Binding the Dragon for the Empress

After Huaniang's father-in-law Snow Wolf Demon was captured by monks, she always thought that he would come back, and she refused to leave the small house in Huawei Lane in the world, where they made love and had children.

Until Yan Yuan decided to hand over Ah Zhi to her, her husband had been missing for seven or eight years, and she wandered around the world alone with her two young children. It was not safe in the end, so she returned to Huashan.

Huashan is the boundary of the Huajing family, and also the hometown of Huaniang. It is located in a corner of the demon world that is indisputable from the world. Before Yan Yuan died, she heard Huaniang mention it.Now that he is the Emperor of Heaven, when he came to a place, he would knock on the ground at will, and some land lord would come out to show him the way in fear, and he determined the direction after a while.

If you get close, you can find them by breath.

Just after the rain, the cherry blossoms all over the mountain are in full bloom, and every breath of air is full of sweet fragrance.An unremarkable wooden house is surrounded by the sea of ​​flowers. Although the wooden house is small, it looks exquisite. It is surrounded by half-person-high wooden fences to form a small courtyard, and there is a cobblestone well in the courtyard.

There was a little man by the well, about five years old, wearing a clean little black robe, nestling on the edge of the well to draw water.Almost half of his body hung out, frowning, he lifted the bucket full of water with hemp rope, his face turned red and his breath was uneven.

A five-year-old child of the human race is still at the age of rolling in the mud. Wherever he can do anything, it is good to be obedient.That little man is already able to help adults with work, he has inherited part of Xuanlong's spiritual power, and has been stronger than his peers since he was a child, but the wooden bucket filled with water is heavier than his whole body, and it is difficult to lift it. May not be strenuous.

When the wooden barrel was lifted out of the well, because he didn't hold it steady and spilled some water, he put the wooden barrel on the ground, untied the hemp rope wrapped around the handle, and stood there for a while before lifting the wooden barrel with both hands. Holding his hand, he swayed towards the house, and the water that swung out wet the little man's clothes.

"Ah Zhi..."

A hoarse, muffled call spread through the air.

The little man was stunned when he heard the words, and turned around with difficulty holding the bucket, and saw a person standing outside the wooden fence half a person's height.The man was wearing a white robe, the background was the fiery red sunset, the hem of his clothes fluttered in the wind, his smile was full of the sadness of a long absence and the joy of reunion, so gentle that Ah Zhi felt unreal.

"Father?..."

Ah Zhi had a calmness beyond his age at a young age, but now his eyes were gradually turning red uncontrollably. He looked at Yan Yuan, and even his voice became hoarse, and he was about to cry.

"Father... When will you and mother pick me up?"

"Azhi misses you so much..."

Yan Yuan shrunk to an inch, and appeared in front of Ah Zhi in an instant. He slowly squatted down, raised his hand to caress Ah Zhi's small face, and said with a smile: "Father is here to pick you up this time."

Ah Zhi stared at Yan Yuan in a daze, and when Yan Yuan was about to touch him, he suddenly took a step back, and he didn't even notice that the cold well water splashed on his body.

Ah Zhi held back his tears.No matter how strong he is, he is only a five-year-old child.

"Don't lie to me..."

"Azhi would dream of his father every night, and his father would always say that it will be soon, soon...but when will it be soon, and when will Ah Zhi grow up?"

"The monsters in the academy said that it takes a long time to grow up, and when you die, you are dead, and you have nothing. The father said that he would come to pick up Ah Zhi when he grew up, but he was actually lying to Ah Zhi, right? "As he said, the tears on the little man's face fell down.

Yan Yuan's hands froze in the air, her heart felt like a knife twisted: "It's not..."

Ah Zhi was so aggrieved that he choked up: "Ah Zhi dreams of my father every night, and every time I want to touch my father, my father disappears immediately... This time it must be a fake. If my father doesn't want Ah Zhi, I just throw it away I don't care about Ah Zhi, then Ah Zhi doesn't want to see Father Emperor..." Even though he said so, he stood still and was reluctant to leave.

Even in a dream, he still wanted to see his father more and stay with him for a longer time.

Yan Yuan felt sad and funny at the same time, cooperating with this little man thought she was dreaming.He raised his hand and made a tactic, the bucket in Ah Zhi's hand fell to the ground, and his palm lost weight, Ah Zhi looked down slowly.

Yan Yuan opened her arms and held the little man in front of her into her arms, looked at his green pupils that resembled Xuanlong's, and said softly: "Silly Ah Zhi, why did Emperor Father ever lie to you?"

"You can tell if it's true or not by touching your father's face."

The father in the dream would only smile at him from a distance, and say some ethereal words, it is impossible for him to touch him.Only then did Ah Zhi gradually realize that he might not be dreaming.

But isn't the father dead?They all said that the father was dead, and they also said that he was a wild child without father and mother.

Ah Zhi raised his small hand very slowly and touched Yan Yuan's cheek, fearing that the dream would be shattered in an instant.After feeling the real, warm touch, a soreness rushed up his nose, tears filled his eyes in an instant, and he called softly.

"Father..."

Ever since Ah Zhi was born, she hasn't left Yan Yuan's side, and after being separated for such a long time, Yan Yuan has mixed feelings in her heart, and she is extremely reluctant to part with her.

Yan Yuan's eyes were red, she wiped away the tears on Ah Zhi's face with her fingertips, and said with a smile: "You are the treasure of Father and Mother, how can Father not want you."

"Don't listen to other people's nonsense."

Ah Zhi stopped talking, and suddenly threw himself into Yan Yuan's arms, wrapped his small arms around Yan Yuan's neck tightly, and called out to his father in a muffled voice.

