Rice Balls

Open your eyes and look at it in a flash.

Thousands of years, ten thousand years.

Open your eyes and find yourself in the bustling Heian-kyo.

Clothes are scarce, food is scarce, hunger is rumbling, holding a broken sword in hand, not even a piece of steamed bun can be exchanged, it is quite miserable.

Shenzhou, Dragon Lord, turmoil, chasing, fleeing, living in seclusion, going to sea, boarding a ship, pirates, fighting, falling into the water…

It’s wonderful when it’s said to be wonderful, and it’s also tragic when it’s said to be tragic.

A dignified heroic spirit of the new generation ended up in exile overseas.

The principle of the heroic spirit has been broken, and it is impossible to play it again.

As the price for surviving, it is to completely lose the power and noble status of the heroic spirit.

The young man who was raised as a candidate for the four pillars of the world at birth, after losing his strength, status and identity, transformed into a beggar on the road of Heianjing.

A beggar’s identity is the best. You don’t have to worry about being exposed or being discovered. What’s more, this is Sakura Island. It’s not considered desolate, but it’s a small country where it’s hard to get enough food. It’s a land that has no meaning to conquer.

So, it’s safe.

But it is precisely because of the remote mountains and remote areas that it faces a more severe survival crisis.

Yingzhou has lacked compassion for the weak since ancient times, and most refugees would directly become thugs rather than beggars.

Because begging can’t get food at all, and they are destined not to survive the winter. They will either starve to death or freeze to death on a snowy night.

In order to survive, many people are struggling to survive under the guise of performing arts. Some people are wandering outside, carrying shamisen with them, knocking on the door of different people, playing a song to cheer up the fun in exchange for a full meal.

The half-crippled boy sat on the streets of Ping An Jing, thinking that he really came to the wrong place. If he was on Chang’an Avenue, after half a day, there would be at least a few copper coins in the bowl, enough to buy some steamed buns.

But after sitting here for three days, I didn’t have a single copper coin.

It’s better to pick up fruits in the forest to eat, but that will inevitably become the food of some non-human creatures in the forest. Moreover, the forest is the territory of the tengus. They hate humans, and they are easy to be attacked when they get close, even if they are lucky and don’t meet the tengus In fact, monsters and ogres are hidden in the mountains and fields far away from human settlements, and they may become gifts of nature.

However, if you continue to sit still, you will starve to death sooner or later.

I didn’t expect to die like this this time. It’s better to kill myself with a knife.

He stared at the broken sword in his hand, then noticed the group of stray dogs half a street away, and retracted the thought.

He can choose to end his pain, choose to start over, and then stubbornly type “very simple”, but he can’t tolerate not even having a place to shroud his body after death, and being reduced to food for wild dogs.

Then let’s struggle for a while.

So, I sat for another three days.

He almost lost the strength to move his fingers. Apart from drinking some dew, he hadn’t eaten for more than half a month.

The weather has completely entered winter, and the winter is extremely cold. When I wake up, I don’t know when it has been covered with a layer of white snow.

He hasn’t starved to death yet, but he doesn’t know which will come faster, freezing to death or starving to death.

The heroic spirit’s body endowed it with tenacious vitality. Under the trauma that could not be recovered, even death became a painful torment.

He also inevitably wondered why he insisted on living so much.

Revenge?

Don’t be kidding, I can’t beat it.

Level 1 Yuumi singled out Baron Nash?

There are thousands of troops sitting in the court, what can I do if I am a useless person, besides, the struggle for feudal power is that people of the same class kill each other, Seeing through the essence, I can’t ignite my Chinese heart at all.

Since it wasn’t for revenge, it seemed that there was no other goal.

Anyway, the big deal is the memory seal, let’s put it badly.

He lowered his head, the snow on top of his head fell to the ground, and smiled wryly.

“At this time, I really hope that someone can come to rescue me, just once.”

“I have been unlucky for more than ten years. I really hope that good luck will favor me.”

“It’s just to entrust the rest of my life to you…why not?”

The wild dogs around seemed to have sensed that this man was finally going to die, and they all licked their teeth and approached slowly.

They are also very hungry, hungry and thirsty, and just want to have a full meal.

Bai Wei didn’t have the strength to raise the broken sword this time.

