The Witch's Imaginary Land: Redemption Comes After Sticking Together

Page 155

"It feels so good, like a campfire," the little girl murmured unconsciously. She finally opened her eyes groggily, getting a brief respite from the cold death.

"Drinking this will make you feel better." Jiang Kehan ​​took out a bottle of potion from her personal space, which, with Tong Hua's modification, turned into a candy.

After gently feeding the little girl, she used sweet memories to create a suitable outfit for her and placed it in the little girl's hand.

"Didn't anyone help you?" Jiang Kehan ​​asked softly after she finished doing all this.

The little girl finally regained consciousness after being cured by the medicine. She looked at Jiang Kehan's face in a panic and subconsciously struggled.

Jiang Kehan ​​put her down and patted her head.

Feeling the lingering warmth on her body, the little girl realized that Jiang Kehan ​​was helping her.

She shrank back somewhat timidly and subconsciously looked around.

The others remained indifferent, too stingy to even cast a glance at them.

"No...everyone has gradually become like this since it snowed."

The little girl shook her head, seemingly reminiscing about the town of the past.

"At first, everyone was worried that the snow would keep falling, but later they stopped caring."

"Especially after everyone discovered that the snow here was edible, people became even more indifferent."

The little girl looked out of the snow village, her eyes filled with barely concealed excitement.

“I remember that Grandma John used to have a plot of land with grass and flowers, and we had a lot of fun playing there!”

"Although snow is edible, it also covers all of these things up."

She couldn't help but lower her head and look at the pure white snow at her feet.

"We haven't seen grass for a long time, but after the snow, people don't want to go out to farm."

"After all... snow is sweet, and you never get tired of eating it."

"Adults have their own ideas, right?" The little girl acted like an adult, seemingly understanding others, but she quickly lowered her head and spoke in a soft voice.

"I miss my grandma..."

Jiang Kehan ​​let out a breath; she felt inexplicably tired.

She raised her head, closed her eyes, and opened her mouth, letting the snowflakes fall into it.

It's sweet and light, like morning dew or honey.

This is a fairy tale.

Jiang Kehan ​​slowly opened her eyes and looked at the snowflakes falling under the sun. It was beautiful.

This is a fairy tale!

Who exactly poisoned the honey with a mindless, lazy spirit?!

Jiang Kehan ​​already knows why people who come here don't want to leave.

She also understood why the people here were so indifferent.

She even found out who was the culprit who changed everything.

Her calm eyes blazed with intense heat; she was more like the sun than the sun in the sky.

You green worm, you deserve to die!

They actually cast a mind-altering spell here!!!

Chapter 222 What will the little girl sell this time?

However, Jiang Kehan ​​kept these emotions to herself, putting on a faint smile and being careful not to let her enthusiasm burn the little girl.

Although it may seem counterintuitive, overly intense emotions will only provoke resistance.

"So, do you have anything to sell?" Jiang Kehan ​​asked softly.

If she were just a little girl curled up, she might not even realize it.

But with the surrounding lights and the constant murmur of "grandmother" on her lips, if she still couldn't guess the real-life counterpart of this little girl, she should question her own intelligence.

The evil queen became a loli, and Snow White became a gangster girl.

So the little match girl must be selling something that isn't simple.

Perhaps that's the key to changing this story.

However, as Jiang Kehan ​​recalled the most abstract version of the story of the match seller that left the deepest impression on her, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Could it be a nuclear bomb...?

That would truly bring sunshine to this place.

Jiang Kehan ​​suddenly felt that playing with abstract concepts too much might not be a good thing.

"How did you know?" the little girl asked, somewhat puzzled. She carefully took a box out of her robe and handed it to Jiang Kehan.

"However, if you want it, I'll give it to you."

She wore a radiant smile, seemingly out of place amidst the surrounding snowy landscape.

"After all, my grandmother taught me to be grateful!"

“You have a wonderful grandmother.” After a brief silence, Jiang Kehan ​​smiled and accepted the box. “I think she would be proud of you.”

"Mmm!" The little girl smiled sweetly and said earnestly.

