Dragon's Professionalism

The guard woke up to the warm aroma of food.

He opened his eyes dimly, and in front of him was a bright orange fire. Ning Zheng was squatting halfway in front of the fire, with his head lowered, cooking something. Floating out of the air, he sniffed his nose and smelled his favorite thyme.

...For some unknown reason, Yang felt an extremely strange feeling in his heart. It was warm and sore. He stared blankly at Ning's side face, and couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment.

"Who's there?!" At this moment, Ning heard the sound coming from behind.He immediately turned around vigilantly, and quickly stretched his hands to his waist. When he saw that it was the guard who woke up, his sharp gaze softened instantly:

"Are you awake? It's a coincidence today. I came across a hazel chicken on the road, so I caught it and made soup."

He smiled and said to the guard, turning around while talking, took out a bowl from nowhere, filled it with a bowl of soup, and scooped up half of the bowl of delicious meat.Originally he was smiling, but when he walked towards the guard with the bowl in his hand, the guard suddenly lowered his head.

Ning was a little strange, he suppressed his smile and walked quickly, put the soup bowl on the ground next to him, gently lifted the guard's face for a look, and immediately frowned.

There were faint traces of tears on Yang's cheeks!

"Why are you crying? Did you have a nightmare?" He touched Yang's face, and seeing the guard blankly not answering, Ning felt that he must have had a nightmare.While blaming himself for scaring him before, he comforted him with gentle words: "Don't be afraid, the things in the nightmare are all fake, I'm right here, by your side - think about it, what kind of guy Can you beat a giant dragon?"

Compared with his rhetoric when he talked about love, Ning's comfort at this moment can be called clumsy.But the guard seemed to be really comforted by him. He slowly raised his face, with tears still hanging on his eyelashes, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised.

"Yeah, with you here, how can I still be afraid." Yang looked at the dragon and said softly with his eyes.

Maybe it's because of the fire, maybe it's the addition of love, in short, in the eyes of the dragon at this moment, the guard looks extremely beautiful, and his whole body is shining.Ning didn't even want to describe him as a rose, because the dragon was sure that it was impossible to find any rose on this continent with a beauty comparable to Jan's.

"...When I get back to the castle, I will show you the rose garden I planted." Ning handed the soup bowl to the guard, and kissed him lightly on the forehead: "Honey, you should really know yourself How beautiful you were just now, even if you add up all the roses in my entire garden, it can't compare to your half radiance at this moment."

The guard's face turned red suddenly, and he took the soup bowl in a low voice: "Yes...is it...I am really that good-looking?"

He looked at the dragon expectantly, and the dragon gently helped him pin the long hair hanging down his chest behind his ears: "No...of course not..." He paused on purpose, faintly revealed in the guard's gaze. When he was disappointed, he smiled and said, "You are much more beautiful than I described."

The guard couldn't help laughing, but immediately restrained his smile and said calmly, "Don't make me laugh, I'm eating soup now."

The giant dragon shook his head helplessly, wanting to say that he was serious, but after thinking for a moment, he gave up and continued to defend himself.

"If you like soup, drink more. We're going to see my mother later. I don't think she has anything to eat..." Julong just said this when he heard a "poof" from the side With a bang, he turned his head to look, and found that the guard had actually sprayed out all the soup he had just drunk into his mouth!

Holding the soup bowl, he was coughing desperately, looking so embarrassed that he didn't even care that the hot soup in the bowl spilled out on his wrists.Ning was taken aback by him, and hurried over to pat him on the back: "Did you choke? My fault, I shouldn't have cut the meat so small..."

"...No, it's not the soup or the meat."

The guard managed to catch his breath, and when Ning was busy wiping his oily wrist, he looked at the bowl of soup in pain, and said very conflictedly: "I just don't think I should drink it...it's really The meat is very delicious, Ning, your craftsmanship is great, and the meat inside is also very smooth and tender..."

"Then why don't you want to drink it? Did I accidentally put too much salt?" Ning looked at the bowl with more than half a bowl of soup left, and found that it was a bit greasy, so he went to the stewpot and scooped it up. Picked up some soup, tasted it a little bit, and said doubtfully: "I think the taste is right... Could it be that my sense of taste is wrong?"

Yang's cheeks became even more red, and he said to Ning in a low voice, coyly: "... I'm going to see your mother in a while, I... I won't be able to go to the toilet..."

The giant dragon finally came to his senses, and he said half amused and half helpless: "It doesn't matter, you don't need to care so much..."

But the guard just shook his head stubbornly.Looking at the guard's expression, Ning also knew that it was impossible to persuade the other party, so he could only look at the soup pot and sighed deeply: "If you don't drink it, what will you do with so much soup...Forget it, I'll drink it alone. "

With that said, he walked towards the soup pot.Yang straightened up and looked in the direction of the soup pot, his eyes widened in astonishment: "Ning! That's a pot full of soup! How could you finish it all by yourself!"

