Chapter 162: The Sunset Warms My Cheeks (Part I)
Before coming, Shu Shuang's shoes were very clean. Girls in love brush their shoes more often than other girls, but after walking so many roads, they are covered with mud, which is in stark contrast to the clean colored gravel on the ground. Shu Shuang, who was about to take the lotus step, retracted his steps, and his vitality shook off the mud and sand, and then he stepped forward again.
This kind of thing is harmless, but Shu Shuang's carefulness is likable, especially the middle-aged patriarch who still has charm. Seeing her like this, she had some expectations, so that Shu Shuang would not regret it after she really grabbed the stone.
Walking on the colored stone and looking up, Shu Shuang personally experienced the enormity of the Soul Creek. I don't know how many clansmen there are in the Lanze Spirit Bird, but the colored stones in it are like billions of stars, strong or weak, sending out some rhythms.
This was the first time Shu Shuang had seen such a scene, and she was fascinated by a different kind of stream. What kind of spirit bird will she get? Is it fatter, or is it slender, or is it a young girl, or maybe an uncle. Will she be chirping at her feet, as Ju Mang was when she was a child?, still standing deep in the contract space, motionless, only the dew running across her face and dripping into the calm pond.
Shu Shuang wasn't sure that she would succeed, no one could have expected the outcome of this kind of thing, but she was obsessed, as if she was attracted by an indescribable dream. Xia Xiao looked at it and was distracted. He is always distracted when Shu Shuang is concentrating on one thing, as if Shu Shuang does not exist, because it is too perfect and seems to be ethereal.
The colorful mist is like a gauze skirt, wrapped in soothing frost. She walked, and walked directly below the Soul Creek, her fair skin showing a flawless look under the hue of the colored stones.
Raising her wrist, Shu Shuang was about to dance, but even if her delicate body stood on tiptoe, it was difficult to touch Soul Creek. It's some distance from itself, but Shushuang is not in a hurry.
"Come on. ”
When whispering, a halo of multicolored light shrouded it like a cloud falling from the sky. In an instant, the light in front of me was strange, and there was no previous sacredness and beauty, but a little more mysterious.
Shu Shuang wasn't sure if she was keeping her eyes open, because she could only see the blurry colors, and the stones in them were coming towards her quickly, but they slashed by, without stopping, without muttering to herself.
Outside, Xia Xiao's eyes were filled with fog, and countless meteors traveled through it. And Shu Shuang spread her arms, as if she was about to embrace everything.
"This is a test of fate, little master don't worry. ”
The patriarch smiled slightly, and was even more joyful when Xia Xiao saluted. It seems that the people brought by His Highness are indeed extraordinary and courteous.
Destiny and Chuan Lian stood side by side, but they didn't worry much about Shu Shuang. If this kind of thing is done, it is fate, and if it is not successful, it will change to another race, and it is not a big deal. But Xia Xiao's eyes when he looked at Shu Shuang were always doting and gentle, so he couldn't learn. However, Destiny vaguely felt that Bingfeng also needed that kind of look, after all, she was still quite happy when she took the initiative to say goodbye to her.
Coming to Xia Xiao's side, Destiny wants to find experience, and Shu Shuang estimates that it will take a while.
"Hey, how did you make that look?"
"Which?"
"It's the one you saw Shu Shuang just now. ”
The surrounding trees are verdant, reflecting Xia Xiao more vigorously, and a little less cold than usual.
"When you feel that you love Fenglu enough, you can naturally show that kind of feeling. ”
"Love, if it weren't for you, I would never have said that word in the Beast Forest, it's ridiculous. ”
Destiny frowned, a little ashamed. The beast never needs love, it just needs to be strong enough. He and Feng Lu are not together because of love, but because of the marriage contract, because they are very strong with each other.
"You're a member of the academy now, and you're only coming back temporarily. ”
Suddenly, Xia Xiao understood why the academy had such a transcendent attraction. It is equivalent to a home, which allows people to be free from restraints, free and free. Destiny was silent, he felt that what Xia Xiao said was wrong.
