Lanhuadis 07

After Ning Ren woke up, the first thing he did was touch the "blind stick" that he had placed beside the bed before going to bed, but found nothing.

Ning Ren:?

He felt around carefully but still felt nothing. He got up from the bed and walked out, but before he took a step, he fell to the soft floor of the little house.

Ning Ren: ? ?

When did his bed become so high!

Did the bed grow while he slept, or did he shrink?

After falling to the ground, he rubbed his legs. As he was rubbing, the cub suddenly froze. He discovered another horrible thing: where were his clothes?!

"Tongtong, what's going on around here?"

The system tried to explain, but the restriction program had already returned to its usual intensity. It seemed to have also realized that the child now had immediate guardians and was no longer in a dangerous area, so the system didn't need a detailed explanation.

It grunted for a long time and only managed four words: "It's safe now, not in the tree hole," and then it obediently acted as its own guide, waiting for Ah Zai to find his second brother sleeping soundly in the bed.

Although the system said it was safe, the cub stood up in a hurry, looked around, and kept hiding until its back hit the wall.

His intuition told him that something was wrong here.

He stood on tiptoe, pressing his palms and back tightly against the wall. He maintained this position for a long time before slowly relaxing and moving his ears slightly.

There doesn't seem to be any danger.

Could it be that he was blown away by the strong wind again?

Damn it! Forget about the cane! How come even his clothes were blown away!

What a shameless wind!

He had finally picked those petals, and his mouth was sore from chewing the holes. But now that things had come to this, he decided to think of a solution.

Ning Ren groped his way to the bedside, plucked the cotton from the bed, and quickly pulled two balls together, one for the top and one for the bottom. After making sure they were firm, he asked the system to activate navigation and guidance mode.

He wants to go home.

This newly completed one-bedroom apartment was placed at the head of Carlos' bed, very close to Carlos' pillow and head.

The cub stepped out of the door of the luxurious cotton one-bedroom apartment, tripped over his own hair, and fell onto the soft and cold quilt with a grunt.

After a while, he rubbed his forehead, groped in front of him with his hands, and slowly continued to move forward.

The cub felt that he had walked a long way (the distance between two pillows on the bed) and then climbed up a large hill (the edge of another pillow), and then stepped on a pile of unidentified objects that were a bit prickly (Carlos's hair).

Carlos slowly opened his eyes, his bloodshot pupils showing the displeasure of being awakened.

When he glanced over, he saw a little man trying to step on his hair.

“…”

The muscles that were already tense in preparation for standing up tensed even more.

Xiaoqi woke up, came out of the small bedroom, and came to his side.

Carlos held his breath for some unknown reason.

I don't dare to move.

The previous accident has left him with an indelible psychological shadow.

Ning Ren stepped on it for a while, made sure it was safe, and continued to crawl forward. He put one hand on Carlos' cheek, then suddenly retracted his hand, as if frightened by the touch of this warm living creature.

The cub took a step back cautiously and vigilantly, adjusted its direction, and this time reached Carlos's shoulder. It climbed up with great effort, then stood up unsteadily and walked from the right chest to the left chest.

Ning Ren exclaimed.

Suddenly he stopped and lay on the ground listening to the strange "dong, dong, dong" sound.

The sound was getting faster and faster.

"..." The hairs on his body stood up slightly, and he continued to move forward, not wanting to stay in this dangerous place for long. He climbed over the next hill (Carlos' other shoulder), stepped on the edge of the bed, and slid down along the sheets that hung to the ground.

Perfect drift landing.

Ning Ren struck a handsome pose, clapped his hands and continued walking forward.

Carlos sat up from the bed and slowly calmed his breathing. He didn't dare to say hello, for fear of scaring Xiao Qi -

After all, the "Handbook on Keeping the Little Prince Alive" says that excessive fright can cause fainting.

However, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the cub step on an almost invisible thread on the ground.

Thousands of tiny pinholes instantly appeared on the surrounding walls, and silver threads that were almost invisible to the naked eye whizzed out, almost cutting the air apart.

Carlos: “!!!”

He instantly appeared behind the cub and spread his wings. The black silk wings cut the silver thread into three sections.

