The rise of the cousin in the world of beasts

The little sparrow in the nest was sleeping soundly.

Of course, Brook knew what kind of creature it was. For orcs, they had heard too many legends about the sparrow that had accompanied the beast god for hundreds of years.It is said that the sparrow represents the supreme force value, and the orcs who are favored by the sparrow must be brave and invincible; there are also legends that the sparrow can make all beasts bow their heads, and hunting with the sparrow will not be punished. Any beast attack.

There are too many such legends, but since the Beast God left, the Divine Sparrow has never been seen on the mainland.

Today, this living little sparrow was right in front of Brook, which made him a little unbelievable.

Brook was in a daze for a rare moment, and at this moment, Lincoln woke up moaning.

"Are you awake? How do you feel?" Brook heard the movement and immediately came to Lincoln's side, looking at him with concern and asking.

Lincoln licked his dry mouth, half-closed his eyes and looked sideways, but couldn't see anything clearly because the passage was too dark.The eggshell of the little sparrow no longer glows after it was born, and there is only darkness inside.

"Brook?" Lincoln exclaimed, and then he sat up straight excitedly and said, "I'm saved! Why are you moving so slowly? It must be morning now. Oh, oh, it must be raining too hard to find... ...Let's go, I have to go back and find the priest to see a doctor for me, I was injured again."

In the first half of this sentence, Lincoln was still very happy. As he spoke, his consciousness was completely awake. After he realized who the person in front of him was, Lincoln couldn't speak naturally.

In the dark cave passage, Lincoln listened attentively, and found that there were no other tribesmen except him and Brooke, only the two of them were here!

Lincoln vaguely remembered that when he passed out for the first time, he actually felt very lucky to have Brooke around!He must be confused, otherwise how could he have such an idea? !

Immediately, Lincoln was taken aback, and touched his cheeks and forehead with his hands, hey, he doesn't have a fever anymore?

Brook's eyesight was much better than his, and the orcs could accurately catch their prey even in a dark environment, so he could see Lincoln's movements, so he said, "Your fever has subsided, and the wounds on your body are healing. Incredible."

"That's right, I had a severe fever before I fell asleep, but it recovered by itself after I slept for a while! I'm not in such a good physique..." Lincoln muttered in a low voice, completely puzzled.

"You didn't just sleep 'for a while', it's already the second night after you disappeared. As for your injury, I think it's probably related to that little thing." Brook took a step back and pointed to the bird's nest The little sparrow.

The little thing, who had been sleeping soundly just now, woke up now, and chirped at Lincoln, and the sound was very cheerful.

Strange to say, after the little sparrow woke up, it pecked its eggshell twice, and only half of the eggshell left unexpectedly gave off a hazy fluorescent light, forming a light source.It is this small change that proves the extraordinaryness of the little sparrow.

Lincoln had checked his body, and his injuries had indeed improved a lot, and it seemed that there was no other possibility for him to do this except for the mysterious little sparrow.Lincoln went to the bird's nest and knelt down, poked the little sparrow's head with his fingers, and asked, "You cured me? Little thing, how did you do it?"

The little sparrow showed its intimacy again, rubbed its small head against Lincoln's finger, and then lifted its foot towards its own eggshell.

Lincoln looked inside the eggshell and found nothing special.As for the difference from before... "You didn't give me egg liquid, did you?"

"Jiujiu!" The little sparrow patted its wings and nodded.

"It's amazing! No wonder I have a strange taste in my mouth. Thank you, little thing, but why are you the only one?" According to Brooke, Lincoln has been here for a day and a night, but he has never seen it The figure of an adult sparrow.

Little Sparrow tilted her head in confusion, as if she didn't understand what Lincoln meant.Lincoln was very surprised. According to the performance of the little sparrow, it can clearly understand human speech.Now the little sparrow doesn't understand, it must be because he doesn't understand the meaning of his words.Could it be that after the adult sparrow gave birth to an egg, the offspring were left to fend for themselves?

Lincoln scratched his head and thought, and heard Brook say behind him: "From the perspective of this cave, it is conservatively estimated that it has been formed for more than 20 years. And there are no traces of any adult birds living in the cave - there is only one bird's nest here." , saw no dregs of food, no fallen feathers.

