Chapter Seventy-Two: The Sunset
"You have a good heart, and you are concerned about these flowers that are dying in the twilight. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"If I don't have a good heart, where are you who are laughing with me now?"
Mian Xing smiled generously, slightly provocative towards Zhuxi, and didn't sound like "Yan Yan" in a gentle manner.
"Besides, when I'm older, I can't stand the wind and snow all the time, and my joints hurt. β
The man who looked to be in the prime of life sighed: "Time is urging people to grow old." β
"Do you have joint pain? Come here, I'll warm you. β
Zhu Xi'e frowned slightly, and immediately beckoned to Mian Xing. The woman's index finger moved slightly, and the seat that originally belonged to Mian Xing moved to her side, and Zhu Xi's firm and clear gaze fell on Mian Xing, even a man who couldn't see could feel the abundant care and admiration in it.
Yes, although Zhu Xi didn't notice it herself, Mian Xing, who watched her grow, was always clear and thorough. Zhuxi is not good at expression, the way to show emotions is simple and clear, the emotions themselves are rough and direct, and her aggressive personality makes her seem to be the one who takes the initiative, but in fact, it is not Mian Xing who needs to chase Xi from beginning to end, but Cha Xi relies on Mian Xing. In the eyes of men, Zhuxi is like a little girl who is busy showing her strength, a young man who is eager to protect her father and brother. It's just that the quiet and calm personality of Mian Xing is not broken, and he is willing to let Zhuxi continue to experience the happiness of this payment.
After all, he also loves this woman.
"Yes, yes......"
Mian Xing replied in a long voice, and at the same time withdrew his hand and closed the window, and walked steadily towards Zhuxi. Zhuxi's brows furrowed a little deeper, she was slightly dissatisfied with Mian Xing's attitude and tone towards childishness, but the woman also knew in her heart that the man in front of her seemed to be easy-going and gentle, but the stubbornness in her bones was something that could not be washed away by the dark water of Lethe, and even if she protested, she would definitely be understated, and she didn't want to see it, so she gave up.
"Why are you frowning, it's not beautiful to always frown~"
Mian Xing sat beside Zhu Xi, although he was dressed in black clothes with a considerable area and wide robes and large sleeves, but his every move never brought any breeze and airflow, like a ghost that did not exist. The man smiled and raised his hand, smoothing Zhuxi's brows, the hand that had just been withdrawn from the wind and snow still had a slightly piercing chill, Zhuxi did not hesitate to hold Mian Xing's pale palm, and tried his best to warm him with a pair of soft waters.
Although even if Mian Xing didn't say it, Zhu Xi could still guess the word "small" omitted from his sentence.
But there is no way, after all, the old monster in front of her has lived for an unknown number of years longer than her, even if it is inconceivable, the number of sand in the Ganges River is always there. The person who can let him remove the "small" word in his heart is very rare in the world.
"Hey, how long can you stay. β
"Anyway...... It won't be long. β
Mian Xing raised his eyebrows slightly in annoyance, as if he was calculating something. He knew that he would never be satisfied with this answer, but he might be able to get a moment of relief by deceiving her, but when the lie was not exposed, Zhuxi's anger would far exceed the level of "dissatisfaction".
The woman's clear and crystalline red pupils stared at the black silk on Mian Xing's face, and said in a voice that could not hear joy or anger:
"I remember you told me earlier that this appearance might be the last, is that true?"
The man smiled, "How could I have lied to you?"
Chase the light on the head, thoughtful.
"It's ...... too"
The woman remembered the time she saw the old monster again.
At that time, I was enjoying the sunshine every day, after all, there was nothing else to do in this too peaceful Gensokyo. It was dusk, and the fiery clouds on the horizon were rolling and changing, as if to see off the sun that was slowly losing its shape, and I was ready to return home to recuperate after tasting the last rays of sunset......
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Zhu Xi stood in the sunset, she supported the back of the seat with one hand, her body was slightly inclined like a weak willow supporting the wind, and she looked at the burning clouds in the distance with her eyes of the same color as the sunset.
Wait until the moon rises and go back. Zhuxi thought to himself. Today's sunset is not bad, and it is worth spending some more time.
However, a small, annoying black dot appeared in the field of vision. At first, Zhuxi didn't care, after all, the monsters that would come to him were almost none, and humans couldn't get close to here. She only thought that the black spot was a lonely animal or a dead thing, and none of these things could affect her.
Contrary to expectations, the black dot was getting bigger and bigger, and the outline was getting clearer and clearer, and in a few breaths, it was close to the territory of the Chasing Dawn.
Well, it seems to be an eyeless little monster.
The woman looked at the sun, which showed the last ray of light, and said to herself in a steady tone in her heart.
Wait until sunset to kill it and let it survive for a few more moments.
Naturally, the youkai was unaware of this inexplicable killing disaster, it just moved towards this place at a constant speed, which seemed slow, but in fact it was amazing.
I don't know if it's the illusion of chasing the sun, every time the sun sets in the western mountains, the sun will jump very slightly, as if unwilling to leave the world, but unable to resist the laws of heaven and earth, so he has to leave the scene gloomily.
Ah, the sun is beating again.
The black monster walked in front of Zhuxi with the last rays of sunset, and stood silently and silently.
They came right in front of me, waiting for me to kill?
The woman changed her mind, it seems that this monster has come specifically for me, and has come here to seek death.
Although there are only a handful, there are not no youkai who do this.
Then I will give you a death, painful.
For the sake of such a beautiful sunset today.
Zhuxi lowered his head, and caught all the monsters that he had always only glanced at with his peripheral vision.
"You ......"
The crystal red eyes suddenly expanded, all the words that he wanted to say were forgotten, and the killing intent was left behind, and Zhu Xi just stared at the comer in disbelief, surprised and speechless.
"Under is a nameless demon, self-proclaimed crowned, with no long things, only a black dress, a silk silk, and a bottle of wine. Blind eyes and withered wings, hatred is all over the ground, the day is precarious, and the life is short. β
The man lowered his head slightly, and his eyes, covered by black silk, seemed to meet the red pupils of Cha Xi. His face was pale, his expression was flat, and he spoke slowly and calmly, but there was great pathos and desolation in his words, like the wind blowing through the decaying tomb at midnight, which was not very gloomy and cold, but empty and dead.
The demon who claimed to be Mian Xing stood with his hands down, dusty and embarrassed, but he had nothing to do with himself as if he asked indifferently:
"Will you keep me?"
