Chapter 457: Inheriting the "Mantle"
When Fan Xiaoleng saw Bailong for the first time, he was really shocked. At the age of seven, she looked at the white dragon lying lazily on the grass with her mouth half-open and a pair of watery eyes.
This is what grandma often tells her about the white dragon! It turns out that it's really as beautiful as a snow dumpling!
The little girl happily ran over and hugged the white dragon, and a crisp laugh unfolded from the grass. It's really the same as grandma said, it's not scary at all! And, it also lets itself sit on its back and feed!
"Grandma! Grandmother! I like the white dragon so much, it's much cuter than the little white! Fan Xiaoleng stood on the back of the dragon, smiling like a peach blossom in full bloom.
In the distance, an old woman in white clothes responded with a cold smile on crutches.
Xiaobai is a dog raised by her father, and is only close to her one-year-old brother Fan Xiaotian. Where is Fan Xiaotian's little bed, Xiaobai will stay there, and Fan Xiaoleng will have to be "intimidated" by Xiaobai's grinning teeth if he wants to get close.
can be hated by a dog so much, Fan Xiaoleng can be regarded as "special".
But she is such a person who is not treated by other animals, but she is liked by the white dragon. Grandma said that it was because Bailong had already decided that Fanxiao Leng would be the next dragon girl, and she would inherit Grandma's "mantle" and become the "link" between the Wuxian clan and Bailong.
In the Wuxian clan, it is already a well-known fact that only people from the Fan family will be chosen by the white dragon to become dragon girls.
Because, hundreds of years ago, it was the ancestors of the Fanjia family who made a "promise" on behalf of the entire Wuxian clan and the white dragon. The Fan family is not the patriarch of the Wuxian clan, but he has a status comparable to the patriarch, but unfortunately, that is in the past.
The current Wuxian people have long forgotten that when the catastrophe that destroyed the world came, it was the Fanjia and the White Dragon who saved some of the Wuxian people, so that the bloodline of the Wuxian country, which was once regarded as a "myth", could continue.
The Wuxian tribe is under the shadow of the white dragon, and the five branches continue to grow and become the powerful form they are today.
However, except for every dragon maiden in the Wuxian clan, no one knew that the white dragon was actually able to speak. Every 30 years, a group of girls from prosperous families will be sent to Bailong to choose, and if the selected girls get married and have children, the children will take their mother's surname.
For the growth of the entire Wuxian clan, the patriarch will give the white dragon all kinds of "prayers", and these "prayers" are passed on through the dragon girl.
No one knew how the dragon girl and the white dragon communicated, and no one would guess that it was actually a simple conversation. These so-called "prayers" gradually became orders as the Wuxian clan grew, and the Fan family lost its status comparable to that of the patriarch and became one of the branches below the main family.
The main family, it goes without saying, is the former royal family of Wuxian Kingdom.
At the age of eight, Fan Xiaoleng became a stupid girl who everyone laughed at. From time to time, adults will warn their children: "If you don't follow the rules, you will become a crazy girl from a busy family, and you will be looked down upon and embarrassed by your parents!" ”
However, Fan Xiaoleng doesn't care about this, and the Fan family doesn't care about this. Although he has lost his previous status, the "right to speak" to communicate with Bailong is still in the hands of the Fanjia.
Coupled with the different political views of the generations of dragon girls and the head of the Wuxian clan, the Fanjia family has become an obvious "backbone" in the Wuxian clan. It's a pity that there is nothing they can do, and all the children of the Fan family seem to be "free-range". As long as you stand up, you are very different from the rest of the clan.
It's just that in Fan Xiaoleng's generation, the two youngest children of the Fan family are her and her younger brother Fan Xiaotian.
The father and mother died early, and the mother's mother family gradually declined because of the domestication of the rare beast Luo Luo bird, and the Luo family wanted to pass Xiaotian to her aunt on the grounds that the dragon girl could have a child with her mother's surname. The siblings were separated, and when they said goodbye, she was ridiculed by Fanxiaotian, who was called a genius.
However, Fan Xiaoleng has always been "big-hearted", and he also knew that he could not match his younger brother in animal taming and martial arts, so he calmly accepted his "contempt". On the contrary, it made Fan Xiaotian depressed for a long time.
When he was nine years old, his grandmother, who was seriously ill, died.
Then Fan Xiaoleng was selected by the white dragon and became the new dragon girl. Everyone was shocked and secretly discussed for a long time, although she became the youngest girl in the Fan family, she was not the only girl, why did Bailong choose this stupid and reckless crazy girl?
No one dares to say these criticisms in the open, because the Wuxian clan has iron-clad rules.
Of course, even if Fan Xiaoleng occasionally heard her in the mouths of children of the same age, she didn't bother to rush up and fight with them again. That excited heart was enough to quell all her anger, and she looked forward to her future as a dragon lady!
At the age of ten, Fan Xiaoleng officially separated from his family and moved into the "Dragon Palace" where Bailong lived. Everywhere in the Dragon Hall there is the shadow of the previous dragon girl, the grandmother. Fan Xiaoleng remembered every word of her grandmother and tried to take good care of Bailong.
Grandma said that the white dragon is old and has bad bones, so he should treat it well.
In fact, she was only a small man with one thick leg of the white dragon, and she didn't take care of anything. At most, she swept the floor and wiped the table, served food and bathed the white dragon, and by the way, once she almost drowned herself in the river when bathing the white dragon.
It was the "old man" who fished her out with his tail, and in fact, Bailong took care of her more.
Fan Xiaoleng got the first official task, which was to tell the white dragon to put pressure on a newly captured dragon to make that dragon obey the domestication of the Wuxian clan. Among the several branches, only the Fanjia has the right to tame the dragon.
But this is not a privilege, but because the white dragon is in the family. Those dragons were left behind by the influence of the white dragon, and they also stayed with the Fan family.
As for the other branches, the Luo family's code name "Luo Luo" domesticated Luo Luo bird is the most special branch except for the breeding family. The others are more miscellaneous, and the remaining branches will be domesticated by all the fierce beasts that are caught.
There is only one thing for the master to do: to lead the overall situation and plan for the future of the Wuxian clan.
Fan Xiaoleng was very happy, she also deliberately said that grandma put a stick of incense in front of the spiritual seat, and said seriously: "Grandma, I completed the first task today!" I'm a true dragon girl! ”
She continued to talk to the white dragon when no one was around, fed, bathed the white dragon, and even slept with it in its dragon den.
The white dragon's scale armor is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very comfortable. Fan Xiaoleng often lies on the white dragon's back and wonders, being a dragon girl is such a happy thing, but why is grandma so heavy when she talks to her?
Fan Xiaoleng couldn't figure it out, but she wasn't in a hurry to think about it, because her grandmother said that many things would be understood when she grew up.
However, before she grew up, Fan Xiaoleng gradually understood why her grandmother would say those words to her little one. After she passed the word several times, the white dragon who returned from the mission became covered in injuries.
The Wuxian tribe is good at concealing their power, and will never use too many men or beasts unless they have to.
