Chapter 40 Lovesick Acquaintance
The Chapter of the Dragon
I, I don't want to be born into this world at all.
Actually, I was born dead. I was a dead baby, and my father buried me in the rich woods of the Washi village so that they could watch over me. It was a beautiful place, with all kinds of plants, patches of farmland that were thriving, and everyone lived and worked in peace, but, because of me, it was all gone.
I didn't actually feel anything, these were all told to me by the people around me, saying that when the villagers were keeping a vigil at night, they heard me crying and hurriedly tried to get me out. At that time, my whole body was purple, and my small size seemed to be extremely easy to break, and the villagers carefully picked me up, and my cries resounded throughout the forest, and then, it turned out that my resurrection had a price, and the villager who was holding me dried up and died, and the lush forest where I was was also quickly dried up and rotted, and the drought spread to all sides with me as the center, and the grass dried up, the rice withered, and the land dried up, and overnight, the village was ruined.
My father kept me on the Gonggong platform, I didn't understand anything when I was a child, just like an ordinary girl, but I didn't have other peers around me, I always played by myself, and the attendants around me just served quietly and didn't talk to me much. Until one day, my father said to take me out to play, I was so happy that he wanted the attendant to dress me up beautifully, and the attendant looked embarrassed, but he still changed me into a delicate red dress. My father sat with me for a long time in the car and took me to a golden farmland with blue sky and white clouds, and the scenery was excellent. I was running happily in the rice paddies, breathing in the smell of the harvest, but when I reached the middle of the rice field, I felt an inexplicable panic, and a swirling gray-black vortex rose all around, and there was a child-like monster with long flowing hair and giggling, which I later learned was the illusion that my father had created according to the ghost. At that time, I didn't dare to move, I was just a child, so I started to want to cry, I was choked with grievances, I wanted to run to my father, but these whirlpools surrounded me from all sides, and I couldn't go there. In fact, my father was watching me from a short distance, and he watched me cry loudly, and he was keenly aware that the blue sky was polluted by turbid sand, and then the blazing sun shone brightly out of the sky, and the air became dry and rough, and the rice was crying for help, and the creatures around him were panicking.
"There were a few more times like this, and I gradually understood my father's intentions, and then I didn't need to cry, and I realized that it could happen if I wanted to. I have the ability to take away the vitality and make the earth dry and cry.
"Not only was I ominous, I thought I was still not good-looking, and a few boys on the edge of the rice field shouted in panic that day, 'Ugly in red'. The ugly man in red. It turns out that I'm not an ordinary beautiful girl, and I don't touch anything. Later, I stopped wearing red clothes, I always wore blue clothes, blue wide robes, and then I put my hat on, I was short, and I looked like a doll from a distance. I'm a weapon doll, just to meet my father's combat needs.
There was a high-spirited dragon hovering in the blue sky, he had very beautiful and delicate wings, with sharp and bright claws and sharp teeth, they said that he was a thousand years old, and he could mobilize wind and rain wherever he went. Once my father went to the platform of the Gonggong, it happened that when he turned into a human form to meet his father, he saw a gentle man who was humble and polite, but confident and high-spirited, the same as soaring in the sky, but there were no sharp claws, thinking of this, I couldn't help but sneer, but was caught by Ying Long, we looked at each other, I quickly lowered my head.
I'm always reminiscing about these, turning over and over these unpleasant pasts, and some precious sweetness. In fact, it has been a long time, a long, long time, since my father defeated Chiyou, he has asked me to stay in the north of Chishui and not go out again. Don't go out and harm the world again, in fact, I know the second half of the sentence. Even if I restrain my strength, where I am, it will still make the heat unbearable.
My name is Dry Fish, and sure enough, even the name is not good, in fact, I was originally called Fish, indeed, it is not good.
Recently, I have been dreaming about Ying Long's posture soaring in the blue sky and white clouds, and dreaming of him taking me to the bottom of the glacier.
"Why do you always wear a hat? And almost all the eyes are covered? ”
"Because, because my hair is very dry. The skin is also very dry. "My head hangs lower.
"Then drink plenty of water."
"Huh?"
"But if you want to be quick and swim the fastest, of course, it can't be ordinary river water, and sea water can't do it. The purest water under the glacier is the most pure water, the glacial water that has been purified by the lava of the volcano. Although I am used to flying in the sky, I actually prefer the tranquility of the water. ”
I didn't understand what he meant for a moment.
"How about it, do you want to try it?" He stretched out his hand, apparently not sharp claws.
