Chen Changsheng was really angry.
Before the big imperial examination, he suddenly succeeded in washing the marrow, even perfectly. Although he was in a coma during the whole process and didn't know what happened, he knew that it must be related to the black dragon.
Now that he is still alive, he was able to get the first place in the Grand Examination, and then he was enlightened by observing the stele in the Mausoleum of Books, and the stars moved the capital, all of which came from the gift of the black dragon.
To him, the black dragon is more important than a savior. Looking at the wound that seems to be still bleeding between the black dragon's eyes and the bones that are faintly visible deep in the wound, one can imagine the pain it is enduring , how can you not be moved.
Yes, the black dragon is said to be an evil dragon in the legend, and His Excellency the Pope also said so in the Li Palace before, but even if it had committed heinous crimes in Kyoto, being tricked and imprisoned underground for hundreds of years by Wang Zhice is not enough to atone for its crimes , but how could he be tortured like this again
The black dragon floated quietly in the air. Hearing Chen Changsheng's angry questioning voice, the emotion in his eyes was very calm. There was no pain, no fear, no anger following his emotions, and no emotion at all. It was just indifferent and emotionless.
Under its indifferent gaze, Chen Changsheng felt like an idiot. He didn't understand why, and felt so embarrassed, wondering if he had misunderstood something
After a long time, he felt the need to break the silence, and asked with some hesitation: "...after that day, this is the first time I've come to see you, are you okay?"
The black dragon didn't answer, and didn't react in any way.
As mentioned earlier, although Chen Changsheng didn't know what happened that day when he sat in the underground space for the first time, he knew that he must have had the help of the black dragon to escape that catastrophe.
"I don't know how to thank you, so I just brought some things you like to eat on weekdays."
He took out the whole roasted lamb that he ordered at Quyuan Roasted Sheep Workshop, and placed it on the ground in front of Heilong. The tangy aroma spread instantly with the heat wave, but it was quickly frozen by the cold underground.
"Hurry up and eat the sheep first, don't worry about anything else."
He looked at the fat that was gradually congealing on the leg of lamb, and reminded him.
Then he continued to take things out, roasted chicken, roasted deer tail, roasted goose, hot pot with sauerkraut beef, tofu in wooden barrel, fire pineapple... It didn't take long for the ground to be densely packed with dozens of kinds of food.
A bright light flashed in Heilong's eyes, but he still didn't move or speak.
Chen Changsheng felt a little strange. When he came to the underground space a few times ago, apart from teaching him the dragon language, the black dragon basically seldom talked to him. I don't know if it was because of disdain or because Long Xiao was too laborious, but it was not as quiet as it is today.
"What's wrong? Angry that I haven't seen you for so long?"
He looked at the black dragon and explained: "I woke up that day in the Orthodox Academy. I don't know who sent me back. After I found out that the marrow washing was successful, I wanted to come to you, but I don't know who filled the well... I I think it might be the person who sent me back to the Orthodox Academy, and then I have to prepare for the Great Imperial Examination, and I have been looking at the stele of the Book of Heaven in the Mausoleum of Books these days, so I really don’t have time to come here.”
In fact, he didn't need to explain so much. But he explained anyway.
His eyes were very clean and his expression was very serious.
I don't know if it's because of this reason, the black dragon's beard floated up slightly, and waved twice in the light of the night pearl, expressing that he would enjoy his offering later.
Chen Changsheng finally calmed down and started chatting with Heilong.
"I really want to thank you, otherwise I would never have gotten the first place in the Grand Examination."
He explained the Great Court Examination carefully, and then when it came to the announcement of the Great Court Examination, His Holiness the Pope personally put a thorn wreath on himself. He didn't mention what happened in Lingyan Pavilion, but the scenery in the Mausoleum of Books and the stories in the stele can be told very clearly and in detail.
"I've seen many rubbings of inscriptions, but before I entered the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books, I always had some kind of fantasy. I always wondered if the most incomprehensible stele of Tianshu was written in dragon language."
Chen Changsheng looked at the black dragon and said with a smile: "I have read Dragon Language since I was a child, and you have taught me it for so many days. If the inscription is really Dragon Language, it will be more convenient for me than others."
Heilong looked at him with ridicule and contempt in his eyes.
He was a little embarrassed, he laughed twice, and said: "I didn't realize that I was thinking too much until I saw those inscriptions after entering the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books."
This was a bit embarrassing, but he smiled happily.
The laughter gradually subsided, and he watched Hei Long seriously say a word. When he said this, his expression was extremely serious, even a little dignified.
"I spent more than 20 days viewing the monuments in Tianshu Mausoleum. On the last day, I saw all seventeen monuments in the former mausoleum, and finally discovered a secret... The stars can move."
He didn't say anything about it to His Holiness the Pope in the Palace before.
However, the black dragon was a little dismissive of his trust, and even felt amused because of his seriousness and solemnity, and the mocking and contempt in the dragon's eyes became more intense.
Chen Changsheng was stunned, and it took a while to react.
