Whispers of the Dragon

Chapter 10

The slightly hot spring water soothes the aches and pains of the whole body very well.

Just so quietly pouring water on his body time and time again, Xue Xian couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

It was so comfortable, the soreness on his body and the bruises on his waist and abdomen were all relieved very well. If it wasn't for the danger and conditions that didn't allow it, he really wanted to just walk into the pool and wash it happily.

There are also hot springs in the sanctuary.

Xuexian liked to take baths since he was a child. When he was a child, Mier, who served him in the bath, was suddenly called away by other maids to deal with matters. When she came back, Xuexian had already soaked in the bathtub for too long and passed out.

Several maids carried Xue Xian out together, some of them wiped the water, some of them pinched some of them, it made everyone jump like hell, and later all the maids were punished.

Xuexian couldn't help but think of the temple again, and his eyes became hot.

But God's will tricks people, the more he wants to go back, the farther away he is.

Suddenly there was a sound behind him, Xuexian turned his head and saw that the dragon woke up at some point, and was looking at him non-stop with those shining golden pupils.

"what!"

Xuexian was naked and felt very insecure, panicked, and jumped into the water indiscriminately.

There was a sound of "哗啦", and water splashed everywhere.

And that young dragon, using both wings and feet, has already crawled over like lightning: "Woo..."

A deep roar echoed in the cave.

Xuexian's scalp was numb, thinking that it was finally going to eat him, and subconsciously dived into the bottom of the pool.

The hot spring was filled with mist, and the tattoo on his white skin was soaked in hot water, and gradually shimmered.

The tattoo started from the right side of the neck, all the way down, and spread to the chest, back, arms and even the waist and abdomen. As long as you take a closer look, you can find that it is actually a totem composed of strange symbols and numbers.

Those are the complex coordinates of the earth in the universe, and as the Son of God, he engraved them all into his bones and blood.

Layers of shimmer sway underwater with floating limbs.

When diving in the hot spring, Xuexian did stupid things, and finally couldn't hold back anymore, and didn't care whether the dragon would be so excited to eat human flesh, and quickly emerged from the water in a dizzy state, breathing heavily thin oxygen.

"Hoo, hoo-"

The baby dragon had no interest in eating him.

It just lay on the edge of the pool to watch him, and when it saw him coming out, it tentatively sniffed the hot spring water with its nose: "Gu?"

Xue Xian breathed a sigh of relief just now, and immediately alerted: "What are you doing?"

Wouldn't it also want to come down for a dip?

Xuexian is not well.

"Don't come down!" Xuexian, sweating hotly, raised his head in the water and shouted to the dragon, "Don't come down!"

Dragons are naturally hot.

As soon as the young dragon put its head into the water, it raised its head in extreme discomfort, sprayed hot air from its nose, then vigorously swung the water, and flapped its wings anxiously.Dragons never bathe in hot springs, they don't like hot water, and they don't like the pungent smell of sulfur.

That is to say, underage dragons will learn from humans to do this.

The childish dragon took a few steps back, as if frightened, and let out a low growl of dissatisfaction after throwing the water.

Xuexian opened his eyes, and after a while, couldn't help laughing: "Pfft."

The young man's cheeks were pale and rosy, his whole body was steaming with dampness, and his black eyes were bright when he smiled.

Seeing that he smiled, Long bared his fangs angrily at him, showing a ferocious expression.

It was such a big beast, Xuexian couldn't figure out its mind at all, seeing it like this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

He quickly dived into the water again, and after swimming a few meters away, he reappeared to exhale, watching the huge creature vigilantly.

The atmosphere is tense.

Fortunately, the dragon just became angry from embarrassment.

It killed Xuexian fiercely, and seeing that he stopped smiling, it put away its fangs, lay down on the side of the pool again, and watched him quietly with those huge golden pupils.

The hot spring water is hot, but it is still clear, and everything can be seen clearly.

Being served and brought up since childhood, Xuexian never felt ashamed of being naked, but even if this is a dragon, his eyes are too presumptuous.He just wanted to go ashore quickly, get dressed, and hide in a rock or something.

But to his surprise, Long looked at him for a while, and then started to clean himself up too!

The dragon has no front claws, and its forelimbs are wide and large wings, with sharp bony spurs growing on the wingtips.

