Hello!this is my dragon

Those were two adult beasts. Although they weren't the most aggressive, Rui still had the cubs with him, so he must have some scruples and couldn't let go.

Although Xitu was shocked, he also unleashed his fighting spirit and killing intent, because in this situation he couldn't show cowardice, and whoever showed a little fear or retreat would be suppressed, and he couldn't hold back Yafu any further.

The first thought that flashed in Rui's mind was: to lure these two beasts away, they don't know how to climb trees, and we must seize the opportunity to let Xitu climb up the big tree to hide, and then I can let go Take care of these two fierce beasts.

"Xitu! Throw away the prey first." Rui said calmly, his eyes fixed on the opponent in front of him without blinking.

The little tiger cub was still calm and smart, so he suddenly threw the jumping sheep in his hand far away into the bushes nearby, and then said hastily: "Yafu, let's go, they should only be here for food." here."

——This little brat is indeed a natural hunter. I didn’t notice just now to remind him to throw it far away or in the opposite direction.

Without his reminding, just when the jumping sheep was thrown out and the beast instinctively chased after the food, Rui kicked hard, increased his speed to the fastest speed, and ran towards the tribe.

The little tiger cub bowed and hugged the beast father tightly. He quickly looked back and said happily, "Ya father, they didn't catch up, it's great——"

Unexpectedly, when Xitu's words of relaxation and rejoicing were not finished, Rui, the leopard orc, made another hasty pause. The moment the little tiger cub turned around and turned back, he was caught off guard and this time he was really thrown to the ground. , and rolled several times in a row before stabilizing his figure.

"Xitu! Climb to the tree immediately!" Rui roared and rushed forward without fear.

After the little tiger cub hugged his head and rolled a few times, he immediately stood up and subconsciously glanced at his Yafu: What should I do?Are there two more in front?But there is no jumping sheep anymore...

Xitu watched Yafu and the two beasts wrestling with each other nervously: roars, sharp teeth, claws, bones, and bodies collided non-stop.In the blink of an eye, one of the beasts that Rui knocked away fell down not far from Xitu. After looking at the obviously weaker little orc in front of him with fierce and angry triangular eyes, it rushed towards him decisively. .

——By the way, Yafu asked me to climb a tree just now!

Xitu nimbly jumped to the side to avoid it, he was not so scared at this moment, but faintly excited: because he felt in his bones that he was a hunter, and the two in front were both prey and food for orcs , just a little more difficult to deal with.

By turning around and dodging just now, Xitu took a look at the surrounding environment: ah, there is a big tree next to it.

When Rui heard the movement behind, he immediately slammed the beast in front of him away, and quickly turned around to rescue Xitu at great risk, exposing his back to the beast behind.

At this time, Xitu had already instinctively turned into a beast under the threat. The half-grown tiger bravely used his claws and teeth, and tail to wrestle with the beast: he was quite courageous, otherwise he would not Will sneak into the dense forest alone and go down to the sea from the edge of the Sicilian mainland to find the legendary Pearl Island.

Rui sternly roared: "Go to the tree!" But he was grabbed by the beast that counterattacked just now. Fortunately, he ducked down and dodged the opponent's attack in an instant. Only then did he save his spine, but suffered some flesh injuries.

Seeing this, the little tiger cub angrily seized the opportunity to pounce and bite from the side, tearing open a big hole in the belly of the beast that had just withdrawn its claws from Yafu's back, blood gushed out, and the other party mourned. With a cry, he immediately had the intention to retreat.

"I can help, Yafu!" Xitu was still blindly following Yafu's orders before, but just now he clearly realized that Yafu alone is a little dangerous when facing two beasts, and he just needs to be careful , Even if it only bears some attacks slightly, the battle situation is very different.

Rui still disagreed, and he still felt that the cub should climb up a tree, so that he could feel at ease.Since he was the one who brought Xitu into the dense forest, he naturally had to do his best to ensure the safety of Xitu. If something unexpected happened, this warrior of the leopard clan really couldn't face Qing Zhe, the mother and father of the little tiger cub.

——Although all the orcs have been honed into warriors from the dangers like today, Xitu is different. This is the first time for him to enter the depths of the dense forest to exercise, and he should avoid it when he encounters danger appropriate.

"Yafu, I'm not afraid! Look, that one has already escaped." Xitu said excitedly. He stood majestically next to Rui. Although he was still the size of a cub, he already had the aura.

"Stand by and observe my method of attacking the beast. Be careful." Rui decided to make a quick decision. The smell of blood here is too strong, and sooner or later it will attract many carnivorous beasts.

Xitu nodded, took a few steps back, and guarded Yafu's back.

roar~

Aww~~

Both parties knew that it was the last moment. The leopard and the beast let out a roar at the same time, and rushed towards each other aggressively.

