Dragon?

After eating the cake, Long clapped his hands and stood up.

He told Qiao Zhi: After bringing back the formation map, he was going to perform a mission, this time taking longer than half a month.

Qiao Zhi was silent for a while, and asked him if he could stay with him for a while before he left.

Long looked at him.

Over the years, Qiao Zhi has grown up and changed a lot.

In front of people, he is Su Tianshi who is unsmiling and regards human life as an ant; not long ago, Long saw him kill a person with his own eyes.

When it was just the two of them, he was Qiao Azhi, who followed him every step of the way, like a quiet and docile child.

Qiao Zhi is smart and good at disguising. If it is said which one is the real him, Long naturally thinks it is the latter.

"Okay, I'll stay with you for another half an hour." Even though he was about to leave soon, he couldn't help but agree.

The time we met was so short, on the way back to Tianming Pavilion, there was a chance to talk, but they didn't say anything.

Long thought about the tasks he performed in the barracks, and felt that it was too bloody for Qiao Zhi to hear, and it was meaningless.

Qiao Zhi wanted to tell Long to "be careful not to get hurt", but he had said this many times.He also wanted to say to him, "I miss you very much these days when you haven't come back", but thinking that Long will leave soon, he felt that such words would only add to his burden.

It was too quiet in the deep palace, Tianming Pavilion was an exquisite cage built by the emperor for him.

When the dragon came, the cage opened a small gap, and Qiao Zhi looked out, as if he could see the sky outside a small corner.

Qiao Xi's power was growing day by day. Shortly after Long returned, he asked Qiao Zhi if he wanted to leave. Qiao Zhi said with a smile, "I'm still waiting for an official promotion. I can't go out and become a thief."

He voluntarily stayed, voluntarily was locked in this cage.

Long's bounden duty is to assist the emperor, and Qiao Zhi knew that if he left the palace, he would be of no use to him.

He actually knows everything, and his mind is as thin as a needle.

Long spent less and less time by his side, and Qiao Zhi felt more and more that he had no reason to keep Long.There are too many reasons for him to refuse such a request to let him stay a little longer...

"Is there any chance we can go back to how we were before?"

In the courtyard of Tianming Pavilion, all the furnishings are still the same as before.

Qiao Zhi stood there with a bright smile, as if in those days when the dragon walked away, time had frozen and nothing had changed.

Long was a little dazed: "Go back... What was it in the past?"

"We are together every day." Qiao Zhi stretched out his hand and quickly grabbed his sleeve.

When the dragon looked down, he caught a glimpse of a streak of red on his wrist.

——Joe is obsessed with the old, the red string that he brought out from home a long time ago is still on his body.

Looking at the rope, Long thought of the sea of ​​lovers he saw in the straw basket, that Moon Festival.

The red thread is used to ask for marriage. The little boy lowered his head and touched the braids on the little girl's head with a gentle smile.

Both he and Long remembered that sentence.

Long also tried to become a little girl, but the result was miserable, bald and blind.

Together every day... I don't know when, Long seems to have a little thought that he can't explain clearly.

When I saw Qiao Zhi hacking down the guard on the fourth prince's body today, I completely lost my mind... Forget it, just don't think about it. If you don't think about it, you won't be annoyed or care about it. This is the best.

"Qiao Azhi, how old are you? You want to play every day."

Long tugged back his sleeves and pointed to his head.

"You will marry a wife in the future, and then have children, and the children will have grandchildren... When you grow up, you will be busy."

"What about you?" Qiao Zhi didn't refute him, but asked quietly.

"I want to be a fairy." Raising his head, Long's eyes turned to the endless blue sky.

"When Qiao Xi proclaims himself emperor, you little bastard can get a powerful title and be released from the palace. Then I won't have anything to worry about in this world."

There is a vast world in his eyes, and his tone is so light that it seems that he will become a fairy in the next moment.

"Can't we... be like before?" Qiao Zhi clenched his fists and asked his question again.

Long smiled and squeezed his little face that was about to cry, and said: "I will come back to see you, your daughter-in-law, your child, and your grandson. You will live happily by then, and you won't remember Long Long. .”

"What will I do if I'm not happy?"

Qiao Zhi knew that he was not like him, and he always kept his word.

He is a dragon, I hope he will say something and leave a memory.

"Then you make a wish with me! I am a god, very powerful!"

