Chapter 30 - Shenmu
It was another week.
On this day, Mi Wan came out of the gym at home and unexpectedly discovered that the breakfast had changed from the hardships and simplicity of the past to the colorful ones. The fritters disappeared and turned into a crystal clear steamed dumpling. The white porridge was upgraded with fish, shrimp and seafood added to it. Even the porridge pickles had a plate of meat sauce.
“Holiday today?” Mi Wan sat at the dining table in doubt.
“No.” Zhangsao smiled and gave Mi Wan a small bag, and said carefully, “Be careful.”
Mi Wan took it, and took a small bite. The delicious fragrance she hadn’t tasted in a long time made her happy squint. This is not to say that this xiaolongbao can not be bought outside, but that the xiaolongbao of Zhangsao Bao is always better than the ones bought in small shops outside.
“Delicious?” Zhangsao asked.
“Well, this is the best Xiao Long Bao I’ve ever eaten, Sister Zhang, how do you make it so delicious?” Mi Wan praised.
“In fact, there is no skill, mainly because the crab yellow inside is peeled off by me, and then a little secret recipe is added.” Zhangsao couldn’t help but feel a little proud.
“Sister Zhang, since it’s not a festival, why did you suddenly prepare so much food for me?” After eating a weight-loss breakfast for almost a month, she suddenly became so extravagant that Mi Wan was still unable to adapt.
“Ye Guanjia said that the young lady had lost weight during this time and could rest for a few days.” Zhangsao explained.
In addition to the previous 20 pounds of thinness, Mi Wan lost nearly 40 pounds this month. More than forty pounds is a huge change no matter how fat a fat man was before. Now Mi Wan’s body and face have already taken shape.
“Miss, this is for you.” At this time, Ye Butler walked in from the door and handed Mi Wan a silver card.
“Is this?” Mi Wan looked at the colored sign on the card and always felt familiar.
“This is the shopping card of Times Mall. Today is Saturday. Instead of going to school, you might as well go out and buy some clothes for yourself.” Ye Guanjia looked at Mi Wan’s loose clothes and blamed herself again. Why didn’t I think of preparing the clothes for the young lady before? Actually let the young lady go to school in unfit clothes, and it lasted for a month.
“No, I’m still losing weight, and I will lose weight later. Now I can buy it again before I get bigger. I’ll buy it when the weight is stable.” It didn’t take long for her to lose weight in another month. .
“Miss, you don’t miss this amount of money.” Ye Guanjia smiled and reminded that her lady was actually a wealthy person. “And the young lady is in a bad mood recently. Shopping can make people happy.”
“I’m in a bad mood?” Mi Wan stunned.
“Miss has become less recent, and she is not always hungry, and breakfast is not picky.” Ye Guanji listed the changes of Mi Wan one by one, and finally asked, “What is wrong with being outside?” Has something happened? “
“…” Mi Wan’s emotions were really not high at this time, but Ye Guanjia actually saw it. “It’s nothing, but a friend and I have never been friends.”
“Miss’s friend quarreled with the lady, is there any misunderstanding?” Ye Guanjia cared.
“It’s either a misunderstanding, or … everyone’s positions are different.” Mi Wan didn’t know how to express the situation between himself and Fan Chen for a moment.
“Miss values this friend very much?”
Is it important? At first, she deliberately pleased a few points only because she couldn’t beat the opponent. Later, she found that the tree monster seemed to have a good temper. She always broke through the enclave and climbed out of the wall. He didn’t feel angry or stopped. He even mentioned it several times. I helped her. Mi Wan thought that maybe the illusion of harmonious coexistence between shemales and deceivers deceived herself five hundred years later, so that she even gave birth to the idea of being friends with each other.
“It’s okay, he helped me a lot.” It’s not important at this time to look down on it. After all, he and Fan Chen have different ways of being a shemale. “Everyone’s position is different, and it is a matter of time before the relationship ends.”
