Plane Small Bookstore [System]

The girl was able to be rescued this time, thanks to the help of the tree people's friends. They hid her and concealed her smell. come out.

So he said sincerely to the tree man standing silently by the side: "Thank you for your help."

The rough bark twisted and trembled, and an old face emerged from the center of the tree. The treeman spoke a little faster, but it was still very slow compared to humans: "It's okay, you are... Eric's... friend .”

Eric was the name of the tree man before.

Le Jing smiled and looked at him curiously: "My name is Le Jing, can you tell me your name?"

"Corey," said the tree man, "I heard from Eric that you... came from a different world. If... if you're okay, can you come here... and talk to me about... your world?"

"Of course, I also have a lot of things I want to ask you for advice."

Sophia watched in horror as the lord was talking and laughing happily with the legendary evil tree spirit, and couldn't help taking a step back.

The footsteps immediately attracted Le Jing's attention, he stopped communicating, and smiled apologetically at Sophia: "Sorry, I forgot to tell you in advance, did I scare you?"

"He's not a strange person." The young man looked casual, as if it wasn't an evil tree spirit, but an ordinary elder. "This is Keli the tree man. He was the one who saved you just now." He said And to Corey, "She's Sophia."

The green eyes of the tree man then fell in love with Sophia, "Hello, Sophia." The tree man said friendly.

Seeing the strange old man's face emerging from the tree trunk, Sophia swallowed her saliva, glanced carefully at Le Jing, and finally summoned up her courage after seeing his encouraging gaze, "Hi, hello." She whispered, "Thank you You saved me."

The tree man stared at her for a moment, and Sophia resisted the urge to back away and met his gaze bravely.After a while, the tree man let out a hoarse laugh: "He's a good boy."

"Yes." Le Jing nodded with a smile: "He is a very gentle child."

Sophia stood there listening to their exchange, carefully peeking at Le Jing.

Those who can be with the dryad must not be ordinary humans.Maybe, he is the devil in the legendary forest?

Looking at the young man's tranquil face, she couldn't help but think, so the devil is so good-looking.

The story says that the devil wants to ask for human souls as a reward for saving people.But she still has to wait for her mother, and cannot give her soul to him.And she has no money, so how can she repay Mr. Devil?

She thought and thought, and after Mr. Devil took her to a luxurious and beautiful house and connected her to a tub of bath water for her to take a bath, she finally figured out what to do.

This made her heave a sigh of relief.

She stopped Mr. Devil, who was about to leave, and lifted her skirt indifferently, "I really don't know how to repay you." The girl's blue eyes shone brightly under the light, and her expression was innocent and ignorant. An angel, "Mom says I'm too young for men to like me. But I only have my own body, and I'll work hard, sir."

Le Jing was stunned.

Those white legs that are typical of Caucasians are covered with large and small blue bruises, some of which are still new!

He looked away, took a step back, and said sharply, "Pull down your skirt first!"

This was the first time he spoke to Sofia in such a terrible tone.Sophia's face turned pale immediately, she immediately put down her skirt, hugged her body reflexively and trembled: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was wrong, I'm sorry, don't hit me, sir..." At this moment, the pair of blue eyes filled with There was a layer of mist, but the tears did not fall for a long time.

She dared not even cry!

This recognition made Le Jing's anger even stronger.He took a deep breath, calmed his face, and said softly, "I didn't mean to blame you. To me, Sophia is like my sister. How could I be angry with my sister?"

After a brief reassurance, Sophia finally calmed down.Le Jing squatted down, stroked her soft red hair gently, and asked after deliberation: "Sophia, what's the matter with your leg injury? Did someone beat you?" Le Jing deliberately used a casual and relaxed tone Speak like it's no big deal.

Sure enough, Sophia also replied briskly: "It was my mother who hit me. Because I made my mother angry."

Although they met each other not long ago, Le Jing knew that Sophia was a well-behaved and sensible girl, and he didn't think Sophia could do anything so extreme that she needed to be beaten so hard.

"What did you do to make Mom angry?"

"Because my brother died, but I survived." Sophia lowered her eyes in frustration, "Mom is very sad, why didn't I die."

After a short period of frustration, the girl raised her innocent smile again: "But most of the time, my mother still loves me very much. She is willing to give me food, which is already very good. Tom's sisters are all sunk by Aunt Tina. The pond is drowned." At the end, she nodded and concluded with certainty, "So my mother still loves me very much."

