The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 131 How to Train Your Dragon
Yellow Devil Beach, next to the campfire.

The yellow croaker weighing hundreds of pounds was bled, scaled, and gutted, and washed again and again in water to clean away all the filth.

Ali skillfully removed the fish bones, cut the fish meat into several pieces, skewered them with several sharpened wooden sticks, and roasted them over the flame.

As for the fish bones, they were not wasted. They were mixed with the fish head and the most valuable fish bladder of the yellow croaker and cooked into broth.

Eat two for one fish.

Zhang Jiuyang watched her take out salt, honey, butter and other things from her stomach, and sprinkle them evenly on the fish while turning it over. After a while, the rich aroma of meat filled the air.

Zhang Jiuyang, who had just fought a fierce battle, suddenly felt hungry.

At Zhang Jiuyang's request, Qingji took a bath four or five times, his skin was almost rubbed red, and he also washed his precious fork over and over again.

It smelled the aroma of the fish and its mouth was watering.

Although the cultivation level of this yellow croaker spirit is not high, it has practiced Taoism for several decades after all. The fish meat is rich in spiritual energy and can strengthen the body. It is definitely a rare delicacy for a water creature like it.

"Don't try to get into any holes in the future. Even if you're a demon, you should have some bottom line..."

Zhang Jiuyang advised earnestly.

"Got it, Master. From now on I will only drill that hole and no other ones!"

Qingji was very excited that he could take part in the battle. He waved the small fork in his hand repeatedly, as if he was reminiscing about his first heroic battle.

"Master, judging from this battle, the power of the fork is still too weak. Hmm... Got it!"

It muttered something, then pointed at the fork and said, "Change!"

Under the manipulation of Shuize's spirit, the small black fork turned into a... mace.

It tried waving a few times and nodded with satisfaction.

Zhang Jiuyang: “…”

"Brother Jiu, it's time to eat~"

The young cook Ali handed the freshly grilled fish to Zhang Jiuyang.

Qingji wanted to go up and take a bite but was glared at by Ali.

"Let Brother Nine eat first!"

Zhang Jiuyang laughed loudly, divided the fish into three pieces, placed them in front of the two men, and said, "We share happiness and difficulties together. Let's eat together."

"Wuhu!"

Qingji started eating, and three seconds later he covered his stomach and burped.

I was actually full.

After all, a two-inch body can't eat much.

Ali can swallow the essence of food into her stomach by sucking it with her mouth, so she can taste the delicious food without leaving any residue.

Although the fish meat looked intact, it had lost its essence and had no taste.

Zhang Jiuyang ate with relish, not even caring about the fish bones, swallowing them all. After all, with his current physical body, he was not afraid of these small bones at all.

Eat large chunks of meat and drink a sip of fish soup when you are thirsty. After cooking, the bones and meat are almost dissolved, and the soup is milky white. Just sprinkle some salt on it and it will be very delicious.

Before long, he had eaten half of the hundreds of kilograms of fish by himself.

His stomach made a thunderous sound, as if a meat grinder was turning. His powerful internal organs quickly broke down the food and turned it into energy to nourish his limbs.

In the practice of the immortal golden body, medicinal diet is also an important process, and eating itself is a kind of practice.

In ancient times, a successful practitioner could eat an ox a day and then go without food for dozens of days.

For example, Zhang Sanfeng. According to historical records, Zhang Sanfeng could eat the amount of food of ten burly men in one meal, and then go without food for ten days. His performance was extremely miraculous.

Although Zhang Jiuyang has not yet reached this level, he has already had a glimpse of the initial shape.

A tiny figure crawled over like a bug, and then suddenly bit off a large piece of fish. Its eyes instantly lit up, as if it had never eaten anything so delicious before.

Ugh!

She took another big bite and was so happy that she almost cried.

It’s so delicious. It’s really delicious!

The fish meat went into her stomach without her even chewing. Just when she was about to take the third bite, a hand lifted her up.

She waved her short arms in the air fiercely, showing a ferocious expression towards Zhang Jiuyang, baring her teeth like a wild beast protecting its food.

However, that face with two missing front teeth didn't look fierce at all. Instead, it made people want to pinch those chubby cheeks.

Huh?
Is it during the teething period?

Oh, it seems to have fallen off when it bit me...

