Master loves me alone [Western Fantasy]

Little Cyril was unwilling to share his master with anyone. He didn't answer little Liz's words at all, but pretended to ask curiously: "Liz, why is your mother always so strict with you?"

When he asked this, it brought back Liz's sadness. Liz replied in frustration: "Mother is the queen, and I am a princess. I will inherit the throne and protect the elves in the future. That's why mother is so strict."

Little Cyril shook her head, "I don't think it's right. Being strict with you doesn't conflict with caring for you, but I think the Queen of Elf treats you coldly, only being strict but not caring."

Little Liz couldn't accept that her mother didn't love her, so she stood up and said loudly, "It's not like what you said, don't talk nonsense!"

Little Cyril immediately comforted: "I made a mistake, Liz, don't be angry."

Little Liz sat down angrily.

Little Cyril asked again: "But Liz, I think there is a reason for this, and don't lose your temper with me, there is a reason for everything, right?"

"What's the reason for that?" whispered little Liz.

Little Cyril pretended to be careless and said: "In our human race, children are conceived by their mothers with their bodies, so mothers will love their children very much. But in the elves, as far as I know, all elves are created by the god of life. The pure elves will be adopted by the queen. If there were two pure elves, the elf queen would not have only you as a daughter. If you were not a pure elf, then the elf queen would raise another elf .

You see, Liz, you're not important at all, are you? "

Little Liz burst into tears, looking very pitiful with tears in her eyes.

Little Cyril took out the handkerchief she carried with her in a very gentlemanly manner to wipe her tears, and little Liz asked whimperingly, "Is it true that the tree of life is my mother?"

It's over, the little girl who is one year younger than little Cyril has been completely abducted.

Little Cyril said solemnly: "According to the logic, it is so."

Little Liz was even more sad: "But the Tree of Life can't move or talk, how can it be my mother?"

Little Cyril wiped her tears: "It's not like this, Liz. My teacher once told me that everything in the world has a soul, animals that can run and jump have souls, and plants and trees that don't move also have souls. Maybe they just can't speak our language."

Hearing little Cyril said that this was what Lord Lance said, little Liz believed it seventy percent at first, and she asked, "Really?"

Little Cyril said deeply: "My teacher said that there is a magic that allows us to communicate with other creatures."

Little Liz immediately became excited, she shed tears, "Then Peter, please help me, I want to talk to the Tree of Life."

Little Cyril said in embarrassment: "Liz, you should understand that the place where the Tree of Life is located is an important place for the elves. Usually, most elves are not allowed to enter, let alone I am just an outsider?"

Little Liz immediately said proudly: "Don't be afraid, I'm a princess, I can go in."

Staring at little Liz's expectant gaze, little Cyril thought for a moment before reluctantly saying, "Okay then."

After discussing everything with little Liz, little Liz left happily, while little Cyril returned to the side hall where he and Tan Qiushui lived together.

There was no one in the side hall, little Cyril finished dinner alone, then sat on the steps of the door and waited until very late, when Tan Qiushui came back stepping on the night.

Little Cyril immediately ran over and said happily: "Master, you are back!"

When Tan Qiushui saw his little apprentice, he couldn't help showing a gentle smile, rubbed little Cyril's head, and then led little Cyril into the house.

But little Cyril could clearly see the fatigue that could not be concealed lightly written on Tan Qiushui's face.

He knew the reason for this, because of the divine water of life, Tan Qiushui had made a deal with the Elf Queen, and Tan Qiushui had been busy with this matter for half a month.

Master has worked so hard, and little Cyril feels distressed and ashamed.It's all for me. Does that mean that as long as I can get the god of life, I don't have to work so hard?

In the middle of the night, the elves guarding the Tree of Life also rested, and two children tiptoed outside the Tree of Life.

In addition to the daily guards outside the Tree of Life, there is also a powerful magic circle, but this magic circle is not suitable for elves with pure elven blood.

Little Liz pricked her finger with a needle, and smeared the blood on the core lines of the magic circle at the entrance. The forest vines that blocked them like a wall without gaps were withdrawn and turned into a road. .

"Peter, come with me." Little Liz led the way, and little Cyril followed her carefully observing the surroundings.The outer perimeter of the elves was tightly guarded, but when they entered the range of the Tree of Life, they were quiet and peaceful, without any traps or protection.

Little Cyril finally saw the belief of the elves - the tree of life.

The God of Life Tree is very big, and its canopy can probably accommodate half of the elf palace. Its strong roots are climbing on a huge stone, which is covered with green moss. Below the raised stone is On one side of the pool, the water flowing out from the pool merged into a meandering stream, which flowed into the forest and became a river of life surrounded by elves.

At night, countless fireflies shuttled in the canopy of the God of Life Tree, and the bright moonlight shone down, and the green leaves could be seen clearly.

"This is the tree of life of the elves." Little Liz opened her hand and circled under the canopy. When a gust of wind blew, the tree of life made a rustling sound, as if she knew that an elf had come to its feet.

"Peter, I'm going to talk to the Tree of Life soon."

Little Cyril kept staring at the Tree of Life, and said perfunctorily, "Okay, close your eyes."

Liz closed her eyes expectantly.

"Open your hands."

Little Liz opened her right palm again.

Little Cyril took out two crystal balls of the same size from the bracelet, and put one of them in Little Liz's hand.

Little Liz: "Huh? What is this?"

Little Cyril: "Don't talk, you will be able to talk to the Tree of Life soon." A psychedelic look appeared on Little Liz's face.

Of course, there is no way to talk to the trees. These two crystal balls are just small things made by Tan Qiushui to tease little Cyril. After leaving the mermaid, little Cyril was very interested in illusion, but he temporarily Can't learn magic, so Tan Qiushui took this thing to comfort him.