Apparently, from the time the cave was dug to the present, only the little ones have been here for more than 20 years.Judging by its appearance, it seems that it has just broken its shell not long ago? "

Lincoln was very surprised, and said in a daze: "I don't know how long I was in a coma for the second time. It should not exceed 24 hours at most. It was born after I woke up for the first time... In this way, it stayed in the egg. It took more than 20 years to break its shell? But its mother bird and father bird left it and left? Isn’t it afraid that the little thing will be eaten by other wild animals? The habits of the sparrow are so strange..."

He held the little sparrow in his palm, feeling extremely surprised.

Through the dim light, Brook saw Lincoln and the little sparrow looking at each other. Both pairs of eyes were clean and pure. He couldn't help but smiled slightly: "The pet of the beast god is naturally extraordinary. Look at its bird's nest and shell, which are as fine as dust. dyed, very clean, and the shell still glows."

"That's true. It's just that how will the little thing survive after it is born? It's the rainy season, and it's not easy to find food. By the way, what do you usually eat, little thing?" Lincoln raised the little sparrow in his hand to talk to him.

"Chirp Chirp." Little Sparrow responded with two short voices as usual.

Lincoln shrugged helplessly, unable to communicate.

"If you like it, you can take it home and raise it," Brooke said.

But Lincoln hesitated, after all, he was the beast god's pet!It was definitely not an ordinary bird, he was afraid that it would cause trouble.However, looking at the ignorant little sparrow, Lincoln couldn't bear to leave it alone here.

He struggled and whispered: "Little thing, I'm going home, are you willing to come with me?"

I saw the little sparrow in his palm jumping happily twice, nodding his head again and again, clearly agreeing with Lincoln's words.Now Lincoln no longer has any psychological burden, the little thing agreed by himself!If an adult sparrow finds him in the future, he shouldn't be regarded as the thief who stole the sparrow, right?

Lincoln was content to hold the little sparrow and was about to go out. Unexpectedly, the little sparrow uttered a cry, flew back to its nest, and spread its short wings to hug its eggshell and bird's nest.Lincoln could roughly understand what it meant, and asked, "You want me to take them away too?"

The little sparrow nodded.

"Okay, since you like it." Lincoln looked at Brook, pointed to the bird's nest and eggshells and said, "Hold it, I still have injuries on my hands."

Without waiting for Brook's answer, he grabbed the little sparrow and swaggered towards the exit.

Brook was very surprised. He knew the other party very well. Judging from Lincoln's behavior towards him just now, his attitude was much gentler than before.He seems to have figured something out, and it seems that he has let go of some previous prejudices, and there has been a big change.

Although I don't understand what happened to make Lincoln change, it is finally moving in a good direction.Brook picked up the bird's nest with his mouth, put it on his back, and quickly followed Lincoln.

At the entrance of the cave, Brook said: "The rain outside is still very violent, I will carry you back, and the speed will be faster."

This time Lincoln didn't twitch too much, and just rolled over and climbed onto Brook's back.He bent forward and put the little sparrow on his belly to protect it from the wind and rain.

Surprisingly, after the little sparrow flapped its wings twice, it propped up a round transparent mask.At first, the mask could only barely cover the little sparrow, and then as it flapped its wings vigorously, the mask became bigger and bigger, and finally covered Lincoln's whole body!

Both Lincoln and Brook were surprised. Just as they stepped out of the cave, the rain soaked them in an instant, but after the mask appeared, the place where Lincoln was no longer touched the slightest rain!The transparent mask completely separates the rain from Lincoln, like wearing an all-round raincoat, so that he can not be stained by the pouring rain!

"Chirp..." The little sparrow lost all strength and lay down on Lincoln's palm, drowsy.

"What's the matter?" Lincoln had a vague guess in his mind, but he didn't know much about the blood talent of beasts, so he was not sure.

But Brooke understood at a glance: "It should be its ability, but it is too small and its ability is limited. Lincoln, sit down, let's go back to the city."

Brooke greeted.The mask failed to enclose him, and the little sparrow's ability to control was insufficient.But he didn't care, he just wanted to send Lincoln home quickly.Brook's running speed is very fast, and with the protective cover, Lincoln is not afraid of the wind and rain, so he can run to the White Tiger City at his fastest speed.

On the way, Brook shouted loudly: "I found Lincoln, everyone go back!"

