Chapter 171 The Dragon’s Roar
byChapter 171 The Dragon’s Roar
Except for Long Yu and Long Xin, none of them currently have the ability to fly. Although they have wings, they have not learned how to fly.
Long Yu is not very good at it either, they are still very young.
Shannan looked around and saw that there was no sound of running water around. He and Long Yu were far away from the river. The forest here was as deep as a dense net. Any weed was taller than an adult human. The leaves were thick and sharp, and the crown of the tree was even more dense.Towering into the sky.
There were thick moss and fallen leaves under my feet, and everything I saw was pitch black, without any light from the sky.
"Long Yu, can you stand up?" Shang Nan squatted next to Long Yu.
The dragon's wings flapped, and it whined. The moment its neck left the ground, it fell back heavily.
Shang Nan frowned as he watched, and became nervous at the same time. His heart was scratched by this feeling. He hurriedly said: "Forget it, you, you change back to human form, and I will carry you away."
The patrol team did not follow. They might really just want to test how far the dragon jade can grow outside.
Long Yu changed into a human form, and Shang Nan saw the deep scratches on his face and several deep scratches on his neck. The blood had solidified and turned black.
The scratches were caused by branches when it fell. The scratches were so deep that it looked like they were caused by those dragons.
It was hard to tell at first because when he was in dragon form, he was completely black and had armor plates, making it difficult to see.
"I'll carry you." Shang Nan grabbed Long Yu's wrist and pulled him up. He heard Long Yu grunt, "Where does it hurt you?" Shang Nan hurriedly turned around.
Long Yu put his hands on Shang Nan's shoulders, "The left leg is broken."
He spoke in an understatement, as if it was not his own leg that was broken, but Shang Nan almost shed tears.
Here, in this world, Shang Nan came for a mission, and the mission was the motivation for everything he did. He followed the system instructions to help Long Yu.
Longyu has no mission or system. It protects Shangnan in its own way.
Shang Nan was holding a stick picked up from the mountains in his hand. Long Yu was already taller than him, but he was growing faster. He was now almost a whole head taller, and his weight was no longer what it was at the beginning.
But no matter what, it is still within the range that Shannan can carry with his teeth.
The size of dragons and humans are not even close to each other.
Shang Nan looked at the ups and downs of the road ahead. It was difficult for him to walk. Every time he took a breath, he could hear his own heavy breathing in his ears.
The forest was so quiet that even the birdsong had disappeared. The previous birds were probably scared away by the dragons fighting in the sky. Now the forest was so quiet that even the sound of fallen leaves could be heard.
But the quieter it is, the more people feel inexplicably frightened.
At least, there were many small animals in the forests they passed through before, but here, in addition to trees, there were unbelievably thick and brutal vines and weeds.
Shang Nan held the stick with one hand and grabbed the branches along the road to steady his body. He liked walking downhill the most. He was not tired and could run down the slope.
I hate going uphill the most. The moss and fallen leaves on the ground are soft and slippery. After finally climbing three steps up, I have to slide back two steps. The progress is worrying.
This must be the territory of an evil dragon, everything seems so unusual.
It's not that far, Shannan thought, breathing heavily.
[14: You are more than 700 kilometers away from Wuyang Town and more than 200 kilometers away from your ship. It’s just that you didn’t notice Long Yu when he was flying. In addition, there was a fight and chase with the team, and Long Yu’s uncle was alsoHe ran forward a long distance.]
[14: Even if I can redeem a Dali card for you, how can you still walk two hundred kilometers?You're just a human, so you'd better find a place to stay. Long Yu will probably be fine in just a few days.]
He admired Nan Lei so much that stars appeared in his eyes, "Long Yu's uncle?"
[14: He is Long Yu’s father’s younger brother, but he didn’t crawl out of a nest of eggs. He was Grandma Long Yu’s sixth nest egg.]
"..."
There was a rumble of thunder in the sky, and Shang Nan raised his neck and took a look. Although the top of his head was covered with tree crowns like a cover, he still pretended to look professional for a few seconds, and finally discussed with Long Yu: "I'm walking too slowly, let's find a place to rest for a few days, and when you're almost healed, we'll meet up with Long Xin and my sister."
