The dragon I raised by myself

It is not easy for the dragon clan to breed offspring, and they attach great importance to every dragon egg and every cub.However, the aura of adult dragons will make young dragons feel uncomfortable, and the environment of the dragon cave is not conducive to their growth. As a result, most dragon parents cannot raise their children, so they can only be sent to the dragon raising clan for guardians to do it for them.

Old dragons have no descendants, but they love their cubs a lot, otherwise they wouldn't have full patience with adult little black dragons.You must know that the black dragon has a withdrawn and eccentric temperament, uncertain weather, but fierce and terrifying strength. It is tabooed by other dragons, and generally they don't want to provoke it.

However, adulthood means that it is about to become an adult, and it cannot be regarded as a real baby dragon.Those newborn and growing ones are invincible and lovely babies. Although they don't know where they came out, they made the old dragon want to hold them in his arms, touch and rub them.

It's a pity, the babies are far away from it, and they don't even want to meet their eyes.

No way, who made the young dragon feel uncomfortable because of the breath of the adult dragon?The old dragon sighed deeply, but his eyes were fixed on the picture of the dragon cubs getting along "harmoniously" with the adult little black dragon, which felt really unreasonable.

Is it because it has just grown up and its aura is not strong enough?But no, for the dragon clan, the lonely and ferocious black dragon, no matter it is a child or an adult, is an existence that is not close to other dragons.

The old dragon half-closed his eyes and asked, "Since when did Xiao Hei get so familiar with those cubs?"

Yu Zhouhe noticed its gaze and pointed to himself, "Are you asking me?"

The old dragon nodded, staring straight at him, his face full of curiosity.If it could know the reason, wouldn't it be able to mingle with the cubs like Xiao Hei? It makes me feel excited just thinking about it.

Yu Zhouhe replied: "They grew up together, of course they are familiar with each other, and the relationship is also very close."

Don't look at Zai Zai who is not pretending to talk to the other cubs, but actually treats them as family members, otherwise according to his personality, he wouldn't even talk to them.

The old dragon raised his head and said strangely: "How is it possible? The little black dragon entered adulthood decades ago, and the other cubs may not even be eggs at that time. How can they grow up together?"

Yu Zhouhe frowned: "But Zai Zai just entered adulthood not long ago."

As a guardian, he witnessed the process of Zai Zai's adulthood, which took less than half a year.And after entering adulthood, Zai Zai went back to the Dragon Cave, and came out after a month.Although during that time he was still worried every day, fearing that such a short period of time would have adverse effects on Zai Zai's physiology and psychology, but fortunately, the final result seemed to have no effect at all.

The old dragon tilted his head and said in surprise, "You said you are Xiao Hei's guardian, helping to raise him?"

Yu Zhouhe nodded and said "Yes", not knowing why the other party's tone was so surprised, as if what he said was so impossible.

The old dragon said: "It is indeed impossible. The little black dragon is different from other young dragons. It grew up in the dragon's cave, and there is no so-called guardian at all."

This time it was Yu Zhouhe's turn to be surprised. According to the old dragon, what happened to the little monster he met more than half a year ago?

Except for its different personality, the little monster is no different from the other dragon cubs, and it is indeed in the state of a young dragon.Besides, he watched the other person go from the newborn period to the growing period and then to adulthood. This process was not imagined by himself.

"There may have been a mistake," the old dragon scratched his chin with his paw, thought for a while, and continued, "Speaking of which, Xiao Hei seemed to have reached the critical stage of his final adulthood half a year ago, and suddenly disappeared for a few months... ..."

At that time, it thought that Long Huai was in heat for the first time, so he ran out to find someone he wanted to mate with.Unexpectedly, when we meet again next time, the other party did not complete the mating, but also told him that he had found the person he wanted to mate with and the partner he wanted to pursue, but it was just a human being.

Thinking of this, the old dragon glanced at Yu Zhouhe, and said: "Little Hei suddenly returned to the Dragon Cave more than a month ago. It was just an adult at that time, and it said that it fell in love with a human being and wanted to be with him for the rest of its life. No amount of persuasion will work.”

Yu Zhouhe expressed his understanding of the old dragon's dissuasion. Dragons and humans are two different races, and they really don't fit together. This is the main reason why he has always rejected Longhuai before.

Seeing his expression, the old dragon moved his ears and asked, "You don't know what the consequences will be if a dragon is with a human?"

Yu Zhouhe was stunned, "What consequences?"

He only thought that the lifespan was different, and that humans would definitely leave the dragon clan first, and the dragon left behind might be in pain, but time would smooth out all the pain and take away the pain. Could there be any other possibility?

The old dragon said unhurriedly: "Dragon people have to give up their long lifespan when they are with people. He will gradually become like ordinary humans, who will get sick, get old, and die, and live a life of a hundred years in a normal way. .”

- If you live 100 years, I will live you 1000 years, and if you live 1000 years, I will live [-] years.

What Long Huai said suddenly sounded in his mind, and Yu Zhouhe couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, it was a little sour and a little sweet.

It turned out that what Zai Zai said was really not stupid. He used to think that the other party didn't distinguish between liking and liking, and mistakenly regarded the dependence on the guardian as liking for the lover, so he said those confession words without any scruples .But only now did he know that Zai Zai thought so much and gave up so much when he didn't know it.

Long Huai has been an adult for such a long time, and only yesterday he got what he wanted. The old dragon narrowed his pupils and wanted to say a few more words for him, so he said to Yu Zhou: "Black Dragon has a withdrawn personality, but when it comes to his partner, he thinks that he will live forever. You, that’s why I’m showing you the softest belly, otherwise no one can see how it shows weakness.”

