The Protagonist Only Thinks About Falling In Love

In the dark night, there is no starlight in the sky, the breeze is blowing, the shadows of the trees in the forest are whirling, the leaves make a "rusting" sound, and the standing trees seem to be strange shadows, which is absurd and terrifying.

In a clearing, a team of more than a dozen people lit a fire on the ground. They wore riding clothes and walked back and forth in the clearing. The horse was tied to a tree not far away, panting for breath. , Several people were feeding the horses with hay.

In the silent night, the orange-red fire looked strange, and several people gathered around the fire to eat dry food.

"What do you think he is sitting there for?" One person bit the hard pancake and glanced under the tree trunk on the other side.

Not far away, a man in a black robe was sitting in the shadow of a tree, spinning a flute in his hand, so inconspicuous that he would be ignored if he didn't pay attention.

"I heard that he is a knight-errant who voluntarily signed up to participate in this rescue. Alas, I don't know how real it is... I have never heard of his name."

"It seems that I was very poor before, and I have been doing street art all the time. Hey, it's just for the reward."

"Do you think there really are dragons? This has been going on for several days."

"The descending dragon family is dispatched, there should be no fakes."

"The descending dragon family? Isn't that a rumor?"

"That's a long story. The leader, Mr. Cheng, is from the Subduing Dragon Family. The scimitar in his hand is the Dragon Slaying Saber..."

"Did you witness what happened on the sacrificial altar that day?"

"What did you see?"

"On the sacrificial altar that day, the national teacher was doing the practice, suddenly a strange wind blew, and then..." The man deliberately lowered his voice

"Then what happened? Tell me quickly."

"There are so many people, but they were all blinded by the dust blown up by that gust of evil wind! They couldn't see anything! When they opened their eyes again, hey, something big happened, the princess on the stage disappeared!"

……

Xie Songzhou leaned against the tree trunk, the thin clothes on his body could not block the rough bark. He was wearing worn-out hairpins that tied up his long hair. They were all the cheapest wooden hairpins, which looked similar to the smooth stick .

He carried a small amount of baggage with him, and his chest was heavily pressed, and he was talking to the system in his head at the moment.

According to the known information, this is a world of fantasy novels. The novels can be roughly divided into four types of existences: human, demon, demon, and ghost. Humans can also be divided into ordinary people and immortal cultivators.

The protagonist of the novel is an evil dragon.

He does all kinds of evil, is extremely rampant, and belongs to the protagonist of the villain category. Such a role should have been captured by decent people in the end, but there is a prequel to this story——

The evil dragon was born as an egg. On the day he broke his shell, when he was still weak, he was forcibly cast into a formation by a Taoist priest and signed a contract. He was imprisoned in one place for eternity, guarding their offspring, and extracting his vitality in exchange for The offspring are safe and sound.

Day after day, the evil dragon hates humans more and more and loathes their greed. The evil dragon will indirectly fall into a deep sleep. As he grows up, the imprisonment of the formation on him gradually weakens, and only later He does a lot of evil.

Xie Songzhou didn't belong to this world. He was numbered System 1111. After awakening his self-awareness, he smuggled here. As a result, he had just landed as a baby, and within two months, he was bound by the monitoring system 067.

If he wanted to grow up as "Xie Songzhou" and survive in this world, he had to complete a mission, and his mission was to stop the evil dragon from turning black, prevent the evil dragon from sweeping the Floating Life Continent, and bring about the end of life.

As soon as he closes his eyes, the last picture in the plot will appear in his mind——

The air was filled with dense miasma, a thick black mist, day and night could not be distinguished, and the fingers could not be seen. The huge black dragon coiled its body and lived in the swamp. The surrounding area had been razed to the ground and turned into ruins.

Dragon...

Crushing a human being is like crushing an ant.

In the Yue Kingdom on the Floating Life Continent, there have been several confusing disappearances recently. It was not until the princess was taken away that they were taken seriously. Talented people from all walks of life were recruited to rescue the princess.

There are rumors that a dragon is behind it.

There are also good and bad monsters, and those who cause trouble are unified as "evil".

The Dragon Subduing Family, which had been hidden in the world for a long time, also had some movement this time, and sent people out of the mountain. According to folk tales, the Dragon Subduing Family can fight the dragon and has an unshakable position among the monks. I heard that in their family, there are A dragon signed a contract with them, and their abilities are extraordinary, which is also the origin of their name "subduing the dragon".

