I didn't want to compete with you for the heroine

The morning sun poured moist moisture into the soil, slowly dispelling the mist in the air.In a field there is still dew from the night before.

As the fog slowly dissipated, the light gradually came out of the field of vision. After the morning fog dissipated, a girl was running on the grass, holding a simple doll made of rough fabric in her hand.

"Little brother!"

Xiaoguang rushed to Xun's room with the puppet in his hand, filled with joy, and happily raised it up and handed it to Xun, "Look, little brother! I made this myself!!"

Xun looked at the puppet's appearance with a childlike sense of curiosity, and after taking it, he touched it carefully and unconsciously showed a joyful expression.

"What's this?"

After staying here for two whole days, Zhou Tianli has been teaching him how to speak, and since that day, Xiaoguang will come to find Xun with his little things whenever he is free. It may be because of his similar age in appearance, but Little did she know that the person in front of her was a monster several times bigger than her.

In just two days, Xun was able to roughly express his inner thoughts, even though sometimes he was still not fluent.

"This is an amulet! My mother said that when making an amulet, you only need to keep thinking about the other person and put all your blessings on it. When you give it to the other person, you will receive the protection of the gods and ward off evil spirits. My mother also told me , the amulet can only be given to the most important person!" Xiao Guang bent his eyes very happily.

"Little brother, how do you think I did this? Will he like it?" Xiaoguang became a little unconfident when he mentioned this sentence, and asked weakly on the side of Xun's bed.

Xun kept his eyes fixed on the puppet, which was only half the size of a palm, and nodded when he listened to the person's question.

"Really!! Hehe, little brother, are you also interested in this?" Xiaoguang asked tentatively when he found that Xun had been staring at it.

"I, can, do it?" Xun asked uncertainly.

"Okay! But, little brother, who do you want to give it to?"

Seeing Xun's dodging eyes, Xiaoguang showed a smirk and raised his chin with one hand, pretending to say casually, "It is said... Brother Tianli seems to like this kind of thing very much."

Sure enough, Xun's eyes flickered for a moment, and he slowly turned his head to look at Xiaoguang's smile, pursed his lips together for a moment, and then said, "I, too, want to do one."

"It's easy to do, I'll teach you."

"Leaving tomorrow?" Zhou Tianli walked to Xu Yao's side and asked.

Xu Yao nodded, "Thank you for your family's care these two days, this meeting is also fate, we..."

"Stop, stop! Tell me the parting words again? You clearly know that I will go with you." Zhou Tianli interrupted Xu Yao.

follow?Xu Yao thought that Zhou Tianli would not be with them again after returning to his hometown, "Have you said goodbye?"

"I just said that, although I was very reluctant. But I told my mother that I will visit her often." Zhou Tianli smiled at Xu Yao by the way.

Xu Yao sighed, "Actually, I think it's better for you to stay."

"I'll stay with you two to bring that stinky fox? I told you that he has a stubborn temper. If you can't do it, you have to rely on me." Zhou Tianli deliberately lowered his voice and whispered.

I really don't know where Zhou Tianli's sense of confidence came from when he said this?

"You actually have a good relationship with a monster."

"Hahaha, yes. I didn't expect that either." Zhou Tianli raised his hands and smiled.

"Almost forgot, this is for you." Zhou Tianli took out a piece of bamboo paper and handed it to Xu Yao.

After Xu Yao took it, she found that it was a map with criss-cross lines of various colors and some symbols with circles and red crosses on it. It can be roughly guessed that this is a topographic map of the vicinity.

"Anyway, we also live in this area. You also know that this area is easy to enter and difficult to exit. The terrain is rugged and changes every year. This is what my mother gave me just now. It should be a recent drawing." Zhou Tianli explained.

"Give this to us, okay?" Indeed, with this map, many dangers can be avoided.

"Don't worry, this is more than one."

Zhou Tianli looked at Xu Yao's profile for a moment and then said, "Yunhan, do you know the Hechuan family?"

The river family?How could he know?Xu Yao shook her head.

"In the northernmost part of this area, there is a sect called Hechuan. Although it is not as prosperous as your three sects, it also controls important resources in the north. However, it is strange that it has never participated in the melee of various sects despite its strong internal forces. .”

"Does this have anything to do with us?" Xu Yao asked with a frown. After the trial meeting last time, he really didn't have any interest in the intrigues of these aristocratic families.

I saw Zhou Tianli twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his hand and naturally grabbed Xu Yao's shoulder, "I don't know where they got the news about the ancient beast, Chaos. They also made a big deal about going hunting, besides...I heard that The reason why the He Chuan family has been aloof from the rest of the world is that they are said to be practicing some kind of secret art and worshiping ghosts and gods in time. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Yao didn't answer immediately, he thought of the walking corpses he encountered not long ago, and the corpses in the cave seemed to be related to this kind of crooked way, and this He Chuan family...

It can't be a coincidence, can it?

"I knew you'd be interested."

Zhou Tianli pointed to a place on the bamboo paper in Xu Yao's hand, which is the intersection of two red circles and the center is the town where Hechuan is located!

Xu Yao took a look and found that the distance was not too far.

