[Comprehensive] warm things

【Ruixi, the red plums are in full bloom, help me pick a branch and put it on the window sill. 】

This was the last sentence Mr. Yeomori said to me, but I didn't know it at that time, I just looked up at the blooming plum tree outside the window, happily held Mrs. Yeomori's hand and said: "Well, I Let's go now, Master Yezhi Mori wait for me."

After I left Lord Yeomori's room, I ran to the plum tree as fast as I could, and when I picked the branch with the most flowers and folded it off, I felt the breath of Lord Yeomori disappear.

I didn't know how long I stood under the tree with that branch of plum blossom. When I came back to my senses, it was already dark. I didn't dare to enter the room of Master Yezhisen. I walked to the window and lowered my head to put the branch on the window sill. He fixed his gaze firmly on his clogs, not daring to look up into the room.

Feeling something cold rubbing against my cheek as if comforting me, I turned my head and saw that it was my White Snake Shikigami, its eyes were cloudy and seemed to be sad, I smiled at it, touched its forehead and said: "Why did you show such an expression? Lord Yezhi was just asleep, and it's all my fault for being too slow."

The white snake spit snake letter to me, as if to encourage me to cheer up, I patted its forehead and said, "It's okay, by the way, let's clean the shrine."

On the first day that Yonomori-sama left, I wandered around the shrine with a rag, and then I heard the clear echo of only my footsteps in the shrine.

Every day after that, I would put this branch of plum blossom in front of Lord Yezhimori's window sill, and then stand at the window and tell Lord Yezhimori what I did that day. The last sentence I said will always be: "Then Lord Yenomori, continue to rest, I will go to the shrine hall to have a look."

Until the plum blossoms withered, I had no plum blossoms to give to Yonomori-sama, so I didn't dare to approach the room where Yonomori-sama used to be, but sat alone on the steps in front of the shrine hall.

Before Master Yezhimori became bedridden, she liked to stand here the most. Once, she took Waka and me to welcome the girl named Take Wanghai here.

I don't remember how long it has been since that girl left, but I clearly remember her warm smile and those hands that gently caressed my hair.

My shikigami patted my shoulder lightly with its snake tail, as if to comfort me, I immediately put on a smile and said to it: "It's okay, I'm not alone, Master Yonomori and Waka are both here, although one is here Sleeping late, one is sleeping and recuperating, but it doesn’t matter, because..." I suddenly felt that my vision was a little blurry, I rubbed my eyes quickly, and took out the paper figurine that Wang Hai gave me before leaving from my arms. This is how I can find her clue.

"Because Wanghai will definitely appear, she told me that everything will be fine, so I believe her."

I understand these words very well, but I actually said them to myself.

But that's all I can say, that's all I can believe.

I don't know how long I have been alone in the shrine. My understanding of the changes in the outside world is through the small pond left by Mr. Yezhi Mori. The pond can reflect the world outside the shrine's enchantment. I occasionally bring my Sitting by the pool, Shikigami watched the strange humans come and go, watching their faces with various expressions.

And I stayed in the shrine all the time. During the season when the plum blossoms were in full bloom, I folded flower branches for Master Yonomori. In the withered season, I sat on the steps outside the hall of the shrine and looked at the closed gate of the shrine.

"Ah, winter is finally here."

I gently stroked Shikigami's cold head and smiled, I really like winter, I can enter hibernation in winter, so time passes quickly.

I don't know how many times I have watched the red plums bloom and wither, but the red plums are about to bloom again. I sit under the plum blossoms, leaning against the trunk, looking up at the flowers on the branches blooming slowly, and then watching A figure appeared on a thick branch.

There was a slight smile on her sweet face, and the rhombus-shaped cinnabar on her forehead was more charming than red plums. The wind gently brushed her beautiful clothes. I widened my eyes, stood up quickly and stretched out my hand and said, "Master Ye Zhiming , you climbed a tree again, what if you fell down?"

"Then Ruixi wants to catch me." She bent her eyes and smiled beautifully like a flower, and then she fell from the tree.

"Master Ye no Mori!!!" I stretched out my hand in panic, and when Master Ye no Mori fell into my arm, it turned into countless petals. In the fallen flowers all over the ground.

My head suddenly became heavy, my whole body became dizzy, and the scene in front of me suddenly turned into darkness. I was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly realized, ah, I was dreaming...

I knew a long time ago that I was the only one in this shrine, and Waka was sleeping in the enchantment of Lord Yenomori, and Lord Yenomori had already left.

But I always pretended that everyone was there, because if everyone was there, I would not be alone.

Even if I can't see each other, as long as I think that everyone is by my side, if I just rest in the room and the barrier, I won't feel lonely.

Well, I'm not alone.

I'm not alone at all, because everyone is there.

******

I felt my head getting heavier, and a gentle wind brushed my face gently. I moved my body, but dared not open my eyes.

Because I know that if I open my eyes, I'll be alone...

"Ruixi..."

