[Onmyoji] Twenty centimeters meet

Autumn this year is exceptionally short.

It has been more than a month since the Lord of Arakawa came back from the underwater palace, and the weather in Forest Village has suddenly cooled down from the slightly cool early autumn.It was as if the cold had covered the entire land overnight, and the leaves all turned golden. Occasionally, a gust of cool wind would blow, and those dead leaves that could not withstand the cold wind would fall from the branches and roll up.

The demon power absorbed by the brain before was also exhausted, and Hayakawa Jiang changed back on a cold autumn rainy night.It just so happened that there was another cold wave to cool down, so Guhuo Niao put away all the thin clothes of Hayakawa Jiang, and carefully scented each package. The plants that grow naturally in the mountains can not only bring a pleasant aroma, but also Deworming.Hayakawa Jiang thought it was good, so she packed some and sent some to the little deer man who lived in the mountains—and asked for dinner by the way.

No one would have imagined that the little deer man who has lived alone for a long time actually has exquisite cooking skills. Although the living room is simple, he can cook with the most simple and original pots and pans and various spices that are easily collected in the mountains. You can cook a pot of delicious soup or soft and glutinous rice porridge.

Ever since I tasted it once by chance, Hayakawa Jiang has been deeply impressed by the good craftsmanship of the little deer man, so that recently he often finds excuses to go to the back mountain, and then slowly returns, so that he can pass by the little deer man while stepping on the meal. I stopped by my house for dinner.

The autumn sun is a wonderful gift, so as long as the weather is good, Xiaolu will go out for a walk after lunch.Pick some small flowers in the mountains to decorate the window, or take care of the large flower garden, and sometimes pick up some firewood and game to add some unique flavors to the dinner.And as long as he meets Hayakawa Jiang at this time, then the dinner must be prepared for two more people-as long as Hayakawa Jiang appears in the back mountain, he will definitely come over at meal time, and he will bring him with him. With a little partner to help cover.

Sometimes it is a mountain rabbit, sometimes it is a weasel, and a few times it is a cherry blossom demon or a peach blossom demon.

But even if they bribed them with the little deer man's dinner, the news still got out - after all, with the single-celled weasel around, many secrets were no longer secrets.

Just going back and forth like this, Hayakawa Jiang also felt that she couldn’t just eat other people’s dinner for free, and more or less had to bring a small gift to express her affection, so after seeing Gu Huo Niao drying the flowers and plants that had been picked many times Then a good idea came up.

"This is...?" The little deer man is still the same as when we first met him. He lives in the mountains all year round, and with the soft fur on his body, he won't feel cold, so he doesn't have to wrap it up when he goes out like Hayakawa Jiang. That majestic little cloak—the feathers of the Ootengu are extremely precious, and I am afraid that only Hayakawa Sakura has this honor in the entire demon world.

"It's some flowers and plants I picked in the back mountain before." Hayakawa Jiang waited for the little deer man's compliment with a face full of credit, "Auntie dried them for me to make dried flowers, and I made them into small sachets. The smell is not strong, you can put it in the cabinet." Hayakawa Jiang held a sachet that was almost half the size of her own in her fleshy hands, and she was still a little uncomfortable with her palm-sized body, so she held the sachet His hands trembled as if holding a dynamite bag.

"Thank you," the little deer man held back a smile when he saw Hayakawa Jiang's funny appearance, and finally couldn't help laughing when he saw the little girl relieved of a heavy burden, "I like it very much."

"Just like it." Mistaking the little deer man's smile as the joy of receiving a gift, Hayakawa Jiang just waved her hands and tilted her head full of pride.

Most of the flowers and plants growing in the mountains smell elegant, and after being baptized by the autumn sun, they still exude the most simple smell of grass and trees. Through the sachet made of tulle fabric, the seemingly invisible smell slowly escapes, but for a long time, the whole room is full of fragrance. It's that nice smell.The little deer man didn't put the sachet in the closet as Hayakawa Jiang said, but hung it up with him - right on the snare drum at his waist.

There is nothing more gratifying than giving a gift that is loved by the other party.

That night, autumn came to an end quickly, a cold wind picked up suddenly, and then the last autumn rain came as expected, and the outdoor temperature dropped all of a sudden.Fortunately, Hayakawa Jiang returned early, otherwise she and Shantu would have encountered this rain straight away.

Hayakawa Jiang passed by Otengu's yard, but found that there was no light in his yard, and he must have not returned, but the footsteps of the return journey did not stop, but continued to run towards Guhuo Bird's yard together with the mountain rabbit.

Unexpectedly, the big tengu is indeed not in his room, but sitting in Guhuo Niao's house and waiting for the rabbit.

"Did you go to the back mountain again in the afternoon?" As soon as he entered the door, the voice of the big tengu rang out.

……Eh?

Hayakawa Jiang's body lying on the back of the magic frog was about to freeze.

Only a small lamp was lit in the room, and it was placed on the table in the center, while the big tengu sat on the cushioned rocking chair on the other side, with its wings folded up, following its owner The body swayed once and for all.

The lights were dim, and Ootengu's expression couldn't be seen clearly.

Before Hayakawa Jiang could think of an excuse, Otengu said again: "Itachi met me halfway today, and he subconsciously hid when he saw me. Do you think it's strange?"

Hayakawa Jiang suddenly felt that it was really tiring to have a pig teammate.

I usually go to the back mountain with Kamaitachi, and I have repeatedly warned him that if he sees a big tengu from a distance, he will pretend to be wandering and avoid it inadvertently. The rabbit used the excuse of going out to play together to go to the back mountain—you must know that since he was taken away by Qing Ji in the back mountain, Otengu is extremely sensitive about going to the back mountain by himself.But what I didn't expect was that Kamaitachi would hide from the big tengu even if he didn't go to the back mountain, and he hid so clearly as if he was afraid that the other party wouldn't know.

