Lanhuadis 25
The next day.
Because of the effect of the medicine and his weak body, Ning Ren slept until the evening.
His body is still very small, and it is unknown when he will grow up. Since he has not spread his wings yet, Grandma Laura cannot estimate how long it will take him to grow.
So Ning Ren still sleeps in his second brother's bedroom.
The evening was the time when the Lanhuadis people started to move around, so when he woke up, Carlos, who was sleeping next to him, also woke up.
The cub let out a soft cry and looked a little listless, not very energetic.
Carlos's pajamas were open, revealing a dark scar on the left side of his chest. He vaguely realized that the hidden scar that his elder sister had just helped suppress a few days ago was about to flare up again.
He coughed muffledly against his lips and raised his hand to feel the cub's temperature.
My body temperature is still a little hot. I'll take some medicine again when I eat later and it will be almost gone.
"Go down to eat?"
The cub nodded.
So Carlos changed his clothes, carried the cub's little house and went downstairs.
Ning Ren was dragged out by his second brother and felt that the castle was much quieter than before.
He sniffed around, but didn't smell any other familiar scent. "Eh?"
Carlos: "My eldest sister took them out to do some errands, and they should be back soon."
Cub: "Oh."
Carlos couldn't help himself. His eyes narrowed, and he reached through the window of the small house and tickled the cub's palm. "It's getting smarter and can understand."
The cub puffed out his chest and said, "Yeah!"
Today's breakfast is only for Carlos and Ning Ren.
Ning Ren's plate was small and very delicate. Today's food had fish added to it, which was super sweet and melted in his mouth. The City of Chaos was in the northernmost part, far away from the sea, and he had never eaten this kind of fish before.
Niemansen could naturally see that he was eating with relish.
The steward smiled and said, "This is Deep Sea Snow Frost. Eating this fish has a certain strengthening effect on the body, nourishes the stomach, and is easy to digest. It is especially suitable for cubs. Best of all, it's not expensive, only 30,000 gold coins per piece."
Carlos: "Well, ask Grandma Laura if she can add some to Xiaoqi's porridge in the future."
Nymanson: “Okay.”
No one noticed that the cub's chewing of the fish had slowed down.
Thirty thousand gold coins for one, cheap?
Were all the math knowledge he learned in the Chaos City Clan School fake?
In fact, the glass berries and other foods that Ning Ren ate in the City of Chaos were ridiculously expensive, and his mysophobic father never used inferior products.
The City of Chaos relies on the mithril mines, and its wealth is known throughout the region, but no one has told Ning Ren the specific prices of those things.
This led to the cub's belief that everyone in the City of Chaos was simple and frugal. After all, he and Asulin had lived in a stone house for a long time.
Thirty thousand gold coins, how many other things can you buy!
...Woo, can this money be turned into star stones in the live broadcast room?
Whenever Ning Ren hears the word "money", he thinks of the expensive prices of goods and can't help but worry.
The cub that was eating happily just now now had a look of bitterness and resentment on its face, as if it had a grudge against the fish. Carlos looked over with concern.
Sure enough, he was depressed.
With such rapid mood changes, even if Xiaoqi is not depressed, there must be something wrong with his psychology.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a noise outside the castle.
Wendoline returned with Dorothea and the other two.
The friendly exchanges she led with her younger brothers and sisters at the royal court went very smoothly.
Each family accepted their gifts.
Carlos: “How is it?”
Jia Mimi smiled and said, "It's fine, don't worry!"
He quickly rushed to the cubs who were eating, "Xiaoqi, wake up. I'm Sixth Brother. I'm probably the only one you haven't seen before."
"babble?"
No, I haven’t seen my third brother yet, right?
Jia Mimi's eyes lit up: "Cute, calling brother, the first word should be brother!"
Dorothea kicked him away and said, "If you say sister first, go back to school!"
Carmi: "I've already escaped, why would I bother with this little while?" He made a face at Dorothea, "Just call me brother, brother, brother, brother—"
"You're looking for death! It's my sister, sister, sister--!"
Carlos raised his hand and threw an empty plate, saying in a deep voice, "Go out and fight if you want to."
They both grabbed the empty plates at the same time, snorted at each other, but didn't really go out to fight. They just kept their mouths shut.
The cub covered his ears with a mask of pain.
When the fifth sister and the sixth brother are together, they are really noisy.
Carlos patted the cub's head to comfort him.
"How's Xiaoqi?"
Wendoline returned the Third Army's mobilization token to Carlos.
Carlos: "It's stable for now."
He was just feeling emotionally unstable, so he hesitated and didn't mention it.
Wen Duolin: "I will stay here for five more days at most, then I must go to the front line. Now that Xiao Qi is in stable condition, I will take care of your matter."
Carlos pursed his lips and asked, "How many days will it take to heal the hidden wound?"
Wendoline: "Three days."
Carlos thought for a moment and said, "Sister, tell me the method and I can do it myself. Xiaoqi needs my care, etc..."
"babble!"
Ning Ren stood up, raised his arms, frowned, and made a strong posture.
Second brother’s injury is serious. He doesn’t need constant care. Just make sure he doesn’t go hungry.
"You won't faint during the treatment," Wen Duolin said. "If you're worried, you can still look after Xiao Qi during the treatment. And for this treatment, Lao Si will accompany you throughout."
"Ah?" Xierting was surprised and immediately said, "Reject."
They hadn't gotten along six years ago, hadn't they? If it weren't for Xiao Qi's sake, he wouldn't have come back from Kong Chan and stayed at home for so many days.
