The little girl was crying her heart out in the forest, as if trying to vent all the fear and sadness within her.
Lu Yu stood by her side, quietly accompanying the ceaselessly weeping girl, as moonlight draped over them, casting dark shadows on the ground that seemed so harmonious.
After an unknown period, Cui Cui finally emerged from her sorrowful state, wiped her somewhat swollen eyes, and quickly looked around, searching for Lu Yu.
Sure enough, not far away, she spotted the handsome young man holding a small treasured sword and carving something on a piece of wood.
Moved by curiosity, Cui Cui approached and then realized that the young man in the green robe was carving a wooden plaque, which bore a single character. She had heard the literate uncle next door mention this character before, the character was "human."
Lu Yu, sensing Cui Cui's approach, finished his last stroke and looked at the curious-faced Cui Cui, saying, "Cui Cui, I have a task for you. Can you do it?"
