Summons: Ashizaki Sotobi

After that, Suyuan took Bawei to another village, but she didn't live in it. Instead, she built a thatched cottage at the foot of a mountain.It won't be too far away from the village, so it can be protected by the enchantment of the village maiden; it won't be too close, after all, Ba Wei is a fox, and it is inevitable to avoid the crowd.There are few people at the foot of the mountain and it is suitable for living.

"Suyuan, Suyuan, are you alright?!"

In front of the simple thatched cottage, there is a small courtyard.Colorful flower gardens are distributed around the courtyard, full of fragrance.A tall pergola was erected on one side of the yard, and grape vines climbed on it.Under the pergola is a wooden rocking chair, built by Su Yuan and Ba Wei. At night, you can sit on it and watch the stars.On the other side of the courtyard, various vegetables are planted in the open space.

Ba Wei sat on the wooden rocking chair, his calf hanging in the air, shaking boredly, the fox ears on the top of his head and the fox tail behind him also shook.Until Su Yuan went out, Ba Wei jumped down and ran to Su Yuan.

Su Yuan smiled and rubbed Bawei's hair: "I'm going out, don't put my ears and tail away."

Ba Wei touched his ears, and put it away with a shy face.

"Let's go." Su Yuan naturally took Bawei's little hand, and in the other hand held a basket full of flowers and herbs, ready to go to a village not far away to exchange for some daily necessities.

She and Ba Wei have lived in this place for nearly half a year, and they have become more or less familiar with the people in the village.In the eyes of those villagers, she and Ba Wei, the siblings, came here because they fled famine, so the villagers would take care of them.

After exchanging flowers and herbs for some food, Su Yuan went to buy some light gray thread. It’s winter now. According to modern Japanese traditional festivals, the New Year is coming soon, so she plans to weave a thread for Bawei. scarf.The previous year was because she didn't know that Bawei was a demon fox, and she felt sad thinking about celebrating the New Year alone, so she never thought about celebrating the New Year, but this year was different, Bawei was by her side, so this New Year was with him.

In the evening, Su Yuan sat on the tatami, knitting stitch by stitch.Ba Wei was lying on the tatami, with his head resting on his hands, staring at Su Yuan curiously, "Su Yuan, what are you doing?"

"Weaving a scarf," Su Yuan glanced at Ba Wei, and said with a smile, "It's a New Year's gift for Ba Wei."

"Eh? Mine? New Year's gift?" There are no holidays in the world of monsters, Ba Wei tilted his head, although he didn't know what the so-called New Year was, but he knew that Su Yuan would give him something.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Yuan put the unfinished scarf aside, and patted Ba Wei's head: "Okay, you will know in a few days. Go to sleep now."

"it is good"

When Su Yuan blew out the oil lamp, Ba Wei smiled and shrank into Su Yuan's arms, hugging her tightly, his little face was bright.Su Yuan has long been used to Ba Wei's behavior, she always likes to sleep with things hugged like a child.Then one hand wrapped around him, and the other gently stroked his back: "Go to sleep."

On the day of the New Year, Su Yuan took out the minced meat and patted Bawei's little hand that wanted to steal it: "Today we are making dumplings, no stealing is allowed!"

Ba Wei stuck out his tongue mischievously, retracted his small hand, and watched Su Yuan skillfully roll out pieces of round dough.

"Come on, I'll tell you to make dumplings." Su Yuan took Bawei's little hand and led him to make a dumpling bit by bit, "We'll eat it tonight."

After making sure that Ba Wei learned it, Su Yuan let go of her hand.Wrapping dumplings again and again, watching Ba Wei clumsily rolling out the dough and stuffing it, he said with a smile, "Ba Wei, a boy who can cook is very attractive."

Ba Wei, who was stuffing meat, suddenly became nervous when he heard this, blinking his beautiful purple eyes: "Does Su Yuan like it too?!"

"of course."

"Then I will learn to cook!"

Su Yuan looked at Ba Wei who was making dumplings seriously, her eyes were soft: "Well, I'm looking forward to it."

After eating dumplings with Ba Wei, Su Yuan took out the knitted light gray scarf, and under Ba Wei's expectant eyes, put it on his neck with her own hands: "When the weather is cold, you can wear it around your neck. wear it."

"Um"

Ba Wei's smiling face suddenly made Su Yuan feel a little guilty.

It has been almost two years since this era, Su Yuan thought, during World War II, it seemed that she also stayed for nearly two years.If her travel time is limited, it is estimated that this time, the time for her to leave is almost here.

If she leaves, Bawei will be very sad.

She wanted to spend more time with Bawei before leaving, in her opinion, it could slightly reduce the guilt in her heart.

However, she didn't know that the moment of parting came so suddenly that people were caught off guard.

On the early morning of the first lunar month, Bawei wore the scarf she wove as usual, and jumped into the mountains to play; Su Yuan had nothing to worry about, after all, Bawei was a demon fox and had the ability to protect herself.

But on that day, a priestess from a village not far away died suddenly.The centipede who heard the news immediately chose to attack, and Su Yuan was at the edge of the village, so the centipede broke through the barrier, and the first person to see it was Su Yuan.

Afterwards, the centipede's sudden attack made it too late for Su Yuan to react and run away. Just when Su Yuan thought she was going to die this time, the tassel bracelet on her right hand suddenly emitted a dazzling white light, and the centipede was viciously bounced away.

This is……

Su Yuan sat slumped on the ground, staring at the strings of tassel bracelets, suddenly recalling Master Guochanglu's words.It was also a winter, and he personally put on this tassel bracelet for her. He said that this tassel bracelet can keep you safe.

grown ups……

Before Su Yuan came back to her senses, the long-lost and familiar feeling of weightlessness struck again, and in an instant, Su Yuan disappeared in place.

When Ba Wei heard the movement at the foot of the mountain, he rushed to see a mess.The courtyard that was full of fragrance in the morning was now in ruins. Ba Wei looked at the centipede entrenched on the ground, but there was no sign of Su Yuan.

Could it be... Su Yuan was...

The usually bright purple eyes instantly darkened, filled with impenetrable mist and ice, just like the cold animal eyes when Su Yuan first met Ba Wei: "You, damn it!"
