The train moved slowly southward, and because it was dragging Dragon, its forward speed slowed down unprecedentedly, and was only about the same as an ordinary carriage.
Xilu Tia sat on the high platform of the war machine, her calves in the air and swaying slightly.
Not far from her, the Dragon was lying on a platform spliced by four large machines, breathing slowly. There were no obvious wounds on the head, but the eye sockets were still dim. Even with the regenerative power of Dragon, it would take a long time to grow eyes again.
The sky is getting dark, and the clouds in the distance are turning red, like a beautiful orange goldfish.
There is a bit of coolness in the wind, which is no longer as cold as Northern Grasslands. It also reminds people that it is actually midsummer now.
In the past few days, people on the train were curiously watching the Plesiosaur. After the initial freshness passed, everyone's enthusiasm gradually calmed down and returned to its usual appearance.
During these days of observing and studying Dragon, the masters obtained a lot of valuable information, especially about the physical quality of dragons and the rarity of their materials.
The first is the largest amount of dragon blood. If it is Plesiosaur in a normal state, its dragon blood contains abundant power and its quality is about level 4. However, after bleeding too much now, the power contained in the blood has become thinner and is only about level 3. If the bloodletting continues and falls to level 2, it may not be able to supply the energy consumption of various organs in Dragon's body, leading to organ failure and eventually death.
So at this stage, Mage decided not to bleed it anymore, but to bandage it so that it could recover some of its strength.
Secondly, the most valuable part of Dragon should be the dragon's heart, which is the source of power contained in the dragon's blood, which continuously provides powerful power to the entire body to drive the more than 300-meter-long body.
The quality level of the Dragon Heart is the same as itself, which should be Sixth Order", and as long as the Dragon Heart is not damaged, Dragon can continuously heal physical injuries, and even if the limbs are missing, they can gradually recover.
Next, there are the scales on Dragon. The scales on Plesiosaur are in a gradient dark blue color. The edges of the scales are darker and the roots are lighter. When placed under the light, they will reflect a gorgeous silver-blue halo. The quality of a single scale is about level four to Fifth Order.
According to ancient records, the Dragon Scale of Plesiosaur is relatively small, and its defense power is relatively weak among the various subspecies of Dragon. However, the advantage of Dragon Scale is that it can gain fast mobility in the water. If it is to fight Plesiosaur in the sea this time, I am afraid that the opponent's strength will be doubled and it will be difficult to suppress it.
The quagmire is just a place where it sleeps. Hundreds of years ago, there was a vast inland sea, but it is now dry.
What makes Sylutia more curious and surprised is that even though his head was severely injured, this Dragon still maintained consciousness, but became very drowsy.
Regarding this matter, she also consulted Master Ge Zhen, who is an expert in this field.
"This is because Dragon is the life of Sixth Order. Its soul is strong enough and is no longer completely dependent on the body. This means that even if it is killed instantly, the dragon soul can still exist for a long time. In some ancient rituals, there are secret methods to awaken the ghost bone dragon with the help of the dragon soul, or to infuse the dragon soul into some kind of treasure to drive it. Those are powerful items in legends."
"Before life reaches Sixth Order, the soul is quite fragile and needs to exist in the brain. Once the brain is destroyed, the soul will be damaged, and then even if the body is Healing, the trauma to the soul cannot be cured."
"Most of the secret methods you have heard of to summon ancient Heroic Spirit and powerful ghosts are above Sixth Order. Otherwise, you will not be able to maintain a clear mind and can only be driven by vengeful spirits with certain mobility."
"The small drum I gave you is a similar item. The mammoth soul sealed inside is only at the fourth level. Its intelligence is limited and it can only accept simple instructions that are not too complicated. If you want to talk to it and communicate with it, you can't."
"So, does memory always accompany the soul? Or is it partially stored in the body." Sylutia asked curiously.
"Most of the memories are with the soul, but there are also some subconscious reactions of the muscles that exist in the body."
Answered by Ge Zhen Master.
