Looking at his partner's tired appearance, Ao Bai urged distressedly: "Let's act when I see the opportunity, I have already reminded Rong Tuo, Ao Mu and they can't please anything." You rest for a while, I'll go out and find something to eat. ”

Ji Mo only nodded, "I'm really going to starve to death, I'll talk while eating later, I'll clean up first, the house is a mess." ”

The husband and wife talked for a few words, and after Ao Bai arranged the protective water curtain around him, he turned around and prepared to go out.

The little dragon's eyes were sharp, and he immediately found it, he dropped the conch he was playing with, and hurriedly chased after it.

"Don't~!" Ji Mo hugged the child and coaxed: "Yi'er, now is not the time to go out to play, Dad will take you out to play tomorrow." ”

Ao Bai also said gently: "Father will be back soon, you stay at home and wait." After saying that, he hurried out, ready to go to the neighborhood to catch some fish and shrimp quickly.

“…… Ahhh Xiaolong was not very happy, and struggled in Ji Mo's arms. The child grows up very quickly, and at this time he already has independent and clear judgment and understanding, and he is quite stubborn.

Ji Mo took the child into the inner room, cleaned up all the way, and looked at the familiar furnishings, and his mood slowly improved. He pulled out the large silver bead and placed it on the bedside table, the pearl glowing softly and illuminating the dark inner room.

"Oh~ Yi'er, look, the big pearl that shines, it's fun, right?"

"Roar, roar, roar......" The little dragon quieted down and swam over slowly, almost looking at the silver beads with his eyes on it, looking very puzzled.

Ji Mo couldn't help but tease: "You kid! It seems that it is right to take you home as soon as possible, I have never lived in the sea, you little dragon feel fresh when you see pearls, hahaha......"

After pacifying the child, Ji Mo began to pack up the things he brought back from the Holy Lake, all of which Qing Zhe enthusiastically helped prepare: the animal skin clothes and boots he often wore, animal skin mattresses, wooden bowls, wooden spoons, bamboo tubes and cups, as well as sealed preserved fruits and jerky.

"Hmm~ These have to be sent to the island to be placed." Ji Mo muttered to himself, he put his burden aside, and unconsciously fell into contemplation:

- Why did they come? Could it be that he watched Ao Bai not only transform into a form, but also possess great power, and wanted to win over Ao Bai again? But how did the news get out?

Alas~ I don't believe that the invincible Dragon King of the West Sea, Ao Jiken, is enthusiastic about Ao Bai......

Suddenly, the light in the room flickered, flickering on and off.

Ji Mo turned his head to look, it turned out that Xiaolong knocked down the silver beads for lighting, and was carefully lying on the ground, stretching out two paws to play with them, but the silver beads were as big as Ji Mo's fists, and they were very round, and Xiaolong couldn't hold them at all.

After several efforts to no avail, Xiaolong simply pushed hard, and the silver bead rolled far away, his eyes lit up, and he quickly chased after it, and pushed hard.

“…… Looks like you're playing with pearls as balls, huh? Gotta ~ as you please. Ji Mo smiled and beckoned, Ao Yi understood the meaning of this gesture, and he quickly rolled the silver bead in front of his father.

"Come on, Daddy will help you carry it." Ji Mo bent down, picked up the pearl with one hand, picked up the child with the other, and patiently played with him.

"Good son, you have to be obedient when you go home, this sea is boundless, if you run around and get lost, Dad doesn't know where to find you, I will be crazy......" Ji Mo said worriedly. He really hopes that Ao Yi can grow up soon, the current construction of the Sicilian Sea is in the initial stage, and there is a lot of busyness and chaos, but the child is still so young, it is the time to take care of it carefully.

Xiaolong only cared about playing with the pearls on Ji Mo's hand, and he didn't have any experience for his father's worries for the time being.

"Alas~" Ji Mo sighed and kissed Xiaolong on the head.

Not long after the warm parent-child time, Ao Bai came back with food.

Xiaolong immediately threw away the silver bead and pounced on his father.

"Hey~ Littering something, you." Ji Mo pursed his lips and put the silver bead back on the bedside table.

