The brightly lit valley streets. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Perhaps because of the winter, the valley town is surrounded by various exquisite lanterns, and in this cold climate, it is particularly warm and warm.

Qianling walked among the people coming and going on the street, Li Xiaoruo took her hand, bouncing all the way, a pair of colorful heterochromatic pupils curiously looking east and west.

Small and delicate lanterns are lined one after the other, like glowing sugar gourds, strung along the interlaced lines over the street.

Hundreds of tiny lanterns flickered overhead, like sparkling stars in the vast night sky.

People come and go, and people are boiling.

Li Xiaoruo tilted his head and looked at the lantern above his head without blinking, and a pair of white velvet fox ears swayed gently.

Qianling followed her line of sight, thoughtful.

Thousands of lanterns hang high in the air, swaying in the wind, like fireworks in full bloom.

And above the vast sea of lanterns, there is the huge green canopy of sacred trees.

The breeze is clear, the canopy of the trees is swept by the wind, and the hazy golden sunlight shimmers through the cracks in the canopy, like a silent temptation and invitation, showing off the style of the vast world beyond the canyon.

The little fox ears of the white velvet shook slightly.

Li Xiaoruo looked at the swaying canopy without blinking.

Suddenly, a warm hand gently stroked his head, Li Xiaoruo came back to his senses, looked at the hand and smiled:

"Mom. ”

Qianling smiled softly and stroked her soft aqua blue hair again.

But a little melancholy gradually surged in my heart.

Of course she knew......

What Li Xiaoruo is looking at and thinking.

Since leaving the canyon, I have seen vast forests, mountains and rivers of all kinds......

Li Xiaoruo seemed to be more and more unable to stay at the bottom of this gloomy valley.

As soon as I say the bottom of the valley, I am happy, and when I say that I go back to the bottom, I will have a sad face, and I usually stay in the house and always run to the window or the eaves, looking at the sky above the canyon in a daze.

Qianling walked on the crowded and brightly lit streets, watching Li Xiaoruo holding his hand, like a little rabbit jumping and walking, looking east and west, and blinking from time to time to glance at the sky above the canyon.

There was a voice in my heart sighing lowly, restless and worried.

I remember what Grandma Peach once said about the nature of the orcs.

Just as the Dark Demons dislike too much blazing light, so do the Orcs hate the cold and dampness. Running in the sunshine and breeze is the meaning and pursuit of their lives.

The birds and finches in the cage have lost the free sky, have they also lost the vitality that life should have, and the most true and comfortable self?

Qianling bit her lip lightly, her hand clenched a little bit...... But he was powerless to let go.

Galandelle, other places, this world is so big, there are so many ancient and mysterious races on their own.

Now that Ellens and the Demon Clan are at loggerheads, Galandelle's war is spreading...... The various races are too busy to take care of themselves, lest they be affected by the war.

Who would want to accept a disembodied half-breed?

therefore

For a short period of time, except for the Demon Clan's territory at the bottom of this canyon......

There is nowhere to go.

But whenever I look at Xiao Ruo looking at the sky above the canyon in a daze, I look at the loneliness and expectation overflowing in those clear and immature eyes......

She'll be uncomfortable, fidgeting, and helpless.

Qianling shook her head vigorously, shook off those heavy and negative burdens, reached out and pulled her face, trying to squeeze out a smile.

It's okay, it's okay......

The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, there will always be a way!

When the cold winter is over and spring comes, she will have enough time to investigate the areas she passes through on the way to the orc headquarters, and maybe she will find a place like the original Yinfeng Valley, where even the half-race can live in peace and happiness without discrimination!

And now, all you need to do is get through this winter and live each day well and happily.

As if the mess in her heart had finally been straightened out, Qianling exhaled, and a smile rose on the corner of her lips.

Looking down at Li Xiaoruo, who was jumping up and down beside her, Qianling leaned over and gently rubbed her head, and her voice was soft:

"Are you tired of walking, do you want to hug you?"

Li Xiaoruo's pair of heterochromatic pupils seemed to be suddenly lit up, full of brilliance, and raised his arm towards her without hesitation:

"Yes!"

Qianling picked her up with a smile, Li Xiaoruo smiled so much that her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, a pair of small hands reached out to hug her, and gently rubbed her face like a coquette:

"Mom is the best, Xiao Ruo likes mom the most. ”

"Really?" Qianling smiled and rubbed her soft aqua blue hair.

"Well," Li Xiaoruo looked at her, nodded very seriously, a pair of heterochromatic pupils were clear and magnificent, and her immature voice was serious and firm, "When Xiaoruo grows up, she will take care of her mother like her mother takes care of me, treat her mother like she treats me well, and don't let anyone bully my mother." ”

Qianling looked at her with a serious look as if she was saying some vows, but her heart seemed to touch soft and warm cotton, which was so warm that it was about to melt.

smiled and kissed the forehead of the child in his arms, Qianling's voice was soft, like an expectation, and like a blessing:

"Good. Then, Xiao Ruoke has to grow up quickly. ”

People come and go, and the lights are shining.

Qianling hugged Li Xiaoruo and walked along the shop on the side of the street, watching.

Because I saved some money from working in Lanfeng Study, I was not only able to survive this winter, but also occasionally "luxury". Walking along the way, Qianling bought a lot of cute and novel gadgets, each of which was in two copies, one for Li Xiaoruo to play with, and one for Li Xiaoguo at home to take back.

Although the street in front of me is not the central area close to the trunk of the sacred tree, it is still bustling and lively, with a high flow of people.

Along the way, they seemed to faintly hear some low chattering voices around them, and occasionally saw some strange eyes looking at them.

In this regard, Qianling has long been accustomed to it, and she can turn a blind eye, and still walk around leisurely with Li Xiaoruo.

Only this time,

It seems to be different from before.

"Hey, look, look...... Is that an orc? Look at the little fox-eared girl, look at her eyes, the two are different colors......

"Really, it's so special......"

"Tsk...... No matter how special it is, it's just a little mixed-race hybrid after all, and maybe it will die at some point, nothing unusual. ”

His footsteps trembled, and he slowly stopped, unable to take another step.

Qianling hugged Li Xiaoruo and turned around slowly, her eyes burning, staring straight at the few people who were talking and laughing not far behind her, and her voice was cold and cold, as if frozen:

“…… What do you say?"
