God's Gift

In the lush green and quiet forest, Yu Youyou followed Lu Keming, carrying a large bag.

The path, which has been unused for many years, is covered with moss and piled with some yellow fallen leaves. It has been soaked by the abundant moisture in the forest, and has grown mycelium and is gradually rotting.

A small insect was living in the leaves. It poked its head out from the leaves because of the noise of people walking. After seeing the moving monster, it fled in panic.

The bushes were covered with red berries.

Yu Youyou stretched out her hand, picked a berry, and quickly put it into her mouth before Lu Keming saw it. She smacked her lips twice and swallowed it.

The sweet juice flowed into her throat, and Yu Youyou's eyes lit up. She glanced at Lu Keming who was concentrating on the road in front of her, reached out her hand, picked many berries and threw them into her bag.

A squirrel jumped from a tree into the bushes, picked a few berries, put them in his hand, and was about to put them in his mouth.

But a hand suddenly reached out from the side, grabbed its neck, took all the berries in its hand, and then put it back where it was.

The squirrel that was released stared blankly at the cheerful back of the girl who was leaving.

As they walked along this way, Yu Youyou ate all the berries along the way.

After a while, the berries were gone, and Yu Youyou started to imitate others, searching around for something similar.

The vines on the trees were covered with white flowers, hanging down and blocking the road.

Lu Keming waved away the vines, and Yu Youyou passed under the vines, picked the flowers on them and put them in her bag.

A frog sat on a leaf, blending in with the withered yellow leaves.

Lu Keming, who was about to land, frowned, kicked away the frog on the leaf, and continued walking forward.

Yu Youyou walked over, picked up the frog, chuckled, and stuffed the frog into her bag.

There were a few red mushrooms growing under the tree in front. The bright color made Lu Keming stop and take a look.

Yu Youyou stood at the back, and as soon as Lu Keming left, she pulled out all the mushrooms and tried to stuff them into her bag, but the bag was already full.

"Huh?" Yu Youyou grabbed the mushrooms, looked at the full bag, and hesitated for a few seconds.

She checked her whole body, folded her clothes into a pocket, and put the mushrooms in it.

Yu Youyou patted her pockets with satisfaction, and followed Lu Keming with her head shaking.

When Lu Keming turned around to look at Yu Youyou, what he saw was a person covered with colorful things.

Lu Keming stared at Yu Youyou, who had reaped a lot of rewards, and his eyes paused for two seconds.

Yu Youyou was holding too many things in her hands and was afraid that something would fall, so she had to support herself with her legs, and ended up walking forward in a squatting horse stance.

Lu Keming looked carefully for a while and finally identified what was on her.

There were colorful mushrooms in her clothes, a flower on her head, a few leaves hanging from her collar, and her bag was bulging with something unknown.

There was a circle of yellow stuff around the neck, and it seemed to be moving.

Lu Keming looked at it intently for a long time and finally understood it.

A yellow snake was wrapped around Youyou's neck.

Lu Keming's expression was blank for a few seconds, and for a moment he couldn't understand what he saw.

Why does she always come up with something that makes people feel dizzy!

A few seconds later, Lu Keming quickly stepped forward, pulled the snake off Yu Youyou's neck, and threw it aside.

"Ah?" Yu Youyou looked at the little snake running away and made a regretful sound.

Lu Keming threw away the strange things hanging on Yu Youyou, picked up the red mushroom in Yu Youyou's pocket, and asked in a cold voice: "Did you eat it?"

"No." Yu Youyou shook her head.

There was too much food on hand and I hadn’t had time to eat it yet.

Lu Keming breathed a sigh of relief and threw all the mushrooms to the ground.

Yu Youyou widened her eyes, looking back and forth between Mushroom and Lu Keming in disbelief.

"Don't look at it. Do you want to poison yourself?" Lu Keming was not moved at all by Yu Youyou's shocked gaze.

After hearing this, Yu Youyou understood.

It turns out that it can’t be eaten.

She pursed her lips and looked at the pile of mushrooms on the ground, thinking that they had all been picked in vain.

Lu Keming grabbed Yu Youyou and brought her to his side, "Go ahead."

He had to keep his eyes on her.

Yu Youyou's eyes rolled around a few times, and seeing that Lu Keming did not give in, she sighed, lowered her head and walked forward.

Lu Keming walked behind with his hands folded, staring at Yu Youyou.

"The horned owls are still sleeping now." Yu Youyou muttered, "It's time for me to go to bed too."

"You slept last night." Lu Keming followed behind Yu Youyou and responded lightly.

"That was all last night. I didn't sleep during the day."

Lu Keming snorted coldly and did not answer Yu Youyou.

As they walked, a hole appeared in front of them.

Lu Keming stood at the entrance of the cave and looked down. There were some small trees growing on the earthen walls of the cave. The bottom of the cave was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

He took out a climbing rope from the storage space and threw it down, but it couldn't reach the bottom.

Lu Keming took a step back, looked across, and estimated the diameter of the cave entrance.

Less than three meters.

It is more than enough for a human, but for a dragon, it cannot even spread its wings.

This means that after going down, he will not be able to fly up.

When Lu Keming approached the cave entrance, he found that his mental power was gradually dissipating, which he had never felt anywhere else in this world.

The fire may be in the cave.

But if this continued, it meant that Lu Keming could no longer use his mental power, but he also could not transform into a dragon and fly out directly. This forced Lu Keming to consider whether he could go down directly.

He stroked the dragon ring, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

At this moment, Yu Youyou excitedly walked to the edge of the cave, rubbing his hands and saying, "We are going down, right?"

Lu Keming frowned and responded, "Yeah, but..."

But there's no rush.

But before Lu Keming came out, Yu Youyou jumped down.

"Great!"

Within a few seconds, Lu Keming could only see Yu Youyou's falling figure and her cheerful voice.

Lu Keming's pupils dilated instantly and he looked at the scene in disbelief. After realizing what was happening, Lu Keming clenched his hands and jumped down.

In mid-air, he used his constantly flowing mental power to condense a rope and wrapped it around Yu Youyou's waist.

"Are you crazy!?" Lu Keming questioned Yu Youyou angrily.

"What? The wind is so strong!" Yu Youyou shouted as the wind whistled in her ears.

The trees beside the cave wall brushed Lu Keming's cheek and pulled at his clothes. His mental strength became increasingly thinner and he gradually could not maintain the same state. Lu Keming gritted his teeth, pulled Yu Youyou up and hugged her waist.

The two continued to fall, and the mental strength that stabilized their bodies finally collapsed when they were two meters below the bottom of the cave.

Lu Keming fell to the wet ground, with a soft body on top of him, and let out a muffled groan.

Yu Youyou knocked her head against Lu Keming's chin, then raised her head to look at the glowing cave walls around her. Her dark eyes flashed with curiosity and a happy smile spread across her face.

Lu Keming propped himself up from the ground, pushed Yu Youyou aside, and looked at his palms with disgust, which were covered with sticky dirt.

He subconsciously wanted to shake his hand, but found that the dragon ring on his index finger disappeared.

After discovering this fact, Lu Keming's pupils suddenly dilated and he froze in place.

Yu Youyou got up from the ground, ran to the wall of the cave, and looked curiously at the luminous plants growing on the wall.

"Lu Keming, look..."

Before she finished her words, she saw Lu Keming standing there with his head down, his body shaking.
