Except for the colorful stone road, the grass on the side of the road looks very lovely tender green, neatly trimmed and beautiful, like artificially paved turf.
only¡¡
Yu Miao gently brushed away the grass.
Below the grass is the blackened land, which is still moist to the touch, like the moist soil after the rain, nurturing these crisp grasses.
After digging in again, I found that other things were mixed in the black soil.
Those are some fine crumbs that don't look too conspicuous.
At least not squatting in front of you like this, and deliberately checking under the grass roots, even if you walk around the roadside a few times, it will be difficult to find this trace.
Yu Miao twisted the crumbs and lightly rubbed them with her fingertips. The thing was easily ground into a fine powder and fell back to the ground.
After those fine crumbs were gone, there was still a wisp of milky fragrance on her fingertips, which smelled very familiar.
Isn't it exactly the same as the aroma of butter, bread and biscuits in the candy house? She had smelled it through the door when she had just come out of the house.
This is the dried bread crumbs?
This discovery lifted Yu Miao's spirits, and quickly checked all the land within the range of activities.
Sure enough, the bread crumbs discovered just now are not the only ones, they can also be seen among other grasses on the roadside.
In addition to the light yellow bread crumbs, there are some round and smooth small stones scattered around.
Stones, bread, it was really hard for her not to think of the plot that Hansen used to mark in the story.
It's just that it was originally a prop that he secretly carried his father and stepmother behind his back and scattered on the road to help himself and his sister go home.
It was also because the crumbs were eaten by birds that the two children lost their way home and found the candy house in the jungle. They were almost eaten by the witch.
Of course, in the end, the younger sister Gretel killed the witch. The brothers and sisters ransacked the witch's house, returned home with jewels and gold coins, and lived a happy life with their father.
Logically speaking, neither stones nor bread crumbs should appear here.
The former should refer to the home of the siblings, and has nothing to do with the candy house.
The latter was eaten up by the birds, otherwise there would be no story of siblings getting lost, so how could they appear together with stones?
Besides, Yu Miao thought of another doubtful point.
The stepmother in the story wanted to throw the Hansen brothers and sisters away because she was worried that she would starve to death.
Their father also acquiesced in this decision because he could not find food and could not refute his stepmother's suggestion.
Then the question arises, when the lack of food is such that the whole family will starve to death, and even lose their children, how can there be so many sweet breads, so that the brother Hansen, who is not favored by his stepmother, sneaks out and tears them into bread What about throwing crumbs on the road to mark it?
If you really want bread, the two children will be too hungry to eat it if the adults don't say it.
unless¡¡
There is no shortage of this kind of food at the place where they got the bread, at least enough for the brothers and sisters to fill their stomachs, and they can take the extra bread to make road signs.
And since the road sign appeared outside the candy house, the place it pointed to was naturally not a home, but a magical candy house.
Where would one be able to get food, or even be so luxurious as to leave it to feed the birds?
The first answer Yu Miao could think of was the candy house! (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
