“你----你是谁?!”悠悠吓得浑身一颤,站都来不及站起来,用屁股擦着草地往后移动,尽可能地和眼前的“怪物”保持一定的距离,当然,这个距离越远越好。然而随着身体的移动,悠悠反而看清了眼前的“怪物”,他竟然是一只乌龟?!
一只像小山丘一样高的巨型乌龟!
“人类小孩儿,你别害怕,我是不会伤害你的。”那只大乌龟慢慢说着,忽然轻轻念了一声咒语,身体瞬间缩小了数倍,变成了一只跟悠悠一样高的乌龟,慢慢说道,“我是妖界的守护灵妖,千百年来,我常看到灵妖去人界修炼,却极少看到人类来到这里,你能告诉我,你是怎么从人界来到这里的吗?”
“你说----这是妖界?!”悠悠惊奇地问道。悠悠虽然很害怕带毛的小动物,但是对于没有毛发的爬行类的动物却可以忍受。他看到眼前的乌龟并没有攻击自己的意思,于是把自己的遭遇跟老龟妖说了一遍,并且递上老树精的拐杖,祈求老龟妖的帮助。
“关于创世之神突然带走人界的所有的人的这件事,我很抱歉。”老龟妖慢慢说道,“妖界跟人界是近邻,我很愿意帮助你们。可是妖界和人界不同,灵妖的数量极少,而且都出去修行了,现在这里只剩下了几个小灵妖,他们从来都没有出去修行过,所以也不知道他们身上特有的法力到底是什么。这样的话,你还需要他们的帮助吗?”
悠悠低头考虑了一下,觉得身边有个帮手总比没有强,更何况灵妖们都是有法力的,虽然不知道这些小灵妖的法力如何,但是有法力总比没有强。于是他坚决地点了点头,说道,“需要,我很需要他们的帮助。如果他们可以帮助我见到创世之神的话,我会很感激的!”
“好吧。”老龟妖点了点头,慢慢说道,“也许这次外出,对那些从来都没有到过外界的小灵妖们来说,是一次很好的修行机会。”他俯下了身子,对悠悠继续说道,“我走路比较快,怕你跟不上。你坐到我的壳上吧,我带你去找小灵妖。”
据悠悠所知,乌龟可能是世界上走路最慢的动物之一了,尽管悠悠觉得老龟妖说自己走路快很有意思,他还是很有礼貌地点了点头,坐到了老龟妖的壳上。
“抓稳了。”老龟妖慢慢说道。
就在悠悠抓好龟壳的一瞬间,他突然有种飞起来的感觉,眼前景色瞬间变换,耳畔风声呼啸。悠悠睁开眼睛,他惊讶地发现才几分钟的时间,他已经跟着老龟妖来到了旷野的尽头,连绵山脉的顶端----绿葱葱的竹林,林间流着涓涓溪水。似乎在山的那头,溪水的那边,隐隐地传来阵阵欢笑打闹声。
难道那些就是小妖们吗?
悠悠暗自琢磨着,不禁四处张望,但是什么都看不到。
老龟妖从地上捡起一片竹叶,然后对着竹叶轻轻吹了口气,那片绿色的竹叶慢慢随风飘起,越变越大,立在地上,经脉徐徐开启,变成一道绿光闪闪的大门。
“来吧,咱们进去吧。”老龟妖一边说着,一边慢慢往里走。
悠悠跟着老龟妖刚踏进竹叶大门,就发现眼前的风景又变了样---眼前一片蔚蓝,身边浮云流动,他好像站在天上?!
悠悠小心翼翼地往下看了一眼,顿时吓得两腿发软。此时此刻,他跟老龟妖正站在一片巨大的绿色竹叶上,摇摇晃晃,飘在空中!

“Who, who are you??!”Yoyo saw a massive monster. He was too frightened to stand up and walk. Since he couldn’t run, he used his bottom to shuffle back. He thought that the more that he shuffled back, the better. After Yoyo shuffled further away, he could see the so called monster, but after he looked more clearly, he noticed that it was a immense turtle??!
It was a fudging big turtle, as massive as a mountain.
“Human kid, don’t be scared, I won’t hurt you “the turtle said. Then he shrank and shrank and shrank until he was the same height as Yoyo, and said,“I am part of the demon world, I usually see lots of demons going to the human world, however, I have hardly ever seen anyone from the human world coming to the demon world.” The tortoise asked Yoyo,“How could you arrive in the demon world?”
“You say you are from the demon world?!”Yoyo was really amazed. Yoyo was always afraid of furry animals, however, when it comes to reptiles, he is stronger. Yoyo stopped hesitating and started having better looks at the creature. He thought for a moment about the animal, it seemed nice enough and it wasn’t mean or a maniac. Yoyo spoke to the turtle about what had happened and gave the walking stick for evidence.
“I feel sorry that Exodus took everybody from the human world to the Heavenly World.” The old turtle demon said slowly,“demon world and the human world are neighbors. I would be happy to help you with your long journey ahead of you. The demons’ population is extremely low. Every demon must train to their full sprout to go outside worlds. Now the demon world has only a few small demons left. The small demons have never gone outside before so they don’t have a full understanding of the outside worlds and their magical powers. We’ve never tested them. In this case, do you still seek help from the small demons.”
Yoyo looked at the floor and thought carefully about what answer he would proceed with. He decided that having company was better than going alone. He also thought that the small demons have magic powers and he believed that having powers even undiscovered ones is better than none. Yoyo nodded and said,“Yes I do seek help from the small demons. As long as they help me find Exodus, I will appreciate it.”
“As your wish.” The old turtle demon nodded his head and said,“This might be a good opportunity for the small demons to go the other worlds.” The old turtle demon lowered his head and said,“Here, hop on my back and I can take you to meet the small demons.”
Yoyo thought that the turtle was one of the world’s slowest animals. He felt hearing the old turtle demon who was really proud of his fast speed was really interesting. However, Yoyo still climbed on the old turtle demon’s back politely.
“Hold on tight.” The old turtle demon slowly replied.
When Yoyo grabbed on, they went at the speed of light and went zooming through the grassland. Every time when Yoyo blinked, the view changed. It was like going through many portals. Yoyo could also feel the strong wind blasting through his ears. A short while later, Yoyo opened his eyes and noticed that he had gone through the whole grassland and they had reached the peak of a mountain. At the top of the mountain, he could see a lot of lush green bamboos sticking in the mountains dirt and soil. Under the bamboos, there was a crystal clear lake teeming with fish. Yoyo could merely hear the sound of laughter, the sound of laughter sounds a mile and a half away.
“Was that sound of laughter from small demons?” Thought Yoyo.
He started looking all around the places trying to find what was making the noise that he heard. But he saw nothing.
The old turtle demon carefully picked leaf from the pile of bamboos and he gently blew it. As the bamboo leaf floated higher in the sky, it started to grow bigger and bigger until the leaf was not a leaf. It was a shining green door.
“Come on, follow me. We shall now go inside” said the old turtle demon while heading into the Shiny green door.
Yoyo followed the old turtle demon into the door made of the bamboo leaf. He noticed that the scenery has changed again. This time, he could see a large puffy cloud floating his way.“Could I really be in the sky?” thought Yoyo.
Yoyo carefully looked down from the shaking bamboo leaf. When he did, he received a massive heart attack!! His legs were frozen with fear. He could see himself standing in mid air! However, Yoyo still bravely continued to follow the old turtle demon.
