Chapter 241: Cherry Blossom Viewing(1/2)
Chapter 241 Cherry Blossom View
One semester is over. Two weeks of spring break will be the new school year.
“It’s the fifth grade.”
"It feels so fast. I still remember the scene when I first entered school."
Not only did I remember the world, but Ling also remembered it. She has a soul from another world, but her body still has the memory of the brain.
After all, memory is objective data engraved on the brain trough. The soul itself does not have a carrier for carrying memory. If it weren't for Gaia, she would not be able to retain the memory of another world. Perhaps she would really think that she was a native island.
Ling Ye.
Although there is no difference now. I don’t care who she is, as long as I know it is myself.
Ling and Zhishi were classmates in kindergarten, and were lucky enough to be in the same class when they entered primary school. The admission scene is vivid, and in a blink of an eye it is the fifth grade. In primary school, they are already a senior grade.
For children, this may be the first time to realize that they are growing up. All the students in the school are left with their juniors. The middle school is in sight, and suddenly I feel like I have become an adult.
Ling didn't feel that way. She always thought she was a high school student and was just a group of elementary school students. She was originally an adult.
From mid-March to early April, two weeks of spring break are said to be long.
"Does Ling have any arrangements?"
There seems to be no arrangement. Two weeks, traveling abroad is too compact, and there is no place to go around the country that I especially want to go.
"Let's go and enjoy the cherry blossoms?" Zhishi suggested.
Spring is a season for cherry blossoms to bloom. The flowering period of cherry blossoms is very short, and it only takes two weeks from bloom to withering. However, due to different varieties and different flowering times, one place will fade and the other will bloom.
Starting in early February, until April and May, there are cherry blossoms to watch.
It is also a pleasure to go to different parks to enjoy cherry blossoms during the flowering period.
There is no Internet in this era, and even columns are provided in newspapers of news that regularly inform you of the places where you can enjoy cherry blossoms every week.
It’s not bad to go to enjoy the cherry blossoms, but during this period, all the students have started spring break, and there must be many people in the parks everywhere.
Ling doesn't like the feeling of being too crowded, which reminds her of visiting attractions during the Golden Week. That's not about enjoying the scenery, but about crowds.
It is a good experience to lay a picnic mat under the floating cherry tree to drink tea and chat, but if it is dozens or hundreds of picnic mats covered the grass, there is no green at all. The tourists sit shoulder to shoulder and shoulder to shoulder.
Together, apart from the smell of smell of sweat, there is really no colorful artistic conception of falling flowers.
Ling also wanted to refuse, but when she spoke, she turned a corner.
"It's okay to go to the cherry blossom viewing, but don't go to the park."
"Don't go to the park? Ling also has a good place to know?"
"That's right."
She did think of a good place, a place she discovered by accident. The scenery is beautiful, with delicious food and hot springs. Most importantly, there are very few people.
It can even be said that there is no one at all, only "people".
"But I was wondering whether to bring Sakura with me."
"Hmm? Is there any problem?" Zhise didn't think that Ling said so, and deliberately excluded Sakura. There should be other reasons.
"Because Sakura isn't afraid of ghosts."
"Afraid of ghosts?"
What is the relationship between being afraid of ghosts and watching cherry blossoms? I don’t understand very well. Could it be that I go to a haunted house or to the cemetery in the middle of the night?
That's not a cherry blossom viewing, it's a bold test meeting.
"Because there are ghosts." Ling also said, in order to avoid misunderstandings from Zhishi. She added: "It's really ghosts."
Zhishi stared at Ling with bright big eyes for a while, realizing that the other party was not joking. Buling Buling, her eyes brighter.
That night, Ling also called Sakura.
Sakura is afraid of ghosts, it is absolutely true. But in the end she decided to go together.
Because Ling and Zhishi were also gone, it would be too disappointing to leave her alone.
I have to say that it is really a relief to have Ling around you. Even if there are monsters and monsters, it is... well, it is still quite scary to have monsters and monsters.
But it's more exciting, just like the first off-campus teaching (spring outing).
Because Ling also specifically said that the destination is a hot spring hotel with a lot of delicious food and no need to bring it to you, Sakura only prepared some snacks for the road.
