overnight evolution

No one spoke, Xi silently returned the egg to my hand.I subconsciously reached out to take it, and when I raised my eyes, I clearly saw that the warmth in his eyes had faded away, leaving only a dull blackness.

My old lady stopped laughing, and turned to my father, "How do you explain this word?"

My old man frowned and said, "It's not my name, how would I know."

I hugged the little quilt, looked down at the glowing red egg inside, and thought about the appearance of a little baby curled up in the eggshell.Judging by Xi's expression, the name probably didn't come from Xiu's mouth.Think about where my youngest son came from, and you will understand that this is actually his memory of his brother.

That will probably be a long time in the future, and no one knows what will happen in the future.However, looking at the still egg, I couldn't help but wonder what this child will look like when he grows up.What kind of elder brother is it that makes Xi Zai dare not even hug him at first, but when his name is mentioned, he shows a sad face.

He tightened his arms, hugged the egg firmly, and then raised his head: "I'll ask him again when I have time, it's not in a hurry anyway."

Xiu didn't come to accompany us, but went to deal with internal problems.At that time, the guy from the Zerg said that there were their supporters in Atlantis, and Xiu rushed to Wangcheng for this matter.As the last guardian, no matter when and where, it is his duty to protect the entire continent.

Perhaps because of this, races with Zerg genes tend to be Guardians.

Griffins guard the entire Atlantis and treat all individuals equally. To a large extent, they give these mixed races fair treatment that they cannot get elsewhere.The peace they maintain is not only about fighting against foreign countries, Anne is also a part of it.

When the family was still at its peak, the guardian's footprints spread all over the continent.They like to travel and leave their mark wherever they go. The discrimination and persecution in the corners cannot escape the eyes of the griffins. There are countless perpetrators who are torn apart by their sharp claws every day.Until this family fell in the great war, the mixed races were protected by them. Even if there was only one Xiu left in the end, he was protecting these races to the greatest extent.

The weak will offer their support and devotion, and beg for the protection of the strong.Atlantis might really be too dark for them, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people asking Xiu to take them away that day.

Ants are a little different.They are creatures created by Atlantis, their status is higher than that of mixed races, they are separated from the major forces, and they only obey the Queen's orders.According to the degree to which she is completely devoted to Xiu, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire ant clan is Xiu's private army, and they fight with whomever they like.

His spokesperson in the ant tribe is Queen Eve, without her support, his strength would have been weakened by more than half.

So even if I watched him standing and talking with his old lover, I had to endure it and not make trouble.

God knows how much I want to pull him back now, and ask him what he plans to name his son.

My old man said coldly at the side: "If the father of the child can't give it a good name, I, the grandfather, will be more than happy to do it for me."

... Well, Dad, you are full of disobedience when you say such things with a face that is not in your forties.

After a pause, he still seemed unwilling to stop criticizing, and asked me again, "What about others now?"

I thought about it and replied, "I'm talking to someone."

He snorted coldly: "With whom?"

...Old lover, but can I tell you this kind of thing?

In all fairness, Wangcheng is quite interesting.

The streets are like a labyrinth with twists and turns. Every ant tribe has to lower its head and keep using its tentacles to collect familiar smells when walking, which is suitable for adventure.The sun is shining brightly in Wangcheng, and the plants grow more lush than other places.This is the only place in the underground world where there is an artificial light source, and the alternation of day and night is synchronized with the ground.My old lady sat with me in the garden for a while and felt bored, and her grandson was still in the egg, and she got tired of staring at an eggshell, so she asked my old man to go out with her.

Of course I am in favor.

Before she left, she realized her conscience, turned her head and smiled at me, and asked, "Son, do you want to go together?"

I sat on the stone bench with the egg in my arms, and I didn't even have the strength to shake my head: "I don't have the strength, you guys have fun."

After watching them leave, when I looked back, I found that Xi was gone.After thinking about it, he stood up holding the egg and walked to the place with many trees.Going around the stone fountain, walked to the edge of the forest, looked up, and saw Xi sitting on the tree with his sword in his arms, with thick branches and leaves covering most of his body.

I found that Xi really likes to stay in the tree, and it was the same last time, he ran out in the middle of class, and then ran to the tree.

——Qi, Xiaoqi, by the way, my son, I didn’t name you this name to make you fall in love with the tree, hey!

Holding the crystal hanging on the chest in the palm of his hand, and thinking about it, the person disappeared from the spot and stood on the tree.Xi's drooping eyelashes trembled, but he didn't lift them up, leaning against the tree trunk with a somewhat withdrawn look.I didn't have the strength in my legs, so I couldn't stand for long, so I carefully sat down with my egg in my arms, and after waiting for a while, I asked, "Unhappy?"

Xi raised his head, smiled a little, and shook his head.

He is always as docile as a deer in front of me, with clear eyes.

I couldn't help but reach out and touch his head, the soft black hair flowed under my palm, as obedient as water.Well, it feels a bit like a manicured hair, not like me.He looked at me quietly, I was moved by this look, and couldn't help but ask again, "What's not happy, it makes me happy to say it - bah, it's easy to talk to Gu Xiaocheng - er, it will feel better to say it Some."

Xi laughed, and said in a low voice: "It turns out that Ah Feng has been like this since then..."

I understood that he was comparing the future me with the present me, but I had to pretend not to understand, so I had to ask, "What?"

Xi got rid of the gloomy atmosphere, smiled and reached out to stroke my hair, and said softly: "It's nothing, it's nothing now."

I really want to say, son, how can you touch your father's head and treat him like a child, but seeing his dark eyes, you still endured it and changed the subject: "Why do you hide in the tree every time you can't find you? What if It’s not that the new functions of the crystal have just been developed, and there is no way to come up to you.”

"Well, because staying in the tree makes me feel safe and I can think about things calmly." Xi said, "When I was a child, I wandered outside for a long time, and when I didn't have a place to live at night, I would climb to the tree. If you can’t hold on, just lean on it and sleep for a while. If you are lucky, there will be edible fruits on the tree, so you don’t have to look for something to eat.”

Xi said it lightly, but I knew that the situation at that time was definitely not as easy as he said.

Such a young child left his parents and was alone in the wild. Not only did he have to beware of wild animals, but he also had to find something to eat for himself. If he couldn’t find it, he would starve.The heavy darkness surrounded the surroundings, as if it would never wait for the arrival of dawn.Even when I was in junior high school, I would sleep with the light on because I was afraid of the dark.So it is completely impossible to imagine how much suffering the young Xi endured to survive, to be able to appear here, in front of him.

I really want to hug him, hug that young Qi, so that he doesn't have to be afraid and don't have to hide in the trees anymore.But the one smiling in front of me was no longer that poor child. The handsome young man in front of me was almost as tall as me, and could split the tree under us with a single sword strike.He is stronger than me now, and he will not be as helpless as I am in the face of the attack of the elders. He can guard the entrance opened by the Zerg alone, beheading the invaders one after another under the sword.

Now I see the grown-up Qi, but in the future I miss the process of his growing up.

I had to play dumb, because the boy in front of me was afraid that I would be sad and didn't want me to know anything.

Even if he wanted to hug him tightly again, he could only bury the pain in his heart deeply, and said with a smile: "If Xi's parents see Xi again, they will definitely be proud of their children."

Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked me softly, "Will you?"

I laughed and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a loud voice, "That goes without saying."

Because Dad, I am proud of you now, and I wish I could tell you personally, Xi, you are the most outstanding work in my life, Dad.For you, even if you have to suffer again, Dad is willing.
