Chapter 444: Humans and Beasts (1)

World Calendar.330 years

The bright moonlight is like a silver veil spilling from the sky.

This is the wind forest, and in this night, the breeze blows the surrounding willow branches, and the whole forest clouds seem to dance in the wind, lifelike.

Xia Xi'er, who had just turned 17, sat quietly among the trees, her green silk was gently blown by the breeze, her face was a touch of anxiety, and her red eyes were looking at her mother bitterly.

A big snow-white fluffy hand from her mother gently stroked Xia Xi'er's cheek.

Xia Xi'er's mother, Xia Hui, is a demon fox, Xia Xi'er has lived with her mother since she was a child, and at this time, Xia Xi'er didn't know who her father was.

I don't know why I turn into a demon fox except under the full moon, and I usually appear as a human being.

"Xi'er, it's getting late. Xia Hui said softly: "Hurry up and rest." ”

Shaking her head gently, Xia Xi'er said with a bitter face: "Mom, Xi'er is not sleepy, Xi'er wants to accompany you." ”

"Silly boy, mom is fine. Xia Hui smiled: "As long as it is in the moonlight, my mother's body will slowly recover, you can rest assured." ”

"Healing wounds in the moonlight, I know. Xia Xi'er's face was full of embarrassment: "But this can't cure the disease in the body..."

Xia Hui smiled bitterly: "Xi'er, my mother is a strange beast, and the strange beast is sick and there is no way to cure it." ”

"There is a way!" Xia Xi'er whimpered, "I know that in the human world, there are professions such as doctors and magicians, and they can cure my mother's illness. ”

"Alright. Xia Hui's red eyes glanced at Xia Xi'er: "I won't step into the human world, in this mountain, our two mothers and daughters will live well." ”

Xia Xi'er suddenly buried her head and said in a low voice: "Mom... You're a beast... So what am I?"

Being asked by Xia Xi'er like this, Xia Hui was stunned for a moment, and the expression on her face stiffened.

After a while, Xia Hui said softly, "Xi'er, of course you are my daughter." ”

"But why am I human..."

Xia Xi'er raised her head and cried, "Mom, who is my father?"

Xia Hui became silent and did not speak.

"Mom, do you know that once when I was on a full moon, I went to a human place and became a demon fox... They... They actually attacked me. ”

Xia Xi'er's red eyes showed tears, and she said softly: "I obviously didn't provoke them, I obviously didn't do anything bad, they just want my life..."

"Mom, Ci'er is older... Ciel knows everything... The reason why you don't go back to the race of alien beasts... It's also because Ci'er has a human body. ”

Tears glistened faintly in the moonlight, Xia Xi'er's face was already wet with tears, and her mouth began to sob: "Mom, what is Xi'er? Humans will also attack me, and foreign beasts will also attack me, what did Xi'er do wrong, whether Xi'er is a human or a foreign beast!"

Looking at Xia Xi'er crying with red eyes, Xia Hui's heart was as uncomfortable as a needle prick, and she didn't know how to talk to Xia Xi'er.

The snow-white fluffy hand hugged Xia Xi'er into her arms, and her paws caressed Xia Xi'er's hair, and Xia Hui forced her eyes to comfort her.

"Xi'er, you are your mother's child, your favorite child, don't care too much about your identity. ”

"But... But I want to make friends, I don't dare to go to human places, I don't dare to go to foreign beast places, they will attack me. ”

Xia Xi'er cried: "Now only my mother can accompany me, but Mom, you are sick, Xi'er is so scared, so afraid that her mother will leave me." ”

"It's okay Xi'er... It's okay. ”

Xia Hui's eyes also showed tears, which were the helpless tears of a mother.

The two mothers and daughters embraced each other in the moonlight, and the whole forest was filled with Xia Xi'er's cry.

And this cry kept hitting Xia Hui's heart, at this time, Xia Hui didn't know how to comfort Xia Xi'er, and she could only hold Xia Xi'er so that she could calm down in her heart.

......

In the middle of the night.

Xia Xi'er tiptoed up.

Under the quiet night of the wind forest, there was a "rustling" of footsteps, and Xia Xi'er walked alone between the wind forests.

Because Xia Xi'er had been to the place where humans lived alone before, there, Xia Xi'er also inquired about some medicinal materials that could cure diseases.

Now that her mother is critically ill, Xia Xier has to cure her mother no matter what.

The night in the wind forest is very quiet, even a little scary, and during the journey, you can hear the sharp sound of a baby crying as the wind blows through the branches.

And while Xia Xi'er was walking alone, she happened to bump into a group of strong men in armor.

Each of these strong men seemed to be tall and big, but the armor on their bodies was also tattered, and they looked like a group of defeated soldiers.

Among this group of strong men, the leader is a big man who is two meters and three meters tall, and his body is as huge as a small mountain.

Xia Xi'er looked very small in front of this group of strong men, and her whole face began to look a little flustered.

