Chapter 4 The Journey
A dragon's roar shook the sky, causing the heavens and the earth to change color.
An extremely cold dragon king covered in light blue scale armor broke through the layers of clouds and mist, like a fierce and brave warrior, soaring here from the sky.
Blue wings spread out to cushion his landing. He carried the wind like a giant bat, with a fierce eye and sharp fangs that glistened in the moonlight.
The hind paws landed on the ground like feet on cotton, and the thick ice was easily sunken down, with the sound of glass shattering and the whisper of a dragon's roar coming from between his throats.
The three dragon maidens and I unconsciously stretched out our hands to resist the gusts of air brought by the arrival of the dragon king, and the wind entered our noses and mouths, and we couldn't say a word for a while.
When the dragon king settles down and the formation slowly subsides, we can barely open our eyes and see the glory of the dragon king.
Naturally, I'm not afraid, no matter how powerful his Dragon King is, he's just a character who hasn't cultivated immortals. Now he is at most in the ninth order of Liren, and I am about to break through the bottleneck of the eighth order, and my strength is not much different from him. What's more, his target is not me, but his three daughters, which can be seen from the look in his eyes.
Thinking about it, I can't sleep well as a dragon king, and I don't know if my daughter runs away. It's a good thing I didn't run far, that is, I came to touch a fish. If he runs away from home like me, won't he be angry?
The two sisters stopped talking at this time, bowing their heads and pretending to be innocent. They seemed to be saying in unison that all this was instructed by the third daughter, Gray Hime.
Unexpectedly, Gray Ji was also very cooperative, and in the face of the Dragon King's questioning, she took everything on herself: "Father, because I was hungry, I wanted to come out and catch some fish to eat, so I called my two sisters to accompany me." Father, don't be angry. ”
"Yes, yes, we were going to sleep, but the third sister said that she was hungry, so we had to accompany her. ”
The one who said this, sure enough, was Midorihime, this shameless stinky thing!
As the eldest daughter, Hongji secretly pulled Midorihime's clothes at this time, signaling her to say a few words.
These three sisters really have different personalities, and I can be regarded as having gained knowledge. Especially this Midorihime, it seems that everyone is revolving around her.
I can't look past it, but I don't want to explain too much, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and I don't have the right to meddle in other people's family affairs. Still, I have something I can do.
Just as the Dragon King was about to teach them a lesson, I spoke: "Dragon King, you dissipate your anger first, I have good news for you." ”
The dragon king turned the huge dragon head to me, "Oh?"
There's no way, who calls this little guy such a pitiful little one?, and my ice soul has been absorbed because of this, which means that I can leave this extremely cold place. I have no reason, and I don't want to find a reason to refuse the Dragon King's request. Since Grey Ji won't bother me, I'll take her with me.
Moreover, who is so cute and lovable for Ash Hime?
"Dragon King, the problem of my ice soul has been solved just now, I can leave here now, and I can also agree to your request to take Gray Ji to the mountains and rivers to see the world. ”
I faced the Dragon King, with my hands behind my back, not the slightest fear, but as if I was negotiating with him. After all, this dragon king is just like my father, and he will often conjure up a phoenix form to scare me. So I was scared since I was a child, and this dragon king is just trying to make his three daughters not run around, and he just uses a little trick.
After listening to what I said, the dragon king was a little surprised. He immediately forgot what he should have been angry about, lifted his dragon form, took Gray Hime's hand, and ran in front of me.
Hmph~ It's all routines.
I was complacent about settling a family dispute with little effort, but I still maintained the demeanor of a prince and faced the dragon king and the gray queen.
And Red Ji and Green Ji are even more angry because of the big change in the Dragon King's attitude towards Gray Hime. All this, of course, was seen by me.
To deal with green tea, I have a trick.
"Come, Gray Hime, it seems that there is hope for your future, this big brother is your savior, thank you big brother!" This news is undoubtedly great news for the Dragon King, his whole person is no longer in the previous state, and his voice has gradually become numb.
After all, father's love is silent, and I even envy Gray Ji, how can there be a father who is so good to her. If I had such a fate, would my father be able to do the same to me?
I shook my head, dispelling this immature thought, and then looked at the stars flashing in the eyes of the gray hime in front of me, and my heart warmed.
"Big brother, thank you!" Ash suddenly knelt in front of me, and kowtowed.
I was startled by the Dragon King, and he quickly stopped Gray Hime: "You stupid, you don't have to kneel!"
Red Ji and Midori looked at Gray Ji as if they were looking at fools, but in my opinion, this Gray Ji is really my future treasure! Thinking that just now because of the strange appearance of the ice soul, she came over to protect me from the cold without hesitation, I was really a fan. Since I have accepted such a mission, I will definitely protect her!
The Dragon King pushed Grey in front of me, and Grey reached out her little hand and took my little finger. Maybe she also understands in her heart that this pull may be a lifetime, and she can't let go for a moment.
