Dim cabins.

Although the stories told by Yingcao are more in the style of fairy tales, in fact, some things are still very heavy.

"It's not a fairy tale."

Yingcao's gaze fell on the curtain, and there was no way to see the man's figure from the curtain, probably because he was far away.

"And what happened to the last moving grass?"

The man asked.

The story of Yingcao has also been told for so long, although for adults, the story is not attractive. But, anyway, after listening to it, I will still be a little curious.

"Xiaocao eventually turned into a monster, guarding the remnants of his companions on the grassland.

And one day the humans left the grassland. ”

Yingcao replied.

Apparently.

The story told by Yingcao can be regarded as her own story, but at this time, the person on the other side of the curtain does not know.

"Is anyone still willing to tell a story?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Master, it's getting late today, let's get a good night's sleep first. How about tomorrow? ”

Gu Huoniao said.

The cabin is almost enclosed, so it is difficult to feel the passage of time accurately inside.

If it weren't for Gu Huoniao's reminder, Chen Beibei would have thought it would still be daytime.

"Is it already night?"

Chen Beibei asked suspiciously.

Chen Beibei stood up and walked towards the outside of the cabin, sure enough, it was already night, and a bright bright moon was shining on the sea in the sky. The view is incomparably beautiful.

"Then let's rest first."

Chen Beibei looked at his Shishen and said to them.

It's almost winter now, and the sea at night has a cold air.

However, Chen Beibei still did not return to the cabin immediately.

The moon is always associated with longing, looking at the bright moon, you will think about whether the person on the other side of the moon, the person who is worrying, is looking at the same moon as yourself.

Or.

On this night, is the moon in my hometown as beautiful as here?

"Master, you already miss Chen Yan and the three-tailed fox, right?"

Guan Hu walked lightly to Chen Beibei's side, stood side by side with him, and also looked up at the moon.

"When we left, it was early spring, and now we're about to creep into winter.

If it weren't for feeling the cold weather.

I didn't realize that I had been away from them for so long. ”

Chen Beibei looked at the moon in the sky and sighed.

"Time is such a strange thing, it always passes inadvertently. Whenever we suddenly think about it, we realize that a lot of time has passed. ”

Guan Hu replied.

"When I go back this time, Qinghe Town should have been restored to peace. I wish I could live a peaceful life. ”

Chen Beibei said.

The sea is rough and there is only a faint wind in the air, but these winds blowing from a long distance can also cause the sea to form huge waves.

Once in Qinghe Town, the biggest danger was undoubtedly the drunken boy.

Now the matter of swallowing the boy has been resolved.

As long as there are no other big monsters, or some bad guys, you can basically live a peaceful life.

Of course.

This is nothing more than an extravagant wish.

……

The big ship continued to sail on the sea, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, but in general, it was getting closer and closer to everyone's destination.

"Who will start today?"

At this moment, it is already the early morning of the next day. Everyone washed up and finished breakfast.

While washing, Chen Beibei saw the people on the other side of the curtain.

Neither man seemed to be very talkative.

It's the kind of person who doesn't want others to know about it, and doesn't want to know about other people's things.

And all four women are also very introverted.

Only the woman in green clothes glanced at Chen Beibei when she saw Chen Beibei, and nodded and smiled, which was regarded as a greeting.

Other women deliberately avoid the gaze of others, and many times simply keep their heads down. After they finished washing, they went straight back to the other side of the curtain.

"I'll tell you."

Gu Huoniao said.

The voice of the bird was as cold as ever, and the sound was very small, but it could be heard clearly.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about it."

Yingcao said.

Gu Hou Bird is very much like talking, like Inugami.

At least.

Gu Bird is very young and will participate in everyone's small talk.

Therefore, when Gu Houniao proposed to tell a story, Yingcao was still very excited.

In many cases, the powerful power of the Gu Bird is the envy of Yingcao.

But Yingcao knew.

It is impossible for her to reach the point where Gu Hou Bird is, after all, she is not as mature and calm as Gu Hou Niao in many aspects.

"Once upon a time there was a woman named Megumi who married a poor scholar.

The only child that the scholar loves very much, and he is also very motivated.

Even if it is late at night, I often read at night and study in the classroom, just to be able to gain fame in one day.

No one asked for ten years in the cold window, and he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop.

Every scholar may be like this. It's just that this poor scholar has never been able to achieve the achievement of the second half of the poem.

There's nothing left to eat at home, so you might as well farm or do some porterage." ’

Megumi said to the scholar.

It has been several years since she was married to a scholar, and Hui daily relies on textiles to make ends meet.

But.

Megumi has been getting bigger and bigger lately, and it's no longer convenient for me to continue working.

And the scholars are still studying those books.

The family has long been out of food.

In a while, it will be time for the exam to start, such an urgent juncture. How can you do those things? ’

The scholar said. ”

"How can there be such people, and if they are not going to starve?"

The woman on the other side of the curtain said.

"Well, in the days that followed, they did start starving. Megumi started weaving again, but it was not convenient for him to work, so he couldn't earn the rations of two people.

"Hui, I'm going to Beijing to catch the exam. Over the years, I have kept in my heart your hard work. Believe me, I will definitely achieve fame, and then take you and the child in your belly to enjoy prosperity and wealth. ’

After saying these vows, the scholar left.

In the days when there were no scholars, Megumi lived as usual alone, and everything was as usual. There doesn't seem to be anything unaccustomed to either.

But.

Soon the day of production came.

