The demon ghost was so flustered that it couldn't help but speed up its circles.
Xiao Xiao had no choice but to say, "Stop."
He reached out and held down the demon's head.
"Stop turning."
He took back his hand and said, "Calm down first."
"Tell me everything you know."
"That way I can help you."
"Isn't it?"
"Wha~"
The monster blinked.
Master Xiao Xiao is willing to help it?
"Didn't you come to me for help?"
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Did I understand it wrong?"
"Wawa~"
The demon ghost shook his head fiercely.
That’s right!
It came to ask Master Xiao Xiao for help!
...
It hesitated for a long time.
It doesn't know if asking a human for help is a good choice?
It doesn't know if Master Xiao Xiao will help?
…
It thinks a lot.
It wasn't until it saw that the human being with Mr. Xiao Xiao was about to leave, and it couldn't find Jiujiu, that it made up its mind and followed him.
…
It took a lot of effort to get the human to hear its voice.
The human made him wait there.
It doesn't want to.
It wants to see Master Xiao Xiao in person and ask for his help.
If Mr. Xiao Xiao doesn't want it, it will keep following Mr. Xiao Xiao.
Every time Jiujiu gets angry with it, or doesn't agree with what it does, it just keeps following Jiujiu.
Even if it flies to the sky, it will not give up.
When Jiujiu really can't be seen anymore, it will go to Jiujiu's house to wait for Jiujiu.
Jiujiu always forgives it impatiently or agrees to its request in the end.
…
"Wawa~wa..."
Thank you, Mr. Xiao Xiao!
Mr. Xiao Xiao is so kind...
The ghost's eyes shined.
There was no need for it to follow Mr. Xiao Xiao, so Mr. Xiao Xiao agreed to it.
No, it didn't even make a request, it just said that Jiujiu was missing, and Master Xiao Xiao said that he would help it.
Mr. Xiao Xiao is really...
"Stop it."
Xiao Xiao interrupted the complimentary words of a certain monster that was tossing and turning without any change.
"Let's not waste any more time."
"Tell me how you found out that Jiujiu was missing."
Xiao Xiao thoughtfully asked, "Why do you think it's missing?"
"What did you find?"
…
"Wawa~wa..."
Talking about the things that Jiu Jiu disappeared, the demon ghost's expression suddenly became a little gloomy.
It sat down with a thud and crossed its legs.
He narrated what happened in the past few days in a somewhat awkward manner.
…
Silence returned to the carriage.
Su Xun glanced at the rearview mirror.
Master Xiao tilted his head, as if he was listening to something.
He withdrew his gaze and looked at the road ahead.
Although he couldn't hear what the monster said, Su Xun had a general understanding of the monster's purpose of coming to Master Xiao from a few words of Master Xiao.
Did it turn out that this monster's friend has disappeared?
No wonder he's so anxious.
He actually found him and wanted to find Master Xiao through him.
This monster also took a lot of effort.
...
He couldn't help but glance in the rearview mirror again.
I was very curious about what the ghost said.
I was also surprised that monsters have friends.
It's not his prejudice.
Maybe a little?
But...youkai and friend...I always feel like they are two completely different words.
But he also knew that it was not suitable for him to speak out now.
He forced himself to focus on the road ahead.
Out of the corner of his eye, he still glanced at the rearview mirror from time to time.
My ears are also paying attention to the movement behind me.
...
Three days ago, that was the day Xiao Xiao and others returned.
The ghost climbed to the highest tree and watched the car go away.
Then, everything is business as usual.
It shuttles through the woods, catching butterflies and chasing rabbits.
When the sky gets dark, it goes to find Chirp.
However, it did not see the tweet.
There was no familiar figure in the nest made of branches and leaves.
The ghost was stunned.
This is the first time this has happened.
Just yesterday, it came over here and Chiu Jiu was preening its feathers.
"Wawa~"
The sprites and ghosts looked around.
Haven't come back yet?
It searched nearby.
not found.
It sat on a branch next to the bird's nest, dangling its feet and waiting for it to chirp back.
The sky is filled with red clouds.
Full of beauty.
The sprites and ghosts looked on blankly.
It remembered that one time it flew back from the red clouds.
The whole body turned red.
Just like it.
The demon ghost narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Although Jiujiu gave it a big white eye after knowing why it was laughing.
...
This time, the chirps will also fly out of the red clouds, right?
The ghost opened his eyes wide.
I watched helplessly as the red clouds in the sky were swallowed up by the deep darkness of night, and Jiujiu still didn't come back.
It blinked its somewhat sour eyes.
look up.
A bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the moonlight is clear and bright.
A few stars were scattered on the sky, twinkling.
It's already night.
So...why hasn't Jiujiu come back yet?
The sprites and ghosts don’t know.
It climbed to the top of the tree and looked up into the distance.
The tree crowns below are like clouds.
The night wind blew by, and the branches and leaves collided, making a rustling sound.
Mixed with the chirping of insects and the occasional cry of unknown wild beasts.
It does reveal a bit of excitement and hustle and bustle.
The ghost's brows furrowed more and more tightly.
Didn't see any tweets.
It jumped.
It landed steadily on the branch of the big tree next to it.
It looked around again.
Repeat this.
It didn't know how many big trees it had jumped.
It started to get anxious.
No.
It didn't see Chirp anywhere.
Jiujiu disappeared.
It finally realized this fact.
...
Until the eastern sky turns white, and the faint sunlight falls on the faces and eyes of the monsters.
The ghost suddenly came back to his senses, stopped and was about to take off again.
Its daybreak?
The demon ghost raised his eyes, with a bit of doubt on his face.
So fast?
It hasn't been found yet.
How come it’s dawn?
...
Yes, it hasn't found Jiu Jiu yet.
The ghost murmured.
Where have you gone?
Where did the tweet go?
It can't even find the tweet.
...
The demon's eyes suddenly lit up.
Will Jiujiu be there?
It immediately started running quickly.
The wind howled in my ears.
Its heart beats very fast.
Because of excitement.
It thought it had found its direction.
...
When the beautiful lake appeared in front of it, a happy smile appeared on the monster's face.
"Wawa..."
It couldn't wait to call Jiu Jiu's name.
Tweet like this lake.
I especially like to drink the water from this lake.
It also likes the lake.
You can see beautiful fireflies at this time.
Twinkle and twinkle.
Just like the stars in the sky.
...
The smile on the ghost's face became weaker and weaker.
Then, completely disappeared.
...
No?
The sprites and ghosts didn’t believe it.
How could it not be?
Jiujiu should be here.
If Chiujiu is not here...where will Chiujiu be?
It was at a loss.
Apart from this place, it doesn’t know where else it will go.
