Chapter 3: The Fallen Empire
The stars, one after the other, appeared with big bright eyes blinking in the distant sky. People often place their hopes there, but where is my hope?
The boy felt that he was very useless, not only could he not protect his beloved girl, but also caused her to be injured, thinking that he would not be able to see it if he hid himself?
The boy suddenly hated himself incomparably, he had never hated himself like this since he was gradually sensible, even if he was often ridiculed by children, he didn't care if he was treated as a fool by everyone, but today he really couldn't tolerate his incompetence anymore.
"Am I a fool? β
"It's that I'm useless!
Hmmm-
A thin figure, a strange costume, kneeling on all fours, and a shrug shoulder, unable to help himself.
"Your Majesty...... Old Slave ...... Definitely"
Hmmm-
The hideous face flashed, with bright red and piercing blood, and the centipede-like terrifying scar lay on the face, directly from the corner of the eyebrow to the chin, with expectation, firmness, persistence and hope in the eyes, the mouth opened and closed, and spit out the last words of life.
"I'm sorry...... Your Highness...... Alive...... Hopeful"
Hmmm-
The dark ruined temple, the night was hazy, and a majestic tall figure wearing broken armor strode away, and the wind blew, like a whining cry, seeing him off.
"General...... No...... Let's go ...... Come back."
One by one, one by one, countless familiar pictures flashed in my mind, and countless people shouted in my hearts, but they were all intermittent, and they couldn't be spliced together.
What the hell is going on? What the hell are they talking about, and why am I so sad if I don't understand? Why?
Why can't I even remember the things engraved in my head, I'm really useless, and I can't protect my beloved Xin'er.
Why am I so useless?
Shi Yu looked up at the starry sky, screaming silently, and his expression was in a trance.
"Ahem" There was a violent dry cough, and the already weak body was even more delicate because of the injury, and the young man covered his chest and gasped with difficulty.
Not far away, a slender figure hid in the shadow of the tree, clutching the delicate pink fist, making a difficult choice, taking a step, and retracting again, under the starlight, there seemed to be something bright in the eyes reflecting the light.
After a long time, the boy calmed down. Shi Yu groped in his chest for a while, and then slowly pulled out a dragon-shaped jade pendant with a dull luster and a simple style.
This is what I have carried since I was a child, and it is the only item on my body that can be related to before I came to Xiaoshi Village, and it may be related to my life experience.
It's just that it's worthless at first glance, and the Maocai couple didn't have the idea of fighting it, so they have always carried it on Shi Yu.
Shi Yu took the jade pendant and flipped it over, he had done this action many times before, and he didn't gain the slightest, and this time it was the same.
It's just an ordinary object, without the slightest feature, maybe only those who have seen it can recognize it, and it's useless for the current stone jade.
As for the real background, is it important?
It's useless, it's all useless, hopefully, not at all.
Shi Yu suddenly held the jade pendant in his hand and used all the strength of his body, as if he was venting the unwillingness and resentment in his heart.
I didn't notice that the blood on the palm that had been scratched because of the instinct to protect the ground with my hands was constantly soaked into the dragon-shaped jade pendant, and the luster flashed, and then suddenly bloomed, and the jade pendant seemed to come to life all of a sudden, like a coiled dragon.
As if he had fully woken up, the dragon opened his mouth, and slowly spit out a golden air flow into the palm of the young man's hand, and then went all the way up along the meridians in the young man's body, passed through the neck, and finally went straight to the brain domain.
Silently, silently.
The desperate teenager suddenly felt a warm current into his mind, a warm, soft, and comfortable feeling, and then the originally chaotic and chaotic pictures in his mind suddenly flew quickly and combined, just like a moment, familiar pictures, friendly characters, and complete events that shook the heart......
The endless pavilions, the splendid halls, the wanton flying dragon splitting the sky, the domineering and majestic figures, the eyes are rare and gentle.
Xing'er, you are born with a strong bloodline, and your talent is rare in ancient and modern times. Cultivate well, and in the future, you will sweep the six countries with your father, subdue all the sects, and dominate the world!"
"Well, Erchen will definitely work hard to cultivate, and strive to become a master of the world like his father as soon as possible, and help his father sweep all directions and dominate the world. β
......
"Father, the son has already refined his bones and started to wash the marrow!
"My emperor is really powerful, he is born with all the pulses, he has only been practicing for one year, and he has already refined his bones before he is four years old. My good emperor is worthy of being my father's little baby. β
"Hee-hee-hee, giggle-giggle......"
......
The mountain pavilion and water pavilion, the rockery jade bridge, the staggered planning, the singing and dancing.
Several figures stand in the center, handsome and heroic.