A light flashed in his eyes, and Xia Xiao, who was about to say something to the Mandate of Heaven, turned his head sharply and looked at Shu Shuang.
In the midst of the colorful clouds, a stone came from a high place, broke through many obstacles, dragged up a streamer, and rushed towards Shu Shuang. The latter sensed a hint of danger, and frowned slightly, for its movement was much stronger than the stone that had come before. But spread out the palms of your hands, but grasp a trace of warmth.
The colored stone has light, breaking through the colorful mist, which surprises the old patriarch.
"Since...... Can you really catch it?"
As the patriarch of the Lanze Spirit Bird, she knew best what Soul Creek represented. This is the good blessing left by the ancestors, and the wonderful fate can be sensed by it. And Shu Shuang, a human being, can not only grasp the stone in it, or that one? It seems that her race is about to set off a storm.
When the mist rose into the air, Shu Shuang was exposed. Xia Xiao wanted to run to her side to see how she was doing, but she couldn't help but stand still.
Holding the stone in both hands, Shu Shuang slowly walked back, a thick smile on her face. In this way, she can save a lot of time, and more importantly, she can really find the wild beast that she is destined for. But he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he restrained his emotions. As soon as she came and left, she took away the clansmen of Lan Ze Spirit Bird, and if she was the patriarch, she would also be unhappy.
Destiny looked at the patriarch and asked:
"Who is this stone?"
"Your Highness, she will come later. ”
The Mandate of Heaven is not particularly familiar with the Lanze Spirit Bird, after all, it has little to do with his dragon clan. But he had also heard some about this spirit stone. It is said that the bigger the spirit stone, the stronger the strength, and the stone in Shu Shuang's hand is not small! But who should that kind of strength be the spirit bird? The Mandate of Heaven couldn't think of it for a while.
Walking in front of Xia Xiao, Shu Shuang spread out his hands. The stone was a simple red glow, a match made in heaven with her palm, because it was the same size.
The whole process is only a moment, but the ending is unexpected. Xia Xiao's palm landed on the top of Shu Shuang's head, and then led him towards the patriarch. There is a destiny, and the patriarch of Lan Ze Spirit Bird will definitely not regret it, but if the spirit contract is really signed, she must openly agree.
"Patriarch. ”
Shu Shuang bent down, revealing the red stone, as if it were a kind of proof.
When the Lan Ze patriarch saw this, his mood was complicated, and his face was pale, but in the end, he was calm and had to accept this reality. As the patriarch, she naturally had to abide by the rules left by her ancestors, so she said in a soft voice:
"This is fate, please wait a while for Your Highness and the three of you, the little girl will come soon. ”
As soon as these words came out, not to mention Xia Xiao and the others, Destiny was stunned. No wonder the patriarch's face was so ugly, it turned out to be her daughter, it seems that this spiritual deed can't be signed! She intends to back down, and the destiny of heaven must understand the rules.
The creation of the Spirit Contract is known as the disaster of the desolate beast, and the previous human beings have realized the power of the five elements by themselves. But after the spirit contract appeared, it became a shortcut to cultivation, and he directly obtained the power of the five elements by signing the spirit contract with the desolate beast. At the beginning, humans tamed the beasts, although it was a tragedy for the latter, but at least the sanity was still there, and there was communication. But later, the cunning humans did not want to be influenced by the sanity of the desolate beast in their body, so they erased their sanity and eradicated the danger.
In another sense, it is crazy for a beast to sign a spiritual pact with a human. Just as a woman runs away from home with a man, no matter what, the beneficiary is the latter, and the one who suffers is always a wild beast! Therefore, how can a mother be willing to give up her daughter and sign a spiritual pact with a strange human?
The Mandate of Heaven brought Xia Xiao and the three of them, and he should not compensate him. But before he could speak, Shu Shuang had already handed out the red stone with both hands.
"Patriarch, I am very offended, and I hope you will forgive me. ”
"You're not signing the spirit pact anymore?"