Its newly grown left wing was still a little stiff, and it was lying on its right side, its neck bent at an inconceivable angle, and it used its tongue to lick all the scales on its body within its reach.It was probably because the dragon had been in the water several times when hunting fish, the dragon's silver scales had already been washed clean by the water, and it was brighter than when Xue Xian first saw it, so it didn't spend much effort on the scales.

But all of a sudden, there was a "swish", like a sharp sound when pieces of metal rubbed against each other, Xue Xian saw that all the scales of the young dragon stood up from the back!

At this time, the young dragon looks like it is wearing full armor. You can imagine how painful it will be for the prey to be scratched by these scales during the battle!

Immediately afterwards, the young dragon stretched out its hind paws, tilted half of its body, and began to tickle itself with its sharp claws.

The wise and majestic aura was immediately reduced by half, and its movements looked like a lazy cat, or some kind of dog was more appropriate.

Xue Xian: "..."

Sensing Xue Xian's gaze, the young dragon quickly retracted its scales, then crawled over, facing Xue Xian with its back, and let out a terrifying "woo woo" sound from its throat again.

Xue Xian saw that there was a spot of tender pink flesh on the dragon's back, which stood out from the dense armor.Taking a closer look, it turned out that it was the wound pierced by the steel pillar before, and it was almost healed, but the newly grown scales were not hard enough and were transparent.

The new meat is itchy, and the dragon's hind paws can't scratch it at that position. Seeing what it means, it wants Xuexian to scratch it.

It's really rude.

"Woo..." The young dragon began to urge, puffing out hot air.

As soon as it moved, the stones beside the hot spring pool loosened, and the stones fell into the pool.

Fearing that it would crush the edge of the pool, Xue Xian hurriedly crawled out of the pool and put on his underwear in twos and twos, but he didn't intend to tickle the dragon, he was still angry.

The young dragon raised its head: "Gu?"

"You can dawdle by yourself." Xue Xian said with her back turned to it, lowered her head, "I won't help you anymore."

As if he didn't understand, the young dragon moved his body again, and changed the direction to face Xuexian with the tender meat on his back.

It lay down for a while, until it was sure that the human would really ignore it, then got up, shook its body as if nothing had happened, and put every scale back to its original position.

Xuexian stayed in the cave for a while, washed his robe and put it on the cave wall to dry.

When he had almost rested and his mental and physical strength had recovered a lot, he was ready to find a chance to leave.

During this period, the young dragon caught fish twice and came back.

One time was the fish that Xue Xian had eaten last time, and the other time was a new fish.

The new fish didn't taste very good, and Xuexian had other worries, so he didn't eat much.

The young dragon didn't know he was planning to leave.

It seems to have regarded this temporarily found cave as a new lair. Besides hunting, it just sleeps in the cave with Xue Xian. Anyway, it has no other place to go.

Xuexian didn't know what this young dragon wanted to do. It was far from the cold and cold image when we first saw it. Sometimes it was fierce and sometimes docile. Even if it was a young dragon, Xuexian was still unpredictable, and he didn't dare to take it lightly. .

Most of the time, Xuexian would stay away from it—once he tried to walk towards the entrance of the cave, but the young dragon came back fiercely with its teeth bared.

Does it regard itself as a playmate?Or as a pet?

Xue Xian tried to think about the habits of dragons he saw from the materials.

When the young dragon went hunting again, Xuexian seized the opportunity to shake off the dragon and try to find a way back.

Xuexian rewrapped his shoeless foot with a belt, put on the boot on the other foot, and put on his outer robe.

"Don't lose it again," he said to the remaining boot on his right foot. "I don't have a second belt."

After tidying up quickly, Xuexian dragged out half of the fish he had hidden and a sharp stone he had hidden from behind the rock, and stuffed them into the robe together.

The snow had stopped outside the cave, but the cold wind was howling.

When walking out of the cave, the huge temperature difference inside and outside the cave made Xue Xian almost want to turn around and go back into the cave immediately.

The glare of the light made Xuexian unable to open his eyes, and when he gradually got used to it, he could see the current geographical environment clearly.

They were no longer in the empty snow field before.

There are undulating snow hills near here, and some cold-resistant plants are growing everywhere. The only ones that can be recognized are pine trees, fir trees, etc., and some are native plants of Infinity Star. Since the beginning of life on this planet, they have been It has grown into a tree so thick that several people cannot hold it together.

