After Hei Qingming left, Xue Nu set off all the way south.

According to the information obtained from Arakawa mouth, the girl who picked up the water pearl was not an ordinary girl but a monster. Transformation, so this monster is also a monster generated by "protecting" and "cherishing".

It is obviously the most undesirable method to deal with such monsters. Maybe the more you want to seize them, the stronger their power will be. So Yuki made up her mind at the beginning to approach them in a friendly manner and test them out. character and attitude, and then decide which method is better to use stealing and abducting in the next step.

According to the information provided by Arakawa, the monster girl probably lives in a forest in the southern river area of ​​Arakawa, but the exact location is not clear, so the snow girl had to go all the way south along the Arakawa River.

At this time, the sky had not yet dawned, and the surrounding area by the Arakawa River was pitch black. However, the eyesight of monsters is several times better than that of humans, so even if there is no light around her except for the faint moonlight overhead that can be ignored, she Can barely see the surrounding situation.

From ancient times to the present, the development of human villages has always been inseparable from water sources, and ancient Japan was no exception.Snow Girl went all the way south along the Arakawa River, and she saw a lot of villages developed on both sides of the Arakawa River, ranging in size from small to large, and many altars were built on the banks of the river, as if to enshrine the Lord of Arakawa who guarded them.

Seeing this, Xue Nu curled her lips in disdain.He felt that these villagers had really fed their feelings to the dogs, and it would be good if Arakawa didn't drown them when he got angry, how could he protect human beings.However...she thought of the developing villages she saw along the way. Although it is not the same thing to protect human beings, the development of so many villages in the Arakawa River Basin must be attributed to the Lord of Arakawa, because After all, the Lord of Arakawa is the overlord of Arakawa. Although his original intention was not to protect human beings, he has always guarded the order and peace of Arakawa. He is the ruler and guardian of Arakawa.

Only in such a peaceful environment can better prosperity develop.

Thinking of this, she felt a little complicated, but her thoughts about the Lord of Arakawa changed somewhat.

The snow girl walked along the river bank at a faster speed, hoping to find the forest before dawn. It doesn't matter if it's the forest where the monster girl is, anyway, it's good to avoid the eyes and ears of humans, and she really wants to find a place to rest. From the beginning of arguing with Ootengu about the small garden to the Shura field and then following Kuro Seimei to Arakawa, too many things happened in one night and she didn't get any rest time. Now she is so tired that she wants to find a place to lie down Just fell asleep.

She suddenly thought of what Hei Qingming and Ootengu had complained to her, that they were monsters but still relied on the physiological needs of these human beings. At this time, she also murmured in her heart, why did she get tired so easily.

Fortunately, Japan thousands of years ago was relatively primitive, and there were many forests everywhere.Xuenv picked the nearest grove and hid in it before dawn to rest for a while, inquired with other monsters in the forest about the monster girl, and then set off again at night.

Monsters are very persistent and sensitive to their territory. When outsiders invade their territory, they will show strong hostility and even attack. Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, Yuki began to release monster energy and cold energy when she first entered the forest. This intensity of monster energy is enough To make those monsters dare not come forward, of course, there will inevitably be some bold and aggressive ones, and sending a few blizzards can solve it perfectly.

Xuenv didn't go too deep into the forest, because the deeper the monsters were, the more powerful they would be. She didn't go to kick the restaurant, she just wanted to rest quietly for a while.

She randomly picked a taller tree and easily flew up the thicker branches, covered her mouth and yawned, and was about to sit down and close her eyes against the tree trunk to catch up on sleep when suddenly, in this quiet and dark forest, A ray of blue candlelight flickered in the distance, flickering on and off, as if approaching her all the way.

Xue Nu looked at the candlelight in the distance for a moment, and immediately became vigilant, because she felt that the opponent's evil spirit seemed to be not comparable to those ordinary little monsters before, at least he was a difficult monster of SR level or above.

who is it?

Xue Nu stood on the tree and looked at the approaching light. She unconsciously restrained her evil spirit and held her breath. Watching the cold light slowly approaching her direction from far away, the flickering light It also gradually became clear that Xue Nu was sure that the visitor was coming for her.

As the candlelight approached slowly, relying on the faint green light, Xuenv finally saw the person's figure clearly. It was a woman with a good face, but her complexion was abnormally pale, and she looked a bit miserable under the faint green candlelight. and she leaned against a lamp handle made up of a dozen blue butterflies, showing a bit of laziness and enchantment.

