The Urban Legends of Monsters: My Forest


Foreword: Because the text of the urban fairytale can't be updated, I wrote some rumored stories. In this story, Linlin is the child of a mountain ghost. Everyone should regard her as a child of childhood :)

Zhao Fei shook his head and put down the telescope. Anyway, what he saw through the lens was exactly the same as what he saw with his eyes. It was all a jungle that could not be seen on one side. While sighing, he couldn't help but admire himself a little: How did he come in in such a vast Lin Hai?

Zhao Fei is sitting on a hill, not far behind is the tent he hastily erected last night. In front of the tent is a pile of unextinguished bonfires, but they are not used for cooking. Kettle, or compressed biscuits for breakfast.

The morning mountain forest produces a layer of mist, if there is nothing, it only floats on the top of the forest incomparably clean, making the trees look more green, and making the birdsong in the forest sound like they are coming from a dream world the same. "Well, the beauty..." Zhao Fei sighed, picked a few pine needles from a small pine tree, threw them into the teapot, and took a sip with satisfaction.

Zhao Fei's luggage not only includes tents and backpacks, but also a damp proof in the tent. He has a flashlight, a compass, a water bottle, a camera, a Swiss army knife and ropes on his body. He is wearing hiking clothes and high-waisted leather boots. With a luminous watch on hand... from the outside it looks like a typical and well-equipped mountain climber. It is true that Zhao Fei spent a lot of money on equipment in order to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, and came to the mountains to cultivate himself and seek inspiration, but the problem now is that he is lost.

"Obviously there is a compass and a map, why can't I go out? Am I a road idiot like Yang Weili? It's impossible..." Zhao Fei was lying on the ground and muttering to himself, because he couldn't cook, So all the food he brought was compressed biscuits, which saved his life. Although he had been wandering in the mountains for two days, the food could last at least three or five days.

After the panic at the beginning of thinking that he was killed (not that he thought he was "killed"), Zhao Fei has completely calmed down now, he analyzed his current situation soberly, and rationally formulated a plan for himself. Self-help plan, and calmly start implementing it. First, turn off the mobile phone where there is no signal, in case you call for help in the future, then choose a route according to the map, then use the compass to locate, and keep walking.

"If you look at the map, if you climb over this hill, there will be a small village across the river... But why can't I see where the river is?" Zhao Fei muttered while scanning with his binoculars, "Maybe it's a small village. Let's go over this hill and go over another hill, anyway, I've been heading north." He misinterpreted the map at will, packed his luggage with confidence, and walked straight down towards the goal.

"There's no way out again!" Zhao Fei stomped his feet. He turned around this hillside for two or three hours, and there were steep slopes that could not go down either side, which made him have to start thinking about bypassing this hillside from the woods. Mountain top, but that would take a lot of time to walk, right? After Zhao Fei turned around the foot of the mountain, the forest became denser and denser, and there were fewer and fewer small trees and shrubs around him. Only the tall and towering trees remained. The fallen leaves that have accumulated over the years are soft when stepped on, and fungi are still growing on the roots of the trees.

"I don't know if I can eat it?" Zhao Fei, who had eaten compressed biscuits for several days, licked his lips at these colorful mushrooms, but even if they were not poisonous, Zhao Fei would not cook them unless he dared to eat them raw. of. Along the way, there are wild fruits and mountain vegetables, there are fish in the creek, there are bird eggs on the trees, and there are wild animals in the forest, but Zhao Fei still faces the situation of starving to death after eating compressed biscuits. The wild survivability of the guy who goes hiking in the mountains is equal to zero. "You can find the village without waiting for the food to finish, no problem." Although Zhao Fei lost his way again in the process of getting lost, he was still confident, but until the sunset went down again, he was still wandering in that forest. .

"Catch the camp, leave tomorrow." Zhao Fei threw his luggage on the ground and began to prepare for the night.

Originally, Zhao Fei only saw the clerk demonstrate once when he bought the tent, and then carried the tent up the mountain. After a few days of practical exercises, he made a little progress, but it took at least five ten minutes.

"I like someone to pursue what I want

I don't care how crazy people laugh at me

I can't let go without worrying

No pain can't be forgotten

Only by opening up can we overcome the vicissitudes of life

I like to dream

Because the dream is very happy

Satisfy the mind and forget the tiredness

Instead of complaining all day long

It's better to concentrate on the face

Only with a wide embrace can you fall asleep with a smile

The magnanimous moonlight starlight..."

He first picked up the branches and set it on fire, then sang songs and slowly "fought" with the tent. By the time he could drink boiled water and eat biscuits to rest, it was past eight o'clock in the evening. "This is the south, the village is here..." Zhao Fei began to study the map again by the firelight, "If I am here now, then go here - the question is, am I 'here' now? If I'm not 'here', then this is..." He muttered to himself, mumbled for a long time, and finally rolled up the map and said with determination, "It's just right to keep moving forward anyway!" Because he didn't hurry up this afternoon, Zhao Fei was not tired. He threw branches into the fire, took out a notebook, and wrote while thinking.

"... Xuan Jun looked back and saw that his companions were still under the mountainside. The Luoluo bird perched between the branches gave him a sharp cry. Xuan Jun drew his sword and pointed at those who would attack at any time. The monster..."

"No."

Zhao Fei tore the page from the book, tore it up, and threw it into the fire.

"This is not what I want to write! Damn it, why can't I think of anything in my head!" He tapped his head a few times, but this method obviously didn't make his inspiration appear, so he simply dropped the pen Lie down on the ground and look up at the gap in the canopy, where there are a few stars.

Zhao Fei has always believed that he is a person who cannot learn too much about the world and cannot get used to the intrigues in society. The reason why he is a civil servant in a government agency and faces intricate interpersonal relationships every day has not been assimilated or accepted. The reason for the neurasthenia is that he never gave up his childhood dream - writing.

Zhao Fei is not a poet, nor is he a so-called literary youth, and he is not writing works of profound social significance or critical realistic significance. What he writes is fantasy novels that are only published on the Internet. The world, the dragon knights, the elves and the demon kings, the wild things. Zhao Fei can let his protagonists go to heaven and earth in the article, or they can conquer all worldliness. These fantasies and the joy of writing have kept him from becoming someone he doesn't like in his circumstances.

Zhao Fei just finished a story on the Internet that he had written for more than two years. This story has been well received by many netizens. Just after the serialization ended, some people strongly demanded to write a sequel. Zhao Fei said these words of praise. Being modest, he was very proud of himself, but one day, a netizen who was not familiar with him posted a comment that surprised him under his article.

At the beginning of the comment, the netizen carefully analyzed and commented on the plot of each part of the article, and pointed out Zhao Fei's weaknesses in the story structure and several loopholes that Zhao Fei himself did not notice. He gave this story a relatively high overall rating, but at the end he turned his head around and said, "Zibuyu (Zhao Fei's screen name), although you can feel that you are writing very seriously, you also have good writing and ideas. , but I can only give your "Dream of the Dawn" 60 points. Do you know why I only give this point? Because when I open the article and see that there are dragons, elves, demons, angels in it, this is what I can do The highest score given. It is another article in a Western-style background. When I am facing some fantasy web articles that I deeply love, I often have this sigh. In ancient times, we have "Fengshen", "Journey to the West", when will we be able to see our own, oriental fantasy..."

The oriental fantasy, Zhao Fei had never thought about all this before. He always thought that fantasy was flying dragon, elves, "The Lord of the Rings", "Dragon Spear" and "Dark Elf".

I'm going to try it out.

Zhao Fei read this post, and after thinking about it for a long time, he gave up the plan to write a sequel and a biography for "Dream of Dawn", and began to conceive a story based on "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", which he liked since childhood. The ancient notebook novels are very familiar with traditional Chinese myths and stories, so I confidently began to write this story that happened in China's mythic era, and within a few days, I had a score of tens of thousands of words. But when he calmed down and carefully read what he had written, he sat on the computer for a long time, and finally pressed delete.

This is not an oriental fantasy, this is just a monster with a Chinese name, a Chinese background, and a Western fantasy content...

Zhao Fei was depressed about this for a long time. For the first time, he spent a lot of time like this but couldn't write a story that satisfied him.

Finally, tempted by an ad for mountaineering gear, he ran into the mountains for inspiration.

"Damn, stop writing! I'm going to jump out of the red dust, floating in the world, Mei's wife Hezi, laughing proudly in the mountains..." Zhao Fei shouted and screamed in one breath, waving his fists to the sky, startled Several birds chirped in the dark.

"Crack."

There was a slight sound of branches breaking from one side of the woods, but it was very harsh at night.

"Beast?"

Zhao Fei sat up and vaguely saw a moving shadow in the shadow of the tree over there.

"When things don't go well, they don't go well, I get lost, I can't write anything, the deer abandons me, and even the beasts make trouble!" Zhao Fei took out a burning branch from the fire and hugged and abandoned himself towards the other side. "Come out, I'm Tarzan, the invincible killer, the undefeated East..."

A small figure came out from behind the tree and looked at him quietly.

"People?" Zhao Fei was stunned.

In front of her was a little girl, only eight or nine years old at most. She was thin and tanned, but her big eyes were black and white, and she looked at Zhao Fei flexibly. The girl has two pigtails and a blue jacket with white flowers on a blue background. She is typical of rural girls in this area, but for some reason, she has no shoes on her feet and is stepping on the ground with her bare feet on the ground.

"Ah!" Zhao Fei suddenly remembered his own situation, and also the situation of this little girl. He ran over and asked, "Little sister, are you lost? Are there any adults with you?"

The little girl looked up at him and said nothing.

"Are you walking in the mountains by yourself? You must be very scared? Did you come here when you saw the fire here? Don't worry, you don't have to be afraid of anything when you have your brother!" Zhao Fei patted his chest to assure, completely ignoring himself The same is true of the victims.

The little girl turned her head sideways, still didn't speak, and looked at Zhao Fei with very strange eyes.

"What are you looking at?" Zhao Fei followed her gaze and looked at his right hand. "Wow... it's so hot!" The burning branch had burned his fingers, and he threw the branch out with a strange cry.

"Giggle." Seeing how he jumped up with his fingers covered, the little girl burst out laughing.

"That's great, I thought you were stunned, but you still laughed, so I'm relieved." Zhao Fei squatted down and touched her head, "Come on, brother, treat you to biscuits, and then I'll **** you home. Are you okay?" He was about to lead the little girl to the tent, when he suddenly remembered something, and ran into the grass to find the branch he had just thrown away. After finding it, he stepped on it and buried it in the soil while turning back to the little girl. Explanation: "Did you know that you can't just leave fire in the mountains. If you're not careful, there will be a big fire. A big mountain fire will burn down a lot of woods at once - you know?" It is so touching to never forget the flowers of educating the future. While praising himself in his heart, Zhao Fei returned to the tent, where the little girl had already sat down by herself.

"You drink some water, come here, and eat a biscuit." Zhao Fei gave her the only food he had.

The little girl took a sip from the kettle and shook her head when she saw the compressed biscuit.

"This is a compressed biscuit. It's delicious...it's not delicious, but it's full. You must be hungry, right?"

The little girl pushed his hand away and suddenly stood up and ran into the woods. "Hey, what are you doing? Don't run around." Zhao Fei hurriedly chased after him, but the little girl didn't go far. She bent down under a tree and wrapped a dozen fresh and plump mushrooms in her clothes after a while. walked back.

"It looks delicious, but if it's poisonous, it will kill you." Zhao Fei wanted to drool looking at these mushrooms, but he didn't dare to eat them.

The little girl picked up a branch, removed the forks, skewered the mushrooms one by one, and grilled them neatly on the fire.

"Are you sure you can eat it?" Smelling the fragrance, Zhao Fei's reason began to compromise his stomach.

When the little girl handed him a bunch of them, Zhao Fei bit it without thinking. Anyway, this child is a child in the mountains, and the people in the mountains always know what poisonous mushrooms are. Zhao Fei found such a reason, Eat with confidence.

"You're wearing too little, it's very cold in the mountains at night, come and put on my coat, I'll give you my tent, you sleep in it, I'll keep watch for you, and I'll take you to find you tomorrow morning My home—you lost your shoes, and you can’t wear mine, but no problem, I’ll carry you away! So leave everything to me, don’t worry, there’s no problem.” Zhao Fei ate the food provided by the little girl It was only later that I remembered that I should play the role of protector and caregiver here. I corrected it immediately and began to take care of the little girl.

The little girl took his clothes and curiously touched the embroidered English letters on it, but didn't wear them.

"By the way, my name is Zhao Fei, you can call me Big Brother Zhao, what's your name?" Zhao Fei introduced himself to the little girl.

The little girl looked at him and smiled.

Zhao Fei suddenly thought that the child hadn't said a word since we met. Could it be that she... "Little sister, what's your name?" Zhao Fei looked at the child tenderly.

The little girl still just smiled.

It turns out that she really... Zhao Fei sighed secretly, but he smiled at the little girl as gently as possible, for fear of hurting her. Zhao Fei wrote the word "Zhao Fei" on the ground with a branch and asked, "Can you write?"

The little girl was also scratching on the ground with a branch, but she was not writing. When Zhao Fei looked at it, she had already drawn a figure with the branch. With a few strokes, she vividly drew a panicked person. It looks like the branch in the hand is thrown outward, and also draws a few outward curves on the branch, indicating that it is on fire and smoking.

Zhao Fei frowned: "This is..." He raised his face and looked at the little girl pretending to be angry, but recalling his embarrassment just now, he couldn't help laughing. The little girl dropped the branch and laughed happily.

"Where is your home?" Zhao Fei found that although the girl could not speak, she could understand, so he asked her for the direction of the village. As soon as the sun rises, he will send her home as soon as possible, lest her family be worried.

The little girl hugged her knees and smiled, put branches into the fire, and didn't answer.

She is also lost. Of course she doesn't know which direction her home is in, Zhao Fei thought, she still has to rely on the map. When he took out the map to study, the little girl also stood behind him and looked.

