    Chapter 163 The Roar of the Dragon

    Shang Nan took the gourd and took a step back, then fell to the floor.

    And Xiao Hei has already begun to eat. It is stronger than Xiao Xue, injured more than Xiao Xue, and its appetite is obviously larger than Xiao Xue's. Scales cover every inch of its body, except for its abdomen, only some parts of its back and neck.The nail plates have fallen off, revealing the white flesh underneath.

    There were deep scratches on the floor. Shang Nan followed the scratches and saw their claws, which were like sharp hooks that could easily hook people up around the waist - but... Xiaoxue's claws were pretty good.It was intact, and Xiao Hei's claws were invisible. When he looked closely, he found that they had all been chopped off close to the flesh.

    The claws can grow back, but it may be difficult in such a harsh living environment.

    Moreover, Shonan glanced at the dirty long table next to him. Shanxidong wanted to collect blood. It was impossible for him to make Xiaohei's claws grow back. He might grow them a little longer or chop them into pieces.

    Xiao Hei finished eating, but Shang Nan didn't see the third one.

    He got up from the ground and walked around the house before he saw the third one in the corner. It looked only as big as an ordinary large wolfdog, and even its wings were very small.

    When it saw someone coming, it immediately shrank into a ball and looked at the person with wet red eyes.

    Although they all have the same red eyes, they give Shangnan a completely different feeling. How great would it be if the target of the mission is the one in front of me, Shangnan thought.

    However, what Ling Shannan is still very curious about is why this little one is not kept together with Hei Xiaoxue?Obviously, the one whose blood was drawn must be Xiao Hei. Xiao Xiao is too thin. No matter where he looks, he looks like a newborn baby. Xiao Xue is also thin. The only one suitable for blood drawing is Xiao Hei.It's the most vicious one.

    "Let's eat." Shang Nan squatted down. As soon as he squatted down, Xiao Xiao was on top. Afraid of being hurt, Shang Nan stood up again and poured all the food in the bucket into the small trough.

    The little one must be very young. As soon as it saw the food, it ran towards Shannan. Its two little wings flapped awkwardly a few times, stumbled, and stopped on the ground with its face.

    Shang Nan slowly raised his hand and carefully placed his palm on the head of the pitifully small dragon in front of him.

    "Clang!"

    "Roar!"

    The moment he touched the opponent, Xiaoxiao jumped up as if he had been shocked by electricity. His claws knocked over the food trough, and the smelly food was sprinkled all over Shannan's head and body. The two in the cage behind him also roared behind the cage.

    The dragon's roar was even more powerful than the thunder he usually heard, and it reached Shang Nan's back in an instant. Shang Nan even felt a gust of wind blowing from the back of his head. With the unique aggressiveness of a wild beast, his whole body was full of energy.Goosebumps appeared instantly, and the hair on my hair stood up uncontrollably.

    Shang Nan sat on the ground and looked back at the two dragons imprisoned in the cage behind him. They were completely different from the docility they had shown before. Xiao Hei hit the cage with his head crazily, and the entire iron fence shook violently.It stood up, and the roar in its throat was full of threats. It stared directly at Shan Nan, looking like it wanted to bite Shan Nan to death.

    "I just want to touch its head." Shang Nan got up from the ground in embarrassment. He silently swept the floor clean. As soon as it was cleaned, he heard someone coming up from the corridor.

    It’s autumn appreciation.

    Shangqiu's braid fell on her left shoulder. She nervously twisted Shangnan around twice, "Are you okay? Why does it take so long to feed you? Why do you get food all over your hair?"

    She ignored the roars of several dragons, grabbed Shang Nan with one hand and carried the bucket with the other, and hurried downstairs.

    A long time after going downstairs, Shang Nandu could still hear the roaring sounds of those dragons, angry and sad.

    They were captured by the townspeople from a far away place because they heard that drinking dragon blood would make you as strong as an ox and eating dragon meat would prolong your life. However, the dragon race itself is mysterious, powerful and dangerous.

    As a result, the townspeople gathered hundreds of people, funded by the town's wealthy people, and embarked on the road to capture the dragon.