The dragon is the tallest flying creature in the world. It can break through the clouds and go to the nine heavens. The top dragon royal family like the Xuanshuang dragon can fly freely in the galaxy after it is rumored to be an adult. Even if the black dragon has never flown freely in the starry sky, how could he not know that the stars can move
In his opinion, a brand-new discovery that completely overturns common sense, or even violates the truth, is the most common thing for the black dragon. He told the black dragon that the stars can move so solemnly, just like telling a fish with extreme caution. The bottom of the water is quiet, telling Asuka that the cloud is actually water mist...
"I seem to think too much."
He looked at the black dragon and said helplessly, but also at a loss: "In this way, many people should know it, but why has no one mentioned it?"
Heilong still ignored him.
Chen Changsheng had no choice but to stop thinking about these things, and think about those things that are worth being happy, and said happily: "Did you make it? I am now in the upper realm of Tongyou."
In his mind, the black dragon is at least hundreds of years old, so it is naturally a senior who can't get older - he has made some achievements with the help and love of the senior, of course he must report it in time.
Heilong glanced at him twice, his contemptuous and mocking expression remained the same.
Chen Changsheng continued on his own: "I went to Li Palace earlier, only to find out... so the Pope is my uncle, well, he said that I am the only successor of their sect, so I will inherit the state religion in the future." , although I think this is absurd, but I also think His Excellency the Pope is serious."
Hearing these words, the contempt and mocking expression in the black dragon's eyes finally disappeared. Even if it is the most noble and powerful dragon clan, it must show corresponding respect to the successor of the state religion.
"Of course, in fact..."
Chen Changsheng thought for a while, then turned to talk about other things, and said, "I'm going on a long trip to Zhouyuan, and I may not be able to see you for a long time."
"Hmm... My fiancée, Xu Yourong, should also go to Zhouyuan. I think if I can meet her, I will return the marriage certificate to her. This is her father's request."
"I know she doesn't want to marry me, but she may not be happy when I return the marriage certificate to her. Her maid Shuang'er once went to the Orthodox Academy to look for me. I can guess what she means. She wants to borrow the marriage certificate. , use the name of my fiancé to be a fake husband and wife so that I can concentrate on cultivating the Tao."
"This matter doesn't seem to do me any harm, but I don't like it, so I don't like her like this. So I will break off the engagement with her directly."
Chen Changsheng said the most important decision in his heart, and immediately felt a lot more relaxed. He stood up and bid farewell to the black dragon: "I will come to see you again after I return from Zhouyuan."
Heilong looked at him silently, his eyes dimmed, and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, wondering if he wanted him to stay a little longer.
…
…
Leaving from the underground space, the place that came out was still the desolate abandoned palace. It seemed that few people approached the pond in that area. Chen Changsheng already had experience. He walked to the edge of the pond, took out a towel to dry his wet body, and then Changed into clean clothes.
After doing all this, he realized that there were a pair of dark eyes staring at him in the flowers next to him. He touched his chest and was slightly startled, smiled and shook his head and said, "Fortunately, I was watched by you."
The black sheep came out of the flowers slowly, with an indifferent and proud expression, and the meaning was very clear, what is there to see with your small appearance
Chen Changsheng quickly followed.
There is no key around the black sheep's neck, the key is always in his hand, it is only responsible for leading the way.
After passing through many deep palaces, avoiding the guards and eunuchs, and arriving at the secret door of the imperial city covered with ivy, Chen Changsheng took out the key to unlock the door, and walked in.
He looked back at the palace in the night, thinking silently, who is helping him all the time, is it the middle-aged woman? Or the Pope
In the underground space, many things he never said to anyone, he said to the black dragon, but he did not mention Senior Brother Yu Ren, nor did he mention half a word related to the old temple in Xining Town, because the Pope Your lord has already admitted that you deliberately let yourself see this black dragon, so what does this mean? There is nothing wrong with being cautious.
Chen Changsheng returned to the National Education Academy.
The black dragon is still in the cold ground, it can't go anywhere, and it can't go home, it has been hundreds of years.
Of course it is not called Zhizhi. Its dragon name is very long. If it is described in human language, it may take dozens of pages. Moreover, no one of its kind has called it for many years, so it has forgotten.
The light of the night pearl gradually dimmed.
A mana gradually disappeared in the cold air, it was a supernatural power similar to blindfolding.
The black dragon floating in the air like a mountain shrunk sharply, scattered with bits of light, and finally disappeared.
A little girl in black was kneeling on the ground.
The ground was covered with ice and snow, and her expression was as indifferent as ice and snow.
Her eyes are vertical pupils, bewitching like the night, and a red line between her eyebrows looks like a cinnabar mole.
Looking at the fat roasted whole lamb in front of her, she frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased.
She spoke in human language: "This idiot, is he trying to kill me?"
Because of the blood between her eyebrows that day, she hasn't recovered yet, and she can't change back into a dragon shape. For a little girl, a whole roasted whole lamb can only be seen, not eaten.
Then she saw braised chicken wings wrapped in oiled paper.
She picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, sucking it carefully, smiling like a flower.
Braised chicken wings are her favorite.
Chen Changsheng also brought her some good Yunwu green tea.
She made a cup, held it in her little hand and drank it slowly.
For some reason, she looked a little sad.
At this moment, a voice sounded in the underground space.
"Good tea."
Hearing this voice, the little girl's expression changed slightly, some disgusted, more fear.
