No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to Wutong College, next to the old playground
Two days after Mr. Jiang from the Forestry Bureau arrived, several groups of people came to the middle school one after another in the past two days. They all seemed to come for the sycamore tree in the old playground. Every time someone comes, the principal always accompanies them to the old playground, and the two sides seem to be discussing something.
In the early morning, under the summer sunshine, the sycamore tree in the old playground looked a little weaker.
Its top is missing a ring, and there are a few dry and yellow spots scattered across it.
Qingye, who had not had enough sleep yesterday, rubbed his sore eyes and looked out the window with squinted eyes.
"Hey, it's snowing, where do you think this sycamore will be moved?" Qingye turned around and asked his deskmate who was lying on the table with his eyes closed and dozing off. Her tone was gentle, but Xue Xue, who was at the same table, could tell from her plain tone that Aoba was looking forward to her answer.
Xia Xue didn¡¯t know what Li Qingye was expecting. She didn¡¯t think these flowers and plants had any value worthy of special attention.
She moved her cheek against the table angrily, and faced her deskmate with a somewhat impatient tone: "Transfer? Why do you want to transfer? No way. If you really want to transfer, where can you transfer to? In the middle of Fenghua City There¡¯s no plant center.¡±
"What? You said this sycamore tree will not be transferred?" Qingye frowned, seeming a little confused. She continued to ask: "Didn't you hear what the expert said last time? They said they would move this tree. Replace the sycamore tree with reads;.¡±
"That's right, so it won't be transferred." The deskmate showed an indifferent expression, pointed at the sycamore tree in the old playground and said: " Qingye, don't you think it would be more cost-effective to just cut it down?"
"Chop, chop off!"
Qingye was stunned: "Then he will die?"
"Yes, it is dead They said that all the experts they could find in Fenghua City were called. These experts all said that the vitality of this tree has reached the end and cannot be saved. Transporting it to other places will be in vain. It cannot be saved. It's alive. If it's broken, just replace it with a new one, and even trying to save it is just a thankless task."
"Butit is the symbol of Wutong College."
"You said this is the symbol of Wutong College Hum, it would be nice to just change it to the same sycamore tree. The symbol of Wutong College is the sycamore tree, it's okay Qingye, do you want to go to the Electronic City in the new district this afternoon? , I heard that many new products are coming." The deskmate waved his hand and decisively changed the topic.
"No."
Qingye lying on the table looked very lethargic.
If you cut it off you won't be able to survive?
Just died?
die!
Will you die like this?
Death is always a terrible thing. [Please go here to read the latest chapter of this book]
So easily, in just a few words, this sycamore tree, this symbol of the sycamore college, was marked for death.
¡¡
At noon, Qingye came to the tree alone. This time he did not water it, but simply looked at it.
Touching the hard bark, she murmured to herself:
"A few days ago, I escaped from death. Can you come back to life this time?"
"I'm looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to your shade covering the playground again; I'm looking forward to it, and I'm looking forward to your dead leaves being able to glow with new spring. I'm looking forward to it, and I'm looking forward to you standing here forever Really, I'm looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to taking the most beautiful graduation photos under your shade Please stay strong and live!"
"Please live strong, because life is always happier than death."
¡The bell rang and Aoba returned to the classroom.
She had never seen the elf on the tree sitting on her shoulder, caressing her cheek affectionately.
¡ª¡ªUnder the sun, the illusory tree spirit that looks like a little girl is sitting on a branch, with a look of expectation and sadness on her face.
¡¡¡¡
Since she didn¡¯t expect that she would be away from the Office for such a long time, Ling Ning didn¡¯t take much food with her when she left. After consuming all those special drinks, she had not eaten for several days.
She has investigated the black market in this city and knows where to buy medical bloodbut now she has no money.
In this way, how to solve his own food has become the top priority in front of Ning.
¡¡
¡°Ah, I¡¯m so full~~¡±
Patting her satisfied belly, Ning walked into the Jinghua high-end residential area.
"Even if I don't have Rin, these little things can't trouble me. I have full survival skills~~"
Not long ago, Ling Ning secretly sneaked into a nearby hospital.hospital. With her speed exceeding the limit of human eyesight, she borrowed several blood bags from the blood bank without anyone noticing. Don't worry, Ling Ning was very careful. With her speed exceeding the speed of sound several times, she would not leave any traces on any camera surveillance.
After a hearty meal, Ling Ning carefully cleaned her mouth. After that, she asked a kind little sister for an orange, and chewed it again and again to dispel the smell of blood. She didn't want to scare that kid Aoba.
"Qingye, what's wrong?"
When she came back, Qingye was already curled up on the sofa, looking very lethargic.
This situation has happened many times in the past few days, which makes Ning a little curious.
"No, it's nothing"
Seeing Ning coming back, Qingye stood up in a panic and tried to be as natural as possible.
"Yeah?"