The dragon king kept the good news in his heart, and once again regained his previous proud demeanor.
The creature of the dragon is really tsundere!
The Dragon King said with a full of majesty, "Okay, Gray Hime, since the prince of the Phoenix clan is willing to take you in, you have to be obedient, you know?But since you are hungry, you can tell your father, why bother to call your sisters out here to take risks?"
However, Red Ji and Green Ji felt a little guilty in their hearts.
"Also, don't forget what I said, don't plot against her, just bring her back safe and sound when she is dying. Otherwise, I won't be able to spare you!" the dragon king finally let out a cruel word, to which of course I nodded in agreement.
"And you! Gray Ji is not sensible, you sisters are still not sensible? And Gray Ji has the courage to tell me things, what about you? I can't let out a fart for a long time! I'll clean you up when I go back!" Looking at the aggrieved looks of the two sisters, my heart was dark.
"It's getting late, so let's leave tomorrow morning. "The Dragon King is going to keep us to rest in the Dragon Palace, but I don't have that intention.
I took Gray Hime's hand in my hand, felt the heat from my little hand, and then pointed to the igloo not far away, and said to the dragon king, "Look, that's my igloo, I've been living there for the past few days, and my luggage is there." "When it comes to igloos, I deliberately amplify the sound by a few decibels.
Red Ji and Green Ji suddenly brightened, no wonder I didn't eat soft and hard, it turned out that I already knew the tricks of the two of them.
"I had to go there and pack up and then set off overnight. It's still a long way to get from here to the nearby city, and the first day is a hard day. ”
The Dragon King pondered for a moment, obviously a little uncomfortable with this sudden parting.
"Father......" Gray Ji clenched his fist lightly in my palm: "Father, you don't have to worry about me, with my big brother here, I will definitely be safe and sound." ”
Gray Hime's face was obviously dirty, but the smile she showed at this time was extremely clean and sincere. She knew that from the moment the prophecy began, her father had been worried about her future. Until now, I have washed my face with tears...... It's been seven years!
The dragon king slowly walked in front of Gray Hime, knelt on one knee on the ice, lowered his head and kissed the back of Gray Hime's small hand, without saying a word, but his eyes contained everything.
The dragon king suddenly stood up and turned around in a dashing manner: "Let's go!"
He led Red and Midori away without a hint of hesitation. But I know that his heart must be dripping blood.
Watching them slowly move away, and then leaping into the huge Dragon Palace, I also squatted down to wipe away the tears of this tearful man with tears on his face.
"Little Gray Hime, you will have to rely on me for your life in the future. Don't be tired!"
Gray Ji nodded heavily, wrinkled her chin and said stubbornly, "I never cry out for tiredness, and I declare that I will never cry!"
Seeing that Gray Ji wanted to cry and couldn't hold back her tears, I really wanted to cry and laugh.
Hey, I'm also a lover.
"Big brother, to be honest, I'm really a little hungry, let's grill the fish and eat!" Gray Hime's face suddenly changed, and the sadness on her face immediately disappeared when she thought of eating.
I was a little embarrassed by the change in Ashhime, but nodded in agreement.
"Big brother, I'll go home, I'll make a fire. With that, Grey Ji prepared to slip away.
I grabbed Gray Ji and said, "That's not good, you will be my person in the future, how can there be any reason to go back to your mother's house?"
"What's not a mother's house, that's my own home, I have to go and make a fire!"
I smiled without saying a word, urging my true qi to my other hand, and the flame was born.
Who am I? I am the prince of the Phoenix clan? Playing with fire is not easy to catch?
Surprised by the "wow", Gray Hime quickly put the fish she had just touched on the ice, and I also breathed fire at the fish in different positions under her command. I don't know where she took out all kinds of seasonings and sprinkled them on the grilled fish, which instantly smelled fragrant.
Tasting the craftsmanship of the gray hime, my whole body is about to melt. What a taste! This texture, this chewiness, so strong!
Recalling that Gray Ji said that she could do anything, it seems to be true. Just this simple grilled fish has been made by her to be a delicacy that can only be made by a special chef, and it has been praised by Midorihime's tricky woman. How many lifetimes has my Phoenix prince been a blessing that has been linked to her fate?
"Big brother, where are we going next?" Grey Hime looked at me with her watery eyes as she nibbled on the grilled fish.
I held out a finger and said, "First of all, let me introduce myself, my name is Yuhuang, and then I will be called ...... Well, just call me big brother. ”
I don't know what to ask her to call me, and that's not a bad name.
"Okay, big brother!"
I held out another finger and said, "Second, the next place we are going to is a clothing store in a nearby city." ”
"What are you doing at the clothing store?" Ash Hime still looked innocent.
I smiled mysteriously: "Of course, I'm buying you a suitable new dress (maid outfit)!"
