Chapter 20 The Learning Spirit of Never Giving Up
"Meow..." The big meow suddenly walked to the person who had just been caught by it, and used his paws to push the child who was scared into a ball, and pushed him in the direction of her.
Shi Xia was stunned, "Give it to me?"
"Meow!" nodded.
The people of Cat Star are really polite, they all know that there is a exchange of courtesy!
Shi Xia walked over and picked up her trembling little body on the ground, "Don't be afraid, the big cat is just scaring you, it doesn't eat people." She pulled away the hair that was covered with mud and tears on her face, but the face below looked more and more familiar.
"Niu Niu!" Isn't this the little girl she saved half a year ago? It turns out that Big Meow not only bullies the children, but also bullies the same children.
The little girl was stunned, then raised her head and looked at Shi Xia blankly, but she didn't move for a long time.
It seems that she was really scared, Shi Xia tried to whisper as much as possible, "Niu Niu, I am Sister Xia, do you still remember? We met half a year ago?"
Niu Niu opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't make a sound, but her tears fell like water that opened the gate.
I couldn't help it anymore, and with a wow, I threw myself into her arms.
"Wow...sister...sister, wow..." She cried so hard that she couldn't help but burped, and hugged her tightly like an iron arm.
"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore. Sister is here." Shi Xia felt heartbroken and couldn't help but look back and glar at a culprit, "Look at the good thing you did!"
The big cat turned his head without any guilt and turned around and pointed his furry butt at her.
"..." The cat star is indeed unreasonable.
Shi Xia coaxed her for a long time before Niu Niu stopped crying, but she still grabbed her timidly and did not dare to let go. Shi Xia helped her wipe her tears, and after careful examination, she found that she was even worse than half a year ago. Her body was dirty, not as if it was dirty when she was chasing her, but as if it hadn't been washed for a long time, and there were several obvious holes.
"Niu Niu, why are you here alone, your brother?" She remembered that she had an older brother named Xuan Lin, why did she get separated again?
Niu Niu was stunned for a moment, subconsciously squeezed into her arms again, and after a while, he replied in a buzzing voice, "Brother said he wanted to find the immortal, and said... he wanted me to wait."
What?
What a mess? Shi Xia patted her on the back and helped her get angry. She asked several times before she figured out what she was saying. It turned out that after she was passed away by the teleportation array that day, Xuan Lin still did not give up and was looking for the immortal sect. But I don’t know if they were unlucky and had never found it. Finally, I found out that there would be immortals near Longcheng to accept disciples, so they ran over all the way. But they accidentally got separated on the road again.
Shi Xia frowned. Xuan Lin was really lost once last time, but this time he didn't even look at him tightly, but he actually lost his sister again.
In this way, her brother is probably in Longcheng now. Shi Xia has no place to go, and Yuhua Sect can't go back. Let's not talk about Yuanwu knowing that she is not dead, so he might be punished.
Besides, there may be other hidden secrets in this matter. Yuanwu knew that he was dead, and the first person he doubted was him. He dared to take action, so he naturally had already figured out a way to deal with the cheap brother and Bi Hong. Maybe who is hidden behind him?
When Shi Xia thought of this, he felt a little cold behind him, so the Yuhua Sect must not go back, otherwise she wouldn't know why she died. It would be better to help Nuoniu go to Longcheng to find Xuanlin first.
But the key is...where is Longcheng?
"Niu Niu, has your brother ever said where Longcheng is?"
Niu Niu shook her head.
Sure enough, how to find this?
"Meow!" The big cat suddenly turned around and shouted at her.
"You know?"
"Meow!" He turned around and lay down in front of her, rolled her ankles with his furry tail, pulled forward, and signaled her to ride on its back.
"You want to take us there?" Shi Xia's heart moved. She had never ridden a meow before.
"Meow~" Big Meow nodded her big head, but lowered her head slightly to look at the person in her arms, and roared like a threat, successfully scaring Niu Niu to tears again.
The meaning is very obvious, take her, not take a girl.
Shi Xia twitched his lips. It really didn't like children, but what's the use of her going alone? She sighed deeply and had to point a finger.
"A dried fish!"
"Meow." The big cat turned his head proudly, hum, am I a cat who was impressed for the dried fish?
"Two dried fish!" Shi Xia continued to increase the price.
"Meow." The big meow was still unmoved.
Shi Xia had no choice, "Three pieces, three pieces are OK, right? There can't be more."
"Meow~~~" The deal was completed. The big meow immediately lay down.
"..." You have lost all the moral integrity of the cat.
Niu Niu was still a little scared. Shi Xia comforted her for a long time and repeatedly guaranteed that the big cat would never hurt people. Then she followed her to climb onto the cat's back with fear.
As soon as he sat down, the big cat wings flew up. Perhaps because of his weight, it was not very high, and was just above the forest. Shi Xia then realized how dense the forest was. Under the cover of those big trees, the ground could not be seen at all.
