Chapter 603 I'm No Ordinary Dragon Cubs! 8
Neri hadn't even seen a cub in thousands of years, so she took care of Zhao Zhao entirely according to what was written in some books.
But he was in a hurry today and didn't have time to look through the cub manual. So when he took Zhao Zhao to bathe, he just found a clean river and threw the cub in.
After all, in my vague memory, dragons always bathed like this.
The dragon territory is filled with towering trees, and crystal-clear rivers and lakes meander through it, creating a scene reminiscent of a paradise.
Zhao Zhao, enveloped in the giant dragon's claw, looked around at the scenery with excitement. Neri said she was taking him to bathe, and the excitement in his heart ended when the dragon released its claw and threw him into the river from mid-air.
With a loud "plop," the cub fell into the water like a cannonball.
"Gululu."
Suddenly, he choked on a mouthful of water, and his small, weak hands and feet thrashed about in the deep water, unable to float to the surface no matter what he did.
The giant candle dragon, hovering in mid-air, stared intently at the river for a long time, its crimson eyes, filled with great wisdom, flashing with light.
Why aren't the cubs coming up? Do they want to stay underwater?
I even started to struggle with whether I should let my son play in the water or make him take a bath quickly so as not to delay our business.
While he hesitated, the system on the other side was getting increasingly anxious.
"My goodness! Has this stupid dragon eaten too many red beans and developed lovesickness?!" Who told him to take such good care of the cub? Couldn't he take care of the other dragons instead!
002 was so anxious that he paced around in circles. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the two phoenix eggs on Zhao Zhao's head and inside her clothes had floated away, which frightened him so much that his data became disordered.
"My little one! Your two precious phoenix eggs are about to be washed away by the water!" he screamed in Zhao Zhao's mind.
"Dragons are born swimmers, don't rush, quickly use your hands and feet to float!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao barely opened one eye and stared straight at the two eggs that were about to float away. His anxiety seemed to turn into strength, and he immediately grabbed the two phoenix eggs back into his hands and desperately tried to float to the surface.
However, just as his head broke through the water, the huge dragon head above him looked down at him and said in a gentle voice with a hint of helplessness, "Little one, you've finally had enough fun."
Zhao Zhao: ......
System: Silly Dragon.....
Soaked to the bone and looking utterly disheveled, he clutched two phoenix eggs, his eyes red and swollen as he gazed at Neri, his expression pitiful.
Finally, she couldn't hold back and burst into tears.
The dragon's roar echoed through the deep forest. Erstoo, from the neighboring territory, slowly opened his eyes. His aloof golden eyes seemed to see the real thing through the endless forest.
"My little one..."
Over here, Neri panicked instantly when he saw the baby crying pitifully. He felt extremely sorry for the baby, after all, this was the first time the cheerful and optimistic baby had cried since birth.
"Sorry, baby, you can keep playing if you want, I won't rush you."
Another wave crashed into Zhao Zhao, knocking him into the water. Upon hearing this, he cried even harder, choking on water as he cried, "Help... cough... Neri, I need to get out!!"
The tiny hands held up two phoenix eggs, gesturing for Neri to quickly get them out.
The sharp dragon claws carefully hooked Zhao Zhao's black clothes. After flying to the land, the Zhulong immediately transformed into human form, its handsome face filled with panic as it looked at the crying cub.
"Don't cry, baby, what's wrong?"
Why does the cub look so frightened?
"You stinky Neri! I never want to take a bath again!"
Neri:?
After regaining her senses, Zhao Zhao struggled to run out of Nelli's arms, glared at him, transformed into a dragon, and angrily flew into the sky.
Neri paused in her anxious movements, her gaze falling on the small dragon's neck, where a tiny, chaotic scale lay.
When I came to my senses, the cub had already flown away at lightning speed.
"Baby!"
Neri screamed in alarm and immediately chased after him.
After leaving in a huff, Zhao Zhao flew towards Neri's dragon cave not far away, following the route she remembered. She then lay down on Neri's bed in a huff, scratching at the soft mattress with her sharp claws.
It was torn up and left a mess on the floor.
"Xiao Long, you almost lost me today..."
Just then, Yue, who had just woken up, called out in her mind again. Zhao Zhao said coldly, "Shut up, you're so annoying!"
Yue paused in her sobs, then cried even louder: "Fine, so after coming to this other world, I'm unwanted by my parents and have to endure your scolding every day!"
"I want to go home! I want to find the elder!"
In comparison, Yue even started to find the elders agreeable.
Yue's crying seemed contagious; Zhao Zhao, still a cub, was overwhelmed by sadness and also started crying.
Unlike Yue's soft sobs, Zhao Zhao's cries were deafening. Nai Li heard them from afar and rushed back to find Zhao Zhao crying incessantly in the messy dragon's den.
The ever-elegant and polite Lord Zhulong immediately squatted down in front of the nest and coaxed the cubs in a humble voice.
They pulled out all their precious gold and other valuables.
A mountain of gold was piled up in front of Zhao Zhao, and the reflected golden light made his tears shrink back.
He let out a few half-hearted sobs, his face still wet with tears, but his body betrayed him as he embraced his treasures: "Okay, I forgive you."
It wasn't about the money; he forgave Neri because of her sincerity.
Hum hum!
Neri was completely confused, but she went along with it, saying, "My little one is so kind... but did I do something to upset him?"
He hadn't considered the water aspect yet, since water had never been a danger to the dragon race; at most, it was just a toy for amusement.
"You still dare to say that?!" Zhao Zhao stood up angrily, hands on her hips, looking both fierce and pitiful with her wet hair and clothes.
"I was about to drown!"
"The baby is afraid of water?" Neri was incredulous, but after calming down and thinking about all the signs, she broke out in a cold sweat.
His face turned pale instantly: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
His hands, hanging at his sides, clenched into fists, and a smile played on his lips: "If you're unhappy, you can punish me."
Now he had a general idea of Zhao Zhao's identity, so he said those words naturally.
This is the inherent power that superiors have over subordinates.
Zhao Zhao didn't want to be punished; it hadn't come to that serious a point yet.
However, he never wants to take a bath again.
He gently touched Nellie's shiny face, his clear, watery eyes narrowing slightly as he smiled and let bygones be bygones: "Never mind, it's not a big deal."
"Can I play with the crystal beads now?"
Nari silently used her spiritual power to dry the moisture off Zhao Zhao's body and then smoothed out the bird's nest on his head.
"of course."
He had cleaned away the thick layer of dust from the crystal bead, and the cleaned cub stood in front of the large, bright crystal bead, creating a pure and beautiful scene.
"Little one, do you know how to use it?"
Its long, deep eyes silently watched the cub's every move.
