"What's the matter, can't you choose," Sheng Xia looked at Xiaofeng, who was crumpled into a ball of buns, and lightly tapped its petals with some amusement, "Do you want me to help you?" ”

Hearing this, Xiaofeng immediately raised his little "head", his bulging little eyes were full of surprise, and he looked at Midsummer expectantly: "What is the best way to do it in Xiaxia?" ”

"Half and half," Midsummer deliberately sold a small pass, without explaining the matter clearly.

Really. Xiao Feng's attention shifted to the topic she said, and Xiao Yezi kept waving: "What, what half and half?" "I can't help but laugh at that impatience.

"You can use half of it first, and keep half of it for me to refine into an elixir." Midsummer explained with a smile, and as for going to the place that the student had just told them to look for, she didn't mention it again.

After all, Xiaoqing had already said just now, this ink purple can be met but not sought.

Xiao Feng looked at the ink purple that the two small leaves in his hand were a little unacceptable, and then looked at Midsummer's serious smile, and finally made up his mind.

I saw that it carefully took out a small blade as thin as a cicada's wing from its own space, and couldn't do it after gesturing at Mo Zi for a long time, and finally couldn't stand it in the middle of summer, so I helped Mo Zi and finally divided Mo Zi into two halves.

Of course, these two halves were carefully wrapped by Xiaofengzi and put into his own space, and as for the powder that was accidentally left behind, it was naturally cleaned up by Xiaofeng.

Midsummer: "·······"

Once again, she saw what true preciousness is.

"Xia Xia, let's go to Shuyuan Peak, the north slope, the bamboo forest, about 100 meters to the east." Xiao Feng looked up at the little "head", and her eyes were full of seriousness.

Midsummer was stunned for a moment, this tone, this pause, and this exact words, well, she can prove that Xiaofeng listened to every word she said to the student very seriously just now!

"It's too late, it's getting dark, or we'll go early tomorrow morning." Midsummer suggests, after all, it is true that it is dark at night, although there are no wild monsters, but the illumination range of the nightlight is limited, and it is still inconvenient.

Xiaofeng was disappointed for a moment, but after thinking about it, he agreed, it was indeed too dark at night, and the ink purple was also black, under the cover of the night, if one accidentally missed it, it would regret dying.

The night was darker, and the lights were brighter in the darkness of the night.

Small stalls have occupied all the space on both sides of the street, and the number of pedestrians has gradually increased, but it is not crowded, and everyone is very leisurely or strolling, or stopping, or selecting.

Midsummer took Xiaofeng and Xiaoqing to be among them, with the previous adventure, the interest of several people was quite high, and Xiaofeng couldn't wait to stick his eyes to those stalls.

"Hey, what's that?" When I raised my eyes in the middle of summer, I saw leaves of various shapes, sizes, and colors on the stalls not far away, and I couldn't help but talk to myself curiously.

When Xiaofeng and Xiaoqing heard Sheng Xia say this, they immediately turned their eyes to the place where she was looking, and they all showed puzzled expressions.

"Xia Xia, it won't just be a place to sell beautiful leaves." Although Xiao Feng was a little disappointed that it was not a precious herb, he still replied tentatively.

"I don't know, let's go check it out." Midsummer shook her head and simply proposed to go over and have a look.

Midsummer squatted in front of the stall and picked up the leaves one by one to watch, and it was then that she realized that there was a small poem written on each leaf.

"It's unbearable to give away, and it's a good time to sleep."

"The darker moonlight is half a family, and the Beidou is dry and the Nandou is oblique."

······

Moreover, the leaves are much harder than the ones that have just been plucked from the tree, and they are obviously processed.

She reacted immediately and said in surprise; "Uncle, are you a bookmark?"