Long Yu looked at the sweat on Shannan's face and said, "Okay."
Shannan pestle started looking for a place to take shelter from the rain with a stick. He couldn't look for a low-lying place for fear of water accumulation in the rain. He couldn't look for a flat and open place for fear of being attacked by wild beasts.
In this regard, Long Yu has more experience than him.
He lay on Shan Nan's back, and when he spoke, his lips were directly pressed against Shan Nan's ear. Without even realizing it, he pointed the direction to Shan Nan.
The final stop was in a cave, but if you wanted to go up, you had to climb a rather steep slope. The slope was covered with huge stones, and each stone was like a small hill.
Shan Nan stood below and swallowed.
"I'll be there soon..." Shannan encouraged himself. His feelings for Long Yu were no longer just a mission object. They lived and died together and were brothers. He would definitely take Long Yu up there.
However, before he could finish his words, the weight on his back suddenly lightened, and a heavy landing sound came from behind him.
Shan Nan turned around and saw Long Yu, who had transformed back into dragon form.
Long Yu obviously hadn't recovered yet. It fell back a few steps and flapped its wings against the falling rocks. Shang Nan's eyes were blocked by the raised pebbles and fallen leaves. He could only see a black shadow coming towards him. Then, Long Yu's forelimbs gentlyThe ground held his waist - Shannan was taken away from the ground.
Completely different from the squad leader's grasp, Long Yu did not use the nails of her claws to dig, but used the soft pads in the middle of her claws to retract her nails.
But Long Yu was injured.
Its flight path was crooked, and its wings hit the branches of dense giant trees several times. During the short journey, I felt nervous admiring the south.
When they arrived at the entrance of the cave, Shannan and Long Yu fell in together. Long Yu groaned and hit the wall. The stone on top was shaken and a large piece fell off. It covered Shannan under its wings in advance..
Shang Nan listened to the crackling sound on the top of his head. He slowly opened his eyes that were closed because he was afraid. He looked at Long Yu in disbelief. Its neck was bent, and painful and rough breathing came from its throat.Because of the unbearable pain, my nails opened one by one and then closed one by one.
Even if it didn't say anything, Shannan could still feel how painful it was.
[14: The dragons are like this. Once accepted, they can give everything to each other. They don’t want anything in return, and they don’t think too much. For example, you humans often consider whether it’s worth it. This is not within their behavioral conditions and prompts them to give everything.Yes, only if you are qualified.]
Obviously, in Long Yu's heart, Shang Nan is qualified.
The evil dragon struggled to get up. It moved to the entrance of the cave, threw its body, straightened its neck, and let out a deafening roar toward the vast sky.
The previously silent mountain forest became turbulent and agitated due to the sudden roar of the dragon.
The evil dragon screamed several times in succession. After it stopped, it fell heavily to the ground and transformed into a dragon jade.
Shang Nan ran over quickly. He bent down and helped Long Yu up. He turned around and looked at the empty cave. He found that it made no difference where he lay.
It's better to lie inside, the rain won't drift in.
He put the unconscious Long Yu on the ground and carefully inspected the injuries on the opponent's body. It was probably due to the severe fall from the sky before, plus the broken leg, several falls and beatings, and even fighting with the group of dragons.After a fight, people forgot that Long Yu was actually just an underage dragon.
"I'll go find some branches to give you a cushion and some food." Shannan looked around and ran away with confidence.
"Remember to remind me if there is something wrong." Shannan walked around to the back of the cave. The cave was halfway up the mountain, with denser forests behind it.
[14: Received.]
It is much easier to move alone. Shannan gathered a bunch of leaves very close to the cave. He was originally thinking about how to transport them back, but when he felt that the leaves were all wet, he immediately gave up the idea of using them.
He dragged a stick around in the forest. The grass was not good and the blades were flat and sharp, so it was completely impossible to use it.
