When Sophie and the others returned to Dragon Valley, it was already evening, but this did not stop Sophie from eagerly wanting to resurrect Weixian.
Almost as soon as he landed, Sophie was eager to start taking action.
It was Hull who looked at the weather and said, "The energy of the resurrection artifact is running out. Don't be careless. If you don't succeed once, you won't have another chance. You'd better be prepared and come back tomorrow after a night's rest."
Hearing what Hull said, Sophie was instantly very nervous. Damn, and the success rate and failure rate? Don't be so stupid!
But he didn't dare to say more. Now he is more and more afraid to offend Hull. He should not operate this thing rashly. In case of failure, he will have nowhere to cry.
Since Hull said that he would take a rest for the night before doing it, Sophie had no problem.
Little Neil growled and whispered, "Hungry." Hull was about to cook, Sophie thought of asking for help now, especially since Hull has been trapped in the abyss for so long, his physical strength has been exhausted. , it would be too inhumane to let him cook.
And Su Miao... It's not that he said that the master is always good, or that he is really bad at cooking. When in Bua Canyon, Sophie desperately slaughtered beasts in order to exercise his strength in the early stage, resulting in exhaustion of physical strength and unable to move at all. The food problem is gone.
At that time, although Su Miao was still possessed by the facial paralysis attribute, he knew in his heart that this was a good time to express himself, so he appeased Sophie and let him have a good rest while he cooks.
Su Miao asked him what he wanted to eat. At that time, the two of them happened to clean up a giant whale. Sophie said, eat some fish, and the little cub nodded wildly, saying that he could eat it instead of raw this time. It's a pleasure to be cooked.
So, Su Miao went to work.
At that time, Sophie was moved in his heart, look at how good our general attacking adults are, he can kill the enemy invisibly, and he can cook well. Sophie suddenly felt ashamed.
But after a while, he knew that this was a good cook, and it was a good fire at all! Sophie was squinting for a while, and was woken up by the fire. Before he could react, Su Miao picked him up and quickly fled the scene.
After leaving, Sophie looked at the forest fire from a distance, and then looked at the disgraced little cub and the demeanor who was still the general attacking master with some dodging eyes, and suddenly fell silent.
Since then, the heavy responsibility of cooking... Sophie can only carry it alone.
Cough cough... No one is perfect... One has a flaw to be friendly... Please make up your own mind how Sophie is hiding in the corner and snickering secretly.
So at this moment, Sophie took the initiative to stop Hull, and rushed to the kitchen with Fatty Huo.
In a short time, he made a simple three dishes and one soup, because considering Hull's physical condition, he only cooked some light dishes, and he was very dissatisfied with this little cub. Sophie had to roast a wild boar for him...
While Sophie was busy, Su Miao took a book and looked at it in the living room. This is also a habit developed in Bua Canyon. Once Sophie went to cook food, Su Miao asked if he could look in his space bag. Books, Sophie will naturally not refuse.
There are a lot of books in his space bag, all of which were left by Wei Xian. Sophie thought it was some kind of secret book spell before, so he turned over and over with interest. But it is a pity that there are indeed a large number of secret manuals and spells, but it is a pity that Sophie looked at it in vain, and none of them could be practiced by him. If these books were put up for auction in Baynes City, they would be able to exchange for a lot of gold coins, but this was left to him by Wei Xian, and he did not want to sell them, not to mention that he was not poor enough.
Therefore, Su Miao saw that he was very happy. If Su Miao could practice, their combat power would also be greatly improved, which is a good thing.
So, when Sophie brought out the food (the roast wild boar had been swallowed by the young cub), what she saw was Su Miao turning over a thin book on the chair by the window, her slender fingers falling On the yellowed paper, the laid-back look makes the scene extra soft because of the yellowing sun in the evening.
Sophie felt warm in his heart. He turned his eyes and saw Hale in the shadow at the other end of the room, resting with his eyes closed. He was leaning against a large wooden chair, his whole body seemed a little thin, and that Her beautiful face was also slightly haggard from relaxation. It wasn't obvious before, but now Sophie feels that he is very tired and sleepy.
Little Neil was lying on his lap, lying on his back, but he was already asleep and snoring lightly.
As soon as Sophie appeared, Su Miao raised her head and smiled at him, Sophie winked at him, and then brought the meal to the table.