I hesitated, afraid that if I reached out, he would feel my terrible drought and heat, and that we might not even be able to talk afterwards. Thinking, I was about to refuse, and he went to reach out and take my hand first, cold and moist to the touch.
"Let's go! When it's late, you won't be able to see the beautiful sky there. As he spoke, he took on the form of the beautiful dragon, flapping his beautiful and delicate wings, and I held it tightly, and he carefully curled up his sharp claws.
The vast expanse of snow white, the pure white glacier is pure and flawless, the thin and long white clouds in the sky hang low, the blue of the sky, so clean and quiet that people will never forget. For the first time, I forgot what I looked like, my past, and focused on seeing the world as it was.
"Just jump like this?"
"yes, but when you go down, it feels like you've been punched in the face." He seems to be very experienced.
The rising cold made me forget my constitution, and I said worriedly, "I feel like I'm going to faint after a while!" ”
"It was numb very quickly. Then you will be amazed. ”
"Really?"
"Really!"
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and jumped, with the cold wind whirring in my ears, but Ying Long surrounded me and held me up.
"Hold on, hold your breath, let's go down!" With that, we rushed towards the glacial lake.
It's like I've been punched.
The bone-chilling cold swept over us, my fiery instincts emanated, and the water that came into contact with me stirred up water bubbles, like the crater of a volcanic crater where the magma kept bubbling up to touch the icy waters. But soon, the glacial water calmed me. Not only did I feel cool, but I was also very calm, and I slowly opened my eyes, and the whole underwater was like a dream. Ying Long turned into a human form and took my hand and slowly dived.
I've never seen such a clean underwater, the sunlight shines through the ice, the blue, blue and purple crystals at the bottom of the water are faintly transparent, and there are no fish under the water. It's just us, I look at Ying Long, his skin looking more and more clear and moisturized underneath.
He poked me in the face, "How's it going?" The effect is very good, isn't it? ”
My face heated, but the glacial water quickly calmed down.
"I like to swim in the water since I was a child, and when it comes to growing dragon scales, the elders let me go less to play in the water, and cultivating with peace of mind is the right way, we are just ordinary dragons, many of them are cultivated to long dragon scales, this is not difficult, no need to work hard, in fact, dragon scales will grow in a normal hundred years, that is, because of different cultivation, the color of the scales will be different." He led me around the corner of a crystal fragment at the bottom of the glacier, and the dragon scales of his sideburns that were not completely hidden shone with a sparkling light, more beautiful than crystal.
"My father and mother have high expectations for me, they want me to continue to work hard to cultivate, and strive to grow dragon horns at the age of 500, ordinary dragons are not as good as orthodox green dragons, and level 1 cultivation is more difficult than level 1, they often teach me to use hard work to make up for my talents."
Ying Long paused for a moment, the underwater world was pure and quiet.
"When I was five hundred years old, I cultivated into a horned dragon, and I grew dragon horns. But my father said that it was not enough, I had to continue to work hard, and when I was a thousand years old, I would have wings. ”
We stopped at a deep purple rock platform, my teal robe wrapped in the current, enveloping Ying Long and me.
I looked him in the eye: "Later, you grew wings!" I love your wings, they are not only beautiful and delicate, but also powerful, so you are so free when you soar in the sky. I smiled, trying to prove that what I said was true, but the low self-esteem that had accumulated over the years made me smile again, because it must have been ugly.
"I like your smile."
Really, so many years have passed, my father has long since become an immortal, my father's sons, grandsons, great-great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren have become immortals, and the world has changed hands, but I always only remember some little things with him.
After his father's defeat of Chiyou, Ying Long continued to stay with his father, sending moist rain to the people affected by the drought, and also personally dredging the waterlogged Yellow River, everyone likes Ying Long.
Where is this dragon with beautiful and delicate wings, a dragon with sharp claws, who later fled into the torrent of time?
He's always been in my memory.
I fell in love with swimming, and when no one could take care of me, I began to swim in various rivers, and in order not to bother the villages and cities I passed, I developed the ability to run very fast, so that I could only bring a small gust of hot air with me, which quickly dissipated.
I can always feel quiet in the water, but I have never seen the pure glacier like the one that Ying Long took me to, although I like it there, but Ying Long is not there, I go, and I always feel bored.
I've been traveling southeast, probably in the direction where Ying Long is. When I was swimming in Panlong Lake these days, I always wondered, could the dragon in this Panlong City be Ying Long? Maybe you have a dream!
However, why is the brutal flash flood a few days ago so weird, I can clearly see this waterspout coming from the far upstream, could it be Ying Long in the center of the whirlpool? Why, Ying Long is different?
