Interlude: Text in picture books (I)
A long time ago, a little girl named "Leos" was born. She had a mother who loved her very much. The mother and daughter lived in a bustling town and lived a happy and comfortable life.
The town is surrounded by woods, and everything in the town can be self-sufficient, so few people are willing to enter the land outside the town. However, Levitra is full of curiosity about such unknown things. As she grows older, she yearns for the outside world.
However, Leji was worried about her mother. She enjoyed the time she spent with her mother very much, so she was in a dilemma.
It is said that all residents in the town will sooner or later suffer from a strange disease, which causes a major change in temperament, accelerates aging, and eventually has to pass away.
People with good luck may not get sick until they are two or three hundred years old, while some people die from illness when they are forty or fifty years old. This uncertainty aggravates people's fear of the disease.
And just one morning, something happened that scared Leji and Russia: their mother was caught by illness.
My mother's soft black hair gradually dyed white, and her strong arms became as thin as dead branches. Looking at her mother's face that was constantly losing her angry face, Lie's tears continued to flow, but she did not give up any attempt. For this reason, she ran all over the town and asked the respected doctor for help.
One day, overworked Leo fell asleep on his mother's bed. In her dream, she saw a man holding five matches in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand.
The man told Levitra:
"Her illness is extremely serious, and ordinary methods cannot save her. If you want to cure your mother, you must embark on a road where few people explore and endless - leave the town and walk north, take its teeth from the dragon's mouth and grind it into powder, which is the medicine that can cure all diseases."
After waking up, Leo told his friends about her dreams and asked them to take care of her mother for him. Then he began his journey of finding the dragon without hesitation.
......
Soon, Leo met three witches and she asked the witches:
"Can you meet a dragon by walking along this road?"
"The dragon? Oh hehe... As long as you want, you can see it in the end whether it is east, west or north."
"Yes, yes, just don't get lost."
"But be careful, don't be tempted, only the dragon can realize your wish."
The witches replied.
Leo thanked them and continued to move forward.
......
The next day, Leo passed by a village where she met a boy.
The handsome young man's face was full of sorrow. The enthusiastic Leo extended a helping hand to him, but he shook his head.
"No, only by my own strength can I solve the troubles I have. Once I receive help from anyone, I will suffer a longer period of torture."
No matter how Leji persuaded the young man, he was unmoved. Later, he even drove Leji away with wooden sticks.
"Stay away from me! Don't stand by my side! You must be trying to hurt me."
So, helpless Legal and Russia decided to walk away.
However, soon, she saw the boy again. She felt very strange: she had never looked back, and the boy had never followed her, why did they still meet?
This time, the young man still stared at Leji with hostile eyes, in order to warn her not to get close to him.
Levitra had no choice but to hide his suspicion, continue to rush, and confirm that his direction was not wrong.
However, ten minutes later, Leo actually bumped into the boy again.
"I've told you all, don't bother me! Why do you always bother me?"
The boy was furious and walked towards the at a loss of Leo, who was at a loss. In desperation, Leo, hurriedly told her what happened, but the boy didn't believe it at all.
"You are definitely lying unless you stay where you are and I'll give it my own."
The boy explained this.
Immediately, without waiting for Leji to answer, the boy ran away and disappeared into the bushes in the blink of an eye.
Leo sat on the ground for a nap, while her sore legs only took a rest for a while, and the stunned boy appeared again.
"Okay, I blamed you wrongly, sorry."
The boy lowered his head to Levitra in frustration.
Levitra forgave the young man and began to think about how to solve this problem.
"Will we be trapped in this wood forever? No! My father still needs me to save him. He specifically emphasized that if I can't get the dragon scales of the dragon alone, the demon will devour his soul. I can't kill my father, I have to escape."
The despair in his heart made the boy cry, while the strong Legal and Russia remained calm.
Finally, Leo thought of a solution. She asked the boy to move north with her, keeping a distance between them that they could always see each other, leaving marks with wooden sticks while walking.
They slowed down and walked with breath and focused, and the scenery in front of them gradually turned into a plain - they succeeded!
Sure enough, a person cannot get out of the woods.
The boy burst into tears and laughed, and excitedly held Leo's hand.
"Thank you! You are the benefactor of my father and me. My previous rude behavior is so stupid. I'm sorry."
Leo breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered the boy's words just now, and quickly said that he was also looking for the dragon and invited the boy to walk with him.
The boy hesitated because his father once warned himself: he must use his own strength to defeat the dragon and cannot rely on others.
Leo seemed to have seen through the boy's thoughts and sincerely comforted him:
"Don't be afraid, we are helping each other, and no one will be inferior to others."
In the end, the boy accepted the proposal of Leji and became her first partner.
......
Leo and the teenagers arrived in a place called the "Rat Kingdom". The people here all had a long tail. It is said that their ancestors were a giant mouse. In order to adapt to the environment, they gradually evolved into humans, with only the tail without any change.
People in the "Rat Kingdom" are proud of having long tails. They tied many bells and decorations to their tails. In this way, as long as they shake their tails, the "Jingdong" ringtone can attract others to look at their beautiful tails.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! However, Leo found a girl with no decoration on her tail among the pile of bells.
The kind-hearted Leo bought an exquisite bell in the store and wanted to give it to the girl, but the girl shook her head repeatedly and said:
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not that I can't afford to buy a bell, but I'm worried that the ringing of the bell will attract a dragon."
"Aren't the dragon in the far north?"
The boy asked in confusion.
"Yes, but it often flies over high mountains and ridges to our kingdom to slaughter civilians. We can't do anything about it..."
Then, a harsh sirens sound quickly filled the entire "Rat Kingdom".
The girl quickly pulled the hands of the boy and Leo, and her words were full of panic:
"The dragon is coming, hurry up! Come with me."
Then, under the guidance of the girl, they hid in the hole dug in advance and held their breath and focused.
About eight or nine hours later, the sirens finally disappeared, and they and other people from the "Rat Kingdom" crawled out of the hole.
It is not difficult to judge based on the expressions on everyone's faces - most people have become accustomed to the attack of the dragon.
"Damn dragon, I will definitely defeat it!"
The boy looked at the girl who was still scared and waved wooden sticks into the sky angrily.
"Are you going to see the dragon?"
Leo patted the girl on the shoulder and comforted her:
"Yes, don't worry, we will work to end this unstoppable disaster."
"Please... allow me to walk with you!"
The girl who had just looked timid actually made a request to make Leji stunned.
"It's too dangerous, you should be with your family."
The boy wanted to persuade the girl to give up this idea, but the girl shook her head firmly:
"My family was eaten by the dragon."
Seeing this, the boy fell into silence.
So Leji had to agree to the girl, and the girl became Leji's companion. She told Leji and the boy that her name was Maru.
