On that day, the snow-white clouds did their best to cover the blue sky, and sometimes a few bright lights fell through the gaps in the clouds and fell to the ground carefully. From time to time, a few dead leaves, cutting off the already subtle light, flew down leisurely, accompanied by a gentle sound of landing, and a flower bloomed on the ground.

It has been dozens of days since we separated, and we have long since walked out of the sun. What appears in front of us now is a large choppy river, nearly ten miles wide at its narrowest. Such a big river has to rely on ferries to get by, but we have followed it for a long time, and still have not found the shadow of the ferry.

He Yun was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "What should I do?" Can't get by? How did the people of Danyang City go north? Let's go back and ask! As he spoke, he hurried back.

"Hey—" Pin Qilei pulled him back, "do you have any brains?" It's only been ten days since we've been here, and you're going back? In my opinion, we still have to figure it out ourselves. ”

"Think for yourself? Brother Pin, do you want to wade through the water or do you want to be a boat? He Yunwu flicked his sleeves.

Pin Qilei snorted and ignored him.

At this time, the little tail collapsed into a pool of liquid on the ground because of fatigue. After a while, it bounced excitedly and drilled straight into my arms: "Sister Ling Ran, don't you know how to spell?" Wouldn't you just turn into an ice bridge and come out? ”

yes, I didn't think of that! If you can't cross the river with ordinary methods, why don't you use your own special abilities? Thinking so, I smiled and touched the head of the little tail, and the fluffy little brain melon was also rubbing in the palm of my hand.

"Makes sense!" The two of them said in unison, then pointed at each other, "It's all your fault for blinding my wisdom!" Do you learn me to speak? Still learning? Hum! The two shook their heads at the same time and walked away.

I approached the shore.

The already turbulent river water is even more turbid at this time. A gust of wind came from nowhere, and the river lifted layer by layer, hitting the reef in the water hard. A few swallows flew by the shore, and another layer of waves crashed, and the water splashed, and they disappeared in an instant.

On such a river, if you want to build an ice bridge, you will never succeed by relying on the art of making water.

So I raised my luck, and my fingertips sprinkled with red light, flying around a little bit, and forming a clump. I continued to dance the flowers, and the light gathered bigger and bigger, and brighter and brighter, to the point of blindness. At this point, I retracted the light and hit it out in an instant. I saw that the river aquatic life that was originally fangs and claws was split, and the distance of three zhang from it was separated.

Wherever the light group went, the water immediately turned into ice, and from a distance, it looked like an ice blanket slowly spreading towards the opposite side. As the light mass shrank, an ice-like slab bridge was built. The waves were still raging, but the bridge was standing. We stepped on the ice and crossed the river smoothly.

As soon as our feet stepped on the opposite shore, a puff of lilac smoke filled the air, and we were shrouded in fog and could not see anyone else.

I called out to everyone as I cleared the fog. When I turned around, suddenly a pair of hands gently hugged me, it was He Yunwei!

After a while, the smoke cleared, and we were still by the river, but the thunder and the little tail were gone!

He Yunwu took my hand and said with a smile: "Ling Ran, Brother Pin and Little Tail have passed, let's go too." As he spoke, he pointed to a clearing not far ahead.

I let him take my hand and smile lightly. To be honest, I'm greedy for this kind of palm temperature. However, for some reason, the scene of him talking and laughing with Zi Sangrou suddenly appeared in his mind. I shook his hand away.

He Yun was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

Not much, I just feel disgusting. I glanced at him, quickened my pace, and left him behind.

"Hehehe...... Childe is so nice. Behind him rang out a string of silver bell-like laughter and a sweet voice.

I looked back and saw a woman dressed in red snuggling up in He Yunwei's arms! It was like a fist in my heart, stuffy and painful, and a nameless fire came out of my heart like a small snake.

What's wrong with me, am I angry? I'm angry with He Yun, how can it be, he is not qualified to make me angry.

