On July 15, many academic departments have already had a holiday. Today is the last day of class in the medical department where Yuan Qingsu is located.

He is the only one who comes to the school today, and the Literature Department had a holiday last week.

It's still a final report.

After the report, he went downstairs and thought about whether to go back to the shrine first, put the book in his hand back, or go directly to the store street to buy birthday gifts for Himeguchi No. 16 Nights.

"Yuanjun."

In the stairs corridor, Yuan Qingsu turned around, and Yacai stood on the stairs platform and looked at him.

Out of breath, it seemed that he was running and catching up.

She is very beautiful. Although she is not as good as Kamira Yuko and Himemiya Shijiya, the light around her is also different from other people in the crowd.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Qingsu said in confusion.

"I..." Masana took a breath, "I, Inaba, and Kishida and Kishida's girlfriend, plan to rent a car for a trip during the holiday."

"Do Kishida have a girlfriend?" Genko was stunned, then smiled, "It's pretty good, remember to take some scenery photos for me."

"No." Yacai immediately denied it.

"no?"

"Do you want to be with us?"

Yacai looked at him straight, and Yuan Qingsu was about to speak, and footsteps came from the top of the stairs, and Inaha and Kishida walked down.

The two stood behind Yacai, looking at him silently with her, but their eyes were telling something.

What exactly is, the source of Qingsu is not clear. The only thing he knows is the reluctance they convey.

He suddenly thought that since he was entangled by Shen Lin Yuzi in the library in April, he spent less and less time with his three friends.

I no longer have coffee with them during lunch break, study together, and go to the Gotemba to play basketball.

I can’t remember when the last time I had a cocktail party and shopping after school.

Recently, he almost didn't even say much. He went to class by step and disappeared immediately after class just like today.

Yuan Qingsu looked at the three people who tried to keep him, and had an inexplicable premonition in her heart that if she rejected them this time, the friendship between the four people would be completely over.

'Get, lose, this is also a curse,' he thought to himself.

As long as you have a heart, there will be mantras everywhere between heaven and earth.

......When did he become such a loving person? When did he think about this when facing his friend who tried to keep him?

But if you cannot do this, what qualifications are you qualified to practice?

He remembered the first time he went to the Shiratsuyama Shrine. On the lonely mountain, there was only one lonely shrine. In the shrine, there was only Kannaro Oko and her two Shikigamis.

He remembered that the witch was bound by a spell and could not have feelings.

There is also the place where Jimumi Shizuo Night, the Shiratsuyama Shrine has no electricity or signals, and ordinary people cannot live at all, but she is not dissatisfied with it.

Zhuge Liang said in his "Advising Your Son" that "no indifference can one be able to show one's ambition, and no peace can one's a long way to achieve one's ambition."

Wang Yiqing, a Taoist priest in the Ming Dynasty, wrote in the Interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, "The heart of a sage is like a bright mirror stopping water. When things arrive, they shine, and when things go away, they are empty."

Not to mention other times, when practicing, you must be calm and focused. Everything is the same.

"I'm sorry." He said, "I can't go."

"Why?" Yacai asked immediately.

Daoye gently pulled her sleeve from behind.

"My mother asked me to go back to Shiguo." Yuan Qingsu smiled, "You guys have fun."

He waved his hand, turned around and walked down, turned around the corner of the stairs, and disappeared from the sight of the three.

◇

Yuan Qingsu didn't take the tram and walked back to Baishan Shrine.

Entering the secret realm from the big banyan tree, climbed up the stairs, and returned to his small wooden house in the mountains.

Pushing open the door and putting the book down, he looked around the cabin.

There are three rooms in total, one living room, one bedroom and one bathroom.

I didn't pay attention before, but now I realize that there are very few things in the house. Apart from the wood stove, there is only one dining table and a bookshelf.

But it is not empty at all. No matter where you go, you can get books at will - there are so many books.

In addition to books, there are notes given to him by Shen Lin Yuzi, and there are also many notes he has recorded himself in his practice.

When Shen Lin Yuzi came to find him, he was in the vegetable field.

She stood on the ridge of the field and watched him water the eggplant.

"Miss Shen Lin came to me for the first time, what's wrong?" Yuan Qingsu asked.

"Are you in a bad mood?" Shen Lin Yuzi looked at his face.

After asking, before Yuan Qingsu could answer, she said without interest: "Go out with me."

"I won't go to Kabukicho again, are you?" Yuan Qingsu came out of the vegetable field and picked a tender cucumber from the green leaves.

He washed it with water, broke it into two pieces, and gave the section with the little yellow flowers to Shenlin Yuzi.

"No." Yuko Shin-Lin took the cucumber and "go to buy a gift for Shiliuye."

"I'm about to go." Yuan Qingsu took a bite and started eating.

The two of them set off in the sun.

