A group of children were sent back to Crescent Moon Valley by Bailu, but Little Crescent has been entangled by Bailu since then.This god who was full and had nothing to do ran after Little Crescent Moon like a ghost. Early in the morning, Little Crescent Moon opened her eyes, and the white deer's big face plate appeared in front of her eyes, "Little Crescent Moon, play with me! "Little Yueya helped the tribal leader, the old man, herd cattle, and drove the cattle up the hillside. The white deer hung upside down from the vines, "Little Yueya, play with me!" Lifting the curtain of the straw shed, "Little Crescent Moon... vomit, it stinks!"

When little Yueya came out of the thatched hut, she saw that annoying god squatting on top of the earthen wall in the distance with her nose pinched, and shouted at him: "You are my lord's witch, and you must learn to live without eating or drinking. , it won’t pull.”

"I don't want it!" Little Crescent Moon turned around and walked out along the rough gravel road.

The white deer walked on the top of the dirt wall, stretched out his hands to keep his balance, and followed the little crescent moon not too far or too close.

"Hey, walk slowly." Bailu shouted.

"I don't like it." Little Yueya muttered, "The leader of our tribe, the old man, is sick, and I still have to follow my lady to pick herbs. You don't want to follow me!"

Bailu made a face at him, "You're a boy, you can't say 'other', that's a girl's word."

"Why can't boys say 'other'?" Little Yueya said angrily, "I'm going to talk about me, I'm going to eat and drink, I'm going to stinky! God Lu won't bully Little Yueya, so they ignore you!"

Little Yueya flicked her braids and ran away.The white deer coaxed him to open his mouth several times, but he just put on a small face and silently twisted the straw rope, mixed the feed, and picked the laurel branches for firewood.Like other slave boys, he always had work to do.Madam has been working as a helper in the Grand Master's garden for the past few days, and he has to do a lot of housework.Yesterday he heard from the lady that the leader, the elder, was seriously ill, and this time he might have to sacrifice another group of slaves.He didn't understand what "sacrifice" meant, and the lady said that there would be many uncles, uncles, elder brothers and sisters who would go to see God with the elder.At that time, he looked back at the white deer who was rubbing mud balls outside the mud house, and he didn't understand why they wanted to see this stupid god so much.

"I'll give you a wish, how about it?" The white deer hung upside down from the vine again in front of his eyes, "You are blessed, the young master is omnipotent, you can satisfy everything you want, such as gold, silver, treasures, or beautiful women like clouds." you!"

"Hmph, you're lying." Little Crescent Moon muttered, ignoring him.

"The opportunity is rare, brat." Bailu snorted coldly, "I have lived for thousands of years, but I have only helped one person realize his wish."

As expected, Little Crescent Moon was tempted, and hesitantly put down the laurel branch in her hand.Seeing him like this, Bai Lu was elated, as expected, all spirits are the same, if you give them a little favor, they will naturally join in.Little Yueya raised his face, his eyes were filled with the faint morning light, and he said full of hope: "God Bailu, can you take me to fly high?"

Bai Lu was stunned for a moment. Many years ago, a thin little girl made the same wish to him.

"Why do you make this wish? Gold, silver and jewelry are not good, or you can be a great witch. You have always wanted to be a witch. I can send you to the Bashan Temple."

"I don't want to be that anymore," Little Crescent Moon scratched the ground with a branch, "I'll be a little slave, it's good to be with my lady."

Bailu didn't move for a while, and Little Crescent Moon said angrily, "You really lied to me, God, I'm ignoring you!"

He stood up and was about to leave when a blinding white light lit up over the white deer, and Little Crescent subconsciously blocked his eyes.The white light flashed away, and Little Crescent Moon opened her fingertips slightly, looking there through her fingers.Immediately, his pupils shrank, and he opened his eyes wide in surprise.In front of him was a tall divine deer with a pure white body, as white as snow.Its antlers are full of flowers, strange and magnificent, seeing it is like seeing a myth in a dream.

"Come on," Bai Lu lowered his back, "I will take you flying."

The divine deer carried him and ran towards the bright sky, and the cool wind whizzed around his sleeves and skirts. Like a little dove, he followed the white deer and flew towards the eyebrow-like new moon.He saw the wild geese flying alongside him, the galloping Jialing River, and the ancient mountains and ravines.They flew higher and higher, higher and higher.Until the moon opened its arms to them, and the shimmering moonlight enchantment opened for them, he hugged the white deer's neck tightly, rushed into the moon sky, and rushed into the legendary bright and bright divine realm. The place where Qian Shengmin looks up and longs for.

