Little Cotton

3

    Yu Ling left Xiquan Mountain.

    He was not stopped by anything, and he didn't hear a word of curse.

    When the clansmen came to see him off, Yu Ling lowered his head, shrunk his neck slightly, carried a rag-wrapped bundle on his shoulders, and tightly grasped Zhong Chuyun's sleeves with his thin fingers, quietly and step by step, In this way, under the watchful eyes of the "relatives" of Yu's family and all the goblins on and off Xiquan Mountain, she left the cage that had trapped her for more than five hundred years without knowing the situation.

    And just as she was about to leave, the attitude of the "relatives" towards her also changed.

    Her father, who hadn't looked at her for a long time, suddenly packed some pastries for her on the road today.

    The cousin who lived in the city for a long time and was only recalled recently gave her a new dress bought in the city.

    The elder brother who always put her at the mercy of others took her little hand and acted reluctance.

    Even the grandfather of the patriarch who has been unwilling to admit that she is the Yu family for five hundred years, put an amulet on her for the first time today, saying that yesterday the clan was too busy to give her a good job. It was a coming-of-age ceremony, but he expected to leave in a blink of an eye, and his heart was full of false words of reluctance.

    For the first time in her life, she felt love from "relatives".

    However, she knew very well that the clothes given by her cousin would not fit well, and the cakes she ate on the road and the amulets given by her grandfather could never be specially made for her.

    Because there is jealousy hidden in the eyes of the sisters, and the eyes of the rest are also full of helplessness.

    After all, she has always been the weakest and most deceitful existence of the Yu family. If she hadn't witnessed her departure, who would have thought that who would believe that this distinguished guest of the Yu family really chose her in the end?

    This was the first time that those "relatives" who had bullied her for hundreds of years performed so hard in front of her, and she found it funny just watching, and she didn't know what they were feeling at the moment.

    But it didn't matter at all to her how they felt.

    Because she is a cotton flower with a fox relationship, she may be unlucky when she does not meet a fox, but every time she meets a fox, something good will always happen.

    This is something no one can envy.

    At the moment when Xiquan Mountain's enchantment was opened, Yu Ling turned her head for the last time, her gaze calmly passed over every clansman who had disliked or loathed her in the past, and only looked at the guardian tree in the center of the enchantment. The sacred tree of the Zhumu family for generations.

    According to legend, there are gods in the tree...

    If there are gods in the tree, then the hearts of the gods must be cold.

    That's all.

    Goodbye, Xiquan Mountain.

    Or maybe

    it's better not to see each other again.

    ***

    Yu Ling originally thought that Zhong Chuyun would transform into her original form and take her to a human city.
