Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 404: Three Fantasies of a Lonely Little Boy
"Another evil spirit has invaded here..."

You Su frowned and looked in one direction, where there were blood lines everywhere, fighting against foreign enemies.

There have been dozens of such invasion incidents, large and small. Fortunately, the existence of these blood lines gave You Su and Bai Ze enough time to rest.

"You Su...are we really going out..."

Bai Ze pulled You Su's sleeve and asked worriedly.

"It's dark here, but I'm afraid we've been here for at least two days. Now that I'm fine, I can try to move on. You have to make your own way, and the same is true for survival."

You Su's tone was reassuring, and he said, "Wait here first. I'll try to walk out first. After I verify the situation, I'll come back to pick you up."

"do not want!"

Bai Ze answered very straightforwardly, and then as if he was worried that You Su would abandon him, he pulled with his little hand and hugged You Su's entire arm in his slightly bulging arms.

"I will go wherever you go!"

You Su raised his eyebrows slightly, and the word "xiaolongbao" popped up in his mind. He wanted to pull his hand away immediately, but the girl held his hand tightly like a dog-skin plaster, as if she was afraid that he would run away.

"Let go first." You Su ordered.

"No." Bai Ze pouted.

You Su was helpless, thinking that it would be bad if the cat he picked up was too familiar to him. "That's just what I said. I'm worried about leaving you, a stupid cat, here. Let go, and we'll go together."

"The bad guys here are elusive. If we don't stick together tightly, what will we do if we get lost again?" Bai Ze's reason was very sufficient. She seemed to feel that You Su was trying to break free, so she stuck closer, "If you don't want me to hold you, then let me get into your collar and hold me like before."

"Then you become a cat."

"It can't change."

"That's out of the question. I still have to draw my sword with my right hand. How can I protect you and me if you hold me back like this?" You Su felt that the steamed bun was about to be crushed. Seeing that the girl had no intention of letting go, he hurriedly said, "Let go of your right hand and hold my left hand."

"You're lying. Once I let go, you won't let me hold you anymore." Bai Ze snorted, feeling proud of having seen through You Su's trick. "I'm not really stupid."

You Su felt like she was on edge. Although she was a legal lolita, she was still just a little girl who could barely reach her chest.

He was just about to give Bai Ze a stern lesson when the girl spoke first:

"But what you said is true. If I don't pull, it will be ok to just lead it."

You Su knew that Bai Ze was timid and that was why she wanted to be inseparable from him. He still felt guilty for rejecting the girl. When he heard that they only wanted to hold hands, he stretched out his left hand without thinking, "You have to hold my left hand, too."

Bai Ze smiled sweetly, took You Su's broad big hand, and then happily jumped to You Su's left side.

You Suben had never expected that they would hold hands again, and could not help but smile bitterly to himself, laughing at how he often used similar rhetoric to trick his junior sister into doing shameful things that she would not normally do, and now he had fallen for the same 'trick' as others.

A great man once said that human nature is like this. If the room is too dark and you advocate opening a skylight in everyone's house, they will definitely not allow it. But if you advocate removing the roof, they will choose to compromise and be willing to open the skylight.

But unlike me who had planned and contrived in advance, Bai Ze was innocent and just followed his heart. After all, even a three-year-old child knew that if you were not allowed to buy three candies, then just buy one.

When You Su held the petite Bai Ze's hand, he could feel how thin and fragile her bones were, as if they would break with the slightest force. He couldn't help but feel pity for her, but he didn't think any more about it and just walked forward holding the girl's hand.

Bai Ze walked carefully along the way, because You Su saw that she was barefoot and gave her a pair of beautiful embroidered shoes. Although they were a little big, Bai Ze still liked them very much.

In order to keep her shoes and skirt from getting dirty, she jumped, leaped, stopped and turned. In this dark and scarlet world, she was like a lively butterfly that was out of place.

For safety reasons, You Su asked the girl to be more quiet and promised her that there would be new ones if the clothes got dirty.

These were not empty words. After all, his Qiankun bag used to contain mostly treasures for healing and saving lives. However, after experiencing so many dangerous situations, the treasures had long been consumed. Now, the most common items in his Qiankun bag were women's clothes.

After walking out of the area covered by the blood line, Bai Ze indeed became more obedient, his big eyes rolling around, as if he was also alert to the danger lurking in the darkness.

The girl does not act like a failure when encountering the evil spirit, and often helps You Su. However, because her cultivation is still in the recovery period, You Su asks her to use less strength.

You Su lowered his head to look at the top of the girl's head and felt that although Bai Ze was playful by nature, she was actually a well-behaved girl because she was timid.

It's not quite right to call her a pet, and You Su doesn't really think so, but it's still hard to call a cat a companion who shares weal and woe. If we really want to talk about someone who fits the word "pet", I'm afraid Qianhua the puppy is a hundred times more worthy of it than Bai Ze.

Seeing the girl huddled beside him holding hands, You Su couldn't help but think of his junior sister. The two seemed to have similar personalities, but in fact they were quite different.

