Chapter 51
Chapter 51
The fact that Nijiu secretly raised spirit beasts was exposed.
As Nijiu expected, the king was furious.He was furious because Nijiu disobeyed him, and locked Nijiu into the basement of the palace, making him reflect on his mistakes.
After three days of confinement without water and food, Nijiu, who fainted due to hunger, was finally released and sent back to her room.
In the past three days, his bedroom has completely changed its appearance.
The king thought that someone secretly encouraged Nijiu to raise dangerous large spirit beasts in the palace, so he sent someone to check his room to search for evidence of correspondence between Nijiu and others.
They didn't find any letters, and there were no suspicious emails in Neijiu's mind.
But the king was still suspicious. He asked the craftsmen to seal the windows of Nijiu's room with steel plates, so that Nijiu's bedroom was completely isolated from the outside world.He also confiscated Nijiu's optical brain and did not allow him to step out of the room.
Nijiu was worried about the safety of the beast, so he quickly grabbed his familiar servant and asked, "Where is the spirit beast? Is the spirit beast safe now?"
The servant came to deliver Nijiu's lunch, and he was afraid that talking too much would offend the king, so he could only stammer and put Nijiu's lunch on the table.
The servant didn't say a word, he retreated silently, not forgetting to lock the door.
Nijiu was locked in the room by the king. Afterwards, no matter it was teaching or fighting practice, there were special personnel to watch over Nijiu's every move.
Nijiu was imprisoned for four full months.
It was not until the spring of the following year that the king released Nijiu.
After the door opened, Nijiu saw the king standing outside the door.He squeezed out a kind smile and bowed to Nijiu: "Good morning, Nijiu. How are you doing?"
Nijiu ignored the king.
He didn't even say good morning, but squeezed his way from the King and went straight into the back garden.
Ambergris rose can only bloom for ten years, and it will never wither after blooming, and it is always spring in four seasons.Moreover, the fragrance of ambergris rose is stronger than that of other flowers, able to overwhelm the scent of any flower.
Therefore, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, the back garden of the palace is shrouded in a rich fragrance.
However, when Nijiu came outside the garden, he didn't smell the ambergris rose.
It's not that the smell has diminished, but it has completely disappeared, and Nijiu can't smell any ambergris rose.He was a little puzzled, ran out of the palace along the marble steps, and trotted towards the back garden.
Through the promenade with vines, Neito saw the back garden.
The garden in spring is full of greenery, the plants stretch out their green leaves one after another, the heavy buds press on the branches, and the morning dew reflects the sunlight.
Nijiu walked along the path paved with cobblestones towards the rose garden, he sniffed again, but he still didn't smell the intoxicating aroma of ambergris rose.
A bad premonition surrounded Nejito.
Nijiu walked to the garden that was originally full of ambergris roses, and smelled the smell of roses.
What appeared in front of Nijito was a field of beautifully colored roses.Flowers are dotted behind the leaves, swaying side to side with the gentle spring breeze.
All the ambergris roses here have been eradicated.
At this time, the king also came to the garden.He paced up to Nijiu, a group of servants and palace guards followed closely behind him, making a rustling sound as he walked.
Nijiu looked at the rose garden in front of him and asked, "Where is that spirit beast?"
The king also looked at the rose bush, with a smug expression on his face involuntarily.
"Run away," said the king.
Nijiu didn't answer, he stared at the rose garden quietly, and asked again: "Is its injury healed?"
The king didn't expect Nijiu's mood to be so peaceful, so he gave him a sideways look in surprise.
Then, the king felt a little displeased—Nijiu's emotions were not in line with his expectations, which made him very disturbed, worried that the child would get out of his control.
"I asked the gardener to shovel off all the ambergris roses." The king did not answer Nijiu's question, "the thorns of ambergris roses are very sharp, too dangerous."
He added: "That beast is not a qualified pet. After you left, it attacked the guards of the palace, killing five people and injuring more than a dozen. No guard dared to approach it. After a few days of letting it go, it died. ran away."
