Chapter 38: The White Deer Saves People

When Li Yuan left the cemetery, the sky had already begun to turn white.

The sun is halfway out, and it is domineering to drive the moon away.

One night, the old Taoist priest had been meditating and cultivating under the tree, and when he heard the movement, he opened his eyes.

Seeing that it was Li Yuan coming back, the old Taoist priest had a smile on his face.

"Xiao Hei, hard work."

Laborious?

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, nodded his head, and looked like I was working so hard.

The old Taoist priest didn't ask about the things in the tomb, he stood up directly, patted his robe, and said loudly: "It's not early, let's go back!" ”

"Meow!"

Li Yuan answered, stepped forward and walked to the old Taoist's side.

Different from when he came, on the way back, the old Taoist priest was not in a hurry, took Li Yuan, walked slowly, and walked leisurely in the mountains and forests.

When the master and apprentice climbed over the top of the mountain, they also stopped to enjoy the view of the rising sun.

Walking down from the top of the mountain, Li Yuan followed behind the old Taoist priest, looking around, looking at the surrounding scenery.

After walking for a while, he looked at Li Yuan in the southeast direction, and suddenly stopped.

On the cliff in the distance, there is a man pulling vines, climbing carefully, and I don't know what he is doing?

After a closer look, Li Yuan, who had excellent eyesight, saw that the man was carrying a small bamboo basket on his waist, and there were blades of grass stretched out of the basket, fluttering in the wind.

Without thinking too much, Li Yuan guessed that the man should be collecting medicine.

Just as Li Yuan was concentrating on observation, the stones under the man's feet loosened and slid down, his body lost his balance, and he grabbed the vine with both hands and hung it in the air.

Seeing this scene, Li Yuan retracted his gaze, looked ahead, and found that the old Taoist priest had already walked to the front.

Jumping forward, Li Yuan hurriedly chased after him.

"Meow!"

Screaming, Li Yuan ran to the feet of the old Taoist priest and grabbed the Taoist robe.

Hearing the sound and feeling the movement, the old Taoist priest stopped, turned around and looked down at Li Yuan in confusion.

"What's wrong with Blackie?"

Li Yuan didn't talk nonsense, and directly raised his claws and stretched out in the direction of the cliff.

Following Li Yuan's instructions, the old Taoist priest looked over and also found the medicine picker hanging on the cliff.

The herb picker grabbed the vine and swayed in the air, crumbling and in a dangerous situation.

The old Taoist priest did not dare to delay, stepped on the ground, leaped up, and rushed towards the direction of the cliff, ready to save people.

At the bottom of the cliff, a white deer also found the medicine picker in danger, jumping up dexterously, like an elf, on the steep cliff, as if walking on the ground.

The old Taoist priest had just arrived directly opposite the cliff, and the white deer had already rescued the herb picker, carried him on his back, and came to the flat ground above the cliff.

Putting the herb picker down, Bailu saw the old Taoist priest and Li Yuan directly opposite, didn't stop, turned around and ran into the mountain forest.

Seeing that the herb picker was saved, Bailu left, and the old Taoist priest and Li Yuan did not stay for too long, and turned to leave.

When the master and apprentice returned to the Taoist temple, the sun had fully risen, and Lin Yingying was practicing boxing in the front yard.

After saying hello to Lin Yingying, the old Taoist priest took Li Yuan back to the backyard.

"Xiao Hei, you've worked hard all night, go back to the house and sleep for a while!" The old Taoist priest cared about his apprentice, so he said.

Li Yuan, who had slept all night, hurriedly shook his head, signaling that he was not sleepy.

"Then you can rest as you like!"

Seeing Li Yuan shaking his head, the old Taoist priest didn't say much, and after saying a word, he went to the kitchen to prepare today's breakfast.

......

In the mountains and forests, because of shyness, the red fox near the Taoist temple for many days was eating freshly picked fruits near his residence.

Standing like a human, holding the wild fruit in both paws, the red fox had a heart, and after eating a few bites, he stopped and stared blankly at the fruit.

Bailu, who rescued people in the morning, came to find the red fox and happened to see this scene.

"Sister Yue'er!"

Thinking about things in his heart, the red fox didn't hear it, and looked at the wild fruit with blank eyes.

Without getting a response, Bailu walked up to the red fox and touched it gently.

"Sister!"

"Ahh

The red fox was startled, and the wild fruit in its claws also fell to the ground.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Bailu looked at the red fox who was behaving a little strangely and asked curiously.

"Xiaobai, it's you!" Seeing that it was Bailu, the red fox breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister, what were you thinking just now? I call you, and you ignore me. Bailu asked.

The tips of the red fox's ears were red, and he shook his head inexplicably.

"Sister?" Bailu felt even more strange.

Throwing the annoying black cat out of his head, the red fox calmed down and said calmly, "I'm fine!" Just a little distracted. ”

Bailu didn't believe it, his head stretched forward, leaned over to the red fox's face, and looked at it suspiciously.

"Xiaobai!"

Red Fox Jiao shouted, stretched out her paws, and pushed the white deer away.

"Sister, you have something to hide from me!" With a glint of wisdom in his eyes, Bailu said affirmatively.

"I didn't! My sister just hasn't woken up yet, and she's a little sleepy. The red fox made an excuse and defended himself.

Bailu was suspicious, looked at the red fox suspiciously, but did not continue to ask.

"Xiaobai, do you have anything to do with me?" The red fox took the initiative to change the subject.

"I saved a medicine picker in the morning, he gave me delicious food, and I asked my sister to eat with me." Bailu said excitedly.

"Xiaobai, are you going down the mountain with someone again?"

The red fox knew that Bailu often rescued people in the mountains, and in the past, he would kindly send them to the village at the foot of the mountain.

But the red fox was worried that there would be bad deeds and took the opportunity to hurt Xiaobai, so he didn't allow Bailu to go down the mountain casually.

Bailu, who was warned by the red fox, after saving people, will no longer send people down the mountain unless necessary.

Bailu shook his head and said loudly: "I didn't, after saving people, I left." ”

"And how did he bring you food?" Red Fox asked.

"The man knew me, and he came up with food on his back." Xiaobai explained.

After explaining, Bailu urged again: "Oops! Sister Yue'er! Don't ask so much, come with me! Go play with me! ”

Invited by Bailu again, the red fox suddenly had a flash of inspiration and came up with a good reason to meet the black cat.

Since the last time he fled shyly, the shy red fox has been embarrassed to look for the black cat again.

Invited by Bailu today, Red Fox thought of an excellent excuse.

Looking at the urging white deer, the red fox laughed.

"Xiaobai, do you want to meet new friends?"

"What new friends?" Bailu asked curiously.

"In the Taoist temple halfway up the mountain, there is a black cat with a spiritual mind, do you want to know it?"

Xiao Bai is really kind, likes to be lively, prefers to make friends, and knows the character of Bailu very well, so he asked.

"Black cat?"

To the surprise of the red fox, Bailu did not agree directly, but pondered.

Just when the red fox was a little worried, Bailu's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Sister, I saw the black cat you said in the morning." ”

As soon as Bailu's words came out, the red fox became a little nervous.

"How did you see that?"

"It was in the morning when I was saving people that I saw the old Taoist priest on the opposite side of the cliff, and there was a black cat standing next to him. You told me to avoid that old Taoist priest, but I took one look and ran away. ”

After listening to Bailu's words, the red fox secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