Green Lantern.

Xue Nu recognized who was coming, but she didn't know the purpose of Qing Xing Deng, so she could only continue to hide in the tree for the time being.

Qing Xingdeng sat on the butterfly candle lamp and slowly swayed all the way to the big tree where she was, looking around with her beautiful eyes.

"I know you're nearby, come out." After a moment of silence, she suddenly spoke.

Listening to Qing Xingdeng's words on the tree, Xuenv paused for breath, knowing that she couldn't hide anymore, she simply jumped down with her fingertips and stood in front of Qing Xingdeng.

Qing Xingdeng laid his hands on the butterfly, his green eyes glanced at her lightly, suddenly, she smiled at her, and said:

"I felt a familiar aura coming over, and it really was you, Xiao Xuenv."

"what?"

Listening to Qing Xingdeng speaking to her in a somewhat intimate tone, Xue Nu was a little confused for a moment.

What?Does she know Qingxing Deng?

She began to search the past memories overwhelmingly in her mind. She knew the simple information about Qing Xing Deng, but there was no memory about her acquaintance with Qing Xing Deng.

Seeing her blank expression, Qing Xingdeng supported one cheek with one hand, and said sadly: "It seems that you don't remember me? But it's only ten years, it's too sad."

"..."

This is so embarrassing, she really doesn't know Qing Xingdeng at all, why did she meet her ten years ago!

etc--

Seemingly aware of something, Xuenv suddenly paused, she was reborn less than half a year ago, it is impossible to know Qing Xingdeng, but what if... the Xuenv before her rebirth?

Thinking of this, Xuenv suddenly felt a little dazed. She had always thought that she died and transmigrated to this world and became a Xuenv, but if...according to Qing Xingdeng, who knew Xuenv ten years ago, it means that Xuenv was born ten years ago. exist?In other words, she didn't 'become' Yuki, but 'replaced' Yuki?

Thinking of this possibility that she had never thought about before, Xue Nu was frightened by the huge amount of information that she suddenly sorted out.

Qing Xingdeng raised his beautiful eyes, took in Xue Nu's expression, then looked around her a few times, curled his lips and said in a teasing tone: "Hey, haven't you been inseparable from Dai Tengu all this time?" Why, why didn't you see that handsome big tengu young man this time?"

"!!!???"

Xue Nu was immediately stunned by such a more informative sentence.Etc., etc!Ten years ago, Qing Xingdeng saw Yukio and Daitengu together? ?Still inseparable?

"you you……"

Xuenv was so shocked that she couldn't even speak fluently, she was constantly translating and analyzing Qing Xingdeng's words in her mind.Didn't the big tengu only know her three months ago?Um?Is that big tengu not this big tengu?Did Qing Xingdeng admit the wrong person?

The more she thought about it, the more chaotic she became, Xue Nu suddenly felt a little pain in her head.

"Well……"

Qing Xingdeng hummed meaningfully, she suddenly squinted her eyes and took a few steps closer to her, then looked her up and down.

"Speaking of which, it's indeed a little bit different... Yin Qi..."

As if she saw something, she murmured to herself, then sat on the butterfly with her chin in one hand and meditated for a moment, suddenly, as if she thought of something, her faint green eyes suddenly lit up He got up, looked up at her seriously for a while again, and finally smiled a few times with a clear understanding.

"So that's the case, could it be that time..."

Um? ?

From the beginning to the end, Xue Nu didn't dare to say a word and stood there with a dazed expression. She was afraid that if she said more, she would make a mistake and expose something, so silence was golden.

Qing Xingdeng seemed to have realized something by herself, and she leaned on the butterfly again, looking lazy again.

"Since that's the case, then just treat me as the wrong person, little girl, we regret it." After speaking, Qing Xingdeng didn't say anything more, but just gave her a meaningful look, and then turned around and walked back.

"Wait." Seeing that Qing Xingdeng was about to leave, Xue Nu, who was still confused, quickly stopped her: "That... ten years ago..."

Qing Xingdeng turned his head slightly, but he didn't turn his head to look at her completely. The eerie green light illuminated half of her outline, making her look very soft and beautiful.

"Don't say it, don't say it, you will know in the future. Xiao Xuenv, I will tell you next time you meet me."

