80. Although he has gone to the end of the world, he is not without worries
Junny's face turned pale, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, and he pleaded again, almost in despair:
"Prince, you can't say that, the king came to invite you back to the South China Sea twice, and the king always remembered you in his heart...... Ao Bai is the dragon of the East China Sea, and his mermaid companion is smart, they are all dragons of the East China Sea......"
Oops! The leader of the team, Long Rongni, thought in a panic: The eldest prince is unwilling to help, just relying on the strength of a few of our ordinary dragons and Jiaolong can't kill Ao Bai at all, not to mention that the eldest prince may even intervene to stop it.
What to do? Our swap mission was a complete failure.
"Don't talk about it." Ao Yang interrupted very calmly, "I said a long time agoγI am not your eldest prince dragon, call me Ao Yang." This is my territory, and there are prerequisites for taking you in, and you must follow the rules. Of course, if you get out of this lake, you can do whatever you want, but Ao Bai and Ji Mo, you can't move. Otherwise, I don't care where you are the dragon or whose dragon you are! β
Huh~ Father? Mother?
That was a long time ago, so I don't want to mention it.
Although Ao Kun did put a lot of effort into finding Ao Yang, by the time he found it, the former young dragon had grown up enough to not need his father's help.
Ao Yang sat on the railing of the front observation deck, one knee bent, the other leg stretched casually, hands clasped on knees, eyes looking at Qingzhe walking on the shore of the lake opposite.
Refusing to give up, Junny continued to plead, "Great, great, Aoyang, please help us." The exchange mission is top secret, before leaving, the king gave us a death order, if something goes wrong, our group of dragons, and the dragons, will not end well...... If it was just an accident in which Rong Tuo and Hei Ling left the team without permission and clashed with the land orcs, maybe the king's anger would still be bearable. But now, now that we have been bumped into by the royal dragon of the East China Sea, the king will definitely not let us go...... Please, help us. β
"Okay, stop crying, what's the use of crying at me? You're not my dragon, just go back and talk to Ao Kun. He also knows in his heart that this kind of transaction can't be hidden forever, even if I have no interest in letting you toss, isn't it just to dominate the four seas that he Ao Kun is planning so hard? Sooner or later, other royal dragons will also know, hasn't he already changed a lot of dragon fruits in his hands? You can't be so greedy to be a dragon. Ao Yang stood up and said slowly.
Junny was so choked that he couldn't speak immediately, and he muttered for a long time before he dubbed on:
"Even if, even if the king thinks so, it should be, and now our strength in the South China Sea is already the first in the four seas. The strong are respected, what can the royal dragons of other seas oppose? Anyway, you're the dragon of our South Seasβ"
At this time, Ao Yang glared at the leader Qinglong warningly.
Rong Ni bravely continued with that coercive gaze: "Don't be angry first, what I said is indeed the truth, the bloodline inheritance aura on your body cannot be changed, as long as the royal dragon comes, it will naturally be able to distinguish the sea area where you belong, this denial is useless." β
"If you talk more, you'll leave my territory with those inexplicable dragons at once." Ao Yang threatened lightly.
Immediately, the big white dragon Shi Shiran walked down the anchor platform, because Qing Zhe was slowly rowing the boat towards this side. It was still a little inconvenient for him to row with one hand, although the sacred lake was frozen, but the ice was not thick enough, and it was not safe to walk, so Ao Yang and Ao Bai still cleared the ice near the wooden house, which could also effectively avoid the sudden attack of the land orcs.
Junny followed the other party anxiously, but did not dare to speak again, he knew Ao Yang's character: very free and uninhibited, and had his own way of thinking about problems; No matter how well someone says it, if he doesn't like to listen to it, he will get angry.
As soon as Qingzhe's boat approached, he was dragged over by Ao Yang and tied to the wooden pier by the way.
"Let's go in and rest for a while, it's too windy outside." Ao Yang persuaded in a low voice.
"It's okay, the sun is okay today." Qing Zhe barely maintained a calm and natural attitude, but still did not look into Ao Yang's eyes.
Junny grew firmly behind Ao Yang like a tail, and his tall body surrendered deferentially.
Qing Zhe didn't know what to say, so he could only slowly climb the stairs and walk into the house.
"Ji Mo got up late again today, do you want to talk to him? I'll go down and wake him up. Ao Yang followed, Mu Ne clumsily trying to make the other party happy.
"Don't." Qing Zhe hurriedly reminded him softly, "Let him sleep, Ji Mo's belly is already very big, and he needs to rest more, don't bother him." β
Ao Yang thought about it and had to ask again: "Then what fish do you want to eat today?" β
Qing Zhe stopped, smiled and said helplessly: "Whatever you want, I can do it." β
When I came back this time, the way the two of them got along with each other changed a lot.
