Chapter Twenty-Seven: Elk Xiaobai

Qingyun Mountain is very distinctive, it seems to be a lotus flower falling from the sky, and the middle - that is, where An Ran and they stood the day before yesterday - is a mountain saddle, it is like a lotus platform, the five peaks look like lotus petals, Tongtian Peak is the highest, and it is very majestic to be surrounded by the other four peaks in the middle.

On a sunny day, the sea of clouds can be seen churning from the top of the independent mountain, and the raised peaks in the sea of clouds are as vibrant as springing up. On the cliffs, the ancient pines and strange rocks are stronger; In the col, the beasts and the breeze roar in unison; There are occasional birds playing in the sea of clouds, a good picture of fairyland on earth.

At this time, people are small and emotional, they will temporarily forget the many mundane things that entangle them, and feel an inexplicable state of mind. Maybe when you are in the forest, listen to the sound of the pine waves, and you can hear the waves of the sea in your life; Maybe when you look up at the sky, you have to sigh at the vastness of the universe, and people are just floating between heaven and earth; Or you will be like our An Ran, you will have an inexplicable sadness when you see the sunset in the western sky.

An Ran is a little homesick, to be precise, he misses the white figure that disappeared at the intersection of People's Park more than ten years ago. As time went on, his parents' faces gradually became blurred in his memory, and many times he searched hard in his mind, and he could only come to the conclusion that 'my mother has a high nose, a goose egg face, big eyes, she is a very beautiful woman, my father is not smiling, yellow, a little wooden, sloppy and sloppy and hangs a pair of black-rimmed glasses crawling with dirt all day long, etc.......'

The handsome young man felt that he should be a little boy, maybe smaller than the white deer next to him, otherwise why would it be so uncomfortable to see this kind of sunset scenery? So An Ran just sat quietly on a round white stone in a daze, letting the sunset pull his shadow long.

He and Fan Yuntian walked around Luoxia Peak for two days, and saw a lot of strange phenomena, such as an old man in white standing on the cliff with his hands in his hands; There are woodcutters wearing robes and carrying dead branches on their backs, walking slowly in the forest; There are handsome men and women whispering above the floating white clouds; There are also three-year-old children who run and jump between the mountains with birds in their arms.

They were always very polite to him, and even if they didn't call him 'Adult', they would smile kindly, and nothing bad happened during this period, except for a hundred-zhang python that scared An Ran. Of course, the bamboo forest that Mr. Yu talked about has not been found until now, but he has found Xiaobai.

Xiaobai is an elk, and when she transforms into an adult, she will become a little girl with pink, horns, and white clothes, her ability is much greater than the current Fan Yuntian, but her temper is much better than Fan Yuntian. She also likes to call her master 'Brother Enron,' but she doesn't say 'idiot, fuck, bastard,' or anything like that.

Bailu has a characteristic, he likes to stand alone on the top of the mountain to watch the sunset, and their acquaintance is also due to a sunset.

"It's so far!" An Ran, who had been in a daze for a long time, suddenly spit out two words in a low voice.

"What's so far away?" The little girl who had been sitting beside him asked angrily.

"Jianghu," An Ran picked up a wooden branch and said casually on the ground, he sighed, "The rivers and lakes are so far away, where to find me to cross the river." ”

Those were the words he said in his video chat with Smokefall last night.

"An Ran, have you lived alone for so many years?" That's what the girl asked him.

"Hmmm! I left home when I was in high school. An Ran replied.

"Didn't you go back to see your dad?" The girl asked again.

"No, how can you have the face to go back?" An Ran laughed to herself.

"If you can, let's go home and see, how can any parent in the world dislike their children?" The girl tried to persuade.

Obviously, Leng Xue must have known some things about An Ran's past from Xiang Dong and Gu Ping's mouths, woman! If she likes you, she'll be interested in everything about you, good or bad. Gu Ping told her that An Ran's mother left him very early, and An Ran was not happy when he was a child, wandering the streets and alleys all day long, trying to survive in the crawling and rolling. This made the girl feel uncomfortable, she felt that he was very similar to herself, she had lost her mother's love since she was a child, and she was a little lonely in her heart, so she must enter his heart to drive away that loneliness.

An Ran was silent.

"Did Auntie come back to see you?"

"She went to the rivers and lakes, and it takes some time to go home so far away."

Now it was the girl's turn to be silent.

Last night they seemed to see each other's tears in their hearts.

Bailu is also an orphan, and her mother has also gone to a distant place, but she doesn't quite understand what the rivers and lakes are, she only knows what her mother said to her before she flew into the sky.

"Xiaobai! My mother is leaving, and your father is waiting for me. The doe, transformed as a woman, gently stroked the forehead of the little white deer.

"Okay!" Bailu, who was playing with a monkey at the time, threw away the stone in his hand and laughed loudly. "Xiaobai and his mother went to find his father together."