The old man gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Girl, your eyes are really sharp, you are the first to guess it yourself." ”

Midsummer also smiled, not only smiled directly at the uncle's praise, but also praised the uncle by the way: "Uncle, your craftsmanship is also the best I have ever seen." ”

Midsummer is not an exaggeration, the old man's craftsmanship is really good, after passing through his hands, not only did not lose the original characteristics of the leaves, but also lifelike, as if it had just been plucked from the leaves, and it looked vibrant, as if it was still breathing freely at the moment.

"Haha, girl, if you like it, choose more, these little poems on the leaves were all written by those students during the Lantern Festival last year." The old man was very happy to appreciate his craftsmanship in the middle of summer, and introduced him more enthusiastically.

"Lantern Festival?" Midsummer was stunned, she hadn't heard of this festival for a long time, she didn't expect it to be here, but this lantern festival was the one she knew, or ······

The old man didn't know the ups and downs of his mood at this time in the middle of summer, and when he saw her muttering, he thought that she was also interested in this festival, and he was willing to explain to her: "Yes, the Lantern Festival, this is a unique festival in our book town, every year······ Speaking of which, this year's Lantern Festival is coming soon, and the book town will ······ then."

"Xia Xia, why are you depressed?" Since I just heard the old man introduce the Lantern Festival, the mood in midsummer has not been high, and Xiaofeng has also noticed that something is wrong.

Midsummer shook his head: "It's okay, I'm just thinking about whether to stay for the Lantern Festival, after all, the old man also said just now that the Lantern Festival is half a month later, but ······"

Although the words are not finished, Xiaofeng, who knows the meaning of the matter, naturally understands, but it doesn't understand why Xia Xia is distressed, since she wants to stay, then stay, if she doesn't want to, then don't stay, isn't it a very simple thing?

Sheng Xia raised his hand and touched Xiaofeng's little leaves, looking at its big round eyes full of puzzlement, smiled, and directly changed the topic: "Do you still want to go shopping?" ”

As soon as Xiaofeng saw that Sheng Xia asked him about shopping, he immediately put the question he had just asked behind, and said with a smile: "Yes, I heard that there is a century-old talent shop next to Shuyuan Academy, and the dim sum there is particularly delicious, Xia Xia, you take me to try it." ”

Xiao Feng has been thinking about this for a long time, but Xia Xia has been very busy, and there is no time to bring it out, now that there is an opportunity, it must taste it, not to mention that it has just seen all the items on the stall, and there is nothing it wants.

"Okay, let's go now." Speaking of Midsummer, he took Xiaofeng and Xiaoqing to the destination happily.

It wasn't until late at night that Midsummer took Xiaofeng, who was still unsatisfied, and Xiaoqing back to the inn together, and at the same time the backpack was stuffed with large bags of snacks, which they specially prepared to eat on the road.

Early the next morning, before dawn, they got up in the middle of summer, yes, including summer, Nanmu and Limu.

It turned out that when Midsummer came back last night, he told them what they had encountered at the stall, and he still remembered Nanmu's stunned and incredulous look, and he even stammered when he spoke.

"Sister, sister, you, what you said is true?" Don't just want to stay in Book Town for a few more days, so find a reason to send him away.

Looking at Nanmu's suspicious little eyes, Sheng Xia was really not polite, and slapped him directly on the head: "What do you think, if I want to stay, do I need to find such a reason?" "That look of you will not listen to me made Nanmu immediately raise his hands in surrender.

Really, if his sister said that she wanted to stay, and other people didn't know, his brother would definitely not object, of course, he wouldn't object, so was the slap he just received in vain?

And if that's what his sister did, then she was really ······ last night

Nanmu felt that he had some internal injuries, he remembered that street, those stalls, he had been going back and forth no less than 4 times, why didn't he have this luck.

Seeing him like this, Midsummer on the side immediately understood what he was thinking, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "What do you think, my luck is not your luck." ”

It turned out that when he was explaining Mo Zi to everyone in the middle of summer, Xiao Feng on the side suddenly added, saying that this Mo Zi is also effective for some cubs, and it can increase the probability of their mutation.