Both sides knew each other's intentions, but when it came to this time, they didn't dare to take the initiative. Although Ao Yang had a heart, he was unwilling to force the other party - he had forcibly brought him back from the tribe before, Qing Zhe just scolded him angrily for a few times and then quickly regained his composure, fortunately he didn't cry and make a fuss, otherwise Ao Yang really didn't know what to do.
"Well, okay, I'm not going to call him." Ao Yang smiled slightly, "But I have already explained to Ao Bai, and I will bring him up as soon as Ji Mo wakes up, his mermaid originally likes to bask in the sun outside in the afternoon." β
Qing Zhe also remembered such a scene: the mermaid wrapped in a thick animal skin mattress, with skin on its eyes, lying comfortably on a rattan chair and dangling its fish tail, his little white dragon always vigilantly accompanying him, the husband and wife were talking and laughing, rarely quarreling and fighting, even having few red faces, and their feelings were as good as something - this had to make the female of the tiger clan envious, who wouldn't want to find such a partner?
"Do you like that rattan chair? When Ao Bai comes up, I'll ask him how he did it, and I'll make one for you. Ao Yang saw the other party's happy smile, and he asked tentatively.
Qingzhe reacted, "Uh~ No need, don't be so troublesome, there are already a lot of wooden piers here." β
"It's not troublesome, it's idle to be idle, I hope you have a good time." Ao Yang said seriously, his brown eyes clear and deep.
"Hmm~ I, I, you, you don't have to be like this." Qing Zhe said very unnaturally, he suddenly felt that he had become stranger to Ao Yang, and he couldn't find the feeling he had when he got along before.
This time when he returned to the Holy Lake, he only came over physically, and most of his heart remained in the tribe.
"Are you thinking about Xitu?" Ao Yang stepped forward and asked.
At this time, Junny didn't follow, he went out to the lake in distress, and continued to discuss countermeasures with his companions, anyway, they were extremely uncomfortable when they saw Ao Bai and Ji Mo.
"Of course, he's my cub, and I'll always think of him as long as I'm alive." Qing Zhe's face was full of family affection and doting smiles.
Ao Yang paused for a moment before saying, "I know, it's just that you said it yourself, you want to keep Xitu in the tribe, your beast parents and father will take care of him, Xitu needs to be an adult in the tribe, make friends and find a partner, not wander outside the tribe, that's whyβ"
"Yes," Qing Zhe's face was a wistful smile, "Thank you for your understanding, Xitu is a small land orc after all, he hopes to become the future warrior of the Tiger Clan, so he must learn to hunt with the warriors of the tribe - uh, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you and Ao Bai are not good, it's just that our tribe has tribal rules, and the little orc must be trusted and recommended by all the tribesmen in addition to his outstanding hunting ability, so that he can become a warrior of the tribe, so he can't leave the tribe now." β
Ao Yang nodded in understanding, "Do you hate me?" I've brought you here to separate you from Seetu. β
When he asked such a question calmly, the big white dragon was really a little at a loss.
Qing Zhe stood in front of the wide open window sill, propped himself on the edge of the window with one hand, stood up straight, looked at the lake with white mist in the distance, and said a little blankly:
"I don't hate you, you sneaked into my house that night, I didn't call for the clansmen to come and arrest you, so, I don't hate you - as for Xitu, I want him to stay in the tribe for a while, let him grow up as much as possible, the little orc can't be petted, Xitu's temperament is too jumpy, I have to press him."
Ao Yang slowly walked over and stood on the side of the tiger female, shielding him from the cold wind blowing from afar, and asked, "Then why are you unhappy?" β
"Hehehe~~~" Qingzhe smiled wistfully, still not turning his head, "Actually, I'm not unhappy, I'm just like this." β
"No, you weren't like that before." Ao Yang stared at the other party's side face and said insistently.
Qing Zhe finally turned his head and glanced at Ao Yang, smiling slightly, his eyes were very tired.
After a while, he suddenly took the initiative to cover Ao Yang's slender hand, which was also placed on the windowsill, and slowly pressed down.
"Well, I really wasn't like that before, it was because my cub was here, and I had to take care of him, raise him, and teach him. So, I had to be a strong, brave mother and father - but now that Shetu is not here, and it's quiet, I can relax a little. β
Ao Yang stared at the other party's hand, used the back of his hand to feel the temperature of the other party's palm, and asked puzzledly: "Do you mean to say that you are the real you now?" β
Qing Zhe nodded freely, wanting to withdraw his hand, but unfortunately the dragon grabbed it with his backhand and held it down, but his face was very serious.