Carlos breathed a sigh of relief.

This was one of the birthday gifts his father gave him when he was a child. It could help him develop his reaction ability. Later, when he grew up, he no longer needed it, so he kept it here as a souvenir.

But then, a big hole suddenly appeared on the ground.

Carlos fell instantly.

...It’s too early!

I forgot that this gift was given by my father, the king, and my mother, the queen! When I met Xiao Qi, I lost my composure. I dodged my father's silver thread, but fell into the trap set by my mother for the second time!

The pit restricted Carlos's mental strength, and he fell heavily into the living room on the first floor.

There was a loud bang.

"Huh?" Ning Ren turned his head and scratched the back of his head.

I seemed to hear a faint sound.

The system wiped its face: "..."

How should I put it? Why don't we go back to the forest? Although there are ferocious beasts, poisonous snakes and man-eating plants there, it is safer than here.

Ning Ren: "Tongtong, can you find my eggshell?" The eggshell seemed to have been blown away as well.

The system thought to itself, "The eggshell you are looking for is in your stomach and has been eaten."

"Baby, why don't we just not go to the City of Chaos?"

Ning Ren: "I want to go!"

System: "But..."

[Restriction program has been initiated]

There was no way he could see the chaotic city in his heart anymore, and Ah Zai had to discover it himself.

Carlos, who had fallen, quickly returned to his feet. He pushed open the door and saw the cub still there, feeling somewhat relieved. The young man with bloodshot eyes pursed his lips, but eventually walked over to the cub, squatted down, and whispered, "Xiao Qi, I am..."

"ah!"

The cub screamed and ran left and right like a headless fly. Finally, it decided to run to the left, pulled up a corner of the sheet, and hid behind it.

Carlos said in a slightly anxious tone: "Xiao Qi!"

The sheets were shaking slightly.

The palm-sized cub stared with lifeless eyes wide open in fear, somewhere in the void, as if looking for the direction of the sound.

Carlos tried to slow down his voice: "Xiaoqi, I am the second brother, and you are mom and dad's youngest child. Can you... understand?" It stands to reason that two or three days after the cubs are born, although they cannot speak yet, they can roughly perceive good and evil through tone and voice.

Second brother?

Ning Ren hid deeper.

When did his stinky dad give him a brother!

"You were sick, I found you in the forest and brought you home. This is our home," Carlos reached out and grabbed the eggshell on the table in his hand and placed it close to the cub.

"I have no ill intentions. I am your biological brother, and you are the youngest in the family."

After a while, the initial shock faded away, and Ning Ren reacted belatedly.

Yes, he is in a new body now, just like the time when he went to the City of Chaos to find his father when he was three years old, he will also have relatives in this body.

Is that really his brother outside?

Three-year-old A Ren was very easy to fool. He could be tricked out from behind a trash can with just a piece of candy. Six-year-old A Ren had grown more capable and was not so easy to fool anymore.

The system felt that this stalemate was familiar, and the illusion disappeared in an instant.

Carlos waited patiently for a long time. The cub behind the sheet stopped shaking, but there was still no movement.

He thought about it, then pierced the tip of his left ring finger. A drop of bright red blood instantly appeared from the pale fingertip.

The Lanhuadis have a meridian on their left ring finger that is connected to their heart. They use their mental power to draw blood from here, and the blood they draw is the blood of the heart that contains energy.

The heart blood of blood relatives and elders is to the younger ones what catnip is to kittens – an irresistible scent.

This is undoubtedly a good way if a cub is disobedient or if the parents want to increase the intimacy between the parent and the child.

Although he is only Xiaoqi's brother and cannot compare to his father and mother, the fragrance of his blood should be able to help Xiaoqi overcome his fear and come out.

Carlos lowered his voice, his bloodshot eyes softened, and his tone was filled with temptation and allure: "Xiao Qi, Second Brother has something delicious here."

Gulp~

He heard the cub swallow.

Carlos moved closer, his finger stopping two small steps away from the cub, "Come on."

“…”

A foot popped out from behind the bed sheet, and then half of the cub's face popped out, looking sneaky.

