Chapter 5: Strange Jade
Facing the broken wall, Yu Xiaocao's heart was mixed, and tears almost welled up in his eyes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
His hands were clutching at the placket of his clothes, and his nails were almost pinched into the flesh.
This white feather! If I don't subdue you, I won't be called Yu Xiaocao!
She was so angry that she clenched one hand into a fist and slammed it down against the wall.
"Oops, it hurts, it hurts." I didn't think that the mud wall was still so hard, and my hand immediately swollen.
Caiyi saw that she was out, so she couldn't be afraid, tugged at the placket of her clothes, and asked about the situation, "Lord God, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay." She forced a smile and waved her hand.
I'm really going to cry stupidly.
Because she was full of anger before she finished venting, she couldn't help but raise her other hand, and wanted to punch again, but in the end she let it go.
Hey, what is it?
The place where she had been beaten with her fist actually cracked open, and the loose soil fell, revealing a piece of jade inside. The jade is round, bright white and crystalline, strung on a black line.
With a doubt, she pulled the jade out of the crack in the wall, blew away the dust, and put it closer to her eyes to take a closer look.
But Caiyi seemed to be very frightened when she saw this jade, and hid behind her, and her eyes did not dare to look at this jade.
Is there anything wrong with this jade?
"Caiyi, what are you afraid of?"
"This jade has a powerful aura, and I can't help but be afraid. I think it's weird, too. Previously, this feeling was only felt when you were close to the wall, but now it seems that the feeling of oppression emitted by this wall actually comes from this piece of jade. ”
"What do you mean—"
Caiyi nodded, "The real sealing place of this monster should be this piece of jade." ”
Okay, it turns out that Bai Yu was sealed in jade, no wonder the cave just now was a jade cave.
Yu Xiaocao squeezed the jade hard, and her teeth gurgled.
This piece of jade fell into her hands, Bai Yu, you are ready to be captured.
Caiyi still timidly hid behind her. She cautiously looked up at Yu Xiaocao, saw that she was disheveled, and didn't understand what was happening. Then he tugged at the skirt of Xiaocao with his hand.
"Kami-sama, have you subdued the youkai?"
Yu Xiaocao had not yet recovered from the previous setback, so he wrapped his coat in embarrassment and shook his head lonely.
"Let's go, let's go back. Now that this piece of jade is in my hands, and the future will be long, I don't believe that I can't accept him. After speaking, he casually hung the jade around his neck.
Sai nodded shyly.
In the next few days, Yu Xiaocao was busy cleaning the temple, wiping the statues, and removing the weeds in the courtyard, and gradually left the matter of Bai Yu behind. She didn't know where to dig out a box of old paper, so she thought of a way to paste it into the hole in the window, hoping to block it when the wind rose. Not to mention, after her such a hard work, the temple is much cleaner and tidy, and it is no longer the same painting style as Lanruo Temple in "A Chinese Ghost Story".
When doing this, Yu Xiaocao didn't understand, this temple was broken like this, why did Nuwa let them guard it? And that old woman, don't you panic when you come here to incense? Aren't you afraid of hell?
In the past few days, she has become very familiar with Caiyi and Yunfang. When she was bored, she quietly listened to them tell interesting stories about Nuwa. Yu Xiaocao knew in her heart that they missed Nuwa very much. But how did the great god Nuwa think of letting her be this god? Where did she go, is she really willing to leave her colorful clothes and wait for her in a lonely and lonely way?
Angstrom...... If it comes, it will be safe. She decided not to guess anymore and continued to concentrate on gluing the windows.
Who knows, a few days later, there was a heavy rain, which made everything Yu Xiaocao do in the rain. The paper could not resist the attack of the rain at all, and after a short time it rotted into a mess and fell to the ground, and the originally crumbling windows and door panels were also blown off by the strong wind, and the yard was full of water, so that fish could be raised. This sudden change made the whole temple return to its original state again. No, it's worse than it was.
Yun Flip and Caiyi shivered in the corner.
