Chapter 114 Cotton Tao Niang
Chapter 114 Cotton Tao Niang
It was late at night. Bai Jie greeted the cotton peach and other beasts briefly and then prepared to go to sleep.
Bai Ze came to Bai Jie's side.
"What's wrong?" Bai Jie asked, looking at Bai Ze.
“If you need that kind of thing, maybe we could have them build a sculpture or something?” Bai Ze suddenly said to Bai Jie.
Bai Jie gave Bai Ze a deep look.
Sure enough, this guy knows everything.
"I will when the time comes," Bai Jie nodded.
Sibuxiang and Miantao exchanged a glance, clearly having no idea what Bai Jie and Bai Ze were talking about.
They listened silently, without interrupting them, maintaining basic politeness.
After Bai Jie finished talking, she looked at the Four-Faced Beast and the Cotton Peach.
"Aren't you curious?" Bai Jie asked, looking at the two silent beasts.
"We're curious, but if Jin Xian doesn't tell us, we won't ask," the Four-Faced Beast said with a squinting smile.
Cotton Boll nodded its little head to the side.
"Hey~ There's nothing I can't say, I just want those two-legged creatures to build some statues of us or something. If these guys encounter us again, they won't attack us directly, and we can also get some benefits." Bai Jie's words were half true and half false, but it was indeed the truth.
The four types of cotton bolls are clearly distinguishable.
"Alright, you can go to sleep now. See you in my dreams~" Bai Jie nestled in Si Bu Xiang's arms and fell asleep quietly.
. . .
After visiting the villa, Bai Jie returned to her dream.
The cotton boll-shaped quail is already waiting here.
"Oh ho~ Sorry to keep you waiting, shall we go and explore some other dreams?" Bai Jie asked the two beasts with a smile.
"Yay!" Cotton Boll jumped up and shouted.
Cotton Peach's favorite time was at night when she went out with Bai Jie to fight nightmares and chase the Wisdom Thief.
They wandered through the connecting space, occasionally giving Nightmare a burst of dream energy.
At this moment, Cotton Boll's nose twitched.
“Daddy’s dream is nearby! Let’s go play at Daddy’s place~” Cotton Peach pointed in a direction and said happily to Bai Jie and Si Bu Xiang.
“Okay~” Bai Jie said with a smile.
And so, led by Miantao, Bai Jie and the others arrived at the edge of Miantao's father's dream.
“This is Father’s dream!” Cotton Peach said.
After saying that, the three beasts plunged into Cotton Peach Father's dream.
Bai Jie looked around. The dream of Mian Tao's father was very familiar to them. There were no plants or trees around, and there were jade stones inlaid in the mountain wall.
Isn't this Shizhe Mountain? Hmm... I should say, it's no wonder it's an old-generation beast. It has such a sentimental attachment to the past, but it's not bad.
"Father!" Miantao shouted loudly and ran towards the direction of Miantao's house.
Since it's Stone Mountain, it goes without saying where the beasts are.
Cotton Peach ran very fast, while Bai Jie and the others followed behind, making sure they weren't left behind.
"Dad...? Huh?" Cotton Peach had already run to the house, only to find two Mengji in front of her!
Who is that figure...?
"Mother!" Mian Tao's face lit up with an excited smile as she rushed towards her mother.
"Huh?" Cotton Peach Girl was shocked, but her claws moved quickly, catching the Cotton Peach that pounced on her.
Cotton Peach's father, who was chatting with his wife, wasn't too surprised. He had sensed it when Bai Jie and the other two beasts entered the dream.
"I knew it was you, little one. Where are your two friends?" Cotton Peach's dad patted Cotton Peach's head.
"Hehe~ They're still on their way!" Miantao laughed as she enjoyed her parents rubbing her head.
"Mian'er has made so many friends while I was away~" Mian Tao Niang said with satisfaction.
“Of course! One of them and I are best friends! We’ve known each other for a long time~” Cotton Peach said, raising her head. “If Daddy hadn’t stopped me from going out to play earlier, we would have met long ago!”
After saying that, Miantao snorted at her father.
Seeing her husband's embarrassed expression, Mian Taoniang covered her mouth and laughed.
"Alright, your father was just trying to protect you from harm, so don't blame him~" Cotton Peach Mother said, "Your mother won't be back for a while, so you two should get to know each other better."
"Okay—" Cotton Peach was disappointed to hear that her mother would not be back for a while, but the next second her tail perked up again.
“Then, then, let me introduce our friends to Mother first!” Cotton Peach said, waving her paws.
At that moment, Bai Jie and Si Bu Xiang also happened to come into their line of sight.
Bai Jie and the Four-Faced Beast, who were being stared at by the three Mengji, were also a little confused. What was going on? Weren't there two Mengji? How did it become three?
Bai Jie looked at the Mengji holding Mian Tao and thought, "Hiss~ It looks just like Mian Tao when she grew up. Is it Mian Tao's mother?"
Bai Jie had a guess in her mind; the probability of this was quite high.
Cotton Peach Girl looked at the Pixiu on the head of the Qilin, her eyes narrowed slightly. She sensed a dream-entering power from Bai Jie that seemed stronger than her own.
Although that Qilin had the same energy fluctuations as the Pixiu, it was very weak. She was certain that this Qilin's talent was terrible; even the weakest Mengji was stronger than it.
Of course, these words are best left unsaid; it's enough to keep them to yourself.
"Hello, thank you for taking care of Mian'er recently. I am her mother," Mian Tao's mother greeted with a smile.
Bai Jie nodded, confirming her suspicions.
"It's nothing, it's what we should do. Mian Tao and I are best friends~" Bai Jie replied with a smile.
"I'll probably come looking for you again in a while, and I'll be troubling you then," said Cotton Peach Girl.
“Mother~ I’ve already told Baijie and the others about this!” Miantao said, raising her paw in her mother’s arms.
“Yes, Miantao has already told us that we welcome you anytime~” Bai Jie pinched Miantao’s cheek.
"Um, your name is Bai Jie, right? Come with me for a moment, I have something to tell you." Cotton Peach Girl put Cotton Peach on the ground and said to Bai Jie.
Bai Jie was a little confused. They wanted to see her? What did they want?
Bai Jie glanced at the Four-Faced Beast, who shook his head, also unaware of the answer.
"Okay," Bai Jie said with a smile. Mian Tao was still here and shouldn't do anything to him. Besides, he had absolute confidence in his own strength.
Bai Jie and Mian Tao Niang walked to a place a little further away from the remaining three beasts.
"Bai Jie, I'm in a rather troublesome situation. If I rely on myself, it might take a long time before I can get out," Cotton Peach Girl finally sighed and said.
"What's the troublesome part?" Bai Jie asked, somewhat puzzled.
“Well, I can use my dream power to get out of there, but it’s very slow. So, I’d like you to help me,” Cotton Peach Girl said.
She felt a little awkward. She had only just met this beast, yet she wanted to use her daughter's connection to get him to help her.