Suddenly, the doe burst into tears.

"Mother, why are you crying?" The little girl scratched her head with a puzzled face.

"The place where my mother goes is in the sky, and our Xiaobai can't go now," the woman suddenly hugged the girl who was about to cry out with the corners of her mouth pulled down, "Xiaobai, you have to learn to take care of yourself, be strong, and one day you will also grow wings, and you can fly to the sky to find your mother." β€œ

"Will I have wings too?" The girl in the woman's arms murmured.

She didn't know why her mother wanted to leave her, but she was a sensible deer and wouldn't let her mother go too sad, so she tried to control herself from tears when she was held in her arms.

"Yes! Of course, we Xiaobai will also have a pair of beautiful wings," the woman squatted down and kissed her daughter's forehead. "But it's hiding from you, you have to look for it with your heart, if you can't find it here, go to the outside world, and you will find it eventually." If one day you meet someone you like, and he can take our Xiaobai out of this place, you follow him, and maybe he can help you find your wings. β€œ

After speaking, the woman turned back into an elegant white elk, and a pair of large transparent wings grew from her back, the wings flapped slightly, and its body was radiating a holy light, and the doe knew that her time was short.

"Mother, let's come hide and seek, okay?" The girl said with an effort to make herself smile cutely.

The tearful white elk nodded his head twice.

"Mother, hide quickly! Xiaobai turned around and counted to fifty and was about to come to you," the girl turned her back and wiped the tears from her eyes with her immature palm. ”1、2、3、4……”

The doe took two steps back slightly, for fear of disturbing her child, and she stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the petite and shivering little girl with great nostalgia, and then leaped into the sky.

β€œ47、48、49、50γ€β€œ

The little girl opened her eyes with tears on her face, and she didn't really turn around and look for her mother as she had done before.

"Tell me! What's the best thing about our elk? She shouted out the questions she remembered her mother had asked her.

"It's jumping and running!" She replied loudly herself.

"Then Xiaobai, let's run together from now on!" The little girl continued to shout out her mother's words of encouragement.

"Xiaobai and his mother run together!"

The white deer began to run forward, her barefoot, chubby little feet were not afraid of the pebbles on the road, in the rugged and difficult col, she ran as fast as the wind, running and running Xiaobai became her original appearance, in front of a ravine white elk jumped over. She ran towards the sun, and under the rays of the sun, her tears turned into small shiny beads and were left behind. Compared with the departure of his mother, the pain brought to him by small stones and thorns is nothing; Compared with the ravine between heaven and earth, the distance between the small ditch in front of him is almost negligible.

Since that day, in addition to sleeping, practicing, foraging, and one more thing in her daily life, that is, climbing Luoxia Peak and standing at the place where her mother left looking at the sky in a daze, at the beginning, some friends in the mountains would follow her to watch, but later found that she was always sitting quietly on the stone like a piece of wood, they felt bored and no longer played with wood, and since then there has been a little girl who loves to watch the sunset on Luoxia Peak.

The day before yesterday, when she met An Ran's master and servant, it was the first time she saw real humans, they looked exactly the same as their transformed human self, just like the 'one nose, two pairs of eyes, two arms and two legs' mentioned by the mother's mother, and the little monkey and little flower she had seen before, of course, there were differences, they walked too slowly like snails, their eyes were not good, and they couldn't even get out of the 'maze' under the little monkey with vines.

But this did not prevent her from looking at them a few more times, her mother had said that some of the human beings under the mountain were very evil; Some are kind; What kind of human beings do these two humans belong to? Xiaobai didn't know, she only knew that the tall and good-looking young man also liked to watch the sunset.

At that time, An Ran was sitting on the stone where he had stayed and looking into the distance, and the blue-haired boy who was a year shorter than the young man was skewering around him with the dagger in his hand. Xiaobai timidly walked over and met them like this.

"This stone is mine." Xiaobai cautiously reminded.

It's not because she's stingy, this stone is where she and her mother have sat together, and the little girl thinks that others shouldn't occupy it.

"Why do you say this stone is yours?" Fan Yuntian stopped gesturing and raised his eyebrows to look at her, "Your name is engraved on it?" Or can you call it out? β€œ

He obviously stopped her, and Xiaobai thought for a while before replying, "This stone was sat on with my mother." ”

To be honest, this is not a qualified reason, so it is necessary for Fan Yuntian to scoff, and when the NPC kid was about to refute, the handsome man stopped him.

"Since it's yours, we'll let it." An Ran stood up and freed up the rounded stone, and simply sat down on the ground next to the stone.

"Why!"

Fan Yuntian was particularly unconvinced, but since his master didn't say anything, he could only practice the swordsmanship of 'Shadow Shock' more quickly.