Long winked and made several gestures: "Look, when I move my fingers like this, I can immediately fulfill your wish."

"Is it possible to wish for anything?" Qiao Zhi asked seriously.

"Of course! Mountains of gold and silver are no problem!" Long patted his chest.

So, Qiao Zhi closed his eyes.

"I promise." When he opened his eyes again, his sorrow was swept away, and there was a sly smile on his lips.

"Do you remember that time when I had a fever? This wish is the same as the previous one. I have thought about it for a long time, and I think that if this wish comes true, I will definitely be happy."

Long Tut Tut sighed, what a little troublemaker!

Before the dragon became a fairy, this guy started planning to trouble him.

……

This time we parted for half a year.

From summer to winter, Long missed Qiao Zhi's birthday for the first time.

Emperor Zheng Yang stayed with Tianshi Su all day long.He ordered him to come to the imperial study to write for himself and to review the memorials; when he was sleeping, he was awakened by a nightmare, so he had to call for Su Tianshi immediately.

Only when he saw Su Tianshi was still by his side, and only when his decision was approved by Su Tianshi, could Emperor Zhengyang believe that his throne was stable and the world still belonged to him.

The great victory at Xialuguan, Qiao Jun took advantage of the victory and pursued, unstoppable.

The power in the palace was gradually eroded by Su Tianshi, who was relied on by the emperor.

It is said that Qiao's army was supported by Yin soldiers, and there were many battles in which fewer troops won more battles.

The granary was burned, which may coincide with the heavy rain from the sky; 40 troops were trapped in Xialu Pass. With the help of God, an unknown team made a surprise attack from the rear and broke through the enemy's defense line.

All the news from Qiao Xi was good, and Qiao Zhi didn't know that something happened to Long until he received a report from Bi Chong'an.

Holding the imperial order of Emperor Zhengyang, he broke through the gates of the city overnight.

Two horses ran to death, and Qiao Zhi rode fast for three days to reach Xialu Pass where Qiao's army camped.

Bi Chong'an helped him off the horse, followed behind with his lips pursed, without saying a word.

For the sake of feelings, Qiao Zhi came here without thinking - reckless.

Knowing that this is the peak of the battle between the two armies, he may expose his identity and make them bear huge losses by acting in such a high-profile manner.

Everyone knew that Joe was acting unwisely, but no one dared to blame him.

Everyone knows how much this nephew has done for them over the years, he is their most important pawn.

The only one who is not afraid of offending Qiao Zhi is lying on the bed, unconscious.

Qiao Xi was waiting outside Long Zhanyuan's account.Qiao Zhi reunited with his brother whom he hadn't seen for many years, and the first thing he did was to punch him hard.

The handsome young man was beaten to the ground.

With a smile on the corner of his lips, he called lightly: "Azhi..."

"You let him risk his life to exchange food for you!"

Traveling day and night, without closing his eyes, Qiao Zhi's face was full of wind and sand, and his eyes were red as if they were about to bleed.

With a hoarse voice and his teeth trembling with anger, he grabbed Qiao Xi's shoulder and lifted him up.

"Qiao Xi! How dare you!!"

Qiao Xi let him vent without any resistance, and said without anger and authority: "Ah Zhi, I am the king."

Looking at his younger brother's angry appearance, Qiao Xi thought: the person who came to inform him was right, and the dragon is indeed very important to Qiao Zhi.

"Give me back the dragon! Give me back!!"

Qiao Zhi clenched his fist, wanting to tear him apart, kicked him to the ground, raised his hand and punched him again.

Seeing that the incident was getting worse, the people standing next to him rushed up and pulled them apart.

Qiao Xi was beaten once, no matter what happened in the end, he has already given as much as the king can give.

"Aren't you going in to see him?!" Bi Chong'an grabbed Qiao Zhi's shoulder and shouted.

He was almost unable to hold back, Qiao Zhi was like crazy.

——Yes, go to see Dragon Egg.

A pair of eyes lost focus, Qiao Zhi relaxed, and looked back at the tent.

——What did the letter say?Come see him one last time...

——Yes, the last side...

He sniffed, wiped the sand from his face, and stepped into the tent.

"I don't know why, he refused to bandage, and several doctors in the army were all knocked out by his tail." Fearing that Qiao Zhi would get angry again, Bi Chong'an explained in a low voice.

