Chapter 1 Xuanyuan Zhicheng(1/2)
As the autumn sun sets, the dazzling light is like a circling dragon. The golden light shines on the earth, like the red-hot red moon.
This is the Elemental Continent, which seems beautiful and peaceful;
But who would have thought that there would be unknown dangers in such a beautiful continent?
——Dragon Clan.
Are there really dragons in this world?
"Dad, how long have the dragons been alive? Are they big? Are they powerful? Why are they no longer here now?"
Xuanyuan Zhicheng, who is only 10 years old, is full of curiosity about everything in the world and urgently wants to know the answer;
Dad used to be a warrior who killed dragons and strange beasts, but why did he give up this profession now? He would rather be an ordinary villager than a warrior who bravely kills enemies.
Dragon clan?
It is something that has existed for thousands of years. Human beings are just slaves in front of the dragon clan and have no power to resist.
Its power was enough to swallow up entire mountains and rivers, and level the world, as the rampant dragon clan plunged the entire world into panic. In the end, a group of amazing people wiped them out and sealed them in various places.
"Of course they are big. They have survived for thousands of years. The small ones are several times bigger than us, and the big ones are higher than a mountain."
"Really! It sounds so scary. Fortunately, the Dragon Clan has been sealed. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to see my father."
"Du Miao, although the dragon clan has been sealed, it has always survived with us. There are some things you will know when you grow up."
Hey, being an adult is really mysterious.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng had never seen any real dragons, or even alien beasts, but he did not expect that the arrival of this day would cause everything to change dramatically, including the death of his clan members...
——Bang!
Suddenly a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, piercing the sky;
In an instant, there was lightning and thunder, and there was a heavy downpour. It was as dark as the end of the world, and it seemed to be announcing something.
The sky was dark and frightening, but it added an even more eerie atmosphere, seeming to exaggerate the red moon-like scene.
"It's raining. You have to go back quickly, otherwise your parents will be worried."
I was such a fool that I didn't bring an umbrella. I had no choice but to run home;
Xuanyuan Zhicheng complained softly and ran wildly in the rain, regardless of how heavy the rain was. It didn't matter even if he got wet all over. He just hoped to go back as soon as possible.
On the way back, he saw an agile figure running towards him. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be his best friend Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi is a big yellow dog. He has no friends. He has already regarded Xiao Qi as his good friend. He smelled a familiar smell from all the way and ran over.
Xiaoqi flew forward happily, wagging its tail excitedly, and holding an umbrella in its mouth. It was soaked all over, but even so, it couldn't help but be excited because it saw its little one.
Owner.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng was extremely happy because of this. He happily touched Xiao Qi's head and stroked his sticky hair. He said in a very gentle tone:
"Xiao Qi, didn't you tell me to wait for me at home? Why did you run out?"
He noticed the umbrella in Xiaoqi's mouth and couldn't help but squat down and take it away.
"Xiaoqi, did you give me an umbrella specially? Thank you for your hard work. Look, you're even wet."
Xiao Qi now looked like a child begging for praise, and Xuanyuan Zhicheng couldn't help but smile happily at him.
"Woof!"
Xiao Qi shook the water droplets on his body, so that it would feel better, but it splashed all over Xuanyuan Zhicheng, and he could only stop subconsciously.
"Okay, stop making trouble, I'll go back and clean it up for you."
Perhaps because they had been together for a long time, Xuanyuan Zhicheng understood instantly. Seeing the other person's tail wagging excitedly, it seemed that he was in a good mood today.
"Xiao Qi, you are so considerate. Come on, let's go back together!"
The only way home is through mountain paths, but it has already become a habit.
Although it was daytime, under the influence of such a thunder and lightning environment, it felt more like night, adding to the original weird atmosphere.
"Hey, Xiao Qi, have you ever seen real dragons and strange beasts? I really want to see them once."
Xuanyuan Zhicheng murmured softly while holding an umbrella, and held Xiaoqi in his other hand. Fortunately, it was not very big, otherwise it would be quite difficult to hold it with one hand;
Just as he was about to continue saying something, a strong smell of blood hit his nostrils.
