This is a weird-looking beast. Its body is like a bear and leopard, but it is very tall, like a yellow-black wall. Qin Xuan wanted to speak, but Xu Xinya stopped him. The two of them watched it walk slowly, and finally
Stopped in front of Qin Xuan.
"What is this?" Qin Xuan asked softly.
"The tapir is a strange beast that walks in the darkness and leaves legendary dreams in various worlds. It is also a kind of mountain and sea beast."
Legend has it that the tapir, also known as the dream tapir, is a strange beast that will wander in the deep and quiet forests under the hazy moonlight, quietly come to the places where mortals live, and feed on people's nightmares. It often
It sings softly like a lullaby that makes people fall into a sweet sleep, and then slowly and carefully inhales their nightmares into the elephant's trunk one by one. Then, the dream tapir, which has been full of nightmares, will disappear quietly.
It quietly returned to the depths of the forest and continued to live its mysterious life.
"Is this a tapir?"
The dream tapir seemed to hear Qin Xuan's voice, and saw it raised its long trunk, rolled up Qin Xuan's waist, and then put it on his back. Seeing this, Xu Xinya on the side smiled and said: "It looks like she
I like you very much, little brother Xuan."
"It scared me. I thought it was going to attack me."
"Okay, okay, theoretically speaking, except for the ferocious beasts, all mountain and sea beasts can communicate, and kind-hearted strange beasts like the dream tapir are protected by the demon painter," Xu Xinya jumped to the topic with a smile.
On the spacious back of the dream tapir, he sat next to Qin Xuan and said: "The demon painter has a clear rule that you are not allowed to capture the dream tapir without authorization, because most of the dream tapirs are doing transportation work, and they bring travelers into the dreamland.
world, and travel through it to go to other worlds.”
"Another world?!"
Qin Xuan has never even left the province in his life, but who would have thought that if he didn't leave, it would be a different world.
"I heard," Xu Xinya whispered in Qin Xuan's ear: "Some demon painters were taken to the world after death by dream tapirs due to accidents."
"The world after death?" Qin Xuan asked: "Then, how do they come back?"
"I can't come back," Xu Xinya said with a smile: "If you go to the world after death, you will naturally be a dead person. How can a dead person come back? Oops!" Maybe Xu Xinya's words angered Meng Tapir, who knocked him with his nose.
Xu Xinya's head, at the same time, a mature and gentle voice sounded in Qin Xuan's ears: "Don't listen to her nonsense, I won't do that kind of thing."
"Huh?" Qin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he lay on Meng Tapir's head and asked, "Were you talking to me just now?"
"It's me. You are the first guest I've seen." Meng Tapir's voice is very gentle and pleasant, making people feel like they are in the arms of their mother. No wonder Meng Tapir is said to be a kind-hearted alien beast.
Just based on the feeling this gives people, no crazy person would hurt her: "Where are you going to travel? I can take you there right away."
“Bamboo Forest Village.”
Xu Xinya told Qin Xuan her destination first, and then said to Qin Xuan: "This is 'Tapir Meng', a kind of night tapir. If you want to go anywhere in the future, you can summon her in the forest and she will come over as soon as possible."
Plus, the price is a nightmare every time.”
"Nightmare?"
Can this be traded?
"There are two ways to trade. The first one is to let the tapir dream eat your nightmare factor before riding. In this case, you will not have nightmares for a long time." What to do if you don't have nightmares? Of course
It's a sweet dream: "And the second one is to store your nightmare before summoning the tapir dream next time, and then give it to her."
"I recommend the second one," at this time, Tapir Meng's voice sounded: "The nightmare factor is boring, but the ready-made nightmare is more delicious."
The nightmare factor is like rice, which is full but has no taste, while the ready-made nightmares are all kinds of delicious dishes, which are not only full but also taste great.
"But I don't know how to store nightmares..."
"Eh? My child, you are surrounded by nightmares," Tapir Meng stretched his nose to the top of Qin Xuan's head and asked, "Can you give it to me?"
"I have nightmares? Well, okay, you can eat it."
Tapir eats nightmares, not sweet dreams, so it does no harm to people at all. Not only does it not hurt, it can also calm people's hearts and expel some bad curses and even disasters. As the tapir dream eats Qin Xuan's nightmares, Qin Xuan only feels
I felt refreshed for a while, and it felt like all the packages I had been carrying for many days were thrown away. At this time, Tapir Meng said: "What a painful dream, although for me,
This is extremely delicious, but I feel sorry for you, my child."
Only then did Qin Xuan understand what Tapir Meng's so-called nightmare was. Ever since his sister passed away, Qin Xuan had barely had a good night's sleep. Although this was not a real nightmare, over time, countless pains and loneliness piled up.
It's always not a good thing, but now it's better. Tapir Meng ate them all in one breath. In this way, the sadness and pain Qin Xuan had accumulated before will naturally be wiped away. Even if he has negative emotions later, then
It is also brand new and has nothing to do with the previous ones. This obviously brings a lot of help to Qin Xuan.
"That, thank you."
"You're welcome, this is what I do for a living." Tapir Meng had a very good impression of Qin Xuan, and said that if there is any need in the future, just call her and she will be there on call without any charge: "Just treat it as a
Pay for that delicious nightmare before."
