Chapter V: The "Birth" of the Small Law
Gu Xiaoxiao hugged Wang Wuniao and followed closely behind Alpha, passing through the thick white fog, and it didn't take long for him to walk out of the smoke. Seeing the upright birch trees, I breathed a sigh of relief. If it weren't for the injured Wang Wuniao still in her arms, she wouldn't have believed what had just happened.
"Alpha." Gu Xiaoxiao stopped the figure who had been walking quietly in front.
"What's wrong?" Alpha didn't stop and didn't look back.
"That...... Do you know where to find water nearby? I want to treat this bird's wounds. After holding it for a long time, considering that he couldn't bear to let the bird in his arms ache for a long time, Xiao Xiao knew that it was the best idea to open his mouth at this moment and beg the ready-made heaven to use his ability to help. But for a long time, lonely and lonely as dust, Xiaoxiao has developed the habit of not bothering others.
However......
"This Wang Mist Bird is the same as the seven-stringed bird that attacked you just now, it is not a mortal thing in the human world, and it cannot be cured by the human world."
"Ahh Gu Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded, what should I do? Shouting in his heart, he threw a look of help at Alpha's back, hoping that the burning gaze could shock Alpha.
It's a pity that Alpha didn't look back from beginning to end.
"Let's go back first."
"Oh, okay."
Xiaoxiao pouted, carefully holding the bird, and stared at Alpha's back silently while following Alpha.
Is this an angel?
Not kind at all!
There is no sympathy at all! Or the messenger of God, the embodiment of light!
Xiao secretly gritted his teeth.
But the stomach that was not angry chose to "gurgle" in the delicate atmosphere at this time. Ah Fa stopped and looked back at Gu Xiaoxiao, and Xiao Xiao blushed in embarrassment as if Ah Fa had read the inner monologue just now.
"It's not a ......" Gu Xiaoxiao shook his head, signaling his innocence, but it was a pity that his stomach was still singing the empty city song, in the quiet woods at this moment, one after another, without taking into account the position of the master at this moment.
Afa's body suddenly disappeared into the air at this moment, Gu Xiaoxiao blinked vigorously and looked around, there was no shadow of Afa at all.
He shouldn't be angry......
I know I have a lot going on, but ......
Xiaoxiao suddenly felt so helpless that she was left in this forest!
It was so silent, Gu Xiaoxiao felt an eerie feeling crawling up his back in an instant.
"Alpha......," she whispered.
Then I felt the slightest yin wind across my cheeks, and suddenly my shoulder was tapped, Xiao Xiao didn't think much about it, squatted directly on the ground, buried his head in the fog bird in his arms, and couldn't stop trembling.
"What are you doing crouching?"
It's Alpha!
Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly stood up: "Ahem, where have you been?" "Hide your timidity with a silly dry cough, pretend that nothing happened just now, and you can't stand in fear because of the few seconds that Afa left, just a few seconds.
"Whoa." Alpha stretched out his left hand to Xiaoxiao, spread out his palm, and the blue round berries were lying in the palm of his hand, shining faintly.
Xiao Xiao looked at the lovely blue fruit in a daze, forgetting what to do.
"Reach out." Alpha spoke up.
The little obedient stretched out a hand, but the brain hadn't kept up. Alpha put the fruit in his hand into his small hand, and his fingertips rubbed his fingertips over the small palm, which was obviously cold to the touch, but Xiaoxiao felt that it was burned.
"It's ......" Xiao Xiao was stunned.
"Aren't you hungry, let's eat this first."
It turned out that he had just gone to find me something to eat......
Why, why, why bother with me, I've been causing you trouble.
No one has ever done this to me......
When I was alive, I never was.
Xiao Xiao lowered her head and looked at the blue jewel-like fruit in her palm, uncontrollable, her eyes were covered with a thin layer of mist, she didn't want Alpha to see that her eyes had been hazy at this moment.
"Let's go back."
"Okay."
Back in the weeds, Alpha conjured a gray rabbit out of nowhere. Little watched as Alpha cleaned up the gray rabbit, stuck it in a thick branch, and roasted it on a bonfire.
"Crackling" sound, the flames devouring the dead wood branches, Xiao Xiao watched the cool Alpha roasting the rabbit without saying a word, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of warmth.
Xiao Xiao swallowed his saliva, put the Wang Wu Bird in his arms on the ground, and then went to the sunflower field to pick up some naturally fallen leaves, and used these leaves to spread a thick layer on the ground not far from the bonfire.
Alpha slowly turned the branches of the tree to roast the rabbit, and from time to time looked at the busy figure in the birch forest next to him. I saw Gu Xiaoxiao bending down to look for something in the bushes, and sometimes trying to jump to reach the shortest branch of one of the birch trees, although he knew that he couldn't reach it at a glance, he still tried again and again, this kind of futile obsession was inexplicably interesting in Alpha's eyes.
After trying for a while, Xiao Xiao persuaded himself that the road of "gathering armpits into furs, iron pestle and grinding needles" was not working here, so he had to think of other methods. She used thin branches to hold several branches together at their ends to make a long branch, and then used the branches to flick between the branches and leaves of the birch tree for a while, and then bent down to pick up the ones that had fallen on the ground.