His voice was high-pitched and loud, and it spread across hundreds of miles in an instant, informing other orcs who were looking for Lincoln.There were many responses from every direction, and everyone was overjoyed to hear that Lincoln had been found, and all began to return to the city.

It took only half a minute for Brook to arrive outside White Tiger City. He entered through the nearest north gate, and the orcs on duty on the tower greeted him and Lincoln and asked about Lincoln's disappearance.

Lincoln thanked them for their concern. Just as he was about to say that he had no problem, he saw the tower retreat quickly. In the blink of an eye, they had passed through the city gate and entered the city.

Half of the words were held in his throat, and Lincoln almost suffered internal injuries.Before he could reprimand Brook, he found that the two had arrived at the door of Priest Cook's house, and Brook was calling the door.

Lincoln curled his lips, thinking that this speed is too fast!It's just like lightning.

Priest Cook opened the door for them and let them into the house.He was as happy as everyone else when he saw Lincoln, and then he saw the little sparrow in Lincoln's hand, his eyes widened suddenly, and his face was full of surprise.

"This... this is... the sparrow?!" Priest Cook, who had always been calm, was extremely restless, and even trembled violently all over his body!

God of Beasts, he actually saw a living sparrow right in front of his eyes!

The little sparrow, who had exhausted her abilities, lay there listlessly. After hearing Priest Cook's words, she opened her eyelids and muttered indistinctly before falling asleep again.

Priest Cook immediately became nervous, and the wrinkles on his face deepened: "What's wrong with it? Is it injured?"

"Just now it helped me open the mask to protect me from the rain, but it exhausted all its strength." Lincoln said while stroking the little sparrow's head.

Priest Cook looked at the little bird held by Lincoln, and then at the mask that hadn't disappeared, feeling even more incredible.He turned around and ran quickly into a room, took out a milky white fruit from it, and put it in Lincoln's palm, next to the little sparrow's head.

Lincoln was surprised. He knew this white fruit, called Baizhiguo, which could instantly restore orcs' strength and energy. Only priests of all races could grow it.This kind of fruit requires more divine power than the Qingfan fruit that Priest Cook once gave to the three cubs to eat. Even a powerful person like Priest Cook can only grow ten fruits a year, which is not easy.

In the White Tiger Tribe, at the Tribal Sacrifice every year during the harvest season, the patriarch would select ten orcs who had made the most contributions to the tribe in the past year, and Priest Cook would give each of them a white wisdom fruit as a reward.This can be regarded as the highest honor of the tribe, and it is highly anticipated by all the white tiger orcs.

Unexpectedly, Priest Cook unexpectedly took out one and gave it to the little sparrow.

Seeing Lincoln's puzzled expression, Priest Cook explained with a smile: "Since the decree from the beast god last year, my divine power has increased a lot compared to previous years, so I have harvested a few more Bai Zhiguo."

Lincoln suddenly realized that this was the case.

The little sparrow, who was about to fall asleep, smelled the scent of Bai Zhiguo, opened her eyes immediately, and swallowed the fruit in one precise gulp.It quickly replenished the energy and physical strength it used up, and in a blink of an eye it was alive and kicking again, tweeting at Priest Cook, as if expressing gratitude.

Priest Cook applauded happily, watching the little sparrow grinning from ear to ear.

Christmas Extravaganza

Lincoln moved his hands quickly on the stone door in front of him.

Beside him, Brook watched his movements with peace of mind, his eyes were soft and affectionate.

"Clap."

With a soft sound, the decayed stone door slowly opened to both sides.

"With such a simple puzzle, the stone room behind the door won't be very important." Lincoln patted the dust in his hands and said with a smile.

Brooke nodded and said, "It should be. But it's not necessarily true. The Beast God occasionally makes unexpected moves."

Lincoln strode in noncommittally, with an expression of interest on his face, as if he was looking for a treasure.

The two of them are currently in the beast god temple that Brook went to many years ago.The temple is buried deep in the ground and has never been born, and the beast god does not intend to let the world know the existence of the temple.

This is just a product used by the beast god to commemorate the earth. Every brick and tile in it is engraved with the brand of the earth.There are countless institutions in the temple, all of which are closely related to the earth.For example, the stone door mechanism that Lincoln cracked just now is a messed up picture. It needs to move the various plates on it to piece together a complete picture before the stone door can be opened.

