I didn't intend to be a Fairy

Chapter 692 It’s cold on the river

On the edge of Liujiang River, the mountains and rivers complement each other and the scenery is picturesque.

Occasionally, there are loud folk songs that echo among the mountains. I don’t know whether they come from the mountains or from the river.

The Taoist was sitting cross-legged under a tree by the river. There was a small stove in front of him, which was lighting a fire. The girl was bent over washing rice by the river.

"When your injury is healed, will Empress Sanhua use the white crane to send you to Dingshan Mountain?"

"Time is not so urgent. It won't take long for my injury to be completely healed." The Taoist added dry firewood to the small stove. The dry firewood had been broken into small pieces by Sanhua Empress. The length was just about the same as the stone stove. He only had to pick it up. It's very convenient to just throw it into the stove. "We can walk slowly and come back slowly."

"Aren't you in a hurry, meow?"

"yes……"

Song You continued to throw firewood into the small stove.

According to his thinking, the only thing left now, which belongs to the past twenty years and belongs to the world under the mountain, is to ask the Emperor of Heaven to abdicate.

However, now that the Emperor of Heaven has no available power in the sky, and the power of the immoral god has been exhausted, this has become an easy task.

As for the subsequent events, they either do not belong to these twenty years, or they do not belong to the human world under the mountain - whether it is monitoring the interference of gods on the development of the human world, or gaining insight into the human world, and guiding the historical process at the appropriate time, Song You can do it in return. After arriving at Fulong Temple, complete it on Yin Yang Mountain.

That would consume him for the rest of his long life.

"Don't move, don't light the fire, don't do anything, just let Sanhua Empress come!"

Sanhua Empress came back with a small pot that was half filled with rice and water. She looked at the fire in the small stove and then at the Taoist who was throwing small sticks into the stove:

"You don't cook as well as Sanhua Empress!"

When the girl said this, she had a serious face, but somehow she couldn't help but turn around and look far behind her.

Where is it behind you?

This time they came from Yizhou and flew to Xuzhou by crane. Nineteen years ago, they also came from Yizhou and walked to Xuzhou. The Taoist taught her the fire method and how to make fire, and told her to gain insights from burning fire. The aura of flames and the true meaning of fire magic, she didn't do well in this matter at first. The flames often went out, black smoke often came out, and she didn't listen to her words.

Looking back now, among the mountains, it seems that one of them is the same one, and it seems that what I see is the same one as before.

"I can't compare to Sanhua Empress."

"..."

Sanhua Empress put the small pot on the stove, scratched her head, and said nothing. She just picked up a piece of bacon and a few swallow beans she bought from the side, and then went to the river again.

This is the recipe the Taoist priest taught her——

Braised dry rice with oats and bacon.

He said it was called Kong Ganfan.

Sanhua Empress didn't know why it was called this, but she secretly tried it with waxed mice at night and it was delicious. Today she used the cured pork meat she bought to make it for the Taoist priests.

The bacon made by the farmers themselves is hung on the beams of the stove after it is cooked. The bacon is cooked and smoked every day, so that the bacon is covered with a thick layer of black ash, which must be washed before eating.

Then the sound of scrubbing came from the river again.

Empress Sanhua's arms were thin but very strong, and she scrubbed them vigorously.

"Brush, brush, brush..."

According to her opinion, it is just some black gray ash, which is much cleaner than the dust and mud on the ground. It will not squeak in the mouth, and it will be fine if it is eaten in the belly. However, this Taoist priest has a lot of scenes. In this case, he is not willing to eat it.

There is no other way but to make do with him.

"I'm not too tired, Sanhua Empress..."

"It's not as cold as Empress Sanhua..."

The less obvious fatigue and the biting cold of the winter river were quickly dissipated.

Just brushing, Sanhua Empress suddenly stopped and looked up at the river ahead——

The river is still green, calm and waveless at this windless time, with only a little chill, reflecting the strange mountains on both sides of the river. But a little further upstream, there is a wooden basin floating down the river, gradually moving towards her. Come this way.

"Well?"

Sanhua Empress stared straight at that side and sniffed.

