The three-legged bear covered its eyes with its paws, trying hard to adapt to the light. After a long time, it finally adapted. The three-legged bear saw a long corridor in front of it, so it continued to walk forward. After walking a few hundred meters, the three-legged bear stopped.
Because there was no road ahead, it was a broken canyon. The location of the corridor was far away from the bottom of the valley. The three-legged bear looked at the wide canyon in front of him, and there was a voice in his heart saying to the three-legged bear: "Keep going forward, keep going forward, it's just ahead." The three-legged bear also felt that it was just ahead.
The three-legged bear looked at the ground under his feet and found that it was in a curve, so he gritted his teeth and slid down the mountain. Since he had no control over the direction, the three-legged bear got hung on a tree and fainted. When he woke up, he found himself in a small cave. This cave was just right for the three-legged bear and very comfortable.
As the three-legged bear was looking around, a monster that looked similar to him, also a three-legged bear, said, "Are you awake? I saw you fell from up there, so I picked you up. Oh! By the way, my name is Lillian, what's yours?"
The three-legged bear looked at Lillian, shook his head and said, "I don't know my name. Are you a resident here?" Lillian looked at the three-legged bear and said, "No, I came here from up there just like you. People like us would only be laughed at up there. I came here by accident."
The three-legged bear looked at Lillian and said, "Well, I felt that the aura here is very special, and I followed it all the way here." Lillian smiled and said, "Oh, you said that the power attracted you here, that's not surprising." The three-legged bear asked, "That power?"
Lillian smiled and said, "There is a magical power deep in this canyon. All the life in this canyon relies on that power to survive." The three-legged bear said, "Can you take me to see that power?"
Lillian replied, "Wait until you recover from your injury." The three-legged bear nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, Lillian." Lillian handed the fruit she had just found to the three-legged bear and said, "Here, this fruit is delicious." The three-legged bear took the berry handed over by Lillian, tasted it, and found it very sweet and delicious.
Lillian looked at the three-legged bear eating happily and said, "Hey, let me give you a name. I can't call you like that." The three-legged bear nodded and said, "Okay, what should I call you?" Lillian thought for a moment and said, "Then let's call you Mosilian, okay?"
Mosleyan ate berries and said, "Mosleyan? Okay, anything is fine." Lillian looked at Mosleyan and felt happy because she felt too lonely in this place, and Mosleyan was a mutated species like herself.
Mosleyan stayed in Lillian's cave to recuperate for several days. Lillian found ways to do interesting things for Mosleyan every day to prevent him from getting bored during the recuperation period.
That day, Mosleyander's wounds were almost healed, so he said to Lillian, "My wounds are almost healed, Lillian, when will you take me to see that energy?" Lillian thought for a moment and said, "Later, now is the time when all creatures are looking for food. If we go out now and encounter that monster, we may not be able to come back."
Mosilian looked at Lillian in confusion and said, "That monster? Are there other monsters here?" Lillian nodded and said, "There are many powerful monsters here. The most terrifying one is the one guarding that kind of power. It may be a bit difficult for us to get past it."
Lillian and Mosleyan discussed for a long time in Lillian's cave. Lily saw that it was almost dark, so she said, "It's almost time, let's go out." Mosleyan nodded and followed Lillian out of the cave. As soon as Mosleyan came out of the cave, what caught his eyes was a large area of grass. The grass was taller than Mosleyan, as if Mosleyan had become the size of an ant.
Mosilian looked around curiously, as if he had arrived in the land of giants. Lillian continued to lead Mosilian forward. Mosilian saw a huge berry. Mosilian pointed at the huge berry and said, "Can we eat that?" Lillian explained, "That can be eaten, but we must not touch it. There is a bird monster here, and that berry is its food. If we eat its food, the bird will come over to eat us, so we'd better not take the risk."
Mosleyan said helplessly: "Okay, let's let it go for now." Mosleyan looked at the huge berry reluctantly, and Mosleyan thought: "Such a big berry, it should be enough for me to eat for a long time." Lillian did not see Mosleyan's reluctant look.
