It took Li Weidong almost half a minute to confirm that this guy was not joking. In fact, the requirements of the divination master are not difficult to understand. The central idea is that as long as you marry the holy girl of our dragon clan, we will treat you as one of our own. From now on, you will be the boss, and all the brothers will follow you. The subtext is that if you don't marry me, then I'm sorry. In the future, you should not meddle in the internal affairs of our dragon clan.
The background of the game is ancient. In fact, in the feudal society of the past, marriages were very common. In most people's eyes, in-laws are also one of the relatively stable relationships, so they are often used as an effective means of forming gangs. Even today, political marriages are common for the benefit of family groups, to divide camps and win people's hearts, etc. Once they are actually married, both parties will form a community of interests to some extent, and both will suffer losses and both will be prosperous. To put it more simply, it is equivalent to being in the same boat. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Gua Master, who is a descendant of the dragon clan and the vice-president of the secret guild, would make such a request.
But Li Weidong felt a chill running down his spine. He was very aware of the behavior of these descendants of the Dragon Clan. They typically showed no interest in getting too early. If they showed generosity to someone, they would obviously seek more rewards from the other party. And now these guys are willing to marry him the saint who represents the highest authority of the Holy Dragon Clan, and are even willing to respect him as their leader. What does this mean? Is it possible that you really plan to keep him in the game world from now on?
Yes, if you want to recruit someone to join the team and make him one of your own in the true sense, assimilating him or her is undoubtedly the most direct and effective way. If he really can never return to reality and can only wander around in this virtual world like a lonely ghost, then what is the essential difference between him and these lifeless NPCs in front of him!
¡° He had a vague premonition that a crisis was approaching, but Li Weidong had no capital to refuse. The taskbar is empty, the plot has reached a deadlock, and Shen Tian's fate is equally uncertain. Even if Li Weidong knows that there is an abyss of destruction before him, he no longer has the power to choose!
"Okay, I promise you." Li Weidong stared at the divination master and said word by word: "I swear, after the saint's soul awakens, I will marry her as my wife. I am willing to join the Holy Dragon Clan and promise you everything. condition!"
Li Weidong has always had a special feeling for Shen Tian, ??like a father and daughter, like a brother and sister, or a combination of both. Bringing her into the real world with my own hands, picking her up from the eggshell with my own hands, and watching her grow day by day with my own eyes, this feeling is difficult to express clearly in a few words. It's just that Li Weidong has always treated her as a child. He never thought that one day he would personally make such a vow to marry her. He always felt strange in his heart. Was it guilt or something else? He couldn't explain it. .
But this feeling only passed by for a moment, and now is obviously not the time to think wildly. This is just a game, everything is fake, even marriage is just in name, and you don¡¯t know how to get married, so what do you care about? As for swearing, it doesn¡¯t matter if you say the vows in the virtual world casually.
The Gua Master, the Teleporter and the Escort Li Er, the three NPCs clearly showed joyful expressions on their faces. They put their right hands on their left chests and knelt down on one knee. The Gua Master said: "Great Rogue Halo, thank you for your generous and wise decision. , you have brought light and hope to the great revival of the Holy Dragon Clan! I swear that I and all the descendants of the Dragon Clan will follow your footsteps, for the glory of the Dragon Clan! Your Excellency Rogue Halo, please come with us to the Fountain of Life now. "
The teleporter opened his arms and began to recite a spell. As circles of light blue mysterious runes swirled up, a dazzling olive-shaped portal slowly opened. Li Weidong took back the baby Wolf God, then returned to hold Shen Tian's little hand on his back, took a deep breath, and stepped into the portal without hesitation.
The so-called Fountain of Life is likely to be the same as the Spider-Man Tunnel and the Longshou Village that he visited before when he was looking for artifacts. It is equivalent to a derivative map of the game Hunshi. However, the moment Li Weidong passed through the portal, he was still fascinated by the scene in front of him. A little shocked.
This is the top of a snow-capped mountain, towering like a sharp sword piercing the sky. Thick snow covers halfway up the mountain, and occasionally blue-black boulders struggle out of the white snow, which further highlights the majesty of the mountain. The snow-capped peaks are surrounded by low mountains, as if they were ordinary people worshiping at the feet of the gods. They are covered with lush colors and undulate like waves flowing into the distance. The sky is pure and transparent blue, with not a trace of cloud in sight. It looks extraordinarily high and far away. The sun is shining brightly, and the sky and earth are full of life.
This is a rich and colorful picture, not gentle and delicate, but it highlights the majesty and vastness of nature. Li Weidong was sure that this was definitely not the snow-capped mountain in the new expansion pack where the Ice Furnace was located. In his memory, there was no map in the world that was more spectacular than this. Is this the fountain of life, the birthplace of the sacred dragon clan?
