After some twists and turns, Ao Qing finally succeeded in putting the cub into the medicine soup.
The bubbling medicinal soup was not boiling hot as Feng Xiaojin had imagined; instead, it was as warm as bath water.
Originally, Feng Xiaojin wanted to swim and play in the water, but his father stopped him. In the end, he could only lie quietly on the edge of the pot to take a bath.
As she was soaking in the water, she felt a little sleepy, and soon Feng Xiaojin fell asleep on the edge.
Ao Qing moved the kid to the middle and secured him so that he wouldn't sink.
The cubs who were watching the fun soon pulled their dad out to play.
After an unknown amount of time, Feng Xiaojin finally woke up with a hazy look in his eyes.
Seeing that there was water all around him, he suddenly woke up and finally realized where he was.
"How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?" Ao Qing asked.
The color of the medicinal soup in the large wooden barrel has become much lighter, and it seems to be working well.
"Father..." Feng Xiaojin turned around and saw his father.
Hearing his father's question, Feng Xiaojin shook his head and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable. I feel full of strength!"
The little phoenix tried to show it to his father, but was stopped again.
"Don't move yet. Wait until the water has no color before coming out."
"good!"
The little phoenix stayed in the big wooden barrel for another half an hour. When the water turned from black to colorless, he could finally come out.
Of course, after soaking in the medicinal soup, he still had to soak in the Nirvana Pond for a day.
Unlike the mild medicinal properties of the soup, Feng Xiaojin only felt itchy and numb all over as soon as he entered the Nirvana Pool.
It was useless to scratch it with my claws, and it even made its body red.
"Daddy, are there ants in the water?" Feng Xiaojin scratched all over his body with his hands, tears welling up in his eyes, "I feel like there are ants biting me..."
It's itchy, painful and very uncomfortable.
Seeing that the cub's exposed skin was scratched red, Bai Fengyu squatted by the pool and looked at him.
"Just bear with it for a while, but don't use your hands to pinch them anymore, or the ants will crawl into your body through the scratches you made."
"Will...will it crawl in?!" Feng Xiaojin looked a little scared when he heard his father's words.
When I looked down and saw that my arm was already red from being scratched by myself, I suddenly started to panic.
"Daddy, I don't want to soak in the water anymore..." Feng Xiaojin looked at his daddy with tears in his eyes and stretched out his hands to him, wanting his daddy to carry him out.
"No, no, as long as Xiao Jin resists the urge to scratch the ants, they won't crawl in. Look at your arm again, is it still red?" Bai Fengyu laughed in his heart and quickly comforted him.
After hearing what his father said, Feng Xiaojin lowered his head again and found that he was really not popular anymore.
But he still didn't want to soak anymore, he wanted to get out.
Unfortunately, both my dad and my father shook their heads and refused.
On the other hand, the other three cubs felt very uncomfortable after hearing the whole conversation between their father and his friends.
"I saw father boiling that black water again..." Ao Xiaomo said in a low voice.
"What should I do?" The little dragon was a little scared, "Will I be the next one?"
"Why don't we just hide away secretly..."
Before Feng Xiaohong finished speaking, they heard their father's voice.
"Xiao Hong, come here for a moment."
When Feng Xiaohong heard her father calling her name, her heart trembled and her expression suddenly became nervous.
"Father...Father is calling me, what should I do? I don't want to soak in that dark water." Feng Xiaohong was so scared that her eyes turned red.
The little red-haired phoenix was hesitating in the same place, not daring to go over, and her legs were weak.
"Xiao Hong, your father is calling you, why don't you go over?" Old Phoenix came over and asked.
"Auntie Fat Bird..."
"What's wrong? Who bullied you?" The old phoenix noticed the red eyes of the red-haired little phoenix and asked quickly.
"Can I...can I not soak in that black water?" Feng Xiaohong said in a low voice with red eyes.
"Of course not." Old Phoenix said without thinking, but seeing the fear in the eyes of the cubs, he thought about it and felt that he had to solve the problem from the root.
"Normally, when dragon and phoenix cubs hatch from their shells, they look like little dragons and little phoenixes, just like the little fire dragon you played with before..." the old phoenix explained to them.
"Then...then are we abnormal?" The little dragon subconsciously raised his hand and touched the little dragon horn on his forehead.
"Well... you could say that." The old phoenix paused, nodded, and continued, "Normally, all the cubs that have just hatched have inherited memories..."
"What is inherited memory?" Ao Xiaomo suddenly asked.
Old Phoenix didn't care when he was interrupted again. "Inherited memories... To put it simply, you haven't learned anything but you know a lot of things, such as how to defeat the enemy in one move during a battle, and what treasures there are in the world."
"Wow - is it so amazing?" The little dragon's eyes lit up as he listened.
But when he thought about the fact that they didn't seem to have that inherited memory, the little dragon cub got a little anxious, "Why don't we have it?"
"According to your father, when you were still in the egg, several humans dripped your blood to claim you as their master, which caused you to break out of the shell early."
"Damn it! Those humans are so bad!" Anger was burning in the little dragon's eyes, and he was obviously very angry.
The other two kids were also very angry at this time.
"So, the purpose of soaking you in that dark water is to restore you to normal so that you can freely switch between your original form and human form."
"Really?" Feng Xiaohong's heart was already wavering.
"real."
"Then... then I'll go find my father. Goodbye, Aunt Fat Bird." After saying that, Feng Xiaohong ran towards the vine house.
The two little dragons also ran over.
"Father!"
Ao Qing, who had his back to the door, heard the excited voices of the little phoenix cubs. He turned around and found that the three cubs were running in with excitement on their faces.
