The matter between Yaxian and Grandma Chi was resolved, and Li Lingze and the volunteers took care of Grandma Chi's funeral. Huainan Africa will bury Grandma Chi on the back mountain where Crow used to live. Crow feathers.
Li Ling didn't know what Huainan's intention was, but Lili who was following him knew it very well. He looked up at Huainan, and followed silently all the way.
Before everyone left, Huainan looked at the door that was gradually closing, and there were still those earth spirits looking at her eagerly inside. I am afraid that they will never come here again.
The moment the door closed, Huainan stopped him again, rushed back into the room, and stuffed all the wood that Qingzi had carved into his bag.
Li Lingze looked confused. When he got home, he watched Huainan return to his bedroom. Li Lingze and Yang Lan looked at each other outside. They both felt that for some reason, Huainan was a little strange recently, not like before. Lively, occasionally dull, listless, and sometimes seems to have a lot of thoughts.
Put those logs on the bookshelf one by one, and look at the earth spirits running all over the ground. It is not an option to put them in the inn. After all, there are too many guests coming and going in the inn every day. Finally, Huainan went to Teacher Ye Li to discuss. His house has a big yard, and he is the only one living in it, so you shouldn't mind putting it in his place temporarily, right?
What's more, there are already three earth spirits living in his house.
Ye Li didn't mind hearing what Huainan said, but he just gave Huainan half a month. After half a month, not only the current earth spirits, but also the three former earth spirits were taken away together.
Half a month is also good, Huainan hurriedly agreed, in addition to attending classes, helping Dad look at the store, and being a small model for Mom, the rest of the time is to take the raccoon around the town, looking for places where the earth spirits can be released.
In the blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival passed, and Huainan hadn't found a place yet, but it was Su Mo's calligraphy and painting exhibition on the Dragon Boat Festival. Su Mo saw that Huainan didn't go, and asked why. Send Huainan to study in his calligraphy and painting hall in the provincial capital.
Li Ling promised to go home and ask Huainan's opinion, but Huainan directly refused. Li Lingze didn't even mention Su Mo's name.
Half a month before the summer vacation, in order to encourage the students, the school took everyone to visit a place called Zheng Gong Academy. This Zheng Gong Academy was built on Mount Hong, about five kilometers northeast of the city. Legend has it that during the Spring and Autumn Period, sages and sages had already established academies here to give lectures and teach apprentices.
Regarding this Mount Hong, Huainan also read the records of Mount Hong in a book of local historical buildings and folklore compiled and published by Li Lingze. At that time, the records were nothing special, but the last few old people relayed, saying I once saw that the leaves falling on the steps will walk by themselves, and the seeds left in autumn will walk out of the fields by themselves. And the Zhenggong Temple next to the Zhenggong Academy has never been cleaned, but it has always been clean.
In the past, when Huainan couldn't see monsters, it was only interesting to read. Now I went to the book again, and suddenly thought, how could the leaves and seeds walk by themselves? Could there be monsters?
?Looking at Liliu next to him, Liliu was very excited to hear that there were monsters, but it was a pity that pets were not allowed on school trips, so he turned his head and continued to sleep.
The next day at the foot of the hill, the bus got on and off, and the teacher counted the number of students and took everyone up the hill.
From ten o'clock in the morning to three o'clock in the afternoon, until the end of the tour, everyone took the bus back to school, and Huainan did not see the monster legends about leaves and grain that the old people said.
On the contrary, the Zhenggong Temple was indeed clean and spotless, and there seemed to be traces of incense offerings.
When writing travel notes at night, Huainan suddenly thought of the Zhenggong Temple. It might be a good place to put the earth spirits in the temple. After discussing with Lili, he went to Ye Li's house to pick up the earth spirits early the next morning. Lili and Lili went to Hongshan by car, changed cars halfway, and when they climbed the mountain, it was almost noon.
After taking a break, I took the bread I bought at the foot of the mountain and ate it by myself while feeding the raccoons. Those earth spirits surrounded me and seemed to want to eat it too.
Huainan gave them some bread crumbs.
