In Yuanshen, no one understands holy relics better than me

At this point, she reacted and covered her mouth cutely: "Do you think I talk too much? I just keep talking."

"Of course not! In fact, I'm also afraid of being lonely, but I'm not very good at chatting, so I feel lively when someone is talking in my ear..."

Xia Tian came from the heart without any falsehood: "If you talk more, Dad won't be lonely, just like now, when you talk in my ear, I don't feel lonely anymore."

Most girls will blush when they hear these remarks, right?It seems to have a taste of confession.

But Xiao Gong did not misunderstand at all, she nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, I have been rushing to make fireworks for the past few days, and I don't have much time to chat with others, I am almost suffocating!"

Xia Tian can imagine that since the lock-up order and the eye-hunting order have just been lifted, there must be many people celebrating, and fireworks are the best props for celebrating.

"Sure enough, it will be very busy during this period, right? In fact, there is no need to take so many business. Isn't there other fireworks shops?"

"Yes, but because of the lockdown, many of them are closed, only our home still has materials..."

Xiaogong, to be precise, is the Naganohara Fireworks Shop, and it will never refuse the request of others to make fireworks: "People who can set off fireworks are all to commemorate a certain event. If this kind of commemoration is missed, there may be no chance...so No matter how busy you are, you must agree to everything!"

Such a good girl is pitiful, Xia Tian asked foolishly: "Isn't it hard work?"

Xiaogong shook his head: "Although it's hard work, I don't hate it at all... In other words, it should be enjoyable, right?"

"enjoy?"

"Ah."

He nodded again: "Born in a family of fireworks, I seem to have been obsessed with this feeling of "bang" exploding light since I was a child..."

An adjective like a child, Xia Tian's "hehe" smile.

"..."

He said a lot more, and at the end, it was Xiaogong’s third apology: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I talked a little too much, but just like fireworks, the topic of interest is also fleeting. When you are interested, say it happily and leave no regrets!"

"Then say it happily and leave no regrets."

"Then you don't think I'm annoying, so I'll ask! I like to ask other people questions!"

"Just ask."

Outside the window, it was already dark. During this journey, Xiao Gong was almost always telling her stories. This time, she also wanted to understand the world that Xia Tian traveled through.

"You came from Liyue, right? Liyue's side said that it was you who helped protect Liyue from the recovery demon god, right?"

Although I'm sure, but I still ask again, just in case, if I make a mistake, it will be embarrassing.

Xia Tian said modestly: "It's not that exaggerated, there are also many other people's efforts... To be precise, it is the efforts of the people of Quanliyue!"

"The first news I got was that their god left suddenly. I thought it would become even more chaotic than Dao Wife, but I didn't expect so many people to stand up after the god disappeared... Liyue, it's amazing country."

Xiaogong expressed his feelings: "I can't imagine Dao's wife without the general."

"Well, if you really want to imagine, you can imagine Mond. The god of Mond has not appeared for a long time, but Mond is still very beautiful..."

I am afraid that in the future, Mond's god will continue to disappear, but... when needed, there will be an existence called a hero instead!

"Yes, yes, I heard that there are almost no rules there, right? Everyone can live happily according to their own ideas..."

Xiaogong looked imaginative, and Xia Tian hurriedly stopped: "It can't be said that there are no rules! It can only be said that there are relatively few restrictions."

No rules, no rules, if there were no rules, it would be a mess!

"Hey." Xiao Gong innocently smiled, and felt that he was thinking too simple, and then thought of it and said: "My father, I received a gift from an old customer before. What winery is it..."

Xia Tian immediately gave the answer: ""Dawn Winery", the dandelion wine is very famous. "

"That's right, that's the one! It's rare to see my father drinking so happily, and he told me how good the wine tasted all night... I don't want to give it a sip, but I'm being stingy!"

"That's because Xiao Gong hasn't grown up yet!"

"It's a little more than a year away from the age of drinking..." Although Xiao Gong likes to play with children, when she is considered a child, she is very resistant. She defended seriously: "But I have grown up. ! At my age, some people of the older generation are already married and have children!"

Inazuma's age limit for drinking is higher than Mond's, with Mond as the cutoff, while Daozuma's is 20 years old.

But the age at marriage is the exact opposite.

It may be because some perverts of the old aristocrats abused young girls. The marriage age stipulated by New Mond must be at least 14 years old. The actual marriage age is mostly 20 years old.

In Daoqi, sixteen is allowed to marry.

Of course, this was a very early rule, and it has not been revised. Nowadays, very few people get married at the age of 16.

"..."

"..."

The two chatted a lot, mainly because Xiao Gong talked a lot, told stories about her childhood, and stories related to "Xiamen", and even said the word "Summer" in her dream, I don't know what it refers to Season, or refers to the people around.

