Volume 8 Knowledge Rental Notes after the Snow

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The snow stopped, and Xiaojing looked out the window in concentration, with a faint smile on her face that she couldn't hide.

    This winter has experienced severe cold, heavy snow, and winter thunderstorms, but it has finally cleared up in the past few days.

    After a while, Xiaojing finally came to her senses, took out the damp quilt from the house, and put it in the yard to dry.  It would be a pity not to dry the quilt in such a nice weather. If there is another snowfall, it would be uncomfortable to sleep on a damp quilt.

    After hanging up the quilt to dry, Xiaojing walked into the room. After cleaning the room for a while, she started to take out her textbook and read.

    Although my grades are not bad, it is always better to work harder. After all, I will be in the third grade of junior high school starting next semester.  If I don't do well in the high school entrance examination, my sister will definitely be disappointed.

    With this in mind, she took out a folder from the schoolbag on the bedside, which contained a thick stack of papers.

    After looking through her schoolbag and finding a few exercise papers from the textbooks of various subjects, Xiaojing tapped her pen in distress.

    ¡°As expected, the time spent on vacation is directly proportional to the number of practice papers¡±

    Although she can¡¯t compare to a monster like Rin, Xiaojing¡¯s grades have always been among the top in the class.  These exercises are not too difficult for her, but there are too many!

    After looking at the small mountain of exercises, Xiaojing decisively put it back in her schoolbag.

    " Was it burned in a fire, or was it dropped?" She whispered in her mouth, and she huddled into the bed as if nothing had happened: "Sure enough, the excuse of being burned in a fire doesn't work"

    ¡­¡­

    ?????????????????????? For some reason, the business of the small temple has been steady in recent times, which makes her who is used to poverty extremely happy.

    She was nestled in the quilt, only stretching out her hands, one stroke at a time, quickly swiping in the cold air, thick and uneven lines, but with a hint of metaphor were outlined.  Since this was something she had been doing since she was a child, she seemed to be extremely skillful and had finished a dozen or so drawings in just a few minutes.

    Although I am not interested in those excessively numerous exercise papers, these amulets are different!

    While Xiao Jing was concentrating on the talisman in her hand, Yu Qing, the nominal supreme owner of the temple, pushed the door in and looked around her curiously. After finding that Xiao Jing ignored her, she got under the quilt.  , nestled in Xiaojing's arms and asked softly: "Xiaojing, what is this, it looks so strange?"

    "Huh? Isn't this an amulet?" When she found Yuqing crawling into her nest and in her arms, Xiaojing hugged the little body tenderly: "Hey, didn't Yuqing say that she is a god? The talisman paper is  Don¡¯t gods know how to grow things? Haha, my drawing is too complicated, how about I draw something simpler?¡±

    Although after Yuqing came, the family expenses were inevitably higher due to the addition of one more person, and the relationship between herself and her sister became more inconvenient, but Xiaojing did not hate this sister who picked it up.  Little girl of course, there is no way to talk about liking her.

    To her now, this little girl is just someone brought home by her elder sister.

    Because she is my sister¡¯s guest, I should take good care of her, that¡¯s all.

    "Amulet?" There was some confusion on Yuqing's tender and red cheeks. She blinked and looked at Xiaojing in confusion: "I remember that the amulets in the past were not like this, and shouldn't all the talismans be used?  Did you use cinnabar yellow paper to draw it?"

    Hearing Yuqing¡¯s words, Xiaojing immediately became serious. Xiaojing deeply realized that she must correct Yuqing¡¯s unhealthy ideas.  Cinnabar is much more expensive than red ink She straightened her face, stretched out her hand to straighten Yuqing's little face and said solemnly: "Yuqing, you must remember what sister Jing said below!"

    After seeing Yuqing nod, Xiaojing began to educate: "Now is not the ancient times. There are very few monsters and ghosts. By the way, except for you, a little fairy, I have never seen any gods and monsters at all, so I protect myself."  There is no use in protecting them, and it only gives those people some comfort."

    Looking at the pair in front of me, the most critical reason came out: "That, andand cinnabar is more expensive, and red ink is cheaper, this is very important!"

    ¡°Oh~~¡± After hearing Xiaojing¡¯s explanation, Yuqing looked stunned.

    Xiaojing continued to make amulets, but Yuqing stayed for a while and felt bored and left.

    ¡ª¡ªYuqing is a god, that¡¯s how her sister introduced her when she brought her home.