A villager passing by on the top of the mountain saw a child in Huainan sitting under a cypress tree in front of the temple feeding a black cat. He thought it was a child from the bottom of the mountain, so he told Huainan to go home after feeding the stray cat, and not to wander around the mountain alone.
After resting, Huainan bowed in front of the statue, looked at the shelves on both sides, and placed the carved wood one by one. The earth spirits surrounded Huainan, because they couldn't speak, they could only hiss.
Lili walked around the temple, but found no trace of the monster, so he went to lie down on the steps in front of the door to bask in the sun bored.
Huainan was tidying up when he suddenly heard a "Hey" from the raccoon outside the door and bowed his head.Body, face pressed against the steps, looking at something.
Huainan hurried over, only to see a few leaves moving in the grass beside the steps.
Huainan was taken aback, a walking leaf? Sure enough, there was a monster, picked up a nearby branch and flipped a leaf over.
Under the leaves, a black round, furry thing fell upside down.
This thing is really too small, just a little bit bigger than a cypress tree. When it was thrown to the ground, it couldn't turn over by itself, and its four short legs were dangling in the air.
Huainan stretched out a branch to help it turn over, and the thing got under the leaves again, and continued to move with the leaves on its back.
Passed through the three-leaf grass, and finally got into a crack in the stone.
Huainan was surprised, "What is this?"
Liliu didn't know, Huainan jumped down the steps, and leaned over the stone crevice to watch, but the crevice was too short to see what was inside. Then I took the branch and stretched it into the crevice of the rock to pick it up. After a long time, only a few fresh seeds came out, nothing else.
Huainan found it strange to pick up the seeds, only to see those earth spirits hissing and looking to the other side of the steps. Huainan hurriedly turned over, only to see a few little monsters that were the same as just now squeezed out from the cracks in the rocks under the steps, and the leaves in their hands were gone.
Huainan hurriedly pushed aside the grass, ready to catch one to see what it was. The roots of the grass shook, and those little monsters noticed that one raised its head, its round eyes were facing Huainan, and after a moment, it gave a chirping sound and escaped without a trace. without a trace.
Huainan was also stunned, and hurriedly went to catch the rest, scrambling in the grass, but he didn't catch the last one.
Searching through the grass and crevices in the courtyard, I didn't see any trace of the little monster again. Huainan was panting because he thought it was early summer, so he took off his little coat and put it on the branch, and continued to tidy up the puppets. .
After setting them up one by one, I found a way to seal them with Lili, and sealed the puppets in the barrier, so that even if ordinary people enter the temple, they can't see the existence of puppets.
After tidying up, Huainan told those land spirits not to run around, and to hide if there is any danger, and will come to see them after a while. When walking out of the Zhenggong Temple, the breeze was blowing, the leaves of the cypress trees rustled, and from time to time, dry cypress leaves fell, and there was no one around.
Huainan looked down at the bluestone slab under his feet. It was covered with green moss, and there were scattered pine and cypress leaves and dead leaves of other unknown trees on the moss.
Occasionally, the scattered small flowers in the corner of the wall bloom brightly alone.
"It's such a nice and quiet place." Huainan picked up the raccoons, waved to the land spirits poking out of the Zhenggong Temple, and let them go back, stepping on the bluestone slabs all the way down the mountain.
Occasionally, villagers in twos and threes pass by on the mountain road,
At the turn of the intersection, Huainan was turning his head to tell Lili behind him to hurry up, but when he turned around, he bumped into an old man, Huainan was startled, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." When he looked up at the old man, he only looked at this old man. The old man was estimated to be in his eighties or nineties, with a gray beard, wearing a shabby cloak, and holding half of the floating dust in his hand, he looked a little fairy-like.
The old man looked down at Huainan, ignored her, and continued walking up the mountain. When Lili passed by, he glanced lightly, but couldn't see any waves.
Huainan felt strange, seeing the pedestrians around him looking at him strangely, he hurriedly smiled, bent down to pick up Lili, shook his head as he walked, felt that something was wrong, and said softly: "Lili, do you Do you feel a little cold all of a sudden?¡± (Remember this site website: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
