The little light of the stars gradually faded, making the darkness of the night more pure and more thorough, and the two who were already used to the darkness were also more and more difficult on the road, but because of Ataza's warning before, they didn't dare to turn on the flashlight again, and occasionally saw some black shadows on the road that slightly reflected the starlight, so they temporarily opened it to identify whether it was an obstacle, but turning off the flashlight again would make their adaptation to the darkness have a serious decline.

"There wasn't any accident on their side, right?" Zhuang Zhuang was a little ashamed, because there was a problem with his bicycle, and everyone was worried about him, which made Lu Yunfan almost die. No matter how you look at it, this looks like a very serious look, thinking that Lin Da might be angry with him, he actually has some expectations.

In the past, he may not be able to go back, but Zhuang Zhuang doesn't want to see anyone change because of himself, and the most important thing is that Lin Qiudu can trust him as before.

"It's all right, it's almost dawn, get to the town ahead, we need to get in order. ”

"That's good!" Zhuang Zhuang wanted to ask Lin Qiudu's attitude towards him, but he didn't know how to speak, looking at Lu Yunfan's back, his lips moved slightly, and he seemed to be very conflicted in his heart.

Lu Yunfan seemed to feel his psychology, slowed down, and the two of them went together.

"Tonight, you seem to have told Lin Da a long story, anyway, we still have a long way to catch up with them, why don't you bother to talk and let me know about it?"

"Xiaofan, I'm so tired that I don't want to say anything. Thinking of Lin Qiudu's changes because of his past, he was very afraid that Lu Yunfan would also become like Lin Da, he didn't have many friends, although Lu Yunfan had joined the team for the shortest time, but he had been very close to him, and he could even be said to be Lin Qiudu's best friend, he couldn't let the two of them have a problem with him at the same time.

It didn't feel good to be isolated, and after all these years, he had had enough.

"Oh, since that's the case, then I have to go back to Lin Miao and Xiao Qi, I believe they will definitely let you say it again. Lu Yunfan didn't seem to know much about his melancholy, and deliberately teased him.

"They, I won't say anything, Xiaofan, don't force me. ”

"If you think my idle egg hurts, you can not tell me. As for why I want to know the truth, I can tell you that it is entirely because you have changed so much, and every time you get angry, I see it. There are six of us, and I'm afraid I'm the only one I've seen the most times. ”

"I know that every reopening of a scar will be painful and even maddening, but you, even if you are mad, I want to see what weapon that scar was injured by. ”

Lu Yunfan's earnestness made Zhuang Zhuang a little moved, but he was still afraid that Lu Yunfan would be the same as Lin Qiudu, hesitant and in a dilemma.

"You know my personality, I'm not Lin Qiudu, even if you lie to me, I won't have another opinion of you because of this. Haven't we known each other for so long, and I'm not worth it for you to dig out your heart and say something from your heart?"

"Huh. Zhuang Zhuang laughed because of Lu Yunfan's words.

"You're not ashamed, how long have we known each other? It seems like it's been less than two months, right?"

"So what's the matter, some people have experienced life and death, even if they have just known each other for a day, they will be brothers for a lifetime, and some people will be friends for a lifetime, but they will easily part ways for a little benefit, which one we belong to, you should already know very well. ”

Zhuang Zhuang frowned again, Lu Yunfan's words touched him deeply, but he and Lin Qiudu were by no means such fragile friends, he had always believed that Lin Da's temperament was worth making friends for life.

"Since you still don't want to say it, then forget it, when you think I'm worth believing, I believe you will tell me everything that happened to you, and you will also believe that I really want to help you, even if it's not good, I can still ask Lin Da!"

Lu Yunfan had been planning for a long time, and he used Lin Qiudu as an introduction, and he couldn't dig it out from the roots, so he had to take a step back and start from the people who knew the inside story, but the message he passed on to Zhuang Zhuang was just to provoke him.

"Don't go to Lin Da, I'll tell you!"

"Alas...... That's right, you should believe me, there are not many people like me who have such a high EQ and IQ, and it is only good for you to dig out my heart, hehe!"

Lu Yunfan's words were relaxed and witty, although there was a bit of a naughty smell, but it was this feeling that made his whole person relax a lot, and the removal of his guard made his heart no longer tightly shrink.

