poppy love

Chapter 27

There lived a mother and son who depended on each other in that thatched cottage. Zhuang Zhou was packing his bags for the exam in Beijing and was leaving in three days.

His mother, Mrs. Zhuang, hadn't gotten up yet. In order to show his filial piety, he planned to boil some hot water to wash his mother's face later, and to drive away some of the cold air in the mountains and forests. Unexpectedly, he found a dying white fox in front of the stove.

It was white all over, with blood on the corner of its mouth, and dried blood on its limbs. It seemed that it was seriously injured.

Zhuang Zhou was startled and hurried to call his mother to get up and check.

Mrs. Zhuang straightened her clothes, and then slowly went out to check the white fox that her son mentioned.

"Recently, the government has posted notices everywhere to offer rewards to hunters who catch snow foxes. I'm afraid this little guy will be the only one."

"Mother, you see this little thing is covered in bruises, why don't you stay and take care of it?" Zhuang Zhou suddenly felt compassion.

"It's not difficult to keep it, just don't let the hunters around find it." Zhuang carefully picked up the white fox, put it back in the house, and gently treated the wounds all over his body, chanting, "Snow fox! It's the most beautiful fox in the world. Something with aura, it can come to our house, maybe it will guarantee you to pass the high school entrance exam in Beijing."

"Mother was joking again, if I can go to high school, it must be because my child has real skills." Zhuang Zhou helped out.

The mother and son look at each other and smile, the picture is warm and harmonious.

Under their careful care, Qingqing finally regained consciousness, but she could not return to human form in a short period of time, so she had to lie down in the haystack with her head drooping, watching the bookworm recite the article over and over again, which she had never seen before When I was in the world, I often heard my adoptive father say that the world is the most dangerous place. For greed, people can sell everything that can be sold, including the most precious feelings.So she is full of fear of everything in the world.

Although the mother and son treated her very well, Qingqing didn't get close to them for a short time, and often stood watching and observing from afar.

It's a pity that she has lost her vitality now, unable to return to the land of enchantment, and can only stay in the human world temporarily.

"Mother said that you haven't eaten or drunk for several days, and your body has just recovered. This is not acceptable!" Zhuang Zhou came to it with a bowl of clear water, and Xuehu stepped back a few steps, looking at him warily.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you." Zhuang Zhou secretly took out the minced meat he just picked up at the market from his arms, "I heard that foxes like to eat raw meat, so here's all for you."

I don't eat this stuff, it's disgusting.

What Qingqing ate in Fenghuangfeng was fine milk and jade liquid, and she had never touched human food.

"Eat it, how will you recover if you don't eat it?" Zhuang Zhou waved at it.

Eating this thing can restore vitality?

Qingqing stepped forward in doubt, licked a few mouthfuls of clear water, and then sniffed the minced meat, which seemed to be quite delicious.

"Mother said that you can observe people, and it seems that this is true." Zhuang Zhou saw that he finally ate it, and he was not satisfied. Don’t get hurt again, tomorrow I’m leaving for Beijing to take the exam, if I can pass the high school this time, my mother will be able to get out of poverty.”

The nerd is whining again.

Qingqing nestled lazily in the comfortable haystack, squinting her eyes and listening to him.

"You finished eating? You're so good today." Zhuang Zhou took away the empty bowl and went back to the house overjoyed.

The sky began to drizzle again, dripping on the leaves of the bamboo forest, and the crystal water droplets slowly dripped into the soil and disappeared. The rain here was different from what she had seen in Fenghuangfeng before, and she couldn't tell why Come on, probably because of the lack of fireworks.

When the time came to get up and go to Beijing, Zhuang Zhou took a bamboo basket and bid farewell to his mother.

Qingqing raised her head to see the dark blue shadow go farther and farther, she couldn't help but glanced at Mrs. Zhuang who was wiping away her tears, then suddenly shook her body and disappeared into the bamboo forest with a whoosh.

Zhuang Zhou felt that the bamboo basket suddenly became heavier. He thought he was hallucinating, so he ignored it and continued on his way.

Qingqing exposed half of her head in the bamboo basket, and visited everything in this world. For some reason, she suddenly liked this place a little bit. Although it was not as good as Fenghuangfeng, it made her feel an unprecedented joy, which belonged to The taste of freedom.

Zhuang Zhou noticed something was wrong, he put down the bamboo basket, and it was as expected.

"Why did you come here? Go back quickly, if you let outsiders see you, I'm afraid something will happen again." He patted Xuehu's head and coaxed her to go back.

