Chapter 215 Living in the World, Not of the World
Ten days later.
Afternoon.
The light of the mountain is pleasing to the birds, and the shadow of the pond is empty of the human heart.
Wutong led his family back to Taixu Mountain. A few days ago, they had just returned from a trip to Shendu.
Yae Sakura has seen the "big world". After all, Shendu is the most prosperous city in this era. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a miracle created by human beings.
However, while Xiaoba was amazed, she always felt bored and noisy. Like Cheng Lingshuang, she didn't like to be among crowds of people, didn't like the excitement, and didn't yearn for the so-called big city.
She felt that life in Shendu was very tiring. People there seemed to be in a hurry and were in a hurry for everything. It was better to go back to the mountains to live a more comfortable life.
People are different. Every year, countless passionate young people come to God City to pursue their dreams. However, the gap between ideals and reality is often irreparable.
Most young people will become "old", their enthusiasm will become cold, and they will have to give up their dreams and return to reality.
Many people leave the Divine Capital every year. Although more people come, there are only a few who stay, and even fewer who achieve success.
Yae Sakura's dream is different from that of most young people. Her dream is to live in the deep mountains and old forests, farming, herding sheep, and raising cats... Therefore, she doesn't like Shendu.
At only eight years old, Yae Sakura seems to have realized her dream, which is quite enviable.
And what makes everyone even more envious is that...she has a good father.
After Hachi realized his dream, all that was left was to protect him.
However, it is easy to realize Xiaoba's dream, but difficult to protect it, because she has more responsibilities than others.
After returning to Taixu Mountain, Wutong and others planned to take a day off to clean up the dust caused by traveling. Of course, these were all excuses, they mainly wanted to rest.
With Wutong here, there is no such thing as a long journey. You can just open a "door" wherever you want.
Ji Lin's family moved to Taixu Mountain, and her work location was also transferred to Taixu Mountain.
This is mainly because Mei Gui chose to live in Taixu Mountain, and Ji Lin came after her.
Meigui is the "centaur" created by Mebius, and she named it herself.
When she was born, her name was Meima. Of course Wutong gave her such an unethical name. Later, Mei Gui felt that the name was awkward, so she changed it without authorization.
Wutong expressed his disappointment.
For more than a year, Ji Lin still hasn't disciplined Mei Gui. Mei Gui has a very strong character and just doesn't want to take Ji Lin away.
Ji Lin just wanted to ride a big horse, so these two "people" came into conflict.
In fact, Mei Gui's personality is quite good. She is not as irritable and irritable as Ji Lin said. She just loses her temper with Ji Lin.
Because she felt that in Ji Lin's eyes, she was not a human being.
Everyone else treats Mei Gui as a human being, but Ji Lin wants to treat her as a personal mount.
There is even a hint of inferiority in Mei Gui's character, because her appearance is indeed different from that of humans, and she has never seen anyone of the same kind who looks the same as her.
Although she has low self-esteem, Mei Gui's character is a bit straightforward, maybe because she is too young. So people can't mince words when talking to her, otherwise she won't understand.
Of course, this can improve with age. Although she is over two meters tall, Mei Gui is still a baby at heart.
It's great that she can communicate with people now. Many people don't know what they are when they are one year old.
"Big Baby" has a very strong fighting ability. Mei Gei is born with supernatural power and her body has strong resistance to Honkai Impact. She was also given two sets of "Red Kite" stigmata by Mebius. Although she doesn't have any fighting skills, She was holding a Honkai Beast that weighed an unknown number of tons and was swinging around, which was not something that ordinary people could bear.
Even Honkaimon can't stand it.
Lin Mei couldn't stand it anymore. She had just taken care of Xiao Lin's body and gradually got better, but then another "big baby" came.
Meigui is even more difficult to take care of than Xiao Rin, because Yae Rin is a human being after all, but Meigui is a "centaur". Who knows how to take care of this species of "centaur"?