"Have you thought about what to buy?" Yuan Qingsu asked.

"Where did you buy her the ring?" Shen Lin Yuzi stuttered in cucumber.

“Omotesando.”

"Go to Omotesando to see, she should like the things there."

"There is no problem with the idea, but she has also bought things in Ginza."

"Go to Omotesando first, then to Ginza."

"Miss Kamiyashi," he reminded her, "Sixteen Nights are different from you and me. She buys sports car and RV whenever she wants, and what she wants in Omotesando and Ginza, do you think you will be left there, waiting for us to buy?"

Shen Lin Yuzi stopped, Yuan Qingsu took another step, forming the angle she looked down at him.

"Then where did you want to go?" asked Shen Lin Yuzi.

"Go to luxurious places she hasn't visited, such as Aoyama, Roppongi, etc."

When Shen Lin Yuzi took a step forward, she said, "You seem to have thought a lot in order to buy her birthday gift."

She threw the leftover cucumber tips under an oak tree by the stone steps.

Yuan Qingsu followed with a smile.

"Miss Shenlin, I have something to report to you."

He said what happened in the morning, but Shen Lin Yuzi didn't care at all, and didn't say a single opinion.

Whether it is the shopping street in Qingshan or the shopping mall in Roppongi, brand new shops next to each other, and in the huge glass windows, the dazzling array of goods is dazzling.

Finally, Shenlin Yuzi bought a set of coffee-making utensils.

Yuan Qingsu considered that Ji Miu-Shiruo often wore a kimono and her hair was always wrapped around, so she bought a hairpin.

There are two blooming white cherry blossoms on the hairpin.

"It's better than my tableware." On the way back, Shen Lin Yuzi said this.

"I give you tableware because I like the way you eat, it's very elegant; I give her hairpin because she probably likes these things, and she always has her hair tied up."

"I said I like me, but I gave her more attentive gifts."

"Didn't I explain?"

"You should be with her. She is as beautiful as me and more humane than me. I wish you from the bottom of my heart." Shen Lin Yuzi said.

Yuan Qingsu's heart was inexplicably angry.

The tram on the light rail side rushed over to chase the two of them.

In the carriage, the passengers' expressions could be seen clearly, like a set of frozen photos, quickly flipping through his eyes one by one.

In Yuan Qingsu's view, these scenery is like a set board, while the passengers in the tram are just actors on the stage.

At this moment, there were only him and Shen Lin Yuzi in the world.

"Miss Shen Lin, have you seen "Dream of Red Mansions"?" he asked lightly.

"I've seen it. "Where is a fragrant hill at the end of the sky?"

"It was only today that I suddenly understood why every time Lin Daiyu said that she was having a good relationship, Jia Baoyu didn't comfort her, but she lost her temper instead."

Shenlin Yuzi flashed with slender eyelashes, his movements were light, like a pair of temporarily grounded butterflies.

What she wanted to say, and the last thing she said was: "Go back."

"Okay." Yuan Qingsu responded.

Yuan Qingsu remembered that last time, when he and Ji Gong Shiliuye bought gifts for Shen Lin Yuzi, there was also a conflict.

The next day, on July 16, the group set out for Shikoku.

It takes 10 hours to drive from Tokyo to Kodoshima, and only one and a half hours to take a plane, so it is natural to take a plane.

As the Earth Spirit Shikigami, once injured, the White Mountain Shrine will also suffer disasters, so the Kan Lin Yuzi will not take her out normally.

But this time I was on a trip, so I took her with me.

There are cabins on the plane for practitioners, otherwise Shikigami that ordinary people cannot see can only stand.

Baizi's girl-like body in elementary school was very excited to sit in the big seat.

Her legs were shaking, her face pressed against the porthole, looking at the sea of ​​clouds.

The little butterfly flew beside her, and her whole body was lying on the porthole.

"Master Yuzi, Master Yuzi!" Little Butterfly turned around excitedly and gestured with her hands, "I saw so many, so many clouds! It turns out that the clouds are three-dimensional!"

"Really?" Shen Lin Yuzi asked with a smile as if coaxing the child.

"Yeah!" The little butterfly nodded vigorously.

Yuan Qingsu glanced at them and said:

"I came to Tokyo. In order to save money, I took a night bus. I spent ten hours with a pain in my waist and a sore neck. I had to endure the service station when I went to the toilet."

"What if I can't help it?" Ji Gong Shiliuye asked curiously.

"I have been back and forth between Shikoku and Tokyo several times. I haven't seen anyone who can't help it yet. I don't know what to do if those who can't help it."

Dong Lan brought the chopped cantaloupe melon.

This time when he came out, Ji Miyu Shiji also brought all Shikigami with him. Someone had to serve her wherever she went.

"Is it sweet?" Yuan Qingsu reached out to get it.

Ji Gong Shiliuye opened his hand.