After all, Rui is a warrior with many battles. At this time, there is only one opponent left, and he no longer retains his strength. The beast's front paw hit the opponent's nose!

Hu~hu~

The nose is the weak point of most animals, and some are even fatal.

After the nose of the beast was slapped with all its strength by the leopard, it immediately became dizzy, backed away constantly, and at the same time lowered its head and raised its paws to try to reach its nose.

"Xitu, go! Bite his neck off!" Rui had already slammed the opponent down to the ground again, and then called the little tiger cub to experience the feeling of biting off the neck of a large beast, so that he can do it again in the future. When you encounter a beast, you will not feel fear and strangeness.

The little tiger cub jumped on it immediately, bit the beast's throat without hesitation, and at the same time tried hard to remember the way to attack this beast.

This is the significance of the little orc following the adult orc into the jungle trial.It is impossible for cubs to naturally know how to track, identify, and hunt wild animals. They need guidance, observation, and opportunities to try; if they are left to grope alone, the proportion of young cubs in the tribe will be terribly high up.

"Okay, that's fine. Do you remember Xitu? That's what beasts are like." Rui nodded appreciatively, gratified that the little tiger cub was not afraid of the beast's roar and struggle and the stimulation of its blood.

Xitu puffed out his chest contentedly and said, "I remember, Yafu."

"Drink the animal blood quickly, we should return to the tribe." Rui continued to guard the surroundings, urging the little tiger cub to drink the gurgling animal blood, hoping that he would grow taller and stronger in the future.

"Yafu~"

"Drink!"

The little tiger cub licked the delicious animal blood from the corner of his mouth, and then he dared to lower his head and lean over to drink it.

"Xitu, when I met those two beasts for the first time, the reason why I asked you to throw away the prey was because I didn't want to confront the beasts with you, and it was a last resort to meet them the second time; If you bring little orcs into the dense forest for trials after you become an adult, you must know that safety is the most important thing, don't be aggressive, remember?" In order to make the little tiger cub a qualified tiger warrior, Rui, It really took all aspects into account.

Xitu just finished drinking the beast blood, he nodded in shame: "I remembered Yafu. I'm sorry, I was a little too excited just now."

"Go, go back and talk slowly." Rui greeted, then picked up the heavy beast, and led the little tiger cub to the direction of the tribe quickly.

When they finally reached the small river at the edge of the dense forest, many adult orcs and cubs had gathered there, and today was originally a day stipulated by the tribe.

Basically, the adult warriors have the same idea as Rui: I am really worried about any accidents with the cubs, and I definitely can’t take risks. Let the cubs get familiar with the environment deep in the jungle first.

Under such deliberate control, everyone's harvest was very average. Most of the prey were tame herbivorous beasts, and some even picked back some fruits that were only found in the depths of the dense forest.Therefore, the beast brought back by Rui and Xitu really surprised everyone by the small river grassland.

"Rui, you are so bold, you dare to take your cubs to hunt and kill wild beasts!" The outspoken orc A first spoke in disapproval, and his words also represented the aspirations of everyone present.

Beast God, this is really too risky, if something happens to the cub, it depends on what you will do!

Xitu quickly explained: "No, Jia Anke, Yafu took me to hunt the jumping sheep, but when I came back, I ran into a beast, and Yafu asked me to throw the jumping sheep to them to eat , who would have known that two more came from behind, and they also took the initiative to attack us..."

That's enough to say here, in fact, most of the orcs are very simple, and basically have no ill will towards the people in the tribe.The topic immediately changed, and everyone began to praise the leopard: "Hahaha~ I'm sorry, Rui, I misunderstood you. You really deserve to be a warrior of the leopard tribe. You can even hunt and kill wild beasts with your cubs!" Orc A was the first to speak. He belonged to the Black Bear Clan and had a good relationship with Rui. They even went into the dense forest together occasionally.

Rui put the beast by the river, shook his head nonchalantly, he slowly turned into a human form, and stood behind him, took out the medicine powder and evenly sprinkled it on the wound on his Yafu's back.

"I'm hurt, um, little tiger, I'll give you Yafu some more sprinkles, the wound is a bit deep." Jia leaned over to look at Rui's wound, and gave Xitu a warning.

Rui patted Jia on the back, "Help me teach Xitu how to deal with beasts, I'll rest for a while." After transforming into a human form, the injury on his back was not suitable for bending over, so he asked for his enthusiasm Simple and honest big black bear.

"Okay, you rest. Come with me, little tiger, and Anke will teach you how to deal with the beast." After speaking, he bent down and easily picked up the beast on the ground with one hand, and led Xitu to the river. .

"Here, the fur of the beast is very warm. Both the female and the cubs need it during the cold season. You should peel it off as completely as possible, and then make a blanket of animal skin... You can't use this part, the meat has a smell... the heart of the beast It’s in this position, kid, you must remember it..." A slowed down as much as possible, and told Xitu the method and points to pay attention to little by little.