"Since there is such a dangerous family, why do the three sects ignore it?" Xu Yao inadvertently expressed the doubt in her heart.

"After all, they didn't endanger the interests of other sects, so maybe they don't bother to take care of things." After Zhou Tianli finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and continued to speak.

"Your leader should know more about this matter than me, right? Didn't he mention it?"

Xu Yao stopped talking for a while, how could he know about this matter, and quickly thought about other topics, "Where is Xun?"

"Him?" After Xu Yao reminded him, he remembered that he didn't go to the room to see him all day.

It is indeed time to visit him, after all, I am still a little worried.

"Yo! Little brother Shen." While he was thinking, Zhou Tianli suddenly saw Shen Yusheng walking slowly from behind Xu Yao, and waved his hands enthusiastically to say hello.

Shen Yusheng looked at the obtrusive arm on Xu Yao's shoulder, and frowned, "What are you doing?"

"Us? Are we brewing feelings~"

Looking at Shen Yusheng's darkened face, it seemed that playing with Shen Yusheng had become one of his pleasures.

................

Zhou Tianli was on his way to Xun's room when suddenly a petite figure broke into his field of vision at a corner, and he fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xiaoguang.

"So it's Brother Tianli." Xiao Guang looked in a good mood, Zhou Tianli couldn't help but wonder how these two people would get along so well, and came to find Xun every now and then.

"Go back?" Zhou Tianli smiled fondly.

"Yeah! I played with my little brother all day and had a lot of fun!" As he said, Xiaoguang smiled even brighter.

all day?Zhou Tianli was a little surprised in his heart, at least Xun would not feel bored with Xiaoguang by his side.

After sending Xiao Guang away, Zhou Tianli gently pushed open Xun's door, which seemed to startle the people in the room. Xun looked back at Zhou Tianli in surprise, and then hid something behind his hands.

Zhou Tianli looked at Xun's feet standing on the ground, and with his continuous efforts, he finally reversed Xun's movement of wanting to 'climb'. It seems that there is no problem with walking now.

Seeing Xun's uneasy behavior, Zhou Tianli wondered if there was anything he couldn't see?

Zhou Tianli Xiaobu walked in front of Xun. For some reason, he felt that Xun was extra nervous when facing him today. He lowered his eyes and looked at the other side's hands that were trying to cover up, and said with a smile, "Can't you show it to me?"

Xun's expression tightened and he suddenly lowered his head, then shook his head again, that look is very pitiful.

"Do not."

"Then can I take a look?" Zhou Tianli's eyes curled up with a smile. Although this little fox is a beast, it is as pure as white paper and has never been polluted by the dust of the world.

After hesitating for a moment, Xun slowly stretched out his hand in front of him and handed it to the other party.After Zhou Tianli took it, he was a little surprised that it was a very ordinary puppet.

Hmm... a lot of parts are still missing.

Not to mention one of the buttons used as eyes was sewn crookedly, the other was missing and fell somewhere, and the body was also twisted in an indescribable posture. It was not easy to maintain the shape of a puppet.

Looking at this thing that should be a puppet, Zhou Tianli didn't know what to say and raised his eyes to meet Shang Xun's expectant eyes, could it be?

"This... Could it be you who did it?" Zhou Tianli asked uncertainly.

After seeing Xun's affirmative nod, Zhou Tianli lowered his head and looked again. How should I put it, it really suits my taste.

"No, not bad. Why do you suddenly want to do this?"

Xun, who was originally silent, suddenly became excited, impatiently pointed to the puppet in Zhou Tianli's hand and said intermittently, "You! Send! Here you are!"

Zhou Tianli heard the meaning, and asked in surprise, "Give it to me?"

"Here! Amulet! For you...my sweetheart."

Um?Who taught this word?It must be Xiaoguang's child.

"You can't say the word sweetheart to others casually." Zhou Tianli didn't realize what Xun meant, and instead preached.

"You! You! Sending you off!!" Seeing Zhou Tianli's intention of refusing, Xun got up in a hurry and said something urgent.

Zhou Tianli suddenly saw several wounds on Xun's fingertips that had been punctured by needles, grabbed someone's palm and put it in front of his eyes, his brows became more and more tightly clustered, and his heart was tense and panicked.

And Xun couldn't see the complexity in Zhou Tianli's eyes, but eagerly waited for Zhou Tianli to accept it.

Zhou Tianli squeezed Xun's palm lightly, and sighed softly, not only looks like a human now, but also behaves more and more like a human.

"Thank you, I'll send it off."

On the second day, after saying goodbye to the villagers, a quarter of an hour had passed, Xu Yao stared at the thing hanging on Zhou Tianli's sword...he really couldn't see what it was.

"What is that?" Xu Yao pointed to Zhou Tianli and asked.

"Oh, this." Saying that, Zhou Tianli picked up the sharp sword and showed it in front of Xu Yao.

"This is a talisman! You like it? I can give you this if I can give you anything else!"

ah?Why does he want this thing?Besides, Xu Yao didn't see anything special about it, Zhou Tianli actually likes this, it's really a unique taste.

"I didn't intend to."

"That's good, this... is very precious."
