Mountains and seas can be flat

The trade in Qinglongling is prosperous, and there are many people who flow there every day.It has no "city wall", only an arrow tower every 100 meters.There are warriors and beasts stationed.The Barton will distinguish between the resident population and the foreigner from a distant country, and will check the identity of the latter and interrogate the reason.If you stay in Qinglong Ridge for a long time, the breath will be familiar to the beast, and you won't need to report every time you go in and out.

This is a gesture of active expansion, with a population of [-], and there are more and more settlements around the area every day, gradually expanding the scope.Every time it increases to [-] households, it is called "li", and it will be equipped with common infrastructure: daily water intake and drainage systems, the appointment of Wu Chang to sit in the so-called "neighborhood committee" to see the doctor, and designate small daily trading stalls.Soldiers were allocated to patrol the area, and the Siping officer demarcated the nearby farming and collection fields.If there is a dispute, it will be mediated by the "neighborhood committee" first, and if it cannot be resolved, it will be reported to the Xiechi system for prison judgment, and a jury composed of elders will make a decision.

On this day, the samurai in charge of the patrol found a strange young man in a strange costume appeared on the outskirts of the border, he must be a foreigner.The strange thing is that the barbarian didn't show his teeth when he identified a "stranger" as usual, but lay down on the ground lazily with his tail hanging down.The samurai murmured and tugged the ear of the beast, wondering if it was lazy or hungry?A large person walked in front of him, and he didn't know how to move?

The strange young man was wearing a bamboo hat, his face could not be seen clearly, and he was wearing a strange white robe with gold trim.There seems to be dark lines and streamers on the robe, which at first glance is a special weaving workshop skill.Today, the best weaving workshops are located in Yanglun in the north and Qinglongling in the south.Since he was an outsider, the warrior thought he was from Yang Lun.Put aside the unreliable barbarian for a while, and ask the young man if there is something that symbolizes his identity.

Population movements are often for migration to more livable places.To live and enter Qinglongling, you need to prepare the means of production and prove that you have labor skills or exchange ability.Visitors generally have physical properties to visually prove their identity.This young man's robe is so rare, he must have the ability to prove his identity, right?

The young man stretched out his hand, and there was a small golden translucent flower in his palm, which was very delicate, as if carved from jade, with a faint light. The warrior said in amazement: "Such delicate jade carvings are difficult to make. The paint will still Shine? Where do you come from, and what do you want to do here?" At first, he thought that the young man came from Yanglun, but this carving technique cannot be produced in the north.Qinglongling has a workshop that combines paints for various utensils, and its strength is the strongest.Maybe this jade carving came out of Qinglongling.I don't know what is the origin behind it.

The young man put away the flower, his voice was clear and clear, "How far is it from Qinglong Ridge?"

"Here it is." The samurai proudly pointed to the row upon row of "li" households not far away, "Is this your first time here?" At the same time, he was secretly curious in his heart, the young man had a nice voice, showing his chin It's also snow white and almost transparent, so it must be very handsome, right?I really want to see what it looks like.

The young man was slightly stunned: "Qinglongling has expanded to such a far place?"

That samurai sounded a little strange. When his generation grew up, the expansion of Qinglongling was very impressive. It is a world-famous large settlement. Does anyone not know?However, the communication in this era is underdeveloped, so he proudly introduced, "Yes, there are 10 people. The Zhuangzi you saw today has a hundred households. If you want to cross the entire Qinglong Ridge, which has a radius of thousands of miles, you have to go It takes seven or eight days. You'd better decide where to go first, and I'll find someone to take you there."

The young man was silent for a moment, with a smile in his voice, "If I want to stay here, what should I do?"

The samurai looked over and saw that the young man didn't have any big items on him: "You went to the 'Economy Bureau' to exchange shell coins to buy a piece of land. You can build a house by yourself, or you can buy wood. Or you can go to the workshop to work." With that little jade flower, the young man would not worry about not being able to get enough money.The samurai answered him in detail, seeing the unusual attire, he guessed, "Do you have any other abilities?"

