Chapter 11 Xiaobai
Anran carried a small backpack on her back and walked out of the house towards the back mountain amid her parents' numerous warnings and instructions. The wild flowers on the road contained drops of dew and swayed gently in the morning breeze. The fresh air is mixed with the fragrance of grass and trees, and the fragrance of wild flowers makes people feel particularly refreshed.
"Hey, isn't this our arrogant village beauty?"
A sarcastic voice came. When An Ran heard the voice, she looked and saw Li Cuicui's daughter An Xiaoyan standing on the edge of the field holding a vegetable basket and looking at her with a smile.
"I don't deserve to be called a village beauty, but compared to you, I am more than qualified."
An Ran did not indulge her and directly retorted back.
"You..." An Xiaoyan is fair and pretty, and usually has a high opinion of herself. I always feel that the girls in the village are not as good as me.
"Some people are so picky because they rely on their good looks. I kindly helped her find such a good family, but she still doesn't like it. Does she want to find a celebrity or a rich man to be a high-ranking official? She doesn't even consider whether she is worthy of him."
An Xiaoyan looked at An Ran's increasingly attractive appearance, jealousy in her eyes almost overflowing.
An Ran was almost so angry that she laughed. She went out in a good mood and heard a dog barking.
"Right, such a good family will definitely leave it to you. I think Sister Yan Zi and that family are really a perfect match. Sister Yan Zi is not young anymore, right? Hurry up and ask Aunt Li to pick a good day for you to marry. If you delay any longer, you will become an old maid and no one will want you."
An Xiaoyan was so angry that her brows were furious. She wanted to marry a handsome and rich man in the future. An Ran, that bitch, actually used that disgusting old man Li Jiabao to humiliate herself.
She threw down the basket in her hand and was about to chase after An Ran to beat her. An Ran had no intention of getting entangled with her, so he ran away after saying that. Only An Xiaoyan was left standing there furiously.
An Ran walked quickly along the path up the mountain into the depths of the forest, feeling the spiritual energy of the mountain, and the spiritual power in her body began to circulate involuntarily.
An Ran felt inexplicably surprised. The deeper into the mountains and forests, the richer the spiritual energy became. It was incomparable to the meager spiritual energy outside.
She took out a small machete and cut the vines that were blocking her feet while looking around for the herbs she needed.
Before I knew it, half a day had passed. Anran had a great harvest. Her small backpack was filled with medicinal herbs, and she also harvested two pheasants and a nest of pheasant eggs.
I took out my cell phone and checked it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Her stomach began to growl with hunger, so she stopped, took out a piece of bread from the space and ate it slowly.
Looking around, towering trees reach into the sky and cover half the sky. The ground is covered with lush wild grass and blooming unknown wild flowers, which attract butterflies to dance around.
She quickly finished the bread in two or three bites, then took out a cup of spiritual spring water from the space and drank it. Then put the backpack and the pheasant into the space and take them out after going down the mountain.
Anran identified the direction and walked quickly down the mountain.
"roar......"
A sound of a wild beast roaring was heard in the distance. An Ran didn't want to confront the large beast, so he quickened his pace and ran forward.
Suddenly, An Ran stopped abruptly. He looked solemnly at the huge cutthroat tiger blocking the ground in front of him.
The tiger had a rare coat of shiny white fur, and a large silver character "王" was written on its forehead. It was completely different from the cutworms she had seen at the zoo.
The tiger stood not far from An Ran, staring at An Ran with its pair of round eyes motionlessly.
An Ran calmly took out a small machete from the space, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he stood there with his legs stiff, not daring to move.
Although she had practiced the Chaos Art, she had never used it and didn't know if she had any chance of escaping the tiger's mouth.
Forget it, I'd better hide in the space for a while. Tiger, my heart trembles just looking at it. In a flash, An Ran flashed into the space. She only dared to go deep into the Daqing Mountains because of the cheat of space.
The person in front of him suddenly disappeared, and a hint of human doubt flashed in Baihu's eyes.
Hey, where is that sweet-smelling person just now? I really like that scent! The white tiger still stood there motionless. Everything that happened before its eyes caused its already slow brain to freeze a little.
Time passed slowly, and the white tiger was still waiting patiently, lying lazily on the ground.