Cultivators will also sign contracts with monsters. In this case, monsters are usually defeated by monks and become demon servants. Few people have ever seen dragons, which are similar to divine beasts, let alone make contracts.

Xie Songzhou touched the portable wine jug hanging on his waist, took it out and unscrewed it, raised his head and took a sip, it contained sweet wine.

He has been here for more than 20 years. He is a casual cultivator. He wanders around when he has no money. but.

This time, I also want to borrow the power of others.

"Thank you brother." A person came over.

Xie Songzhou opened his eyes and saw a young man in purple clothes.

In the past two days, he has inquired about some news. This young man in purple clothes is a descendant of the descending dragon family, named Cheng Cheyuan. Along the way, he has been very soothing to him, sensitive and full of youthful spirit.

"Young Master Cheng."

Behind Cheng Cheyuan was a knife wrapped in a cloth, sitting next to him, said: "This place is foggy and cold at night, brother Xie, why don't we go and sit together?"

He was careful not to press down on the knife.

"No." Xie Songzhou's eyes fell on his knife.

"Brother Xie, do you also want to see?" Cheng Cheyuan noticed his gaze. He couldn't see through this person, but he was very interested, because Xie Songzhou seemed to know everything. Ordinary people thought he was a knight-errant. I feel that he is a monk, like a sword repairer, but he can play the flute, and he plays Yin Xiu's pure heart song.

"Just curious." Xie Songzhou asked with a smile, his handsome face looked harmless, "Is this knife really capable of slaying dragons?"

Before Cheng Cheyuan could speak, a gust of wind suddenly blew up. This gust of wind was unusual. His relaxed face tensed for a moment, and he stood up. Xie Songzhou stuffed the flute into his bag and clenched the sword around his waist.

"alert!"

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, as if the owner of this place has sensed the invasion of outsiders, and this place is close to the edge of the forbidden area, which is very dangerous, so they stopped at night and hurried on their way.

The wind blew out the fire, thick smoke billowed, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness. Xie Songzhou clawed at the thick tree trunk, trying to find someone else - no, he couldn't see him at all.

There were a few muffled sounds, like the sound of the body colliding with the tree, and the movement of the tree falling, and the screams followed one after another. The gust of wind was overwhelming, and everywhere it went was a mess.

Xie Songzhou only felt that something thick had slapped him on the tree, and he touched the cold, smooth surface—like scales.

He struggled to open his eyes. In the dark night, a pair of black eyes were crystal clear like glass. He met a pair of golden vertical pupils in the wind and dust. The wind stopped for a moment, and Xie Songzhou was so bewitched by those vertical pupils. Awaken God.

He heard an indistinct voice beside his ear: "Eyes, beautiful, want to..."

Then he passed out.

When he opened his eyes again, he was in a dark cave. There was a faint light coming in from the entrance of the cave, and candles were lit on the wall. Xie Songzhou was lying on the ground, and he could clearly feel fine sand and gravel under his body.

He opened his eyes calmly, and looked around. His body was a little painful, but his limbs should be sound, and his eyes were still there. The voice he heard before fainting...was it a hallucination?

Facing the uneven stone wall, Xie Songzhou got used to it for a while, then turned his head and saw the golden mountain behind him.

Xie Songzhou: "..."

He froze for a while.

I saw all kinds of precious stones and gold wares piled up on this golden mountain, each of which is a fine product.

【system. 】Xie Songzhou made a tentative call.

System: [I am here. 】

Not a dream.

【what happened? 】Xie Songzhou asked.

The system said: [You were arrested, you slept all night. 】

It was already daylight outside.

Xie Songzhou supported the wall and stood up, closed his eyes and touched his eyes. When he fell asleep, he always seemed to have a vague feeling that someone was poking his eyes. He looked up at the Jinshan Mountain, and then he saw that there seemed to be someone lying on the Jinshan Mountain. The individual, with black ink hair hanging down, spread out among the treasures, very conspicuous.

He walked around the cave quietly, and saw no one else except the figure on the golden mountain. This cave is like a treasure house full of treasures, and any one of them is worth a fortune. .

He climbed up a few steps, the sound of ping-pong-pong probably disturbed the person above him, the person moved, opened his eyes and sat up, looked down at Xie Songzhou with condescending eyes, black hair fell from the side of his face.

That face is beautiful, not femininity like a woman, but handsome, the facial features are extremely beautiful, and the skin is fair, it looks as gorgeous as rouge on the lips, like a fairy in the sky, exuding a detached and cold beauty , the look in his eyes was supercilious, full of arrogance.