"Yo!!!"
As for Xu Xinya, after she gave her stored nightmares to Tapir Meng, she punched Qin Xuan jokingly and said, "You're lucky, you got a contracted beast so quickly."
"Contract, contract beast?"
"Yes, there are irregular contract beasts." According to Xu Xinya, there are many types of contract beasts, including combat, non-combat, permanent, and equal, such as the current Tapir Meng and Qin Xuan
, they signed an equal contract. As long as Qin Xuan wants to travel through time and space in the future, Tapir Meng will come over and give him the help he can.
Well, it seems that is indeed the case...
"Is this strange?"
"It's more than just a curiosity!" The Demon Painter is also a human being, and as a human being, there are all kinds of comparisons, so what he is comparing to is nothing more than wealth and status. Let's not talk about his status, but Qin Xuan contracted a
Tapir has earned enough face.
What is a tapir? It is an alien beast that can take the magic painter and assimilate with the dream world, and then travel through the world. To put it bluntly, it is not a mount, but a car!
Qin Xuan doesn’t need to explain what a luxury car means to Blue Star people, right?
Although the tapir will not help Qin Xuan fight and fight, its ability to travel anytime and anywhere has also greatly improved Qin Xuan's mobility. He has not yet become a demon painter, but he has come to such an event that even Xu Xinya is jealous.
Then, she patted Tapir Meng on the head and said: "Let me tell you, I have been with you for so many years, and you are not willing to sign a contract with me. This guy only came here once and you signed it. I am very sad."
Sad, tapir dream."
However, Tapir Meng said that he would not speak. In fact, Tapirs are a very arrogant beast. They serve countless demon painters but never sign a contract with the demon painters. Just like Xu Xinya, what she established with Tapir Meng is
Long-term cooperation, because every time you ride first, pay later, use the fare to pay for this trip, and this is also the choice of countless demon painters, and this is the only way, when the demon painter calls them next time
, the tapir will remember these passengers who did not give nightmares last time, and if things go on like this, there will be a relatively stable tapir beast.
As far as Xu Xinya knows, she has never seen anyone who can sign a contract with a tapir. Unfortunately, it is an equal contract. If it is a master-servant contract, then Qin Xuan will make a fortune.
"Getting rich, getting rich for what?"
No wonder Xu Xinya couldn't get Tapir's approval. She actually wanted to sell 'Tapir' as a commodity. But my sister, Tapir Meng, said that she can even see through dreams, let alone her inner thoughts. It's a painting of a dirty mind.
The demon master can't get her approval. In comparison, Qin Xuan's heart is as pure as a piece of white paper, especially the fragrant demon power. What kind of nightmare can compare with the taste of this demon power? If
Being able to stay by his side, Tapir Meng felt that he no longer needed to pick up guests all day long.
'If this business is finished, I will be this child's contracted beast...'
If Xu Xinya knew what Tapir Meng was thinking at this time, she would probably kill Qin Xuan severely, then run towards the coastline, and finally kneel down in the sunset and shout: 'Oh my God, this is not fair!'
"It's time to go. Sit tight, kid."
As soon as Tapir Meng finished speaking, a thick white fog rose around his body. He saw Tapir Meng walking in the white mist. As he walked, the front suddenly turned into a golden ocean with no sky or earth.
, Tapir Meng is like a small dust, running in this golden world, and around Qin Xuan, small balls with flashing pictures leap past him.
"This is the border of the Dream Sea, one of the countless ways leading to the land of dreams." Compared with this world, Tapir Meng is so small that it can be ignored, and she is not so much walking as walking, but she is.
Such leisurely movements gave Qin Xuan a feeling of transcending time. It seemed like one minute and one second. Sometimes Qin Xuan even had the illusion of going back in time.
"arrive!"
Following Tapir Meng's voice, Qin Xuan's eyes flashed, and the next moment, a gray-white archway appeared in front of him, and on the archway, the words "Zhulin Village" were written clearly.
"Here comes Zhulin Village." Tapir Meng slowly walked through the archway. Qin Xuan looked around and found that there were many pedestrians around. They were either riding tapir beasts, birds, or monsters like ligers and tigers.
, the strangest thing was a girl with a few white clouds floating around her. Perhaps she noticed Qin Xuan's surprised gaze, Xu Xinya introduced: "That's white cotton."
As the girl turned around, Qin Xuan saw the appearance of these white clouds, which actually had cute big eyes and cute little hands, like a little girl lying in the clouds: "Is this also a mountain and sea beast?"
Damn it, there is such a mountain and sea beast!
"Mountains and seas are huge, and there are all kinds of wonders. There are hundreds of thousands of known species of mountain and sea beasts. When you become a real demon painter in the future, there will be nothing surprising."
"Then I'll leave first," Tapir Meng sent the two of them to the place, and naturally they had to go back. Generally speaking, tapir beasts will not appear in places with many people, because more people mean noisy, which tapir beasts like.
Jing Jing: "See you next time, kid."
"My name is Qin Xuan."
"Remember," Tapir Meng walked towards the outside of Zhulin Village and gradually disappeared into the white mist: "I will come to find you..."
