little spicy jiao

Chapter 104

"Jiao Jiao should wake up."

After Mo Jiaojiao finished these words carefully word by word, he took Dugu Jiu's hand and walked firmly towards the outside of the market step by step.

"Dugu Jiu, Jiao Jiao is actually... not a fool. When Jiao Jiao was born... he was very smart, and the owner of the valley also thinks that Jiao Jiao is very powerful, but every time Jiao Jiao...well, in a dream, he will forget a lot of things."

"So Jiaojiao is in a dream at the moment, with all the talents, wisdom and monster power, isn't it?" Dugu Jiu asked aloud.

"Yes." Mo Jiaojiao nodded her head affirmatively, and proudly said: "Jiajiao didn't... When you forget things, you will remember many things."

"Then how should Jiaojiao deal with this dream?" Dugu Jiuxin felt something, and looked up at the somewhat reddish sky.

"An eye for an eye." The child said this sentence childishly, but for some reason, it was completely determined without the weakness and timidity of a three-year-old child.

He led the man and walked in one direction, ignoring all the beautiful scenery along the way, and said firmly:

"The owner of the valley said that if someone bites Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao will bite back, that is, an eye for an eye. However, the monster who bullies Jiaojiao is too smelly, and Jiaojiao doesn't want to bite. But Jiaojiao has a way."

Dugu Jiu understood what she said, her long eyebrows stretched slightly, her deep and quiet eyes looked at the light that appeared in front of her, and there was a rare bit of relief in the depths of her black eyes.

The slender and tall figure carries the childish child with steady steps, and the black sleeves are raised like flowing clouds, embodying the indomitable momentum and the confidence in strategizing.

Going round and round, the child brought the person he cherishes the most now to the only Taoyuan in his life, Sunset Lake.

But it is not for memory and nostalgia, but for the end.

Mo Jiaojiao let go of the man's hand, staggered back and forth by the lake for a while, then slowly turned his head to look at Dugu Jiu, suddenly tilted his head, and called softly:

"Nine nine."

Dugu Jiu was slightly taken aback, raised his eyebrows, and asked in a deep voice, "Jiaojiao?"

"Jiao Jiao is awake. Look." The child put his hands on his hips, tilted his head, and narrowed his big eyes, as if he was playing a New Year's Eve doll.

"Jiujiu said that Jiaojiao wants to pursue by himself...freedom, dream, courage, and wants to live on his own, so that Jiaojiao will not lose, and Jiujiu and Guzhu can come back. So Jiaojiao remembered .”

"Jiao Jiao misses you."

Mo Jiaojiao withdrew his hand, pulled the corner of his mouth trying to laugh, then let go after a while, his big eyes glowed with crystal water, and said:

"When Jiao Jiao sees Elder Squirrel and the others, he knows...it's a fake. Elder Squirrel doesn't like Jiao Jiao skipping class, and he can't laugh. Elder Fox used to... like Yun Gao, but he wouldn't let Jiao Jiao see it. Yun Cake Jiao Jiao Very good, I won’t let Jiao Jiao do her homework.”

"The things in this dream are what Jiao Jiao wants but doesn't have. But it's not real. Jiujiu has been teaching Jiao Jiao, I know."

Dugu Jiu knelt down on one knee and took the child into his arms, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "It's not easy for Jiaojiao to wake up, so there's no need to say anything."

"No." The child stubbornly shook his head in the other's arms, "Jiujiu is the one who breaks the dream."

"Jiao Jiao used to feel that he shouldn't... live, because Jiao Jiao caused the death of the Valley Master and the elders, and it was Jiao Jiao who caused the disappearance of the Yinshen Valley, and maybe Jiujiu and the Suzerain would also. The substitute in this dream, I kept telling Jiao Jiao that I was a disaster. After the valley owner and the elders became stars, no one told Jiao Jiao that I could live."

"Shen Tuzi lives for the sake of the monster clan and the merger of the mainland, so I can't die, but no one says I should live. So Jiao Jiao always thinks that as long as he doesn't die, it's fine, and he can live to complete the task of Guzhu , that’s it.”

"So it's okay to be hurt, it's okay to be sad, and it's okay to be lonely."

The small child's voice gradually took on a soft crying tone, but she was holding back and didn't want to cry out.

"However, it was Jiujiu who said that if Jiaojiao is in pain, he should be cured, if he is unhappy, he should be angry, and if he is lonely, he should be with you. Jiujiu said that Jiaojiao is also qualified to say, I want to live."

"It's not about sacrificing yourself, it's not about being killed, you can resist, you can get up and say I want to live."

"When Jiao Jiao was born, it was Gu Zhu who saved me. The elders worked very hard to save me, so that Jiao Jiao survived. Then Jiu Jiu came, and Jiu Jiu saved me, so Jiao Jiao did not die."

Living ignorantly from beginning to end, children don't even understand why they want to live, they don't know that they can actually have what they want, and they can choose to live in peace and happiness.

"Now, Jiao Jiao understands."

Mo Jiaojiao stretched out his arms to hug the man's neck, warm tears rolled down continuously, but facing the quiet face that was close at hand, he slowly curled the corners of his mouth, and at the same time his round eyes also curved, the first Once... a real smile without a problem.

Even with tears streaming down his face, even with a sad and naive smile, this smile, which was 18 years late, still appeared on the three-year-old face after all.

It seems that while still smiling in my dreams, I really become a cute child who learned to smile at the age of three, and I really erased the blankness in my life where I couldn’t smile in the past ten years, and I really don’t even have a trace of regret. there is none left.

