[Comprehensive Fairy Tale] A long, long time ago

31. Aladdin's Lamp

It's just that they still haven't seen Ariana's older brother, and they don't know what John and Ariana said in the front. When Lilith and Monica returned to the front, John was standing at the door: "Let's go!" Well, the journey is still long, we have to continue on our way.”

Lilith glanced at Ariana subconsciously, and saw that Ariana was staring at John, her beautiful eyes were full of complicated expressions——Lilith froze for a moment: Did she have a blind eye? With a little fear?

John was her own son, so what was there to fear?Lilith was puzzled, and before she could figure out why, Monica had already followed John out.Lilith could only follow, and nodded to Ariana before leaving.Ariana smiled at Lilith, and waved her hand lightly.

When the three of them set foot on the road again, John obviously talked a lot less.He walked ahead without saying a word.Lilith was still in a trance thinking about the look in Ariana's eyes just now, and she was also in a trance.It wasn't until Monica suddenly called out that the two came back to their senses: "What's wrong?"

"John," Monica looked around, "Is this... the place you want to take us?" John frowned and looked around: "The direction is right." "The place is wrong," Lilith said carefully Looking at the map carefully, "What is this place? We should have walked to the waterhole."

Monica carefully observed the surrounding swamp, she frowned and turned around, and whispered: "Is there smoke in the swamp?" Lilith was startled, she looked around, indeed, in the The ground of the swamp was covered in a faint layer of smoke at some point, as if it was covered with a veil.

It's just this veil, I don't know how many things are hidden inside.Lilith couldn't help swallowing, and put the map close to her body again: "Let's go ahead, I'm in front." Monica wanted to say something, but Lilith opened her right hand, a long flaming scythe It appeared in her hands out of thin air.

Then Lilith looked at Monica blankly: "What did you just say?" "...No." Monica looked at the sickle and swallowed all the words.Lilith cleared the way in front, John was at the back, Monica and Shadow followed in the middle, and the three gradually walked inside.

The fog is getting thicker and thicker, and Lilith's heart is also tense. She really doesn't have much actual combat experience. The reason why she proposes to lead the battle is because she is taking the route of opening and closing, and she can be defeated in a fight. .

"There's something in front," John said suddenly, "Be careful." Lilith slowed down a bit, she walked forward, and as the distance shortened, the fog-shrouded thing also revealed its appearance.When Lilith saw the appearance of the thing clearly, she stopped in her tracks: "It's a pool of water."

John stood beside her, frowning: "This is the place we are looking for." Lilith walked to the edge of the pool, and did not dare to withdraw the long scythe in her hand: "The water in the pool is still very clear...but you Said the magic lamp is here, where is it?"

Monica also stood by the pool. She knelt down and stirred the pool with a branch, then threw the branch aside: "There is nothing in this pool."

Lilith also squatted beside Monica, not caring about her own image problem at all: "John, come and see." John dusted off the dust on his body, and also squatted down: "It says on the paper that the magic lamp is In the first puddle I encountered."

Lilith pondered for a while: "Then it should be at the bottom of the pool?" Monica nodded, "Let's go down and have a look." "It doesn't need to be so troublesome," Lilith stood up and moved her body, "Just burn it dry." .”

"Ah?!" Before Monica could react, she stepped back subconsciously.Lilith giggled, and a faint blue flame was ignited in both hands.John's eyes tightened, and he held Monica: "Don't go over."

I saw that the faint blue flame didn't grow bigger, but was getting smaller and smaller by Lilith rubbing her hands, and it was crushed to the size of a fist in a short while.It's just that Monica stood beside John and could feel the boiling heat so far away from Lilith, so she knew that the flame must not be underestimated.

I still used flames to transform into shapes before, how can I compress the flames into this shape now?Monica was dumbfounded, her mouth involuntarily opened wide.John stared closely at Lilith's every move, his eyes very solemn.

"It's almost like this." Lilith's forehead had some faint sweat, and she seemed to lift up the blue fireball with great difficulty, and threw the fireball into the pool in a stone-throwing gesture.