The first thing that bears the brunt is the problem of Meigui's clothes. The top is easy to say, but what about the bottoms?
It's definitely impossible not to wear it. The more Meigui grows up, she will definitely feel ashamed, but what should she wear?
It's definitely impossible to wear pants with four legs. It's very difficult for Meigui to put on and take off herself. Her hands can't reach the base of her tail.
Wearing pants will cause Meigui to be very "inconvenient" in daily life.
Same as pants, she couldn't even wear small clothes.
And without clothes, it is easy to be exposed when wearing skirts and crotchless pants. If Mei Gui becomes a combatant in the future, she will be even more exposed. What should she do?
There doesn't seem to be any good solution.
Therefore, Lin Mei still made a big skirt for Mei Gui. There was nothing she could do about it. She had to let her wear something, right?
Then there is the issue of beds. Today, Mei Gui does not have a bed. Her huge body and excessive weight make it unsuitable for her to use a bed to rest.
It was definitely inappropriate for Mei Gui to sleep in a stable. She had her own bedroom, and Lin had prepared a room for her on the first floor. Lin was afraid that when she went up to the second floor, she would step on the wooden stairs.
This pavilion in Hua has stood firm in the wind and rain for thousands of years. It can be regarded as a cultural relic. Although it is well protected and still looks very strong, it is definitely stronger than expected.
A lot of vulnerability.
There was no bed in Meigui's room, only a large carpet, which resulted in very poor sleep quality.
Mei Gui can sleep standing up, half-lying down, or lying on her side. However, due to her body shape, it is difficult for her to sleep peacefully in these three ways of resting.
Mei Gui can sleep about 9 to 10 times a day, but the total time is only about 5 hours.
Finally, Linmei finally thought of a way. She made a huge triangular pillow for Meigui with two corners of 45 degrees and one corner of 90 degrees. Two small pillows were also fixed on the big pillow. In this way, she would When resting semi-lying or lying on your side, your upper body can have a support point.
The triangular pillow works very well. Meigui can now sleep 3 to 4 times a day, which adds up to about 7 hours.
But Linmei is still not satisfied, because when Mei Gui uses a triangular pillow to rest semi-lying, she must sleep on the pillow. It is not good to sleep on the stomach all the time, which will oppress various organs of the body.
Ke Lin couldn't find a solution for the time being, so he could only make do with it for now.
Perhaps, the centaur species is not suitable for human survival.
It's not just about clothes and beds, Meigui has inconveniences everywhere when she gets along with people in her daily life.
She cannot sit on stools or chairs. When eating, everyone sits but she lies down, and this is just the smallest thing.
She is relatively tall and often bumps into furniture when moving around the room.
Also, going to the bathroom is very troublesome. Linmei needs a special toilet made for her, but even so, she needs a cleaning robot to serve her because she can't reach her own tail.
In the same way, Meigui also needs someone to take care of her when taking a bath.
…
Taking care of Mei Gui makes Lin Mei very distressed. It’s not that Lin finds it tiring and troublesome. The main reason is that if these problems are not solved, when Mei Gui grows up, she will not be able to get rid of the troubles caused by the inconvenience of life. She especially needs people’s care. , and cannot do without human care.
It is impossible for Lin to take care of her for the rest of his life, because Lin has to take care of Wutong for the rest of his life.
Who is the destination of Meigui? In other words, who is willing to serve Mei Gui forever?
The figure of His Majesty Ji Lin flashed across Linmei's mind involuntarily.
Do you want to find a way to bring these two people together?
no! If His Majesty Ji Lin is with Mei Gui, what will Sir Lei do?
Actually...it's nothing...Mei Gui is not His Majesty Ji Lin's wife or concubine...just...a friend? ...will they become friends?
"Oh! It's so troublesome!" Lin complained to himself while holding his little head.
What on earth was Mebius thinking? Why did she create Meigui like this? Didn't you think about how the new species would live in daily life when you created it?
Lin's resentment towards Snake deepened.