Dalong curled up in a ball, lying on the couch, the white cloth covered with seeping blood soaked.

Seen from a distance, it looks like a pile of rotten meat that has been chopped up, full of shocking bright red.

On its head, one of the flesh-pink horns was broken. ——In the past, if you touch it lightly, you will be beaten by it. The horn that doesn't like people to touch it is broken.

Walking over it lightly, Qiao Zhi sat next to it.

Very angry, but seeing it become like this, sad and vulnerable again.

——Others don't know why the dragon refuses to bandage, but he knows.

——Because she is afraid of pain, Long Dandan has been a delicate egg since she was a child.

After receiving the clean towel and warm water from the doctor, he carefully began to treat the eversioned scales and festering wounds on its body.

Long didn't even have the strength to open his eyes, so he used his last breath to hit someone.

When Jinpa touched the open wound, it flicked its tail mercilessly.

Qiao Zhi only had time to turn sideways slightly, and gave it a hard slap with his soft belly.

There was a bloodstain on the clothes.

The dragon's tail was the most seriously injured, the red one looked like it had been peeled off.That hit, it should have hurt more than him.

Relentless, Qiao Zhi sprinkled medicinal powder on the towel and applied it to its wound.

Under the stinging pain, the dragon came with a tail again.

He still didn't hide, but after being beaten, he leaned forward meanly, gently holding its intact paw in the palm of his hand, and rubbing it once and for all.

"It'll be fine after the medicine is finished. After the medicine is finished, I'll give you candy..."

The raised tail fell back to the bed, and Long recognized that the person beside him was the shameless, thick-skinned and thick-skinned Qiao Azhi who was not afraid of being beaten.

"Chichichi." It whimpered weakly, like a little chicken.

Basins filled with clean water were handed into the tent one by one, and when they came out, they were full of blood.

Qiao Zhi didn't know how it ended.

Dragon Egg didn't respond, he didn't know if it lost consciousness or died.

He hugged his dragon in a daze, and wrapped it into a white rice dumpling, all he thought was——no one can take it away.

Qiao holds on to the dragon's egg like a treasure, but Qiao Xi treats it like nothing.

40 troops were trapped in Xialu Pass, and Long sneaked out alone.

It did not reveal its true form until the last moment, and attacked the enemy army personally, killing nearly ten thousand of them.

Qiao Xi agreed to this death plan.

Thanks to its loyalty so far, it is almost dead, but it still does not show its original shape.

Under Qiao Xi's order, the army mistakenly fell into the enemy's ambush; in this way, it seems that Qiao Xi did it deliberately, earning the name of a clever plan.

……

With a victory in Xialuguan, Qiao Jun's reputation spread far and wide.

Qiao Xi's great reputation greatly increased Long's cultivation, and his wounds healed at a gratifying speed.

When it was able to transform into a human body, Qiao Zhi had already stayed in the barracks for twenty days.

Proving that he was completely fine by being able to transform, Long urged Qiao Zhi to return to the palace.

"Assisting the real dragon to become emperor is more important than your life?" Qiao Zhi asked.

"Yes, I was born for this." Long replied without hesitation.

"Even if you died before becoming a fairy?" He looked at it deeply with a gloomy face.

"Well," Long nodded, "Even before becoming a fairy, he was dead."

"I want to be emperor."

Qiao Zhi calmly told it that he had made a decision after thinking about it for a long time.

Long smiled.It knows best that he doesn't want to, when it's a whim.

"What's the difference between me and Qiao Xi being emperor?"

Excited by its expression, he increased his volume and frowned tightly: "If I become the emperor, I will never let you suffer any harm!"

It wasn't until this sentence that Long realized that Qiao Zhi was not joking.

"This is the gap between you and Qiao Xi, so you can't become the emperor."

Looking into his dark eyes, Long said word by word.

"Your heart is not cruel enough. There are many things that a king has to do. The food and grass I exchanged for our army of 40, this team is to save the common people in the world. Even if I die, this Not bad."

Qiao Zhi's heart is too small, if he pretends to be a dragon, he can't see others and can't bear it anymore, but compared with the common people in the world, the life of a dragon is nothing.

It was as if the dragon would not tell him that if it showed its original shape when it attacked the enemy army and rumors spread, Qiao Zhi in the palace would be in danger.

Compared with those major events in the world, the little ones in their hearts are too small...too small, very selfish, so they are not worth mentioning.