Ye Guanjia doesn’t know what a big university student’s stance can be so different that it can be so serious that he has no relationship with each other. Is it because I love beans are different?
After guessing it blindly, Ye Guanjia persuaded as a person coming: “Miss, people have grown up in this life, you will know more and better friends in the future.”
“You’re right, I’ll go out and make friends when I finish eating.” Mi Wan also wanted to open, not just not to make friends, who can’t live without anyone.
After eating, Mi Wan went to Times Mall.
The weather in Cannes has been bad these days. It has been raining for several days. At this time, it is winter. It is colder than snow. It makes people shrink and not want to go out, even the flow of people in the shopping mall is less. less.
Mi Wan bought a cup of hot milk tea on the first floor, and then began to walk around the mall. She had no purpose. She saw nothing new. She encountered some interesting or interesting things in the middle and went in for a stir. I learned a lot of fresh electronic technology, and I didn’t buy any clothes. When I was hungry, Mi Wan randomly found a restaurant to eat. When I was almost ready, I suddenly received a call from Han Xiao, the monitor.
“Squad leader?” Mi Wan answered the phone.
“Classmate Mi Wan, are you free tomorrow?” Han Xiao asked.
“Tomorrow, yes, what’s wrong?” Tomorrow is Sunday, and she has no other plans.
“Then let’s go to the field research tomorrow.”
“Field research? What research?”
“You will not forget the assignment of soil science? You will hand it in next week.”
“Oh, I remember, remember to remember.” Mi Wan said three guilty consciences, the field research of soil science, she had long forgotten to go outside Jiuxiao Yun.
“Then at eight o’clock tomorrow morning, our school will meet at the north gate. By the way, the other two students in our group are my roommates, Jin Mingxuan and Liu Gu.” Han Xiao said.
“okay, I get it.”
Hanging up the phone, Mi Wan was again in a state of melancholy. She had no knowledge of the field investigation of soil science. If tomorrow is past, if you ask yourself three times, will you be rejected? No, you have to find a way to bribe.
But what do boys like now?
Thinking of the snack that was returned last time, Mi Wan turned over her phone to find someone to inquire, but her phone was either catching a demon master or a demon, and the slightly normal human being was Han Xiao. This gift did not directly ask me. The truth is not. Mi Wan hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the WeChat of his little brother. Although a few years younger, Xiaomi Mi is also a normal human male.
Mi Wan: (Do you know what boys like now?)
Brother: (Are you in love?)
Xiaomi Mi seems to be extremely excited. After sending WeChat is not enough, a phone call followed. Waiting for Mi Wan to connect, his head is covered: “Are you in love?”
“Go away.” Mi Wan couldn’t help vomiting fragrance.
“Then what do boys like to do? Isn’t it meant to be given to your crush?” Mi Shao thought that his guess was very logical.
“How come I have a crush on others, not someone who has a crush on me?” Mi Wan felt uncomfortable.
“As for your appearance, can you be a little self-aware.”
“You say it again.” Mi Wan vomited blood.
“Cough … what, I always have to know who you gave it to, why you gave it a gift, and then you can know what advice to give you.” Mi Xiaodi seemed to know that Mi Wan was angry and quickly found a supplement.
“Send our classmates, want to bribe a bit, copy the homework at the end of the period.” Mi Wan replied.
“… out of breath.” This reason is not as good as the crush.
“Hang up!” Mi Wan hung up the phone fiercely, deeply regretting that he called Mi Xiaodi. Just thinking about buying something casually, the WeChat that Mi Xiaodi remedied followed.
Brother: (Most boys like sporting goods or electronic products. You just buy some commonly used ones. Also, do n’t give your classmates too expensive things. Although our family has money, do n’t give people the feeling of smashing people with money. , Beware of Qiu Fu, do n’t copy your homework.)
“Dead boy, you wait for me.” Regardless of the process, the direction is still there. Mi Wan settled the bill, abducted the electronic product area on the third floor, and then bought three sports headphones that were said to be cost-effective and popular with young people with the help of the clerk.