Although Megumi knew that she would give birth on the day the scholar left, Megumi felt that she would definitely be able to give birth to the child alone.

And.

For Megumi, the scholar does have important things to do, how can he ask him to let go of his good future and stay at home to accompany him?

When you get home, you'll be happy to see your newborn child." ’

Megumi thought so.

Severe pain began to hit, and Megumi couldn't help but shout, just saying some longing words in her mouth.

'It hurts. ’

'Giving birth is a very painful thing, but it will soon pass. No big deal. ’

Megumi thought so.

The pain came in waves, and soon, Megumi passed out in pain.

When she woke up again, Megumi didn't know what time it was.

Outside the window, it was raining, there was a rattling sound, and every now and then there would be thunder.

'Is it already night?' ’

Megumi watched the window get dark, and realized that it was night.

'I've been in a coma for so long, kid...... The baby was born......

Megumi reached out and groped on the bed, and soon felt something soft.

It's really already born, it's great, and it's not as painful as I thought. ’

Megumi picked up the child, and at this time, there was a thunderclap outside the window, and a lightning bolt pierced the night sky, and a miserable white light appeared.

This flash of light gave Megumi a brief chance to see her child.

The newborn child still has blood stains on his body, but because it is a child born to himself, it still looks very cute.

'Hey'

'Are you asleep?' Why don't you speak? ’

Such a young child can't speak, really, I forgot about it. ’

Megumi patted her child, because in common sense, children can cry.

This time.

Megumi wanted to hear her child's cry, but the night was too quiet......

The child did not cry.

Megumi slapped a few times with more force, but it was still the same as before.

The surroundings are breathtakingly quiet.

It was as if the rain had swallowed up all the other sounds, and only the noisy sound of rain outside the window still sounded. ”

"The child must be dead, right?"

The woman on the other side of the curtain said in a worried voice.

Women are always more able to understand these things, after all, women are more emotional.

"The child is indeed dead, and Megumi is starting to be afraid, afraid of the night, afraid of the rain, and afraid of thunder.

Seem.

Everything is scary.

At the moment, she didn't know what to do, the scholar was already far away.

Megumi, whose mind was blank, picked up the child.

This time.

Although she knew that the child in her arms was dead, she didn't want to believe it.

She wanted to take the child to Langzhong.

Megumi's messy clothes were stained with blood, and the rain re-soaked those bloodstains.

Blood mixed with rain snaked down Megumi's thighs. ”

"It's a terrible story, women will die in the end. On such a rainy night, how could a woman who was already desperate in her heart find Langzhong? ”

The woman said.

"Yes, the woman was just walking around outside, and she couldn't even see the road.

In the end, the woman died in that rainy night. ”

Gu Huoniao replied.

"When the scholar goes home, he will regret it very much. After all, you can live the life of an ordinary person, but you have to covet fame and fortune. In the end, the family was ruined. ”

"No one knows about the scholar. Maybe you have achieved fame and fame, and then you have lived a rich life.

Maybe when he returned home, after knowing about it, he destroyed the liver sausage.

But.

No matter what the scholar's ending is, for Megumi, it doesn't matter at all. ”

Gu Huoniao replied.

After the story of Gu Shou Bird was told, the cabin fell silent, and the story was very heavy for everyone.

Especially Chen Beibei them.

After all.

Chen Beibei and they know that this story is actually related to Gu Xuniao's own life experience.

Maybe it's a story that Gu Xuniao made up for himself.

Maybe it's Gu Huoniao himself who really recalls those things before.

Whatever the possibility is, it's distressing.

"Sister Gu Bird......"

Zashiki took the hand of the bird, and then lay down in her arms.

……

After the story of Gu Huoniao was finished, everyone did not continue to tell other stories.

After all.

No matter what kind of story, under the story of Gu Won Bird, it will seem very bleak.

For the rest of the voyage.

Everyone returned to their previous routine, slept until noon every day, and then after eating, moved a little, and went back to sleep.

Time gets boring.

However, it is not too difficult, because everyone knows that in a few days, you will be able to reach the coast.

"Master, do you think those people are strange?"

One day later, everyone had already fallen asleep, and the dog god suddenly asked.

The voice of the dog god was very small, and Chen Beibei only heard it vaguely. I didn't even hear what Inugami was saying.

"Let's go to the deck."

Inugami whispered.

This time, the voice of the dog god became clearer, and Chen Beibei also heard it.

"Hmm."

Chen Beibei followed the dog god to the deck, and there was a door between the deck and the cabin, which could more or less play a certain soundproof effect.

"What did you just say?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"The group of people in the same group is a little strange, I wonder if the master has found out?"

Inugami said.

"Hmm. It's a little weird indeed. It's been so long that I don't even know their names. We only see each other briefly, and they don't want to talk to us. ”

Chen Beibei thought about it carefully, and then said.

Originally, on the sea, it takes a long voyage, and even strangers will deliberately greet each other because they need to spend a period of time together.

But that group of people seemed to be deliberately avoiding Chen Beibei and them.

"The women seemed to be afraid of something."

Inugami said.

"Scared?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"Well, every time I see those women, they keep their heads down. Even when they were greeted by them, they just walked over quickly. They must be afraid of something, so they should be like this. ”

Inugami explained.

Those women are actually quite strange, and it can be seen that they are just ordinary women.

The woman in green should still have a more lively personality.

But.

It is true that they never speak to Chen Beibei and them in private, and they can hear their voices, and it is only on the other side of the curtain, when they are sitting with the two men.

It's as if they were scared that the two men would misunderstand them......
