[Douluo Dalu] The spirit fox is reborn

The sky is clear blue, the clouds are unstained, the sun is bright, and spring is getting warmer. Under the blue sky, the mountains are towering, steep and straight. Under the rolling mountains, there is a village called Wangguang Village. As its name suggests, the village is vast, but not many people live there. There are only a few earthen houses scattered far apart.

Because there are few people in the village, most of the fields are abandoned and overgrown with weeds. A little boy in ragged clothes was running on the field ridge. The boy was thin, disheveled, and had a pair of clear eyes on his dirty face. The boy was carrying a broken bamboo basket on his back. The bamboo basket contained freshly picked herbs and some fruits. The weight on his back made the boy's thin body bend slightly, but his steps were never affected by the pressure on his shoulders. Stopped due to excessive weight. The green grass in the field reached the boy's ankles, a pair of straw sandals appeared and disappeared, and the skinny calves were slightly red from the scraping of humus.

Soon after, the boy's figure entered a low and dilapidated earthen house. The house was dark and damp, and the furniture was simple. The boy put down the bamboo basket behind his back and hurried into the back room and came to an old wooden bed. There was a little girl lying on the bed, her eyes were closed, her cheeks were slightly red, and there was a wet wipe on her forehead, as if she had been caught by the wind and cold.

The boy felt the temperature on her forehead with the back of his hand. The hot temperature made him worried. Put the wet wipes in the water, wring them out and apply them on the girl. Then he left the house, picked up the freshly picked herbs and got busy in the kitchen.

After a long time, the boy came into the room with a bowl of steaming medicine, carefully helped the sleeping girl on the bed, let her lean on the quilt, and then brought the boiled medicine to the girl's lips. The girl swallowed a few mouthfuls, then lay down and continued to sleep. The boy didn't go away, he just sat aside and watched quietly.

The two siblings, whose parents died young and their family was destitute, couldn't afford a doctor when they got sick, so they could only pick some herbs and decoct them and take them on their own. Whether they got better or not depended on God's will.

The boy waited for a long time, but he didn't see the girl's fever subsided. Seeing that the girl was about to die, the boy felt sad and couldn't help but shed a tear.

The boy remembered that three years ago, he stayed by his mother's side like this, crying extremely sadly. His mother told him that as a man, he should not cry easily, but should dare to face it and be as brave and fearless as his father.

The boy is extremely vague about his father, and his mother doesn't often mention him, but the boy knows that his mother loves his father very much. Whenever a crescent moon hangs in the sky, his mother will cry alone in the middle of the night.

Since his mother left, the boy rarely cried. Even if he suffered great injustice, he would hide it in his heart. Because he knows that no one can rely on him in the future. He not only has to take care of himself, but also takes care of his sister, but now his sister...

The boy looked sadly at a peach tree outside the window and sang a nursery rhyme left by his mother.

There are two trees on the top of the mountain, one plum and one peach.

The flowers on the plum trees are white, and the peach trees are full of fruits.

If the two can become one, the world will surely be filled with peaches and plums.

……

I don't know how long it took, but the girl woke up. Her thin arms supported the old bed board and she sat up. Her eyes glanced around, everything seemed so familiar.

This is... my childhood home? How come I'm here? Haven't I already...

The girl was so surprised that she was about to get out of bed to find out what was going on. She saw a little boy lying on the edge of the bed, his eyes closed tightly, as if he was sleeping soundly.

The girl slowly stretched out her hand to move the boy's messy black hair to see his true appearance. The girl was even more shocked when she stretched out her delicate little hand.

She quickly got up from the bed and saw a basin of water on the old table. The girl walked towards the table nervously.

I saw a small head sticking out of the wooden basin filled with clear water, with a childish face and a skinny face. The girl was immediately stunned and took a few steps back.

What exactly is going on? Am I dreaming?

After a moment of pause, the girl approached the basin of clear water again. The reflection in the water was exactly the same as when she was a child, except that there was a small black mole under the corner of her left eye. The girl looked at her reflection in the water in disbelief, and pinched her cheek hard with her delicate hands. The pain in her flesh was so real.

The boy heard the noise and woke up. Seeing the girl standing safely at the table, she was filled with joy.

"Nana, you're awake! It's great that you're okay!"

The girl recognized the boy in front of her as her brother Xie Yue. She remembered that she was already an adult, and her brother had already done it in order to protect her... Why are her brother and herself still the same as they were when they were children? Isn't this really a dream? The girl couldn't find the answer for a while.

Seeing that she was a little dull, the boy became slightly worried. He reached out and touched the girl's forehead, making sure that it was not hot before putting it down.

"Nana, do you still feel uncomfortable somewhere?"

