"Like me?"
Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Ming in front of her with some surprise. She felt a little puzzled by what he said. What did it mean to be the same as her?
Looking at the looks the three people cast at her, Xiao Ming nodded again to confirm.
Yang Yu felt a little confused about this. The aura was the same as that of the white spider girl. Could it be that great god again?
Forget it, the four of them decided to go in and find Su Xiaoyu first...
Xiaobai took the lead and the four of them slowly entered the forest.
It was almost afternoon, and some weak sunlight was shining into the forest through the gaps between the leaves.
The warm smell of earth wafted through the air, and the forest at this moment, illuminated by the dim light, had a hazy beauty.
Pushing aside the dense branches and leaves that blocked their path, several figures slowly approached the depths of the forest...
"etc……"
Xiaobai and Xiao Ming stopped at the same time, turned their heads to look into the depths of the forest. Xiaobai narrowed his purple eyes, feeling the gradually approaching breath.
"It's coming towards us..."
Xiao Ming answered softly in the face of Yang Yu's puzzled look, and then he and Xiaobai looked up at the sky above the forest at the same time.
As the four of them went deeper, they found themselves in a vast ancient forest. There weren't many branches blocking their view below, but above them, the lush branches of the ancient trees obscured the sky, making it difficult to see what lay beyond the leaves.
The surroundings were dark, and the atmosphere in the air seemed to be suffocated by the branches and leaves that covered the sky.
Crash! ———
Behind the thick leaves, it seemed as if something was moving, and suddenly there was a shaking and a sound.
Xiaobai and the other three looked up at the sky warily. They could clearly feel that something was approaching them behind the leaves!
As the leaves continued to sway, the figure hiding behind them had already reached above the four people. Then it suddenly stopped, and the surroundings fell silent again.
In this dim environment, the atmosphere in the air began to grow eerie. It seemed as if something terrifying would leap out from behind the leaves at any moment and tear the four people below to pieces!
Compared to the three people beside him, Xiaobai appeared incredibly calm. He tilted his head slightly upward, gazing at the leaves above him. His violet eyes narrowed as he stared intently.
Hidden among the leaves was a figure. It seemed to sense Xiaobai's gaze and moved slightly, then met Xiaobai's gaze.
Those were a pair of eyes that looked very much like human eyes, with black pupils. But the strange thing was that underneath the black pupils, there seemed to be another pupil!
Because of the eye contact with Xiaobai, he seemed to be trembling with uneasiness, which made Xiaobai discover the abnormality of the other party.
It actually has two pairs of pupils! Although the large and small pupils overlap, it's hard to tell. However, as it trembles, it's clear that the two pairs of pupils are not moving at the same time!
Even the smaller pupils broke out of the edge of the large pupil, forming four strange pupils!
"Um?"
Xiaobai hesitated for a moment in some confusion, but the next moment, the figure retreated as if frightened.
The leaves shook, and then a fluttering sound was heard in the sky, and the figure gradually disappeared behind the dense leaves.
The forest returned to peace, and Xiao Ming slowly breathed a sigh of relief...
"It's gone..."
Xiao Ming patted Yang Yu, who was still on guard beside him, and felt the breath gradually fading away from the sky.
It seems that the other party is a flying creature...
Xiao Ming looked at Xiaobai, who had a calm expression. Although the danger of that aura was not as great as Xiaobai's, she could feel that the other party was not someone she and Yang Yu could deal with.
I don't know if it was scared away by Xiaobai, but now everything is fine...
"Let's go."
Xiaobai spoke calmly, and then led the three of them to search for another aura in the forest...
…………
In a relatively low forest, a group of small animals gathered. They squatted under the trees and looked up at the sky quietly.
This seemed to be a fruit forest. On the trunks of the trees, large, ripe red apples hung among the leaves, reflecting the light and giving off an alluring luster.
A soft buzzing sound came from the fruit tree in front of me. It was a large insect, flapping its wings, approaching a large apple.
Then it used its slender legs to grab the apple and pulled it hard. As a few leaves fell, the scene the big bug had expected did not occur.
Its mouth moved slightly, and then a little squirrel crawled over from the branch of the fruit tree.
The insect and the mouse seemed to be communicating with each other. Then the little squirrel grasped the branch beneath it, stuck its head out, and used its sharp teeth to bite off the root of the apple that was connected to the trunk.
The big bug was suddenly pressed down by the weight of the big apple, but it still flapped its wings stubbornly and frantically, and finally stabilized its body in the air.
Then he flew down the tree holding the big apple and came to the little girl below...
This little girl was Su Xiaoyu that Xiaobai and the others were looking for, but her condition did not look good at the moment.
The girl leaned against a tree trunk, her knees hugged as she sat on the ground. Her once lively eyes now stared blankly at the ground. The white feathers on her ears and her face were smudged with dirt. Her skirt was tattered, like a homeless child...
The big bug held the apple and dangled it in front of the girl for a while. She finally reacted and stretched out her hands in a daze to take the apple from the big bug.
The girl stared blankly at the red apple in her hand, her eyes gradually turned red, and tears began to slide down her cheeks again.
"Thank you, Xiaoguang..."
Su Xiaoyu murmured something in a daze, then buried her head in her knees, letting her tears wet her skirt.
Where is Mengmeng now... How is she doing...
Could it be... already dead...
Su Xiaoyu thought back to the time when she and Mengmeng lived together in the forest. She became increasingly sad, her body trembling constantly, and her sobs echoed through the woods...
Seeing the girl crying so hard, the big bug gently landed on her shoulder, its mouth moving non-stop as if to comfort her...
The little animals in front of her gathered around and stayed with the girl.
The arrival of this kind-hearted girl who could communicate with them brought life to this forest that had never seen the sun for years.
They lived together in the forest for a long time. In the boring forest, one could always hear the girl's innocent smile.
With the departure of the big fox Mengmeng, the rare warmth in this forest seemed to be taken away as well...
The girl cried all day long, and the animals didn't know how to comfort her. They could only organize themselves and look for some food to keep the girl alive.
After all, in the depths of this dense forest, for a frail little girl, even a fruit tree would be an insurmountable mountain...
Just as the girl was crying sadly, a noise suddenly came from the jungle ahead...
