Chapter 5: Fox Friends (2)
Anyway, it depends on the owner to beat the dog! No, you have to ask the owner to kill the fox.
"Those demons chasing me were sent by the Wolf King, and they ...... They wanted to rob my mom and dad of the relics they left me, so they kept chasing me. Summer said with her head down. My father and mother were killed twenty years ago, and I fled with that relic for twenty years. ”
What?! Twenty years! Xia Mu's eyes widened and he looked at the little boy in front of him, who was obviously twelve or thirteen years old at most, and rubbed his eyes again, right?
"That...... Excuse me, how old are you? ”
"I'm one hundred and twenty years old."
"Hmph~~" Xia Mu thought to himself: Oh my God! More than 100 years old! Then I still let you call me my mother and call me sister? I should call you ancestor.
"Some time ago, I was discovered by Ge Tao, the deputy commander of the wolf clan, and I was almost caught by them. Fortunately, he was lucky enough to escape, so he had to escape all the way out of the demon world, and met his sister when he passed through Jialai Town. At that time, I was cold and hungry, so you picked me up and gave me meat to eat, and I was really grateful to my sister for saving my life. ”
"Wait, why don't you call me sister, just call me Xia Mu." Waved his hand weakly. "The relics left by your father and mother, you must take them away yourself. Is it worth it? You said that it was the wolf king who sent the demon to chase you? He can be so poor as a wolf king, and he has to chase you a wandering little fox to steal things. It seems that the life of your demon clan is very difficult. ”
"There are many kings in the demon clan, and basically there will be a king in a species. Among them, the more powerful ones are the Tiger King, the Wolf King, the Snake King, and the Locust Tree Spirit. Situ Lan suddenly explained.
"Huh? It's really a chain of creatures that eat the jungle, similar to what we see in the world over there. ”
"Everything is circular."
"Yes, as Immortal Venerable said. It's just that our vein is not strong in the demon clan, and my father and mother have passed away, so I can only be alone, so they always bully me. With that, the little fox began to cry and chirp.
"Well, don't cry yet. If you look at his face, you know that he doesn't like children with crying noses. "Xia Mu is not good at coaxing children, and he was in a hurry, so he had to move Situ Lan out in the end.
"......" Situ Lan.
"Well, I won't cry anymore, but Sister Xia Mu, can you talk to Xianzun and let me follow you? That Ge Tao also chased me to the world, and I could feel that he was not far from here, and if you left me behind, they would definitely find me and tear me apart. Tell Immortal Venerable! ”
This ...... "Hehe, little ancestor, I don't count what I said." I'm an unfamiliar person, who has no money and no power, in fact, I'm weaker and helplesser than you, and I also have to look at the face of that big brother.
But looking at the little summer in front of me, I talked about this, and then I remembered that I was a child, wasn't I so lonely. If it weren't for today's kind-hearted person's hand, tomorrow's enthusiastic aunt donated some money, and she had been warmed by so much kindness, I guess I wouldn't have lived today. So, I gritted my teeth and decided to give it a try. So he squatted weakly in front of Situ Lan, gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, and said with a flattering smile: "Master Situ, you see, if he turns back into a little fox, won't he be able to eat much and occupy much space?" ”
Situ Lan didn't speak, just glanced condescendingly at Xia who was kneeling in front of her, and then looked down at Xia Mu, who was smiling flatteringly at her feet with her face up, she was like a kitten with low eyebrows, gently teasing the hem of her clothes.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken, Xia Mu thought to himself: Alas! I've tried my best, okay or not, and I can only help you get here. It seems that Situ Lan will not agree. Just when she was about to give up and stand up, she heard Situ Lan say, "Go back to the cage at night." ”
Oh yes! Xia Mu was stunned for a moment, and reacted, did he agree?! Busy squeezing his eyes towards summer. Summer was also delighted, nodded obediently, and turned back into a little fox.
"Thank you, Situ Lan." Xia Mu felt that he needed to thank him, as if after he came to this world, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it really troubled him a lot.
"Not necessarily." Situ Lan said. It's completely impossible to see his joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
Xia Mu is a little helpless, this person is really difficult to approach. I could only nod and go back to my room.
Lying on the bed and tossing and turning and unable to fall asleep, remembering the scene where Situ Lan suddenly appeared in the bath just now, forgive this woman for not being embarrassed at all. Because she felt that she was still much more conservative in the shower today than her usual bikini by the sea. She was just a little concerned, her figure was in Situ Lan's place, could she still be eye-catching......
When he woke up the next day and was about to set off, Situ Lan actually brought two horses, one brown and one white.
