Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Old Cow Knows the Way
"At the edge of the swamp and forest, the shepherd boy rode the old cow and met a talking flower, and a green ox that looked young and strong. The flowers swayed in the wind that swept through the swamps and forests, and the green oxen stood by and turned from time to time to block the excess wind for the flowers. They are together. ”
The family sat cross-legged on the sofa, and the man told the story to his daughter, who rested her head on his wife, who gently stroked her hair from time to time.
"Are this green cow friends with the talking flower?"
"No, he and she are lovers, he loves the swaying of flowers in the wind and the fragrance of flowers, and she leans on his side to enjoy the safety brought by the green ox."
The girl listened to her father's story, and her eyes were a little confused.
Instead, the man and his wife looked up at each other, and a smile appeared on their faces.
The girl looked up, and then turned her gaze back and forth, at her mother and her father, still confused in her eyes.
But she turned her head again, urging her father to follow the story,
"Daddy, what's next......"
"And then. The shepherd boy rode the old cow and met the green ox and the flower at the edge of the swamp, and the flower and the green cow also noticed the green ox. ”
"The green cow and the flower stopped the shepherd boy and the old cow, and asked the shepherd boy and the old cow if they could do them a favor."
The man smiled at his daughter, and then told his daughter the story about the plot of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" on his mobile phone.
"Hua said that she is a seed that floats out of the forest kingdom and is here when she grows up."
"Qingniu said that he was a visitor from outside the forest king, and after passing through the forest kingdom, he saw this swaying flower in the swamp."
She fell in love with him, and Hua and Qingniu wanted to get married. I heard that in a distant place, there was a wedding where two people who loved each other made a vow and never separated again. So want to have a wedding. ”
"Ask the shepherd boy and the green cow if they can officiate the wedding for them."
The shepherd boy and the old cow agreed. The shepherd boy followed the ceremony when he saw someone else on the road before, and helped to preside over the wedding of the green ox and the flower. ”
“…… It's the same city before...... The shepherd boy and the old cow saw. ”
The girl still remembers the previous plot, not long after the shepherd boy and the old cow left the hillside of Xinghua Village, the first city they arrived to witnessed a wedding of the newlyweds.
“…… Under the witness of the shepherd boy and the old cow, Hua and Qingniu held a simple wedding and became husband and wife. ”
The man smiled at his daughter and continued.
The girl fell silent, with anticipation and simple blessings in her eyes.
“…… After the wedding, the couple also asked the shepherd boy and the old cow where they were going. ”
"The shepherd boy and the old cow told the couple that they were looking for first, and they wanted to go through the swamp and go to the other side of the swamp to find it."
"The green cow and the flower listened to the description of the shepherd boy and the old cow to the fairy, and they also yearned for it very much, because if they found the fairy, they could turn the flower and the green cow into people."
"But once the seeds of the flower land, there is no way to leave, and the green cow is also willing to stay next to the flower for the rest of his life to shelter the flower from the wind and rain, and never leave."
It seems that I heard that the flower and the green cow can't go with the shepherd boy and the old cow to find the fairy,
The girl frowned.
The man looked at his daughter and gently stroked her hair and brow.
Keep talking.
"But the shepherd boy still told Hua and Qingniu that when they find the fairy and learn the magic of the fairy, he will come back to help them."
"The flower and the green ox said that they would only stay at the edge of this swamp and forest kingdom until the shepherd boy returned."
"After saying goodbye to the flower and the green ox, the shepherd boy and the old cow left the ...... again"
At this point, the man slowed down and stopped continuing the story.
The girl raised her head, and looked at her father expectantly,
Forget for a moment that the flower and the green cow can't go to find the unhappiness of the fairy with the shepherd boy and the old cow,
Looking forward to the next story.
"Hmm...... Baby, why don't we stop here today and move on to tomorrow? ”
The girl couldn't feel it very much, but the man looked at the original text of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", but it was already from the author's words,
I feel like the next plot is probably a little bad.,
The wedding of the green ox and the flower, the vast swamp, all seem to be a portent.
Although there are actually updated chapters later, the man still doesn't want to continue.
"Daddy...... Will you talk about it for a little while......"
The girl pursed her mouth a little, and there was an aggrieved look in her eyes.
“…… Alright, alright...... Dad will tell you about it, and then tell you, but I won't tell you the story after this chapter. ”
It's okay if the girl is noisy, but he can't stand this aggrieved appearance with his mouth pursed.
So the man hurriedly responded, and turned another page on his phone.
"Uh-huh."
The grievance on the girl's face faded, and she nodded again, listening obediently, looking forward to the next story.
“…… The swamp was vast, and only birds could be seen in the sky that had flown by for a long time, and there was only black mud and dead weeds on the ground. ”
"But the shepherd boy and the old cow still chose to step into the swamp, and they wanted to go to the other side of the swamp."