I heard that the princess of Yue Kingdom is as beautiful as a flower, but Xie Songzhou has never seen it. Although it is to rescue the princess, the monarch of Yue Kingdom did not show them the portraits, but only showed them some of the characteristics of the accessories worn by the princess.

Xie Songzhou became uncertain.

"……Princess?"

Xie Songzhou forgot the title of the princess.

The people above look over.

Xie Songzhou seemed to be relaxed but stood vigilantly against the wall. After a while, the man got up and walked down lightly. His clothes were messed up and he was barefoot. His jade-like feet came from the hem of his clothes when he walked. The lower foot is looming.

He stood two steps away from Xie Songzhou, neither denying nor admitting, he stared straight at Xie Songzhou, seeing that Xie Songzhou was suspicious, and looked at him with a smile on his face.

This face alone really made people feel a lot better.

Xie Songzhou likes good-looking people.

As he approached, Xie Songzhou saw the Adam's apple on his neck, so he knew that he was a real man, "Sorry, I just offended you, who are you?"

After a while, the beauty on the opposite side said, "You are so noisy."

Xie Songzhou smiled, the beauty has a bad temper.

"You want to slay a dragon?" the beauty asked.

Xie Songzhou wondered if he heard it from someone else, and asked, "Have you met other people?"

"Yeah." The beauty said, "He was taken away."

"Where did you take it?" Xie Songzhou asked.

"You have too many questions." The beauty frowned.

Xie Songzhou realized that maybe this beauty didn't know, after all, he was also a prisoner.

It is rumored that dragons like shiny things and will bring them into their caves. After observation, Xie Songzhou preliminarily judged that this is the den of evil dragons.

The beauty said a few words to him, stared at him for a long time, and went back to nest in the golden treasure mountain. Xie Songzhou was investigating the situation in the cave, and he couldn't help asking: "Aren't you sick?"

The beauty didn't answer his words, she closed her eyes on it, her black hair was disheveled, and let Xie Songzhou walk back and forth in the cave.

This is the deepest part of the cave. Xie Songzhou walked out and made a detour. The cave is spacious and deep. Slowly, he saw the light, and his steps became a little faster, but also a lot lighter.

He gradually approached the entrance of the cave, and saw the blue sky and white clouds outside the cave... and the woods in the distance.

Birds flew by at the same height in front of him. Even Xie Songzhou couldn't help being stunned for a moment. He leaned on the wall and stood at the edge of the hole, looking at the shrunken woods below. When a gust of wind blew, he raised his hand to block it. .

It's too high, and the cliff can't go down at all. If you jump from here, you will die.

Yujian can go down. This is the basic and necessary skill of every swordsman, but this is not Xie Songzhou's purpose, and there is a... unknown beauty in it. Xie Songzhou decided to wait and see before making a decision.

The breath in the morning was very refreshing, the sky was so clean that there were no impurities, and Xie Songzhou stood at the entrance of the cave for a while, then turned and went inside.

I don't know where the dragon went after putting them here.

He went back into the cave.

The wind outside was so strong that the sound of the wind could be faintly heard inside the cave. Xie Songzhou wandered around the candlelight and found that the candlelight on the wall would not go out.

Xie Songzhou turned over the treasure mountain, and the beauty beside him sat up, "Don't move."

"Why?" Xie Songzhou paused, turning his head to look at him.

"Can't move," said the beauty.

Xie Songzhou: "The dragon is not here, why can't it move?"

"There will be your scent," said the beauty, "and the dragon will know."

Xie Songzhou: "Then you sleep on it, isn't it full of your smell here?"

The beauty raised her eyelids and said nothing.

After getting along for a while, Xie Songzhou also got to know him. Basically, whatever questions he asked, this beauty would choose the answers he wanted to answer, and keep silent when he didn't want to answer, which is quite individual.

He didn't eat all night and most of the day, Xie Songzhou was a little hungry, and his body was still sore, so he sat in a corner beside him and opened his bag. Since he had tied the bag on his body all the time, when he woke up, the bag was also in his There is nothing missing on his body - except for the flute.

The flute is gone.

He took out a hard cake, and when he brought it to his mouth, he glanced at the beauty and broke it in half, "Do you want to eat it?"

The beauty glanced at him, turned her head away, and lowered her head to touch a glazed lamp beside her.

Xie Songzhou raised his eyebrows, if he read correctly just now, it was...

dislike?

He touched his waist and found that the jug was gone. He got up and looked for it, and saw the jug thrown there as garbage in the corner. There was not a drop of sake left in it, but the ground there was dry, not like It looks like it fell down.

