to stay, he beckoned to Xiao Ming, and then turned his head to look at the old Jin couple, "Two of you, there will be a date later!"
With that, he clicked on his toes, and his figure flashed, appearing high in the air outside the lair.
Seeing Zhong Wen and Xiao Ming disappearing, Gillian suddenly stretched out her wings and patted Lao Jin's head fiercely: "What are you doing with a stinky face?"
"Gillian, you have changed!" Lao Jin said with a bitter face, "In your mind, is the relationship between the two of us no match for decades of longevity?"
"You, what a fool!" Gillian said softly, "For our Peng clan, decades of longevity are nothing, but I think that two-legged beast master can take out such an elixir at will, it is definitely a great character, Xiao Ming can serve his sister, it is very likely to be a great opportunity, how can you offend him at this time?"
"Then why do you need to accept these two elixirs?" Lao Jin was puzzled, "Wouldn't it be better to give him the treasure directly and sell it for a favor?"
"Do you say I'm for myself?" Gillian glanced at the two Peng eggs in the distance gently, "Aren't these two uneasy little guys coming again? With the elixir, their safety is also more guaranteed, isn't it?"
"I see, Gillian, I'm wrong to blame you. Lao Jin suddenly realized, and couldn't help but hang his head in shame.
"You're still like a young peng when you're old. Gillian gently rubbed Lao Jin's head, "This family is going to have no me, what should I do!"
The nest was once again filled with warmth.
......
At this time, on the outer edge of the Ten Thousand Eagles' Lair, Zhuma was staring nervously at the very center of the Hanging Island, and muttered, "Sister Ning, why hasn't the distinguished guest come back, it shouldn't be an accident?"
"He should have something to delay. Ning Jie smiled and shook her head, "Just wait." β
"Isn't my sister worried about the safety of your guests?" Zhuma's handsome little face showed a hint of puzzlement, "What if he meets the Golden Feather Dapeng? Even if he has a spiritual cultivation, he may not be the opponent of the Golden Feather Dapeng." β
"In this world, there are not many existences that can hurt him. Ning Jie replied indifferently.
"Sister is so confident in your guests?" Although she was repeatedly shocked by Zhong Wen's performance, Zhu Ma still felt suspicious of Ning Jie's words.
"He's my sister's favorite man. Ning Jie smiled and rubbed Zhuma's hair, "How could I not have confidence in him?"
Zhuma looked confused, not understanding what the inevitable connection between the two was.
"Look, isn't this coming back?" Before she could ask, Ning Jie raised her head and looked into the distance and said.
Zhuma looked up in response, only to see a white figure in the sky in the distance.
Behind this figure, a golden-red light followed closely.
The white shadow and the golden light were extremely fast, and in an instant, they had appeared above the second girl.
"It's back. Ning Jie looked at Zhong Wen hanging in the air with affection, and said softly.
"Well, it's back. Zhong Wen smiled softly at his sweetheart, and then turned his head to look at the little girl Zhuma, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting." β
"Ah!!" Zhuma suddenly screamed, "thisβthis is...... Golden Feather Roc!"
Seeing the huge fierce bird behind Zhong Wen, which shone with golden light and covered the sky and the sun, Zhu Ma instantly recalled Gan Duyun's description of the Golden Feather Dapeng in her mind, and she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart at the thought of meeting this legendary and powerful creature.
"My lord, is this your sister? Xiao Ming's blue eyes looked at Zhu Ma for a moment, nodded and said, "Only our Dapeng clan can withstand such a bad aura." β
"Do you feel it too?" Zhong Wen frowned, secretly thinking about taking the time to diagnose Zhuma, "From now on, you will always be by my sister's side to protect her and her people's safety." β
"Yes, my lord!" Xiao Ming replied respectfully.
"Don't worry, as long as you do well, I will never treat you badly. Zhong Wen patted Xiao Ming's neck gently, "When I come back next time, I will give you an elixir to help you reach a higher level." β
"Thank you, my lord!" Xiao Ming was overjoyed, waving his wings excitedly, and no longer resisted the errand of serving a two-legged young beast.
At this time, Zhuma's thin body had already leaned forward unconsciously, as if he wanted to get to Xiao Ming, but he didn't dare, a pair of delicate big eyes flickered, with three phases of hope in his eyes, seven points of timidity.
"Zhuma, don't you have a spirit beast partner?" Zhong Wen turned his head, smiled at the little girl, and said lightly, "How about letting this Golden Feather Dapeng be your partner?"
"What?" the little girl didn't react for a while, and asked in a daze.
"I mean, how about letting it be your spirit beast companion?" Zhong Wen lowered his voice and said word by word.
"I, it, I ......" Zhuma finally understood what Zhong Wen meant, and was so shocked that she couldn't even speak clearly for a while, "How can I be qualified...... How does it ...... I really...... I ......"
"You have worked hard to be a tour guide for us, and I have nothing to reciprocate. Zhong Wen said with a smile, "So I discussed it with Xiao Ming just now, and asked it to be your partner, it has already agreed, as long as you nod, from now on, Xiao Ming will be your spirit beast partner." β
Zhong Wen's words came into Zhu Ma's ears, like fairy music, directly teaching her to be confused, and she didn't know where she was for a while.
"I forgot to mention, 'Xiao Ming' is the name of this golden feather roc. Zhong Wen looked at the little girl who had been blindfolded, and added with a smile.
"IβCan I really do it?" I don't know how long it took, but Juma finally woke up from the shock and asked in disbelief, "Does it really want to be my partner?"
"Of course, Xiao Ming told me, it likes you very much. Zhong Wen laughed, turned his head and said a few words to Jin Yu Dapeng.
Immediately afterwards, this mighty divine bird actually lowered its head and rubbed it on Zhuma's cheek affectionately, looking very friendly.
Zhuma's heart trembled, and tears were faintly rolling in her eyes.
"This is the first time Xiao Ming has left his hometown and started a new life. Zhong Wen touched Zhuma's little brain melon, and said softly, "It is also very uneasy in its heart, from now on, you have to treat it well." β
"I, I will. Zhuma stretched out her right hand, wiped her eyes vigorously, then hugged Xiao Ming's neck, and said excitedly, "Thank you, thank you!"
"The strength of this Golden Feather Roc is probably not inferior to me. Zhong Wen's ears came with Ning Jie's sweet voice.
"Yes, Xiao Ming is an adult. Zhong Wen nodded, and gently grabbed Ning Jie's tender little hand, "The strength is not inferior to any ordinary Spirit Venerable at all. β
"With this golden feather roc here, the Kuntu clan can't take advantage of it anymore. Ning Jie gently stroked Zhong Wen's face, with a hint of admiration in her tone, "Although you claim that you will not intervene in the grievances between the two peoples, you still solve the crisis of the Dala people in this way, and you are indeed a person who values love and righteousness." β
"Really, I am so amazing?" Zhong Wen pretended to be surprised.
"In my heart, you are the greatest person in the world. Ning Jie's eyes were confused, she murmured softly, and suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed Zhong Wen's lips gently......
