A dragon raised at birth

"Run, don't come here, there are ghosts here!"

Without thinking, the young man yelled outside the house almost as soon as he heard the sound. He knew he couldn't escape, but he didn't want the people outside the house to die in vain.

"Little devil, you are courting death!"

Seeing that the firewood-cutter boy was like this, the evil spirit flew into a rage. He waved his claws to make him completely quiet, but the moment he just raised his hand, a frost-white sword energy came from outside the house, After smashing through the wooden door like a bamboo, he also cut off the arms of the evil spirit.

The blood-stained arm fell to the ground and hit the boy's feet. The boy stared dumbfounded at the arm with ice spreading from the fracture, and his world view was shattered.

"who?"

The face of the evil ghost who lost his arm suddenly became cautious. He looked solemnly at the broken door, and then, a tall and straight humanoid creature with silver hair appeared in front of his eyes.

"what are you?"

Seeing the existence that came with the wind and snow at night, the evil spirit couldn't help but take a few steps back, because what appeared in front of him was a man with fine blue ice scales on his face and inhuman vertical pupils. , a majestic humanoid monster.This is a monster that has the general appearance of a human being, but it cannot be called a human being at all.

"Which ghost king made you a miscellaneous soldier?"

With the snowstorm falling, the dragonborn did not answer the evil spirit's question, but asked him.

"No matter what you are, you must die here for me today!"

Although this is an existence that has never been seen before, the evil spirit is not afraid, and even wants to taste the flesh and blood of the strange man in front of him.

"There's no way to communicate, forget it!"

Seeing the evil spirit who didn't answer his question, the man shook his head helplessly, stretched out his palm and swiped it down lightly.

Zheng~

There seemed to be a sound of a sword in the wooden house filled with a strong smell of blood, but the young woodcutter at the side could clearly see that the sword in the hand of this strange existence had not been unsheathed at all, but the monster that had made him helpless just now started from scratch. To the feet, one divided into two.

Chapter 254 Rolling in all directions

The cold ice spread on the body of the evil ghost that was divided into two, and the messy bits and pieces scattered all over the ground. The thicker smell surged in the wooden house, and the young man wanted to vomit, but unfortunately his stomach was empty and there was nothing to vomit.

Of course, now is not the time to be disgusted. The young woodcutter looked in horror at the man who beheaded an immortal ghost without even pulling out the sword in his waist, his eyes filled with fear.

Facing an ogre, he still had the courage to swing the hatchet in his hand, but facing this man full of inhuman features, he felt desperate

But if he had a chance to slash with a knife, he would still pick it up and slash it, but his reason told him very clearly that swinging a knife would be futile. Such despair made the young man feel suffocated.

"You are very good!"

It's a pity that the man who can kill monsters with just one blow of a knife didn't attack the young man. He looked at the young man with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

Because he used to be as weak and weak as this young man, but he was not sure whether he had the courage to swing a knife against ghosts when he was young.

"You won't kill me?"

The woodcutter was keenly aware of the calmness in the tone of this monster-like man, and there was no greed and tyranny like a ghost in it.

"Why did you kill you?" Alai looked at the boy strangely, "Are you a ghost?"

"No, I'm not." The boy shook his head quickly.

"Then what good will it do me to kill you?"

"There is no benefit!" The boy's tone was firm without hesitation.

"So, why do you have such a strange idea?" Alai looked at the boy.

"Aren't you a ghost?" The young man tentatively asked cautiously. In his world view, apart from humans, there are only evil ghosts who eat humans as intelligent creatures.

"I'm not a ghost, I'm a descendant of an ice dragon!" Alai replied seriously.

"What is a dragon?" The young man's eyes were a little dazed, but also a little curious, which was curiosity about unknown things.

"A very powerful creature, they will give power to suitable people, and let people have the power to kill ghosts!"

"Just like you, Uncle?" The boy became more courageous, and tentatively called out a rather intimate title, but Alai didn't care about such a title.

"Yes, that's right, just like me, don't look at me now, but more than ten years ago, I was just an ordinary person!"

"Uncle, are you human?" The boy was quite shocked by such an answer.

"Ah."

"That……"

"Little guy, are you going to ask me in such an environment? Don't you feel uncomfortable? You don't feel uncomfortable, but I do. "

Alai glanced at the messy ground of the wooden house. Although he has been on the battlefield and seen what is called a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​bones, this is a better environment, who would refuse.

"Oh, sorry, uncle, I'll clean it up now!"