Lincoln has always been very interested in the things in the temple, and now he has finally persuaded Brook to bring him to see and see, and he is always in a state of excitement.The two of them had already followed the path that Brook had walked, and visited the stone room where four books were stored before, and now they started to wander around to see if there was anything left by the Beast God.

After their efforts to decipher, they found a general rule - if the mechanism is more complicated and difficult, the things stored in it will be more valuable after the corresponding stone chamber is opened.But as Brook said, Beast gods occasionally do unexpected things.

For example, now, when they walked into the stone room, they discovered a shimmering crystal ball floating on a stone platform in the center of the hall.

Lincoln walked over with great interest, and looked at the fist-sized crystal ball again and again. "What is this for?" Lincoln asked while touching the crystal ball.

Brook grabbed his hand and told him not to move casually: "It's probably a souvenir, it's an antique, it's not good if you break it."

"Does it look good? The Beast God's vision isn't very good. For decoration, you should add a few more night pearls, shells, corals, etc. Crystal balls are not special enough at all." Lincoln questioned the Beast God's aesthetics with his mouth curled up. Then he tries to put his hands in his pockets, only to find that Brook won't let go after he grabs him.

Lincoln raised his right hand and shook it, and Brooke's hand, which was holding him tightly, dangled back and forth.Lincoln raised his eyebrows proudly and said, "I want to hold hands with me and tell you clearly, you're an old couple and you're still messing around with these stupid people."

His ecstatic look attracted Brook so much that the number one warrior of the White Tiger Tribe couldn't hold back. He wrapped his arms around his shoulders and pulled him closer, and kissed him hard on the lips.

Lincoln didn't hold back at all, as he said, the two have been husband and wife for many years, and the children are about to get married, so why should there be any embarrassment?

The two leaned against the stone platform and kissed ecstatically, not even noticing that the crystal ball that was close at hand began to emit light.At first it was only comparable to a firefly, and then the light gradually expanded and became brighter and brighter!

When Lincoln and Brook felt the glare, they suddenly spun, as if a huge force was pulling them, and they were involuntarily attracted by that force.

Not long after, the light dissipated, but there were no figures of the two people in the stone room, they disappeared completely!

……

City B of Huaguo on Earth

Lincoln and Brooke suddenly appeared in an alley next to a department store, and they were still embracing each other.The changes in the surrounding environment surprised them. They didn't understand what was going on. They were still in the stone room of the beast god's temple just a moment ago...

Brook quickly protected Lincoln behind him, and handed him a dagger, telling him to be safe.

However, in the next second, they heard loud horns and all kinds of voices, and there were many pedestrians and vehicles on the road outside the alley. It was absolutely impossible to be Calvi Continent!

The two looked around vigilantly and walked forward slowly.

Lincoln frowned, and the more he looked, the more familiar the surrounding buildings and environment became. He whispered, "Do you think...we seem to have been here before?"

Brook, who was walking in front of him, stopped suddenly, and Lincoln was unprepared, and bumped into his back.Touching his bumped nose, Lincoln Fox asked, "What's wrong?"

Brook turned around and looked at him with shock in his eyes: "This is the earth! We are in the employee passageway behind Hengyuan Mall, Hengyuan Mall at the end of Qingqiao Street!"

"What did you say?!" Lincoln exclaimed, completely in disbelief.

The two stopped talking, and ran out of the alley at the same time, and saw the very familiar road at a glance.

The wide asphalt road, all kinds of vehicles are constantly coming and going, there are rows of shops on the street, and the traffic lights in the distance are extremely dazzling.

It all feels familiar to Lincoln and Brooke, since the end of Clearbridge Street is where their high school is!

Lincoln rubbed his eyes vigorously, pinched his arm vigorously, and found that there was no pain.He stood on the side of the street in a daze, and the turbulent crowd passed by him and Brooke, and no one looked at them—it was as if the two of them were air!

"How could this be? Are we both dead again? They can't see us!" Although Lincoln had lived in two different worlds, this was the first time he encountered such a weird and mysterious thing.

Brook took his hand and found that they could touch each other, but when he touched the street lamp next to him, he couldn't touch anything.He said helplessly: "Maybe it's because of the previous crystal ball, which projected us into the earth. It's just that we are passers-by to other people and don't belong to this world, so we can't touch it."