Dugu Jiu stared deeply at the lovable smiling face in front of him, and after a while, slowly leaned over, hugging the child tightly in his arms, pressing his chest against each other.

Mo Jiaojiao smiled and flattened her mouth again, tried her best not to cry anymore, the child's forehead rested on the man's neck, and the childish voice sounded slowly, repeating what Dugu Jiu had said to him... …

"Personal... troubles are actually... insignificant compared to our... vast world and endless... cultivation journeys. Therefore, there is nothing... you can't get past. You will find ...In fact, many people... have seen your ability, and they... will not hate you, but amazed..."

This is what Dugu Jiu said when the child lost his due dreams and courage and lived in doubt.

"Losing...is losing, you can't just think about...what you lost, think about...what is left of you. Jiaojiao and Dugujiu..."

We must always have confidence and expectations for life, and we must always believe that the short-term suffering will eventually pass. One day in the future, when he grows up, he will meet someone who cherishes him as much as Elder Guzhu. He is not alone. On this old continent.

"The scorching Hidden God Valley is gone, and there is no need for Sunset Lake."

A small voice rang close to the ears, and the rising flames gently licked the child's tear-stained cheeks.

The flames soared into the sky, covering the sky and covering the surroundings in the blink of an eye.

Dugu Jiu looked down at the child who was already sleeping in her arms, got up with the child in her arms, felt the wind under her feet, and walked towards the depths of the flames without any hesitation.

Behind him, the beautiful Yingxue Village and the Sunset Lake burst into flames, burning all the nightmares like a broken bamboo.

At the end of the dream, the child is wrapped in flames and sleeps in the safest embrace.

Rise from the ashes.

***

A dream that existed in Senhai Secret Realm for 18 years was reduced to ashes overnight.

Shen Siyuan, who had already found the seal of the Yaozu, raised his head and looked at the soaring flames in the sky, smiled slightly, and said, "Jiao Jiao really lived up to everyone's expectations."

The locust tree demon was casting spells to remove the restrictions around him. Hearing this, he looked at it together, but he said with pity: "To burn down his home with his own hands, Jiao Jiao must have summoned up great courage. That dream meant nothing to him. It's all too real."

"The only way to go." Shen Siyuan nodded in agreement, looked at the endless group of stone statues in front of him, stroked his chin and said, "Huaishu, tell me, after Baby Jiaojiao comes out, will he immediately come to unseal the demon clan?"

"Tch! How is it possible to come here now?" The locust tree demon pushed back his white hair, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said:

"Isn't Chongrong's storage bag gone? Where can he find clothes suitable for Baby Jiaojiao? From my point of view, making a simple grass skirt out of grass leaves is almost the same, as long as the upper body is going to be naked. My poor Jiao Jiao, he has never run around without his clothes on."

Shen Siyuan couldn't help laughing, and joked: "What are you afraid of? It's not shameful for a boy to be shirtless. There are no little girls here. But there are not less than ten thousand stone statues here, right? It's a bit more. Jiao Jiao Even if you come here tomorrow, it will take a lot of effort."

"That's right, it's really surprising that there are so many monsters left in the monster clan." The locust tree demon carefully removed the spell cast on the stone statue, and said: "If other secret realms are like this, the revival of the monster clan is just around the corner .”

"I just don't know, are there any monster race substitutes in other secret realms?" Shen Siyuan pondered: "Now that the dreamland of the Senhai Secret Realm has been destroyed, those substitutes have no place to hide, and they are bound to flee back here. Most of the substitutes may have died in the In the dream, what is left is just for Jiao Jiao to vent her anger."

"This is nature." The locust tree demon picked up a petite stone statue and moved it under a dense tree on the other side, so that the stone statue would not be exposed to the sun, and said disgustedly:

"Move them here. We broke the restriction just now. Exposure to the sun here is not good for their health. I don't know if these tree demons haven't drank water for tens of thousands of years, but don't wait to die of thirst. That's true. Disgraceful."

While the two were busy carrying the stone statue, Dugu Jiu, who was far away in the sky, had already left the collapsed dream with Mo Jiaojiao in his arms, and appeared on the other side of the Senhai Secret Realm.

The man was sitting on the ground in the lush woods, the black robe on his body was gone, only the same black single clothes.

Bie Hejian on the side obediently poked in the ground, pretending to be in a daze, but actually sneakily glanced into the man's arms.

In the broad embrace, Dugu Jiu's faded black robe was tightly wrapped around a petite and frail figure.

The small ball was curled up on the man's leg facing inward, the two thin white and slender arms were graceful and soft, and they were lying softly around the man's waist, and the soft fingers were grabbing the man's unlined clothes, persistently unwilling to let go.

And the black brocade was covered from the delicate white neck, and the slightly curly long hair hung like a waterfall, winding and hanging down to the man's legs.

Further up, there was a porcelain-white delicate side face half covered by long hair, her closed eyes with long and curly eyelashes, as if she was not very happy, and her bright red lips were unconsciously pursed.

Dugu Jiu lowered his head slightly, his deep eyes rested on the person in his arms, one hand wrapped around the slender waist, and the other hand slowly fastened the dark buttons for the person lying on his stomach, his eyes were solemn, but he was very peaceful.

When the clothes were tidied up, the man subconsciously wanted to lift him up with one hand on his buttocks, ready to find a place to stay at night.But in the next moment, he suddenly realized that he hugged it horizontally instead, and walked slowly into the depths of the dense forest.

The child he had guarded for a long time had transformed into a soft and beautiful young man overnight. Although he was still foolish and loved to act like a baby, he was no longer the helpless little cherry pepper.
