Dragon's Professionalism

The guard was almost scared to death by the huge skeleton dragon! !

When facing Ning's Uncle August, he still had at least a mental preparation that "that skeleton might jump up"; at this moment, he was completely unprepared!It is no exaggeration to say that the guard's heart almost flew out of his throat at that moment, and when Ning reached out to hold him, he felt his heart come back.However, before the poor heart stood still for a few seconds, Ning's words almost made it fly out of the guard's throat again...

Ning said, "Ye An... Long time no see, mother."

Mother!

Ning's mother! !

God of Light...

Yang was at a loss for a while: bones and mother-in-law, the two things he feared the most recently were suddenly combined... The guard swallowed cautiously.

He raised his head tremblingly, looked up at the tall skeleton dragon, opened his mouth hard to introduce himself, but quickly closed his mouth again.He quietly got closer to Ning, and squeezed Ning's hand tightly as if asking for help, as if he wanted to draw courage from him.

"Ah, Yean, my child..." The dark white skeleton fell to the ground with a "boom", and the whole cave trembled.She stretched her wings with only bones left, and walked slowly and gracefully from the darkness. Perhaps because of the will-o'-the-wisps burning in it, the huge eye sockets seemed particularly hollow at this moment.

She searched the cave with those empty eye sockets.

"You said you brought your lover? That's great. Where is he? The voice of the cave that was praising me just now belongs to that child?"

"Yes, that's him. He's right here, by my side." Ning squeezed the guard's palm calmly.

Following Ning's voice, the bone dragon poked its bony head in their direction.

The guard subconsciously took a step back, but immediately stood up again.He tried his best to face the bone dragon, his voice trembling with nervousness: "Uh, hello, nice to meet...I mean, good night, ma'am."

"Ye An." Bone Dragon nodded reservedly: "You have a nice voice and a good eye. I believe you will be a great companion."

Yang smiled with difficulty, his lips were starting to turn pale.

Ning frowned slightly.

"Yes, he's a great companion, but I think you've got to see him...I mean, you can't entertain him like that." He led the guards nonchalantly to the side of the cave , and soon found a complete set of tables and chairs, Ning pulled the guard to one of the chairs and sat down, then took out the teacup and teapot, and began to make tea calmly in the darkness: "This time I brought Here comes the best tea, do you want to taste it? This is the most popular flavor on the mainland for nearly a hundred years."

He finished making tea swiftly and stuffed one of the cups into the guard's hand.The faint scent of tea permeated the air, feeling the warmth of the teacup in his hand, the guard gradually calmed down a bit.

"You are tempting me, my dear." Bone Dragon's voice carried a hint of a smile: "How long has it been? My little dragon has already learned to protect his lover, time flies so fast..."

Hearing the word "time", the guard couldn't help pricking up his ears quietly: he was really curious about how old Ning was... Although he had promised that Ning would not get to the bottom of it, if Ning's mother took the initiative to say it , it's not like he broke the agreement!

The excitement of being about to learn the secret welled up, and even overwhelmed the fear for a while.Holding the teacup, the guard turned his eyes to the side, but his ears were pointed in the direction of the bone dragon, and his heart was vaguely filled with anticipation.

Ning glanced at the guard like lightning, and with a little force, he put the teapot on the table with a "boom", and his voice raised a warning arc: "This tea tastes really good, you won't Miss it, mother."

"Okay, okay." The smile in the Bone Dragon's voice became more obvious, and she slowly folded her wings: "I didn't do this because of your temptation, I just want to see the girl who is going to be with me." His son is only a human being for life."

After a while, Ning patted the guard on the shoulder: "Turn your head." He said in a low voice.

The guard took a deep breath, and was mentally prepared to see a skeleton, but when he turned his head, he couldn't help being a little surprised:

A real noble lady was standing in front of them with a smile, looking at them lovingly.Her complexion, long hair, and the large skirt she wore were all pale and faintly fluorescent without exception. She was even translucent, and through her curvaceous body, one could faintly see The "stars" of various colors shone behind...but, no matter what, she didn't look like a skeleton at all.

It has to be said that Yang was slightly relieved by this: he could finally face Ning's mother normally.

...at least a little more normal than the previous state.

"Hello, madam." He awkwardly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up hastily and greeted her, she nodded with a smile in her eyes: "Don't call me madam, it's too polite: you can call me Mei Li, And I'll call you Jan--Jan, I like that name."

