Chef is full of joy, although it takes almost three months to finally find a good source of water, he really does not believe that a talking artificial water maker can synthesize such sweet, mineral-rich water. There is an endless supply, no need to go up and down the mountains, and no need to worry about quality or supply shortages. He uses good synthetic soy sauce every day, plus good water, and keeps innovating every day. A variety of soy sauce sauces with different flavors have been developed one after another. Ash also enjoys delicious food every day, and her requirements for Chef's food are getting higher and higher, and her superpowers are gradually improving. Because there are delicious things to eat every day, the superpower can also be maintained, running super fast, jumping into the middle of the water for a swim, there is no problem at all. The sense of smell is very sensitive, and a blind eye can return to Chef. She can even let the little parrot ride on her, like riding a horse and playing around. The little parrot likes her very much, and they really love each other with Chef.
Chef comes up with a new idea, can we add different aromas to the soy sauce to enhance the aroma level? He looks at the map again. Is there a place that can have a huge amount of different plants that provide different aromas for research purposes? He finally picks Aokigahara as the next place to visit.
After three months of summer, the temperature in Hokkaido has also begun to drop, and it has gradually turned colder. It is also a good time to travel from the north to the south. Chef, Ash, and the little parrot leave Hokkaido and take the ride south to Aokigahara.
It is autumn at this time, and the coolness of autumn is very different from the heat of summer. The sky is high and the clouds are clear, and the autumn air is refreshing. Sometimes a gust of autumn wind blows, and the leaves fly up and dance in the air, and the pedestrians stop, like admiring a work, smiling, and watching the dance of the leaves. Suddenly, the autumn rain began to fall, the rain is not as violent as the summer rain, but sparsely and intermittently. The floor of the woods seems to be covered with a golden carpet, look at the branches, where do those leaves fly? Why are there only some withered old leaves? It turns out that the sister wind blows them to the ground and covers the quilt for Earth mother! Jump up and take a look, why is there a big red cloud over there? Run over and see that it is the maple tree that is raising the flaming flag! In the distance, there is a large piece of chrysanthemum blooming, and the colors are even more colorful: red, white, blue, purple, and pink. The flowers of the marigold next to it are yellow in pots and stand in the distance like gold. The carpet of dahlias, the flowers of dahlias are red and bright, like a burning flame, its petals are curled like the curls of dolls' hair, the flowers of dahlias are also white, and they are as white as Snow White's skin. Sweet-scented osmanthus also blooms, Fragrance drifts thousands of miles, the petals of sweet-scented osmanthus are rolled outside, and the golden petals are like small gold osmanthus. Although it is not beautiful, the strong smell is refreshing. They are all gathered together in clusters, as if they are in a meeting, and they are like little babies asleep and having sweet dreams!
Autumn fields are also very beautiful, in the wheat field, the wheat sets off golden waves, and when you look at the sorghum, all the sorghums bow and blush with laughter. At this time, a group of geese flew by, they also stop to see the beauty of the harvest, and they refuse to leave for a long time. Moreover, the harvest is not only in the fields but also in the orchards as well: apples are blushing, pineapples are so happy with thorns, oranges, and persimmons, and you squeeze me and touch them as if they are saying: "Come and pick! Come pick it! I am already ripe!" The more beautiful are the grapes, which are hung on the shelf with crystal clear clusters, which look even more attractive under sunlight.
During the journey, Chef also takes Ash to the beach to go fishing. At the beach, Chef puts some fish food on Ash and starts fishing. After a while, a dragonfly flies to Ash's fishing rod and Ash shakes the fishing rod. The dragonfly flies to Ash's head again, so Ash puts down the fishing rod to catch the dragonfly and wants to give it to the little parrot to play with, but the dragonfly flies into the flowers again. Seeing that the Chef has already caught a lot of fish, Ash asks Chef, "Why cannot I catch a single fish?" Chef says, "You have to be single-minded in doing things, not half-hearted, otherwise, nothing will be accomplished."
After the trip, everyone comes to the Aokigahara Sea of Trees. Aokigahara is a forest at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan, which is very similar to the forest in the Hollywood horror film "The Blair Witch Project", giving people an eerie and terrifying feeling. Niagara Falls is a wedding shrine that countless young men and women yearn for, but the sea of trees is favored by suicide, so it is also known as the "suicide forest". A bird's-eye view of the "suicide forest" where more than 500 people have taken their own lives since the 1950s. This trend is thought to have started with a novel by Japanese author Seicho Matsumoto, Black Sea of Trees. In the book, the two protagonists all choose to commit suicide in the sea of trees. After the publication of "Desolate Sea of Trees", hundreds of people in Japan hanged themselves in the woods of the Sea of Trees. According to reports, the sea of trees is densely forested, and even at noon, it is not difficult to find a place completely surrounded by darkness. Aside from corpses and homemade nooses, the forest is littered with signs that cherish life, such as "Life is precious! Please think twice!", "Think about your family!", "If you kill yourself here, the bear will kill you." The body is bitten into pieces." In the 1970s, the issue of suicide in the sea of trees attracted nationwide attention, and the Japanese government began to carry out "big sweeps" of this forest every year to find the dead bodies of those who committed suicide. In 2002, they found 78 bodies in the sea of trees. But who knows how many bodies have yet to be found? In this vast forest, you might run into a "hanged ghost" one day. By the way, if the whole forest is not scary enough with "hanged ghosts" everywhere, some people in Japan started making "dead money" a few years ago. They noticed that many of the people hanging from the trees might have cash or jewelry on them, and so began the Aokigahara Scavenging tradition: people flocked to the "suicide forest" to compete for the dead's belongings. Most people who come here to commit suicide to choose to hang their necks. It is rumored that residents living nearby say that they often hear the sound of ropes rubbing against each other in the middle of the night. Some people even see fangs and long-tongue ghosts wandering outside the forest, which is very scary.
