Chapter 1066
Chapter 1066: Chapter 1066
I was born on the day the clouds fell.
My mother told me that there was a fire under the sky that set the clouds ablaze, plunging the entire world into a sea of fire.
That day, most of my people died, and that was the day I was born.
I didn’t have a name, and in my people, names didn’t seem to have much use, only… how to survive in this cruel world!
I don’t know why, but we, who never kill, always become the prey of others. Humans like to hunt us, Peel off our skin, and make their clothes.
The blood on the skin can be washed away, but can the death Qi on it be washed away..
Cut off our horns, and make them into what they call souvenirs.
But we, who are weak, have no qualification to be souvenirs?
We drank our blood because it seemed to be able to cure some of their diseases.
But the dagger that pierced our hearts, the warm blood that was released, at the same time, it used all of our lives!
So from the moment I was born, I had always been afraid, always evaded, and always remained vigilant, but this was clearly not enough… because this world belonged to steel, belonged to humans.., it belonged to the majestic city walls that had been built.
It was also because I seemed to be somewhat special. The fur on my body was white, and I was different from all my clansmen. My horns were also white, and even my eyes were the same!
And this difference, after I was discovered by someone, brought me an endless catastrophe..
It was this catastrophe that made me understand why the fire in the sky that my mother had mentioned on the day I was born came. It was a weapon, a weapon that was said to… be able to destroy this world.
The reason why I knew all this was because it was difficult for me to escape fate. In this catastrophe, the race had abandoned me, and my mother had abandoned me. It was because my existence seemed to be the source of the entire race’s destruction.
I wanted to run and chase after them, but I didn’t dare… from the moment I was born, I had always been careful. That was why I didn’t dare to shout loudly, nor did I dare to run at high speed. Because the sound of running would cause me to fall deeper into danger.
That was until, after I was abandoned, I became the spoils of war for a person whose name I didn’t know.
What he needed wasn’t the skin that carried the aura of death, nor was it the blood that had lost its temperature. Instead, it was the living me. That was a gift, a gift for the city lord.
And so… after starving for a long time, I was sent into the city and became one of the so-called strange beasts in the city Lord’s backyard.
I sometimes thought that I was lucky. Although I had lost my freedom, lost my race, and was raised in captivity here, I didn’t need to hide, nor did I need to be afraid, nor did I have the time to run, in addition… I also had some friends here.
Among my friends, there was the wise old ape, the aggressive tiger, and the charming fox. As for the others… I didn’t like them because they were too fierce.
The Old Ape was a very strange fellow. It was very old, so old that its entire body was covered in wrinkles. It liked to sit cross-legged on the hill, liked to put some stones around, liked to have a fixed day every year, and called us to celebrate its birthday.
It said that this was called a birthday celebration.
And it seemed to have been here for a very, very long time, so much so that it seemed to know many things, becoming an omniscient existence in the backyard.
The Little Tiger was different from it. The Little Tiger liked to fight very much, and seemed to be working hard to become the overlord of the yard. It was also because of it that I could not be bullied here. At the same time, it also had a hobby, and that was to like water. It had once said that.., when it got old, if it could be buried in a waterfall pool, it would definitely be very good.
As for Ah Hu… Although we were friends, I didn’t really like some of its things. It was sent here after me. After coming here, she liked to send her hair to other strange beasts, and every strange beast that got its hair seemed to be very happy.
But I was worried that one day she would go bald. In addition, I discovered a secret about her. The person who got the most hair would usually die silently not long after.
But no matter what, we were friends, so I wouldn’t take the hair that she gave me.
I originally thought that my entire life might be spent in this courtyard until the ultimate. Perhaps one day, I would also become a wise person like the old ape, until I Met… her.
It was a little girl who seemed to be only three or five years old. Her expression was a little cute, and she tried her best to act like a little adult, but… she was a little baby fat.
However, her eyes were very bright, as if they were stars.
Beside her was a middle-aged man with a head full of white hair. Their clothes were different from everyone else in this world. I didn’t know how to describe them, but the most intelligent old ape in the backyard told me that they were called Immortals.
I didn’t know what immortals were, but I knew that the arrival of the white-haired man made the city Lord, who looked like the heavens in my eyes, tremble and kneel down, as if he were a servant.
Perhaps this was nothing, but if all the city lords in this world were kneeling there, then the meaning… would be different.
“My daughter wants to write a book, so I brought her here to look for material.”This was what the white-haired man said to the countless city lords who were kneeling down.
I understood what a book was, but I didn’t understand what material meant, but it didn’t matter. The Wise Old Ape explained everything to me, but unfortunately… Even though I tried my best to look at the little girl, when I passed by her in the backyard.., she didn’t notice my existence.
This was the first time we met, and it was also the beginning of my life as a companion… because the little girl that I thought would disappear from my eyes fell down as she jumped and ran happily.
Her father didn’t help her up. Instead, he looked at her gently and watched the little girl climb up on her own. However, at that moment, I didn’t know what kind of force was pushing me. Perhaps it was the purity of the little girl’s body.., or perhaps it was the way she tried not to cry after she got up, but her tears flowed down.
Thus, I walked over. While all my friends around were shocked, and all the city lords around were panicking, I came to her side and licked the tears from the corner of her eyes.
It was as if my tongue made her feel itchy, so the little girl giggled. Her eyes were filled with curiosity as she used her small hands to caress the hair on my head.
It was very comfortable.
“Father, can I have this little white deer?”The little girl turned her head and looked at the white-haired middle-aged man. I turned my head and looked over as well.
From the white-haired middle-aged man’s eyes, I saw my own figure. It was a young white deer.
This was me. Perhaps it was due to the effects of the Weapon I was born with, but… After I grew to a certain extent, I stopped developing and remained in my infant form forever.
However, for some unknown reason, there seemed to be some other meaning in the white-clothed middle-aged man’s eyes. I didn’t know what it was, but it didn’t matter because he nodded.
This was the first time I had left this place since I entered the backyard.
When I left, I bid farewell to the Old Ape. I told it that I might not be able to return for the next birthday celebration. The Old Ape said that it didn’t matter and that we would meet again.
Although the old ape’s gaze became even more profound when it said this, as if it could see the future, far, far away… I didn’t care because I knew that its gaze wasn’t very good.
As for Little Tiger, it went to fight again, so my farewell didn’t succeed. However, Ah Hu cried. It was as if she had given me fur when she left, but I still didn’t want it, so she cried very sadly.
However, I wasn’t sad, because after leaving the city Lord’s estate, I followed the little girl and her father to travel around this world, so I had a name.
“Little white deer, I’ll give you a name. You’ll be called… Little White!”
I really liked this name. Just as I was about to nod, her father spoke up from the side.
“No.”
“Why, Daddy?”
”…”the middle-aged man didn’t say anything, but the little girl kept asking me questions. In the end, he seemed to be a little helpless as he spoke up.
“Because Daddy doesn’t like the word white.”
“Then let’s call it baby.”The little girl pouted, but she quickly thought of a new name. She held my head and kept talking.
And so, I had a name. This name was called baby.
