When I first met her, it was about 1,300 years ago.
At that time, I had just reached 100 years of age. Then, due to some reasons, I was elected as the Lishui Dragon King.
To humans, the name Dragon King sounds very majestic, as if you can decide the life and death of humans by the rivers and lakes with just a wave of your hand … Alright, that is the truth. But in reality, while we obtained power, we also took on many responsibilities. Furthermore, we were under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court and were bound by many heavenly rules and heavenly rules.
Although it might be my misconception, the Immortals seem to control the Dragon Clan on one hand, making us the gods of the rivers and lakes. On the other hand, they hate the Dragon Clan and use all kinds of strict rules to impose on us. Once we break the rules, we will be severely punished.
The simplest and most direct one is that there are no Dragon Clan Immortal Officials in the Heavenly Court.
Of course, this kind of thinking seems to be somewhat disgraceful, so I have never told anyone about it.
To be honest, when I first came to Lishui and took over the Dragon King's job, because my magical power was not strong enough and I didn't have much experience, I couldn't take on this responsibility very well. Every time it rained or adjusted the water level, I was trembling with fear. I was afraid that I would do something wrong and be killed by humans in my dreams like my uncle, the Dragon King of Jinghe.
Even now, when I think about that time, it is still fresh in my mind.

"After living for over a hundred years, you don't even know how to make rain. Have you been living like a dog all these years?" Xu Shenxing looked disdainfully at the Lishui Dragon King, who was sitting in front of him without a care for his image and reminiscing about the past, "You still have the nerve to call yourself a Dragon Clan? How embarrassing, you should leave the group. "
"Don't mess around, I don't believe that you can control how much you pee."
The Dragon King spat, then retorted, "Our Dragon Clan's ability to make rain is also an innate talent. It is more or less the same, of course it is not that easy to control."
"Since you don't want to tell others about this, then why are you telling me?" Not wanting to think too much about the frightening matter of 'the rain in the sky and dragon pee are more or less the same', Xu Shenxing changed the topic as usual.
"Of course it's because you're just a mortal."
The Lishui Dragon King, who couldn't sense any divine power, immortal energy, demonic energy, or spiritual energy from Xu Shenxing, casually replied, "Even if your fist is very powerful, you're still just a mortal, you can't reach the Heavenly Court. Since you can't reach the Heavenly Court, you naturally can't complain about me. Heh, I don't believe that you can still jump up to the heavens! "
Therefore, Xu Shenxing began to seriously consider whether he should jump to the Heavenly Court to see what it was like after listening to the story.
Probably misunderstanding the reason for Xu Shenxing's silence, the Lishui Dragon King smiled and continued to talk about his past love story.

Actually, the story after that wasn't too special. It was just like how many stories would unfold. I met her at a banquet.
I don't know the reason why Xiangzhu became a god, but when she became a god, she was only 16 years old according to human calculation! Her father was just a mortal who couldn't help at all. It was only because of her that he was able to come to the banquet of the Dragon Clan and various small gods to eat and drink.
What surprised me even more was that she did a very good job as a god of the earth. It was said that the place that was originally just a small fishing village, under her meticulous care, actually had the atmosphere of a county. Furthermore, this vigorous development didn't stop, it continued to slowly and steadily grow!
Unlike me, she was a very talented person.
However, the circle of the earth gods seemed to be quite exclusive. The girl wasn't accepted by the other earth gods or mountain gods, and could only eat and drink alone in the hall of the palace made of pearls and crystals. At that time, I was also unhappy because my work wasn't going well, so I didn't have the mood to play with the other dragons.
Guess what happened in the end? She thought that I was an isolated person like her, so she took the initiative to find me.
Actually, at that time, I still had some of the pride of a dragon. At first, I couldn't let go of the fact that she was originally a human, but as we chatted more, I gradually found that she was different from the greedy and stupid humans I knew. She was intelligent and kind, a very good girl.
Thus, we two rookies chatted happily and treated each other as close friends.
When I encountered some problems at work, she could easily solve them with a few words. Furthermore, she wasn't arrogant. She was different from the other earth gods whose brains were about to turn to stone. She was a very interesting person.
Now that I think about it, perhaps I had already fallen in love with her at that time.
Perhaps I was too engrossed in my conversation with her, and my father, the master of the Eastern Sea, mistakenly thought that I had fallen in love with her. Thus, he took the initiative to set up a marriage with the other party's father. What a joke, her father was actually very happy that she was able to connect with the dragon race, and felt that his side had taken advantage of her.
However, I was very clear that I was the one who was climbing up the social ladder, and that I wasn't worthy of her.
When I found out about this, I had to say that my heart was filled with joy, and I vowed to become a dragon that was worthy of her.
To be honest, if she didn't agree, I wouldn't have forced her to marry me.
However, I never thought that she would fall in love with a mortal!
After coming out of the Earth Temple that day, I also felt that something was wrong. Her attitude towards you was not like that of a lover, but no different from an ordinary guest. However, she was a little different from before, and that was not wrong. That was why I mobilized the Water Tribe to help me find clues.
In the end, I saw it.
She was on a stone bridge in the outskirts, reluctantly sending off that mortal scholar.

At this point, the Lishui Dragon King let out a long sigh, and his expression was gloomy, "Human, do you have wine?"
"No." Xu Shenxing shook his head, "Being greedy for things in a cup isn't a good thing, so I don't drink."
By the way, the main reason why he didn't drink was because he didn't have the money to buy wine.
"But didn't you humans say that? Getting drunk solves a thousand worries … Ai, it's a pity that human wine is too weak, I drank an entire wine cellar and still couldn't get drunk. "The Lishui Dragon King shook his head and sighed.
"Did you pay?"
"What's money?"
Then don't drink it all! The owner of the wine cellar was about to cry!
"To be honest, at that moment, I really wanted to set off a huge wave and drown that scholar." Not caring about Xu Shenxing's constipated face, the Lishui Dragon King continued, "However, when I saw Xiangzhu's appearance, I knew … That not only would I not be able to get her heart back, it would also make her suffer for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years …"
He laid down on the ground in despair, and his expression became that of a good-for-nothing, "I don't want to see her in pain."
"What is love in this world, it teaches dragons to pledge their lives to each other …"
Xu Shenxing couldn't help but mutter.
"Good poem! Just this poem alone is enough for me, Fu Long Sheng! " The Lishui Dragon King laughed, and his words were filled with bitterness, "Let's go, I know that the owner of the wine cellar secretly dug a new cellar. Let's go and taste the new wine inside and drink it all!"
"… …"
That's why I said don't drink it all!
