Xu Ming and Tang Jinling left on the first morning of spring, when the first sprouts had just sprouted from the old trees at the entrance of the village.

Xu Ming packed up the things at home, packed his bags, and hugged Ling'er to say goodbye to the old village chief. The village chief didn't do much to keep it, and gave Xu Ming a map out of the mountain when he left. Xu Ming took Tang Jinling to Lao Xu's grave and kowtowed three times. Tang Jinling also learned, lying in front of Lao Xu's grave and nodding three times. Xu Ming looked at her, feeling a little funny but couldn't laugh, he suddenly felt warm in his heart, and his whole body was full of strength.

Xu Ming is "a man in two lives", and he has not yet entered the mountain to experience the feeling of going out of the mountain first. He walked along a small river not far from the village towards the mountain, Ling'er lazily lying on his shoulder. Overhead is the clear sky of early spring, the fish and shrimp that have just woken up in the river water on the side are shuttling and playing among the fine stones, the old trees that have experienced the cold winter are beginning to draw new shoots, the light and shadow are circulating in the mountains and forests, accompanied by the chirping of insects and birds, the fragrance of spring is becoming more and more intense and warm.

"I didn't expect the mountains to be quite beautiful. Xu Ming walked slowly, admiring the scenery of the mountains, and this was the first time he had stepped out of the village since he came to this world. There is a kind of novelty and excitement of leaving the novice village and preparing to go out to explore the rivers and lakes.

"This world sounds like you can cultivate immortals, which means that there is a high probability that you can become a human. Xu Ming patted Ling'er's head on the shoulder. She reluctantly "meowed" twice, expressing her dissatisfaction with Xu Ming waking her up beauty sleep. "I can go out and find a sect or something like in the novel, cultivate well, and when I become an immortal with high mana, I should be able to turn you into a human. Xu Ming thought about it and laughed, "Maybe I can decide what you have become when the time comes, hehehe......" "Meow!" Xu Ming touched the face of the old wound that had not healed and added a new wound: "Just kidding, are you there." ”

The novelty of the outside world quickly passed, and Xu Ming looked at the map and slowed down, falling into deep thought. This map was drawn by the village chief's father when he went out of the mountain to look for medicine for his mother, when the village chief was still a little hairy child wearing open crotch pants, and the village chief's father was busy returning to the mountain and did not carefully observe the route, which caused Xu Ming to see none of the landmarks on this map along the way. "It's difficult, what is this hundred-foot tall tree, there are several tall trees along the way, okay?" Xu Ming looked at the slightly rudimentary map, and looked up again. It was already noon, the sun hung high in the sky, and the whole mountain forest was bright and clear. After studying for a long time, they finally determined one fact - they were lost.

It is a terrible thing to get lost in the mountains, "in the previous life" Xu Ming has seen countless couples who have been lost in the mountains and then disappeared or died in accidents, and he suddenly felt that they would create a precedent for traversers to get lost and die in the mountains.

Xu Ming looked at the path behind him that he stepped on a foot-high grass: "Is it possible to go back to the village the same way?" Then he shook his head again, dispelling his thoughts: the head can be broken and the blood can be shed, and the face cannot be lost.

"Meow!" Ling'er suddenly jumped down, stood in front of Xu Ming and shouted, then continued along the river, signaling Xu Ming to follow her. "Do you know the road?" Xu Ming took the map and hurriedly followed her footsteps, "But the map clearly says that you can't go all the way along the river." ”

After walking for a while, they came to a clear spring. "Is there still a spring here?" Xu Ming looked at Tang Jinling in surprise, "Could it be that this is really a novice village, this is your birthplace?" Ling'er glanced at him helplessly.

"Okay, let's rest here today, and continue to study the way out of the mountain tomorrow. Xu Ming squatted by the spring and picked up a handful of spring water: "It's quite sweet." Why don't I wash my feet again?"

Xu Ming still didn't dare to wash his feet with mountain spring water under Tang Jinling's burning gaze, he went to the forest to pick up some firewood to make a fire.

