Long: "Jiang, Ke?"

Little Stone nodded: "This is my name, my name is Jiang Ke."

A white butterfly landed on the tip of the grass in front of Little Stone, and seemed to be looking at him intently.

The dragon said, "I remember your name."

Little Stone: "Do you have a name?"

"Butterfly" flapped its wings: "My name is Long."

Little Stone: "But dragon is not a name."

Long said: "They all call me Long."

Little Stone: "Okay then."

Little Stone lowered his head and scratched his name on the ground.

"Dragon," Little Stone asked, "will I become a high-ranking official in the future?"

Long asked back: "Do you want to be a high official?"

Little Stone: “I don’t know.”

Long said: "Don't be afraid, you will know the answers to many questions when you grow up."

Long added: "Grandma Mountain God told me so, so you have to grow up well, and I have to grow up well too."

The man and the dragon sat quietly for a long time, until the sun moved westward and the evening breeze gradually rose.

Little Stone stood up and brushed off the grass clippings on his butt.

Little Stone: "I'm leaving."

Long was a little sad: "Then remember to come back to see me often, I'll wait for you!"

Little Stone nodded and promised firmly: "I will definitely come back to see you."

Dragon: "Goodbye!"

Little Stone led the lamb, raised his hand and waved it, without looking back, walking down the mountain.

Little Stone went down the mountain and didn't come back for a long time.

A downy snow fell from the sky, blowing into the temple and landing on the black stone sculptures.

A dragon was so bored that he fell asleep.

When he woke up again, he didn't know what day it was.

The dragon coiled up into a ball and poked its head out of the water as it woke up.

He was still a little dragon, covered with white scales. The sunlight shining on the scales flashed with colorful light.

The dragon rolled over, causing the cave to rumble. Several rocks fell from the dome and smashed into the pool, completely waking the dragon from his sleep.

The dragon opened his eyes and didn't see the little stone, so he felt a little disappointed and leaned his dragon head against the stone slab where the little stone often sat. He was quite careful in his movements, making sure not to touch a small wooden statue on the slab.

The dragon rubbed its head against the wood carving, and a white butterfly condensed from between its eyebrows.

The white butterfly flapped its wings and landed on the small wooden statue.

The white butterfly's wings were drooping, and it seemed to be in low spirits.

Most of the dragon's body was still submerged at the bottom of the pool, almost occupying half of the space.

The dragon retracted its head into the pool, and soon a child appeared on the surface of the pool.

The child looked about eight or nine years old, older than Xiao Shitou was at the beginning.

The biggest advantage of a grown-up dragon is that it can drive people out of the water.

Even though it looked like a child, the two branch-like horns on the dragon's head were not retracted, and its eyes were not open.

The dragon walked on the surface of the lake. Every time he took a step, a small piece of ice crystal would form on the surface of the lake. The ice crystals supported his body and prevented him from falling directly into the water.

Long walked towards the stone slab and picked up the wood carving on it.

The white butterfly on the wood carving landed on his branch-like horn, folded its wings, and looked like a small white leaf.

Although he did not open his eyes, it did not affect his vision.

The white butterflies are his eyes, his antennae can capture waves in the air, and infrasound can convey the information he needs.

Long supported himself on the stone wall and walked slowly out. The space was a little cramped for his current height, but this small space did not have any effect on him.

Long walked out step by step. He was not wearing shoes. If you look closely, you can see that he was not stepping directly on the ground.

Before he landed, an ice flower appeared out of nowhere on the ground.

After the dragon stepped on it, the ice shattered and turned into water to nourish the land again.