"Hehehe~~ Ao Yang, your ears are red." Qing Zhe rarely teased the dragon so relaxedly, "I don't want to lie to you - in front of the cubs, in front of the beast parents and fathers, in front of the evil dragon, the identities are different, I definitely can't all be the same, and it's not so easy to be a female." β
Ao Yang reflexively touched his ears just now, then quickly put his hand down, and asked fiercely with some chagrin: "Evil dragon? Do you mean me? It's clear that your people can't beat me, that's why they slander me like that! β
"But," the big white dragon lowered his voice, rubbing the other party's fingers, and asked a little nervously, "Do you mean that you like to live in my territory?" Do you like this lake? β
Hmm~ Alsoγ...... do you like?
Qingzhe nodded briskly again: "I do like this lake and the wooden houses here." Since I separated from Higg, I've really been unhappy in the tribe. At first, it was Higg's new companion, Kari, who was younger than me and had an arrogant temper, and if the tribe met him, he had to step me down, or he would not be reconciled; Later, then it was the last time, I took Xitu back to the tribe from the holy lake, and the words of the tribesmen were even more ugly, but I still had to endure it, alas~~"
"My bad." Ao Yang admits uneasily, "The land orcs hate me, and by the way, they hate you who get too close to me. β
"It's not that I hate it or not." Qing Zhe twitched hard, and finally took out his hand, "There are many clansmen, and there are all kinds of words, you haven't lived in a collective, so you can't understand it." β
Ao Yang said indifferently: "Since you are not happy to live, wouldn't it be good to move out?" Why even think about going back? β
At this time, Ji Mo and Ao Bai, who had been listening underwater for a while, came out and waded through the water steps, Ji Mo was full of energy, smiled happily and participated in the chat:
"It's useless to move out, even if you move to the ends of the earth, your heart is still left in place because of concern, and you can't solve the problem by escaping."
Qing Zhe hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "Ji Mo, are you okay today?" I've been waiting for you to wake up for a long time. β
Ao Bai pulled Ji Mo and walked up slowly, ready to sunbathe once a day, according to the crossing fish, that is, to see the skylight, breathe fresh air, and use ultraviolet rays to kill bacteria.
"Hahaha~ I'm sorry, the house below us is very dark, and I overslept by accident." Ji Mo said embarrassedly.
"So it seems that only my heart is left intact here?" Ao Yang muttered to himself.
When Ji Mo heard it, he stopped his brisk steps in a hurry to the bedroom, quickly turned around and said with a smile: "Big brother, I just said casually, this is your home, where are you going if your heart doesn't stay here?" That's a good thing, but I'm not homesick anymore, and when I first arrived, I often woke up thinking I had to go to work, uh, in the East China Sea. β
Ao Yang shook his head, "It's okay, I also asked casually." However, this is indeed my home. β
Ao Bai gently pushed Ji Mo, "You go and change your clothes first." β
After Qingzhe and Ji Mo nodded, the two walked into the room side by side.
"They had a good conversation." Ao Yang nodded in satisfaction.
Ao Bai led his brother to the observation deck outside and sat down, "Well, Qingzhe seems to have changed. β
"I just asked, and he said that this is what he really is, and he was asking himself to be a good mother and father when Xitu was there."
Ao Bai froze for a moment, and then smiled: "This is understandable, cubs need correct guidance, Qingzhe is a single mother, and it is not easy." β
"Are the dragons of the South Seas in trouble with you?" Ao Yang suddenly changed the subject.
Ao Bai looked up and smiled heartily, "They tried to find it, but they didn't succeed." β
"Hmph~" Ao Yang smiled helplessly, "Look at your mermaids, those dragons don't know what they're thinking in their minds all day long, they either want to kill this or that, but their own ability is not enough, and they want to pull me to help." β
Xiao Bailong's face did not change and said: "The eldest brother has always lived on the land, far away from the royal family, so naturally he doesn't understand. Although I grew up in the East China Sea, because of the appearance, there are also contradictions between my father and queen mother, and I can't touch the contradictions between the royal dragons in several large seas. β
"Your appearance? What's wrong with your appearance? Ao Yang was a little curious and asked casually.
The little white dragon cleared his throat and laughed at himself a little sadly: "My father is a golden dragon, and my brother is a golden dragon, but when it comes to me, he inherits the white dragon from the West Sea on the queen mother's side, and the queen mother may think of me when she sees me...... Hmm~ Anyway, the royal dragons between the four seas have always had battles, and they have never stopped. β
Ao Yang very keenly grasped the other party's unfinished words and asked, "Who do you think of when Ao Ya sees it?" Me? β
Xiao Bailong first carefully observed his brother's expression, lest he touch the other party's sad past.
But there was no nostalgia or sentimentality on Ao Yang's face, just a faint mockery and disdain.
