Episode 80 Separation and Encounter
"Mom. â
"Hmm. â
Shenqi was busy combing Alice's hair, and answered a little nonchalantly.
"What's the matter?"
"I ......"
The girl stopped talking, hesitated slightly.
"I want to find Xiao Ai. â
"Huh?"
Shenqi's hand movements paused visibly, as if she was very surprised by her request.
"Are you going to see Xiao Ai?"
"Hmm. â
Alice nodded.
"Also, I want to go out for a walk. â
"That's right......"
Shenqi began to continue to comb the girl's hair again, but her tone was a little low.
The children have grown up, and they are ready to fly away from them!
Although I have been prepared in my heart, I still feel very reluctant when it comes to the end.
"Just going out for a while, I'll be back soon. â
Thinking that she was upset, Alice quickly added.
Xiao Ai is gone, if she doesn't even accompany her mother, then she will be too lonely.
"That's right!"
Hearing this, Shenqi suddenly became much happier.
Also, it's not okay to lock them in by yourself all the time, so you should let them have a good time in the outside world!
As long as they remember the way back.
"It's no problem for you to find Xiao Ai, but I have a request......"
As they drifted away, the city of the demons was finally covered by the mountains, and they could no longer be seen.
It was only then that Alice took her gaze back.
The mood seems to be a little melancholy, and I suddenly leave my mother's side, and I always feel a little uneasy.
However, when she saw the group of people following behind her, she couldn't help but sigh secretly.
"Miss Alice, is there any problem?"
Hearing her sigh, Minro stepped forward and asked.
When Shenqi found her and asked her to be Alice's escort when she went out, Mingluo agreed without thinking.
This can be regarded as repaying the other party for taking care of you all the time!
"There are so many problems!"
The girl couldn't help but complain in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.
Yuki and Mai, Jin Yao Twins, Luiz, Mingluo, this time she went out, and her mother sent almost all the people around her! Even so, she still couldn't rest assured, and even wanted Yumeko to come with her, but she was resolutely refused.
What are you kidding, if even Mengzi is taken away by himself, there will be no one around my mother who can summon her!
However, I thought I was on the road alone, but now it has become a group of people, which makes the girl's heart both moved and a little helpless.
Mom, isn't that worrying a little too much?
Seeing Alice's very melancholy face, Ming Luo thought that the other party was worried about the road ahead and whether he would encounter any danger.
"Don't worry, Miss Alice, there will be no problem with me. â
She has walked this road many times, and the danger of saving zĂ i can be dealt with even if she is alone, not to mention that there are other people here.
"Yes, yes, Miss Alice, you don't have to worry so much, we're here!"
Not to be outdone, Xue and Wu stepped forward and shouted loudly.
"Hey...... Thank you. â
Alice was a little speechless, she wasn't thinking about these questions, but all in all, she was very grateful for their care.
Forget it, since it's all out, don't think about it so much.
"Okay, let's go!"
"Yes......"
One last glance back, the girl resolutely embarked on the road to Gensokyo.
"By the way, Mingluo, you seem to be originally from Gensokyo, can you tell me what kind of place it is?"
"Hmm...... There are a lot of youkai and they are also very dangerous, so it was best not to run around in the past, otherwise you might be eaten. However, it seems to be a little different now. â
"That's it......"
============================= divider =============================
Tonight's moonlight is very beautiful.
The cold and clear moonlight shone on the smooth mirror-like surface of the lake, and it looked as if a moon had appeared in the lake. When the surface of the lake shakes, the moon in the water will be torn to shreds and turn into a messy glow.
"Whoa. â
There was a loud sound of water, and in the bright moonlight, a green figure emerged from the water and landed steadily on the bare rocks in the lake.
"Hoo ......"
The girl spread her hands and let out a long breath, as if she was stretching. Then she put her hands on the rock beneath her and moved her shoulders.
The surrounding scenery was a little gloomy, and when I looked up, I saw that it was not the sun in the sky, but a brilliant moon.
It turned out that it was already night! I didn't expect to sleep for so long.
The girl gently slapped the water with her thick tail, but her heart was a little depressed.
She didn't seem to find any other way to pass the boring days than sleep.
Ruolu Ji suddenly felt a little sad, has she been forgotten by others?
It's been a long time and no one has been here. The surrounding mountains are like huge walls that block anyone's intrusion.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a small cabin by the lake, Wakashihime would have even wondered if anyone had ever been here.
Even if someone did come, it still made her feel a deep sense of loneliness at this moment.
"Woo......"