For at least half a moment, there was no response from the water pool.Just when Monica thought Lilith had failed, she heard a small sound coming from the pool.Monica tilted her head and listened for a while, only to feel that the sound was getting louder and louder. It sounded like... the sound of water boiling?

"Back Lilith!" Monica yelled, and Lilith hurriedly backed up too. Just as she retreated to Monica's side, there was a "boom", and the water in the entire pool boiled , The dark blue flame wrapped the pool of water, turning it into water vapor at a speed visible to the naked eye bit by bit.The three of them watched the pool water evaporate as if they were stupid, and after a while, the pool water dried up.

"Gudong." Lilith's throat moved, she looked blankly at her hand - did she really do this?This is too scary!When did she have such a powerful force?

Shadow seemed to be frightened, and when he saw Lilith again, he was very docile, sitting beside her straight, without flicking his tail.Monica didn't dare reach out to touch Lilith's hand: "...you really boiled the pool dry."

Lilith smiled wryly: "I... To be honest, I didn't expect it either, believe it or not?" "Stop talking about it." The only one who remained calm was John.He walked to the edge of the burnt water pool with two long legs, because the temperature of the flame was too high, even now there was a smell of mud, accompanied by a little water vapor.

John looked at the bottom of the pool, and saw a dimmed magic lamp lying on the bottom of the pool. Because the flame temperature was too high just now, the magic lamp was burned again, barely revealing some of its brilliant appearance .

Of course it still looks broken.

"It's really a magic lamp." Lilith smashed her mouth, "Then it won't even burn out." John shook his head slowly: "No, it's not a magic lamp."

The second daughter was stunned for a moment, but saw that John had already jumped off the bottom of the pool, and Lilith and Monica also jumped down.John walked to the magic lamp and brushed off some dirt: "Look carefully."

Monica and Lilith approached, only to see that the magic lamp was engraved on a door!It turned out to be just a raised sign.Lilith was a little frustrated, but then she became excited again: "In that case, is the magic lamp inside this door?"

John and Monica looked at each other, and Monica took out a small shovel from her waist: "Get out of the way, I'll do it." So John and Lilith looked at Monica with a very At a fast speed, he cleaned up the dirt and gravel around the door.It didn't take long, and soon the door revealed her original appearance.

It was a gate composed of two doors, firmly embedded in the ground, as if it had grown together with the ground, it was tightly fitted, and there was no way to open it.The two magic lamps on the door are engraved on the left and right doors respectively, with the lamp mouth facing the lamp mouth, which looks quite stylish.

Lilith reached out her hand to touch the door, and made a conclusion: "Stone is the hardest rock. It can't be boiled or smashed. How can I get in?" Monica thought for a while, and silently took out the box that John gave her. firebox.

The elf came out of the tinder box with a face of reluctance, and was stunned when he saw the surrounding environment: "...What did you do?" "Lilith boiled the pool dry." John said lightly .The elf immediately showed a startled expression: "What did you do?"

Lilith nodded with a stiff smile, and once again mourned in her heart for her image of a princess who was gone forever and became more and more fast-paced.

"Yes!" The elf slapped Lilith on the shoulder, with a look of "I admire you very much, sister", "Amazing, it seems that your strength has increased to burn this pool of water dry. "

"Okay, stop talking," Lilith quickly interrupted her, "I called you out because I have something to ask of you." The elf looked at Monica: "What's wrong?"

Monica said to her: "Take us into this door." Hearing this, the elf leaned on the door, knocked a little with his hand twice, and then said very simply: "I can't do it."

You can't do it again!What can you do!It is said that the tinder box is omnipotent!Lilith complained frantically in her heart.The elf glanced at her and said, "It's not because I'm stingy. This door is covered with the magic power of the magic lamp. He's much more powerful than me. Of course I can't open it."

"Then what should we do?" Monica murmured, "If you want to go in, you have to open the door." "It's easy." The elf laughed, "Going in is not difficult, nor is it easy. As long as you guess the mantra of King Aladdin back then, you can open the door and go in."

"The formula?" Lilith looked at the elf, and the strange feeling in her heart surged up again. ()
