The black-haired girl sat under the tree and listened blankly to these words.
Like a forest shrouded in mist, blown away by the clear wind, warm and dry sunlight shines on the branches and leaves.
She could find many examples to refute, such as the difficulty of life, changes in people's hearts, etc. But the warm sunshine in Sophie's words prevented her from having any thoughts of resistance.
It would be great if everyone could do this.
Looking at Jina who was suddenly silent, Sophie was a little embarrassed, thinking that her words were too strong for the girl to accept. After all, she was still a wounded person. Maybe this idea also came from her own experience.
After looking around, she opened the small leather bag at her waist and found a candy.
The white candy paper is tied into a small bow. After opening it, a small white square appears inside, and a faint milky fragrance wafts out.
Sophie placed the candy in the palm of the girl with short black hair.
"Well, don't cry, just take another one. There are indeed uncomfortable parts in life, just eat something sweet and forget about it."
"How could I forget."
Jenna took the candy and wiped the tears that were about to overflow from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand. The depression and discomfort she had felt these days finally broke out.
The chaos in her hometown, the uncertainty about her father's future, and the confusion about her future path hung in her heart like an invisible and heavy lock, making it difficult for her to be happy.
"Don't cry, don't cry." Sophie patted Jenna on the back and sat with her.
"Yeah." Jenna replied softly, blinking her reddish eyes hard.
"Okay." After a while, after her mood stabilized, she spoke again.
Seeing this scene, Sophie secretly exhaled a small breath and relaxed.
"Candy will melt if kept for a long time, so eat it first."
Jenna nodded slightly and put the milk fudge into her mouth. The rich sweetness appeared in her mind again.
She felt the feeling of happiness carefully, and then opened the candy wrapper in her hand. There was a clear pattern printed on the off-white candy wrapper. It was a golden apple like the sunset, with three small translucent squares placed under the apple.
Its colors are red, blue and green.
Even an ordinary candy wrapper gives people an exquisite feel.
She slowly smoothed the wrinkles on it with her fingers, feeling the scent of the candy wrapper that still remained.
"Do you like it? I have several kinds in my collection that I can give to you as a souvenir." Sophie's familiar voice sounded in Jina's ears, and the feeling of exhaling made her ears itch slightly.
Jenna wanted it a little, but was a little embarrassed. She felt that she had received many favors from others for nothing, and yet she found someone else to ask for them.
"Wait a mininute."
Sophie's warm body suddenly stood up and trotted away, heading towards the tent group in the distance.
Jenna wanted to speak, but the other party was already gone.
Near noon, under the fierce white sunlight, Sophie walked through the paths between several tents, greeted the people around her, and then got into a tent and disappeared without a trace.
After seeing her disappear, Jenna felt a little empty inside. She only knew Sophie nearby or in this camp. How should she explain it if other people came over now?
Fortunately, this feeling did not last long, and Sophie quickly emerged from the tent. She waved to Jenna from a distance, and then trotted over.
"Look, I collected these."
She put a book into Jina's hand. The cover of this not thick book had stars and book seals. After opening it, there were light yellow pages inside. Jina pressed her fingers on it and felt the delicate and smooth feeling.
,
As Sophie helped to turn the pages, the candy wrappers sandwiched in the pages soon appeared in Jena's eyes.
Different patterns are printed on the white candy paper. They are colorful, have different forms, and have clear lines.
"First of all, common fruits." Sophie said, pointing to one of them. There are various fruits printed on these candy papers, including green oranges, red pomegranates, yellow pomelos, white jade grapes, dark purple mulberries, etc. Below the pattern
There are also short words that indicate what the fruit is.
"There are also sets of animals at the back..." Sophie flipped through the booklet, and candy wrappers of various colors and patterns were presented one by one, including animals, castles, buildings, fruits, extraordinary job agencies, strange monsters, etc.
.
...
"This one is the Dread Night Wolf, and the one behind is the Golden Tiger. Oh, and by the way, there is also the Emerald Feather Phoenix. I asked for this one from the rabbit-eared maid. It is very rare."
