Chapter 127 Something Happened to the Gold Nugget
Most of them were unfamiliar faces, and she didn't recognize them very well.
Just when he was about to pull the head brother aside to ask him, something strange happened.
Suddenly, a thin figure rushed towards her like an arrow shot from a bow, with a shrill cry!
“Wow… my little ancestor.”
He was a young man with a handsome face, but at this moment he was crying and his expression was extremely exaggerated, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Xiaobai was startled, and he tiptoed and slid half a step to the side like a ghost, narrowly avoiding the escape.
This reaction speed is so fast that it doesn’t seem like that of a three-year-old baby.
She tilted her head, her big round eyes full of vigilance and confusion, and asked in a baby voice, "Who are you? Why are you crying and bumping into me?"
She was sure that she didn't know this weirdo.
Seeing that his attack was in vain, the handsome man cried even harder, beating his chest and stamping his feet: "Little ancestor, you have no conscience. You actually forgot about me."
He pointed at Xiao Bai and accused her, "You left and didn't come back. Now that you're back, you don't even recognize me."
"Wow, wow, wow, I've been waiting for you so long, my dear."
Xiaobai was completely confused, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed and his mouth was pursed into a straight line.
She dared to swear on the Book of Heaven that she absolutely, absolutely did not know the man in front of her who was crying as if his parents had died.
Fan Wuzhi frowned, the gentle smile on his face had long disappeared, replaced by a hint of impatience.
He took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and with a "pop", he pushed the still crying man away, not too hard but very firmly.
"Have you had enough of the trouble?" Fan Wuzhi's voice was slightly cold.
Then he turned to Xiao Bai, his tone instantly became gentle again, and he explained with a bit of helplessness: "Junior Sister, ignore him."
"This is our Qingling Sect's guardian beast, Long Aotian, Uncle Long."
"I got a great opportunity a few days ago and transformed myself into a human."
noob:"……"
Her little mouth slowly opened into an "O" shape, and she stared at the handsome man in disbelief, looking him up and down several times.
"Long Aotian?"
The sound of milk rising octave.
"You are, Aotian?"
She remembered it. It was the proud and plump big white goose that clucked every day in the back hills. But she pointed her trembling little finger at the man, her tone full of shock: "My goodness, why are you hairless?"
"You, wasn't there a plump white goose in front of you? How come you became so thin after the transformation? Like a bamboo pole."
These words were like a sharp arrow, accurately piercing Long Aotian's heart.
His crying stopped abruptly, and his face even turned a suspiciously faint red.
He suddenly straightened his unimpressive chest and argued with his neck stiff, "Tsk, what do you know about aesthetics? I look handsome like this."
"I am thin and graceful, and when I put on the robes, I look like an immortal. Do you understand?"
He tried to strike a cool pose, but his skinny body and tear-stained face made him look a little funny.
Xiaobai blinked, as if seriously considering the credibility of his words.
After a moment, she nodded reluctantly: "Okay, okay, thinner... that's fine."
After all, it is our own sacred beast, so we should still give it some face.
A brilliant smile immediately broke out on her face, and she praised sincerely, "But Aotian, you are really amazing. You have even transformed. You are really promising.
More majestic than before.”
After receiving Xiaobai's praise, Long Aotian immediately became proud and his chin almost reached the sky.
After praising Long Aotian, Xiaobai immediately thought of another friend and asked hurriedly, "By the way, Aotian, where is the gold nugget? Why isn't it with you?"
When mentioning the gold nuggets, Long Aotian's expression suddenly became solemn, and his smug look disappeared.
He moved closer to Xiaobai and lowered his voice and said, "Xiaobai, you are finally back. The gold nugget has been acting a little strange recently, and it looks listless. I was just waiting for you to come back and take a look at it."
He added, with a hint of taking credit: "Oh, and the black tortoise, I also took good care of it for you, and it has become much stronger."
At this moment, a man with a full beard and an unusually sturdy build who had been craning his neck all the time finally found an opportunity and tried to interrupt in a hurry: "Um, little..."
Xiaobai's attention was drawn to him and he looked at him with a hint of weirdness. The man looked unfamiliar and his aura was different from that of the Qingling Sect's disciples.
She ignored the man, pulled Fan Wuzhi's sleeve with her little hand, and said with her little face raised: "Master, you take Almu and..."
She paused, glanced at Long Aotian, who was pushed away by Fan Wuzhi and was looking at her eagerly, then looked at the burly man who tried to interrupt, and at a young man next to the man with a clearly different temperament and a gentle smile.
"And wait a minute, let's take the young master with us to settle down first." She pointed to the gentle young man next to her.
"I'll talk to Aotian for a few words and ask about the gold nuggets. I'll come to you guys in a bit."
Only then did Fan Wuzhi notice the young man with extraordinary temperament who had been standing quietly beside him, and he was stunned.
He frowned slightly and recognized the other person: "Master Qie from Xuanji Pavilion? Why are you here too?"
There was a hint of surprise in his tone, as well as a barely perceptible hint of fatigue. Lately, there had been more and more things and people involved in the sect.
The young man called Young Master Qie hurriedly bowed, with a gentle smile on his face, neither humble nor arrogant: "Master Fan, please wait, my master asked me to practice with Junior Sister Xiaobai in the future, and I am here to visit Brother Yan."
When he heard Yan Jinjin's name, a complex emotion flashed in Fan Wuzhi's eyes, as if he was relieved, but also with a bit of indescribable sadness and heartache.
He sighed softly and said, "Well, Xiao Jin... Oh, Young Master, thank you for your concern."
"If you want to take him out to relax, then take him to Lingxi Town, which is under the jurisdiction of our sect, at the foot of the mountain."
Fan Wuzhi's tone became more serious, and he warned: "Just remember, don't take him out of the Qingling Sect's territory."
Qie Manxing immediately responded respectfully: "Junior understands, and will not embarrass Sect Leader Fan. Thank you Sect Leader Fan."
He turned his gaze to the burly man beside him and asked him to come along.
Fan Wuzhi waved his hand, signaling them to do as they pleased, and then prepared to take the elders of the Juling Sect and Almu and the others to the guest house to settle down.
Xiaobai kept pulling Long Aotian's sleeve.
She urged in a baby voice: "Aotian, take me to see the gold nuggets."
Long Aotian was now in human form, and his movements were still a little stiff. Hearing this, he quickly nodded and bowed: "Hey, little ancestor, please come this way, please come this way."
He led Xiaobai towards the back mountain, taking big steps, his thin figure like a hurried compass.
Soon, the man and the goose arrived at a secluded cave in the back mountain with good spiritual energy.
This cave was originally a goose nest dug out by Long Aotian himself. After it was transformed and slightly tidied up, it looked quite presentable.
The stone bed in the cave is covered with a thick layer of century-old spiritual herbs, which exude a faint fragrance.
A golden, round, furry little animal was curled up on the magic grass mat, sleeping soundly.
Its breathing was weak, and even the golden sheen on its body had dimmed a lot.
The smug look on Long Aotian's face disappeared, replaced by worry. He walked over carefully and pushed gently: "Golden Nugget, wake up, Xiaobai is back to see you."
The golden little beast's eyelids trembled a few times with difficulty, and it finally opened a tiny crack.
When it saw Xiaobai, a faint light flashed in its eyes, and its voice was weak and exhausted, "Xiaobai...you, you are finally back..."
Before he finished speaking, as if he had exhausted all his strength, his head tilted and he fell into a deep sleep again.
No matter how Long Aotian shook it and called it, it didn't respond at all.
