After waking up from a dream, I became the white moonlight of a paranoid wizard

Chapter 3: Telling lies will make your nose grow longer!

Eric struggled to hold the firewood, piled it up into a small hill, and squatted aside, staring at Arlo's big black eyes to make fire.

Arlo's fair and delicate fingertips were almost worn out, and sparks finally appeared on the dead wood branches.

"You are so awesome!" Eric rubbed her toes.

Ai Luo lightly curled the corners of his lips and wiped a handful of the dark dust on the tip of his nose.

She has never known the suffering in the world. When has she ever suffered such injustice?

The mushroom rack is sizzling on the flames and smelling fragrant.

Ai Luo stared at the bright yellow mushroom in the corner and swallowed.

Can you eat it?

Shouldn't he be dead?

The toad beside him almost dripped its seeds to the ground, and Ai Luo suddenly wanted to test the poison on him.

"and many more!"

Ai Luo had just picked up the bamboo stick and handed it to Eric's mouth. The sound of milky milk behind her made her loosen her little hands in surprise.

Half of the mushroom fell to the ground, covered with dust.

Ai Luo raised his eyes resentfully and glared at the uninvited guest.

The little girl was clutching the bamboo basket tightly. She was wearing a red cloak. Her clothes were torn and old. Her delicately carved face was covered with dust. Only her eyes were particularly bright. It's the naivety of a girl.

"Want to eat?" Ai Luo raised his eyebrows slightly, "No."

The little girl shook her head and threw the mushrooms on the branches far away: "I am a little girl who picks mushrooms. Based on my 3000 years of mushroom picking experience, the mushrooms you want to eat just now should be poisonous."

"I believe you..."

"These are not poisonous." Before she could finish speaking, the little girl handed over her bamboo basket with a sincere smile, "However, there is a condition in exchange with me."

Ai Luo suppressed the second half of his words, hesitantly asked: "What conditions?"

"Gather a hundred mushrooms for me, and I will trade with you and take you out of this forest."

"Why don't you go and rob?"

"Mom said that robbery is wrong." The little girl shook her head seriously.

Arlo: "..."

The little girl's conditions were too tempting, so Ailuo gritted his teeth. Under her guidance, he quickly picked a basket full of mushrooms.

It wasn't until the little girl casually handed her a mushroom and gave her a map that was almost the same as the fairy's that Arlo knew she had been deceived.

Turning over the small piece of paper, there was a line of small words printed clearly in the lower right corner——

Made In China
"I'm sorry!"

Ai Luo threw the note to the ground angrily, and added a few more kicks to vent his anger.

Nowadays, if children tell lies, won’t their noses grow longer?
The little girl also said that she was picking mushrooms to visit her grandmother. She hoped she would meet the big bad wolf!

"Bam—"

A shotgun blast pierced the sky.

Ai Luo suddenly realized and turned around silently.

Excuse me, she doesn't know anything.
-
Re-erect the branches of dead trees to make fire.

Arlo broke the roasted mushroom in half and gave half to Eric at his feet. He held half of the mushroom and squatted in the corner of the tree stump, chewing slowly, his fair little cheeks bulging and his eyelashes curled. Droop over eyelids.

The disheveled girl could not hide the nobility engraved in her bones.

Eric quickly finished half a piece of mushroom, licked the corner of his mouth with unfinished content, and looked up at the increasingly cloudy sky: "Arlo, we probably need to find a place to take shelter from the rain first."

Iroh swallowed the last bite of the mushroom and nodded.

Eric wiped his belly with his webbed palms and jumped ahead to clear the way, while Arlo followed closely behind.

Across the hill, Eric led Aurora into the cave.

Just a few steps closer, the bats in the cave roared out!