Glancing at the messy ground that made him vomit again, the boy obediently prepared to take the initiative to clean it up. Since the uncle didn't intend to kill him, it meant that he was taken from the hands of the ghost by this uncle. If he was saved, he owed the uncle his life.

"Kids just stay by the side, this kind of thing can be avoided as much as possible."

Alai stopped the diligent young man, and with a wave of his hand, the ice spread on the floor of the wooden house, freezing the two corpses of evil spirits that were still slightly wriggling and trying to heal, and completely shattered them. Then, with a wave of his hand, a wave A gust of wind swept the debris all over the floor out of the house.

"Wow!"

The young man who witnessed this scene with his own eyes exclaimed, his eyes shone brightly, full of envy.He was almost eaten by an evil ghost just now, and his heart was full of desire for power at this time. He didn't want to experience the feeling of being powerless when his life was threatened. He didn't want to experience it again.

"sit down!"

Glancing at the filthy but now spotless ground, Alai greeted the young man, he didn't pay much attention, as long as it was clean.

"Uncle, you just said that you used to be a human?" The boy couldn't wait to sit by the campfire and asked Alai.

"I'm human now!" Alai corrected the boy.

"But your appearance..."

"What's wrong with my appearance? Remember, appearance is never a criterion for judging whether a person is human or not.

No matter what it is, if you identify with your own human identity and restrain yourself according to human moral standards, you will always be human.

Isn't it like some people are more human in shape than me?But what they did, even evil ghosts would be ashamed of themselves. No matter how human-like such a person is, he is still a ghost! "

"Uncle, I think you are talking about the village head of our village. Every day, he is thinking about how to get benefits from us villagers, trying his best to deduct the benefits that originally belonged to the villagers.

Even if I cut so much firewood in the mountains, I have to pay half of the money for the sale to him. He obviously didn't put in any effort, but he asked me to pay him for nothing.Privately in our village, he is called a skin-splitting ghost! "

"Well, this kind of person who unscrupulously infringes on the interests of others, and even takes their lives, in order to satisfy his own needs is no different from a ghost!"

The young man who went into the mountains to cut firewood and earn meager wages chatted enthusiastically with the monster uncle who had never met before but saved his life. The more he chatted, the more energetic he felt that this uncle was like his confidant. No matter what he said, this uncle can pick up the words.

But the young man with little knowledge didn't know that no matter what he was talking about, the other party could pick up the conversation, and it made him feel that his vision was greatly improved and his mood was happy.

"How old are you?"

At this time, the two discussed the boy's own age, which was actually the information that Alai used the boy to inquire about this land.

"I'm 14 years old this year." The boy didn't have any precautions against Alai at this time.

In fact, this is also normal. How could a young man who is only fourteen years old be able to cope with a middle-aged uncle who is at least twice his age and has a lot of experience, even if this uncle was very dull at first.

"14 years old, at this age we should still be in school, should still be in junior high school." Alai looked at the sky, with emotion in his eyes.

"Going to school? What is going to school?" The young man was a little confused, he didn't even have the concept of it.

"Just to learn knowledge!"

"What's the use of knowledge?" The boy was still confused.

"Learning knowledge that you have never seen or mastered can broaden your horizons and increase your upper limit of life."

Faced with such an ignorant young woodcutter, Alai was very patient, because for a while, he had taken the initiative to become a teacher in the academy in order to avoid the struggle between the major lords.

"For example, if you don't study, then you can only inherit your father's mantle in your whole life. What does your father do, and you will probably only be able to do something in the future.

Then if you learn knowledge, your future will be full of infinite possibilities. You can become a teacher imparting knowledge, a general guarding one side, or a swordsman like me! "

"Can I become uncle like you?" The boy was excited immediately, his eyes were full of longing and yearning for a better future, like twinkling stars.

"of course can."

"Then I want to go to school! Uncle, can I go to school with you?"

"It's too far away, I'm afraid you won't be able to go." Alai smiled and shook his head.

"How could this be?" The starlight in the boy's eyes dimmed instantly.

The most desperate thing for people in the dark is to be able to see the light.The arrival of Alai was like a light in life to the teenager. For the first time, he knew what kind of life a child should have.

It's not to help relieve the pressure on parents, to feed the brothers and sisters who are waiting to be fed, to go into the cold winter forest alone with a hatchet, and to pick up some wood in exchange for a meager fee.

"Don't be discouraged, you should be able to go to school near your home in a short time." Alai patted him on the shoulder with some amusement on the young man whose eyes were instantly lost and his body was full of decadence.

