"Jiao, Lord Jiao God! Is it really you?" It was too late to say it, but then, Ximei got carried away and reached out to hug the ice dragon into her arms. She also shouted: "I am in your temple. Priestess and witch who has served for many years—Ximei, do you recognize me?"
"Uh, well, little girl, although Master Jiao is not averse to being held by a beautiful girl, the Jiao God you are talking about is indeed not me." Bing Jiao muttered in the other person's soft arms at this time: " Don’t admit it to the wrong person...ah no, it’s the wrong Jiao.”
"No, no, I didn't admit my mistake." At this moment, Ximei shouted as if she was hysterical: "I have been in the White Dragon Temple for so many years, how could I admit that the Lord Jiao God was wrong?"
After that, with tears in her eyes, she whispered: "Lord Jiao God, please help us, the Zhenyu people, now that bad guy Black Overlord is about to occupy the Undersea City, and our protective barrier will not last long. I don’t want to see those old people and children sad and living in despair every day, even my father..."
"That's enough, Ximei!" Suddenly, the young patriarch Jie'an beside him roared: "Even if you are willful, there must be a limit. Lord Bingjiao and the others are just guests who occasionally pass by the Undersea City. They are not what you have in mind." The Jiao God has to solve his own difficulties by himself."
"If you just beg the gods for help but don't work hard to save yourself, even the gods will abandon you!"
He said angrily: "Don't you understand this?"
"Huh?!" After hearing this, Ximei woke up from her somewhat abnormal mood. She let go of the ice dragon in her arms with a sob, and then whispered: "Yes, I'm sorry, I..."
At this point, a crystal teardrop happened to fall on Bingjiao's forehead. Somehow, even Bingjiao felt a bit of sadness in his heart and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
"Oh, sister Ximei, why are you crying? We didn't say we wouldn't help."
Xiao Hei drank up the juice in the glass quite boldly at this time, then strode forward, took her hand and said with a smile: "Although my ice dragon is not a dragon god, if you have any difficulties, just tell us, if you can We will never refuse to help, don’t you think?"
"Not bad, not bad. Since I drank such good wine, Lord Jiao is naturally willing to help." Hearing Bingjiao's words, the guarding figurine said calmly: "If the master is not here, he must obey the decision of the majority of his companions. Therefore, I listen Their."
At this time, Xiao? poked his head out of the empty wine jar: "And I, I want to help you too."
Finally, the young Zhenyu humanoid Meng Li also whispered: "If the young patriarch and Miss Ximei don't dislike it, I will also be willing to help."
"Thank you, thank you all, you are so kind." After listening to everyone's words, Ximei, who was wiping her tears, and his brother Jie'an were very moved. Xiao Hei said at this time: "Okay, I also drank the juice, let's talk Let’s talk about how we can help.”
"Well, actually the most important thing now is to strengthen the underwater city barrier, which has gradually weakened its defense."
Jie'an smiled bitterly and said: "My father, the patriarch, has been holding on to the core hub of the barrier for several months, exhausting his own spiritual energy to maintain the operation of the barrier. However, my father is old, and I guess he can also support it. It won’t be long.”
After hearing this, Bingjiao asked: "Hey, what exactly needs to be done to strengthen the barrier?"
"The huge barrier of our underwater city is formed by the simultaneous release of spiritual energy from two pieces of 'Lingji Jade' in the huge core hub."
Ximei next to her explained: "Over the years, the aura of Lingji Jade has weakened to the extreme due to long-term abuse. My father had to move to the core hub and continuously input his own spiritual energy into Lingji Jade. However, It's just an emergency measure."
"I see, as long as a large amount of spiritual energy is poured into that Lingji Jade, it can help you, right? This is easy to handle." Xiao Hei put his hands on his hips and said, "I'm not bragging, we have enough spiritual energy in our bodies. Very, definitely can help you.”
"If that's the case, that would be great." After hearing this, the Young Patriarch brother and sister were ecstatic. Meng Li next to them also lost no time in saying, "Although I have little power, I will do my best to help you, Young Patriarch."
"Okay, let's go to the Undersea City barrier hub immediately." Jie'an is very anxious now. You must know that if you reach the elder father of your clan earlier, you can get rid of the other party's predicament earlier.
So, he called the captain of the guard, Balu, and he, his sister, and all the guests walked together and hurried towards the core hub of the barrier near the White Dragon Temple.
On the way, the young man named Meng Li walked closer to the young clan elder brother and sister, talking and laughing happily, while Balu, Xiao Hei and his party walked behind, keeping some distance from the three of them.
Suddenly, Bingjiao asked unexpectedly: "Hey, Balu, why are you staring ahead, a little absent-minded?"
"Huh?" Balu finally came to his senses after being asked like this. But at this moment, Balu just shook his head, and then whispered in a low voice: "Maybe I made a mistake. Lord Bingjiao, you don't need to pay too much attention. .”
"Hey, hey, the more you say that, the more uneasy I feel." When Bingjiao said this, Xiao Hei, Guarding Figurine and Swallowing Star Xiao? all came over, and they all said in unison: "That's right. That’s what we think too.”
After hearing everyone's words, Balu seemed a little embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment, looked at the people in front of him, and finally whispered a few words in their ears.
"What? Are you doubting..." Xiao Hei was about to shout, but felt that he couldn't say it, so he quickly reached out and covered his mouth. The ice dragon next to him said: "Since you are willing to tell this matter, , which proves that you trust us quite a bit, so what do you think we should do?"
"Well, actually my suspicion has no basis. If I tell the young patriarch and the young lady now, I'm afraid they will scold me for being nosy."
Balu scratched his head, obviously there was no good solution. Bingjiao thought for a while and said: "Let's just wait and see what happens for the time being. We will also pay attention to you. Even if the other party has some vicious tricks, we can't escape them. s eyes."
Hearing this, Balu nodded slightly: "Well, in that case, thank you very much."
"It doesn't matter, my brother-in-law said, 'Life is just a play, whether it's good or bad depends on your acting skills.'" Xiao Hei chuckled at this time and said: "Now we all have to use our acting skills as if nothing happened to deceive that 'him' , remember, don’t let your flaws be seen.”
Hearing this, all the companions, including Balu, said in unison: "I obey, keep it in mind!"
"Hey, what are you talking about? You're so excited."
