Small ÷ said ◎ net, ♂ small ÷ said ◎ net,

The ancient well is quiet, and the still water flows deep.

Ao Li spit out another bubble and surrounded Xie Ming.

Xie Ming lay on his stomach in the bubble, spitting water "Wow", his internal organs were about to be vomited out.

Long Jun stretched out a paw, and poked Bubble tentatively, "Are you okay?"

This is still a cub, after being tossed by him so much, the tip of his nose is red, and he looks pitiful.

The little Xie Ming coughed for a while, looked up at the huge golden dragon in front of him, with tears in his eyes, "Is there anything wrong with my name Xie Ming?"

As for such a big reaction?

"Well..." Ao Li lowered his head and raised his claws, scratching his jaw, "There's nothing wrong, you should be called Xie Ming! Mingming is a good nickname too!"

If the person who fell into the well today called Zhang San Li Si Wang Er Ma Zi Long Jun, he would break the precept and eat people!

"So you're excited?" Xie Ming's expression was unbelievable. His surname is Xie Shanziming, and he actually made Yilong so happy?

"Yes! Very excited!" Ao Li nodded, and another stream of water pushed Xie Ming away.

Ao Li hastily held up his claws, and put the bubble wrapped in Xie Ming between his five fingers, and he had to be extra careful not to pierce the bubble with his sharp claws.

Xie Ming rolled his eyes secretly, thinking that this dragon is really ignorant.

But he was soon attracted to other things.

"You live here?" Xie Ming looked around.

The bottom of the well is pitch black, there is nothing, why does this dragon stay here?

"No." Ao Li shook his head, he couldn't tell what he was cheated, after all, it seemed that he was too stupid.

"I'm here to bless you all with good weather." Ao Li couldn't say cruel words to a simple child, and could only find good reasons to explain why he was here.

The effect was indeed immediate, and Xie Ming's eyes were instantly cast with a filter of admiration.

"Then are you the Dragon King?" He leaned on Bubble's body and leaned over, trying to see the great golden dragon more clearly.

敖厉

He is just a dragon, not yet in charge of a place of water.

And why is this kid so bad at chatting, he pokes whatever hurts!

If he were the Dragon King, why would he stay at the bottom of this small well, waiting for a child named Ming Ming to come to rescue him?

"No!" Jin Long's face was black, but the bright dragon scales made it very difficult for him to realize his black face.

So Xie Ming acted as if he hadn’t noticed it, and indeed he didn’t, and asked the next question enthusiastically, “How old are you? Dragons can live for a long time, right? What else do you do besides rain?”

How old?

Ao Li broke his paws and found that he couldn't figure it out.When he was conscious, he seemed to be hunting in fur. Kunlun Mountain was so big that he only glanced at it from a distance.

By the time he entered the world and transformed into a dragon, nearly 2000 years had passed.

During these years trapped at the bottom of the well, he didn't even have the consciousness to record the time. Who can count it?

"It's very big." Ao Li was not very sure.

As for how long to live?That depends on his cultivation.If you are lucky, you will go through the catastrophe smoothly, and you will still have a thousand years of happiness; if you are not lucky, you will fall halfway, and you will die thoroughly.

But Ao Li looked down at the layer of golden light on his body for saving people over the years, he probably could live until he didn't want to.

"Yes, you can live for a long time." Ao Li never thought that he would answer a kid's question so patiently, maybe it was too lonely, he felt that he could chat about any topic.

"I can not only bring down rain, but also breathe out fire and divert floods." Ao Li thought about what he could do.

It seems that he can do anything, but he can't tell exactly.

Children's attention is always jumping very fast, and Xie Ming only listened to the general idea of ​​those questions.This dragon's reaction is too slow, maybe it is really very old, so it has to think for a long time before speaking.

Xie Ming became a little impatient, so he brought up another topic.

"Then what's your name?"

"Ao Li." Jin Long answered quickly this time.

Xie Ming looked at him with some sympathy, did he only remember his own name?Like the old man at the gate of the orphanage, he always speaks slowly, and only remembers his own name most clearly.

"I want to touch you." Xie Ming's eyes brightened, "I've never seen a dragon before."

The golden dragon's scales are so beautiful, like gold.If these are all gold, they must be very valuable. You can buy a lot of toys and a lot of meat, so that everyone can live a good life.

Ao Li narrowed his eyes, thought about it and agreed.

This human cub is really good-looking, with fair skin, watery eyes, and a soft childishness when he speaks.

Ao Li couldn't bear to reject him.

So Xie Ming smoothly stretched out a hand from the bubble. The warm and soft little hand first covered the scales on Ao Li's claws, and then stroked his body along the forelegs.

That bit of warmth comforted Ao Li at the bottom of the cold well, and the hundreds of years of desolation and loneliness slowly transmitted the heat to the bottom of his heart.

"Hiss!" Ao Li shivered suddenly, bursting Xie Ming's bubble again.

He hurriedly blew a bigger one.

Xie Ming sat in the bubble and twisted his wet clothes, and looked at Ao Li mischievously, "You are so big, are you still afraid of tickling?"

He just touched his neck and was thrown out.

敖厉

Who is afraid? !

That's Ni Lin!

It's fate for the little boy to be alive, and he dares to laugh at him!