"The mud in the swamp is very sticky, and when you step on it, it will sink into a pit, and it will be very difficult for the old cow to walk."
"Before long, the old cow carrying the shepherd boy was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and all four feet were covered with mud, and even his tail was stained with mud."
So the shepherd boy got down from the old cow, and at first he talked to the old cow and walked forward side by side, and then the shepherd boy led the old cow and led the old cow forward.
"But the swamp is so vast and wide that the shepherd boy and the old cow go from day to night, and in the distance it is still a swamp as far as the eye can see."
"The old cow is really old, so the more he walks, the more he sweats, the more sludge he gets on his body, and the old cow's belly is also covered with sludge from the swamp."
The girl's face became a little nervous as she listened.
Listening to the story of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals" every day, she became nervous about the shepherd boy and the old cow in the Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals.
“…… At night, the shepherd boy asked the birds passing by in the swamp, and the birds said that they were still far, far away from the end of the swamp.
The shepherd boy asked Asuka if there were fairies on the other side of the swamp? Asuka said he didn't know either. ”
“…… So the shepherd boy led the old cow on his way, but the old cow was so old that he was getting more and more tired, and he was walking too hard in the swamp. ”
“…… Finally, once again when passing through a small oasis in a swamp......"
"Dad, what's the little oasis?"
"It's just a small forest with a small lake."
"Then the shepherd boy and the old cow can rest in the little oasis!"
"Hmmm......"
The man has seen the next plot in the text,
He spoke a little hesitantly and slowly.
After answering his daughter's voice, he paused again before continuing,
“…… The shepherd boy and the old cow ate the fruit of the tree in the oasis, and the old cow washed the mud from his body by the small lake. ”
"After washing the sludge and eating the fruit, the old cow said to the shepherd boy,"
"I'm sorry, shepherd boy. I'm getting old, and I can't go any further. ”
"This swamp is so big that you can't see the edge at a glance, and the old cow is too old, too old, when he set off from Xinghua Village, he was old, and now he is even older."
"Huh? Didn't the old cow accompany the shepherd boy to find the fairy? ”
The girl sat up and asked nervously.
"yes...... The old cow is too old, everyone will be old, and when it is too old, it will slowly not be able to walk......"
The man reached out and gently touched the girl's hair, and said softly.
"Then Mom and Dad, will you be too old to walk......
The girl's tears were already in her eyes.
"At that time, Dad, can you still tell me stories?"
The man gently stroked the girl's hair and smiled softly at his daughter, but did not respond.
The wife only gently stroked her daughter's face and did not speak.
"Baby girl, do you still listen to the story?"
"Listen!"
The girl had tears in her eyes, but she nodded heavily and said.
“…… The old cow, he can't walk anymore, and he can't go down with the shepherd boy any longer. ”
He said to the shepherd boy that he would stay here. This oasis is not bad either. Although he failed to accompany the shepherd boy to find the fairy. ”
"But I also accompanied the shepherd boy to leave Xinghua Village, and when I arrived here, I didn't have to worry about the original family eating it."
"It can wait here for the shepherd boy to find the fairy one day and come back."
The shepherd boy agreed, and he said, "Let the old cow wait for him here." One day, he will come back through the vast swamp, and the day he returns, he will turn the vast swamp into a forest, and he will leave here with the old cow. ”
"Will the shepherd boy come back and find the old cow?"
With tears in her eyes, the girl asked again.
"Yes, the shepherd boy will come back and find the old cow. One day, the shepherd boy will come back when he finds the fairy, and the old cow will be here all the way to the shepherd boy's return. They'll see you again. When he said goodbye, the shepherd boy must have a lot of magical skills, and he can go back with the old cow. ”
The author of the plot has not yet written, but the man still comforts his daughter like this.
"Hmm!"
The girl nodded heavily, and then asked her father with tears in her eyes,
"Daddy...... Is today's story finished? ”
"Hmm...... I'm done talking about it today, and let's listen to it again tomorrow, okay? ”
"Hmm."
The girl was not noisy, and there were tears in her eyes,
I got off the couch and ran back to my bedroom.
Watching his daughter go back to the bedroom, the man and the woman also got up from the sofa one after another.
The woman looked at her daughter, paused, and then turned her head,
"This fairy tale...... It's weird and sad. ”
"yes...... I'll go see my daughter again. ”
"Hmm."
Bedroom house.
After the girl was sad, she became tired and sleepy.
I'm going to fall asleep in a daze,
Just before leading to sleep, I couldn't help but ask her father,
"Daddy...... Does the shepherd boy really see the cow? ”
"Yes, yes......"
……
“…… Dog author, isn't this equivalent to writing the old cow to death. As soon as I thought that all the way, there would only be the old cow accompanying the shepherd boy, and the shepherd boy was lonely enough, but now it was even more lonely, and there was always one person walking on the next road, and I burst into tears......