The girl recovered from her memories and saw the brother she had missed for a long time standing in front of her. Seeing that he was worried about her again, her eyes became moist without knowing it. The girl threw herself into her brother's arms and hugged him tightly.

Her brother once lost his life to protect her, which made the girl feel guilty. Since her brother left, the girl has been missing him, and avenging her brother has become her obsession. Unfortunately, she died at the hands of her enemies.

Now that her brother was right in front of her, and his embrace was still so warm, the girl began to feel a little confused. Everything here was so real, so real that she wondered if the memories in her mind were illusions, or if she was just having a nightmare. But if it was really a dream, why would the ending between her and her brother be so miserable? And why until I woke up, I still couldn't get rid of the sadness in my heart.

Seeing his sister crying, the boy became even more worried.

"Nana, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying so sadly?"

The girl didn't want her brother who loved her to worry about her, so she wiped away her tears and said softly: "Brother, I'm fine. I just had a very sad dream when I was asleep."

The boy didn't know what kind of dream could make his sister, who never knew what sadness was, so sad. He just reached out and patted her thin back, comforting: "Dreams are all fake. Nana doesn't have to be so sad." When his brother was collecting medicine in the morning I picked your favorite peaches for you. You have been sick for so many days and haven’t eaten, so you must be starving!"

The girl nodded, took the peach brought by her brother, brought it to her lips, and bit it lightly, her tears still flowing down uncontrollably.

The girl can't tell which world is reality and which is a dream. After being confused for a few days, she decided not to delve into it further and just wanted to cherish the time she had now and her brother who was alive in front of her.

Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in a flash.

On this day, Xieyue hurriedly ran home along the winding dirt road from the entrance of the village as if she had picked up a treasure. The girl was arranging the wild fruits and vegetables she had just picked at home. She saw her brother running over in a hurry, panting, and patted him on the back and said, "Brother, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Xie Yue took a breath and said, "Nana, I just heard that tomorrow a soul master from the Wuhun Palace will go to the next village to awaken Wuhun for six or seven-year-old children. Let's go tomorrow too!"

Becoming a soul master has always been Xie Yue's dream. After his mother left, the two of them lived in even more embarrassment. As an elder brother, he always hoped to protect his sister. If he could become a soul master, he could also improve the two of them. life status.

When the girl heard her brother's words, she felt a little uneasy. She didn't know whether the awakened martial spirit would be the same as what she remembered, and whether it would change their peaceful life.

For more than half a month, the girl discovered that except for her and her brother, who were still living a miserable life as she remembered, the other villagers in the village were completely different from what they remembered. She knew that her brother's dream was to become a soul master, and his expression at this moment was full of anticipation for tomorrow's awakening of the martial soul.

Seeing his sister's hesitation, the boy added: "Nana, let's go together tomorrow! Becoming a soul master, isn't it what you have been looking forward to? As long as one of us, brother and sister, can become a soul master, we won't have to do it every day in the future. Cold and hungry.”

Becoming a soul master was indeed a girl's dream. Ever since she woke up from a serious illness that day, her dream seemed to have changed. Although she wanted to become a soul master, now she wanted to protect her brother more and didn't want the nightmare in her memory to happen again.

The boy frowned when he saw her beautiful eyebrows and said nothing. What was he thinking? He persuaded: "Nana, you are now six years old, which is the best age to awaken your martial spirit. If you miss this time, I don't know how long you will have to wait."

The boy was not worried without reason. He was now nine years old and had been waiting for three years for the opportunity to awaken his martial spirit. His sister is his only relative and the person he cares about most. He doesn't want her to miss this opportunity.

The girl knew that her brother had been looking forward to this day. He did this to protect her. Although he hesitated, she nodded and said with a faint smile: "Brother, Nana will go with you tomorrow!"

Hearing this, Xie Yue finally felt relieved and smiled slightly.

Early the next morning, the unkempt boy washed the dirt off his face. The girl took a wooden comb and helped him straighten his messy black hair and tie it high. The boy also pulled up his sister's long hair at the temples. There were no hair accessories at home, so the boy found two red ropes and tied them in his sister's bun. Although they were still in rags, the brother and sister were much neater.

The spring sunshine is bright and warm, vegetation sprouts on both sides of the dirt road, flowers bloom, and a light fragrance permeates the countryside and fields. The boy picked a few favorite spring flowers for his sister, and the girl held them in her hands, smelling the faint fragrance, and smiled widely.

The two children arrived at their destination while laughing and playing.

There is a round and smooth stone placed at the entrance of this village. It is much taller than the two brothers and sisters. On the stone are engraved three large characters, Holy Soul Village.