Yu Zhouhe exhaled lightly, and his ears became a little hot.He turned his head to look at Long Huai, who was still educating the dragon cub, bent his lips and said, "I know."

Know the concentration in Zai Zai's eyes when looking at him, know the earnestness in those clingy and coquettish people all the time, know that he has always treated himself wholeheartedly and without reservation.

"It's good to know, so I won't say more." The old dragon hid his merits and fame and looked away, "But now I have to ask Xiao Hei, I'm very curious, why the two of us will talk about when he entered adulthood? Cognitive bias?"

Long Huai next to him was still haunted by those cubs, and when he approached, he could hear them whining loudly, dissatisfied with his way of monopolizing Yu Zhouhe.But as soon as the old dragon approached, the cubs all hid behind Long Huai, with obvious guard in their eyes.

No matter how dissatisfied with Long Huai's overbearing, in the eyes of the cubs, the black dragon belongs to their group and will protect them from being bullied by other dragons.

The disappointment on the face of the old dragon was obvious, it sighed, and did not continue to approach, it only threw the question to Long Huai, "Xiao Hei, your partner said that he is your guardian, and that you only entered the adulthood half a year ago. ,How is this going?"

As soon as Yu Zhouhe recovered, he heard the word "partner". For some reason, his face suddenly became hot.Promising Zai Zai last night was certainly affected by the estrus period, but after calming down, he found that his feelings had indeed changed unknowingly.I don't know from which day, he no longer purely regards Zai Zai as a child who has not grown up, but looks at each other with the eyes of a man, and it is easier to see the attractive qualities of Zai Zai, Gradually I couldn't look away.

But even so, Yu Zhouhe still felt a little embarrassed when an unfamiliar elder directly pointed out the matter of becoming a partner, that's why he blushed when he heard the word partner.But he was also very curious about the reason, patted his cheek, suppressed the messy thoughts in his mind, and listened carefully to Zai Zai's explanation.

Hearing the question about the year of the dragon, Long Huai didn't want to hide it, and directly stated the reason: "When I was just an adult, I accidentally ate wild fruits and accidentally turned back into a young dragon."

What happened suddenly, after turning back into a young dragon, he temporarily left the Dragon Cave, just in time to meet Yu Zhouhe who moved up the mountain that day.Just at the first glance, Long Huai, who had turned into a little monster, decided to let the other party be his guardian, and then gradually turned into a courtship object and a lifelong partner.

The old dragon suddenly realized: "Is it purple, exactly the same as the fruit I picked for you before?"

Long Huai nodded, because it was the same as the fruit picked by the old dragon, so he ate it with confidence at that time. He didn't expect that it would have the effect of making his physical and psychological mechanisms smaller.

Hearing this, the old dragon sighed and shook his head, not knowing what to say.That kind of fruit does have the function of turning dragons back into cubs, but it is very rare.Even though there are all kinds of weird plants in the Dragon Cave, that kind of fruit is one of the extremely rare varieties, and I didn't expect that Xiao Hei would encounter it by such a coincidence.

Long Huai threw off the little golden dragon who was holding his thigh behind him, and said indifferently: "I want to thank myself for eating that fruit without hesitation, otherwise I would not have met Zhou Zhou. A happy thing."

Hearing what he said, the only trace of guilt in the old dragon's heart disappeared.

The duration of the effect of the fruit varies from dragon to dragon. Some dragons will revisit decades of young dragons' time after eating it, while some dragons will only become smaller for a year or two or even a few months, without any effect at all.Apparently Long Huai was the latter, but it only slightly delayed the time when he truly became an adult, but it also made up for the regret of not having a guardian at the beginning, and even found a lover who wanted to be with him for a lifetime.

The corners of Long Huai's mouth were pursed lightly, showing an extremely shallow smile, softening the fierce aura on his body, and his soft eyes fell on Yu Zhouhe.

Yu Zhouhe's heart skipped a beat when he watched him. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he suddenly panicked because he knew that Zai Zai was not a real cub, or whether he felt inexplicable palpitations because of what he just said and the smile on his face. .

He took a breath, feeling that there were still mixed feelings in his heart, after all, he really didn't think that Zai Zai was not a real young dragon.And according to Zai Zai, he knew why he became smaller from the beginning, but he didn't confess the truth immediately after becoming a human.

Yu Zhouhe pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice, "Cub, why didn't you tell me about this? I didn't even know you were an adult long ago."

Long Huai frowned slightly, and asked in doubt: "Zhou Zhou, didn't you say you knew?"

Yu Zhouhe was more puzzled than him: "When did I say I knew?"

Long Huai said innocently: "That time I explained that I was an adult long ago, and then you nodded Zhou Zhou and said that you knew."

"It turned out to be that time." Yu Zhouhe stroked his forehead.It's such a simple sentence, who knows what it means?Even if you were not proficient in the use of human language at the time, it couldn't be simplified like this. The key points of wild fruit and turning back into cubs were not mentioned at all, right?It made him think that he was just emphasizing that he had grown up.

Long Huai watched his expression change, but the doubt in his eyes did not dissipate, "Zhou Zhou?"

Forget it, Yu Zhouhe put down his hand on his forehead and smiled lightly.It doesn't matter whether it's a cub or not, and it doesn't matter whether it's explained clearly, anyway, Zai Zai is Zai Zai, the one he raises and likes, so just treat it as if he didn't understand it well.

Thinking of this, he raised his eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot."

Long Huai pursed his lips, did not speak, but lowered his eyes, looking unhappy.

"What's wrong?" Yu Zhouhe was keenly aware of the change in his mood.

Long Huai endured it for a while, but still couldn't hold it back, and said a little aggrieved: "Such an important thing is forgotten every week, is it because you didn't take me firmly to heart?"

"..."
