The mangrove forest isn't far away; it's just on the opposite hilltop.
It's called the mangrove forest because someone planted a few red maple trees there. Now, at this time of year, the maple leaves are in full bloom, and from a distance, it looks like a vast expanse of red leaves.
The two mountain peaks are connected, and if you move quickly, you can cross them in about ten minutes.
Because she was wearing too many clothes, Tuanzi was having trouble walking: "Mommy, I can't breathe!"
Seeing her son walking ahead looking like a ball, Ye Wanying couldn't help but chuckle. She went over and helped her son take off his cotton-padded jacket.
"You can only unbutton it first, and then take it off after it gets warm, otherwise you'll catch a cold!"
Tuanzi hummed in agreement, letting out a long sigh of relief as her clothes were unbuttoned. "Mommy, how much further?" she asked.
Ye Wanying glanced at the patch of red maple leaves on the opposite mountain peak, held her son's hand and pointed in that direction: "Do you see that? That's where we're going!"
"Wow, Mommy, Mommy, everything there is red!"
"Yes, isn't it beautiful?"
Tuanzi nodded repeatedly: "Mmm, Mommy, do gods live there?"
Ye Wanying was quite helpless. Actually, she hadn't been telling her son these myths and legends lately because he was too engrossed in them. Who knew he would still remember them so fondly?
Where in this world do immortals come from? And even if they do, they live on sacred mountains, okay?
"Well, why don't you go and see for yourself?"
Tuanzi was fooled by his mother again, completely unaware of his own words: "Mommy, let's hurry up and go!" he said hurriedly, pulling on Ye Wanying's hand.
They want to see the immortals.
Ye Wanying didn't break the spell, pretending she knew nothing, and followed her son's short legs towards that direction.
It took the mother and son nearly twenty minutes to reach the mangrove forest. As soon as the boy entered, his eyes scanned the surroundings.
Ye Wanying sprinkled medicine powder around her as she walked, so she wasn't worried about her son getting bitten.
This "medicine" powder is more than enough to deal with zombies, let alone those weak animals.
The mangrove forest is really beautiful. If it were in future generations, this place would definitely become a major tourist attraction. Ye Wanying looked at her son running not far ahead and couldn't help but take out a camera from her space and secretly take a picture of him!
In the photo, the guy is grinning so hard that his incomplete front teeth are showing. He looks very happy and is running around in the bright red maple leaves, like an elf who has fallen to earth.
In the end, the little guy still couldn't find the gods he was looking for. He sat on the ground dejectedly, his chubby hand supporting his chin: "Mommy, why aren't there any gods here?"
Still struggling with this unsolvable problem?
Ye Wanying was utterly speechless at her son's obsession, but she still had to find a reason for him, otherwise, this little devil would definitely start nagging for days.
"Uh, you idiot, gods live in the heavens! And they are usually invisible; we mortals can't see them with our naked eyes."
After listening to his mother's words and thinking for a while, Tuanzi stood up and, to Ye Wanying's astonishment, began to shout to the surroundings:
"Hey, you guys, stop hiding, okay? Come out! If you don't come out, I'm going to transform!"
What do you want to transform into?
The little dumpling hummed a few more times: "Aren't you guys really going to come out? Come with me, I'm super powerful after I transform!"