"Hmm...... Although the queen mother has never mentioned you, eldest brother, I think she should remember you in her heart, otherwise her relationship with her father would not be so stiff. β
After Ao Yang finished laughing, he felt bored, because those past events were really too far away from him, even if he had really cursed his parents who abandoned the young dragon for not having a good time, but after a long time, even that bit of hatred was so faint that he couldn't hate it.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted the little white dragon so quickly.
"Forget it, don't mention them." Ao Yang said, "Do you really plan to cooperate with the Raptor tribe and exchange pearls for dragon fruit?" β
Ao Bai sat up straight and replied cautiously: "Yes, big brother, this is a decision I made after careful discussion with Ji Mo. Although Ji Mo and I are far away from the East China Sea Dragon Clan's residence, our families still live there. If we don't know the plan of the Dragon King of the South Sea, forget it, but now that we know it, we can't do nothing. Big brother, don't worry, we will discuss cooperation with the Raptor tribe in the name of the Dragon King of the Sicilian Sea, and we will not let you live here and be disturbed. β
Ao Yang's long legs stretched freely, and the fingers of his left hand leisurely tapped on the table, "You didn't hide it from me, it's already quite good, unlike that Ao Kun, after getting the first dragon fruit from me, he was so anxious that he couldn't wait, and secretly contacted the patriarch of the beast tribe, and it took so long to exchange pearls for dragon fruit." β
"Big brother already knew, right?" Ao Bai asked with a smile.
"Well, I'm basically familiar with the freshwater rivers of the Sicilian continent, and those dragons are honest and have never been close to my territory, so I ignore them."
Ao Bai shook his head and smiled again, with sincere admiration and envy in his smile - the eldest brother still lived freely. If I had grown up like this, what would I be like now? Alas, each dragon has its own fate, it is not easy for me to have today, I should bear it, or I should take the initiative to bear it, Ji Mo He is also very supportive of my idea, this is enough......
"Laughing at what? No wonder Ji Mo always said that you are a stupid dragon. Ao Yang glanced at the little brother and said unceremoniously, "Since you have decided to cooperate with the Eagle Man in the name of the Dragon King of the Sicilian Sea, then be careful yourself, I don't bother to care." β
Ao Bai learned from his brother and lay back on his back, squinting his eyes and saying, "Well, I'm discussing with Ji Mo...... Big brother, why don't you ask, why do we also have to exchange dragon fruit? β
"What's there to ask? That's the thing for you ocean dragons. Ao Yang also squinted his eyes and replied.
On the lake in the distance, the dragons and dragons of the South China Sea were about to breathe fire in their eyes, and they all stared at the little white dragon in the East China Sea, eager to cut Ao Bai into several sections with the shameless big prince dragon.
At this time, Ji Mo walked out wrapped in thick animal skin clothes, and Qing Zhe followed him.
"Hey big brother, you are also our ocean dragon, is it possible that there are still land dragons?" Ji Mo joked as if protesting.
Ao Yang said for a long time: "Yes, why not?" I am the land dragon. β
"Big brother really?" Ao Bai asked a little surprised.
Could it be that the eldest brother is ready to completely abandon the entire ocean and establish a race that belongs only to himself?
"Of course, I grew up on land, and I'm used to it, and this lake is big enough for me to live on." Ao Yang said contentedly.
As for whether he will have a young dragon in the future, Ao Yang does not dare to think about it.
"Didn't you all say that life in the East China Sea was not pleasant? So now that they have been assigned to the Sicilian Sea, why do they still participate in the battle between those royal dragons? Ao Yang asked curiously.
Qing Zhe's expression was immediately a little unnatural, he felt that he was completely too redundant in front of the three ocean dragon clans, and when he was just about to stand up and find a reason to walk away, Ao Yang grabbed him.
"Sit down, let's talk, it's okay."
Ji Mo also held him down, "Don't think too much, we're just chatting." Qingzhe, you are now the female who has seen the most dragons in the Sicilian continent, what else do you care? β
"Big brother, although we left the East China Sea Dragon Clan settlement, Ji Mo and I were born and raised there, and those memories can't be erased. If our people suffer, we will not feel good in our hearts. Ao Bai said calmly.
"If we can, of course we hope that the Sea Clan can get along with each other." Ji Mo said helplessly, "Ao Bai and I are both ordinary sea clans, and we can't do much, at most we have the advantage of a geographical location." Hey~ We don't have anything to ask for, if we have something to ask for, we won't come to Sicily so simply in the first place. β
Ao Bai added: "Ask for peace of mind. β
"Hahaha~ Well summed up." Ji Mo smiled appreciatively.
Qing Zhe listened quietly for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Have you forgotten that I am a land female?" Are you not afraid that I will tell my people all that I have heard? β
