Chapter 32: Concentration in Cultivation (1)
(a)
Bai Hua lowered his head and pondered, there will be auditory hallucinations from time to time, could it be... You have a demon in your heart, right?
Thinking of this, Bai Hua's heart palpitated, and then he slapped his cheeks vigorously, "No, no, think too much." ”
Three days passed in a flash, Bai Hua was still counting on the tree, and there was no shortage of thoughts of wanting to give up on the way, but every time he was ready to give up, there was always a secret sound in his ears to spur him. Falling from the tree, Bai Hua had to climb up again with all his might. After tossing back and forth several times, the number of times it fell down decreased a lot.
"Two hundred and thirty-nine thousand eight hundred eighty-nine..." Bai Hua stood on the branch, holding the trunk in one hand and seriously lighting the leaves with the other.
At this time, the secret voice came again, "Come to the platform." ”
Noting down the counts, Bai Hua slid down from the trunk, clapped his hands, and headed towards the platform.
When I entered the courtyard gate, I saw that the Netherworld was already waiting on the edge of the platform.
Bai Hua stood behind him, shook his bow, and said respectfully: "Netherworld Heavenly God!" Since you know that people are also gods, you must not lose the etiquette you should have.
Hearing the sound, the ghost turned around, still holding his hand, and asked lightly, "How is the count?"
Bai Hua pursed his lips and replied embarrassedly: "I... I didn't finish counting. Actually, it's just a little bit.
Netherworld glanced sideways at the jacaranda on the edge of the platform and said, "It's okay, you can count the jacaranda petals on the side of the platform today." ”
What? and count?!
Bai Hua turned to look at the two jacarandas full of small purple flowers on the side, and his face froze completely.
Seeing her staring at the jacaranda in a daze, the ghost asked again, "What's wrong?"
How dare you be inappropriate, I looked at the bamboo slips for a few days last time, and if I say no, then maybe I will have to count the leaves and petals of the entire Wuyi Canglan.
"No, no, I count. Bai Hua immediately waved his hand, and then walked towards the jacaranda.
Although this jacaranda tree is not as tall as the previous tree, after counting the purple petals on the two trees, it is really a headache! Bai Hua stood under the jacaranda tree while walking, and then jumped on the branch with his legs holding the trunk of the tree.
The people in the trees not far away looked serious, and the shadows still felt some emotion in their hearts. It's only been three days, and I've been able to settle down, which is really rare.
Bai Hua saw through the branches of the tree that the Netherworld was sitting next to the platform, leisurely looking at the bamboo slips.
Shrugging his shoulders, Bai Hua continued to count the petals seriously.
It was only after three days that the person standing on the tree was able to move around very flexibly, but she didn't notice it yet.
(b)
After half a year, Bai Hua has climbed all the trees that can be climbed by Wu Yan Canglan. From being timid to count the leaves by holding the trunk of the tree at the beginning, now he can jump lightly between the two trees. This is becoming more and more flexible, and Bai Hua still feels it after all.
"Xiaobai, come over for tea. Nether beckoned to the people in the trees.
Bai Hua bowed his head and said hello, and then jumped down from the tree. In the past six months, the relationship between the two has also been a lot more friendly, even though the shadow is still tense on weekdays, Bai Hua is no longer as afraid of him as before.
Walking to the stone table with a smile on his face, Bai Hua drank the tea in one gulp, wiped two handfuls casually, and said to the shadows: "I should be able to finish things earlier today, and I will make lotus soup for you later." “
Netherworld took a sip of tea and nodded slightly.
This lotus flower is not compared to a lotus, after the last incident of Bingjiao Lotus, Bai Hua categorically did not dare to pick it at will. It's just that the ordinary lotus flowers in the teahouse are carefully taken care of, and they show off their skills in their free time.
After drinking two cups in a row, Bai Hua was about to go up the tree again, but as soon as he walked past the Netherworld, a slender and white hand was horizontally in front of him.
And then. "There was a wooden hairpin lying in the white hand.
Bai Hua looked at the wooden hairpin in Nether's hand, and asked with some surprise, "Give it to me?"
After speaking, he took the wooden hairpin over and looked at it carefully, although the style was simpler, there was a good smell of Su Hexiang on the hairpin, which was the same as the smell on his body.
"This is made of Suhexiang wood, and your usual cloak is not good, like a wild monkey in the tree. ”
It's rare to see in a hundred years, and the Netherworld actually said a joke. Bai Hua listened to the curvature of his mouth a little wider, and then sat on the stone bench, grabbed a small handful of ink silk and fixed it with a wooden hairpin.
Seeing that she had a slanted and loose bun on her head, Netherworld couldn't help frowning, got up and walked around behind Bai Hua, took out the wooden hairpin pinned to the bun, and handed it to Bai Hua.