As early as the moment the blood beads emerged, Ning Ren smelled an irresistible fragrance at the tip of his nose. This fragrance came from deep in his blood, making him feel itchy. Every pore was urging him to get out quickly. He even wanted to roll over on the spot.

Smells so good, smells so good!!

The fragrance made his heart blossom with joy and his soul float away!

Ning Ren told himself not to be defeated by food, and walked cautiously and firmly towards the place where the fragrance came from.

He sniffed around like a puppy, and finally found Carlos's ring finger. He hugged it, bit it with his toothless mouth, and swallowed the blood droplets into his stomach bit by bit.

So sweet! So warm! So fragrant!

This was almost the best food he had ever eaten!

After eating, I felt like I was stepping on clouds.

A faint red light flashed on the unfurled wings on the cub's back. This drop of heart's blood was making up for the weakness of his body, even if it was just a drop of water into the sea.

A drunken smile appeared on his face, and he laughed.

Carlos couldn't help but laugh, and touched the cub's head with the index finger of his other hand.

Ning Ren did not react violently. He was the quickest to eat people. He didn't know what he had experienced at the hands of his second brother. He instantly identified with his second brother in this body... Well, his second brother was so nice. He gave him food to eat.

The cub was obviously not satisfied with the drop of blood. He sucked on the cut on Carlos' fingertip, trying to suck out more delicious food.

Carlos let him go and only withdrew his hand when Ning Ren was tired of sucking.

Ning Ren burped slightly, then gestured to Carlos a little embarrassedly: Although you are very nice, I still have to go back to find Dad. Thank you for the food, I enjoyed it very much.

Then he smiled a huge, toothless grin.

So cute.

Carlos looked at his dancing brother and smiled.

Xiaoqi looks very happy. He is happy just by being fed some heart blood. He feels so satisfied.

"Your fifth sister has received the news and will probably be back tomorrow. She will definitely be happier to see you." Carlos didn't know if the cub could understand him, so he just talked about his family members. "The eldest sister will be a while away. Your sixth brother is still in military school and won't be back until the holidays. The fourth brother..."

Carlos frowned and said, "Try not to associate with your fourth brother. He is emotionally unstable."

Ning Ren counted according to his words.

Xiaoqi is his name, and it seems to be his ranking as well.

He has six older brothers and sisters, but why didn’t the second brother say anything about the third brother?

Then he came to his senses and waved his hands quickly: "Ahhhhhhh", no, no, he was leaving and would not stay here.

Carlos: "Xiao Qi is so cute."

Ning Ren: “…”

He stamped his feet a little anxiously.

Carlos: "Ah, even cuter."

Who can resist a palm-sized, delicate and well-behaved cub?

Ning Ren raised his right index finger and wrote in the air.

Carlos: "Is Xiao Qi drawing a heart?"

The cub froze.

Ning Ren: “…………”

He was no longer afraid. After gesturing for a while, he suddenly felt a little dizzy.

The ground beneath my feet suddenly began to shake, as if the world was spinning.

The fragrant and warm drink made him dazed.

His body fell limply to the right, into the palm of his second brother's hand. Before he fell asleep, he was still thinking that he was definitely angry.

Carlos stroked the cub's hair and said, "Although my brother's blood is good for you, you are too greedy. Get some more sleep and stop making trouble, little one."

He put the cub back into the little house.

This time I finally fell into a sound sleep.

-

The next night.

A super cool, Barbie pink carriage came to a rapid stop, and a cute girl in a puffy skirt got out.

"Her Highness Dorothea!"

"Welcome home, Your Highness!"

She pulled her braids back like a lady, and her pair of red eyes, which were lighter than blood, looked at the eerie castle. Suddenly, she let out a strange laugh: "Oh hehehe~!" Then she kicked her feet and ran towards the gate!

The hard stone slabs beneath her feet cracked instantly, and at the same time she let out a loud and passionate call.

"Your Highness, the Stuttering King, is back!"

"Xiao Qi, come on, give your sister a kiss, kiss, kiss--!"

"Ooo ...

The old butler Niemansen's friendly greeting froze on his face, and then he suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, "Fifth Prince, no!"
