章節 194: Memories of a Bunny

The chest had two compartments. The one on the left was filled with clumps of clay, whereas the one on the right was filled with … dried grass and leaves.

The fronds were woven into the shape of a bunny. The weaves and braids had come loose over the years, and the lively green had turned into a dull shade of yellow, but I could still easily recognize from the outline of its chubby belly and fat ears that this was a clumsy work of mine—I had made it during my first spring at Mount Hua, after my first rescue of hurt animals from Bai Ye's garden.
