Not long after Ye Xin left the big tree, he heard some movement coming from the front.
She scanned over with her mental power and unexpectedly discovered that there was a person hiding in the bushes.
The man was wearing tattered clothes, with his hair loose and squatting barefoot in the grass, his eyes fixed in the direction of Ye Xin.
Ye Xin walked to the edge of the bushes and glanced at the child with a frightened look on his face. Could this be the child in the tree hole?
She put on a harmless smile and held up the thing in her hand to Gui Xiaohua, "Is this yours?"
Gui Xiaohua was startled, hugged her trembling body, and looked at her warily.
Seeing that the person in front of her did not respond, Ye Xin took the thing in her hand to Gui Xiaohua and asked again.
"Is this yours?"
Perhaps because she did not sense any malice from Ye Xin, Gui Xiaohua slowly let down her guard. She shifted her gaze away from Ye Xin's face and looked at the thing in front of her.
She was stunned when she saw what was in her hand. The shoes in his hand were the ones she had lost a few days ago.
She stretched out her bony little hand and took the black cloth shoe from Ye Xin, "It's mine, but how did you know?" Gui Xiaohua looked at Ye Xin, and the guard that she had let down before rose again.
Hearing her slightly childish voice, Ye Xin's eyes flashed with surprise. Is this actually a girl?
"I found it by a stream. What brought you to the middle of the forest?"
She saw that the little girl's clothes didn't look like she lived in the forest. Although her clothes were dirty, she spoke clearly and articulately, obviously living in the human world.
Suddenly appearing here, was it man-made or an accident?
Gui Xiaohua held the cloth shoes in her hand, not knowing whether she should tell the truth.
If this sister is in cahoots with those people, will she be caught again if she tells them?
She glanced at Ye Xin inconspicuously, but...this sister is so beautiful, she should be trustworthy!
Ye Xin sensed Gui Xiaohua's fear, sighed, and took out a bag of pastries and handed it to her. "I bought this at the pastry shop. Take it and eat it! Also, I'm not a bad person."
She placed the pastry in her hand in front of Gui Xiaohua, shook her head, turned around and walked away.
It’s fine if you don’t believe her, but does she really look like a bad person?
Gui Xiaohua was sitting on the ground, stunned by the sudden appearance of the pastries. What did she see? Something appeared out of thin air in this sister's hand. Could she be a god?
When she came to her senses, she saw that the fairy in front of her had already gone far away. She panicked and grabbed the cakes on the ground and chased after her.
"Sister Fairy, Sister Fairy, please save me, please save me!" Gui Xiaohua desperately chased after Ye Xin. She rushed to Ye Xin, her legs softened, and she knelt down. "Sister Fairy, please save me, I want to go home."
She looked at Ye Xin, big tears sliding down her thin little face. She prayed, with a strong desire to survive in her eyes.
Ye Xin stopped and glanced down at the crying little girl. "If you want me to save you, you have to tell me your name! And where are you from? Why are you here?" She said, and took out a square handkerchief and threw it to Gui Xiaohua. "Here, wipe it first. You're almost as wet as a coal miner."
Gui Xiaohua hurriedly caught the handkerchief thrown to her. She touched the soft cloth in her hand, stopped crying, and obediently wiped the stains off her face.
She was afraid that Ye Xin would misunderstand her again, so she first explained what happened before, "Fairy Sister, I didn't mean to offend you just now. It's because those monsters often transform into human forms. I just thought they were coming to catch me again, so I didn't dare to believe you."
Gui Xiaohua didn't get to the point for a long time, and Ye Xin was a little annoyed. She narrowed her eyes slightly and gradually became a little impatient.
"Tsk, get to the point."
Gui Xiaohua paused, then hurriedly said her name, "Fairy Sister, my name is Gui Xiaohua, my home is in Yuanqiao Town, and I was captured here by a monster."
Yuanqiao Town, why does this sound familiar? Suddenly, a small town appeared in Ye Xin's mind. "Is there a big osmanthus tree at the entrance of the Yuanqiao Town you mentioned?"
Gui Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and she stood up excitedly, "Fairy Sister, that's Yuanqiao Town. Have you been there before?"
Ye Xin didn't comment, she nodded and agreed with Gui Xiaohua's words.
"What about the monsters you mentioned? How many are there and what do they look like?"
Gui Xiaohua reminisced, counting on her fingers as she listed the characteristics of the monsters she had memorized. "I don't know how many there were. It was so dark there, and I couldn't always count them. But I do know the largest one had three arms, green skin, and a bunch of big bumps on its back."
She knocked her head and tried to think carefully about what details she might have overlooked.
"And then?" Ye Xin motioned Gui Xiaohua to continue. She took out a jade plate and used her finger as a pen to draw the appearance of the monster while listening.
"Then, the eyes on the top of its head were as big as my fist, and it walked by hopping and making croaking sounds."
Ye Xin stopped, raised her head and turned the jade plate in her hand, "Is it like this?" She pointed at the green toad on the jade plate.
Gui Xiaohua took a closer look and saw that the painting on the jade plate was an enlarged toad. "Yes, that's it, Fairy Sister, it's the monster that caught me." She was so excited that she pointed at the toad on the jade plate and screamed.
"Then did you hear what it wanted to do when it caught you?" Ye Xin retracted the jade plate and scanned Gui Xiaohua from inside to outside.
She knew what kind of monster it was, a transformed eighth-level green toad, but why would it run to the human world to catch children? Don’t the spiritualists nearby know this?
"Sister Fairy, the monster not only captured me, it also captured many children in our town, and even people I don't know."
Gui Xiaohua was able to run away thanks to the protection of her companions. If it weren't for them, she might have been killed by the monster long ago.
However, she disappointed her companions. She could not escape from the forest by herself.
She thought of her companions, and with a determined heart, she knelt down in front of Ye Xin again, "Fairy Sister, please go and save them! I promised them that I would go get help."
Ye Xin took a few deep breaths and suppressed the murderous intent in her heart, "I will, I will go to save them." She gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush to the green toad's nest right now.
Damn it, the monster actually started doing the business of human traffickers. Is it because it is tired of living?
Time was running out, so Ye Xin stopped thinking about looking for the teleportation array. She selected a spatial point here, grabbed Gui Xiaohua and flew into the air.
“Ah~”
Gui Xiaohua suddenly flew into the air, her heart beating wildly. She grabbed Ye Xin's wrist tightly, closed her eyes and dared not look at her feet.
Ye Xin's voice was as cold as ice. Her eyes were grim as she casually set up a barrier around her.
"Open your eyes and show me the way."
