Chapter 39: Mooncakes

The wind blows and moves, the cold moon is silent, the tea is fragrant, and the flowers are sad.

The woman whispered: "Sister, I'm homesick, and I want to be ruthless and immortal." ”

Chang'e sighed faintly and said, "I'm homesick...... It's better not to go back now, not to mention that Jiuyan is waiting for you outside, just praising your father is troublesome enough, if he knows where your cave is located, I'm afraid he will be unfavorable to them. ”

"Father Kua wouldn't do anything like that. Hou Yi defended Kua's father in a low voice.

Chang'e was noncommittal to her husband's words, she turned the lid of the tea bowl with her slender jade fingers for a while, and then said: "The previous Kuafu didn't know, but now the Kuafu can't say, he is too obsessed with Shiji, and he did it for Shiji and me." ”

Hou Yi's eyes were slightly dark, over the years, Kuafu had asked him about Shi Ji, and he persuaded him, but it was useless, even if he told Kuafu that Shi Ji had fallen into a deep sleep and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, it still didn't make him dispel his thoughts about Shi Ji.

All three were silent.

......

Chang'e and Hou Yi went back to the house, the moon was gone, the laurel tree returned to its original position, all kinds of strange stones formed a circle again, Shi Ji stood under the laurel tree and smelled the faint fragrance of osmanthus, feeling the familiar fluctuations of various stones, accompanied by nineteen years of day and night, this is her temporary home, she insisted on living here.

After a long night, she looked for something to do, she took out the stone axe from her handkerchief, recited the wishful mantra, the palm-sized axe became the size of a millstone, Shi Ji sat cross-legged on the stone axe, she pressed the stone axe with both hands, and closed her eyes.

The stone axe ignited a five-colored flame, and the stone skin, stone slag, and stone powder on the ground were all thrown into the flames, all of which were the remains of the stone rock body, and the stone axe body was refined by the weathering of her body after her first wind disaster, and tonight she wanted to refine all the relics that fell from her body into the stone axe.

Shi Ji exhaled and practiced qi while refining the stone axe, she had no qualifications to waste time, there were no people who depended on people to survive freely, how could she slack off her rights, the fire burned for a whole night, and when she swallowed the last trace of oriental purple qi, she found herself sitting in a scorched earth.

"Where's the axe?"

Shi Ji touched it for a long time and didn't touch it.

"Burned?"

Shi Ji thought of a possibility, that is, the fire was too big and burned for too long, and there was no slag left in the axe, Shi Ji regretted for a while, "I use two things, and I really don't have the head." ”

She unwillingly dug through the blackened scorched earth, "Huh?" she found the bones, no, it should be said that it was a stone bone, a thin stone needle, and it was still shining with blue light.

Shi Ji carefully twisted up the half-inch-long small stone needle with two fingers and put it in the palm of his left hand.

"Is this your blade?" asked Hou Yi, who had gotten up early to clean the courtyard.

Shi Ji was asked, her blade is a stone axe, but this stone cone is made of her stone axe, how did it become like this, she can only say that she thinks about it day and night, she dreams that her clothes are torn and she mends her clothes all night yesterday.

Hou Yi thought that Shi Ji didn't hear it, so he asked again: "Shi Ji, do you use an awl?"

Awl? Shi Ji didn't know how to answer, so he nodded his head randomly.

"Shi Ji, how did your axe become like this?" Chang'e recognized the essence of the awl as soon as she walked out.

Shi Ji was embarrassed for a while, and she stubbornly told the story of refining an axe into a needle.

Not only Chang'e was happy, but even Hou Yi smiled.

"Actually, that's good, the axe isn't for you. Hou Yi said bluntly.

"Why doesn't the axe suit me?" Shi Ji looked puzzled, she felt that she had a good axe.

Hou Yi put down the broom and said: "The axe is a heavy blade, the heavier the axe, the more powerful it is, and the woman is not congenitally dominant in terms of strength. ”

Shi Ji understood that no matter how great her strength was, she could still be greater than the Great Witch Ancestor, thinking of her tragic experience of fighting against Kuafu, she was powerless for a while, and it was not easy to break her skin, let alone kill people.

Chang'e held the plate and sang the woman and said: "Your eldest brother is right, looking at the world and the world, except for the great god Pangu, the axe skills of the heavens are not bad, and none of our women are good at using axes. ”

"Oh. Shi Ji replied weakly, the blue light flashed, she scattered the wishful spell, and the half-inch-long needle was put into her handkerchief.

"Alright, don't think about it, come and eat. Chang'e put breakfast on the stone table outside.

Shi Ji walked over after a simple freshening up, and she saw three different kinds of cakes, as well as soup.

"Eat. Chang'e smiled and served her a bowl of soup.

Shi Ji grinned and smirked, she was able to eat the cake cooked by Chang'e herself, and the soup cooked by Chang'e herself.

"Laugh at what you laugh at, eat quickly. ”

"Sister, what's the name of this cake?" Shi Ji asked excitedly with a blink of his eyes while holding the round cake.

Chang'e smiled lightly and said, "I call it moon cakes." ”

Shi Ji smiled, his eyes brightened, "Mooncake, good name." ”

Hou Yi's deep voice was slightly hoarse, and he said movingly: "Your sister has been married to me for 10,000 years, and she hasn't been home once in 10,000 years. ”