Various roars came from time to time in the forest, and you could vaguely see other hideous monsters walking around in the forest.
Maybe it was because of the big cat that they almost flew out of the forest and did not see any monsters rushing over, but just looked here from afar. She couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, there was a big cat, otherwise they would never be able to get out of the forest.
Wait! Shi Xia suddenly thought of the place where she met Niu Niu before, which was deep in the forest. Although Niu Niu was embarrassed, she was not injured. The big cat was not trying to scare her on purpose, but was protecting her all the way, right?
It turned out to be a proud cat. Shi Xia couldn't help but go with the hair on its back and decided to add another dried fish to it.
The big cat flew for nearly two hours before flying out of the forest. He pointed her in the direction with his tail, and then jumped back into the forest with the dried fish in his mouth.
Shi Xia led Niu Niu along the direction of the big cat and climbed a small hill in front. Sure enough, an ancient city could be seen in the distance. In order to speed up, Shi Xia directly carried Niu Niu and turned into the path next to him, and headed towards the ancient city.
The city looked close, but she walked for nearly an hour, and her feet became weak before she saw the word "Longcheng" on the city gate. It was very lively outside the city, and there were many people coming in and out. Everyone looked excited.
Shi Xia put Niu Niu down, "Niu Niu, have you agreed with Xuan Lin where to stay?"
Niu Niu didn't answer, but she was very insecure and held tightly on the corner of her clothes. She seemed to be less talkative than when she came half a year ago.
It seems that I can’t ask anything like this. Longcheng looks quite big. Where can she find someone to go?
"Don't worry, let's go to the city first." Shi Xia took Niu Niu's hand and entered the city.
There were more people after entering the city. At first glance, the streets and alleys were full of figures. Shi Xia thought that he would have to waste some effort to find Xuan Lin. But who knew that just after entering the city, Niu Niu suddenly shouted, let go and chased forward.
"elder brother……"
No, I found it so soon. Shi Xia hurriedly followed him. Niu Niu looked straight at the boy who was buying buns in front of him, but hesitated and did not come forward to recognize him immediately.
"Xuan Lin." Shi Xia couldn't help but shout.
The boy who bought buns turned around and it was really him!
Xuan Lin looked around first, and saw Niu Niu behind him. His hands trembled and almost grabbed the bun in his hand. "Niu'er, why are you..." His face changed. Then he saw Shi Xia following behind him, and suddenly opened his eyes wide, "You... are you."
"Xuan Lin, long time no see." Shi Xia greeted with a smile.
Xuan Lin then came to his senses and smiled politely, "It turns out that he is his benefactor. I didn't expect to see you here."
"I didn't expect that I could pick up your sister again." Shi Xia picked up Niu Niu on the ground and stuffed it directly into his arms. He said with some anger, "Why are you so careless? You can even lose your sister, and you even lost it twice."
Xuan Lin quickly took it, his face turned pale, and he nodded hurriedly, "What my benefactor taught me is that it was Xuan Lin's negligence. I have been looking for her everywhere these days, and I am almost in a hurry. Fortunately, I have a benefactor, so I am very grateful."
He put down Niu Niu, bowed respectfully to her, and was about to kneel down. Shi Xia quickly grabbed it, "Okay, okay, I'm just a simple task. You should pay attention next time."
Xuan Lin nodded quickly and then squatted down and pulled Niu Niu to look at her, "Niuer, how are you? Is anyone injured?"
Niu Niu didn't answer, but her head was lowered.
"She probably was frightened." Shi Xia said the story of her being chased by the big cat in the forest. "That big cat is a spirit beast. It was not intentionally trying to scare her, but was protecting her along the way. Otherwise, there would be many monsters in the forest and she would not be able to go there. Niu Niu is still young, so she was scared this time. You have to enlighten her."
"What my benefactor said." Xuan Lin responded quickly and repeatedly promised her that she would look down on Niu Niu. After thanking her, she then thanked her again and again, then picked up Niu Niu who had been bowing her head and not talking, and said goodbye and left.
Shi Xia also breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the direction where the two left, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in her heart. She always felt that there was something strange about Xuan Lin that she saw this time.
If you want to talk about where to blame, it is probably his attitude. I always feel that although he was anxious about Niu Niu, the first thing he thought of apologizing to her was to do was not to check if Niu Niu was fine. It was completely different from what he looked like when he was so excited that he almost cried half a year ago.
When I think about it, not only did Xuan Lin lose a lot of weight last time, but even his clothes seemed to be much worn. He used to look like a noble young man, but now he is much more ordinary. His face is a little more haggard.
Shi Xia couldn't help but take a look again. Although he was holding a child, Xuan Lin walked very fast. I wonder if it was an illusion, it would be a bit like running away in panic. And that direction, isn't it the way out of the city? Didn't he come to Longcheng to cultivate immortality?