An Ran didn't speak, and continued to look at the sunset in the distance, the little girl sat on the stone to watch the sunset, and occasionally secretly looked at the man next to her.

The dim light shone down from the distant western sky, illuminating the young man's black hair and face, and for some reason, Xiaobai always felt that he was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere. She struggled to remember the past, and a picture appeared in her little head, which was the same when her father came back from the hillside a long time ago, and the sun shone on him very warmly.

Xiaobai remembered that when she thought of that picture the day before yesterday, she involuntarily secretly moved towards the man, and then he found out.

"Aren't you going home yet?" An Ran asked with a smile, "It's not early." β€œ

Home? Where is my home? Xiaobai thought in frustration, "In the cave? Or in the woods? Is it still home without dad and mom? Little Monkey Xiaohua's home is not my home, although Uncle Monkey is very nice to me. β€œ

"I don't have a home!" The girl was a little aggrieved, tears rolling in her eyes.

An Ran fell silent, not knowing how to comfort the little girl beside him, of course the young man knew that this pink little girl was not human, and she could transform into a human form was definitely an existence that he couldn't provoke, but he didn't know why, he always felt that this little girl was very cute and pitiful, just like he lacked maternal love when he was a child, so he didn't know where he got the courage, and slowly stretched out his hand and touched the little girl sitting on the stone.

The girl instinctively shrunk her neck, and then she saw that the handsome man's hand was still above her head, and she plucked up the courage to meet his palm. His palms were warm and powerful, and the girl's tears finally burst out of her eyes.

"Mother...... Mother...... I said, Xiaobai didn't ...... No...... No wings...... You can't go to heaven to find ...... She, "The girl has been crying a lot these days, especially this time, and her tears are the size of summer raindrops, and she jumps over her face and hits the ground." Her shoulders twitched, her voice choked, and she couldn't even speak a complete sentence.

Fan Yuntian was so upset that he had to stop and look at this little girl who loved to cry, and frowned: "Hey! Women are really made of water. ”

An Ran glared at him viciously, "You little idiot can't be quiet for a while?" ”

"Gotcha! My master likes the new and hates the old! Lao Tzu went over there to see if he could find the bamboo forest, out of sight and out of mind. With that, the NPC kid whistled and walked away.

An Ran put her hand on the girl's head all the time, quietly waiting for her to stop crying.

"Did your mother go to heaven?" The handsome man asked.

"Hmm!" The little girl finally stopped sobbing, "She went to find her father, that place is far, far away, Xiaobai doesn't have wings yet, Xiaobai can't go to that place, my mother said that if I can find my wings one day, I can see them." β€œ

"This is a sad story of cultivating immortals," An Ran thought, "a couple who went to heaven to be immortals, leaving a little child in the world to suffer alone, helpless. In order to lay out a storyline, is the mastermind of Huaxia going to do this? β€œ

An Ran wronged the mastermind, not because it wanted to portray this sad story, but because of the survival rules of animals, many animals are not like humans, they treat their children much more ruthlessly, such as a lion will drive away its own child and let it live alone from home; For example, when an eagle teaches its cubs to fly, it simply picks up its own child and flies into the sky and throws it down. You can't say they don't love them, there's really no way, because lions will starve to death if they don't hunt themselves; Eagles can't fly, they can only be eaten. The competition in the animal kingdom is often a life-and-death struggle, far more brutal than the skill competition of our human beings. And it is not too much for the Huaxia mastermind to let the two old deer leave the fawn and let it grow on its own.

"You're a bird?" An Ran looked at the little girl gently and asked.

"I am a little white deer," the girl replied obediently, and then she asked, "do you like to watch the sunset?" Brother. ”

"I don't like it, but I can't help but watch it."

"Why don't you like it?" Xiaobai asked puzzled, leaning his little head.

"Because I also miss my mother, the mother you call out, sometimes I suspect that she is hiding behind the sun, and I hope that one day she will suddenly come to me from the side of the sun, so even though I feel bad to see the sunset, I still have to watch."

"I feel bad when I see the sunset...... But I want to see it too......" the little girl seemed to say to herself.

Then she moved to the left side of the stone, An Ran sat up tacitly, and the young man silently put his arm around the little girl and was in a daze with her, until the system prompted An Ran's health game time to startle.

"My brother is leaving!"

An Ran had to say this, because once she went offline, the girl would no longer be able to lean on her arm, a timid petite body, how could she resist the dark and terrifying cold night?

"Where is my brother going? Can you bring a little white ......?"

The little girl was very nervous, she was afraid that the familiar stranger would leave her alone; I'm afraid that the warm arm that holds me will suddenly disappear.

An Ran was very helpless, because he had to leave, which he couldn't control. Just when he couldn't find how to answer Bailu's question, Fan Yuntian helped him solve it.

