Chapter 5: Winter

Winter is a disaster for the residents of Soul Street. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The cold temperature accelerates the loss of the spirit in the soul, and the soul with low spiritual pressure can no longer make up for the consumption of the spirit child by drinking water alone, and must eat the spirit food made by the spirit child, so Ito Ryoji and Imadehira and Sanada Emi are shivering from the cold every day, but they are helpless.

There is already a shortage of food in the hanging area, and the price of food has increased in winter, so they simply have no extra money to buy food.

As time goes by, the temperature gets cooler and colder, and finally it is the coldest time, after a heavy snowfall, the world is covered in white, and the cold invades everyone.

Even Koiji and Natsuhiko, who were fourth-rank spiritual pressurers, felt the pervasive chill, and Rukia was pale.

As for Ryoji Ito, the three of them are getting weaker and weaker, and Aisani Koiji saw their appearance and gritted his teeth and made a decision.

He shouted to Natsuhiko and Rukia to leave the house, stood outside the house, and said to the two, "If there is no more food, Ryoji Ito, Iidehei they will starve to death." ”

Rukia frowned and said, "But where are we going to find food?" ”

Asai Koiji looked into the distance and said, "I can only steal it." ”

"Steal?"

Natsuhiko's eyes widened as he looked at Koiji Asani.

The latter nodded and said, "Yes, this is the only way, we can't let them starve to death." ”

Rukia asked, "Where to steal it?" ”

Asai Koiji whispered: "I've been stepping on the spot for the past few days, and I found that the Murata family has made a lot of steamed buns, we can go and steal a few and come back." ”

Rukia thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we go and ask for a few first?" Maybe they'll give it to us. ”

Asai Lianji waved his hand and said, "This is impossible, the Murata family is relatively wealthy in the Xujiao District, but it is only a little surplus, how can it be given to us." ”

Rukia glanced at the hungry Ryoji Ito and the others, and said, "Then we can only steal it." ”

Koiji Asai said, "

Rukia asked, "What do you need us to do?" ”

Asai Koiji said, "I'll talk about it when we get there." ”

The three of them went out of the house, and when they arrived at the head of the village, Asan Jing pointed to the house not far away and said, "That's Murata's house, and the room on the right is the kitchen, and the buns have been steamed and are in the kitchen." There is a window in the kitchen, but the window is relatively small, and only Xia Yan can enter it. I'll lure them out at the main entrance in a while, Natsuhiko, you go to the side window and climb in and steal the bun out, Rukia, you answer him outside, wait for my signal. ”

Xia Yan and Rukia looked at each other and said, "Okay." ”

The two of them walked under the kitchen window and peeked inside, where a woman was busy in the kitchen and gestured to Assanjing.

Asai nodded and took a deep breath, and when he arrived at the gate, he raised his palm and slapped the wooden door.

Not long after, the wooden door opened, and a man appeared at the gate, looked at Asai Koiji and said, "Why are you?" ”

Asai Koiji is very famous in the hanging area, living with several orphans, fighting fiercely, and others dare not provoke him.

Asai Koiji looked at each other and pleaded, "Uncle, I don't know if I can give me some food, my younger brothers and sisters are about to starve to death." ”

When the man heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "Whether you are hungry or not, it doesn't matter if you starve to death, hurry up and leave." ”

Asai Koiji was still pleading, "Please, just give me a little food." ”

The man waved his hand dissatisfiedly and scolded: "Hurry up and get out, don't give, don't give." ”

Ashani immediately grabbed the man's arm, and the man wanted to push Ashani away, but Ashani hugged the man's arm and didn't let go for a moment.

And at this time, the man's wife was alarmed and came outside the house to ask what was going on.

At this moment, Xia Yan pushed open the window, and Rukia squatted down, hugged Xia Yan's legs, and lifted it up violently.

Xia Yan put his hands on the window, crawled towards the house, entered the house, jumped out of the window, and walked towards the steamed bun pot.

Lift the lid of the pot, and the white buns inside exude an enticing aroma.

"Ahh

Xia Yan reached out to get the bun, but he was scalded and withdrew his hand directly.

Xia Yan felt a little hot, but he didn't give up, endured the heat, grabbed a few buns, put them in his arms, and ran towards the window.

The window was relatively high, but Natsuhiko brought a stool, stepped on the stool and leaned out, and handed the bun in his arms to Rukia.

