There was no end to the vegetation, and it was verdant and flourishing. Even in broad daylight, there were numerous dazzling shooting stars in the vast azure sky. They were like beautiful and beautiful colored threads flying past.
In the picturesque meadow, a youth sat on a short grassy slope. He propped his chin up and looked at the dazzling sight in the sky, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"One day, I will also become a sun herder god," the youth muttered to himself.
"You can't even herd cows properly now," a young girl said with a smile as she walked over.
"Hmph, I'm not cut out to herd cows, I should be herding dragons. I will nurture my dragons into the most brilliant suns in the firmament, bringing life and spirit energy to the millions of people on the planet!"
"If everyone wants to become a sun herder god, who will do the work of herding cows and rearing livestock? They should still drink milk and eat rice," the young girl said.
"You, you are a girl!" the youth said.
"Actually, herding the sun is also very simple. Isn't it the same as herding cows and sheep? I'll bring them out to eat grass in the day and lock them in a pen at night. I'll let the sun rise during the day and let them close their eyes to sleep at night …" the young girl said naively.
"Are you really dumb or really dumb? It's only because the sun rises that it's called day and because the sun sets that it's called night. If you want the world to be orderly and all things to have spirit, you need to ensure that the sun rises on time at all times. You need to make the sun fall asleep on time. Not making a mistake for a year, ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, or even ten thousand years?" the youth said.
"Hearing you say it, it seems really difficult. In that case, I'll just herd cows and sheep and raise dragons when I grow up. I'll raise those agricultural dragons that can benefit our tribe, reclaim wastelands, plow the land, move the soil …" the young girl said with a grin.
"Fool, you don't have any ambition. Herding the sun is the dream our tribe should have."
"I'm afraid of making a mistake. If there's a mistake in managing the sun, it will harm many, many people," the young girl said.
When the youth heard this, he instantly sank into deep thought.
"Ah!!" Suddenly, the young girl beside him cried out in astonishment. She then pointed at an area that was as white as snow in the direction of the forest.
"Don't be so flustered!" the youth said in a bad mood.
"Look, it's melting over there!" The girl pointed at the pure white forest.
"How is that possible? Ever since we were born, that place has always been covered in ice threads. Are your eyes playing tricks on you?" The young man said.
"See for yourself!"
This tribe had a picturesque meadow, a sacred snowy mountain, and a sky as pure as a sapphire. Everything was so peaceful. Only between the meadow and the forest, there was a very special touch of pure white. It was as if the painter had accidentally licked a stroke of white paint, but it also made the whole painting more mysterious and unique.
Ever since the siblings could remember, there was an unusual white area not far from the tribe. The locals called it the White Cocoon because it looked like a huge white cocoon.
When they were young, they often went there to play. The white velvet there was soft, and even in the hot summer, it gave people a cool feeling. After so many years, it seemed to have become a symbol of the tribe. No one asked where it came from or what it was made of. Every year, there would be elders in the village who would go there to worship it, treating the white cocoon as an illusory deity.
He had thought that the white cocoon would remain unchanged for thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years. But today, it had melted. The melting had even melted along with the sacred snow mountain that had not melted for thousands of years. The incomparably clean snow water flowed down the white mountain, turning into countless beautiful white waterfalls and silver threads.
The people in the tribe saw it too. They stopped what they were doing and ran to the meadow.
Someone took the lead and called it a miracle. Then, everyone began to kneel and worship it, chanting ancient praises.
The boy and girl stood at the very front. The two of them stared blankly at the melting white forest. This cocoon was as big as a forest. Its melting made the brother and sister extremely shocked. They were even more curious. They wanted to know just what was inside the white divine cocoon. Could it be an ancient dragon?
After all, someone had guessed that it was an extremely special dragon egg.
However, the two of them saw a young man about their age. He had black hair and skin as white as jade. He was as pure as a god who had walked down from the Heavenly Snow Mountain. Even though he was naked, it did not reduce his holiness and purity in the slightest!
"Emperor!"
"Emperor!"
It was unknown which clansman shouted, but everyone began to shout "Emperor's Son".
There was an old woman. She walked towards the Emperor devoutly and draped a velvet robe she had personally knitted on him. Then, she left devoutly.
"Where is this?" the young man called Emperor asked.
"Great Sky …" the old woman said.
"Which Divine Land?"
"Jiao Su Li Province."
"What about the Northern Dipper Divine Land?" the Emperor asked.
"There is no Northern Dipper Divine Land …" the old woman said blankly.
"There is, there is. I once heard from Mr. Stargazer that there is a strange light in the north. The light is called the Northern Dipper, and it fell into the Wilderness of Mysterious Sky …" At this moment, the young man said excitedly.
"Child, are you sure?? You don't dare lie to Emperor, "the old woman said sternly.
"I never lie. It's recorded in Mr. Stargazer's book!" the young man said with unusual certainty.
"How many years ago was that?" the Emperor asked hurriedly.
"I don't know. It was a long, long time ago."
"How long?"
"I wasn't born yet. Maybe Father wasn't born yet either …" the young man said.
"A thousand years?"
"Not really …"
The young man didn't know much. He had only eavesdropped on some history from Mr. Stargazer.
"Emperor, do you have any Heavenly Revelations to tell us?" the old woman asked carefully.
"I'm not some Emperor. My name is … my name is …" The person thought for a while but couldn't say his name immediately. He looked up at the clear sky and thought for a moment before saying, "My name is Zhu Minglang … Yes, that's my name."
"You're just an ordinary person?" the old woman asked again.
"Yes, a very, very ordinary person."
"You don't have the ability to go to heaven and earth, summon the wind and rain, and chase the moon and the sun?"
"No," Zhu Minglang replied.
"Then what can you do?" the old woman asked seriously.
"Same as them." Zhu Minglang pointed at the young man and girl herding cows and sheep, then said, "I'm also a child herding dragons …"
"Then … then where's your dragon?" the young man asked.
Zhu Minglang scratched his head and looked around. He smiled bitterly and said, "They seem to have woken up before me."
"Hahaha, you lost your dragon!" the young man suddenly laughed loudly.
Zhu Minglang was stunned, then laughed as well.
"You can start learning from herding cows and sheep. As long as you don't lose a single cow or sheep for a whole year, you'll be a qualified herder. You can slowly learn how to herd a dragon when you're older," the girl suggested sincerely to this person who was dumber than her.
