That night, Ah Xuan slept very deeply, until she felt the uncomfortable jolts from time to time, she became a little conscious in the dimness.

Wait, she clearly remembered that she fell asleep in her own room, why did she feel bumpy?

When she realized this unusual feeling, Ah Lie was agitated and wanted to get up, but her eyelids were so heavy that she felt drowsy.

How could this be?

Although I felt that I slept exceptionally well last night, but it is not enough to be sleepy at this point. What is going on?

He obviously wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't do it. Even if he moved his fingers, his limbs felt weak and his whole body was weak.

Ah Xuan tried her best to fight against this strange drowsiness, and it took a lot of effort to prop up her body staggeringly amidst the jolting sensation.

Rubbing her eyelids that could not be opened, she stood up slowly, the thin blanket covering her body slipped off with the movement, and after a short period of adaptation, Ah Chen finally saw her environment clearly.

The space is very narrow and rectangular, with a small wooden window on each side, and even a small cabinet at hand. The bamboo curtains in front of you can be seen vaguely.

Fortunately, the light inside was dim, so it didn't take long for Ah Xuan to adapt.

Looking at the layout, it looks like the legendary...an ox cart?

But she obviously lived in the courtyard with the big tengu, why did she wake up in the bullock cart?

If the big tengu wants to take her out, he will definitely inform her in advance, and the big tengu has always used flying, and he will never use a human transportation like a bullock cart.

During the time she was asleep, what happened?

Could it be that something unexpected happened?

No, if she was taken away by someone, then it is impossible for the big tengu to sit idly by. With the strength of the big tengu, it is impossible to watch her being taken away.

There is also a possibility that the fact that she was taken away was acquiesced by the big dog.

how can that be possible?

As soon as this inference came out, Ah Xuan subconsciously wanted to deny it.

The big tengu acquiesced in her being taken away, which meant——

The big tengu wants her to leave.

why?

But now it seems that only this inference is the most reasonable.

Why are you staying in this bullock cart?

Why did the big tengu let her go?

Where are these two carriages going?

……

All kinds of questions flashed through Ah Xuan's mind, but none of them could be answered.

Tsk, instead of just sitting there waiting to die, I'm thinking hard here alone, and I can't get an answer even if I try my best.Might as well ask directly.

Thinking of this, Ah Lie simply stretched out her hand to lift the bamboo curtain, and as expected, she saw the back of a person.

Wearing a vertebral cap, with long hair tied high into a ponytail, he looks like a traveler.

This outfit is really too familiar.

It was this man who knocked on the courtyard door early yesterday morning.

"Yuan... Boya?"

She didn't speak for a long time, her voice was hoarse and thin as a mosquito, Ah Xuan struggled to read the name of the person in front of her.

The tiny sound couldn't hide the warrior's sensitive hearing, Yuan Boya reined in the horse and stopped the carriage when he heard Ah Xuan's voice.

After doing this series of actions, Yuan Boya took off the vertebral cap on his head, turned his head to look at Ah Xun, and when he met Ah Xun's obviously puzzled eyes, he scratched his head somewhat uncomfortably.

The two stared at each other for quite a while before he coughed a few times and said as briskly as possible: "You're awake, Ah Xuan."

Looking at Yuan Boya who was obviously evasive, Ah Xuan didn't intend to let him go: "What's going on?"

"Hey, don't look at me with such strange eyes, I didn't plan this!" Yuan Boya waved his hands again and again to show his innocence.

Ah Xuan didn't speak, just stared at him silently.

It was another round of staring at each other, and finally Yuan Boya was the first to be defeated, with an expression of 'lost to you', covering his face with his hands: "It's a big tengu..."

"He..." Yuan Boya organized his words, trying not to irritate Ah Xuan as much as possible, "He suddenly wrote to me, saying that he wanted me to bring you back to the human world..."

As he spoke, he took a sneak peek at Ah Xuan's expression, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became: "He said, it's not suitable for you to stay by his side when you're an adult. Human beings have different paths, and you should have your own life..."

Even he didn't believe it, which was obviously just an excuse.

Ah Xuan listened to Yuan Boya's words, lowered her head, and didn't open her mouth until he finished speaking intermittently, "What's the reason?"

Yuan Boya broke into a cold sweat when he heard Ah Chen's voice without ups and downs: "I have asked him this several times, but he refused to answer me, he just insisted..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ah Xuan interrupted him: "I understand, where are you taking me?"

"Huh? Uh...Kyoto."

There was another long silence, and Yuan Boya stayed with Ah Xuan all the time, waiting for her to digest the sudden news.

Sending people away after the coming-of-age ceremony or something, the big tengu is really...

Yuan Boya was thinking about how to make Ah Xuan accept all this, when suddenly he saw Ah Xuan raised his head, clasped his hands by his mouth, and made a trumpet shape.

Why?What is this for?

Then he saw Ah Xie took a deep breath and roared out loudly.

"Big Tengu, you are the No. [-] bastard!!!"

Ah Xuan felt that this sentence seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she had never spoken so loudly in her life.

Without looking at Yuan Boya's expression, he directly pulled down the bamboo curtain, wrapped himself in a thin blanket, and sat in a corner of the carriage.

