Bai Lian was stunned for a moment.
Perhaps in the Dragon Clan's concept of death, only by returning to the Dragon Tomb and withering into bones can the real death be ushered in.
Whether she wraps her body like a white snake around his wrist, curls up into a ball, or curls up against his heart, she can no longer find the deep warmth she felt in the past.
The absence of the familiar heartbeat made her, a dragon who was not very emotional, feel a sour and lonely mood.
That boy back then was like a lost pearl in the ocean, lost in the depths of memory.
At this time, she could not understand the difference between humans and corpse demons.
What made her heart even more desolate was that her body was naturally cold and low-temperature, and she couldn't even respond to the warm gift she received from him back then.
The days in Sinjianchi were dark, and the only things that could be seen all day long were the "strange" looking human disciples and their formidable eyes that were ready to move.
She hates humans. She has hated humans since the day she was born.
That night, her scales were shattered and she fled into his courtyard with wounds all over her body.
The child temporarily sheltered and protected her. At that time, she had experienced the death of a close relative and blood feud. Even if she gained a moment of kindness, she would regard it as a trap for deception.
The reason why she stayed in the child's bamboo house was not because of the kind assistance.
The cold, arrogant and aloof creatures of the Dragon Clan will never waver in any way because of the small kindness of human beings.
What really made her stay in that cabin was that she saw the same feeling of loneliness in that little child.
The courtyard of the bamboo house was not locked, but it was no different from the cage in the Sin Sword Pond.
It looked like a human child, but in her eyes, it looked like a self-denying body with a soul that was determined to be miserable.
Like a little monster who was forced to grow up.
And in this world.
Unique things are monsters.
Even if the bloodline is high, the only thing left is a monster.
Even though the world said dragons were gods and auspicious beasts, she knew in her heart that in a world where rarity was valued, dragons were monsters that were coveted by everyone and made countless people crazy because of their greed.
The two monsters, who do not meet the definition of the world, rely on the meager emotions that do not need to be expressed verbally, but are tacitly understood, carefully avoiding other people, and coexisting with the outside world, pretending to be well-behaved and docile things.
In this world, there are many creatures who are attracted by the warmth of Bailian, such as Xiaolu, Shuci, Su Jing, Yin Baishuang...
Only Xiao Bailong knew a secret about him that even he himself didn't know.
Her little master, in some respects, is the same as her. Deep down deep in his heart, he is truly contradictory, loving the world passionately and hating human beings at the same time.
What is extremely white is extremely black.
On the contrary, this was what really attracted her and made her willing to accept him as her master.
But even so, her little master is still warm, like the rising sun, like a young rabbit in the mountains. She, who understands everything, can't help but get close to him and is willing to surrender.
When we meet again, it seems that nothing has changed, but everything... seems to have changed.
The child who once couldn't even bear to kill a fish, is now able to kill a group of immortals without changing his expression.
The master is still her master, but no longer warm.
She was worried and scared that such a master was getting colder and colder, and there was no longer any warmth left.
Bai Shaoyan was about to take back his hand when he suddenly felt a cold feeling on the back of his hand, covering it with a cold and slender palm.
She calmly raised her deep purple pupils and met Balian's moist and bright black eyes.
He smiled at her and asked softly: "Did I...disappoint you?"
Bai Shaoyan shook his head seriously and retorted: "Master is very strong. In my heart, he is more indestructible than anyone else."
Balian drooped his eyelids and chuckled: "But the fact is exactly the opposite. I am incompetent and weak. I have just developed a way of living by obeying other people's expectations since I was a child. In fact, I am neither warm nor strong. .
On the contrary, the longer I live, the more I find that I am as hypocritical as most people. I have no ability to heal the pain of others. I do not have omnipotent super powers. In the end, I find that I am even less able to do it and will fall into obsession. To save others from suffering..."
He paused slightly, then added: "Even because of my body, I no longer like the sun, let alone be able to live towards the sun. The cold emotions are not gradually cooling down because I have not been in the sun for a long time, but I discovered that I am not warm at all."
