The Whispering Verses Chapter 2897: Dragon and Demon
Chapter 2896 Dragons and Demons
The light and shadow have reached this point, and it still 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. The man who lost his eldest son also hatched the little beast and got over 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. so.
It takes a very long time for a young dragon to grow into a young dragon. Even dragon beasts cannot grow up easily. But at least in their childhood, 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 little palm-sized things grew into a human-sized creature. The man was not afraid of it. Instead, he cut down the giant tree where the dragon egg was found, made the tree into a wooden board, carved patterns and letters on it, and tried to teach the little dragon 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 you let the little dragon go hunting, 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, finally giving the man enough excuses to transport a large amount 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 move it to live deeper in the forest.
Its intelligence is high enough and 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.
On the night after the man was buried in the vacation cabin in the forest, the black dragon beast that was supposed to leave here flew back again. It dug the grave, grabbed the man's coffin with its claws, and flew into the night sky.
The summer forest sea flew by quickly below it. 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, hanging its huge head on the coffin. For a long time, amid the whimpering 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, wanting to see what would happen next. The one sobbing should be the other girls.
"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, among the pile of debris used to build the nest, there is still something shining.
Soon the dragon beast also noticed the shining thing, and scratched the thing with his claws, and then the small bottle filled with colorful smoke rolled down to the side of the coffin. With a pop, the cork popped open automatically, and colorful dreamy smoke surged upwards. A light blue and transparent giant laughed and appeared in the smoke.
It wears an unbuttoned sleeveless jacket on its upper body, its arms are wrapped with three gold rings, and its ten fingers are covered with shiny jewelry rings. But it only has its upper body, while its lower body is still connected to the glass bottle in a cloudy state.
It asked the crying dragon beast
"Time stands still!"
Xia De pointed at the screen, and then everyone looked at him, only to find that Sha De was covering his forehead with his hand in distress:
"Luvia, I met this thing in Green Lake and mentioned it to you.
In fact, I met them 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 nephews. Glass Edwards and Wood Edwards of the One-Eyed Mirror Association met together; for the third time, in order to fool the devil in the Black Mist Fair, I asked my friend to fish it to help make a special devil coin. ”
"Friend" is, of course, Dr. Schneider, who caught him at Green Lake and kept him with him for a while, only to 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 of it.
"In short, the characteristic of this relic is to make three wishes, come true, and then make the wisher himself unlucky, but through certain methods, you can get rid of it by just asking a question.
Although it exists as a definite 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 has not disappeared after being transformed into a relic. If it were not focused on finding someone to fulfill its wishes, its danger level could actually be raised to angelic level. I didn't expect to encounter it again after the Green Lake incident. ”
Xia De sighed:
"Actually, in 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 devil 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 underneath 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. It also brought out large areas 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 was not a humanoid creature, it seems that you are smart enough to understand what I said. I am still somewhat interested in you. It stands to reason that even a pure-blooded dragon would not be able to deal with someone like you. Age should not have such wisdom."
It did not continue speaking, and the three fingers extended by the "giant" 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, it’s really unfulfilling to lie to you.
Turn wishes into transactions. You tell me what you want, and I tell you what you need to pay. Cherish this opportunity, I won't always be so kind. ”
It's a generous act of kindness, but this deal is absolutely unfair. The black dragon beast opened its mouth and roared. Even Shade, who was familiar with 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 unexpected expression, and its left hand touched its chin:
"This is true. It seems that I should slightly increase the value of your wisdom.
I can fulfill your wish. The first wish is that you want to record your story and his, right? No problem, people always want their stories to 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 finished all your wishes. ”
"Roar~"
"Want to record this conversation between me and you? No problem, I'm also happy to do so. After all, more people know me, look for me, and then let me realize their wishes, which is great for me. It’s a 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 the "teaching materials" used by men to teach the little beast how to write when the dragon beast was first hatched. It seems that it brought them with it when it built its 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 playing.
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 the second wish?"
