Year after year, day after day.

In the past, a hundred years of freedom and leisure, just like one day. Now one day in the pool, the days are like years, and every year is like millions of years.

The water in the pool has been replaced by turbulence after turbulence. The small saplings by the pond have become tall green trees.

The prince of Qinglong went from being confused at the beginning to being anxious, and he hated to grow wings and fly out of this world. When I arrived in Zuihou, I was dead hearted and utterly hopeless.

The dragon is trapped in shallow water, and there is still hope waiting for the day when the trapped dragon ascends to heaven.

But he is no longer a dragon, just a useless white carp, useless except for people to watch and play.

The years are like knives, and the ponds are like swords. It has consumed his ambition and his will. Gradually, I don't know when it began, the prince of Qinglong forgot his former happiness and ambitions. The only thing that lingers in my heart is the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, the timid Prime Minister Turtle, the Bengji who sings to herself every day, the three brothers who always follow behind their butts, and ...... The dragon lord with a cold face and a warm heart is not good at expressing his emotions.

"Homesick...... I really want to go back to the East China Sea and breathe in the air there. I really want Zaijian to see his family, even if he dies immediately. ”

The thoughts of the Qinglong prince may really alarm God.

On this day, a bluebird flew over the sky of the pond and felt a little thirsty, so it flew down to drink.

When he was drinking, he suddenly saw a white carp swimming in the water, and he also saw that he was different, so he asked, "I see that you are not an ordinary fish, why are you in this small pond?"

The Qinglong Emperor "heard" the Blue Bird speaking to him, and his heart was excited, and he hurriedly said: "I didn't notice it for a while, and people arrested me here." You're fine, can you get me out of here?"

Bluebird asked, "Where are you going?"

The Qinglong prince said, "I want to go back to the East China Sea!"

The blue bird shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, I can't go, I can't go." ”

The Qinglong prince said, "Weishenme?"

The blue bird said, "The East China Sea is too far away. To fly over a hundred mountains and pass through a hundred rivers. to reach his borders. ”

The Qinglong Emperor was slightly stunned, and then he knew. I always thought that I was not far from home, but in fact, it was still far away.

The Qinglong Prince said: "No matter how far away I am, I will go back." Please, take me away. As long as I can go back to the East China Sea, I can give you a lot of benefits, and I will never let you run in vain. ”

The blue bird said, "What can you give me?" ”

The Qinglong prince said: "I can give you gold and silver treasures, glazed agate, and everything of value." ”

The blue bird said, "What are you giving me these things for? What is the treasure? Can I eat it?"

The Qinglong Emperor said: "They can buy many, many things, and money is omnipotent. ”

The blue bird scoffed, "Money is everything. Why can't you buy your freedom? ”

The Qinglong Emperor was speechless when asked, and said, "Then I can entitle you to an official position." As long as it's within the confines of the East China Sea, you can run amok. ”

Blue Bird smiled again: "You are really a big mouth." What are you capable of making me an official?"

The Qinglong Prince sighed in his heart, he was no longer a real dragon, and if he said it, it was true that others would not believe it.

"Then how can you promise me?"

The Blue Dragon Prince asked.

The blue bird said, "I want to eat." Anything goes. ”

The Qinglong prince was embarrassed: "I don't have anything to eat for you." ”

Blue Bird said, "I'm sorry then." I'm going out to find something to eat, so I'm going to go first. ”

After saying that, he flapped his wings and was about to leave.

The Qinglong Emperor hurriedly stopped him. He said, "Don't be in a hurry! I thought about it, I'll give you something to eat." ”

The bluebird stopped and asked, "Where is the food?"

The Qinglong Emperor said, "You can eat the meat next to my gills, okay?"

Blue Bird said, "That's more meat, not enough to eat." ”

The Qinglong Emperor said: "I am an extraordinary carp. Eating a little bit of meat from me is equivalent to a scoop of fish meat, enough for you to eat, as long as you take me to the East China Sea. ”

Bluebird thought for a moment. Said: "Okay then. I promised you. ”

The two of them made a deal.

The prince of the green dragon gave the meat next to his cheeks to the blue bird.

Blood flowed from his cheeks, and the Qinglong Emperor could only endure the severe pain. Watching the blue bird eat the meat of his cheeks.

The blue bird ate a mouthful of food, ate a good meal, and said, "You are not lying, sure enough, you can eat enough with a little meat." ”

The Qinglong Emperor endured the pain and said, "Now you can take me away." ”

The blue bird said, "Okay, I'll take you away." ”

After saying that, he grabbed the white carp with his two claws and flew eastward.

Leaving the water, the Qinglong Emperor felt suffocated again. But after years of practice, he will not be unable to live without water, but he still has to endure the pain of suffocation.

Day and night, the blue bird flew with him, and he flew and flew, and he did not know how many mountains and rivers he had crossed.

One day, the blue bird suddenly changed his mind and said, "Don't fly, don't fly." After flying for so long, I was beaten by the wind and rain, and my feathers were not beautiful, and my wings could not be stirred. The rest of the way, you can go on your own. ”

The Qinglong Emperor suddenly said urgently: "How can you talk and not count? I am a fish, not a bird, how can you let me go?"