    They carried guns and cannons, as well as the most commonly used muskets for hunting, and traveled across mountains and rivers for nearly a year before finally hunting a group of young dragons back from their territory.

    The harvest was not very rich. They lost two-thirds of their people, but the number of dragons they brought back was not large. It was not enough to share. In the end, only the few who contributed the most in the hunting operation got the share.Waiting dragon.

    "Don't every household raise a dragon?" Shang Nan sat under the lamp, holding in his hand a little book of small figures that Shang Qiu had given him. It was so tattered that you couldn't tell what the painting was about.

    [14: There are only ten dragons in the whole town. The others are not orthodox. They are animals with similar appearance that the townspeople look for after imitating dragons.]

    "Why not hunt new dragons?"

    [14: The cost is too high, the reward is too little, and they can hunt only because they have the upper hand. Dragons are naturally violent and cruel, how can they give humans a second chance?]

    [14: The dragons they caught were all very young, only more than three months old, and they were not yet weaned...]

    [14: Xiaoxue is a female dragon, three years old, and Xiaohei is a male dragon, two years old. In human years, they are about the same age as you.]

    [14: By the way, the blackening value is 0.]

    "0?" Shonan raised his head, but then he was very curious, "Since there is no blackening value, why did I come to this world?"

    [14: Because the blackening value is showing signs of rising, very obvious signs of rising.]

    But Shannan didn't know what to do.

    Xiao Hei is not a human being, and he cannot communicate with the dragon. This is one, and the other is that once the iron fence is lost between him and the dragon, the dragon will tear him apart without hesitation.

    He couldn't even get close.

    I can only watch the blackening value appear.

    Shang Nan's room was next to Shang Qiu's. They lived on the third floor. The house was old and even the wood smelled of decay.

    The sky outside was gray and the window was missing a small piece of glass, but it was covered with the same area of newspaper.

    There was a heavy gasping sound in the room, breathing very slowly.

    Shannan had difficulty falling asleep while lying on the thin and hard bed. When he heard this sound, he became even more unable to sleep.

    He sat up and walked around the room until he looked down at the gap between the wooden boards and suddenly realized that the cage holding the dragon was under his room.

    It's a pity that there are no lights downstairs, and the lamp in Shangnan's room is also nailed to the wall, so he can't carry it around, otherwise he would like to take a look

    He found a place closest to Xiao Hei and the others, took the bedding to the floor, spread it briefly and then lay down.

    Shannan looked at the leaden sky outside and the small room covered with spider webs, and thought, starting from tomorrow, everything will slowly get better.

    "boom!"

    "Bang bang!"

    "Roar!"

    The continuous sounds of smashing, collisions and the roar of animals woke up Shang Nan from his sleep. Shang Nan opened his eyes, came back to his senses, and found that the sound was coming from downstairs.

    He didn't even have time to put on his shoes, so he ran to the window and lay down to look down.

    Didn't see anything...

    But soon, Shangqiu's voice appeared outside the room, "Shangnan, come out and help!"

    "Here we come!" Shannan looked around and finally found an oversized vest and an oversized army green old man's shirt in the cabinet, put them on, and hurried out in a pair of slippers.

    Shangqiu is still dressed in the same outfit as yesterday. She is very thin, but also very energetic.

    "What are you wearing?" Shangqiu walked in front, disgusted with Shangnan.

    "I didn't find any other clothes." Shan Nan whispered.

    Shangqiu didn't dislike him anymore, but took him downstairs, and then turned the corner directly to the place where the dragon was kept in captivity on the second floor yesterday.

    Shang Xidong stood in front of the long black dirty table like a dark mountain. From time to time there was a harsh sound of blades rubbing against each other in the air. Those were the two blades in Shang Xidong's hand.A long and narrow machete.

    His back was to the door, the meat on his neck was piled in three layers, his undershirt was covered with circles of yellow sweat stains, and his two stocky legs stood on the floor like pillars. He exuded the aura of a butcher.