"This is the map. From above, you can see that there is a village nearby, but unfortunately I don't know if it is your village," Zhao Fei explained while looking at it. He picked up the compass to identify it, and pointed to the direction : "If this side is in the south, the village is in the west, this side..."

The little girl suddenly grabbed his arm and pushed it in another direction.

"...Little sister, do you know which side is the west?"

The little girl immediately points west.

"Then we'll keep going this way tomorrow, and the village is at most one hill across." Zhao Fei said affirmatively.

The little girl shook her head vigorously.

Zhao Fei looked at her: "...do you know where the village is?"

The little girl nodded, and immediately stood up and ran into the woods. Seeing that Zhao Fei hadn't followed, she stopped and waited for him.

"You want to take me to the village?" Zhao Fei asked carefully.

The little girl nodded vigorously.

"But it's eleven o'clock now," Zhao Fei looked at his watch, "I know you really want to go home, but can we leave early tomorrow? It's dangerous in the mountains at night, there are tigers, bears, wolves... ..." Zhao Fei imitated these beasts to frighten her.

Instead, the little girl ran a few steps into the woods, still waiting for him.

"Okay, okay, but at least wait for me to pack the tent and light a torch..." Zhao Fei muttered and started to pack the tent.

Thirty minutes later, Zhao Fei was on the road led by the little girl. He had a torch in his hand (he couldn't make a torch, so he tied a bunch of branches like a broom and set it on fire, and held it in his hand), But it always misses the little girl in front of her. Because she had no shoes, Zhao Fei originally wanted to carry her away, but who knew that she was still fast and jumping on the ground with bare feet, always leaving Zhao Fei behind.

In the woods in the dark night, only by the light of a fire, Zhao Fei couldn't tell the direction at all. He felt that the trees on both sides of the road were all very similar, and he couldn't even tell how far he had walked. The little girl is very familiar with the woods, and she doesn't even need lighting. She jumps over fallen tree trunks for a while, and walks around thorn bushes for a while, she is very comfortable.

As time passed, Zhao Fei vaguely recognized that they seemed to have crossed a mountain top, and then walked all the way to a higher place. At this time, the sky was already bright. Zhao Fei turned off the torch and sat down on the rock. Take a breath, look at the watch, at five o'clock in the morning, they have been walking in the mountains in the dark night for more than five hours.

"Aren't you tired? Come and drink some water." Zhao Fei gasped, still caring about others.

The little girl was still jumping up and down, her face didn't change, he circled around, threw a few fruits on Zhao Fei's lap, then squatted beside him and looked at him with his chin up.

"Children in the mountains have incredible physical strength." Zhao Fei praised. He now has backache and leg cramps, and even his eyes are numb. The intensity of walking on the mountain road at night (in fact, there is no road at all) is really unusual.

The little girl waited for him to sit for ten minutes, then jumped up and ran in front of him.

"Can you rest for a while..." Zhao Fei muttered, standing up reluctantly. He knew that he must be very embarrassed now, and he was not as good as a little girl, but he was really exhausted. It seemed that people living in the city were weak, and it was a waste of him to exercise so hard. There is also the nickname of a physical monster. When I came here, I couldn’t even compare with a little girl. I decided to strengthen my exercise after I went back. I ran 50 laps of 400 meters, 200 push-ups, and 200 supines every day. Double the number of sit-ups and 200 pull-ups.

A few early birds swept across the dew-soaked grass, grabbed a few fat insects, and scrambled for each other, and the morning in the forest came.

Zhao Fei washed his face in the spring water that emerged from a crevice in the rocks, and ate a few biscuits, but saw that the little girl brought back strawberries from somewhere and was eating them. A wild mouse stands on her palm and shares her strawberries. Zhao Fei shook his head, if a girl of the same age in the city would have screamed and jumped in fright when she saw a mouse. What are children of her age doing at this time? Most of them are still in their sweet dreams, waiting for their parents to wake them up for school. Zhao Fei has heard that if his ears can still hear, such a mute can usually be treated. He wants to talk to the parents of the child after he wants to see them, and maybe he can help.

The little girl stopped when he saw him slow down again, and waited for him while greeting the birds in the sky.

"Oh my God!" Zhao Feiyi looked up and saw where the little girl was standing and cried out in fright, "Dangerous! Come back! No, no, don't move, don't move, I'll save you."

There is a mountain stream in front, with steep mountain walls on both sides, and a river below. There used to be a suspension bridge between the mountain walls on both sides. I don’t know when the bridge has been broken, and only a rope is still connected to the two sides. Now that The little girl was standing on the rope, looking sideways at Zhao Fei shouting.

Zhao Fei looked at the rope that was swaying by the wind, and the child on it seemed to fall off at any time. Zhao Fei gritted his teeth and shouted, "Don't move, my brother will come to save you right away! "While dropping his luggage, he knelt down and grabbed the rope to climb over to save the person.

"Giggle..." Seeing Zhao Fei using both hands and feet, the little girl laughed happily.

"Don't laugh, the rope moves even more when you laugh, don't move! Don't move!"

Before Zhao Fei could finish speaking, the little girl ran back from the shaky rope with her arms open and looked at Zhao Fei curiously.

"You..." A gust of mountain wind blew, Zhao Fei hugged the rope tightly, watching the little girl as the rope swayed leisurely, there was no possibility of falling, "... You don't know how to do it lightly..."

The little girl stretched out her hand to him, laughing to pull him up, Zhao Fei grabbed the rope tightly and shook her head.

The little girl insisted on reaching out to him again.

"I'm not as good as you. If I stand up, I'll fall down, and then I'll fall on the river beach below, and die... You understand, the dead are covered in blood, and their brains will flow out, It's scary. You wait, I'll crawl back, let's take a detour." Zhao Fei explained to the little girl, and then slowly crawled back. Just now, he climbed out several meters in order to save people, but now he realizes how terrible it is to climb backwards.

It seems to be detouring, where can I go around? I don't know if this kid knows the other way.

When Zhao Fei put his luggage back on his back and began to look at the route, the little girl suddenly grabbed his hand and led him forward. "Ah..." Zhao Fei shouted unpreparedly, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he was already standing on the rope. There is a rope under his feet, and a mountain stream of dozens of meters below him. There are at least 20 meters in front, and the back... Yes, there is only one step behind, back, back... Zhao Fei thought so, but his legs were weak. Can't move at all.

The little girl pulled him and asked him why he didn't leave.

"Little sister, I can't walk past, I want to go back." Although Zhao Fei said so, he didn't dare to let go of her hand.

The little girl pointed her finger at the opposite side, motioning to move forward.

Just as a strong wind blew, the rope swayed violently. Zhao Fei felt that half of his body had been swayed into the air. He couldn't help closing his eyes. , and then fell to pieces on the beach.

"Giggle..." The little girl laughed when she saw his appearance, and stood on tiptoe to wipe his cold sweat with her hands.

"Did not fall."

Zhao Fei found that the rope was still under his feet and opened his eyes in disbelief.

The mountain wind was blowing wildly, and the rope was swaying back and forth in the wind, and the amplitude was getting bigger and bigger, but the two people standing on it had always stood firm, no matter how the wind blew or how the rope swayed, they Always standing on the rope, Zhao Fei had already made a 40-degree angle on the rope several times, but he still did not fall.

"Ha, this is..." Even if Zhao Fei is mentally retarded, he should have found out that something is wrong, not to mention that he is a fantasy novelist, "Is this some kind of magic?" He swayed with the wind The body asked in surprise.

The little girl tilted her head and blinked in confusion, as if she didn't understand what he was asking.

"Is there magic on this rope? Can it stick to it?" Zhao Fei asked as he released the little girl's hand, wanting to try the taste of howling in the wind.

"Ah..."

In the screams, the little girl grabbed Zhao Fei before he fell.

Zhao Fei used both hands and feet, and finally climbed up. He lowered his head and stared at the little girl - not because of the magic power of the rope, but because of this child, the magic power is that it looks unremarkable and is disabled. little girl. "You..." Zhao Fei licked his lips, "Are you a superpower?"

The little girl blinks, looking like she doesn't know what a "superpower" is.

"Special function?"

This time the little girl seemed to understand, she shook her head, she took Zhao Fei's hand and walked forward.

Walking on such a rope in the wind is almost like flying, right? Zhao Fei closed his eyes, stretched out his arms, and imagined that he was flying freely in the air, the wind was blowing by his ears, and the clouds were floating by his feet... When he stepped on the ground, he even felt a hint of regret in his heart. This rope is a little longer.

Seeing that Zhao Fei was still raising his head, closing his eyes, and stretching his arms, the little girl tugged at the front of his shirt and pointed forward with her fingers. In the gap between the trees, Zhao Fei, who had come to his senses, saw that at the foot of the mountain in the distance, neat fields were vaguely exposed, and it seemed that there were people working in the fields like small black spots. "Finally arrived at the village." He turned his head to look at the mountain forest opposite, the mountain stream and the broken suspension bridge, and the rope that he had just stepped over and was swaying in the wind, with a sudden feeling. "Little sister," Zhao Fei asked beside him, "is that the village you live in?"

The wind blew through the treetops, making a "whispering" sound, the surroundings were silent, and there was no one around Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei stood in the same place, and it took a long time to say: "It would be great to say that you are a fairy of the forest, wouldn't I have the subject of my writing..."

What the eye sees is often deceiving.

Zhao Fei once again recited this truth in his heart.

Although he could clearly see the farmer in the fields from the top of the hill just now, he turned around and rolled around on the hill where there was no road at all, rolling and climbing (he used the shortcut "rolling" when going down the mountain, although It wasn't voluntary), and it took four full hours to stumble into a small village built along the hillside.

"Saved..." Zhao Fei fell headfirst onto the bed he had rented from a farmer for fifty yuan, and immediately fell asleep.

He was lost in the mountains for six days, during which he didn't sleep well for the wild animals, he just kept walking during the day, and he took more than three times the normal route (he got the map wrong), Then I met that little girl, who walked on a roadless mountain road for five or six hours at night, consuming at least several times as much physical strength as during the day, and then crossed two hills to this village. Friends and relatives know, what kind of ugly and weird titles like "Physical Monster", "Strong Gorilla" and "Undead Train" will hit him on the head again, right? However, Zhao Fei, who is half asleep and half awake now, is thinking in his heart: It seems that my body is still too weak, even a little girl is not as good as someone else... go back to strengthen exercise... strengthen...

Amid the snoring, Zhao Fei began to have a dream of exercising hard while walking with the little **** the rope tied in the sky in the gust of wind. Suddenly the child let go, Zhao Fei was caught The gust of wind swept into the air, and then fell down again...

"Oh, obviously I've been walking on my feet, why is my neck hurting now..." Zhao Fei walked out of the low hut while shaking his neck. As soon as he entered the village yesterday, he went straight to the first family he saw and asked to rent a house, and then fell back and slept until dawn today, without taking a good look at the surrounding environment. Now that he walked out slowly, he found that the place he slept in yesterday was better than he imagined. The middle is still dilapidated: the thatched house is only supported by a few wooden stakes, the walls and the roof are not clear how many holes there are, and there are straw, bark and wood blocks everywhere under the bed in the house - it seems This is basically where people use to put firewood.

"Fifty yuan a night..." Zhao Fei kicked the door, but the house shook for a while, straw and dust fell from the roof, so frightened that he hurriedly dragged his luggage and escaped.

At a glance, I saw the woman who rented her a bed at a high price standing outside the bamboo fence in the yard. Zhao Fei walked over to her. No matter how hard the other party asked for money, he should politely say hello. , not to mention that he really doesn't want to eat compressed biscuits anymore, and wants to buy something from her (if it's not ridiculously expensive).

"What!"

Before she could get close, a scream came from the woman's mouth, causing Zhao Fei to stop.

"What! It's her again! This is the first time! You two can't even see such a little thing! Do you know how much you can sell it for! Three hundred yuan! It's gone all at once! You two Besides eating, what else can you do!"

A small mountain village with elegant scenery, a cottage thatched cottage, sitting on a stone mill in the shade of a tree, listening to the chirping of chickens and dogs and shrewish scolding, has a unique flavor. Zhao Fei listened with interest to the woman's curse from the incompetence of her two "sons" (one of whom was her husband) to the curse of all past, present, and future blood relatives on the opposite side who "stealed" her things, He spoke loudly, stroking his fingers and feet, and foaming from his mouth, until he was so hungry that he couldn't take it anymore, and seeing that the woman had no plans to stop at all, he had to go out with his luggage on his back. See if there is any place in this village that sells food.

This is a very small village with only thirty or so households. Of course, there are no restaurants or hotels here, only a small grocery store. After Zhao Fei found it, he didn't say a word, bought all the biscuits and snacks, and sat in front of the window and started eating.

The owner of the shop was an old man in his sixties with kind eyes and kind eyes. Seeing Zhao Fei was so anxious that he was afraid that he would choke, he quickly poured water for him, handed him a towel, and chatted with Zhao Fei. From the old man's words, Zhao Fei learned that this small village is called Qiujia Village. There are less than 200 residents in total. The village is surrounded by mountains and transportation is inconvenient. It is not enough to feed a village. People in the village used to hunt for a living, but now they mainly plant fruit trees. Almost all the mountains around the village have been developed into orchards, with dozens of fruit trees growing. Under the careful care of people, it seems that It is even more lush than the virgin forest behind. At this time, most of the villagers are either in the orchard or in the ground.

Zhao Fei looked around, stroked his protruding stomach, and sighed with satisfaction, "It's a nice place." He patted Zhao Fei on the shoulder and praised the discerning young man: "Yes, yes, we are the best place here."

A gust of wind blew, and the wind brought the woman's persistent scolding.

"Yes, yes." Zhao Fei nodded politely.