After buying the gifts, Mi Wan began to visit the clothing store. Considering that he will lose more than 30 pounds in the next month, Mi Wan did not intend to spend too much time buying clothes for himself. After entering the store, she asked the clerk to match herself with the two, tried it, and felt fit, and left in one of them.
Back at home, Ye Guanjia saw Mi Wan, who was refreshed, and the old tears of relief immediately, could n’t help holding her mobile phone and called her young master: “Young Master, our young lady has become more beautiful and can see the waist. . “
“…” Young Master Mi.
After a rest for the night, the next morning, Mi Wan arrived at the north gate of the school with the things prepared by Zhangsao. Because it is a weekend, there are not many people outside the school gate, and most students are taking advantage of the weekend. Mi Wan looked around, looking for the figure of Han Xiao, but turned around and didn’t even see his figure.
“Is it too early to come by yourself?” Looking at the phone, at eight o’clock in ten minutes, Mi Wan stood in front of the school and sent WeChat to Han Xiao.
(I ’m here, waiting for you in front of the school.)
“Classmate Mi Wan?”
Not long after Mi Wan’s news came out, a suspicious voice was heard not far behind her. She turned and looked, and found that Han Xiao was standing in front of a black car, and behind him were two boys, one after another.
“Have you arrived long ago?” Mi Wan put away her phone and walked over.
“It’s too cold, we got on the bus, I’m sorry, I didn’t see you just now.” In fact, Han Xiao kept staring at the school entrance, thinking that with the tall figure of Mi Wan, he must be very recognizable, but he didn’t want to be just a weekend. , How suddenly this person lost so much weight.
Even the waist came out.
Han Xiao silently retracted his gaze to glance around his waistline.
“It’s okay, it’s really cold. Let’s get in the car quickly.”
Everyone got on the bus again. After getting on the bus, Han Xiao gave a brief introduction to several people, because everyone was classmates, although they didn’t have much contact but were familiar with each other, they soon got acquainted. The car is Liu Gu, Jin Mingxuan sits in the passenger seat, Mi Wan and Han Xiao sit in the back seat.
Jin Mingxuan has a lively personality. When he saw that Mi Wan was more outgoing than he had imagined, his speech became natural: “Classmate Mi Wan, we haven’t seen one day, how did you change yourself? “
“Is there?” Mi Wan wondered.
“Of course, sitting in the car just now, none of us recognized that the girl who came to the school gate was you.”
“why?”
“You are too thin.”
Mi Wan’s net height is almost 166. Although she still weighs more than 130 kilograms, her body shape is very good under the blessing of Fan Yinshu’s wish. In addition, she took off her large and generous coat and put on newly bought clothes. The whole person looked about ten pounds thinner than her actual weight. In the impression of Han Xiao and others, Mi Wan was still the fat man in a thick coat on Friday, but only a change on Saturday. The visual impact that Mi Wan caused to them seemed to be 30 pounds thinner.
“It may be that the clothes are thinner.” When she returned home yesterday, Sister Zhang praised her clothes beautifully and thinner.
“You are much better than before.” Jin Mingxuan said sincerely.
“What happened to me before?” Mi Wan was curious.
“Well … there is no sense of existence.” Jin Mingxuan can’t say that Mi Wan feels very gloomy, so he has to change a milder word.
“I’m so fat, can I still have a sense of presence?” Mi Wan’s pretending surprised voice instantly amused the three big boys in the car.
“Hahaha … Mi Wan, I didn’t expect you to be quite humorous.” Jin Mingxuan laughed, and the other two laughed. Like a few words of kung fu, the last strangeness between Mi Wan and them also disappeared.
“By the way, I brought you gifts.” Mi Wan saw that the atmosphere was good, and took out the three headphones he had prepared. “It is a sports earphone, and you can usually use it for running and listening to songs.”
All three were stunned. In addition to Liu Gu, who was still driving, the others held the earphones handed over by Mi Wan.