This gave the wild dogs courage, and the leading one rushed towards him, leaving a footprint on the snow.

He closed his eyes, waiting for the blood to pour out.

Pain and crisis can cause sudden death. Humans secrete adrenaline, which can relieve paralyzed hands and feet and restore consciousness.

Although he came back, at least he still has the strength to kill a dog.

But the pain didn’t come, but a miserable dog barking was heard instead.

He raised his eyes and looked over, a little girl in a pure white kimono was holding a wooden stick in her hand and hitting the head of the wild dog. She looked about eight or nine years old, and her movements were not very capable. He stood in front of him without hesitation.

“Get out, get out!”

She was obviously a girl, but her words were unexpectedly vulgar.

The young man didn’t care about this at this time, he just lowered his hands with difficulty, leaned against the wall, and looked at the little girl in surprise.

She was wearing a pure white kimono and a beautiful hairpin. She must be a girl from a wealthy family, but there were no guards around her.

She beat the wild dogs away by herself. She seemed to be a little scared, but she quickly breathed a few breaths into her hands, dropped the wooden stick in her hand, patted the snowflakes on her new clothes, turned her head and stepped on them. Snow came over.

What she was wearing was not clogs, but heavy warm boots, and the sound of stepping on the snow was like cotton candy.

For some reason, the teenager’s consciousness and memory are very clear at this time.

She saw the little girl squatting on the snow, took out the wooden box from her sleeve, and placed it on the ground.

She breathed into her hands, her face flushed.

“Call on ãŒã£ã¦ã.”

I don’t understand what it means, but I can understand what she wants to say.

In the wooden box are freshly made rice balls, warm, wagashi, and noodle soup.

The boy looked at the girl, he couldn’t say anything due to hunger, his dry lips and tongue were numb and stiff.

He wanted to raise his hand, but failed to grab it several times.

I have no strength in my hands, not even the strength to grab the rice balls.

The little girl blinked her eyes, took the initiative to pick up the rice ball, then handed it to the boy’s mouth, and said without hesitation: “Ah…”

At this moment, he couldn’t tell what kind of feeling he was feeling, the center of his chest seemed to be vibrating and humming like a big Honglu bell.

He’s in his teens, yet he’s being fed by a little girl less than ten years old.

Ashamed?

But what was stronger than the shame was a kind of warmth, a kind of warmth that made him feel that he was still alive.

He took a bite of the rice ball, chewed it, and swallowed it. There was a thunderous grunt in his stomach. His life was nourished, and he began to gobble it up. Such a simple action made the girl laugh happily, and the sound was as clear as a silver bell.

“ゆã£ãり食ã¹ã‚‹…” She smiled slightly, squatting on the snow, like an elf raised between heaven and earth, cute and pure.

He chewed the onigiri and rice grains, and suddenly felt a bit salty and bitter.

This is the smell of tears.

So I was crying?

It’s so strange, Mingming has never felt any pain or tiredness in his heart, and it’s a trivial matter to comfort himself all the time, the big deal is to forget about life again.

But, why the fuck…why is this rice ball…so fucking delicious?

The fake strength was so fragile, and when he faced the little girl who was squatting on the snow with such a patient and gentle attitude, his heart fell apart, and he would collapse at the touch of a touch. He swallowed the bitter but still delicious rice ball mixed with tears.

Swallowing the last bite of food, the girl quietly put away the food box, then quietly took out a string of coins from her arms and stuffed them into the snow in front of her.

She raised her finger: “Shh…”

It seems to be asking the young man not to tell others that she has been here before.

“Wait, what’s your name?” the boy asked.

The girl blinked her eyes. It was a pity that she could not understand foreign languages. She turned her head and grinned. The small canine teeth and two dimples were very cute.

Stepping on the snow, her back disappeared into the white snow.

Holding the string of coins in his hand, the young man stood up slowly while leaning against the wall: “I will remember this kindness.”

He wasn’t in a hurry to find the girl. He still remembered the family crest on the food box, so he didn’t spend too much effort.

A year later, after many inquiries, he learned that this family crest belonged to the Jianzhi Yagyu family of the General’s family. The Liusheng family had an only daughter named Yagyu Chiyo.