The old man's surname is Qiu (except for the daughter-in-law from outside the village), he has been living in the city for many years. After retirement and the death of his wife, the children who went abroad went abroad and went to other places. , He felt lonely, so he went back to his hometown to open a small grocery store - not to make money, just to do something, and he could also get in touch with the villagers more, and someone to accompany him to talk. Now that Zhao Fei himself came to the door, the old man's talk became more intense, and he continued to talk from the history of the village to his own experience.

"Why is that sister-in-law scolding all the time?" The old man finally finished talking about his second son, who was the general manager of a big company, and was about to start talking about his young daughter, who was studying in a prestigious school abroad, when the woman appeared at the right time. While walking and still scolding, Zhao Fei hurriedly took this opportunity to interrupt the old man's topic.

"Oh, you said the third aunt, his third aunt, where are you going?" The old man took the time to say hello to the woman and the two dejected men beside him, and then said to Zhao Fei, "Her husband is under the covers. The caught game was released to Linlin again, of course she was angry, those game sold to restaurants in the city are valuable."

Zhao Fei frowned. He had an indescribable aversion to preying on wild animals.

"Linlin is a real child. As soon as she sees someone with live game, she must go and let it go, making the whole village angry with her—the dead game can't be sold for a price. Qian, this child..." The old man was complaining, but his tone was more like an elder nagging about his disobedient children and grandchildren, and there was indescribable doting in it.

Zhao Fei said worriedly: "Do people in the village dislike her because she loves wild animals? Then..."

"Haha, I'm just saying that, why are you nervous. It's too late for everyone to pity the child who has no father or mother. Who will do anything to her? Look at the third aunt, she will only curse when she is so angry. Her husband and son are angry and won't make trouble for Linlin."

"An orphan with no father or mother... I thought it was your granddaughter." Just as Zhao Fei had a crush on this little girl who cherishes creatures, he learned that she was an orphan and couldn't help sighing...

"Alas, that child's life experience is a long story..."

The old man also sighed and began to talk about ancient times, but this time Zhao Fei listened carefully.

That night, Zhao Fei stayed at the old man Zheng's house. Because it would take six or seven hours to get to the nearest town from here, the old man suggested that he wait for someone from the village to go to the city before giving him a ride, and asked him enthusiastically. He lived in his own home for free, and he specially cut meat and chickens to entertain him. It could be seen that the old man was very lonely, so he was very enthusiastic about this young man who patiently listened to what he had to say for a day. Zhao Fei also has a lonely grandfather who lives in his hometown. He can understand this feeling very well, so he is not polite to the old man. He rolls up his sleeves to help fetch water, chop wood, and cook. increase.

After dinner, Zhao Fei sat with the old man chatting in the tree-lined yard. The gate of the yard was always open at will. The people of this village are simple and simple, and with a small population, they have some kinship with each other, so Rarely does anything like theft happen. The old man in the village came to visit with a small stool in his hand, and the children came to see outsiders. The old man Qiu’s house was very lively, and Zhao Fei could understand why the old man refused to live in the city.

The evening breeze was cool, Zhao Fei left everyone and turned around in the yard by himself.

The sky had already darkened. In the corner of the yard, there was a simple swing between two big trees. The old man Qiu specially built it for the children in the village, so that they could play while eating the snacks distributed by the old man. Now the swing was swaying, and a small figure stood on it, swaying high.

Zhao Fei was hazy, thinking that he was one of the group of children just now. He had a childish innocence and ran over to ask: "Hey, do you want to play with me? Who are we swinging higher than."

The child on the swing looked sideways at him.

"Wow!" Zhao Fei almost put his face on the other's face, and when he saw the child, he screamed: "You are that elf!"

The **** the swing has two pigtails, a flower gown, and big eyes. She is clearly the mysterious little girl he met in the mountains.

The villagers were all attracted by Zhao Fei's strange screams. Because they didn't know what happened, an old man was still copying a stool in his hand. After seeing the big and small, everyone was relieved: "Linlin, what are you doing? Are you scaring the guests?"

"Linlin...she is that Linlin..." Zhao Fei couldn't bear this change for a while - the adventure in his mind, the forest elf with superpowers, turned out to be the death of both parents since childhood as the villagers said the poor orphan.

Linlin didn't seem to remember him, so she jumped off the swing and ran around him to the villagers.

"Linlin, where have you been these days?"

"Look at you, you are always running around in the mountains!"

The villagers really cared about this child, but before they could finish speaking, they were suppressed by a high-decibel female voice: "Linlin, you dead child! You gave me that game again! Do you know that your brother wants to go to the school in the city and is waiting for the money, you disobedient dead child, if you come back to try on clothes, you will not come back, because I have worked so hard for you! If you run around in the mountains, what will you do? We don't know if the wolf ate it." She scolded and hugged Linlin to spank her buttocks, but she raised her hands so lightly that it was similar to slapping the dust on Linlin.

"Giggle giggle" Linlin kept laughing, not afraid at all, she just twisted her body to prevent her from hitting her, and took out something from her pocket and stuffed it in the woman's hand.

The woman spread out her hand, and on the palm of her hand was a small uncarved gemstone. When she found the faint brilliance, the woman was stunned for a while and then shouted: "You dead child, I don't want anything from you, say You have been a hundred times, you should keep your valuables for your own use, I told you to try on clothes, did you hear..."

Linlin slipped away while she was looking at the things in her hand.

"Linlin, this child is weird."

The villagers were all gone, and the old man Qiu said that he was not finished, but Zhao Fei was also curious, so he started talking about Linlin again.

During the day, the old man Qiu had already told Zhao Fei about Lin Lin's life experience. Zhao Fei knew that her father was from the village, and her mother was acquainted with her father when he was working outside. A few years ago, her father held three-year-old Lin Lin came back and said that Linlin's mother, whom no one in the village had ever seen, had passed away. He, a big man, couldn't take care of the child, so he left Linlin to a relative and left. Two years later, that relative passed away, and Linlin's father was never found again, so she became an orphan.

"But everyone likes Linlin so much, why don't you find a family to adopt her - I think that auntie is not bad!" It turned out that he was still obsessed with being "blackmailed", but he saw her attitude towards Linlin. After that, I felt that this woman was really good. )

"You must think that the villagers are bullying Linlin, no matter if she is right or not!" Elder Qiu looked at him angrily.

"No, no" Zhao Fei waved his hand quickly. In fact, he really thought so at first, thinking that the villagers were not good to this orphan girl, but after seeing the scene just now, he realized that he was thinking all wrong in front of him, here People are clearly full of love for Linlin.

"Oh, it's a long story..."

After listening to the old man's words, Zhao Fei knew that he was about to hear another long story soon - for example, since Linlin coaxed her to sleep when she was a child, he straightened his posture and was ready to start listening.

The relative who raised Linlin loved Linlin very much and took good care of her. The people here are kind and kind. They don't say anything about relatives or relatives, just for this childless child, they also love her in every possible way. . But the good times didn't last long. The relative died of a heart attack when Linlin was five years old. After her death, her son continued to take care of Linlin. He regarded Linlin as his biological daughter and favored her more than his mother, but a year later, when Linlin was six years old, this equivalent of Linlin's adoptive father The man also died in a car accident. At that time, his wife might have been stimulated by her husband's death, or maybe it was because she didn't want to raise Linlin anymore (after all, she came from a foreign country and had no blood relationship with the people in this village or Linlin). , In short, she was noisy at her husband's funeral, pointing to Linlin and saying that she was a broom star who not only killed her biological mother, but also killed her mother-in-law and husband.

The woman remarried with her child soon after, and when the villagers were rushing to adopt Linlin, they discovered that the six-year-old child actually understood what the woman said that day. Where to live, no one goes. If everyone wanted to forcibly take her away, she would yell, cry and make trouble. At first everyone thought she couldn't bear her home, so a few villagers took the initiative to live in her home to take care of her, but Linlin refused to marry anyone. People live under the same roof, and when someone comes, she runs outside. It wasn't until one time when everyone saw her crying and stepping on a broom, they realized that she believed the woman's words and regarded herself as a broom star who would kill her relatives. s reason.

The villagers had to look around for Linlin's biological father, hoping that he would come back to persuade Linlin, but that person seemed to have disappeared from the world and could not be found no matter what. The villagers tried various methods, such as retrieving the woman who caused the trouble and telling Linlin that she was not a broom. But Linlin decided that death was justified, but she didn't listen. The villagers had to let her live alone, and everyone did their best to care for her. Three years later, Linlin was nine years old, and she and the villagers were used to this kind of life.

"This child refuses to go to school, just runs around the mountains all day!" Elder Qiu said worriedly, "Everyone is afraid that something will happen to her one day. But it's strange, we also have wolves in this mountain. , wild dogs, there are also tigers and leopards. Adults are very careful when entering. Linlin is not afraid. Not only is he not afraid, he will come back safely every time. And he always brings things from the mountains to everyone: mushrooms, fungus, Straw mushrooms, fruits, and even minerals, you can see it. She gave her third aunt a gem just now. Last time her seventh sister got married, she also brought a large piece of crystal... This child is about to become a mountain monkey. now..."

Zhao Fei was lying on the bed, hearing the old man's snoring, thinking about that strange little girl, the mountain monkey? Zhao Fei thinks she is more like a fairy in the mountains...

After dawn, Zhao Fei was waiting at the entrance of the village early. Last night, a villager said that he was going to the city and was willing to take Zhao Fei with him, so Zhao Fei waited for him at the appointed place.

Zhao Fei had already fallen in love with this place and decided to come back to live for a while in the future, so he didn't feel particularly reluctant, but simply said "goodbye" to the old man Qiu, and the old man Qiu seemed to know what he was thinking. Like, he specifically pointed to the room where Zhao Fei slept last night and said, "I'll keep this room for you, you can stay here whenever you want."

"I will definitely come again." Being sent out by Elder Qiu, Zhao Fei stretched his arms and shouted to the surrounding mountains, scaring a goat that passed by him to run.

"Giggle" laughter came from behind.

Zhao Fei turned around and saw that the child named Linlin was standing behind him, laughing at his actions just now.

"It's you," Zhao Fei squatted down and looked at her face, "Why do you laugh every time you see my brother, is my brother so funny?"

Linlin nodded and looked at him with a smile.

"You little guy..." Zhao Fei flicked her head, suddenly thought of something, and took out his compass from his pocket, "Lin Lin, come here, brother, give you this. You are not often in the mountains. Can you play, this thing can point the direction, you see, this refers to the south..." He remembered that Linlin likes to travel in the mountains, and wanted to give her a compass, maybe this won't work for Linlin who is like a mountain elf, but Zhao Fei just wanted to do something for her.

Linlin took the compass out of curiosity. She made a few circles on the ground. Seeing that the compass had been guiding, she giggled again.

"Is it fun?" Zhao Fei asked with a smile, even if it was of no use to her, she could be used as a toy.

Linlin tilted her head and thought for a while, then took out something from her pocket and put it in Zhao Fei's hand.

Zhao Fei looked at his hand, and several plump and tender mushrooms lay in his palm as if they had just been picked, "You gave it to me."

Linlin nodded.

Maybe you won't be able to eat it when you bring it to the city, but Zhao Fei still wrapped it in paper and put it in his backpack carefully.

Linlin took a branch again and painted on the ground, specializing in Zhao Fei's appearance: the appearance of his hands being burned by the branch he was holding; the appearance of being tripped by the roots of the tree and gnawing at the mud; The appearance of the rope; the appearance of dancing and shouting... I draw and laugh.

"You kid, remember this, my brother is very handsome."

Linlin shook her head.

"Don't believe it? Look at my brother, he has sword-like eyebrows and tiger eyes, his face is like a crown of jade, and his temperament is extraordinary..."

"Giggle giggle" Linlin laughed so hard that she was about to roll on the ground.

"You don't know how to appreciate, but if you're ten years older, you'll understand."

Lin Lin is just laughing.

Although Linlin didn't speak, Zhao Fei had a good chat with her, and he already knew from the old man Qiu that Linlin was not dumb, she just stopped after the woman pointed at her as a broom Just spoke up. Zhao Fei knew that this was a kind of psychological disorder, and he hoped that one day after Linlin's heart knot was resolved, she could be like a normal person.

Linlin suddenly raised her head and looked behind Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei followed her gaze and saw several vehicles flying towards the village, picking up a trail of dust. Seeing that those vehicles did not mean to slow down at all, Zhao Fei picked up Linlin and jumped to the side of the road. Several luxury cars stopped at the entrance of the village, attracting a lot of onlookers from the village, and they were also discussing, what is such a luxury car doing in this remote small village?

The car door opened, and a dozen people walked out, most of them were middle-aged men in neat suits, but among them were two old men and a middle-aged man. The two old men were dry and thin, and Zhao Fei couldn't even estimate how old they were, so they lowered their heads and half-closed their eyes, standing behind the middle-aged man. And no matter who the middle-aged man was, he could tell that he was the leader of the group. He stood there looking at the villagers with majesty. When his eyes passed Zhao Fei and Linlin, he jumped. Zhao Fei never liked to be looked at with such condescending eyes, so he simply stared back, but Linlin took a step back and hid herself in Zhao Fei Behind him, he held Zhao Fei's clothes tightly.

"You, are you... Qiu He?" A villager who was watching the excitement suddenly pointed at the middle-aged man and called out suspiciously.

"Yeah, I'm back." The middle-aged man nodded and replied.

"Qiu He, have you made a fortune? You brought so many people and so many cars back." The villagers who had been watching from afar recognized their fellow villagers and gathered around them affectionately, while others turned around and greeted: "Linlin, come here, your father is back."

Lin Lin's father?

Zhao Fei frowned. The man with eyes on the top of his head was actually Linlin's father.

Linlin watched from behind Zhao Fei as the man opened his arms and walked over with a smile on his face. The villagers were all smiling and waiting to see the father and daughter recognizing each other. Some old ladies even touched tears. , but Zhao Fei clearly felt that Linlin's hands were shaking. "Linlin, you've grown up, come, let Dad see you! Dad misses you!" The middle-aged man stepped in front of Zhao Fei in a few steps.