The king gave Nijiu a cold look, observing his expression.
"Don't feel bad, it's just an inhuman animal." The king squeezed out a loving smile, "Remember to tell me before you get a pet next time, okay?"
Nijiu kept a cold face and did not answer the king's words.
Nijiu didn't speak, and the servants didn't dare to say anything, and the surrounding fell into an awkward silence.
The king's smile froze on his face.
He straightened up stiffly, turned and walked towards the palace.
He said to Nijiu: "I'm going to deal with business. After dinner, come to my study."
Nijiu's indifferent attitude angered the king.
In the evening of that day, after Nijiu walked into the study, the king took down the leather whip hanging on the wall and slapped Nijiu on the back.
The king was worried that the whip would leave bruises on Nijiu's body, so he didn't dare to beat him too hard. After whipping Nijiu a few times, he turned to whipping Nijiu's palm with a thinner whip.
The marks on the palms are not easy to be found, and the king is more unscrupulous in fighting.
Ten minutes later, Nijito returned to the bedroom.
There was a tingling pain in the palms of his hands, and his fingers were shaking from the pain.
Nijiu's back from being whipped was already swollen, he touched his back carefully, and felt a few swollen welts, his skin was hot.
Nijiu gasped in pain: "It hurts..."
He lay on the bed, straightening his back in pain to avoid pulling on the wound.However, this posture could not relieve the pain in his back. He lay on the bed cautiously, worried that the wound would be injured again.
He struggled painfully in bed for four hours, and it was not until midnight that he finally felt sleepy.
Just when Nijiu was about to fall asleep, he heard a man's voice.
Someone sat down beside Nijiu's bed, and a cold hand reached into the hem of Nijiu's shirt, moved up to his back, and gently stroked the wound on Nijiu's back.
The touch of this person did not bring pain to Nijiu, and the cold spiritual power covered his back, relieving the pain of the welt.
Nejito woke up from a hazy sleep.
He opened his mouth and said a word with a dry voice: "Who are you?"
After many years, Nijiu has long forgotten the man's voice, only remembering that his voice was very low, a little hoarse, and it sounded very moving.
The man didn't answer Nijiu's question, he leaned into his ear and said softly, "I'll come back to you."
After he finished saying this, Nijiu was once again overwhelmed by sleepiness.
Just when Nijiu was about to fall asleep in a daze, he felt someone pat him on the back.
Linsen's voice sounded beside Nijiu's ear: "It's time to get up."
This voice was very similar to the voice in memory, Nijiu opened her painful eyes, stared at Linsen in front of her in a trance, lost her mind.
Linsen waved his hand in front of Nijiu: "Can you hear me?"
Nijiu came back to his senses, and suddenly struggled out of sleepiness.He felt a little ashamed, coughed lightly, and looked towards the porthole: "Are you here? Have I slept for a long time?"
"It's only a few hours." Linsen shook his head, "We haven't reached the M110 galaxy, it's another planet."
Their starship landed on a planet.Bright beige light fell through the windows into the cabin, illuminating the dim cabin.
Nijito rubbed her eyes and stood up from her seat: "Why did you stop here?—"
He saw the scenery outside the window clearly, and stopped abruptly.
Nijiu walked to the driver's window without saying a word. This window is more than ten meters long, and you can have a panoramic view of the outside scene.
Nijiu first saw a thick and colorful sunset.
The sky in the direction of the sunset was dyed a beautiful pink-purple, and the setting sun was like molten gold, splashed in the sky, shining brilliantly.
They were stopping on a cliff by the sea, with the boundless sea in front of them.
Under the reflection of the setting sun, the sea water presents a light golden color, and the sea surface is sparkling.
Linsen opened the main hatch.
With a creak, the outdoor breeze blows into the cabin, bringing a strong fragrance.
It smelled like a rich, strong amber scent, mixed with fruity and woody aromas, blowing warmly into the cabin and lingering around Neito.
Nijiu always felt that this smell was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had smelled it before.