The blue bird said: "I just ate a little meat from you, and it is already my loss to take you to fly so far." If you say you can't fly, you won't fly, you can figure it out yourself. ”

After saying that, the blue bird let go of its claws and threw the green dragon prince down, and the white carp was thrown into a deep forest.

"This stupid bird! If I find you, if I don't pluck your bird feathers and eat them, how can I rest!" the Qinglong prince scolded him, but he was helpless. The bluebird had long since lost sight of where it had flown to.

In the forest, there are many animals coming and going.

On this day, a monkey happened to pass by. The monkey saw the Qinglong Emperor fluttering on the ground, so he asked curiously, "You fish, why did you come here if you don't go to the water?"

The Prince of the Green Dragon shouted: "Savior, savior! Savior is coming! Please show mercy and save me." ”

The monkey scratched his head and said, "There is a mountain stream near here, which is not big, but it also has water. Shall I take you there?"

The Qinglong prince begged: "Don't go there, don't go there." My home is in the East China Sea. I'm going to the East China Sea, can you give me a ride?"

The monkey shook his head again and again, "No." No way. The East China Sea is too far away. Going there. Fifty mountains and fifty rivers will be passed. I don't want to go. ”

The Qinglong Prince said, "Please take me there, and I will repay you." ”

The monkey said, "I don't want you to repay." I have good food and drink in this mountain, and I lack nothing. ”

The Qinglong Prince said, "I actually don't have anything to give you. There are only a few pieces of fat on the belly bag for you to eat. ”

The monkey said, "I don't like meat." ”

The Qinglong Prince said: "This meat on my body is different from ordinary fish meat, it is very delicious, you will definitely like to eat it." ”

When the monkey heard this, he was a little moved and thought about it. Then he said, "You have to ask me to eat first, and then I will send you to the East China Sea." ”

The Qinglong prince said happily: "Deal!"

So, the prince of the green dragon offered the meat on his belly again and gave it to the monkey to eat. The monkey smiled and was very satisfied. He sent the Qinglong prince according to his words, and walked all the way to the east.

Year after year, and I don't know what year or month.

On this day, the monkey sat on the ground and suddenly got up. He said, "No, no, you can go the rest of the way." ”

The Qinglong prince said in a hurry: "Why don't you leave? You also ate the meat, you can't do this." ”

The monkey said, "Why can't I do this?" How many mountains have I walked with you, how many rivers have I crossed? How many rafts have changed? From winter to summer, how many seasons have changed? I am hungry and tired now. The hairs stinked, and the rotten peaches were not eaten. Don't go, don't go. I'll put you down, and you can go back by yourself. ”

After saying that, the monkey put the Qinglong Emperor down, turned over a few times, and disappeared.

"This monkey head! I don't believe in my words! When I return to the East China Sea in the future and return the dragon body, all the monkeys must look good!" The Qinglong Emperor was shouting and scolding, when he suddenly heard a sharp chirp in the sky.

When I looked up, it was a goshawk flying by.

The Qinglong prince said happily: "Relatives, relatives, don't go, don't go." Come here!"

The goshawk heard someone shouting to him below, and flapped his wings and flew down. When he saw a miserable-looking white carp jumping on the ground, he wondered, "What did you call me?"

The Qinglong Emperor hurriedly said, "Relative, please save me." ”

Goshawk said, "Who are your relatives?"

The Qinglong Emperor said: "How come they are not relatives? I am from the dragon, you are from the phoenix. It's related to the bloodline. ”

Goshawk sneered, "What kind of dragon are you? I'm going to fly in the sky and enjoy chasing the wind. I don't have time to talk to you!"

Gesture to go. The Qinglong Emperor hurriedly said: "Slow down, slow down! I want to go back to the East China Sea, I just want to go home, if you take me to the East China Sea, I can offer you the meat on my body to eat." ”

Goshawk sneered: "There are too many fish in this sea, I want to eat fish, everywhere." ”

The Qinglong Prince said: "My meat is extraordinary, delicious, you have never eaten it." ”

When the goshawk heard this, he was a little tempted, but when he looked at the Qinglong Prince, where was there still a little good meat on his whole body? ”

The Qinglong Emperor gritted his teeth and said, "I can give you your eyes to eat!"

Goshawk said: "What's so delicious about the eyeballs? Don't eat, don't eat!"

The Qinglong prince said: "My eyes, I can open my eyes when I eat them, and I can see through thousands of miles at a glance!"

When the goshawk heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "How wonderful is it? Well, if you give your eyes, I will take you away!"

The Qinglong prince endured the pain and sacrificed his eyes.

The goshawk pecked at his eyes, and sure enough, he felt that his eyes were much sharper, and he was very satisfied, and grabbed him with his talons, and flew all the way east.

In order to go home, I can listen to the waves of the East China Sea again.

The Blue Dragon Emperor had already sacrificed the flesh of his body. Now even Zuihou's eyes are dedicated.

Everything for one purpose.

That is, go home! (To be continued......)
