Chapter 1 The Outsider
When I opened my eyes, I saw bamboo trees, which were everywhere, and even the light in the sky was blocked by bamboo leaves, and when they fell to the ground, only tiny beams of light remained. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"If I'm not mistaken, I did fall asleep in my bed last night." Yuelin rubbed her messy broken hair, the weeds in the grass made Yuelin a little uncomfortable, and the real touch broke Yuelin's last extravagant hope.
"It seems that it is not a dream, to catch up with the trend of the 21st century? But that's not how my original script is! In reality, I'm half a winner in life. Yuelin looked down at the land he had pressed against the grass before, and there was no trace of life activity in the vicinity.
Maybe these traces can be artificially erased, but I don't think anyone will bother with such a boring little thing... Well, if the god who brought himself here is also human.
"Let's walk around, maybe this is still the same world, if I can go back soon, I can still make it to the thesis presentation in the evening, and the success or failure of my master's degree depends on tonight." Well... Now doesn't seem to be the time to think about this, if there are wild beasts entrenched here, and even the safety of life cannot be guaranteed, the degree will not matter. Yuelin was very dissatisfied with the new script that suddenly arrived.
In the original script, it should have been Yuelin who obtained a master's degree in one fell swoop after tonight's thesis presentation, so as to go to the peak of life, marry Bai Fumei, and walk to the peak of life.
You never know which one will come to visit first tomorrow or the accident, and a sudden accident will completely disrupt the life script that Yuelin has planned with great difficulty.
Taking advantage of the afterglow of the day, when the vision is not affected, Yuelin must find a way out of here, otherwise, after nightfall, even if there is no danger, just the darkness that can't see the five fingers can drive people crazy.
Yuelin looked around, as if it was the same scene in every direction, raised his head, and couldn't even see the trace of the sun, after turning around, Yuelin felt dazzled. Yuelin sighed, picked a direction and walked away.
There is no road in the world, but when there are more people walking, it becomes a road.
- Lu Xun
The words of a great man like Mr. Lu Xun are always thought-provoking.
I don't know how long I walked, maybe it was noon, maybe it was later, Yuelin had never felt so tired, the mental torture and physical tossing caused Yuelin's physical strength to lose at a rapid rate? The belly sounded like a war gong, accompanied by the subtle footsteps, and the ensemble played a song of survival.
"Or first... Eat something, go on... I don't have to wait until it gets dark, I'm going to die. Yuelin's voice was intermittent, his face was as bitter as a pig's liver, leaning on the bamboo behind him, and as he spoke, Yuelin lowered his head to find any food that could be eaten here.
Maybe it was the pity of the sky, Yuelin, who was unlucky for a morning, came and went, and he saw a few bamboo shoots growing under the bamboo trees not far away.
In ancient times, Cao Cao looked at Mei to quench his thirst, and now there is Yuelin to quench his hunger. The food is in front of him, Yuelin doesn't know where the strength comes from, at this moment, he seems to be possessed by Liu Xiang, he started, the speed is extremely fast, like an afterimage in the wind, the leaves do not stick to the clothes, in the blink of an eye, the bamboo shoots are in front of Yuelin's eyes, close, only one step away.
Just when Yuelin was about to take the bamboo shoots in her hands... Suddenly restrained by something, the next moment, the world in Yuelin's eyes quickly flipped, and when he came back to his senses, Yuelin found that he had been hung on the bamboo wood.
"Hey, look at what I found, someone will take the bait for such an obvious trap, you're stupid." The crisp female voice is as pleasant as a wind chime.
In the bamboo forest, a petite figure jumped out, looking just a six or seven-year-old girl, the pair of ruby pupils reflected Yuelin who was hanging on the bamboo, there was an undisguised evil taste under the eyes, and the rabbit on the head jumped up and down with the brisk steps.
The girl walked up to Yuelin, ignored Yuelin's dull expression, stretched out her pink hand, jumped up and poked Yuelin's face a few times, as if she was a child who got some fun toy.
"Rabbit... Rabbit ears... Are you a youkai? Yuelin came back to her senses and said in a daze.
"Don't you know me? No wonder you fell for such a humble trap, it seems that you are lucky, if you continue to go deeper, it will be more than just hanging up. ”
"As soon as I woke up, I found myself lying in the bamboo forest for some reason, can you put me down? I feel a little uncomfortable... It was as if I heard the footsteps of the Grim Reaper. Yuelin's face turned red, not because of excitement, but because of the phenomenon of her body flipping and causing the blood to flow backwards.