"No way, since you don't want to drink it, I have to drink it all in order not to waste it." Ning shrugged, took out a spoon and scooped it into the pot, and actually started to drink the soup.

"You...don't! You'll make it through!" The guard turned around anxiously, and finally, as if making up his mind, he bravely stepped forward and snatched the dragon's spoon, and began to gulp down the soup.While drinking, he said vaguely: "I can only drink half of it at most, and you are responsible for the rest."

Ning smiled and didn't speak. After guessing that the guard was almost half full, he gently reached out and took the spoon.

"Don't worry, my dear, please don't forget, my body is a giant dragon." He blinked at the guard. The incomparable appetite of...

"You are in human form now, can you still maintain that...uh, stomach capacity?" The guard struggled and said, he looked at the spoon in the dragon's hand with some greed: that soup is really delicious!And the more you drink, the more delicious it is!He feels like he hasn't had enough!

"Of course I can." Shrugging his shoulders, Ning quickly drank the remaining half of the pot of soup in an unbelievably elegant posture. The guards were stunned to see that the liquid in the soup pot dwindled rapidly, and they were stunned to see that the posture was still so elegant. The standard Ning couldn't help but exclaimed: "If only the princess saw you eating soup now, I think she will be frightened crazy."

The giant dragon smiled without saying a word.

It turns out that my dear Rose is also jealous of the princess... Very good, a surprise.

Ning thought about it, looked at the regretful guard, and raised the spoon in his hand to him: "Do you want some more?"

The guard struggled for a while, and soon convinced himself, "Anyway, I already drank it just now. If I want to go to the bathroom, I must go to the bathroom. It doesn't matter if I drink a little more!" So thinking, he took the spoon neatly , I finished the remaining half pot of soup...

After finishing the soup, Ning went to the stream to wash the pots and bowls, but the guards wanted to go up to help, but were persuaded by the dragon to sit back by the fire: he just drank too much soup, even Somewhat stretched out, Ning thought it was best for him to sit there and digest for a while.Looking at Ning who was busy there, the guard was a little ashamed and embarrassed: "I should come to wash the dishes. After all, you cooked the soup and beat the chicken, and I didn't do anything..."

"No, you did." Ning neatly cleaned up the pots and bowls, smiled and looked up at the guard: "You drank the soup I made and found it delicious, for me this is enough. "

"But I really didn't do anything..." The guard stared at the pot anxiously, fidgeting: "You have done so many things, but I..."

"I like to do something for you." Ning interrupted him, looking at the guards, he couldn't help but say: "Do you know how many years I have lived alone on the mainland? I am very happy to be able to do something for you, That makes me feel that I am needed, that I have a purpose in this world...do you know what I mean?"

He looked deeply at Yang, and there was an indescribable loneliness and desolation all over his body.

Seeing Ning's appearance at this moment, the guard couldn't help but fell silent.He hesitated, but finally nodded.

The giant dragon said with satisfaction: "Very well, then don't compete with me to wash the dishes in the future."

While Yang nodded subconsciously, he couldn't help feeling that something was wrong...

That night, the dragon considered that the guards drank too much soup, so they couldn't make the trip that night.It was not until the next morning when the thin mist was evaporated by the sun that Ning woke up the sleeping guard and said to him: "We should go, have some breakfast, get ready, and then set off on horseback." .”

The guard, who had had enough food, drink and rest, finally cleared his mind. He remembered a worrying thing, so he couldn't help asking the dragon: "Did you say yesterday that your mother is waiting for you?" us?"

"Yeah, I sent Zarka to inform her before I set off." The dragon said seriously, Zarka is the name of the bipedal pterosaur, but it is not often used, usually people still call it bipedal wing dragon.

The guard didn't know who Zarka was referring to, but he was in no mood to pursue it now.He sighed deeply, and said worriedly: "If I had known this way, I shouldn't have had soup last night. We were slow in coming, and this delayed another night..."

He sighed preoccupied, obviously worried that he would leave a bad impression on Ning's mother.

"Don't worry, my dear." Ning rubbed his hair gently: "Don't forget, my mother and I are both giant dragons, even though she has passed away unfortunately, she is still a giant dragon ——In other words, our view of time is the view of time of the giant dragon."

The guard was stunned for a few seconds, and then couldn't help asking him: "What do you mean by that?"

"It's very simple, even if we come here a year later, my mother won't think it's late." Ning shrugged teasingly.

Yang: "... Then why did we come here in a few days?!"

The guard glared angrily at the dragon, who kept laughing but refused to answer.At the end, the unbearable guard finally resorted to his trump card: "If in the dragon's view of time, your day is a human year, then dear Ning, please tell me, how old are you this year?—— Calculated in human time!"

Immediately, the dragon stopped laughing for a while.
