Chapter 275 I'll Cook Dumplings for You
Junyi was dreaming again.
It's still a confusing dream.
The messy picture flashed before his eyes like fragmented pieces of a corpse, randomly pieced together into a horrific appearance. He could only see some minor fragments, but when put together, it was shocking.
He didn't bother to control his disordered breathing and subconsciously looked for Gu Nan's figure.
He knew she was back and sat on the swing outside the yard.
Gu Nan seemed to be startled by him. The moment he opened the window, he happened to look at him. His clear almond eyes looked at him quietly, as if he saw his embarrassment.
"Are you dreaming again?" Gu Nan asked softly.
The cold and desolate tone of her voice was completely different from her usual liveliness and willfulness, but it was exactly the same as the cool dew tonight.
The thin and slender figure swayed gently in the night, as if it was about to fade away at any time.
Junyi stared at her intently, and suddenly felt a tightness in his heart.
The spiritual energy was flowing backwards, and the meridians were blocked, as if something was trying to drill out of the chest with its fangs and claws.
The veins on the hand pressing on the windowsill suddenly bulged, his thick eyebrows turned upside down, his pupils became dark, and his solemn and compassionate face suddenly looked like a Shura from hell.
“Crack—”
The windowsill shattered with a sound, and he suddenly lowered his head, his trembling eyelashes barely hiding the anger that was rising in his eyes.
Gu Nan was stunned, hesitantly walked over and gently touched his shoulder, "Junyi? What's wrong with you?"
Junyi suddenly grabbed her hand, his pupils constricted, his eyes so deep that he seemed to want to suck her in and crush her.
Gu Nan was startled and struggled subconsciously, but as soon as she moved, the big hand tightened as if to break her wrist, and the temperature of the palm was so hot that she couldn't stop shivering.
"Junyi!"
Chunyi was suddenly startled, his body trembled, and his eyes suddenly became clear again, "Gu Nan?"
Gu Nan was frightened by him, "What on earth did you dream about?"
Junyi stared at Gu Nan intently for a moment, then looked away stiffly as if he was scalded.
He soon noticed the two people's overly intimate posture, their thin lips were tightly pursed, and their pretty faces were gloomy.
He turned his back and used his skills to suppress this sudden and strange emotion.
The more he thought about the dream of Dharma obstacles, the clearer it became, and the deeper its impact on him became.
The moment he opened the window and saw Gu Nan, he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
After years of practice, he boasted that he could see through all illusions and distinguish the true from the false. However, when he encountered a disaster, just a dream made him so panic.
His face grew darker, and he chanted the Heart Purification Mantra.
"I almost thought he was going to become a demon." Gu Nan leaned against the wall and waited. There was something wrong with Chunyi tonight, and she was worried.
System: [No, don't worry, he's not that fragile.]
Gu Nan sighed, "When he grabbed me, I had already planned how to run away. Luckily, Niuniu and Lizhi are small, so I can carry them both in one hand."
system:【……】
A wind suddenly blew in the woods, and a cool and damp feeling fell between my eyebrows.
Gu Nan looked up and a few more drops fell on his face.
It's snowing.
She stretched out her hand and caught the small snowflakes that fell with the drizzle.
Soon, the sleet turned into heavy snow, falling down in large flakes.
The snow came suddenly but was very beautiful. Gu Nan couldn't help but walk out from the eaves and stood in the middle of the yard to play with the snow.
The snow in Kyoto is always heavy. It can fall up to the ankles overnight. Tomorrow morning, I can build a snowman with Niuniu in the yard.
Snowman... She suddenly thought of Qi Yan, the warm big house, and the Shamatte sisters.
Fang Wei'ai and Wen Xin were playing together in the game. What were the other sisters doing? Were they still doing odd jobs, or had they found a stable and reliable job that no longer required them to walk the streets in the snow, shivering in the cold?
From this to that, they still have such a hard time, what about ordinary people in this era?
Have they prepared enough food, sewn cotton-padded clothes for winter, and stockpiled enough firewood for heating?
The snow is heavy and this winter will be long. Can they survive?
She withdrew her gaze and looked at Chunyi.
Junyi was still standing by the window, his tall and majestic figure hidden in the darkness, motionless, like a carefully carved Buddha statue.
His eyes fell on her again at some point, and he seemed to be looking at her, but also as if he was looking past her and at everyone else.
The snow-covered sky reflected in his eyes, making those already cold pupils even colder, without the slightest human desire, as if he knew everything that was going to happen next, and as if he was sitting in a hall, but never opened his eyes.
Gu Nan couldn't help but hold his breath, "It's snowing."
Chunyi looked at her across the vast snow, his deep voice carrying a hint of mystery, "The evil demon has emerged, and great disaster is about to come."
Gu Nan was stunned, "What?"
"The world is going to be in chaos."
Gu Nan was confused, suspecting that he had heard wrongly, "Then, what should we do?"
It must be said that the male protagonist is worthy of being the male protagonist, and he can make accurate predictions about the general trend of the world.
No wonder he looked so strange tonight. If she suddenly saw the chaos in the world, she would find it difficult to remain calm.
Gu Nan accepted it without any doubt, and even felt calm as if it was just as he expected.
"There's no way."
"Don't you have any other options?"
Chunyi's eyes moved slightly, and a faint light seemed to flash in them. "Man-made disasters can be avoided in advance, but how can we reduce natural disasters?"
"You can see the chaos that will happen to the human world in the future. This is hope. We can definitely find a way." Gu Nan floated to the window, stood at his level, and said with certainty.
"No matter what, we have to try. It would be better if we could save one life."
Chunyi's eyes drooped slightly, and her long eyelashes trembled gently in the wind and snow.
Gu Nan felt sorry when she heard about the great disaster in the world, but all the cycles of life and death were already predetermined. She wanted to snatch people from the Yama Palace, but had she ever thought about what price she would have to pay?
Her merits are so profound that if she can successfully help him overcome the calamity, it is not impossible for him to attain enlightenment and become a saint as she said.
Doesn't she want to? Or doesn't she understand?
She seemed to be completely unaware of how many people were frozen to death by the snow in Kyoto every year. The way she played in the snow made her look like a carefully nurtured child with a childlike innocence.
He had calculated her fate, and she had a miserable background, a rough life, and a bad ending. She was clearly a fierce ghost, so why could she open her clear eyes and ask him -
Don’t you have any solution?
What is he in her heart? Should he be able to do anything about it?
"Why aren't you talking?" Gu Nan leaned over to Chunyi and started to argue. "Tell me what the disasters are. I can find a solution."
"I won't tell you." Chunyi closed his eyes, collected his thoughts, and when he opened them again, he returned to his previous calm demeanor. "Before the winter solstice, I'll go cook dumplings for you."
Gu Nan: “?”
What dumplings?
Who can eat dumplings when people are about to die?
Gu Nan chased into the kitchen and pounced on Chunyi's back like a tiger pouncing on its prey. He grabbed his neck and said viciously, "Tell me, or I'll strangle you to death!"