“Classmate Mi Wan, what are you doing?” Han Xiao asked hesitantly. This time it wasn’t chocolate, and it wasn’t given to him alone. He didn’t think that Mi Wan was interested in him anymore.
“Bribes.” Mi Wan smiled.
“Bribes?” Everyone was puzzled.
“I’m not missing a half-semester class. Today I am sure that I will not do anything. I want to buy a small gift to bribe you. I hope you don’t dislike my pig teammate.”
“Squad leader, I finally know why you are willing to make up for the class of Mi Wan ~~” Jin Mingxuan looked at your friend quietly, “If there are such bribes from time to time, I am willing.”
“What are you talking nonsense about?” Han Xiao glanced at his roommate angrily and turned his head to return the gift to Mi Wan. “Help between classmates is due. We all know that you are absent from class and we will not dismiss you. You do n’t have to give a gift. “
“But I bought it all, and the special price I bought is not refundable.” Mi Xiaodi said that it can’t be bought too expensive. Mi Wan picked this special price. It is said that the original price was more than 2,000. Now buy two get one free. Of course there are cheaper earphones, but Mi Wan thinks they are ugly.
Han Xiao remembered that Mi Wan donated 100,000 yuan without blinking. He wanted to dismiss or sell these thousands of earphones, so he did not insist on returning them, just saying: ” Don’t give it away after that. “
“Then did I consider bribery successful?” Mi Wan asked.
“Count!” Jin Mingxuan replied with a smile before Han Xiao answered, “I don’t understand anything in the future. Despite asking us, although Liu Gu and I are not as good as the class leader, they are not bad.”
“The squad leader borrowed your notes before and copied them from me.” Liu Gu took the opportunity to ask for help.
Mi Wan’s lips grinned, only to feel that he was one step further from passing. Afterwards, Jin Mingxuan took off Mi Wan ’s headphones, and after exaggerating the sound quality, he talked about some of his favorite music, and the happy people quickly arrived at the destination.
Guyuan Village under the Guyuan Mountain.
“Go to my house for lunch first.” Liu Gu parked the car in the village parking lot and took a few people to his house.
“This is your home?” Mi Wan surprised.
“I forgot to tell you on the road.” Han Xiao introduced, “Originally, we had decided to go to the parks under the Wanwu Group to do soil research, but recently, all the parks under the Wanwu Group have been closed for rest. We had to temporarily Changed a place. It happened that Liu Gu ’s family was in Guyuan Mountain. We chose this place. Liu Gu said that in the past few years, the vegetation on the mountain near their home was not very good. It is just that we can take some samples to do research. After a while, the report will come out. “
“I really hope that King Di can see the mountain behind our house one day.” Liu Gu looked up at the high mountain range behind the village and couldn’t help feeling sad.
“Earth King?” Mi Wan raised her head sensitively, “Is Fan Chen Chen?”
“Yeah.” Liu Gu smiled. “If the king of the earth bought Gu Yuanshan, I would become a demolition upstart.”
“What dreams do you have during the day?” Jin Mingxuan couldn’t help but kicked.
Everyone walked happily, and soon arrived at Liu Gu’s house. Liu Gu ’s parents knew that his son would bring his classmates and prepared a table of meals in advance for them. Because I had to rush back to school in the evening, after lunch, the four did not dare to delay much, so I was ready to go to the mountains for investigation with the sampling tool.
“Xiao Gu, hold this, don’t forget to go bye.” When she went out, Liu Liu handed her son a red plastic bag with a few apples and some candles in it.
Everyone was a little curious, but it was not good to ask in front of Liu Mother. Jin Mingxuan couldn’t help asking when he was up the mountain.
“What did Auntie let you worship? Mountain God?”
“It is Shenmu, and it can also be said to be a mountain god.” Liu Gu replied.
“Shenmu? Your family still retains such ancient customs.” Jin Mingxuan wondered, with the development of technology, the influence of the gods on humans is getting weaker and weaker, and many customs are gradually being forgotten. Now, in addition to some old people in the village, they still remember to go to worship every New Year, most young people have no such awareness.