At this moment, there was crying on the river.

"Wow……"

Empress Sanhua's expression condensed and she put down the bacon in her hand.

"Puff puff..."

A swallow flew over.

After a while——

The wooden basin on the river obeyed her invitation and floated in front of her, revealing an infant lying inside.

The girl immediately turned back and looked at the Taoist.

"He's a little man!"

The Taoist had already stood up and came over with a stick.

Walking to the riverside, he bent down and picked up the child in the basin.

"Wow……"

The child continued to cry.

The Taoist looked carefully.

Sanhua Empress also stared at him.

This child has begun to grow teeth. It looks like he is more than half a year old. He is less than a year old. He is considered a baby. He should have been weaned. He is wrapped in clothes and coarse cloth. Other than that, there is nothing else in the basin. In this cold winter, my face turned purple from the cold.

"It's a girl."

The Taoist said to the girl beside him who was particularly concerned.

"Girl!" Sanhua Empress looked serious and puzzled, "Why is the girl in the river?"

"Wow……"

"do not Cry……"

The Taoist touched the baby girl's face and spoke softly.

The baby girl seemed to understand, and her crying stopped.

"It should have been abandoned by others."

"Thrown away? Don't want it anymore?"

"I guess……"

"Her mother doesn't want her anymore, meow?"

"Maybe……"

"Why don't you want your own children? Cats don't want their own children."

"Who knows..."

Song You looked down at the baby girl.

There are often abandoned baby girls in the world, such as at the foot of Yunding Mountain or in Jingdao Lake. Now that the world is in chaos, there may be even more abandoned baby girls.

The fabric of the baby girl's clothes was very ordinary. It could be seen that her family was not wealthy and she was no longer a newborn baby. When she was weaned, she didn't just throw her baby girl into the river to drown like ordinary people. Instead, she used a wooden basin and floated it down the river, fearing but also having some hope.

I don’t know what the rest of the family is like, but the mother of the child must be a little helpless.

The Taoist held the baby girl and inspected it carefully. Coincidentally, the baby girl had good basic talents.

It's almost like destiny.

"It's fate that we meet here. Since you came up from the river, you took Jiang as your surname. It's snowing heavily today and the winter is biting cold, so just call it Jiang Han."

"!"

Sanhua Empress looked at them seriously.

Cats are animals that always respect the old and love the young, and Sanhua Empress is very compassionate and empathetic, so naturally she couldn't take her eyes off the baby girl.

"Are we going to pick her up, meow?"

"Didn't Sanhua Empress already pick her up?"

"Are you going to take her away?"

"It's fate," the Taoist said. "She has lost her mother. If we don't take her away, she will die soon."

"Do you want to take it back to Yin Yang Mountain?"

"What do you think, Sanhua Empress?"

"Empress Sanhua thinks she is very pitiful!" Empress Sanhua looked at the baby girl, "She is just like a kitten without a mother..."

"Then let's follow fate."

The Taoist said to her: "In this way, Sanhua Empress is no longer the youngest."

"!"

The girl's expression condensed.

"Since she was picked up by Empress Sanhua, I have to ask Empress Sanhua to take care of her from now on." The Taoist continued to look at her and said, "Let's start by cooking lunch into porridge."

"Cook it into porridge, meow?"

"It needs to be thinner."

"OK!!"

Sanhua Empress stood on tiptoes again, looked up at the baby girl in the Taoist's arms, quickly picked up the wooden basin in the river, and continued her work.

I was very busy this time.

Not only that, but he also turned around and looked behind him many times.

So Konggan rice was cooked into fish porridge. Empress Sanhua first took out the small square blanket she bought in the Western Regions to cushion the baby girl, then took out the Taoist priest's blanket, wrapped it up, and consciously carried it on her shoulders. Taking up my responsibility as a big cat, a scavenger and an elder, I used a spoon to drink porridge for her, cooling her down each time before feeding her.

He even forgot to eat.

And she didn't feel tired at all. On the contrary, she felt it was very fun and enjoyed it.

"She stopped barking!"

"That's crying..."