But the little deer man's craftsmanship is really attractive!

Hayakawa Jiang watched Otengu's index finger tap the armrest of the rocking chair lightly, and the polished wood made a soft sound because of the index finger's tap.

This is a sign that the big tengu is getting angry.

Knowing that the matter was revealed, Shantu and Mowa left guiltily under the urging of Daitengu's eyes, and left Hayakawa Jiang with a comforting look that asked for blessings.

"The girl went out to look for you, and she thought you were just wandering around, but she didn't expect the sickle itachi to recruit them all at once. Tell me, why did you go to the back mountain without telling me?" This is the big tengu's anger s reason.

——He didn't want Zaochuan Jiang to hide anything from him. In the village of Mori, he should be the closest to her, and maybe Gu Huo Niao, but knowing that he had warned about the danger of Houshan He insisted on going, but the most fundamental reason was because of the little deer man's good craftsmanship... I am afraid that only this little confused person in front of him can find this ridiculous reason.

The big tengu has already figured out the whole matter, and the stone in Hayakawa Jiang's heart has also been put down. Although it is true that she acted sneakily, but the big tengu's words clearly forgave herself, but she felt a little unhappy because she was concealed.

Hayakawa Jiang is very good at things like Shunmao.

Taking advantage of the time when Hayakawa Jiang was thinking about countermeasures, the big tengu reached out to pick up the little girl and let her sit on his lap, just like a parent grooming a cub. The long wind-blown hair and the soft touch reminded him of Hayakawa Jiang's grown-up appearance—the small one is so cute that people want to put it in their pockets, but the girly appearance is also very good, he can He hugged her into his arms and warmed her hands with his own, instead of being able to cover her whole body with one hand like now.

Hayakawa Sakura didn't speak for a while, but lowered her head slightly and played with the fingers of Ootengu.

The temperature outside suddenly dropped, but the room was still as warm as spring. Hearing the patter of rain outside the window and the sound of wind after another, Haruka Hayakawa felt drowsy just like that, but she still knew she couldn't sleep now, she Still have to wait for the Big Tengu to speak.

"Go to sleep for a while, I'll call you later." Big Tengu saw Hayakawa Jiang's small yawn, and felt more and more like raising a daughter. He put his hands around Hayakawa Jiang's skirt, watching When the bell on the ankle shrunk along with Hayakawa Jiang's body, his hands paused, and then he directly picked up the small cloak on the side to cover Hayakawa Jiang's whole body.

With the cover of the cloak, Hayakawa Jiang felt warm all of a sudden, and her sleepiness became more and more intense.Following the big tengu's words, she closed her eyes in peace.

Gu Huo Niao came back once halfway, and nodded when she saw that Otengu and Hayakawa Jiang were both there. The sudden rain made her a little worried about the other cubs, so she just took advantage of this time to visit them.Daitengu leaned back, closed his eyes slightly, against the pattering sound outside the window, he could vaguely hear Hayakawa Sakura's soft breathing.

He tried to reach out his hand in front of Hayakawa Jiang's rosy sleeping face, quietly feeling the soft breath with his fingers, and his heart melted into a puddle of water.

In the end, Ootengu was not willing to wake up the sleeping Akane Hayakawa, but simply washed the dazed little girl before going to bed at night, and stuffed her into the small quilt.

After a good night's sleep, Hayakawa Jiang woke up early the next morning.

The rain outside the window was still falling, but the sound of the wind became more and more violent.Hayakawa Jiang rubbed her eyes and lifted the quilt. As soon as she changed her clothes, she saw Otengu pushing the door and walking in with a carved food box.

As the door creaked and was pushed open, a gust of cold air rushed in. Fortunately, a small charcoal fire was lit in the room at some point, so it didn't feel cold.

"Suddenly it became winter." Hayakawa Jiang murmured as she caught a glimpse of the withered scenery in the yard, and then turned her attention to the food box brought by Otengu, "What is this? It smells so good ah……"

"Now that you're up, let's go wash up quickly." The big tengu said and opened the lid of the food box, and moved out the dishes one by one.

The fried rice cake slices are browned and crispy, exuding sweet and fragrant dipping sauce, delicious millet porridge, and soft, glutinous and crystal-clear dumplings of various colors.

As soon as she saw something delicious, Hayakawa Jiang couldn't help speeding up the washing process, but after a while, she sat at the table dressed neatly and full of anticipation.

"Taste it." First, he drank a small bowl of porridge, and after the stomach was nourished and warmed, Daitengu held a small piece of golden baked rice cake dipped in sauce and handed it to Hayakawa Jiang's mouth.

"Delicious!" Hayakawa's eyes were so happy that she narrowed her eyes. Under the crunchy skin of the rice cake was a soft heart that would be spent. With the slightly sweet sauce, this winter delicacy immediately awakened Hayakawa's taste buds up.

"Just like it." Seeing that Hayakawa Jiang was almost chewing, Datengu picked up another small piece, "I was afraid that you would think it was too sweet, so I didn't put too much sugar."

...wait, you did this?

Hayakawa Akane almost didn't bite her tongue, and she hadn't swallowed the food in her mouth, so she could only stare at Daitengu with wide eyes and didn't speak.

"That's right, I made it." Datengu didn't care how surprised Hayakawa Jiang was when his words caused him. He just sent the rice cake forward again, signaling the little girl to eat it quickly.

"It doesn't taste good when it's cold, and it's easy to accumulate food."

The author has something to say: ah... I want to eat baked rice cakes, the kind made by the big tengu (chuck)
