"Why...... Can't get close to the fire? Dongfu asked with a slight stammer. He's starting to understand something.

Han Bing stretched out her hand to lean over the fire, making sure that there was no danger, and then slowly sat down, the fire reflecting on the white skirt on her feet. It was warm. It turns out that in the dark night, there is a fire, which is such a beautiful thing.

"Grandma Shi just can't approach anything with light, she can't live in the sun. She couldn't touch even a ray of sunshine at all. She wasn't allowed to touch the fire. As long as there is sunlight and fire, she is not allowed to approach. Otherwise, the whole body will fester. ”

The fire was warm. Dongfu shuddered. What kind of life? Living in the darkness forever? What's the difference between living like that and staying in hell? Dongfu has always thought that he is very miserable, without parents and relatives. Now I know that there are other pains in this world.

"That could be a disease." Han Bing smiled softly, as if telling a very ordinary story. "Mrs. Shi is like this, Master's Master is like this, and Master is like this."

"So they all stay in the ice cave and never touch the sun?" Dongfu asked softly while carrying the fire.

"yes. Because Shi Taizu loved Shi Taizu so much, he traveled all over the mountains and rivers, searched all over the world, and found this ice cave here. Accompanied her to live in the ice cave for more than ten years. It was because Mrs. Shi couldn't come out to see the sun, and she was afraid that she would be lonely, so Shi Taizu dug this star ladder for her, so that she could come and see the stars at night. ”

Dongfu was silent, watching the fire crackle. The cold and cold mother-in-law is still happy, she has a master who loves her and accompanies her, so in this cold ice cave, there is actually a strong sense of love and warmth, which is much happier than Chang'e's Guanghan Palace.

Dongfu raised his head and looked at Han Bing again: "Han Bing, can't you either?" ”

Han Bing smiled softly and nodded, as if this was something too common.

Dongfu's eyes flashed: "Why don't you try, maybe you can walk in the sun." You see, you can not sit by the fire? ”

Han Bing was still smiling softly, but there were tears in his eyes: "I've tried it a long time ago, and I've tried it many times. When I was very young, after listening to what the master said, I was very unwilling and quietly ran into the sun. However, as long as it is exposed to the sun, it will really hurt and fester. It's scary. She rolled up her sleeves slightly, and Dongfu saw that under the firelight, there were faint scars on her smooth arms, like big circles, which could not be seen if she was not careful.

Dongfu gently lowered her sleeve and gently stretched out his arm to wrap his arms around her. The sudden upsurge of distress and pity made him so sad that he didn't want to speak.

These big clear and pure eyes are destined not to live in the sun. How beautiful the sunset is, how red the peach blossoms are, how green the lake is, everything will shine with the golden light of life under the sun. But the ice is never visible.

Han Bing quietly let him hug him, sat still, and laughed softly for a while: "Actually, I'm used to it." Every day in the ice cave, the days go by slowly. Isn't it good now? ”

Dongfu didn't speak, but suddenly jumped up and said, "I've warmed the rice, let's eat together." He took out the stone bowl from the basket and put it on the fire. The stone transmits heat, and after a while, the heat slowly rises.

Han Bing looked at it but shook his head and smiled: "I can't eat these greasy ones, you can eat them, and I'll get some splashes to eat when I go back." ”

Dongfu stood up: "Didn't you say it earlier?" Then I won't eat it either. With that, he put the bowl back into the basket, picked up the ice, and the two jumped down the hole together. Han Bing turned around, looking at the stars in the dark blue night sky with some reluctance. Dongfu pulled her with a smile: "I'll accompany you every day to come and see, okay?" ”

Han Bing shook his head slightly: "You still have a lot to do." It's a lot more important than looking at the stars. ”

Dongfu was slightly startled in his heart and looked at Han Bing. I wonder how she said that? For so many days, Han Bing had been smiling faintly, taking him here and there, and never asked him anything. How would she know?

Han Bing knew that he was looking at her, but he didn't speak, only pulled another piece of silk on the wall, and the sound of Kaka sounded on the top. I think the Nine Songs Stone was put back into the ground.

Dongfu hurriedly went to pull the wellhead to listen to the rope, with a soft sound, the square stone completely separated the stars in the sky, Han Bing saw that he had closed the mechanism, and then slowly walked down the spiral of the star ladder, and said lightly as he walked: "You have been asleep for many days." When I was asleep, I kept talking nonsense. ”

Dongfu blushed a little. What did he say? Calling Mother? Or are you chanting the name of Sam'er?

Han Bing looked back at him and didn't leave, laughed, and said, "Let's go, it's actually nothing, it's nonsense, I can't hear it clearly." ”

Dong Fu followed behind nechly, touching his head, not knowing what to say.

Out of the small hole, Han Bing stood at the mouth of the black wind cave, slapped his palms twice, and shouted: "Qingqing." And the serpent slipped through the darkness. Dongfu was still sitting in front, letting Han Bing hug him tightly, holding the rope tightly.

If there is a big snake to climb up, it is much faster. After a while, he came out of the cave and saw the platform of the ice cave that was shining with white light.

Han Bing came down first, walked onto the platform, and exhaled softly. Dongfu saw that Qingqing did not come, so he turned his head again and dived back into the darkness. With Qingqing here, no one can live in this wind tunnel.

Cold Ice stood on the platform for a moment. Dongfu looked at her. There is only one wind tunnel between the ice cave and the world outside the star ladder, but for the ice, it is definitely two worlds.

The outside world, just pitch black, with the occasional star. But there must be no sunlight, otherwise, it is death. This cold ice cave with white light is her world, a lonely world for one person.

Dongfu thought of his hatred, and thought of the scattered ginseng flower. I think of my beautiful, strong, and infatuated mother. He still has a lot to do. If he could, he would make Ice less lonely. But right now, not yet.
