"Eee-yaah!" the little deer made a seemingly ferocious but actually timid cry towards the Qingqiu Mountain Master.
"You'll stay by my side during this time, and don't even think about running off to find Mimi," the Qingqiu Mountain Master said sternly, "lest you get into trouble yourself before you even find Mimi!"
The little deer fell silent, but the mist in its large eyes grew heavier.
"Mountain Lord, what has happened?" Lu Qingshan, witnessing this scene, had a vague understanding of the situation, "Perhaps I could be of some help?"
Interrupted by Lu Qingshan, the Qingqiu Mountain Master paused, sizing him up for a moment as if awakened by Lu Qingshan's words.
Could it indeed be a solution to the current predicament?
The Qingqiu Mountain Master thought for a while and decided not to hide anything, pointing at the young deer Yaoyao, she asked Lu Qingshan, "Do you know about Yaoyao's origins?"
Lu Qingshan shook his head.
