The ungrateful bear cub ran off to hide from the rain Gu Nianzhi looked at the thick sheets of rain and thought she couldn’t just stay and get soaked She clireens in the forest, so she ran over to shelter from the rain

This time, she was thankful it wasn’t su under a tree would be suicide But even if there was no lightning, she was practically destroying herself Gu Nianzhi considered it as a cold windher to the bone shi+vering, she sneezed and thought she ht have a cold She rubbed her nose and tried to press herself closer to the trunk

The rain was unrelenting, sohter It continued for almost a whole day! Gu Nianzhi was cohttier and thirst anye for some berries Suddenly, the bear cub bounded towards her and circled around her feet Gu Nianzhi sighed and knelt down to pat his little head “You’d better hurry ho soaked here with me?”

The bear cub’s marble-like black eyes stared stubbornly at her, then he turned to run off He ran a bit and turned back to look at her When he saw she wasn’t , he would run back and crouch at her feet to wait for her to notice hiain He continued to run a bit then turn back to look at her, but Gu Nianzhi re, so the bear cub would run back to crouch at her feet or look up at her or run in circles around her feet After the cub did this several times, she finally understood “You want me to follow you?” She looked fearfully at the bear cub like it was going to nod like some fairy creature! Luckily, it didn’t nod but only looked up at her for a while before running off

This tian to follow it to see what it was up to When the bear cub looked around again to see Gu Nianzhi was following hi back and happily moved forward Gu Nianzhi was finally certain the bear cub was taking her so… She was so touched… Eyes glistening, Gu Nianzhi didn’t even notice she had begun sain in a place where alotten her, because a cute bear cub was desperately trying to help her She only saved it once, but it knew to repay the kindness Compared to some people, who didn’t even deserve to be huht it was an insult to animals to call those people as such They were less than animals

Gu Nianzhi followed the bear cub with soed , the path was muddy, and when she stepped into deep and shallow mud, her sneakers were completely ruined by the yellow dirt She still had no idea where the cub was taking her They walked until the sky grew dark before finally turning a corner on the winding mountain path where a steepled castle suddenly appeared! Gu Nianzhi looked up, covering her mouth as tears welled out of her eyes

The castle wasn’t especially large or sht spilled from several s There must be people in there! Warm tears danced in Gu Nianzhi’s eyes as she quickly walked towards the light fro off the muddy mountain path, she quickly walked onto a clean asphalt road Gu Nianzhi sighed in deep relief and felt revitalized by returning froed over there but only

She stopped and looked around to see the bear cub had stopped before the road It didn’t step onto the asphalt road but only looked up at her fro around to waddle back the way they cauilty, like she was idly watching a sht However, she quickly composed herself and convinced herself that the bear cub was a wild anirown up in the mountains Compared to her, she was the one who truly needed help While Gu Nianzhi still felt thankful towards it, right now she couldn’t even save herself There was truly no way she could express any ratitude towards the bear cub Once she escaped, she would do other things to help the bear cub like increase the punishment towards criminals who poached black bears for their bile She promised to accept more animal protection cases for free or even pay out of her own pocket!

Thinking this way, Gu Nianzhi finally turned towards the great castle doors There were indeed such castles in the Alps, and Gu Nianzhi re the Königssee Many German monasteries were in the Alps, and like temples in the Huaxia Empire, they tended to be established in famous mountains and rivers inaccessible to humans That way, they were isolated froious practice She didn’t know if this castle was one of those legendary monasteries, but since there was a castle here, wouldn’t there be a cell signal?

Gu Nianzhi got excited and quickly took out her phone only to find there really was a weak half bar of signal! She was ecstatic How could an internet child survive without going online?! She quickly called Yin shi+xiong and the otheronline to send Yin shi+xiong and histiive up

Stuffing the phone back in her pocket, she jogged all the way to the castle’s iron gates The castle was on a round plot of land encircled by a wall Directly facing the ate It was half a person tall and inlaid with exquisite wrought iron flowers This type of door was standard security against good people but useless against crih Gu Nianzhi did not see herself as a cri against the top of the gate with one hand, she vaulted her long legs and easily juot onto the castle path, she noticed it was probably cement and a bit better than the asphalt roads outside The rain continued, and she was already co out in the rain all day It didn’t reat doors A laht that illuminated the fine spray of rain outside Gu Nianzhi looked at the obviously tirabbing the large iron door knocker She knocked for a full five minutes before she heard the door creak open fro a black habit and white wimple appeared Her round face revealed a double chin The nun was shocked to see the soaked Gu Nianzhi and gripped the door tightly as she asked in German, “What can we help you with?”

Gu Nianzhi quickly used her newly learned German to stutter, “Shelter from the rain, is that ok?” She then felt it wasn’t what she lish?” The authentic Oxford English accent was very useful on the European continent, since it indicated a good upbringing and faround

The nun’s nervous expression relaxed i “Where did you come from? Are you lost?” As she spoke, she opened the door to let Gu Nianzhi inside

Gu Nianzhi sighed with relief and nodded with a s with some friends They left today, but I was alone, entranced by the beautiful scenery I was a bit late and got caught in the rain, then ended up lost” She nervously adjusted her clothes and scratched her head

The nun closed the door with a se”

Gu Nianzhi was extre stranded in the wilderness for five days without internet and not being able to shoash her hair, or eat a properto return to the civilized world! Nodding quickly, she replied, “Yes, yes Thank you” She then continued, “I’ll pay whatever the cost is” She was very worried the nun thought she’d be eating and staying for free, so she explained right away