Linlin suddenly flicked Zhao Fei's hand, turned and ran.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and immediately reached out to grab her, but Linlin's movements were very agile, and he rushed over with a low body, rushed into a small farmyard in a few steps, then nimbly jumped over the fence and disappeared into the house Afterwards, when her flower coat appeared again in people's field of vision, the person was already on the hillside behind the village and disappeared in the bushes after a while.

"Damn!" Qiu He burst out two words between his teeth, he grabbed Zhao Fei and roared: "Why don't you stop him!"

Zhao Fei grabbed his hand that grabbed his collar and smashed it hard, and replied unceremoniously, "You're sick!"—that is, who is Zhao Fei? What is the obligation to stop his daughter for him? What obligation is there to listen to his teachings? Maybe some people naturally regard what the powerful and rich say as imperial edicts, but Zhao Fei never likes this. And for this man, Zhao Fei didn't like it from the first sight. The middle-aged man seemed to be unable to bear the strength of Zhao Fei's fingers, so he screamed and stepped back again and again, with a very painful expression on his face. Zhao Fei looked at his hand and blinked in confusion: Is his strength not so strong? As a result, this Qiu He's strength is not like that of a strong man at all, his arms are limp, and he was panting after doing such a little movement just now.

"I'm sorry, I haven't seen my daughter for many years, so I'm in a hurry, don't take offense." Qiu He took Zhao Fei's loss, but his tone softened, and sighed, "Why did she see me when she saw me? Why don't you just run away? Is it because I have ignored her for so many years, she is angry with me and doesn't want to recognize me..." He looked downcast, and the villagers rushed around to comfort him. Qiu He suddenly turned from a domineering man to a sad father, but for some reason, Zhao Fei looked at him as if he was watching a show, but it was the look on his face when Lin Lin fled, not surprised or sad. Or self-blame, but anger... Qiu He and Zhao Fei were standing face to face at that time, Zhao Fei could see the expression on his face the most clearly, no matter what Zhao Fei thinks now, he thinks that Qiu He had a hideous look on his face at that time.

Zhao Fei stood outside the crowd, watching the villagers talking to Qiu He, and also seeing that the people Qiu He brought did not come forward, they all looked in the same direction consciously or unintentionally——Linlin disappeared just now of the woods.

"Mr. Zhao, about going to the city..." The villager who promised to bring Zhao Fei into the city yesterday walked over and said apologetically, "Look, our fellow has returned, so..."

Zhao Fei knew that for the warm and simple villagers here, it was a big deal for a fellow who had not seen him for many years to come back, not to mention that this fellow was returning home. In fact, Zhao Fei was also interested in this Qiu He and Linlin affair. When the other party said that he was in the middle of his plans, he stayed behind.

Qiu He allegedly went abroad to do business and made a fortune. This time he returned to his hometown not only to reunite with his daughter, but also to build roads and factories in the village to benefit the villagers. That night, he held a feast at the village chief's house and invited the whole village to participate, saying that he wanted to thank them for their long-term concern for Linlin.

Only two people in the whole village did not attend the banquet.

Zhao Fei had a simple dinner and chatted with Elder Qiu who was sitting in the yard enjoying the shade.

"I finally got out of that kind of communication, and I don't want to go in anymore..." Elder Qiu said with a smile when Zhao Fei asked him why he didn't go. After getting along for the past few days, Zhao Fei also felt that although the old man looked like a nagging ordinary elder, from his unintentional bearing and some of his words, Zhao Fei could imagine the old man He must have been a powerful man back then, so he also knew the mood of the old man very well.

"Pity this mountain. They came here to build a road and a factory. I don't know what it will look like... Of course it's good for the villagers to be rich, and pity the green mountains and rivers..." The old man said on the side. With a sigh, he ended the conversation and went into the room by himself.

Yes, building factories, building roads... It is indeed a matter of benefiting the village, but nature will be bad...

Zhao Fei jumped onto the old man's reclining chair, looked at the night sky with his hands on his back, shook his body with the sound of the wind blowing the treetops, and fell into contemplation.

The corner of his clothes was pulled, and Zhao Fei, who was already half asleep, opened his eyes at once, and without waiting to turn around, he blurted out, "Linlin."

The little girl stood behind him, turning her head sideways in surprise, as if wondering how he knew it was him.

Zhao Fei scratched his head. He didn't know why. At that moment, he felt that the person behind him was Linlin, so he blurted out. He squatted in front of Linlin and asked, "Linlin, where have you been? Have you seen your father?"

Linlin's face suddenly sank, and she shook her head vigorously.

"I know you don't like him, but he's your father." Zhao Fei didn't like Qiu He at all, but he must be Linlin's biological father. It is best for her to be able to live a normal life.

Linlin pulled Zhao Fei's sleeve with her hand and pointed out.

"You want me to go with you?"

Linlin nodded.

Zhao Fei didn't say a word, and immediately followed her.

When Zhao Feicai walked out of the old man Qiu's house, it was already midnight, and the whole village was silent. Linlin was very familiar with the village. Although she only relied on the starlight, she still walked very fast. Zhao Fei followed her around and turned around, and she was dizzy. When she stopped, Zhao Fei almost bumped into her. Linlin hid in the alley and put her finger to Zhao Fei's mouth. Zhao Fei secretly stretched out his head to take a look, then hurriedly shrank back. On the road ahead, two men were wandering, and judging from their outfits, it was those whom Qiu He had brought.

What are they doing? Even in the middle of the night, he wandered around the village (he forgot that he was also "walking around in the village in the middle of the night"), even to find his daughter, he couldn't justify it, and they looked like they were standing guard, there must be something to hide. people thing! Zhao Fei thought angrily, Linlin on one side lowered her head and thought for a while, then pulled him back and pulled him back. This time they circled half of the village and came to the other side, but there were also two people standing there.

Linlin gritted her teeth slightly, staring straight ahead.

"Linlin, do you have to go there?" Zhao Fei asked.

Linlin nodded solemnly.

"Look at me." Zhao Fei patted his chest. He had already sensed that something was wrong, but he did not hesitate to stand on Linlin's side.

Linlin's eyes widened, as if she didn't understand what he was going to do.

I saw Zhao Fei rushing out when the two people approached, and then only heard the sound of "pop" and "bang". When Linlin looked up, the two people had fallen to the ground. Not moving, Zhao Fei slapped his hands on the side.

"Don't be afraid, you're not dead." Zhao Fei comforted Linlin while dragging the two into the shadows, and at the same time he didn't forget to brag, "How is it, brother is very good?" Although he has never learned martial arts, he Since he was a child, he often fought with people because of his impulsive personality. After more than ten or twenty years, it was a piece of cake for him to fight three or five people (if he knew that these two people were all veteran special forces carefully selected by Qiu He, he probably would also Will stick out tongue like Linlin).

Lin Lin led Zhao Fei and stopped in front of a house. She pointed inward and looked at Zhao Fei begging.

"You want me in?"

Linlin nodded vigorously.

"But what am I doing in here? You're not with me?"

Linlin nodded first, then shook her head, nodded again, she didn't know how to express it, tears welling up in her eyes.

Zhao Fei put his hand on her shoulder and said, "Understood, you said that as long as I go in, I will know what to do, but you can't go with me, right?"

Linlin looked at him. Although she couldn't speak, her eyes were full of trust.

"Wait." After Zhao Fei finished speaking, he walked in, but then turned around and instructed, "Hide and wait, those two guys are not dead."

Fearing that the wooden door would make a noise, Zhao Fei jumped in from the wall and faced the three main rooms with the doors all open. Zhao Fei touched it carefully, his eyes slowly adjusting to the light in the room. There are a few pieces of furniture in the house, the arrangement is very simple, but it is scattered, like being robbed. "Someone has been here before..." A figure appeared in Zhao Fei's mind - Qiu He.

If Zhao Fei is not mistaken, this is Linlin's home. Many of the clothes scattered on the ground are worn by little girls like Linlin. Father? Zhao Fei shrugged. He wandered around the room, Linlin said that he would know what to do when he came in, but now he didn't see anything unusual.

"Crack."

A soft sound came from the back room.

Zhao Fei quickly dodged behind the door and peeked into the room. A black shadow rushed out and ran to another room at a very fast speed. Zhao Fei only saw that it had a big tail. "Fox? Weasel? Squirrel?..." Zhao Fei guessed, he pushed open the door and walked in.

The moment he entered, something flickered, but when he looked closely, the room was still pitch-dark without the slightest light.

"What's here?" Zhao Fei asked to himself.

As if to answer him, the light flickered again, but it was extremely faint, like the sparks of a cigarette **** in the dark.

"What's here!" Zhao Fei affirmed. He stretched out his hand in the darkness to touch the place where the light came from—under the bed. When he retracted his hand, he held two things in his hand. Guang, squinted and watched for a while, only to feel that it was like two lumps of mud, and I didn't know what it was for.

There were voices from outside the door, and it seemed that several men were talking in low voices.

"Damn, Linlin is still outside." Zhao Fei shoved something into his pocket and walked to the door.

"Look, she won't go far!"

Zhao Fei's heart trembled, it was Qiu He, he was not surprised that Qiu He would appear here, but what surprised him was Qiu He's tone, that kind of murderous tone, and the "she" in his mouth was only Could be Lynn.

"Damn." Zhao Fei cursed.

"She can't get into this house now, find her and tell her where things are." Qiu He ordered.

"Something..." Zhao Fei touched his pocket.

"Found it!"

"Here!"

"Don't run!"

“…”

There was a chaotic shout from outside the door.

"Lin Lin!" Zhao Fei couldn't care anymore and stepped out the door. Qiu He was instructing people to chase after Linlin. Thanks to Linlin's agile movements, she was walking through the alley and was not caught by them. Seeing that Qiu He was facing away from him, Zhao Fei took a wooden stick from the gate without thinking, and slammed it down when he hit him.

"Ah..." A scream pierced the night sky.

Qiu He only focused his attention on Linlin. He never thought that someone would come out from behind and be smashed to the ground by Zhao Fei with a stick.

"Linlin, run!" Zhao Fei called while waving at a few men who were rushing over and ran towards Linlin. Those men originally wanted to stop them, but they were only worried that their employer Qiu He didn't know what was wrong. After a moment of hesitation, Zhao Fei had already rushed over, "Bang bang!" Two shots fired a string of sparks on the ground beside them.

"God, they're crazy!" Zhao Fei shouted in his heart, no matter what the reason, these people actually shot himself and Linlin! This is not what happened between the father and the daughter, but... that man is not Linlin's father at all! Zhao Fei affirmed such a thought in his mind. But why do people in the village know him and say that he is Linlin's father Qiu He? At this time, they had already run out of the village, and the people behind did not catch up. Zhao Fei glanced back at the village, where it was still dark. Although people were barking and there were gunshots just now, they did not alarm the villagers at all.

Linlin grabbed his hand, and the two ran towards the forest.

"Idiot, you can't even catch a child!" Qiu He stood up by himself without waiting for someone to help him, and he yelled at his subordinates. Although Zhao Fei had already controlled the strength of his hand just now that he was afraid of killing him, he didn't seem to be injured at all, but he was very angry. He held the stick that Zhao Fei used to beat him in his hand, "Crack" It broke into two pieces.

"The thing is no longer in the house." One of the two old men who came back with Qiu He did not know when he appeared behind Qiu He, looked into the distance and said, "Maybe it was taken by that man."

"I just blocked the little girl from entering the house. I didn't expect that she could find help." Qiu He squinted his eyes and said, "That's fine, we can't find it anyway, so let him help us. Take it out. Go after them and remember not to hurt that girl, it's useless without her."

His subordinates agreed to go, and only Qiu He and the old man were left at the scene. Perhaps because there were no outsiders, the old man changed his title when speaking to Qiu He: "Master, shall I go after him too? "

"No," Qiu He waved his hand, "call Wu blame to come back, let's go to 'there' and wait. That little girl will go there with something sooner or later."

After Linlin took Zhao Fei's hand again and walked over the rope between the two mountains, Zhao Fei breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how many people there were, they couldn't cross this mountain stream and had to catch up with herself and Lin. Lin can only take a detour from the opposite mountain, it seems that she and Linlin are safe for the time being.

Lin Lin also looked at the opposite side, with no expression on her face.

"Linlin, don't be sad, I think that man must not be your father, he is impersonating! Your real father will come back to pick you up one day, he must be a good man, and he will love you very much, you say Right?" Zhao Fei knelt down in front of Linlin and said softly, he really didn't know how to comfort the child.

Linlin shook her head vigorously, not knowing what she wanted to say, she reached out to Zhao Fei and looked at him eagerly.

"By the way, what you want." Zhao Fei took out the two things and put them in her hands, "I don't know if it is it."

Linlin was very happy to get those two things, holding her hands against her chest for a while. Zhao Fei hadn't been able to see what it was. Now he took out the small flashlight on his body and took a picture, only to realize that it was two clay toys. bigger cat. "Children still like toys..." If Zhao Fei heard what Qiu He said after he and Linlin escaped, he might not think so, but now he is really tired, when Linlin leads him to a When he was in the cave of the big tree, he leaned against the wall of the cave, thinking in his mind, "I'm going to call the police tomorrow..." and slowly fell asleep. Linlin sat next to him and looked outside, tears rolled out from her eyes, and she murmured, "Dad...Dad..." She clenched the two toys in her hands.

This area has a vast virgin forest without any development. Now Lin Lin leads Zhao Fei to the depths of the forest. The scenery along the way is getting more and more "natural", with towering ancient trees and old vines hanging. There were more and more birds and beasts on the ground, and they didn't panic at all when they saw humans. Zhao Fei wondered whether there had been human footprints in these forests since ancient times. After dawn, Zhao Fei originally wanted to go back to the village to seek help from the villagers, and called the police to deal with it (at least to tell them that they had hidden firearms and attempted murder), but Linlin insisted that he go with her. Seeing Linlin's red and swollen eyes, obviously crying, and seeing her begging expression, Zhao Fei immediately surrendered to her and followed her away.