I was entrusted by your mother to follow you, don't be ignorant of good and evil.

Qingqing gently rubbed against his leg, unwilling to leave.

Zhuang Zhou looked back at the lonely path, couldn't bear it for a moment, and carried it into the bamboo basket again, "Forget it, I'll take you with me, what if I run into danger again this time around? You are now The treasure that the government offered a reward of one thousand silver." He carefully covered the bamboo basket, carried it on his back and left.

It would have been better if I carried her on my back.

Qingqing yawned and fell into a deep sleep.

The first place they inhabited was a dilapidated temple, and the golden Buddha statue inside had been exposed to the sun, rain, wind and rain, and it was tilted to this side.

Under the altar, there is a large incense cauldron full of mud. It can be imagined that there were a lot of pilgrims here in the past.

It's just that bandits have been rampant in recent years, and serious cases of human life are often reported here, and gradually no one dares to come here.

Zhuang Zhou fetched water from the nearby ancient well, scrubbed the Buddha's body carefully, cleaned the altar again, and kowtowed three times.

Baihu tilted his head and looked at him, wondering what this idiot was doing again.

"There are gods standing three feet above your head. Xiaosheng needs to stay here tonight. It is very inconvenient. Please forgive me."

Qingqing took a look at the Buddha statue. It was just a statue of a god made of stone, and it deserved so much respect from mortals?Do you know that the real Buddha doesn't care about suffering at all.

Zhuang Zhou picked up dry firewood again and started a fire. It was late at night, and the fire drove away the chill in the deep mountains.

He was sleepy from reading, so he fell asleep with his pillow on the book.

Qingqing shook her tail and was about to get into his arms to keep warm when a gust of evil wind blew outside.

Qingqing shuddered, it jumped up suddenly, blocked the door, and let out a warning sound of whining.

There must be something wrong with the enchantment in the world, otherwise there wouldn't be a burst of evil spirit suddenly.

The goblin probably didn't expect to hit a nail either.

But the fat is already on the lips, so there is no reason to let it go.

When Qingqing was fighting with her, she gradually discovered that the vitality in her body was rapidly gathering, and soon she was able to transform into a human form.

On the other hand, the goblin gradually became weak.

You suck my energy?Are you from the Demon Race?

When the goblin vanished into thin air, she stared at Qingqing in horror, unwilling to die.

She was finally free to come and go.

Qingqing looked at her up and down dress, and couldn't help but look at the nerd lying on her side.

Step forward slowly and squat down slowly.

Hearing the strange movement, Zhuang Zhou woke up suddenly, in front of him was a peerless beauty, dressed in a long snow gauze dress, with a pair of big watery eyes that I still feel sorry for, quite familiar.

But he was so frightened that he hugged the book in his arms and stared at her in horror: "You... the wilderness, why did the girl suddenly appear?"

"You don't recognize me?" Qing Qing felt a little disappointed.

"Zhuang and the girl have never met before, how can we talk about acquaintance." Zhuang Zhou hurriedly packed his bags, only to find that the little fox was gone.

"Girl, have you seen my white fox?"

"It's just a beast, why should I pay attention." Qingqing said angrily.

"Although it is an animal, it is also my friend." Zhuang Zhou worried that something might happen to the little fox, so he hurriedly looked around.

Qingqing looked at his fleeing figure in a panic, and couldn't help feeling a little sulky, wondering that she was thinking about herself.

The world is a strange place indeed.

Zhuang Zhou searched for a full two hours, and returned to the ruined temple in a daze. When he was downcast, he saw the little snow-white figure holding in the straw shop. Going wild? What should I do if I encounter bad people?"

He just looked around, and there was no sign of the girl, and she probably left.

The white fox looked up at him, but finally did not break free from his embrace, and slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

They accompanied each other along the way, and when he repeated the poems, it fluttered butterflies aside.When he sleeps, it occupies most of the bed and often pushes him outside.The capital city is still thousands of miles away, and Zhuang Zhou took it with him, so he was not so lonely along the way.

After walking for more than half a month, the water and land turned continuously, and they finally came to the feet of the emperor.

Zhuang Zhou was worried that there would be too many people in the inn, and knowing the existence of Xuehu, he found a ruined temple outside the city to settle down.

"Be good and wait here for my return. Thanks to your company along the way, this is the food I prepared for you for three days. Be sure to wait for my triumphant return."

Qingqing was lying in the haystack, it watched Zhuang Zhou leave,

During this period of time, her lost soul is slowly returning to its place, maybe when he comes back from the exam, she will leave.
