Chapter 112: How Much Does This Dragon Hate Getting Married?
Half a year ago, Sheng Ran and five beast husbands set out from the central city and were escorted to the end of the chapter.
It took nearly a month in total, a long journey, and it was not smooth.
Still remember that month, they passed through no less than five extremely desolate and cold places, and the resources they brought were exhausted halfway.
The remaining half of the journey could only be traveled at great expense by purchasing water and food, and the entire journey was bumpy and difficult.
If you think about it, you can guess that someone did it on purpose.
This time Sheng Ran learned her lesson and didn't plan to follow the original route.
The day before leaving Zhangwei, Huaijun drew up a plan for his trip south.
He has a strong talent for water-related abilities and can sense rivers, lakes, seas, and all water veins within a thousand miles. Naturally, he can understand cities and towns built on water.
They can't be too bad walking along these places.
After planning everything in advance, Sheng Ran said goodbye to Zhang Wei's fellow villagers and neighbors one by one and finally set off south.
This time was different from every other outing.
The last time Chuntao came to deliver coarse cloth clothes, she also brought a pass token, allowing Sheng Ran to travel during his exile.
Now there is no need to ask Lai Jie to borrow her badge. Sheng Ran finally has the opportunity to enter and exit the Beast World freely.
Not only that, this time the people in the central city are hoping that she will make a fool of herself when she returns, so they probably won't try to trip her up on the way.
Sheng Ran doesn't have to worry about her life for the time being.
With such a relaxed mood, she set off with the five male beasts.
This time, there was no dispute over who would drive the wife. Pei Xiaoxing had foresight and had already arranged a fair and just "schedule".
“Everyone has a day, and everyone has a chance.”
The specific order is determined by drawing lots.
The night before the draw, the atmosphere at home was eerily quiet.
Several male beasts had their own ulterior motives, and they looked at each other as if they were guarding against thieves.
Everyone was secretly looking for opportunities to be alone with Sheng Ran, creating opportunities for physical contact, hoping to get some good luck from the wife.
In the early morning when we set out for the south, the snow at the end of the chapter had not yet melted completely.
There was icicles hanging on the old locust tree outside the yard, but it couldn't stop Zhu Jiuyin from jumping around with a wooden stick in his hand.
He was lucky enough to get the first prize.
"I won! I won!" He held a wooden stick with a red circle drawn on it in his hand, and his golden pupils shone like burning fire.
Zhu Jiuyin rushed to Sheng Ran in two steps, the tip of his tail unconsciously sweeping shallow grooves in the snow, "Future wife! I'll give you a ride today! They haven't been able to snatch it from me!"
Sheng Ran looked at his ears which were red with excitement, and couldn't help but curl her eyes and nodded to indicate yes.
Ling Rui, who was standing next to him, curled his lips and said, "This thousand-year-old dragon is really lucky. Could it be that he has done something shady?"
Although Pei Xiaoxing was dissatisfied, he still tried to help out, "I spent half the night polishing the lottery, and he didn't have a chance to tamper with it."
Huai Jun took Sheng Ran's luggage silently without saying a word.
Yun Ling's dark eyes swept over Zhu Jiuyin and he warned in a cold voice, "Your scales are smooth, don't let the master fall."
Zhu Jiuyin immediately straightened his back and patted his chest to assure, "I will definitely protect my future wife!"
"My dragon scales won't drop my future wife. On the contrary, they are so strong that even the strongest winds can't reach her!"
As he spoke, he took two steps back, and a red-gold light shone around him, revealing his complete beast form.
The scales began to spread from the fingertips, red as molten charcoal, with fine golden light.
As the back arched, two pairs of fleshy wings slowly unfolded, and the golden patterns on the edges shone brightly in the morning light.
A pair of dragon horns emerged from his head. The curve was gentle, but it carried the majesty that was unique to Zhulong. However, at this moment, he deliberately restrained his momentum for fear of scaring Sheng Ran.
"Come up, my future wife. I'll hold you up." He transformed into a dragon, and gently placed his front paws on the snow. The scales on his palms were deliberately pointed, leaving only the soft pads. "Hold on to my claws or scales, just don't fall."
For some reason, Sheng Ran hesitated for a moment and turned to look at the other beastly husbands.
After receiving affirmative looks from several people, she stepped forward with confidence and reached out to gently touch Zhu Jiuyin's dragon horn.
There was a warmth in the horns, not as hard as imagined, but rather a bit like polished warm jade.
Zhu Jiuyin's whole body suddenly stiffened, his golden pupils widened instantly, and he even missed a breath: "Future wife, you touched my horn..."
This - can't be touched?
Sheng Ran had never come into contact with a dragon before, and didn't know its horns were so sensitive.
The tips of Sheng Ran's ears turned red. She quickly withdrew her hand and carefully sat on his front paw.
Zhu Jiuyin immediately supported her gently with his flesh pads and placed Sheng Ran on his back.
His movements were so light that it felt like he was holding fragile snow. He deliberately slowed down his pace as he took off, leaving only a fine cloud of snow at his tail. "Hold on tight, we're off!"
The moment Zhu Jiuyin carried her into the air, Sheng Ran subconsciously clenched the scales around his neck.
The scales were scorching hot, like warm stones that had just been exposed to the sun, seeping through the fingertips to the heart.
This was the first time she was so close to Zhu Jiuyin, so close that she could hear his steady heartbeat in his chest and smell the faint woody scent on his body. Even the wind was blocked by the scales on both sides of his body.
"Look down!" Zhu Jiuyin's voice was filled with joy, and his wings tilted slightly so that Sheng Ran could see the scenery on the ground clearly.
The snow-covered wild tribe became smaller and smaller, and the mountain stream was like a silver ribbon. Occasionally, a bird flew by, but did not dare to approach the breath of Zhulong.
He was afraid that Sheng Ran would be cold, so he specially wrapped half of her body with a few scales.
Sheng Ran's heartbeat sounded like drumbeats. She couldn't help but look around and saw Zhu Jiuyin's scales glowing with flowing golden light in the sunlight, and each scale was as bright as if it had been quenched by fire.
She couldn't help but reach out her hand and gently rubbed a piece of dragon scale with her fingertips - the scale was as smooth as fine silk. When she rubbed it, Zhu Jiuyin's body trembled again, and the frequency of the swinging of its tail suddenly became disordered.
"Future wife, don't touch the scales...it's a little itchy." His voice was a little hoarse, and his golden eyes glanced behind him secretly.
Sheng Ran paused awkwardly.
Why can’t I touch anything? She almost didn’t know where to put her hands.
Sheng Ran didn't take Zhu Jiuyin's prohibition seriously at all. Not only did she not withdraw her hand, but she also went further and rubbed it.
This feeling made Zhu Jiuyin feel tingling and numb. Although it was very difficult to endure, he soon developed a secret and refreshing pleasure in his heart.
The tip of Zhu Jiuyin's tail unconsciously wrapped around her wrist.
"If you want to touch me, keep touching me! I can bear it!"
The scales on the tail were softer, like fine wool, gently rubbing against her skin, making her heart skip a beat.
"Future wife, although I haven't married you yet, I was the first to draw the lot that carries you. Do you think this is destined for us?"
Zhu Jiuyin was so excited that he couldn't help but bring up the previous topic, "When are you willing to marry me and give me a legitimate status?"
Sheng Ran looked at his serious golden eyes, and the tips of her ears burned even redder.
How much does this dragon hate getting married?
Why is Zhulong so unpopular in the marriage market?