    "Okay, let's just treat it like this~" Looking at the girl jumping away, Xiaojing couldn't connect the image of the beautiful and intelligent fairy in her mind at all.  But since it was my sister who said it, let¡¯s just take it as her~ Anyway, this little thing eats very little, doesn¡¯t make any noise, and is easy to raise.

     ?¡­

    Outside the window, the winter snow has stopped for a few days. The snow on the pine trees in the courtyard is melting quietly under the sunlight. From time to time, a water droplet falls along the treetops, shining with rainbow-colored spots in the sunlight.

    Yuyu was drinking tea while looking at the computer she bought recently because she made a lot of money.

    There were so many people who came to sell amulets or fulfill their wishes in the past few days. In just one week, this small temple has made as much money as it has paid in previous years Haha, this is so happy!

    While Yuyu was secretly intoxicated, her fairy master had quietly walked in.

    "Yuyu, what is this, why are people in this small box?? Spells? Mirror shadow, sound transmission, and soul arresting techniques seem to be mixed with several kinds of spells It's strange, I actually feel  No breath of magic?? It seems that the immortal who made this magic weapon is quite talented!" She touched the computer screen and said enviously

    Then, she frowned: "Strange, what are the particles gathered around this magic weapon used for?"

    She stretched out her hand and flicked the particles. On the computer where Yuyu was playing, the picture on the screen shook: "I haven't seen these particles before. By the way, I have already seen some of them when they flashed."

    "Electromagnetic waves? Electrons? Photons?" After listening to Yuqing's words, he looked at the screen that returned to normal and fell silent.  Haha, who knows these things? Hun Dan!  !  !  !

    "Snapped"

    Taking a deep breath, Yuyu closed the computer.

    I looked out the window, the snow had melted slightly, and it was shining brightly in the sun. "Ah, I haven't been out for a long time. It's so beautiful outside."  ¡¯

    "Also, Yuyu, didn't you say there are no immortals in this world? Why do you have this kind of immortal weapon?"

    ¡°¡­¡±

    "Yuyu, are you lying to me? This is wrong. I am the god you worship. You can't lie to me~" Seeing Yuyu open her mouth and say nothing, Yuqing became a little angry.

    ¡®Damn it!  I am your master!  Don't ignore me!  !  !  ¡¯

    ¡°¡­¡±

    "Yuyu, don't ignore me, you said you would take care of me." Tears

    "" Yuyu finally understood how terrifying a little god with poor knowledge can be.

    In order not to explain too complicatedly, she rolled her eyes and simply rolled her eyes.

    "Hey, Yuyu, don't faint!"

    Amid Yuqing¡¯s anxious shouting, Yuyu jumped up, picked up a coat and ran out the door: ¡°I¡¯m going to catch rabbits, don¡¯t come over!¡±

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    It was almost noon, Xiaojing started cooking.

    "Sister, there is not enough rice"

    "Is lunch enough?"

    "It's barely enough for lunch, but there's definitely no rice for dinner!" Even if Yuqing eats less, the rate of rice consumption still increases, which leads to a discrepancy between the time to buy rice this time and Xiaojing's estimated time.

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay, I¡¯ll buy it after lunch.¡±

    Because I have made a lot of money recently, Yuyu is particularly confident in speaking!

    "I'm here to help too!" Yuqing hurriedly ran out: "Yuyu, I'll go out for a while and I'll be back soon."

    With that said, she rushed out of the mountain gate and ran down the snow-covered stone steps.

    "Sister, the snow is almost melting now and the ground is so slippery. Is it okay for her to go out like this?"

    "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, Yuqing is still a god no matter what, don't worry"

    "Sister, it's impossible for gods to be" She originally wanted to say 'gods don't exist', but when Xiaojing saw her sister's look of 'you don't believe me', she immediately changed her mind: "Okay, okay, but even if  He is a god, but he is also a child! If he goes out like this and encounters a wild boar or something"

    "Don't worry, it's okay" He waved his hands nonchalantly, looking at the little rice left in the rice bag, and said, "It seems that these are still not enough. I have to go to work now. When I come back in the evening  I¡¯ll buy it back by the way.¡±

    After saying that, she walked out of the small temple carrying the bicycle.

    Both of them left, and Xiaojing returned to the house alone. For some reason, she felt a little uneasy when she thought of Yuqing running out alone.  Sister, that's easy to say In order to divert her attention, Xiaojing went to the kitchen and boiled a small pot of boiling water.

    Holding the hot tea she had just made, she sat on the bed by the window and looked out the window in trance.

    The warm tea cup in her hand was filled with pleasant heat, but her mood at the moment was not warm.?