Obviously a non-cooperative look.

Yuan Boya rubbed his ears pierced by the sudden increase in decibels, jumped out of the bullock cart, sat down under a thick shade of a tree, and waited for Ah Chen to recover.

Ah Lie in the bullock cart wrapped herself tightly in a blanket and huddled in a corner without saying a word.

The light in the carriage was dim, and even though Ah Xuan didn't like to stay in a dark and small space, she was more at ease in such an environment than being exposed to the sun.

Calm down, Auntie.

You are already an adult, not a teenage child who will cry because the big tengu left, and can't find the way forward.

Look, Ootengu didn't abandon you, he even contacted Yuan Boya and took care of everything before you knew it, so there's nothing to complain about.

It's just a person leaving the banquet from your life. You have to get used to parting. There is no permanent feast in the world, and no one will always be with you.

Ootengu will also have something he wants to do, maybe, he is just tired of playing house games with you.

What we should do now is not lose our temper, but obediently listen to Yuan Boya and go to Kyoto with him.

Didn't you expect this day?Now it's just a prediction that has come true, so what's there to be sad about?

Don't you already understand?

……

Then why, why do you want to cry so much?

The girl who wrapped herself tightly in a thin blanket buried her head between her knees, her slender shoulders trembling slightly.

Ah Xuan bit her lower lip tightly, not letting herself make a sound, but even so, there were still small sobs overflowing from her throat.

A drop of tear fell on the wooden board, making a small 'click' sound. The tears scattered on the wooden board and slowly soaked into it, leaving only a little mottled water mark, like an ugly stain on the wooden board. Wound.

Drop after drop, even though she tried to restrain her emotions, they fell from the sockets uncontrollably.

She knew very well in her heart that how could a monster like a big tengu accompany a small human being foolishly and unconditionally raise her for so long.

There will always be a day when you get bored.

But even knowing this, 'knowing' and 'don't care' are two different concepts.

Even though she knew it was only the probability of an asteroid hitting the earth, Ah Xie still selfishly begged——

It would be nice if this kind of life could continue.

Such a good monster as Daitengu, who can be held and cared by him in the palm of his hand, shouldn't be her who doesn't even have the ability to protect herself and is extremely fragile.

He deserves to be better, smarter, more diligent, and more considerate, not her with many shortcomings.

If anyone can become a child of Ootengu, he must have saved the world in his previous life.

How lucky she was to have the stolen seven years.

Ah Xie knew very well that she was crying not because Daitengu entrusted her to Yuan Boya, but because Daitengu never said goodbye properly.

I'm not such an ignorant person, as long as you make it clear, I will never pester you.

But the big tengu never told her, nor asked her opinion, and even when the matter came to an end, Ah Xie didn't know everything until after we had been separated for a long time.

Since she can prepare her coming-of-age ceremony with such care, why is she so stingy with a good farewell, even a "goodbye"?

Just hate her that much?Do you just want her to go far away?

"Big liar, cheapskate..."

In the small space of the bullock cart, there was only a murmur so small that only the girl could hear it.

After Ah Xuan settled down her emotions and made sure that there was nothing unusual in her voice, she called out, "Bo Ya."

Yuan Boya, who was lying in the shade, heard the voice, sat up suddenly, and spat out the grass roots in his mouth: "Is there something wrong?"

At such a time, it's better not to poke the little girl's wound, as the nonchalant attitude will not irritate Ah Ling.

Hearing Yuan Boya's usual voice, Ah Xuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She cried just now, and her current appearance is really not suitable for seeing people. If Yuan Boya broke the casserole and asked the bottom line, she would only feel too embarrassed.

"It's nothing. I've figured it out, let's go to Kyoto."

Ah Xuan's voice couldn't tell the emotion, so Yuan Boya could only respond well.

In any case, since Ah Xuan said that he had figured it out, he shouldn't worry about it.

Yuan Boya sighed, raised his whip and continued driving.

When the bullock cart drifted away, all the dust raised by the wheels returned to silence. The treetops not far from the place where the bullock cart stopped before suddenly had no wind, the treetops moved lightly, and the leaves rubbed against each other and rustled.

A pitch-black feather fluttered down from among the green leaves.

The forest has returned to tranquility, only the occasional chirping of birds brings a little life.

The author has something to say: Gouzi is officially offline at this point, and the next chapter will enter the copy of Ping An Jing.

I forgot to mention it in the last chapter, so I’ll make it up here. The setting of the 13-year-old monster comes from "The Grandson of the Slick Ghost". It is a very interesting anime about monsters. If you are interested, you can check it out.

I don’t know if there is a point that everyone understands, that is, at the beginning, Ah Yuan pulled the clothes of Ootengu. At that time, Ootengu could pull it away, but he didn’t do so. Instead, he chose to wait for Ootengu to wake up.

At the end of the last chapter, the big tengu took the initiative to tear off the sleeves after Ah Chen fell asleep.

I am very slow, I don't know if anyone understands this point...

It's similar, but the mood is completely different.

The demon fox will probably have to wander around for a while, feeling miserable...

There will be scenes behind the big tengu, trust me!
