There was a lot of voices in the distance, but everything around Mao Xiaohua was quiet.

The stars are twinkling, unchanged from time immemorial, under the snow-capped mountains, in the icy river, a handsome man is lying comfortably on a big rock in the middle of the river, letting the cold water flow slowly by his side.

The white leopard lay beside him, licking its fur wholeheartedly, trying to lick the water off its body as soon as possible.

"Finally, I can be alone with you!" Luo Huan sighed, touching the soft fur on Mao Xiaohua's body, feeling the smoothness flowing from his fingertips to the most comfortable place in his heart.

And Mao Xiaohua was already used to this kind of touching, he rubbed his head against Luo Huan's face, enjoying this rare moment of peace and tranquility.

"You are my partner, my friend! You are qualified to stand by my side forever!" Luo Huan held Mao Xiaohua's head and kissed his nose lightly.

The leopard was very happy with the kiss, and lay sprawled on the big rock, looking up at the stars.

The stars in the sky are particularly bright, and the Milky Way surrounded by nebula, at this moment, is like a gentle cradle, surrounding the two of them and shaking gently.

The white ice floes occasionally flowed past Luo Huan, and his young body didn't feel the cold, but just felt comfortable.

He put his hand on the leopard's belly, and the leopard used its furry paws to hook Luohuan's light brown curly hair.

The sound of the stream, the cheers in the distance, the sound of music, and the fireworks scattered in the sky from time to time all became the background.

At this moment, the hustle and bustle of the world seems to be far away, leaving only one person and one leopard under the starlight.

This is the last night of the old year. At the beginning of this year, Mao Xiaohua, who was desperate, bumped into Luo Huan's carriage, and the two met.

And at the end of this year, Mao Xiaohua, who is a leopard, is almost an adult, and nothing can hurt him easily.

He lay quietly and comfortably beside Luo Huan on this night of victory, feeling unprecedentedly at ease.

The two stayed here for an unknown amount of time, until the fanatical crowd gradually dispersed, and Luo Huan jumped up from the river, dried himself, and returned to the city with Mao Xiaohua.

Alan Acropolis was having a carnival at night. They already knew who the champion was this time, and many people had prepared their own gifts for this time's warrior.

Therefore, when Luo Huan showed up with the leopard in a crowded place, his hands were quickly filled with various things.

Human beings wear the most clothes. Luo Huan picked one at random to keep out the cold, but there are other things.

Food, shoes, daggers, and a crown made of olive branches, and even...a walking stick that only old women can use.

Mao Xiaohua also received many gifts from these enthusiastic people.

That was the trophies given to the champion by the residents of Alanwei.

The big bag of beef, the leopard's clothes, the comb for grooming, and the food bowls made of various colored ceramics made Mao Xiaohua unable to hold it down.So Luo Huan helped him hold it.

When one person and one leopard walked to Alanwei College, those gifts had already bent their backs. Even Luo Huan, who was as strong as Luo Huan, felt that there were too many things and it was very tiring to resist.

But he doesn't need to worry about these things at all, because... there are many friends who will help him share these gifts.

After changing the environment, the students of the college finally calmed down a lot, and they were no longer interested in embracing the champion and the underwear of the champion. They gathered together and discussed everything about the sports meeting politely, from the sports meeting to The battlefield, chatting from the battlefield to the college, and finally looking up at the starry sky, the topic is more loose and boundless.

This kind of party is not over until the New Year's bell rings.

Many students in the Alan Acropolis got up and returned to their homes at this moment.

Even the students from nearby towns rode their horses back home after participating in the sports meet and celebrating the final victory.

Except for students like Luo Huan who are far away from home, few people will stay in the academy.

That night, when Lan Rada, the son of the consul, returned to his home, Luo Huan was the only one left in the dormitory.

Although Lan Lada said that Mao Xiaohua can sleep in her own bed, the leopard still hopes to be able to follow its owner, and put its tail on Luo Huan's belly to feel the warmth from his body.

Mao Xiaohua can never forget the feeling of being a human, but now, he gradually likes being a leopard.

Because, with such a person by my side, I can run, fight, win honors, and sleep with myself.

Early the next morning, Luo Huan took Mao Xiaohua to visit Professor Asdoratu, who was also at the school.

Asdoratu's home is Mao Xiaohua's favorite place to go. There are three floors, and thick books are piled up on each floor.

Leopard was not interested in Asdoratu's boring and lengthy conversations with Luo Huan. He went straight up to the third floor and lay down on the ground looking at the murals painted on the dome.

This is Mao Xiaohua's favorite thing.

Those colorful and skillful paintings made Mao Xiaohua intoxicated and admired; and the stories described in those murals made Mao Xiaohua sigh.

Those are some myths and legends. Mao Xiaohua has read them many times. There are tragic heroes who kill their father and marry their mother. But because of incest with each other, they were punished by God.

Among these stories, the one that troubled him the most, the most depressed, and the most painful was one of the murals, a mythical story about a leopard.

It was an ordinary leopard. When it was born, it looked up at the sky and saw the sun god Aai driving across the sky in a chariot.

The first time it saw Aai, it was attracted by that god and developed a feeling of love.

But God Aai didn't know that there was a leopard on the ground who loved him. He drove through the sky day after day, and the leopard squatted on the mound day after day, looking at the sky.

It wasn't until one day that God Aai fell into the river with the sun because his chariot was damaged, and they finally met for the first time.

Because the leopard was illuminated by the light of God, from a low-level beast to a young man.

When the young man appeared in front of God Aai and used all his strength to help him repair the chariot, the two fell in love.

God Aai stayed on the earth for a year, with his lover, but there was no sun in the sky.

One year later, all things withered and life withered, God Aai had no choice but to leave. He promised his lover that he would definitely come back to see him. After the two vowed never to be apart, God Aai returned to the heaven.

The leopard, which lost the protection of the divine light, once again changed from a human to its original form.

It squatted on the mound every day, waiting for its lover to come back, but it waited year after year, but it never waited for God Aai to return again.

In the end, its body turned into a huge leopard-shaped mountain, with its head still facing the sun, as if asking why you didn't keep your promise.

The poor leopard will never know that God Aai is looking for his lover as soon as he returns to the sky.

Every day, this god drove through the sky on a chariot, looking for the boy he loved in every corner of the world, and wanted to illuminate him with his divine light.

But since he left the ground, he has never seen that boy again.

All he could see was a leopard squatting on the mound, constantly looking at the sky.

It was not until many, many years later that God Aai finally found a chance to come down. He searched the sky for so long, but he couldn't find his beloved boy, thinking that he had passed away.

But when he landed on the ground and saw the leopard that had turned into rocks, he suddenly realized that the lover he was looking for had been watching him all the time.

It turned out that it was only because I was too far away that I couldn't see the truth clearly.Just because I have too many responsibilities, I want to drive the sun forward, and I missed countless days and nights that could have been together.

At that moment, the god vowed never to leave his lover again.

He slept forever in front of that leopard-shaped rock and never woke up again.

The sky was dim, and it wasn't until a hundred years later that another god took his place and became the new sun god, and the world began to revolve again.

This myth about the leopard from El makes Mao Xiaohua feel very sad.

What is sad is not because of the tragic ending of the story, nor is it because of the constant misses that cannot be together.

The only reason why Mao Xiaohua felt depressed about this story was--damn, an ordinary leopard can turn into a human being, why did I, a real person, become a leopard! !