"Okay..." Since Qing Xingdeng didn't seem willing to tell her, Xue Nu couldn't ask any more.She suddenly thought of the purpose of this trip, and while Qing Xingdeng was still standing still, she quickly asked: "Then do you know if there is a monster girl who likes to collect things around here?"

"Collecting things? You mean a box?" Qing Xingdeng turned to look at her this time.

Of course Xue Nu didn't know who A Xia was, but her sixth sense told her that the person she was looking for must be this A Xia!

"Yes, that's her. Do you know where she is?" She nodded quickly.

Qing Xingdeng looked at her with slightly squinted eyes, and suddenly smiled: "Of course I know, she is also a lonely little girl, she always comes to me to tell stories when she is bored, is Xiao Xuenv looking for her?"

"Hmm." She nodded.

Seeing her nodding, Qing Xingdeng seemed to hesitate for a while, then stretched out his hand and stretched out a finger towards the butterfly below him, only to see one of the smaller blue butterflies fluttering its wings twice and flew to her slender white finger.She stretched out the butterfly towards her, and the butterfly on her finger moved, and Xue Nu flew towards her, flying around her twice.

"I'll let Qingdie take you there. When Ah Xia sees Qingdie, he must know that you are someone I know."

Xue Nu's heart moved slightly, she didn't expect Qing Xingdeng to help her so much, with Qing Xingdeng's guidance, she directly saved a lot of trouble, maybe it would be easier to get water pearls.

"Thank you." She looked up at Qing Xingdeng and said sincerely.

Qing Xingdeng didn't say anything, just smiled at her, then sat on the butterfly lamp and disappeared into the darkness of the forest again.

Xue Nu looked at the direction where Qing Xing Deng disappeared. Although many questions arose in her heart at this time, about Qing Xing Deng, about ten years ago, but at this time she should pay more attention to the current affairs.She looked up at the blue butterfly that had been flying around her, and suddenly sighed in her heart.It seems that there is no rest today.

With the help of Qingdie from Qingxingdeng, Xuenv followed Qingdie's guidance without rest and quickly found another forest three or four kilometers south of the forest where Qingxingdeng was located.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the morning light shone into the forest through the gaps between the branches and leaves, dispelling the coolness brought by the whole night, and the air in the forest was cool and humid in the morning, with the smell of earth and grass, the little hare and Little squirrels and some unnamed small animals have quietly come out to look for food in the morning dew, and the forest is full of business at this time.

Xuenv followed Qingdie all the way into the forest, and a monster girl named A Xia was living in a tree house deep in the forest.

Xue Nu stood in front of the tree house, and she looked inside for a few times, but she couldn't see anything. She wanted to call out, but she didn't know what to say.

Just when she was struggling, A Xia seemed to have sensed her aura, and following a few jingling sounds, a very delicate and lovely girl with white hair and a puppet in her hands opened the bamboo curtain and came out .

"Who?"

The girl's tone was flat, and the expression on her delicate and lovely face was also very flat, but there was a little doubt in the golden eyes looking at her.She sized Xue Nu's eyes, and suddenly saw the blue butterfly resting on Xue Nu's shoulder.

"Master Qing Xingdeng's Blue Butterfly? You are..."

"My name is Xue Nu, and I am Qing Xingdeng...My lord guided me to find you."

She decided to hide her purpose first, and then reveal her purpose after getting acquainted, so as not to arouse A Xia's resentment at the beginning.

"Huh?" A-Xia tilted her head slightly, and the white hair slipped from her shoulders. She raised her hand to please stroke a strand, and then smiled slightly at her: "Did you come to play with me?"

Play?

Xuenv noticed this word, she thought that Qing Xingdeng said before that this is a lonely girl, that is to say, as long as it can make Ah Xia feel not lonely and happy?

Thinking of this, Xuenv, who has been playing with her professionally for 100 years, showed a confident smile, jokingly, thinking that the problem boy Hannya who had always been hostile to her had been taken down by her, so how difficult it would be to take down such a cute girl!Trifle!

"Okay, what do you want to play?" She smiled at A Xia with a friendly and amiable tone.

The smile in A Xia's eyes deepened, and the brows that had always been calm were stretched, as if very happy.

"That's great. I like the stories Master Qing Xingdeng gave me that I have never heard before. Can you tell stories?"