"I remember Jia Anke." Xitu watched with wide eyes, surrounded by a circle of curious little orcs.

"Okay, that's about it. By the way, the meat of the beast is too hard. You can pick some sour grass and put some when roasting meat or making broth, so that the female can bite." A finally mentioned it by the way. One sentence.

——Oh, my mother and father must not be able to bite such a hard meat!

"Okay Jiaangke, I'm going to pick the sour grass now." Xitu got up excitedly and walked towards the edge of the dense forest. Come right back, we should go back."

"Understood, Yafu."

The little tiger cub knew where the sour grass grows, it is one of the seasoning herbs commonly used by the tribe, so he went straight in that direction, but when he was picking the sour grass nimbly, a low-lying grass not far away Suddenly there was a faint sound from the bushes: miu~~~ Then an unusually small white ball of hair jumped forward lightly.

Xitu's eyes lit up in surprise: Is it a Miwu beast?He immediately chased after it.

The little tiger cub has long seen that many females in the tribe have raised one, and it seems that the females like it very much; although the mother and father have never shown anything, Xitu thinks that he must also like this kind of white dumpling. of.

Miwu beasts are small in size and flexible in movement. It is difficult to catch them alive before they are fully raised. The little tiger cub wholeheartedly wants to catch one and give it to his mother and father, and slowly moves farther and farther away from the orcs by the small river. up.

Morning on the Sicilian Sea.

Ji Mo opened his eyes from the wooden bed, then closed them again, unconsciously rolled over a few times, flicked his tail, trying to drive away the drowsiness.

In order to be able to roll comfortably, he and Ao Bai purposely made the size of the bed very large. Although it was just an ordinary hardwood bed, it was already a kingsize among kingsizes.

At this time, their small home is very different from the beginning: there is a boxy bedside table next to the wide wooden bed, with a unique shell on it, and the largest and brightest star on the top. The pearls are used as bedside lamps, and they are covered when they are not in use; a high and low simple cabinet stands on the stone wall next to it, on which are Ji Mo’s collections, mainly corals, shells, and various All kinds of shark teeth; finally, there is a set of tables and chairs in the middle of the room, where the couple usually sit when they discuss things at home.

After struggling and rolling for a long time, Ji Mo finally swam out of bed slowly, opened the wooden door and swam out, turned around and closed the door carefully before looking for Ao Bai.

Time-traveling fish feels that it should be tantamount to early autumn on the earth, and the sea water is much cooler in the morning; but everything in this world can no longer be used as a reference for the previous earth.Ao Bai also mentioned to him last night that when the real cold season comes, they will definitely not be able to live in the shallow sea anymore. They chose to settle near the island because they are newcomers and do not know the situation of the beasts in the depths of the Sicilian ocean. Now I finally have the confidence to settle down in the deep sea.

"Oh~ I really can't bear it, the place has just been furnished." Ji Mo said reluctantly, all the furniture and daily necessities in their room were made by the two of them bit by bit, which condensed a lot of warmth and harmony. sense of accomplishment.

Ao Bai comforted his partner: "It doesn't matter, Ji Mo, after the next warm season comes, we can still move back and live as if we have two families."

Ji Mo's head turned slowly, he first swam to the coral reef to look for it, but Ao Bai was not there; then he swam to the lagoon to look, oh, Ao Bai went up to pick coconuts.

"Morning, Ao Bai, you always get up earlier than me." The mermaid lay on the reef at the edge of the lagoon, and greeted her partner on the shore lazily. Since there was no work alarm in the morning, Ji Mo's sleep quality is high It's not 01:30.However, as long as people do not have strong work pressure and try to go to bed early, they can usually wake up early naturally.

At this time, the smoky blue fog on the island has just dissipated, and the dewdrops on the bushes are still condensed on the leaf tips.

"Morning, Ji Mo." Ao Bai said good morning in the same way, and he picked a lot of coconuts in one go and stored them under the tree, so that his partner could just go ashore to get them when he wanted to drink.

"Ao Bai, come, let me tie your hair up for you." Ji Mo transformed into a human form, walked up to Bailong, motioned him to bend down, and tied his partner's long silver hair into a bunch with rags. My own is already taken care of.

Ao Bai bowed obediently.Regarding the hair, he was very worried and puzzled before: Why does my mermaid always want to cut his hair short?Is it because of some discomfort in the body?

Ji Mo suggested again: "Hey, I said that we should all shorten our hair. It would be so much easier if we shave an inch." Regarding this point, he was also very helpless, because Ao Bai refused to compromise no matter what: Not only can't his hair move, but he doesn't allow his partner to move.

"No, this is good, we are born like this. Ji Mo, did you have a headache again today?" Ao Bai asked worriedly.

