C276 flying animal (1/2)
The elf was a flying animal. She had been flying all her life, and it didn't matter if she became old or sick. As long as she had a breath left, she would still be flying, unless she died.
Carrying the heavily injured and still diligently, Shui Ruobing quickly discovered Chang Jing and Si Ai who were standing next to the tree. With a wave of her hand, she flew over to the command post.
”It's over,” the two shouted at the same time. ”Let's run!”
Chang Jing was worried that the maidservant would be found out and play with him. He did not want this pitiful and cute little sister to be punished by anyone, but what Si Ai was worried about was not that, she only feared that Shui Ruobing would say whatever she wanted to say.
Before the two of them could even get up, the patrol squad that Shui Ruobing had brought along had already flown in front of them.
Chang Jing hurriedly said, ”General Shui Ruobing, this is all my fault. Please, for my sake, don't punish her!”
But Shui Ruobing ignored him, before she settled down, she cupped her hands together and shouted in unison with her subordinates, ”We greet the Grand patriarch!”
”Wait!” Si Ai shouted with all her might, ”Didn't I say it? I am just a small maidservant serving Grand patriarch, there is no need for you all to pay respects to me, if not, I will let others see you all eating till the end!”
Shui Ruobing was stunned, but seeing Si Ai's blinking eyes, she tactfully shut her mouth.
Chang Jing thought, at this time, she had to get close to in order to save him.
Thinking about this, he walked forward and asked caringly, ”Is General Shui's injury all right? How did he come out to patrol so quickly?” That spirit of yours is truly worthy of us learning from! ”
Shui Ruobing laughed bitterly, thinking, if your student did not make me look like this, would I have come out with heavy injuries? If I don't come out, then I'll have to give up this position that I've earned with great difficulty!
She did not reply Chang Jing, she only gave him a friendly nod before turning to Si Ai and said respectfully, ”Since that's the case, I will take my leave now.”
Si Ai smiled sincerely and quickly replied: ”Alright, let's go!”
After the Elves flew far away, Chang Jing and Si Ai heaved a sigh of relief.
”It was dangerous just now,” Chang Jing said as she looked at Si Ai's anxious and flushed face. ”But it seems like the red person in front of Grand patriarch is pretty strong, everyone seems to be afraid of you!”
”Of course!” Si Ai pouted her small mouth, looking just like a little flame dance, ”They didn't even have enough time to kiss my ass, how would they dare say anything else!”
”A scammer and a scoundrel!”
”Hehe,” Si Ai said triumphantly, as if she was enjoying Chang Jing's evaluation of her. ”Brother, let's not talk about this anymore, alright? ”Didn't you say you want to play with me? Then let's go quickly, I'll take you to another place to play!”
Chang Jing nodded happily in agreement, and held her hand as if she were her little sister, and walked towards the even more spacious grassland.
On the way, they stopped and walked about, either shuttling through the jungle or smelling the fragrance of flowers.
Chang Jing noticed that the Little Fairy Si Ai rarely ever took the initiative to use her beautiful wings to fly, and she liked to use her bare little feet to walk on the ground, step by step.
”Sister,” he was very curious, compared to the Elves, flying should be easier, so he couldn't help but ask the two of them when they were a little tired from playing, ”Why are you walking with your feet and not flying with your wings?”
”Hmm?” Si Ai looked at him and thought, then answered him seriously, ”You must be asking because you think that flying is easier and faster for us Fairies. However, although flying is good, it will make us gradually forget about it as the earth is our mother, and only by stepping in her embrace and feeling her warmth, will the Fairies be able to keep their faith!”
These profound words didn't seem like something a little girl should say. Chang Jing couldn't help but be surprised and started to re-evaluate her.
”Heh, I thought that the faiths of the elves were like the sky, but to think that you all, who have a pair of wings more than the Homo sapiens, would actually adopt the earth as your mother.”
”'The sky is the father, the earth is the mother', this is something that we knew since we were young,” Si Ai paused for a moment before continuing, ”We respect the heavens as if we respect the father, but we constantly think about the mother of the earth — to the children, the mother is the most amiable.
”Maybe!”
The two of them went back into play, but the conversation was deeply engraved in Chang Jing's mind, it had a profound meaning for him in the future.
