Small lake

Du Ruo is really a little unaccustomed to the appearance of the fat tiger's real body. Although he doesn't have the hair on his back like some wild beasts, but what is such a big one, such a big one? Du Ruo didn't know, like a leopard and bigger than a leopard, what about a tiger, bigger than a tiger, and this mass of tails, how to look like a rabbit. And the two tufts of black hair on those ears, what are they used for? But it does feel safe lying on his back. The fat tiger is not like other thousand-year-old demons who are all flying in the clouds, nor are they running at high speed like ordinary beasts, but they jump forward, jumping about three feet away, and jumping again after landing.

"Are you a rabbit leopard?" Finally, Du Ruo still couldn't hold back his curiosity.

Fat Tiger was in the air at this time, and when he heard her ask, he almost fell because of his unstable chassis. "What is a panther?"

"The pattern on your body is like a leopard, and your tail is like a rabbit, isn't this a rabbit and a leopard?" Du Ruo asked seriously.

The fat tiger was dumbfounded, "People are lynxes!"

"Lynx?" Du Ruo heard about this animal for the first time, and her heart suddenly moved, and she asked him again: "Then can you transform into a human form?"

Fat Tiger pondered for a moment and replied to her: "In principle, it is possible, but I haven't tried it, and I don't know which humanoid shape is the best-looking." ”

Du Ruo thought of herself, she should be good-looking, but the scar on her face should not be erased, thinking of this, her heart suddenly felt a little sour. Buried in the hair of the fat tiger's neck, she was a little uncomfortable, she felt that her temperament seemed to have changed a little since she came to Yihu, but she couldn't say it, she only felt that she was not as cold as before.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Fat Tiger guessed that she was probably tired. Then he asked, "Sister, do you want to sleep?"

Du Ruo came to his senses and replied to him: "No, by the way, did you apply medicine on my face before, why do I feel no pain?"

"Uh, no, it's my saliva. Fat Tiger was obviously a little weak when he said this.

No wonder Du Ruo only felt that his eyes were dark before, and it turned out that his tongue was thrown on his face. By the way, she suddenly thought of Qingyun again, since he is the Demon Emperor, what is his true body?" Du Ruo called him.

Fat Tiger subconsciously agreed, but as if he remembered something, he immediately retorted: "People have names, grandpa calls me Xiaoli." ”

Du Ruo nodded, and asked again: "Fat Tiger, do you know the Demon Emperor Qingyun?"

"Chestnut!" Fat Tiger corrected, and after a moment he replied to her, his voice quite like that of a little adult. "Of course I know, that's the legend of our demon clan, but I've only heard of it, since I can remember, I was brought back to Luofu Mountain by my grandfather, and then he soared and I rarely had contact with other demon clans. ”

Du Ruo knew that the grandfather he was talking about was Ge Xianweng, and he should have a deep relationship with Ge Xianweng. But since this is the case, then why does he want to recognize himself as his master? Thinking of the first time she met the fat tiger at the foot of Luofu Mountain, she thought of the giant snake, and when she thought of the giant snake, she naturally thought of Qingyun. After a pause, she asked again, "Why did you say I was an immortal before?"

"The first time I saw you cultivating under the mountain, when you entered the meditation, it was different from ordinary Taoist priests, I smelled that smell when my grandfather's corpse was dismembered into an immortal, and I felt that you had the breath of your grandfather, and that kind of breath can't be wrong. When Fat Tiger said this, his eyes lit up.

"But I'm obviously just a mortal, maybe I'm just a clone of that fairy. Du Ruo suddenly felt a little bitter, she had read a classic book before, which said that the doppelganger of the gods only existed for a certain mission, although it was independent of the real body, but there was no memory of the real body, and once the mission was completed, it would return to the real body, and from then on, the will of the doppelganger would obey the strong will of the real body, which was obviously to erase the existence of the doppelganger.

Fat Tiger could feel Du Ruo's helplessness, in fact, he wasn't sure, but maybe she was the immortal herself. Thinking of this, he comforted: "Sister, you shouldn't be a doppelganger, although I can't say clearly, but you are definitely not." ”

Du Ruo let out a soft "um" and buried herself in the neck of the fat tiger, she was indeed a little tired.

Du Ruo felt the wind whistling in her ears, but the fat tiger jumped very steadily, and it made her sleepy.

She dreamed again, still in the bamboo forest on that high platform, and she still couldn't see the appearance of those people clearly. But this time Uncle Qingyun didn't come, and the fat girl was gone, replaced by a woman, looking at her figure, she should be a young woman.

"Master, I don't want to go down to earth, I just don't go down to earth!" The woman's voice was very similar to Du Ruo's, but a little more delicate.

The Master's voice was as calm as before, and the feeling of ancient water without waves. "The immortals who grew up in this heavenly realm have to go down to earth to experience when they become adults, your temperament is too impetuous, how can you be a good immortal if you don't hone it?"

"What is a good immortal? Wouldn't I be a good immortal if I didn't descend to earth?"

The master sighed, a little helpless: "The immortals are the defenders of the Heavenly Dao, and this world can only run because of the Heavenly Dao, from rivers and lakes to seas, as small as a drop of water and a leaf, all of them have their own laws, and what the immortals have to do is to maintain this law and let it run normally. ”

"But my mana is imprisoned, what should I do if I am alone in the world?"

"Only by living as a mortal can you understand the suffering of all beings. Biluo, go ahead. With a wave of his hand, the young woman disappeared.

......

When Du Ruo opened his eyes, it was already evening.

She looked around and saw a lake in front of her. The sunset is about to hide under the dense forest, and the sunset will be the same as the water and the sky. The place was not big, except for the small lake in front of her, which could only be called a pond, which was the meadow where she was lying now, surrounded by woods and low bushes, and there were some flowers and plants that she did not recognize, and they were densely blooming all over the shore, and Du Ruo could smell the fragrance of these flowers as the evening breeze blew lightly.

The fat tiger was squatting not far away, looking thoughtfully at the lake.

Suddenly, the surface of the lake moved, and before Du Ruo could see it clearly, in the blink of an eye, there was already a silver-white fish in the fat tiger's mouth. And all over his body, except for the hair on the side of his mouth that was a little wet, there was no water in other places.

The fat tiger threw the fish at Du Ruo's feet, and his tone was quite like asking for credit: "Sister, we have fish to eat tonight!"
