Chen Luo was a little dumbfounded for a moment, when did this little girl who can't even hold a sickle have so much strength?

Dumbfounded, Chen Luo quickly dealt with the werewolves, letting them dissipate in black smoke.

Looking at the cracks made by Xi'er, this strength is probably comparable to Chen Luo's now.

"Mr. Chen Luo, Xier successfully defeated a Mr. Werewolf!"

She seemed a little excited, and said happily to Chen Luo.

"Uh...it's almost time, let's go look for Little Red Riding Hood after we pack up the grilled fish."

…………

After a long journey in the sea of ​​trees, Chen Luo and Xi'er came to a cave.

Along the way, following Xi'er's intuitive guidance and Chen Luo's ability to sense electromagnetic fields, the two finally came here.

"Mr. Chen Luo, should we go and have a look inside that cave?"

"In that cave..."

Chen Luo squinted her eyes and felt that there was a living creature's breath inside, and there was more than one.

One of the breaths was very powerful, much stronger than those dark werewolves who attacked Chen Luo and Xi'er on the road.

And then, a young girl... no, more precisely, a young girl's scream, which caught the attention of Chen Luo and Xi'er.

Accompanied by her scream, there was a werewolf roar.

It seemed that the powerful aura came from the werewolf.

Chen Luo stared cautiously at the entrance of the cave, and saw a huge werewolf rushing out. However, it seemed to completely ignore the existence of Xi'er and Chen Luo, and immediately jumped into the grass and disappeared after running out of the cave.

"...There are still people inside, Xi'er, let's go in and take a look first."

Chen Luo pondered.

"Ah."

Finding the missing Red Riding Hood is more important than defeating the enemy.

The two walked into the cave, the inside of the cave was pitch black, but luckily Chen Luo could drive the thunder, and he gathered lightning in his palm, illuminating the path in the cave.

The cave was not deep, and the two of them didn't go far before they found a shivering little girl sitting on the ground at the end of the cave.

She has short golden hair, a red cloak, and a red hat. There are bread and red wine in the basket in her hand.

Needless to say, her identity was already revealed.

...It's just that Little Red Riding Hood, why does she look like a young Bianca?

"I'm Little Red Riding Hood Bianca, big brother, big sister, who are you...?"

Little Red Riding Hood asked timidly.

"Little sister, don't worry, we are here to save you."

Xi'er took the initiative to step forward, squatted down, and gently stroked Little Red Riding Hood's hair.

"...Have you been hiding here all this time?"

Chen Luo asked.

"Hmm... I was attacked by Mr. Werewolf on the road. I finally got rid of them and hid here. I have survived with bread and red wine until now..."

"...At your age, it's not easy to think of such a method."

The cave is dimly lit and easy to hide in, but it is indeed a very good hiding place that is not easy to find.

Chen Luo and Xi'er arrived in time, and the werewolf did not cause any harm to Little Red Riding Hood.

"Mr. Chen Luo, let's take Little Red Riding Hood back to the village of nursery rhymes."

Xi'er got up and suggested to Chen Luo.

"Well, let's go back and finish the mission of the old village chief first...By the way, Little Red Riding Hood, did you have a sickle on you before you set off?"

According to Chen Luo's impression, the scythe named Nursery Rhyme is very huge, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible for such a little girl to wield it.

"Ah... Brother, are you talking about nursery rhymes? I lost it when I was attacked by Mr. Werewolf."

Little Red Riding Hood replied.

Immediately afterwards, she asked Chen Luo and Xi'er again.

"Well... big brother, big sister, I'm a little worried, I want to go to grandma's house first."

"I understand how you feel, but this forest is too dangerous for you. From my point of view, it's better to go back to the village of nursery rhymes first."

Chen Luo thought for a moment, then replied.

"Mr. Chen Luo, Little Red Riding Hood's grandma lives alone in the forest, and she may also be threatened by Mr. Werewolf. I think we should..."

"...Okay, listen to Xier."

In fact, it doesn't matter where Chen Luo goes first, since Xi'er wants to go to grandma's house first, then it's up to her.

Chen Luo walked forward and stretched out his hand to Little Red Riding Hood who was sitting on the ground.

"How about it, can you still walk? Do you want me to carry you?"

Little Red Riding Hood shook her head and said.

"I... I can still walk, thank you big brother and big sister, I will lead the way, please go to grandma's house with me."

Chapter 5 A Preordained Destiny

"Big Brother, Big Sister, are you from outside?"

After walking out of the cave, Little Red Riding Hood led Xi'er and Chen Luo towards the other end of the forest.

"Well, I came from a very far away place, as for Xier..."

Well, Chen Luo didn't know the specific origin of this Xi'er, but at least she should not be an aborigine in the world of Little Red Riding Hood.

Xier said with a smile.

"I...should also come from a distant place."

"Hey, it turns out that big brother and big sister didn't come together?"

Little Red Riding Hood asked curiously.

"I saw you both had blue eyes and blue hair, and I thought you were brother and sister or something."

