Chapter 182 New Race Rolling Sheep
The staff at the "Book Travel" Experience Hall had a dull attitude at first, but when they found out that Liu Meilan was bringing a blind child, her tone softened.
Liu Meilan was still looking at the LCD screen to decide which book to choose.
They had booked tickets for seven days during the Spring Festival holiday, and had already tried every attraction available at the park in the first five days. She was particularly pleased with the Fantasy Ranch and Sky Aquarium.
It’s not that the other activities are not fun, but my daughter is blind. No matter how fun they are, she can only stare blankly with her eyes wide open. Every time Liu Meilan sees her daughter groping in confusion, her heart aches.
The Fantasy Ranch is different from the Sky Aquarium. The clouds at the ranch are soft and bouncy. My daughter loves touching them and rolling around in them without getting hurt. The puffins are very friendly and the ground dragons are very honest. My daughter has always loved animals and was visibly happy when she touched them.
There is also the Sky Aquarium. Although my daughter couldn’t do much on the Cloud Island, she really enjoyed swimming in the aquarium and touching the fish.
Seeing her daughter happy, Liu Meilan feels extremely satisfied.
The "Book Tour" experience hall has a wide selection of books. Liu Meilan was hesitating between the mythology and poetry collections when she heard the staff say, "Hello, ma'am. I suggest you choose the fairy tale immersion mode."
Liu Meilan was stunned and said, "I don't have any points."
The private trading of points among Fantasy Park visitors only began after the "Book Tour" experience center opened during the Spring Festival. Liu Meilan hadn't been browsing forums or online for a while, so she had no idea about it. The few points she'd earned from killing monsters in the park over the past two days were enough to buy her daughter a Dryad hand-kneading Pokémon, but not much else.
The staff member replied, "According to our park's regulations, there are discounts for special groups. You can bring this child with you and enter the park for free with half the admission fee."
"Really? Thank you!" Liu Meilan was overjoyed. Her daughter was blind, but she had never been shy about it, wanting to prevent her from developing a sense of inferiority and timidity due to her physical condition. So, without hesitation, she said, "Really? Come on, thank you, Auntie."
Although Liu Zhenzhen was blind, her ears were naturally very sensitive. Upon hearing this, she turned towards the direction of the sound coming from the counter and said sweetly, "Thank you, sister."
The female staff member smiled and said, "I'm about the same age as your mother, so call me Auntie."
Liu Zhenzhen smiled again, "Thank you, Auntie."
Liu Meilan paid the ticket fee, held her daughter's hand, and walked into the experience channel.
Liu Meilan had never been to a fantasy haunted house, so she didn't know how the "Book Travel" experience hall worked. She thought there would be a holographic experience cabin like the one described in novels, and she could only experience it after lying down in it. She didn't expect that after she walked in, it was all white. When she came to her senses, a virtual screen suddenly unfolded in front of her.
Based on the staff's suggestion, Liu Meilan chose the fairy tale "Curious Rolling Sheep".
The story is summarized as follows: A long time ago, there was a strange race. They were round like a small coal ball, with a pair of small claws hidden in their fluffy fur. The way they moved was to jump and roll around like balls, and the sound they made was like the bleating of lambs, so they were called rolling sheep.
The Rolling Sheep are a naturally curious species, always striving to explore the unknown world, fearless even in the face of danger. They can survive in many harsh environments, making them a resilient species.
If you meet them and are willing to express your friendliness to them, you can gain the friendship or gifts of the rolling sheep (＾Ｕ＾)ノ~ＹＯ.
…
Liu Meilan originally thought it would be a household name like "The Little Mermaid" or "Snow White", but she didn't expect it to be a fairy tale she had never seen before. She heard that the "Book Tour" experience hall in the park contained books without copyright disputes, so she thought it was a niche fairy tale whose copyright had expired.
Because it is in immersive mode, the virtual screen in front of you pops up with characters for selection.
There are members of the rolling sheep family, the rolling sheep's natural enemy, the hyena, the villagers on the farm, and so on.
Liu Meilan thought that since her daughter couldn't see, it would be better for her to choose the role of a villager. But after she said her choice, Liu Zhenzhen immediately said, "Rolling sheep! Mom, I want to be a rolling sheep!"
Liu Meilan's eyes softened. "Why?"
Liu Zhenzhen said without hesitation: "Because the rolling sheep can roll around, there is no fear of falling or getting hurt. I want my mother to play with me as much as she wants!"
Liu Meilan's eyes felt sore when she heard the first sentence, but when she heard the second sentence, she unconsciously curled her lips and said, "Okay, then we'll choose the rolling sheep. I'll be the rolling sheep mother, and you'll be the rolling sheep baby."