The woman's hand caressed He Yunyou's face, He Yunwei grabbed her hand, put his hand on his heart, and then held the woman's face and stared affectionately.

My heart was pounding, my fists were clenched, my breath was barely moving. He Yunxian is worried! The scum of the morning and evening!

No, what does he have to do with me? What am I scolding him for? I won't be angry with him, I won't be jealous of the woman, and I can't resent them and break the ring, I can't ...... I simply turned my back.

I looked up. Wrong! Where did the woman come from?

I turned around quickly, and with luck in my hand, I struck out with a palm, and the woman and He Yunwu disappeared in an instant.

It's an illusion!

It must be that puff of smoke!

If even I was bewitched, how could they have survived? Now all I have to do is find them as quickly as possible and pull them out of the illusion.

"Lu Ran-" He Yunwei shouted not far away, "Don't go, that's all a misunderstanding!" ”

I heard the sound and rushed over. The person in front of him was talking to the air with his eyes open, and when he was excited, he even made a gesture of wrapping his hands around the shoulders of others. It seems that he was also fascinated.

"Ling Ran, when I talk to Zi Sangrou, it's all for you to see!" He said eagerly.

When I heard this, my heart seemed to open up a little.

"But what about you? They don't care about me at all, they don't even look at me, so how can they be jealous. ”

I? Jealous? Inexistent.

"It was indeed the little tail that attached itself to my body that saved you that day, and this is what I later knew."

Small tails? So, it was the little tail holding my hand that day? It's a ...... little guy

"Yes, yes, yes! I don't want to wear women's clothes, but I definitely want to save your heart. I don't wear women's clothes just because I don't want you to look down on me! ”

Don't worry, you've long been looked down upon by me.

"What? You're going to marry Little Tail? ”

Married to Little Tail?

One didn't pay attention, and I choked on my own saliva. This He Yunwei's dream is getting more and more outrageous, and it's time for him to wake up.

I punched him hard in the head. I don't know why, I still want to fight again after the fight, it's so relieving.

"Who? Who hit me? He Yun guarded his head, looked left and right, and then saw me. Seeing me rubbing his hands, he said aggrievedly: "Ling Ran, you actually beat me in order to marry Little Tail!" ”

I continued to rub my hands and said, "If you can see me, the illusion has been broken." ”

He was confused: "Illusions? What illusion? So you were fake? ”

"So to speak."

"Great! So you're not marrying Little Tail anymore! He was ecstatic.

I remembered the conversation I had with Little Tail before, and I really didn't want to splash him with cold water, but I still said it: "I want to marry." I promised it, and I will marry it when it becomes a man. ”

"No way!" He looked sour, "It's a cat, no, demon!" ”

"You can't be a man." I deliberately said, "Find them quickly, they're trapped in the illusion too." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a terrible cat chirp in the distance. Something went wrong? We rushed over.

I saw the little tail facing the air in front of him, with a sad expression: "Sister Ling Ran, I have become a human, why are you still married to Yunyun's brother-in-law?" ”

As soon as I arrived here, I didn't stand firmly, and I heard it say something similar to He Yunwu, and I stumbled and almost threw myself on the ground.

He Yunwu smiled evilly: "Hehehe...... This little tail is not simple. ”

I glared at him, then gently patted the little head of the little tail, and in a few moments, it woke up. As soon as he saw me, he jumped into my arms and rubbed my hand vigorously, crying and saying, "Sister Ling Ran, I like you, you can't go ......"

I stroked it and said, "Okay, my sister won't leave." It is all an illusion, and it is not counted. ”

It snorted and choked back tears, and said aggrievedly, "Really? ”

"Of course it's true!"

"Huh? Why are you all here? Pinqilei stepped over and shouted at the top of his voice, "You guys are also out?" ”

I said to him, "'Also'? Do you know it's an illusion? ”

"Of course?" He patted his chest with great pride.