Although Junior Sister is naughty sometimes, it is because of her proud character. She deliberately goes against me to attract my attention. In front of the respected elders such as the Third Elder, Junior Sister acts like a well-behaved junior. But that is still Junior Sister. Although she seems to be very dependent on me, Senior Sister is actually much more serious than Junior Sister. Junior Sister is dependent on me, but she is lazy by nature and she regards this as a way to express her love. She is cute as if it is your honor to serve me, but in fact she is a very strong girl. Bai Ze's liveliness is natural. Even if the Master of Aoshu is a serious uncle who doesn't smile, I am afraid that he will be "ungrateful" in front of him.

If the junior sister is the childhood sweetheart who has a strong sense of self-esteem but actually has a gentle side, Bai Ze is like the girl next door who is a little clever and a little clumsy. Although she is timid and likes to sulk, she is still willing to pester the handsome and powerful little brother next door to play with her.

Before his junior sister appeared, You Su didn't even have anyone to talk to except his master, let alone a cute little sister who adored and depended on him.

I'm afraid every lonely little boy has fantasized about these three existences: a considerate and gentle older sister, a childhood sweetheart who likes to go against him, and a cute sister who follows him around like a follower.

He had thought that his master's wife would be the big sister, so he was not discouraged in trying to influence her. Although his master's wife's tenderness came a little late, there were still advantages to being late...

Just when he repeatedly ran into obstacles with his master's wife, fortunately, his junior sister, who was of the same age, showed up in time and prevented You Su from completely turning into a eccentric and taciturn weirdo.

And now the appearance of Bai Ze has filled the last emotional gap in You Su's childhood.

Thinking of You Su who was still in a dangerous situation, he quickly shook off the random thoughts in his mind. When he came back to his senses, he found that Bai Ze was also looking at him timidly.

"Why do you keep looking at me?"

"I'm looking at the evil spirit that's escaping behind you." You Su turned his gaze.

"You liar, there's nothing behind me, and you were so engrossed in what you saw just now."

"Nonsense." You Su looked a little embarrassed.

“That look…” Bai Ze bit his finger, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, “It was as if he wanted to eat me!”

You Su paused when he heard that. The Mosong sword appeared in his right hand without him noticing. He swung the sword behind his back without taking off the scabbard, and then swung it lightly.

With a "pop" sound, Bai Ze immediately covered his buttocks with one hand in disbelief.

Her face flushed instantly, and she asked in a tearful voice: "Why did you hit me?"

"This is the punishment for a child who talks nonsense."

You Su had a clear conscience and answered frankly. He just thought Bai Ze was like a little girl next door, and he had no other thoughts at all, so he would not let anyone slander him.

"What did I say..."

Bai Ze rubbed her plump buttocks and muttered softly. Although You Su didn't hurt her at all, she kept rubbing it:
"My meat doesn't taste good... but if you're really hungry, I can give it to you..."

You Su heard the girl's mumbling clearly, and he knew that he had misunderstood the girl's "eat" as "eat". Eager to defend himself, he used the scabbard to teach the other party a lesson.

But this ignorant cat always says things that adults can easily misunderstand, so I can't blame myself for it, right? What do you mean by "If I'm really hungry"?
"Even if I'm really hungry, I won't eat a stupid cat without any meat."

He first ruthlessly complained, and before the girl could argue, he held her hand tighter and said in a serious tone:

"Talk less and focus on what's in front of you."

"Oh……"

In the dim light, the girl still lowered her head to avoid the dirty potholes. The liquid inside appeared bloody, making the girl's cheeks look particularly blushing.

You Su would not lead Bai Ze forward without thinking about the direction, after all, no one knew what was in the depths of darkness. His primary goal was to return to the bottom of the well, after all, that was a visible entrance and most likely an exit.

But there was no direction here, and there was no landmark to record, so he couldn't tell which direction he was pulled from.

In order to find the place where he fell, he had to use a simple method - he was tied by the blood line after walking for a distance, and he estimated that it should not be very far, so he cut off the three longest blood lines and tied them together as a rope, tied it to the limit of the blood line coverage, and extended it to the outside. When the length of these three blood lines is exhausted, this exploration will come to an end. If there is no discovery, return along the blood line to rest, and then prepare for the next exploration.

Although this method is a bit clumsy, as long as the place where it falls does not grow legs and change its position by itself, it will definitely be found.

However, seven consecutive attempts to gain nothing and encountering more and more terrifying evil spirits made the exploration much more difficult, so Bai Ze stayed on the ground and refused to leave this time.

Bai Ze shook You Su's arm and said coquettishly, "My legs are so sore that they can't get better. You can carry me this time. If you don't want to carry me, you can carry me on your back. Anyway, you can't leave me here alone."

Although there was a break, it was not long, and the girl's complaint about her legs being so sore that they could not get better was understandable. However, You Su would definitely not agree to the girl's request, because she would not even have the hands to draw the sword, and would obviously not be able to deal with the increasing number of evil spirits.

"Let's take a longer break this time."

You Su also sat down, looking worriedly at the web woven of blood, "Why are there more and more evil spirits invading..."

Are they really here to grab territory?