"I haven't collected all of the last set. I've asked everyone in the caravan, but there are only a few of them."
While Sophie was talking, she opened the last few pages of the booklet, and several special candy wrappers fell from the paper. The patterns in them were extremely delicate and completely different from the previous ones.
One picture shows a woman sitting under a grape vine. She has a peaceful expression and a smile. She is wearing a pomegranate red dress and has long green leaf-like hair. She is holding a bunch of wheat ears in her hand, and the bottom of the candy wrapper reads
With 'abundance'.
One picture shows a girl playing music on a rock in the sea. She has beautiful long blue hair, her eyes are slightly closed, and she is gently stroking the strings in her hand, while fish of various colors surround her in the sea.
The bottom of the candy wrapper says 'Ocean'.
One picture shows a girl sitting in front of the dressing mirror. She has golden slightly curly hair, surrounded by a girly room. The girl is wearing a white dress with pink hairpins in her ears, and there is also a girl sitting in the mirror.
There is a girl with the same face as the one outside the mirror, but she is wearing a black dress, the hairpins in her ears are also blue, and the bottom of the candy wrapper says 'Mirror'.
The last picture is of a woman holding a long sword against a kneeling knight, undergoing a canonization ceremony. The knight in ordinary clothes is gradually forming exquisite steel armor, and the long sword in the woman's hand is gradually turning from wood.
The steel turned into cold light, spreading from the hilt to the tip of the sword, and the bottom of the candy wrapper read "Silver Iron".
"What are these?" Jenna turned to the girl next to her curiously.
"These are the witches in ancient legends. They are living myths and legends. It is said that the chamber of commerce that gave us candy also got its name from a certain witch."
"It's very beautiful, but it's a pity that I only have four here. If I have money in the future, I will definitely go to the Ragdis Chamber of Commerce to find the lady and ask her to give me a complete set of witch candy wrappers."
"Because it's so pretty."
"I don't know what sad things have happened to you, and I don't know how to comfort you, but I want to tell you that although there are many uncomfortable and bad things in this world, there are still many things worth looking forward to and chasing.
something.”
"Our Chamber of Commerce is the same. When the West Wind was still there, life was very difficult, but everyone survived. Now the times in Crancia are much better."
Seeing Jina's silence, Sophie was a little anxious.
"I'm sorry, I'm a bit clumsy. Maybe what I said is not what you thought at all, but, but... I saw you lying on the roadside that day with scars all over your body. It was really sad."
"What I said may be trying to force others to do something difficult, but...but...but even if I have suffered a lot of injuries, suffered a lot of grievances, and may not even be believed by others, I still have to get up and not lose heart. Only in this way can I find what I want most.
Eat candy.”
"Come on, Jenna."
The last shout in her ears was like a bolt of lightning striking into the girl's mind, causing her to wake up suddenly and look at the girl of the same age in front of her.
Sophie, who is the same age as her, has no magic or extraordinary power on her body. Her hands are full of traces of labor. The corners of the rough linen coat have been washed and turned white, and there are also signs of wear and tear on the corners. It is so ordinary and full of sunshine.
.
Although Sophie didn't know all the worries in Jena's heart, these sincere words still moved her, like warm hands smoothing away the depressed and tangled folds in her heart.
Feeling the hands surrounding her, Jenna closed her eyes slightly, with this thought flowing through her heart.
Even though his strength is already at the top among his peers, in terms of strength, he is far inferior to this girl.
She has seen everything in her hometown. In fact, she has had an idea in her mind for a long time, but she has been avoiding this idea because she feels that she can't do it and can't afford it.
But now, she finally no longer escapes from this idea.
Yes, as the uncle said, this field has long been rotten and overgrown with weeds and pests. How can we change it?
The only way is to use flames and swords to clear away everything, just like Cranthia after the west wind, and let it be reborn.
I am not a strong enough person to ignore everything, but this is not a reason to stop.
If you don't have enough power, persuade more people to join you. If you fail once, try again. Even a small spark must be burned hard. Only in this way can everyone see hope and more people will turn in this direction.