He Yunwei was a little angry: "Then why didn't you say it in advance?" ”

"I ...... Didn't you know that? ”

"Alright." I interrupted them, "Let's go, it's not good if that smoke comes again." ”

"Hahahaha......" A wild laugh was like a thunderbolt, breaking through the water and resounding in the sky. Following the prestige, I saw a behemoth rushing out of the water, which seemed to be Jiao. But if it is a Jiao, it is not like it, because it has forked antlers on its head and a red mane from its neck to its back. Its scales are dark earthy, and if you look closely at the waist, you can see that all the scales grow backwards from the waist down.

"It's a mirage!" Pin Qilei exclaimed.

"Not bad!" The voice of the mirage dragon sounded like the roar of a hundred beasts in unison, shocking but terrifying.

He Yunwu pointed at it: "Are the illusions just now all your ghosts?" ”

It said dismissively, "Yes." ”

"Why are you playing this trick on us?" He Yunwu asked.

"Play?" The mirage's eyes suddenly widened, "You guys played me first!" "The sound was deafening.

"How are we fooling you?"

"And the face asked! I ate a few swallows just now, and you drove me from the south shore all the way to the north shore with ice? ”

As soon as it said that, I understood. So he said to it, "Mirage, I'm sorry! I didn't know you were underwater. ”

"Don't know? If you don't know, it's over? You're going to compensate me! There was some grievance in its tone, but it was still mainly commanding.

"You've already punished us with an illusion just now, what more compensation do you want?" The little tail saw that it was fierce to me, and jumped up unconvinced.

"Yo, there's a kitten! It's so cute...... Ahem. I'm going to settle this compensation! ”

"Compensation, what kind of compensation do you mean?" Pin Qilei said.

"I like to eat swallows, but I can't catch a few in a day. I'll punish you for catching swallows for me, not much, three hundred is enough. It said solemnly, and then licked its mouth secretly.

"Three hundred! Why don't you die? He Yunwu blurted out, but regretted it after speaking, covering his mouth and looking at the mirage with a weak heart, lest he swallow himself in a mouthful.

When the mirage heard this, not only did he not get angry, but thought about it for a while, and said, "It seems that you have eaten a little too much, so ...... A hundred, a hundred! Send it before dark, or you won't want to leave! ”

With that, it laughed and dived underwater. There was no choice but to catch the swallow at his request. However, a hundred swallows, for the three of us and one cat to catch them before dark, is completely foolish!

While thinking about it, the little tail had already brought six or seven swallows in his mouth. Looking at its jumping little figure, a few of us suddenly had confidence and rolled up our sleeves to join it.

Sure enough, as night fell, we only caught thirty-nine in total, far from meeting the mirage's requirements.

The waves crashed on the shore, the mirage rose again, and when he was laughing, he was stunned when he saw the swallow.

He Yunchou hurriedly explained: "Mirage, this is already a lot, you will eat it." Originally, the swallows all lived in the city, but it was not easy to find them in this suburb, so don't embarrass us. ”

The mirage stammered, "This, this, and this are too ......."

"Too little? It's a lot, it's a lot, look at this ......."

"Too many!" The mirage's eyes lit up, and it rolled with joy, it didn't matter if it toppled over, who knew it would bring a splash, and the splash was like rain, and it made us soaked. It continued, "I've never seen so many swallows at once!" Thank you! Thank you kitten! ”

We looked at this big man like a child, looking at each other, and the scene was extremely embarrassing.

"Kitten, come here, you have caught the most swallows, and give you a conch that I have treasured for many years."

Little Tail looked at me, twisted and pinched: "We made you angry in the first place, and the promised compensation was not honored, and now you are here to reward me again, how can I be embarrassed to accept it?" ”

"Take it! What's embarrassing, whenever you want to do something with me, call my name to that conch mouth, the Mirage Dragon, and I'll appear! ”

"Thank you, then." The little tail smiled and stretched out his fleshy claws to catch the conch.

We all laughed at the happy ending. However, there was one person who laughed unnaturally.