And those who commit suicide in the Aokigahara Sea of Trees take more and more diversified methods. Some people come to the suicide forest to take sleeping pills and poisons, and some people choose to lie in the snow and freeze to death when it snows in winter. Why is the Aokigahara Sea of Trees so evil? It is said that before the war, the residents who lived nearby lived in hardship, suffered from hunger and cold, and often had to abandon their babies and the elderly in the sea of trees in Aokigahara to survive. Many abandoned babies and elderly people starve to death in the sea of trees in Aokigahara, and their grievances accumulate over the years.
Also, this is a large forest with many different plants growing, some of which may not be known. Chef lives at the entrance of the forest, picks different plants at the entrance of the forest every day, and tastes and records the smell and taste, there are many species of plants in the forest, and within a month, Chef's notebook is fully occupied with descriptions of the aroma of dozens of different plants. There are also plant samples in the house, and the samples are all put into test tubes in a well-organized manner. Because this is a ghost forest, it is easy to get lost, and the GPS does not work. For safety, Chef only collects samples at the entrance of the forest.
Ash has a good sense of smell, she can run and jump quickly, so she is not restricted by the forest. Every day, she lets the little parrot ride on her and explores the forest. When she is hungry, she returns to Chef with her sense of smell to beg for food.
One afternoon, a family, parents and a brother and sister, come from outside Chef's house to have a campfire at the entrance of the forest. They built a campfire in the evening and grill the food, and the aroma is fragrant. They invite Chef to join the campfire, Chef is very happy and shares his research sauce with them. The sauce is really delicious and it makes the food taste a lot better. They are talking, eating, and harmonious. Cheering and applauding one after another. Ash also crouches aside, wagging her tail, and watches them look happy.
The little sister suddenly hears some strange noises, and without saying a word, she runs into the forest to check what happened. In less than half a minute, she disappears. Her brother knows the danger of the forest, and regardless of his own safety, he also rushes into the forest, and he disappears. The elder brother uses a small flashlight on his mobile phone to try to find his younger sister. After a lot of hard work, finally, he finds the young sister. The brother hugs the sister in his arms comforts her and cools her panic. Brother knows the GPS location of the campfire meeting, so he turns on his phone and wants to use the GPS to return to the campfire meeting. Oh! GPS is not working and no mobile network is available inside this spooky forest. Without GPS and the Internet, modern communications are completely ineffective, and the brother does not know what to do. Whether to endure the dark night, withstand the biting cold wind, endure the strange noise, and wait until dawn? Thinking of this, brother cannot help but be afraid to cry. Although the brother is extremely scared, he holds back the tears and summons the courage to share a lot of happy memories of their youth to ease his sister's disappointment.
The parents and Chef outside the forest are very worried, but they cannot risk their lives to walk into the forest, which is a dilemma and anxiety.
Ash jumps into the forest and searches for the brother and sister at high speed. She finds them, but she does not have the strength to drag them out of the forest. With only her sense of smell, she quickly runs back to Chef and asks for something delicious. Chef takes two plants from the shelf, puts them on the wok, heats them for half a minute, dissolves the aroma of the plant into sake, and mixes the soy sauce and water together. The aroma of this mixture is very unique and very creative. Chef brushes this mixture on the skewered meat at the campfire and grills it for another 15 seconds. The aroma of skewered meat immediately increases to a new level. Ash immediately becomes addicted to it, not only is the aroma overflowings, but also the food taste is also enriched a lot, her face instantly turns orange, and her superpower is almost a perfect score.
Ash immediately rushes into the forest and walks to the brother and sister. In order not to frighten them anymore, she does not speak, she just murmurs and meows, signaling the brother and sister to follow her. No lights and moonlight, brothers and sisters cannot see the road, what should Ash do? Ash thinks about it for a while, and she comes up with a good idea, which is to make the fireflies build a ring of moonlight to provide lighting so that the brothers and sisters can walk out of the forest according to the light of the fireflies. Ash communicates with the fireflies with superpowers, the fireflies are also very kind and agree with Ash's rescue plan. The fireflies follow Ash and run towards the campfire. Because many fireflies participate in the rescue work, the light is very bright, like a little bright moon. The moon, hanging on the tree, is clearly visible, more than enough to make the brothers and sisters feel at ease jogging in the ghost forest and returning to their parents.
The family is finally reunited, hugging each other and crying, overflowing with affection. The siblings do not know that Ash is using her superpowers to get them home safely. But they thank Ash for risking her life to get them out of trouble, they hug Ash, kiss her and pat her head, and say:" Thank you. You save our life." Ash also responds with squinting, friendly eyes.
Ash also understands that animals have a kind nature, and they will help each other unconditionally and save others from danger. She thanks the firefly for their help and plays a very special game for the firefly. She let the firefly stack on top of her and then slide on the water under the moonlight. It is the first time that a firefly can play in the water, which is very satisfying.