"Hey!" The NPC kid said, "Kid, can you confess your relatives with blood?" is to see a person you like, bite your finger and let him taste his own blood, and then you also taste his blood, and you can follow him for the rest of your life. He's an adventurer, and I'm just like you, we can recognize him as our master, so this guy can't get out of our palms! β€œ

"Really?" The little girl was skeptical, "My mother said that if I meet someone I like, I can follow him, and he can help me find wings...... Brother, I like you very much, would you like to take me away? The girl's innocent and cute big eyes were watery, and even Fan Yuntian felt pity when she saw it.

"Let's try," An Ran said happily as she put her index finger into her mouth and bit it, "Little girl, let's try it...... By the way, are you afraid of pain? ”

The little girl sucked his blood and opened her mouth, "Xiaobai is not afraid of pain!" She also bit her hand and instructed An Ran to suck it too.

System: You make a deal with the spirit beast White Deer, which will become your mount.

System: You gain 300 Fame

Just like the master-servant agreement reached with Fan Yuntian in the back mountain of Daoxiang Village, a white light flashed on An Ran and the little girl's bodies at the same time, spreading like water waves.

"Great! I've become my master's mount, and I can walk around with him! The little girl jumped for joy, and she became a child and a white deer at one moment.

At that time, An Ran was a little unresponsive, he clicked on the attribute bar in confusion, and found that a white elk appeared in the mount bar. 'Elk Xiaobai' is her name, and An Ran chose to turn off the name on her head.

"You don't need to call me any master, you can just call me Brother An Ran like Little Brother Yuntian." An Ran said to Bailu.

"That's it!" Fan Yuntian said, "Let's just call him Brother An Ran, although nominally he is our master, in fact we are his ancestors, save him some face in front of outsiders, and when no one is around, he can beat and scold, don't be afraid that he is not good at all." β€œ

"This ...... Not so good! The little girl bit her finger and suddenly remembered something, "Lord...... Brother An Ran, the great god said that I can't leave you on my own when I become your mount, and I can carry you away when I become the way I was! I can run as fast as I canβ€”much faster than you guys. Bailu said proudly.

"So?" An Ran patted her little head gently, "But Brother An Ran is very heavy!" I'm afraid of crushing you. ”

"It's okay," Fan Yuntian added, "I'm not heavy, you'll carry me on your way in the future, will the little girl let your brother An Ran walk with you?" ”

"As long as Brother An Ran agrees." The little girl replied obediently. "Don't look at me, I'm a little girl, I have a lot of strength, I don't believe you look at it."

The little girl found another big rock nearby, this stone was at least as big as a double bed and weighed 10,000 pounds, the little girl rolled up her white sleeves to reveal her lotus arms, and she waved her arms in the air and shook them, 'Ah! With a bang, she clawed five fingers into the boulder, and all five fingers were cut into the stone, Xiaobai did not stop, and the other hand did the same, and the finger was also pulled into the stone. She was delicate again! With a second sound, the boulder was lifted off the ground.

The boulder was too big for her to hug, so she could only lift the edges and corners of the stone with her hands, but the stone was not only big but also heavy, and when the little girl just lifted the stone to the height of her waist, the stone where her finger was embedded was slammed, and the boulder without a focus point suddenly smashed on Xiaobai's bare feet, and the earth shook with a bang.

"How? I didn't lie to you! The little girl proudly patted the stone chips on her hands, pulled her little feet out from under the boulder, and muttered.

Then she saw two stunned men frozen in place, their mouths big enough to swallow an egg.

"What's wrong with you?" She asked with a frown.

"Your strength is very strong," An Ran gasped and came back to his senses first, "at least it's bigger than your brother Fan Yuntian." β€œ

"Fuck!" Fan Yuntian scolded directly, "The guys in this mountain are all monsters!" Disastrous! It's amazing! β€œ

"I'm a white, not a monster!" The little girl glanced at Fan Yuntian defiantly, "If you dare to call me a monster, I will beat you!" With that, the little girl waved her pink little fist.

"Brother Enron, why haven't you gone offline? I'm so tired, hurry up and lock me up! Fan Yuntian said with a cold sweat on his back and a depressed expression.

An Ran was originally worried that Fan Yuntian's character would bully the little girl, but now it seems that this guy is afraid that self-protection will become a problem, who would dare to provoke such a little girl? After taking her, you can swagger and swagger through the market. However, when he came out of Qingyun Mountain, he realized that he was thinking too much.

"What's wrong with Brother Yuntian?" The little girl scratched her head, puzzled.

"It's not too early, Brother An Ran will take you to sleep, okay?"

"Hmm!" Xiaobai nodded obediently.

An Ran took the white deer back to the mount space, and also took the depressed Fan Yuntian back to the servant space, what the handsome young man actually wanted to say was: "You scared your brother Yuntian, who is not afraid of heaven and earth." ’