Qi Yin raised his eyes, and the vast ice field stretched as far as the eye could see, his eyes were filled with vast whiteness, and hundreds of millions of stars hung in the sky, like frozen teardrops.The sacred flower stretches for thousands of miles, and the pale snow color almost blends with the ice field.Trees grown from ice crystals fell scattered on the ice field, their branches twisted and twisted, hanging upside down with crystal clear ice edges.Thousands of brilliant lights condensed in it, and countless Qi Yin's faces were found.

It turns out that this is the moon sky.Qi Yin's heart was surging, he looked at the endless Fulan flowers, and the snow-white world was reflected in his eyes.He suddenly realized that this was the "very high place" that Wu Yuli had mentioned, the territory of the White Deer, which even the heavenly eyes of the gods could not pry into.

He remembered that Wu Yuli said to Fu Lan at that time: "I can't accompany you anymore, you have to endure a long sleep and endless darkness. Maybe one day you will wake up, but maybe, you will never wake up." It was Wu Yuli who brought Fulan's soul here, and used Fulan to test the secret of longevity for him.That's right, it's here, Qi Yin took a deep breath, his brother will be reborn here again in the future.

Seeing such a spectacle for the first time, Little Crescent Moon opened her mouth wide in shock, and then cheered loudly.A child's heart is too small to hold any resentment. Little Crescent Moon reconciled with Bailu. The two boys ran together on the snow field. They didn't know who fell first, so they simply rolled into the snow together, rolling down like wheels of a cart. Poe, then lay side by side in the snowdrift, gasping for breath.

The two of them played in the dark, when the star was low, little crescent moon found two little people carved on the trunk of an ice crystal tree.With only a few strokes, it can be vaguely seen that it is a little boy with antlers, leading a little girl who is a head shorter than him.Little Crescent Moon asked Bai Lu what it was, and Bai Lu touched the notch with a perplexed expression, and said: "This is my friend, she is like you, she made a wish to me and let me take her to fly high. Before you , I’ve only brought her here.”

Little Yueya bent her eyes and said, "Then let's go and play with her!"

"Idiot, you can't find her, she's already dead. Her heart is not good, she died when we were watching the sunrise by the Jialing River." And it was a long time ago It happened a long time ago, at least hundreds of years."

Little Yueya was stunned for a while, he was still ignorant of the word "death", as if he was going to a far, far place.But he noticed another thing. He scratched his head and said, "It's been so long since you brought anyone else to the moon, haven't you made new friends?"

Bailu choked, and snorted, "You mortals are so stupid, how can you be my friend?" He was silent for a while, and finally discouraged, "Yes, yes, I have many witches, but I have no friends .”

Surrounded by white snow, except for the Fulan flower, Qi Yin suddenly understood why Bailu was so obsessed with going down to earth.He is different from other gods, he is not willing to wait for the dusk of the gods alone, he longs for companions.

With crooked eyebrows, Little Crescent Moon stretched out her hand towards him, "Master Bailu, although you always like to play tricks on people, Little Crescent Moon is willing to be your friend!"

Bailu turned his head and gave a very disdainful "tss", "I don't want fools to be my friends."

"Then I will work hard to become smart." Little Crescent Moon vowed.

"Okay," Bailu made a condescending look, "Then I will reluctantly accept you as my friend."

They carved another little figure on the ice crystal tree trunk, holding the white deer's hand and standing beside the white deer.The three children holding hands will stay in the moon sky forever and ever.

Qi Yin felt very uncomfortable watching it. Looking back now, he can basically conclude that Little Crescent Moon is that old thief Wu Yuli.Who would have thought that Boss was so kind when he was young, and no one would dislike such a child with a pure smile and starry eyes.Turning his head, he saw Bailu standing beside him at some point, silently looking at the backs of the two children under the tree.His appearance didn't change from that time, but he gave the impression that he was an old man who saw through his fate.

"Are you okay, Lao Bai?" Qi Yin asked.

"I'm fine," Bai Lu said flatly, "I just really want to die."

Qi Yin: "..."

