Chapter 359 Aspiring to Become——
"Sir, Lord Chi——"
Chi seemed to vaguely hear someone calling her.
This is probably the grand sacrificial scene described in the book.
The dragon came out of the sky, as if it were stepping on floating clouds, and below it was a sea of people. Everyone raised their arms and cheered the dragon's name.
"Lord Chi————Lord Chi——————"
Although she had only imagined such a scene in her dreams,...it didn't hurt to dream a little longer.
Chi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Lord Chi, are you awake?"
A sharp knock on the door made Chi open his eyes sharply.
The dream suddenly disappeared.
She wiped the saliva from her mouth and sat up. The light outside the window was already pale, and it was obviously past the normal time to get up at this point.
Strange... I'm not usually this lazy.
Could it be that after five years of walking, I can finally take a break?
She heard that the person knocking on the door was Kong Xuanzi, "Of course I'm awake, I just didn't go out. What's the matter?"
"That's right, Mr. Xia is waiting for you in the hall. He said he has something very important that he wants to talk to you about."
Xia Fan?
Very important thing?
It turns out that the dream just now was a omen - he finally realized the importance of dragons!
After his sleepiness completely disappeared, Chi picked up the bronze mirror on the table and said, "Ask him to wait for a moment, I'll be here right away. Wait - pay attention to your words when you tell him, don't make it look like Penglai is in a hurry, do you understand?" "
"Uh...I know."
She looked at herself in the glasses. Her smooth hair was swollen into a ball, no different from a honeycomb. This is also a problem with the dragon's natural magic. Once he dreams about happy things, he will unconsciously leak out his qi, causing the humidity in the room to increase greatly, and hair is often the hardest hit area to absorb water.
But this doesn't bother Chi.
As soon as she thought about it, a cloud of water mist suddenly covered her head. After the dry hair tips are wetted with water, they fall down again, forming a waterfall-like hair curtain with a shiny sheen. After drying the mirror, my image has returned to its former majestic appearance.
Miss Long nodded with satisfaction, put on her purple cotton robe and walked towards the hall.
…
After the two met and bowed to each other, Chi sat upright on the high chair so that his eyes were level with the other person's, "I wonder why you came to see me so early in the morning?"
Early in the morning? It's obviously almost ten o'clock, Xia Fan thought to himself. But she used me, which means she still takes this matter very seriously.
He squinted at the horns on the other person's head. The texture was like cartilage covered with fine velvet. He wondered what it would feel like to hold it in his hands. "Miss Chi, do you mind flying with people?"
"Like a big lizard? Of course not!" Chi's reaction was completely different from Olina's. She frowned and said with a look of disgust, "I am a dragon, how can I allow others to sit on my back? What's more, I fly The speed is much faster than that of a four-legged lizard, and I can’t fly as smoothly as she does!”
"That's it..." Xia Fan couldn't help but have a headache. He didn't expect that the first step of his plan would suffer a setback.
"However, if this is very important to you - I mainly mean Jinxia City - it is not impossible to adopt a compromise method." Chi couldn't help but feel proud in his heart when he saw his entangled look.
"what way?"
She stretched out her palm and grabbed it, "I'm holding it and flying. If each claw catches one, that's six people. But I've never tried to catch them all before. I won't know until I try it."
Xia Fan breathed a sigh of relief, now that he didn't have to let Olina go back and forth to deliver people alone.
"No problem, as long as it can bring people to the sky. In addition, there is another thing - can dragons really control the celestial phenomena? To what extent can it do it?"
"Turn your hands to become clouds, turn your hands to become rain; dragons roar to the sky, and strong winds are trumpets."
Chi raised his head, his voice seemed to be coming from outside, and his vertical eyes were shining, which was actually a bit breathtaking.
"Ahem... Master Chi." Kong Xuanzi from behind reminded him in a low voice.
She then raised one leg and said, "This is the description of an adult dragon. Although I can't be so prominent, I can still irrigate the fields and calm the storm. But...are you not saying that Jinxia's farmland and salt fields don't need it?" Dragon?"
The tone seemed to say that if you admit your mistake now, it's still too late.
"It has nothing to do with farmland and salt fields, but a more important thing - to repel foreign enemies." Xia Fan emphatically recounted the situation last night, "This is a special call from the Secretariat, and it will not hinder your future plans. The work is done. Of course, it is not compulsory and free, and the Secretariat will give a very generous reward.”
"Silver?" Chi said noncommittally, "Penglai Island does not lack these external possessions."
"Let you make headlines and make you the most famous dragon in history." Xia Fan said slowly.
"News... headlines?"
"Yes, the Propaganda Department is planning to prepare the first issue of the newspaper. If you are willing to take on this task, the newspaper will put your news in the most prominent position. In this way, everyone in the city will know your name, and you will also Will enjoy what you do.”
Chi didn't quite understand those strange words, but she heard one thing, that is, she could show strength to the people of the city, and people would praise her reputation for it.
This is the reason why Penglai has lasted for thousands of years.
This is also the situation her ancestors wanted to recreate.
Although the content shown is somewhat different from what Chi imagined...but, after all, hundreds of years have passed, and it is normal for the world to change.
The only problem is that the betrayal problem she has always wanted to solve has yet to find a suitable entry point. Fortunately, there is only a long time to come. As long as he fully proves his importance, Chi believes that the other party will fall into trouble sooner or later - after all, she is a real dragon and can bring countless benefits to her partner. No one can refuse such a temptation.
"Since you came to beg me, I will accept it." Chi covered his mouth with his hand and said calmly, "I hope you remember your promise."
"Don't worry, the Secretariat never breaks its promise." Xia Fan said frankly.
To become popular everywhere as quickly as possible, is there any more effective way than to create an idol?
…
Off the East China Sea, a two-masted sea-going ship was heading west. The black flag flying at the top of the mast declared that the ship belonged to the pirates.
In normal times, when they were robbing merchant ships, they would have to disguise themselves as merchant ships, but now that everyone was working for the Lord, hanging flags had become a way to identify ourselves and the enemy.
Captain George had been observing the scene in the northwest with a lookout glass. He remembered that some elves fled in this direction three days ago. Although it is difficult to find these pointed ears in the vast sea, but with the temptation of bounty, you have to try your best.
After all, that kind of large vine boat is much slower than his own car. As long as the general direction is correct, it will be a matter of time to catch it.
"How far are we from the continent to the west?" he asked the first mate.
The latter glanced at the sea map and said, "If we turn due west, it will take at least two or three days."
"Do you think those pointed ears will fight to the death and simply escape to the mainland?"
"It's not impossible, but the outcome is probably not much better than falling into our hands." The first mate said unconcernedly, "I heard that the people there are very weird and don't welcome outsiders."
"Then why don't you give us some Jin Kern? At least I will send them back to the Imperial Man gently."
These words caused a burst of laughter from his subordinates.
Everyone knows what the boss's gentleness means.
At this moment, the lookout on the mast suddenly shouted, "South, look to the south! Oh my god - there's a big guy there!"
"Big guy?" George's excited heart dropped again. If it was an elf ship, the fool above his head would never use the word "big guy" to describe it. "It's not the target. What are you talking about? Are there less whales? It shouldn't be." Sea monster—" He cursed and raised the monocular to point it south, and suddenly the blood all over his body froze.
I saw a emerald green "island" vaguely appearing on the skyline.
It is impossible for an island to exist in such a place.
Then the answer is obvious——
He discovered a new tree boat.