"Come here and prepare some medicinal soup."
"Okay!" Feng Xiaohong said excitedly, her face full of anticipation.
"Father! After Hong Hong finishes her bath, will it be our turn?"
Xiao Longzai and Ao Xiaomo looked up at the same time, both staring at their father eagerly.
"Don't worry, you two. Wait a little longer."
No rush?
No!
They were very anxious. If possible, the two little dragon cubs even wanted to queue up before Feng Xiaohong to take a dip.
"Then how long do we have to wait? Can a few days be ok?" Ao Xiaomo thought for a while and asked.
But before the two little dragons could get a response from their father, Auntie Fatty came in and said, "It's time for the girls to take a bath. The boys should go out."
The father and his two sons who were pushed out of the door saw that the vines had completely blocked the door after they came out.
"Father..."
"Wait for father to find the spiritual plants he needs."
After getting the answer, the little dragons wanted to ask more, but unfortunately their father had walked far away, so the two little dragons had no choice but to run over to catch up.
After soaking in the medicinal soup, Feng Xiaohong also entered the Nirvana Pool.
At this time, Feng Xiaojin had already entered the state. He was floating upright in the water with his eyes closed, and the feather mark between his eyebrows was faintly visible.
Two days later, two young voices were heard in Phoenix Valley.
Above the Nirvana Pond, the golden and red phoenixes are happily enjoying the feeling of flying.
Looking up at their friends who had turned into little phoenixes, Xiao Longzai and Ao Xiaomo had some envy in their eyes.
Feng Xiaojin, who had turned back into his original form, flew excitedly in the sky, gliding along the grass and flying straight up.
Even the timid and shy Feng Xiaohong couldn't help it and didn't come down until they were tired of flying.
After flying down, the two little phoenixes turned back into human cubs.
However, the phoenix feathers at the corners of their eyes and on their foreheads have disappeared, and they now look like ordinary human cubs.
The two little dragons begged their father for as long as the two little phoenixes flew in the sky.
However, they did not expect that their father not only did not agree to their request, but instead said that they would have to wait another hundred years.
The little dragon boy had a hunch that his father was lying to them and was already crying from anger.
When the two little phoenixes came down from the sky, the little dragon was hugging his father's neck and burying his head in his arms, refusing to raise his head.
Ao Xiaomo, sitting at his father's feet with his back to his father, was looking down and silently watching the big-tailed squirrel eat.
"Yanyan, what's wrong with you?"
Xiaojin, the phoenix that had retained its wings, flew beside his father and poked the little dragon cub who was burying his head and refusing to see anyone.
The little dragon cub snorted after being poked and ignored him.
"Daddy, what's wrong with Yanyan?" Feng Xiaojin scratched the back of his head, somewhat confused.
"Uh... your father..."
However, the word "father" has now become the trigger point for the little dragon cub.
"Father is a bad guy! I will never pay attention to him again!" "A bad guy." Ao Xiaomo, who was sitting at Bai Fengyu's feet, suddenly spoke out.
Bai Fengyu: “…”
Ao·The Big Bad·Qing: "..."
The old phoenix watched the excitement from the sidelines and didn't mind making trouble. Finally, seeing that the two uncles were really at a loss, she spoke up to give them some advice.
"Just explain the reason to them. It's inevitable that you will feel disappointed when your friends have it but you don't."
After saying this, Old Phoenix left, leaving some space for the family.
After hearing Feng Yan's words, Ao Qing asked him for help, but Bai Fengyu gave him a helpless look.
In the end, Ao Qing could only walk over and explain to the kids in a dry voice.
After a long time, after listening to his father's explanation, the little dragon boy's anger subsided, but he still felt aggrieved.
"Do we really have to wait a hundred years?" The little dragon pursed his lips, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Jinjin and Honghong were able to turn back into little phoenixes, and became super powerful. Only he and Heihei were still as weak as human cubs.
If he encounters a big monster in the future, won’t he just be beaten?
"It's father's fault. I should have rescued you earlier." Ao Qing had never coaxed a cub before, so his face looked a little unnatural at this moment.
"Forget it," the little dragon shook his head, "This has nothing to do with my father. It's all the fault of those hateful humans."
Finally, the father and his two sons reconciled.
Ao Qing heaved a sigh of relief after finally coaxing the two little dragons.
The matter of the two little phoenixes has been resolved. They have stayed in Phoenix Valley for quite a long time, and it is time to leave.
A month later, the father and his six sons plus the old phoenix left Phoenix Valley and came to a human inhabited city.
Although they stopped to rest several times during the flight, they were still a little tired.
So we found an inn to rest.
After a good rest, the cubs pestered their father and daddy to go for a walk on the street the next day.
While shopping with the Taoist couple and the children, Ao Qing accidentally heard the words "demon tribe" and "sneak attack", which made him feel moved.
Before he could think about anything, Ao Qing suddenly heard that familiar voice in his mind.
'Host, I'm back!'
'Come out.'
"Wait...wait! Can I come out when there's no one around?"
After not hearing a response from the host for a long time, the system just took it as the default.
'Host, please be aware that the war between humans and demons may start earlier than expected. Host, please remember to prepare early. Your dragon pill problem must be solved as soon as possible.'
Ao Qing did not respond to the system's words.
As Ao Qing's partner, Bai Fengyu was naturally the first to know about the appearance of the little thing claiming to be a system.
Turning his head to look at Ao Qing, Bai Fengyu looked inquiringly.
"It's okay." Ao Qing shook his head.