"This box was also left to me by my grandmother. Please treat it well, sister."

"I will." Jiang Kehan ​​smiled and opened the box, then slammed it shut with lightning speed, leaving Ya Rou and Xiao Ting, who were watching, somewhat bewildered.

Jiang Kehan ​​fell silent. She used her magic to probe the contents of the box, trying to reassure herself that she had just misread it.

This is more terrifying than a nuclear bomb.

It's a ricochet...

I'm so angry! Is your grandma even human?!

Jiang Kehan ​​decided to retract all her praise for the little girl's grandmother; at that moment, all she felt was a stampede of alpacas in her heart.

It would be a miracle if this stuff even sold!

Jiang Kehan ​​was drenched in sweat.

"What is it?" Ya Rou asked curiously as she leaned closer.

"No, it's nothing." Jiang Kehan ​​suddenly stood up, took the little girl's hand, and walked outside.

"Let's take the little girl to Louis first. She's so pitiful. Staying here will only make her miserable."

"Do you want to start a new life in a place with flowers and grass?" Jiang Kehan ​​asked the little girl softly.

The little girl looked at the snow around her and the indifferent pedestrians, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

She clearly remembered that the people on this street used to be different.

This snow transformed the ordinary town into a place unfamiliar to her, and it wasn't just the white snow that accumulated in every corner.

It seems that the town has never really changed; only the people living in it have changed.

The little girl couldn't help but shiver. She looked at the bright colors around her, but could only feel a hazy mist separating everyone.

This is not her home...

The little girl was a bit resentful, but felt empty inside. She looked around but couldn't find anything worth keeping.

For some reason, she suddenly felt very wronged, but she didn't cry. She just held Jiang Kehan's hand tightly and didn't say a word.

Jiang Kehan ​​felt the pull on her hand. She turned her head to look at the little girl who had made up her mind, and suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

"I'll change it all back, don't be sad."

"I'm not sad... I just don't know why everyone has changed," the little girl said softly.

She had already seen the headless knight in the distance, but she suddenly felt that this knight, who seemed to have walked out of hell, was more like a human being than the people in the Snow Village of No Sun.

Suddenly, she was moved and spoke up as if she wanted to prove herself.

"I will use my own methods to bring everyone back to how things were before!"

"Yes, I believe you." Jiang Kehan ​​smiled helplessly. In this fairy tale, even if she wanted to change the state of Wuri Snow Village, she could only solve it by finding the green worm.

But she didn't mind comforting the little girl who seemed to have grown up overnight.

"By the way, what's your name?" Jiang Kehan ​​asked casually, trying to pull the little girl out of her negative emotions.

This child doesn't belong to Xuexiang. Her heart is like a seed that has already taken root in the soil, just waiting for the right time to grow.

"My name is Hans Christian Andersen," Andersen said in a clear, crisp voice.

Jiang Kehan ​​was taken aback. She looked at Hans Christian Andersen and suddenly felt a sense of pride.

Look, green worms.

Even in the most desolate and barren places, flowers that bring warmth will bloom.

"You will succeed, absolutely." Jiang Kehan ​​gripped Andersen's hand tightly and handed her over to Louis.

"Miss Louis, please take the goods back first. I'll leave the child with you as well."

“Hmm.” After a brief silence, Louis nodded at the determined-looking little girl. “I hope that when I return, you will have already found the way to the Happy Casino.”

After saying that, she picked up Andersen, mounted the horse, and rode the skeleton horse toward the kingdom.

"Is she important?" Ya Rou asked with some curiosity.

"I don't know, but I know what's right and what's wrong." Jiang Kehan ​​turned around and looked at the still pristine and beautiful snow village.

"And this snow-covered village without sunshine is wrong."

The relationship between people is far more complex than this.

Jiang Kehan ​​looked ahead with certainty; she was determined to correct this mistake.

"But let's find a way first." She smiled, but Ya Rou beside her could sense what lay beneath Jiang Kehan's calm exterior.

That is the spark that ignites a prairie fire, an unchanging original aspiration.

Ya Rou clicked her tongue softly and looked away.