    Fifteen minutes later, Xiaojing put down her tea cup.

    "Why haven't you come back yet?"

    Thirty minutes later, Xiaojing walked out of the room worriedly.

    "This kid doesn't know how to play anymore."

    Forty minutes later, Xiaojing had arrived at the snow-covered stone steps.  .

    "Is nothing going to happen?"

    An hour later, she became increasingly anxious and couldn't wait any longer.

    "No, I have to go find her!"

    Xiaojing hurriedly put on her warmest clothes in the cannon fodder house and walked out of the house.

    ¡®Fairy?  Don't be ridiculous, in today's modern society, even if your family opens a temple, no one will take it seriously!  ¡¯ Although Xiaojing accommodated her sister and did not refute her face to face, in her heart, Yuqing was always just a little girl adopted by her sister.

    ¡°My sister is probably just afraid that I will oppose her adoption, so she comes up with such an unreliable excuse.  If that little girl was the god he worshiped, he wouldn't have any excuse to object Really, idiot!  As long as it's my sister's decision, I won't objectMy sister is such an idiot!  !  !  ¡¯

    "Yuqing, Yuqing come back quickly!"

    There is snow everywhere, and my footsteps have sunk more than ten centimeters, making it difficult to walk.

    ¡°Stop playing, let¡¯s go home!!¡±

    She shouted loudly into the forest, hoping that the girl could hear her.

    After a while, there was no response.

    She walked farther and farther, deeper and deeper, and inadvertently, she had reached the depths of the mountain forest.  All around are pine trees wrapped in thick white snow, and the white snow covers the former green.  There is one person in the deep mountains, it is deserted and extremely quiet. There are some insects crawling on the ground under the pattering of slightly melted snow.

    "Yuqing, Yuqing!! Did you hear that? I will be really angry if you don't come outYuqing, Yuqing!!" A piece of snow fell on the tree next to her, startling Xiaojing.  She looked around timidly, making sure there was nothing before walking deeper into the forest.

    At this point, the sunlight gradually dimmed, and the surrounding trees gradually became denser.

    There are spots of light in the forest, which are not very eye-catching.

    Except for the rustling sound of footsteps on the snow, the whole world was almost frozen in silence.

    Gradually, gradually, a chill came over Xiaojing's heart

    How long have you been gone, half an hour, or an hour?

    She didn¡¯t remember, but she was sure she had been gone for a long time.  When we arrived here, we were already deep in the forest. Even I, who had grown up in this forest, felt a little scared What about Yuqing?

    Are you scared? You must be scared!

    The surrounding forest wrapped in cold snow is not very friendly. This almost solid environment is frightening. The darker environment is more like the shadows hiding indescribable terror.  Such a young girl must have been so scared that she hid.

    "Yuqing, YuqingI am Sister Jing, if you hear anything, go this way!!!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    A little-known, unreachable place in the forest.

    A clear mountain spring emerged from two huge spiritual veins in the ground.  The spring water gathered around it to form a pool of more than one meter. The underground rocks were charred and smooth. A circle of short plants grew on the land around the pool. Bracken and most of them were edible wild vegetables.  On a section of dead tree farther away, a plump gray-white mushroom grew.

    The plants here were all planted by my grandfather a long time ago, but the ones that appear in front of me now have been reproduced for who knows how many years and generations.  The plants and fungi here have never increased or decreased at all.

    Under the influence of some strange force, it still maintains a constant number.

    ¡°This is the only place that hasn¡¯t changed at all.¡±

    Squatting down by the clear pool, Yuqing picked some bracken and picked the mushrooms growing on the dead wood next to it.  This pool of water is very hot, and plants can only grow beside the pool at most. They never send their roots into the pool water, but only absorb the water seeping from the earth.

    "Grandpa always said that the water here is very hot, but I have never experienced the same feeling as grandpa."

    She put her little hands covered with mud deep into the pool water. To her, the water here was only very mild, but to her, it was no different from ordinary river water.

    Looking at it with nostalgia, she turned and left,

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    Xiaojing knows that today may be the last time she sees the world.

    Although I miss this world so much,I can't bear to leave my sister who has been taking care of me since my parents left.  I told my sister before that when I grow up, I will make a lot of money, and I will no longer have to huddle under the quilt to starve and freeze.

    ¡°My sister will be angry if I leave so willfully before I can help my sister.¡±  ¡¯

    He took two steps back with difficulty until his whole body was leaning against the tree.  She slowly squatted down and pulled out a dead branch from the wet and cold snow. Xiaojing's eyes were condensed as never before, her pupils expanded, and a faint gray was looming in her pupils.