An Ran in the space was so anxious when he saw this. He originally wanted to hide in the space and wait for the tiger to leave before coming out. However, the tiger did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
It is impossible for her to hide in the space forever and compete with the tiger to see who has more patience. If she doesn't go back, her parents will be worried.
After waiting for a long time, the tiger outside was still lying on the ground in high spirits, looking around.
"Let's fight." Seeing that it would be too late if they didn't go down the mountain, An Ran held the machete tightly. After finding the right direction, he tried to sneak around the tiger as soon as he got out of the space.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, the white tiger rolled over from the ground and stood in front of An Ran. There was no sign of clumsiness in its huge body.
An Ran stood there, not daring to move rashly. The hand holding the machete turned pale from using too much force.
Before she could come up with a solution, the white tiger rolled over to the ground again, revealing its soft belly.
She was stunned when she saw this, and suddenly remembered that she had seen wild animals showing their bellies to people to show weakness and curry favor. An Ran didn't understand what the tiger meant, but seeing that the tiger had no ill intentions, he walked around the tiger and headed out of the mountain.
After walking a few steps, the white tiger crawled out again, stood in front of An Ran, turned over and lay down, exposing its belly. She was confused. Did the tiger want her to touch its belly? Could it be that its belly is itchy and it wants me to scratch it? What kind of weird hobby is this?
An Ran carefully reached out and scratched the tiger's belly.
"Haha, Brother Tiger! It's getting late, and I have to go home. Otherwise, I'll come and help you scratch next time."
She looked helpless, wondering how to communicate this.
The white tiger stuck out its tongue and licked Anran's palm with an expression of enjoyment. An Ran had a flash of inspiration in her mind. She had just drunk the spiritual spring water. Could it be that the white tiger came here because it smelled the scent of the spiritual spring water?
She took out a handful of spiritual spring water and placed it in the palm of her hand. Sure enough, the white tiger licked it up happily, and its whole body relaxed like a kitten whose fur had been stroked.
An Ran is ashamed...
She patted the white tiger's head gently: "Xiaobai, I have to go home. I'll come to see you next time!"
The white tiger seemed to understand what she said and stood up to make way for her.
Anran was overjoyed and ran down the mountain in a hurry. The white tiger followed her slowly, perhaps because of the intimidation of the king of beasts, she reached the outskirts of Daqing Mountain smoothly.
An Ran stopped and turned to look at the white tiger that was still following behind her, feeling a little embarrassed.
She tried to communicate with Baihu, "Xiaobai, I'm almost home. You can't go out, or you'll scare others. Go home obediently, and I'll come to see you when I'm free."
After hearing her words, Baihu actually turned around and slowly walked into the mountains. After walking a few steps, he looked back at Anran reluctantly, then jumped and disappeared into the depths of the woods.
An Ran carefully observed the surroundings to make sure that there was no one around. Then she took out a small backpack from the space, took out two pheasants, carried them in her hands, and walked home.
She didn't meet anyone along the way, so she walked home and opened the gate to go in.
"Mom, I'm back."
As soon as the voice fell, Lin Qingwan walked out of the house.
"Why did you come back so late? I was so worried."
An Ran held the pheasant in her hand and said proudly, "Look what I caught?"
"pheasant!"
Lin Qingwan couldn't help but pat An Ran.
"You crazy girl, it's illegal to catch pheasants now. Did anyone see it?"
An Ran touched his head in confusion: "Is it illegal to catch pheasants? My dad also caught them when I was a child, so why is it okay?"
"It was the past. A few years ago, your third uncle's son Yadong went into the mountains and trapped a pheasant. I don't know who reported him, but he was taken to the police station and detained for half a month."
An Ran was dumbfounded, looking at the two dead pheasants in her hands. Not only did she catch two pheasants, she also destroyed their nest and brought back all the pheasant eggs.
"Well, what should we do then?"
No, if a pheasant is detained for half a month, then she will be detained in the police station for a month. Uh…plus pheasant eggs and more!
Lin Qingwan looked at An Ran, who was about to cry but had no tears, and felt a little amused.
"Did you see it on the way back?"
"I don't think so, right?"
An Ran didn't see anyone along the way. In fact, with her sensitive senses, she could detect where there were people.
"Give it to me, I'll take it and clean it up. It won't be good if people see it at home."
Lin Qingwan took the pheasant from An Ran's hand unhappily. At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open heavily with a "bang".
