Chapter 553: Eternal Night Star River (13)
Ling Miaomiao was still angry, but when she saw the huge bamboo in front of her, her alarm bells suddenly rang and she turned around and was about to run.
After all, which family's bamboo can grow so big? Ling Miaomiao can guess with her toes that this bamboo must be a big monster. As a rookie monster catcher, what is she waiting for if she doesn't run away?
It's a pity that she reacted, and the big demon also reacted. Ling Miaomiao only heard a deep voice coming, "Someone dares to come? It seems that I can have a good meal again, hahahaha..."
Ling Miaomiao was terrified and almost instantly thought of the legend that the innkeeper had told her. In order to save her life, she knelt down and begged for mercy without thinking.
Fortunately, it was all just a false alarm. There was no big monster in the bamboo forest. There was only a small monster that was relying on the power of others to bully others. It was a small bamboo shoot Cuicui that seemed to have become a spirit not long ago and could only deceive people.
Moreover, even if this little bamboo shoot transforms into a human form, it seems to have no attack power. Instead, it looks like a cute human cub.
This made Ling Miaomiao's thoughts, which had originally calmed down, float up again. Special materials, could this bamboo in front of her, which had been alive for who knows how many years, be considered a special material?
Of course, she definitely didn't want a whole bamboo. After all, this was the body of Cuicui's grandfather. Even if Cuicui was willing to give it, Ling Miaomiao would not want it!
She wasn't that crazy, she just wanted some scraps, like fallen leaves or something.
Thinking of this, Ling Miaomiao looked at Cuicui in front of her and squatted down directly, "Cuicui, your grandfather will lose his hair, ah, no, it's leaves?"
"It's useless for you to keep it anyway. We met by chance, so why not give me two pieces?"
Ling Miaomiao admitted that she had begun to prepare to give up her life for the storage bag!
"leaf?"
Cuicui didn't understand why someone would want something like leaves, but she still thought seriously about whether he had them. After all, he had never paid attention to such things before.
But unfortunately, no, absolutely not.
Not to mention that his grandfather is already a great demon, his real body will not shed leaves easily. Even if it does, they will not keep them on purpose!
Cui Cui was a little confused, lowering her head, wondering what she was thinking. "If I give you the things, can you leave immediately and not tell anyone about what happened here?"
Hearing Cuicui ask this, Ling Miaomiao's eyes lit up. There was hope. Anyway, she hadn't planned to stay here for long, and even if he didn't say it, she wouldn't tell anyone about what happened here. So she nodded and agreed without hesitation.
"Then...okay then!"
Under Ling Miaomiao's expectant gaze, Cuicui flew hesitantly to the huge bamboo, carefully plucked two pieces, and then gave the things directly to her.
"Okay, I've given you the things, you can go now!"
Cuicui deliberately acted fierce, but unfortunately, his height and face meant that even when he was saying harsh words, it looked like he was just acting coquettishly.
But since she had promised him, Ling Miaomiao naturally would not go back on her word. She submitted the leaf she had just obtained to the task, and walked out while watching the review results.
It seemed that the matter would end here, but at this moment, a familiar figure jumped out of the big pit where Ling Miaomiao fell. It was none other than Mu Sheng who had caused her to end up in such a situation!
"Are you OK?"
As soon as Mu Sheng came down, his eyes were immediately locked on Ling Miaomiao. He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that although she looked disheveled, she was fine. Then he shifted his attention to the monster behind her.
Ling Miaomiao noticed Mu Sheng's gaze and didn't even care about the storage bag she was thinking about. She directly blocked in front of Cuicui, who had turned back to her original form. "He has never left here and has done nothing. He is just a little bamboo shoot!"
Ling Miaomiao's exaggerated tone immediately made Mu Sheng laugh. Although he was a demon catcher, he didn't have much prejudice against the demon clan. This little demon didn't harm anyone, so he naturally wouldn't attack him for no reason.
"Okay, since you're alright, let's go!"
After saying that, Mu Sheng turned around and was about to leave. His attitude immediately irritated Ling Miaomiao, "No, brother, who is responsible for me being like this? Don't you have anything to say?"
Facing Ling Miaomiao's questioning, Mu Sheng remained silent, but just quickened his pace. He quickly left here and took Ling Miaomiao to meet up with Mu Yao and the others.
Mu Yao was obviously upset about Ling Miaomiao's leaving without saying goodbye, but she looked at her for a while, turned sideways and stopped talking. Finally, it was Liu Fuyi who spoke:
"Ms. Lin, if you want to leave, you can just tell us. Why leave without saying goodbye?"
Ling Miaomiao also has a lot of grievances but can't express them in words. She doesn't want to leave either. Can you blame her?
She thought about it and glanced at Mu Sheng, but found that he kept his head down and didn't know what he was thinking. In the end, Ling Miaomiao still didn't give Mu Sheng away, but found another reason for her behavior.
It was also from here that the relationship between Ling Miaomiao and Mu Sheng developed by leaps and bounds. Mu Sheng not only made a spiritual weapon specifically for Ling Miaomiao, but also made one for her personally...
Hmm~, it looks like a talisman purse that looks like a sandbag.
Although this sandbag, no, this purse looks more unique, it suddenly reminded Ling Miaomiao of the storage bag she had been thinking about before. It has been under review for such a long time, so it should be completed, right?
It’s not that the storage bag is not good enough and she is not tempted by it. It’s just that she has been busy with things recently, and she is busy practicing magic, so naturally she can’t take care of it.
What's more, she had only seen the storage bag in novels, and her specific uses were all imagined by her. It was not an urgent need, and the reason she wanted it was just for the sake of novelty.
After all, who knows what the specific use of this thing is?
But now that she remembered it, Ling Miaomiao naturally couldn't let it go. That was the material she had "worked so hard" to get!
So she took advantage of the time when Mu Yao and the other two were busy and opened the system panel. As soon as she entered, she saw that Task 1, which was originally displayed as under review, was now completed and waiting to be collected.
Ling Miaomiao was excited and wanted to get the storage bag right away, but she hesitated the moment before receiving it.
Sister Mu Yao was undoubtedly a good person, and Mu Sheng could barely be considered one as well. Even if he got something precious, they wouldn't react. But Brother Liu...
Although he's a very nice person, he's just too nice. He'll help anyone. If the storage bag was just ordinary and could only store things, it would be fine. But if it had some other functions...
Ling Miaomiao didn't dare to think about it, but she finally didn't choose to take it directly. After all, she couldn't think of how to explain it if she took it out now. It would be better for her to wait until she was alone at night and take it out to see how it went.
