The strongest witch is a boy [Comprehensive]

Kartikeye obediently let the human youth lead him through the entire village, and walked in through a narrow cave entrance. After twists and turns along the way, he finally saw the light again.

Eagle quickened his pace and pulled his new friend out of the tunnel.

The bright sun is blowing, and the white flowers blooming everywhere are gently swaying in the wind like clouds.

Kartikeye was momentarily absent-minded.

Ying said proudly: "It's a beautiful place! There are Mana flowers all over the mountains and plains here. Mana likes to come here the most. Now I will share this place with you! Every time there is something unhappy, I just need to come here and lie down for a long time. You'll be in a good mood, and Karl can come."

He lay down demonstratively as he spoke.

Kartikeye was stunned for a moment, then lay down on the ground next to him, and his whole body was immediately surrounded by pure white flowers, with only large expanses of white and the blue sky in the gap in his vision.

He blinked and smiled.

"Thank you, Eagle."

The boy next to him replied cheerfully: "You are welcome, this is not my place. If you want to thank, Karl can thank this land for making the flowers bloom so beautifully."

Kartikeye didn't speak, and looked at the sky quietly for a while, then sat up and looked around, there was a sea of ​​flowers everywhere, just looking at this one place, it was like returning to Renlitian again.

"Eagle... Your Harvest Sacrifice only asks for good weather. Have you ever thought about praying for the protection of the gods, or directly sending you favors to take you away from here?"

Ying also sat up, picked a flower and shook it gently in his hand, straightened his face and replied: "The protection and favor of the gods can indeed make people reach the sky in one step... I have also seen some people who were taken away by the gods. Like those protoss, they live in the floating city in the sky, wear gorgeous clothes, and do easy work. However, there will always be people who are expelled after their appearance declines, or for other reasons, who knows, anyway, human beings are just Human beings will never be regarded as compatriots by the Protoss."

He paused for a moment, and a look of vicissitudes appeared on his young face.

"The life span of human beings and Protoss is too far apart! For Protoss, raising us is probably the same as we raise cattle and sheep. We will look at it when it rises. Once we forget it, maybe the human life will pass like that. If they were recruited to work in the first place, that’s okay, as long as they have the ability, their children and grandchildren can continue to live in the floating city. If it was just a temporary interest of a certain god at the beginning, it might end up being very miserable... Song and Dance Troupe There are many people like that. Carl, you should have seen it? Those who can dress up beautifully to perform songs and dances for the Protoss, when they are young, they are like the real Protoss, and they are treated everywhere. Once they are old, they can’t dance. If you move, you will be kicked out immediately, and you will never want to step into the territory of the Protoss. Many people can't bear this gap and commit suicide. If you blindly pray for God's protection, you will only end up like this—I I want to rely on my own strength so that my people can survive in this world by relying on human abilities."

Kartikeye thought of the song and dance performances he had seen in Shanjian City.

At that time, he didn't care who the performers were. Even with so many musicians, he only knew King Gandharva and Kali, not to mention which race the dancers belonged to, whether they were gods or humans.

Human song and dance troupes might also perform in the floating city of the Protoss?

This is somewhat different from the situation where the Protoss and Human race were strictly separated from what he had thought before.

He thought of Qiandaraja again, and wondered if there were humans living in that flying city.

Ying talked for a long time, then looked at his new friend, and said with some trepidation: "Does Karl think I'm too arrogant? Obviously seeking the protection of the gods is the easiest way, but I don't know how to say these things ...Father also said before that I was always too whimsical, if there is really something that can be appreciated by the gods, who would not follow immediately?"

Kartikeye looked into the young man's eyes, as if he saw an eagle about to spread its wings and take flight. It was an unpolished immature spirit, but it wonderfully aroused the long silence in his heart. unruly.

"No, I think your thinking is correct. The protection given by others may be withdrawn at any time, only your own ability will not disappear."

The eagle froze there for a while, and it took a few minutes before he came back to his senses. He rushed over excitedly, grabbed Kartikeye's hand, his hands were trembling, his lips were trembling for a long time, and he didn't say a word. After a long time, he made a loud noise Said: "Karl... This is the first time, this is the first time someone agrees with my statement! Mana said that it would be best to have God's protection, I always feel uneasy, but as long as I say these words, my father will Hit it again...I..."

The teenager burst into tears as he talked, not because of sadness, but because of excessive excitement and joy. He wiped his tears with the back of his hand in a panic, and said with a smile, "It's great, I, I can meet Karl!" very nice!"

Kartikeye can probably understand the excitement of the other party. If someone told him before that "earth dragons can also protect human beings", he would probably also have the joy of "my way is not alone", and he clapped with his free hand. Pat the boy on the shoulder.

"However, it's not enough to just think so, you have to work harder."

"of course!"

Ying let go of his hand, wiped away the tears on his face indiscriminately, and raised his head high.