Hearing A Xia's words, the smile on Xue Nu's face became more cordial. Is it possible that telling stories as a time-traveling girl is rare for her?Those that don’t exist, those that don’t exist, such as One Hundred and One Nights, Grimm’s Fairy Tales, Aesop’s Fables, etc. can make them stunned, okay?It is much easier to deal with than Prajna!

"Of course it will! Definitely something you've never heard of."

Xue Nu was warmly invited by A Xia into her small wooden house. The small wooden house is very simple and neatly furnished. Presumably, there is nothing necessary to be a monster, but there is a very conspicuous big box in the wooden house.It is said that the box is somewhat literary, because if it is based on the shape, Xue Nu thinks it is more like a big tank...

That is not an ordinary box, she can feel the evil spirit, it seems that it should be a symbiotic thing with A-Xia, A-Xia has collected so many items and did not see it in the house, it is only possible that there is that box bingo.

"I can't wait, what kind of story will you tell me?"

A Xia walked to the side of the box, lightly tapped her feet and jumped to sit on top of the box, stroking the puppet in her hand with one hand, while tilting her head and looking at Xue Nu curiously.

Xue Nu looked back at A Xia, she found a wooden stool beside her and sat down, coughed twice, and then began to conscientiously tell stories to A Xia.From Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales to Grimm's fairy tales to childhood classic animations, he racked his brains to tell all the stories that sound more vivid.A Xia seems to have never heard this type of story, so she listened very carefully the whole time, which gave the storyteller Xue Nu a sense of accomplishment.

Because the backgrounds of the characters in these European fairy tales may not be understood by A Xia, in order to increase the sense of substitution, Yuki also deliberately replaced the backgrounds of some characters with Japanese backgrounds, such as the king of the seabed in Daughter of the Sea replaced by the river god.So when Ah Xia heard it, he rarely showed a surprised expression and asked in doubt:

"Is it the Lord of Arakawa? When did the Lord of Arakawa have seven daughters?"

Snow Maiden: "..."

Xue Nu didn't know how to reply for a while, and when she was about to deny it, she thought about it, bringing in such a real person might make A Xia more interested in listening, so she nodded quickly, He generously admitted that he was the Lord of Arakawa, so the Lord of Arakawa became a middle-aged man with seven daughters.

Next, Yukino turned on the mode of bringing in the Japanese ghosts. Not only Arakawa became a victim, but Shuten-douji, Ibaraki-douji, Yoshitohime, Daitengu, Peach Blossom Demon, Sakura Demon and other monsters were doomed.

Shuten-douji was abused by his stepmother when he was still a human being because of his too beautiful appearance, Yaodao Ji is actually a human being but cursed, as long as he meets someone who loves her and kisses her, he will turn back into a human being, how the three Kamaitachi brothers outwitted the big bad wolf.

Instead of telling stories, it is better to say that it has become gossip, although it is all made up...

But gossip does increase the number of friendships between women. After such a few stories, A Xia can't help but listen to them with great interest, and it also brings the relationship between the two closer. few.

"Hehehe, the story of Ibaraki Doji and 44 Onmyoji is very interesting. I like this one the most. Are there any more?"

After listening to how Ibaraki Doji fights against 44 Onmyoji, Ah Xia smiles brightly while hugging the puppet doll, and looks completely different from the cold and indifferent girl at the beginning.

Xue Nu licked the dry corners of her lips, and said warmly: "Of course, but let's rest first, it won't be interesting to finish talking all at once."

A Xia tilted his head and thought for a while, and seemed to think it made sense, so he nodded with a smile: "Okay, let's talk about it next time."

Seeing A Xia nodding, Xue Nu finally breathed a sigh of relief. She felt that she would not be able to make up any more. Now she sincerely hoped that all the above stories would never be spread, otherwise she was afraid that she would die a miserable death... …

She looked up at A-Xiao who was sitting on the box and dangling her feet, and looked down slightly at the box below her. After hesitating for a moment, she smiled and said to her:

"Speaking of which, I heard Master Qing Xingdeng said that you like to collect things very much. I just told so many stories with A Xia, how about A Xia tell me what you have collected?"

When A Xia heard it, she didn't feel embarrassed at all, and nodded generously, "Okay, A Xue just told me so many interesting stories, I like A Xue very much, of course."