Looking at Xiao Gong leaning on her shoulder in Xia Tian, ​​she really didn't have much defense, and she didn't know how much advantage she would be taken by men from this angle.

She smiled lightly, her eyes were clear and bright, without any extravagant thoughts.

Xia Tian leaned back in the carriage so that Xiao Gong could better rest on his chest and stretch his torso better.

Let's sleep for a while, and we will be able to reach the Guardian Forest in the middle of the night.

Big raccoon monster, to be honest, I am looking forward to finding it, I don't know what it will look like...

Chapter 728 The Big Raccoon Demon Appears!

During the day, because of the cover of the greenery, the guarding forest is like night, and only the light of the dense treetops intertwined can be seen, which is as sparse and bright as the starry sky.

Stepping into the night, the sheltered green grass is replaced by luminous lamp grass, which is densely covered with flowers and trees, making the guarding forest seem like daytime, dreamlike and unreal.

This is a magical forest, with magical flowers and plants, scattered crimson torii gates, and magical stories. Then, it is not strange to have a magical "big raccoon demon", right?

The carriage stopped at the side of the main road, and Xia Tian and Xiao Gong walked uphill for a while before seeing the intersection into the forest.

It was already in the middle of the night, and the entrance emitted a blue-white glow gathered by lamp plants, like some kind of entrance to another dimension, which made people daydream.

"Hey!"

Before he could take a step, he heard a voice behind him, it was Araki Ichito, who was running panting, his trouser legs were stained with mud, and sweat dripped down along the lines of his muscles.

When he came in front of Xia Tian and Xiao Gong, he supported his knees with his hands, his face was full of puzzlement, he was gasping for breath and surprised: "How can you be so fast? I didn't rest for a moment, I just drank two sips of water... you are How is it faster than me?"

If only Xia Tian is so fast, he can still understand that there may be some unique secret skills, after all, he doesn't know the depth of strength.

But Xiaogong shouldn't!

There have been several adventures in the same company before, and every time Araki Yidou ran ahead, and after a long while, Xiao Gong chased after him exhausted.

Xiao Gong probably recalled those memories of chasing after him in embarrassment. This time the situation changed, and it was inevitable that he was somewhat proud of revenge, but he did not hide it. He said the truth: "Because we are in a car!"

"..."

Obsessed for a moment, Ararataki Yidou suddenly realized the self-portrait of his forehead: "Damn it! Forgot to have this trick!"

I regret it very much, but it’s useless. He is poor and white, and owes a lot of debts. He has no money for a car ride at all, so he can only find reasons and insist: "Hmph! A man should keep his feet on the ground! Such a small distance makes him feel tired, like What does it look like!"

"Yes yes yes." Xiao Gong followed his father and didn't like to argue with others, but he would fight back a little bit: "But I'm not a man? I'm also a girl!"

Although because of his carefree personality, not many people treat Xiaogong as a girl... To be precise, they don't treat Xiaogong as a delicate girl. In fact, there are quite a lot of boys who secretly admire them. Some elders have also asked their fathers to do it. Several times to match, but the old man pretended not to hear it and perfunctory it.

Araki Yidou pointed at Xia Tian: "I'm not talking about you! I'm talking about him! He's always a man, right?"

Because of Xia Tian's appearance, Jiujo Shaluo rejected his invitation to duel.

Because of the appearance of summer, he missed the best time to eat, thus losing to the fox.

Because of the appearance of Xia Tian, ​​Xiao Gong is no longer close to himself...

In fact, whether Xia Tian appears or not, Jiutiao Shaluo will not agree to a duel, nor can he win the fox, Xiao Gong is not close to him at all... But people who live in their own world probably can't figure it out, anyway Thousands of words merged into one sentence, it's all Xia Tian's fault!

Although I don't talk about the step of resentment, there must be some unhappiness, and it will inevitably be targeted.

Xiaogong hurriedly chatted with the maintainers, and even made up memories that didn't exist: "I asked Xia Tian to accompany me in the car. It's very dangerous for a girl to ride alone!"

She is not the kind of girl who would feel dangerous in a car alone.

Huang Taki didn't answer for a fight, snorted coldly, and said, "Although you guys arrive first, I will definitely find the "big raccoon monster" first, just wait and see! "

Immediately, without wasting time, he rushed into the guarding forest first.

Xia Tian and Xiao Gong followed behind, not worried about the outcome at all, they took a leisurely walk, as if they were on a tryst.

Xiaogong doesn't hate walking quietly in the forest path with Xia Tian like this, but he just doesn't understand: "Aren't you looking for the "big raccoon demon"?Or do you think it doesn't exist at all? "

Xia Tian said calmly: "To be honest, I really think that the possibility of the existence of the "big raccoon monster" is very unlikely. "

After saying this, Xiaogong didn't understand even more: "Then why are you here?"