The two crystal balls are placed in the hands of different people, and the person who controls them can pull each other into the illusion.Little Cyril thought that he was still very kind, and he gave little Liz a gentle and loving mother, and the image of the mother in the illusion, little Cyril copied the image of the elf queen.

Now she can get her wish.Little Cyril smiled with satisfaction and drew out a dagger.

Holding the dagger, little Cyril ran to the bottom of the God of Life tree, squatted at the bottom of the trunk, found a thick root, and inserted the dagger into it forcefully.

Many people mistakenly think that the water of life is the pool of water at the foot of the tree of life. In fact, this is not the case. The water of life refers to the sap of the tree of life. It is because the sap from the bottom of the tree roots seeps out slowly and regularly, and drips into the pool water.

Little Cyril inserted the dagger in, and the juice would flow out along the blade of the dagger. He waited with an open glass bottle.

But little Cyril couldn't think of it at all. As soon as he inserted the dagger into the root of the tree, mysterious lines suddenly flashed one after another from the place where the dagger was inserted. s things!

Little Cyril is very familiar with this miraculous pattern, it often appears on the alchemy works refined by his master, on various utensils used by the master, and on the magic circle drawn by the master .

"Peter, why did you come here?"

Little Cyril turned back in horror, and found that Tan Qiushui was walking towards him, and on the other side, the Elf Queen also entered this area with many attendants holding torches.

At this moment, little Cyril remembered that his behavior must be wrong in the eyes of the master, and panickedly tried to block the dagger inserted into the tree trunk with his body.

The Elf Queen walked past Liz with a look of resentment, how could she have such a stupid daughter.

Tan Qiushui walked over, grabbed little Cyril's arm and lifted him up. The elf queen saw the dagger stuck in the tree of life, and her face was so dark that it could melt into the night.

Tan Qiushui hugged little Cyril behind him, while apologizing to the Elf Queen: "It's because I didn't teach well enough, and I hope Your Majesty the Queen will forgive me." While mobilizing his power, he pulled the dagger from the Divine Tree of Life and healed the wound on the Divine Tree. Wound.

This behavior completely suppressed the elf queen's anger, making it difficult for her to speak out if she wanted to blame her.At this moment, Mrs. Marlene suddenly called out anxiously: "The princess has fainted."

It turned out that little Liz fell to the ground, and little Cyril's heart skipped a beat. No matter what, he didn't want anything to happen to Liz.

The elf queen walked over anxiously, and Tan Qiushui led little Cyril along with her. The elf queen couldn't see what was wrong with Liz, so little Xiril hurriedly said to Tan Qiushui: "Master, I didn't harm Liz, I didn't hurt Liz. Just used a crystal ball."

Little Cyril quickly handed the crystal ball to Tan Qiushui, Tan Qiushui looked at it and said, "Princess Liz is fine, but she will be lethargic for a few days."

It turned out that little Cyril's improper grasp of strength when using the crystal ball led to this consequence.

The Elf Queen felt relieved, and said unceremoniously to Tan Qiushui: "Your work is almost over, I hope you can finish it as soon as possible."

The sacred tree of life is the belief of the elves. Little Cyril's behavior undoubtedly violated the bottom line of the elf queen. She said that, it was equivalent to seeing off a guest.

Tan Qiushui also had self-knowledge, and promised, "It will end tomorrow."

Little Xi Ruier was led back by Tan Qiushui with his head down, it was the first time he saw his master with such a serious expression.Tan Qiushui sat without saying a word, leaving little Cyril in front of him.

Little Xi Ruier's heart became more and more flustered, he would rather the master teach him and scold him.He didn't want to disappoint Master, what if Master was disappointed and he was no longer wanted?

Little Xi Ruier was frightened by his own imagination and cried, hugged Tan Qiushui's leg with a whimper, "Master, I was wrong, I just didn't want you to work so hard—why did they make you work so hard—"

Tan Qiushui was discouraged immediately, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, he picked him up and put him on his lap to comfort him, he forgot about the reprimand after thinking about it for a long time, and just asked: "Peter thinks it's not worth Master's hard work?"

Little Cyril nodded with a red nose, Tan Qiushui put his hand on his head and rubbed it, and said softly: "No, Peter, you must know that you are very important in Master's heart, so a small bottle of life water It is very important, and it deserves a lot of hard work from Master."

Little Cyril buried her head in Tan Qiushui's arms.

"So, does Peter know what's wrong?" Tan Qiushui patted little Cyril on the back of the head.

Little Cyril buried her head in Tan Qiushui's arms, and shook her head cautiously.

Tan Qiushui straightened him up, and while wiping his tears, he emphasized gently but seriously: "If you don't ask yourself, you are stealing. Stealing is a very low-level behavior, and it is shameless for a gentleman. That's why we need to exchange with the elves. Does Peter understand?"

Little Cyril nodded emphatically. No one told him this before. Before he was caught by Baritwa, he was even encouraged to steal, and only his master would teach him.

Only then did Tan Qiushui heave a sigh of relief.

On the second day, Tan Qiushui completed all the work in one day, and channeled the power of the forest into the tree of life. The tree of life cannot breed elves because it lacks sufficient power.

Then Tan Qiushui got the water of life, and left with little Xi Ruier.

For young Liz, just as she didn't know when they arrived, she didn't know when they left.

All she knew was that when she awoke from her sweet dream, she was caught off guard by the Elf Queen's severe punishment, and that Cyril, whether intentional or not, had provoked a rift between her and her mother and exploited her friendship.