Something cold was pressed against my forehead, and I heard a soft female voice calling my name, and then voices came to my ears one after another.

"Haha, Ruixi must have drunk too much, hiccup..."

"Brother Zhou, you still said that Ruixi, you are too drunk to stand still."

"Uh, that's because the wine made by Ruixi is really delicious, and the red plums here are really beautiful."

Who is talking, I opened my eyes hard, and saw the beautiful face of the girl and the red plum blossoms in full bloom. The wind blew, and the petals fell one after another. Came to the Night Forest Shrine, with a gentle smile, and a promise about the future.

Now, she is the same as the first time I saw her.

"Are you awake, Ruixi?" Wang Hai gently touched my forehead, and I realized that Wang Hai was sitting beside me. I smiled happily and asked, "Wang Hai, have you come to pick me up?"

Wang Hai froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ah, I'm here to pick you up, Ruixi."

Ah, that's really great, I don't seem to be lonely anymore, I gently grabbed Wang Hai's wrist, and whispered: "Wang Hai, can you touch my head?"

"Well, of course, no matter how many times." She reached out and gently stroked my hair, her voice was so gentle that I wanted to cry.

"It's such a good dream." When I smiled and wanted to close my eyes to wake up, one hand pinched my cheek. The pain made me wake up a lot in an instant. cold face.

In an instant, I felt drenched in cold water, and then I realized that I was lying on Akashi-kun's lap. I quickly got up and apologized, "I'm sorry, Akashi-kun, I, I..."

"It's okay, I'm just telling you that you weren't dreaming just now." Akashi-kun said quietly, I turned my head slightly, and found that everyone was looking at me, Lan and friends who looked at the sea...

"What's the matter, Mizuki hasn't been back to the shrine for a long time, I think I'm very happy," Wanghai's friend, a girl named Wuyue, said with a smile, "And Akashi-kun didn't lift Mizuki's head from Wanghai's lap Are you dragging it to your own leg?"

Akashi-kun didn't say anything, just glanced at Wuyue lightly, Wuyue immediately silenced, and then hid behind Wanghai.

"Speaking of which, has Wanghai's high school been decided yet?" Wanghai's other friend, Mae, changed the subject to ease my embarrassment. I looked at her gratefully, and she smiled back at me.

"Well, I'm going to Luoshan High School." Wang Hai's answer made Akashi-kun's eyes move slightly.

"Ah, what a pity, I'm going to Tonghuang High School, because Ah Da chose Tonghuang, I'm a little worried about him now," Wu Yue pouted, "But he really wants to continue to be with Wanghai and Zhenyi."

"It doesn't matter, as long as we get together often, and the mobile phone is also very convenient." Wang Hai said to Wuyue comfortingly, then turned to look at Mai, "Aren't Mai going to Yinglan?"

"Well, I won't go. I have childhood sweethearts with me in May, and I also want to go to a school where I have acquaintances." Zhenyi took a sip of green tea, stroking the white porcelain teacup gracefully and said, "I'm going to Luoshan too. high school."

Wu Yue rushed over and hugged Zhen Yi, then looked at Wang Hai pitifully and said, "The two of you must always play with me!"

"Why did you jump on my side?" Mai looked sideways at Itsuki and asked with a chuckle, then glanced at Akashi Seijuro.

Wuyue blinked and stuck out her tongue and said, "I've been discovered. I'm not good at dealing with Akashi-kun. If you look at the sea, his sight is too scary."

"Ruixi, let's have something to eat, I only drank alcohol just now." Wang Hai said, and walked towards me with a plate of blue sushi, and then said with a smile, "But Brother Zhou really likes the wine made by Ruixi. Well, look, Brother Zhou has drunk again."

Following the direction Wanghai pointed, I found Wanghai's cousin passed out drunk on the steps of the shrine, and his shikigami and Lan were scurrying around him.

"It's good to relax like this once in a while on Monday, he's always working." I couldn't help but smile.

Wang Hai looked at me softly and said, "Ah, Ruixi's expression like this is the best."

"What kind of expression?" I asked suspiciously, touching my face.

"A smile that can give people vitality," Wang Hai smiled and stretched out his hand to break off a slender plum blossom, and gently pinned it to my ear. "A smile that is lonely and wants to be brave is not suitable for Ruixi at all."

Wang Hai's words warmed my heart, but my nose felt a little sore. I blinked quickly and showed a big smile to Wang Hai.

"Ruixi, do you feel happy today?" Wang Hai asked me softly.

My gaze slowly swept across the figures of all the people under the plum blossom tree, and then I closed my eyes gently in satisfaction. This time I dared to open them without hesitation.

Because everyone is here, this time I didn't imagine it to lie to myself, but it was real.

"Very happy, thank you, Wanghai." My brows and eyes were curved, revealing the happiest smile I felt.

I reached out and touched the red plums that Wanghai folded for me on my ear,

Send it to Night Mori-sama's window later.

Tell Yezhisen-sama that the red plums she planted and took good care of,

it bloomed again,

Everyone thinks it is beautiful.