Since Qingye didn¡¯t say anything, she didn¡¯t ask any more questions, she just paid attention secretly. Picking up a pillow, Ning lay directly on the sofa and watched a movie with her Well, this was already her fifth day here. Because he was afraid of seeing Rin and was penniless, this guy just stayed here with peace of mind
"Hmph, I am also this kid's savior. It doesn't matter if I stay a few more days, right?"
¡°That¡¯s what she thought, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. . .
¡¡¡¡
Friday, morning.
As usual, Aoba got ready to go to school after having breakfast.
"Walk slowly." Ling Ning, wearing only underwear, walked out of the bathroom and said with difficulty while still brushing her teeth.
"Well, please look after the house."
After Qingye left, Ling Ning began to speed up. Brushing her teeth, washing her face, changing clothesshe solved them all in just one minute. On the way to Wutong College, a woman wearing a cartoon T-shirt, holding a parasol and walking lightly walked slowly.
"What? Not allowed in?"
"Yes, outsiders are not allowed to enter during school hours!" The security guard looked serious, but because there was a young and beautiful woman in front of him, his tone was quite polite: "Are you looking for someone? Where is he? What class is it in each year?¡±
"There is nothing we can do." She really didn't know Aoba's class.
With a sigh, Ling Ning gave up her plan to enter through the front door and turned around to leave.
¡¡
"Sure enough, climbing over the wall is the best way to do it. No wonder the protagonists in anime have this kind of stunt."
Ling Ning said he was relaxed as he easily crossed the school wall in an uninhabited position.
Sniffling, she searched for a familiar smell in the crowd. ¡®Ah, although there are many things that remain the same after becoming a zombie, such as not being able to eat delicious food, hating the sun, and sometimes wanting to bite people, the benefits are also very good. Sharp five senses, powerful nerves, stronger. By the way, I heard from Rin that I can be even better! But forget it~~'
After spotting the target in the crowd, she did not go there. Walk directly to a high place and focus your vision and hearing around Aoba.
"Qingye, do you want to go shopping together at noon?"
"No, I have to be on duty at noon."
"You guy!!! Didn't I help you until the end last time?"
"Ah?"
¡¡
"Qingye, how do you solve this question?"
"This waythen again, substitute x, and then"
¡¡
"Xiao Na, look, is that sycamore tree a little greener?"
¡°You idiot Aoba, you didn¡¯t!¡±
¡¡
After observing the entire morning, Ling Ning didn¡¯t notice anything too special.
Well, if I really want to say something special, this kid often stares out the window in a daze.
"Sure enough, he is not a good boy, even though he behaves very much" Ning curled her lips, then lowered her head, because she realized that she was really not qualified to say anything to others and left without saying a word, leaving a blank face. A note of moral integrity.
If I were Rin, I would be angry too!
The sunlight on the roof was really strong, making her feel uncomfortable all over. Even if there is an umbrella, it cannot block everything.
Just when Ning was about to change to a shaded place, Qingye's actions attracted her attention.
It was lunch break at this time, general students had gone home one after another, and students living on campus also went to the cafeteria.
Qingye was not among them. She carried a kettle and walked towards the old playground.
"That tree?" Ling Ning said to herself.
"I heard that I will replace you the day after tomorrow. This may be my last?Watered for you. "
"Does reincarnation disappear completely when you die? Does reincarnation in myths and legends really exist? I really hope this is true. In this case, you don't disappear completely. If there is an afterlife, just be an animal or a human. In the end, At least you can run away when you are in danger"
¡¡
Looking as far as the eye could see, Ning saw green leaves watering the sycamore trees. On her shoulder, a tree spirit emitting green light was sitting on her shoulder. It is very weak, and the aura of life that originally belonged to the sycamore tree has become so dim.
Ling Ning once read records about tree spirits in the books that Xiao Lin asked her to copy:
A century -old wood, the moon is full of moon, can be born in the elves. In ten years, one inch of aura, white color, and vitality. A hundred years old, the aura is one foot long, the color is green, and it represents vitality. For thousands of years, the aura has been shining brightly, like a emerald star. For ten thousand years, the tree is not a tree, it can be said to be the god of green wood.
"Goodbye." The tree spirit whispered in Qingye's ear.
These days, she has learned a lot from the exchanges between those people. Her life has come to an end. Even if she wants to work hard to live, she has no chance The tree spirit is the essence of the tree. Under the sun and the moon, Pregnancy, forming consciousness while listening to the sounds of all things In essence, their existence is closer to the spiritual level, like the human soul. If it dies, the soul will have no place to live, and it will come and go from nature.
"I'm so unwilling. I've never felt the vastness of the sea, I've never felt the height of the mountains, I've never walked out of this school to see the world I I'm so unwilling" Leaving Qingye's shoulders, that The tree spirit leaned against the tree trunk and murmured to himself: "Andthe home that gave birth to me."
Ling Ning shifted her keen eyes to the top of the sycamore tree. From her angle, she could see the mottled top of the tree, layers of withered yellow leaves, all lifeless. Extending his gaze deeper, Ning discovered something.
¡°If that¡¯s the case, maybe I can make you laugh.¡±