Today's dinner was a veritable late one, and both husband and wife were a little preoccupied.

*****

"Ji Mo." Ao Bai suddenly put down the food, and Yan sù spoke.

"Huh?" Ji Mo looked at his partner with concern.

"Hmm~ When I was in the East China Sea in the past, I met a group of Jiaolong friends from the North Sea," Ao Bai said carefully, "At the beginning, they were not accepted by their father - there are too many Jiaolong in the East China Sea, you know." ”

Ji Mo understood in seconds, and his interest immediately came up, "There are indeed enough Jiaolong clans in my hometown, and our mermaid patriarch has been chattering all day long...... Hey? Since they are not the dragons of the East China Sea, how did you know them? ”

Ao Bai explained nostalgically: "At that time, I couldn't transform for a long time, and my father was very disappointed, so he handed over the defense task of the Dragon Palace to me, I took the guard dragon out to patrol the sea every day, and I found that group of Jiaolong brothers on the edge of the East China Sea, they swam from the North Sea to join my father, I helped introduce it several times, but my father didn't accept it, alas~"

- Jiaolong is very fertile, very loyal, and diligent, but after the number exceeds the tolerance of the sea area, the dragon king has to consider the problem of control.

"So, where did they go after that?" Ji Mo asked sympathetically.

"I went back to my hometown of Beihai," Ao Bai said sadly, "I saw them leave, because my father did not agree to accept them, and foreign dragons should not stay in the East China Sea for a long time. ”

Ji Mo's heart moved, and he asked again: "What's wrong with Beihai?" Why did the dragon flee there? ”

"Roar~!" Xiaolong was finally tired of playing, and he swam slowly into his father's arms when he was sleepy, Ji Mo hurriedly hugged him with a smile, gently stroked his back, and coaxed the child to sleep.

Ao Bai looked at it and smiled, and then explained: "The water temperature in Beihai is getting lower and lower, and the dragon clan there is becoming more and more confused, and they have no intention of governing the sealed sea, and it has spread all over the royal family." The group of dragons was caught by the North Sea Dragon Queen in a wrong place, and as a result, the entire family was expelled. ”

"Oh my God! It turns out that there is still a sin in this world. Ji Mo said with emotion, "Alas~ It's not easy, a family of all the old and young was expelled." But do you know where to find them? ”

Of course, Xiao Bailong's mind Ji Mo understands that the growth of the Sicilian Sea must inevitably attract enough sea tribes, especially defense forces, otherwise most development plans will not be able to be implemented.

Ao Bai pondered for a moment, "I watched them leave and return to their hometowns that day, and the Jiaolong parent mentioned it to me, so I don't know where they are at this time." ”

After saying that, the little white dragon looked at his partner apologetically.

Ji Mo hurriedly comforted: "Your idea is right, I support it - it's just that at the moment, I'm afraid I have to send Ao Mu and them away first, if you have any plans, tell them and listen to them, and I'll help you take a look." ”

The little white dragon looked at his partner, and then looked at the young dragon who had not yet been able to protect himself, and only after a while did he say cautiously:

"Well, whatever the plan is, I'll tell you in detail. It's just that this matter is still in a hurry, and the matter of the West Sea Dragon Clan Mission has to be resolved first, so I just want to mention it to you first. ”

Ji Mo knew the other party's worries, and while he was holding Xiaolong and swimming to the inner room, he comforted: "Ao Bai, you don't have to worry too much about me and Yi'er. ”

The little white dragon followed worriedly, "How can you not be worried?" You can't even beat Jiaolong, Yi'er is even weaker, and you haven't even learned how to fish. ”

Ji Mo: "......"

――Woohoo lament~ I was labeled as a scumbag of war like this!

"If you really can't do it, you can only let Rong Tuo go, I want to stay in Fenghai." Ao Bai said in a deep voice.

Ji Mo whispered ashamedly: "I'm sorry, I dragged you back...... Let Rongtuo help? Then you have to explain to him in advance that you have to go through the East China Sea or the West Sea to get to the North Sea from here. ”

"What do you say?" Ao Bai directly threw his partner on the bed, glared at him and said dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by dragging your feet?" Protecting you is what I should have done, and of course, children. ”

The crossing fish silently shut up.

