There were trampled marks on the grass beside the lake.

Qiao Xianyong was very surprised. He jumped down from Qing Kui's body and carefully observed the traces.

Someone has been here! The way the weeds and wild flowers have been trampled is definitely not the mark of a wild beast running over in disorder. Moreover, the mark looks very new. When Qiao Xianyong came a few days ago, there was no such mark.

After confirming that someone had been here, Qiao Xianyong didn't know whether he felt nervous, excited, or more joyful.

Who is coming? Is it friend or foe? What is his or her purpose?

More importantly, how did he or she come here? Where have they gone now? Is there a way to leave this Wushan Valley?

Qiao Xianyong has lived at the bottom of this valley for three years. Like Master Tongtian, he has searched for all the ways to leave the valley, but there is no hope. Slowly, he has given up the idea of ​​leaving. But now, everything seems to be

It was different again. The master, senior sister, and the fact that he missed his enemies day and night gradually came back to his heart.

Qiao Xianyong searched around the grassland and found nothing unusual. He decided to stay here.

Qiao Xianyong signaled Qingkui to go back to the cave and wait, so that he would not attract attention here. Qingkui was originally an ancient divine beast, very spiritual, and he knew his basic instructions very clearly during the thousands of days and nights he had lived with Qiao Xianyong.

.So Qing Kui reluctantly waved his tail and ran back with a "bang".

Qiao Xianyong sat cross-legged in the bushes by the lake. After he sat down, the bushes just covered his body. The fruits of different colors were dazzling, and you couldn't tell that there was anyone hiding inside unless you looked carefully.

Although the sultry weather in the summer is much cooler in the valley, it still makes people drowsy. Qiao Xianyong fell asleep.

When I woke up again, the bright moonlight had filled the valley. Reflected on the clear lake, the water looked like pieces of diamonds.

Qiao Xianyong felt a little regretful that he fell asleep at such an important time.

He gently pushed aside the bushes in front of him and looked warily towards the lake.

He couldn't believe his eyes at what he saw.

There is a large circle of white petals spread out by the lake, but they seem to come from many different flowers, including roses, jasmine, lilacs, lilies, etc., all exuding wonderful fragrance from a distance.

On the petals, there is a girl sitting cross-legged, with waterfall-like long hair hanging down to her sides. She is covered with a smoky purple gauze, which looks as thin as cicada wings, bathed in the moonlight. The gauze wraps her gracefully

She has a slim body, a slender waist, and slender calves. Her exposed skin is as white as a camellia, and her slender neck is slightly bent like a swan, as if she is looking down at something.

Qiao Xianyong was stunned when he saw the girl's profile. The girl's eyelashes were long and curled, blinking slightly, and she had a white camellia pinned behind her small ears.

This is probably the fairy in the valley, Qiao Xianyong thought in awe.

He has never seen such a beautiful girl. Senior sister Ye Muxin often wears men's clothes and has a more heroic appearance, which is often intimidating to people. Ling Fei'er, who he has rescued many times before, is more playful and cute, like the sister next door.

More approachable and easy to interact with.

And this girl in the moonlight is so perfect that people can only admire her from afar.

When Qiao Xianyong fell into this valley, he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, still a child. Three years into the valley, he had become an adult. Male hormone levels were stimulated normally, but he himself did not understand this change in his body. He suddenly felt

Different from his feelings towards his parents, he has another kind of emotion towards his master.

He looked at the girl infatuatedly, but there were no other distracting thoughts in his heart, and it was completely empty.

The world seemed to have frozen.

At this time, he heard an extremely clear "rumbling" sound.

Oops, Qing Kui probably rushed over waiting for him to arrive.

The girl obviously heard the strange thoughts and stood up in surprise. She wrapped herself in a gauze and looked at the direction of the sound, with a look of panic on her face.

She saw a huge beast running towards her on a moonlit night. Suddenly her legs felt weak and she fell down.

Qing Kui was about to rush in front of the girl.

Qiao Xianyong couldn't bear it any longer. He thought to himself, if the fairy blames me for the offense, then so be it. He jumped out of the grass and stood in front of the girl.

Qing Kui's night vision was excellent, and he stopped immediately when he saw him. His bulky body jumped next to him obediently, and used his nose to sniff his face.

"Ah! Be careful!" Qiao Xianyong heard a soft cry from behind.

He quickly pulled Qing Kui back two steps, then turned around and lowered his head and said, "It's okay."

Seeing that Qing Kui seemed to be obedient, the girl gradually calmed down and asked curiously, "What kind of beast is this? Is it a cow?"

Qing Kui was panting next to him, as if he was very dissatisfied.

Qiao Xianyong raised his head and saw the girl standing about two or three meters away from him. The girl's eyes were wide open and her eyes were full of unstoppable curiosity. She looked at him for a while and then at Qing Kui.

.

Qiao Xianyong was sure that this was just a beautiful girl, not a fairy. He was relieved and replied in a low voice, "I don't know what kind of beast it is. I think it looks like the Kui beast from ancient times."

The girl showed an envious look and praised, "Wow, what a mythical beast! It's so amazing! Did you raise it?"

Qiao Xianyong hadn't talked to another human being for a long time, and he replied very happily, "No, it's from this valley. It has been keeping me company for the past few years."

The girl tilted her head and looked at him, then asked, "Who are you? Are you a savage from the mountains?"

Qiao Xianyong looked down at himself. He didn't blame the girl for asking. The long gown he first wore in the past three years had long been worn out. He patched it up with some animal skins. And his beard was not shaved very much, it was a mess.

It was so thick that it was growing on his face. His shoes were also in tatters. He couldn't help but pull the skirt of his clothes tightly in shame.

Qiao Xianyong replied, "My name is Qiao Xianyong. I accidentally lost my footing from the cliff and fell into this valley many days ago."

The girl looked at him in shock, with sympathetic eyes, "Did it hurt when you fell? I fell down the stairs once last year and broke my ankle. It was extremely painful. My eldest sister said I was stupid."

He smiled, and then introduced himself, "My surname is Xiao, and my name is Xiao Morou. You can call me Rou'er."

Qiao Xianyong was extremely moved.

For a long time, no one asked him if he was in pain. He knew that the girl might care unintentionally, but for him, there was nothing better than the most beautiful rainbow after the storm and the warm bonfire in winter.
