Chapter 16 - The Mysterious Little Boy (Part 2)

(Nine Spirits, a once-in-a-lifetime golden python.

At first, the young Kellen the Great knew that it was a python that had grown up with her, with astonishing speed and extraordinary water and fire powers.

When he was young, he did not know that on this magical land there was a special snake spirit beast called the Nine Spirit Emperor Python.

He had never heard of what was called the guardian of the true God sitting down.

However, since then, the Nine Spirits have been the best companions of Kellen the great, and it would be hard to imagine how Kellen the Great could have survived the cataclysm of the Beast Abyss without its protection.

There is plenty of light in the forest, and although it looks lush, it is a good place where light and shade interweave and light and shade are in order. Soon, a sound of trickling water came from the depths of the forest. Water Elara followed closely, and only then did she realize that the pompadour had led her into a grove of peach blossoms. In the peach grove, colorful vines tightly encircle the peach trees, and strange, multicolored vine flowers flicker with a lively light on the vines. The golden pollen, floating gently in the air and drifting freely, adds a touch of strangeness to the vines!

A group of little golden bees buzz their wings in the flower beds, and a few colorful butterflies dance quietly on the petals. A babbling brook quietly runs through the entire peach grove. A path inlaid with pebbles appeared before the two children.

The pont-headed child in front was now silent, but the water Elara behind was overjoyed! I didn't expect that from the sky it was just a small island, but in the woods, it was indeed a fairyland! "Shouwei Lingshan" probably looks like a "hand", so the word "hand" is used! But the word "spirit" is more accurate! Exotic flowers and plants, golden bees and colorful butterflies - not seen in the Water Spirit Realm! It's really beautiful!

Stepping lightly on the "ding-dong" jade steps, Water Elara felt wonderful! The jade steps here make a sound when you step on them, and the "ding ding dong dong" is wonderful! It's really fun! In a moment, I reached the end of the path without realizing it, and there was a big mountain in front of me. I don't know when I stopped here. At the end of the path was a large cave from which the brook flowed out.

The bearded boy, without saying a word, had already gone in. Water Elara, whose joy had not yet faded, followed in. The multicolored cave came into view, with crystal buds hanging upside down on the cave's uneven ceiling, glittering. Colorful lava columns are scattered all over the cave, up and down.

The tinkling sound of the water constantly slapping against the bottom of the rock cave, playing a series of light and lively music, it must be a heavenly melody that water Elara will never forget for the rest of her life!

"Hi - Haven't you arrived yet?" "Water Elara pouted innocently.

"Here it is!"

As the puffy boy's words echoed through the cave, Water Elara was startled again. Colorful Jade Pool! There are actually seven different colored jade pools in front of you! "Wow! How beautiful! It doesn't look like a place for spiritual practice at all, but rather a wonderful place of creation! What shall we do next?"

The resplendent jade pool, too, clearly captured the head of the boy. His pair of lively little eyes stared at the pool for a long time, not hearing the water Elara's question at all.

Secretly delighted: The Hand Position mountain, which I have been longing for day and night, has finally opened to me! Master has long said that there is a fairy cave of the Jade Pool in the Hand Position Spirit Mountain. Each of the pools in the caves conceals great spiritual magic! These are spiritual scrolls left by the elders of all races during the Primordial age of Hunhua, and it is remarkable to practice just one of them!

Seven of them are right in front of you! TSK TSK, that's wonderful! With these seven psychic scrolls, how could there be any psychic techniques that you can't master? With these seven psychic scrolls, see if they still dare to bully me or discriminate against me!

Water Elara went up to the bearded boy and gave him a hard pat on the back, but there was no sensation at all, as if he had been slapped in the air!

The water Elara was puzzled, but the pom-headed boy turned his head and said, "Alas!" Why did you hit me!"

Water Elara asked strangely, "Your back seems very soft, like air! This is also a spiritual art, isn't it?"

"I asked you why you hit me?"

Water Elara: "I asked you questions, but you didn't respond to me. You just stared blankly, not knowing what you were thinking! So... I just took a photo! Oh, don't be angry? What shall we do next?"

The bearded boy snorted and said, "Impolite! Of course it's spiritual cultivation!"

"Spiritual cultivation," hearing these four words, Water Elara's face was filled with joy, and she happily smiled at the pont-headed child, "Teach me quickly!" Teach me quickly!"

The bearded boy's face changed abruptly, and he happily ran to the blue jade pool. Elara, who was flushing the water, laughed and said, "You must be an aquarium, right?"

Water Elara: "Yes, yes! How do you know?"

"Of course I know! We met when we were three years old, and that was not far from here, at the Beast's Abyss! You're still wearing this little orchid gown, and I recognized you at a glance! What's your name?"

Water Elara smiled and said, "What?" Have I been to the Beast's Abyss? Grandpa would never let me go, Father... "Just said 'Father and mother would never let me go,' referring to the deceased parents, he was sad for a moment and then said, 'You must have been mistaken!'

"Is that so?" laughed the little boy with a fluffy head. So you also like to wear the orchid brocade gown?

"Of course!" Water Elara laughed. This is the mother... "Referring to the orchid gown, I couldn't help but think of my deceased mother, and then changed my words:" Anyway I loved it since I was a child and always wore it! It's a pity that this is the last one and I can't wear it anymore."

"Giggle... And say it's not you, it's clearly you! Tell me what your name is?"

Water Elara smiles and says, "I'm Water Elara. And you?"

"Water Elara? It sounds so nice! It seems like a nickname! What's your name?"

"Water Elara smiles," I'm Water Elara! What's your name?"