What a smell, so fishy... It seems like there is some chewing sound.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng subconsciously covered his mouth and nose, the pungent smell was unbearable for him.
Let alone him, a dog's sense of smell is already very sensitive, and the reaction to smelling something like this would definitely be greater.
It broke away from Xuanyuan Zhicheng's arms and became angry at the same time. It kept howling and warning somewhere in the grass, seeming to warn the other person to leave quickly.
What's the smell? It's so unpleasant... it's suffocating. Is someone hunting? No, it shouldn't be possible. The smell is so strong.
Although he didn't know what was going on, his strong curiosity forced Xuanyuan Zhicheng to step forward and take a look.
What's more, he is only ten years old now and is in the naughty stage. Like other boys, he is full of curiosity about everything in the world.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng slowly pushed aside the grass, and then discovered the so-called truth.
A monster that looked neither human nor animal was eating flesh and blood. Due to the extensive damage, it was not clear whether the deceased was a human or an animal.
He subconsciously took a step back. A normal person would have been so frightened that he would have screamed and even forgotten to run away;
As for this monster, it seemed as if it had noticed him, its fierce eyes meeting Xuanyuan Zhicheng's weak and helpless eyes.
Living person?
Great, we can add another meal today
The monster opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Xuanyuan Zhicheng...
A strong sense of oppression came to his head. Facing this ugly monster, Xuanyuan Zhicheng roared like crazy. He didn't care about the umbrella in his hand and threw it on the ground casually. At the same time, he didn't forget to run for his life.
.
Now he has no way to think about anything else. There is only one thing in his mind, and that is to escape!
"Xiao Qi, run quickly!"
Are you lying? Are there really strange beasts? I'm not just talking casually.
I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore!
No matter who it is, is there anyone? Come and save me!
No matter how much Xuanyuan Zhicheng tried to call for help, it was useless.
If the speed is even a second slower, it is very likely that they will become the monster's meal, so they have no way to stop.
I can only tell myself to hurry up, hurry up, and hurry up, and I must live well!
No one among them can die, they can only run as hard as they can.
You know, this is just a child and a dog. The running speeds of adults and children are different;
What's more, the opponent is a perverted and ugly monster! Since he is a ferocious and huge monster, he must be agile enough.
You obviously have the ability to kill them but don't use it. Could it be that you are obsessed with the thrill of chasing prey?
We don’t have time to think about so much, let alone who can guess the monster’s thoughts?
Xuanyuan Zhicheng turned around and glanced at the monster behind him, which was getting closer and closer to them, and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
He only heard the sound of rapid breathing, and he ran with all his strength. He didn't know how long he ran.
No, if you run out of energy, you will be exhausted if you keep running like this. When you run out of energy, the monster will definitely pounce on you and eat you.
On the contrary, this monster seems to be full of energy.
There is nothing but endless excitement and killing in his eyes, and he can't wait to devour the person in front of him.
No, the only way is to find a place to hide.
Running like this is not an option. Even running home will only bring disaster to the people in the village and bring trouble to everyone.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng turned to look at Xiao Qi who was running all the way, and couldn't help shouting to him:
"Xiao Qi! Come with me, let's find a place to hide together."
"Woof!"
Xiao Qi had been following him for such a long time, and he understood instantly, running away side by side with one person and one dog.
Great! There is a bush ahead, with many grasses tens of centimeters high. As long as Xiao Qi squats down or lies down, he will not be able to find it.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng asked Xiao Qi to go over first, and he peeled away the grass to escape, hiding his breath.
In order to avoid being discovered, he walked carefully with his waist bent the whole time, for fear of being discovered by this monster.
Of course, this monster is not stupid either. When he saw the artificial fluctuations in the grass, he smiled wildly, and his expression even became abnormally distorted.
Do you think I can't catch you like this? You're so stupid, living flesh and blood, here I come!
The monster's eyes were filled with endless excitement, and he walked with clumsy steps towards a place not far from Xuanyuan Zhicheng.