Yu Xiaocao stood in the rain, witnessing everything happening, but she had no ability to stop it, she felt very helpless. Hopeless tears welled up in the eyes, and the living rain slipped silently.
Why does she still cry so much?
Yu Xiaocao looked down on herself in her heart.
How could she be so incompetent everywhere?
Yu Xiaocao was unwilling to accept such a self. However, if she doesn't accept it, what can she do?
The feeling of powerless despair was so deep that it enveloped her and overwhelmed her. She looked up, as if she felt that every raindrop that fell on her face, with deep malice, was laughing at her.
"I'm really not fit for this." She laughed at herself coldly.
"Do you know now? However, it is too late to regret it now. As I said a long time ago, if you can be a god, the sows will go up the tree. Where you came from and where you go back. ”
It was the voice of the white feather.
Still so contemptuous, it came clearly in my ears.
She came back to her senses and glanced at the jade on her chest in surprise. By the way, I'm almost forgetting that the jade she wears has this guy sealed in it.
"Your uncle! You're all sealed, what's the point! You can do it! His words always annoyed her for some reason, but this time it was different, it was anger.
Bai Yu probably didn't expect that she would yell at him like a girl, but she didn't respond.
"God, you can go down! You just bully me! I won't throw in the towel so easily! I'll show you this god! She roared in the rain, venting her unwillingness and humiliation.
Growling tired, she crouched down, curled up in a ball, and hugged herself tightly. I don't know if it's because her roar even scared God, but the rain is slowly getting lighter.
"Come into the house, if you die of illness, what will you do?" Bai Yu's tone was actually a little concerned.
yes, I've got to be fine. Bai Yu's words reminded her.
Yu Xiaocao stood up, wiped the rain and tears from her face, and regained her spirits.
***********
On the second day, the rain finally stopped, and the whole temple was in shambles, and the three of them had no sleep all night.
Caiyi and Yu Xiaocao were busy tidying up the temple, and the clouds went up the mountain to hunt hares.
Yu Xiaocao is the god of this temple, a god eats dried steamed buns all day long, and they have no face when it is passed out. And yesterday's incident was a big blow to Xiaocao, in order to improve Yu Xiaocao's food, and in order to make her mood better, Yun turned over and went up the mountain alone to hunt some hares. So when the clouds come back, Caiyi will stew the hare and give it to Yu Xiaocao to open meat.
Finally finished renovating the temple, Yu Xiaocao was so tired that he fell on the bed and couldn't move.
Caiyi stretched out her arms to reach the teapot on the table, poured a glass of water, and carefully handed the cup to her.
"Lord, take a sip of water."
Yu Xiaocao hurriedly got up, took the cup, and was moved, but he didn't take a sip.
They didn't blame her for being so bad.
"Caiyi, don't call me a god-sama, call me sister." In the face of such a cute child in Caiyi, no matter how unhappy it is, it will all disappear.
Caiyi smiled shyly, revealing her white teeth, "Well, sister." ”
"Caiyi, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'm not as powerful as the god of Nuwa, and I can't do anything. ”
"Sister, it's okay. You are mortal, you have no supernatural powers, and we don't blame you. And my sister is now the owner here, how can we blame our master? ”
Caiyi, Yunxuan, thank you. Yu Xiaocao clenched the cup tightly with both hands and meditated in her heart.
At this time, the sun had already set on the mountain, and the sunset on the opposite side cast a golden light, which illuminated the hut in gold.
Outside, there was a sound of the door opening, followed by the childish voice of the clouds, which seemed to be full of joy.
"Caiyi, Caiyi, I've hunted a hare, hurry up and make a delicious meal for the gods."
Hearing this, Caiyi was obviously also very happy, and said with a smile, "Sister, the clouds are back, and you will have something delicious in a while." After saying that, he trotted all the way and went out to meet Yunchui.
Inexplicably, Yu Xiaocao was also in a cheerful mood. She put down the cup in her hand and followed quickly. I saw that under the sunset, two immature children were each carrying a hare, laughing happily, full of satisfaction and happiness.