In the end, he could only use branches according to his previous idea.The branches have many branches, and the green and thick leaves are stacked layer by layer. It should be a good bed material for animals.
It's just that Shannan didn't have tools this time, so he could only jump up to reach the branch, and then pull it down until it was strong enough for him to break it. He grinned and broke it with his hands and feet.
Even small saplings have to be broken off like this.
But Shang Nan also covets the leaves that are stacked more lushly, and the sleep will be softer.
With the help of 14's strength, he jumped up and grabbed the tip of the branch with his fingers, pulling it to the ground, "It's just... holy shit!"
It only took a moment to fly out. The branch rebounded under pressure, and Shannan was pulled out directly. The world was spinning before his eyes, and he fell to the ground. Gululu rolled down the slope.
It didn't stop until it rolled to a flat place where the slope disappeared. It didn't hit any messy things on the way down. There weren't as many rocks on the back of the hillside as there were on the front, and it was very flat.
Shan Nan got up and shook his head. Fallen leaves fluttered from his hair. He shook his head and looked around while picking up his hair.
As soon as I raised my eyes, I saw the rabbit.
"What a big rabbit!"
[14: The animals in the Dragon Clan’s territory seem to be larger than those outside.]
There is a rabbit hole at the bottom of the slope. It is a dark hole with a big rabbit, and the hole is also big, but there is only one rabbit in the hole. It is squatting inside, holding a handful of grass blades and gnawing on it, completely ignoring the alien outside.Take it seriously.
[14: This rabbit is only three months old.]
The white rabbit had unusually big ears. It was lying down and standing on one side. It chewed the grass in its mouth very quickly, and its mouth almost turned upside down.
Shan Nan originally reached in to catch it and feed it to Long Yu, but he couldn't do it. He would think of the rabbit he raised, with ears longer than this, dragging it on the ground. Qi Ling hated it and would follow it.Chasing, biting, and trampling.
"What a coincidence. Goodbye." Shannan stepped aside and slowly crawled to the previous place.
This forest is different from the previous forest. The leaves and grass are all green and black, so from a glance, it is all dark, and the gaps formed look like the gaping mouths of wild beasts.
He didn't even see any edible wild fruit.
After climbing up the slope, Shannan no longer tried to pull the thick branches over his own strength. He broke off a lot of thin branches and dragged them towards the cave.
He bent over and panted, only to hear a sharp scream, and a bloody thing fell from the sky and landed directly in front of Shannan.
At that moment, Shan Nan admitted that he was so frightened that he almost called his mother. When he came to his senses, he saw the rabbit that had fallen into the pile of leaves.
He thought it was the rabbit just down the hillside. The moment he pulled the body out and took the ears into his hands, Shannan knew it wasn't the rabbit. This rabbit was at least three times the size of the rabbit just now.
Shang Nan looked at the red eyes of the rabbit corpse, thought for a while, and then raised his head.
The little rabbit who had just been chewing grass in the rabbit hole was holding the trunk of a tree with his hands. He saw that he was discovered, with his mouth split open and full of blood.
He wanted to go home, right away.
But it was obvious that the little rabbit was giving him food, and it was his own kind.
Shang Nan whispered thank you, holding the rabbit ears in one hand and dragging the branches with the other, moving step by step towards the cave.
Long Yu hadn't woken up yet, and Shannan was busy arranging the branches and trying to make the temporary bed as flat as possible. Although the branches would occasionally become tilted, it would be fine if he pressed a little more.
The most troublesome thing is this rabbit. Shang Nan is also hungry, but he doesn't eat raw meat.
Forget it, give it all to Long Yu.
He is not hungry.
[14: It’s best to take care of the injury on your waist.]
What injury??
14 If I don’t mention it, I have almost forgotten about admiring the south.
He lifted up his clothes, and there were six unusually symmetrical wounds on both sides of his abdomen, three on the left and three on the right. They were caused by Captain Long. The scratches were so deep that the blood stopped flowing along the wounds. There was a whole patch of blood.scab.
Shang Nan carefully peeled off all the bloody scabs without touching the wound. "I don't have the tools to disinfect it and apply medicine to it now. Let it tolerate it a little longer."