This guess was soon confirmed.On the south side of the mountain top, a pool of water with an area of ??more than ten meters was exposed in the thick snow. It was filled with light mist. On the top of such a cold snow mountain and among the ice and snow, the pool was not frozen at all. The color is a bright blue like a watercolor painting. There are no ripples on the surface of the water, and the bottom cannot be seen. I don¡¯t know whether the spring water is melted from snow or gushes from the ground.
There are many people gathered around the spring, at least forty or fifty. The Gua Master said before that requesting Li Weidong to join the Dragon Clan was the decision of all the Dragon Clan descendants. This should not be a lie, because when these people first saw Li Weidong, they all put their right hands on his left chest and knelt down on one knee. I think it was because Since Li Weidong appeared here with the saint, it means that he has agreed to their request, so he greeted him in this way of worshiping the leader.
What surprised Li Weidong slightly was that among these people there were NPC members of the secret guild, such as the fisherman from Wolongtan in the royal city, the antique dealer in the fallen swamp, and the villager of Longshou Village who he had rescued a long time ago, the white man. The bearded old village chief also came. What made him even more unexpected was that among these people there were actually the dragon guards who had been eliminated by Spider-Man, the Immortal Holy Dragon, the Beacon Fury Dragon, and even the two-winged assassins killed by the Wolf God were also among them!
Damn it, shouldn¡¯t these guys be dead? Li Weidong almost subconsciously pulled out the Flame Blade, and the fortune teller beside him quickly explained: "The fountain of life can awaken sleeping souls and resurrect the dead. It is through the power of the spring that the elite warriors of the Dragon Clan, the Iron-Blooded Dragon Knights, She was resurrected. Although the saint had unlocked the seal of the dragon egg and was born out of the shell, the power in her body had not yet awakened. When she was baptized by the holy spring, it would not only awaken her sleeping soul, but also give her the power of a saint. The true strength of the pulse.¡±
????????????????????????????????? No wonder the NPCs didn¡¯t hold grudges after the dragon guards were killed. It turns out that this spring water still has such a powerful power. So what kind of power will Shen Tian gain after being baptized by the spring water? Is it to transform into a dragon, or
When Shen Tian first entered the game, his attributes were unknown but obviously very low. If he could really get power from the fountain of life, Li Weidong didn't know whether it should be considered a good thing or a bad thing. What he hopes most now is to bring Shen Tian back to the real world safely, so that she can be a normal person, study and live like girls of the same age, get married and have children, and live a peaceful and happy life. At the same time, he also understands that in this crisis-ridden virtual world, people with low attributes like Xiao Tiantian have to face unknown risks anytime and anywhere. This time there is a fountain of life that can revive her, but what about next time? Who can guarantee that we will have the same luck?
He untied the cloak tied around his body and gently held Shen Tian in his arms. This girl looked like a sleeping child. Her childish face was as delicate as jelly, so beautiful and cute, so pitiful. In reality, no matter how beautiful a girl is, she will inevitably have small regrets of one kind or another, but Xiao Tiantian is pure perfection, like an extremely delicate porcelain doll, with even one eyelash and one eyelash. The hair seemed to be carefully carved, and there was no flaw to be found. It seems that only the virtual world can give birth to such a perfect princess. What is sad is that fate has given her a beautiful face, but why should her life be full of twists and turns and hardships?
Gently patting her pale cheek, Li Weidong said: "Xiao Tiantian, my brother promised that he will always be with you. No matter what happens, I will be by your side. Do you remember that you said you couldn't let go of Linlin?" Sister, Sister Weiwei, they will live happily with them for the rest of their lives, don't make brother sad, I'm waiting for you to wake up."
Carefully trimming her long hair, Li Weidong carefully put Shen Tian into the fountain of life according to the guidance of the divination master. But as soon as he let go of his hand, he was surprised. Xiao Tiantian's body sank directly into the water, and even her shadow disappeared. The calm spring water suddenly started to roll violently as if it had been boiled. Li Weidong almost subconsciously wanted to jump down and grab someone, but the divination master stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "The baptism ceremony of the saint will take at least six hours. Chief, please wait patiently. We will pray devoutly for the saint."
The NPCs surrounding the water pool knelt down one after another, putting their foreheads on the ground, spreading their hands with their palms upward, and chanted in a low voice in a language that Li Weidong could not understand. Six hours is twelve hours, and it is now a quarter to nine in the morning, which means that if nothing else happens, Shen Tian will probably wake up at night. Although Li Weidong was as anxious as grass growing, he couldn't do anything to help at this time and could only pray silently for her over and over again in his heart.
