Monster Beast Contract: Wealthy Martyr

Chapter 3

I don't know how long I slept, the chill in my whole body gradually disappeared, replaced by a kind of soft cold power which filled my whole body.Xinzi opened her eyes, and the scenery in front of her was twisted strangely, the misty sky, the swaying and dreamy temple, and the dancing tree shadows, just like looking at the world through water.

"water……"

Xin Zi raised her hand in front of her eyes, whose hand is this?Pink and tender like a baby, fleshy, and there are five small dimples on it when it is stretched out.A small fish flicked its red tail from between its tiny fingers and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"fish……"

Xinzi suddenly opened her eyes wide, and now she really wakes up.Ah, she exclaimed, but a row of bubbles spit out from her mouth, curling up to the surface of the water.Xinzi hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, she must protect her last breath of air and swim ashore.

Before it was too late, a dark surge suddenly appeared at the bottom of the water, surging towards Xinzi, dragging her feet tightly, rushing towards the dark corridor hidden in the crevice of sand and stones.She only felt her eyes go black and she fainted.

The crisp sound of birds rang in my ears again, Xinzi opened her jerky eyelids, and the first thing she saw in the haze was a round cobblestone, on which stood a pair of pointed animal skin boots, the toes of which were almost pointing to her. face.The owner of the boots leaned down to look at her feelingly. It turned out to be a dark-skinned young man with pieces of cloth wrapped around his body, and there was no intact place.His messy hair was covered with sweat on his face, and his appearance was blurry because of the backlight.On the contrary, a piece of blood-soaked crimson jade tied around the neck is impressive.

Xinzi struggled to get up from the ground, but found that her hands and feet were bound by something, and then realized that she was wrapped in a thick broken fishing net.Stretch out your small hand in the net and hold it. It is as tender as you can see in the water. The meat is as tender as a small soup dumpling just out of the cage.It seems that this is what Bing Ji said about recasting the body. After removing the cancerous part, she turned into a five-year-old girl.

As a newborn, Xinzi took a deep breath, different from her previous memories, the air was filled with the sweetness of plants.Forget about the situation at this time, she is now in the mood of a newborn baby, very curious.The kindling seed given by Bing Ji had disappeared into her body, but she could feel the incredible power contained in the depths of this world full of gurgling streams and trees.

"Are you a fish?" The boy's figure covered the sunlight in front of him.

"So what?" Xin Zi replied half-jokingly.

"Take it home to eat." The boy pulled the fishing net and grinned. Through the net cable, Xinzi only saw his two white canine teeth.

Ignoring the common sense that fish can't speak, Xinzi was thrown onto the shoulders of the young man just like that, and trotted all the way home.Kicking open the courtyard gate that was already leaning crookedly on the fence, the boy threw his heart that had been shattered to the ground, and shouted angrily towards the thatched cottage:

"Grandpa! I caught a big fish today!"

Hearing random noises in the room suddenly, a grey-haired old man ran out in a panic with a walking stick. It looked like he had been hungry for a long time. When he saw a pile of fishing nets on the ground, his pupils turned green and his throat was deep. There was a sound of swallowing saliva.

The grandfather and grandson rushed forward and frantically tore at the fishing net. With their unremitting efforts, a tearful little face finally appeared in the net.The small pink mouth is like a newly blooming peach blossom in spring, the big eyes are the brightest stars in the summer night, the long eyelashes are like fluttering and trembling butterflies in late autumn, and the skin is full of snow, but there are deep marks drawn by the rough net rope.

The two stared blankly at the mermaid in front of them.Xinzi also stared at the two of them. When she was on the boy's back just now, she kept looking at the surrounding environment. This is a village in the mountains, sparsely populated.However, there are occasional corners and half eaves of glazed tiles exposed in the dense forest.The houses in the whole village seem to be scattered, but they are scattered and built in a regular way. Such a thoughtful layout makes this small place far less innocent and harmless than it seems.When you first arrive, it is the first choice to find a place to stay.A trace of confusion flashed through his eyes.

"Hmm, grandpa, my brother bullied me." She desperately squeezed out two tears, although Long Xinzi was never a spoiled woman, her acting skills of pretending to be innocent are still top-notch.

The old man was called "Grandpa", and the hunger for several days disappeared immediately.He turned over and held the crutch in his right hand, and swept across the ground.It hit the boy's calf mercilessly, and the speed of the shot was so fast that he didn't look like an old man at all.The boy couldn't stand for a moment, fell to the ground, and got out of the way.

"Stinky boy, what's going on here?" The old man opened his eyes angrily, pointed to Xinzi who was crying hard on the ground, and blew his beard all over his head.

"She...she said she was a fish." The kid squatted on the ground and hugged his head, and replied tremblingly, for a moment he couldn't figure out why Baiyu suddenly turned into a little girl.

"So what if she says she's a fish? I can tell she's a pink and tender little girl!"

These two people are truly grandparents, and their intelligence is obviously on the same level.Can fish talk?There are three black lines hanging from the back of the purple heart.All he wanted was to get rid of the embarrassing situation of being entangled in the net and lying in the mud as soon as possible.