Ao Bai looked at his partner with obvious repentance, and then continued: "I will discuss with Rong Tuo, in extraordinary times, I can only make him work harder, I will remember what he did for the Sicilian Sea, and the people will also remember." ”

Ji Mo lay down gently, and the little dragon in his arms spontaneously adjusted his sleeping position, and was attached to his father.

"Hey! Ay! I actually forgot! Ji Mo suddenly raised his voice and shouted softly.

The dragon-shaped Ao Bai habitually circled his partner and child together, and he lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Dragon fruit~" Ji Mo said in an angry voice, "The dragon fruit vine on the cliff of the waterhole, did you say that Ao Mu and them were tempted?" ”

The little white dragon smiled happily at once, "No, they won't find out unless they go up the hill to find the waterhole." ”

The mermaid patted her partner with her tail and said worriedly, "Then do you think they will go up the mountain?" That dragon fruit is our treasure of Zhenhai, if you really can't do it......"

It can only be destroyed painfully, and it would rather be destroyed than fall into the claws of the foreign dragon, otherwise the Sicilian Sea will never be peaceful, and the foreign dragon who is looking for treasure will definitely turn this sea upside down.

"Hmm~ The sea tribe generally doesn't leave the water lightly, and it doesn't go to climb the mountain if it has nothing to do." Ao Bai said with a smile, looking at his mermaid playfully.

The implication is: it's you, it's you, it's you, it's a mermaid but you're so interested in land, and you like to climb mountains!

Ji Mo was stunned for a moment before he figured out the sound outside the strings, and he immediately snorted angrily: "Huh? Who pulled me to say I wanted to climb the mountain? ”

Wow, you're a fool, and you've learned to make fun of me secretly......

Ao Bai smiled more happily and said softly, "It's me, have you forgotten?" Ji Mo, you are a little stupid, you will follow me wherever I pull you. ”

Before Ji Mo could react, Ao Bai said reverently: "Thank you, you have never despised my efforts, and you also gave birth to our child Ao Yi - I, I, for you, I am willing to endure any hardship." ”

"Uh~oh~ Of course I believe you." Ji Mo said a little embarrassed, but he thought about it and quickly changed to a warning expression:

"Ahem~ By the way, Bai Yan is also here this time, the way she looks at you is still very wrong, you should pay attention to yourself!"

Hmph~ If I have to catch some clues......

Ao Bai was immediately anxious, and he said unacceptably: "How is it possible? Ji Mo, don't think of me with that kind of female Jiao, okay? ”

What kind of female Jiao? Haha, what kind of female Jiao is that kind of female Jiao?

Ji Mo looked at his partner's slightly aggrieved eyes, and said funny: "Okay, okay, it's just to remind you, we even have Ao Yi, can I still trust you?" ”

*****

When the warm season comes, the Sicilian Sea under the sun is completely unspoiled and unspoiled, with blue water, blue sky, white clouds, magnificent coral reefs growing freely, fish, shrimp and crabs foraging freely, and graceful seagrass, lying quietly on the sea sand can spend most of the day.

The little dragon who returned to the ocean for the first time was completely stunned at first, and then completely crazy.

"Roar, roar, roar...... Ahh......hhh babbling...... "The little dragon crawled and rolled in the coral reefs, chasing the colorful big fish and small fish like joy, and the child was naturally attracted to bright colors, and the simple happiness infected his father.

"Be careful, don't cry if you hit the reef." Ao Bai watched from the side, smiled and reminded softly.

He habitually gets up early, and Ao Yi follows his father, and as soon as he opens his eyes, he has to get up and move. Ao Bai thought that the time to accompany the child would only become less and less when he was busy in the future, and he was actually very guilty in his heart, so he took Ao Yi out to play whenever he had the opportunity.

"Huh? Huh? Xiaolong successfully caught a fish that swam slowly and flattened with red and yellow, and held it in front of Ao Bai like a treasure, showing his father his results.

