Free Wild 28
Living in the mountains for a long time feels like no time.
Only when the maple leaves turn red do I realize that it is already deep autumn.
Under the cliff, three seals flashed.
Ning Ren sat cross-legged on the bed, his mind completely immersed in the seals.
The double-eyed monster was surrounded by more and more three-colored needles day by day, which kept piercing its eyeballs.
Ning Ren has become immune to its screams.
"Damn...%*￥..."
A hoarse and strange voice came into my heart.
While reinforcing the seal, Ning Ren was surprised: "Huh? Learned to talk?" His tone was as if he saw a dog speaking human language.
Tian Feng: "You can't stop it... This place has no gods, faith is scattered, and there's no one to absorb faith and protect living beings... Sooner or later... it will be devoured..."
Ning Ren: "Do the needles taste good?"
Tianfeng: ...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"
"When I get out, I'll kill you first! This weird thing that sealed me up, damn it..."
"Turn you into... a slave...!"
This guy was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly. I don't know how he learned the language of this world.
Ning Ren: "Speaking of gods, I think, based on your knowledge, you don't even know how to cultivate a god."
"Hmph!" Tian Feng said, "True gods grow up alone. This world's Heavenly Dao consciousness is so unlucky. After cultivating several generations of living beings, no god has been born."
It's almost the same as not saying anything.
Ning Ren felt a headache.
Since there was no way to cultivate a divine spirit, there was no permanent solution to the crack in the sky. Did he have to purchase a miracle to save the world every time to resolve it?
The original form of the sky crack was different from the later ones. It fell directly from the sky and has been restrained by him until now, without showing any uncontrollable danger.
Tian Feng reacted, "You, are trying to trick me!"
It was extremely angry and attacked the junction of the three seals frantically.
Ning Ren pressed his fingers together and said, "You are not honest."
at the same time.
Under the cliff, not far from the sealed crack in the sky.
A staggering figure fell to the ground. He was only as tall as an adult's arm, his body covered in blue scales that were oozing blood, and his eyes were filled with gloom and fear.
Yu An after his official transformation.
A few days after the Red Star appeared, he began to transform.
Guhuo Bird was not at home that day, and he couldn't help but emit blue light all over his body. But maybe it was because he didn't have enough energy when he transformed, the blue light spread for a while and then suddenly disappeared.
A half-human, half-fish monster appeared at the edge of the pool.
Yu An, feeling nervous, stretched his head to look in front of the pond and was completely stunned.
The fish mouth, gills, and fins are all there, and the whole face is very strange. His hands are in the shape of a human, but are covered with blue scales. The toes of one foot are a fish tail, while the toes of the other foot are human-shaped.
He suddenly covered his face and tried desperately to change back, but failed after trying several times.
The benefactor who was left at home by the Guhuo Bird seemed to have heard the noise and wanted to come out to see what was happening. But how could he be seen by his benefactor in this state?
——Even though, it was just a substitute left by the benefactor, connected to the benefactor's consciousness.
Yu An knew that the person accompanying the Guhuo Bird now was not his real benefactor. He had seen him on the night when his benefactor suddenly grew bigger. His benefactor could hear his thoughts, but a substitute could not.
Little Blue Fish knew that Ning Ren liked beautiful things.
He had transformed into such an ugly form that he was afraid of being seen by his benefactor, so he left the ancient tree in a hurry without even saying goodbye.
After leaving, I met people from the Yanyun tribe who were moving out.
Yu An ran into someone head-on and was spat on several times in disgust. "It smells so fishy." After seeing Yu An's face clearly, the person stepped back and said, "What a thing! It's so ugly."
He quickly bowed and apologized, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I, I was going to a place with blue water. I didn't mean for you to see me!"
The voices of children aged seven or eight are childish, but they are as sweet as jade falling into the starry sky.
He found a corner to hide so that these people could not see him, and covered his face with his hands.
In fact, different family groups naturally have different aesthetic tastes, but when it comes to transformation, their aesthetic tastes are more inclined towards pure humanity.
Most of the people along the riverbank were intelligent, humanoid, and there was no such thing as failure in transformation. Yu'an, on the other hand, had originally been a small, intelligent blue fish. His transformation had come suddenly, and without guidance, he had become this half-human, half-fish form.
Someone said doubtfully, "Such an ugly appearance, is it caused by the Red Star monster falling?... Some of you have seen the animals in the forest that were affected by the Red Star falling. So..."
Yu An didn't hear the mumbling sound clearly.
But a few minutes later, the place where he was hiding was broken open with great force, and he was pulled up, and then thrown to the ground in a daze.
He curled up in pain.
When he opened his eyes, all he saw were feet surrounding him and dust flying on the ground.
Yu An huddled together in fear, "I'm sorry, I won't hide here, I'm sorry... ah!"
The people around him started punching and kicking him without saying a word.