Who knew Liu Zhenzhen would not agree, "No, no, no, I want to be the mother and you be the baby."
Liu Meilan had no choice but to listen to her.
After selecting the character, ripples appeared on the virtual screen in front of her. Looking at the ripples, Liu Meilan suddenly felt dazed and her vision became a little blurred. When the world became clear again, she was stunned.
What appeared before her was a beautiful scenery like an oil painting.
The sky was as blue as a clear sky, with a few clouds resting on the green mountains in the distance. As the view narrowed, a tall windmill was creaking as it turned. The wind brought by the blades blew the shallow grass and deep flowers in front of it. A few foxtails bounced a few times and swayed in the grass like a naughty child.
Dandelions fly leisurely on the wind, the reeds by the river sway with thin floating catkins, and the wind seems to be filled with a sleep-inducing scent.
In such scenery and atmosphere, Liu Meilan felt that her soul was floating, as if she would fall asleep in the next second because of the comfort.
However, the next second, Liu Zhenzhen's trembling voice woke her up, "Mom, Mom..."
Liu Meilan came back to her senses and remembered that she was visiting the experience center and she still had to take care of her daughter.
Turning her head, she was stunned again. Her daughter, Liu Zhenzhen, was no longer beside her. Instead, there was a round, black ball of fur, like a coal ball. In front of this ball of fur, two large black eyes were embedded, almost taking up half of the front. The pupils were deep, bright, large, and round, so that the whites of the eyes were almost a thin white edge.
Liu Meilan stared at it blankly, her eyes trembling. A strange intuition told her that this was her daughter Liu Zhenzhen!
After they chose the role of the rolling sheep, they really became rolling sheep when they came in!
What’s even more bizarre is that her daughter can actually see!
Liu Meilan saw her own reflection in those big eyes, and it turned out to be a rolling sheep that was even smaller than Liu Zhenzhen!
The mother and daughter were shocked and excited. They wanted to hug each other, but found that the sheep had no hands, so they could only rub against each other. However, even so, they both felt a strong sense of happiness.
"Let's go! Mommy will take you to see the scenery!"
"Look, this is grass, this is a flower, this is soil, and that is a windmill..."
"This is green... this is red, this is black... the sky is..."
Liu Zhenzhen excitedly recited, "The sky is blue!"
Liu Meilan laughed, "Yes, the sky is blue, the clouds are white, you see, this is what the world looks like!"
Liu Zhenzhen looked around with her huge eyes, not blinking at all, as if she wanted to take in all the scenery in the world at once. "Mom, is the world outside like this too?"
Liu Meilan: "Yes, almost."
Liu Zhenzhen gasped in shock, her words incoherent with excitement, "Mom, mom, I've fantasized about this many times. It's so beautiful. The world is even more beautiful than I imagined."
Hearing this, Liu Meilan couldn't help feeling sad, but before she could respond, her daughter had already skipped away into the distance, and Liu Meilan hurried to catch up.
Due to the role reversal, Liu Meilan is now smaller than Liu Zhenzhen.
The two black fur balls rolled around on the grass laughing, jumped and played by the river to drink water, competed with each other to jump and hit the dandelions in the air, rolled into a huge flower together and inhaled a nose full of pollen, and then sneezed together because of the fragrance.
Soon it started to rain. Liu Zhenzhen, wearing a big lotus leaf hat, led Liu Meilan and the fur ball to hide in a small cave. "I am your mother now. I will take care of you."
Liu Meilan said in a daze: "Okay."
When the rain stopped dripping, they went to the river together to catch fish. Although the name of the sheep is "sheep", it is a carnivore. It has a big mouth under its eyes and a mouthful of sharp teeth, which can help it bite its prey accurately in the water. Although the hair on its body is fluffy and soft, it is very waterproof. After entering the water and shaking off, the whole body will be dry again.
They played and rolled around on the grass. When they were sleepy, they lay down and slept on the ground. When they woke up, they chased bees and butterflies together. When they were tired, they watched the sunset together. The two fur balls, one big and one small, were like two free dandelions, taking root wherever they got tired of floating.
Occasionally, they would be hunted by their natural enemies, hyenas. Fortunately, the experience in the park was excellent, and villagers from the farm showed up in time to help them drive away the hyenas. At night, they rested in the villagers' houses and watched humans feed them and make their beds from a whole new perspective.
After the mother and daughter became two fur balls, they seemed to have returned to their infancy, playing and making noises together, and enjoying the care of adults together.
They are experiencing reality, but it also seems like they are experiencing an exceptionally sweet dream. After waking up, there is a better future waiting for them...
