182 What is the matter with Jimo? You're the Dragon King!
"Won't it?" Ji Mo smiled in disbelief, "How to say, how to say it, that's what we worked so hard to get back, even if you don't use it, you have to have a few town scenes, right?" β
Ao Bai comforted; "No, even if my father speaks, I won't agree, because I have to give an explanation to the people."
Rong Tuo shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "I just mentioned it casually, don't take it seriously, most of us here are dragons, dragon fruit is so toxic, it's fatal if you can't stand it, how can it be so easy to become a transformed dragon." β
"Woo!" Xiao Hailu nodded matter-of-factly, standing on Rong Tuo's shoulder and staggering.
"Do you understand us?" Rong Tuo playfully reached out and flicked Rong Gege's back to tease him.
Ji Mo sighed, and said with a solemn expression: "Dragon fruit must not be eaten casually, I have already consulted Ao Ke on this point." You also know that the South China Sea Dragon Clan is the most experienced in transforming dragons, and according to Ao Ke, there are always people who can't get through it, and the royal family doesn't dare to try it easily, so as not to lose their lives. β
"Don't worry, let's get it back first." Ao Bai comforted, "It's still early, I'll send you back to rest for a while, and then go to visit my father when you come back to eat something." β
Ji Mo couldn't hide his tired look, he yawned quietly, his muscles were sore, "Okay, I really can't hold it anymore, you go and look at Yi'er, that kid's excitement is estimated to have not passed." β
Ao Bai nodded, sent his partner back to the bedroom all the way, and took care of him to lie down and fall asleep, when he saw that Ji Mo had just closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep, he was really distressed, thought about it, and finally went to Rong Tuo's house to find Xiaolong, and took the child alone to swim to the old dragon king's residence.
*****
"Father, isn't Dad going?" Xiaolong was very energetic, and gradually showed excellent physical fitness, and he pushed Ao Bai forward with great energy, lively and cheerful.
"Your dad is tired and already asleep." Ao Bai explained gently.
"Daddy sleeps, I'm not noisy!" Xiaolong immediately said sensibly, "When I was in the Holy Lake, Dad slept, and I didn't make any noise. β
Ao Bai touched the child's head with satisfaction and boasted: "It's really good, you should do this." β
"Father, what are you doing at your grandfather's house? Is he going to whine again? Xiaolong swam to Ao Bai's ear and asked in a low voice, quite distressed.
Ao Bai hugged the child casually, smiled and comforted: "I only know when I go." Don't worry, if you want to scold him, you will also scold me, and I won't scold you. β
"But, I don't want to!" Xiaolong helplessly spread his claws, "Father, he, he...... Oops, Dad told me not to say. In view of Ji Mo's many admonitions, Xiaolong couldn't say anything bad about his grandfather, so he could only express his worries with his eyes.
The father and son chatted and traveled, and it didn't take long to arrive at the old dragon king's residence, Ao Feng was strictly disciplined, and he had already gone back to dine with his grandfather.
Ao Bai led Xiaolong to swim in, Hei Yun was guarding at the door, he smiled as soon as he saw it, and said respectfully: "You are here, you are having dinner inside, the king will be happy, he has mentioned the little prince from time to time these days." β
"Huh?" Xiaolong hugged his tail and quietly peeked inside, but he was immediately discovered by Ao Feng, who was absent-mindedly eating fish, Ao Feng threw the fish away, opened his mouth and shouted:
"Yi'er?"
The old dragon king raised his eyes, instantly laughed, and beckoned: "Yi'er, come in quickly, let grandfather take a good look, alas, your father is not sensible, so decent, what are you doing with you to the land holy lake?" Dangerous and tiring! β
Ao Feng had already gone out, and affectionately led his younger brother to swim in, and Ao Bai followed behind slowly.
The old dragon king glanced behind his young son, then at it again, and immediately asked dissatisfiedly, "Where is Ji Mo?" Why didn't he come? "Hmph, a mermaid is a mermaid, I really don't know the rules, I have been out for so long, and I don't know how to say hello to my elders when I come back!
