Chapter 19: Adventures
Snow in Tokyo is not uncommon, but this year's snow came a little early, at least 20 days later, according to previous years, and this time the snow not only came early, but also densely, and the sky was covered with fine snowflakes for several days.
Wentai was afraid that her daughter would freeze when she went out, so she asked her to stop selling for a few days and continue when the weather improved.
Where does Wen Shu sit, she still owes people a lot of money, she originally wanted to wait for his father to find out, sneak out to do odd jobs, take advantage of the fact that there are few people who come out to work on a snowy day, so as to make more money.
Who knew that her father seemed to know her thoughts, and he actually stayed under the eaves inch by inch, which made her plan fall through, and in desperation, she had to stay at home honestly to read and learn calligraphy.
On this day, she was a little tired from reading in the room, so she wanted to get up and move, and relax her eyes by the way, but the snow was falling outside, and the area of activity was really limited, except for the room, the kitchen and the hall.
There was nothing to wait for in the room, Wen Shu thought for a moment, and bent down to open the bedside table.
She remembered that in the summer, she had hidden a bag of dried lotus leaves here, anyway, she had nothing to do, so why not take out the lotus leaves and make a lotus plum ripe water with the existing dried plums, if the taste is good, the weather is warm, you can also go out to set up a stall.
While thinking, she reached into the cabinet, but this touch, the dry lotus leaf was not found, and she touched a cold, hard thing.
It was only then that she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have forgotten something very important.
That tin box with a strange origin!
Touching out the cold iron box, thinking about the rules he set a month ago, Wen Shu frowned slightly.
It's been more than a month since careful calculations, and no one should remember even the careless, but no one has come to the door to look for this thing for so long.
Looking at the shape of this iron box like a coffin, she always felt weird, it really didn't look like something that ordinary people would carry with them.
After pondering for a moment, looking at the invisible gap between the top cover and the lower circumference, curiosity came out again, and this time Wen Shu did not hesitate to reach out and push the lid back.
Hey? Didn't push!
Wen Shu thinks that he has a lot of strength, he didn't use five points of force just now, but he also used three points of force, why didn't this iron box move a single bit.
Isn't your strength too small?
After thinking about it, she increased her strength again, this time using a full seven points of strength.
It's a pity... Still didn't push.
Wen Shu frowned and raised the iron box back in front of her, carefully examined the slit, and after careful inspection, confirmed that the gap did exist and was not dazzling, she used all her strength to push the lid back.
This time, the lid has moved!
It's just that there is a white light coming from the piercing sound of "squeak, squeak" iron rubbing, Wen Shu subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes, but suddenly there was a huge suction force in front of him.
In the next second, she disappeared in place.
"Vomit ....."
It suddenly became pitch black in front of him, and a violent feeling of weightlessness came, and Wen Shu felt as if he was being hung in mid-air and spinning, and his stomach churned.
Just when she felt that she couldn't hold it back and was about to vomit, suddenly her eyes lit up, a dazzling light came, and at the same time, her feet also felt like they were on the ground.
Something rubbed against her face, tickling, and she opened her eyes curiously, but the sight of it made her stunned.
She was surrounded by a human-tall weed, and she was in the midst of this verdant weed, the thin, slightly fluffy leaves tickling her cheeks as she turned her head.
The dew attached to the tip of the leaf was touched like this, fell from the tip, and hit her shoulder, and the big tree hugged by the four people in the distance towered into the sky, straight into the sky, and she couldn't see her head even when she raised her neck.
There was a faint fragrance of flowers in the air, and as far as the eye could see, there was a thriving image of plants and trees.
Is this a dream? Wen Shu reached out and pinched his thigh.
"Shhhh
The sharp pain came, and before Wen Shu could react, everything in front of him began to blur again, that is, the lake that was hit by the stones, rippling layer by layer.
Then a familiar dizziness came, just as before, and her stomach began to tumble again, but before she could gag, she felt her feet on the ground, and when she opened her eyes again, everything around her was back to her familiar appearance.
At this moment, she was still standing in front of the table, holding the tin box in her right hand.
Is it really a dream? Wen Shu frowned.
Outside the window, the snow was white, the light was dazzling, it was clearly daytime, how could she dream!
Looking over my shoulder again, there was a wet undergarment........
Wrong! Wrong!
Remembering the white light from before, she suddenly looked down at the tin box in her hand.
At this time, the lid of the tin box is pushed open from front to back, and under the bright light, you can clearly see that there is nothing inside, and the only peculiarity is that there is a silver-white circle the size of a fingernail in the middle of the dark bottom seat, which is still bright against the background of the surrounding darkness.
Wen Shu couldn't help but be curious, reached in and touched it, and the cold touch came, which was no different from ordinary iron pieces.
Lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up! Is the trap on the cover?
Thinking of the moment of white light when she opened the lid earlier, she closed the lid again, this time smoothly and without the difficulty and difficulty of opening it before.
It was only when she opened the lid again that it began to be extremely difficult again, and it took a great deal of effort to push.
"Squeak, squeak...."
With a tooth-aching grinding sound, the iron lid slowly moved back, but to her disappointment, this time the coffin lid was opened, and no white light came out, and she stood in place.
What's going on? Is it really a pipe dream?
Wen Shu was puzzled, and looked at the iron coffin in front of him in a daze.
Outside the room, Wentai was immersed in the work, and did not notice the abnormality in the room, and when he assembled the wooden stool in his hand and felt his stomach rumble, it was not too early to react, but the kitchen opposite was deserted, and there was no fireworks at all.
He stood up suspiciously and walked to Wenshu's window, and saw his daughter standing at the head of the bed, holding the iron box in her hand, and couldn't help asking, "Eh, what are you looking at, is the meal done?" ”
Wen Shu came back to her senses and saw her father standing outside the window and hurriedly beckoned to him: "Dad, come here, I have something to tell you." ”
"What's the matter?" Wentai did not move.
"Oh, you come in first, come in and talk about it."
Seeing her like this, Wentai could only step in, "What's the matter, let's talk about it." ”
"Dad, I just went to a fairy secret realm, where ........." Wen Shu whispered in his ear to elaborate on what had just happened.
After Wen Tai listened, he looked at her fixedly for a while, then reached out and touched her forehead, muttering, "No fever?" ”
"Oh, Dad, I'm telling the truth." Wen Shu was angry, pointed to the iron box in his hand and said, "When I opened it just now, there was really a white light. ”
Wentai looked at it for a moment, took the iron box and put it in the palm of his hand and tried to push it open with his fingers, but no matter how hard he tried, the box didn't move at all.
Wen Shu snatched the iron box in disbelief, stretched out his hand and pushed it hard, a familiar friction sound came, and the lid opened, but no white light shot out.
This time, Wen Shu was a lot calmer, after all, he was like this just now, but Wen Tai on the side was shocked!
When he opened the lid of the iron box just now, he really used force, and even if he didn't use up ten points, he used nine points, but he still didn't shake a single point.
But the girl opened it with a little breath, what does this mean?
It shows that the strength of the girl has risen again, and it has not risen by a star and a half!
At this moment, Wentai really doesn't know whether to be happy or worried, but now this is not the point, the important thing is the iron box.
He said as if it were senseless: "Look, where there is white light, you must be dazzled." ”
"Yes..... Is it? Wen Shu looked at the wet shirt on his shoulder, still having doubts in his heart.
It's just that she didn't open it twice in a row, and she didn't have anything else to say, saying that his father wouldn't believe it, so she could only put the tin box back in the cabinet and turn around and go to the kitchen to cook.