Ao Bai cooperatively stretched out his paw and poked, and commented seriously: "It's good, but it's a pity that this fish can't be eaten, it's a little bitter, let it go." ”

Of course, Xiaolong refused to let go, so he grabbed it to himself, returned to the coral, and said something to himself that Ao Bai couldn't understand.

Looking at the past from Ao Bai's point of view, on the colorful underwater corals, his own white and gold dragons are so conspicuous, so handsome, and so cute.

But looking at it from the perspective of Bai Yan, who was hiding behind the seaweed in the distance, Ao Bai's gentle and doting expression when she looked at the young dragon was so dazzling, so untimely, and so sad for her.

Bai Yan's eyes were already in a state of fanatical madness, she stubbornly thought that Ao Bai should have been her partner, if it wasn't for Ji Mo appearing halfway, how could Ao Bai leave her? Back in the day, when Xiao Bailong passed through the West Sea after the adult trial, he obviously had a good impression of himself, he was so polite and personable at that time......

The little dragon was playing, and suddenly the fish in its claws twisted and fled nimbly, "Roar? Ahh......h

Bai Yan couldn't hide it, so she had to swim out slowly, and reluctantly smiled at the little dragon that swam over.

"Yi'er, come back!" Ao Bai followed, frowning and calling out.

- Bai Yan, what does she want to do? Why sneaky sneaky behind seaweed to peep? I've already found out about you, but I'm just too lazy to pay attention to you.

Xiaolong looked at the strange female Jiao that suddenly appeared in front of him, and was startled, he suddenly turned around and swam in the direction of his father to seek refuge.

Ao Bai immediately answered the child's frightened plea for help, and gently rubbed to comfort him.

"Roar, roar, roar, ......" Xiaolong whispered, not knowing what he was talking about.

Bai Yan's smiling face froze on her face, she looked at Ao Bai's pampering and attention to the young dragon, and her heart was really unbalanced: Hmph~ Ji Mosheng's young dragon is really as annoying as him!

"Bai Yan, why did you get here?" Ao Bai asked politely and detachedly.

"Oh, it's nothing." Bai Yan immediately smiled and said softly: "It's just a casual stroll, your Fenghai is really beautiful, in fact, I have long wanted to come to Sicily to see you, but it is too far away, and I don't dare to swim over by myself......" When she said the end, she was already in an intimate and coquettish tone.

Ao Bai blinked, listening to the other party say the same explanation as if he didn't say it, he could only be polite again: "Thank you, you have a heart." ”

Then he bluntly reminded: "But you came here as an envoy of the West Sea Dragon Clan this time, please don't come near my residence at will in the future, because this is against the rules of the Sea Clan." ”

Bai Yan's face suddenly became ugly, she bit her lip, so embarrassed that she almost cried, for Ao Bai's ruthlessness.

Xiaolong raised his head and looked at the female Jiao opposite, the little guy quickly felt the hostility that the other party couldn't hide when he looked at him, and the child was the most sensitive to kindness and malice.

“…… Xiaobai~" Bai Yan complained and earnestly called, after she saw Ao Bai's strength with her own eyes yesterday, she couldn't sleep at night at all, tossing and turning, suffering, regret and anger, struggle and impatience Several emotions took turns to occupy her whole heart.

"Roar~!" The little dragon suddenly let out a childish but clear roar, that is, expulsion-perhaps it was the inexplicable behavior of this strange female Jiao, coupled with the infection of his father's guarded attitude.

"Bai Yan, pay attention to your title, this has already reminded you yesterday." Ao Bai disapproves that he is not the kind of dragon who is willing to accept sticky and ambiguous rejection games with females, which will make him feel troubled.

――According to Ji Mo, Ao Bai's dragon Geng was a little dull and even a little stupid......

Xiaolong snuggled in his father's arms, and it became more and more obvious that he roared at the female Jiao, and at the same time he also wanted to leave, and the atmosphere at this time made him feel uncomfortable.