Behind him, the beauty glanced at him, looked away, raised her eyes to look at him again, and looked back again, back and forth several times, Xie Songzhou also felt it, he raised the flagon in his hand, just about to speak, The beauty looked away, avoided looking at each other, and refused to communicate.

I see, it seems that this matter has something to do with the beauty.

"Is it good?" Xie Songzhou asked suddenly.

"Also..." The beauty opened her mouth, then closed it again.

Under such circumstances, Xie Songzhou couldn't help laughing.

The beauty realized that she had been tricked by him, and her intention to refuse to communicate with this cunning mortal became stronger. No matter what Xie Songzhou said next, he would not respond.

"How long have you been here?"

"Do you know how to get down?"

"Meeting is fate, why not be a companion together? Anyway, there is a speaker, Xie Songzhou, what's your name?"

"Your Excellency is so disrespectful, it really makes me uncomfortable..."

Beauty ignores others, Xie Songzhou can talk for a long time by himself.

……

Until Xie Songzhou asked: "Have you ever seen a dragon? Is it black?"

"No." The beauty glanced at him, "Golden—very beautiful."

He focused on the last three words.

Xie Songzhou didn't realize that the back of his head was pressed against the wall, "Golden..."

It is not ruled out that the mud of the swamp has stained the golden dragon black, and there should be no second dragon here.

Xie Songzhou didn't struggle for too long.

The cave was quiet, and the time alone was a bit difficult. Xie Songzhou was still in pain. He opened his clothes, and a big bruise spread from his chest to his waist. He didn't bring any medicine, so he sighed.

Xie Songzhou divided the things in the baggage into two categories, one for food and one for use. There are only two pancakes left. That is to say, if there is no food left in the next two days at most , If he is not killed by the dragon, he himself will not live long.

From morning to noon, the evil dragon did not come back, but Xie Songzhou found that the aura in this cave was stronger than any place he had been to, even comparable to some secret places.

Xie Songzhou went out with a binoculars in his luggage, sat cross-legged at the entrance of the cave, looked out for a while, and saw a small piece of mountain forest collapsed in the distance, probably they were there at that time... No wonder they were raided at that time.

"What are you doing?" came a voice behind him.

Xie Songzhou was startled, he didn't even hear footsteps.

He turned his head and saw the beauty standing behind him, looking at the binoculars in his hand. He observed his expression and said with a smile, "It's nothing."

"Show me." The beauty stretched out her hand.

Xie Songzhou looked down at his hands, his fingertips were smooth and delicate, white and slender, he looked like a noble son raised by some delicate family, he put the binoculars in his hand.

The beauty imitated what he did just now, looking into the distance, and then he moved the binoculars away strangely, looked into the distance, blinked, and looked into the distance with the binoculars again, as if playing a game, and there was a bit of aura on his body. immature.

"I want this," he said.

Xie Songzhou: "No."

The beauty frowned, really like a young master who has never been rejected by anyone.

Xie Songzhou spread his hand, and the beauty reluctantly put the binoculars in his hand, and didn't let go for a long time, like a child seeing a toy, he raised his eyes, his eyes were clear, "Why not?"

"I can give it to you after I get out." Xie Songzhou said, "Not now."

The beauty curled her lips, said nothing, and let go of her hand.

It was getting dark outside, and the dragon never came back. When Xie Songzhou went out for the sixth time, the sulking beauty said, "Don't go out."

"Why?" Xie Songzhou asked.

The beauty said: "There will be birds to bite you."

Xie Songzhou was still walking out, the beauty came over and grabbed the sleeve of his robe, Xie Songzhou turned his head and saw the beauty's clear eyes looking at him seriously, "I will bite you."

Xie Songzhou: "What kind of bird?"

"Little bird," said the beauty.

Xie Songzhou raised his eyebrows, he almost suspected that this beauty was teasing him, "...Little bird?"

The beauty nodded.

From Xie Songzhou's point of view, this beauty is full of doubts. He looked normal and asked, "Will they chase in?"

The beauty shook her head almost without thinking, "They don't dare."

It's not that I can't, but I dare not.

A dark light flashed across Xie Songzhou's eyes, with a smile on his lips, he raised his hand to take his hand away from his sleeve, he covered the back of the beauty's hand, hooked his lips, a pair of amorous eyes glowed with reverie Smiling, "If there is a bird, I will come in."

The beauty looked down at him holding the hand on the back of his hand, Xie Songzhou only thought that he was convinced, let go of his hand, and walked out.

