Dragon Story Episodes
A Horse's Tale
Once upon a time, there was
a dragon named Yulong—and
what a rowdy one he was!
He gave himself the nickname of
Hell's Stallion, and wherever he
went, mayhem and fights soon
followed. He truly felt himself to
be the center of the entire world.
People tried desperately to capture
him, but to no avail. He would simply
mock their efforts, telling his pursuers
there was no way anyone could ever
keep up with Hell's Stallion.
But though he was indeed quite fast,
he lacked brains—so the people
finally caught him with the help of
a subtle trap. Then, while he awaited
his punishment, he heard a voice...
"I will save you, dragon—but in
return, you must go to Shepan
Mountain. Wait there for one in
training, and become their horse."
Yulong would rather die than let
someone on his back, but seeing
his opportunity to escape, he
pretended to go along with the plan.
However, the voice was not fooled.
"Heed my words, dragon!"
said the voice in a tone that
demanded utter supplication.
"You must do as I ask of you.
For if you do not..."
After hearing those words, the
dragon felt pure excitement. And
indeed, this moment proved to be
the first step toward a completely
new and wonderful life.
After being imprisoned for causing
endless trouble, Yulong was saved
by a mysterious voice. As it ordered,
he journeyed to Shepan Mountain,
where he waited for one in training.
As he waited, a single horse caught
his eye. Feeling hungry, the dragon
thanked his good luck and downed
the horse in a single bite.
Yulong thought he had never been
more satisfied after a meal. But just
as he was ready to take a nap, he
saw a young Qilin woman approach.
"I'll have you know that horse you
just ate belonged to me," she said.
She spoke with grace and calm,
showing no fear of the dragon.
"Well, I was hungry," stated Yulong.
"Then for the rest of my journey,
you will serve as my steed in his
place," came the woman's reply.
Yulong began to yell and curse
at the woman's suggestion,
but she remained as calm as
a lake on a windless day.
"You have caused trouble for
countless people, dragon, and
you need to be punished for it."
Yulong was shocked—how could this
strange woman know of his past?
"Now hurry and become my steed!"
she said, smacking the dragon on
his haunches. Yulong's reaction was
not what one would have expected.
"This feels...AMAZING!" he cried.
"Amazing?" cried the woman as
she smacked him again and again.
"Bah! You must reflect on what
you've done! Bad horse! BAD HORSE!"
Thus was Yulong whipped into
shape, and everyone lived
happily ever after. The end!
"...Wu Kong! How dare you distort
the tale of how I met Xuan Zang!"
"Eh, my version was close enough."
"It was no such thing!"
"What an interesting tale. Is that truly
how you think of me, Wu Kong?"
"Ack! Master! You...heard that?"
"I certainly did. Now answer me."
I...um... Run awaaaaaay!"
"Get back here, Wu Kong!"
"Er, so we are clear, everything
he just said was nonsense."
