Hey!Long Jun, please wait a moment

Ji Mo was overjoyed, immediately put down what he was doing, and asked eagerly, "Have they returned yet?"

Xiaolong bounced up at the first time, and rushed out anxiously, cheering: "I'm back, Dad, hurry up, let's pick up brother!"

Rong Ping went to catch up with the excited little prince, Rong An said loudly and quickly: "The brothers patrolling the sea rushed back to inform that everything is fine, and they should be approaching the gate of the palace now, and Uncle Xiu is arranging reception." After a pause, Rong Ping looked very strange, and added:

"I heard that your nephew is also with you."

"Which one? It can't be Xiaofeng, right?" Ji Mo stopped in astonishment. There are many sidelines of the royal family in the East China Sea. He has dozens of close relatives, distant relatives, nephews and nieces, but Ao Feng is the only one he is familiar with.

Rong Ping didn't really believe it, he hesitated and said: "It is said that it is, and we will see the details later."

"What's going on?" Ji Mo was puzzled, wondering if he just got married?Although there is no such thing as a honeymoon in the beastman world, couples generally do not separate immediately. Human nature applies everywhere.What's more, the elders are so strict, they never let Ao Feng go far away easily...

Could it be that something big happened?

The more Ji Mo thought about it, the more something was wrong, and he wished he could spread his wings and fly to the palace gate to find out.

*****

At the gate of the Dragon Palace, there are already many sea people looking forward to it, and Heiting is maintaining order.

The young orc went out to do errands, and he went there for a month. The relatives in the family were thinking about it day and night, and they were always worried. When they heard the news of their safe return, how could they sit still?

Coupled with a large group of cubs playing and playing, it is really lively and noisy.

"Shhh, be quiet, there will be distinguished guests coming later." Heiting smiled and coaxed the noisy cubs, he was in charge of the internal defense of the Dragon Palace, and he was always conscientious.

Xiaolong was also crowded among his companions, his big eyes twinkling, full of anticipation.

The Sicilian sea people respect and worship the orcs who worked so hard to defend the dragon clan. Every time they lined up at the palace gate to welcome them, they would not listen or persuade them to leave. As time passed, Ji Mo had to set up a gate to intercept the lively cubs...

After waiting eagerly for a short time, the guard who stood the furthest to the naked eye suddenly turned his head and said something, and then those words were sent back one by one until they reached the gate of the palace:

"came back!"

A burst of cheers erupted in the crowd and commotion began.

It was noon at this time, and the sun was high, making the sea water clear and translucent.Ao Yi led the team. When they first entered the wide and flat open space in front of the house, they saw a large group of clansmen waving their hands/paws happily. The cheers and screams were deafening, and the fence was almost broken by the cubs!

- worth it.

No matter how hard, tiring, and dangerous it is, it's all worth it.

My family and tribe all care about me, worry about me, regard me as a hero, and recognize my efforts.

worth it!

The young orc raised his head high and proud, solemnly accepting the screams and eyes of enthusiastic admiration.

This is why Ji Mo did not try to stop the enthusiastic clansmen, but chose to install fences and increase patrolling—the orcs risked their lives, carried out various dangerous tasks, and ran around for the stability and development of their homeland. Are you greeted with reverence from the heart?

Thanks to all kinds of good intentions, the Sicilian sea dragons are monolithic: Although it is rumored that the folk customs are tough, they are harmonious and beautiful inside.

"Brother! Brother!" Xiaolong waved his claws like the cubs around him and shouted: "Brother, I'm here!"

Heiting and his companions were happy, but they still dutifully guarded the gate of the palace. They didn't let out a single cub, and all of them were blocked in the fence.

The heart is full of joy, the smile is open, what a sea of ​​joy.

"...Wow!" Ao Feng was amazed. This was the first time he came to Sicily as an adult. The last time he was a young dragon, he grew up in the East China Sea where the palace is strictly guarded. Such a scene of welcoming each other across the road is impossible.

"Hahaha~" Ao Yi was full of joy, pampering and tolerantly said: "The cubs are so lively, Brother Wang laughed."

Donghai Long remained silent, envious in his heart: We are all guards, and we also go through life and death for the Dragon Clan, but the concept of the superior has always been "you should do it, it is your duty to do a good job, and you will be punished if you don't do it well"... It's not just thinking Exchange credit for material benefits, just want to get sympathy and affirmation like "you have worked hard".

Alas, what a pity, the same dragon does not share the same fate.

Ao Feng said with emotion: "Where is it, this is the true temperament!" He can understand and wants to adopt it appropriately, but he just can't make the decision—Donghai is far from his turn to make the decision.

Getting closer.

Among the cubs, the little Qinglong Rong Beibei had the loudest voice: "Brother, do you see me? Look at me! Look at me, brother!"

"Hey, it's hard not to see you!" Rong Ge laughed and scolded uncontrollably, he swam to the gate, reached in and rubbed Rong Beibei's head roughly, coaxing: "Okay, brother saw you, Where are Ya's father and mother?"

