Wife is not divorced

Ah Li thought she had brought back a hostage; unexpectedly, what she brought back was actually a big trouble.

Originally thought that (...) she was the one who suffered the disadvantage, but it turned out that Chu Chisi didn't care at all, and even enjoyed it a little bit.

The cave was already full of treasures, apart from gold coins, gems, crowns and other hard objects, of course there were also many high-quality silks and carpets.

As Chu Chisi walked up and down, the vines obediently attached to her side, picking and choosing among the mountains of gold coins, and turned out all the usable things.

Ali: "???"

What the hell is this man doing?

The vines raised a beautiful blanket with exotic patterns painted on it, Chu Chisi reached out and touched it, very satisfied: "It's fluffy."

But all the soft and comfortable fabrics were dug out from the pile of gold coins by Chu Chisi, and the vines were diligently holding them in his hands, and followed him like a private soldier.

Then, Chu Chisi found a dry, ventilated small corner facing north and south, folded all the fabrics neatly and meticulously, and then made a bed for himself.

Ali: "..."

She couldn't help but doubt life a little.

"Do you really understand the current situation?" A Li crossed her arms, her voice displeased, "You are my hostage now, a lowly prisoner."

Chu Chisi pointed to the bed: "I didn't intend to run away, I just made a bed."

Ali: "..."

Ah Li still wanted to say something, but as soon as she met her black grape-like eyes, her voice completely died down, stuck in her throat.

Chu Chisi is good-looking, with a cold appearance that can only be seen from a distance, but when he was holding the corner of her skirt and begging for mercy, he was so soft that honey could leak out.

Ah Li's ears turned red, she gritted her teeth, and turned around angrily: "Forget it, just be happy."

She took a few steps, the bat wings stretched out, and soon disappeared into the distance in the shape of a dragon.

Ali returned to the vicinity of the kingdom, and took a look at the town from afar on the top of the hill.

The restriction that was originally lowered was raised again by the conjurer at this moment, and it shrouded the town like a mist, covering up the restlessness inside.

Unlike mages and witches, who naturally know how to manipulate magic, conjurers must use spell seals as a medium to cast different spells.

And the curse seal is drawn by blood.

Just to seal Ah Li, the conjurer in the brave team was about to run out of life.

Because of this, the conjurer is not a threat to the king, but a chess piece that can be used more.

The threatening, terrifying and arrogant dragon broke free, killed the brave man, and kidnapped the only magician in the kingdom-all kinds of factors added up, the city must have been turned upside down long ago.

Around the boulder, the cold wind howled.

Huge bat wings folded behind him, thin clouds fluttered beside him, and he could take back a touch of coolness with his hand.

Ah Li looked at the town in the fog from a distance, and suddenly the words of that person rang in his ears.

【revenge. 】Chu Chisi's voice was very weak, 【I want you to become powerful and bring endless disasters to the kingdom. 】

Although the dragon clan is a solitary creature, it is impossible for Ali not to be angry when the clan members are killed one after another. She can't wait to turn the kingdom upside down immediately, but due to its powerful strength, it is still unable to fight against it.

But there is a strange thing, the dragons have lived far away for a long time, why is the king so eager to get rid of their threat?

Why did Chu Chisi say those words to himself?Why does she want revenge?

Ah Li thought for a while, but she couldn't figure it out. When she spread her wings and flew back to the entrance of the cave, the guy was actually lying on the newly made bed, sleeping soundly.

Ali: "..."

The bat wings set off a huge air current, and the whistling wind woke up Chu Chisi. She was wearing a robe she found out from the pile of gold coins, and she frowned at Ah Li.

"What are we having for dinner?"

Chu Chisi said, "I'm a little hungry."

Ah Li retracted her wings and transformed back into a human form by the way. She stood at the door of the cave, a little at a loss: "Dinner?"

Chu Chisi looked at her, filled with deep disappointment: "You didn't bring back anything, did you?"

Ah Li was inexplicably guilty, "No?"

"It took you so much energy to bring back a hostage from the kingdom," Chu Chisi said seriously, "Are you going to watch the hostage die of hunger?"

Ali fell into deep thought: "..."

In fact, according to Chu Chisi's ability, she could go find something to eat by herself, but A Li didn't know why, she just stared at her for a while, and then flew away disheartened.

When she came back again, she had a newly dead young deer in her mouth, and threw it in front of Chu Chisi with a "plop".

The beautiful dragon turned its head awkwardly, curled up at the entrance of the cave, hooked its tail in the air, and wrapped it around her waist: "Eat."

Chu Chisi looked at her disappointedly, the condemnation in his eyes was self-evident: "I don't eat raw meat."

Ah Li has a headache: "..."

