Green mountains and clear waters, blue sky and white clouds, but where is this?
Leng Yue patted her sore bottom, completely bewildered. What was going on? Were they taking advantage of her because she wasn't protected by the system anymore?
Leng Yue looked down at her clothes, old and tattered. Her hands were filthy, and Leng Yue felt as if she had escaped from a pile of beggars.
There was a large pond ahead, and Leng Yue walked over. She put her hands in the water to wash them, and what she found was shocking. She discovered that all ten of her fingernails were filled with filth. Her arms were also completely smudged, making it impossible to see her skin color.
Leng Yue's face darkened. What was going on? Had she been transported to Africa?
This time there was absolutely nothing—no plot, no hints, and we didn't even know what the mission was.
Just as Leng Yue was hesitating about whether to jump into the pond for a bath, a pair of small, dark hands appeared on her clothes.
Leng Yue's face darkened. Such dark hands? Take them off right now! Leng Yue looked over and saw a dark-skinned, thin child.
The little boy asked timidly, "Sister, I'm hungry. Have you found any fruit on the tree?"
As the little black boy spoke, he wiped his snot with his sleeve. Leng Yue looked at the little black boy's sleeve, then at her own, and almost vomited. The dark, unidentified substance on it—could it all be snot?
Ugh! Leng Yue immediately vomited!
After Leng Yue finished vomiting, she felt a little ashamed. She could lie in the latrine without changing her expression before, so how could she be defeated so easily by an unknown object now?
Humans really are pleasure-seeking creatures!
Seeing that the child was young, Leng Yue deliberately put on a stern face, "Why are you all so dirty? Come and wash up!"
"Sister, you're finally back to normal! Little Fish thought you'd never turn back!" Little Black said, then hugged Leng Yue and started crying.
Leng Yue was initially somewhat resistant, but considering that she herself was not clean, she simply gave up resisting.
We're all impure, so why be disgusted with each other? Leng Yue felt much better after this self-reflection.
"Little Fish, what are you saying? I don't understand," Leng Yue said deliberately.
It wasn't that Leng Yue wanted to do this; she simply didn't receive any plot information and just traveled directly from the awards stage, okay?
Have you ever seen someone receive an award in front of thousands of people one second and then end up in this godforsaken place the next? Leng Yue is one such person.
Fortunately, Leng Yue has a resilient constitution; otherwise, she would have mentally collapsed from all this torment.
Leng Yue was still completely bewildered! She didn't know what world she was in, why she was there, or why she had suddenly left the previous mission world.
In short, Leng Yue could write a whole book of "100,000 Whys" about all the questions that are currently on her mind!
However, Leng Yue wasn't completely unlucky this time. Because this child named Xiao Yu'er knew quite a lot!
Little Fish was still young, and when he heard Leng Yue say that he couldn't understand what he was saying, he got anxious.
"Sister, please don't go crazy anymore, okay? Parents are gone, and you said we would depend on each other for survival! Sister, your name is Leng Yue, and my name is Leng Xiaoyu. You must never forget that. You must call me Xiaoyuer, and you must call me that for the rest of your life. You can't forget me, waaaah..." Leng Xiaoyu threw herself into Leng Yue's arms and cried loudly again.
Leng Yue no longer knew what her expression was, but considering her dirty face, she figured it was probably impossible to tell what expression she had!
Finally, after Xiaoyuer had cried himself to sleep, Lengyue sighed inwardly and pulled him to wash his hands and face by the river.
"I was sick before, but I'm better now. However, I've forgotten a lot of things. Little Fish, you have to tell me slowly, okay?" Leng Yue said softly as she washed Little Fish.
For some unknown reason, the original owner suddenly went insane. Each time she had an episode, she would run off aimlessly and forget everyone. Little Fish had to stay by her side every day, terrified that his only sister would disappear.
Even when the original owner wasn't having an episode, she wouldn't take care of Xiaoyuer like before. Gradually, the original owner started to be unable to even take care of herself.
Before she fell ill, the original owner was a well-known village beauty. She was also famous for her diligence and competence in the surrounding villages. At only sixteen years old, countless matchmakers had already come to her door to propose marriage.
The original owner always proposed to bring Xiaoyuer with her when she got married, but no one was willing to accept Xiaoyuer as a burden. Therefore, nothing ever came of it.
In the past, although the original owner and Xiaoyuer did not have parents, they were never short of food and clothing, and they were never as slovenly as they are now.
Later, the original owner fell ill, and Xiaoyuer was still young, so they became a slovenly sibling that everyone disliked.
There was no harvest in the fields, and no one in the family cared about them anymore. The siblings lived a life of uncertainty, sometimes having one meal and sometimes not.
This time, it was because Xiaoyuer was too hungry that he asked Lengyue to climb the tree to see if there was any fruit. As a result, he accidentally fell from the tree, and Lengyue happened to pass through it.
From Leng Xiaoyu's few words, Leng Yue pieced together the original owner's general experiences.
The two kept washing for most of the day, when suddenly, both of their stomachs started rumbling.
Leng Yue and Xiao Yu'er looked at each other. Although they both looked much better after washing up, good looks couldn't fill their stomachs.
"Sister, I'm hungry." Little Fish frowned and rubbed her stomach.
"Me too," Leng Yue said, rubbing her stomach. "Is there anything left to eat at home?"
Little Fish looked at Leng Yue with an expression that seemed to ask if her sister was alright, and hesitantly asked, "The house is empty, sister, can you find anything to eat?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yue knew she couldn't rely on her family. What could she do? Leng Yue stood up, feeling even hungrier.
"Little Fish, aren't there fruits on that mountain?" Leng Yue looked at the distant mountain, which was covered with trees and looked from afar that the trees were full of fruit.
Little Fish quickly shook his head, "Sister, you forgot, there are wolves in Baimi Mountain. The adults in the village always bring hunting rifles when they go hiking, we can't go!"
"There are wolves? Well, let's think of another way then." Leng Yue said with some regret. Looking into the distance, there were indeed many fruits on the mountain. What a pity, there are wolves in this place!
Suddenly, a fish leaped out of the pond with a splash. Leng Yue's eyes lit up. "Great! There are fish in here! Shall we catch some and eat them?"
"Yes, yes, I want to eat fish!" the little fish shouted happily.
"Do we have any fishing nets?" Leng Yue asked.
"No," Little Fish shook his head.
"Where's the fishing rod?" Leng Yue asked again.
"No, not at all." Little Fish shook his head again.
Leng Yue looked at it and wondered, "What kind of fish are we eating? There's nothing here. She's not a martial arts master who can use a stick to skewer fish to eat it."
"Then why bother eating fish?" Leng Yue said dejectedly.
"If only a big fish could jump up and feed us," the little fish said, smacking its lips as it looked at the pond.
Leng Yue's face darkened. "Unless that fish goes crazy and jumps up to feed you..."
"Splash!" A fish jumped up, and the little fish grabbed it.
"Sister, God heard my prayers!" Little Fish grinned happily.
Leng Yue was extremely surprised. Could this little guy be a deity?