“…… As soon as I thought of the old cow, I took the little oasis with me, and looked day after day in the direction in which the shepherd boy had left, waiting for the shepherd boy to return, and then the shepherd boy did not come back for a long time...... What the hell am I ...... Hmm, dog author! ”
“…… The dog author has lost his conscience! Lost conscience! If I don't read it, you will abuse me in fairy tales! I don't look at it! I really don't want to watch it...... Hmm, the storm cries in the nest......"
“…… If I look at it again, I'll ...... Whining...... I'm mad, come and scold someone, scold the dog author for me. ”
“…… I cried when I watched a fairy tale...... Dog author, you're a real dog......"
“…… As an honest person, I want to say that if you scold the author, you will scold the author, why should you also reward the author for voting......"
“…… You know a fart, my reward is for the old cow, and my ticket is for the shepherd boy...... He's a bookwriter, and he knows a fart of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals"! ”
In the comment area of "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals",
It's like blowing up the nest.,There was basically no psychological expectation before.,
Although readers know that the old cow is very old, they have not considered the possibility that the dog author will lose the old cow while writing.
Especially the readers who have not gone through the first few books of the dog author, who were originally not ink stations, and are new to the pit.
They watched it all cool before, can they stand this grievance?
Then go crazy in the comment area...... Then vote for a tip and watch ......
There's no way, and it's impossible for the dog author to change the plot, so I can only see if there will be a good ending.
……
“…… Mom, what are you doing in the living room? ”
When the young man got up in the middle of the night, he saw that the light was still on in the living room.
walked over to take a look, but found that his mother was still sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding her mobile phone and looking at something, her eyes were still a little red.
"Mom, are you alright?"
Seeing his mother's red eyes, the young man couldn't help but ask again with concern,
"It's alright, it's alright...... It's just a story...... The story is also quite touching,"
The woman hurriedly wiped the corners of her eyes, looked up with a smile on her face, and said.
“…… The author didn't actually write anything...... It's just that I looked at it and inexplicably remembered your grandfather and came with your father. ”
"Okay, you go to sleep, tomorrow you still go to work, Mom is going to sleep, Mom will get up tomorrow morning to make you buns."
After a few hurried words, the woman went back to the bedroom as if she were fleeing.
The young man first listened to his mother's first half of the words, and felt a little strange and inexplicable,
After listening to the second half of the sentence, he paused in place, a little silent,
Finally, he raised his head and shouted at his mother's bedroom,
"Mom, what are you looking at?"
"It's a fairy tale, called "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", don't laugh at your mother."
"Where's ......?"
The young man answered, stood still and took out his phone, searching for the book.
And at the same time,
A lot of people in different places,
As a reader who is also a shepherd boy looking for immortals, a lot of things are happening.
Some people have red eyes, and some people feel blocked in their hearts when they see it.
……
“…… It's just a few chapters updated.,It's obviously a very simple content.,But it's a lot of things.。 ”
"The difference between the shepherd boy and the old cow seems to be a continuation and inheritance, at first it was the old cow instead of the shepherd boy who wanted to find immortals, but the old cow stopped on the road, but the shepherd boy continued."
“…… It seems to talk about the difference between relatives again, whether from the perspective of the shepherd boy or the old cow...... It seems that there are a lot of things at home...... But what I want to say the most is that the dog author returns my old cow! ”
Still sitting in the study, looking at the chapters updated today,
or sad and indignant, or righteous indignation, or long comments to vent feelings,
Ji Zhuo's mood is also complicated.
Because of the grief and indignation of this group of people,
Then the number of backstage tips skyrocketed, and the monthly pass recommendation ticket also skyrocketed again.
Ay......
Can't you be honest?
You're readers, so humble,
Stand up for the master!
Ji Zhuo sighed again, looking at these sad and angry excited comments,
Mixed feelings.
has also given up.,I was going to send a testimonial on the shelf.,
Counterproductive practices.
He was afraid that this group of 'grief and indignant' readers would scold fiercely,
When you subscribe, you are in a hurry.
Never mind
So be it.
As usual, what do you want to put on the shelf.
There's really no need.
Shaking his head, Ji Zhuo stood up and prepared to go out to eat.
"Ding-dong."
Well?
Someone sent a message.
"300,000 per second: Ji Zhuo, are you in a good mood today?"
Well?
"Clumsy and Extraordinary: ...... Well, it's okay. ”
"300,000 per second: ......
300,000 per second: I'm in a bad mood!
300,000 per second: Come! Come out and eat hot pot, I'm please! ”
Inexplicably, Ji Zhuo is a little weak-hearted.
It's okay if you're in a bad mood, right?
Probably......