After that, Little Crescent Moon and White Deer got mixed up completely.The leader of the tribe was seriously ill and dying, and Xiao Yueya's lady was conscripted to repair the tomb, and she had no time to take care of him.Little Crescent Moon follows the white deer over mountains and ridges and across the sea of ​​clouds every day.They went to the Daxue Mountain to watch the avalanche, went to the Jialing River to watch the sunset, and returned to the back mountain of Bashan Mountain they had been to before.Every time they went to a place, they found a place to engrave "the great god Jiang Yang and the witch little crescent moon are here to visit".

It was a dark day with wind and rain, the sky and the earth were dark, and even the moon and the sky dimmed its brilliance.In recent days, Little Crescent Moon has always been very busy, following the adults to transport wood and stones from the mountain, and before the leader died, he seized the time to repair his tomb.Little Yueya has no time to play with him, so Bailu can only wander around by himself.He lay on the moon and counted the stars, and was ready to go down to earth when he counted the hundredth one.When counting the number of pieces, golden light burst out outside the barrier, and big golden eyes appeared among the clouds.

"Don't meddle in mortal affairs, Jiang Yang." Fuxi's voice came into the moon sky.

"Master just made a friend, I don't care about their mundane affairs." Bailu rolled his eyes.

"Your words are unbelievable, Jiang Yang." Fuxi said, "This is not persuasion, but a warning. You are the ancestor god of southern Xinjiang, the ancestor of demons. Your divine power is enough to reverse life and death, and change the world. But you must understand, The gods do not predict the world. Every spirit has its own vitality, and you must not force it to interfere. Otherwise, in the future, you will definitely bring disaster to your people."

What he said was clouded, and Bailu was upset when he heard it, and said: "Young master obeyed your orders, locked in the moon sky for thousands of years and never descended, and let them splatter blood on the bunk under my statue. You and the daughter-in-law Wa regards mortals as your children, but I am different. I made them at the beginning, just to be idle and bored, and get some playmates to come out to play. Tell you, Fuxi, I can do whatever I want, Nanjiang It is my soil, my country, and all the living things on it are subject to my control. Count to three, and get the hell out of me."

Fuxi sighed, and the golden eyes disappeared from the clouds.Bailu rolled over several times in the snow, scratching his hair irritably.

"51, 52... 73, 74, one hundred!" The white deer jumped up, turned into a streamer, and went straight to the Crescent Valley.

He didn't know at that time that when Fuxi came to look for him, the leader of Crescent Moon Valley died, and Little Crescent Moon and more than half of the slaves in Crescent Moon Valley were selected as sacrificed animals.The burial pit had already been dug, and the disheveled slaves were crowded in the tunnel, wearing tattered and threadbare clothes.As if the God couldn't bear to look at it, he turned his face away, and the bluish-white lightning was like twisted white snakes, crawling all over the night.The sky was so dark that it was about to collapse, neither the stars nor the moon could be seen.The lady hugged Xiao Yueya, the rain mixed with her tears, dripping on the top of Xiao Yueya's head.

"Ma'am, what are they doing?" Little Crescent Moon saw the surrounding masters Tian Tan starting to dig the soil, pouring water on them one by one.

"Little Yueya, don't be afraid," the lady hugged him tightly, "We are going to see the Great God Bailu, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Little Crescent Moon is actually not that scared, what she is afraid of is the lady, she is trembling all the time.Little Crescent Moon said: "But Great God Bailu doesn't like to play with adults, he only plays with children."

The lady tremblingly took out a mandala plant from her bosom, "Little Crescent Moon, eat this. After eating this, we will fall asleep, and when we wake up tomorrow morning, we will be in the moon of the White Deer God. "

Little Yueya saw that the uncles and uncles around her began to secretly swallow this kind of flowers, and gradually some people and demons fainted, hugged each other's hands and feet, and shrank into a ball.Little Yueya felt scared after realizing it, and said, "I don't want to eat..."

"Hey, eat quickly."

The lady stuffed the petals into his mouth, and the little crescent chewed hard, her mouth was full of the bitter taste of datura.The lady ate too, and the two of them hugged each other and huddled in the corner of the tunnel.Little Crescent Moon's eyelids are getting heavier and darker, her voice is getting farther and farther away from him, the light and shadow are dissipating, and the world recedes, leaving boundless darkness behind.He seemed to have sunk into deep black water, unable to hear or see, and the earth poured over his head, blocking out the light of the sky.