Things went wrong from the start.

First of all, Linlin's superpowers, and secondly, the father who suddenly appeared after missing for many years. His attitude towards Linlin is not at all like a father's attitude towards his daughter, and Linlin wants to show that those two things are really toys? I saw them glow when I went to get them myself. And Linlin asked herself for help, was it really because someone was guarding her and couldn't get through? In that case, shouldn't she go to those villagers. That's her home. The villagers will support her of course. The village was so noisy last night, why didn't anyone come out to see what happened? Is everyone really asleep to the point where they can't even hear the gunshots? Gun, Qiu He actually shot himself and Linlin...

Zhao Fei thought and felt that his head was dizzy. He didn't think about all kinds of possibilities in his mind: Is Linlin the heir of a certain property? So as a father, Qiu He wanted to control her, but he wanted to kill her if he couldn't? Or is it because Linlin has super powers, someone is trying to use her or manipulate her like her father? Maybe Linlin's father is no longer there, someone took his place, but Linlin knew about it...

Zhao Fei started his head with his hands, but he still considers himself a fantasy novelist. His imagination is so poor at the end of the day. He looked at Linlin who was leading the way and thought: According to the development of fantasy novels, this will continue very quickly. Do you know that Linlin should be a princess from another world? Mastered the power to save the world, and came to the world to escape the pursuit of the Demon King? And what about yourself? Since he appeared here at the right time, it might be a holy knight who was loyal to the princess, and followed him to protect the princess. Then the next plot is to fight the demon king, win, and then the princess and the knight's lover finally get married. It's a pity, the age of this princess... Zhao Fei looked at Linlin, she was almost ten years older than she is now. It seems that the plot will turn into a knight guarding the princess like a brother until one day she meets a prince.

"Plop."

Zhao Fei looked at his feet thoughtlessly, tripped over a vine, and fell on the ground. Linlin hurried back and squatted beside him to look at him with concern, and wiped the dust on his face with her hands.

As if the protector and the protected were reversed...

Zhao Fei propped himself up on the ground. When he tried to stand up, his legs went numb and he actually knelt on the ground.

"What's wrong!" Zhao Fei found that his limbs were all soft and he couldn't use any strength. Linlin beside him felt something and stepped back, trying to hide behind Zhao Fei.

"Who's there!" Zhao Fei shouted in the direction Linlin was looking at. Although his limbs were weak, he still pretended to be confident, not only to bluff the other party, but also to reassure Linlin.

"It's not easy. You are the first person who can hold the cartilage spell on his body." Someone came out while praising him. Zhao Fei saw a thin old man at least seventy years old standing in front of him, and he vaguely recognized that this was one of the old men with Qiu He.

"Linlin run!" Zhao Fei shouted. He knew that this person was here to arrest Linlin, and he couldn't move now, so he told Linlin to escape by herself and stay to see what they were trying to do.

Linlin opened her hands in panic. She was very scared, but she didn't want to leave Zhao Fei and run away.

"Linlin, go back to the village to find Grandpa Qiu and ask him to call the police, understand, call the police to catch the bad guys!" Zhao Fei wanted to send Linlin away.

"Call the police, hahahaha..." The old man laughed as if he had heard a big joke, "What can the police do to us! Little girl, bring it here by yourself, so that you won't suffer from flesh and blood!"

Linlin seems to have figured it out, so she turns around and runs away.

"Can you run away!" the old man said with a sneer.

Linlin ran for a few steps and she fell down suddenly, as if something pushed her back. She changed directions several times in a row. At this time, the old man walked towards her step by step, reaching out to her. She said, "Come and hand it over, and follow me obediently."

"Let's go with you!" Zhao Fei didn't know the strength coming from him, he stood up abruptly, and grabbed the old man's neck from behind. He was tall and big, and it was really easy to deal with such a dry old man. If it weren't for the lack of strength in his limbs, he could even break the opponent's neck. Even so, he still pinched the old man and rolled his eyes. After Linlin glanced at him with indescribable eyes, she turned and ran into the woods. This time, she was not blocked by anything, and soon disappeared. Seeing her disappear into the woods, Zhao Fei breathed a sigh of relief, and when he released his hand, he fell to the ground.

"Go!"

"Why should I listen to you!"

The old man didn't answer Zhao Fei's question, but kicked Zhao Fei's leg. Zhao Fei looked at Qiu He and the other old man in front of him, then looked at the old man behind him, and said angrily, "Kidnapping is illegal, do you know that?" The old man's answer was to raise his hand for The machete who opened the way wanted to cut him.

"No fault, don't kill him." Qiu He said coldly without turning his head back, "We have to use him to lead that little girl out."

"Yes, Master." The old man Wu Jiu respectfully agreed.

Zhao Fei knew that the blameless old man really wanted to kill him—he still had his own finger prints on his thin neck—but he was called Master Qiu He according to his age? And "Master"? What era is this word used for? Also, listening to their conversation all the way, Qiu He and these two old men named Wu Gui and Wu Yu also wanted the two toys they brought for Lin Lin, and they also wanted to use Lin Lin and those two toys to make a piece What's up. Things became more and more difficult to explain... Zhao Feinian was wearing a few talismans pasted on his body. For some reason, when these pieces of paper were pasted on his body, Zhao Fei couldn't use any strength. He tried to use When I touched it with my hand, it seemed like it was caught in flames, and the burning fingers were sore. Is this magic? Have you really stepped into a fantasy world?

Qiu He and the other three are not as capable as Lin Lin, who can come and go in the woods freely. It was dark, and they didn't have the ability to walk the mountain road at night like Linlin, so they found a camp in a clearing in the woods, and after placing Zhao Fei, the three of them crossed their knees, closed their eyes, and sat up in meditation.

Zhao Fei looked at the newly affixed amulet on his feet. It was because of it that he couldn't move his feet. What should I do now? Anyway, can't sit still. He tried to stretch out his legs and rub it back and forth on the roots of the tree. Who would have guessed that this yellow paper-covered talisman actually looked like cowhide, and there was not even a bit of paper hair for a long time.

Wu Jiu opened his eyes, gave him a sarcastic look, and closed his eyes again.

They were all awake, Zhao Fei understood in an instant, and now he couldn't escape. Now that's the case, let's just take a rest and let them stay vigil. He thought so in his heart, but it wasn't so easy to fall asleep. Things that he couldn't understand kept spinning in his mind, and what he cared about most was Linlin. I wonder what happened to her? Did you go back to the village or still in the forest? She must be very scared to face this at such a young age...

Zhao Fei felt that someone was walking beside him. After a while, the other party reached out and took off the spell on his feet and body.

"Qiu He!" Zhao Fei sat up and looked at each other, not knowing what he was going to do.

Qiu He in front of him looked like he had aged ten years all of a sudden. He looked at Zhao Fei, his lips wriggled for a long time before he said the word "run away."

Zhao Fei looked at him in disbelief.

Qiu He stretched out his hand and pointed to the depths of the jungle, begging and sorrow in his eyes.

"You are... Linlin's father..." Zhao Fei asked tentatively.

Qiuch nodded.

Zhao Fei understood somewhat, nodded to him, turned and ran into the jungle.

"He ran! Get it back! He ran!"

Zhao Fei didn't run far before a roar burst out from Qiu He's mouth, shaking the woods and causing countless night birds to fly...

Zhao Fei finally got rid of the vines wrapped around his feet and leaned against the tree to pant. This kind of virgin forest is too difficult to leave, and he gave Linlin his compass. Now he can't tell the difference between east, west and northwest. He is tired and hungry, but he doesn't even have a compressed biscuit on his body...

"No, I have to find Linlin quickly!" Zhao Fei shook his head vigorously to drive away the drowsiness. He believed that at the moment when he let himself escape, Qiu He was indeed Lin Lin's father, and his begging eyes were asking him to help his daughter. No matter if he is a dual personality or some magic has manipulated his body, or some other reason, the most important thing now is Linlin, we must find her before them.

Zhao Fei rolled up his sleeves and climbed up a big tree; he sat on the branch and looked around. As far as the eye can see, there are all forests and seas, and it is boundless, and it is difficult to see colors other than green, but Zhao Fei finally looked at the sunrise on the horizon and figured out the direction.

"This side is east, there is south... But what's the use of only knowing east, west, north, south! I don't even know where I am." Zhao Fei was muttering when a sudden burst of sound came from the woods in the distance. There was a commotion, and a large group of birds came out through the forest and flew into the sky. "There." Zhao Fei slipped down from the tree and ran there. Maybe those people found Linlin, and he had to hurry to save her.

Although Zhao Fei doesn't admit it, his sense of direction is really poor. He usually gets lost while holding a map. Today, he didn't make any mistakes. After forty minutes, he miraculously found his way in the virgin forest. found that place.

"What the hell..."

With just one glance, Zhao Fei knew that he had not looked in the wrong place.

The dozen or so trees near this place looked as if they had been caught on fire. They were all burnt in pitch black. Under one tree lay the body of a wild dog and bear. The body had been burnt to charcoal. It was a bear, because the bear's head was still intact. It was detached from the body and hung in the bushes. It stared at Zhao Fei fiercely. In these burned places, there was a corner of yellow paper. Still blowing in the wind.

"It was those three people who did it. Most of them used that kind of spell again." Zhao Fei muttered to himself. He had also read some stories about cultivators possessing supernatural powers in ancient notebook novels, but the reality is that It is really chilling to meet such a person in life. Things are getting more and more out of common sense. Zhao Fei feels that his mind is in a mess. He checked the direction of the three people, and quietly chased after them. He knew this. People are looking for Linlin, they have magic, they are running around the mountains like this, it is easier to find Linlin if they follow them.

He looked around, picked up a branch with a thick cup mouth, took out a knife and cut off all the branches, bark and charred parts, and cut a sharp point in front, and waved it in his hand: "Okay, look at me!" he muttered to himself, waving his stick and chasing forward.

Along the way, Zhao Fei encountered several places that had been destroyed by those people. Sometimes there were beasts, and sometimes there were places that were particularly difficult to walk. Zhao Fei noticed that although they could use such strange spells, but It is only used at critical moments, and in general, they would rather use a machete to open the way. "That is to say, their spells are limited and cannot be used all the time." Zhao Fei judged this, which is good news for him, otherwise, when he meets the other party, a few lightning bolts, magic bullets, ice guns... shoot them over, and his own This stick has no additional protection magic. In addition, Zhao Fei also discovered that there were indeed beasts in this forest. In the previous record of the three men, he not only saw a bear, a wolf, a jackal, but also an animal that looked like a leopard. Why haven't you met one of them? Could it be that the wild beasts were there to deal with those three people? Anyway, Zhao Fei didn't even find an animal bigger than a hare when he walked all the way.

Qiu He and Wu Jiao Wu Yu traveled through the mountains and forests. Their journey was exactly the opposite of Zhao Fei's "smooth road". From time to time, wild animals appeared in front of them, and thorns and vines always guided them in the direction they wanted to go. Sealed to death.

"Hateful! It's all the fault of that little girl!" Wu Yu scolded as he waved his knife and opened the way, "It's the same as her father! I don't know how to praise!"

"Hmph, that little girl doesn't have the ability to control the mountains and forests yet." Qiu He sneered, "It was her dead mother who supported her, but that's fine, I was still worried that this girl was too young, It's not enough to accomplish my big things, it's easier with the power of that woman."

Wuyu cut a path in the bushes. After they walked over, there was a small mountain wall in front of them, and the direction they could go was divided into two. "Master?" He looked at Qiu He questioningly, waiting for him to instruct where to go.

Qiu He closed his eyes and searched for the right way in his mind. His face became paler and paler, sweat seeping out of his skin, and after a while, his body began to tremble, and a low moan came out of his mouth, Wu Yu looked at him nervously.

"Hateful guy!" Qiu He opened his eyes and gasped against the tree, "The closer he gets here, the more he resists, I can't find the right route."

"Master, then..."

Qiu He waved his hand, "You don't have to worry, even if you're here, it's almost a matter of whether or not there is his guidance." He looked up and looked forward, stretching all the way to the woods on the edge of another cliff, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Smile, a long-cherished wish is finally about to come true. He remembered something and asked: "Why doesn't Wu Jiu come back?" That girl was the key to his plan, he sent his apprentice Wu Jiu to chase her, and with Wu Jiu's path, he should have found the child's whereabouts and caught her long ago. Yup.

Qiu He waved to Wu Yu, and the two walked forward again.

Zhao Fei finally saw the figure in front of him from far away, "Why are there only two people?" He looked carefully again, but still couldn't see the other old man. Did he go catch Linlin? Zhao Fei suddenly thought of the main point of the matter. He held back his plan to rush to rescue Linlin, as long as he followed these two people, even if the other one caught Linlin, he would eventually bring her back to the two of them. Zhao Fei thought so, clenched the head stick in his hand, and watched Qiu He and the others start walking again, keeping a distance, and crept up.

Linlin nimbly jumped into a bush with thorns, looked all the way, and was relieved when she found that no one was chasing after her, she sat down in the bush at once. Even if the bear walks through the bushes that will tear their fur, it seems that the child has not been hurt, and the branches like spirituality have avoided her body. Linlin trembled, buried her face in her hands, and her father's words came to her mind when she parted with her father: "Linlin, my father is gone, my father will bring my mother back to pick you up...but...if the time comes, If the one who came back is 'Dad', it means that Daddy is dead. Then you must take the things your mother left for you and run away - flee to the mountains, that is your forest, where no one can hurt you. "

My father is dead. Linlin knows this very well. Not only did her mother not come back, but her father also died... She covered her face and cried.