After his explanation, Lincoln also suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the case, we are like souls, right? The Beast God is so powerful that he can do this kind of thing. Now that we are back, we don't know when we will leave, so hurry home Go check it out!

Hey, look at the clock in that store, it's been 15 years here, exactly the same time as we spent on Calvi mainland.After so many years, I wonder if my family and yours have moved away? "

There is a coffee shop next door to them, and an electronic clock is hung on the wall, writing the year, month, day and time. It is indeed 15 years after they left the earth that year.

In 15 years, how many people and things will be changed?For their parents, relatives and friends, they have been dead for 15 years, I am afraid they will not be remembered again?

The two fell silent at the same time, feeling a little heavy.

Their deaths were quite dramatic back then. Gu Zizai accidentally stepped on a moving rock and fell; Yan Xuyang was even more mysterious, because he was locked on by the light of the beast god leading Gu Zizai together, and then he followed the beastman. world.One can imagine how sad their parents would be when they heard the bad news.

The two of them are the only sons in the family, which is equivalent to extinct descendants of the two families...

Lincoln shook his head hesitantly, his eyes wandering.To be honest, he often dreamed of his parents, grandparents, and those good friends many times. He just thought of seeing them soon, but he was not sure what kind of picture he would see.

Did his parents miss him?They will be very sad, right?How painful it must have been to raise a son until he was 18 years old, but the white-haired man sent the black-haired man away.

Lincoln pouted and winked at Brook: "Why don't you... go to your house first?"

Brooke touched his head and said dotingly, "Okay, go and meet your real parents-in-law first."

"You're so courageous! You're obviously the father-in-law and mother-in-law!" Lincoln was distracted by him as always, and he finally had a normal expression, no longer bitter and bitter.

The two turned to another street, walked into the familiar compound with apprehension and nervousness.

This is a very old courtyard house. Although it is well maintained, it cannot stop the erosion of the years, and there are mottled traces everywhere.There were a few people in uniform coming in and out at the courtyard gate, a large truck was parked outside the gate, and there were two huge 'moving' written on the rear compartment.

Lincoln and Brook suddenly realized that someone was going to move out.They walked over and finally saw the owner of the house who moved, but they didn't expect it to be the father of their good buddy Liu Zhuang.His hair is half white, but he is in good spirits. From his clothes and watch, it can be seen that his home is in good condition now.

At this moment, an old man with a red armband on his arm came and greeted Liu Zhuang's father.The old man picked up the form in his hand and said while writing and drawing: "Brother, are the Gu family still unwilling to move out? This yard is about to be demolished, what is their plan? The developer promised to give them an extra 5.00% Isn't the compensation money enough?"

Liu Zhuang's father stuffed him with a pack of cigarettes, and explained, "It's not that you don't know how old you are. Where is the compensation? My siblings are really reluctant..."

"I know, but the child of brother Gu's family has been dead for 15 years. No matter how sad you are, you can't change anything. Even if you guard this old house, it's useless. I didn't say that Xiao Chen was too stubborn. Her son is extremely strict and never gives good looks, and he doesn't look like his own. Now... people can't be resurrected after death, so you have to look away.

Xiao Chen is stubborn, look at the Yan family, who gave birth to a second son, who is about to graduate from elementary school now, and will not miss things like the house, and moved away long ago.People, always look forward, you can't always live in the memories of the past.Brother Liu, please persuade them more, alas..." The old man wearing a red armband shook his head and left slowly.

Liu Zhuang's father looked at the house on the west side of the compound and sighed in place.

Where they couldn't see, Lincoln felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was about to lose his footing.Brooke supported him worriedly, keeping him from falling down.

Lincoln grabbed Brook's arm and asked in a daze, "Did you hear what they said? My mother..."

"Auntie misses you very much and wants to stay in the old house and wait for you to come home." Brooke whispered.

Lincoln's eyes turned red instantly, he pushed Brook away, and limped towards his home quickly.

As soon as he stepped into the house, he saw a thin, slightly hunched middle-aged woman who was wiping the dust off the picture frame on the wall with a rag.Lincoln could only see her side face. Her eyes were sunken, her eyelids were red and swollen, her face was sallow and dry, and her head was covered with white hair. She looked extremely old, not at all like someone in her early fifties.