Hull didn't fall asleep. He opened his eyes with a little movement, but the goal was the intimate interaction between Su Miao and Sophie. He was stunned and closed his eyes again. The exhaustion seemed to deepen again. a bit.
In the two years in Bua Canyon, let’s not say that Sophie’s cooking skills are much more advanced. They are all materials, and they are specialties of Yalansi. The yellow, yellow, green and green ones just look good.
After tasting it, Hull showed a rare smile and said to Sophie, "It tastes good."
Although I always felt that Hull was a little alienated and not easy to approach, Sophie now thinks that he is not bad, whoever is praised will feel good, not to mention that tomorrow he will be able to resurrect Wei Xian, fulfilling his long-standing wish . So Sophie's current state is that almost everyone is happy.
After dinner, Hull took the initiative to say, "I'll take Neil to sleep at the former residence and come over early tomorrow morning."
Sophie responded, and Hull left.
After leaving the house, Hull flew down with Nair in his arms, and returned to a very tall wooden house in a short time. This house is carved from a whole big tree. It looks very atmospheric from a distance, but only when I get closer, I find that the carving is very detailed, especially some of the reliefs are really lifelike.
Hull watched quietly for a while before entering the room, went up to the second floor, put down the sleeping little Nairn first, and then entered the second room on the right.
Before opening the door, his body suddenly stopped, and a low and pleasant voice came from inside: "Hell, you are back."
The voice and the breath were all too familiar, Hale squinted his eyes, and was silent for a while before opening the door.
There was a man sitting on the sofa in the center of the room. The hood of the black clothes was open, and the long golden hair that was exposed went straight down to the waist. Taking advantage of the whiter and lustrous skin, it was a very handsome face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. , with golden eyes smiling.
Behind him, a blue-haired elf stood quietly, with a very beautiful appearance but no emotion at all, and his blue eyes were always empty.
Hale glanced at him and said, "Salvag Bran."
The blond man smiled: "Why are you so unfamiliar? Call me Sal."
Hale frowned, and his originally relaxed mood became tense again. He didn't answer or refuse, but just sat silently on the sofa on the other side, leaning back and closing his eyes.
Thrall was not angry at his obvious expulsion, he added: "I told you to stay in the treasury long ago, but you refused to listen and insisted on doing it your own way. What was the situation outside at that time? I know. The disappearance of Luo Nai and his bodyguards has made the entire dragon clan doomed. If you go out alone, wouldn't it be in their arms, but trapped in the endless abyss, that is already a fortune in misfortune."
Hale remained silent.
Thrall continued, "I know you're worried about him, but you see him alive...you know, he can't die..."
Speaking of this, Hale looked at Thrall abruptly, his emerald green eyes burning with anger: "You don't see anything, just shut up!"
Thrall squinted his eyes, and anger surged up, but he suppressed it and tried to keep calm and said: "Hell, we have all experienced it, we are the only ones left in the huge dragon race, I don't want to argue with you, and I don't want to anymore. lose any of my compatriots."
Speaking of this, Hull's expression darkened, and the inexorable exhaustion flooded back into his heart. He closed his eyes and said softly, "Saar, I want to take a break."
Thrall also stopped. He looked at Hale silently, then lowered his voice and said, "You have to wake him up!"
Hel suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Thrall.
Thrall did not flinch: "Hell, we need him!"
"No, he's done enough," Hull said after a pause. "He's doing fine now, much better than I thought, so that's enough."
Thrall sneered: "Okay? Where is the good? He was born in the Demon Realm and was bullied and oppressed, that is, he would have died thousands of times if he was someone else. He escaped from the Demon Realm and fell into the human race, but he suffered endlessly. The betrayal and the constant abandonment... is this also a good one?"
Hull was stunned, these were things he didn't know.
Thrall added: "Do you think that elf is serious about him? Stop joking, you still naively believe in those invaders, who are greedy and indulge their interests and have deep-rooted hostility towards us. Under such circumstances, you Do you think the elf really likes him? It's just a use! What awaits him is a heavier betrayal."
After speaking, Thrall softened his voice again: "Hell, he belongs to you, you have been with him for so long, as long as he wakes up, why would he care about the elf? Isn't your thousand-year relationship better than someone you know each other? An intruder in just a few years?"
