“These children hesitated in the face of the large pile of delicious food that had suddenly appeared. It was not that they did not want to eat it, but compared to their previous vagrant life, which was akin to eating raw meat and drinking blood, the barbecue tools and various ingredients and condiments in front of them were things that they had never come into contact with before. They simply did not know how to use them. All of them stared at each other before finally looking at Tang Zhen in unison. ”

“Smiling, he walked forward and let the children see how he operated. Lisa, who was at the side, also came forward to help. At the same time, she asked the two children to add more fuel to the bonfire. ”

Most of the fuel used by the Wanderers in the endless wilderness was a kind of grass root that was exposed to the ground. It was extremely oily and very resistant to fire. Lisa and the others were using this kind of grass root. There was a pile of it that was as tall as a person next to them. It was the dried stock collected by the residents on a daily basis.

“After the group of people busied themselves for a while, Tang Zhen began to place the various processed ingredients on the rack and began to barbeque them. A group of children gathered at the side and watched Tang Zhen’s actions without blinking. ”

“Not long after, a wave of fragrance spread out, causing these children’s noses to continuously Twitch. Some of the children had even started to drool. When Tang Zhen saw this, he smiled and shouted to the group of small heads around him,””Don’t crowd around, all of you do it yourselves, take whatever you want to eat!”” ”

“””Yay!”” ”

“The children immediately shouted excitedly when they heard this, and then pounced in front of a pile of food. After fighting for a while, each of them took a large pile of ingredients, gathered in front of their own barbecue grill, and couldn’t wait to roast them. ”

Lisa couldn’t help but cover her mouth and chuckle as she watched the group of children fight and play.

“Tang Zhen looked at Lisa, who was incomparably charming under the bonfire. At this moment, her face was filled with joy and love. Clearly, she had invested too much emotion into these children. ”

“these children will grow up one day. You can’t protect them forever. You have to learn to let them face their own difficulties and obstacles. After all, the outside world is not a paradise. It is full of danger and cruelty. ”

Tang Zhen lowered his head and said to Lisa while roasting the meat in his hand.

“Slowly turning her head around, Li Sha gently fondled the silver hair that dangled in front of her forehead. She softly said to Tang Zhen, they are all orphans and have experienced hardships. I don’t need to tell them many things, and they know it very well in their hearts. I just want them to have a happy childhood, not like me when I was young, making a living like a wild dog every day, watching the people around me die of cold and hunger. ”

“Lisa’s voice paused slightly when she said this. Tang Zhen noticed that there seemed to be mist flashing in her eyes, but it disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. ”

“The cruel experience in the endless wilderness had made this beautiful girl’s heart extremely strong, but it had not become tougher. From the way she cared for these children, it could be seen that she seemed to want to make up for what she had lost in her childhood to these children who shared the same fate. ”

“A young little girl ran back and pulled Li Sha’s hand. She timidly looked at Tang Zhen before her large eyes suddenly flashed and said,””City Lord, we’ve roasted the food, do you want to eat with us?”” ”

Tang Zhen looked at the little girl who was about the same age as Murong Ziyue. He patted her head affectionately and nodded.

The little girl cheered and immediately pulled Lisa’s hand. She looked at Tang Zhen as she walked and slowly walked to a group of little fellows who were burying their heads and eating. Tang Zhen picked a place and sat down. Lisa also sat next to him.

“everyone, eat. There are drinks here. Help yourselves! ”

“Tang Zhen looked at the little fellows who were eating until their mouths were full of oil. His mood was unusually calm. It was as though all of his worries had already left him. At the same time, something called Hope and the future had taken root and sprouted in his heart. ”

“””City Lord, here you go!”” ”

“A small, oily hand reached out in front of Tang Zhen, holding a piece of black steak. Tang Zhen looked towards the voice and saw a little boy with a little baby fat. His face was covered in charcoal ash, and his red and smooth mouth was covered in grease. He was currently chewing on food with his cheeks puffed up. ”

“The boy immediately grinned when he saw Tang Zhen staring at him. Under the illumination of the bonfire, the area around his mouth and his eyes sparkled. Tang Zhen smiled as he received the beef that the child handed over. He gently took a bite and gave the boy a thumbs up! ”

“Seeing this, the boy smiled proudly, but immediately lowered his head and continued to eat. ”

“Unconsciously, the children came over and sat around Tang Zhen and Lisa. Tang Zhen looked at the dozens of children around him, stood up and said,””Children, the reason why all of you are able to enjoy such a beautiful night in a place without monsters is because you are in the Holy Dragon Valley and because you are residents of the Holy Dragon City. ”

“At this moment, there were Warriors standing guard on the city wall, in case there would be a monster attack at night. ”

“Some of these warrior uncles were slow-witted, some were rough, and some were cunning. However, they all had a common belief in their hearts, and that was to defend Holy Dragon City with their lives! ”

“They are the Holy Dragon city’s blade, the Holy Dragon city’s shield, The Guardian of everyone in the Holy Dragon City, and you, are their future successors! ”

Holy Dragon City is your home. You don’t have to worry about hunger here. You can sleep in peace at night and don’t have to witness all kinds of human tragedies every day. Your future will be very beautiful!

“However, the premise of obtaining this happiness is that the Holy Dragon City must exist forever and continue to grow stronger. Only then can you ensure the continuation of happy lives and ensure that your children do not have to suffer the same kind of suffering. ”

“Therefore, from now on, you must work hard to cultivate so that you can possess powerful martial strength. Only then can you protect yourself and your loved ones, so that your home will never be tainted by the smoke of war. ”

“Now, everyone, calm down and feel the world around you. Try to communicate with the tree above you. The tree is called the mother tree, it has its own thoughts.”” ”

“After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the children all obediently closed their eyes and tried to feel the existence of the mother tree. ”

“In an instant, the entire area under the mother tree became quiet. The moonlight that originally covered the mother tree slowly fell from the tree and onto everyone’s body. ”

“The mother tree, which was originally very peaceful, seemed to have begun to tremble slightly at this moment, as if it had just woken up from a dream, and was stretching its limbs lazily. ”

“Tang Zhen was currently sitting cross-legged under the mother tree. Just like the other children, he was trying to communicate with the mother tree. When the moonlight shone down, he sharply felt that the surrounding air had become viscous. The mother tree’s power that he had previously felt was now mixed in in wisps. ”

“At the same time, a wondrous scene suddenly appeared in Tang Zhen’s mind. He felt as if he had turned into a tiny flying insect that was swimming in an ocean filled with light. The mother tree’s power that gave him a familiar feeling was swimming like a fish, appearing extremely lively. ”

“perhaps it’s the mother tree’s power mixed in the moonlight that can help people better understand the mother tree and communicate with it? “” ”

“Tang Zhen thought in his heart and tried to use his spirit to touch the silk-like power of the mother tree. However, this power was extremely mischievous and kept dodging Tang Zhen’s spirit as if it was playing a game. ”

“Tang Zhen spent half a day’s effort, but was ultimately unable to come into contact with it. Just as he was planning to give up, he suddenly discovered that a mother tree’s strength seemed to be avoiding something, and it directly collided with Tang Zhen in a panic! ”

“In that instant, a familiar feeling hit him. It was the power of the mother tree, but the last time he experienced it, it was through his body, this time it was through direct spiritual contact. ”

“then How do I communicate with the mother tree next? do I call out to it directly? “” ”

Tang Zhen tried to greet him when he thought of this.