After Rukia took it, Xia Yan went to climb the window, but the stool was relatively low, and Xia Yan was also short, if he wanted to climb out of the window, he had to hold it up, and with this support, his footsteps kicked down the chair and made a clanging sound.

"What sound?"

The wife of the family heard the voice and hurriedly returned to the house, at this time Xia Yan had just climbed up the window.

Seeing Xia Yan's movements, the other party immediately understood what was happening, and screamed loudly: "Someone stole something." ”

"Stealing?"

When the man heard this, he glared at Asai Koiji, and said angrily: "Okay, it turns out that you are trying to drag me down and let others steal, little bastard, see that I don't kill you." ”

The man said, knocked Asani to the ground with a kick, punched and kicked him, Asani has a fourth-class spiritual pressure, activating the spirit son, how can he be afraid of the other party?

But Asai Renji knew that he was stealing something, and he was wrong, so he didn't resist, just curled up and was pressed to the ground and beaten by him.

In the kitchen, the hostess wanted to catch Natsuhiko, but Natsuhiko jumped out of the window directly, and after landing on the ground, she ran out of the corner with Rukia, and then the two saw the beaten Asai Koiji.

When the man saw Natsuhiko and Rukia, he shouted, "Don't run, put your things down." ”

As he spoke, he was about to chase the two, but Asai hugged his legs and shouted, "Run." ”

Xia Yan was still a little hesitant, but Rukia was calmer and shouted, "Let's go." ”

Natsuhiko smiled and ran back to the house with Rukia, and the man saw that he couldn't catch up, so he continued to beat Koiji Asani.

Back in the house, Rukia took out the buns in her arms, four in total, exuding white gas.

Seeing the buns, Ryoji Ito and Emi Imadeira Sanada surrounded them, and Rukia picked up the buns and handed them to the three of them, one for each person.

The three of them got the buns, grabbed the buns and put them to their mouths to nibble, although they were vegetarian buns, but the rich fragrance spread in the room, making people salivate.

The three of them gulped down the buns, and there was still one bun left, and Rukia handed the bun to Xia Yan and said, "You can eat this." ”

Xia Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't need to eat steamed buns, this steamed bun is still eaten by Sister Rukia." ”

Rukia said loudly, "You stole this bun, hurry up and eat it." ”

If it was Xia Yan in the past, he would definitely listen to Rukia's words, but this time he was very resolute and said, "I don't eat it." ”

Rukia was a little angry, but Natsuhiko kept saying that she wouldn't eat it, so she could only put the buns aside.

At this time, the door curtain opened, and Asai Koiji entered the room, his nose and face were swollen, and his clothes were torn.

Rukia immediately stood up and asked, "Koiji, are you okay?" ”

Asai Renji waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just some skin trauma." ”

Seeing this scene, Xia Yan said apologetically: "Brother Lianji, if I hadn't kicked down the chair, I wouldn't have been discovered." ”

Asai Koiji rubbed Natsuhiko's head and said, "It's okay, it's enough for you to be able to complete the task." ”

Rukia immediately said, "There is also a bun, Koiji, you can eat it." ”

Lianji looked at the bun, waved his hand, and said, "I don't need it, let's give it to Xia Yan." ”

Xia Yan shook his head and said, "I don't need it either." ”

Rukia looked at the bun and said, "What about this bun?" ”

Ryoji Ito said, "Each of us ate a steamed bun, which was enough, and this steamed bun was not needed. Xia Yan, big brother Lianji, Rukia, the three of you can eat. ”

Emi Sanada also nodded and said, "You can eat it, you brought this bun back." ”

Lianji thought about it, but said: "The three of us can absorb Reiko, although the winter is harder, but we can still deal with the past, this bun, let's leave a three people from Ryoji Ito." ”

Although the three of them wanted to eat this bun, they finally decided to stay.

Compared with the three of them, Ryoji Ito, who can't take the initiative to absorb Lingzi, needs these spiritual foods to fill their stomachs even more.

Ryoji Ito's eyes were rosy with emotion, and they wanted to say something, but they were stopped by Aisani Koiji and ate the food in their hands with tears.

Although the surrounding environment is still cold, Xia Yan feels the warmth that he has not seen for a long time, and the people who help each other make Xia Yan feel at home.
