The two of them were running in a panic, and they bumped into a big grizzly bear more than two meters tall running over, and the big grizzly bear seemed to be very irritable as if it was chasing something.

Huang Chiyan also complained when he saw the grizzly bear: "Lying grass, where did this grizzly bear come from, why am I carrying it so much, it's really a blessing and a curse." ”

This grizzly bear is also a more common demon beast in the monster forest, the adult grizzly bear is about two meters tall, and the hair is also very thick. This demon beast itself is not very powerful, and the adult is only a high-level barbarian, but this demon beast is at least a little stronger than the black devil dog. The grizzly bear roams the forest all year round, often feeding on small beasts. Known as the "Forest Defenders", this monster often patrols the forest, and is the most repellent to intruders, making the forest they are in their home, and they will not hesitate to attack anyone who breaks into their home.

"So what now?"

"What else can I do... Run in a different direction. Huang Chiyan also hurriedly took Zhou Xinyu's hand and changed directions, wanting to escape.

"Wait!" When she was about to run, Zhou Xinyu seemed to have found something.

"What's wrong?" Huang Chiyan also looked at Zhou Xinyu's gaze towards the gray bear, and he found that the black bear was really chasing a small demon beast. From a distance, the demon beast looked like a black dot moving, and as it slowly approached, Huang Chiyan gradually saw its image clearly.

The monster looked like a small house dog, with an orange-yellow body and a flame moving. The small one of the monster beast is in stark contrast to the two-meter-tall grizzly bear, which makes this little beast both pitiful and cute.

"What is this little guy?" Before Huang Chiyan could finish his surprise, he found Zhou Xinyu running in the direction of the little beast and the grizzly bear.

"Hey... Why are you going? Huang Chiyan also shouted in surprise when he saw Zhou Xinyu's behavior.

"Nonsense, such a poor little fellow, of course I'm going to save it. ”

Zhou Xinyu hurriedly ran to the orange beast after chatting for the next sentence.

Huang Chiyan was quite surprised when he heard this, this Zhou Xinyu looked cold and cold, and his attitude was also very indifferent when he first talked to him. But I didn't expect Zhou Xinyu to be quite loving, and rushed forward for a strange little beast of unknown origin regardless of her own danger.

Huang Chiyan smiled and said: "I really can't help you, I didn't expect you to be nosy, just like me, I like it." After that, Huang Chiyan also hurriedly chased after Zhou Xinyu.

At this time, Zhou Xinyu also rushed to the front of the grizzly bear, held the orange beast in front of him in his arms, turned around and ran, and the grizzly bear was already very close to Zhou Xinyu at this time. The bear slapped at Zhou Xinyu, Zhou Xinyu was completely shrouded in the shadow of the grizzly bear, and saw that Zhou Xinyu was about to be pressed to the ground by the big grizzly bear. Huang Chiyan was fortunately in time, and a forward pounce held Zhou Xinyu and the little beast to avoid the gray bear, and he immediately changed directions and pulled Zhou Xinyu to pick up the orange and yellow beast and ran wildly.

"I didn't expect you to be quite kind. Zhou Xinyu said to Huang Chiyan as she ran.

Huang Chiyan laughed when he heard this: "Haha, when have I been unkind, if I am not kind, can you live until now." ”

Just as the two were escaping, the grizzly bear and the black devil dog collided head-on, and the two demon beasts met and neither of them was convinced.

"Whew~ Wang. ”

"Roar~"

The two demon beasts roared at each other in a tense manner, the black devil dog kept glaring at the grizzly bear with its hind paws, and the grizzly bear also stretched out two huge bear paws and waved them openly, the two demon beasts seemed to be intimidating each other, but neither side dared to make a move easily.

"Great, those two animals are dry, and we are saved. Huang Chiyan looked back and saw the situation of the two demon beasts, and he also exclaimed happily.

Zhou Xinyu still didn't dare to let go and dragged Huang Chiyan forward, complaining as she ran: "Don't howl, I'm afraid they won't hear what's going on, so let's get out of their sight." ”

After about two quarters of an hour, the sky had completely darkened, the white moon slowly emerged from the mist, and the stars lit up like small lanterns that illuminated the night sky. Huang Chiyan and the two finally escaped from danger, and the two of them also lay on the ground weakly, looking at the shining stars.

"Hey, why are you still holding my hand? Zhou Xinyu shook her hand and complained to Huang Chiyan.

Huang Chiyan found that the hands of the two had been clenched all the time, and because he was very nervous just now, Huang Chiyan did not let go of Zhou Xinyu's hand for a moment. Huang Chiyan moved his hand away when he heard Zhou Xinyu's words, and Zhou Xinyu left a red handprint on his hand that was held out by Huang Chiyan.