Because it is for the three of them, there is a little more.
I heard that the journey will be very long and it will take several hours to drive.
The destination Reiya said was in Yamagata Prefecture, which is three or four hundred kilometers away from Tokyo. In this era, there was no expressway from Tokyo to Yamagata, so it was not surprising that it took a whole day.
"Please trouble you, Uncle Baxuan."
"It's OK."
The one who drove for them was Euchi Yugo. Although Zhise proposed to use her RV and traveling in an RV is indeed very comfortable, considering the terrain along the way, pickup trucks are more suitable.
Baxuan was so proud that Yaji agreed to his proposal, and even her family did not make any difficulties.
Two older leftover men and women finally took this step.
The father of Aki, who had a look in his eyes for many years, made Yaki feel that he had returned to college and met his roommate after filling two bottles of Kubota with Baxuan.
The wedding date is set for this winter. I chose the most traditional pre-style wedding.
Even the shrine has been booked, right at the Tsukifeng Shrine in Tokyo. That's right, it is the shrine where his eldest daughter practiced witches. She has not made a name for herself in the past, but she suddenly has a strong incense in the past two months.
At that time, Hinaga Miyaji of the shrine will personally host the wedding for them.
Traveling on a pickup truck is not comfortable, especially the small cab is crowded with four people. However, between three of them are all elementary school girls, and it is not particularly crowded.
The car was filled with rock music. Rock that became famous in the 1950s reached its peak in the 1960s and 1970s. Now it is the most popular time. Baxuan likes it very much.
However, these Ge Ling are not familiar with each other and don’t feel anything. After all, this era is a bit unfamiliar to her later generations. Rock giant Michael Jackson released his first single more than a year ago, and he is still a little transparent now.
When the pickup truck drove into Yamagata Prefecture, it was almost afternoon.
Sakura brought three snacks, which happened to be brought by Ling and Zhishi, so although they didn't have a regular meal, no one was hungry, including Baxuan, and she was full and hungry.
Just like its name, Yamagata Prefecture is covered with large areas of forest and many mountains. In this era, human settlements were still located by the forest in the form of villages after village.
Large tracts of undeveloped land.
Drive along the road through a town, watching the desolation in front of you gradually begin to begin again, Baxuan is a little uncertain.
"Are you going here?"
"Yes, turn right in front of the sign."
Baxuan glanced at the street sign and drove in towards the right to go up the mountain, but soon he felt a little strange.
Is there something wrong with the street sign just now?
He remembers that the left side said it was leading to "Nakaoka" and the right side was "National Highway 21".
Is there a place called Nakaoka in Yamagata Prefecture?
There is a street in Tokyo called this name, but obviously, the sign here cannot point to a street in Tokyo 400 kilometers away.
On the other side, the "National Highway 21" he entered at this time was even more strange.
The first national highway built ten years ago in Japan has only six or seven national highways in the country.
There is not even No. 11, where is National Highway No. 21?
The roads are getting more and more remote. Not only are they not seen the so-called national highway, but at some point, the cement roads are gone.
Baxuan braked, stopped at the end of the cement road, and looked at the dirt road leading to the mountains in front.
"Miss, are you sure you go here?"
"Well, the road ahead is not easy to walk, so I didn't drive a RV. Uncle Baxuan, your car doesn't matter, right?"
"It doesn't matter. As long as the road is right..." The pickup truck has all-terrain, four-wheel drive, and it is originally an off-road tire, and even more complicated mountain roads are not a problem.
But in such mountains, there are really hot spring hotels for cherry blossom viewing?
Baxuan started the car again, the road began to bump, and he slowed down a little.
"Well, just slow down. When I came last time, I saw a stone pier blocking the road ahead."
Fortunately, the eldest lady reminded me that Baxuan stopped in time in front of the stone pier. It appeared in front of the blind spot of sight when it turned around. If you were not careful, it would probably hit it.
There's really no way this time.
"It's here?"
At the end of the road is a tall vermilion gatehouse. It looks quaint, but it is impossible to tell what kind of building it is.
"This can probably be considered a shrine."
"Shrine?"
Although it is different from the shrine you usually see, since the eldest lady of a witch said so, it is probably true.
