Ye Taotao had eaten and drank enough and was ready to rest.
The tent has runes engraved on it and has its own temperature adjustment function, so you don’t have to worry about getting cold while lying in it.
Bai Xin virtuously laid out two beddings, one large and one small. He also specially put a few more layers on the small bedding, making it thick and soft, so that Ye Taotao could lie down.
Sleeping on a fluffy and soft blanket, the tent was neither cold nor hot, and Ye Taotao couldn't help but squint her eyes in comfort.
Boxin also lay down on the bedding next to him, sleeping in a small tent with one person and one animal, as if he was back in the small cave at the beginning, feeling an indescribable peace of mind.
From the Black Prison Mountains in Zhulijie to the Yuxu in Huayujie, although Bai Xin is not her biological father, she has long regarded him as a relative. Ye Taotao believes that Bai Xin must be the same way.
Thought.
At this moment, the tent door curtain was suddenly lifted, and Xiao Yan walked in from the outside.
Looking down at the only two beddings on the ground, Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask: "Where are mine?"
Bai Xin: "If you are not prepared, do it yourself."
Ye Taotao blinked her eyes and whispered: "Papa even left some space for you."
Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and gestured. He didn't know if half of him could sleep in the empty part of the tent.
"Is this the space you left for me?"
Bai Xin: "It's enough to meditate for you."
"You are all lying down and you want me to meditate?" Xiao Yan said dissatisfied.
Bai Xin said calmly: "You can still lie down outside."
As soon as he finished speaking, the omnipotent voice outside rang, with an eager tone: "Nephew Xiao Xian, don't you have enough rest? Come to my place to rest."
Xiao Yan: "..."
Bai Xin showed a kind smile: "Please."
Xiao Yan secretly grinded his teeth, "You are cruel."
In fact, foundation-building monks can already maintain a balance of energy by drinking the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and by practicing meditation, they can stay up for days and nights without any problems.
However, it is a natural law for people to sleep. Even for monks, it has an irreplaceable special significance. It has the functions of regulating qi and stabilizing the mood.
This is also one of the reasons why monks fall asleep when they are seriously injured or depleted. It is the body's self-protection.
Xiao Yan had the choice between going to Wan Nong Tong and meditating on the spot. Without half a second of hesitation, Xiao Yan directly lifted the corner of his robe and sat down on the small piece of ground left in the tent.
"No need." In the tent, Xiao Yan shouted to the universal channel, "I don't want to bother fellow Taoist Wan anymore."
Outside, Wan Nantong had some regrets on his face - Xiao Yan looked like a potential alchemist, and he wanted to get closer to Xiao Yan by sleeping in a tent at night.
Thinking like this, he spoke again: "Nephew Xiao Xian is too polite. What do you call 'fellow Taoist'? Just call me 'Uncle Wan'."
Xiao Yan: "..." I have a saying mmp, I don't know whether I should say it or not.
Outside, Wan Nantong was still watching eagerly, waiting for Xiao Yan to call out "Uncle Wan" with deep affection, so as to deepen the relationship between uncle and nephew.
After waiting for a long time, there was no sound.
Wan Mantong shook his head helplessly, alas, this child must be too shy.
No one noticed that in the rain ruins, more and more rainfly fireflies began to fly in the same direction.
Slowly, countless rainfly fireflies spontaneously formed several flowing strips of light. In the dark night, like a river with no end in sight, they collectively rushed past a certain destination.
These rainfly fireflies flapped their wings and surrounded a small tent, flying up and down non-stop. The small lights on their buttocks lit up one after another, illuminating the surroundings as brightly as day.
Ye Taotao was so blinded by the light that she couldn't help but open her eyes, looking at the light projected through the tent, feeling a little confused.
"Is it dawn yet?" She asked with confusion on her little face.
But I obviously didn't feel how long I slept... It seemed like I just closed my eyes for a while.
"Not yet, let's go out and have a look." Both Bai Xin and Xiao Yan opened their eyes alertly and stood up from the ground.
As soon as you open the tent curtain, you will see an overwhelming number of fireflies.
I don’t know how many fireflies there are in the rain, as if the vast galaxy has been pulled from the sky to the ground by a pair of invisible hands.
"So beautiful." Ye Taotao walked out of the tent and looked at the scene in front of her, her eyes widened in wonder.
These Yuliu fireflies seemed to like Ye Taotao very much. After she walked out of the tent, they couldn't help but swarm towards her and circle around Ye Taotao.
Facing the queen's cubs, every Yuliu firefly works hard to shine, striving to be the most beautiful (brightest) cub among all the fireflies!
Not only that, these fireflies also spontaneously formed ever-changing patterns in the dark night, expressing their love for Ye Taotao.
At this moment, a panicked voice was carried far away by the night wind——
"Help, help!"
Ye Taotao suddenly came back to her senses and subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound.
In the distance, I saw a pair of boys and girls stumbling towards this side, supporting each other, and looking back from time to time, as if they were being chased by something.
Before they could get close, Bai Xin took a few steps forward, guarded Ye Taotao behind him, drew out his sword and held it in front of him, looked at the two people coldly, and asked: "Who are they?"
The two people immediately stopped and shrank back timidly, and the girl hid directly behind her brother.
Only then did Ye Taotao see the faces of these two people - no, it should be said that they were monsters.
"Huh? Is it you?"
The boy and girl were none other than the two rabbits they saw in Zhenlong Pavilion that day.
They didn't even have any fitting clothes. They were only wrapped in coarse cloth to cover their bodies. They ran all the way in the rain and were soaked to the skin. Their hair was wet and tangled, and the two ears on their heads were hanging pitifully.
Looking at the long sword in Bai Xin's hand, the boy with rabbit ears showed fear in his eyes, and his face turned pale.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, finally mustered up some courage, and took a small step forward, with a look of pleading in his eyes.
"Yes, can you take us in for one night? Just one night." The rabbit-eared boy looked at Bai Xin timidly, trembling with his white lips, and said pitifully, "Without Yuliuying, we would have been killed by the white-bone evil spirit.
…”
Ye Taotao tilted her head, that strange feeling of dissonance came again.
"Where is your master?" Bai Xin recognized them, his face softened slightly, and he still asked vigilantly.
"He, he..." The rabbit-eared boy shuddered heavily, as if he thought of some extremely terrifying scene, and his shoulders trembled non-stop, "He is dead!"