These words, like sharp knives pierced straight into Hull's heart, he rushed to the chest with a burst of pain, and the long memories and longings were almost unstoppable the moment he saw him. But…
Hale closed his eyes, and the fragments of his getting along with the elf echoed in his mind. Hull had never seen such an expression in such eyes. He always thought that he was emotionless, so even if his hints were ignored many times, Hull thought optimistically that he was already special to him, so don't be greedy for too much.
But... now he saw a different Luo Nai, completely different.
Only when I saw it did I realize how self-deceiving I used to be...
An indescribable emotion surged into his heart, and Hull only felt exhausted. He blocked his eyes and said in a very small voice, "Saar, he fell in love with that elf."
When he said this, he tried his best to hold back, but his eyes couldn't help turning red. It was like a sharp long sword piercing his heart, piercing those self-comforts, and the exposed reality made him unable to face it. Thousands of years of silent protection, the feelings that have been deeply rooted in the bone marrow finally realized clearly at this moment that everything is self-indulgent.
A trace of impatience flashed in Thrall's eyes, but his tone was not at all obvious, and he said softly, "Hell, you have to be sober, what if he fell in love with that elf, that elf is not worthy of his feelings at all. You Now let it go, you think you've accomplished him, but you're actually hurting him!"
Salton paused for a moment, and said with a more serious tone: "You know better than anyone what the temperament of those invaders are, they are just coveting his power, his wealth or... his appearance. Wait until there is a greater benefit. In front of them, they will abandon him and betray him without hesitation. Think about it, after being betrayed after really giving your feelings, how will he be hurt? Isn't it obvious? "
Thrall said a lot, and Hull could hear it clearly. He recalled Sophie's appearance in his mind, thought about it carefully, but suddenly grasped a key point.
He looked at Thrall, squinted his eyes and said, "Why do you know that he was born in the Demon Domain and lived in the world, and what happened to him?"
Thrall was a little stunned. He didn't expect Hull to think so sharply in such a state.
Hale stared at him and asked: "Since you know where he is, why did you let him encounter these things? Even if you can't awaken him, you can completely stop these things from happening, but you are watching from the sidelines! Thrall, What do you mean?"
Being directly exposed like this, Thrall's body that was leaning forward leaned back, becoming lazy and casual: "You should know why I am."
Hale's face became more and more ugly.
Thrall snorted coldly, with deep hatred in his golden pupils: "I will not give him extra feelings, what these invaders have done can never be forgiven, Luonai is reborn, I know, but I can't wake up. He, so I want him to keep this hatred, he should hate them, he must hate them!"
"So you just watched from the sidelines? Watching him being ignored, bullied and betrayed? Thrall, have you forgotten how you survived?"
"I remember it all! But I couldn't find you. I thought you were dead. No one could wake him up after you died. I couldn't let him forget his hatred. I believe that if he wakes up, he will understand me. "
Hull stared at him, and after a while he turned his eyes away and said, "I won't wake him up. He doesn't need to carry this anymore, it's enough."
Thrall stood up suddenly: "Hell, don't let me force you!"
Hale recalled the bits and pieces along the way, as well as Lonai who casually flipped through a book in the evening sun, the simple dinner, the emotion that was definitely revealed unintentionally, and the time he looked at the elf. look...
He knew him too well to see too clearly. This clarity made his heart hurt so much, and at the same time, he felt it more clearly than anyone else.
Hull lowered his eyes, his voice low but firm: "He's doing well, that's enough."
As soon as he finished speaking, Thrall had already bullied his body forward. He clasped Hull's neck with one hand, and there was a stern flash in his eyes: "You coward!"
Hel looked at him calmly, without resisting or responding, he was not Thrall's opponent in a complete victory state, let alone now, and... He could not do anything to Thrall... This is his clan...
Thrall stared at Hull and said sternly, "You think you can't wake him up if you don't agree to me?"
Hull was stunned, a little unbelievable.
"Hell, you know I won't kill you, but since you don't agree, you will inevitably suffer a little."
Thrall glanced at the left rear and whispered, "Xia!"
"Yes, Master." Xia approached immediately, holding Hull in his arms.
Before the surprise in Hull's eyes receded, he already felt an irresistible force intruding into his body.
After a while, Hull disappeared without a trace.
The sternness in Thrall's eyes receded, he sighed, closed his eyes, and opened them again, he already had long jade hair and green eyes, and turned into the appearance of Hull.