In the distance are stretches of towering snow-capped mountains. The cave where they are located is more like a depression, surrounded by snow-capped peaks.Although the snow in the depression is thick, but because there are hot springs nearby, there are also flowing streams, and misty mist lingers in the air, just like a fairyland.

The baby dragon didn't seem to be around.

Xuexian saw some traces on the snow not far from the cave, which were left by Long Feifei when he left.

He chose the opposite direction from that trace.

It was getting colder and colder as we walked, and the outer robe of the holy attire was not enough to resist the cold here, and the belt on the feet was quickly wet from the snow, and the left foot was frozen as stiff as ice.

Xuexian tried his best to shrink himself into the robe, walked on the snow hill, and entered the forest.

After walking through two or three snow hills in a row, snow scum formed on Xuexian's hair and eyelashes. He stopped and looked back, and he could vaguely see the location of the cave.

Going forward, the fish in my arms also froze into ice cubes.

There are no other dragons around here, let alone other animals. I don't know if it's because the young dragons live here temporarily, and those animals are hiding.

Xuexian kept looking around, trying to find traces of human beings, equipment, parts, even garbage, anything.

But this place is different from the rainforest. It is far away from the coastline. People sent to the dragon's territory may not be able to reach it at all. Even if there are any clues, heavy snow has already covered everything.

Xue Xian shrank, walked down the snow hill with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and came to an open space.

The snow here is very thick, and there is a gap in the center of the snow, and the underground glacier is faintly visible.As the season warms up, some huge ice cubes are melting, scattered in the gaps, and illuminated by the sky, the crystal ice cubes reveal a brilliant blue light.

Among those blue ice blocks, Xuexian saw several black figures hiding behind.

It was a few otters that were shivering.

There are two big ones and one small one, and the young one is still held in the arms of the female otter. Their fur is smooth and smooth, and their belly is also fat. They are looking curiously at the humans above with their dark peas.

It turned out that these animals were hiding underground.

Xue Xian was thinking this way, when the snow under his feet suddenly sank: "Ah!!"

The ice and snow collapsed where he was standing, and before he had time to think, he fell into the gap with a large piece of snow!

The otters squeaked and scurried about in the crevices.

Xue Xian was dizzy from the fall, and those otters were not afraid of people, standing on a piece of solid ice in front of him, still making a delicate cry of "beep, beep, beep", as if they were worried about this human being, very cute.

"I'm fine!" Xuexian said to the otters.

The thick snow that collapsed together gave him a lot of buffer, otherwise he would definitely fall on the ice and break his blood.

Xue Xian stood up from a pile of snow, panting heavily, he wanted to climb up along the surrounding snow.

But the foundation underneath was already loose, as soon as he stepped on it, the snowflakes and ice cubes would continue to collapse one after another, and he couldn't even climb up for a while!

At this time, the otters suddenly scattered and fled in shock, and one of them stepped on Xuexian's foot in a panic.

As soon as the light in front of him dimmed, Xue Xian raised his head and saw a pair of huge golden pupils.

The silver baby dragon was lying on top of the gap, ready to look down.

what……

Xuexian was shocked, how did this dragon know he was here? !

Did it smell his scent after it returned, or did it come after him?

Being followed by such a huge creature, he didn't realize it!

The young dragon's head moved down again, confirming that Xuexian was in the gap, it opened its bloody mouth angrily at him, and let out a terrifying roar that made people's hearts tear.

The sound waves made the snow on the surrounding branches rustle and fall, and some small animals that were hiding also rushed to escape.

Xuexian's expression changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but fall into the snow and tremble all over.

His escape completely angered the dragon!

But the scene where half of his body was bitten off by the enraged dragon didn't happen.

After the dragon roared, he climbed down the gap with both feet and wings. The gap that was not too big gradually collapsed, and was pressed into a big snow pit by this giant.

It's hunting otters!

Those otters were so clever, they were so small that they could dive into holes whenever they saw them, and the dragon succeeded after several consecutive attacks.

A fat otter was caught in its mouth and died on the spot. The blood ran down the fur and seeped all the way into the snow.

In nature, the law of the jungle is the law of nature. For the dragon, otters and fish are both food, there is no difference at all, but Xue Xian was still shocked by this cruel scene, unable to move for a long time.

Suddenly, the young dragon stood still for a second or two.

It looked at Xue Xian, then spat out the otter carcass in its mouth, and threw the otter to him.