Ao Bai comforted the child, and just when he wanted to find a reason to send Bai Yan away, Rong Tuo shouted from afar:

"Morning, Wang, huh? What's going on with this dragon? Came over to negotiate so early? But why is it only herself? ”

As soon as Bai Yan saw the one-eyed Qinglong, she secretly cursed in her heart, "bad luck", she quickly put on a cold and arrogant expression, and said reservedly: "I have a name, call me Bai Yan." My companions will come after that, and now they just come to catch up with your king, what is there to make a fuss about! ”

"Morning, little prince," Rong Tuo didn't bother to take care of the female Jiao at all, he went to tease Xiaolong, "What's wrong?" Don't you look very happy, do you want to play? ”

Ao Bai smiled and said to Rong Tuo: "Ao Yi had a good time playing in the coral bush just now, and this kid likes colorful things. ”

――As for the "reminiscence" of the female Jiao, the little white dragon didn't want to respond.

Bai Yan was treated coldly again, and awkwardly pestled beside her.

But she doesn't leave, she just doesn't leave, and the obsession in her heart supports her to strive for the opportunity to get along with Ao Bai - last time she was careless, and this time she can't miss it!

Rong Tuo coaxed the little dragon into a smile in a few words and a few actions, and he happily took the little dragon to the coral bush, and grabbed the colorful coral fish to make him happy. When Rong Tuo looked at Ao Yi, he couldn't help but fantasize in his heart - oops~ If this is my young dragon, how good would it be?

Alas~ Forget it, although I don't have any children of my own at the moment, it's fun to tease Ji Mo's children.

Ao Bai Zhengse asked: "Bai Yan, why haven't they come over yet?" I hope that the two sides can reach a consensus and negotiate the details of the cooperation, so that you can also go back to the Dragon King of the West Sea. ”

Seeing that Ao Bai had to be so attentive to Jian, Bai Yan had some confidence in her heart, and this confidence came from the fact that the West Sea was relatively strong compared to the Sicilian Sea.

"Well, Ao Mu, they should be coming over soon, I just set off a moment earlier than them." Bai Yan said dignifiedly, "Ji Mo...... Uh~ Hasn't your dragon queen woken up yet? I'm surprised that you're the one who takes care of the prince. ”

Ao Bai said nonchalantly: "Ji Mo is very hard, I need to rest more, I am usually busy, and I often don't have time to help take care of Ao Yi." ”

"Hehehe~" Bai Yan smiled again, endured the vinegar and sourness and praised: "The prince is very cute, congratulations so much." ”

Hmph~ Ji Mosheng's little dragon is just uneducated, at a young age, he actually yelled at me so excessively just now......

As a first-time father, there is no one who does not like to hear others praise their children.

The smile on Ao Bai's face became real, and he whispered: "Ao Yi looks like me, and his father taught him well." ”

"Daddy?" Bai Yan wondered.

"Oh, it's my companion Jimo, that's a name unique to the Sicilian Sea." Ao Baixu explained matter-of-fact that although he had never heard of the title of "Dad" before, as long as Ji Mo liked it, then let him go.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

"You guys woke up really early and had a good chat?" Ji Mo swam towards this side from a distance and greeted loudly.

When Xiaolong heard Ji Mo's voice, he turned his head and greeted him, happily letting his father hold him.

"What do you want to eat? I'll get it ready for you. Ao Bai lowered his head and asked, habitually caring about his partner.

Ji Mo glanced at the female Jiao with a smile and waved his hand, "I'll go by myself, I'll be busy with you." ”

Rong Tuo lay on the sea sand and said ill-intentionedly: "Hey~ Isn't that busy, what is that dragon called?" White-eyed, huh? He slipped over early in the morning, saying that he was catching up with the king. ”

"What white eyes? My name is Bai Yan! The female Jiao was furious.

Ji Mo listened to Rong Tuo's words and smiled meaningfully.

"Rong Tuo!" Ao Bai nervously stopped, he was stupid, he didn't know how to explain, he could only say sternly: "There is no reminiscence." Ji Mo, I took Yi'er out to play, what old can I talk about with Bai Yan? ”

――Y-What did you say? Nothing to tell?

Bai Yan was once again hit mercilessly by her favorite dragon, and then looked at the clownfish Ji Mo's disdain to look at herself, she was so angry that she said without hesitation:
