The night at Beishimbashi, like the summer nights in other places in Kyoto, is full of sweltering heat. There are people shaking cattail fans on the grass, and many of them will hold the fan handle in the other hand. Holding an ice pack, Chen Changsheng waited for a long time before finding the right opportunity to get down from the tree to the well, and then jumped down.
It's still the familiar feeling of landing, it's still the icy chill, the scorching heat on the ground, and there is no shadow in the underground space. The thick snow and frost on the ground indicate that it will always be a cruel winter here.
Seeing the black dragon slowly floating over like mountains and rivers—even though he had seen this scene many times—Chen Changsheng still couldn't control his emotions, and felt a little terrified.
The black dragon floated into the air in front of him, looking down at him from above, the emotion in the dragon's eyes was very indifferent, only he could see clearly, there was a trace of dryness and resentment hidden in the deepest part.
After returning to the capital from Xunyang City, he visited Black Dragon once, but recently he was too busy to leave because of the heavy pressure on the Orthodox Academy.
The wound between Heilong's eyebrows should be getting better, at least there is no problem on the surface.
Chen Changsheng took out the roasted chicken and roasted lamb that he prepared as a routine, and cleaned up the garbage on the ground. Just as he was about to speak, a gust of cold wind suddenly hit his face.
That is the breath of the black dragon, which contains terrifying power and chill.
No matter how powerful the spirit is, it can be blown away by this cold dragon's breath.
According to legend, the dragon's breath of the golden dragon can directly melt gold and stones. Chen Changsheng has never encountered it before, but at this time, he is sure that the dragon's breath of the same level of the mysterious frost dragon can definitely freeze gold and stones into pieces, because he He was frozen at that moment, the chill was piercing, and it was extremely painful. After a while, he broke through the ice with difficulty, and said with lingering fear: "Don't make such jokes in the future."
He didn't know that his body had been soaked in the real dragon's blood of the black dragon, otherwise the dragon's breath just now would freeze him to death, that's not a joke.
A flash of joy and complacency flashed deep in the black dragon's giant eyes, and squeaking laughter echoed in the underground space.
Chen Changsheng was already used to the black dragon's strange laughter, so he told him what happened to the Orthodox Academy recently, which was also an explanation for why he hadn't come for a long time.
The black dragon slowly landed on the ground in front of him, covering the light from thousands of night pearls on the dome.
Chen Changsheng stood in the shadows, looked at it for a long time, and made up his mind to ask the answer today.
When he risked his life for the first time, he was about to die, but when he finally woke up, he was lying on the bed of the Orthodox Academy. Not only was he unscathed, but he gained unimaginable strength, strength and speed.
He knew that this must have something to do with the black dragon, and he asked several times afterwards, but the black dragon never answered his question directly. Hearing his question, perhaps sensing his determination today, the black dragon didn't directly humiliate him with ignorance or dragon's breath like it did a few times before, but remained silent for a long time.
"Are you sure you want to know the answer?" The black dragon used human language.
This is not the first time Chen Changsheng has heard the black dragon speak with a human voice. At the beginning, he didn't understand why the black dragon's voice sounded like an irritable little girl. It was only later that he figured out that although the black dragon was imprisoned underground by Wang Zhice A hundred years, but compared to the long life of the dragon clan, it is actually still in adolescence, it can't be called a young dragon, it should be regarded as...
A maiden dragon
Chen Changsheng said, "I want to know the answer."
The black dragon was silent for a long time again, and then described the situation at that time.
Only then did Chen Changsheng realize that he was so lucky.
After a long time, he looked at the black dragon and said, "How can I thank you?"
After the trip to Zhouyuan, he rarely used the honorific title for Heilong, but at this time, he was a little restless, full of fear and gratitude to Heilong, so he used the word "you" very respectfully.
However, the black dragon obviously didn't want to hear this word, and there was a hint of hatred in the depths of its giant eyes.
Then, the black dragon didn't know what to think of, and that trace of hatred turned into a trace of annoyance.
If Chen Changsheng could be more sensitive in some aspects, maybe he could still see a touch of shame.
All the meanings in the depths of the black dragon's eyes finally turned into evil intentions.
You got my first blood, and you actually asked me how to thank me!
The underground world instantly became extremely cold, the snow layer on the ground was blown away, and the snowflakes fell from the sky again, everywhere was a dense white.
A dragon chant directly landed in Chen Changsheng's sea of consciousness.
It was her voice, and this time she used Dragon Language.
Her voice is very soft and clear.
Her emotions are cold and intense.
Chen Changsheng was almost knocked out, and when he recalled the dragon chant he heard just now, he realized that it was what the black dragon said to him.
Dragon language is the most complex and simplest language in the world. A dragon's chant is one syllable, but it contains countless tones, which can be a meaning or a large article.
When Chen Changsheng was very young, he had been exposed to dragon language when he read the last volume of scriptures. After he came to the capital, he also learned it from the black dragon for a while, but he didn't fully understand it at this time.
He vaguely understood some fragments of the black dragon's dragon chant.
"Blood...you...I...promise...swear...broken...shame...gu...death...ku...water...fat...time..."
What does it mean? He was a little dazed, especially the loudest word in his mind, which made him doubt whether he really heard it, and whether he had really learned Dragon Language.
"What exactly do you want me to do?"
He slapped the frost off his body, walked up to the black dragon, and looked up.
Heilong looked down at him from a high position, with a hint of sadness and grievance gradually appearing in his emotionless eyes.
I don't know if it didn't want Chen Changsheng to see it, or because it was really tired, it closed its eyes, and the wind and snow in the underground space stopped accordingly.
Chen Changsheng looked at it and said, "Thank you."
What he said was very sincere, but the black dragon didn't open its eyes, just like what it said in Zhou Yuan and Xue Ling, it felt that when he said these two words, he didn't care about it.
Chen Changsheng actually saw the sadness and grievance before the dragon eyes closed.
He didn't think of himself, but thought that if viewed from humans and monster races, the black dragon would probably be a little girl as big as Luoluo.
A little girl was deceived by a strong human being and imprisoned underground for hundreds of years, of course she has the right to feel wronged, and of course she will look sad.
Chen Changsheng thought he understood why the black dragon was a little angry earlier.
Yes, the black dragon saved his life, and it can even be said to give him a better life, but it has been imprisoned underground, and he once promised it that if possible, he would find a way to rescue it, but this What have you done for half a year? Have you ever thought about this? I actually asked myself just now, how can I thank it...
He walked past the black dragon with his head down, walked into the distant night, and then gradually disappeared.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng's heart was full of guilt.
The black dragon didn't open his eyes, but he knew what he was doing, but he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
There was silence, only the sound of footsteps fading away, the black dragon's closed eyes trembled slightly, and there was ice and snow falling, as if he wanted to open his eyes, but in the end he didn't.
She thought dumbly, human beings are indeed shameless and incompetent, when encountering unsolvable problems and unbearable kindness, they would try to avoid them, or even more disgustingly turn their eyes against each other.
You are still human after all.
So, go if you want.
—I have a bad appetite today, and I don’t want to eat people.
But if next time you come, you are still only willing to say thank you, but refuse to bring me the food from the canteen of the Orthodox Academy, I will definitely swallow you in one gulp.
Yes, when Chen Changsheng was talking about the recent events of the Orthodox Academy, he didn't forget to mention that Tang Thirty-Six turned the Chenghu Building into the canteen of the Orthodox Academy.
When she heard the word blue lobster, she remembered that when she was very young, she went to the Westward Journey with her father to play. When she was bored during the underwater journey, she would pick up a few blue lobsters and chew them in her mouth as snacks. Later, after she landed in the human world, she found that some humans in the south also like to eat similar food, which seems to be called betel nut
Heilong suddenly woke up, wondering if he had been imprisoned for too long, why was he so easily distracted, one moment he was going to scold the heartless man, but the next moment he thought of snacks
Then she heard a knocking sound from far behind her, and slowly opened her eyes.
She is the mysterious frost dragon, the coldness in her eyes can make the whole world feel frightened, for some reason, there is a touch of warmth at this time.
The knocking sound came from a very far away, that's because the black dragon's body is huge, like a mountain itself.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng was in front of that incomparably huge stone wall, trying to break open the iron chain that trapped the black dragon.
It is amazing that the two iron chains are not very thick, at least compared with the black dragon's body, but the black dragon has no ability to break free.
Chen Changsheng had tried it before, and he knew that even the Wugou Sword, which was rated as unparalleled by Tianji Pavilion, could not break this iron chain.
Because the sword edge of the Wugou Sword has no way of actually touching the iron chain, the outer edge of the iron chain is covered by a layer of breath that cannot be seen or touched, but is real.
At this time, the sound of knocking on the wall was that he was knocking off the thick layer of ice where the iron chain entered the wall.
The iron chains and formations that can imprison the Xuanshuang giant dragon are certainly not something that he can break now, but as the saying goes, the road of ten thousand miles begins with one's feet, and he must take the first step first.
The first step is research.
The more he researched, the more thrilling he felt.
