I turned back to look at her, "I'm going to the monster's territory, are you sure you want to follow?"
Pearl's big eyes were filled with tears and she looked pitiful, but she still held her identity as a dragon princess and stared at me with undiminished aura, "What can I do? You said I won't follow you, what else can I do?
!As a child, I will die if I bask in the sun here. You are the only adult I see. Is there anything else I can do besides following you? Even if you sell me, there is nothing I can do...
…”
At the end of the sentence, there was a cry in his voice, which made him feel even more pitiful.
The climate in Sealed Demon Valley is pleasant, similar to the spring in the Yang world, neither cold nor hot. But I just climbed out of the sea, with wet clothes sticking to my body and a small breeze blowing, I still felt a little cold. Not to mention that Pearl was not wearing any clothes.
, her body was naked, and her skin was gray-white. Now I wonder if the color of her body is caused by freezing.
I stretched out my hand towards her, "Don't worry, I won't betray you. Now I have to go back to the monster's territory to save people. After saving people, I will come back here. At that time, I will bring you back.
Send you back to the sea."
"Really?" Pearl's eyes lit up and she stopped crying immediately. A child's emotions come out quickly and they go back quickly.
She jumped into my arms, twisted her little body a few times, and changed into a comfortable position. Then she put her little tail on my arm and shook it.
"Lin Xi, you are a good person. I won't let you die. Also, when I return to the Dragon Palace, I will ask my father to give you many treasures. If you are good to me, I will be good to you."
She looked at me with big eyes and smiled, with a sincere look on her face.
As soon as I climbed to the top of the mountain, I saw Hua Rong waiting for me not far away.
Hua Rong waved to me, "Lin Xi, come over here quickly!"
When I looked carefully, I discovered that he was standing behind a thin aqua line. This line was probably the national border. Crossing the line meant entering Shuiling's territory.
As I walked, I asked him doubtfully, "Senior Hua Rong, how did you know I was coming back today?"
"I didn't know you were coming back today. I have been waiting here for you. I have been waiting here since the day you left." Hua Rong said, "Since I said I would protect your safety, then I will not give you anything."
Zhai Xiaofeng’s chance to attack you!"
I know that Huarong is so kind to me because of Xiaorui. If I die, Xiaorui will have no one to save me. But even though I know that he has plans for me, I still can't help but feel warm in my heart. He is ours
A noble person met in a desperate situation.
"Did you get the shark bead?" Hua Rong glanced behind me, "Where's the fox? Why are you back alone?"
While talking, he saw the pearl in my arms. Hua Rong looked startled and asked me, "Lin Xi, what are you doing with a little red cockroach?"
Red turtle? Isn’t Pearl the Dragon Girl?
I looked down at Pearl in surprise.
Pearl seemed to be very afraid of Hua Rong. She grabbed my clothes with her little hands and shrank her body into my arms. At the same time, she raised her face and asked me cautiously, "Lin Xi, you are a good person. You will definitely not lie to me because of me."
, you just don’t care about me, right?”
I,"……"
I knew that this little girl's talk about cheating was unreliable, but I really didn't expect that even the identity she told me was false. From the time we met until now, has she ever told the truth?
Maybe it's because everyone thinks that children should be innocent, kind and cute. Therefore, children's lies are more annoying than adults' lies.
No matter how cute she is, her constant lies and deceptions are annoying. I looked at her coldly and said, "Are all the things you told me false?"
Pearl was very good at reading people's eyes. When she saw that I was angry, she immediately explained, "Sister, I only told a little lie. The rest of the words were all the truth. I was playing in the sea and met a fat man. I wanted to avoid the fat man."
I just carried your legs to the shore. Also, I lied to you that I was a dragon princess. I just hope that you will be afraid of me after knowing my identity, then listen to my words and send me back to the sea. Big sister, although I
I lied, but I'm just a kid and I don't have any other bad intentions."
With this innocent face, I didn’t want to believe a word of what she said.
I asked her, what exactly is she?
Without waiting for her answer, Hua Rong said, "She is a little red turtle who lives in the deep sea. The red turtle tribe has average magic power, but they are born with a clever mouth and can speak eloquently. This is their natural ability. In addition to their love of lying,
They actually have no attack power because they are too weak and are about to be exterminated. By the way, Lin Xi, do you know what they feed on?"
I shook my head. Hua Rong's question gave me a bad feeling.
Hua Rong chuckled, "The red turtle feeds on memories. Lin Xi, if you hold her so close to her, be careful that she eats your memories."
I was startled and quickly bent down and put the pearl on the ground.
Pearl was afraid that I would ignore her, so she explained anxiously, "Sister, that's not the case. We can eat other people's memories, but that is a means of escape when we encounter danger. Sister, you are good to me,
I won't eat your memory, I hope you remember me."
Her big eyes flashed anxiously, she was expecting me to believe her.
I looked at her and my heart softened little by little. I really couldn't help such a tiny child.
I told Pearl that she can follow me, but she must not have bad thoughts. I am surrounded by masters like Hua Rong. If she doesn't want to die, she should stay honest.
Pearl nodded repeatedly, wiped her tears, and told me that she would be obedient.
Hua Rong doesn't take Pearl seriously at all. He doesn't have a problem with whether I take her in or not. Anyway, with him watching, a little monster like Pearl can't do any bad things.
Noticing the injury to my calf, Hua Rong first conjured up a bottle of ointment and handed it to me. After I finished applying the ointment, he conjured up a carriage. Pearl and I sat in the carriage, and Hua Rong drove all the way to Baiqing.
Awesome house.
When I got out of the car at the gate of the house, I saw Hua Rong again. The Hua Rong who was driving the car had already disappeared.
I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that this was correct. How could Hua Rong stay on the top of the mountain and wait for me for so many days? He must have created an illusion.
Zhai Xiaofeng stood next to Hua Rong. When she saw me coming back, she held out her hand to me with a cold face and said confidently, "Where's the shark beads?"
I took out the shark beads from my pocket.
Zhai Xiaofeng took it over, glanced at it, and then used her fingers suddenly to crush the shark bead. Fortunately, Hua Rong reacted quickly enough and reached out to snatch the shark bead from Zhai Xiaofeng's hand.
"What are you doing?" Hua Rong, who always had a playful smile, now had a cold voice, indicating that he was angry.
He asked Zhai Xiaofeng, "You asked Lin Xi to get the shark bead, and she got it back, but you want to destroy the shark pearl? Zhai Xiaofeng, are you just playing with me!"