He hated looking at this guy Carlos's face.
Carlos: "I refuse too."
Wen Duolin was puzzled: "I'm not discussing with you, I'm informing you."
Carlos & Xierting: "..."
Wen Duolin's face turned serious. "I didn't care before because I didn't think it was that serious yet. But now that Xiao Qi is here, the conflict between you two will seriously affect the harmonious atmosphere of our family and affect the mood of the cubs."
"We create a good social atmosphere for Xiaoqi outside, so naturally we can't relax at home either."
Yes, reconciliation is the most important thing.
Ning Ren nodded repeatedly, stopped eating, and listened attentively to Wen Duolin's words.
Dorothea and Carmi were already sitting on the chairs next to the cub, each of them happily eating a handful of sunflower seeds they had gotten from somewhere.
Jia Mimi also gave Ning Ren one.
The cub sniffed and found it was melon seeds. Well, after becoming smaller, melon seeds became unfamiliar to him.
He opened his mouth and bit it, blinking his eyes. Before making peace, he really wanted to know why his second and fourth brothers had a conflict.
He was extremely curious and wanted to know things that were not recorded in the history of the young mainland.
Big sister, please say more!
However, Wendoline just said this and went upstairs.
"I'm setting up in my room. I want to see you in ten minutes."
Carlos and Xierting had no chance to refuse, and the atmosphere between the two brothers was inexplicably tense. Finally, Carlos was the first to look away, calmly eating his meal.
He glanced at the cub chewing on the melon seeds, frowned, and pulled it out. "Melon seeds are not on the menu, you can't eat them."
There were teeth marks on the melon seeds. Ning Ren smacked his lips reluctantly. They were actually quite fragrant.
Carlos: "Who gave it to Xiaoqi?"
Dorothea quickly betrays her brother.
Jia Mimi said embarrassedly: "Second brother..."
Carlos: "You go back to school tomorrow."
Jia Mimi: "Second brother, you are upset and taking your anger out on others!"
Carlos: "I'm not angry."
He wiped the cub's mouth, put it in the bedroom of the small house, and carried the small house upstairs.
Jia Mimi glared and said, "Fourth brother, do you think he is unhappy?"
Xierting stared at Carlos's back, followed him, and said coldly, "You're an eyesore at home. You'd better go back to school."
Carmi: “???”
"Hey—you guys!"
They all went into Wendolen's room, and then the door was closed tightly.
Dorothea and Carmichael looked at each other, then slipped to the door of the room, put their ears close to it, and planned to eavesdrop.
-
Wendoline's room looked ordinary.
Only Ning Ren knew that after pressing a certain switch, this place would turn into a cute room with many dolls hidden inside.
He was placed next to Carlos, and even though he couldn't see, he kept sticking his head out, his curiosity almost overflowing.
"Tongtong, help me describe the situation outside in real time."
System: "Leave it to me."
However, Wen Duolin didn't waste any time and directly took out a round golden crystal.
"Second brother, take off your clothes."
Carlos untied the bow tie he had just put on, took off the gold chain and thimble, and took off his shirt. The terrifying black mass on his chest was suddenly exposed to the air.
Xierting's pupils shrank.
"This is--"
Ning Ren was anxious: What is it?
The system hesitated: "It looks like a mass of black healing wound, but, son, I feel that the healing wound is surging, very similar to the black energy of Tianfeng's clone."
Ning Ren couldn't help but worry.
No matter what kind of injury it is, if it has something to do with the crack in the sky, it will definitely not be good!
Wendulin handed the object in her hand to Carlos. "This is a crystal stone found in the tomb of the fallen king in our clan. After testing, it was found to be something called 'God's Blood' recorded in ancient times. It has the effect of removing evil spirits. It is the nemesis of the evil spirit in you that cannot be removed."
"Next, Fourth Brother, use the Devour skill to absorb the evil energy outside and control it. Be careful not to swallow it into your own body. I will transfer the energy inside the crystal into Carlos' body."
As long as there is a way to solve it, Ning Ren felt relieved.
But it has been six years since Lan Huadis’s sky crack appeared. How could my second brother still have such serious injuries caused by the erosion of evil spirits?
How did this injury come about?
Moreover, after being invaded by evil spirits, generally speaking, people will turn into monsters. My second brother felt that nothing was wrong.
Celtin: "I can help, sure. But I have a question, Carlos."
He raised his eyes, and the other person's calm face was reflected in his narrow eyes.
"You were the one who blocked the attack from Tianfeng's real body for me. Why don't you admit it? Is it because you feel sorry for Xiercheng, who didn't even leave a corpse in the end, so you are making up for your guilt on me?"
"Carlos, in these six years, have you ever regretted your decision?"
Carlos: "Are you sure you want to hear my answer?"
He looked directly at Xierting and said word by word: "No regrets."
Xierting suddenly smiled, his eyes reddened. He lowered his head and covered his face. When he looked up again, his expression was normal. "Sister, let's start."
Ning Ren was confused by what he heard.
Xiercheng, isn’t that his third brother?
Is his third brother dead? Probably not.
He didn't know what happened to his other brothers and sisters in the end, but he remembered his father saying that the third son of the Herbert family went into seclusion after the second sky crack ended and had not come out for decades.
However, it has been a long time since then, so it is possible that he has mixed up the memories.
The cub fell into deep thought, a little self-doubt.
So, was it that he remembered it wrong, or was it that his second brother and the others made a mistake?