From a very young age, her father and mother always told her that this was her forest, and told her that no one or any force could hurt her here. But why are those people still able to catch up with her? She has been in this mountain forest since she was a child, and she also has the concept of "this is my forest" firmly in her mind. There has never been anything that can harm her, whether it is beasts, dangerous plants, or wildfires. Natural disasters like mud and rocks are so gentle in the face of her, so why can those people catch up with her. Linlin trembled all over. This was the first time she felt scared when she was in the forest, and felt that something would rush towards her at any time.

"Woooo..."

Linlin sobbed, disturbing a passing fox, it ran over to rub Linlin eagerly, licked her hand, and wanted to give her some comfort.

Linlin hugged it tightly and got a little warmth from this little fox. She wanted to escape, but she couldn't think of where to escape, and her heart was pounding.

"They killed my father, they killed my father..." Linlin thought about this sentence over and over again, and also captured Zhao Fei and her friend from her forest.

"No, I can't escape..." Linlin's biting lips turned white, "I can't escape... They killed Dad, I won't run away! And he is in their hands, I won't run away..." She stood up, Take two things out of the pocket and look at it. This is her mother's relic, and Linlin herself doesn't know what they are for, but if they want this, they will definitely go there.

"Help me."

Linlin put her hand on the nearest tree and said silently: "Help me, they killed my dad, help me, they killed my dad!"

The entire mountain forest was imperceptibly changing. Following Linlin's request, even the air in the mountain began to tremble slightly, and Linlin strode in one direction.

"Little girl, I found it!" Wu Jiu watched Linlin run past from behind the tree and narrowed his eyes. He took out a few spells and threw them around Linlin one after another. A "wall" of flames appeared around Linlin, and then sneered and walked in front of the panicked Linlin: "Little girl, follow me obediently, this time you run away. No more."

Linlin was forced to step back by him, and she retreated to the place where the flames had no way to go. She opened her eyes and watched him step by step. The innocent face in the flames looked extremely hideous.

"Hand over the things!" Wu Jiu grabbed Lin Lin's arm. He squeezed Linlin's arm hard, and Linlin's tears rolled in her eyes, but she stared at his face and closed her mouth tightly. What Qiu He and his apprentice wanted was something they couldn't see. If Linlin didn't hand it over, they couldn't get it. He raised his hand and gave Linlin a slap in the face, half of Linlin's face immediately turned red, but she still held back her tears, looking at Wugui's eyes without flinching at all.

"Although Master is not allowed to kill you, he didn't say that he wouldn't let you slash twice on your face, and he didn't say that he couldn't gouge out one of your eyes..." Wu Jiu said grimly, stretched out his hand, his Fingers with very long nails, pointed and sharp, dangled in front of Linlin, indicating that he was not intimidating.

Linlin don't look away from him.

"Children's eyes are very delicious, very delicious..." Wu Gui licked his lips to himself, he grabbed Lin Lin's chin and forcibly turned her head over and put his fingernails on her face Scratching lightly, "Which eye do you want to keep?"

Linlin simply closed her eyes.

Wu blame is hard to follow the desire to eat this child, she looks so fresh and delicious, and her unique origin, if you eat it, your Taoism will improve a lot. "When things are done, I'll ask Master to give you something to eat. For now, just eat one eye, one eye..." He gently stroked Linlin's face and pressed his fingers to her eyes .

Linlin was trembling, she was very scared, but she didn't want to beg for mercy, and she didn't want to give him anything.

"Dah, Dah,"

A soft voice came from behind.

Wu Gui turned back quickly, and several spells shot at the place where the sound came from. The spell was attached to the bush, sparking a few sparks, and the bush tore off some branches, but nothing alive appeared. Maybe it was some small animal, because he was over-hearted, Wu Jiu thought so, and turned around to force Linlin who was trying to escape. "Come on, give me your eyes..."

When Wu Gui's hand pressed Lin Lin's eyes again, he felt a huge pain in his vest. He wanted to turn his head to resist, but he didn't have the strength. He only had time to see himself when his head dropped. A sharp corner with silver light and blood dripped from his heart.

The woodland suddenly opened up, and a rippling lake appeared in front of it. From time to time, fish jumped on the water, making ripples. The lakeside is full of green grass, full of wild flowers, butterflies flying, and birds chirping incessantly.

"It's here." Qiu He said with certainty, "Wuyou, call Wu Gui back right away."

"Yes," Wuyu immediately threw a few spells into the air, the spells flickered in the air and disappeared.

"Monster that's unsightly!" Zhao Fei hid behind the tree far away, cursing in his heart.

"Sir, come and sit together." Qiu He sat down on the grass with his legs crossed and greeted Zhao Fei. "I've been found." Zhao Fei shrugged, walked out with a stick, stuck the stick on the ground and looked at them with a very tugged look.

"Now that you're here, why don't you come by yourself." Wuyu walked towards him, raised his hand and a spell and flew towards him.

"Die old monkey, do this again, do you think I will suffer the second loss!" Zhao Fei roared, and with a wave of his stick, he hit the talisman out like he was playing baseball. The talisman was hit in the air, the flames burned, and immediately turned to ashes. "Home run!" Zhao Fei said pretentiously, carrying the stick to his shoulder.

Both Qiu He and Wu Yu had expressions of disbelief on their faces: it was the first time they had seen someone break their spell in this way.

"Hmph, without that kind of weird stuff, do you think I'll be my opponent just by fighting?" Zhao Fei waved his big stick and walked over with malicious intent. It's not that he is bragging. He has been the king of beaters since he was a child. From hitting his classmates in kindergarten to hitting his boss after work, he has never lost whether it is one-on-one or one-on-ten. To beat the dry old man in front of him, a sickly middle-aged man is a piece of cake for him.

"Idiot." Wu Yu sneered, and threw out a few more spells. The target that owed him was not Zhao Fei, but the grass beside Zhao Fei. The mantra fell to the ground and made a "huo" sound, and a cloud of blue smoke was born, and several warriors with golden armor and swords appeared in the smoke.

"Phantom?" Zhao Fei held the stick across his chest and watched the warriors vigilantly.

"Clang!" A samurai slashed at him with a knife, slashing into the ground, splashing dirt and turf.

"It's not a phantom!" Zhao Fei shouted, and smashed the warrior on the back with a stick, knocking him to the ground, and the other warriors had already swarmed up and surrounded him. Zhao Fei wielded his stick and swung it around, and he was able to live up to the title of "King of Fighters" with one enemy. In other words, Zhao Fei suffered a big loss. Zhao Fei saw the opportunity and smashed a samurai on the head with a stick, knocking him to the ground, just as the swords of the two samurai fell off. Zhao Fei rolled on the spot, blocking the fallen samurai as a shield. With the two slashes, the samurai disappeared in a puff of blue smoke just like when he appeared.

"Monster!" Zhao Fei whispered through gritted teeth.

He has seen this kind of monster in ancient notebook novels. It is a common method used by warlocks to make monsters. It is a magic method that uses paper, clay, and wooden figures to materialize. Taoist monks and monks with advanced Taoism are present, and ordinary people can use black dog blood, I Ching or something to beat them back to their original shape.

"Damn, where can I find black dogs, I Ching, Taoist priests, and monks!" Zhao Fei shouted angrily, struggling to lift one warrior and throw it at the others. Even if you know what these are, and what is the use of knowing how to deal with them, who would carry the blood of a black dog and the Book of Changes around all day, and where in the world are there so many monks and Taoists.

"This kid is simply not human..." Wu Yu looked at the only three warriors he had made, and muttered in disbelief. He hurriedly lost a few more talismans and made a few. Zhao Fei, who fought under the siege of samurai, has completely exceeded his definition of "human". How could there be such a monster in the world. Although Zhao Fei was still fighting with the Golden Armored Warrior, he was still far away, but Wu Yu just looked at him with trepidation, and took out a few wooden figures from the bag and wanted to throw them over.

"No reputation!" Qiu He stopped him in a deep voice, and gave him a stern look. These dolls take a lot of time to make and infuse mana, and they will be of great use later. It's too wasteful to use on this kid.

"Clang!" Zhao Fei smashed a samurai's sword into the air with a single stick, and nearly hit him with no reputation. He was besieged by so many tireless samurai. Start preparing to escape, no, prepare for a "strategic retreat".

Wuyu saw his plan and sneered: No matter how powerful a human being, he must still be a human, but it's just a bit of brute force. He cast spells to Zhao Fei several times, but the effect was not very obvious, which made him very worried, thinking that this human has any magic or magic weapon to protect himself. Now it seems that he is overthinking it. "Kill, kill him!" He pointed to Zhao Fei and ordered loudly.

"Damn old man, don't let me catch you! Or make you a mummy!" Zhao Fei also yelled at him. The attack of the golden-armored warriors was even more fierce, and Zhao Fei also fought back more fiercely. Qiuhe turned a blind eye to these. He had been sitting cross-legged on the ground, staring at the lake in a daze, then suddenly stood up and walked towards the lake, Wuyu hurriedly followed him.

"The hour has come." Qiuch said hoarsely. His heart was deep and he was very nervous. After planning and preparing for many years, he finally reached this stage today. Now that everything is ready, he only owes Dongfeng, and his wish will soon be fulfilled. "Hurry up Wu Jiu and tell him to come back soon. If you don't catch the girl, leave her alone. Anyway, as soon as the mountain gate opens, she will come over sooner or later."

"Yes, Master." Wu Yu spit out another spell in the air.

Qiu He walked toward the lake, and went along the waves, walked all the way across the lake, and walked to the center of the lake, followed by Wuyu. "Monster! Damn old man!" Zhao Fei cursed angrily as he watched their actions.

Qiu He and the others don't care about Zhao Fei anymore. Standing on the water, I don't know what incantation. , layer by layer, erected in front of Qiu He's master and apprentice, like two walls of water. After about 20 minutes, the fluctuation of the lake water stopped, and in front of Qiu He's teacher and apprentice also appeared a ladder made of water surrounded by two water walls. The water waves are still flowing, shining with indescribable brilliance in the crystal clear sunlight, and the class has been stretched into the air, until the place where the eyes can see, I don't know how high it is. Qiu He shook his clothes and stepped on it, and the two of them stepped on the price ladder of water and walked into the air.

Zhao Fei was completely ignored in his fight with the Golden Armored Warrior. There were still four golden armored warriors left, but Zhao Fei was already sweating profusely, his arms were shaking, and he was about to lose his grip on the stick. There were wounds on his back, legs, and face, and blood was still pouring out. Zhao Fei grabbed the stick with both hands, and shouted and fought against the silent and expressionless warriors.

"One!"

With his roar, another samurai vanished into blue smoke. Zhao Fei put the stick on the ground to catch his breath, and the remaining three warriors lined up again and surrounded him. "If I had known, I would have gone to learn martial arts!" Zhao Fei regretted it. "At least it is better to learn some tricks and show legs than not to be beaten at all." ──If Wuyu knew what he was thinking, he knew that he didn't even know martial arts at all. No, I don't know if he will throw all his puppets and paper figures out, and wipe out Zhao Fei, who is more like a monster than a monster, as soon as possible.

"I've decided. If I can go back alive, I'll go to Shaolin Temple to apprentice. Wudang Mountain learns the arts. I don't care about South Boxing, North Legs, Knives, Guns and Sticks. I'll learn everything!" A samurai slapped him on the head a dozen times with a stick, then rolled on the spot, dodging the attack of another samurai. "No..." Zhao Fei gasped, his strength has weakened, there is no way to kill the warriors at once, they will always get up again and continue to pounce on Zhao Fei. The wooden stick used by Zhao Fei is a blunt weapon, and it is difficult to give the opponent a fatal blow. Think of using the knife in the opponent's hand. Once the knife reaches Zhao Fei's hand, it will turn into blue smoke and disappear.

"I hate demons, wait, if I see monks or Taoists in the future, I'll fight!" Zhao Fei, who was about to visit Wudang Mountain in Shaolin Temple just now, began to curse the monks and Taoists again. Stop, shouting about his determination. After he knocked down a warrior with one stick, the other two rushed up from behind and from the side respectively. Zhao Fei shrank to dodge one of the swords, but the other sword could not dodge, so he blocked it with a stick and slashed at his shoulder. The sore hand loosened and the stick fell to the ground. Before he could grab the stick on the ground, another samurai attacked from behind, so Zhao Fei had to roll and climb to a safe distance. A samurai flew and kicked the stick into the lake.

The situation turned into Zhao Fei's bare hands. Facing the three sword-wielding warriors in front of him, the golden-armored warriors slowly pushed towards Zhao Fei.

"Dong dong dong" There was a sound of drumming in the woods.

Zhao Fei didn't have time to look back. He just listened to what seemed to be walking in the woods behind him. As he approached, he was still beating drums. Who is so leisurely? He saw that the eyes of the three warriors on the opposite side were all focused behind him, and he also turned sideways and glanced behind him.

A snow-white "horse" came out of the bushes, with a long silver horn on its head, shining coldly in the sun, and Linlin sat on its back.

"Unicorn!" Zhao Fei called out immediately. He had written fantasy novels for so long, but he never thought that one day he would actually see a live unicorn. But when it came out of the bushes and appeared in front of Zhao Fei, Zhao Fei realized that it was dragging a black tail that was completely opposite to the white of its body. There were no horse hooves on its feet, but four furry tiger-like claws.

This "unicorn" walked right past Zhao Fei, and pressed towards the three warriors step by step, making a drum-like sound of "dong dong". Only then did Zhao Fei understand that he had just heard The sound of the drum is the cry of this "unicorn". Linlin jumped off its back and ran to Zhao Fei's side, holding her hands in panic, terrified by the large and small wounds on Zhao Fei's body. "Don't be afraid, it's no big deal!" Zhao Fei patted his chest and bragged, but opened his mouth in pain because of the wound on his shoulder.

Linlin looked at the way he was baring his teeth while trying to be a hero, and finally a smile appeared on his face that was originally full of sorrow.