He put down his clothes and dragged Long Yu to the mat made of branches. Seeing that Long Yu was sleeping soundly, Shan Nan sat at the entrance of the cave and looked down.
The scenery is nice.
The only bad thing is that it's going to rain.
Shang Nan glanced at the top of his head. A huge stone stretched out like an eaves, which should be able to block a lot of rain.
Layer after layer of dark clouds came from the distance, and finally they all piled up over the mountain forest.
From a distance, Shang Nan saw the rain curtain sweeping all the way.
Finally, with a crash, it arrived in front of us.
The only sound left in his ears was the sound of pouring rain. Shannan was stunned for a while, then moved back into the cave, found a place on the mat, and curled up to sleep.
I just hope Long Yu gets better soon.
In the middle of the night, the rain was still pouring down. Long Yu woke up. He touched the thick leaves under him with his palms and slowly sat up with his body supported.
Shang Nan was sleeping next to him, probably because of the cold, he huddled up into a small ball.
The clothes he was wearing were very thin, and the hem of his clothes was full of blood. It had turned black and red at the moment. Half of his waist was exposed, it was bloody, and there was a group of ants crawling on it.
Long Yu stretched out his hand, and the ants crawled away as if they were scared crazy. He then pulled down the hem of Shang Nan's clothes and covered his waist.
Shang Nan is even thinner than when he was in town.Long Yu thought in hindsight.
He sat against the wall and looked at the rain curtain outside. He was not in a very high mood, but he didn't know why he was not in a high mood.
He should be happy when he meets his kin for the first time. Being recognized by his relatives is also something to be happy about. When they arrive home, he should be even more happy about it.
But he had deep doubts in his heart. He wondered why he would kill his own kind to reward Nan.
He quickly gave his answer to this question - Shangnan was a very important human being to him.
As for why, he didn't know.
Long Yu never traces the reason. The result has already happened, and the reason has lost its meaning. How to treat the result is the top priority.
His red pupils seemed to have been soaked by the rain outside, and they no longer had any aggression at all.
He lowered his head, and his lower jaw was occasionally illuminated for a moment by the lightning outside, turning it pale. He kept looking at Shan Nan.
They had seen each other in the most embarrassing state, and had suffered the same suffering caused by the same person. They became each other's only support in the heavy rain.
Even though it is not clear what kind of relationship this should be defined as, in Long Yu's heart, appreciating the south is the most important thing.
He looked at the south for a while, and then looked outside the cave. At a very distant place behind the rain curtain, there was a sunny sky with bright white sunlight, hiding behind the rain curtain.
It should clear up tomorrow.
Long Yu will go home, but Long Yu will not leave Shang Nan behind.
Shang Nan slept with pain in his waist and back. Due to injuries to his waist and abdomen, his waist was particularly sore and his back was in pain.
He looked at the bright cave and listened to the chirping of birds outside. He sat up with a grin on his face. He immediately saw the fire burning at the entrance of the cave and the rabbit being roasted on the fire. The skin of the rabbit was thrown aside.The stick with the rabbit on it was held in Long Yu's hand.
"No," Shang Nan was a little confused. He didn't know what to ask first. Where did you get the fire? Where did you recover? Or where did the firewood come from? He choseThe second question is, "Long Yu, how do you feel now?"
Long Yu pointed to his leg, "It still hurts a little, but it's much better than yesterday."
Is this connected?
Shang Nan sat blankly, while Long Yu twirled the stick in his hand and said calmly: "I burned some of the branches you dragged in yesterday and roasted this rabbit."
"Where did you catch the rabbit? The rabbits here are very ferocious." Long Yu asked again.
Shang Nan felt heartbroken when he saw that a large piece of the leaf mat he had spread was missing. He moved to the opposite side of Long Yu and sat cross-legged, "Where did you get the fire?"
Long Yu: "I sprayed it out myself."
"..."
"You can breathe fire?" Shan Nan said in disbelief.
"Yeah, but it can't spit out much flames yet." Long Yu asked again, "Rabbit."