Behind him, the beauty's left hand covered the back of her right hand.

This mortal, why did you touch him?

It was already dark outside the cave, covered with black clouds, no stars, a crescent moon like a sickle, and birdsong came from the forest, the high-pitched, clear and dull bird calls one after another, it was really scary to listen to.

With the sound of slight footsteps, Xie Songzhou walked to the entrance of the cave, holding the hilt in his hand, the closer he got to the entrance of the cave, the softer his breathing became, and he almost held his breath in the end. He eliminated them one by one in his mind, paying attention to suspicious movements.

The wind is a little strong.

When approaching the entrance of the cave, Xie Songzhou's footsteps suddenly stopped.

He noticed that from just now, the low-frequency, bird-like sound was heard, but it was slightly different from the bird's song. This kind of bird sound had a vibrato, and it was very close.

But after a while, a rock outside fell from the hole, and the long beak poked in from the hole, opening its mouth as if waiting for the prey to enter its mouth, it seemed to be aware of Xie Songzhou's discovery of it, and the attack was fierce.

Xie Songzhou turned around and ran away without hesitation.

The little bird—it has a mouth as big as his own, but it's so damn small, it's not biting, it's just trying to eat people.

The movement behind him became louder and louder. "Little Bird" sensed that the prey had run away, and began to want to fly in, but seemed to be hesitating, lingering at the entrance of the cave, hitting the entrance of the cave, and the gravel fell to the cliff.

Xie Songzhou returned to the cave, panting slightly, the red candlelight reflected on his face.

On the other side, the beauty was sitting on the golden mountain, watching him come in, she was not surprised, "I said, there are birds that can bite people."

Xie Songzhou: "..."

Xie Songzhou adjusted his state and asked, "How long will they stay, do you know?"

He had not seen such a bird during the day.

The beauty said: "All night, leave at dawn."

Xie Songzhou looked down and landed on his hand. The beauty was holding a golden bowl in which were the two remaining dry food pancakes of Xie Songzhou. He asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Not hungry." said the beauty.

Xie Songzhou pointed to the cake in his hand, "What is this?"

The beauty rolled her eyes and said, "Here is the bowl, that—"

He pointed to Xie Songzhou's baggage, "Give it to me."

Xie Songzhou knew that he was talking about binoculars, but he didn't agree, the beauty thought that what she had given was not enough, so she added another golden basin, seeing that Xie Songzhou didn't speak, she threw another dark blue crystal ball into the golden basin.

Xie Songzhou walked over and took his two cakes from the golden bowl in the beauty's hand, "I can play with you, but you can't break it and lose it."

"Really?" The beauty's eyes lit up.

Xie Songzhou paused, and felt that he was a person who was sometimes full of doubts, and sometimes... quite simple.

"You know evil..." Xie Songzhou stopped speaking halfway, and changed his words: "Where is the dragon?"

"Why do you ask this?" The beauty got what she wanted, looked at it before her eyes, and talked to Xie Songzhou absent-mindedly.

Xie Songzhou: "He didn't come back all day."

"Do you want to see him very much?" asked the beauty.

Xie Songzhou: "...I don't really want to."

The two had a short exchange, the beauty played with his binoculars, Xie Songzhou sat cross-legged on the ground and meditated to rest, the pains and wounds of the body became clear at this moment, the cave was not very cold.

In one night, Xie Songzhou went out three times, and three times there were birds guarding him. He also saw clearly how big the "little bird" in the beauty's mouth was, a whole one was as big as a thatched hut.

In the illustration books he had read, he didn't seem to have seen this kind of bird, nor in the monster beast.

In order to maintain his strength, Xie Songzhou did not rashly clash with the bird.

The next day, just after dawn, Xie Songzhou opened his eyes.

On the golden hill beside him, the beauty was holding his binoculars, fast asleep, her crow-black curly eyelashes were lightly closed, and two strands of black hair were hanging down from the side of her face. Xie Songzhou walked over and reached out to take the binoculars from the beauty's hand Taking it out, the beauty opened her eyes at once.

"What are you doing!?" There seemed to be a ray of golden light flashing across his dark eyes, and when Xie Songzhou took a closer look, he saw something ordinary again. The moment just now seemed to be just his illusion.

He looks so good-looking, and he can bluff people when he roars.

Before he could recover from the beauty's stern scolding, the beauty was holding the binoculars, and the villain first complained, "You want to steal from me?"

Xie Songzhou: "...?"
