Verse 21: Letters from Obsession (1)

Previous Chapter

Since that night, the two have tacitly agreed not to talk more. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Gu Li may be trying not to stimulate her, and Ning Siyi purely thinks that some things can't be solved every day, and it will only increase her troubles, so it's better to eat and play, and do what you should do!

I must admit that she has a bit of a broken jar mentality, but when she learned that her fate and future were all in the hands of the god of fate, she had nothing to think about.

At least so far, she has no worries about food and clothing, has tiles to cover her head, and is still alive and well, so let's leave the future to later! I have to say that this kind of Ah Q spirit has greatly boosted her morale, at least she won't be unable to eat for those problems that haven't been shadowed.

It's raining in G City today, the rain is not strong, but the sky is not getting better, and it is estimated that it will not stop for a while. Gu Liwo didn't know what he was doing in the room, and Ning Siyi was sorting out the books on the first floor.

There are a lot of books in the library, many of which are old, the paper is yellow and even brittle, and some of the paper is glued together, so each book needs to be checked page by page, and if there is any damage, find a way to repair it, which is her job. For most people, it's a boring job, but for the withdrawn, it's the opposite, she enjoys the process of working, not only learning useful knowledge, but also calming her mind and occasionally discovering something interesting.

At this moment, for example, she found a letter in an old book!

The letter was sandwiched between the pages, and she saw it as soon as she opened it. The envelope was an old brown paper envelope, with nothing written on the cover, no postmark, and the corners were hairy, crumpled, as if they had been pinched into a ball of paper and flattened.

Ning Siyi picked up the envelope, and she could conclude that there was a letter in the envelope.

She picked up the envelope and flipped it to the back, the mouth of the envelope was actually glued to the mouth, and there was no trace of being opened, which completely aroused her curiosity. Truth be told, if the letter had been read early in the morning, she might not have been interested in reading it. But once he found out that it had not been opened, and he would be the first to know the contents, he immediately felt a sense of excitement that the secret was about to be revealed.

She felt that the envelope was like the apple tree in the Garden of Eden, and the bright red fruit on it exuded a fatal attraction at all times, tempting the naΓ―ve Eve to pick it.

It's really itchy.

Ahem, I have to say that human curiosity and desire for knowledge are more directly reflected in women than men, and there is a basis for it.

The letter is to be opened, the question is whether she wants to tell Gu Li?

Ning Siyi looked up at the second floor, and Gu was very entangled in the direction of the room. Gu Li said that she could flip through the books in the library's collection at will, and the letters sandwiched in the pages of the books maybe, probably, should also belong to the scope of what she could read at will, but it didn't seem good to open the letters privately without telling Gu Li.

The entanglement didn't last long, and it was only a short time before she decided, let's dismantle it first!

She tiptoed back to her room with the envelope, and when she passed the corridor on the second floor, she couldn't help but relax her breath, feeling a little like a thief. Back in the room, she pulled out a knife and carefully scraped it along the seal, the paste on the seal was old and not strong, and it was quickly finished.

When she opened the envelope, she was in the same mood as when she opened the university admission letter, excited and curious. When she opened the envelope and looked inside, she saw a folded piece of paper lying inside, and she stretched out two fingers to take it out.

The letter paper is not big, about half the size of A4 paper, it is folded into one-fourth of the size, very light and thin, the paper is yellowed, at first glance it is full of history, just like the ancestral house deed kept by the old man in the countryside, and it will be broken into slag with a little force. She held her breath and carefully spread out the letter, secretly guessing its contents.

Is it a letter from home that was not delivered?

Or a love letter that didn't come to fruition?

As a result, it turns out that she thinks too much, and this is simply a blank slate!

The letter paper was empty, not to mention the words, not even a drop of ink stars.

Sure enough, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and the curiosity is better not to be too exuberant, no! She was smacked in the face.

How boring was the original owner of the envelope to do this? It's purely for posterity to play. Excited for her, Ning Siyi pouted, folded the letter paper casually and put it back into the envelope, and the preparations were returned to their original places.

When he went downstairs, he happened to meet Gu Li, who was out of the customs to forage for food, he nestled on the sofa in the hall on the first floor without any image, holding a plate of cream cookies in his hand, and when he saw her coming down from upstairs, he opened his mouth and instructed her: "Siyi, drink black tea today, thank you!" ”

"・・・・・・" boss wants to drink black tea, of course she has to do it, she walked to the original bookshelf, put the letter back in the original book, and then asked casually: Does black tea need to be added with honey? ”

"Half a scoop is enough." Gu Li didn't seem to notice her actions, still enjoying his favorite cream cookies. I really don't know how a big man likes this kind of little dessert that only a little girl likes, and lets her make it every once in a while.