The girl is a little melancholy, hiding in this isolated place, it is true that she will not encounter any danger, but is this really enough?
It's so sad to be alone here.
"It's lonely. â
Everybody is so good! She couldn't be more grateful to be able to come and talk to her a few words.
"Woo ......"
"Huh?"
This time, the call was not made by Ruolu Hime. She turned her head to look at the shore, and in front of the wooden house, there seemed to be a flash of light, and then a few more people came.
The girl was stunned for a moment, then sank silently into the water, and swam very slowly towards the shore.
Although she would love someone to come, if the people who showed up were some kind of people who would pose a threat to her, she would have to dive to the bottom of the lake and hide.
"Whew!"
There was still a considerable distance from the shore of the lake, and a strange roar scared Ruolu Ji all over.
She'd never heard it before! it sounded like some kind of animal call.
Moreover, this animal is definitely not friendly, and the roar alone made goosebumps jump all over her body.
"Haven't you slept yet?"
Then another voice sounded, but the girl immediately calmed down. She immediately picked up speed and swam towards the shore.
As she got closer, with the help of the bright moonlight, she finally saw who was coming.
Sure enough, the other party is Dongfang Yao.
At his feet, there was also a dog-like animal, which the man was comforting.
Hearing the sound of paddling, the animal looked up.
Wakaru stopped swimming all of a sudden.
What the hell was this? What she saw was a human face, and it was a pretty cute girl's face. The mermaid girl had never heard of an animal with a human face in the world.
I don't know if it's reflecting the moon's rays, or if it's glowing itself, but in the dim environment, this guy's eyes are still shining. As it kept staring at, I felt the cold hairs all over my body stand up.
"Alright, alright. â
I yawned and gently stroked the Imaizumi Shadow Wolf to calm her down.
This guy was scratching and biting outside my door in the middle of the night, and he woke me up.
I guess I slept too much during the day, and I was overloaded at night!
I had no choice but to take her out for a walk.
It's like walking the dog!
Although the timing is a bit unreasonable.
You can't go anywhere else, and if someone sees you, you'll get into trouble. Due to the news of the tengu, Imaizumi Shadow Wolf has now become a first-class dangerous existence in Gensokyo, and as long as it is discovered, it will definitely cause a lot of chaos. So after thinking about it, I took her to this more secluded place.
Imaizumi Shadow Wolf seemed to like it a lot, and as soon as she arrived, she ran around excitedly, but then she took a defensive stance towards the lake.
When I heard the splash, I knew who was coming.
During this time, I almost completely forgot about her! Even when the dragon god came, I forgot to invite her to a banquet.
"Is it Lord Dongfang?"
Three or four meters away from the shore of the lake, Ruolu Ji stopped, raised her head and asked.
From time to time, her eyes glanced at the crouching thing next to the man, wondering what kind of creature it was.
"It's me, I thought you were asleep!"
Actually, I can't remember that there were still people living here.
"No, but I just woke up. â
The dog-like animal next to the other party was always staring at this side, and his eyes looked like he was going to eat himself, which made the girl feel very uncomfortable.
"Lord Dongfang, what the hell is this one...... What?"
I was embarrassed, but Ruolu Ji asked anyway.
Maybe it's some kind of monster she doesn't know! But if she doesn't ask clearly, she can't let go of it.
Something unknown is always unsettling.
"Oh, she!"
I lifted the Imaizumi Shadow Wolf's hood, revealing her pointed ears.
"Oh......"
Then it dawned on the girl that the other party was not a strange creature, but just put on a leather case and was outside!
"Whew!"
The Imaizumi Shadow Wolf didn't seem to like me taking off his hood, so he kept shaking his head and flicking it with his hand a few times, but he couldn't put it back on, and finally he could only look at me with pitiful eyes.
I patted her on the head and helped her put the hood back on.
The Imaizumi Shadow Wolf immediately whispered, leaned over and rubbed my leg a few times.
This scene was dumbfounded, the girl wearing a holster outside, no matter how you look at her movements, she doesn't look like a normal person!
"For some reason, she lost all her memories, which is why she behaved so strangely. â
I saw through the doubts in her mind at a glance and explained.
"Oh!"
The girl swam a little closer, looked at the Imaizumi shadow wolf, and couldn't help but feel a little pity for the other party.
"Huh?"
Probably feeling her gaze, Imaizumi Shadow Wolf also tilted his head and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
The two of them stared at each other for a long time.
"Whew!"
Imaizumi Shadow Wolf's body shrank back, and his limbs kicked the ground violently, and he pounced on Wakaru Hime......