Xia Muben wanted to ask why he didn't have Edgeworth, wasn't that much faster? But when the words came to his mouth and he swallowed again, maybe it would take a lot of mana and energy for Edgeworth, especially to add his own weight, although he resisted admitting his weight in his heart. But he doesn't know how to resist the sword, so naturally he can say whatever he wants, and he is not bad at horseback. Happily running up to pick out the tall brown horse, and began to feed and please. "Big brother, you have to be gentle with me for a while, although I also rode a horse when I was acting, but that was a long time ago. You must not be irritable, if you are unhappy and don't want to leave, tell me, don't be angry with me, and don't dump me, please! ”
"You don't know how to ride a horse?" Situ Lan said.
"Yes!" Xia Mu immediately said that she had been afraid of causing trouble to others since she was a child, especially now, she really didn't want to make trouble for Situ Lan because of herself: "Maybe, maybe, it's just not so skilled, it's okay, practice makes perfect." I rode it when I was filming before, and the instructors all said that I had talent, don't worry! It's not going to hold you back. ”
Situ Lan was silent for a moment and said, "Don't be in a hurry, ride slowly." ”
"yes, okay."
Sure enough, the two rode their horses on the road slowly, Xia Mu wanted to be fast, but he didn't dare at first, so he had to pull tightly on the reins and follow behind. She actually deliberately chose this zong-colored horse by herself, just to see Situ Lan riding on a white horse, his body is still as straight as a pine and cypress, with his own aura. The pure white robe floated up with the horse's jump, and his whole body shimmered against the sun, making people lose their eyes. Xia Mu thought: This is probably the Prince Charming in the story.
Situ Lan didn't ride fast, and the horses didn't even run, but just walked 'Tata'. As soon as she turned around, she saw that Xia Mu was staring at her, but as soon as the eyes of the two touched, she quickly dodged away, then pulled the reins for a while, and lowered her head to touch the horse. Situ Lan thought: She probably really can't ride a horse, she is too nervous. So this immortal venerable, who was not good at expressing himself, quietly made his horse slower and tried to be side by side with Xia Mu without being too far apart.
Summer had been put in a cage and tied to the back of Natsuraku's horse, but her riding skills were so poor that after most of the day, the little fox would rather run after the horse than insist on riding with her again.
At such a speed, until it was close to evening, the two did not rush to the next town, and could only find a broken grass house in the wilderness, and reluctantly prepared to spend the night here. Xia Mu felt very guilty, blaming himself for riding too slowly, so that he had to sleep in the wilderness with him.
But what Situ Lan said was still 'okay'.
"This firewood is enough, it won't be a problem to burn it all night." Clapping his hands, seeing that Xia Xia was already dizzy and tired and paralyzed by himself, as for Situ Lan, such an immortal man, how could he let him go to collect firewood and make a fire. Alas! I can only do it myself, but fortunately, it is not the first time to camp in the wild, and I have relatively rich experience.
"Sister Xia Mu, let me help you." Summer, who finally recovered, asked.
"No, no, you can rest, I'll come. Well, I'll see what I'm going to do next, let me think about it. "Are you going to drill wood for fire? There were no matches and no lighters. But how do you work that ancient skill? Ah! Why didn't you learn to learn it before, it was a mistake!
'Whoa', the pile of firewood actually spontaneously combusted, scared the summer curtain here again, although the summer transformed into a human form, but after all, it was still a fox, and it was also frightened by the fire.
"Big brother...... Will you still make a fire? Hehe, it's amazing. "This man is Doraemon, is there anything he can't handle?
After warming up the dry food he brought and padding his stomach, Xia Mu laid two positions for himself and Situ Lan with hay, and then put his cloak underneath, and lay down by the fire, quietly watching Situ Lan meditate. It gets dark early this season, and the summer curtain is estimated to be seven or eight o'clock at most. I glanced sideways at Summer, who had turned back into a little fox, and had already buried my head in my paws and fallen asleep. It's boring, it's quiet!
I really couldn't sleep, so I had to sit up and start entertaining myself again, first holding Chang'an and blowing wildly, the flute was wet with saliva, and I didn't make any sound, and then I picked up Xiao Xia and shook it awake: "What time is it, what do you sleep, get up and accompany me." ”
"Huh? What the? The little fox took on a human form again, and asked with sleepy eyes.
"Oops! I can't sleep, I'm so bored. You can tell me the story of your demon clan, and it will give me some knowledge, and I will make up for it. Xia Mu whispered, he didn't dare to disturb Situ Lan, who was cultivating, so he could only take this little fox.
"Sister, you can let Xianzun tell you." Summer tilts her head.
Xia Mu unceremoniously slapped him right: "Let you talk about it, what so much nonsense." ”
She said in her heart: I know you are afraid of him, but don't say it as if I am not afraid of him. Situ Lan was too cold to know what was going on in his heart, let alone what topics he liked. Do you want to say: Situ Lan, you tell me a story and put me to sleep? Because I'm in my world, I have to listen to the "Boyfriend Sleep" and "Boyfriend Wake Up" series in radio dramas every day.
"And what do you want to hear?"
"Well, that's fine, just tell me your story." I don't pick it, just have someone talk to me, otherwise I'm really going to suffocate to death!!