When Bailu arrived, the pit had already been filled to level ground.The rain was pouring on the yellow mud floor, and the numb faces covered with mud were crowded together, like clay sculptures carved on the ground.Bai Lu's heart became cold, and he leaned down to look one by one, looking for one by one, there was no crescent moon here, and there was no crescent moon there.He dug out the person and the dead monster, and finally he saw that cold, small body, clinging tightly to a woman's arms.

He pulled the man out and carried him back to the cave where he was sheltering from the rain.The person was already stiff, and his body and face were covered with mud.The blood of the gods can live and die, flesh and bones, but it is only limited to the dead who have not died for more than two hours, and the soul has not been reincarnated.The white deer patted his face and said: "Little Yueya, I have very few friends, don't die, don't die." So he pulled out his heart's blood, opened Xiao Yueya's mouth, and dripped it into his lips and teeth.

That was simply the longest wait in Bailu's life. After an unknown amount of time, little Yueya finally woke up. She had just come back to life, but her hands and feet were still stiff and unable to move.He murmured to Madam, still at a loss in his heart.Bai Lu explained to him bit by bit, and it took a long time before he realized that the lady didn't go to see Bai Lu, she was dead and disappeared forever.He wanted to wail loudly, but his body was too weak and he didn't even have the strength to cry. He just opened his eyes wide and looked at the white deer and wept.

The rain was pattering outside, and the world was dripping with mud, making it a mess.Little Yueya hugged her knees and asked softly, "Master Bailu, why do people die?"

"Because everything has an end, little crescent moon."

"Will I die in the future too?"

"Yes." Bai Lu said, "One day you will close your eyes forever, and your soul will float to the Milky Way and cross the sea of ​​stars in the River of Forgetfulness. On that day, you will see your lady, she will be waiting on the other side of the River of Forgetfulness. You, take your hand and take you back to the place where you were before you were born."

"Are you going to die too?"

"Yes, we're all going to die."

Little Crescent Moon was silent for a long time, only tears burst into her face.He finally said: "Great God Bailu, you said before that you would send me to be a witch, does that still count?"

"Do you want to go to Bashan?"

Little Crescent Moon nodded, "God Bailu, there are still many Little Crescent Moons in this world who were buried like me and were taken away. So I want to become the most powerful witch in the world, and I want to issue a decree to make Nanjiang The chiefs and great masters of the village will no longer be buried with slaves. I want to protect the other little crescents, thousands of little crescents, so that they will never lose their maidens." Little crescent said with tears, "God Bailu, I can go to Be a great witch?"

In the darkness, the two of them looked at each other. The eyes of this bereaved child were full of sadness, but they were still so pure, like a brilliant sea of ​​stars, containing all the sufferings of life and death.

Bailu said, "Okay."

Bailu summoned Wu Wuheng, the great god at that time, in the language of God, and Qi Yin recognized him as the old sinner who told him Wu Yuli's name in the tomb of God Bailu.Bailu asked him to adopt Xiao Yueya as his adoptive son, and took Xiao Yueya to the Bashan Temple.The morning light is faint, the sky and the earth are clear, and the distant mountains are like a stream of wet eyebrows.Wu Heng took Little Yueya's hand and walked out, and Little Yueya kept looking back at the lonely white deer hiding behind the flowers and leaves.

"I will study scriptures and learn spells hard, will you come to see me?" Little Crescent Moon cried.

Bailu didn't say a word, and silently watched him go.

"You must come to see me!" Little Crescent Moon waved vigorously at him, "You must come!"

Walking to the mountain road, Wu Heng called out the bone-chopping knife, and put Little Crescent Moon on the back of the knife.He was lured by the words of God, and he only knew that he must bring the child back to the temple and take care of him to grow up.

"Son, do you have a name?"

"My name is Little Crescent Moon." The child lowered his head and squeezed his hands.

"Sorcerer and witch can't use such casual nicknames," Wu Heng glanced at the lush green bamboo forest on the edge of the cliff, "Bamboo Day Yuli, you should be called Yuli."

Qi Yin looked at their backs flying away with a complicated expression.

From now on, that immature child is no longer Little Crescent Moon, but one of the thousands of witches in the Bashan Temple——Wu Yuli.
