It is the time when the spring flowers are blooming, and the bright sun shines down, giving people a warm feeling. Soak in the warmth of spring, feel the freshness of the breeze blowing in your face, close your eyes and take a deep breath, and the warmth of melting will swing in your heart.

Summer is coming soon. Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that I hadn't taken a shower in a long, long time. I don't want to pour it, but the more I think about it, the more I feel slimy and uncomfortable. I've always heard that Japan's hot springs are famous, but after staying in ancient times for so long, my body is about to stink. Of course, you should take advantage of the time when the temperature is not low in spring.

Thinking like this, I tugged at Qingming's sleeve and tried to pretend to be pitiful: "Qingming......"

"What's wrong?"

Qingming was stunned by me.

"I ...... I want to take a shower. ”

I had a smile on my face.

"Here?"

He was quite surprised.

"Is there a hot spring here?"

I don't know if he understands it or not, what is the name of the ancient hot spring? Soup pool?

"It seems to be, but you ......"

Qingming looked at me worriedly, with an unspeakable look.

"No problem, just take a shower, it won't be dangerous."

"In case you run into a youkai."

"Don't I have the pentagram you taught me to defend myself?"

"Bump", I was hit on the head again.

"It's a bellflower print! It is a prayer charm in the Yin and Yang Dao that represents the five elements of heaven and earth (wood, fire, earth, gold, and water), which symbolize all things in the universe. Do you understand? ”

"Oh." I casually said a perfunctory sound, and the ghost could understand what he was saying! Oh, yes, the ghost understands, because the ghost is most afraid of Abe Harumi's bellflower print. Thinking about it, I smirked.

The long eyebrows were raised slightly, my wandering mind was in full view of him, the thin carmine lips were hooked, the eye waves flowed, and a different style was naturally revealed, he leaned over and whispered in my ear: "Honey worm." ”

The breath was like a quiet orchid, and my blood suddenly coagulated.

"Do you want me to fold a few pieces of paper and follow you to protect you? It would be more comfortable to serve as a god. ”

The voice was as light as a dream, gentle as Gu, and there was a hint of evil on his lips.

"No, you don't! No! ”

I hurriedly waved my hand, who knows if it was voyeurism?

If the paper man saw something, would he know? It's weird, I'm curious what this is for?

"That's good." Qingming regained his serious expression, took out the spell and drew the spell with a thin cinnabar pen. The vermilion bellflower mark soaked through the spell as thin as a cicada's wings, glowing with a red luster, staring at me with a solemn expression, "Bring it and protect you." ”

The sky was clear, and the momentum on his body was like that of the pharaoh of Egypt, revealing solemn majesty, and the wide and straight white hunting clothes lined him up and down. Is this the natural temperament?

Hurriedly tucking the charm into my clothes, I excited: "You agree with me to take a bath?" ”

Qingming glanced at me and couldn't help but laugh.

Sad urging, sad urging, I have to ask for permission from others when I go back to ancient times to take a bath. Back then, I rushed when I wanted to......

"Let's go, Fujiwara Michicho is still waiting for us."

"I'll wash it quickly!"

Three steps and two steps, I immediately rushed down the hill. He was halfway through and came back and shouted, "Qingming, you haven't told me where the hot spring is?" ”

I immediately followed his gesture and ran away, what a daredevil. I always lose track of things, and I don't finish asking a question

"Wow, hot springs!"

I was so excited that I was greeted by the spring colors in the foothills. The knee-deep grass is lush and green, waving in the breeze, and the hot springs are hidden in it, clear as a mirror, and the water vapor is steaming, like a fairyland on earth. Narcissus, spring flowers, irises, calla lilies, calendula, poppies, cherry blossoms, morning glories, lilacs, cyclamen and many unknown flowers grow by the spring.

So beautiful!

I instinctively look around, but there's no one! Can't wait to untie your clothes, what is this! Because people often visit my house Qingming, I often wear twelve single clothes formal clothes to receive guests, twelve single clothes are composed of Tang clothes, clothes, tops, beats, five clothes and single clothes, and the single clothes also wear small sleeves, oops, take it off and it's troublesome! And the biza, the skirt, the knotted hair, the crown on my body, whew—tired to death! It took me most of the time to strip off these strange outfits, and in the end I was left with the only set of underwear I had when I traveled back to this era, and I thought it was a bikini. I turned and threw myself into the hot springs with my arms outstretched.

"Plop-" splashed a wave.

The warm water instantly surrounded me, like a mother's warm hand caressing my whole body, and the tension of the past few days suddenly disappeared. I don't know if this is the first few dozen days of the Heian period, and I don't know what will happen to my family over there. When I'm at home, I take a bath when I want to, watch TV when I want to watch TV, and people send me greeting cards online. The water vapor steamed on his face, his nose was sour, and he was a little homesick.

I held back the tears that rolled in my eyes and turned my attention to the shore. On the shore, my twelve clothes were piled up in a mess. I think when I first came here, the first thing I saw was Qingming. The narrow eyes are bright and moving, the eyebrows are raised lightly, and the thin carmine lips are slightly raised to outline a charming arc. The lips are full of smiles, the eyebrows and eyes are full of style, the beauty seems to be real, a kind of fox-like charm and a natural elegance are revealed. Strangely, I recognized him at a glance, I knew him all too well!

At that time, I had some knowledge of the background of the Heian period through novels and movies, but I was still at a loss in reality. Especially in an unfamiliar environment with no relatives and no one to rely on, I feel lost, hesitant and afraid. Fortunately, Qingming took me in, but fortunately he was always by my side, even if occasionally he would tease me, even if occasionally I would commit a few nymphomaniacs because of his handsomeness, I always felt very relieved. I've been busy with him to exorcise demons and get along with him, and I don't have time to seriously think about it, thanks to him diverting my attention and ignoring the discomfort of real life.