    ¡°Somehow, that scene from my childhood emerged from the depths of my heart

    It¡¯s been a long time, maybe seven or eight years.

    That happened when I was not in school.

    I remember that it was also a snowy winter. Although that winter was not as weird and cold as this year, it was the most unforgettable and unwilling winter for me and my sister.

    That year, my parents left one after another, and my sister refused to be adopted by her parents¡¯ former friends.

    With the support of his parents¡¯ former friends, he and his sister lived a difficult life.  I remember that in the first two months after my mother left, Aunt Xiao, Aunt Li and several other aunts took turns living here to take care of themselves and their sister. They did not leave until they were sure that my sister could take care of herself and me.

    The painful and difficult autumn has finally passed. In this sad autumn, my sister learned to cook, learn to wash, learned to coax herself to sleep, learned sacrificial rituals that she didn¡¯t like before and learned a lot.

    "But, after all, my sister is not a fairy. She can't do magic and can't make rice.

    It has been snowing for three days, and the rice at home was finished yesterday.  The rice and food that Uncle Zhang sent some time ago should be eaten by himself for a while, but one night, he let himself scatter the rice. In just one night, most of the rice was eaten by mice.  Think about it, why didn't you pick it up?

    By the way, at that time, I always thought that these things were just doing. Only when tomorrow, my sister can do anything.  This is what I was thinking at the time.  What a sad thought!

    We finished eating the rice. The snow was too heavy and we couldn¡¯t go out. We were hungry and cold.

    My sister could only hug herself and hide in the thick quilt.

    ¡­¡­

    "If that hasn't happened yet, are you going to eat me?"

    Looking at the dark, thin big wild boar in front of her, with hungry green eyes glowing, Xiaojing gritted her teeth and glared at it.

    Compared to Xiaojing¡¯s anger, the wild boar in front of her, which had just woken up from hibernation, was obviously only happy.  It was a blessing to be able to find such a huge meal at such a time.  Because he was hungry and had been deceived by the strong sunshine in the past few days when he woke up, the snow-covered pine forest in front of him was obviously not the spring he was looking forward to.

    In this kind of weather, all the food that can be found is worth hunting, whether it is small insects crawling under the snow, or grass roots full of accumulation in the soil Or, this person in front of you!

    The wild boar¡¯s hooves kicked on the snow, and its sharp tusks aimed at the prey.

    After narrowly avoiding the wild boar¡¯s sharp fangs with a roll, Xiaojing stabbed the wild boar with the dead branch in her hand.  The severe pain made the wild boar howl miserably, and the howl became even more ferocious.  He arched his body and ran towards her.

    The dead branches have long since rotted after a winter, and will break into two pieces with just a little force.

    He rolled around on the snow several times in embarrassment, and finally escaped the wild boar¡¯s tusks.  But the weapon of resistance has been broken. Xiaojing's face is angry but mixed with some strange gray, and the pupils in her eyes are dilating more and more.  She clenched her fists tightly, her fingers sinking deeply into her flesh, with red marks and a few drops of blood seeping out.

    "Stay back!"

    A clear voice came from the depths of the forest, and the clear voice echoed in the forest.

    "Yuqing?!" Xiaojing, who was surprised and delighted, looked in the direction of the voice and saw a small figure walking out of the shadows. Slowly, the darkness of the deep forest seemed to appear under the small figure.  A flash of light.

    "Stand back."

    After repeating it, the hungry wild boar actually left with reluctant eyes.

    "God?" Xiao Jing climbed up from the snow in embarrassment and looked at her doubtfully.

    "Fairy." Yuqing nodded and pointed at himself.

    ****

    "Sister, I'm cold."

    When, when?

    I just felt that I had whispered like this a long time ago, beside that familiar person.

    "Don't be afraid, sister will go find another quilt."In the hazy state, huddled in a ball, I heard a familiar voice.

    "Sister, I'm thirsty and want to drink water."

    "Well, sister will help you get some water. Don't get out of bed. It's cold outside."

    The snow outside the window was falling heavily, and through the crack in the door, the howling wind took away the temperature of the room.

    After adding a quilt and drinking water, the cool body next to me became even warmer.

    ¡°¡­It¡¯s so warm.¡±

    The warm man held her tightly and slept soundly.

    ps: The mountain temple is over, but the story is not over yet.

    After such a long time, another volume has finally come to an end. Nan Hua has a lot to say, but doesn¡¯t know how to say it, so I won¡¯t say it anymore.  .  .  .  .  Thank you for still watching.