"Oh~ I don't have a headache. If you don't cut it, don't cut it. I respect your choice." Said Yu Yu, he sighed secretly.

At first, he thought that Ao Bai also had the idea of ​​"body, skin, and skin, should be taken care of by his parents, and dare not hurt him, and filial piety is the beginning". Later, after careful communication, he realized that this has nothing to do with filial piety. Ao Bai just thought: Since we The human form is born like this, so there must be a reason for it, why artificially change it?What should I do if my hair is cut short and something bad happens to my body?

Ji Mo argued for a long time, but failed, and finally had no choice but to maintain the current state.

"Ao Bai, after breakfast, why don't we go to see the trench near the eastern mainland of Sicily first, and if we have time back, we can go to the deep sea to find a suitable reef cave, and make the house we will live in during the cold season Make arrangements in advance." Ji Mo discussed with his partner.

"Well, the cold season is coming soon, and only now can we know if there is any abnormality in the sea water there." Ao Bai nodded in agreement. The trench is currently the biggest doubt he has encountered since he inspected Fenghai, but unfortunately they don't know. reason.

A while later, when they were eating breakfast, Ji Mo suddenly asked: "Do you think Uncle Hu in the pool would know the reason? After all, he is such an old turtle. I forgot to ask him last time."

Ao Bai said without much confidence: "It's hard to say, that sea turtle is a bit confused. There are also such a kind of sea turtles in the ocean. They are born in remote sea areas far away from the sea orc settlements. We can only know a little bit from the sea turtle that gave birth to it." things; or had an accident at a very young age and was forced to leave their previous home—so there’s no way a turtle like that would know that much.”

Ji Mo thought about it for a while, then nodded in agreement, "It makes sense. So it's not that Uncle Hu forgot at all, but he doesn't know at all?"

It's not pleasant to think so, maybe Uncle Hu has lived in that pool for most of his life?Sigh~ "He always talks about evil dragons and evil dragons. Maybe he was really teased or bullied by some dragon, otherwise he would not be able to say those words. You can see that he is too scared to go back to the sea." Ji Mo analyzed further.

Ao Bai was stunned for a moment, then said awkwardly: "...it should be a mischievous little dragon, or some adult dragon with bad temperament."

"If we need to go up the mountain again next time, let's go and see him. Uncle Hu is so lonely living alone." Just be careful about that cliff, what can have such a big impact on the Dragon Clan?Even Ao Bai didn't have such a thing in his mind.

※※※

When it was almost noon, they swam to the edge of the trench last time, and they were even more shocked by the situation this time.

"It's actually... frozen?"

Ji Mo stared dumbfounded at the small piece of frozen sea ahead, shivering from the cold, he swam over in disbelief and touched the big transparent ice block.

"Ao Bai, it's really freezing!" Ji Mo swam back to his partner in a daze.

Bailong took his partner to swim around the frozen area, and found that the previous trench was completely surrounded.

"Sea God, why is this?" Ao Bai said with some annoyance, the cold season has not really come yet, the temperature here is so low, even frozen?

This phenomenon is still an old news about the sea that Bailong’s father told him when he lived in the East China Sea when he was a child: Long, long ago, the sea people angered the sea god, and the sea god threw the water in the sea in a fit of anger. It's all solidified, the temperature is very low, and many ethnic groups have died...

Xiao Bailong asked curiously: "Then what happened after that?"

The Dragon King of the East China Sea shook his head: "I don't know why what happened later has not been passed down. But my father guessed that it must be the benevolent Sea God who couldn't bear the suffering of his people, so he lifted the punishment for us, otherwise there would be no ocean today." up.

But what is going on now?Is the Sea God angry again because of something?

Ao Bai and Ji Mo spent a longer time that day and swam almost every inch of the nearby sea, but they still had nothing to gain. In the end, they could only go home with great frustration and disappointment.

※※※

Miwu Beast seems to be a slow sprinter, but it is extremely flexible. The little tiger cub chased after it for a long time. When he finally decided to give up, he straightened up and realized that he was really lost this time.

"Yafu~" the little tiger cub called out in fear.

The sky gradually became dark, and the dense forest was too big.Xitu found himself more and more unsure of his direction, until he vaguely heard the sound of water - oops~ I finally returned to this river!

Xitu ran towards the sound of water with cheerful steps, and eagerly pushed aside the bushes in front of him. He thought he must apologize to Yafu and explain why he came back so late.

At first, it was not the river, but a huge, cold lake.

The big lake is surrounded by low grass and no trees that can block the sun, so the sky suddenly becomes bright again.

The sound of water that Xitu heard just now came from the center of the lake. The figure who was paddling and swimming towards the shore was a dragon, a white dragon.

Xitu rubbed his eyes and murmured:

"Ao Bai?"
