"Why do you still hold grudges, little uncle? You are so petty."
Aunt Xia complained, but she was elated and proud.
Hanzhang snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it mine?"
Seeing that he seemed really angry, Aunt Xia hurriedly came to comfort him, hugged his arm and begged for mercy: "It was my fault. I shouldn't have frightened uncle. My uncle has a lot of money, so don't worry about me."
Hanzhang stretched out his hand without shaking, grabbed her arm and held her in front of him, saying seriously: "You are the princess of the Yangtze River Dragon Palace. You can be willful and playful, but you can't be confused about the occasion or the situation." Severity."
Xiagu was frightened by his seriousness and did not move for a while.
Hanzhang said: "Your grandfather, the Dragon King of Dongting, governed the waters of Dongting. He was a Tzu-chi and a man of boundless grace. Your father, the King of the Golden Dragon, started from a young age and had great righteousness. Now he governs the waters of the Yangtze River and nurtures all living beings."
"You call me uncle, I'm only a few years older than you. Where is your ambition? Take pleasure in the sounds of dogs and horses, hang out among the stars and praise the moon. But if you are not the moon, you can live by adulation and promotion. A lifetime? When your parents are alive, they can still protect you. But when your parents have accomplished their merits and ascended to heaven, who will protect you?"
The more he spoke, the more stern he became, and his tone was not polite. Suddenly, Xiagu's eyes turned red. She felt ashamed and annoyed, and she broke away from his hand and said, "Are you here to teach me a lesson? I..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the Dragon Girl of Dongting, saying: "Okay, let's quarrel as soon as we meet."
Dongting Dragon Girl put her arms around Gu Xia's shoulders, patted her head to comfort her, and winked at Hanzhang quietly, then she hugged her daughter and walked away while persuading: "My uncle cares about you too, do you know?" It frightened us all to know that you went into Huangjiao Mountain and became brothers with monsters."
Xia Gu complained: "I was just teasing them. I knew they were not good people. Didn't I catch them all in the end?"
The Dongting Dragon Girl tapped her forehead and said, "If my uncle didn't save you, who would catch whom?"
As the couple walked further and further away, their voices gradually became quieter, and one could still vaguely hear Xiagu's dissatisfaction and complaints.
The Golden Dragon King shook his head, smiled at Hanzhang, and said, "Xiagu was spoiled by her grandfather. She has been obedient since she was a child. Now she is becoming more and more difficult to discipline. Don't get angry with her."
Hanzhang said: "She has a temper similar to that of my father. I saw that he suffered a lot, and I didn't want Xia Gu to follow in his footsteps."
The Golden Dragon King said: "If you have free time, you might as well help us teach her, and also stimulate her temper, and tell her not to be praised by others all day long."
Hanzhang shook his head and said: "How can she listen to me? She is afraid that she will make me angry to death before she can break up."
The Golden Dragon King had nothing to do with his daughter. For a moment, he was filled with sorrow and his eyebrows were furrowed.
Hanzhang was angry and felt something in his heart for a moment. He didn't want to make the Golden Dragon King sad about this, but comforted him: "There is no need for me to teach you. Aunt Xia is just playful now, and she is still very filial to her brother-in-law and sister. In the future, she will be slow That’s what it means to be slow to teach.”
Gong Mengbi said: "Xiagu is the apple of your eye, and Dongting Longjun is pampering her. Although she has a bit of a temper, she will grow up sooner or later under the influence of her ears and eyes. I have seen many more naughty people than her, and Xiagu is already a Alright."
Using the topic, Gong Mengbi briefly mentioned the story of a certain Taihu dragon who tampered with the lake's treasure, causing water turbulence, spiritual imbalances, and wind and rain, which immediately made both the Golden Dragon King and Hanzhang frown.
The water god has the unshirkable responsibility of cultivating all living beings.
In other words, all the gods in the world are responsible for regulating yin and yang, cultivating all living beings, educating all people, and benefiting all directions.
Like Hanzhang, it is better to say that he does not have a priesthood now, but like the Golden Dragon King, he has clear and unshirkable responsibilities. This is the price that must be paid to enjoy the incense of all peoples and the creation of heaven and earth.
For example, Gong Mengbi does not practice the divine way, but there are records of good deeds in the immortal books, and the consideration of merit is also an important part of the various assessments by the immortals and gods.
It's a pity that not all immortals and gods can pay attention to this. Some even don't understand that they are not just sitting in that position to enjoy the results, but to spend time and energy to do things.
The Golden Dragon King said categorically: "I will never let Xiagu become like that." Then he felt a little lucky and said: "Although Xiagu is fun, she always sees clearly when it comes to right and wrong."
Hanzhang looked at Gong Mengbi and asked, "Who is that dude you are talking about?"
Gong Mengbi looked at the Golden Dragon King with deep meaning in his eyes and said, "This is why I came to see the King today."
The Golden Dragon King's heart moved, and his expression immediately became serious, saying: "This is not the place to talk about business, so let's move to the Golden Dragon Palace."
When the three of them returned to the Golden Dragon Palace, Gong Mengbi bowed and said, "Today's request to see the king is actually inappropriate and I should not come. However, the matter is so important that I cannot help but come."
He looked at Hanzhang and said, "Senior brother, please stay away for now."
Hanzhang was surprised and said, "Can't you even listen to me?"
Gong Mengbi said with a hint of apology: "When the matter is settled, I will definitely tell senior brother the truth."
Seeing his serious appearance, Hanzhang glanced at the Golden Dragon King and said, "Brother-in-law, I'll wait for you outside the palace."
He exited the Golden Dragon Palace, and the sounds, sights, and atmosphere in the palace disappeared. Instead, the vast divine power of the Golden Dragon King was like an abyss, blocking out all prying eyes.
Hanzhang was waiting outside the palace, feeling bored for a while, and thought to himself: "This fox crossed the river and demolished the bridge. He clearly came on my raft, but he left me outside. He is really not a good friend."
"I don't know what the big deal is. My brother-in-law can hear it, but I can't."
He thought about everything he said and did since meeting Gong Mengbi, trying to find some clues.
But before he could figure it out, the good niece had already kicked her feet outside the golden palace. Seeing Hanzhang alone outside the palace, she said hurriedly: "Why is my uncle outside alone? It's cold inside the palace, not as good as outside." Is it warm?”
Hanzhang felt a headache and said, "Speak carefully."
Gu Xia snorted and said, "Mother is hosting a banquet in the mansion. After you finish chatting, you can go and eat."
Hanzhang nodded and said, "Long time no see, why haven't I seen your progress?"
Aunt Xia was furious and said, "I want you to take care of it!"
Hanzhang sneered and said: "Your aunt is born with deficiencies and is now at the sixth level. If you provide her with delicious food and drink every day, she is still at the sixth level."
"Ah - I'm so annoyed!" Xia Gu was so embarrassed that she rushed to beat him.
Wherever Hanzhang would be hit by her, he dodged in a flash.
Xiagu ran after him, her hairpin rings jingling, and she circled around the porch of the Golden Palace.