"Can you speak?"

……

"It seems impossible. Can you write? Write your name. I can't call you Little Dragon Girl."

……

"I am a friend of your sister Ao Li. Ao Li, your sister, you should know this."

Hearing her sister's name, the frantic little girl finally calmed down, but her eyes were still on the fish and she kept drooling.

Zhang Jiuyang put her on the ground.

The next moment, she was about to pounce on the fish.

boom!
Zhang Jiuyang hit her hard, causing her to grimace in pain. She wanted to bite Zhang Jiuyang, but when she saw his raised fist, a hint of fear suddenly appeared in her eyes.

She still remembered that she was knocked unconscious by this man's fist.

"Do you understand me? Nod if you do."

She hesitated, then nodded.

Zhang Jiuyang finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could understand, it meant they could still communicate.

"I'll give you a piece of meat as a reward."

Zhang Jiuyang gave her a piece of fish.

Whoosh!
Almost in the blink of an eye, she had eaten the fish. Because there was a lot of meat, her cheeks were bulging, like a greedy little hamster.

Zhang Jiuyang touched her hair tentatively.

The little dragon was quiet while eating and did not resist his touch.

"Next, I'll ask you questions, and you just need to nod or shake your head. If you answer well, you'll get some fish. Got it?"

Hearing that there was fish to eat, the little dragon nodded quickly.

"I'm your sister's friend. She asked me to take care of you for a month. You just follow me and listen to me for this month. Got it?"

Perhaps it was because of the delicious food she had eaten that her emotions stabilized a lot. Coupled with the intimidation of Zhang Jiuyang's force, she finally calmed down.

"elder sister……"

She actually spoke, her voice was very clear, but a little unclear.

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes moved, and he thought she could speak, but after asking a few times, he found that she could only say "sister" and nothing else.

However, the little dragon looked at him with a much kinder look.

"What's your name? Can you write?"

She thought about it carefully, then used one finger to write two words crookedly on the ground.

Ao... bud.

Zhang Jiuyang realized something was wrong. She could understand what people said and write her own name, but she could only say "sister" and her intelligence was too low. Unlike other animals that had to go through a lot of hardships to open their intelligence, dragons, ancient and powerful creatures, were born with extremely high intelligence. Even a newly born dragon should not be so ignorant.

It seemed that she had been taught the two words "Ao Ya" thousands of times before she barely learned them. Even so, the word "Ao" had too many strokes and was written in a scattered manner, making it almost unrecognizable.

Just as he was thinking, Ao Ya became anxious and made a rapid cry like a wild beast.

Zhang Jiuyang realized that he had not given her fish meat, so he quickly fed her a piece, then touched her head and said, "Follow me in the future, there will be endless meat to eat, but you have to be obedient, understand?"

Ao Ya stared at Zhang Jiuyang with his dark eyes for a long time, then nodded.

"elder sister……"

"Okay, okay, I know you miss your sister. I'll take you to see her in a month."

The Dragon Girl seemed to be practicing in seclusion, so she asked Zhang Jiuyang to wait for a month before taking his sister back to Yunmengze.

Thinking of this, he sighed softly.

He hasn't even gotten married yet, but he already has two little kids around him. He seems to have a connection with little girls, so why can't he have more older girls?

I don’t know why this little girl ran away from home, but Ao Li was able to let her stay outside for so long without any hesitation.

At a young age, he experienced the dangers of the world.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jiuyang touched her head and said, "Don't worry, stay with me, no one will bully you anymore."

"The fish demon who bullied you has been roasted. Of course, you are not allowed to bully others, and you are not allowed to reveal your true form at will, or I will beat you. Do you understand?"

She shrank her head and nodded.

"Okay, Ali, pack up and let's go back."

From the beginning till now, Ah Li's eyes have been looking at Ao Ya, her eyes constantly moving, and no one knows what she is thinking.

Zhang Jiuyang glared at her and signaled her not to bully Ao Ya.

Finish the fish.

He stood up and wanted to change his clothes, but found that Ao Ya had followed him. However, she was still crawling on the ground like a worm, as if her hands and feet had no bones.

Well, not only can he not talk, he can't walk either.

Ah Li's eyes moved when she saw this, and she pulled Zhang Jiuyang's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Brother Jiu, how about we try another way to go back~"

"In what way?"