Pom-headed child: "Me? I don't know either. They all call me 'fur boy', master always calls me 'apprentice', and Nine Spirit calls me 'Kellen' even more unusually! Giggle... I just found out that one person can have three names at the same time. Isn't that funny? I don't know what you'll call me?"

Water Elara heard the word "they" again and was curious, asking, "You say they call you 'furry kid'?"

The bearded boy laughed and said, "Yes? Is this the best?"

Water Elara asked alertly, "Who are 'they'?"

"They are the samurai of the great tribes who go to the Abyss of the Beast to hunt down the beast! There are also samurai of your tribes who, like you, love blue things like armor, swords, psychics, anyway, love blue! But strangely, every samurai of any tribe calls me 'Fur boy' when they see me. Maybe 'Fur boy' is my real name! Or the big name, right?"

"Not at all!" Water Elara laughed. "Fur kid" is a lowly title used to describe a homeless, fatherless, unwanted orphan!

The bearded child: "What? I don't understand, but 'lowly title'? I don't want a low-level title! They really look down on me and discriminate against me! They are all bad people! If you hadn't said it, I would have thought that 'Fur boy' was my name! Pah, pah! Never again! Never again! I hate those samurai!"

"It seems you have no parents like me?" said Water Elara sympathetically.

"You don't either?" laughed the little boy with a fluffy head. That's great! I thought I was the only one who didn't have it. It turns out there are people in the world like me!"

Water Elara's face was full of annoyance: "Hey!" What did you say? You're still so happy without your parents?"

The bearded child smiled and said, "Then what's there to be unhappy about?" I'm not! Never! I mean none from birth!"

Water Elara airways: "You're really an ungrateful child. If you didn't, then who gave birth to you? And not your mother?"

"Not at all! Master said I was born from a fairy bud and had no father or mother at all! Isn't it amazing? Aren't you born from a fairy bud?"

Looking at the mischievous smile on the face of the bearded child, Water Elara couldn't be happy at all. What was "fairy bud"? She doesn't know and doesn't want to know. Because the child in front of her was clearly different from her. Although both were orphans, they had no parents and had never had them since childhood! But I am not. What was originally there is now separated by life and death, and all that remains is endless sorrow, grief and longing...

The bearded boy ran up to Water Elara, hugged her little head and asked with concern, "Hey - are you okay? Why are you crying?"

"Water Elara buried her head tightly in the bosom of the pom-headed child, feeling extremely sad:" I miss Father and mother."

The boy asked with concern, "Father and mother? Who are they? Are they important to you?"

"Of course they are my parents," said Water Elara sorrowfully.

Frowning: "So you have parents just like them!" Not good! Not bad at all! Why don't I?"

Water Elara wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and looked at the young and innocent smiling face of the tousled child, which was already filled with a sense of loss. Comfort: "No!" You have them too, but we don't know who they are yet! Maybe we'll know when we grow up!"

"What?" The pont-headed child immediately became happy again and laughed. Will you know when you grow up? For my growth rate, very fast! I'm already five years old. I'll be ready in a few years, won't I?"

Water Elara laughed: "What! We're all the same!"

"All the same? How many years will it take?"

Water Elara looked at the bearded boy with an impatient expression, clearly very concerned about her own life. But at her current age, she couldn't be sure when she would grow up, yet she couldn't bear to let this orphan, who had no parents since childhood, grieve. After a moment of thought, she said:

"I don't know either. Anyway, you and I are the same. We are both five years old. When I grow up, you will grow up too. At that time, you will surely know who your parents are!"

"Really?" laughed the bearded child. Then we're the same again. I have a father and a mother too! I really wish I could grow up quickly!"

Water Elara quietly slipped out of the embrace of the pom-haired child and smiled, "I'm much better. Thank you!" "

"Then what do you think I should be called? 'Apprentice'? Yes! Master always calls me like this. He's a very nice person. How about calling me 'disciple'? Doesn't it sound nice?"

"What?" Water Elara laughed. Giggle... No, no... You've become a disciple, of course the master will call you 'disciple', because it's a title the master gives to the disciple, not even a title, and only the master can call you that! If everyone calls you 'disciple', others will surely find it funny!"

"Will you laugh? No, no. I don't want to be laughed at by others. I can only laugh at others! Oh no, oh no, how about 'Kellen'? Nine Spirits is nice to me too. He won't laugh at me, will this be okay?"

Water Elara burst into laughter, not expecting that the bearded child would be like this... So innocent. Speaking is so simple, so simple that there are only a few words in your mouth, and you can't even organize a coherent sentence.

The puffy boy looked puzzled again: "Hey - are you laughing at me? Could 'Kellen' be funny too? No, no, I don't want it!"

The water Elara, unable to resist the "funny" mood at this moment, chuckled at the pom-headed child: "No, no, giggle... I just felt..." Just as I was about to go on, "I just thought what you said was funny," I stopped, because the brat had said that he didn't like being "laughed at" by others.

Then he held back his smile: "Well - What a strange name 'Kellen'! But it sounds like a name. It sounds nice and isn't funny, isn't it?"

The bearded boy, upon hearing that the name was good, immediately became excited, his eyes shining, "Isn't it? That's great! Great! I finally know my name! I'll just say, Nine Spirits have always been nice to me and won't laugh at me!"

Water Elara immediately laughed: "That's not laughing at you! It won't laugh at you, or it won't mock you!"

"' Make fun of me '? What does' laugh at me 'mean? Then he laughed: "Who cares!" Anyway, I have a nice name! I like it! I love it!"