At this time, both of them also relaxed, looking at the distant night sky, leaning on each other and talking.

"It's finally all right. Huang Chiyan breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he was relieved.

"yes. ”

"By the way, what kind of demon beast is this little guy?" Huang Chiyan said as he looked at the little orange demon beast lying on Huang Chiyan's body obediently. At this time, the little demon beast closed its eyes slightly, as if it was asleep, looking very cute and peaceful.

Huang Chiyan carefully observed this little guy, Huang Chiyan had studied the demon beast catalogue when he was in the palace, and Huang Chiyan, a common demon beast in the world, could also know a seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, or eight, but he had no impression of this orange and yellow beast at all.

It was a small monster the size of a small domestic dog, covered in orange hair, and looked like a warm bonfire on a warm winter day, making people look comfortable. It also had a handful of hairs swaying on its tail, like a small flame flickering in the wind. It has two small golden horns on its head, and there are some shiny orange scales under the orange-yellow hair on its back, and its four claws are like white tiger claws, but they have sharp claws like eagles, but usually when they are put away, only the hairy and deaf flesh are left.

Zhou Xinyu looked at Huanxi and gently picked up the little guy and hugged him in his arms, the little guy also opened his eyes and looked at Zhou Xinyu, and then rubbed it into Zhou Xinyu's arms, looking very well-behaved and cute. Its fur is also very soft and comfortable, and Zhou Xinyu also smiled happily.

"You look better when you smile than you normally. Huang Chiyan looked at Zhou Xinyu blankly and said.

Zhou Xinyu also came back to her senses and said to Huang Chiyan, "Why don't we give it a name." Zhou Xinyu's face still didn't smile, but her tone was already very gentle.

Huang Chiyan scratched his head and thought about it and said, "It's such a small one, or let's call it a little guy." ”

The little guy seemed to understand what Huang Chiyan was saying, and his little head shook like a rattle, and his face was full of reluctance.

Zhou Xinyu also reproached Huang Chiyan and said: "Don't you be so sloppy, are you so perfunctory? ”

"What's that called?" Huang Chiyan grabbed his scalp and couldn't think of a good name, Huang Chiyan thought that he was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he was able to interpret poems and songs and ancient sayings, and he was a little talented in literary style, but he was stumped by a name.

Huang Chiyan thought for a long time before saying, "Or call it Xiaoyan, it looks like a warm flame." ”

Zhou Xinyu shook her head again and said, "No, no, then it doesn't sound like you raised it." There was a hint of sourness in Zhou Xinyu's words.

But the little guy jumped to the ground, nodding and spinning in circles frequently, wagging his little tail happily. It shouts "babbling, babbling" in its mouth and seems to like the name very much.

Huang Chiyan said proudly to Zhou Xinyu: "You see that it has agreed to it, so it was decided so happily." ”

"Oh well. Zhou Xinyu still looked a little unhappy.

Huang Chiyan said again: "And why can't it be raised by me, if it is my partner, I will grow up with him." After that, Huang Chiyan looked at Xiao Yan gently and said, "Xiao Yan, are you willing to be my partner, I will grow up with you, we will be each other's companions in life, let us be good partners for a lifetime, okay?"

"Babble~" Xiao Yan also shouted happily when he heard this, shook his little tail and jumped onto Huang Chiyan's shoulder.

Huang Chiyan showed off to Zhou Xinyu again: "Xiao Yan is my partner now. ”

Zhou Xinyu pouted and said a little unhappily: "Okay then, but... You are not allowed to bully it in the future~ otherwise..."

Seeing Zhou Xinyu's aggrieved appearance, Xiao Yan lightly jumped into Zhou Xinyu's arms, and Xiao Yan arched over her as if to comfort her.

Zhou Xinyu was also amused by Xiao Yan, gently stroked Xiao Yan's hair and said, "Follow your master well in the future, you have to be obedient, do you know? If he dares to bully you, you will come to me." Zhou Xinyu smiled like a child, her eyes were full of tenderness, and there was no indifference before.

Huang Chiyan looked at Zhou Xinyu and said, "Maybe, this is the real you." Huang Chiyan said while looking at the gentle Zhou Xinyu.

"Huh?" Zhou Xinyu didn't react for a while.

Huang Chiyan continued: "I think you look much better now than before, why don't you keep it like you are now?"

Zhou Xinyu breathed a long sigh of relief after listening to Huang Chiyan's words, raised her head to the sky and said melancholy: "Because, I know that if I am too kind, I will be used by others, this is the last lesson my mother taught me with her life, and I will never forget the last look my mother looked at me." ”

"It turns out that this is really a girl with a story. Huang Chiyan sighed secretly, now he has a great change in his opinion of Zhou Xinyu. He could see that this girl's essence was kind, but maybe because of something in her heart, her personality changed.
