Chapter 26: The Son of Man

I screamed, bounced off my chair, and cowered behind my brother. When you look closely, the black shadow looks embarrassed, with a blue nose and swollen face, and it is Jicheng!

"Jicheng! you...... What's wrong with your face?!" I asked, jumping out from behind my brother and jumping up in front of him. The whole family stood up.

Jicheng hugged his fists and bowed slightly to the adult, and said, "The adult is polite, and the lady is polite." In Shimoyosejo Castle, I took the liberty to visit. Without waiting for the adults to respond, he turned to me and hurriedly asked, "Meiyi, are you all right?" Everything started because of me, Jicheng ...... in his heart" His tone was sincere, but his cheeks were swollen, his lips turned out, and his speech was slurred, which was really pitiful and ridiculous.

"Jicheng, did you fall, why did you fall so hard!" Hua Hai walked over, his words full of concern, but he stopped before he could get closer, and his body was not close. The elder brother looked at Jicheng coldly and did not speak. The lady said, "I'll go get the medicine box." He nodded slightly as he walked past Yoshijo. The adult frowned slightly and asked, "Why, they still can't tolerate you?"

Jicheng smiled bitterly and said calmly: "There may be a bit of a misunderstanding in this, but after all, they are the adults and ladies of Jicheng, without them, how could Jicheng be today." Besides, in the coming year, if the city is lucky, they will not deny me. At this point, I felt my sister's body sway slightly, and when I really looked at her, she was listening carefully to the other party's speech, her eyes were focused, and her face was considerate.

"You're jumping out of the car?" the brother asked suddenly.

"Yes. "Send the city to answer. Glanced at me.

"For the sake of good intentions?" asked the elder brother again.

“...... Be. "Send the city to answer. Didn't look at me this time.

"You have a one-in-one chance of becoming the king of the future, and you will take that risk for the sake of good intentions?" the brother continued. The tone was cold, as if there was disgust.

"Why not, as long as I think it's worth it. Yoshiro replied. The tone is neither humble nor arrogant, not as respectful as just now.

"Why does my brother ask endlessly, can you let him sit down first?" I pulled Yoshiro over, let him sit in my chair, and pushed the milk cup in front of him. He grinned, "I don't need it anymore." "Still laughing, swollen like that and still playing handsome.

"Jicheng," the lord sat down, facing Jicheng, Zhengse said: "No matter why you came to my Red Fortress, abandoned by the adults in the clan, or thinking about friends, these are not the point, from the moment the Holy King announced the new king candidate, you and my daughter Huahai have become rivals, today I will still treat you politely, until tomorrow, you are each other's opponents, there is only one winner, Huahai will not be soft on you, and I hope you don't underestimate the enemy, because my daughter I know that you can only show the greatest respect for her if you do your best." As for Meiyi, although she is not of my race for the time being, she is one with her sister, and if you want to gain some advantage by playing the 'friendship card' of Meiyi, then you should rest early. ”

Jicheng wanted to defend himself, and his swollen face was a mess. I can't bear to look at him.

The lady came in at some point, so she took the ointment and wiped it for Jicheng. He didn't say a word, but occasionally looked up at the adult, and there was still love in his eyes.

"You've seen Meiyi, she's fine. Thank you very much for your concern. My family still has something to discuss. Madame has arranged for you to sleep, so go and rest. "My lord said to Yoshijo, gentle but unquestionable.

Jicheng stood up and looked at the adult, and the adult also looked back at him, and the two of them were speechless for a while. Jicheng bowed deeply, turned around, and didn't look at me again.

I felt sad for no reason. It seems that wherever he goes, he is disliked and driven away. Why.

"That kid is quite complicated, and the rumors that the adults of his clan have abandoned him do not seem to be groundless......," said the adult.

"What the hell is the rumor?" I interrupted.

"When adults speak, don't interject. Madame stood beside me, put her arm on my shoulder, and whispered.

"Why do you want to do this to him, don't you think he's pitiful?!" I asked aloud, ignoring Madame.

"You've only been awake for a day, what do you know!" the adult scolded.

"I know, of course I know, I know that you are all blood, you don't need to eat, you suck blood, dark and evil! I'm different from you, I'm human......" Before I finished speaking, my brother rushed over and covered my mouth.

Without saying a word, the adult walked around the round table and walked in front of me, raising his hand to chop it off, but Madame and Huahai hurriedly stopped him, and my brother took me in his arms and protected my head. There was silence in the hall for a while, and I only heard the "thump" sound coming from my brother's chest, as if an impatient villain was locked up inside, trying to escape.

Footsteps. Seated. Sigh.

My brother's hand gradually let go, and I timidly looked up. They were all seated. I don't dare look at the faces of adults.

"Chuanyun, I don't know how many hours you have been here, where you have taken Meiyi, who you have met, and what you have been through...... Yes, that's right, we're all blood, living on blood, and you, Meiyi, are human. The adult said, in an indifferent tone.

"But, is there anything to rejoice about? Humans, or Bloods, are alive but struggling. A thousand years is a long time, but for some people, a day, from morning to dusk, is not a day?" said the adult bitterly.

I couldn't understand what he was saying. I just felt that his mind was like ashes. It's not like the majestic spirit on weekdays.

"More than 2,000 years ago, when I was young, I was still a 'human', and a war broke out between the five races and the blood clan, led by humans, and the war was tragic and protracted. I followed the 'Son of Men' in bloody battles and great achievements. "The adult's voice was strange, and I couldn't help but look at him, and there was a glow in his eyes, like an out-of-body soul.

"Son of Man?" I almost cried out. That's the second time I've heard his name.

"Yes, 'Son of Men,' he is the leader of the five tribes, my friend and master. Although I was born on the same day, the same month, and the same year, he was of noble birth, and I was the son of a servant. We grew up together, and he never despised me, and he was like a brother to me. He was brilliant and resourceful, and soon after the war with the Bloods, he was elected leader, and I followed him all the way, without any second thoughts. The two of us are perfectly matched, invincible, and have fought a few beautiful battles!" the more the adults talked, the higher their voices were, thinking about the scenery of the past, their cheeks were shining, and they were excited.

"The Battle of Sphinxburg, we fought very hard. Numerous casualties were immense. It was the home of an ancient Bloodline, powerful and fearless of anything, almost invincible, even able to withstand the blazing daylight of the day—a ability that their Bloodline is said to possess. One day at noon, the sun was scorching, and we were exhausted after several days of fighting, and I was so sleepy that I actually fell asleep in the sun. I was awakened by the cold claws and sharp stinging, and when I opened my eyes, I saw a snow-white face and a pair of brownish-red eyes, a boy with hard nails that pierced into my flesh, and he was startled when I opened my eyes, but maybe he was too hungry, and although he was a little scared, he did not hesitate to break my head aside, showed his fangs, and bit my head when he bent his head. I don't know if I was scared stupid, or if I was cast a spell, and I was so weak that I couldn't resist at all, and I was about to become his prey," the adult paused. I was so thrilled that I forgot to breathe.

"Just when I was in despair, Wuya, oh, it was the 'son of man', who came out of nowhere, I guess he didn't even think about it, he just pounced on me and the blood boy, tore him, and tried to make him let go of me. But the boy was already hungry and red-eyed, and his animalistic nature had risen, and he would not let go, and dragged me towards the dark underground......" Madame listened nervously, and at once reached out and grabbed the adult's hand. It seems that this is the first time that an adult has spoken about this.

"I was paralyzed, and Wuya had no weapon in hand at the time, and could barely subdue the Blood Clan, when suddenly, Wuya shouted, and both the boy and I were stunned. ”