The young man thought for a while and said, "I know how to identify herbs, how about it?"

The samurai was slightly surprised, these days doctors are still very rare and popular, every year the head shaman would teach many people to learn, but advanced medical skills are hard to learn after all.He pointed to the houses behind him and said, "This is the newly built Yinyuli. There is only one witch chief. I heard that there are not enough medical officers. You can go to the 'neighborhood committee' and ask. In this way, you can also have The house where we stayed."

Yinyuli is one of the newly expanded [-] households in the outermost periphery of the northeast of Qinglongling.Adjacent to a small stream, silver scales compete in the stream, hence the name.The "neighborhood committee" here has not been established for a few days, and the residents are dissatisfied.

The samurai enthusiastically led the young man to walk in here, only to hear the young man asking about "drainage facilities and flood control devices", "conversion rules for shellfish currency exchange", "what is the tax system", "the training mode for teenagers and young people"" "Marriage and race-related institutions" and other things that sound macroscopic, but are indeed closely related to life.Although the samurai was a little strange, but he thought that he was planning to live a good life here, and he had a long-term consideration, so he knew everything and tried to answer.But when he said that, the young man nodded frequently, and sometimes commented a few "good".This gave the samurai the illusion that he was "reporting" to someone.

Later, the young man actually started to ask more sensitive questions such as "official system", "Wu Changquan system" and "army promotion channel".The samurai was not disgusted, Qinglongling has always welcomed equality and competition.But his knowledge is limited.In the military system, he has a good understanding of the promotion channels, but it's too straightforward for this young man to pay attention to these issues on the first day he came to a strange place, and his ambition is really not small.

After asking, the young man didn't leave. He stared blankly at the dragon-shaped ornaments hanging under the porches of every house. Some were made into wind chimes, and some were hung on the corners of the eaves. The patterns on the doors and windows also had corresponding elements, "Dragon... "He asked a little hesitantly, his voice a little low, "...Long...he...presumably..."

"What?" The samurai didn't understand.

The young man's voice returned to calm: "The dragon god of Qinglongling. It's okay."

The warrior raised his head proudly. This is what he likes to introduce the most, "I've heard the roar of the dragon, it's so loud that my ears are flying. It's getting late now, but it's easy to see the dragon god standing upright during the day Come on, when there is no cloud, it can be clearly seen hundreds of miles away. I once participated in the Chaolong meeting, only a few hundred meters away from it, and the lord sprayed a big mouthful of dragon's breath...I didn't get sick for a whole year. This year The Chaolong Club is coming soon, I must take a good seat in advance."

"Chaolonghui? What is it?" The young man seemed very interested.

"Don't you even know about Chaolonghui?" The warrior was surprised when he slipped his words, but thinking about it, he would be surprised that Qinglongling is so big, he must have come from some remote place, and the information is blocked and unintelligible.Logically speaking, judging from his clothes and conversation... it wouldn't be so, would it?But the world is so big that there are everyone.I heard that in the past, the star sacrificers were shut up in the White Tower because they didn't understand the world. Although they have been "reformed" now, who knows.

The warrior then explained, "Every summer, the two-headed golden dragon and the other eight small dragons of Lord Dragon God will choose a day to fly back together. Some of them bring rain, some spread warm wind, and some can extinguish mountains Fire, some can drive away the moisture... That day is the "chaolonghui", they land around the dragon monument, and together with the dragon god, accept the worship of everyone. If you have a brave warrior, you can try Try touching the dragon's beard. Rumors say that they are brave enough, and they are recognized and favored by the little dragons. It can’t be counted. He was brought up by the Dragon God and the Saintess since he was a child... he must be more familiar than others.”

"...Bajo." The young man was surprised, and the warrior was surprised to hear a hint of helplessness but relief.