He prepared twelve garments for me, as if he had prepared all my daily necessities. When he first brought the twelve clothes to me, I was so troubled that I didn't wear them at all. He didn't laugh angrily, and patiently repeated the necessity of dressing me over and over again, explaining in detail the name of each garment and how to wear it. I couldn't resist him, I reluctantly put on the twelve clothes he gave me, I had a straight face, but he smiled.

Looking back on many, many details of life, I realized that Qingming has always been such a careful person. He has been guiding me to live in this strange era of peace without a trace, and has helped me quietly. Thanks to him, I also met Yuan Boya, Qingming's best friend and friend. Although I don't know if I am a friend in the eyes of Yuan Boya......

"Sister......

A clear and sweet greeting brought me back to my senses. The girl in front of her is about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a hairstyle of Ji hair, long black hair in the back, neat bangs that are eyebrow-high, and the "hair and feet" hanging in front of the ears on both sides reach the chin, which is now commonly known as the "princess head". Blinking, bright big eyes, giving people the feeling of a classic Japanese girl, very innocent and cute, as if jumping out of a manga.

It's a hot spring that I went to alone.,Why is there an extra girl in the hot spring? But looking at her innocent and cute appearance, I really like her! Out of politeness, I replied, "Are you taking a bath?" ”

"Hmm," the girl replied sweetly.

Wow...... She's so cute when she laughs!

Lying in the warm hot springs, feeling the warmth of the spring sun, looking at the beautiful spring colors in the distance, smelling the fragrance of grass mixed in the air, the fatigue and worries of the body and mind for several days have quietly flowed and melted in the hot springs thousands of years ago, and the body and mind have never been so relaxed.

"When did you come?"

I looked at her sideways, trying to be closer to her.

"I've always been here."

The girl lowered her head, her thick bangs covering her face, as if she was full of concern.

"The flowers here are beautiful, aren't they?"

I plucked a petunia at random, put it in my mouth and sucked it, the sweet juice sliding across the tip of my tongue.

"Sister......

"Huh?"

I looked at her intently, and the girl was vaguely sad, and she looked like she wanted to say something.

"Can you stay with me?"

As if plucking up a lot of courage, the girl raised her head, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Absolutely!"

I smiled, I must have been lonely for a long time.

The girl paddled gently towards me, with a sweet smile on her face, which was very kind, and made me feel like her own sister in a trance.

When she came to me, she opened her arms and was ready to hold me, but as soon as her hand touched me, before I could react, she was bounced away and fell into the distance.

"What's wrong with you?"

I stood up to help her, and noticed that something was flashing on my body. Looking down, there was a faint golden five-pointed star light in the underwear, which was a spell of sunshine.

The girl rose weakly from the water, her eyes pitifully sad.

"Sister, will you accompany me? I'm so lonely. ”

With that, she stood up from the water, and the water poured down from her, revealing her bare skin. Unconsciously looked down the flowing water, and her shoulders ...... Under her shoulders...... It's all eerie bones! The bottom of the clear hot spring pool is piled up with bones!

"Ahh

A terrible scream pierced the sky.

I rushed to the shore and climbed up one after another, grabbed a piece of clothing and ran around my body, shouting for help. Don't dare to delay for a second.

"Sunny and bright! Clear! ...... "My brain can't think anymore, I can only run with my feelings in a panic, and from time to time there are dead branches and leaves on the road that make me stumble, and I don't care where it hurts and where it doesn't, I run forward desperately."

"Hell! Help me! Mommy, come and save me! Wrong...... Qingming, come and save me......" One stumbled to the ground, and a pair of shallow steps (shoe name) appeared in front of me, and I immediately hugged the legs of the visitor and shouted for help. But when you think about it, it can't be a ghost, right? Reflexively bounced to the side, got up and ran.

But the sleeve was caught, and he shouted in shock: "Ghost! ”

"Smack" was slapped on the head.

"Honey worms!"

"Hell!"

How does this ghost know my name?

"Honey Worm!!"

Why is the sound so familiar?

"Honey Worm !!"

This voice is - Qingming!

"Sunny !!"

I turned around and screamed, I just felt saved!

"Honey Worm, what's wrong with you?"

When I finally calmed down, Qingming frowned and asked.

"There are ghosts...... Hell! I was soaking in the hot springs, and a young girl appeared out of nowhere, and she asked me to accompany her, and when she stood up, her shoulders were full of white bones. ”

I didn't catch my breath and finished quickly.

After thinking about it for a while, the folding fan was closed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said clearly: "Oh-it turned out to be the daughter of drowning." ”

"Sneeze"

Only then did I notice that I was only wrapped in a single coat. It was so cold, I curled up in a ball. A wide white hunting suit was covered for me in time, and I looked sideways, and Qingming actually took off the white hunting suit and gave it to me, but he only wore the innermost single clothes, which looked thin.

"How can I do it, ...... Qingming"

"Put it on."

"You're going to catch a cold."

"I'm fine, you see—" As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his bosom and recited a spell, the piece of paper suddenly grew larger and turned into a hunting coat, and he put it on carelessly, "Don't worry." ”

It always feels strange to look at his new "hunting suit", I don't know if the hunting suit made of paper will be thin, or if he just wants me to feel at ease.

I threw him a grateful smile, but he just raised an eyebrow to show that I understood, what!
