Volume 2 Dragon Bird Chapter 58 I Should Have Hugged Her Then
The surroundings are strange and colorful.
A feeling of weightlessness came over me.
But this feeling only lasted for a few breaths.
Then the surrounding scenery changed drastically, and Lu Qingshan's eyes lit up.
This is an extremely bright world.
The fresh air blows towards you, and the rich vitality fills the whole world, which is magnificent and beautiful.
Because of the abundant vitality, the surrounding plants grow exceptionally tall.
Old vines as thick as buckets coiled around ancient trees that were so thick that four or five people could hug them. Even the wild grass and flowers were so lush that they were as tall as a person.
Compared with the dark and gloomy Lingyuan, which makes people shudder with fear, this place is like a paradise on earth, a beautiful divine land.
"It's really random teleportation." Lu Qingshan murmured.
All the plants around where they landed looked as if they were new, and there was no sign of any human destruction.
But the Dragon Demon King, Jiao Yan, Xue Zhuyong and Mo Yan had clearly fallen into the Lingyuan not long ago. If they were teleported to a fixed point, this place could not be so clean, and there could not be no trace left at all.
Then, the first problem he had to solve was to find Xue Zhuyong and Mo Yan.
Fortunately, Xue Zhuyong and Mo Yan were holding hands tightly when they fell into the Lingyuan, so according to common sense, the two should have landed in the same place.
Lu Qingshan just hoped that the place where he, Xue Zhuyong and Mo Yan fell were not too far away from each other.
He looked around and found that he was currently halfway up a mountain.
"Let's go to a higher place first and see what the situation is here." Lu Qingshan said to Qin Yitian.
"Okay." Qin Yitian seconded.
…
A few hours ago.
A fiery red magma world, the scene looks like doomsday.
The ground was cracked, and the cracks were intertwined and dense like earthworms.
Through these cracks, you can see the red magma flowing slowly.
In the back, there is a huge crater that is constantly emitting gray smoke.
And in this desolate place, on an open space, lay a young man with flames all over his body, and next to him stood a middle-aged male cultivator.
It was Mo Yan and Xue Zhuyong.
On Mo Yan's body, the red and blue strange fires were clearly separated, each occupying half of his body.
The Red Lotus Strange Fire and the Cold Spirit Strange Fire were fighting each other with Mo Yan's body as the battlefield.
Xue Zhuyong stood aside with an extremely ugly expression on his face.
He had already released his spiritual sense to examine Mo Yan's entire body.
Mo Yan's condition was much worse than it looked, because not only the surface of his body, but even his inside was filled with cold spirit fire and red lotus fire.
Under the burning of the two strange fires, his meridians had begun to shrink, and the spiritual power within his dantian had also turned into nothingness under the high temperature of the two strange fires.
This is the aftermath of rashly fusing the strange fire.
Even though Mo Yan had a burning body and possessed an affinity for strange fire that was unmatched by ordinary people , he was unable to withstand the violent power of the two strange fires coming into contact during the foundation-building stage.
So in just a moment, the two kinds of strange fire were completely out of control.
Mo Yan, whose spiritual power had been completely burned, had no ability to control the two strange fires again and stop them from fighting.
Because of the pain, Mo Yan's facial muscles kept twitching.
Xue Zhuyong was extremely anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
Although the two strange fires were competing with each other at this time, they came from the same source, from Mo Yan's body, so they were temporarily in a very strange state of balance.
At this time, if external forces are involved, it will break this balance and cause the strange fire in Mo Yan's body to explode directly. Mo Yan will also be turned into ashes the moment the power of the strange fire explodes.
Suddenly, Mo Yan's fingers trembled slightly.
Xue Zhuyong, who had been paying attention to Mo Yan, was startled.
After a few breaths, Mo Yan's tightly closed eyes fluttered and slowly opened.
Xue Zhuyong's nervous face came into Mo Yan's sight.
There was some doubt in Mo Yan's eyes. He did not ask about the current situation, but asked with a complicated expression: "Senior...who is it?"
Xue Zhuyong was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
He knew very well that Mo Yan's question was not about his name.
What Mo Yan cares about is his identity.
"Senior, you risked your life to save me and went to Lingyuan to do this for me... There should be only my mother in the world, but Senior behaved like this... Ahem..." Mo Yan took a breath in great discomfort, and then said, "Now that I am in this state, Senior, please treat this as my last wish and give me a definite answer, okay?"
"I...want to know the truth."
Mo Yan's voice was very weak. His current condition was like a dying lamp, and he could die at any time.
Facing Mo Yan's burning gaze, Xue Zhuyong's face turned pale and blue. After a moment, he finally sighed and said softly, "Then let me tell you a story, a story about me."
"I'm all ears." Mo Yan said calmly.
"Since I was very young, I have never seen my father. I have always depended on my mother." Xue Zhuyong's face showed a look of reminiscence. "My mother worked very hard to support me. During the day, she had to help in the restaurant kitchen in exchange for some meager remuneration, but she was worried about leaving me alone at home, so she brought me to the restaurant kitchen.
Because I had no father and my mother was extremely beautiful, the people in the kitchen, the men often teased my mother intentionally or unintentionally, and the women gossiped about her all the time, saying in front of me that I was born by my mother's affair with a strange man, and that I was a bastard, so I had no father.
My mother also knew all these things and she was very angry, but for the meager reward, she could only endure it all silently.
At that time, I often found that late at night, my mother would curl up in the corner of the bed, crying silently.
I was ignorant and had no idea how much my mother had given up in order to give birth to me. Instead, I secretly blamed her in my heart because of the gossip and the ridicule of others.
So, when I found my mother crying, I pretended to be asleep and turned a deaf ear to her.
Finally, one winter day, my mother, who had been getting thinner and thinner due to overwork, did not go to the restaurant to help in the kitchen, which was unusual.
She just sat by the bed, sitting quietly, I don’t know what she was thinking. After sitting for a long time, she trembled and reached out her hand and held mine. Xue Zhuyong’s face showed an extremely painful expression, and his voice began to choke. “Her hands were small and rough, but very warm. She stared at me with a very complicated look, with attachment, pain, and many things I couldn’t understand. After a long time, my mother suddenly said to me, no matter what, I must live well. "
"Then she gave me some change and told me to go out and buy something delicious."
"I didn't think much about it. I took the change and ran out of the house and ran to the street. But I never thought that would be the last time I saw my mother." Xue Zhuyong was already in tears. "What I hated most at that time was the lonely night and the sight of my mother curled up on the bed crying silently. But now I think I should have hugged her at that time."
Xue Zhuyong looked at Mo Yan's face, which was already emitting a dead aura, and said softly, "Later, I understood a truth. For the person you cherish, don't be stingy with your hugs when you still have the chance to hug her. What's the point of regretting it when there is no chance anymore?"
"So, when I found out that I had a son," Xue Zhuyong calmed down and spoke as if it had nothing to do with him, "even though I had never met him before, I didn't hesitate at all. I would save him even if it cost me my life. Because, I... don't want to regret it a second time."