"Your name sounds better than mine." The guard said sincerely, and the smile on Mei Li's face became even wider.She took Yang's hand and said to him: "Is this cave beautiful? It was given to me by my husband after my death. It used tens of thousands of precious stones. If you like it, let Ning also make one for you! Yes Now, what's your birthday sign? We can put a border around it in gold and platinum..."

Ning coughed lightly and handed his mother a cup of freshly brewed tea. When he turned around, he took the opportunity to lean into the ear of the guard and whispered to him: "Good job... the name Mei Li My mother took it for herself."

He added two lumps of sugar to the guard's tea.

The guard took a sip of the tea, and the sweet taste spread warmly on the tip of his tongue. He sipped the familiar taste and slowly relaxed.

The dragon blinked behind him. "Don't worry, huh? We can take care of this."

Jan gave him a quick smile.

Indeed, they can handle all this. Meili is much more gentle and kind than the guard imagined. If you don’t count the little fright of the guard at the beginning, their visit this time can be said to be perfect... until the guard Inadvertently asked a question.

"Ning, I remember you mentioned mother and sister. We have met your mother, but... where is your sister?"

When he said these words, the atmosphere in the cave suddenly froze.

Mei Li's lower lip trembled, she forced a smile and said, "Yes, Ning, you should take him to meet your sister."

The guard faintly felt that something was wrong, because of a piece of wood!Yes, he quickly said: "Actually, it's not necessary. If it's inconvenient, I..."

"It's okay, it's okay." Ning interrupted him, he held Yang's hand, and smiled reassuringly: "Then mother, let's say goodbye first, and next time I come, I will bring you some Homemade rose tea - I'm sure it will taste good."

He turned to Meili, and Meili also smiled at the guard: "It's okay, my dear, you don't have to worry..." Then she said to Ning: "Okay, my child, I look forward to your next visit .”

The guards were led out of the cave by the dragon with a dazed expression, and Ning sighed deeply when they walked a long distance.

He looked terribly tired.

"...What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Yang was a little panicked, Ning hugged him vigorously, and said, "It's okay, you didn't do anything wrong, I should have explained to you in advance..."

"My sister...she...she can't see us with her own eyes."

The guard's eyes widened suddenly, and before he had time to apologize, Ning said first, "You don't need to be sorry, I forgot to explain this to you in advance."

He was silent for a while and said, "Do you remember what I told you before?"

"What's the matter?" The guard was a little uneasy, and he squeezed Ning's hand tightly.Ning's already deep black eyes looked even deeper, even a little cold.

"That's right, the trigger for the giant dragon to leave this continent was a female dragon who lost her egg and went mad and destroyed an entire human city... And that female dragon who lost her egg is my mother, Mei Li. "

The guard gasped.

"So...that...that..."

"Yes, you are right... the dragon egg that was eaten is my unborn younger sister."

Ning slowly hugged Yang, his voice was heavy and tired: "The souls of dragons are all powerful, so we can communicate with the outside world when we are still in the eggshell. As you can imagine, my mother I have been looking forward to her birth for a long time, and she has prepared all the beautiful things I can think of for her. They will chat together every day. In order to prevent myself from accidentally breaking the egg, my mother dare not even fall asleep beside her. .”

"...At first we all counted her birthday, but... suddenly one day, humans stole her."

Ning was silent again, and the guard knew he didn't want to say the word "eat".

He shook his head: "My mother was so sad that she went crazy and dragged the whole city to be buried with her desperately... Massacring the city has always been forbidden in the clan, and my father, who is the patriarch, according to the regulations Deal with her."

"Dispose..." The guard trembled, feeling a little inexplicably sad for the meaning contained in this word.

"That's right, deal with it." Ning closed his eyes, paused for a moment, and then continued: "...I tried to save her, but it didn't work, all the dragons wanted my mother to die. They think that the death of my mother can appease the anger of mankind, and we don't have to leave the homeland where we grew up..."

"But they left now." Yang said softly, and Ning showed a cold smile: "That's right."

The guard looked at the dragon, and at this moment, he suddenly remembered what the dragon's occupation was on this continent.

...or in other words, what kind of notoriety did the giant dragon, together with some scum among humans, leave for the entire dragon clan.

"...you did it?" He asked in disbelief, but Ning just lowered his eyelids and said lightly:

"Yes."