"Hmmm... If you put it that way, it does look a bit like..."

For the time being, Chen Luo still looks like Geoffrey Joyce, with dark blue hair and dark blue eyes, which are very similar to Xier's hair color and pupils. If you walk on the street, you will probably be recognized as a brother and sister.

"By the way, Little Red Riding Hood, can you tell Big Brother the story about this place?"

"here?"

Little Red Riding Hood tilted her head and asked.

"Uh—it's about the 'Little Red Riding Hood's legacy'."

"Oh, this..."

Little Red Riding Hood lowered her head and was silent for a while, seeming to organize her words.

"It is said that a long time ago, there was a great existence named 'Storyteller' who created this place. He set rules for everyone. All the people living here can see through their own destiny. Everyone just needs to follow the established rules. Destiny lives on."

"From birth to death... playing the same character all the time?"

Seele asked.

"Well, this is the fate of the people living here, it is the established trajectory, and my destiny... is Little Red Riding Hood."

"I know my future from the beginning to the end... This feeling is really amazing."

"Well, Little Red Riding Hood, what if you deviate from the fate arranged by the storyteller and act differently from your fate?"

"Hey, I don't know much about this kind of thing..."

... Forget it, after all, she is only a child, and it is really difficult to get an answer if she asks her about the fundamentals of this world.

But... "storyteller" is a very interesting existence.

"Then, Little Red Riding Hood, do you know your own destiny?"

Xier asked with concern.

"Well, I'll set off with wine and bread, be swallowed by the dire wolf at Grandma's house, and then..."

Little Red Riding Hood didn't say anything more about it later.

That's right, after all, for a young girl, it is a bit scary to accept the fate of being eaten by the big bad wolf.

"Would you be scared?"

"...Of course, I'm terribly scared. Ever since I knew my fate, I've been so scared that I couldn't sleep."

"Well—it doesn't matter, at least Mr. Chen Luo and I are here now, and we will protect you from being bullied by the big bad wolf."

"……thanks."

"However, having said that, the appearance of these black werewolves should be different from the future you saw in your destiny, right?"

"Well, at first I thought you were the accomplices of Mr. Werewolves, after all, I've never seen you in such attire..."

Obviously someone distorted the development of the story and made the story go wrong.

If so, who would this person be?

From a usual point of view, Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf are the protagonist and the boss of this story respectively. Considering the issue of identity, it is more likely to be the Big Bad Wolf.

...Speaking of which, if calculated according to the time when Little Red Riding Hood left the house, even if her grandmother hadn't been eaten by the werewolves wandering in the forest, she should have been picked up by the big bad wolf long ago.

"Big brother and big sister, didn't they come from other story worlds? You...can't see your own destiny?"

Little Red Riding Hood asked aloud.

"...No, it would be quite convenient if there is such a thing."

Chen Luo suddenly remembered what Lei Dianzhen once said to him, that the trajectory of every living being on Tivat has been determined, and the seat of fate in the starry sky has already announced their destiny.

Here and Tewat... In a sense, there are some similarities.

It's just that the people living on Tivat, except for a few beings who can peep into their fate, are walking on the path of their own destiny in a daze.

Ha, this kind of freedom where everything is secretly arranged, can it still be called freedom?

The one who weaves the world where Little Red Riding Hood lives is an all-knowing existence called "Storyteller", so who is it that weaves the stories of the world of Teyvat...?

However, Lei Dianzhen also told him that his future is not engraved in the starry sky of Tivat, so Chen Luo can still actively choose his own future and destiny, and he can also change the destiny of others.

At least it was because of him that Lei Dian was awakened and sacrificed because of him... In the end, he would also be resurrected by himself.

"If I hadn't followed Istaru's words and came to this magical place, I would have been taken back to the castle tower or Narugami Shrine by Lei Movie by now for treatment."

Chen Luo thought silently.

After all, why did Istaru help him?Has she already foreseen that she will come to this magical place, get rescued, and meet a girl named Xier?

When Tivat's time is in power, can the power controlled by it see other worlds outside the world?

In any case, the ruler who controls time chooses to help Chen Luo, which shows that Chen Luo is very important to her.

Maybe in the past, maybe in the future, I might have some intersection with this supreme god.

The other party is a god who can see into the past and the future. She has much more information than Chen Luo, and she can't come to a conclusion even if she ponders over it here. Let's talk about it later.

As a "person in the story", Little Red Riding Hood must follow the guidance of fate to live, but Chen Luo and Xier, two outsiders, do not have to follow this rule.

Although it is not known who interfered with the normal development of the story here, Chen Luo and Xi'er also have the ability to change the trajectory of the story. After all, their fate is not fixed here.

"Don't worry, Little Red Riding Hood, if you meet that big bad wolf, watch me knock it down with two punches."

"Yeah, thank you big brother."

Little Red Riding Hood responded with a smile, as if she remembered something, she rummaged through her basket for a while and took out a piece of fresh bread.

"Big brother, do you want some bread?"

"That's the bread you left for your grandma, so I won't eat it."
