My Big Brother is Seeking Death Again
Chapter 22: Never give up the spirit of learning (1)

"Meow~" The Big Meow suddenly stopped rubbing itself with Shi Xia and turned back before pushing a bundle of cloth with its claws. The back of a little girl who had huddled herself into a ball could be seen poking out the bundle.

Shi Xia was stunned. She pointed to herself and asked, "You are giving this to me?"

"Meow!" Nod nod.

Big Meow is still polite, always know how to return the favor!

Shi Xia grabbed the bundle of cloth and picked it up from the ground. The shivering little body froze for a moment before shivering even more. Shi Xia untied the mouth of the bundle as she tried to soothe the little one, "don't be afraid, Big Meow was just teasing you, it does not eat people." She brushed the dirts from the little girl's face, and was about to ask where she came from when she was shocked seeing the familiar face.

"Niu Niu?!" Isn't this the little girl whom she saved six months ago? Big Meow was not only bullying children, it even had the habit of bullying the same person.

The little girl froze before raising her head. When she saw Shi Xia's face, she also became dumbfounded and didn't speak for a long time.

It seems she is really frightened. Shi Xia tried to lighten the tone of her voice as she asked, "Niu Niu, do you remember me? I'm sister Xia. We met six months ago, remember?"

The girl opened her mouth, seemed to want to say something, but couldn't make a sound. Her tears started to fall like a dam was broken, sobs leaked her mouth in whimpers.

The girl finally recognised Shi Xia and jumped into her arms.

"Wu wu ah …… sister …… sister, wow ah ah ……" she cried miserably, as if being wronged, her cries were mixed with hiccups. Two small hands like iron were holding Shi Xia in a deadly embrace. How come this little girl has so much strength!

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore. Sister is here." Shi Xia felt heartache for her. She turned around and glared fiercely at the culprit and couldn't help but scold it, "Look what you did!"

Big Meow only twisted its head without any sense of guilt before turning its fluffy butt towards her, seemingly uninterested in her scolding.

"……" Big Meow is really unbelievable.

Shi Xia sighed and turned back to Niu Niu. She wiped away Niu Niu's tears and took a careful look at her. She was surprised to replace that the girl Niu Niu looked even worse than six months ago. Her body became noticeably thin with dirt covering almost everywhere. It seemed she didn't take a bath for a long time, the clothes on her body also had several holes on them.

"Niu Niu, how come you're here alone? Where's your brother?" Shi Xia remembered perfectly that Niu Niu had a brother named Xuan Lin, how did she got separated from him again?

Niu Niu froze for a moment, subconsciously squeezed herself into a ball again in her arms. After a long time passed, she whispered in a little voice, "Brother said, he went to, to look for immortals, and told …… me to wait."

What?

What's this nonsense? Shi Xia patted her back and picked away the fallen leaves from her body. While doing this, she tried several times to know more information, sounding as if she wasn't curious and just asking. Niu Niu also cooperated fully and revealed everything. Shi Xia finally understood what had happened to the brother and sister duo.

It turned out that after she was transported away that day, Xuan Lin once again set on the journey of replaceing a sect to cultivate immortality. But who knew if it was for their bad luck, they never found it. After a long journey and passing so much hardship, they finally heard that there was a sect near Dragon City, which was accepting disciples, so they ran all the way here. But accidentally got separated on the way again.

Shi Xia frowned hearing her, this Xuan Lin is also really careless. Last time he lost his sister in the forest, this time in a city. He couldn't even properly watch over his sister.

After sorting out the information, Shi Xia found that Xuan Lin, Niu Niu's brother was probably in Dragon City right now. She had to go back to the Yuhua Sect and report her so-called brother that Yuanwu was trying to kill her. But she had to be careful on the way, lest Yuanwu knew she wasn't dead and came to settle the scores again.

Besides, this matter may have other hidden agenda, Yuanwu knew that if she died, the first suspect must be him, but he still dared to do it. Which only meant that he had already thought of a way out of it, and how to deal with the cheap brother and Bi Hong. Maybe there was someone backing him?

Once she started thinking this, Shi Xia couldn't help but shiver. If this was the case, she absolutely could not go back to Yuhua Sect, or she may die the moment she stepped there. Might as well first help Niu Niu go to Dragon City to replace Xuan Lin.

But the problem is …… where is Dragon City?

"Niu Niu, did your brother say where Dragon City is?"

Niu Niu shook her head.

Then how was she going to replace him?

"Meow!" The Big Meow, however, suddenly turned back toward her and purred.

"You know?"

"Meow!" It nodded before turning around and got down in front of her. It curled its furry tail around her ankle and pulled it forward, signaling for her to ride on its back.

"You will take us there?" Shi Xia felt warm all over, Big Meow not only knew manner, he was also so generous. But she had never ridden such a big cat before.

"Meow~" Big Meow nodded its big head towards her, but looked slightly down at the person in her arms and growled lightly, as if threatening her. It successfully scared Niu Niu into dam that was about to break into tears again.

Its meaning was clear, it would take her, not Niu Niu.
