Chapter 197 Earth Sheep
"Excellent."
Yun Liu smiled and quickly put the insects into his folded leaves. He pushed with his hand and the auspicious bird flew out again, but came back quickly after a while.
After repeating this three times, the leaves are already full.
All the fireflies lit their lamps, and faint lights floated in the sealed leaves, making the leaves look translucent and green. They turned out to be beautiful little lanterns.
"Here, take it."
After fastening the handle securely, Yun Liu placed the only green lantern in the world in Ding Xiaodie's hand and said, "Hold it well."
"Uh, thank you!"
Unexpectedly, it was made for her, Ding Xiaodie quickly thanked him politely.
After all, she had a fight with this guy a few hours ago, and the other party had bruises on his face. If it wasn't for the last resort, she would definitely not agree to let him come with her this time.
At this moment, I didn't expect that he was thinking about myself.
Yun Liu pulled his lip and sneered, "I was just worried that you might fall and get hurt, so I had to use all my strength to carry you back. There's no need to thank me."
Ding Xiaodie was stunned: "..."
This guy just has the nerve to be stubborn. Never mind, let’s just keep moving forward!
With this small lantern, although I can't see too far, the light can provide some peace of mind in the dark.
Her steps were no longer irregular, one deep and one shallow, and Ding Xiaodie breathed a sigh of relief.
She was thinking about taking this opportunity to have a good chat with Yun Liu.
But just as she was about to speak, this guy suddenly grabbed her head and said in a tense voice, "Don't make a sound." While speaking, he pulled her to hide behind a bush.
He quickly covered the small lantern in his hand with his sleeve.
What's wrong?
Ding Xiaodie was not unfamiliar with situations like this. She had encountered them countless times when she was on missions before. But she didn't understand who made Yun Liu nervous.
She looked around, but there was nothing.
But in the next second her breathing suddenly stagnated because a heavy snoring sound similar to that of a human was slowly approaching.
Snore... snore...
From this, it can be concluded that the person coming was not a desert soldier, but she could not be happy. It was obvious that the person coming was an animal, and a huge one at that.
When you walk past giant dogs, you can hear their ventriloquism similar to this.
After a while, a snow-white animal walked slowly along the path. It was tall and strong, with white fur all over its body. The white fur shone with the moonlight as it walked. Its eyes were icy blue, and behind it was a big snow-white tail with shaggy fur.
It looks like a white tiger, but its tail is exactly the same as a dog's tail.
I saw it moving forward calmly with an arrogant look, as if it was the king of the mountain, moving forward unstoppable.
Only after it walked away and the snoring sound could no longer be heard did Yun Liu heave a sigh of relief: "We are so lucky to have encountered a ground sheep here."
"What?"
Ding Xiaodie had never heard of such a term.
Yun Liu then said, "Confucius said: 'A character like a picture of a dog is called Diyang.' People also euphemistically refer to it as a dragon, calling dogs 'Black Dragon' or 'White Dragon.' That creature we just passed by was neither a dog nor a tiger. We Bingdong people encountered it in the mountains before, and the old tribe leader was too lazy to think of a name, so he just used one from a book and named it Diyang."
Ding Xiaodie was so upset that she frowned. What the hell was that?
Compared with the knowledge of these ancient texts, she and Yun Liu are far apart.
When we went to the old patriarch's house, we found books piled everywhere. Later, when the Bingdong people left, those books disappeared.
It can be seen that these people's obsession with knowledge is far beyond that of ordinary people.
"not good."
Ding Xiaodie's face turned pale as she thought about it: "Will the sheep continue to walk along this road?"
If that were the case, we'd be done for!
The villagers had no idea what this thing was. Perhaps they only had one idea: to kill any living thing they saw and eat its meat. In short, whoever saw it got a share.
The scene of the villagers rushing forward seemed to flash before her eyes. Ding Xiaodie was worried that they were no match for the earth sheep and that they would not be able to kill the sheep but would lose their own lives instead.
Yun Liu's slow voice came to my ears: "You wish. This earth sheep will not show up casually. Anyone who can see it is lucky. It is also very spiritual and generally will not harm humans."
"That puts my mind at ease."
Ding Xiaodie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled broadly: "So we're both quite lucky. And now that I think about it, that sheep is really good-looking, mighty and strong. The way it walks is so cool and arrogant, just like a general about to go to war. Hey..."
Yun Liu grabbed his ear and said, "Hurry up and leave. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"Let go."
After walking a distance while cursing, Yun Liu still couldn't find Ding Rong's family, so he suggested turning back: "It's getting late. It seems we won't be able to find Ding Rong's family. Let's go back! Besides, doesn't Ding Xue like Big Brother too? Wouldn't her going back bother you? Well, no, I have to find Ding Rong's family."
"What are you talking about? You're talking nonsense." Ding Xiaodie looked around vigilantly.
Although the ground sheep is intelligent, I really don’t know if it will suddenly turn back. I guess it must be very painful to be bitten by it, right?
I was not paying attention and didn't hear clearly what Yun Liu was mumbling.
She asked casually, but Yun Liu said, "Hurry up, we need to find Ding Rong's family as soon as possible. Doesn't Ding Xue like Big Brother very much? Why don't you help her?"
What?
Ding Xiaodie paused.
Is there something wrong?
"Don't talk about your elder brother. Even if Ding Xue likes him, Lu Chenhe will never like her."
"Then I don't care. Anyway, Ding Xue is here to disrupt the situation."
“…”
(へ╬)
In the darkness, Ding Xiaodie gritted her teeth. She didn't understand Yun Liu's mentality. Now she couldn't scold him, nor could she hit him.
But her blood boiled for a moment, and she said angrily: "No matter how you try to mess things up, Lu Chenhe and I like each other. One day, when we grow up, we will be together and get married, believe it or not."
"I don't believe it."
Yun Liu didn't say anything for a long time after hearing her words. He walked a few meters away before saying this. Then he said, "Because your marriage has been predetermined!"
"nonsense."
“…”
Ding Xiaodie turned around angrily and looked at the other person with her head down.
She really didn't understand why Yun Liu always used this topic to argue with her. In terms of familiarity, she and him couldn't really be considered friends. If that was the case, what was wrong with him always making jokes about this?
But Ding Xiaodie, who originally wanted to scold him, was stunned. Under the small green lantern, she saw Yun Liu's face was so handsome that he looked like a character from a comic book.
He had long hair and a noble temperament. There seemed to be undercurrents flowing in his dark eyes, which were as deep and unfathomable as the stars in the sky.
