Chapter 102: Untie the String
The thickness of the rope on the wall varies, but it is not as thick as a finger, and it is as thin as a hair. Hanging densely on the wall, it makes people's scalp tingle when they look at it. There are so many ropes, each with large and small knots on it. One after the other.
"To open all these knots? It's impossible...... Wouldn't it be faster to cut it directly?"
She really didn't understand why she had to open the knots of these ropes, and why she would have to break them one by one, and most importantly, how much time it would take.
"The thin lines look thin, but they are cut. You need to sort out all these thin threads one by one, and start now, I'll go back and rest after the oil lamp is put here for you, and I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. ”
After saying that, the mother-in-law walked out, and the door slammed shut. The sound was so loud that Shu Shu suddenly walked to the side of the door and tried to open it.
It was as if the door had been spelled, and there was no way to open it with a kick, a shoulder, or a bench. She had a feeling of being deceived.
"Mother-in-law, hurry up and open the door! I don't want to pull these useless strings!"
The mother-in-law outside shook her head and said, "You must untie a hundred ropes tonight, otherwise you won't be able to get out at all, you decide for yourself, and it's your own time that is consumed." I'm leaving. ”
In the rest of the time, no matter how Shu knocked on the door and broke the window, it was to no avail. The door and window seemed to have been spelled on them, and she couldn't break them. The only way to get out now seems to be through the ropes.
Her fists clenched, and she dropped the rope on one wall, all of which were messily intertwined.
She was in a worse mood when she looked at the messy rope. She tried to rip them all up, but with all her strength, the ropes couldn't stop. And it's still entangled together. Originally, the rope of only a few knots was intertwined, so that people had no clue at all.
Seeing the flickering oil lamp, she suddenly had a plan, and it would be good to set all the ropes on fire.
The ropes had just turned red after they had been placed on the fire, and the hot man's hands hurt and he could no longer touch them.
Shu Shu sighed, these ropes are really here to rectify people. The constant tearing and burning is simply the strongest rope in the world.
After a while, Shu Shu regretted what he had just done, and the mother-in-law must have wanted to sharpen her patience by herself, and it seemed that she would not be able to get out at all if she did not untie these knots. But what did she just do?
She made the rope more messy, and it was more difficult to untie it, and she tore it harder, and the knots were stronger, and the rope was so hot after the fire that it was a waste of time waiting for the rope to cool down.
She gritted her teeth and regretted that she had not done it at the beginning. She shouldn't have bothered with that mother-in-law in the first place, and now she is asking for her own hardship.
All night he sat on the edge of the pile of ropes and began to untie them little by little...... From time to time, Shu Shu would get up and scream loudly.
The knots are tied together to look like a dead knot. The scalps of those who see it are numb. In addition, the light at night is not very good, and the whole person is going crazy.
But now she had to untie those knots...... In desperation, she could only be patient and began to untie the ropes one by one.
Time seems to pass very slowly, and the slowness makes people's hearts empty. Shu Shu looked at the ball of threads, and the whole person was blinded. One by one, the threads began to untie one knot after another......
Time began to slip away before she knew it, and the strings were pulled out one by one, and the knots were untied one by one. Shu Shu seems to have suddenly found the trick, and the speed is much faster. When the sun shone into the room, Shuki hung a hundred ropes neatly on the wall, and all that was left was the mess of threads.
After a while, the mother-in-law walked in with breakfast, and when she saw the neat lines on the wall, she smiled and nodded.
"Mother-in-law, are you deliberately trying to fix me? I don't care about you when you're old, but you're really wasting a lot of my time. ”
Time is actually Shu Xiao's life, and she can't use Shu Xiao's life to untie these useless ropes.
The mother-in-law looked at her and smiled and said, "Is the rope enough?"
"Won't you check if it's enough? Okay, I don't want to talk to you more, I'll go back now. ”
Shu Shu's expression looked a little more helpless, even if her mother-in-law made a joke with her, she couldn't be disrespectful to the old man, after all, she was an old man.
"Sometimes you are impetuous, sad, or scared not because you are afraid of things at all, but because you are impetuous, everything will become difficult to do. The harder it is, the less confident you are, you think you won't be able to untie those ropes at all, and now you see that the ropes you untied will soon be hanging on the wall?"
Shu Shu stopped and looked at her mother-in-law.
She had really thought about it a lot last night, and the knots were like the difficulties she had encountered, one after the other, and she had to find her head and untie them one by one.
Flustered, irritable, and anxious emotions can make her untie the knot slow and chaotic. But then she sped up after she tried to untie the knots wholeheartedly and put all those emotions behind......
"What do you mean?" Shu Shu wasn't sure if this mother-in-law meant that, so he could only ask tentatively.
The mother-in-law put breakfast on the table and said, "Eat first." ”
She was indeed hungry after a night's work, and quickly finished her breakfast.
"You're a smart kid, but you're too impetuous. Not only is it impetuous but also impulsive, in fact, I know very well that you have the ability to never forget, but such a powerful person can't read a word. Have you ever wondered why?"
"I'm clear now, thank you for your mother-in-law's advice. I'm going to go back and read now, memorize all those books and make them all the best. I think I'll be out soon. ”
Looking at her distant back, a smile hung on the corner of her mother-in-law's mouth. This child's perception is indeed very high. Such a child turned out to be a nine-tailed fox, and there was a powerful force in his body. She even felt that this child was sent by God to save Qingqiu.
After going back, Shu Shu followed the scholar to read the book honestly, she memorized those words after reading them once, and the expression of the scholar next to him looked very funny, he didn't expect Shu Shu to become a strange person overnight. (To be continued.) )