"By water."

"You broke the boat?"

"No, but..."

Ali looked at Ao Ya squirming on the ground, her eyes sparkling.

"I have a method that is more powerful and faster than a ship..."

A moment later.

Zhang Jiuyang, Qingji and A Li stood on the back of the black dragon and went along the river towards Qingzhou City. As fast as the wind, the scenery on both sides of the river quickly receded.

Ali was extremely excited. She stood on the dragon's head, holding the dragon's horn with one hand and guiding the direction with the other hand, like the helmsman of a big ship, riding the wind and waves.

Of course, in return, she had to feed him some meat from time to time, which would make Ao Ya willing.

The long wind blew her dress and hair, and the lightning speed made her giggle.

"Brother Jiu, I am so awesome!"

She, Ali, finally rides a dragon!

It’s a pity that this dragon is too small and can’t fly, so it can only swim in the water.

It took two days to get here by carriage, but it only took less than one night riding a dragon.

Before the sky was fully light, they had already arrived at the Songlin River outside Qingzhou City. The breath of the real dragon scared away countless water creatures.

The small Songlin River suddenly seemed to have a more spiritual aura.

Water does not have to be deep.

If there is a dragon living in a marsh, it will soon become a Feng Shui treasure land. Real dragons cannot be raised in shallow water, but real dragons can raise water.

moo~
Ao Ya let out a dragon roar, which was an instinctive protest.

Soon after, the birds flew into the forest and all the beasts became frightened and dared not come here to drink water anymore. They all trembled in fear.

Zhang Jiuyang jumped ashore.

A Li also floated up and waved to Ao Ya.

"Fourth sister, let's go home~"

Wow, we’ve already recognized each other as sisters.

Ao Ya flew ashore and turned into a little girl in black clothes and black hair again. She rubbed her chubby face on the ground and crawled around with her waist swinging.

It's like sweeping the floor with your face.

Zhang Jiuyang quickly lifted her up, looked at her dirty face and those big black, bright eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "You are a dragon, so why are you so different from your sister?"

"By the way, your sister wasn't like this when she was little, was she?"

Thinking of the alluring and gorgeous dragon girl in white, Zhang Jiuyang found it hard to imagine what she looked like when she was crawling as a child.

It's such a disgrace.

As if she realized that Zhang Jiuyang was saying bad things about her sister, Ao Ya suddenly became angry, baring her teeth and looking fierce, until A Li stuffed a candy into her mouth.

Ao Ya, who had never eaten sweets before, felt numb immediately.

The sweetness stimulated her taste buds like an electric current, and she was so happy that she couldn't help but smile with missing front teeth.

……

After returning to Qingzhou City, Zhang Jiuyang took Ao Ya to see a doctor while she was asleep.

Firstly, she had consumed so much poison and he didn't know if she was in trouble. Secondly, he always felt that Ao Ya's intelligence was too low and there was something wrong.

The best doctor in Qingzhou took Ao Ya's pulse for a long time, and even pulled out several strands of his beard. He looked very puzzled.

"My dear brother, your daughter is very energetic and her pulse is incredibly strong. Is there any sign of poisoning?"

It was incredible when he said this. How could a little girl who looked only three or four years old have such a strong pulse?
It was just like thunder.

"What about her brain? Is there any hope of recovery? The child still can't speak."

"Let me give you a needle."

Snapped!
The silver needle broke, but Ao Ya's skin was intact.

Zhang Jiuyang and the doctor looked at each other.

"Your daughter... is a little thick-skinned."

"Maybe your needle is rusty. No need to prick. Just tell me your guess."

The doctor sighed and said solemnly, "It seems that your daughter is suffering from idiocy, and it is congenital. I am afraid that she will never be able to achieve enlightenment in this lifetime."

Stupid is what the mentally retarded children of later generations call happy and foolish children.

It is difficult for their intelligence to reach normal levels, and some even remain children their entire lives.

Why would a dragon get this disease?

At this time, the doctor looked at Zhang Jiuyang and shook his head, saying, "If I am not mistaken, your wife must have been stimulated by something when she was pregnant, which caused the baby to be born with congenital defects. Let alone being cured, it would be a miracle for her to be born."