At the same time, Liya in the crowd of adults was also waving her hands vigorously, calling loudly: "GeGe!"

"Yafu is out with the Dragon King, and mother is over there, she can't squeeze through." Rong Beibei replied crisply with her head raised.

"You are the only one who can squeeze, right?" Rong Ge teased, he turned his head and shouted to his mother, "You take Beibei back first, I'll go home as soon as I'm done!"

On the other side, Ao Yi saw his younger brother waving his claws and shouting at the gate, so he hurried over, smiled affectionately and said, "I've seen you a long time ago, where are my father and father?"

Before Xiaolong could answer, Ao Feng who was beside him simply hugged his little cousin out, and asked with a smile, "Ruirui, do you still remember who I am?"

uh~

Xiaolong was at a loss: He only went back to his hometown once, and he couldn't speak at that time, so what can he remember?

"Brother?" Xiaolong looked at his dignified cousin helplessly.

"This is Brother Wang. He came from my hometown. I mentioned it to you before." Ao Yi introduced and hugged his brother back, "Ruirui, this is Brother Wang. This is my brother's brother."

As soon as he returned to his brother's arms, Xiaolong immediately cheered up. He first greeted his strange cousin obediently, and then couldn't wait to confide: "Brother, I'm in a hurry. I've been waiting for you to come home, and Dad, and Father, We are all in a hurry!"

"Okay!" Ao Yi nodded cheerfully, "Ruirui is so good, I always want to go home. Where are Dad and King Father?"

"Father is not at home, he has gone out, father is not as fast as me, he is behind." Xiaolong was quite proud of his swimming speed.

As soon as the words fell, Ji Mo appeared in front of him, followed by Rong An and Hei Xiu.

"Father~" Xiaolong waved his claws and said proudly, "I got my brother!"

"Well, I saw it." Ji Mo swam over with a smile, he saw Ao Feng in the front row at the first glance, he was really surprised, but he couldn't ask questions on the spot.

Seeing Ji Mo coming out to greet him in person, Ao Feng, who is a junior, immediately stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and apologized: "Ao Feng has seen Uncle Ji, and he should have come to visit him earlier, but he didn't come until today. Ashamed—"

"Get up, get up!" Ji Mo didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, and went to help his nephew. He still didn't know what happened in his hometown, so he could only say in ordinary words: "Xiaofeng has always been sensible, at home Filial piety to grandparents, we are not as good as you. Since you are here, let’s stay here for a while, the house you used to live in has been cleaned all the time, and the journey is so long, are you exhausted?”

The ramblings are all homely words from the elders who care about the younger ones, but this is what Ao Feng lacks the most. He is infected by the atmosphere around him, comfortable and carefree - he actually feels like coming home!

"Everyone has worked hard, you are the warriors of the Sicilian Sea!" Ji Mo loudly affirmed that he is the Dragon Queen, representing the image of the royal family, and the condolences he deserves must be indispensable; moreover, he is also a traveler, and he never agrees with the hierarchy of the royal family and civilians : Inspiring morale, affirming achievements, commending meritorious service, and asking for warmth, he does it sincerely and naturally, and it really comes from the heart, so he is deeply respected.

The gate of the palace is busy but not chaotic.

Hei Xiu methodically arranged for the guests to stay in the Hall of Envoys, and at the same time put a large number of luggage properly, and then checked the situation of the orcs who were sent out for the mission.

This was the first time Ao Xuan saw Ji Mo. He stayed among the guards of the Sicilian Sea, looking at the eloquent Ji Mo with complete sincerity.

That's his... dad?

No wonder, he looks like his father!

——Although Ao Xuan didn't understand why he didn't call him "mother, mother", but "father".

Ao Yi led his younger brother over and asked:

"Rui Rui, do you remember Ao Xuan?"

"I remember, but he died." Xiaolong repeated what he heard from his elders in a daze.

Ao Xuan: "..."

"I'm sorry." Ao Yi quickly apologized, and explained seriously: "Ruirui, it was a misunderstanding before. He didn't die. This is him. You should call him brother."

Xiaolong had no concept of life and death yet, so he said happily: "Not dead? That's great, Dad said death is very serious. Are you coming to my house to play?"

In fact, Ji Mo's original words are: death is a very heavy topic...

"Yes." Ao Xuan smiled, a cute and innocent cub, everyone likes it.

"My father always wanted to thank you in person. He used Zhilian, and the medicine worked well. You really helped us a lot!" Ao Yi said earnestly.

"But you found Zhilian yourself, thank me for what?" Ao Xuan pointed out in shame.

At this time, Ji Mo had already noticed the situation here, but he had never seen Ao Xuan before, so he took it for granted that he was a member of Donghai, but after Ao Yi led that person over, he introduced him briskly:

"Father, this is the Ao Xuan I told you about!"