She's about to go from being a librarian to a full-time pastry chef and cook.

In fact, in the fifth space, as long as Gu Li thinks about it, he can eat different dim sum at any time, and she has made a lot of different dim sum in the past half a month, and when she wants to eat it, it will be good to conjure it up.

But Gu Li later told her that the ability to control the reappearance of matter has a limit on the number of times, and it cannot be used indiscriminately, not to mention that she is not there, so why waste her ability.

Ning Siyi agrees! It's better to be freshly baked than food that has been digested and turned back. God knows how the process from disappearing to reappearing came about, she would rather work hard every day to cook and make snacks, at least she won't feel awkward when she eats.

As for the raw materials, Gu Li said that she is a person from the real world, in order to ensure that she is related to the real world and not be affected by the fifth space and be rejected by the original, she has to go to the outside world every half a month to brush up on her sense of existence, and the task of buying ingredients naturally falls on her head.

When she came out with the black tea with honey, Gu Li just wiped out the cookies, and tasted the teacup with inexhaustible taste: "It tastes great, it's a pity that the portion is not enough." ”

looked at the plate that didn't even have biscuit residues left, and Ning Siyi didn't bother to complain about him.

Gu Li likes sweets very much, whether it is dim sum or drinks, no sweetness or joy, thanks to the fact that she learned a lot of dim sum and desserts when she was working in the pastry house when she was studying, otherwise how could she satisfy his sweet and greasy girl's heart.

After enjoying the afternoon tea, Gu Li seemed to suddenly remember something, and said to her: "By the way, Siyi, I have some things to deal with, and I will go out for a few days tomorrow, you can stay and watch the house." ”

"・・・・・・" Madan! Can you not say something so scary every time in such a casual tone?

"How many days?"

"Three days, if it's fast." The old god replied on the ground.

She nodded, three days is not a long time, but it is a little uncomfortable to leave her alone to watch the house, especially the hometown library is located in the middle of nowhere, the surrounding area is deserted, the whole barren mountains and mountains, every time night falls, the surroundings are so quiet that there is not even the sound of insects, she is indeed a little timid to stay here alone.

Gu Li seemed to see her uncomfortable, and teased: "Siyi, you shouldn't be scared." ”

"No・・・・・・ no, I'm just worried about what to do if I get a thief." Ning Siyi unnaturally turned his head and made excuses lamely.

"Hehe, you forgot? This is the fifth space, and no one can enter without my permission. ”

・・・・・・ "Okay, she almost forgot about it, Ning Siyi was so blocked that she couldn't speak, and silently cleaned up the cups and dishes."

Looking at her trying to suppress her depressed face, Gu Li almost held back her laughter to the point of internal injury, oops, the sulking Xiao Siyi was too funny, her brows were furrowed like a little old lady, her teeth were biting her lower lip, she looked quite serious, and she was actually alive and well off the little Jingba who was abandoned on the street by her master.

Finally suppressing the smile at the corner of his lips, he cleared his throat and explained seriously: "During my absence, the enchantment of the fifth space will be fully opened, you must not leave the library, otherwise you will be lost in the edge of the fifth space and will not be able to come back." ”

Ning Siyi didn't know why, but he also understood the seriousness of what Gu Li said, and nodded solemnly and agreed: "I won't go out, don't worry." ”

"That's good, if you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can communicate more with the dryads, and there will be unexpected surprises." Gu Li smiled very kindly, but Ning Siyi always felt that the unexpected surprise he said was definitely not a good thing.

Speaking of the tree spirit in the yard, she is still quite afraid, since the blue flowers that bloomed all over the canopy that night, she has maintained a state of blooming, the blue petals fall with the wind every day, standing under the tree can easily get a petal baptism, the absolute artistic conception is full. It's a pity that Ning Siyi, who was fortunate enough to watch its feeding process, has been listed as a highly dangerous object by her, not to mention communication, even if she usually wants to walk against the root of the wall when she passes by the flower house, the farther away from it the better, lest one accidentally become fertilizer.

After chatting casually and explaining some trivial things to her, Gu Li Shi Ran went back to the room, and Ning Siyi returned to her post to continue the repair work just now.
