Inside the cave, the waves were sparkling, smearing a layer of dim light on the cave wall.
The geyser was still spraying from time to time, stirring up countless pieces of rain, making the atmosphere extremely ambiguous, but the two people did not do anything charming.
Downton didn't have much experience in love. When faced with the girl he had a crush on, he was as clumsy as a rookie and completely at a loss.
"puff!"
Xia Luo chuckled, turned and left.
Charlotte encountered two legendary snipers. Although she managed to escape, she was too seriously injured and had to rest. Downton also needed to stabilize his realm. Therefore, although he was worried about the safety of Elaine and Hutao, he decided to stay in the hot spring cave temporarily.
Stay in the middle.
"Don't worry, they are all smart and will be fine."
Charlotte comforted.
"kindness!"
Downton cared too much about the two girls. In addition to taking care of Xia Luo's diet and daily life, he had to use meditation to distract his attention. This kind of meditation without distracting thoughts, on the contrary, fit in with the simple, vast and quiet will of the holy mountain, making people soak in it.
He absorbed more energy essence from the spring water.
call!
At the end of another three days of meditation, Downton breathed out that because there was too much magic energy in his body, some light spots actually spurted out with his breath. In the slightly dark cave, the light flickered like stars in the cold midnight.
, and like fireflies by the river in midsummer, blurry and dreamy.
"The energy here is so strong. If you stay for two or three years, you will definitely be promoted to the fifth level of Marshal!"
The Cheap God was filled with emotion. During these days, it and Homer had also received a lot of benefits and were climbing towards their peak.
"Are you kidding? I'll be satisfied if I can stay for three weeks!"
Downton rolled his eyes. This is the sacred mountain of the Orc Empire. It is already a great gift to allow humans to enter. Three years? I am afraid that in less than ten days, Lion King Thrall will regret it and order the clearance.
"Never mind it, eat and drink first!" the cheap god urged, "Quickly, dive into the water. Then take a dip!"
"Where's Charlotte?"
Downton climbed out and wiped the water stains on his body. At this time, he had a perfect figure like a statue of the ancient Greek god of war. Every muscle contained surging strength and full elasticity.
"Going on an adventure!"
The God of Cheap explained, "You idiot, hurry up. If you want to encounter such a good opportunity again, I don't know how long it will take."
Downton waved his hand and walked towards the depths of the cave.
Xian Lang's mind has never been on training, so even when she encounters the Holy Mountain Hot Spring, a holy place for meditation that others have long dreamed of, she makes no effort and instead shows great interest in exploring unknown caves.
"I don't know where I will go today?"
Although it was dark inside the tunnel and it was almost impossible to see, with Downton's eyesight there was no obstacle at all. He could even clearly see the small insects hurriedly crawling through the cracks in the rocks.
There was the sound of footsteps and occasionally there was the sound of pebbles being kicked away. It was extremely clear in this quiet cave, and then left a string of echoes and disappeared.
Gradually, the temperature cooled down. The smell of sulfur also became subtle until it disappeared, which meant that Downton was moving away from the hot spring area.
Suddenly, as he stepped out of the cave, Downton's vision suddenly opened up. A dazzling, clear light came into his eyes, causing him to subconsciously raise his arms and cover his eyes.
In just a moment, Downton relied on his strong willpower to forcibly lower his arms, activated his Overlord Body, and looked around cautiously.
If the enemy had chosen to attack at that moment, Downton would have been at a disadvantage.
There are no enemies, just large and golden wheat fields. They are located in the wilderness, like a luxurious carpet woven by the Persian orchid's fingers, endless and vast!
The gentle breeze blew, like a lover's hand, passing through the hairline and caressing the cheeks. The golden ears of wheat all lowered their cheeks shyly.
Downton couldn't help but open his hands, closed his eyes, and enjoyed this rare tranquility.
The whistling sound echoed, as if the fragrance of wheat filled the nose!
ah!
Downton could no longer restrain the emotions in his chest. He stood on the grassy hillside, put his hands to his mouth, and shouted.
The continuous shouting also allowed Downton to vent all the depression, depression, fatigue and other emotions accumulated in his heart over the past few years. Since entering the dungeon, he has begun a difficult survival. There have been troughs and glories.
His life no longer belongs to himself, but to the whole of Frankfurt. The fate of many people will be changed by his thoughts, so he works hard to live a good life for those who trust him, without daring to make any mistakes.
slack off.