What is poverty?

Poverty is not rags and food, but lack of love.

Love is such a delicate thing. Only when there is no need to worry about food and clothing can it have a chance to survive and grow.

Le Jing suddenly remembered a documentary called "Humanity" that he had watched before.The film begins with the monologue of a black death row inmate.

He lived in a slum since he was a child, living with his stepfather and mother.The stepfather often beat him and told him that he beat him because he loved him, "It hurts my heart when it hits you."

So he believed from an early age that love is hurt.

Then he grew up, he robbed, he murdered, he committed a lot of crimes because his stepfather told him, "I hit you because I love you." He hurt everyone he loved, and he measured it the depth of his love.

He will only use violence to face this world that is not gentle to him.

However, he was forgiven by the victim's family.

He said: "Anyway, she should hate me, but she didn't." At this point, the black man with a blank expression burst into tears for the first time.

The world kisses me bitterly and asks me to sing in return.Those who can do this must be great men.In the world, most of them are mediocre ordinary people.How can someone who has never been treated with tenderness by the world treat the world with tenderness?

A child is a mirror, how you treat him will determine what kind of person he will become.

It is because of this that Le Jing does not want to have offspring of his own.Because he has no confidence to teach his child well and bring him happiness.

Le Jing took a deep breath to control himself from showing a ferocious expression. He bent down and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Sophia's eyes: "I won't hit you, I promise, never."

■

Sophia took a shower soon, because Lejing didn't have any little girl's clothes here, so she could only be wronged to continue wearing her own dirty clothes.

The young man was sitting at the dining table and gently beckoned him forward: "Are you hungry? I baked some bread for you, come and eat."

The aroma of the baked golden bread wafted, Sophia's eyes lit up, and her stomach growled almost immediately.She stuck out her tongue blushingly, and without any regard for restraint, she sat down quickly and began to gobble it up.

Le Jing handed her a glass of milk and said softly, "Eat slowly, drink some milk, don't choke."

When Sophia was about to eat, Le Jing asked with a smile, "Do you like listening to stories?"

Sophia's mouth was still stained with white milk, and she nodded with bright eyes.

Le Jing got up: "Wait for me." He came back soon, this time with an extra book in his hand.

He raised the book in his hand at Sophia, and winked at her mysteriously: "I bet you will like it."

Sophia looked at the green hardcover book in awe, and was at a loss: "Sir, I can't read."

Le Jing was not surprised by this, not to mention poor people like Sophia, even many of the current nobles could not read a single word.

"It's okay, I'll read it to you." Le Jing smiled at her comfortingly, successfully alleviating Sophia's emotions.

"The title of this book is "Nils' Goose Travels."

It is the only fairy tale in the world that won the Nobel Prize for Literature.And its author, Selma Lagerlof, became the first female writer in the world to win the Nobel Prize for Literature.

This is a fairy tale that Le Jing read countless times when he was a child.The fantasy experience of the protagonist Niels traveling around the world riding a flying goose also aroused his imagination when he was young.It seemed that he also grew wings, flew out of that closed city, and saw a bigger world.

The world is big, so you will definitely meet gentle people and find your own shelter.

And this is what he wanted to tell Sofia.

"Once upon a time there was a boy. He was about fourteen years old, thin, tall, thin, and had fair hair like flax. Love to be mischievous..."

Thus, this beautiful story began.

The poor girl exiled by the villagers as a witch met an overly kind and generous "devil", and then heard an overly beautiful and incredible fantasy story from the "devil".

Sounds like the beginning of a great saga, right?

The author has something to say:

"Nils' Travels on a Goose", I read this book countless times when I was a child, and I can still remember some of the storylines.

Really super nice!blow up!

At that time, I didn't know "The Little Prince", nor "Pipilu", and I didn't know Yang Hongying (I didn't know until I grew up that her naughty boy Ma Xiaotiao was plagiarized from foreign children's literature, sad), so I can say that I The first impression of fairy tales began with "Nils' Travels on a Goose" and "Five Children and the Phoenix and the Magic Carpet" by British female writer Edith Nesbitt.These two completed the enlightenment of western fantasy novels to me. Since then, I have been deeply fascinated by magic, and fell in love with "Harry Potter" deeply afterwards.