"Second brother, fifth brother, starling brother, you don't even call me here to be happy, it's true. No, my young heart has been hit hard, so hurry up and compensate me with the treasure, or I will tell my father to go." β
"Xiao Jiu, you little slippery head, we finally got out of the customs and relaxed, and you caught it. said, are you okay, you are caught every time, and you don't let go of blackmailing your royal brothers every time. Alas, I'm afraid of you, I heard that you are going to start washing the marrow, this 10,000-year-old snow lotus, you can take it. β
"Thank you, second brother!
......
"Xing'er, Father Emperor has just destroyed the Purple Cloud Empire and several kingdoms, and those forces can't sit still. The five empires of Qingtian, Baizhan, Sun Never Sets, Sacred, and Black Yao have secretly formed an alliance, and united the family and the big faction to prepare to do something to my Dragon God Empire, just in case, the father needs to send you away first, in case the father and emperor encounter an accident, you will realize the wish of great unification for your father in the future. β
"Father, I don't want to leave you, I want to fight with you......!"
"Xiao Jiu, listen to my father's words, hurry up! There are eight imperial brothers here!"
"I don't, I want to stay, father, father, eldest brother, second brother...... Starling!"
"Your Majesty, the old slave will definitely send His Highness to the Chaotian Holy Sect safely, definitely!"
......
Countless pairs of greedy eyes are staring at one goal, going forward and backwards, endlessly.
Approaching, dozens of figures were flickering and staggering, the sword light was cold, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, flying sand and gravel, and thunder exploded.
A hideous face flashed, with bright red and piercing blood, centipede-like terrifying scars lying on the face, directly from the corners of the eyebrows to the chin, with anticipation, firmness, persistence and hope in the eyes, the mouth opened and closed, and spit out the last words of life.
"I'm sorry Your Highness, my subordinates are useless, and I can't continue to protect Your Highness. Your Highness, you must work hard to live, you are the hope of the Dragon God Empire!"
......
"The Dragon God Empire in the middle of the day has been destroyed, alas! Thinking that the overlord is peerless, his style is unparalleled, and he has broken through to the extreme realm of Tongtian in one fell swoop, and is comparable to the Lord of the Temple and the Holy Land Lord, and the eight princes are also all amazingly talented, and they have surpassed many strong people of the older generation at a young age, ranking among the top in the mainland...... Alasββ, alas!"
"The five empires unite with the eight top sects, the nine great saint families, a total of dozens of super powers, plus the five major alien races are also secretly involved, how can a dragon god empire be able to stop it, even if the overlord is a world-strong man in the Tongtian Realm, after all, the tiger can't stand the wolves!"
"I heard that the overlord is not dead, he was sealed!, and in addition to the nine princes with the highest talent, five of the eight princes were killed in battle, and two were sealed and imprisoned, and only the seven princes were finally saved by the Chaotian Holy Sect. β
......
The cold wind is howling, the night shadows are heavy, and in the bleak mountain ruined temple, a small figure is curled up and lying on the stone bed covered with thick thatch, and a pair of childish eyebrows on the little face like a pink carved jade are tightly wrinkled together like an adult, which is extremely cute but pitiful, and I can't help but feel distressed when I look at it.
"Father, eldest brother, second brother...... Starling!"
As if in a terrible nightmare, the little man stretched out his immature hands and scratched at the void for a while, but he couldn't catch anything, and before he knew it, the corners of his eyes were full of crystal tears.
By the stone bed, there was no bonfire, and in the darkness, I could occasionally see two figures standing on the side through the faint light outside, one tall and majestic, the other thin and weak, without words, just standing there straight, like two sculptures in a broken temple, quietly guarding under the cold wind.
The cold wind was bleak, and there was a whimpering cry through the broken temple, and the majestic man in the broken armor gradually moved away, and the resolute and resolute tall back in the dim light had an indescribable tragedy, perhaps it was to regard death as home.
......
Only the last person remained, and he was so thin.
Surrounded by dozens of black shadows, they let out a hideous and unbridled laugh one by one.
"Your Highness, I'll stop them desperately later, you take the opportunity to run quickly, find a hidden place to hide, you must escape, and live strongly." β
The little figure clenched its teeth, blood slowly overflowed, and finally nodded and said, "Well, I will definitely live." β
......
On the edge of the cliff, there were several figures chasing behind them, but they were originally very strong and staggered a little on foot at this time. But despair still struck like a boundless tide, surging, and there was no way out.
"Ahem-quack, little rabbit cub, see how you are still running now? Aren't you capable, keep running! But the little guy in the marrow washing realm, you have the ability to grow wings and fly down." β
"Shut up, get on him, catch him!"
"Ahh
"Ahh