"Then tell me first, is Lin Da still blaming me?"

"Blame you, I think he worries about you more than anyone else, sometimes I think you are not born in a mother's womb, how can you have such an ambiguous male affection!"

"you, Lin Da and I, that's a true friend. No, I should be ashamed of it, he has a heart for me, but I keep letting a fake self face him!"

"What is really fake?, is it painted skin?" Lu Yunfan's unserious tone made Zhuang Zhuang a little annoyed.

"Draw your sister, can you listen to me and say it well, if you want to make trouble again, I won't say it. ”

"Okay, okay, I won't interrupt you, you go on. ”

......

Beyond the distant meadows, on the ridge stood a plain wooden hut that seemed to be uninhabitable, with strings of dried meat and red peppers hanging from the walls outside the hut.

The man, wrapped in a messy leather coat, threw a large package on the wall outside the house and exhaled deeply.

"Eji, we're home!" Atazar opened the door, and all the walls were covered with animal skins. Taking off his coat, Ataza carefully placed the pocket in his arms on the bed, and slowly took out the bones one by one, arranging them into a human shape one by one.

"Eji, there is something I want to tell you, today I saved two people, two people from the city, they are different from those I have seen before, they are very brave, I want to be friends with them. ”

"Eji, I know you'll agree, but I'm afraid of leaving you, you're alone, the people in the village won't let us go back, I'm afraid that the two of them won't accept us, so I let them go. ”

"Eji, I let them go, but I regret it again, they dare to fight the wolves, they are as brave as the hunters in the village, they are also very friendly, do you say they will dislike us as much as the people in the village?"

Ataza knelt in front of the window, looking at the thin humanoid skeleton in a daze, they had been away from the village for four years, and he wanted to go back, but no one in the village could accept a man who would not bury Eji.

"Ataza, your Eji is dead, the horse helped your Eji find the place to ascend to heaven, you have to obey the will of heaven. ”

"No, I don't want Eji to leave me, I'm going to be with Eji. Thinking of his stubbornness, Ataza did not regret it, he did not want to rebel against the will of God, but he could not leave Eji.

So he drove away the messenger from heaven and built this small cabin in the place where Eji ascended to heaven, and he only wanted to stay with her old man forever, and he didn't want to leave him alone.

There was once a Han Chinese who said that when people die, they must be buried in the earth, and those who die are afraid of light. In order not to make Eji afraid, Ataza only went out hunting at night, covering all the places in the room during the day where light could let in, and staying by the bedside like a child, telling his mother about his experiences every night.

"Eji, you've suffered all these years. In order to prevent the wolf from taking his mother's body, he would take his mother with him every time he went out, but because of this, he had to destroy his mother's body, thinking of the pain of broken limbs, Ataza burst into tears, and his mother suffered too much with him, all because of his selfishness.

I don't know how long it was, and I don't know if it was dawn, but Ataza, who was groggy and dazed, saw his mother sit up from bed, so amiable, and stroked his hair with that calloused hand as she had done so many years ago.

"Eji, is it really you, I've seen my Eji again!" Atazar sat up and hugged his mother's thin body and cried even more violently, completely forgetting that his mother had taught him that a man could not cry.

"Ataza, Eji is dragging you down. ”

"No, it was Ataza who made Eji suffer. Ataza looked at the familiar face, burst into tears, and recounted the experience of fighting wolves with two city men during the night.

"Ataza, Eji knows, but you have grown up, the eagle in the sky can't always hide in the nest, and you can't always guard your mother, go and fly, Eji knows that you can fly far. ”

Atazar felt that his eyes could no longer be opened, and his mother turned into a holy light, illuminating the entire dark room, and the holy angels hovering outside the house chirped crisply, as if urging that the last time had come.

"Eji, my son knows, my son knows how to do it, my son will be happy with his friends, and my son will not let you down. ”

The light vanished, and Atazar opened his eyes, the tears on his face were already cold, and his mother's bones were still on the bed, but they no longer seemed so black.

For the first time in years, he remembered who he was, opened the window for the first time, and saw his mother's skeleton for the first time as if smiling.

In fact, he himself knows very well that his mother, who can't give up, has already left him.

The warm sunlight poured down on his body, and Ataza finally decided to leave here, his mother's soul had gone to heaven with the holy angels, and there was no point in continuing to stay here.