    When Shang Xidong saw the two helpers arriving, he dropped his knife, passed by Shang Nan and Shang Qiu, and walked towards the smallest Xiaoxiao.

    As expected, Xiao Hei and Xiao Xue roared like crazy, almost capable of breaking human eardrums.

    "What are you doing standing still? Hold it down for me!" Shanxi Dong shouted at the two siblings who were standing at the door.

    The two of them shook together. Shangqiu ran over first, while Shangnan couldn't move his legs and moved over with great difficulty.

    Xiaoxiao was pinned on the table, belly facing up. Different from the hard black armor on its back, the dragon's belly was soft gray-white, with a thin layer of down. It was breathing heavily, hanging its neck, red.His eyes were filled with a cry for help.

    Shang Xidong waved his hand and threw everything on the table to the ground. Shang Nan looked at his feet and saw a very clean white plastic bucket, with its little head placed closest to him.

    "Here, hold its head down." Shang Xidong picked up the knife next to him.

    The eyes of the two dragons next to him were already filled with murderous intent, and they banged the cage loudly.

    They are probably from the same family, maybe brothers and sisters, the youngest is the younger brother, Shannan thought almost desperately, he didn't know how to help them.

    Shan Nan's helplessness was stared at by Shan Xidong's swollen and lifeless eyes, and he laughed. The smell of alcohol fermented in his mouth all night, and the taste was unbearably nauseating.

    "Children love to be very kind to these little animals. Keeping them is a waste of food. But if you kill them, you can get dozens of kilograms of meat. The bones are used to make soup. Hiss - that's delicious," said ShanxidongI have been craving for it for a long time, but I have been reluctant to kill it. After all, it took a lot of effort to hunt it back. "I was reluctant to let it go at first, and planned to keep it for a while. After all, only with this small one, the big one would be willing to give in."I drew blood, but I thought about it last night. If there wasn't this little one, wouldn't there be another one? It's the same thing." In this way, the little one has completely lost its effect.

    Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxue, and Xiaohei were the names given to them by Shangnan and Shangqiu, because Shangnan and Shangqiu would not care about Xidong after they came back from hunting. Shangnan and Shangqiu had always been feeding the three dragons.

    Shang Nan looked at Shang Qiu at a loss. Shang Qiu lowered her head, her braid falling on one shoulder. Half of her face expression could not be seen clearly under the light and shadow. Her sallow face was very tight, and her hands pressed hard on her face.On the little paws.

    "It... is too thin and has no meat. It can be raised again." Shan Nan rubbed the corner of his clothes and whispered to Shan Xidong.

    Shang Xidong laughed, and the large piece of meat in his belly trembled, "It's useless to raise it, just wait for those few kilograms of meat? Where can I get the money to raise such a thing?"

    Shangqiu looked up at Shangnan and said impatiently: "Hold it."

    This dragon is not yet weaned.

    Shang Nan's mind was in a mess, and his nerves and blood vessels were messed up by Shang Xidong's oozing smile, Shang Qiu's urging, and the roars of other dragons.

    He lowered his head and met the little eyes. The sounds coming out of its mouth were milky, babbling.

    The two little wings on its back flapped against the table.

    "Snapped!"

    Shang Xidong slapped Shang Nan on the back of the head like last night. When Shang Nan didn't move, he slapped Shang Nan on the back of the head twice more. "What are you thinking about when I ask you to hold it down? It's not as useful as a girl."!”

    No matter what, he must survive first, Shan Nan thought. He gritted his teeth, rolled up his sleeves, and planned to hold down the little head.

    But he deliberately put his hand into the tiny mouth.

    Sure enough, when the machete was raised, it bit Shan Shang Nan's hand with a small bite. A burst of pain came, and Shang Nan's tiger's mouth was directly bitten through, and blood poured out.

    Shangqiu screamed, and as soon as his hand loosened, Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to turn over the table and flop around to find an exit in the room.

    It had never taken off, and it didn't even know how to use its wings. Its two hind paws were clawing at the floor like crazy. From time to time, it would trip over its own tail or hit the wall head first.