"Help you find the ore! Didn't you come to find a batch of purple-white saltpeter for the sake of beautiful fireworks? It must be very heavy if there are a lot of them? Don't you need help?"

Xia Tian's reason is hard to refute, in a sense it is hard to resist this kindness, and even a little bit happy

"Well, I'm glad you're willing to help me..."

The tree-lined path where only the two of them were there chilled the fiery aura of Xiaogong, more like a restrained little girl following closely behind the boy she liked.

No, this state doesn't look like me at all!

Xiaogong quickly shook his head, throwing away the distracting thoughts about going berserk: "No, I'm asking why you agreed to the competition! Since you think the big raccoon monster doesn't exist, why do you want to compete?"

Xia Tian sighed helplessly: "Because it's very troublesome, if you don't agree, you will definitely be stuck all the time, the type of person who just doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back!"

There is another reason that I didn't say, if I don't agree, then Kujo Sara will have to go to a sumo match with Arataki Ichito, and I don't even want to imagine that kind of scene.

"But if the "big raccoon monster" doesn't exist, or if there is no winner, Ichito Araki will definitely continue to haunt you!He was that kind of kid. "

Xiao Gong's statement, of course Xia Tian has thought about it, so he came to the guarding forest, he was prepared.

"follow me!"

Going uphill for a while, Xia Tian subconsciously prepared to grab Xiao Gong's hand, and quickly realized that the person beside him was not his girlfriend, and hurriedly withdrew his hand to make a gesture to speed up his pace.

Not understanding what Xia Tian was planning, Xiao Gong put aside the work of searching for ore and followed closely behind.

Go up the stairs scattered with torii gates until you reach the depths of the forest, where the monster stone statue that looks like a reclining Buddha stands motionless.

Snapped.

Xiao Gong clasped his hands together, bowed first, and then said in surprise: "You know this place too? Have you ever been here?"

"You've been here too?" Xia Tian was an accident, Wubaizang had set some kind of enchantment spell around this Buddha statue, and ordinary people couldn't get in at all.

"Well, that was my first time looking for saltpeter, and I lost my way...hehe." Xiaogong rubbed his head silly: "I came here by accident, and this monster Buddha statue is quite cute, so every time Come here... the feeling of praying?"

"Cute? I am the majestic Wubaizang, the "Hidden God Baosheng Sizheng" personally appointed by the General!How cute is it? "

Suddenly there was a sound, as if the words were exploding in the ear, it was a voice that went straight to the heart, and it was indeed a bit majestic.

Although Xiaogong has been here a few times, he has never heard such a voice. He only thinks that there is a relatively old stone statue in front of him...

Inexplicably nervous: "Who is talking?"

Xia Tian patted her on the shoulder to make her relax: "It's the guy you think is cute!"

"Hey!!!" Xiaogong looked at the huge stone statue in front of him, with a look of disbelief: "This stone statue is the big monster Wubaizang hundreds of years ago?"

As the leader of the civet cat race, Wubaizang is somewhat famous, and his image and legends are written in many "weird annals".

Facing this panicked questioning, Wubaizang was quite dissatisfied: "Otherwise, who else could it be? Little girl of the flame, you have talked so much with me, but now you are still afraid that I will fail?"

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's just... Then, haven't you heard everything I said before?"

Xiao Gong suddenly became shy, like a little girl whose secret was discovered, a rare expression.

How could Wubaizang understand the girl's shyness, and answered quite honestly: "Of course! The civet cats have a good memory. You said you were a little girl from the Naganohara family, and you said a lot about your father's complaints, and Fireworks, summer that I keep talking about every time..."

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

In the forest, a monkey cry suddenly sounded, and Xiao Gong amplified the sound as much as possible to stop Wubaizang's words.

Her eyes kept aiming at Xia Tian, ​​her nervous heart beating wildly.

Xiao Gong is a caring big sister in the eyes of children, a reliable house of everything in the eyes of friends, and a sensible and good boy in the eyes of elders... With this layer of identity, it is doomed that it is difficult to speak out what is in the heart, and no one can tell.

So after discovering this moss-covered Buddha statue that seemed to be forgotten in Zhenshouzhisen, she took this stone statue as her own secret talk point, happy and unhappy, about her family, about her friends Yes, about Dao Wife... said a lot.

And the most, of course, are the stories about fireworks, as well as the imagination about "summer".

Of course, this "Summer" is not that summer, it's just her own fantasy. The anthropomorphic image of "Summer" in this season is the feeling of an invisible friend, which can only be known by oneself, and the society will die if it is spread out. .

She really loves summer, the summer night sky, and the fireworks on a clear summer night.

This is the fantasy of a girl or a child, and it is not a shameful thing... But if there is someone called Xia Tian by her side, then even the cracks in the ground may not be able to accommodate this shame.