A wisp of fire spewed out, and the young deer was instantly roasted charcoal black, and the outer skin was still smoking, and there was a faint smell of burnt.

Chu Chisi found a dagger from nowhere, cut off a piece of the venison, and then silently looked at A Li beside him.

Ah Li felt uncomfortable being watched by her, and couldn't help closing her sharp claws: "What's wrong?"

"Look for yourself." Chu Chisi was very angry, "The skin is burnt, the inside is undercooked, and there is blood - how can I eat this?"

Ali: "..."

That magician is really a miraculous figure. Although she grumbled and complained, she still cut around the deer and managed to find a few places that were not burnt but were baked.

That's all for dinner.

In the blink of an eye, it was another morning, this day Ah Li disappeared early in the morning, leaving only Chu Chisi wandering around in the cave quite bored.

The vines obediently followed her, and the leaves were filled with crystal dew. She drank a few and bit a few fruits, and it was right for breakfast.

Just as Chu Chisi was worrying, wondering if Xiaolong had abandoned him and ran away, there was a sound of flapping wings from the sky, and it was Ah Li who had returned.

"Back" with her was a little wild boar that was roasted crispy and sizzling with oil.

Ah Li lightly placed the little wild boar on the clean oil paper, pressed her paws to the ground, and dug out several deep ditches: "Here you are."

Chu Chisi glanced at the roast suckling pig, his eyes obviously brightened, and he sincerely praised: "Your craftsmanship is really good."

A simple sentence made the dragon a little embarrassed, and spewed out a few sparks, scorching a bush next to the cave.

Except for her, no one knew that for this perfect little roast suckling pig, the woods not far away were already piled up with charred roast meat all over the floor.

Ah Li was debating whether to transform into a human form, but Chu Chisi's hand came up suddenly, and gently patted her head.

She said softly: "It's so cute."

Different from the hardness and coldness of sharp claws, it is a touch unique to human beings, soft and soft, leaving a faint fragrance on the scales.

Fortunately, Ah Li was still in the shape of a dragon, otherwise he would have seen a red cloud rise from the tips of his ears and burn all the way to the back of his neck, fully revealing his thoughts.

Chu Chisi touched her, and quickly focused on the little roast pig. The vine blades were like knives, and he quickly chopped the little pig into pieces.

Ali shuddered silently.

Perhaps because of being far away from the town, the curse seal that was like a necrosis slowly dissipated, gradually returning the sealed power to her.

The life of a dragon is very boring. In addition to grabbing shiny things everywhere, Ah Li has a new interest recently:

Observe the little magician every day.

Compared to herself who goes to bed early and gets up early and hunts regularly every day, Chu Chisi's work and rest are extremely chaotic. Sometimes she sleeps until the sun rises, and sometimes she uses the moonlight to fiddle with those weird little medicine bottles all night.

She likes to eat, and she likes to sleep, but sometimes she doesn't sleep well at night.

Ah Li woke up in the middle of the night once, and saw Chu Chisi sitting on a branch outside the cave, submerged in the moonlight, completely transparent.

"Do you want to leave?" she asked nervously.

Chu Chisi just shook his head, his casual voice drifted in the wind: "I have nowhere to go."

The cave is not restricted, and she often goes out hunting, leaving so many gaps for Chu Chisi, she can leave here casually.

But she didn't,

She's been here forever.

I don't know when it started, maybe it was the dragon's natural possessiveness, or maybe she looked at the moon too sadly, A Li wanted to keep her.

As a result, the three meals a day became more varied. Ali racked her brains to find the freshest fruit and the best prey, and gave them to her as if they were offering treasures.

After coming and going, even Chu Chisi was a little suspicious: "Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"

Ali argued: "No, it's just that I have eaten less recently, so I brought it back by the way."

Chu Chisi looked at her suspiciously, and finally said nothing, but ate all the small fruits he brought back.

The curse seal faded day by day, and the power that belonged to the dragon gradually returned. Ali was counting the days of revenge every day, but the closer it was, the more panic she felt.

If revenge succeeds...

Is she leaving?

This thought suddenly appeared in his mind, which startled Ali, who was hunting, and the flames he spewed out of control, scorching a large forest.

"Really, what am I thinking?"

Ali stopped at the top of the tree, her tail slammed across the crown of the tree, and there was a clattering sound, sweeping down a large number of fallen leaves.

Ten days ago, due to the seal of the curse, her flame was not very powerful, so it could be used to help Chu Chisi roast meat.

However, as time went by, her strength became stronger and stronger, and she almost caused a forest fire just after being distracted for a moment.

Ah Li turned back into a human form again, and she walked restlessly in the forest, always feeling uncomfortable in her chest, and some strange emotions were surging.

The red dress swept across the fallen leaves, and the gold chain around her waist jingled. Not long after, Ah Li walked to a spring.