"By the way, where is Charlotte?"
Downton looked over hastily and saw Xian Lang sitting on a hillside not far away with his hands on his knees and looking at him with a smile.
"I saw you were releasing your emotions, so I didn't bother you!"
The usually leisurely wolf girl was also full of laziness at this time, which perfectly complemented the endless golden wheat field.
"Are you feeling better?"
Downton scratched his hair in embarrassment and walked over. When he sat down side by side, he accidentally touched Xia Luo's shoulder. He was so surprised that he quickly moved away. As a result, the grass was stained with dew and was so slippery that he almost fell.
fall.
"careful!"
Xia Luo stretched out her hand to help.
"I'm fine!"
Downton quickly waved his hand, indicating that there was no problem.
"You should hold her hand, you idiot! It's really embarrassing for me to have a master like this!"
Fiona was absolutely furious, what a great opportunity to get closer, to watch it slip away.
"Humph, note the orphan!"
Although she was dissatisfied with Downton, Edith was still moved by Downton's innocence, and her soul shock was released, hitting Downton's nerves.
ah!
Downton, who was about to stand still, was suddenly attacked. He lost his balance and rolled down the hillside.
"ah!"
Charlotte also screamed and reached out to pull him.
"be careful!"
Fiona covered her eyes, she really couldn't bear to watch anymore. Downton was worried about hurting Charlotte and avoided her hand. She was so stupid that she still persisted.
Xian Lang stood up and grabbed Downton's finger, but due to the inertia and weight of his body, he still couldn't stop the momentum, so the two of them rolled down the hillside.
Downton used his right foot to move closer to Charlotte and held her in his arms.
My field of vision was turned upside down. Splashes of broken grass flew past the corners of my eyes.
Although she was hugged tightly, Charlotte did not struggle. Instead, she looked at Downton's concerned expression and showed a happy smile.
Xianlang understood that Downton had no affection at all and hugged him so tightly because he was worried that he would be hurt.
After the two people rolled to the bottom of the slope, they finally stopped.
In the fragrance of green grass, our eyes met.
Looking at Xia Luo's clear eyes that always seemed to be full of smiles, her long brown hair that bloomed like flowers, and her moist lips, Downton's heart skipped a beat.
Jumping straight, the emotions that have been accumulated for several years can no longer be tolerated, like a volcano, erupting at this moment.
So Downton lowered his head and kissed Xia Luo's red lips.
Summer flowers bloom, leaving fragrance on lips and teeth!
At this moment, Downton felt that it was his happiest time!
"This idiot. He's so happy after just a kiss. It's really embarrassing for men!"
Edith despises.
"Hey, don't think I don't know that you like this kind of innocent boy the most!"
Fiona exposed her sister's secret, and Edith was so embarrassed that she drew her sword and chased her.
"sorry!"
Downton raised his head. He was completely at a loss. His whole body felt like it was placed in a furnace. He felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to howl. He didn't dare to stop and quickly stood up. However, his feet slipped and he fell on Xian Lang again.
"sorry!"
This time Downton simply turned over, hid aside, got up and ran away.
"Where are you going?"
The wolf girl's warm voice came from behind.
"Well!"
Downton froze on the spot, not knowing how to answer.
"Turn back and look at me!"
Charlotte ordered.
"Are you still a man? Do you want to run away?" Fiona's contemptuous voice sounded in her heart, "Rush up, hug her, strip her naked, and possess her so that she will never forget you!"
"I think you will hunt me down for the rest of your life. You are not a good and lawful person. How can you do this kind of villainy?"
Downton rolled his eyes, but Fiona's gag calmed him down a lot.
"Did you hear it?"
Charlotte asked.
"What?"
Downton turned around and saw that Xia Luo had already sat up, tucking the hair that had fallen to her forehead behind her ears with one hand. Her eyes were looking at the continuous wheat fields.
Xia Luo didn't answer, got up, turned around and walked up the hillside.
Downton followed closely, hesitating whether to walk side by side with her.
"It's so stupid that I cried!"
Even Salomanda couldn't stand it any longer, so she directly exerted her strength, causing Downton to stumble a few times, and he stood side by side with Wise Wolf.
“The sound of harvest!”