Bai Shaoyan's vertical pupils were slightly opened, and his heart seemed to be airtightly wrapped by some invisible thing.
Balian raised his eyelids and looked at her, smiled slightly, and said: "But I don't think there is anything wrong with being like this now. Even if I kill people, I no longer feel scared. On the contrary, this kind of myself makes me feel more real."
He sighed softly: "I can see that you are sad at the moment, but I really don't know how to comfort you."
Bai Shaoyan shook his head again, his eyebrows were solemn, he took his hand away from Bai Lian's palm, and said seriously: "I am your servant, what kind of useless servant I am, and I am so cowardly that I need the comfort of my master, this is for For our Dragon Clan, this is a great shame and humiliation."
But you look very unhappy at the moment.
Balian didn't say these words. He watched Bai Shaoyan take two steps back in a serious manner, returning to his usual conscientious appearance. Then he took two steps forward like a leisurely stroll, closing some distance.
He smiled and stretched out his hand to Bai Shaoyan and said: "It is said that it is difficult to guess a girl's thoughts. If you fail to guess correctly, it will make the girl even more unhappy.
Okay, then I won’t comfort you. Whatever you want to do at this moment and whatever you want to choose, it’s all okay with me. "
"Is everything... okay?"
Balian's dark and gentle eyes came closer, and he said softly: "My little white dragon is unhappy, so I think I should coax her, um, in the way she likes."
Bai Shaoyan's cold expression was a little confused for a moment.
Why, in a few words, he pushed the problem back to her.
What's even more amazing is.
She didn't even feel any disgust at all.
Instead, there was a subtle... shyness.
She belatedly took a half step back, but her eyes fell on Bailian's outstretched palm.
So, she took half a step back and stopped awkwardly.
Bai Shaoyan lowered his eyes deeply, slowly bent his body, and lowered his head to Balian's hand.
He is clearly a cold and noble true dragon, but his posture and movements at this moment are like a big furry dog that begs to be petted.
"Then Master, can you touch my horn with the name on it...?"
Balian chuckled, and he raised his hand to touch her dragon horns.
I believe that Xiao Bailong's method of coaxing her is much easier than Shu Ci's. Sure enough, pure family relationships will not allow people to push their limits...
As soon as her thoughts came to her mind and before she touched her hand twice, Bai Shaoyan took another two steps closer to Bai Lian. The silver slender dragon horn pressed against Bai Lian's chest. She lowered her head and could not clearly see the expression on her face. .
Her usual calm and frosty voice continued to sound: "Master, can you... be like you were when you were a child?"
"Like when you were a kid?" Balian was stunned for a moment, but it wasn't because he didn't remember how he coaxed Little White Snake when she had a tantrum as a kid, but he didn't expect that she would take the initiative to mention it.
And as a child, she was a little snake.
Now she is taller and taller than him. No matter how you look at it, there is a huge sense of gap.
Bai Shaoyan's stunned reaction immediately misunderstood Bai Shaoyan.
She thought that Balian had forgotten every memory of their life together when they were children.
Bai Shaoyan's silver hair fluttered twice on its own without the wind, and she didn't say a word. There was an inexplicable low pressure in the atmosphere around her.
A pair of dragon horns in front of his chest pushed up Baili An's body. The force was so strong that Baili An took two steps back.
She raised her head, glanced at Bailian with a faint look, raised her hand and prepared to hide the pair of dragon horns.
Bai Lian raised his finger, and a light-colored collar appeared between Bai Shaoyan's slender neck.
He hooked his fingers around the collar, and while stopping Bai Shaoyan from hiding her dragon horns, he used a little force on his arm to pull her over, leaned forward and raised his hand, and kissed her gently on the dragon horns with her real name engraved on it. one time.
The silver chain between the wrist and the neck is closely connected.
The contract is like eternity, and the sound of the rainstorm in my ears seems to be far away.