The hypocrisy of human beings, the beasts of the wilderness see it most clearly. Even if the patriarch still respected these friends of His Highness, he was sneering in his heart. Could it be that she really didn't sign it? It's nothing more than a set of etiquette, and what she says is completely different from what she actually does. Ke Shushuang was full of apologies and said:
"If I don't sign it, I can choose the path of the talisman master's cultivation. ”
Compared with the extremely tall patriarch, Shu Shuang is like a child, she is a child herself! Her spiritual power is not outstanding, and she may discover herself and become a talisman master like her master. Compared with this kind of signing the spiritual deed of love, she still thinks that it is better to take that road, even if it is hard, it is not against her will.
The old patriarch didn't expect Shu Shuang to say this, and when he looked at the Mandate of Heaven, he also meant the same thing as Shu Shuang. He is a desolate beast, and it is impossible for him to force the Lanze patriarch to hand over his daughter.
Although the Mandate of Heaven does not completely resist the spiritual contract, it is not advocated. Because the spirit contract is completed, it will lose the most important dignity and freedom of the desolate beast.
Xia Xiao and Chuan Lian also supported Shu Shuang's decision, and the patriarch felt guilty for his previous thoughts, but his daughter was not an ordinary clansman. If you can exchange ordinary clansmen for a favor from His Highness and an outstanding student from Ning Seminary, it would be cost-effective. But his own daughter, who is not holding it in the palm of her hand and holding it above her head, how can she be willing to suffer such grievances?
"I also hope that the patriarch will take back the spirit stone. ”
The old patriarch remained elegant and never panicked.
"It's better to wait for the little girl to come, and she will make her own decisions. ”
"This ......"
Shu Shuang looked at Xia Xiao, a little embarrassed, she really didn't like to do such things. That delicate face seems to be able to wring out water. Seeing this, Xia Xiao comforted:
"Since there is fate, I have to respect her opinion, or follow the patriarch's wishes, wait a while!"
Shu Shuang nodded and sat on the wooden chair outside Soul Creek.
"Your Highness, it's a loss. ”
After the Lan Ze patriarch left, the Mandate of Heaven smiled and said:
"Your luck is really good. ”
"No, I didn't. ”
Shu Shuang held the stone in her hand, and liked the warmth on it very much, but her face was a little unhappy.
Xia Xiao asked the destiny:
"Have you seen the daughter of the patriarch?"
"I haven't seen her, but I've heard that she has two daughters with diametrically opposite temperaments, one manic and the other mild-mannered. ”
Listening to this adjective, Chuan Lian was quite happy, even proud. The education of the academy is so efficient, it will not speak like this when the Mandate of Heaven first comes.
"Hopefully it's the latter one. ”
What Xia Xiao said was what Shu Shuang thought in his heart, but Destiny quipped:
"The mania in Lan Ze's spirit bird's mouth is at most a little worse tempered, unlike my dragon clan, who can poke a hole in the sky. ”
"Now is not the time for you to show superiority. ”
Destiny always felt that Xia Xiao was angry when he spoke, but he didn't bother with him, just looked at Chuan Lian, as if he was asking for instructions.
"Since Shu Shuang chose the path of the talisman, it will be fine after that, it's still early, and I'll be a guest of my dragon clan in a while?"
"Yes, all when you get home. ”
Chuan Lian agreed, and the Mandate of Heaven said to Xia Xiao:
"I'm sure you haven't seen a dragon castle yet, it's not comparable to a human temple. ”
"Can you see your people?"
"Absolutely. ”
Heavenly Destiny smiled secretly, and when Xia Xiao arrived at the land of his dragon clan, he would definitely sigh. And he will be the future king of the dragon clan and even the entire Desolate Beast Forest. Beside him, Xia Xiao's eyes were silent, and he pondered for a long time, even if he went to the Dragon Clan, he couldn't find the black dragon that sealed him. But it's also great to be able to go for a trip.
