Start as a Silver Dragon and travel to Equestria

At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hoof sounds came from the back of the circus, breaking the original tranquility. A pony ran in in a panic, its two front hooves were obviously injured, wrapped in thick bandages, and the blood was visible, looking very painful. This pony was exactly the "actor" they were looking for, a key role in an important performance that was about to be staged in the circus.

"Oh, what should I do? My hoof hurts so much. I heard there is magic water here that can cure all diseases. Is it true?" The injured pony said as he looked at the two smooth-talking brothers with expectant eyes, which were full of helplessness and desire.

The two smooth-talking brothers looked at each other, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and then they immediately put on that flattering smile and began to perform skillfully. They knew very well that the appearance of this pony was undoubtedly a great opportunity for them to promote the magic water.

"Of course, my dear little pony, our magic water can cure all diseases. No matter what difficult and complicated disease it is, just one drop of magic water can cure it immediately!" The smooth-talking brother said exaggeratedly, and at the same time took out a small bottle filled with green liquid from his arms. The bottle was flashing a strange light in the sun.

"Really? That's great! I'm willing to try!" The injured pony seemed extremely excited. It struggled to walk onto the stage, seemingly having completely forgotten the pain.

At this moment, Granny Smith's voice suddenly rang out. Her voice was steady and powerful, penetrating the hustle and bustle of the circus: "Wait, children, this sounds incredible. How can we believe in something that comes from an unknown source?"

Granny Smith's words made the ponies present fall into deep thought. They all nodded in agreement. After all, in this fantasy world, there are also many scams and false propaganda.

Seeing this, the two brothers, who were smooth-tongued, had a flash of panic in their eyes, but soon calmed down. They knew that they could not panic at this time and had to continue to promote their magic water.

"Oh, Granny Smith, you are really wronging us. Our magic water has been tested by countless ponies, and its effectiveness is absolutely guaranteed. Look, isn't this injured pony the best proof?" The smooth-talking brother said as he handed the small bottle to the injured pony.

The injured pony hesitated for a moment, but still took the bottle and drank a few sips of the magic water carefully. A miracle happened! The injured hoof was completely healed in a short while! The pony could even run and jump, and even pranced a few times, as if the previous pain had never existed.

This scene stunned all the ponies present. They all exclaimed in amazement and praised the magical effect of the magic water. Seeing this, the two brothers, Slippery Tongue, smiled triumphantly. It seemed that their plan was going smoothly.

However, Granny Smith was not so easily convinced. She narrowed her eyes and looked carefully at the two smooth-talking brothers and the magical bottle, her heart full of doubts. She always felt that something was wrong with this matter, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Children, this is so strange. How can we easily believe something of unknown origin? I think we should be cautious." Granny Smith said earnestly, her eyes revealing an unquestionable firmness.

"Yeah, I think this is a bit weird too..." Applejack naturally didn't believe that the two smooth-talking brothers would sell any genuine or good products. There was a hint of disdain and vigilance in her words.

However, the ponies were already impressed by the magical effect of the magic water, and they all expressed their willingness to try it. Seeing this, the two brothers, Slippery Tongue, became even more proud. They began to promote the magic water with all their might, and their exaggerated expressions and words seemed to make people believe that the magic water had magical effects.

Shining Chi Jing sat in the crowd, watching all these scenes unfold, his heart full of doubts. He didn't know why Teacher Luo Shu set up such a situation, this magic water was obviously just some vegetable juice. He knew that his task was to ensure that everything went according to Teacher Luo Shu's plan, but now Granny Smith's suspicion had caused the plot to deviate from the original setting.

Seeing that Granny Smith was about to leave, Shining Red Crystal wiped his face and decided to push the plot forward himself. He stood up and prepared to walk to the center of the stage.

However, the two smooth-talking brothers were in a state of panic when they saw him about to take action. They didn't know what this pony who suddenly stood up was going to do, but their intuition told them that if they let him solve this problem, they would definitely end up in trouble...

"Some of you may feel like you have lost hope in life." Flimsy put on a headscarf and began to talk about the sufferings that made ponies lose hope in a sad tone.

"Maybe you are old? Maybe you are tired? Maybe your legs are lame? Maybe your mane is gray."

"Oh, let me tell you, you don't need to worry, you can keep your ears healthy, your muscles strong, and your eyes healthy." Slippery Tongue and Slick Mouth came to Granny Smith and made these false propaganda. Their words were full of temptation and promises, just like a cunning businessman selling non-existent treasures to customers. However, Granny Smith's eyes revealed a trace of hesitation and curiosity, as if she was attracted by their words.

At this time, the ponies around her also started singing along with the glib song, and it seemed like the herd effect was taking effect on Granny Smith...

"We are so lucky. You have the medicine we need. We have a solution to our problem. The slick and smooth-talking magic water of eternal youth~~ the greatest and most magical magic water." The injured ponies also began to dance, swaying left and right, as if the lively and joyful atmosphere of singing infected them and made them forget their injuries for a while...

Then the two smooth-talking brothers began to introduce the effects of the magic water...