"But there is no uncle near my house, the academy you mentioned!"

"It will be built soon!"

"Uncle, how do you know?"

"Because I'm here."

After Alai left this sentence meaningfully, no matter how much the boy asked, he would not reveal more, but these words undoubtedly filled the boy's heart with expectations.

The next day, when the heavy snow stopped, the young woodcutter was ready to go down the mountain. Naturally, he invited this strange-looking uncle to his home.

"Aren't you afraid that I will scare your parents like this?"

"Don't be afraid, uncle, you are so gentle, as long as my parents know you a little bit, they will definitely accept you!"

"Gentle? Haha!" Zhao Juvenile's evaluation of him made Alai suddenly burst into laughter. Ever since he became a Deadpool, he has always carried a fierce and indifferent temperament that should not be approached by strangers, but now the boy's words, Undoubtedly affirmed his practice during this time.

"Go down the mountain, I'll just stay on this mountain!"

"Uncle, what are you doing staying on this mountain? There is nothing on this mountain?"

"Didn't you just meet an evil ghost on this mountain? I have to find out if there are other ghosts nearby. The purpose of my coming here is to clean up the ghosts in this area!"

"Oh, come on, uncle! You must be very careful. I heard from my grandfather that ghosts are very vicious and cunning!"

"I know, by the way, after a while, you may see some very special things, but don't be afraid, just stay at home with your family." Seemingly remembering something, Alai reminded juvenile.

"What special thing?" The boy was a little puzzled.

"I can't tell for a while, anyway, you will definitely see it after a while, and you will understand when the time comes."

No matter how the young man pestered him, Alai didn't speak anymore, but disappeared from the young man's eyes with the snowflakes falling again from the sky, just as suddenly as when he appeared.

"What is it?"

Alai's words made the heart of the firewood chopping boy tickle, as if a cat had been gently scratching it, making the boy toss and turn, making it difficult to fall asleep even when he returned home and slept on the familiar bed.

However, when he was waking up at night, when he passed the simple window, and accidentally turned his head to look out of the window, he was suddenly stunned, and the whole person froze in place...

Chapter 255 The Source of All Evil

The sky where snow should have fallen was now clear and cloudless, and the bright moon was hanging high at the highest point in the sky, but there was no moonlight falling on the ground, because those moonlights were all suspended in the sky one after another. The huge monster was covered.

Yes, monsters, for the young woodcutters who got up at night, those UFOs in the air with flames spraying from their tails and shining with metallic luster all over their bodies under the moonlight were monsters.

As a mountain village boy in the feudal era, seeing such a scene suddenly, it is not surprising that he knelt on the ground in panic at this moment, worshiping those flying machines as the driving of gods.

But at this moment, the boy clearly remembered what the uncle he met in the mountains not long ago said. This monster-like uncle had already reminded him that he would see things beyond his comprehension in the near future. , let him not panic and not be afraid.

As a result, the sense of panic in the boy's heart that had already convinced Alai gradually faded away, and his eyes showed excitement and curiosity. He stood by the window and looked at the huge flying team in the sky that was even covered by the moonlight.

Then he discovered that in the flying team covering the sky and the sun, there were not only metal monsters whose buttocks could spit out flames, but also villains who could flap their wings. They seemed to be the same dragon descendants as Uncle Alai.

"Ah Zhen, it's so late, what are you doing when you're not sleeping?" At this moment, a somewhat confused voice sounded beside his ears. The young man who was so absorbed didn't notice the movement of his family. When he turned his head, he saw sleepy eyes Sleepy, mother with disheveled hair seems to be waking up at night too.

"Mom, I..."

The boy Ah Zhen was stunned for a while, glanced at the unimaginable scene in the sky, and then looked at his mother who was walking towards him, and immediately frantically tried to stop his mother from approaching. He could accept such unimaginable facts outside, but his Without any psychological preparation, his mother suddenly saw the flying team in the sky, and he couldn't even imagine what it would be like.

"What's the matter with you? What are you doing in the middle of the night?" Seeing her son staying awake in the middle of the night, the ordinary peasant woman stood by the window with a strange expression on her face. She couldn't help showing worry on her face. Stretching out his hand, he wanted to touch his son's forehead to see if he was sick somewhere.

"don't want……"

But she didn't expect that the closer she got to her son, the more obvious the frightened look on her face became. When she walked to the window, she just reached out to touch her son's head, but from the corner of her eye she inadvertently Leaving it out of the window, the woman turned her head and was stunned on the spot.

"what--"
