Chapter 43: Farewell
In the morning, the morning mist had not yet lifted, and the bone-chilling cold was still seeping through. Fortunately, the blowing wind and snow have stopped at some point.
In the small wooden house, the fire that was burning had been burned out at this time. With an inaudible creak, the wooden door was gently pushed open, and Boli lifted her feet and walked out of the house, looking at the early morning fog outside, taking a long breath of fresh air and smiling.
Then, the plan of the day lies in the morning, and today's busy work can begin.
However, you have to be careful not to make too much noise today. There are still two guests sleeping in the house.
As her thoughts turned, she carefully closed the wooden door again, then picked up the broom beside her and walked down the steps.
Well, it looks like the snow has accumulated a lot of snow after a night. Well, in that case, let's start by clearing the snow.
With a small rustling sound, little by little, she cleared the snow that had covered the courtyard. As she passed by the small open-air hot spring, she looked up and beckoned, as if to say hello to someone.
Then he continued to sweep the snow from the ground.
As she turned, a slight breeze blew across the water, dispersing the hazy vapor that lingered above, revealing the hidden figure.
It was a giant tortoise lying on top of a bare rock in the spring, its huge body, like a rock, motionless, as if it had stood still from the beginning.
When the breeze cleared, the lingering mist shrouded again, and the figure of the giant tortoise was once again obscured.
On the side, she was still buried in clearing the thick snow, and she seemed to be accustomed to all this.
By the time she had cleared most of the snow, the sun was shining a little through the gaps in the mountains in the distance. The mist cleared, the clouds melted, she stood up straight, raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead,
Suddenly, her figure froze, and then she turned to look out of the courtyard. At the end of the stone-paved path, a figure was walking slowly.
When the figure approached, she finally spoke slowly, "Hikari, what is the matter with you here?" ”
"No, nothing, just wanted to see you." He stood outside the fence courtyard wall, looking at the man in the courtyard with complicated eyes.
"yes, you've seen it too. Anything else? Her tone was still calm. There is neither enthusiasm nor bad words, it is as plain as water, clear and transparent.
"You ......", the man who was called the light opened his mouth, and after a moment, he returned to silence, "No, it's nothing......"
"Well, if it's okay, then I'll keep busy."
"Hmmm......"
As soon as she turned around, she seemed to think of something, and turned around again, "By the way, help me say hello to Aoi." ”
Hearing this, the man's figure was shocked, then lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "...... Well, ah, I will. ”
Just as he was about to turn to leave, a soft squeak broke the silence. I saw that the wooden door of the hut in the courtyard was pushed open from the inside, and a figure slowly walked out of it.
"Well, it looks like it's going to be a good day today." , he looked up at the sky first and sighed. Then he looked at the figure in the courtyard and greeted with a smile, "Good morning, Miss Bori." ”
Bo Li also nodded and responded, "Good morning, Mr. Mo." Did you sleep soundly last night? ”
"Well, I slept very well. It's been a long time since I had a good night's sleep, and I'm really thankful for it. Mo saluted again and thanked him.
"That's good." , Bo Li smiled.
"Wait!!" At this time, the stunned man outside the courtyard finally came back to his senses, pointed at Mo and shouted: "Bo Li, who is this guy, how can he be in your house!" ”
And Hakurei's expression was still calm, she turned her head to look at the other party, "Hikari, you are too rude." ”
Then he stretched out his hand and introduced: "This is my guest, Mr. Mo, Mr. Mo." He was a traveler from afar, who had just arrived here and had nowhere to live, so he spent the night with me last night. ”
Mo also noticed the man outside the hospital, he stepped forward, nodded with a smile, and said, "Hello, first meeting." I'm ink, you can call me ink. ”
"I traveled here yesterday and got lost here, and I was troubled by the wind and snow. Thanks to Miss Borrey, I am afraid that I will freeze to death in the wilderness. ”
"I haven't been instructed yet, I don't know what your excellency is called?"
"You ......", he looked at the person in front of him, suspicious, but under Bo Li's gaze, he still withdrew the finger pointing at the other party, took a deep breath, and nodded reluctantly: "Hello, my name is Hikatsu, Yuan Zhiguang, please advise." ”
"Well, hello." Mo nodded again. Then he turned to look at Bori, "Miss Bori, thank you so much for yesterday." Now that the wind and snow have passed, it is inconvenient for us to continue to bother, so let's take our leave. ”
After speaking, he took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it over, "This is the reward I said before, it's a small meaning, it's not a tribute, and I hope you will take it." ”
Bo Li looked at the jade pendant shaped like a cloud pattern, shook his head, and refused, "No, I can't ask for this thing." As I said, you're my guests. It is a matter of course to receive guests. ”
"It's this, that's that, how can it be mixed up." , Mo said with a serious face: "Please also accept it, otherwise the two of us will be uneasy." ”
"This ......", Bo Li hesitated for a moment, saw Mo's resolute attitude, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll be ashamed." ”
Bo Li took the jade pendant from Mo's hand and asked, "So, Mr. Mo, where are you going next?" ”
"What ...... this?"
Before Mo could reply, the light on the side, who had already seen a big frown, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and interrupted loudly: "Wait, you are not allowed to go anywhere now!" ”