She carefully wiped the photo frame hanging on the wall. Inside the frame was a photo of a teenager with black hair and black eyes, smiling recklessly and flamboyantly, exuding youthful flavor.He is in full bloom, high-spirited, with a happy smile on his brows and eyes, people will be infected by him just by looking at him, and they will also be involuntarily happy.

But the boy has left this world forever, his laughter will never be heard, his smile will never be seen again, forever...

Another middle-aged man came out of the kitchen. He was not as sad as the woman, but very resolute.The man was holding a wooden box in his hand, which was full of things—comic books, sports magazines, badminton, Transformers, and it looked like a boy's stuff.

Seeing the woman cleaning the photo frame again, he sighed and persuaded: "Take down Zi Zi's photo and put it away, it will be moved in a few days, don't break it."

Gu's mother didn't seem to hear it, and it was still the same.

"My wife, don't be like this. If I see you like this, I will feel sorry for you." Papa Gu came over and hugged her shoulders to comfort her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he mentioned Gu Zizai's name, two lines of tears flowed from Gu's mother's eyes, and she became excited: "I really miss our family's Zizai! It would be great if he could come to see me! After so many years, I never dreamed about him, he must still be angry with me, and won't come to see me!

I regretted why I was so strict with Zizi in the past. I knew he wanted me to praise him more, but I always insisted on educating him in my way with the thoughts and ideas of hoping for success.Many times he got full marks in the exam, and when he handed me the report card, he looked at me eagerly.I know...he is waiting for my praise, but I just keep my mouth shut, for fear that he will be too proud...

But I am very happy in my heart. Although Zizai is naughty, he has a good personality, cheerful and lively, and he is very kind-hearted.Why am I not satisfied!What does it matter if he is so demanding and can't get good grades?He is still my favorite son.

Son, you have always been the pride of mother, mother misses you so much, don't be angry with mother, okay?Come and see me... my son! "

Gu's mother burst into tears, her heart was broken from crying, she looked like she was insane.She called out Gu Zizai's name, telling her regret and sadness.Father Gu carried her to the sofa and sat down, patting her on the back to comfort her, and his eyes turned red.

Lincoln standing at the door also burst into tears.

He did have resentment towards his mother in the past, and felt that he was not like her own, so it was fine to be strict with him, and he never gave him a gentle smile.No matter how well he did it, he would not praise him, but always praised Yan Xuyang, saying that it would be great if he had such a son.He didn't feel the kindness and love from his mother, only spurs and reprimands. For a young man, he couldn't accurately understand the painstaking efforts of Gu's mother.

It is the expectation of all parents in the world to hope that their children will become dragons, but they have their own education methods, and children's personalities are also very different, so it needs to be different from person to person.Gu's mother made a mistake that many parents have, that is, she doesn't look at the problem from the child's perspective, and blindly imposes her own ideas on Gu Zizai.

It's only after he's gone that he regrets it.

Brook hugged Lincoln tightly behind him, comforting him silently.They can't say or do anything because they left this world 15 years ago.Looking at Gu's mother crying bitterly on the sofa, Brook felt sorry for her—what's the use of regretting after losing it?

"Dad...Mom..." Lincoln felt uncomfortable, but unfortunately the other party couldn't hear what he said.

At this moment, he and Brooke glowed with light again, the same as when they left the temple.Lincoln was very anxious, and wanted to tell his parents what was in his heart, and wanted to tell him that his mother was not angry, but before he could say it, he disappeared on the earth.

Back in the stone chamber of the temple, Lincoln was held in Brook's arms, weeping silently.

Brook gently wiped away his tears and said, "Don't be sad, everything will pass."

"Hmm." Lincoln sniffed his nose and held back his tears.

The two turned their heads to look at the magical crystal ball, and learned about the follow-up life of their family members. Some of them have already started a new life, and some of them are still immersed in their memories.However, there are no hurdles in the world that cannot be overcome. One day, you will live a happy life.

But Lincoln and Brook bid farewell to the earth completely, and will continue to move forward along the trajectory of their lives.

On the way forward, fortunately, they have each other's company, so that they will not feel lonely and walk more steadily.

The two looked at each other, saw themselves in each other's eyes, and smiled slowly.
