What a handsome man.
Even Long Miao couldn't help but sigh like this. He has a delicate appearance and a chiseled face. Although he can be seen as a man, his complexion is delicate and fair, like a woman's. Is he wearing a woman's dark eye makeup, or are his features just that deep? His phoenix eyes are slightly raised, with long and thick eyelashes on the slightly drooped eyelids. He carries himself like a prince, and his upper body is upright. His long black hair is smooth and bright, with dark blue spots showing through. He wears a special half-fan-shaped feather crown on his head, which must match his clothes. Besides, the clothes are in a style only for nobles: exquisite, complicated, and colorful, with the three colors of blue, green, and indigo well arranged and complementing each other. And that cloak... Although it matches the clothes very well, isn't it too exaggerated? Accompanied by the first light of the morning sun, the cloak glowed with a thin copper-colored light, overflowing with brilliance and beauty.
This is an outfit that should never be seen in such wilderness.
It's a monster, Long Miao quickly made a judgment. Sometimes his sense of sight works faster than his sense of smell, which is somewhat uncharacteristic of monsters. However, he could tell that the real monster in front of him should be much younger than him, maybe only half his age... he looked to be only two or three hundred years old. If human appearance is used as a standard, he will never be more than thirty years old.
However, that person was slightly taller than Long Miao. Even so, when he came to him, the man still raised his head and looked at him from top to bottom, with something in his eyes that Long Miao couldn't explain - but he recognized the contemptuous part.
"Is this your partner?" he asked.
The sound is also good, but the monster quality is terrible. This is Long Miao's conclusion.
"Who are you……"
"While you were resting, I walked around and met this friend." Uoyue-kun took the initiative and introduced him, "We chatted for a while and he asked for something from us."
"Strictly speaking, I am asking for something from you." The monster's attitude became obviously respectful, "After all, only the well-informed Zaowang Wichang can help me."
"Hahaha, I dare not take it seriously. To be honest, I can only entrust the information to more colleagues."
"What's the matter? Do you need to go through so much trouble?" Long Miao didn't understand. From the beginning, the two of them were talking to themselves, and he felt that he was just as unable to keep up with their conversation as if he hadn't woken up.
Utsuki-kun briefly explained what happened. This man is indeed a monster, and he is of the same race as Long Miao - they are both bird monsters. No wonder, the color of the feather crown, clothes and cloak is indeed a match related to the peacock. The clothing is covered with a layer of fine down with a gradient sheen. There is an oval eye-shaped spot at the tip of the feather. In the center of the spot, there is a dark purple small round spot. The outer part is bright and eye-catching blue-green, and then there is a wide green-brown circle around it, surrounded by a light yellow narrow edge. The outermost layer is Light grape red color. There are no eye spots at the tip of the cloak, the feather tips are rhombus-shaped, and the tips are sickle-shaped feathers. Based on the current performance, Long Miao didn't think that he didn't reveal his half-demon identity to give each other face, but because this guy didn't see it at all. But it doesn’t matter, hasn’t he said it yet? Uoyue-kun would never take the initiative to mention this matter to others. So what if he sees it? For Long Miao, as long as he is not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.
And this demon bird originally had its own territory and tribe, and even claimed to be the local king. His territory was far away from here, and for some reason, he left there and wandered around for a while. Interestingly, he made a friend, a dragon with powerful demonic power. At this point, Long Miao felt a little unbelievable. Is this guy bragging? But since Mr. Uoyue spoke so seriously, he continued to listen with dignity. That dragon friend just came to the land. He was looking for someone, a mermaid girl. In the deep sea, she had white hair and eyes, and she was graceful and graceful. But when she came to land and became a human, it was hard to tell... Among the mermaids, she was very old. Although she still maintained her beauty, she might be an old lady among humans. .
"One thousand two hundred years old..." Long Miao thought, "Isn't it said that the sharks live for a thousand years and the dragons live for ten thousand years? One thousand two hundred years old is indeed a long life."
"How ignorant." The monster suddenly sneered, "Nine thousand years is also a thousand years, and ninety million years is also ten thousand years. When the human race did not exist, the dragon race was born, and some are even still alive today. And the sharks' The average lifespan is about three thousand years old. I heard from my dragon friends that among the relatives of the sharks, the longest-lived person lived to be about four to five thousand years old before passing away. Different from the age calculations of monsters and humans, the lifespan of the sharks It can never be calculated based on the calculation of how many years are equal to one year - when they are young, young, middle-aged, and old, they must be converted in different proportions."
There was an omniscient superiority in his words. Although he had gained knowledge, Long Miao couldn't be happy. Lord Maoyue also said that the shark might be related to the Yin and Yang movement in the stream. According to the dragon tribe, the two of them might know each other. Since he met me by chance, I should tell Kanna-kun about this when I get the chance.
"Kanna-kun? What is their relationship?"
"Is it your turn to ask a question?"
Long Miao was about to speak but stopped. He once again changed his understanding of this monster. Rather, this inexplicable hostility has begun to make him feel weird. Lord Uoyue was always so kind, ignoring and tolerating his rudeness, and still had a gentle attitude. And this monster's attitude towards her was respectful. Doesn't this guy like his own kind? Long Miao thought hard and didn't understand why he had this attitude towards her.
Haven't you seen Uoyuki-kun before? Why are you just talking about me? Although he wanted to ask this question, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, especially for the sake of Lord Uoyue, Long Miao remained silent.
"That dragon clan is from the Nine Heavens Kingdom." The monster said, "My father is also from there."