The "unicorn" rushed forward. The weapons of the warriors were useless against it, and it would slide away after being chopped on it. It didn't hesitate to kill the warriors without any hesitation. Now, he turned his head and called Linlin "dong dong" again. Linlin looked at the ladder of water that stretched out to the sky, took a deep breath, and lay on the back of the "unicorn".

"Wait for me, wait for me, tell it not to move, I can't ride a horse!" Zhao Fei tore off his shirt and wrapped his wounds, and chased after Linlin shirtless, but he couldn't mount a horse. Around the "unicorn" round and round.

Linlin bit her lip and shook her head vigorously at him.

Zhao Fei also shook his head at her and looked at her firmly.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Linlin finally gave in. She patted the "unicorn" and it knelt down on its front legs, waiting for Zhao Fei to step up, "Wait a minute!" Zhao Fei shouted and rushed Entering the bushes, he soon came back with a wooden stick, he carried the stick on his shoulders and climbed on the back of the "unicorn", yelling "The knight who protects the princess is dispatched!"

"Unicorn" spread its legs and sprinted up the steps of the water quickly.

The steps on which the water condensed were high and steep. When Zhao Fei looked back, the lake water was as complete as a large mirror. Looking up, the steps are still endlessly extending, and I don't know where to go.

"Fortunately there is this unicorn, otherwise how long would I have climbed." Zhao Fei rode on the back of the "unicorn", grabbed the horns with both hands, and protected Linlin in his arms, sighing At the speed of this "unicorn". Linlin raised her face and blinked in confusion.

"Linlin, where did you find it? I thought 'unicorns' were a European specialty."

Linlin shook her head vigorously, grabbed Zhao Fei's hand, and wrote the word "Ma Jiao" in his palm.

"Majiao?" Is that its name? “

Lin Lin stroked her horse's mane and nodded.

"Ma Jiao..." Zhao Fei's chest showed a passage of "Shan Hai Jing" that he had read before: "... Its shape is like a horse with a white body, black tail, one horn, tiger's claws and teeth, its sound is like the sound of a drum, and its name is It's called Majiao, it eats tigers and leopards, and it can control soldiers..." I used to like the "Shan Hai Jing" so much, I memorized the paragraphs in it, why did the first thought in my heart when I saw Ma Jiao was "One Horned" beast"? When I write fantasy stories, I really think that elves, dwarves, and flying dragons really exist, so what about Majiao? What else are Tianma, Bifang, Qingji... Have these really existed in my heart?

"Hahahaha, I know how to write it! They really exist! I'm riding one right now!" Zhao Fei suddenly burst into laughter, "I know how to write it, hahahaha... …”

Linlin's eyes widened, she didn't know what was wrong with him, she quickly held him tightly, afraid that he would fall from the sky. Even Ma Jiao shook his ears, showing a strange expression.

"I'm about to write a work that is shocking and weeping ghosts and gods, you wait and see... Hahahaha... See who dares to post to criticize me..."

In Zhao Fei's wild laughter, they had reached the end of the stairs. The steps of water under their feet extended into the floating clouds, but in front of them was a majestic mountain range. Green, birds and beasts chirping, the top of the mountain is covered with snow, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. Zhao Fei looked around and determined that they were not standing on a mountain flying in the air, but a real mountain range on the ground, another world, illusion, space transfer... Zhao Fei's mind was immediately filled with such assumptions . He dismissed these thoughts when he saw a strange animal sticking its head out of the forest to look at him. It was a mouse-like body, but a little bigger than a mouse, with a turtle head, and was watching curiously with its neck stretched and shrunk. "Wang Wang" screamed and hid in the grass.

"...Many of them are savage, with the body of a rat and the head of a turtle, and their sound like a barking dog..." Zhao Fei recited the "Shan Hai Jing" on his back. Zhongdu belongs to the creatures of the fourth mountain system of the Western Mountains, so have you come to the mythical world of ancient legends? Before he came back to his senses, Ma Jiao had already carried them up the mountain.

Zhao Fei's brain has been immersed in mythology since just now, and all he thinks about is how to write his novels, and it is only now that he remembers that they are going to chase Qiu He and the others, "Linlin, you Do you know where they went?—this mountain is so big—be careful there is another person hiding somewhere, and they said they sent him to chase you."

Linlin shuddered and leaned against Zhao Fei. The situation of Ma Jiao piercing Wugui to save her was still spinning in her mind, even if she was used to seeing animals For her, who is the strong prey to the weak, the situation still made her terrified. She was scared to death at the horse, but when the horse came to her, a voice came out of her mind: "Our strength is not enough to save you, so I entrusted a friend, come on, Come with it...Come on, it's your responsibility..."

"My responsibility..." Linlin vaguely remembered that her father seemed to have explained this to her back then, saying that there was something that was her responsibility, but Linlin was too young at that time, and she didn't How can I understand the whole meaning of my father. Now she heard the word "responsibility" again, and her heart was lifted. The voice was saying "we", who did "we" refer to? Must be Mom and Dad! Thinking about this, Linlin didn't care about her fear, jumped on the horse's back, and let it run away with her.

"Dong dong, dong dong dong!" Ma Jiao made a "drum sound" as he ran. This familiar voice warned the wild beasts and monsters in the mountains and forests, making them all avoid far away. Majiao is different from Western unicorns. It is not vegetarian, but a monster that can eat tigers and leopards, and can control swords and soldiers. In the nineteen mountains of the Quaternary Mountains of Xishan, there are almost no creatures that can fight with it. So no matter how much the human breath stimulates the stomachs of the monsters and beasts in the forest, they still run over unimpeded because of the fear of horses. The woods along the way are still full of traces of Qiu He's master and apprentice passing: broken, fallen trees, vines and the corpses of various beasts, it is not difficult to follow them.

"Where are they going? Where are we going?" Zhao Fei asked.

Linlin shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either. She hugged Ma Jiao's neck tightly and let it take her away.

Qiu He and his apprentice stopped on a hilltop flat. They laid a white mat on the ground, killed a white rooster without honor, and drenched the blood on the rice that had been sprinkled on the mat beforehand, while Qiu He Then they danced and danced on one side, reciting words. Zhao Fei knew that this was a ritual to worship the mountain god, so why did they hold it? Are they going to do something that would offend God?

Linlin stretched out a hand and pointed to the front.

Zhao Fei took a look, there was only a huge boulder covered with old vines, there was nothing surprising. Linlin pointed there and nodded, indicating that she was going there. Zhao Fei looked from east to west, looking for a route that could avoid the eyes of Qiu He's master and apprentice. At this time, he walked out of the bushes with the horse who had been beside them, and kept walking towards Qiu He and his master.

"Nosy monster!" Qiu He narrowed his eyes at Ma Jiao grimly. Ma Jiao used the horn on his head to swipe in the air, and the earth and rocks flew around, and there was a scratch more than half an inch deep. Let you taste the meaning of greatness.

"Let's go over quickly." Zhao Fei knew that Ma Jiao was delaying time for them, so he pulled Linlin up and ran quickly over the boulder.

When Linlin put her hand on the boulder and the boulder slowly rose into the air, Zhao Fei was full of tension, guessing what was behind: a cave, a mysterious passage, or just another world? However, when the boulder was fully raised, a moss-covered mountain wall still appeared behind.

"Nothing?" Zhao Fei said strangely, touching the hard and damp mountain wall with his hands.

Linlin pounced in confusion, groping up and down the stone wall. She intuitively knew that the answer to everything was behind this stone wall. She thought she would see her parents soon, but she didn't expect that there would be nothing behind. But her panic was only for a short moment. Immediately, her body was surrounded by a mass of light, and she walked in through the stone wall.

"Linlin! Linlin!" Zhao Fei shouted anxiously, patting the stone wall, his hands hurt, and there was still no response in the stone wall.

"That little girl has already gone in?" A gloomy voice sounded from behind, and then Zhao Fei's body went numb and fell to the ground, and Qiu He and his apprentice came over.

"Impossible!" Zhao Fei thought in surprise, looked at where they were standing, and found that Ma Jiao was covered in blood, struggling on the ground but couldn't get up. "Such a powerful horse will be defeated!" When Zhao Fei looked up, Qiu He waved his hand, and his eyes were pitch black, and he couldn't see anything. But I could still hear Qiu He saying, "Wuyu, it's still useful for you to carry him." The body could also feel that he was being carried.

Qiu He stood at the place where Linlin disappeared, reciting the incantation. After about half an hour, he and Wuyu's body also gave birth to a ball of light and entered the stone wall.

After Linlin entered the stone wall, she stood in a tall hall. At this moment, she forgot about the danger, Zhao Fei and Ma Jiao, Qiu He and Wuyu, and ran forward with open arms. Tears streamed down his cheeks.

"Mom!"

She shouted so, and rushed to the statue of the **** enshrined in the middle of the hall, climbed on the throne, and snuggled into the arms of the statue. It is a statue of a woman. The lifelike carvings depict her peerless appearance. Her body is surrounded by clothes made by Tengluo, which is carved into a giant leopard, holding a fox in her hand. biological appearance. "Mom..." Linlin lay in her arms and cried out in grievance, but of course the idol wouldn't answer, and still looked at her with a smile. "Mom, tell me, where have you been? How can Dad come back to me?" Linlin put her head on the statue, trying to convey such thoughts. "Mom, you answer me! Mom..."

Linlin's silent cries made invisible waves in the hall, and a low sigh came into her mind...

When Qiu He and Wuyu walked in with Zhao Fei, Linlin sat upright in front of the statue, waiting for them expressionlessly.

"Girl, let's go." After looking at each other for a long time, Qiu He said hoarsely.

"You think your ambition is really that easy to achieve!" A sneer spit out from Lin Lin's mouth, "A human being who is over-comprehensive."

"Oh..." Qiu He was taken aback, "It turned out to be you." But he calmed down immediately, "You are better, I'm still worried that the girl's strength is not enough to open the door. Do what I say, otherwise Qiu He and this kid will die." He roared fiercely.

Linlin didn't say a word, jumped up and ran to the back of the main hall, Qiu He followed closely, but he was miserable. He was carrying the tall and heavy Zhao Fei, panting, but unwilling to do so. Falling behind, for fear that the master himself will get the benefit and forget himself.

Behind the main hall is another hall, and another... it continues. In each hall there is a statue of a god. They are all beautiful women like the first statue. They also carved a leopard and a raccoon. After walking through the twenty-nine halls, a long corridor appeared behind. The straight corridor is about five kilometers long. When it comes to the end, it suddenly opens up in front of you, and there is an open space that is hard to reach. Linlin stops in front of a mountain. There is chaos before, under, and above the cliff. Can't see clearly either.

"Open the door," Qiu said sternly.

Linlin looked at him with a sneer.

Qiu He took out the dagger and put it on his neck, and the blood immediately seeped out.

"Do you really think I don't know, is he already dead?" Lin Lin said slowly, "The method of seizing the house is such a vicious method..."

"You know, think about your daughter." Qiu He added.

"My daughter..." Linlin put her arms around her shoulders and said sadly, "Poor child, it's not enough to lose a mother, but also to lose a father..."

Although Zhao Fei couldn't move his body or open his eyes, he could still hear clearly, and his head turned quickly, "This is Linlin's mother, how could it be a child's voice... By the way, she is already dead, so Attached to Linlin... Qiu He said he wanted this kid's life, of course this kid meant me, Qiu He? Could it be... the way to seize the house? Something took over Qiu He's body, yes, then I saved him My one is Qiu He..."

"I don't believe it, you are willing to sacrifice your daughter and husband!" "Qiu He" laughed wildly.

Zhao Fei felt that he was thrown on the ground. Although there was no sound of fighting, the air flow was interlaced. He felt that both sides were starting to move. He tried to move his body, but the numbness still permeated his body.

"Don't use your strength, use your will..." A voice entered Zhao Fei's mind.

"Will?"

"Yes."

"You think I'm a cartoon character! Do you want me to burn the microcosm? Activate the sixth sense?" Zhao Fei exclaimed for the other party's excessive demands.

"Quick! Please save my daughter!"

"...You are Qiu He?"

"Alas..."

"Don't sigh, at least tell me what happened first? Who is that person in your body?"

"...After my wife passed away, I knew that she was still alive, so I wanted to save her. That 300-year-old Taoist priest claimed to have a way to save her, so I..."

"The method of seizing the house... You originally wanted your wife to be attached to someone else's body to revive, but you ended up taking your own life! It also caused Linlin to grow up like an orphan!" Zhao Fei showed no mercy said.

"No... my wife cannot use a human body, she must..."

At this moment, there was a scream from Linlin, followed by "Qiu He"'s wild laughter, and the voice in Zhao Fei's mind suddenly disconnected.

"Lin Lin!" Zhao Fei couldn't care about anything else, so he blurted out a voice, then jumped up and punched Wu Yu who was standing beside him. After knocking Wuyu to the ground and stepping on countless feet, he could see the surrounding environment clearly, and also saw Linlin being held by Qiu He's neck and held in his hand.

Qiu He was surprised to see that he actually stood up again, and after a while he finally expressed his evaluation of him: "You are simply not human."

"You're not human! Release Linlin for me." Zhao Fei immediately began to look for the guy who was in his hand.

"Open the door immediately!" Qiu He ignored him and continued to threaten Linlin.

"Let go of her!" Zhao Fei punched him, but Qiu He pointed his finger and hit the wall. He immediately got up and rushed over, but was knocked down again. This was repeated several times. Zhao Fei hit harder each time, but also got closer to Qiu He each time. Finally, Zhao Fei rushed to Qiu He and punched him. on his chin. Although this Qiu He was powerful, his response was very slow. He was knocked over by Zhao Fei with a punch, and he opened his mouth and spat out a **** tooth. "You!" He roared, and suddenly raised his hand towards Zhao Fei, Zhao Fei was thrown into the air by a force, and then fell to the cliff.