The only interesting thing at the bottom of the well is Ao Li, but Xie Ming has little energy and will soon be unable to play.

He yawned a little tiredly, "I want to go back."

He's still a little hungry.

I don't know what time it is. The orphanage arranges to play here for a day. If he is not there during the roll call, will the dean's mother look for him everywhere?

Thinking of this, Xie Ming also became a little anxious.

He looked up and looked at the top of his head. Looking from the bottom of this deep well, the sky was cut into a round plate by the well. It was blue, with half a cloud cut out, like a painting, and also like a costume drama. The fan used to flutter fireflies.

Ao Li remained silent.

He opened his huge pupils, and began to think about the possibility of keeping Xie Ming behind.

He has been lonely for too long, and he wants someone to talk to him.This formation has absorbed too much spiritual energy, and it cannot be broken overnight.

He didn't want to stay alone anymore.

Mingming has arrived, like a life-saving straw, if you grasp it, you don't want to let go.

Xie Ming rubbed his eyes again, he was also sleepy, but the bottom of the well was too cold, he would get sick if he fell asleep.

"Did you fall too?" Xie Ming leaned against Ao Li's icy scales, his body temperature was slowly losing.

"No." Ao Li lowered his head and rubbed gently, "I was cheated and locked up here."

"Then you can't go out?" Xie Ming tightened his clothes, but it was useless, the wet clothes made him colder, "I can't go out either, can I?"

Ao Li didn't speak.

He can send Xie Ming out.

but he doesn't want

"You are so pitiful. There are so many interesting things out there." Xie Ming muttered in a low voice, "There are toys, delicious food, and annoying people. But the dean's mother is very kind to me and I study very well. The dean's mother said that I can go to college"

Xie Ming's voice was weak, he felt very uncomfortable, "I'm a little cold, but you are also cold."

So there is no way to warm each other.

The fish in the water were also cold. He touched the carp in the pool in front, and it was as cold as Ao Li.

"It would be great if you could go out, everyone has never seen a dragon, I must be the first. Will you be good friends with me? Everyone doesn't like me very much"

"Yes." Ao Li replied in a low voice.

"But we can't get out, and I can't introduce you to others." Xie Ming felt a little regretful.

Ao Li could feel the vitality of this cub slowly disappearing, and when it finally disappeared, this life would also leave here.

After all, he couldn't hold on to anything, and couldn't keep it.

Even if it can be saved for a while with magic, there is no food, no sunshine and no one else at the bottom of the well.

Xie Ming won't like it here.

"You can go out, I lied to you just now." Ao Li heard his own voice, together with the bubbles escaping from his lips, shatter on the surface of the water reflecting the small blue sky and white clouds.

"I just like you very much, and I don't want you to leave." So I lied.

"What about you? Can't you go out?" Xie Ming pressed his forehead against Ao Li's chin, as if acting coquettishly, but also reluctantly, "I like you too."

"I can't go out yet, it will take a few more years." Ao Li shook his head, "Maybe decades."

"Are you going to stay here for so long?" Xie Ming opened his eyes wide, full of sympathy, "Then I will come back to see you often, I like staying with you."

Ao Li wanted to shake his head, and wanted to tell Xie Ming that this formation would make him forget that there was a dragon here.But those eyes are so looking forward to reunion, looking forward to seeing him again.

"it is good."

"I can call someone to dig this well!" Xie Ming happily fantasized about how to rescue Ao Li. "The excavator can open the well with one click, and then use a forklift to push away the mound of soil. It only takes one day. I can save you!"

"That sounds really powerful." Ao Li pursed his lips, "It's getting late, I'll take you back."

"But what if the dean's mother doesn't believe it?" The little boy was very distressed. He saw the dragon, but there were no dragons in the world, and no one would believe it.

"Can you give me a scale? Your scales are so beautiful, they will believe me when they see them." Those eyes were shining, making Ao Li wish he could not satisfy all his demands.

But in the next second, Xie Ming himself denied this idea, "No! You will hurt."

"I'll give you something else." Ao Li lowered his head, his mouth moved slightly, and spit out a small dragon ball, "It's the same with this one, they will believe it."

"Really?" Xie Ming took the dragon ball and raised it up to look at the little light at the mouth of the well, but the bottom of the well was pitch black and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"Don't be afraid, I will rescue you soon!"

Ao Li closed his eyes, endured the pain and forcibly separated a piece of his soul, and attached it to the dragon ball, "You must take this bead with you."

"En!" Xie Ming nodded, "I will keep it safe, and I will return it to you when you come out."

"it is good."

With a trace of soul attached to the dragon ball, he can see this little guy anytime.

"Then close your eyes and I'll take you out."

Xie Ming held the beads in his palm, and obediently closed his eyes.

A stream of water shot up into the sky, violently gushing out from the bottom of the well like a waterspout, the white water column held up the air bubbles, and the small figure inside closed its eyes comfortably.The bubble burst out of the water, and Xie Ming was hit hard, rolled down the water column, and fell to the side of the well.

The splashing water wets the bluestone at the mouth of the well, moistens the moss beside the well, and the sparkling water drops roll on the grass blades, reflecting crystal light.

Xie Ming fell asleep on the hot bluestone slab, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, dreaming of a dream that was melting in the warm sun.

Outside the dilapidated small courtyard, the dean's mother's call came, "Ming Ming'er—"