"However, the relationship between memory and soul is not absolutely close. After death, many people will still lose a lot of memories even if their souls are awakened by a master in the field of Dead Ember."
"It is like colored powder attached to the soft mud. Some of it gets rubbed into the soft mud over time, while some dull and repetitive memories fall like dust and can never be remembered again."
"In most people's daily lives, more than 90% of the memory experiences will be forgotten the next day. In fact, not many can be truly preserved."
"That's it."
Sylutia Use your fingers to pass through the hair on the side of your neck, so that it will not blow against your cheeks in the wind, because it will be a little itchy. The delicate hairs are drawn on the fingertips one by one, and the clear touch is conveyed to your mind.
It seemed that she had never observed her hair so carefully before. In this life, the maids helped her take care of it when she was a child. After waking up, Talia helped her comb it. Later, Talia followed Lady Falan to leave. She only started to comb it with a comb every day on weekdays, but after that, she was immersed in studying and various small and large things.
She has always been busy. In the past few years, she has spent most of her time studying and improving her strength. She probably has a kind of survival anxiety. After all, she is far away from the familiar environment in her previous life, and she has lost her mother's protection in this life. Especially during the period when she first woke up, many things had to be carefully considered.
Now, although she is not invincible, she still has some trump cards. She gradually feels a sense of security and can relax her body and mind a little.
Although she was a little concerned about the memories she couldn't recall, she didn't have to recall them all. She didn't have such a deep obsession.
Many people will have a far-reaching obsession with some things due to childhood scars and shadows of the past. In order to heal these shortcomings and wounds, they will pay a lot of price, which is difficult for others to understand. However, this is not entirely a bad thing. In the process of finding a way out and fighting against these shadows of the past, they have also developed strong mobility, allowing them to go further and deeper on certain roads than others.
If those beautiful storylines praised by the world are a kind of bright and upward vitality, then acting because of past wounds and shortcomings is a kind of vitality hidden in the darkness, and it will be more intense and difficult to extinguish.
Recalling the general experience of this life, Sylutia shook his head slightly.
Perhaps because of her rich family background and mother's favor, she did not encounter anything painful and unforgettable. This also led to her not having as strong an obsession as others in many things, but only a faint joy.
From the perspective of my previous life, my current self is probably not hardworking enough and lazy.
Look at XXX, he got first place in the exam again this time!"
Study when you have time, don't think about playing, it's meaningless.
The XXX neighbors have all gone to prestigious universities in the imperial capital, so you have to live up to your expectations!
Everyone else is fine, so why do you complain about everything?"
Don't be proud of your achievements. Always prepare for success. Opportunities are only reserved for those who are prepared.
Why can't you handle such a small thing?"
Lying on the dry steel frame, Sylutia's hair spread out behind her head. She raised her fingers and saw the blue sky and the flowing clouds below through the space between her fingers.
Really, even after a completely different life, those past events are still chasing me.
With her eyes slightly closed, Sylutia recalled her past and present lives. Probably due to the influence of her previous life, she always had a slight anxiety, fearing that she would fall behind due to poor study, be eliminated, be rejected, and be unable to gain a foothold. Because of that experience, she hated the repressive and restricted living environment.
"Why are you so gentle to everyone?"
Because I think if I treat others so gently, others will be gentle and tolerant to me.
Why can you always sense other people's sadness and understand their feelings?"
Because I am also in pain and not understood by others, I can feel the silent sadness.
Why don't you encourage people to work hard?"
Because that process never ends, perhaps only when doing something that one truly desires, people will give their best and tirelessly.
People who are naturally strong are rarely good at listening and understanding, because in their world, everything should be as it should be, and there is no need to worry about it. But there are probably very few such people. Most people have to find a way out from the pain of chewing and re-determine the direction again and again.

Memory is a person's past and his past. Those trivial past events and experiences ultimately shape his entire personality and habits. If some painful and sad memories are forgotten, will it also Healing the scars on the soul and make people more peaceful?