"She stopped crying!"

"She cried because she was afraid, helpless, hungry and cold, so that she could find support. Now that she has seen people, she is no longer afraid, neither hungry nor cold, so she naturally stopped crying."

"Empress Sanhua thinks what you said makes sense..."

Sanhua Empress looked up at him and said, then looked down at the baby girl and said to her, "Your name is Jiang Han, and I am Sanhua Empress."

"Bah..."

The baby girl chirped.

"brush!"

Sanhua Empress raised her head again and looked at the Taoist: "But she didn't speak either."

"She's too young and can't speak yet."

"Meow?" Sanhua Empress opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Isn't she a little person, meow? Why can't the little person speak?"

"Ms. Sanhua was not born with the ability to speak."

"Sanhua Empress is a cat. This is human language. Of course Sanhua Empress cannot speak human language when she is born." Sanhua Empress is justified, "She is a human and she can speak human language when she is born."

"People are not born with the ability to speak human language."

"But cats are born with the ability to meow."

"That also needs to be learned slowly."

"Well……"

The girl stared at him seriously, not quite believing it, but she felt that he didn't seem to be lying to her, so she could only tell the truth: "Empress Sanhua doesn't remember."

"This little one is probably almost one year old. According to normal human development, it's time to learn to speak." The Taoist sat under the tree with a bowl in hand. "If you want to listen to her speak, Empress Sanhua can try to teach her." Some simple words to teach her how to speak.”

"Teach her some simple words!"

"For example, when you are hungry, Sanhua Empress." The Taoist said to her softly, "When everyone was young, their parents and elders taught them this way. I heard that when the cat was young, the big cat also taught it this way. She screamed. Now that she has no parents and is still weak, she has no choice but to rely on Empress Sanhua."

The Taoist paused as he spoke and couldn't help but shake his head: "Unknowingly, Empress Sanhua has become a big cat and can be a teacher and elder."

"no problem!"

Sanhua Empress' voice was very firm, and the words "Big Cat Master" and "Teacher Elder" kept coming back to her mind.

The Taoist smiled slightly and closed his eyes.

If all goes well, this baby girl will probably become the next generation of Fulongguan. It just so happens that the Fulong Temple in Yin Yang Mountain has been passed down from generation to generation, from generation to generation of men and women, so she is also suitable.

Under the tree to shelter from the wind. On a winter afternoon, when I feel sleepy after a meal, it is a good time to take a nap and recover from my injuries.

Drowsily, I heard a voice coming from beside me.

"Rat...

"This is a rat...

"Say! Hao! Zi!"

"..."

The Taoist opened his eyes slightly.

I saw the baby girl wrapped in a blanket, lying on the cloth, with a pair of eyes as dark as night, staring at the girl in front of her unblinkingly, while the Sanhua Empress had a serious face, holding a baby in her hand as if to return it. The half-grown rat dangled in front of the baby girl.

"..."

The Taoist was silent for a moment, with a vague foreboding feeling.

It's half a moon by the river, and the chill is getting worse.

The Taoist finally had Kong Gan rice.

The fat and thin bacon is cut into small dices. The lean part is attractive red, and the fat part is translucent. The swallow beans are also cut into small dices, which are light yellow and mixed in the rice with distinct grains. The aroma of the ingredients is perfectly blended under the action of high temperature and oil, making it simple and delicious.

Sanhua Empress still cooked fish porridge for the little girl. While feeding the fish porridge, she couldn't help but secretly give her some bacon, swallow beans and dry rice, calling it something good for her.

While feeding her, observe to see if she will be fed to death by you.

Song You was really worried at first.

However, this baby girl seemed to be extraordinarily thick-skinned, with nothing strange at all. Instead, she was crawling around on the wool felt, muttering vaguely:

"Rat...

"Rat..."

The Taoist's face was expressionless and his heart was heavy.

The girl next to her sat upright, holding a bowl and a spoon, and quietly glanced at her Taoist priest with her peripheral vision, expecting to hear praise for her from him, or surprise about this matter.

Taoists concentrate on enjoying the food, so they cannot see it.