Happy times always pass by in a hurry, and the more excruciating the wait, the longer it becomes. Li Weidong did nothing this whole day. He just stood quietly next to the holy spring on the top of the snow-capped mountains, watching the sun climb up to the zenith inch by inch, and then slowly set inch by inch until it disappeared from the horizon. A bright moon rises from the sky, casting a cold light. There is silence in the vast world, only the spring of life is still there.Boiling, mixed with the low prayers of the dragon descendants.
It is getting closer and closer to nine o'clock in the evening, and Li Weidong is getting more and more anxious. Although it seems that the possibility of Shen Tian's accident is unlikely, when relatives are wandering between life and death, and their lives hang on a thread, it is impossible not to be nervous. Finally, the boiling spring water calmed down, and the descendants of the dragon clan also stopped praying and stood up to watch. Li Weidong jumped to the edge of the spring, staring at the gradually calming water, his heart almost in his throat.
The fountain of life soon returned to its previous appearance. The calm water surface was like a mirror, reflecting the moon on the zenith, but there was no shadow of Shen Tian. Time passed by second by second, nine o'clock, quarter past nine, still no response. Li Weidong's tears burst out involuntarily. He raised his feet and wanted to jump down. The Gua Master and several descendants of the Dragon Clan hurriedly stopped him.
Li Weidong grabbed the divination master by the collar and roared: "Where is my sister? Where is my sister? How dare you fucking lie to me"
With a crash, a huge wave suddenly surged up in the center of the spring, breaking the flat water surface in an instant. Silvery water droplets rolled and splashed from the center to all directions, like a blooming lotus platform. Under the bright moonlight, a pretty figure slowly emerged from the water. She was dressed in a plain white dress, with fluttering skirts and long shawl. Her hair was fluttering lightly, as if a fairy from the sky had descended into the mortal world. Li Weidong couldn't react for a while. He stared at the figure in a daze, his mouth wide open but he forgot what to say.
"Brother, it's me, I'm Xiao Tiantian, I, I'm still alive!"
Stepping on the waves, Shen Tian walked towards Li Weidong step by step, with a charming little face smiling happily, but there were sparkling tears in her eyes. It wasn't until she walked in front of her that Li Weidong woke up from a dream. He quickly let go of the divination master, grabbed Shen Tian and looked at her from top to bottom, front to back, and made sure that not even a hair on her body was missing, and she was still the same person as before. The perfect and cute little loli hugged her and said with a big smile: "Ha, hahaha! Xiao Tiantian, it's really you, okay, great, I"
Before he finished speaking, Li Weidong felt that his body suddenly became limp, his eyelids kept falling as if they were hung with weights, and an unprecedented fatigue surged from his body. It had been two days and one night since he entered the game this time. Li Weidong had no time to rest at all, and he couldn't even close his eyelids. Even though he has a powerful mental bonus, he is a human being after all, not an NPC. Faced with such an intense mission plot, every step is thrilling and his energy is severely exhausted. Coupled with Xiao Tiantian's death, Li Weidong's nerves had been stretched like a bowstring for more than ten hours. At this moment, he suddenly relaxed and could no longer hold on. He laughed twice and fell softly into Shen Tian's arms. , fell into a deep sleep.
This sleep was a rare sweet sleep, and he even had a dream. On an unknown island, he, Yao Wei, Shen Lin, several beauties, and Xiao Tiantian were covered on the beach at the seaside. His eyes were playing hide-and-seek, and he didn't know who he was hugging. Anyway, he just happened to touch his breast, and he wiped it back without any courtesy. Just at this moment, Li Weidong woke up from the dream, and found to his embarrassment that he was lying in Shen Tian's arms, with his head leaning on her newly developed breasts. No wonder he felt so comfortable in the dream just now.
"Why did I fall asleep? Where are the Gua Master and the others? Where are we now?"
"Brother, don't move. There are only two of us here. You can sleep a little longer."
Li Weidong straightened his waist and wanted to sit up, but Shen Tian held him down gently and stubbornly, so he stopped insisting. After looking around, I found that I was in a simple wooden house. Apart from a pair of tattered tables and chairs and a narrow wooden bed covered with hay, there was no other furniture. On the contrary, there were several animal skins hanging on the wall made of wooden boards, as well as a pair of crudely made bows and arrows, indicating that the owner of this house was probably a hunter.
"This is at the foot of the Holy Mountain. Master Gua asks you to wait for him here. He said that he has something to discuss with you tomorrow morning." Shen Tian pressed her soft little hand on his forehead gently and said, "Brother, I'm exhausted. Well, is this comfortable?"
Li Weidong said with a smile: "Of course, my sister is giving my brother a massage. Of course it feels comfortable. In fact, she is not very tired, but she has been too nervous these two days By the way, are you okay? The divination master said that after passing by the Fountain of Life Baptism will awaken the power of the saint's lineage, what do you think now?"