    After it breaks out of its shell, it should be led by its parents or older siblings to teach it how to use its wings to take off and how to hunt, but it doesn't know how to do these things. Its world is this small attic, and there are people and it.Brothers and sisters who are also locked in a cage.

    Shang Xidong didn't rush to catch it. Instead, he spat, cursed trash, and walked towards Xiaoxiao who wanted to escape with a knife.

    "Abba!" Shang Nan Chong shouted from Shang Xi Dong's back.

    Shang Xidong chased around the house several times, but Xiaoxiao never found the exit. Even though it was out of human control and the window was open, it was too small and didn't know anything.

    The thick palm directly grasped the little tail, and Xiaoxiao let out a shrill scream. It weighed 180 kilograms, but Shanxidong easily caught it in his hand.

    This time, Shang Xidong did not let Shang Nan and Shang Qiu help. He pinched the little neck with one hand and raised and lowered the knife. The blade was not even stained with blood.

    The black head, with its eyes still wide open, fell from the neck, fell to the floor, and slowly rolled to Shang Nan's feet.

    It looked at him and he looked at it.

    The smell of blood filled the room instantly, and after a few bounces of the little body, there was no more movement.

    Shang Xidong let the blood in the veins in his neck flow into the plastic bucket, and he frowned. The blood flowed from large to small, and finally dripped down drop by drop. The total amount was less than half a bucket, let alone a bucket.

    His mood suddenly became bad, and he threw the lifeless body in the direction of Shang Nan with disgust, "Go and cut it open, and hang the meat to dry."

    Shan Nan stood still, his head lowered, his eyes sore.

    [14: Blackening value 50.]

    Shang Nan stared blankly at Xiao Hei who was locked in the cage. He was breathing heavily, his eyes were blood red, and a sound like a blower came from deep in his throat. His eyes were full of cold murderous intent, but it was different from yesterday.Just the same, yesterday it was just a beast, today it is more than a beast.

    Today, it already has something exactly like a human being. It has become a monster. As long as it wants to, it can quickly kill everyone it wants to kill.

    Shang Nan couldn't help but take a step back.

    Shangqiu wiped her face, silently took the rag and wiped all the blood on the ground. When she wiped the blood next to the little tail, she looked back at Xiaoxue and Xiaohei, "Hey, don't be angry.Maybe it will be your turn tomorrow.”

    Xiaoxue slammed the cage hard, and Shangqiu sneered, "Don't throw fire at us, we are no better than you."

    "Sister, can we let them go secretly?" Shannan squatted down. His eyes were sore and he could only rub them hard a few times. He had a natural compassion for animals, although he didn't know why he was like this.

    Shangqiu did not scold him for being stupid this time, but said seriously: "I told you before, you can let go, but look at the way they look, let alone flying, they can't run very far. If they are caught by AbbaIf we find out, Abba will beat us to death.”

    "What's more," Shangqiu's calm face showed a trace of fear, "What if we open the cage and they kill us directly? They are wild animals, Shangnan, you can't guarantee that they will repay kindness like humans, youJudging from the look in their eyes, if we open the cage and let them out, they will definitely bite us like crazy."

    Shan Nan lowered his eyes, feeling extremely powerless.

    Shangqiu moved his little body so that he could continue to wipe the floor. While moving, Shangnan accidentally discovered a grass vine that had been worn to the point of being almost invisible on the wrist of the little front paw, a bracelet-like one.thing.

    He thought for a while, and took it off while Shangqiu wasn't paying attention.

    Shang Nan looked at the blood-stained grass ring in his hand, which had been dyed red. His heart tightened and he almost stopped holding it.

    After a while, Shang Nan looked behind Shang Qiu and saw the target of the task. He lifted the grass ring, shook it, and mouthed, "I'll give it to you later."

    Shang Nan thought Xiao Hei couldn't understand it, but after thinking about it, he must be able to understand it now.

    Sure enough, the black dragon's red eyes moved from Shang Nan's face to the bracelet that was lifted into the air. Its eyes changed from violent and angry to extremely sad and desperate.

    It gently hit the cage with its head as a reply to Shang Nan.