"You're right, this thing is weird. Don't tell me it's really a contaminated monster."
"It's better to kill him."
"We'd rather kill three thousand than let them go. This can be considered our final contribution to the riverbank before we leave."
"He's alone, without a tribe, so it's really out of place for him to appear here."
"...Wait a minute, what's falling out of this ugly thing's eyes?"
Someone picked it up.
It was a crystal pearl, emitting a light blue light in the sunlight, mysterious and elegant.
"What's that thing that fell out of his eye? It's a beautiful bead."
"There are also here, and here too...are these his tears?"
"It's a monster indeed... I've never seen any other race shed tears that look like pearls."
"It looks very similar to pearls, but much more beautiful than pearls."
While they were observing something, Yu An seized the opportunity, crawled out, jumped into the river, and did not show up for a long time.
He dared to come out only after those people had left.
He felt extremely aggrieved.
He had no idea what those people were talking about.
Yu An felt that he was ugly, but he was a good little fish and he had never hurt anyone.
He appeared along the river bank in a daze and was almost caught and scaled by Xiaohong. Later, after Ning Ren asked him to come, the only people he met every day were Guhuo Bird and Ning Ren.
Yu An's world is simple and happy.
He had never faced malice so directly.
The news that an ugly monster appeared along the river bank spread from the Yanyun tribe, and the monster's tears would turn into beautiful beads.
For a moment, many people took note of this incident. They were worried that the ugly monster was brought by Chixing, and wanted to nip the hidden danger in the bud. They also wanted to see what beads that were more beautiful than pearls looked like.
Every time Yu An was found, he was beaten because those people wanted to see the pearls he dropped because of his crying in pain before he died.
The dark days of hiding and being beaten lasted for two months. The little blue fish had just transformed and his mind had not yet fully developed, but he had already experienced hell.
He ran farther and farther until he reached this forest.
Yu An fell to the ground, breathing rapidly. In order to hide, he had not drunk water for a long time, which was fatal for a small fish with weak mental strength and almost no attack power.
The little blue fish tried hard to catch a drop of water falling from the leaves, but half of its body fell on the edge of the sealing seal.
He quickly moved himself up, and a wisp of black air penetrated into his body through the soles of his feet.
A whispering voice immediately sounded in Yu An's heart.
'I know you hate.'
'Those foolish people who abused and trampled on you...'
'Give me your body, and I will give you strength.'
Yu An cried, "I'm all thirsty and hallucinating."
He looked at the water droplets on the leaves that were about to fall, and a strange rage rose in his heart. The voice that seemed to be the voice in his heart started again, "Damn water droplets, they are doing this on purpose. I'm so thirsty, and they won't fall down. Kill this forest and make all the water droplets disappear from now on!"
Yu An was horrified: "No, no, no!"
How could he think that?!
The ugly little fish lay on the ground and licked a drop of dew on a blade of grass.
He said to himself, "If you can't eat from trees, eat from grass."
Tian Feng: “……?”
Yu An licked all the way up, occasionally missing one or two drops, and the water droplets fell to the ground. He got a mouthful of dirt in his mouth, but he didn't care.
He found a small snail in the grass that was crawling forward like him. The little snail dived into the next crystal water droplet he set his sights on.
The strange voice in his mind resounded: "Damn snail, you actually contaminated the water droplets that saved my life. I can crush you to death with just one force!"
Yu An became even more frightened.
"How could I think like that!"
He quickly avoided the little snail, wanting to eat more dewdrops and save up his strength to go where he wanted to go.
But for some reason, most of the creatures around the deep pit disappeared, and when the sun came out, the cool sunlight turned into a deadly poison.
Yu An's body began to crack.
There was a drop of water on the grass in front of him. He stretched out his hand with difficulty to reach it, but found that the drop of water was just an illusion caused by his thirst.
He slammed his hands lightly on the ground, and tried to keep his eyes wide open, not wanting to close them.
If he closed his eyes, he would surely die.
His vision gradually blurred, and he saw a slender figure in white clothes walking down the mountain against the light.
The figure stopped in front of him and squatted down.
Yu An saw the tips of his shoes and the neat and tidy hem of his clothes.
The hands pressed on his wrists and then picked him up.
He called out softly in his heart: "...Benefactor?"
The benefactor's voice fell steadily and peacefully into his ears:
"I saved you again. You, little fish, must live well to repay me for saving my life."
So Yu An tried hard to hide his face and finally fell into a coma with peace of mind.
-
Ning Ren held Yu An and teleported back to the cliff on the top of the mountain.
The magnolia has grown a lot taller and has become a tall and straight small tree.
He directly put Yu An into the stone tank under the magnolia tree, and then began to carefully check Yu An's physical condition.
The little fish, when it turned into a human form, was only as long as his arm. At this moment, it covered its face and sank to the bottom of the water, falling into a coma.
