Chapter 10: The Youngster's Choice
"Let's make a bet. I'll go in now, and the people at the bronze and wooden gate won't stop me, but if I can go in, you can give me this basket of peaches. Zhu Minglang was angry and said to this peach seller.
"Okay, but what if I win?" said the peach seller, her rye-colored skin in contrast to her bright eyes.
"I bought all your peaches. ”
"Look at how you dress, it doesn't look like you have this money. "Selling the peach girl.
"You don't care!"
Others enrolled, not to mention how charming they must be dressed for the time being, and they must be worthy of the four words of dignified and tidy, Zhu Minglang took care of the flowers along the way to the ancestral dragon city-state, and then walked to this dragon training academy, and he didn't even have a chance to take a bath, and the rough cloth made him look a little sloppy.
Zhu Minglang himself didn't want to be like this, he was poor and poor before, and there was still no big problem with his appearance, he would be treated as a beggar, but he also encountered a bandit and fell into trouble......
Stepping into the Baiyan Bridge, there are gradually fewer hawkers, and when you get close to the Tongmu Gate, you will be even more quiet and tidy in an elegant place.
"I'm here to enroll, here's my letterhead. Zhu Minglang handed over his admission letter, which was quite polite.
"How did you make it look like this?" asked the doorkeeper.
"I went out to train, met bandits on the road, and desperately kept this letterhead. Zhu Minglang explained casually.
"Well, go to the front and take the school badge, and wait next to it for a while. The doorkeeper nodded, and motioned to the people behind him to lead Zhu Minglang in.
Zhu Minglang put away the letterhead, deliberately turned his head and glanced at the rye-skinned girl selling peaches at the bridge, ready to grin at her.
However, the peach seller seems to be arguing with a fat woman about the price, and the argument is full of hands.
She had completely forgotten about the bet she had just made!
The cold wind in the lake makes someone's figure a little bleak.
Zhu Minglang could only sigh in the end and walked towards the gate.
Hey, it's worse than losing!
After passing the gate, the bridge was gone, and it turned out that the Baiyan Bridge was just a broken bridge, and behind the door was a moon-shaped abutment, which slowly extended to the clear lake water.
In the lake, a long-necked dragon with a broad back was waiting at the abutment, the size of a single room, with a neck long enough to reach from under the water to the bridge door.
The long-necked dragon has a tight and smooth skin, and its body size is large, but it gives people a docile and demure feeling, and it doesn't feel any pressure to get along with each other at close range, and it really doesn't look like a species compared to Luo Xiao's gilded fire dragon.
"I've got enough of a car, and we're ready to go. The uncle who was guarding the door soon brought four more men over.
There were already five people on the back of the long-necked dragon, plus Zhu Minglang and the four later, a total of ten.
Ten people and one dragon car cross the lake.
"Li Shaoying, you are the hope of our whole village, you have to become a dragon herder no matter what. On the bridge abutment, a middle-aged man who came to see him off shouted loudly.
Li Shaoying looked embarrassed, there are so many alumni around her.
"It doesn't matter if you don't succeed, go back to the village early, the cattle and sheep at home have to be put in the pasture, they can't eat enough, they can't save fat, they can't save milk if they don't get fat, they can't survive without milk, those little lambs and little cowboys can't survive the winter." The herding man continued.
There was a low laugh all around, especially the female students of the academy who were about to take the long-necked dragon across the lake, who covered their mouths but couldn't stop laughing.
The young man named Li Shaoying was even more eager to plunge into the lake, and he impatiently sent the herding man who came to see him off: "I know, I know, Uncle Hua, go back quickly." ”
"Remember to give the bag of smoked venison to the classmates around you, you are not familiar with the place, you must know how to build a good relationship with your classmates and teachers, so that you are not easy to be bullied. ”
"Uncle, go back, please. ”
"Oops, I forgot to give you the medicinal wine, come on, this one was beaten and wiped on the wound, and it was so fast. ”
Finally, the enthusiastic and meticulous herding man was persuaded to leave.
If he doesn't leave, the new student named Li Shaoying will probably really commit suicide by throwing himself into the lake.
"The three of you are late for admission, and when you go to the Dragon Storage Palace, it is estimated that you can only select some young dragons left by others, even if the road is far away, you should set off early." The gatekeeper said to Li Shaoying, Zhu Minglang and another cold boy.
"You guys are also new to school?" Li Shaoying was a little surprised, and looked at Zhu Minglang and the cold boy.
Gao Leng Gongzi didn't talk at all, and it could be seen that he didn't have the slightest intention of dealing with Li Shaoying, a young dragon student who came from a poor mountain village.
Li Shaoying took the initiative to talk, but the man ignored him, which was inevitably a little embarrassing.