She hadn't seen herself in human form yet.

Ah Li swallowed her throat, and she bent down, watching the "person" reflected in the spring water:

Long brown-blonde hair hangs down from her shoulders, and under her long light-colored eyelashes hides a pair of somewhat terrifying vertical pupils, which condense slightly when she is concentrating, like sharp blades.

For... human aesthetics, is my appearance considered beautiful or ugly?

Ah Li bit her lip, thinking with some distress, she turned sideways and shook the long tail behind her.

The dragon clan turned into a human form, only slightly similar in appearance, but in fact it is still very different from "human".

For example, the pointy ears that cannot be changed, the dragon scales on the knuckles, and the dragon tail that is difficult to hide.

Ah Li stood on the stream, her tail also swayed, deftly circled around her body, and tapped on the stream.

Layers upon layers of ripples spread out, shattering the people reflected in them, Ah Li sighed and straightened up silently.

The brown dragon scales reflected the broken light, only the tip of the tail had no scales, it was slender and long, with the same faint pink color as her fingers.

The dragon shape is strong and powerful, but there are only two places that are the most sensitive and fragile: one is the reverse scale hidden in the abdomen, and the other is the dragon tail placed behind.

The tip of the tail has just been pulled out of the stream, and it is covered with a clear and transparent liquid. A drop of dew hangs on the tip of the tail, and it "clicks" back into the pool.

Ah Li took a look, and suddenly her face felt a little hot.

In the clear spring water, she watched a blush rushing to the tips of her ears, like the kind of small red fruit hanging on a tree, buried between the strands of blond hair.

Stop, stop, stop thinking about it.

Ah Li pulled up her messy hair, and her cheeks became more and more red, so she squatted down, picked up a handful of spring water with her hands, and suddenly splashed it on her cheeks.

It was another night, and the fireflies lit small lanterns, floating in the night.

Chu Chisi was sitting on a branch, her calves were dangling, the dinner was blowing through her wet hair, and in the distance was the gentle moonlight.

She couldn't sleep again,

So get up and look at the moon.

The moonlight was bright and clear, covering the entire land like a stream. It was like this a hundred years ago, and it will still be like this a hundred years later. It has never changed.

She has lived for so long that time has lost its meaning. 100 years, 200 years are just useless units of measurement.

Some rustling sounds came from beside her, the leaves were pushed aside, and a "person" leaned a little closer, secretly sitting beside her.

"why are not you sleeping?"

Chu Chisi turned around with a smile.

Compared with the wanton and arrogant at the beginning, the young little dragon has been extra cautious recently, trying to please her in different ways, and often secretly observing her expression.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Ah Li whispered, her tail curled up, tightly hooking the branches under her body.

Chu Chisi didn't answer her question, just smiled, turned around again, and stared at the distant moonlight.

The normally cold voice softened a little under the moonlight: "How old are you this year?"

Ah Li is actually not very used to the human form, but the dragon shape is too huge, and the sharp claws are too sharp, she doesn't want to hurt the porcelain-like person in front of her.

She answered truthfully: "110 years old."

Chu Chisi seemed a little surprised, then pursed her lips lightly, it was the first time Ah Li saw her smile, it was so gentle: "Then I will be older than you."

"When you were a child... no, Xiaolong," Chu Chisi said as if telling a story, "there was a great witch trial."

Ali said: "You once mentioned to me that the king burned many witches to death a hundred years ago, and now history is repeating itself on the Dragon Clan."

Chu Chisi nodded: "But you were too young at the time, do you know how the witch trials ended?"

Ali shook her head, she really didn't know.

In that vigorous trial, not only many hidden witches died, but also countless civilians who were framed and accused.

Regardless of her status and status, as long as someone accuses her of being a "witch", she cannot escape the final judgment. ①

The flames ignited, and one after another the charred bones fell down, filling the bottomless pit.

until--

The real witch appears.

The overly wide brim of the hat covered her face, only revealing a thin chin, like a child stealing an adult's clothes, or a delicate china figure.

The sheepskin boots stepped on the red carpet, and countless vines also emerged from the gaps, covering the stained glass windows of the palace, and covering everyone with darkness.

She didn't even need a staff, just waved her hand, and the black vine wrapped around the gorgeous throne, wrapping the scepter inlaid with precious stones.

"This is the curse I bestow on you."

The witch said calmly, her eyes were dark and deep: "Every 100 years, a terrible disaster will come to this land."

"Your country is in dire straits, your rule is crumbling, and you will be overthrown by the people and die on the throne covered with black velvet pillows."

The king knelt on the ground blankly, begging for her forgiveness, but the witch still left without looking back, and no one saw her again.

