Dinon

There were a lot of dead branches in the woods, Yuan Shuyi didn't go into the woods, just picked up some fallen branches outside the woods, felt that it was almost enough to start a fire, then she untied a very thin twig from her waist The cowhide whip touched the vividly carved peculiar patterns on it, and said to it with a half-sigh, "It's not that I want to be overqualified, it's just that a phoenix in trouble is not as good as a chicken, your master, my stomach is still empty," he said , she patted her belly without any fat, and continued to say to the whip, "Mother, you can't bear the heart of your only daughter to starve to death, right? I know I'm not filial, and I have ruined what you left me , But there is no way.” After finishing speaking, Yuan Shuyi looked at the rising sun, licked her dry and chapped lips due to lack of water, and tied a large pile of dry skin with the whip. Chai, while muttering to himself, "Mother, you don't want me to go underground to meet you right away, do you? When you were here, you often taught me 'Small intolerance can lead to big plans', but I have always followed what you said I did it, it's just..." After tying up the big pile of firewood, Yuan Shuyi didn't care that it was dirty, so she put it on her back with a little effort, and walked towards the river with it on her back, "It's just You said that you have taught me so much, why didn’t you teach me the art of voodoo divination? Otherwise, I would not have ended up in this situation.” As she spoke, she thought about it and laughed, “I think that divination is also the same. Lie, otherwise you won't be able to tell when you will die?"

Shaking his head, Yuan Shuyi continued to walk forward, thinking while walking, as expected, divination and fortune-telling are like cultivating immortals and alchemy, which has been criticized the most in ancient times, isn't it?What's the point if everyone's fate is counted and they follow the predetermined fate step by step?

Just like this time, if she knew what would happen in advance, how could she meet that little girl?

Therefore, life is as sudden as sending, and as dynamic as participating in business.

From a long distance, I saw that girl who couldn't hide her beauty even though she was wearing men's clothes. She sat on the grass obediently and motionless, her face was so red from the sun that she was painted with rouge when she got married. But I didn't know that I ran to the shade of the tree to enjoy the shade, but just sat there stupidly, watching the "crash" of the small river flowing.

Seeing her like this, Yuan Shuyi was annoyed and funny at the same time, thinking in her heart that she had never seen such a sincere person before, I told you to wait here and you just wait in place?Don't know where to hide?

This vicious sun!

This silly girl!

She didn't realize that Yuan Shuyi had walked in front of her eyes, she still stared at Xiaohe, until Yuan Shuyi's mischievous hand waved in front of her eyes a few times before she suddenly became surprised.

"How did you become a husband-watching stone?" Yuan Shuyi looked at her teasingly, "I've been standing here for a long time, and you still can't come back to your senses. If you don't come back to your senses, I suspect that your soul was hooked by the river god. let's go."

Embarrassed by her "Wangfushi" in the previous sentence, Tuo Bachen pursed his lips and stomped his feet, then turned his back to her, "You make fun of me like this again, I will ignore you!" But it was not halfway through. Within a few words, she heard Yuan Shuyi say "the god of the river" again, and she broke the agreement first, then turned around and looked at Yuan Shuyi expectantly, "Is there really a river god in this world?"

"This..." Yuan Shuyi saw that she was angry with him, so he naturally regretted that he had played a joke on her without knowing the seriousness, but he didn't know that she was used to teasing with the gang of aristocratic children on weekdays, and it was difficult to get rid of this rags for a while. Habits, but she also understands that Nodo in this mountain village values ​​women's integrity more than those in Kyoto. Although Tuobachen is wearing men's clothing, she is still a girl after all. For "husband" and "wife", raising After more than ten years in this village, he was still restrained to some extent.She is now joking with her like this, and she is struggling to find a reason to apologize to her. Now that she hears her question, she is immediately elated and said nonsense, "That's natural. There are so many elves and monsters in this world, but there may not be a river god." Woolen cloth."

"Will the drowned person become a river god?"

Looking at Tuo Bachen's eyes that radiated strong hope, Yuan Shuyi touched her nose uncomfortably, and said vaguely, "Yes, didn't you say that people have human nature and ghosts have ghost ways? When it gets into the water, it becomes a ghost... um... isn't it the river god..."

"Then does this river also have a river god?" Tuo Bachen was very excited when she heard Yuan Shuyi's words, she couldn't wait to point to the river in front of her, and asked Yuan Shuyi.

"Well, didn't you say that there are all rivers in the world?" Yuan Shuyi avoided her hopeful eyes and continued, "Since this river is a river, it has a river god, right?" She didn't notice Tuoba Chen The real meaning in the words is just to avoid this topic, after all, he will still leave a pimple in his heart if he talks nonsense and deceives people, "Ah, you see, we are too busy talking, and we forget about serious things. Do you want to eat?" She said as she picked up the firewood she had placed on the ground, took out the flint and steel she brought, and fiddled with it to light it.