With the scorching of the flames, the rabbit meat gradually became golden, and the fat flowed down the meat, and a fragrant delicacy gradually overflowed, and Alpha estimated that the rabbit meat had been roasted, and took the branch away from the fire a little, and then Xiaoxiao also walked out of the birch forest.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao holding things in both hands, Afa walked to Wang Wuniao's side, and put all the things in his hand in front of Wang Wuniao's eyes, and the piles of small berries that looked like a hill were red and shiny, delicate and pearl-like.
Firethorn fruit? Alpha raised his eyebrows, although this firethorn fruit tasted sweet, the branches around it were like thorns, and even the edges of the leaves were jagged, and if he was accidentally cut, the wound would instantly have a burning sensation of being swallowed by flames.
Ah Fa moved his gaze to Gu Xiaoxiao's hands hanging on both sides, and then to Xiaoxiao's face full of a sense of accomplishment......
For the first time, I felt that humans were really strange creatures!
"The rabbit is roasted, come and eat." Alpha looked at Gu Xiao's novel.
Xiaoxiao didn't expect that the rabbit that Alpha was concentrating on roasting was for her to eat.
She put her hand in her pocket, and the blue berries were still lying quietly inside, through the thin dress, warming the body that did not belong to the world, and the heart covered by loneliness.
The twilight is falling, and the moonlight is flowing at some point.
Gu Xiaoxiao sat quietly beside Afa, surrounded by the flickering flames, and chewed the rabbit meat that Afa roasted for her one bite at a time.
This is the best thing Xiaoxiao has ever eaten from birth to death, and her heart is gradually intoxicated in this pervasive crispy fragrance, and the unconsciously raised arc of the corners of her mouth is the most straightforward evidence.
"Where's the winged fruit you just picked up?" Alpha asked aloud about Xiaoxiao, who was enjoying his meal.
"Winged fruit?"
"You got it from the birch tree."
"Oh, those white fruits, I took a bite and found it untasty, so I didn't pick them up."
It turns out that he was looking at me just now......
Xiao Xiao thought to herself, and there was a sweet taste in her heart that slowly fermented.
"Winged fruit is a very good thing, it would be nice to wait for it to ripen a little more."
"Really? Then wait until the fruit is ripe and try to pick it again! Gu Xiaoxiao didn't realize at all that he was subconsciously ready to get along with Alpha like this, and when he ascended to heaven at some point, Xiaoxiao didn't care about the place of his soul at all.
Gu Xiaoxiao ate a whole rabbit by herself, although Afa didn't mean to eat it, but Xiaoxiao didn't open her mouth to let him eat it together, she admitted that she cunningly wanted to swallow this rare happiness and make it exclusive.
Eating well, Gu Xiaoxiao was in a very good mood, although many unbelievable things happened on this day, it was the first time that she had a feeling of being alive, even if the pain was so scorching, it was clearly imprinted in the depths of her little soul.
Gu Xiaoxiao checked the situation of Wang Wuzi and found that the bird was motionless with its eyes closed, and the red fruits piled up on the ground had no trace of being moved, maintaining their original appearance.
This bird is not going to die......
Little hurriedly grabbed the bird and shook it desperately.
"Are you going to shake it to death?" Alpha spoke out to stop it.
"You see it's dead with its eyes closed, motionless?" Xiao asked anxiously, slowing down the shaking of his hand.
"It's alive."
Gu Xiaoxiao watched the poor bird in her hand shake violently gradually open its eyes, and breathed a sigh of relief under its resentful eyes.
"Scared the hell out of me!"
"It's scared to death." Alpha said without mercy.
"I just want to know if it's dead!"
"When the fog bird dies, its feathers will gradually dissipate, slowly turn into mist, and eventually disappear into the fog."
"That is, the bird that died before...... Already turned into mist? ”
"Yes."
Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say, for the fate of this foggy bird, although he didn't ask about overturning, he was very lonely.
Holding the bird in his hand, Xiaoxiao asked the bird seriously, "Why don't you eat?" Don't you eat berries? "Naturally, the bird can't speak, but the little one tries to communicate with it.
"As I said, Wang Wuniao is monogamous and loyal to love, and once he loses his partner, the other bird will not live alone." Alpha emphasized.
"However, if you die on a hunger strike, your other half will be sad too, Xiaomei." Xiao Xiao said solemnly to the birds.
"Xiaomei?" Alpha was stunned.
"yes, I named it, this bird is so beautiful."
"But this bird is a male."
"Huh?"
"The feathers of the long ornamental feathers of the female king fog bird have only one color, and the male is graded like this."
"Then change it." Xiao Xiaozuo racked his brains.
Ah Fa didn't care what it was called, and was about to stand up, only to hear a small shout: "Xiaofa! It's called Xiaofa! Well, this is good! Alpha stumbled and almost didn't stand still.
"What's your name?" Alpha narrowed his eyes.
"This bird was rescued by the two of us together, my name is Xiaoxiao, and your name is Alpha, so calling it Xiaofa is the most suitable name for it!" Xiaoxiao explained word by word, and Alpha only felt a headache.
Small Law ...... Haven't I become a bird!
This...... I really can't have a crush on humans!