There are countless external injuries, and even more internal injuries.
He had become a doctor after years of illness, so he found some herbs for external application, crushed them and applied them to the little blue fish.
After doing all this, Ning Ren moved a rocking chair here, placed it next to the stone vat, and slept under a quilt for the whole afternoon.
His life had been like this for the past two months, extremely dull. Apart from reinforcing the seal and reducing the power of the Sky Crack every day, he used sleep to preserve his memories.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but he forgets things more slowly when he’s asleep.
He sensed it the moment the little blue fish touched the sealing seal, and then went down to check. When he saw it for the first time, Ning Ren felt it was unfamiliar.
He squatted down and thought carefully for a while, sensing the familiar scent of the little blue fish, and then he found a touch of blue in his vague memory.
At night, Ning Ren woke up and Yu An also woke up.
He buried his head deep in the water tank.
He just blew bubbles and didn't dare to look up to see Ning Ren.
Ning Ren: "Come out and eat."
Yu An: "A Yuan, I'm too ugly. You...you like beautiful things. I know I disgust you."
Ning Ren smiled and said, "If I were ugly, would you hate me?"
Yu An said anxiously: "No, no! Yuan is my benefactor, and also my um... friend."
Ning Ren: "So why do I hate you?"
Yu An was quiet for a long time before slowly poking his head out of the water, his hands clinging to the edge of the tank. Ning Ren's eyes were calm as he handed him a few pieces of fruit.
Yu An ate it in small bites. “Yes… Aunt Ye Lu bought it for my benefactor’s stand-in at the market a few days ago. I really wanted to eat it, but your stand-in, Yuan, can’t hear me.”
He or his benefactor A Yuan is called back and forth.
Ning Ren: "I haven't fully investigated the situation on Chixing yet, so I don't allow them to come near the forest. They prepared supplies for me and placed them at the foot of the mountain. I go to get them every three days."
"I noticed you weren't in the pool and asked Mom to go look for you. How did you suddenly transform and become like this?"
Yu An blushed.
"Because, because I thought my benefactor would hate me for being so ugly, I didn't dare let you see me."
He glanced at Ning Ren cautiously and found that there was no disgust or disdain on his benefactor's face, so he raised his voice a little.
Yu An: "I don't know how I transformed. I dreamed of a blue river that stretched as far as the eye could see. It was a blue even more beautiful than my scales."
His eyes were filled with longing and yearning. "I know it now. That's where I came from, and that's where I must go." Yu An's eyes sparkled. "A Yuan, do you know where that is?"
A blue river that stretches as far as the eye can see...
Ning Ren smiled and said, "That's called the sea."
"Come to think of it, I haven't seen it either." He had never seen the vast ocean before. He was always in a hurry, cherishing every fate in his countdown life.
His gaze passed through the evening mist swirling in the mountains and fell on the interior of an ancient tree.
Inside, a cute baby is lying on the table, watching his mother sewing clothes.
The recipes and wooden tool drawings for weaving silk and linen that Ning Ren gave out were already enough to produce clothes made of new materials. Dealing with these things was easier for my mother than dealing with animal skins, and her skills improved day by day.
"The sea..."
Ever since I became self-aware, I have felt that the river was the largest current. The little blue fish that lived in a small pond after being rescued was stunned by this word.
Just saying it makes me feel so awesome!
"I must go!" Yu An said firmly, "A Yuan, do you want to go see the sea?"
Ning Ren: "Me? I guess I don't have a chance."
Yu An: "How could that be? You are so amazing."
He was trapped in the fish pond. Apart from seeing Ning Ren grow up on the night, he didn't know what Ning Ren had done, nor did he understand why his benefactor would place a substitute next to his mother.
If the benefactor doesn't tell him, he won't ask.
Ning Ren: "I want to stay and do something. I won't leave until I finish it."
"...Is that so," Yu An hesitated, "Then, I'll stay and help you. Although I don't have much ability, but, but I should still be of some use..."
Ning Ren called the system's navigation and positioning in his mind, and found that the nearest sea area was tens of thousands of miles away.
The current continent is not divided into four parts, but is collectively called the Central Region. The ocean is located around the continent.
Yu An couldn't possibly get there in this state.
He thought for a moment and said, "Then you stay and help me. I'll teach you some self-defense skills. When you've learned them well, I'll tell you how to navigate the sea."
Yu An jumped up: "Okay!"
After just one jump, he immediately shrank back into the water, leaving only the tip of his head exposed.
Ning Ren: "Not ugly."
Yu An blew a bubble in the water, revealing half of his face.
Bubbles emerged from the water and burst on the leaves, making the leaves of the magnolia rustle.
Ning Ren lay back in the rocking chair and stretched his hands towards the sky.
He hadn't asked about the situation along the river for the past two months, so he wasn't sure. But how long could such peaceful days last?