"It can cure horse rein wear, spur abrasions, draught horse molting, dwarfism, and thin horses, all in one night!!! Maybe you have swollen hooves, swollen buttocks, or are you bitten by a horse? Can't sit or walk? Your tail is bald and hairless? Osteoporosis? Hay fever? Tonsillitis?..." With the glib explanation, it seems that this magic water can really cure all diseases, even physiological structures can be changed! ... Although this sounds outrageous, the eyes of the ponies in the audience are like seeing a bright exit in a dark cave...

Even Granny Smith, who had just been disdainful and told everyone not to believe in this magic water easily, now seemed to be shaken... When the two smooth-talking brothers were performing hard and reaching their climax... Granny Smith frowned, gritted her teeth, took out the horse bit and shouted towards the stage!

“Buy it!!!”

"Wow!!! Congratulations to Granny Smith, you got a chance to regain your youth!!!" Slippery Tongue heaved a sigh of relief, and Flashing Red Crystal saw that the plot was at least going according to the outline, so she didn't care... and mixed into the herd again...

"At least it's according to the plot... Then we have to arrange some diving competition... Oh, and there's also the scene where the smooth talker is exposed..." Flashing Chijing retreated outside the tent and took out the letter from his small bag... But because he was focusing on the letter, he didn't notice the pony on the road ahead and bumped into it...

"Ouch! Sorry, sorry..." Twinkle Red Crystal held his head which was hurting from the collision, and then looked clearly at the pony in front of him who could have hit him so hard...

"Hey, little guy, do you know how to buy the magic water here?" A white Pegasus with strong muscles and a pair of small wings? Why didn't he participate in the reserve selection with his physique...?

"Logically speaking, with your physique, you should be able to pass the reserve selection, right? Didn't you go?" Flashing Red Crystal looked at the letter again. There was nothing about this pony being involved in the script. Just as he was about to drive him away or lead him away, the big guy's expression gradually became lonely, and his proud head sank down in disappointment... It seemed that he was hurt by Flashing Red Crystal's words...

"I was rejected in the first round of physical examination. They said my body looked deformed, with small wings and a large body... So I wanted to try if this magic water could cure this condition."

"Don't worry, I'm one of the three instructors, Shimmering Red Crystal. I think you should go for some training... You can report to the Silver Dragon Training Camp in Canterlot..." Shimmering Red Crystal said a few words casually, and then, looking at the big guy who seemed to really believe it, he patted his hooves and planned to head towards the train station in Ponyville...

This made Shimmering Red Crystal know why he was eliminated. Maybe the deformed body structure was just a subtle way of expressing that this guy seemed to have some problems with his intelligence... Maybe it was the so-called muscle and brain competing for nutrition...

Flashing Chijing regretted his decision, but he couldn't let him disrupt the plot this time...

As the magic water of the Flim Flam brothers sold out, the ponies left the circus-like tent contentedly. Applejack and the others came out, and Granny Smith seemed to be walking in front with great satisfaction. There were a few more bottles of the green magic water in the trailer of the Mattos...

"Mrs. Smith, this thing sounds a little impossible..."

“Do you know why apple cider tastes better than apple juice?”

"do not know"

"Because time has passed, Applejack, you are still too young, and your judgment on some things is not as sharp as mine." Granny Smith walked forward on her own, and Applejack and the others had to follow... At the same time, Apple Bloom didn't seem to think that this was a bad thing. At least it made Granny Smith happy for a while, right?

"Besides, Applejack, aren't we going fishing this afternoon? Wait, do you think our apples will catch any fish???"

"You can definitely catch some. No fish can resist the sweet apples of our Apple family." Applejack's doubts were dispelled by Apple Bloom's question, and she and Apple Bloom imagined the results of going fishing in the river together...

......

"Brother, we made a fortune this time! We didn't make this much money before when we bought those apple juicers!" The smooth-talking man was making a new batch of magic water behind the scenes of the circus while counting the golden horse bits. Their eloquence and performance were their weapons to make money. They had been doing very well in the past.

But just when they thought the money belonged to them, the twinkling red crystal opened the curtain and walked in...

"It looks like you guys really made a lot of money for the institute." Shimmering Red Crystal looked at the big bag full of money and weighed it with magic. It was about one thousand, including their face value. Although the two brothers, Slippery Tongue, had doubts about Shimmering Red Crystal's behavior, they did not dare to express it directly.

"Ah? This money...is not ours?"

"Yes... But with your eloquence, maybe you can help promote some daily necessities produced by the institute in the future. This way you can have a formal job. As long as you don't exaggerate and affect the reputation, you won't be fired."

Twinkle Red Crystal put the bag of money back because it was not time to withdraw the money yet, and she also had to find a way to get Applejack to come here...

......

"And I don't think there is any water that can cure so many diseases and make an old horse rejuvenate."

As soon as Applejack finished saying this, she was startled by a voice coming from the river surface. It was Granny Smith's voice. When Applejack turned around, she really saw Granny Smith swimming in the river surface! Although Granny Smith appeared to be at ease, in the eyes of Applejack and the others, Granny Smith had fallen into the water!

"Hold on! Granny Smith! We're here to save you!"

Applejack and Mattos ran downstream, and Mattos noticed that the yoke around his neck was made of wood, so he took it off and threw it towards Granny Smith in the river!

The wooden pole did reach Granny Smith, but she bypassed it and swam in another direction, switching from butterfly stroke to freestyle...

But Applejack on the shore was anxious...