Returning to the top of the slope, Charlotte murmured, turned around, opened her arms, held her head high, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the harvest aria.
Downton was stunned, then showed a relieved expression.
"Did you hear that? The wheat field elves are jumping for joy, singing, and blessing the world!"
Charlotte sat down, hugged her knees with her hands, and continued to look into the distance.
"Isn't this an illusion?"
Downton finally had the courage this time and sat next to him.
"no!"
Xia Luo answered firmly.
"Then after these wheat fields are harvested, won't they be able to raise a lot of orcs?"
There are many mysteries in Downton's mind. Who is cultivating so many wheat fields in the secret realm of the Holy Mountain? If the orcs knew about it, why would they launch a war to invade the human country because of famine?
"Yes!"
Xia Luo nodded, "I am the goddess of harvest, so I am sure that for farmers, these ears of wheat are the greatest happiness in the world!"
puff!
Downton spat out a mouthful of saliva, and all his thoughts were interrupted. He could only stare at Xia Luo dumbfounded, "Feng...harvest goddess?"
"To be precise, she is the daughter of the Harvest Goddess, or the second generation!"
Charlotte was very calm, as if she was talking about having grilled fish for lunch, but to Downton's ears, it was like a thunderous explosion. Not to mention his eardrums, his head was about to burst.
"Are you shocked?"
Charlotte asked back.
Downton's lips twitched a few times. If someone else had asked him, he would have done it. This is the Harvest Goddess, the most revered deity of the Orc Empire and hilly natives. Ask him to admit that she is standing in front of him.
,No, we have known each other for several years, is this not a joke?
What are gods? They are legends that are high and cannot be looked up to. They are myths that only exist in history. They are gods enshrined on altars. They overlook all living beings. A sneeze or a murmur can make the entire continent shake. They are invincible beings.
.
"Haha, I give full marks to this joke!"
Downton laughed twice.
"My mother is actually a plane traveler. In other words, our family has such a mission. The stop in the Western Continent was just a short rest. Then in the process of giving birth to me, she was kind-hearted.
She taught the Western natives how to farm, how to herd, how to use their hard-working hands to obtain food, and how to live a happy life!"
Xia Luo described it casually, as if making a daily routine, but the content of her words could cause endless waves even if it was placed in front of the kings and ministers of the nine empires.
Downton was speechless. For the gods, thousands or even tens of thousands of years may be a short rest, but for even the longest-lived ancient elves, it is still a long time, enough to make the years pass.
Changes, mountains and rivers change color!
"Then I was born and she left!"
When Xia Luo said this, although her expression was calm, Downton, who was emotionally delicate, could hear the deep sadness in it, so subconsciously, he reached out and hugged Xian Lang. This had nothing to do with love, he just wanted to comfort her,
Protect her.
"Why doesn't she take you away?"
There was silence for a long time. After Charlotte was no longer so sad, Downton asked.
"I don't know, maybe I can't let go of those kind-hearted natives, and want me to inherit the title of Harvest Goddess and continue to help them. You know, my law power has a strong ability to interfere with nature!"
Charlotte explained.
Downton nodded, Xian Lang's natural magic was so miraculous that it might even surpass the Pope's Crown in the Orc Temple.
"It may also be because of the fate of our family. As plane travelers, we are destined to search for the journey back home throughout our lives!"
Xia Luo was very sad. She said it was fate, but in fact it was also a curse.
"When my mother left, she left behind a soul clone. She taught me everything!" Xia Luo smiled, "Although it's not true, those years were my happiest days. What did I learn?
It's called maternal love, and it made me know that somewhere in this multiverse, there are people who are exactly like me, and they are waiting for me to go back!"
"When I was a kid, I often saw that your Wolf and Spice grocery store was closed, sometimes for several years. Were you looking for a way home at that time?"
Downton wanted to let go of Charlotte, but the wolf girl had no intention of leaving.
Maybe it was because she was recovering from a serious injury and her mind was extraordinarily fragile, or maybe it was because she had been holding it in for hundreds of years. The years of loneliness made her crazy and she wanted someone to talk to. In short, she leaned in Downton's arms and enjoyed this rare opportunity.
calm.
"did you find it?"
Although the wolf girl did not answer, Downton knew the answer. (To be continued...)
ps: The interaction in this chapter is really difficult to write. I will post a separate chapter later to introduce Xia Luo!
