[Go Soul Natsume's Book of Friends] Guang Xia

Qing Lan.

The ancient meaning is, "the first breeze of early summer."

Zuowei smiled softly, and there seemed to be a radiance in his voice, "When I first met Sugawara Hime, she was still a baby in the swaddle. I remember very clearly that when I fed her porridge, it was the warm solar term. It was early summer. Sugawara Hime didn’t have a name yet, and at that time, the summer breeze started, and the Green Leaf Festival was held on Arashiyama—so, I gave Sugawara Hime the small character of ‘Qinglan’.”

Qing Lan, the "Qing Xing Lantern" in the legend of Hundred Ghosts, Natsume's first impression of her was that shy and low-browed girl in Tsing Yi during the Obon Festival.Natsume has never understood the quaint and fierce girl chess player on the chessboard that he just talked about.

As for Sugawara Hime, this unfamiliar title has another gorgeous and timeless meaning when Zuowei opens his lips.As if a picture scroll unfolded, Natsume seemed to see a noble girl in twelve single clothes, her gaze was like water, and the black hair draped over her shoulders was like night.

Zuo Wei said politely: "Unexpectedly, Ji Sugawara finally became a monster in "Friends' Book" and played such an exquisite chess game. Both Xiao Liang and Xiao Guang regarded her as an opponent. If she hadn't quit early In the professional chess world, presumably, they will be the best female chess players."

Natsume felt heavy and sore.

"Takashi, Sugawara Hime has been wandering for thousands of years like me, and she still left her name in "Book of Friends". I really want to see her—but I don't know, after a thousand years, does she still remember me?"

Zuo Wei's voice was joyful and melancholy, like a wind blowing through fallen leaves.Natsume couldn't say a word.

Zuowei...

Qing Lan died precisely to fulfill you.

"Zuowei." Xia Mu said softly, the frost on the ground seems to be able to infect people's hearts, "Qing Lan once asked my grandmother to find you... She waited for you for thousands of years in shame. I hope you don't blame her."

——Qing Lan... I told Zuo Wei for you, so it's fulfilling your wish for grandma, right?

"What did you say, Takashi?" Zuowei on the other end of the phone was puzzled, "Why is Hime Sugawara ashamed?"

Xia Mu was caught off guard - Zuo Wei, didn't he know why Qing Lan was ashamed of him? !

Qing Lan's thousand years of waiting...is it meaningless?

Natsume felt a sudden pain in his chest and panicked, thankful, but unwilling.He couldn't help asking: "Zuo Wei, think about it, has Qing Lan really never done anything to be ashamed of you?"

"Not really. Unless..."

"unless?"

"Unless the Sugawara chess player framed me. But what does this have to do with Sugawara Hime?"

Natsume knows Zuowei's past thousands of years ago.It turned out that at that time, Harizuo was a chess player who committed suicide by throwing water, and his surname was Sugawara.

It's because of this.Natsume thought.

Although I don't know what complicated entanglements are behind this, it must be because of this incident that Qing Lan has been waiting for Zuo Wei for thousands of years.

"Zuowei, do you still hate the chess player who killed you?" Natsume asked.

Zuo Wei said: "I don't hate it anymore." He smiled lightly, "I understood many years ago that the gods let me wander in this world for thousands of years just to make me perfect.

"Life is impermanent, and I am grateful for all impermanence."

<<

impermanence of life.The four great sufferings.The five yins have no self.Birth and death variation.

What Natsume sees most in the ancient mirror is the scene of the girl transcribing Buddhist verses in the Zen room in the forest.

Sugawara Hime, born with abnormal vocal cords and unable to cry, was regarded by the tribe as the incarnation of fierce ghosts, and her parents were also given to death.When Arashiyama held the Green Leaf Festival, she was taken away by the maid at home and abandoned by the river.

The baby in the swaddle spent the night by the river, crying silently, inevitably suffering from cold and fever.When she was dying, a young nobleman found her in time, was shocked, and picked up the swaddling baby in the reeds, which saved her life.He took good care of the baby, sought medical advice, and fed gruel himself.Seeing that her high fever persisted, he even prayed for her, and took small characters for her: "Qing Lan".

Sugawara Hime has no clear memories of this past when she was a baby.However, she can always recall a pair of blue-purple eyes staring at herself with infinite love.Accompanied by it, there is a voiceless voice.

After a long time, Hime Sugawara found out that the person who saved her and gave her small characters was named Fujiwara Sakai.

Qing Lan.The first breeze of early summer.Bright, warm and hopeful.

But her fate was very different from her name.Her uncle, Sugawara Ki waited for the edict and took her back.Uncle already had a suspicion for her, but later he abandoned it again because of another eccentricity of Sugawara Hime——

When she was playing chess, she always jumped up in panic, staring at a certain place in front of her, her body trembling like chaff.After I learned to write, I wrote the same word over and over again - "monster".

Yes, Sugawara Hime, can see youkai.

Sugawara Ji is proficient in chess, and his uncle still cherishes his talents, but the concubine in the house hates Sugawara Hime even more, and even the servants dare to throw stones at her.Because of the existence of Hime Sugawara, the mansion is always restless, and finally the uncle can't stand the disturbance, and abandons her in the Isatsuki Forest again.

There are no attendants in the mysterious forest, Sugawara Hime is even more afraid of monsters, but can't escape, so she has to copy the Buddhist verses in the meditation room for peace of mind.Fortunately, she found the chessboard and chess pieces in the meditation room, and then played scores all day long.

If someone hadn't broken into the door, she would never have known what amazing talent she possessed.

"Don't come over!" A female voice yelled in horror from outside, "You...don't come over!"

The chess piece fell to the ground with a slap, Sugawara Hime's heart tightened, and she hurriedly left the meditation room and ran along the place where the sound came from.An aristocratic girl in a cherry-purple singlet fell into the grass.The high-ranking youkai of Isatsuki no Mori rushed towards her.In the blink of an eye, Hime Sugawara took out a talisman from her bosom and saved the girl's life.

She thus met Fujiwara Koko.

——Same as the person in the dream, a girl with a pair of blue-purple eyes.