If it was a rabbit caught by Shang Nan himself, the rabbit's injury would not be a fatal injury. What's more, it would be impossible for Shang Nan to catch the rabbit here by himself.
"This rabbit was given to me by a rabbit." Shannan said very calmly.
Long Yu raised his eyes. Under the light of the pale golden sunlight that had just come on in the morning, his eyes became radiant and looked much gentler than usual.
He didn't say anything. After a while, he said, "Then it should like you."
"Huh?" Shang Nan looked at the roasted rabbit eagerly without thinking much.
"All the creatures in our territory have more or less spiritual energy. They will catch you food, and they should have a good impression of you." Long Yu said calmly.
"We met by chance and became acquainted with each other," Shannan said, holding her cheek, "Is it ready to bake?"
Long Yu took the rabbit away, held it up to him and sniffed, "Okay."
Before Shang Nan said which part he wanted to eat, he pulled off the rabbit's legs and threw it into Shang Nan's arms.
"It's burned to death!" Shonan was so burned that he stepped back repeatedly, his butt rubbing against the ground, fearing that the rabbit's legs would be stained with dust, he reached out and picked it up again and blew on it.
Long Yu caught a glimpse of the disgust on Shan Nan's face, pursed her lips, and pulled off the other rabbit's leg.
This time he handed it over.
"I'll just eat this. I'll give you the rest. You have to eat more." The rabbits here are very big. It's enough for Shannan to eat two rabbit legs. But it's Long Yu. He is evil after all.A dragon has a huge appetite, and this little food is not enough for him.
Although there was no salt and no other condiments, Shannan was still extremely satisfied and happy with the meal. He had been hungry all day yesterday and last night, his stomach was already empty and he felt extremely uncomfortable. Now he was just chewing on tree bark.He can also take a few bites.
Long Yu was afraid of being burned, so he left the roasted rabbit for a while before eating it. He could chew the meat and bones easily without spitting out the bones.
Inexplicably, Shang Nan remembered that yesterday in the sky, Long Yu swooped down from above and instantly tore apart the appearance of its kind.
Its expression when it took action was not ferocious and twisted, but instead unusually cold and calm.
The scales all over its body were splashed with blood, and it flew in the rain of blood, indifferent.
Such a delicate and handsome young man was so sure and ruthless in his attack. Shan Nan gnawed on the rabbit leg and thought, this means that in Long Yu's heart, her relationship with him is still the best.
"Long Yu, thank you for your willingness to save me yesterday." Shannan said suddenly.
Long Yu chewed the rabbit's head and flirted with Shannan, "You're welcome. We are friends. If I don't save you, they will kill you."
In the territory of the Dragon Clan, human intrusion is no different than seeking death.
What's more, just last year, those humans invaded their territory and captured their offspring.
"You said before..." Shannan tilted his head, "You would kill me. Do you still want to kill me now?"
"I don't want to." Long Yu answered neatly, without hesitation or thinking, because this was not a question that required thinking to answer.
"I won't kill you, I will kill those who want to kill you," Long Yu paused and said softly, "and my kind."
Shan Nan was stunned. He kept looking at Long Yu's scarlet eyes and couldn't find the reason why Long Yu was so kind to him.
[14: The reason why the dragon clan members are so united is not because of their blood relationship, but because they have the same things that need to be protected, such as their home. Ninety-nine percent of the evil dragons are for this reason.They are actually very indifferent and slow emotionally.]
[14: They live together, and in order to maintain a peaceful and peaceful life, they will definitely stand on the same side to resist foreigners.]
[14: But what if one of the dragons wants to protect one more thing?For example, if it materializes into a human being, this will not conflict with protecting its homeland, because these two things will be the things it wants to protect, and any creature that wants to destroy these two things will be regarded as its enemy.]
"Long Yu, you're already home." Shannan pointed to the distance, where several dragons were flying low in the sky. They were so far apart that they looked like wild geese or other huge birds.
They are few in number, flying low through the mist.
"I know." Long Yu replied.
He didn't mention letting Shang Nan leave.