On the other side, Tuo Bachen was very happy to hear Yuan Shuyi's words, closed his eyes with his palms together, and said silently in his heart, "Daddy, my son knows that you must have protected him for many years. When the Qingming Festival comes, he will be well." I worship you." She bowed to the river several times before turning around reluctantly and walking to Yuan Shuyi.

The stone that she has been pressing on her heart for many years has finally fallen to the ground at this moment, whether it is self-deception or others, she can't help but feel happy, but now looking at Yuan Shuyi's busy side face, the floating air in her heart has settled down, as if she has found her belonging, she is calm Quietly watching Yuan Shuyi busy there.The flames of the flint and steel jumping are very tiny, light blue flashes in Yuan Shuyi's eyes, the bright stars in the dark night are as mysterious and beautiful, like Yuan Shuyi very much.

After trying for a long time, she still couldn't completely ignite the firewood, Yuan Shuyi blushed, her originally charming appearance was even more alluring now, she coughed as if to cover up, trying to attract Tuobachen's attention.

"What's the matter?" Tuo Bachen was coughed by her, and his thoughts returned immediately. Her face was blushing, and she looked at Yuan Shuyi evasively.

"This..." Yuan Shuyi shyly handed over a large piece of wood, "Why can't this one light?"

"Huh?" Tuo Bachen was amused by her action, "You can't light this one alone." Then, she took the piece of wood from Yuan Shuyi's hand, and told her demonstratively, "When the fire is burning, You need to use some thatch and other easy-to-ignite as a primer first, and then slowly put these big firewood." As she said, she put the fluffy grass she brought into the pit she dug, and then used wood The shovel made a small hole beside the pit, connecting the pit and the hole, then put some smaller firewood picked up by Yuan Shuyi on the velvet grass, and finally put the big firewood on it.

"That's how it's lit." Tuo Bachen stretched out his hand while speaking, and signaled Yuan Shuyi to hand over the flint and steel with his eyes.Yuan Shuyi pursed her mouth reluctantly, and her eyes were wet and seductive, she couldn't believe that even after she had performed her charms, Tuobachen could still ask her for a flint and steel!

Unexpectedly, Tuo Bachen didn't listen to her tricks at all, instead, he took the flint from her hand naturally, hit it twice with "bang bang", and then turned around to get the fish she had washed.After carefully stringing it up with clean wooden sticks and carefully making a wooden frame, Tuo Bachen put the fish under the firewood for grilling.

"Hey, why don't you make fish soup?" Yuan Shuyi swallowed resentfully, she just wanted to experience the joy of life in the crops, but Tuo Bachen easily snatched away this hard-won opportunity. Let's take it, she finally took a fancy to a carp, and originally wanted to drink it with soup.Fresh Mushroom, Tremella and Carp Soup, a soup she likes so much, it tastes delicious, and when you drink it, it is full of fish fragrance, why should you deprive it!

"Alas..." Tuo Bachen sighed in her heart, this is what the old people often say "a full man does not know a hungry man is hungry". Didn't she know that a farmer doesn't care whether the food is good or not, but whether it can fill his stomach?A piece of fish is not enough for the two of them to bake. She still wants to make soup?

Ignoring her, Tuo Bachen carefully turned over the fish on the wooden rack, and occasionally used the wooden stick to poke the firewood to adjust the heat. In less than a cup of tea, there was a smell of grilled fish on the side of the small river. fragrance.

Yuan Shuyi was already so hungry that she had no energy left to dislike her anymore. She was starving right now, and smelling the aroma of the grilled fish made her feel much more refreshed. Seeing Tuobachen take the grilled fish off the wooden rack, she stretched out her hand I'm going to get it.

"Hey……"

"Ah! It's hot!"

"The fish is still on fire, why are you so eager to take it." Tuo Bachen said to her reproachfully, although he did not mean much to blame, "Show me quickly, what is wrong with your hand?" gone."

"Ah, it's all right," Yuan Shuyi avoided her, "I just touched the one that wasn't burnt, and it's nothing serious."

"Show me!" Tuo Bachen was angry, the rabbit was about to bite, she ignored Yuan Shuyi's resistance, and pulled her hand to hurt her.

"It's okay, it's really okay." Yuan Shuyi's mouth was stiff, and she insisted on pulling her hand back, but her large-scale pushing and pushing moved the injury on her left shoulder again. The little rabbit Tuo Bachen pulled her hand away very successfully.

"Yuan Shuyi, you lied. Is that what you said? It's okay?" Tuo Bachen was about to cry when she heard the voice, she carefully stroked Yuan Shuyi's left hand, and then opened her right hand again in spite of her weak protest. , saw several blisters on her hands that had broken skin and were still bleeding pus, tears dripped down her eyes as soon as she blinked.

"Hey, don't cry." Yuan Shuyi comforted her, "Look, I'm useless. I just dig a little soil and grind out a few blisters. It's not your fault. Why are you crying? And look, Fortunately, it's broken now, and it won't be fine until it scabs over in a few days."

"Wuuu..." Tuo Bachen held back tears and shook his head, since her parents were gone, this was the first time someone was willing to treat her like this.