The young man looked up at the giant dragon stele from a distance, but his sight was not very clear at night, surrounded by clouds and fog, and the giant stone stele that held up to the sky pierced through the sky.The young man raised his head to reveal his chin and lips, and the warrior was a little stunned, thinking how good-looking this man must be.

The samurai stammered nervously: "Except, you can't easily get close to the dragon stele except when it is facing the dragon meeting. If you want to see it, it is 500 meters away recently. With luck, when it turns its head around, its eyes can see the color Clearly, it’s usually orange-yellow, but I’ve heard that it turns red when you’re angry, but fortunately, we’ve never seen it before.” He was a little embarrassed, and tried to make a friendly gesture, “In a few days, may I take you to see it?”

"I understand." The young man said lightly, "I'll go now."

The samurai persuaded: "It's too late now. It will take seven or eight days to go. Settle down first. Then look for a horse-drawn cart during the day. If you have more coins, you can hire an odd-armed cart. The most expensive speeding cart will arrive in half a day."

The young man touched the head of the beast next to him without warning, and even sat on its back.The samurai was frightened and speechless for a moment, and the young man continued, "I remember it was still running very fast... But forget it, it was too noisy. By the way, do ostriches still come here often now?"

The samurai couldn't close his mouth at all, no wonder the barge didn't respond to the stranger at all just now - this young man is as familiar as his long-lost master, that's not right, he should be very happy to see his master.The barbarian has no extra reaction at all, so natural, like this young man himself is part of "nature"? "You—you—" he trembled, and he didn't know what was wrong with him, and he responded to his question mechanically, "Some people have seen ostriches, and sometimes the saint will ask them to bring some precious tree species. From time to time, they will also help the Dragon God transport some things out, and Raowo also has ostriches. But very few, ostriches like to live on plane trees in the deep mountains."

The young man continued to nod: "You treat foreigners very thoughtfully and politely, and you speak very clearly. I am very satisfied with this level of enlightenment. You can pass this evaluation on to Solan in the future. I will not order you." It’s an acupoint. It’s okay to let you look at it. Someone asked, so I said I went under the dragon tablet. Forget it, there’s no need, anyway, I’ll know everything tomorrow.”

The samurai didn't understand what the young man was talking about, what was his evaluation, and he even told the leader of the army, could he see it?What does it mean to let him see it without acupressure—I saw it immediately, the golden flower in the young man's hand just now radiated light and merged into his body, and the white robe sleeves flew up without wind.The material of the clothes was not silk at all, and he had a faint halo all over his body, like a noble immortal who was not stained with dust.

The samurai fell to the ground in a daze, and unconsciously finished the previous half-sentence reminder—"Don't court death! Lord Dragon God doesn't like being disturbed by others!"

At that moment, the wind blew up the bamboo hat, revealing the face of this young man. In the dim sky, his own faint halo illuminated that handsome and handsome face, as bright as ancient jade.His appearance actually has a bright charm, strictly speaking, it is full of ruthless energy, but he has deliberately restrained a lot, and there is a long-formed shame and sadness between his brows, which adds a little bit of cloudiness to his temperament. A sense of illusory beauty and fragility.

That young man actually flew into the distance, how did he fly out of thin air?It's really possible to fly so far under the dragon monument tonight, the warrior couldn't turn his mind, he could only sit there dumbfounded, listening to the young man's soft breath and the whisper in the wind:

"It's okay. He...he can treat me whatever he wants."

--

In the middle of the night when everyone was sleeping, suddenly there was a deafening roar of a giant dragon. The sound was so penetrating that it could be heard clearly even hundreds of miles away.Everyone woke up from their sleep.In the past 16 years, the giant dragon has basically whistled during the day, and the night roar only appeared once, and that was the night of the Chaolonghui, when all the other little dragons arrived, only the most mischievous and slow-flying little dragon Chichi not yet.The Dragon God lost his temper and roared. According to people in Danyang City, a thousand miles away, the ground trembled.