The night in early spring was still a little cool, Xu Ming sat next to the fire with Tang Jinling in his arms and watched the stars. The moon is in the sky, and the galaxy is brilliant. Xu Ming has fantasized countless times about sitting by the bonfire and watching the stars with the girl he likes, but now although there was a little accident and the girl became a cat, it can be regarded as the fulfillment of one of his dreams.

"I didn't expect to look at the stars with you in my arms for the first time. Xu Ming looked at the night sky and slowly spoke, "I thought it would be on the lover's slope at school, on a night after I mustered up the courage to be ready to confess to you." ”

Tang Jinling, who was in his arms, raised his head, looked at his cute and handsome face, which was unexpectedly cute and handsome, and called softly: "Meow." "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have walked out of that village. Xu Ming lay down on the grass with Tang Jinling in his arms, and she lay on his chest.

"I'm a very tolerant person, just get by. The life in that mountain village, I have to say, is quite suitable for people like me who don't have much pursuit. But you are different, the Tang Jinling I know has always been a proud and beautiful girl who does not admit defeat. You should be sad to come into this world and become a cat. Xu Ming held her up in the air. She looked him in the eye condescendingly. The tenderness of spring waves almost welled up in his eyes. "When I knew that this world was a world where you could cultivate immortals and have immortals, I had already made a decision, I would definitely make you human!" Xu Ming stared at Tang Jinling's beautiful blue eyes and said firmly: "Trust me, I will definitely make you human!" "Meow!" she nodded.

The starry sky overhead is a magnificent purple color, and a silver-white galaxy runs through it, and the stars are bright. Smoke rose from the fire and rose very high in the windless and cloudless night sky.

"Good morning, Ling'er. When Tang Jinling woke up, Xu Ming had already packed up and was ready to go. After searching the map for a long time, they finally found the closest tree to the description, and found a path that most resembled it. The road is narrow and covered with weeds, and it seems that no one has walked on this road for many years. Xu Ming had no other choice, so he took this road head-on.

The road was winding and winding, inexplicably turning suddenly, and there was no fork in the road, Xu Ming always felt as if he was walking on something like a rune drawn with a single stroke. At the end of the road was a cave, the Black Brown Winterland, where nothing could be seen from the outside. Xu Ming swallowed a mouthful of saliva, hugged Ling'er into his arms, tightened the package on his back, and carefully touched it inside.

The cave was very small, and the road inside was also very narrow, and Xu Ming had to turn sideways to barely move forward. For some reason, Xu Ming always had a sense of déjà vu. It wasn't until he walked to the end of the road and saw the light at the end that he finally thought about what that familiar feeling was. "Isn't this the Peach Blossom Spring!" Xu Ming whispered to Tang Jinling, "Do you think that after a while, we will see a group of 'yellow haired hair's hair drooping and happy." Tang Jinling was also shocked by the scene in front of him, and he didn't dare to breathe in Xu Ming's arms.

Xu Ming took a deep breath and continued to walk forward, the dazzling light gradually swallowing him.

There was no "strange traffic", and there was no "smell of chickens and dogs", only a thatched hut, in front of which was a woman in red and a man in a civil robe, whose ears were still in her hands.

They didn't seem surprised by Xu Ming's arrival, and the woman still tugged at the man's ear: "Say, tall and strong, why did you remember the old lady after so many years, did you fall in love with which little fairy in Yaochi forgot the old lady!" The man held the wrist of her hand holding his ear, and begged for mercy: "Where can I be, auntie, I have worked hard all these years, and it was not easy to change from a military attache to a civilian position, and I became a petty official, and I just got the official uniform and came to report to you, please spare me." Besides, there are still mortals watching here, how bad. ”

"Besides!, didn't you say that mortals can't come in here?" the woman twisted his ears fiercely, "Lie to me again!" "They, they may be the descendants of Xiaoxi, who will keep your spirit." Besides, they won't be able to see us when they come in!" the man screamed, grinning in pain. "Hehe, they can't see it. The girl smiled slyly and reached out to pick up his other ear. "Wrong, wrong, Ke'er, I'm wrong. ”

"Ahem, two, what, actually, I can see it. Xu Ming looked at the two eyes in front of him and gradually became serious, and the alarm bell sounded in his heart, and then he hurriedly said: "No, no, I didn't see anything just now." ”
