At this point, the light and shadow tells a warm and touching story. The abandoned dragon beast finally met the person who was willing to hatch it, as if guided by fate. And the man who lost his eldest son was also hatching it.
When he got rid of the little beast, he also got rid of the grief of losing his son.
But everyone knows that this story must end in tragedy, so Shade originally thought that the dragon and the people would spend an ordinary and happy time together, and then something unexpected would happen to lead the story to a heart-wrenching ending, but that was not the case.
It takes a very long time for a young dragon to grow into a young dragon, and even dragon beasts cannot grow up easily. But at least in their infancy, as long as they get enough nutrition, it is very easy for them to grow in size.
So the light and shadow continued to flow, and in just half a year, the two palm-sized things grew into a human-sized creature. The man was not afraid of it, but instead cut down the giant tree where the dragon egg was found, and
He made wooden boards from the trees and carved patterns and letters on them, trying to teach the little dragon how to read.
The growth of a dragon also means an increase in appetite. Although a man is very rich, if he always transports large quantities of fresh meat to the forest, he will definitely be suspected. If the dragon is allowed to hunt, other accidents will inevitably happen.
So in the second year after the dragon hatched, he controlled his family to buy the land here, and planned to build an orchard here. A huge camp was built, and a large number of workers settled in, and finally
This gave men enough excuses to transport large quantities of ingredients to the forest.
Time flies by like this. In 1499, exactly twenty years after the dragon beast was hatched from the egg shell, the man with white hair finally came to the end of his life.
This time, the perspective is rare and does not focus on the dragon beast as the protagonist, but on the man:
"Bury me in the woods, next to my vacation cabin."
After leaving such last words, he suddenly passed away at his home in Ximu Town. Before his death, he did not tell anyone about the existence of the little dragon. At this time, the dragon beast had become a five-meter-tall giant beast in the forest.
And the man had already said that after his death, he would let it move deeper into the forest to live.
Its intelligence is high enough, and it is powerful enough compared to ordinary creatures in the forest. It has learned a lot under the man's "education" over the years, and now it can live alone even if it loses its man.
But on the night after the man was buried in the vacation cabin in the forest, the black dragon beast that was supposed to have left here flew back. It dug up the grave, grabbed the man's coffin with its claws, and flew into the night sky.
The summer forest sea passed quickly below it, and it flew far and wide in the forest, and finally landed in the nest it built for itself in the forest.
The dragon's nest is located on the side of a low hill. The coffin was carefully placed in the nest. Then the dark dragon beast also lay down in the nest and hung its huge head on the coffin. Not long after, in
Amid the sobbing sound, big tears flowed down from its vertical pupils.
That was definitely not an illusion. Shade heard the sobbing coming from the banquet hall at this time. He originally thought it was Agelina's voice, but Agelina was just staring at the light and shadow seriously at this time, thinking
To see what happens next, it should be the other girls sobbing.
"It's really touching."
Luvia commented, covering up the cries of others just right.
"But what is that shiny thing in the dragon's lair?"
Because it was night and the dragon's nest was in a cave, the picture in the light and shadow was very dim. But even so, there was still something shining among the pile of debris used to build the nest.
Soon the dragon beast also noticed the shining thing, and scratched the thing with his claws, so the small bottle filled with colorful smoke rolled down to the side of the coffin. The cork popped open automatically with a pop.
Colorful dreamy smoke surged upwards, and a light blue and transparent giant laughed and appeared in the smoke.
Its upper body is wearing an unbuttoned sleeveless jacket, its arms are wrapped with three gold rings each, and its ten fingers are shining jewelry rings. But it only has its upper body, and its lower body is still connected to the body in a state of mist.
Only glass bottles.
It asked the crying dragon beast
"Time stands still!"
Shade pointed at the screen, and then everyone looked at him, only to find that Shade was covering his forehead with his hand in distress:
"Luvia, I encountered this thing in Green Lake, and I also mentioned it to you.
In fact, I met it three times. The first time was in the Lost Forest of the Past, in the Seven Days Story; the second time was at Green Lake, with Megan, Audrey, and their nephew, the one-eyed mirror.
Glass Edwards of the Association met with Wood Edwards; the third time in order to fool the demons in the Black Mist Fair, I asked my friends to fish it to help make a special demon coin."