But there should be a few days before the Chaolonghui. Could it be that the Lord Dragon God wants to call it in advance this year?Those who wake up from sleep dare not complain.There are few rare things, many people actually want to hear the voice of the dragon god, and are willing to have something to talk about. 10 people spent sleepless nights talking about the event that shocked the whole family.

There are no guards near the Dragon Stele, nor are they needed.The nearest building is the administrative office area of ​​some officials responsible for sacrifices.There is basically no one at night.There is no star and moon tonight, the clouds are thick, and it is pitch black in a radius of several hundred meters.

The huge black dragon opened its eyes, and suddenly there were two brass lamps in the darkness. The eyes gradually became bloodshot, turning into two bright ruby-like colors.

Surprisingly, that wasn't the only light source.

600 meters away, there is a Zhu Luan flying with its wings. Zhu Luan's feathers will emit a little red light. The young Taifeng lying on Zhu Luan's back is carrying a Fusang bow and arrow, staring at the giant dragon monument. The other incident—the feelings of adoptive mother and Master Xun Luo are indeed correct, is it that person that he sees at this moment?

The brightest light source is in the midair in front of the dragon monument, a "person" slowly floats down, he can hang in the air without any external force.Just now, he should have hidden his figure in the clouds, and he slowly descended until he was close, and the light broke through the clouds and scattered.It's like he's glowing himself.Soft pale gold leaked from the snow-white robe.It's like rubbing into the moonlight for thousands of years.

When the bright moon broke through the clouds and flew downwards, the Dragon God opened his eyes and let out the unprecedented dragon howl called Siye Shake, and his pupils quickly turned blood red.

On the young man floating in the air, the bamboo hat on his head was blown away by the wind, revealing the wind-blown hair that grew over his back.On the familiar face named Zifeng who has been dreaming for 16 years, there is a little bit of embarrassment, but it is all overwhelmed by the tide of distress.One person and one dragon are like two luminous stars facing each other in the dark universe, silently staring at each other.

The silence of the reunion after such farewell only lasted for less than a moment.

Suddenly there was a strong wind in the sky and dark clouds rolled over. The dragon god flicked his tail and raised his head from the giant dragon stele, and his huge body shattered the stele pillar which was more than hundreds of meters high.Amidst the roaring noise of broken earth and falling dust, the huge body of Dragon God was surrounded by white mist, making rattling and vibrating sounds. The smoke cleared, and a 19-year-old boy appeared between the wind and rain curtains. Inch-high snow-white horns.His blood-red pupils were like jewels, and only a pair of smallest flowing golden wings were exposed from his back, flying in the air, quickly approaching the white-robed man hanging in mid-air.

Taifeng seldom saw Zifeng take human form.When he was young, he saw a lot, Zifeng's human form would never grow up, and when Taifeng was fourteen or fifteen years old, Zifeng would not turn into a human form once in a year or two. In his words, "just like You look like an older brother of your generation”, “I’m too lazy to change, after two or 30 years, I’ll look like you’re the next generation”.But Taifeng felt that even though Zifeng's human form had always been a teenager, the cold and majestic temperament between his brows was far beyond his age, more like an elder who had gone through vicissitudes, and no one would regard the Dragon God as a young man.

But today, Taifeng felt that the master had become the right age for his figure, and even the urgent and unbelievable face shed tears like a lost child.Zifeng first stretched out his hand in the air, as if he couldn't believe it, then retracted halfway, and he was completely frozen when he flew in front of him.Don't dare to get close to the last few inches.

But the young man in white robe, who was exuding golden-white light all over his body, seemed to be in the halo of a flower, stretched out his hand even faster, and hugged Zifeng tightly in his arms.The two stars are stacked together, interweaving a more dazzling light.It was too bright, Taifeng couldn't see clearly, and he couldn't hear the sound.

