Chapter 38: The Fire
Chihiro lifted Hachi's arm, put it around her neck, and stood up.
"Why are you so heavy!"
Hachi's entire weight was on Chihiro's shoulders, and she couldn't even stand up, sitting on the ground with her buttocks.
After trying a few times, Chihiro not only didn't succeed, but both of them got covered in mud and looked very embarrassed.
Her face was flushed, and she was sweating profusely.
She wiped her face and looked around, hoping that someone nearby would come and help her.
The rain grew heavier and heavier, and it was cold on the face.
Chihiro ripped off a large piece of cloth from the clean hem of her skirt and tore it into small strips and clumped them together, blocking Hachi's ears, nostrils, and mouth.
She exhaled and muttered to herself, "That should do." I've blocked all the water inlets you can see, and I can't help you with the rest of the invisible. If any of your parts break in the future, don't blame me! ”
Chihiro picks up the tonic Hachi bought for her, places it next to her, and then turns and runs deeper into the street to see if there are any shops that are still open and willing to borrow a carriage to take them back to the inn.
By the time Hachi opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the inn he was familiar with.
He removed the strips of cloth that had been stuffed in his ears, nostrils, and mouth, and sat up gloomily as he recalled the conversation he had with Chihiro before he fainted for a while.
This girl ran away again!
Now he didn't care how he got back to the inn, he just wanted to go out and find people as soon as possible.
At this time, the clothes on Xiaoba's body were damp, and he didn't know who took off his robe and threw it on the table on the side, he got up and flipped it over, and his clothes were stained with a lot of yellow mud.
What kid is so sloppy at work?
Hachi took off his wet clothes and wiped his hands carefully.
I don't know where Chihiro went, so I'm going to take a look at it with the information board in a while.
Hachi wiped his body clean first, and then found a set of clothes in the box.
He was about to put on his underwear when he heard the door being pulled open.
This was followed by a sky-piercing scream and a panicked slam door.
A woman's reproach sounded outside the door: "Why don't you get dressed?" ”
Hachi was taken aback by Chihiro and hurriedly got dressed.
He walked to the door and pulled it open.
Facing Xiaohachi's gaze, Chihiro turned her face in embarrassment and broke: "When did you wake up?" ”
Hachi looked at Chihiro, the woman was blushing, the clothes on her body were covered with yellow mud, and a large piece of her skirt was missing.
I really can't take care of myself.
He stretched out his hand and hung up a yellow mud mark on her face: "Just woke up." ”
Chihiro immediately jumped away from him, blushing even more, and his tone was quite dissatisfied: "I didn't mean to, who knew that you woke up, why did you have to touch it back!" ”
Hearing this, Hachi showed a little smile in his eyes and asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”
"Where are you going?" Chihiro didn't understand what Hachi meant.
How stupid!
"You can't come here to talk to me, do you?" Hachi casually changed the subject.
Of course, Chihiro didn't come to talk to him.
After returning to the inn, she was afraid that the servants of the inn would find out about Hachi's strange body temperature, so she took off his robe herself. Later, I thought that the robot would not catch a cold, so I hung him in the room, ran to the kitchen with brown sugar, and told the cook to make a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup for herself.
She just folded back and wanted to change the wet clothes for Hachi, and she felt that the robot should not be able to stay in the humid environment for a long time.
Chihiro covered her nose and sneezed.
"Got a cold?" Hachi pulled Chihiro into the room and found a Bai Juan to wipe her hair.
"I'll do it myself." Chihiro couldn't help but say when she saw Hachi tearing her hair up.
took Bai Juan, put it on the top of her head and rubbed it twice, and then threw it aside.
Chihiro approached Hachi: "You check first to see if there is anything wrong with your body?" ”
"No problem." Hachi quickly replied.
"You better take a look, I'm afraid the rain will get into your body."
"I'm not afraid of water," Hachi put on his robe and continued, "I'm afraid you're going to catch a cold if you don't go back to change your clothes." ”
If it weren't for the fact that you saved me, I wouldn't have done these things.
Looking at the back of Hachi leaving, she muttered in her heart.
The night is cool.
The snow-white pear blossoms were blown off the branches by the wind and fell on the front of the steps. On the steps stood a fairy in white, with skin like ice and snow, with a graceful posture, stepping on incense.
The man was draped in black hair, holding an arm-length puppet in his arms, looking into the distance, looking at the melting moonlight, frowning slightly, as if worried.
Behind the pear tree, in a thick pine tree, there are two people. The man sat on a fork of the branch, carrying a petite woman behind him.
It's Hachi and Chihiro.
After nightfall, the two sneaked into the princess's mansion and hid in a tree branch.
"The goddess is so beautiful!"
Princess Mingyue has been upgraded to the goddess of Chihiro.
"Princess Mingyue is a man."
Hachi throws a bombshell that shatters Chihiro's three views.
"Princess Mingyue is a man?" She couldn't help but raise her voice.
Hachi reached out and covered her mouth.
"Why didn't you say it sooner?" Chihiro complained, then thought of something and asked, "Impossible, she doesn't have an Adam's apple!" ”
Chihiro doesn't believe it.
"It's strange not to have an Adam's apple, but do you know how biology distinguishes between men and women? It is through chromosomes. There's an easier way to do that – by looking at sexual traits. In order to be able to make more accurate judgments, multiple features are used for comparison. ”
Chihiro froze, quite speechless, and just said what she could see, isn't it?
"But I remember you said that men can't participate in beauty pageants?"
"Yes, men are not allowed to participate. Therefore, there is a big mystery on the body of this Princess Mingyue. ”
Chihiro looked at the figure in front of the court and said worriedly, "What will happen if your identity is discovered?" ”
"Should die."
Just as Hachi finished saying this, a raging fire broke out in the farthest part of the princess's mansion from them.
Princess Mingyue heard the shouts in the distance, returned to the room, called Goose Huang, and asked about the situation.
"Princess, I have inquired clearly, it is the subordinate room where the slaves live in the south that has started a fire."
"Then why was it all discovered when it was all in flames?" Princess Mingyue is strange.
"The burned houses are all old mansions, which have not been repaired for a long time, and they are no longer inhabitable."
When Princess Mingyue heard this, she nodded and ordered, "You go and see again, and come back and tell me when there is a situation." ”
Goose Huang withdrew as he said.
Hachi looked at the fire in the south and felt strange, put Chihiro on the branch, and said, "Stay here, I'll go and see, and I'll be back later." ”
"What are you going to do?" Chihiro hugged the trunk with one hand and pulled Hachi's sleeve with the other.
She didn't want to leave her alone in the trees. What's more, yesterday Xiaohachi fainted because of "insufficient power", and this situation will happen if it is not charged in time.
Hachi is weaker than Chihiro now, what if Hachi suddenly faints and she is not around?