The protracted flames were finally extinguished, the cross was removed overnight, and the huge hole was filled with soil, whitewashing everything to its original appearance.

This is how the witch trials ended.

Ali sneered: "So, in order to maintain their dominance and status, this generation of kings chose to slaughter all her 'enemies'."

Among these "enemies" naturally included the Dragon Clan who refused to accept discipline and was thousands of miles away.

Chu Chisi nodded: "Yes."

Ali continued: "When I was young, my mother told me many things about witches: they are close to nature, good at magic, and like to make medicine—"

She frowned and muttered, "But I've never heard of them being able to cast curses."

Chu Chisi smiled, she suddenly leaned over and leaned towards Ah Lidi under the moonlight.

Ah Li was so stiff that she dared not move, she heard the whirling branches and leaves around her, and amidst the bursts of cicadas, Chu Chisi leaned on her and rubbed the tip of her nose.

The breath is intertwined, sweet and warm.

It was obviously just a small movement, but Ah Li's heartstrings were suddenly plucked, and her heart was pounding beside her ears, deafeningly loud.

"But it doesn't matter, does it?"

Chu Chisi pressed against her forehead, her eyes were dark and deep, hiding many unknown secrets.

She leaned against her ear and said softly, "You can never predict what human beings can do for rights."

【It goes round and round, like ouroboros. 】

right?Human beings always seem to yearn for "rights", "status", things like that.As a dragon, Ali is not very able to understand their thinking.

Not as attractive as shiny things.

The moonlight was quiet, soft breathing fell on the side of the face, Chu Chisi only touched the tip of her nose, and then retreated to the original position.

She didn't look at Ali anymore, but turned her head to look at the moon.The quiet, bright moon slanted down from the clouds to the long silver waterfall.

There were some rustling sounds in his ears, Chu Chisi glanced at his side, and found that the dexterous slender tail had wrapped around his waist more than once.

The tip of the tail looked soft, rubbing the clothes around the waist, then sneaking around the body, wrapping Chu Chisi in his arms.

"My mother once told me."

A Li looked at her, her vertical pupils narrowed slightly: "A witch is a cunning, insidious creature who will use any means to achieve her goals."

The evening wind was cold, and he lifted the wide black brim of his hat. Chu Chisi let her hang his tail around him, and said casually, "So?"

"so--"

Ah Li leaned over and looked at her without blinking: "So, when you achieve your goal, will you leave me?"

It was surprisingly straightforward.

Chu Chisi was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and responded casually: "This, maybe."

She said: "I may leave after your curse seal is completely lifted and you succeed in revenge."

【leave?she is leaving? 】

Those furtive thoughts, those hidden anxiety in her heart all burst out at this moment, engulfing her to the top like magma.

His movements were faster than his thoughts, he hooked the tail around his waist and pulled Chu Chisi forward suddenly.

Chu Chisi did not fall from the tree, but was wrapped in a hot embrace, her astonished face was reflected in the vertical pupils, "Ali?"

The second half of the words could not be spoken.

Ah Li bit her lips, swallowed Chu Chisi's breath one by one, and pressed her under the boundless moonlight.

Chu Chisi was a little out of breath from being kissed, her long eyelashes were stained with cold water vapor, and the tip of her nose was also slightly red: "Well, I..."

Ah Li stared at her and circled her tighter.

It was the first time for her to see a flustered look in those black eyes, as if adding a fire to the firewood, making it burn even more vigorously.

The Dragon Clan is lonely and powerful. The Dragon Clan is the most greedy creature in the world. When they see beautiful treasures, they just want to keep them for themselves.

[This is the nature of the Dragon Clan. 】

Want to bully her, want to possess her, want to keep her; want to bury her with layers of gold coins, want to hide her among the most beautiful piles of rubies.

The scaled knuckles parted the broken hair, clasped a small part of the back of Chu Chisi's neck, and the soft skin that only belonged to human beings pressed against her, emitting faint warmth.

The soft lips, soaked in cool water vapor, tasted like cheese, they were bitten, pulled, and melted with a sweet taste.

Ah Li clasped her tighter and bit her word by word: "Chu Chisi, you are the hostage I brought back."

"You are the captive of the dragon, the treasure hidden by the dragon, I caught you in the cave - don't even think about leaving."

Human, magician, or long-extinct witch, it doesn't matter what your identity is, this person in front of you can use her as much as you want, and she agrees.

However, she must not think about leaving.

The tip of the tail was hooked inch by inch, the scaly fingertips brushed against the cheeks, and the fangs were pressed against the lips. It didn't hurt, but it was numb and itchy.

It's not really like a kiss, it's more like a little beast biting her gently, something unspeakable is hidden in her eyes, ready to come out:

"Chu Chisi, you are not allowed to leave."