“Shenmu, why is it called Shenmu?” Compared with Jin Mingxuan’s concern, Mi Wan cares more about the origin of Shenmu’s name.
“This is a story.” Liu Guxing said enthusiastically. “It is said that almost fifty years ago, suddenly one day the ancient mountains were covered with clouds. The thunder light surged behind the clouds, but it did not rain, so it continued. After a whole day, such a thick flash of lightning suddenly split from the clouds and set off a mountain fire to burn all day and night. “
“Just edit it. Fifty years ago, you weren’t even a cell. How do you know how thick lightning is?” Jin Mingxuan laughed and scolded.
“My grandfather made such a gesture, but he saw it with his own eyes.” Liu Gu argued.
“What about later?” Mi Wan asked.
“Later? Anyway, it was a mountain fire that burned all day and night, and most of the trees on the mountain were dead. There was only one tree. It was in the middle of the mountain fire, but there was nothing else except for the appearance of a bit black. The people in the village Superstitious, it is said that this is a tree, and then the custom of worshiping the tree is formed at the festival every year. “Liu Gu said with emotion,” But most people in the village now go to the city to find work, and those who can come to worship Not many, so every time I go home, my mother will ask me to worship the **** tree, saying that it is blessing me to be safe outside. “
Skyfall God Thunder but can’t die a tree? If Liu Gu said it was true, the scene would be like a scene where Tian Lei became a body when the demon was transformed.
With curiosity about Shenmu, the crowd continued to walk up the mountain.
“It’s here.” After walking for about half an hour, he arrived at the location of Shenmu.
The crowd looked up, and the goal was a huge cypress tree with a mottled tree body. The diameter was about three meters wide.
“I’m going, it’s such a big tree.” Jin Mingxuan tilted his head and almost tilted his head to his back. He couldn’t see the whole picture of the tree.
“This tree has been around for hundreds of years.” Han Xiao’s eyes were also full of marvels.
“It’s unclear, and no one has taken it seriously, but it will take two to three hundred years to say less,” Liu Gu said.
“It should have been more than a thousand years ~” Mi Wan suddenly said.
“Impossible, if there are thousands of years old trees in our family, this place has become a tourist attraction.” Liu Gu smiled.
Mi Wan did not explain. Ordinary people think that the longer a tree lives, the bigger its size will be, and the easier it will be to discover. But the trees with spiritual knowledge are just the opposite. Unless they grow in the inaccessible mountains, otherwise, the trees with spiritual knowledge will carefully hide their bodies to prevent them from being discovered by people until they are transformed Shaped that day. If the transformation is successful, then it can leave the forest and take root wherever it wants. If the metamorphosis fails, the leaked demon power will make it grow into a towering giant tree in a short time.
The tree in front of me was obviously a metamorphosis failure. It’s just the size. It’s not as big as the other failed trees that Mi Wan has seen before, probably because of the thin spiritual power.
In order not to cause a mountain fire, the villagers built a small stone house at the foot of Shenmu, and incense candles will be lit and placed inside. Liu Gu put the apples well, lighted incense candles, and worshipped them quite seriously. Then he walked to Shenmu’s feet and picked a small branch and put it in his arms.
“What are you doing?” Han Xiao asked.
“The old man in the village said that after worshiping the Shenmu, taking a branch of the Shenmu and putting it on his body can keep him safe.” Liu Gu explained.
“You are quite pious.” Jin Mingxuan smiled.
“Ning Xinxin believes whether it is unreliable or not.” Liu Gu packed his things and said, “Let’s collect samples quickly. It will rain again in a while.”
“Let’s go then.” Everyone carried the bag and went on to the mountain.
“Shasha Sha ~~~”
Suddenly a cool breeze blew straight into the neck of the man. The people shrank their necks coldly. Only Mi Wan turned back suddenly and looked at the big tree behind him in surprise.
What were you talking about?
“Quick ~~~ escape ~~~~”