The wind and the clouds turned into torrential rain, which poured down by the Qinglongling Lake.It's just that the embracing light in the mid-air seems to be able to isolate the rain from the sky and the earth, and none of them got wet.

"Xiaofeng, I'm back. I'm sorry. It took a long time... It's too far... It's really too far..." Fang Zheng hugged Zifeng in his arms, combed his slightly messy hair, his eyes Contains fog.

Zifeng broke free suddenly, the muscles on his face covered with tears were tense, he pulled Fang Zheng's collar and pulled it to his face, his whole body was shaking violently, his hands were clenched in pain, his voice was hoarse and he couldn't utter a word , seemed to be crying and also seemed to be laughing, trembling for a long time: "So you can come back." There was too much bitterness and resentment in that tone, but even more joy that couldn't be concealed.He almost choked up with a distorted expression, "You lied to me again. But this time it's good. It's you, Brother Zheng."

Fang Zheng submissively let Zifeng grab his robe fiercely, without any resistance: "I'm sorry, Xiaofeng. But this time, I really didn't know that I could come back at the beginning. I was underground..."

Fang Zheng wanted to say that he had been trying his best to cultivate back to his body and compete with Xi Yuan for the water essence. After a long time, he was willing to come back at all costs in the imaginary sea of ​​hundreds of thousands of feet.When he finally condensed back to the ground... 16 years have passed.But looking at Zifeng's expression, he felt that his hard work was not worth mentioning, so he said lightly: "...It took a lot of trouble. I just asked a little bit. Xiaofeng, you really did it. Huazu These years have been very good. It is all thanks to you, and it is really hard work. You have suffered for me. Since I am back this time, I will..."

Zifeng's expression became even more distorted. He seemed to have finally found someone to confide his grievances to, or his depression had finally exploded, his eyes were reddened terribly: "You left me alone again, and you left me for 16 years! You still don't want me to be with you Go...why are you so cruel to me...are you a saint..." He unscrupulously fell on Fang Zheng's shoulder and started crying again, the lost sense of security made him breathless.What he touched was the body temperature of Fang Zhengxin's body, which seemed to be no different from that of a human body, with a slightly warm temperature.

Zifeng clenched his hands tightly and refused to let go, still feeling far from at ease.Zifeng turned his head and bit down on Fang Zheng's exposed, seemingly fragile neck.Bite hard and deep.Zifeng didn't hear Fang Zheng's pain, and he didn't push him away. He let him pierce under the collarbone. Zifeng tasted the smell of blood. Unexpectedly, this new body exuding golden light had flesh and blood under the skin, didn't it? Can you feel no pain?

When Zifeng's vengeful biting finally raised his head, he saw a little sweat on Fang Zheng's pale face, his frown and the tooth marks on his lower lip showed that he was enduring the pain just now.Zifeng was taken aback, squinted his eyes and tightened Fang Zheng's collar, and asked in a deliberately skeptical tone, "Why don't you cry out that it hurts?"

Fang Zheng put his arms around Zifeng's waist, and said softly, "It hurts more than what I gave you, so what is this..."

These words made Zifeng's scalp tingle for a while, his anger still persisted, and he said bitterly: "You always coax me like this. That's why I know I'm going to follow your tricks. Then you lied to me again."

Fang Zheng knew that Zifeng's sense of security would not be repaired for a while, so he had already made up for it, and promised, "I won't lie to you. If you are still angry, lock me up, lock me up, and tie me up." Get up, handcuffed to the bed, whatever you want. You can look like this. Become a dragon, ahem, you can be about the same size. You can do whatever you like."

Fang Zheng said that such shameless words are also a challenge to himself, but the sky is big and the earth is not as big as Zifeng, and he still bites the bullet under Zifeng's dull eyes, "I won't leave. I am yours. You can be rude or fierce, my body is indestructible anyway... If it is you, no matter what, I will always be willing to do it. Even if it hurts, I won't be wronged and begged for mercy... It's up to you... ..."
