The old dragon

Any food distribution market in the entire gathering place is run by the gathering place manager under the Black Lantern Castle, the ruler of the gathering place, and the Black Lantern Management Association.

The only thing that can provide food for ordinary residents is the food distribution market.

Except for the underground black market, no private buying and selling of food supplies is allowed.

The food distribution markets on Nongken Street are like this.

The one that Su Huan was going to was the biggest one, and it was also the one that her sister Su Qing often went to.

The staff of all the stalls in the ration market are hired by the management association, and food is in short supply and there is no need to worry about sales, so naturally they are not too keen on soliciting business, and they all look like volunteers taking the bait.

Su Huan first went to the stall selling raised pork and cut two catties of fat and thin pork belly.

Then I bought some garlic, ginger, Chinese prickly ash, chili and other seasonings, and finally I bought a few pieces of black potatoes covered in mud and a handful of weird green vegetables.

When he returned home with the dishes, he unexpectedly found his sister Su Qing sitting on the sofa in the living room that had a broken leg and was supported by a brick.

"Sister, why don't you go to work today?" Su Huan was a little puzzled.

Su Qing, who had a slim figure and black hair, was wearing a pair of washed white slim-fit jeans, a white shirt, and an old gray-yellow windbreaker, when she saw Su Huan coming back, she immediately rushed up and grabbed his ears severely.

"It hurts! It hurts! Sister, let go! Why are you doing this?"

"Do you still know it hurts?! Where did you go when you didn't return last night? I went to the outer castle early this morning to find you and couldn't get in. I could only wait at the gate! Later, a guard told me that you never I didn't know you were back until I left the side door, and you know you're back! I broke your ears today!" Su Qing, who was three years older than Su Huan, roared angrily with a pretty face.

It was only then that Su Huan remembered that he had always been home on time in the past, and yesterday he fell asleep on the city wall for no reason, and the old lady must have been quite nervous.

What I should have thought of originally, but the series of events from Zhou Qing to meeting the castle owner later made me forget about it.

"Old sister, let go first, and listen to my explanation."

"Yesterday, I successfully established a bond with Yu Chongdan and became a trainer. Our chief special trainer even took me to meet the castle master in person. After some entertainment, it will be dawn." Su Huan himself didn't know why he slept on the city wall. When he got it, he naturally didn't know how to explain it clearly to Su Qing, so he could only make up a half-truth and half-false excuse to fool his elder sister.

"Really?!" Su Qing froze on the spot when she heard the words.

The reason why she was so anxious was because she was afraid that Su Huan would be overwhelmed because he was going to be assigned to the search team.

It was almost unbelievable to hear what my brother said at this time.

Su Huan knew his sister's temper, and the facts speak louder than words, so he directly took out the pet control egg.

Su Qing saw the crack on the pet egg at a glance.

Although he has not participated in the special training as a trainer, his younger brother would often talk to her about the special training during the three-year special training, and he naturally learned some common sense under his influence. understand what it means.

She looked at Yu Chongdan and was stunned for a moment.

It took a while to react.

It wasn't Su Huan's expected surprise, but his eyes were red.

Su Qing stood on tiptoe and rubbed the head of her younger brother who was half a head taller than herself.

Some sadly said: "If parents know that you have succeeded, they must be very pleased."

"Our old house is sold without complaint."

"My younger brother will be a big shot in the future."

As a native of the gathering area, Su Qing is naturally clear about the meaning of the representative of the master.

He also learned from Su Huan that during the three years that his younger brother participated in the special training, there were six to seven hundred trainees coming and going from the castle trainer special training, and only 700 people, including Su Huan, actually became trainers in the end.

As long as these people can live and grow up, they will all be great figures in the gathering place in the future.

Su Huan reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her sister's eyes, and patted her on the back lightly.

He knew that Su Qing had had a hard time in the past three years, at least it would not be easier than his younger brother.

[6.6, Dragon Scale and Dragon Transformation Mystery]

Su Qing, who has always been frugal, learned that Su Huan had become a trainer, for the first time, she did not blame her younger brother for spending [-] steel grams to buy a bunch of ingredients.

At noon, Su Huan volunteered to cook a dish of braised pork with potatoes that he hadn't eaten for many years. Although the taste was far worse than that of his elder sister, the two siblings ate very happily.

In the afternoon, Su Qing left home to go to work.

Even though she knew that her younger brother Su Huan had become a trainer, in Su Qing's eyes work was work, and it was this job that supported the two of them after their parents passed away.

She is grateful for the job.

Because she was worried about her younger brother, it was unprecedented for her to take half a day off.

No matter how much Su Huan persuaded her to take a day off, she still couldn't persuade her sister's eagerness to go to work.

Su Huan could only cultivate a relationship with the little guy in Yu Chong Dan at home alone.

In the afternoon, Su Huan, who was cultivating a relationship with the little guy, heard a knock on the door.

"Who is coming back to his home at this time?" He was a little puzzled at first.

But from the cat's eyes, seeing the other party's attire, he could guess the purpose of this person's visit.

Whether the opponent is wearing a black combat uniform or the black lighthouse logo on his chest, they all show his identity.

Members of the castle master's secret guard, the Black Lantern Guards, are composed of elite soldiers selected from the army.

Obviously, the other party came to deliver what the castle owner promised.

"Hello, Mr. Su Huan, this is an item sent by the owner of the castle. Please show your identity." The member of the Black Lantern Guards said in a business-like manner.

Su Huan directly handed his ID card to the other party, and the other party took out a black box the size of two palms from the suitcase after confirmation, and handed it to Su Huan solemnly.

"Please keep it safe, and I will bid you farewell."

Su Huan impatiently closed the door and opened the box.

A rust-red scale full of metallic texture appeared in front of him, with a clear sense of coercion on the scale, as if a powerful and dangerous creature was roaring at Su Huan in front of him.

This scale is the size of a palm and two or three fingernails thick.

When Su Huan took it out of the box, it felt very cold and unusually heavy.

Usually a metal of this size weighs no more than one or two catties, but holding this scale directly made Su Huan's palm sink, and it was very strenuous.

It weighs eight or nine catties.

Su Huan brought the scales to Yu Chong's egg, and the little guy inside the egg instantly became excited.