Linsen was standing next to the hatch at this time, he was facing the outside, from Nijiu's perspective, only his mandible and earlobes could be seen.
Lin Sen said: "One day earlier, happy birthday."
Nijiu was dizzy from sleep, he glanced at Ryan and Jack beside him in confusion: "What do you mean?"
After a while, he realized that Lin Sen's words were addressed to himself.
Linsen didn't answer Nijiu's question, he jumped down from the hatch, his voice mixed in the breeze: "Come out, it's safe outside."
Nijiu walked to the hatch. He raised his head and saw a vast grassland extending to the snow-capped mountains thousands of meters away.Among the verdant green grass, there are countless palm-sized white flowers dotted, and the tender flower branches are swaying in the wind.
Those are ambergris roses all over the mountains and plains.
Ambergris rose has high requirements on the growing environment, and the growing season is too long, so many gardeners are unwilling to spend energy on planting.Five or six years ago, the empire's ambergris roses had all been extinct, not even a single seed remained.
The wind blew across the flower field, and the roll, carrying the fragrance of ambergris rose, floated lightly to Nijiu's side.
He stood outside the hatch in a daze, looking at the endless grassland.
Linsen was standing in front of Nijiu, his metal mask was shrouded in the setting sun, reflecting the rich sunset glow in the sky and the vast flower field in front of him.
Linsen pointed to the grass under his feet, and said, "I gave it to you."
Nijiu followed Linsen's fingers and looked down at the ground.
He thought that Linsen was talking about the Ambergris Rose plant at his feet, so he nodded: "Really? Thank you! I want to bring one back to Emperor Star, it just fits in a flowerpot."
Lin Sen: "..."
He was referring to the planet.
Nijiu didn't notice Linsen's gaze at all, he just sat down by the cliff by himself.
"Thank you." Nijito said, "I haven't seen such a perfect sunset for a long time."
Nijiu is telling the truth.
Both Emperor Star and Pearl Star are heavily polluted by industry. Regardless of whether the weather is sunny or cloudy, the sky is always dark in the evening, and the pollution haze obscures the setting sun, making it impossible to see the setting sun clearly.
"Do you remember when you first met me?"
Of course Nijiu remembered the frightening scene of the night when he and Linsen first met, he replied with affirmative tone: "Last month, the day you transferred to another school. I was watching a horror movie and it was raining heavily outside."
Lin Sen shook his head.
"Eleven years ago, when you were six years old."
Nijiu: "???"
Why doesn't he remember that he knew a demon clan when he was a child?
Seeing Nijiu's puzzled expression, Lin Sen sighed softly.
"Humans have really poor memory." Lin Sen said, taking off the mask on his face.
Nijiu finally saw his true face.
Linsen's face has three-dimensional features, handsome but gloomy, a pair of dark golden eyes sunken deep in the shadow of browbones, like gloomy believers in ancient oil paintings.
Nijiu was very impressed with this face.
"Um, uh—"
He opened his mouth wide, and after a long while, he only uttered a few strange syllables.
After a long time, Nijiu finally found the way to produce vocal cords, and said tremblingly, "Are you... dumb?"
Lin Sen nodded, and put on the mask again: "That game can't adjust the character's facial features by itself, I originally wanted to change the face."
Lin Sen said: "Do you remember the beast that was raised in the garden? That was me."
Nijiu nodded silently, he was still in shock, unable to respond to Linsen's words.
He looked at the sunset, and it took him a long time to finally say: "This world is too magical."
Nijiu stared at Wanxia for a long time, then suddenly realized.
"Aren't you a demon, why did you turn into a spirit beast and run to the back garden of the palace?"
Linsen walked to Mijiu and sat beside him on the edge of the cliff.
"I was injured in the battle of 'Ghost Glacier' ten years ago." Linsen considered every word carefully, "I was stabbed in the right hand. In order to escape the pursuit of other demons, I turned into a spirit beast and ran to the galaxy."
He said: "It was a coincidence that I appeared in the palace of the human emperor star. I just wanted to find a place to hide and recuperate, but I didn't expect to meet you."
