Chapter 21: Xia Cicada's Wish
It is a cicada, and it only exists in the summer.
It is often said that "you can't talk to summer insects". What is that, summer insects don't understand ice. It's that it doesn't have a chance to see ice at all, and how can a life that only exists in summer see ice.
The same is true of the summer cicada, whose life is coming to an end soon. But it had a wish, and it wanted to see snow once. And its wishes were known to its companions, but they were laughing at it: as a summer cicada, how could it be possible to see the snow that only appeared in winter.
But the summer cicada did not give up, it wanted to see snow once. So it held on to its last hope and found Zhang Shuling, who was the "Yin Envoy", hoping that he could help him...
Zhang Shuling looked puzzled, looking at his newly rented house and the cicadas flying on the windowsill.
But the cicada could say to him that it was going to die soon, and that it hoped to see snow once before it died.
And Zhang Shuling, who looked puzzled, said to it: It's a hot summer, how can there be snow?
And Lao Bai, who was playing with the ball on the side, suddenly saw the summer cicada on the windowsill. Curiously, he used his white paws to flick the wings of the dying summer cicada. But suddenly I heard that the summer cicada wanted to see the snow in winter. I couldn't help but laugh out loud for a while: As a summer cicada, how can I see snow?
When Xia Chan heard the words of Lao Bai and Zhang Shuling, he looked at Zhang Shuling with tears in his eyes. Then he waved his broken wings and tried to leave...
And Zhang Shuling saw the tears in Xia Chan's eyes, so he couldn't bear to open his mouth and said: Please wait, if you want to see snow, it's not impossible!
After hearing this, Xia Chan put away the tears in his eyes and said to Zhang Shuling full of hope: Is it really possible? Can you help me?
Zhang Shuling didn't speak, but Lao Bai spoke first: Zhang Shuling! You're crazy, it wants to see snow, it's summer, where to look for snow?
When Zhang Shuling heard this, he smiled at Lao Bai and said: There is no snow, I can make a snow, but it is not winter snow. After that, he said to the summer cicada: It's not winter snow, is it okay?
After hearing this, Xia Cicada also said: As long as I see what snow is like before I die, as a Xia Cicada, I have never known what snow is like!
So after listening to Xia Chan's words, Zhang Shuling said with a slight smile: You wait a little, I will make the snow immediately... Then I got ready to go out...
And the old Bai on the side, when he saw Zhang Shuling saying that he could make snow, he also looked at him suspiciously...
After a short time, Zhang Shuling came back, still carrying a bag of white powder in his hand. He poured the white powder out of the plastic bag, poured it into a plastic cup, and mixed the water with the white powder in the right proportions...
After a while, the white powder turned into real snow, and he scattered the "artificial snow" in the air, allowing the summer cicada to watch...
I thought you were just "artificial snow powder" in how you made snow? Lao Bai sneered on the side.
Then why don't you use it, the spell is conjured? Zhang Shuling looked at Lao Bai with a sneering appearance and said displeasedly.
Do you think that changing the order of the four seasons in the world will not cause chaos in the world? Lao Bai said unhappily.
Hum! Zhang Shuling snorted lightly.
And when the summer cicada looked at the "artificial snow" floating in the air, he was stunned for a moment and said: Is this snow? White, light, ethereal...
The snowflakes of the "artificial snow" fell all over the sky, like goose feathers, one after another, and landed on the weak wings of the summer cicada. It felt the temperature of the snow and was cold. Then it sniffed the snow with its nose...
Snow has no taste, but snow has a temperature, and snow has a color. The summer cicada said lightly.
Immediately, Xia Cicada looked at the "artificial snow" in the sky and slowly closed her eyes. It was able to see snow before it died, and although it was not real snow, it could be regarded as seeing snow, so it went with peace of mind...
And after Zhang Shuling saw that the cicada was not breathing, he buried its weak body under the willow tree... Hopefully, its soul will be able to see real snow when winter comes.