"Grandpa, I'm cold and have no clothes to wear." The crisp voice sounded again.

"What, I don't even have any clothes. If I didn't have you, brat, I'd be too quick!" The old man thumped his crutches, picked up the stones on the ground, and moved forward.Picking up Ruowu's hair without waiting for a plea, he patted him all over his head in an instant.While taking pictures, he kept peeking at Xinzi with those sneaky eyes, with the word "satisfied" all over his face.I thought to myself, Ruo Wu, Ruo Wu, my old bones have not dragged you to grow up in vain. Knowing that our family is poor, no girl will marry here voluntarily, so I tied her home while the baby was still young. This is really smart. !Bear with the typed package, wait for grandpa to give you good medicine.

"Grandpa, I..."

"If you make any more noise, I will still beat you, why don't you hurry up and find clothes for the little girl!"

The brat was beaten badly, so he had no choice but to crawl back to the room. After a while, he took out a cloth bag from the room and placed it carefully beside Xinzi, just about to raise his head to take a look.Grandpa gave him another chestnut and dragged him out of the courtyard.

Watching the two of them walk out of the yard, Xinzi broke free from the fishing net. At first, she was worried that what the brat found for her was the same rags as his.He opened the cloth bag and saw that there was a set of men's gray robe neatly stacked inside. Although it was rough, it was also clean.Wearing it on the body, it fits just right, and the waist-length long hair is simply tied up behind the head, how refreshing and refreshing it is.

Pushing open the courtyard door, Xin Zi found the old and the young, and the two were squatting back to back under the tree and drawing circles.The old man saw Xinzi first, and immediately showed a kind smile on his face: "Little girl, which family are you from? How did you jump into Ruowu's fishing net?"

Xinzi is very relieved that she is no longer a fish. "I was washed here by the water, and I can't remember anything about it before." While speaking, he deliberately exposed the scars on his sleeves from being strangled by fishing nets in front of the two of them.Seeing the guilty eyes of the two deepened a bit, he hurriedly added: "Now there is no place to live."

In fact, this injury is nothing compared to the frostbite and bone shattering when I met Bing Ji, but Bing Ji can even rebuild her body, and those horrific scars are gone.

Sure enough, Grandpa's eyes immediately became as if a knife was about to gouge flesh from the face of that boy named Ruowu.Apologizing to Xinzi with a smile: "I'm sorry, little girl, Ruowu in my family has bad eyesight. If you don't dislike it, stay with us first, and we will help you find a family member slowly." But I couldn't help but Whispering, stay here, stay here, it’s better to stay here and add a few more people.Hehehehe, grandpa's eyes are as deep as the wrinkles on his forehead.

"it is good."

Although from just now, grandpa's eyes have been terrified, if she really sees the imaginary images that are not suitable for children in grandpa's mind now, she won't immediately pick off the skin of this young man.But she agreed faster than Grandpa asked, anyway, it was just a place to stay, and she couldn't cause any trouble.

After some calculations, Xinzi remembered to take a look at the boy named Ruowu in front of her. Through the black hair covered in strands of water on his face, Xinzi saw a face with distinct features, with sword eyebrows inserted into the temples, The bridge of the nose is high and raised.The thin lips are tightly pressed together. Although the face is covered by hair, and the mud is still sticking to the cheeks, there is still an immature heroism, but the eye-catching facial features are restrained because of those peculiar eyes. sharpened.I saw that one of his eyes was full of white and lifeless, and the other was bright and dazzling amber, but it was dimmed because of Xin Zi's gaze.

If he didn't notice that his eyes were fixed on his face for a long time, he immediately retreated into the shade of the tree, hiding his face in the shadow.

Xinzi regretted secretly, but pretended to just glance at it casually, and started chatting with grandpa as if nothing had happened.During the conversation with her grandfather, Zi learned that this continent is really Xuantian, where magical power and force rule the world, but the village she lives in is actually a hidden family named "Water".Relying on the natural spirituality of the region as a barrier, it has been cut off from the outside world for many years.It seems that to truly understand this new world, we need to spend more energy.

Grandpa Shui and Xinzi ignored Ruowu who squatted aside silently, the two chatted happily, Xinzi simply sat in the old man's arms, and flicked the old man's goatee happily.Until the sun turned to the west, the stomachs of the three made dry sounds at the same time.

"I'm hungry!" Xinzi didn't have the consciousness to be a guest at all.

"If not, go kill the fish." Grandpa Shui said cheerfully.

"But grandpa..." Ruowu looked at Xinzi and swallowed, "There are no fish today."

"Uh..." Grandpa Shui looked at Xinzi in his arms and felt a little embarrassed. Usually, it's fine if he doesn't have to bear it, but now there is an extra beautiful child bride living in the family. If he is not grown up, he will be hungry What should I do if I run away?
No way, this family is so poor?Did you eat your last meal or not?Xin Zi jumped out of her grandfather's arms, grabbed the fishing net on the ground and shouted to Ruo Wu: "Xiao Wu, go catch fish."