Then his eyes fell on Zhu Minglang, and his face suddenly showed a look of consternation.
As a cowherd baby, Li Shaoying is already very poor and sour, and her self-esteem was also hit hard in the laughter of the classmates around her just now, but she didn't expect that there were people who looked more depressed than herself, and he was also a student of How to Train Your Dragon?
Don't say anything about the gatekeeper, Li Shaoying still thinks that this person is a kitchen handyman at the Dragon Training Academy.
"Are you also a student?" asked Li Shaoying.
"Yes, Zhu Minglang. "I wish Minglang to maintain courtesy and be friendly and approachable.
"Oh. Li Shaoying responded perfunctorily, but did not return the salute.
Sure enough, after learning that Zhu Minglang was also a new student, the laughter of several other people came out again.
Seeing the reactions of the people around him, Zhu Minglang was not as uncomfortable as Li Shaoying had shown before, and his face was indifferent.
Walking the rivers and lakes, thick skin is also a rare craft.
The lake breeze was refreshing, and the long-necked dragon carried ten people slowly, approaching the lake continent little by little, and sailed towards the palace that countless people dreamed of-the Dragon Training Academy.
......
At the head of the bridge, after the girl who had just sold several catties of ripe peaches was idle, she suddenly remembered something, and turned her head to look at the tightly closed paulownia gate.
Soon a look of surprise crawled all over her cheeks.
"Thrown into the lake?"
"It's pathetic. The girl muttered to herself.
......
Chulong Palace
Every student who enters the school, regardless of whether they already have a young spirit or not, will get a chance to choose a dragon.
Despite the art of dragon recognition, choosing a dragon from thousands of mediocre young spirits is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and even more often than not, making a bet!
Zhu Minglang, Li Shaoying, and Gao Leng Gongzi were taken to the Dragon Storage Palace, and there were so many young spirits and young spirit eggs inside that they were like pebbles in the river, and they were dizzying.
"Choose, after choosing, go to the old gentleman in the hall to register, make a mark, and the young spirit will belong to you. "The gatekeeper is also very competent, and sent them all the way here, and only left after explaining clearly.
Li Shaoying was a little expectant, and walked quickly to the nest of young spirits, staring at a group of blue bird spirits that were still swaddling, as if they were identifying their species.
Zhu Minglang also followed the spread of the road and observed slowly.
There are many categories, such as bird spirits, river spirits, beast spirits, ancient spirits, poisonous demons, stone demons, and many wurm, pseudo-dragons, and miscellaneous dragon juveniles that obviously have dragon blood, but they have not really turned into dragons, but they have already shown amazing physique and extraordinary characteristics of dragons!
"Heh, you chose quite seriously, didn't you know anything about the dragon training academy before you entered the school, and there may not be a real dragon from the thousand-headed young spirit here, for you to choose here, just to give you a little hope as a dragon training student. At this time, the cold boy spoke.
Zhu Minglang and Li Shaoying looked at him at the same time.
It's not dumb.
Zhu Minglang nodded secretly and asked, "We really don't know much about each other, you tell us about it." ”
"Just grab one and don't rub it off. If you have time to pick up garbage here, you might as well spend more effort domesticating your own young spirits. Gao Lengnan said.
Li Shaoying smiled.
Indeed, the young spirits given by the academy for free will not be much better, otherwise everyone who enters the dragon training academy can be a dragon herder, how can there be a large number of people lingering under the dragon gate.
Li Shaoying finally picked the one that seemed to be the most aggressive among the bird spirits, and carried it in her hand, and she didn't seem to attach so much importance to it.
Zhu Minglang scratched his head.
His situation was a little awkward.
Most of those who can enter the Dragon Training Academy already have a young spirit with good potential, and some of them are even close to jumping to the door.
Li Shaoying obviously has her own young spirit, and Gao Leng Gongzi is even more as if he already has a young dragon.
Bai Yi is still sleeping in the ice chrysalis, Zhu Minglang has nothing at the moment, barely counted as a moth relation, and was forced in.
It seems that he still has to rely on the relief of the academy to make up for his enrollment.
However, this is Zhu Minglang's start. Zhu Minglang didn't bother to listen to the arrogant elaboration of the cold boy, and still chose seriously.
Knowing the dragon is like appreciating the treasure......
It takes a lot of eyesight and a little bit of luck.
It just so happens that Zhu Minglang doesn't have either.
Blind and backed.
But there must still be a sense of ceremony, and the attitude must be correct.
"Can you hurry up!" Gao Leng Gongzi's tone was aggravated.
Zhu Minglang didn't hear it, he carefully observed the little creatures here, some were still in the young spirit eggs, some had just broken out of their shells, and some had already grown feathers and teeth, which had a trace of destructive power to the hand-built nest......