"Damn!" Qiu He stroked his chin and stood up. At this time, Linlin had gotten rid of his control and stood opposite him.

"This is my forest!" Her voice was incomparably clear, "This is my forest! You are not welcome!" Following her words, the green plants under her feet, around her head,... It began to emerge one by one, one by one, one by one, and stretched towards Qiu He at a very fast speed. Qiu He wanted to step back, but was stopped by the tree behind him. Whether it was the vines wrapped around his neck or the branches poking into his chest, the amount of these plants was too much for him to deal with. Qiu He threw out all the paper figurines, clay figurines, and wooden figurines and asked them to help cut down trees, but he still couldn't resist the speed of tree growth.

"This is my forest, everything is an extension of my life..." "Linlin" repeated, she wanted to tell the real Linlin in this body, she knew she didn't have much time Now, I want to try to teach Linlin something that their race must know. "We are the masters of the forest, the intermediary between gods and people, and the boundary between heaven and earth..." The trees ate up the warriors little by little, and when they were about to hold Qiu He down, "Lin Lin" suddenly swayed and spoke. Spit out blood and kneel on the ground. Seeing her like this, Qiu He immediately laughed wildly: "No matter how talented you are, your daughter's body can't bear it! This time, let's see what tricks you can use..." As he said, he separated the bushes and walked towards Linlin.

When Zhao Fei fell off the cliff, he thought in his heart: "Masters, martial arts secrets, thousand-year-old elixir, adventures... I'm here... The protagonist will never die if he falls off the cliff..." It was too late to think more Too much, and fell on a soft mass.

"What is this?" Zhao Fei found that he was not injured. After getting up, he realized that apart from the fact that the towering cliff above was real, he had actually fallen into chaos, surrounded by a vast expanse of chaos, what? He couldn't see either, the feet were soft, but he couldn't see what he stepped on. If it wasn't for the cliff above his head, he couldn't even make out the up, down, left, and right.

"Do you want to know?" a voice asked softly

"How do I climb up?" Zhao Fei was looking at the cliff and grabbing his head to think of a way, and at the same time decided to learn rock climbing as soon as he got back.

"Do you want to know?"

"Who?" Zhao Fei finally noticed it, but he was confused and didn't see anyone.

"Do you want to know?"

Zhao Fei gave up looking and shouted in the direction of the voice: "You will say a word! Hurry up and tell me how to get up!"

"Do you want to know?"

"Yes! Tell me quickly!" Zhao Fei was already jumping anxiously.

The voice got closer and narrated slowly in Zhao Fei's ear: "The story happened like this...this...this..." (Zhao Fei fainted)

In Zhao Fei's mind, scenes that he had never seen before appeared:

In the lush mountain forest, a woman is playing with animals. She is so beautiful. Although she is clothed in vines and only decorated with a wild flower on her head, her face and body exude a refined atmosphere. But it overshadowed the beauty of nature. She was playing happily, with almost all the animals that Zhao Fei could be famous for. Wherever she walked all the way, all the flowers were blooming, and the fruit was pressing down the branches.

A human appears on the screen.

Zhao Fei could recognize that person as Qiu He, but he was so young and full of life at that time, walking into the animals with a bright smile.

"Are you leaving?" the woman asked regretfully.

"Well, my school is about to start." Qiu He's voice was also full of youthful vitality.

"We haven't gotten married yet." The woman fiddled with the flowers and plants in her hand, "When do you want to come back?"

"It will take many years, you don't have to wait for me, as long as it is a human man, right?" Although Qiu He always pretended to be nothing, he still revealed his true psychological thoughts, "You mountain ghosts. You can only give birth to girls, so you want to intermarry with humans and have offspring. Didn't you say that because I was the first human man you met, there are many human beings in the world, maybe you will meet another one soon ." The tone and words were completely inconsistent.

"Also..." The woman actually agreed with him.

Qiu He turned back in frustration.

"But I'm already in love with you, and I don't want anyone else."

"What did you say!" Qiu He appeared in front of her again in an instant, grabbed her shoulder and asked in surprise.

"I only want you, I don't want anyone else." The woman said charmingly with her head sideways.

Qiu He hugged her, laughing and circling in the woods, announcing loudly: "I'm not going to school! I'm not going anywhere! I want to be with you!"

It turns out that this is Linlin's mother... It seems that Linlin must be a beauty in the future... Zhao Fei thought so, the scene in front of him was fading, and a new picture appeared again.

In this picture, there is a family of three. Qiu He and his wife are walking in the woods with a little girl who looks like a flower petal. After a while, the woman puts the child on the back of a leopard. He smiled and grabbed the leopard's neck hair to let it run with him.

"He, take the child away!" The woman suddenly raised her eyebrows and greeted her husband loudly.

Qiu He seemed to be used to this kind of thing, and immediately picked up the child and disappeared into the deep forest. The woman turned around and looked at the front coldly: "Why do you guys break into this place over and over again?"

"Open the gate of heaven, spare you from dying." The other party's tone was even louder.

"Red leopard, Wenli!" Following the woman's shout, a majestic red leopard and a fox-like animal appeared at her feet, "If you don't quit, kill without mercy!"

A gust of wind blew, the woman's figure and the three shadows fought together, and then Zhao Fei's eyes went black. When he saw the surroundings again, the illusion had disappeared, and he still stood there.

That's how Lin Lin's mother died - Zhao Fei connected the whole thing in his mind.

Linlin's mother is not a human (it shouldn't be), and their family (or race) can only bear females, so they reproduce by intermarriage with humans. This family (race?) has the responsibility of guarding the "gate of heaven", or the ability to open the gate of heaven, so some people with ambitions to ascend to heaven set their goals on them. Linlin's mother was killed in order to guard Tianmen, and the person who killed her continued to set her sights on the young Linlin. He deceived Linlin's father by using the excuse that Linlin's mother was still alive and could be resurrected. Probably the original purpose was to deceive the young Linlin, so that she would be at the mercy of her since she was a child and grow up. Open the door of heaven for them, but Linlin's father Qiu He was more attentive and left Linlin in the mountain village. In the end, Qiu He finally failed to achieve his wish to save his wife, but instead was occupied by the other party in some way. He used Qiu He's appearance to deceive Linlin originally, but who knew that Linlin was not fooled, so he used violence to force Linlin into submission, and finally brought out the soul of Linlin's mother.

"What exactly is Tianmen?" Zhao Fei asked.

"The door to heaven." (Zhao Fei fainted again)

"Where are you? Don't show your face!" Zhao Fei rolled up his sleeves and wanted to flatter people.

"The Gate of Heaven is the road from the mortal world to Kunlun."

"Kunlun..." Zhao Fei understood.

"Please help that child."

"That's up to you! By the way, who are you?"

"...We are friends from Ma, and we have guarded this family for 30,000 years from generation to generation..."

"Then what about yourselves..."

"Lin Lin's strength is not strong enough to call us, we can't show up... Please help that child."

"No problem!" Zhao Fei immediately grabbed the rock and prepared to climb up. Before he could start to climb, countless plants suddenly appeared and stretched upwards rapidly. Zhao Fei immediately grabbed a vine and let it carry him up. As soon as he showed up, he saw Linlin vomiting blood.

"Bastard!" Zhao Fei jumped over, grabbed the vine and swayed over, just riding on Qiu He, grabbing his neck and twisting it.

"The hill of Kunlun, or double it; it is a mountain that exhausts the cool wind, and you can climb it without dying. Or you believe it, it is called hanging garden, when you climb it, it is a spirit, which can replace wind and rain. Or double this, it is Wei Shangtian, ascended to all gods, is called the emperor..." Lin Lin recited, stood up from the ground, "My family guards the gate of heaven, you have never seen people like you, you really think I fight Tianmen, can you go to Kunlun, pass through the abyss of weak water and the mountain of flames?"

Qiu He and Zhao Fei scuffled into a ball, unable to speak.

"Forget it, I don't have much time, Lin Lin, remember how to open the door. Mom won't have a chance to teach you in the future."

"Lin Lin" took out the two items from her pocket, muttered a few words, and threw them into the air. After a while, colorful lights flickered in the air, followed by two long howls, a red leopard, a Wenli jumped out of the air, and stood on both sides of Linlin solemnly. Between their eyes, a road twists and turns upwards, until it reaches a dazzling white light.

"The Kunlun Mountains, the capital under the emperor..." Qiu He murmured, this is what he has been pursuing all his life. He shook off Zhao Fei and rushed there.

"You're immortal, you can call the wind and call the rain, you're sick!" Zhao Fei was as familiar with ancient myths as he was, and immediately knew what he wanted to do, and then he fell with his legs upside down.

"I'm going to become an immortal, hahahaha, I'm going to be an immortal!" A burst of laughter came. Everyone looked up, only to see that Wuyu had already set foot on that road. He had been pretending to be dead since he was knocked down by Zhao Fei just now, and he rushed forward before everyone paid attention to him. Laughing and running forward.

"Lin Lin"'s attention was all on Qiu He, and he was not prepared to go over first, so he was stunned and hurried after him.

"I am the one who should become immortal!" Qiu He suddenly gained strength, pushed Zhao Fei away, and rushed over.

The master and the apprentice were one after the other, and Linlin happened to be sandwiched between them. Suddenly, a figure was separated from Linlin and Qiu He. One of the two rushed towards Qiu He and the other towards Wuyu. Suddenly, the wind was blowing, the dust was flying, and Linlin fell to the ground all of a sudden.

Zhao Fei hurried over.

When Zhao Fei picked up Linlin, the wind over there had stopped, a beautiful woman and Qiu He appeared in the air, their bodies were transparent, but they grabbed "Qiu He" and Wu He respectively. Yu's body, the two struggled hard, but couldn't break free.

"Dad, Mom!" Linlin exclaimed.

"Linlin, it's your father who's sorry for you... I wanted to bring your mother back for you, but it made you an orphan..."

"Dad, Daddy!" Linlin screamed, terrified of hearing the word "orphan".

"Lin Lin, did you remember what your mother said just now? You will be the owner of this mountain forest in the future, and the responsibility of our mountain ghost family to guard the gate of heaven is also handed over to you."

"Mom..."

The resistance of "Chou He" and Wu Yu is getting stronger and stronger.

"Mom and Dad are leaving, Linlin, remember, this is your forest, the soul of Mom and Dad is here, always with you..."

"Dad, Mom..." Linlin can only cry.

"Red leopard, Wenli, remember your new master."

Finally, their figures became weak, and at the moment when "Qiu He" and the others were about to escape, the ground cracked open, and countless tree roots protruded out, dragging them into the ground together with "Qiu He" master and apprentice. The ground trembled and everything returned to its original state. Only Zhao Fei left a sentence in his ear: "Thank you for taking care of this child."

"Dad, Mom... Dad, Mom..." Linlin cried repeatedly, but there was no response. Zhao Fei held her in his arms. It was the first time that he heard the child speak, but he said such sad words... Because the raccoon and the red leopard were supporting the road, they were standing there watching all this, with tears in their eyes. It fell in large drops, making a low whine.

After a long time, Linlin finally calmed down. She stared blankly at the road made by her mother and seemed to be thinking about something. She suddenly stretched out her hand to Zhao Fei and pointed to the front.

"You told me to go?" Zhao Fei waved his hands hastily, "No, no, no, I don't want to be immortal!"

Linlin nodded, she stretched out her hand and made a gesture, and the road disappeared into the air. As soon as the red leopard and the striped raccoon let go of their task of guarding the gate, they immediately came to Linlin's side, snuggled up to her, and made out with her, but it didn't take long for their bodies to shrink back to the shape of toys. Linlin put them back in her pocket with melancholy.

Linlin suddenly remembered something and pulled Zhao Fei to run out.

"What's wrong? Linlin?"

"Road!" Linlin called anxiously.

"Road?" Zhao Fei suddenly understood that Qiu He was dead (or the Taoist priest in Qiu He's body died), the road he created when he came - the water steps will disappear, Then you don't want to be left here! "No way..." He was injured and his physical strength was almost exhausted. He felt like he couldn't run, but he still ran without life: "If I can't go back, how long will it take? I only hired half of it. Monthly leave."

Linlin looked at him apologetically: "One year."

Zhao Fei understands what she means by saying that her own mana is not enough, and she has to open the door again until next year. "Stop joking, if I don't go back for a year, I will be expelled from the unit, scolded to death by my mother, and buried alive by netizens." Zhao Fei shouted and ran with all his strength. When the stairs were seen from a distance, the setting sun was already shining on it, and the brilliance was flowing ~IndoMTL.com~ The water seemed to be thinning.

"Dong Dong, woo woo woo." Ma Jiao came out of the bushes, although he was covered in blood, he was in good spirits.

"Ma Jiao, you're not dead!" Zhao Fei was so happy to see it that he even forgot about going back. The horse came over, knelt down on his front legs, and looked at his back.

"You want to run with us? You are so good! Definitely cuter than a unicorn!" Zhao Fei complimented and stepped up. Linlin thought about it and jumped up.

"Linlin? Aren't you staying?" Zhao Fei heard her mother say that Linlin would be the master here.

"Linlin...I only came when I grew up...there..." Linlin pointed to her feet, "It's my forest..."

Ma Jiao ran like the wind, and soon set foot on the stairs, it ran down quickly, and as the sunset faded, the stairs also went up from the bottom, and the first step disappeared... Finally, in A few dozen meters away from the water, the two fell head-to-head, making a few "thumps", splashing Lao Gao's water.

The door to the other world is closed.

"It's back!" Zhao Fei got out of the water, patted the water and cheered loudly, and a smile finally appeared on Linlin's face.

"Woo hoo." Ma Jiao whispered, looking at the closed channel, it knew that it would not be able to go back within a year, but it did not regret it, because it once told its friends Chi Leopard and Texture promises to protect their owner in their place until she can summon them to her side. "I will keep my promise..." It thought so and leaned towards Linlin, Zhao Feizheng lifted Linlin up and cheered loudly...