Yan Yuan raised her hand to cover his back and patted him, Ah Zhi cried out uncontrollably as if a certain mechanism had been touched, the voice increased from small to loud with Yan Yuan's comfort.

"Father...Father..."

"Azhi misses you so much..."

"Azhi thought you really didn't want me anymore... woo woo woo woo..."

Yan Yuan knew that he was sad, and knew that he needed to vent, so she hugged him and let him cry, patting his back one after another, the warm tears soaked his shoulders, in addition to her heartache, he thought, if Xuan Xuan Long knew that he had made their child so sad, so he must bear more hatred for him.

Yan Yuan sighed inwardly, and said, "Ah Zhi, don't cry anymore, my father is going to buy candied haws for you, and apologize to you, okay?"

Ah Zhi loosened his hands around Yan Yuan's neck slightly, looked at him with red eyes, and said seriously: "Ah Zhi doesn't want candied haws, as long as the father comes back is enough."

Yan Yuan smiled, and scratched his small nose with hook fingers: "Why is Ah Zhi so magnanimous?" She really followed your mother.

Ah Zhi leaned his small face on Yan Yuan's shoulder, and said softly, "Because Father treats Ah Zhi best."

Yan Yuan: "Did Aunt Hua treat you well?"

Ah Zhi shook his head, and explained in a low voice: "Aunt Hua treats Ah Zhi well, but father is the best and most important."

Yan Yuan caressed the back of Ah Zhi's head with her palm, she didn't know what to think of, her eyes became dim: "Father is not as good as you think... Your mother is the one who treats you best. When he gave birth to you, eat You have suffered a lot and suffered a lot, when you see him in the future, you must treat him kindly and don't make him sad, you understand?"

Ah Zhi nodded obediently, expressing that he remembered, and then asked with some expectation: "Did the emperor find mother back?... When will Ah Zhi see mother?"

"……almost."

"Soon, you'll be able to see him."

"He definitely wants to see you too." Yan Yuan said with a smile.

The whereabouts of the last ray of soul ashes scattered in the world have already been found. Just now he had a reaction when he stepped into the Huashan Soul Gathering Box, which proved that Xuanlong was here.

After collecting the last ray of soul consciousness, he can bring Xuanlong back to Jiuchongtian, and then ask his mother to cast a spell to reshape his physical body, so Xuanlong can live again.

"Ah Zhi has to fill up the water tank quickly, Aunt Hua will be back soon." The little man in his arms suddenly let go of Yan Yuan, ready to lift the water bucket on the ground.

Yan Yuan frowned, clasped Ah Zhi's small body, heartbroken: "Why do you have to do this?"

Ah Zhi paused: "Aunt Hua goes to the deep mountains every morning to collect elixir in exchange for demon coins for Ah Zhi and Sister Ying'er to eat, dress and study. Aunt Hua is so tired."

"...If she sees Ah Zhi working, she will be angry, so I have to do everything I can before Aunt Hua comes back."

A lowly little demon like Hua Niang would have a hard time living anywhere.For a big demon with strong spiritual power, cooking and washing clothes are just a matter of snapping fingers, but it is not easy for Hua Niang. She has to do one thing at a time like a human race, so it is naturally very tiring .

When Yan Yuan died, she left a lot of money for Hua Niang, but the currency of the human race and the currency of the monster race did not work. She took the children back to Huashan, and the gold and silver treasures were useless.

"I'm sorry, it's the father who didn't think carefully...causing you to suffer."

Ah Zhi raised his small hand to touch Yan Yuan's cheek, his ice-green eyes were as clear as water: "Ah Zhi is not bitter, but sometimes I really miss my father."

"It's Aunt Hua who worked hard."

"Good Ah Zhi." Yan Yuan gently hugged the little man into her arms, the tip of her nose was filled with a faint cold fragrance, the blood of Xuanlong flowed from his body, and had the same smell as Xuanlong.

After taking a few sniffs, Yan Yuan picked up the little man and walked into the house, ready to take a look at the environment inside the house.

The furnishings in the house are simple, and every piece of furniture shows a sense of dusty age, but it is very neat.There is a square table in the center of the room, with wooden stools under the table, and a light pink tablecloth on the table, which adds a lot of warmth to the house, in the style of a flower girl.

The outer room is the stove and dining room, and the inner room is the bedroom. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

Usually at this time, Ah Zhi and Yinger should be studying at the Fairy Academy. Today is the day off. Hua Niang went out to gather elixir as usual, and Ying Er went with her. Ah Zhi wanted to stay at home and do some housework for Hua Niang, so he pretended to be asleep on purpose. Did not go.

Yan Yuan hugged Ah Zhi and walked around the house, listening to him talk about what he had experienced in the past month, her heart was as soft as water, and she saw a water tank next to the stove, and with a wave of her sleeve, the water tank was full immediately .

Seeing this, Ah Zhi asked in confusion, "Father...are you not a mortal?"

Yan Yuan smiled lightly, and didn't say much: "It used to be, but it's not now."

His mother is a powerful Xuanlong. It is not unusual for his father to suddenly have spiritual power. Learn the method of manipulating spiritual power, my husband and my peers say Ah Zhi is an idiot."

Seeing the lonely look of the little man, she didn't know how many grievances she swallowed in secret, Yan Yuan felt her heart ache and touched his little dragon's horns.

"Ah Zhi is so stupid. You were born as a dragon and phoenix, and you can recite three thousand ancient poems at the age of three. It must be that the mentality of those demons is in conflict with your spiritual core. They don't know how to teach it. The emperor himself taught you."

"When your mother comes back...he will teach you too."