"Death, the ** ferryman? Don't worry, no matter how long the hand of hell is, it doesn't dare to reach out here easily, the owner of this place is..."Before the little rabbit demon finished speaking, Yuelin's pupils were already white. Apparently on the verge of passing out.
"Cut, it's really not fun." As he spoke, the little rabbit demon suddenly jumped three meters high, and his pink little hand turned into a hand knife, leaving an afterimage in the air, and with a click, Yuelin smashed to the ground with his face on the ground.
"It hurts." Before Yuelin could struggle, the little rabbit demon threw a few white objects, Yuelin caught them in a panic, and held them in his arms to see that they were the bamboo shoots he dreamed of.
"Eat, if you die in the bamboo forest here, Lord Yonglin will make trouble for me, you are so lucky, these are not ordinary bamboo shoots." The little rabbit demon looked at Yuelin's gobbling appearance and said contemptuously.
After a piece of bamboo shoot is eaten raw, it is not as dry as expected, but it is a little sweet, melts in the mouth, and the taste is very delicious. After eating, Yuelin obviously felt that the hunger in her stomach disappeared, followed by a swollen stomach, and after recovering from the pain of hunger, Yuelin looked at the girl in front of her seriously.
"Who are you?"
"My name is the emperor, I am the ruler of the Inaba clan, and my name is widely spread in the world, don't you know, are you an outsider?" As he spoke, the emperor puffed out his chest proudly, but no matter how hard his young body tried, he couldn't see the slightest outline.
"Outsiders? Do people often travel here? Yuelin was surprised.
Even if he was thinking about something quite rude in his heart, he still caught the important information hidden in the emperor's words.
"Almost, occasionally there will be people who ignore the Great Enchantment and hide in Gensokyo, but the location of the god is different, and the lost bamboo forest is a safer place, if the god hides in a flower field somewhere... Tsk, that's almost certain death. The emperor seemed to remember something, it was the news he saw one day, and it was said that someone had broken into there by mistake and became fertilizer for the woman to plant flowers.
"Can you get me out of here, then?"
"Impossible, if I give you food, you should be grateful for your virtue, and you dare to kick your nose in the face and make more excessive demands, human beings always have the humility of not knowing satisfaction, and it has never changed since ancient times." The emperor crossed his hands on his hips and looked disdainful.
To be honest, watching such a petite girl preach in the voice of an elder, Yuelin always felt a little disobedient.
"Hmph, if you're lucky, you might be able to get out of here before dark."
Before Yuelin could speak again, the emperor had already turned around and burrowed into the bamboo forest at a fast speed.
"Hey~ Even if it's a good deed, you can't give up halfway." Yuelin looked at the emperor's gradually disappearing figure, and his helpless voice echoed in this bamboo forest.
After waiting for a while, Yuelin could only struggle after seeing that the emperor was really leaving, thinking that the abrasions that fell from the bamboo wood would be very obstructive, but unexpectedly, I don't know when, those abrasions have healed.
Yuelin remembered what the emperor had said, and subconsciously wrapped the bamboo shoots in his hands, holding them in his arms like a treasure.
"Good things, if you have the opportunity, you must plant them in batches." Thinking about it, Yuelin continued to walk towards the depths of the bamboo forest.
When you are confused, think more about the beauty of the future, so that you have the motivation to move forward, and then... When despair comes, it is painful.
Fortunately, Yuelin's luck since seeing the emperor, seems to be a pair of invisible hands to pick the turntable, suddenly turned around, when the night fell, Yuelin vaguely saw the candlelight lit in the distance, the dead leaves of the bamboo forest, what came into view was an ancient and elegant courtyard, two lights in front of the door, illuminating the blue and white stone of the walkway. There was a thin layer of smoke floating beside the courtyard, like a beautiful woman covering her veil, which added a little mystery.
"It's really good luck that you can walk through the Lost Bamboo Forest alone with the strength of a mortal to get here."
The white-haired woman in the wing room in the courtyard, she seemed to sense something, and put down the medicine jar in her hand, as if talking to herself, and as if she was talking to someone.
The moment the sound fell, the corner of the rabbit ear slightly exposed by the half-open door quickly retracted behind the door as if it were a taboo.
