Si will still lie down on the grass to bask in the sun when the weather is nice, waiting for the day when a human cub comes to sit next to it.
It turned its head and saw, somewhat amusedly, the human cub staring at the river below with a serious expression on his face.
...
However, day by day passed, and Si never waited for the arrival of the human cub.
...
The breath around Si's body was a little low.
It doesn't understand why the human cubs aren't coming?
I thought they got along well.
Moreover, the little human cub also gave it a gift.
It's very happy.
Could it be...that candy is a parting gift?
…
After another cycle of seasons, on a bright spring morning, Si left the bridge hole, stepped on the grass where it had been lying in the sun for a long time, and walked towards the direction where the human cubs came from.
It wants to find a human cub.
Then, give the return gift it prepared to the human cub.
…
However, standing at the intersection, Si looked confused.
It doesn't know where it should go next?
Turn left? Turn right?
Or go straight?
It suddenly realized that perhaps the return gift given to the human cub would stay with it for a long time.
...
Si chose a random direction to move forward.
For it, although it was a little confused not knowing where the human cub was, it was not too disappointed.
It can be found slowly.
After all, it has plenty of time.
However, it knows that human beings are different from it. Human beings have a very limited life span, only a few hundred years.
So, before the human cub's life comes to an end, it has to find him.
…
Walk around and look around.
When the weather is nice, it will also find a place to lie down and bask in the sun.
People were coming and going in front of it, but no one sat down next to it like a human cub.
It's a bit regretful.
What a wonderful sun.
It reminded it of the day when the human cub gave it a gift, the sky was so clear and the sky was so bright.
It suddenly wanted to taste the candy.
After looking at the faded candy packaging for a while, it carefully put it away.
No, this is the first gift it has received from a human cub, and probably the only gift.
Once eaten...it's gone.
…
Si noticed Xiao Xiao easily.
After all, the evil spirits of Feifei and Taotie are as obvious to it as fireflies in the dark night.
It has been a long time since it encountered a human being followed by a monster.
It was a little hesitant because many humans were not friendly to monsters.
Most people don't care.
Their opinions don't matter.
However, for humans who can see monsters and have monsters around them, it can't help but feel a little vigilant and fearful.
It stared at Xiao Xiao, hesitating whether to get closer?
Seeing Xiao Xiao walking forward, it frowned, but followed him automatically.
Maybe... this human can help it find the little human cub that gave it candy?
It doesn't know, but is unwilling to give up this opportunity.
…
"Moo moo~ moo moo~"
Si lay prone on the ground, looking down at the human being in front of him.
I couldn't help but feel a little hopeful.
It would be easier for humans to find humans than for this monster to find humans, right?
It would be great if we could successfully find the human cub...
It's obviously better to think about it slowly at the beginning.
It always finds him.
However, it became a little anxious.
…
"..."
Xiao Xiao looked at Si's slightly shining eyes and always felt that it was difficult to say rejection.
But rather than giving this monster unrealistic hopes, then, "I'm sorry."
"I can not do anything."
Xiao Xiao's words made Si startled, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
"Moo~"
…
Si originally thought that he just came here with the mentality of giving it a try.
But when I heard the negative answer, my disappointment was much deeper than I thought.
For a moment, it even felt a little discouraged.
It's just a moment.
It shook its head, stood up and moved away from the huge body blocking the entrance of the alley.
A large amount of light shines in.
They form two distinct worlds with monsters that seem to have their own shadows.
…
Xiao Xiao walked towards the entrance of the alley.
When passing in front of Si, he stopped.
Si looked up in confusion.
Xiao Xiao was silent for a while.
Then a low voice sounded in the alley.
"Do you remember where you met?"
"Now let me go back, do you still remember the way?"
...
Xiao Xiao's words made Si a little stunned, and then he nodded vigorously.
It remembers!
In fact, I worry about whether the human cub will go back to look for it, and it will always go back to check it out after a while.
Unfortunately, I never saw the human cub I wanted to see.
...
"Then let's go take a look."
Xiao Xiao sighed in his heart.
Since this monster found him, it was fate.
Moreover, the other party's attitude was so good, and he didn't bother or get angry when he rejected her, which made him feel a little embarrassed and left just like that.
Even if he worked for nothing, he thought it would be good to do his part.
But, as I said before, "I can't guarantee anything."
"Don't have high expectations."
"In other words, it's better not to have any hope."
Xiao Xiao looked at Si's eyes that had regained their luster and were even more sparkling than before, and poured a lot of cold water on him.
"Moo~Moo~Moo~"
Si nodded, then shook his head.
…
Thanks.
Please don't be burdened.
Regardless of whether I find it in the end, thank you very much.
…
Xiao Xiao sat on Si's body and came to the grassland.
…
When setting off, Si, who was excited, proposed to drive Xiao Xiao over.
This not only consumes less time, but also allows it to repay Xiao Xiao's kindness for being willing to help.
But Xiao Xiao rejected it.
...
Seeing Si's expression of disappointment and confusion, Xiao Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth.
He doesn't want to be on the front page tomorrow.
It is true that ordinary people cannot see monsters, but he is not a monster.
He couldn't make himself invisible in front of everyone.
It's not night now either.
The way he sits on Si doesn't look like he's hanging in the air to others?
…
Si didn't understand the reason for Xiao Xiao's refusal. The other monsters had followed Xiao Xiao and lived in human society for a long time, so they soon understood.
The little white fox's eyes were half-opened and he glanced sideways at Xiao Xiao, "Master Xiao Xiao, do you need my help?"
"help?"
Xiao Xiao was a little confused.
"Hiss~"
White Snake stuck out his head, "Hiss~ Sir Xiao Xiao, let me help you!"
"A deception is enough."
The little white fox's half-opened eyes suddenly widened, and he flicked it with a cold glare, "Smelly snake, why did you interrupt me while I was talking?!"
"No manners at all!"
"Hiss~"
The white snake's eyes turned around the little white fox and then looked back, with a half-smile on its face.
