In the most mysterious place between heaven and earth stood a small sapling shaking its leaves in a lonely manner. There were countless flowers and plants around the sapling, but there was no taller plant than it. Sufficient sunlight fell through the clouds and evenly shone on every branch and leaf of the tree, feeding it to its fullest.
A girl in a white shirt was holding a kettle and was carefully watering the saplings. Every time she watered, she touched the leaves of the saplings with her hands, her eyes full of love.
“Fan Chen, Fan Chen, do you think the baby is full?” After pouring the water, the girl turned around and asked the long-haired man lying not far away basking in the sun. The man’s long hair was like a piece of black satin, which was smoothly spread out on the ground, evenly basking in the sun.
Fan Chen turned his head slightly and looked at the sapling not far away. The sapling seemed to be aware of it and shook its branches and leaves a few more times. Fan Chen curled his lips, looked at the girl with gentle eyes, and said, “If he drinks more water, he will grow faster.”
“Then I’ll get some more water.” After hearing this, Mi Wan quickly stood up from the ground. Then she ran excitedly to the creek in the distance, carrying the watering can that had just been empty.
About one kilometer away from where they lived, there was a clear stream. Fan Chen told her that it was the purest stream in the world. Even a drop of it flowing into the human world could purify the entire river. In the past few years, due to the serious pollution of the earth, the stream had dried up badly. Only recently had the stream shown signs of recovery.
When Fan Chen saw Mi Wan running away, he got up and walked over. As soon as he approached, the sapling shook its leaves excitedly, as if in protest.
“Mom is taking care of you.” Fan Chen sat down cross-legged next to the sapling, being careful not to let his clothes get on the soft soil moistened by the stream at the roots of the sapling.
“Shashasha~~” (I obviously don’t need to water, I can absorb the moisture in the soil by myself.)
“We have to find something for your mother to do, otherwise your mother will be bored.” Yes, as a Jianmu, how could Fan Chen himself not know whether his son needed watering? He was just trying to find something to do for the bored Mi Wan. After all, after giving birth to a child who could grow up on his own once planted in the ground, if Mi Wan didn’t do something, it would be difficult for her to have a sense of existence as a mother.
“Shashasha~~” (There is no need to water me eight times a day. If I were an ordinary tree, I would drown.)
Yes, it would be fine if his mother only watered it once a day, but she watered it eight times a day, and the sapling felt like he was not planted in the ground, but in the water.
“You are half human. There is a saying among humans that people should drink eight glasses of water a day.” Fan Chen explained.
“Swish-swish~~” (Is that eight cups? It’s just a pot of water.)
“Anyway, most of it has been absorbed by the soil.” Fan Chen said nonchalantly.
“Shashasha~~” The little sapling seemed extremely angry, and the leaves were shaking so much that they were about to fall off.
(My soil is not short of water at all. Every time my mother comes over to water it, I have to expend energy to send the excess water back to the spring. I am very tired.)
“This is just right. You can practice more.” Fan Chen said.
The little sapling was shocked by his father’s shamelessness. If he hadn’t been too young now and couldn’t pull out the roots, he would have run away from home.
“Shashasha~~” (You are just bullying me for being young and not being able to speak yet.)
Yes, as the first child born in the world that combined the power of man and nature, the little sapling had had its consciousness since the day it was born. It was just that his power was still very weak and he couldn’t speak. He could only communicate with his father, who was also mentally powerful, through his mental power.
“Be good, humans have the instinct to nurture their offspring. It was too easy after you were born. Your mother is a little disappointed, so let her do something for you.” Fan Chen coaxed.
The little sapling calmed down immediately. Don’t they all want to have a child who is worry-free? I am so worry-free now, why is it bad?
“Shashasha~~” (Okay, but you have to tell your mother tomorrow that she can only water twice a day.)
The little sapling compromised, forget it, mother is her own mother and she always has to be coaxed.
“Okay.” Fan Chen smiled and said, “It’s boring for you to stay here just basking in the sun, why not learn something.”
“Shashasha~” (Learn what?)
“Let me tell you something, when the seasons rotate, the spring breeze prays for blessings,” Fan Chen said.
The little sapling was quiet for a while, as if thinking about something. After a while, he remembered it, so he shook the leaves and replied: (The rotation of the four seasons is Jianmu’s instinct. I heard my grandma say that I don’t need to learn this. Wait for it and it will come naturally when I grow up.)
“Wouldn’t it be better to learn it in advance? It will take a long time for you to realize it when you grow up.” Fan Chen advised.
(I’m not in a hurry.) The little sapling said that he was just in a hurry to grow up, not in a hurry to learn something. Besides, why should he go out of his way to learn something if he didn’t need to learn? Don’t think that because he is young, he is easy to deceive.
Fan Chen froze. This boy was so young but it was hard to fool him. Well, he admitted that he was anxious, anxious to let the sapling learn the rotation of the four seasons, so that he could leave here with peace of mind. But this kid could not know about this premeditation.
“If you learn how to do it, I will ask Wanwan not to water you.” Fan Chen decided to give him a candy first.
(Really?!) The little sapling was indeed moved. Although watering it was the mother’s love for him, the love was so overflowing that it was a bit unbearable.
“Really, and after you learn the rotation of the four seasons, you will also be able to master the spring breeze and pray for blessings. You were born with the blessings of all creatures on the earth, shouldn’t you give back to them?” Fan Chen continued.
The little sapling thought for a moment and felt that what his father said made sense, so he agreed: (Okay, I’ll learn.)
Fan Chen smiled happily, and in an instant, a wisp of breeze blew by, filled with joy. The little sapling felt the joy in the wind and always felt that something was wrong but couldn’t figure it out.