"Ji Mo just came back in the afternoon, he was too tired, I asked him to rest, it must be understandable that my father was magnanimous." Ao Bai took a moment to explain, and spontaneously sat down in his old position.
The little dragon swam to the old dragon king in an orderly manner, and called out in a milky voice: "Hello grandfather." β
"Good! Good! The old dragon king had to put Ji Mo away first, hugged his grandson lovingly, and sighed distressedly, "Lose weight!" Yi'er has lost weight! Ao Bai, it's really not that I always talk about you, it's just that you see, Yi'er was supposed to stay in the safe Dragon Palace, but you didn't care at all, and carelessly took him around! Alas~"
Without waiting for Ao Bai to answer, Xiaolong had already opened his mouth crisply: "Dad took me to the holy lake, I'm so happy, grandfather, I brought fruit for you and Brother Wang to eat." After saying that, he turned around and took the animal skin bag from Ao Bai's hand, and generously stuffed it into the old dragon king's arms - the little guy has no teacher, and this action already has the meaning of wanting to gag the other party's mouth with food.
ββ¦β¦ Hey, good, good. The old dragon king mentioned that the breath in his throat was vented again, and he said with relief: "Thanks to the blessing of the sea god, Yi'er is a sensible person." β
Ao Bai frowned slightly, and began to eat dinner, not answering the other party's words, because Ji Mo didn't want him to always choke with the old dragon king.
"Humph!" The old dragon king glanced at his young son quite angrily, and personally peeled the shrimp and fed it to the mouths of his two grandchildren, which is indeed what he likes to do, and there is no old man who does not like sensible and intelligent grandchildren.
"How's tomorrow's deal going?" The old dragon king took the time to ask, "Let Heiyun help, to ensure that nothing goes wrong, with so many clansmen to deal with the land eagle people, you, as the dragon king, are responsible for the safety of the clansmen." β
These words are justified and objective and calm, and Ao Bai has no intention of deliberately fighting spirits, he responded: "Hei Yun can't move, he must protect you closely." Father, rest assured, I have already arranged it, the trading place is on Shiwan Beach, and the Sicilian Sea is turned around, and the surrounding environment is familiar to me and Ji Mo, and there will be no danger. β
The old dragon king finally caught a pleasant and filial word, and he couldn't hide his smile and reprimanded softly: "It's no problem for Hei Yun to use it for you, can you still watch me have an accident?" β
Ao Bai shook his head and said, "Of course not, my father doesn't have to laugh." β
"Hmph." The old dragon king snorted proudly, it was rare for the father and son to say a few words without-for-tat.
However, one sea cannot accommodate two dragon kings, and Ao Bai and his father have their own principles that need to be adhered to, so they are destined to be in constant dispute with each other.
After a while, the old dragon king really spoke again, this time saying:
"Ao Bai, my father has been out with Xiaofeng for a long time, and your mother and brother Wang are always urging, you also know this. Alas, there are a lot of things at home, and your brother Wang is young after all, and there are many things that he still has bad ideas. β
The old dragon king's words were too smooth and he didn't hide it much, and it sounded like he was obviously not satisfied with his eldest son.
Two children, there is no disappointment without comparison, and it is inevitable to compare behind their backs.
Ao Feng was precocious and sensitive, and he was very uncomfortable when he was present, but as a junior, he couldn't say anything, so he had to bow his head and pretend not to understand, and continue to eat preserved dried meat with his younger brother.
"The East China Sea has my father, queen mother, and a group of uncles and brothers, ranking first in the four seas, and has always been rich and peaceful, otherwise I would not dare to leave home and come to Sicily easily." Ao Bai calmly responded.
Xiao Bailong's words are right: I didn't dare to say it before, but from now on, as long as the East China Sea and the Sicilian Sea are interdependent and prosperous together, the future will be bright.
The old dragon king shook his head tiredly, his eyebrows wrinkled into a word "Chuan", and his nasolabial folds were extremely deep, and he said in a low voice of regret: "In the past, I always felt that you were still young, and there were many things that I hadn't discussed with you, and I regretted that you didn't know - today's East China Sea, looking at the scenery on the outside, is actually surging inside." β
"Oh?" The little white dragon cautiously gave a monosyllabic response, without asking or interrupting.