Shen Tian tilted her head, winked mischievously, and said, "I won't tell you."
"Ha, does that mean it feels good? You girl, you have learned to hide your intentions from your brother."
"That's not the case. I thinkbrother, if I knew something, well, like spells or something, would you thinkthat I'm different from others and that I'm a freak?"
Shen Tian¡¯s words were a little hesitant and her eyes were a little evasive. It could be seen that she was not happy about the so-called dragon clan¡¯s strength. Li Weidong patted her little hand and said, "Silly"Damn it, no matter what, you will always be my sister. What's wrong with being able to do magic? I also have all the equipment for the world. I don't know how many people would envy me if I tell you that. But Xiaotiantian, I hope you can promise me one thing. No matter what abilities you have now, these are limited to the game world. I don't want you to bring them into reality. Because the greater a person's ability, the greater the troubles in many cases. I want you to be an ordinary person and live a normal life like your peers. You are my sister. I just want you to be safe and happy. , I don¡¯t want you to experience any storms and twists and turns, do you understand? "
Shen Tian laughed happily, wrinkled her small nose cutely, and said: "I know." But soon her eyes dimmed again, and she whispered: "But brother, do you think we can still go back?" The real world?"
When Li Weidong thought about this, he felt as if an invisible needle had stabbed him hard in his heart. The plot of the Dragon Clan has developed so far, and many things have far exceeded his expectations. Whether he can return to reality, even he himself does not have a definite answer. But in reality, there are so many people and things that he can't let go of. His parents worked hard to raise him and they haven't had time to repay the kindness of raising him; Yao Wei, Shen Lin, Xia Ruobing and Xia Ruoyun, and others like him His childhood sweetheart Lin Yumeng, everyone and every relationship makes it difficult for him to let go
Looking back on the past year in the real world, he and they have experienced so many ups and downs, so many twists and turns, the grievances, love and hatred disputes between several big families, no matter how difficult things have been settled one by one, Xia Ruoyun has even started to deal with everyone's problems. Immigrate, and even plan to buy an island in the Caribbean or somewhere, and then you can enjoy the fairy life in a paradise But now, all these good wishes have become uncertain due to the world game. If he is really forcibly detained in the game world by an NPC this time, Li Weidong himself doesn't know how to accept it or face it.
But he didn¡¯t know how to tell Shen Tian these words. She was just a child, the age of love and longing. This fact was too cruel for her. Sighing secretly, Li Weidong smiled and said: "Not necessarily. Maybe I think the game world is better than reality, so maybe I don't want to go back."
Shen Tian curled her lips and said, "You lied. Then are you willing to let go of your wives?"
"Well, ahem." Li Weidong couldn't help but blush, and said awkwardly: "Children, don't talk nonsense, what do you know?"
"Tch, that's because you think I'm still young. In fact, I know everything." Shen Tian deliberately pouted her lips and was silent for a while. For some reason, her face with a little baby fat gradually turned red. Suddenly He leaned into Li Weidong's ear and said, "Brother, I have something to ask you. Can you promise me not to be angry?"
Seeing the mysterious and sneaky look of this girl, Li Weidong couldn't help but wonder, and said, "When have I ever been angry with you? Just ask whatever you want."
Shen Tian's face became redder and redder, water dripping from her face. She felt shy and said in a voice not much louder than a mosquito: "If, if Iwell, I think, mymine is still very young, you, you Will you dislike me?"
Li Weidong was confused when he heard this, and said: "What do you dislike? You are very young to begin with. You are my little sister. How can my brother dislike you?"
"No! I mean, I mean" Shen Tian was so embarrassed that she didn't even dare to look at Li Weidong. She bit her lip for a while before she mustered up the courage, pushed out her small chest, and said, "I mean My place is too small compared to Sister Weiwei and Sister Linlin. Brother, if you marry me as your wife, won't you like it"
I'll do it! Li Weidong sweated profusely, and finally understood that the little girl was referring to Mimi, and said quickly: "Who said I want to marry you, I am your brother, okay? Well, did the divination master tell you that? The bastard is talking nonsense"
The reason why he agreed to marry Shen Tian as his wife was purely to save her, and he had no choice but to agree in order to join the Dragon Clan. Li Weidong could swear that he had never had such a wretched and beastly thought. But Xiao Tiantian's beautiful big eyes suddenly widened, and she said: "You lied! This is not what the divination master told me, it was the oath you swore in the ice furnace! Even though I was dead at that time , but the soul is always in the body, but it can¡¯t speak or move, but I can hear every word you say clearly! You said you would marry me as your wife when I wake up, brother, do you want to default on your debt? ?!¡±