Indeed, Nanmu, who was reminded like this, also remembered it, and immediately recovered his vitality, sure enough, with his sister having meat to eat, he must hug his sister's thick thighs well.

······

"Sister, shall we leave now?" Nanmu looked at Sheng Xia who was standing in front of the door of the room and asked.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Midsummer nodded: "Let's go, and strive to come back early." ”

Yes, they still plan to leave Book Town today.

"Sister, is this the way?" Nanmu looked at the path around him that was almost overwhelmed with weeds and said with some uncertainty, didn't he say that there were still people going back and forth before? How does it feel like no one has ever walked this road before?

Midsummer spread out the white cloth in his hand and carefully compared, and nodded affirmatively: "That's it, that's right, you should be there by turning the forest in front of you." ”

This route was inquired about by a woodcutter who is said to be a frequent activity at Shuyuan Peak with a snack in the middle of summer last night.

As soon as he heard that it was almost here, everyone was shocked, and Nanmu didn't ask anymore, as if the doubts he had just now did not exist.

"About 100 meters to the east. Then we should be in the west of the Yuzhu Forest. "Midsummer was standing in a bush at this moment, gesturing incessantly, and muttering to himself.

"Little sister, it should be here." I heard Midsummer talk about the general direction before the summer, and now I see that she is constantly calculating, and she also helps.

Midsummer also nodded: "Yes, it should be this range, then let's find it together." ”

On the way here, Xiaofeng had already seized the time to popularize Mozi with everyone.

Ink purple: Stone-like stems, hard, black all over, without any branches; It may grow in the soil, it may grow on the surface of the soil; It is possible for any environment to grow, and no environment can grow, everything is based on the will of God; The number of grows varies, there may be only one or several.

Midsummer: "······"

Summer: "······"

Nanmu: "······"

Limu: "······"

So where exactly does it grow?

The crowd first searched on the ground, but because it was a bush, most of them were low trees, and some of them had long, sharp thorns, which greatly increased the difficulty of the crowd's search.

"Yikes!" Midsummer suddenly exclaimed and quickly retracted his hand.

"What's wrong, sister!?"

"What's wrong with my little sister!?"

"Sister!?"

As soon as Xiaxia, Nanmu, and Limu heard the voice, they immediately asked in unison, and immediately rushed to Midsummer's side.

While taking out a wooden handkerchief from his backpack and pressing it on the palm of the barbed hand, Sheng Xia replied to everyone: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that my hand was accidentally cut." ”

Summer is the closest, so he arrived as soon as possible, he first looked Midsummer up and down to make sure that she was really okay, and then looked at the palm that had been wrapped in a handkerchief, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and his eyes flashed with worry: "Is it serious?" ”

Sheng Xia shook his head and said with a smile: "Small injury, it doesn't hurt anymore." ”

Yes, since being covered with a handkerchief, the wound no longer hurts.

At this time, Nanmu and Limu also came to Shengxia's side, and Shengxia didn't wait for them to ask, he directly waved his injured palm, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you see, I guess I'll be fine if you come later." ”

Really, under the treatment of "bandages", the wound is almost healing.

Suddenly, I didn't know what Sheng Xia thought of, so I took out a few wooden handkerchiefs directly from my backpack and handed them two.

Nanmu took the handkerchief and looked at his sister with a puzzled expression, he was not injured: "Sister? ”

"Tie it to your hands so you don't get scratched." Midsummer said as she wrapped her other hand with a handkerchief.

Seeing this, everyone did the same, too, it is better not to be scratched if you can avoid being scratched, after all, although it is a game here, the pain is real.

Soon a few people dispersed one after another, but when they were leaving, Xia Xia still didn't worry about telling Midsummer a few words, telling her to be careful.

"Got it, thank you, big brother. Be careful, too. Midsummer replied with a smile.

Then everyone began to search again, not to mention, with this "simple" handkerchief, everyone's speed was much faster, after all, now there is no need to worry about pain when reaching out.

"Come and see!" Suddenly, Kusunoki shouted in surprise.