Nijiu nodded and said with emotion: "A wonderful fate."
Linsen and Mijiu sat side by side by the cliff, at Mijiu's feet, there were huge waves crashing against the coast.The waves hit the reef, making a loud noise, which startled the birds on the beach.
Nijiu looked at Linsen's smooth long hair, and suddenly thought of a serious problem.
In the game, he had unscrupulously rua the head, paws and ears of the white wolf of the underworld, and even buried his face in the neck of the white wolf of the underworld.
In other words, Nijiu has touched Sen's hair countless times, stroked his fingers, kneaded his ears...
Bury his face into Lin Sen's neck.
Nijiu: "..."
Big problem.
Nijiu felt that his brain was about to stop functioning, and his face suddenly became hot, even a little hot to the touch.
Linsen noticed Nijiu's blush cheeks, he turned his head and looked at Nijiu's face.
Nijiu immediately turned his eyes away to avoid looking at him.
Linsen said, "Your face looks very red."
"too hot."
"Will it? I think the temperature here is very suitable for human—"
"too hot!"
Jack and Ryan sat in the cockpit, and Ryan let out a long sigh of relief looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window.
"It's beautiful, this place."
Jack agrees with Ryan.
He looked at the sunset in the distance, showing a deeply emotional expression: "I never thought that I would be lucky enough to see the beauty of this planet in my lifetime, and it is not in vain."
Ryan scratched his ears: "Why do you say that, is it that exaggerated?"
"I'm not exaggerating." Jack shook his head and explained to the ignorant Ryan, "This planet is located on the edge of the Magellanic Cloud galaxy. It was once a sacred place for human beings to live, and it was called 'Eden'."
Jack said: "For humans and other creatures from the ancient earth, the gravity, climate, seasons and length of day and night here are all perfectly matched to the ancient earth."
Ryan nodded: "It can be seen, and the air is very clean."
"Not only that," Jack said, "Eden has far more fresh water storage than the ancient Earth and the Emperor Star, and the vegetation coverage is also higher than the Emperor Star. It is like spring all year round, the scenery is beautiful, and there are no large animals, even in the era of Homo sapiens. human beings can survive here.”
"Since this planet is so perfect, why didn't we migrate here directly from the earth, but painstakingly created the Emperor Star?"
"Because this is the Magellanic Cloud galaxy, humans are likely to be ambushed by other races during the migration." Jack paused, and then said, "Also, Eden was captured by the Demon King ten years ago."
"It really is him... Is this place suitable for demons to live in?"
"No." Jack shook his head, "For the demons, the gas density here is too low, and the gravity is much smaller than that of their planet."
"Then why did he take such pains to occupy this place?"
"Who knows what the devil is thinking."
Jack leaned back in his chair, quietly looking at the sunset in the distance: "Eden has no advantages except that it is suitable for human habitation. It does not occupy a favorable geographical location, and its energy storage is not particularly large—at least it is better than that of the demons." The parent star is dozens of times less."
Ryan also slid down and lay down on the seat: "I heard that before the demon king captured Magellan Cloud, there were constant wars here."
"Yes. The Magellanic cloud is divided up by several intelligent races. Their technological level, number of people, and national defense forces are all roughly the same. Conflicts often break out for territory."
Jack got up and walked to the hatch, and said, "So before the devil invaded the Magellan cloud, Eden was a poisonous apple that could only be seen but not touched. There are constant wars here, and human beings cannot live peacefully here."
He looked out of the hatch and said to himself, "Where did these two go?"
Ryan looked at the ambergris rose outside and asked, "What kind of flower is that? It smells so good. I've never smelled it before."
"This is Ambergris Rose. Ambergris Rose is a species unique to the Milky Way. I don't know why it appears here. It may be from the demon race."
Jack looked at the endless fields of ambergris roses and said, "It takes ten years for ambergris roses to bloom. It seems that they planted the flowers when they first captured Eden."
"I can't tell, the demons are quite romantic."