Continuing to walk with Mosilian, the further he walked, the more surprised Mosilian felt. The scenery here was completely different from the outside. Everything here looked very strange. Just then, it suddenly rained.
Lillian hurriedly said to Mosilian, "Hurry! Let's find a cave to take shelter from the rain. It would be bad if we get wet." They began to walk deeper into the woods. Just as they were wondering why there was no place to take shelter from the rain, Mosilian suddenly stepped on empty air.
They fell into a cave that seemed to have been dug in advance. Lillian reacted quickly and grabbed Mosilian. But Lillian's strength was not that strong. She was not careful and fell into the depths of the cave. Mosilian said with a guilty look on his face, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I made you fall down. If I had been more careful just now, this wouldn't have happened."
Lillian said nonchalantly, "It's okay. We just happened to come across a cave as we needed to take shelter from the rain." Mosleyan still felt a little guilty, "But..." Mosleyan was about to say something when he was interrupted by Lillian, "Shh, follow me." Lillian moved her hand and a ball of fire rose in her palm, illuminating the cave.
Only then did they realize that this was indeed done by someone before. There was a different world inside the cave. There was a strange totem on the stone wall of the cave. When they got closer, Mosilian and Lillian were stunned. The totem turned out to be a three-legged bear like them.
Mosilian looked at Lillian's surprised expression and said, "You've never been here before?" Lillian shook her head and said, "No, there are too many powerful monsters in this canyon. I usually only move around the cave where I live." Mosilian looked at Lillian and asked, "Then how did you know that kind of power is here?"
Lillian said with some embarrassment: "One night I couldn't sleep, so I came out of my cave and looked into the distance. Guess what I saw?" Mosilian asked: "What did you see?" Lillian said: "I saw a golden flash falling from the sky in the distance. I was very curious, and then I ran madly in that direction."
Mosilian interrupted Lillian and said, "Then why did you come back alive? Didn't you say that there was a very scary monster guarding that power?" Lillian said, "Can you please stop interrupting others? It's very rude." Mosilian said, "I'm sorry, I'm too anxious. Please continue."
Lillian continued, "After I ran out of my cave, I lost my courage for some reason. I was not afraid of anything and just kept running forward. As I ran, I became more and more scared. I almost couldn't walk anymore. I couldn't use my magic to make myself run forward. I felt fear in my heart, a fear I had never experienced in my life. I couldn't move forward another step. My brain kept saying, 'You can't get through. Go back. Go back.'
I couldn't control myself, and my body turned backwards. Before I could walk far, my feet were empty. I thought to myself, "Oh no, I can't use my magic." So I fell into the cave that day just like we did today. But the cave I fell into that day was dark, and I couldn't use magic, so I couldn't see anything. "
Mosilian asked, "What did you see? Was it the same as what we saw today?" Lillian replied, "Are you stupid? What did I say just now? I said I couldn't use magic in there. It was pitch black inside and I couldn't see anything." Then she said, "Did your injury damage your brain? You can forget what I just said." Mosilian said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. How did you end up?"
Lillian thought about what happened that day and found that she couldn't remember what happened at the end. She said to Mosilian, "Since I fell in, I felt that everything around me was pitch black. Then I felt like I had no feeling, as if I fell asleep. When I woke up again, the first thing I saw was that I was in my own cave."
Mosilian was very surprised. How could he not remember what he had done? He felt that the world was deceiving him. Mosilian asked Lillian carefully: "Do you really not remember what you experienced that day?" Lillian replied: "I really don't know. I didn't think about it after that day. It was not until today when we fell into the cave together that I recalled my experience that day."
Mosilian said, "Okay." But in his heart, Mosilian was still thinking about what happened to Lillian that day. Lillian was actually very entangled in her heart, entangled in what she did that day, why did she fall into the hole this time, and use her magic to illuminate the road ahead without thinking. Lillian was very troubled, and simply stopped thinking about it. Who cares? This time, someone fell with me, and nothing happened.
He turned to Mosilian behind him and said, "Let's go and see what's in this cave." Mosilian replied, "Okay, let's explore this mysterious cave together."