Because after hearing the knowledge about soul and memory taught by Master Ge Zhen, Sylutia sat in the evening breeze and recalled his reverie.
Scenes from the past came to mind again, but now there was no sadness and anger as before, and her mood was very soft and calm. She knew what the source of all this sadness was, and how she finally overcame these shadows and scars little by little.
In retrospect, it may seem a bit unbelievable, but growth is such a transformation that your past self couldn't understand why such painful and uncomfortable things happened, but now you can stand there with a calm smile.
How should such changes be described in words?
Maybe it's like pouring out the glass bottles filled with debris and sorting them out, filtering out the unnecessary impurities, and finally putting the sorted potted landscape back inside and placing it neatly.
They are still those memories, but they are no longer as turbid and messy as before, but a nostalgic scene under the sun with a halo of glass.
Although past memories shape a person's character, spiritual growth also reshapes the way we view memories, and ultimately interprets a new life.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, Sylutia's closed eyes reopened. She sat up, concentrated for a moment, and then a pale white flute was constructed in her hands and held in her hands.
She tried it while bathing in the wind, and then blew it slowly.
The voice was a little jerky at first, as if he was recalling a past event that was too far away.
There was a time when all the children in school were required to learn to play the flute, and she was one of those people.
I can no longer remember the complete tune, so I can only follow a certain instinct, reproduce the fragments that left an impression, and then improvise.
Music is actually very tolerant. As long as it matches the melody and rhythm, you can produce a sound that is not too unpleasant. Perhaps it will get better as your instincts come into play, and those details hidden in the subconscious will slowly come out.
The sun slowly sinks into the horizon, and the orange-red afterglow reflects on the clouds. The sound of the flute slowly becomes melodious from the greenness at the beginning. The fragments of memories that were persistent at the beginning are now gradually put aside and forgotten. Just like the free-flying Flying Bird, the melodious flute sound floats far into the sky.
The train below is still moving slowly at an unpleasant pace. The slight sound of wind, the chatter of people on the train, the sound of curtains fluttering, the sound of skirts turning, and the melodious flute sound quietly emerge in the evening.
Plesiosaur, who was lying on the stage, was breathing slowly and calmed down. A melodious and quiet flute sound ended, and the originally closed eyelids of Dragon Eye opened. The only intact jasper Dragon Eye turned and saw the figure in the white dress with her back on the high stand. It seemed that there was still unfinished flute music lingering around her back.
After staring at that figure for a long time, Plesiosaur closed his eyelids again, entered sleep again, and regained his strength.
Although there is nothing unusual on the surface, its mental state is somewhat calmer than in the past few days, and it is no longer so restless.
The train continued southward, passing through the water-logged wilderness and entering the drier plains. The climate here is getting warmer, and some fields and villages can be vaguely seen in the distance on the track, and traces of human activity are beginning to appear.
Five days later, the train crew was completely accustomed to the existence of the Plesiosaur, and some people had begun to discuss what kind of sensation the Plesiosaur would cause after it was transported back to the Alliance center.
"There will probably be a lot of people who want to come and visit. I can make an unknown amount of money just by charging the tickets."
"Since Eighth Era, Fourth Continent has not seen the figure or trace of Dragon for a long time."
"The ancient secret techniques that have been preserved and sealed by some schools finally have objects that can be tested. Those masters will definitely be interested in Plesiosaur. After all, this is the living Dragon."
"I don't know if it can be domesticated. If it can, it will be a historic achievement."
"Dragons are all arrogant. It is very difficult to make them surrender. It is estimated that only the powerful dragon Hour" can make Dragon obey orders."
"However, in the far east, there are also witches who are accompanied by Dragon. They have special secrets and dragon contracts to connect their powers."

The lights inside the train were brightly lit, and everyone was discussing the future and interesting things. Now the train has gradually entered the hilly areas of the west, among the rolling mountains, and the cool evening breeze is blowing, causing some branches and leaves to sway.
In the hazy night, little drops of rain drifted down in the wind, soaking the branches and leaves in the mountains.