"Friend" of course refers to Dr. Schneider, who caught him when he was in Green Lake, kept him with him for a while, and only let him go near the end of the Green Lake incident.
Luvia also remembered this:
"Sage-level relic [Greed's Reward]! The 'Wish Demon-Zatanna' is sealed in it. So, this is the demon you mentioned that turned into a relic?"
Most of the ladies present did not know these experiences of Shade. After all, they were related to demons and doctors, and Shade did not talk nonsense. However, the doctor also said that this relic is quite famous and has even been recorded in many fairy tales.
Even Agelina has heard about it.
"In short, the characteristic of this relic is to make three wishes, come true, and then bring bad luck to the person who made the wish. However, through certain methods, you can get rid of it by just asking a question.
Although it exists as an exact entity, it is difficult to be completely contained. It has extremely high intelligence and spell-casting abilities, and its ability to become an evil spirit and demon after turning into a relic has not disappeared. If it were not focused on finding someone to realize it,
Wish, its danger level can actually be raised to angel level. I didn’t expect to encounter it again after the Green Lake incident.”
Shade sighed:
"Actually, in terms of chronological order, things in this light and shadow happened earlier. Well, let's see what happens next in this story."
Then the blue "giant" and the black dragon beast frozen in the picture started to move again, and the demon asked the crying dragon beast:
"Congratulations, you discovered me and liberated me! In return, I will grant you three wishes!"
The blue light on its body and the glowing smoke under its body illuminated the dark lair. The young dragon beast stretched out its claws to catch the giant spirit, but the claws passed directly through its body and brought out
There was a large swath of colorful smoke.
"Young people today are so rude."
"Djinn" pretended to pat his arm, then lowered his head slightly, looking down at the monster lying next to the coffin:
"Although the person who discovered me this time is not a humanoid creature, it seems that you are smart enough to understand what I am saying. I am still somewhat interested in you. It stands to reason that even a pure-blood dragon should be able to understand what I am saying at your age.
There is no such wisdom."
It did not continue speaking, and the three fingers extended by the "giant spirit" were reflected in the vertical pupils of the dragon beast:
"I can grant you three wishes. Although I usually won't give you a reminder, looking at your imbecile look, lying to you is really unfulfilling.
Turn your wish into a transaction, you tell me what you want, and I tell you what you need to pay. Cherish this opportunity, I will not always be so kind."
It was said to be a gesture of kindness, but this deal was absolutely unfair. The black dragon beast opened its mouth and roared. Even Shade, who had a command of words, didn't know what it was roaring, but the demon in the light and shadow knew it through telepathy.
:
"You said you didn't want to resurrect him because he told you a story that people shouldn't be reborn after death?"
The demon's blue face showed a rather surprised expression, and its left hand touched its chin:
"That's true. It seems that I should slightly increase the value of your wisdom.
I can grant your wish. The first wish is that you want to record your own and his story, right? No problem, people always hope that their stories can be passed down forever. It seems that you understand the value of stories. But
As a price, I want one-third of your wisdom. Of course, this price will only be taken away by me after you have made all your wishes."
"Roar~"
"Want to record this conversation between me and you? No problem, I'm happy to do so. After all, more people know about me, look for me, and then let me fulfill their wishes. This is also true for me.
Good thing. The carrier is the wooden board over there, right?"
It stretched out its stubby right index finger wearing a golden ring and pointed at the wooden boards that were properly placed in the dragon beast's lair. These wooden boards were used by men to teach the little beast how to write when the dragon beast was just hatched.
The "teaching materials" used, it seems that it brought them with it when building the nest.
So one of the wooden boards flew in front of the blue "djinn". Even in the dim light and shadow, Shade and the girls could identify that it was the wooden board on which the "story" was being played.
The devil paused before his fingers were about to touch it, and his comedic-looking face once again showed an unexpected expression:
"Is this a tree hole? Forget it, it doesn't make any difference."
Under the power of the devil, the story was recorded on the wooden board, and then a key was extracted from the wooden board:
"Although you probably won't know what the key is after that, this key is inserted into the wooden board. You can read this story as many times as you want. What is your second wish?"