"Alas, though your uncles and cousins are many, you have only one brother...... However, in a family like ours, it is not a good thing to have too many brothers. Donghai has developed and expanded to the present, and your uncles and cousins have long been slack, and they all know how to fight for power and profit, form a party, and live a life of selfishnessβthe father sees it in his eyes and is anxious in his heart, but he is helpless, because they are not alone, but each has its own guardian dragon and family. β
Obviously, this situation in the East China Sea was not created overnight, and Ao Bai, who was in charge of the defense of the East China Sea in the past, has a deep understanding of this.
"Father, with all due respect, although my uncles are all relatives, and their dragon guard team was also spontaneously prepared by their ancestors in order to resist foreign enemies, but now it is different from the past, and there are even two safe and comfortable dragon palaces in the East China Sea - the dragon guard team, preferably only one under the control of the dragon king!" It is rare for Ao Bai to say so many things at one time, and what he says is from the bottom of his heart.
"Why don't I know that? It's just, it's just...... Alas! The old dragon king boxed his hands and asked, "Do you know why I stayed in Sicily with Xiaofeng for so long?" β
Ao Bai shook his head, and although he had the answer in his heart, it was obviously not suitable to say it.
"It's not for, for, in order to let your brother Wang adapt and feel in advance." The old dragon king shook his head helplessly, "Your royal brother has soft ears and seeks peace in everything, but there can only be one dragon king, and the dragon king cannot be easily swayed - alas, not long after I left the palace, your royal brother came to urge!" β
β¦β¦ So what do you mean by the Sicilian Auxiliary Dragon King you mentioned earlier?
"It's going to be fine." Xiao Bailong smiled bitterly in his heart, and reluctantly squeezed out such a dry comfort.
The old dragon king squinted his eyes and looked at his young son, his eyes were habitual estimation and inquiry, and he discussed with Yan Yue:
"Ao Bai, although your sealing sea is Sicily, you will always be the royal family of the East China Sea, right?"
Ao Bai could only nod, "Of course." β
The old dragon king took advantage of the situation and said: "I told you the truth about the situation at home just now, the numerous royal branches and the chaotic dragon guard team must be straightened out as soon as possible and taken for their own use, right?" β
"It really should be as soon as possible." While you're still in place and your mind is still clear.
The old dragon king looked at the young son fixedly, and said earnestly with a rare show of weakness:
"Ao Bai, I need your help."
Xiao Bailong looked at his father, who was getting old and weak, sighed softly, and said, "You can talk about it first. β
The old dragon king said firmly: "Ao Bai, the East China Sea needs a strong team of transforming and protecting dragons, so as to stabilize the status and authority of the dragon king, so that the interior of the sealed sea will not be scattered!" β
Ao Baixin said Sure enough, he was really guessed by Rong Tuo...... He pondered for a moment, and finally apologized:
"Father, Ji Mo is not here, I have to go back and discuss with him before I can reply to you. However, within the scope of our ability, we will definitely help, the East China Sea and the Sicilian Sea are originally a prosperous relationship. β
"You-" The old dragon king glared at him in confusion, and then suppressed his anger again, "Isn't it up to you to decide the Sicilian Sea?" What's the matter with Guan Jimo, you are the Dragon King! β
Ao Bai replied seriously: "Why is it not about Ji Mo?" He is my companion, the queen of the Sicilian Sea. β
The old dragon king's expression was extremely forbearing, obviously very dissatisfied with Ao Bai's dependence and unconditional trust in his partner, he waved his hand irritably and disgustedly, and said:
"Forget it, I can't control who you want to talk to and who you want to go to. Early tomorrow morning, don't forget that I'm also going to participate in the trade with the Land Hawk people, so let's give Heiyun and them a try of the dragon fruit this time. β
The stakes are so high that Ao Bai had to remind: "Father, the dragon fruit that is exchanged for it can only be disposed of after discussion." Also, I will guarantee your safety, rest assured, nothing will go wrong. β
The old dragon king's anger finally couldn't be suppressed, and he slammed the table 166 reading network