"When I make our family rich, everyone can wear silk clothes, eat fine grains, and live in a big house that can block the wind and snow, I will definitely invite Karl to come again!"

Kartikeye nodded with a smile.

"At that time, as long as the eagle sends me a letter, no matter where I am, I will definitely come over to participate in your harvest festival."

Ying patted his chest, "Then it's settled!"

The eyes of the human boy were as bright as a fire, and Kartikeye sincerely wished his wish to come true.Until a long time later, he still clearly remembered this scene.

At that time, Ying was still a high-spirited young man, just like a goshawk leaving its nest, about to attack the sky.

Although the Luozuo people were not rich, the Harvest Festival was still very lively.

The people of the tribe celebrated this year's harvest with simple songs and dances, thanked the gods with grand sacrifices, and prayed for good weather next year.

After the flame that ignited the altar burned for seven days and seven nights, Ying was the first to reach into the hot ashes by virtue of his advantage as the young patriarch, and dug out a small pitch-black pebble from the still red ashes , squeezed out of the crowd in ecstasy, and gave the amulet he had snatched to his new friend.

"Look, Carl! This is for you!"

Kartikeye looked at the burnt fingertips of the other party and the ashes on his hand, sighed in his heart, reached out and took the gift, searched for a while, and found that he didn't bring anything as a gift He hesitated for a while before taking off a hair accessory from his hair.

Although it is said that the maid of the Gandharva family has removed all the accessories on his body as much as possible, but because the hair is too long, it will inevitably require a lot of hair accessories to fix it completely. Even if there are no pure golden ornaments, it is inevitable. There are still some relatively plain parts left.

"Thank you for your gift. Then, let this be a return gift. Thank you for your hospitality these days. I am very happy."

Ying looked at the hair ornament held in the white hand of the other party, but he didn't dare to reach out to take it.

It was a delicate hair crown, which his friend used to fix at the root of the braid to cover the hair ribbon. Now that the hair crown is removed, the ribbon behind it is exposed. The red ribbon is slightly eye-catching in the black hair. But still very nice.

"Can I... can I accept it?"

Kartikeye laughed.

"Of course. Next time I come back, I will bring a more formal gift. I really didn't expect it this time... If the eagle is unwilling to accept it, I may feel embarrassed to bother you again in the future."

Win gritted his teeth and carefully put away the hair accessory.

"That's good. When we get rich in the future, I will give Carl a better one! I saw some hair accessories with gemstones in gold before, and they are very beautiful. Carl must wear them very well." Suitable!"

"..."

It took Kartikeye a while to say thank you reluctantly.

It seems that not only the gods in the heavens have a problem with their aesthetics, but the human race is not much better?

The two wished each other a few words and said goodbye.

Kartikeye continued his journey. On the way, he happened to meet "Mana" who came back from afar. He heard the conversation between the girl and the merchants, and secretly protected her to return to the Luozuo tribe safely. start again in one direction.

The heavens have indeed been at peace for a long time, probably because there is still a mixture of humans and gods. Humans are basically self-aware. The gods have not engaged in civil wars, and humans will not fight without incident. Basically, they encounter wild beasts and demons. will fight.Kartikeye didn’t encounter any robbers blocking the way, but he still met a few thieves, and he sent them away. Occasionally, he would avoid the protoss. On the way, he also saw the eagle. An example of the saying "the gods take people away".

Some Protoss people pass by a certain human tribe, perhaps because they like someone’s appearance or their craftsmanship. As long as they have an agreement with that person, usually the tribe will not stop them, and the whole tribe looks enviously. Seeing that family boarded the flying ride with the protoss, it seemed that they would be happy forever from then on.

Some tribes are even more exaggerated, relying on a certain Protoss to survive all the year round, it seems that the meaning of the existence of the entire tribe is to continuously produce descendants that meet the preferences of that Protoss, in exchange for the right to continue to live in the Protoss territory, just like a Large group of housed pets.But looking at those people's satisfaction from the bottom of their hearts, Kartikeye didn't want to make extra troubles to persuade him.

However, sometimes things are not something you can avoid if you want to avoid it.

In the third year of Kartikeye’s journey on the ground, he was finally stopped by a few people in a certain large-scale human city.

The person walking in the front looked Kartikeye from head to toe several times with a strange look, and silently communicated with his companions with his eyes. Finally, he took out an abacus and fiddled with it for a while , and said very seriously to Kartikeye: "Thirty thousand tiras, are you selling yourself?"

Kartikeye was dumbfounded, and it took him a while to realize who he had met.

Tira is a common currency unit among some relatively large human tribes. Generally speaking, the annual expenditure of a human family of three in this kind of town is only two to three hundred tiras, and a thousand tiras can live well. Yes, [-] tiras can buy half a street in some places. In small places, maybe the whole tribe can be bought as slaves. This is really a very face-saving price.

"No, I don't have that plan."

The author has something to say:

Carl: No, I don't sell ==.
