"Protect? Are you kidding me?" I said bluntly. This was the first time in my life that I heard such an explanation of a curse.

Murong Zhen shook his head lightly: "Just listen to me." I had to close my mouth obediently and wait for Murong Zhen's next words.

"Humans treated Longzi like this, and the Dragon King felt that the dignity of the dragon clan had been insulted. So the Dragon King went to the underworld and put this curse on King Lanling, who was about to be reincarnated, in order to prevent people around him from hurting him again." Murong

Zhen said so.

I sat aside silently, biting into pieces the candy I had just filled my mouth with.

Murong Zhen spoke for a long time, and his mouth felt thirsty, so he paused and took a sip of water before continuing: "After all, Gao Changgong was killed by his own family, and the Dragon King did this for Gao Changgong's good.

And I am the messenger sent by the Dragon King to find the reincarnation of Gao Changgong, in order to show him the way when the reincarnation wants to abandon the shackles of this curse." It was not until the end of his words that Murong Zhen revealed his true identity.

After listening to what he said, I remained silent for a long time without speaking.

After a while, I finally said: "Method..."

"Go back to the Demon Realm and find the Dragon King yourself!" Murong Zhen answered directly without waiting for me to finish. I was stunned for a moment and looked at Murong Zhen with confusion.

I know that the curse is definitely not as simple as Murong Zhen said. But why he refused to tell me the truth is unknown.

Since they are unwilling to tell me, I am afraid I will not get any results no matter how hard I try to ask.

So I agreed and decided to follow Murong Zhen back to the demon world first. In the current situation, I can only take one step at a time and wait and see.

"However, can you give me some more time? Master and I will leave on my birthday." I lowered my eyes and whispered.

Murong Zhen nodded lightly and agreed: "Let's say goodbye to our friends during this time."

After chatting with him for a while, Murong Zhen was about to leave. I persuaded him to stay for lunch, but he said that he still had things to prepare when he returned.

That’s it for now, I won’t say anything more.

After Murong Zhen left, I locked myself in the room. I didn't come downstairs until Poseidon made lunch and called me.

My parents went out as usual. Today there are still only three of us, Lingdang, Poseidong and me at home.

"Dad, what did the old man say to you just now? Is it about...well." Lingdang said as he picked up the rice. Because Poseidon was listening, I didn't want anyone to know about the curse, so I didn't wait until Lingdang

When he was able to say everything, I gently nudged the bottom of the rice bowl he was holding, so that he didn't say the second half of the sentence.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Lingdang put down her rice bowl, ran to the coffee table next to the sofa, and pulled out a large piece of toilet paper to wipe her mouth.

I rolled my eyes at him, who could make him talk so uncontrollably?

"Bell," suddenly, Poseidon couldn't help but speak. I looked up at him warily and heard him say: "He just..."

"It's nothing, don't worry about it." I felt guilty and took a chopstick of food and stuffed it into my mouth. Although I said that, how could Poseidon let go of my weird behavior so easily.

He actually put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, looked at me straight in the eyes, and stopped asking any more questions. The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the silence was terrifying.

After a few moments, Lingdang washed her hands and face and ran back to continue eating. Then I finally made a hesitant look to Poseidon and said, "I still can't tell you now, let me think about it carefully."

Can I tell you later?"

Poseidong looked at me and narrowed his eyes suddenly. Lingdang noticed Poseidon's strange behavior and even ran to Poseidong and shook his palm vigorously.

After seeing no response from the other party, Lingdang had no choice but to stop his boring behavior and sit down at his seat to eat.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to tell me personally." Poseidon finally said this after being silent for so long.

At this point, the three of us fell into silence, and the meal was a bit awkward.

After lunch, I called my mother and the others. After telling them that I was going to Xiaochen's house for a few days, Xiaochen's constant attentiveness in front of my mother finally had some effect.

Mom nodded happily and agreed.

After hanging up the phone, I ran back to the room. I dragged out the suitcase under the bed and started packing the necessities for this time.

Lingdang was nestled on the sofa watching TV. After Poseidong finished washing the dishes, he stood at the door of my room.

After looking at it for a while, he said, "Do you want to go out?"

"Well," I was busy packing my things and said without looking back. For a long time, there was no sound behind me.

Just when I thought Poseidong had gone downstairs, I turned around and almost bumped into Poseidon's chest.

His height of nearly two meters is not in vain. If you look at it from a distance, you don't think it is that scary. But when you look closer, you will feel the uncomfortable feeling of a small man being dominated by a big man.

"What are you doing, scaring me?" I pushed Poseidon away and walked to the closet to look for my coat.

Poseidon stood there silently. After I went back again, he grabbed my arm. "How long will it take to come back?"

"Huh?" I paused for a moment, thought for a moment and then returned: "About four or five days, it'll be pretty quick. Mainly because I'm in a hurry on the road, hehe."

"Oh." Poseidon nodded, let go of my arm, smiled slightly, turned around and went downstairs.

I looked at his back in confusion, and gradually furrowed my eyebrows. I always felt that after this surgery, Saidong's whole person became strange.

But this is how ordinary people should behave, with joy and sorrow, not the dull and stunned look like before.

I continued to pack, and by the time everything was packed, it was already past three in the afternoon.

When I dragged my suitcase downstairs, Ling Ding finally noticed me. He tilted his head and asked, "Are you going out? Do you want to take me with you?"

"You can pull me down. I'm going to find Mr. Xiao and the others. Don't keep interfering in adults' matters." I used the words my parents usually used to scold me, and pointed the bell at the bell.

He raised his eyebrows.

"Tch, don't let me pull you down. Come back soon." Bell Ding then made a phone call gesture and put it to her ear. "Call me if you need anything. Set my number as a shortcut key."

"I know, why are you acting like an old lady?" I rolled my eyes at him. I was just going to have a Chinese New Year party with my brothers. Why did he make me feel like I was going to be an undercover agent?