"What's wrong? You can't eat a piece of cantaloupe?" Yuan Qingsu touched the back of her hand that was a little painful.

"Kneel down, I have something to ask you." Ji Gong Shiliuye's tone was high.

"What's the matter?" Yuan Qingsu looked at her.

"You think about it yourself."

"Aren't you going to ask me? Why did you make me think about it again?"

"If you can't figure it out, you won't stand up." Ji Gong Shiliuye said while eating the cantaloupe.

Yuan Qingsu didn't kneel down and didn't figure it out.

The plane landed in Takamatsu, and you need to take a ferry to Kodoshima.

Yuan Qingsu went to buy a boat ticket. When he came back, he looked at the two witches wearing straw hats and skirts. His elegant posture and perfect light and shadow reminded him of the paintings of the French painter Monet in literature class.

They were teasing the seagulls.

A seagull fell on each wooden stake on the ferry bridge.

The locals do not care about these birds at all, only foreign tourists will find it strange.

Soon, a radio broadcast of boarding came.

The three of them walked onto the boat with their luggage and sat on the bench on the deck.

The ferry sounds the whistle and leaves the shore. At this time, even if it grows at the ferry since childhood, the seagulls on the trest will still fly together.

The staff couldn't see Bai Zi, so Bai Zi could lie on the side of the boat with the appearance of a primary school student, looking like she was about to fall into the sea.

"ah--"

"Ah——" Little Butterfly louded her hands and shouted.

"The sea—"

"The sea—"

The sea is quiet and tender.

Yuan Qingsu raised his head and saw that the sky was blue, like a water-blue painted paper posted on the top of his head.

An airplane was pulling out a straight, snow-white line on this blue drawing paper with a white brush.

After looking for a while, he rubbed his slightly sour neck and said, "I feel a little sympathetic to Michelangelo."

Neither of the witches spoke.

Ji Gong Shiliu Ye seemed to be still angry about "Yuan Qingsu didn't remember what she wanted to ask."

"Michelangelo?" Fortunately, there is also a cute little butterfly.

"A Renaissance artist," explained Yuan Qingsu, "He painted a zenith mural for the Sistine Chapel, and after four years and five months, he must have exhausted his neck."

The little butterfly pointed his finger at the lower lip and looked blankly at the sky, with confused eyes that were completely confused.

The ferry sounded the whistle again and slowly landed on the dock.

Looking at the familiar scenery in front of him, Yuan Qingsu jumped off the deck excitedly.

"Where is your home?" Shen Lin Yuzi asked.

"You'll be there when you keep moving forward." Yuan Qingsu pointed to the path built along the coast.

Several people dragged the salute, Yuan Qingsu stuffed the salute to Dong Lan, and was blown by Ji Gong Shiliu Ye.

He didn't care and jumped to the breakwater wave by the sea.

"I liked to walk on it when I was a kid!" His hair was blown by the sea breeze, and his voice was about to fly. "I rode my bicycle to and from school in high school, and I still rode on it!"

On the left is a green hillside with huge white windmills on the hillside.

On the right is the sea. The sea surface is not monotonous blue, but is composed of countless blue colors, which are vast and boundless.

The waves are swaying, glowing with golden and silver waves.

After a while, the hillside on the left disappeared, and a forest rose from the ground, lush and lush.

Yuan Qingsu jumped off the breakwater wave, and the white zi and the little butterfly were still on it, running and playing.

"I remember there is a fruit tree here. Every year when I come back, I pick one when I pass by it." Yuan Qingsu said, finding the tree and picking three green fruits.

"Give it." He gave Shen Lin Yuzi and Ji Gong Shiliuye each.

"Can you eat it?" Ji Gong Shiliuye looked at the fruit in his hand.

"Of course I can eat it." Yuan Qingsu said, taking a bite.

"Yeah—" He made a satisfied voice.

Ji Gong Shiliu Ye looked at Shen Lin Yuzi, who picked up the fruit and took a bite.

"How is it?" Yuan Qingsu asked looking at her.

Shenlin Yuzi nodded slowly.

Ji Gong Shiliuye then took a bite with confidence, and then... he narrowed his eyes sorely.

She looked at the two of them in disbelief.

"Hahahaha!" Yuan Qingsu bent down with a smile.

Shen Lin Yuzi also laughed.

Ji Gong Shiliuye vomited the fruit in his mouth, pinched Yuan Qingsu's chin, and stuffed the fruit in his hand into his mouth.

"Um--"

Ji Gong Shiliuye didn't allow him to open his mouth, and rubbed his cheeks to help him chew.

"Ah, Lord Yuzi, Lord Yuzi, help me!" Baizi and the little butterfly ran back quickly.

"Woom!" A rabbit-like puppy chased the two.

The dog seemed to be able to see Shikigami, and Gensu shed tears while thinking.
Chapter completed!