Lord Mao Yue nodded slightly and said, "Your Majesty is more than a thousand years old at least. Maybe he knows some of these things."
"My father has passed away. Otherwise I would probably ask him directly."
"Oh... I'm sorry. I should have thought of it." Uoyuki-kun showed a kind and apologetic smile.
"It doesn't matter, this happened a long time ago. After the death of the divine bird Garuda, humans began to persecute the remaining demon bird clan... Unfortunately, my father was the subordinate of the divine bird, a blue peacock who cultivated into a demon. He fled to this continent from the South and almost shed a layer of skin. Many of his compatriots were not spared at that time. Especially those who prayed to the Bird God and borrowed the wish-fulfilling beads, humans even turned around like monsters eating people. Eat them...as if you can get this power."
"Human beings are like this," Lord Uoyue said calmly, as if he was not one of them, "However, the same curse as wishing for the birth of the wish-fulfilling pearl has invaded Garuda's dead body, and he alone has been responsible for it since his death. "
"Indeed. But I heard that his heart is pure glass, which can purify all disasters. I don't know whether it is true or not. My father fled to the south of this continent and met my mother in a mountain stream - she is a green peacock Came from practice."
It turns out that he is a mixed race, and he is considered a second-generation demon. It's no wonder that a monster like this is superior. I don't have to go through the hardships of cultivation, and I am born with powerful demon power. Among humans and various animals, the farther the blood relationship is, the healthier and stronger the offspring will be. This is a law of nature. Therefore, I am afraid that this guy has never suffered any hardships since his birth. He is a young man who has grown up smoothly. Since his father had suffered, Bao Buqi was somewhat pampered. However, it might also be of some benefit to his education, otherwise he would not be able to lead the monsters of the land and water. Probably... these are all guesses. After all, Takimiao doesn't know how the monsters live in the area he leads, and whether he is very majestic - maybe he inherited his mother's territory and people. Forget it, it has nothing to do with me.
"My mother's clan is also living a very bad life in the area. Many people know that there are southern demon birds that have fled here and hunted and killed them indiscriminately. Even if there is no such thing, green peacocks are often captured and presented as tributes. Human princes and nobles will lose their freedom forever. Therefore, it is difficult for me to like humans." His eyes slanted towards Long Miao, whether it was unintentional or a hint. He paused and then said: "There are exceptions to everything. My father taught me that I should not always be satisfied with my current excellence, but should learn from the strong men of various races with an open mind. And this is not just about magic, but also There are many things I lack. I know that I am arrogant and arrogant, and some of the six realms of impermanence are invisible to my eyes - you are the only one who deserves all my respect."
Utsuki-kun smiled, not sure how he felt about the compliment, but at least he seemed to accept it happily. Long Miao felt awkward, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.
"By the way, I almost forgot to mention," Lord Maoyue stretched out a hand to indicate Long Miao's direction, "I have already introduced him. He is Long Miao, from the Egret clan. This young master's name is Kong Lingbei, and he is... "
Kong Lingbei rarely took the initiative to interrupt Mao Yuejun. He said quietly: "You said he was an egret, but I thought he was such a graceful and immortal young master. Who would have thought that he was actually a reckless man."
"If you want to fight, just say so." He responded.
Kong Lingbei suddenly retracted his arms behind him and pulled out a pair of weapons. It turned out that they were stored under his cloak. It was a pair of sharp water thorns, glowing with a layer of brass color, with purple copper at the end. The color was natural and gorgeous, glowing in the sunlight. His action of drawing out the weapon was also very gorgeous. According to Long Miao's opinion, it was too fancy. Although there are not many flaws in this one action, it will definitely be exposed in a fight. He didn't want to fight Kong Ling, especially in front of Lord Uoyue.
However, Long Miao felt that he was very prejudiced against her from just now. The atmosphere reminded him of the courtship scene of birds: the male birds, all dressed up in dazzling attire, showed great attentiveness, posing and winking next to the female birds. Although Mr. Kong Ling still maintained his usual reserve and was only very polite to Mr. Mao Yue, which was not the same as flattery, the way he flattered him was like two male birds pecking at each other in front of the opposite sex. It doesn't matter, anyway, it's not like he and Uoyuki-kun have a shady relationship.
This farce ended with Utsuki-kun's persuasion. They talked a lot more. To be precise, Long Miao listened to the chatter of those two people, all of which were useless and time-wasting topics. Finally, Kong Lingbei said goodbye to them - he said goodbye to Lord Maoyue and left reluctantly. Only in front of her could Master Kong Ling's behavior and words be worthy of the word "Master". Long Miao didn't know what time it was, he only knew that the sun was shining brightly, slightly to the west. This must be the hottest time of the day.
"You know? He probably left because he was afraid of getting tanned." Taki Miao teased, "After all, there are no people here to hold up the canopy for him. I said, don't you think he is very strange?"
"That's a bit." Uoyue-kun laughed and suddenly left here. Long Miao waited for a long time and finally wanted to move, so he rushed over. Not long after he left, Lord Uoyue said to him again: "Do you know what he said when he first met me?"
"Can I not ask?" Long Miao shrugged, "Forget it, it's up to you."
"He said, 'Have we met somewhere?'"
"...This way of picking up a conversation is really old-fashioned." Long Miao commented.
"Indeed, I said the same thing as you. But I know very well that the child's soul has seen me."
"Soul...?" Long Miao glanced at her.
"Yes. Do you still remember that I once said that before I became the underworld, I was a witch in the mountains?"
"Remember, your prophecy was framed by the villagers..."
"Master Kong Ling is the reincarnation of my lover countless times.
"Varied……"
