Standing on the hilltop he looks out and sees the cave in which the fairy had been looked away.
Why did I have to come this way? what are you leading me to? asked Hua Ying under his breath.
Just then the girl that gave him the apple appeared she then too looked at the cave and an eerily smile appeared on her face as she began to dance
A-Yan... A-Yan... I beg you... stop the dance cried her mother.
But A-Yan never listened she pushed her mother away and carried on dancing with the smile on her face.
Hua Ying can never see a mother in pain, so he did an incantation and A-Yan immediately stopped and fell to the ground.
That fairy growled Hua Ying as he walked down as the darkness gathered at his feet steadily making its way around Hua Ying body and just a little away from Mo Xuanyu and little apple. Mo Xuanyu lowered himself on little apple.
Hua Ying saw this and closed his eyes to calm down, once calm he looked at Mo Xuanyu
I will never hurt you, no matter how angry and frightening I seem A-Yu, I will never hurt you said Hua Ying as he slowly made his was to Mo Xuanyu
I understand said Mo Xuanyu, I'm sorry he said
Don't be smiled Hua Ying, I know what I look like...
Mo Xuanyu jumped in his arms and hugged Hua Ying, I will get better, I promise said Mo Xuanyu
Hua Ying climbed on little apple and pulled the reins into the direction of the cave.
They came to the tombs of the forgotten, Hua Ying jumped down from little apple and went there, he went on his knees and bowed three times, honoring the ancestors; the ancestors he was once so proud of being a part of before the nightmare started.
Grant me the strength to rid you of the curse that has plagued you so you can finally be at peace, prayed Hua Ying
Mother who are those that are buried here asked Mo Xuanyu
A long time ago A-Yu this use to be my family, the Dafan Wens, grandmasters of healing, any clan could come, and they would heal them, in their eyes everyone was the same there was no difference smiled Hua Ying
Mo Xuanyu got off little apple awkwardly then he to kneed and kowtowed three times:
Thank you for raising my wonderful heavenly mother thank you for guiding her to me, help me keep her heart safe prayed Mo Xuanyu
Hua Ying was surprised but he smiled through his tears at this boy who would pray to the people that were known as enemies to help keep him safe.
Let's go A-Yu I have a demon to face said Hua Ying as Mo Xuanyu got up and got onto little apple once again.
Guided little apple to where the entrance of the cave was and leaving little apple there at the entrance Mo Xuanyu and Hua Ying walked in. The inside of the cave was spacious, similar to the size of an erjin temple, with the statue of the self-proclaimed goddess set in the center. At first sight, it did indeed look like a human, the maiden's waist could even be considered lithe and graceful. However, after taking a closer look at it, it would seem rougher. Then again, a naturally formed statue being so like an actual human was enough to make most people gasp in awe.
Mother is she really...
No said Hua Ying, there are many stories around this one, but the truth is she held something dark within her heart when she was merely a stone and that changed her into what you see today, people started praying to her and worshiping her and bought her to life. I had self-proclaimed the most growled Hua Ying