"Sister, look, how fat this hare is." Caiyi was a little struggling to lift the rabbit towards Yu Xiaocao, but the hare in her hand unexpectedly kicked her hind legs, which frightened her and screamed again and again.
This scene caused Yu Xiaocao to laugh involuntarily.
How much they are like a family now.
Yu Xiaocao couldn't help but think, it feels good to have a family.
"What a beautiful sunset."
Just when she was immersed in the atmosphere of happiness and couldn't extricate herself, Bai Yu's voice brought her back to her senses.
Bai Yu's tone was not as arrogant as before, with a little loneliness and a little sadness. This unusual tone made Yu Xiaocao curious, and looked in the direction of the setting sun.
"Wow, it's the capital!"
The large trees next to the temple, which were originally lush and towering, were blown to the ground by yesterday's wind, revealing the scenery outside the mountain.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Yu Xiaocao's face was hazy. From a high vantage point, Kyoto at the foot of the mountain is shrouded in a golden glow of the sunset. Even though it was evening, you could still see the horse-drawn carriages, hawkers, and bustling bazaars that passed through the city—this was the capital of the legendary emperor, and it was really different. Against the backdrop of the mountains and the setting sun in the distance, it makes this imperial city even more magnificent.
The scenery in front of him made Yu Xiaocao forget about the festival with Bai Yu for a while.
"Bai Yu, did you see it?" Such a beautiful scene, she wanted to share it with others, and Bai Yu happened to be the person next to her, as long as she opened her mouth softly, he could hear it.
Suddenly, Yu Xiaocao felt that this feeling was amazing.
"It's just an ordinary view of the mortal world, so why make a fuss." Although Bai Yu's tone was full of disdain, he was no longer as indifferent as before.
It had been more than 5,000 years, and it was the first time he had seen the outside world, the first time he had spoken to a mortal.
Five thousand years ago, it was a magical era long before the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasty - the ancient era. At that time, the chaos of heaven and earth was beginning to open, and various gods and demons descended into the world, and many myths and legends were interpreted. God is the absolute ruler of that age; And the demon, although it can't be compared with the gods, but it also has a lot of power. Bai Yu is the demon who appeared in that era. At that time, in his eyes, mortals were fragile and existed like ants, and gods were nothing more than mortals with divine powers, so he was not afraid at all. At that time, he was infinitely beautiful.
How many times has he been on the top of the mountain alone, enjoying the beauty of the world. Today's sunset is actually millions of points inferior to that of ancient times. But because he hadn't seen him for too long, he couldn't help but express his praise.
And this casual language won the resonance of Yu Xiaocao.
He doesn't like vibes.
For 5,000 years, he has become accustomed to living alone and feeling alone.
"Less pretending, you must think it's spectacular, right? Well, human beings are really great enough to build such magnificent buildings. Moreover, human beings are also amazing, no matter how difficult it is, they will try to survive. I'm going to try to stay alive too! Yu Xiaocao unconsciously began to reveal her heart to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu was silent for a while.
"Bai Yu, have you been sealed for a long time. As long as you let me be subdued, I'll let you out and let you back to your free body, how about it? Yu Xiaocao hasn't forgotten her business yet, and uses freedom to encourage Bai Yu, in fact, how could she know how to lift Bai Yu's seal.
This made Yu Xiaocao proud, but it caused Bai Yu to snort coldly.
"You'd better mind yourself, stupid woman!"
Oh, I'll go, why are you still so arrogant! Yu Xiaocao saw that the warm card he played was not effective, and he was instantly a little annoyed, "Why do you look down on me." "This monster's mouth is too poisonous, Yu Xiaocao really can't wait to smash the jade and deflat.
"Because this seal was imposed by your uncle and myself, you are a mere mortal, can you break it?" When the sun finally sets, the whole world goes dark.
Bai Yu's cold words echoed in Xiaocao's mind.
Huh? What's going on?
In the face of Xiaocao's repeated questions, Bai Yu seemed to disappear and did not answer.