"En?" One of the big men looked at Xia Xi'er and said in a low voice, "There is war everywhere in this wind forest, how can there be a little girl?"

Another big man also glanced at Xia Xi'er and asked, "Little girl, this is a place of war, why did you appear here?"

Xia Xi'er looked at several big men with a frightened face, the shadow of the human who had hurt her before had always remained in her heart.

Her whole body began to tremble, and Xia Xi'er kept cheering for herself in her heart.

It's okay, it's not the time for the full moon, I won't be a beast, humans won't know...

Just when Xia Xi'er comforted herself and was about to answer a few people, among the big men, the leading strong man said with a strange face: "Little girl, are you a strange beast?"

As soon as he heard this, Xia Xi'er's red eyes tightened, and his face showed horror, he never expected that this person would be able to see his identity at a glance.

"Chief Qin... You say this little girl is a strange beast?"

"No, she obviously looks like a human, could it be that the alien beast can also transform into a human form?"

Chief Qin smiled at this time: "Don't you two still believe me, I am more familiar with foreign beasts than all of you, this little girl exudes the breath of foreign beasts all over her body." ”

As soon as they heard this, the eyes of the two big men suddenly lit up and asked, "Chief Qin, what kind of beast does she belong to?"

"It should be the demon fox, this kind of strange beast has intelligence, just like humans. Chief Qin said.

"That's great!" said the two big men, "Hurry up and kill this demon fox, I heard that the fur of the demon fox can be sold for a lot of money." ”

"Even now, now that we are defeated, it will also help us to exchange its fur for gold coins during this period of escape. ”

As he spoke, there was a touch of greed in the eyes of the two big men, and they had already drawn out the long sword of their eyes and stared at Xia Xi'er.

Seeing this situation, Xia Xi'er was already so frightened that she sat on the ground, her beautiful face was full of fear and fear.

"No... Don't kill me..."

screamed in horror, Xia Xi'er didn't know what to do, so she had to beg for mercy from a few people.

One of the big men licked the corners of his mouth and sneered: "Haha, a talking beast, to be honest, it's the first time I've seen it, but I'm sorry, we're also a remnant of the army now." ”

"Yes, I had to kill you, and exchange your fur for some money, so that we could escape..."

The two big men ignored Xia Xi'er's plea for mercy at all, raised the long sword in their hands, and raised their swords at Xia Xi'er.

"Wait!"

Just as the blades of the two fell, a pair of big hands suddenly grabbed the wrists of the two.

The two of them were a little puzzled: "Chief Qin, what are you?"

Chief Qin stared at Xia Xi'er, who was full of horror, and said in a low voice: "Don't kill her, although she has the smell of foreign beasts on her body, there is also a trace of human breath." ”

"Isn't it just that he's a beast? One of the big men said unhappily: "We are all embarrassed like this now, whether we can return to the Black Flag Army is a question." ”

"That's right, Chief Qin, it doesn't matter what she is, just kill her. ”

Glancing at the two of them coldly, Chief Qin said in a low voice: "I said, don't kill her, this is an order!"

As soon as these words came out, both of them shut up.

After all, several people seem to be soldiers, and the most important thing in the army is to obey the orders of their superiors.

Now that this Chief Qin has spoken, the two of them have no choice but to stop in the end.

"We are soldiers of the Black Flag Army, and our goal is to overthrow the Empire. Chief Qin glanced at the two of them and said in a low voice: "Instead of killing innocents indiscriminately, this will not talk about revolution at all." ”

"But isn't she a beast?" a big man whispered.

"But she's also human!"

With a shout at the soldiers, Chief Qin slowly came to Xia Xi'er and squatted down.

Staring at Xia Xi'er, Chief Qin said in a low voice, "Little girl, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." ”

Xia Xi'er looked at Chief Qin in fear: "Xie... Thank you. ”

Smiling, Chief Qin asked again, "Why does your body exude the aura of a strange beast, are your parents alien beasts?"

"My mother is a strange beast..."Xia Xi'er told Chief Qin honestly.

After all, this Chief Qin can see his identity at a glance, and no matter how much Xia Xi'er hides it, he probably won't be able to deceive him.

"It's a big world, it's a lot of wonders. ”

Chief Qin sighed, then reached out and touched Xia Xi'er's head, and said gently: "Don't worry, even if your mother is a foreign beast, I think your father should be a human being, since you have human blood, we naturally won't hurt the innocent." ”

"That's... If I were a strange beast, would you kill me?"

"Possibly. Qin Han said with a smile: "After all, when the alien beasts see us humans, they will also attack us, and these are all mutual. ”

"Alright. ”

At this time, Chief Qin got up and said, "Little girl, hurry up and get out of here, this is the wind forest, it is a place of war, and it is easy to get injured if you are alone outside." ”

"Well..."Xia Xi'er nodded timidly: "Thank you." ”

Immediately, Chief Qin led the remnants of the defeated army and left Xia Xi'er's field of vision.