Bai Hua Mu took the wooden hairpin, and then felt a pair of hands gently and gently hold his hair. Bai Hua stiffened his body and let the Netherworld tie his hair. My heart suddenly palpitated, and the feeling of drowning that I hadn't seen for a long time reappeared.
Just a moment, the big white hand was horizontally in front of Bai Hua's eyes again. Bai Hua immediately came back to his senses and handed over the wooden hairpin again.
"Even if it's just you and me here, you should still pay attention to your own image, you know?" Netherworld straightened the hairpin, and then stood in front of Bai Hua.
Bai Hua immediately got up, nodded respectfully, and touched the wooden hairpin above his head with his hand with a grin.
"Xiaobai, that's the end of today. ”
"Good. ”
"I'm going to Zhuhai in the next two days, and you can fix it for two days, and then come to see me on the platform after two days. ”
Zhuhai?Bai Hua suddenly missed the three of Zehuang a little, even if he drank Bingjiao lotus soup last time and ran away unjustly, but he didn't see each other for more than half a year, he was really very worried.
"Are you going to Zhuhai?" Bai Hua dragged his jaw with both hands, putting on a well-behaved appearance, wanting to discuss with the Netherworld and let himself go together.
This little thought, how can the underworld not know. It's just that if she can't accept her heart, she will definitely not be able to become the climate. After thinking for a moment, he just replied lightly: "I see, you don't need to trim it either." In the next two days, you can put all the thresholds back in Wuyi Kura-ran. ”
Hah, Bai Hua's body instantly softened on the ground, and he put on a look of disbelief, "All?"
"All. The word is simple, domineering and cold and irresistible.
Seeing the departing figure of the Netherworld, Bai Hua pinched the wooden hairpin on his head in his hand, and then simply lay on the ground and kicked his legs vigorously.
Hey, Bai Hua, you are doing your own evil~
(c)
Early the next morning, Bai Hua dragged a large pile of beams through the courtyards with a sad face.
"My head must have been poked in the head by the wooden hairpin, otherwise why would I have nothing to discuss with him?" Bai Hua pouted and said to himself, but his hand was comparing the distance between the horizontal wood and the door.
The person who dismantled it was reckless and dismantled without hesitation, and it was difficult for the person who wanted to install it one by one, which was simply a tedious job that consumed time and energy. Dozens of beams of different sizes, each of which had to be mounted against the door frame. I got up early in the morning and it took two hours to get five. Bai Hua looked sideways at a large bundle of horizontal logs placed on the side, and once burst into tears.
The day passed in the blink of an eye.
The starry sky was full of stars, and the stars were shining.
Bai Hua shrugged his back and dragged his tired body back to the tea house, took a sip of tea, and slumped on the recliner in the courtyard. Rubbing his sore calves, he sighed weakly: "Hey, I have only loaded dozens of them after a busy day, and there are more than half of them, it seems that I will get up early tomorrow." ”
After speaking, he softened his body again, and found a comfortable position to look at the blinking stars in the sky. After looking at it for a while, a pair of eyes half-opened and half-matched went back and forth a few times, and finally couldn't break free from the sleepiness, and this consciousness slowly ran away with the light wind in the night.
At this time, a few wisps of red mist floated in from outside the courtyard, and slowly condensed into a floating human form in the air. As the red mist thickened, the condensed human form became clearer and clearer.
A moment later, the ethereal figure had transformed into a man dressed in red. The man had long silver-white hair, a faint reddish mark in the middle of his forehead, and an evil smile on his lips. I saw him slowly landing from the air with his bare feet, and then leaned over to look at the person on the recliner.
The man called softly, "Bai Hua~"
However, the man on the recliner slept too deeply and did not move.
There was endless tenderness in the red pupils, and the knuckled fingers couldn't stop lingering on her face.
Perhaps it was a sudden discomfort in his cheeks, Bai Hua stretched out his hand and picked at his face. The man immediately removed his hand, only to see her smacking her mouth and turning to the side, showing no sign of waking up.
The corner of the man in red blurred a smile on his lips, and he half-squatted and gently stroked Bai Hua's long hair. It's just that when my fingers accidentally touched the wooden hairpin, the hairpin flashed a faint golden light. The man in red withdrew his hand, but the smile on his face deepened, and the light in his eyes flickered, "Heh, Netherworld really wants to find a way to protect you!"
With that, Youyou stood up and jumped on the roof. Silver-white hair and red clothes fluttered in the moonlight.
"Bai Hua, I'm leaving. When the time comes, remember to come to me!hahahaha~" With an ethereal laugh, the man in red disappeared into the night in an instant.
