Chapter 14 Phantom-Shower in the sky

A dim gray-- The world is like a sponge that has absorbed water, stagnating heavily.Green moss grew under the walls, the air was musty—and bad moods followed. Chilled sour plum soup. I filled a cup, and the coolness quickly spread to my body through my fingers.I scraped a little with a small spoon, and just as I was about to put it in my mouth, I heard a knock on the door, bang... bang bang... bang... "It's really rude." I frowned, thinking, who could it be?It's noon. It was a completely unfamiliar "person" standing at the door, with flaming red hair dripping wetly against his body, and a small tuft of white hair on top of his head, as white as snow.It's not a bad looking little fox.Along its arm, it holds a lotus pod obliquely.

Oh.little things.I hurriedly got it into the house.It fanned the cool wind with its hands, and sat still with a smile.The inherent fragrance of the lotus pod gradually diffused. The little fox "tsk tsk" drank the sour plum soup I just served it, and narrowed its slender eyes.I took advantage of the opportunity to pick up the lotus pod it had just placed on the table, put it under my nose and smell it.The little fox's face suddenly changed drastically.There was a sudden wind outside the window, and the clothes on the clothesline swayed. "It looks like it's going to rain again."

"Will not." The little fox smiled slyly, drank the last sip of sour plum soup, and snatched the lotus pod from my hand.At this time, the window was already crackling, and the rain was mixed with the wind. (I rush out the door to take back my clothes) The little fox sat as if nothing had happened, and laughed when he saw that I was holding a pile of clothes drenched in water.Then, it shook the lotus pod and blew again.Outside the window, the sky suddenly became empty—blue and clear like never before.Only the water continued to drip from the eaves, proving that it had indeed rained just now.

"Huh? What's going on?" "Shower in the sky." The little fox said proudly, "Because I was tired from walking just now and drank your sour plum soup, so I will tell you this secret." "Just put the lotus pod under your nose and smell the fragrance, and it will rain. There will be golden rain, gray rain, and white rain..." "Then never rain, because rainy days make me so blue." "But the lotus pod has a fragrance. I can't help but smell it, just like you couldn't help it just now." The little fox tilted his head, looking innocent. "Yes." I said:

"After that, it only rains golden yellow. It makes me think of wheat fields and my dear people. It makes me feel warm when I am sad." "..." The little fox was sitting by the window, like a quietly blooming amaryllis.The blue outside the window is like blue tiles. "Don't get lost, and don't lose the lotus print on your hands—" Inexplicably, my mother's voice came from my ears.I shook Kongkong's arm, but I lost it later. I took a look at the emerald green lotus pod that the little fox was holding on his chest - it turned out to be a shower in the sky. (unbelievable)

The eyes of the lotus pod are also used to shed tears.When you can't help but smell its aroma, and you can't help but recall some past events. A golden rain, a bright rain. This is how I spent this summer, and the little fox fulfilled my wish, because it likes to drink my sour plum soup.
