Chapter 107 Hallucination?
Chapter 107 Hallucination?
Bai Jie smiled and shook her head. This little Zang is so cute, no wonder he's my child.
After resting, Bai Zang returned to the villa. Tian Lu and Bi Xie also returned to their dreams. In Bai Jie's dream, only he, Si Bu Xiang, and Mian Tao remained.
After tonight's events were resolved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved that there were no more dream-eating creatures to bother them from time to time.
Since she had nothing better to do in her dream, Bai Jie took Mian Tao and Si Bu Xiang to fight monsters.
. . .
next morning.
"Let's go! Let's go!" Cotton Boll seemed extremely happy.
All the beasts nodded. The Four-Unlikes blew out an auspicious cloud, which the beasts stepped on, while Bai Ze summoned a black cloud to lead the way.
Today, Cotton Boll wasn't on the back of the four birds as usual, but on her father's head.
The cotton boll dad was overjoyed.
"Father, did you tell Mother yesterday?" Miantao asked, perched on her father's head.
Last night, during her free time, Miantao went to check on her father's dream, but there was no beast at home, so she asked her father this question.
"Yes, we've already spoken to her, and she said she'll come to see us in a while," Cotton Peach's father nodded and said.
"Oh~ Mother hasn't been back for so long, I miss Mother so much—" Miantao said lazily, lying on her father's head.
She had tried to find her mother's dreams, but couldn't. Only her father could find them, which she couldn't quite understand.
Could it be that Mother, like Bai Jie's villa, can move around randomly on her own?
Miantao scratched her head, thinking to herself, "I'll go learn a trick from my mother later! I'll show off in front of Bai Jie, hehehe~"
Bai Jie, sitting on the back of the four, looked at Mian Tao with a silly smile on her face, full of question marks.
What is this little girl thinking about now?
The flight continued until noon, and it wasn't boring up in the clouds because of the extra cotton boll.
She was always asking questions about Bai Jie's villa out of curiosity, and she was very much looking forward to it.
"Haha, if you want to see it, I can show it to you in my dreams~" Bai Jie rubbed Mian Tao's head.
Unexpectedly, the cotton boll refused outright.
"No way! I want to see it with my own eyes!" Cotton Peach said, hands on her hips.
"Okay~" Bai Jie said, shrugging. Since that's what they think, she'll see when she gets there.
In fact, Bai Zang had already secretly shown Mian Tao what the villa looked like in his dream. It was so luxurious that, while marveling at it, he also couldn't help but admire Bai Jie's art.
She believes that it would be impossible to come up with such a villa without a great deal of artistic talent!
At that moment, Bai Ze, who was in front, suddenly called out to Bai Jie.
"Hundred solutions".
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Bai Jie asked, a little puzzled.
“That…” Bai Ze pointed to a mountain.
Bai Jie frowned as she looked over. Why did this mountain seem so familiar? Hmm... wasn't this the place where they caught the smelt fish before? Could it be...?
Bai Jie looked at Bai Ze, who clenched his fist and coughed, showing no embarrassment whatsoever.
He's already led them this far, and besides, it's lunchtime now, so taking a nap here would be quite nice.
Bai Jie gave him an "OK" sign. At first, Bai Ze didn't understand, but later he realized that it meant "received" or "no problem."
"Everyone, let's take a lunch break down here today. There's some food down here, it's pretty good," Bai Jie said to the beast beside her.
The beasts nodded; they were feeling a bit hungry themselves.
The Four-Unlikes and Bai Ze flew to the ground.
As soon as it happened, Mian Tao ran up to Bai Jie.
"Bai Jie, Bai Jie, what delicious food is here!" Mian Tao's eyes lit up. Back home, all he had were some frozen meat and some common wild animals, and he was getting tired of them.
Bai Jie smiled mysteriously upon hearing Mian Tao's words, "Come with me~"
He told the Four-Faced Beast to wait for him there while he took Cotton Peach to catch the scorpionfish.
Cotton Boll tilted its head, acting all mysterious.
"Howl~"
After saying that, Miantao followed Bai Jie to the west and walked to the side of a small river.
Bai Jie pointed to the river and said, "There's a wonderful fish in there, it tastes amazing!"
After Bai Jie finished speaking, she wanted to hear what the cotton boll behind her thought.
After waiting for a long time, I still didn't hear a reply from the cotton boll.
Bai Jie turned around and looked back, but there were no cotton bolls left; the place was completely empty.
"Where's the beast?" Bai Jie scratched his head. The road wasn't far, and he wasn't walking fast either, so how could it have disappeared!
Bai Jie looked around and spotted a black and white striped beast behind a tree in the distance.
"?"
With a puzzled look on her face, Bai Jie slowly walked up to Mian Tao.
The cotton boll had its bottom sticking up and its tail buried its face, as if it were very scared.
Bai Jie poked the cotton boll's tail.
"Ah!" Cotton Peach screamed and jumped up with a 'whoosh'.
"Don't be afraid, it's me." Bai Jie softened her voice.
Cotton Peach slowly lowered her tail, looked at Bai Jie in front of her, and jumped directly into his arms.
Bai Jie gently rubbed the cotton boll's head with her paws.
"What happened? Why did you suddenly run away?" Bai Jie asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I...I was just walking along when you disappeared right in front of me, and then I ran and hid somewhere. Huh? How did I get here?" Miantao said, sounding a little confused.
Wasn't she just hiding behind a black pillar in some random place? Was that... a hallucination?
Bai Jie frowned. Was the cotton boll hallucinating? What was going on?
His dream energy entered the cotton boll's body and sensed it, but found nothing there.
Bai Jie looked at the terrified Mian Tao and said softly, "You must have been too tired on the cloud. You were just hallucinating. Come with me first. Stay by my side and don't stay behind."
Mian Tao nodded. Although she was still a little scared, the strange unease disappeared when she was next to Bai Jie.
Bai Jie was wondering what was going on. She had asked Bai Ze before, and that strange light spot shouldn't have any aftereffects. Was Bai Ze wrong? Or was Bai Ze deliberately keeping quiet?
Bai Jie's thoughts kept wandering, and she even came up with conspiracy theories.
"Bai Jie, Bai Jie!" Cotton Peach, seeing Bai Jie still standing there in a daze after comforting her, tugged at Bai Jie's tail and cried out.
"Ah...ah!" Feeling the pain from the pulling on her tail, Bai Jie immediately pulled it back.
"Sorry, sorry, I was thinking about something. Let's continue to the riverbank now," Bai Jie said, scratching her head.
Regardless of any conspiracy, I'll definitely be able to handle it once I'm strong enough. If Bai Ze doesn't know, perhaps I can ask Bai Zang? That little guy comes from the future, so he should know more.
Bai Jie thought to herself, and then slowly walked towards the river with the cotton bolls.
