I couldn't explain the cruel word, so I smiled and said, "So they give themselves other names and titles." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Some people also have several names that are used to express their uniqueness. Do you want another one?"

"Too much is not good. ”

"It's not good to share. If you have the same name, you can't tell who is who. ”

"Don't be too complicated. I'm afraid I won't remember. ”

After hesitating for a moment, the child said.

It's agreed.

"Hmm. I thought about it and asked him, "It's called Ah Ye, is it okay?"

"Ah Ye~"

"Hmm. ”

"Ah Ye. “

"Hmm. ”

"Does the name matter?"

Unexpectedly, after he read his name a few times, he suddenly asked.

"It's important. I said solemnly.

"Is it me now?"

The child asked confusedly. He still doesn't quite understand the relationship between names and people, so he's not sure if the name is now tied to him, and from now on the meaning of these two words is himself.

"Yes. ”

At night, the temperature on the mountain became a little colder, and the wind became stronger. Ah Ye's messy long hair had dried, and when he looked down, a lock of some frizzy long hair hung down on his shoulders, which made him look a bit like a childish little girl.

I never imagined that one day I would see the long night of childhood, he was not as indifferent and powerful as he was an adult, and there was some childish fragility, and even a hint of stupidity.

Is this what the long night was like when he was a boy?

I couldn't help but chuckle out loud at this discovery.

Long Night came from the Western Wilderness, and when he didn't repel the demon tide, the fairy world didn't know about his existence. Therefore, even if I read all the records about the Long Night, all I got was a few words since the Long Night came out of the Western Wilderness.

As a borderless land with no regard for three things, the Western Wilderness has always been known for its cruelty and chaos, how did he survive in it when he was young?

Needless to ask, it's scary and dangerous to think about.

"Gone. ”

The child suddenly stood up and walked straight out.

"Ah Ye~"

I looked at the half-light figure in the moonlight and blurted out.

The child took two steps, and then realized that the name already belonged to him, so he paused, turned around, and asked seriously, "You called me?"

A thin mountain breeze blew and lifted the corners of his long hair and clothes.

I looked at the clothes that couldn't be distinguished in the moonlight, and smiled slightly: "Tomorrow to sort the medicinal herbs, come early." ”

Silent.

The moonlight was cold, falling in the courtyard, like a clear stream with silver sand at the bottom, and the sand shimmered with waves.

"Hmm. ”

After waiting for a long time, Ah Ye agreed.

The heart I lifted, as his voice fell, fell like a feather suspended in the air.

His reaction during the day indicated that he had been nearby, but for some reason he did not appear. He didn't come out until after everyone had left me and entered the house. Maybe I didn't want to meet anyone else, maybe I had been hesitating and didn't make a decision, but for whatever reason, I decided to keep him by my side and protect him.

Although I don't know what the eons will be in this life, I do know that no matter how this eons come, the people who will go through them are certain. I just need to stay by his side and wait for the right moment to strike.

The mountain wind blew all night.

The next day, the long night did not come.

More than a dozen children from the village came to listen to the class, and there was a mess of chatter.

Until the noise dissipated and the twilight was four, the long night did not appear.

Squeak-

I waited until there was black ink all around me before closing the door.

On the third day, the children did not come, and neither did the three of them.

I absentmindedly dried the herbs, and as usual, I lay in the shade of the tree and closed my eyes to recuperate. Unlike normal days, my mood is not calm. Long Night promised me to come, why didn't I see it?

I couldn't figure it out.

After lying down for a while, I found that I was still impetuous, so I decided not to wait any longer and went down the mountain to look for him.

The mountain breeze blows all the way.

From time to time, bursts of cicadas sounded in the dense forest, and the manless sound echoed in all directions, and in this pervasive summer air, the listeners were a little upset.

Suddenly, the noise stopped.

I looked at the child in front of me and stopped.

The noise that suddenly stopped became louder, and countless cicadas screamed hoarsely, as if they were going crazy, setting off a wave of agitation.

The child, drenched in sweat, was resting in the shade of a tree, and at his feet lay a large bundle of dry firewood, which looked like a small mountain, in front of him.

"Ah Ye?"

I looked at the figure and called out uncertainly.

The shadow seemed to freeze, turning to a familiar, slightly sluggish face.

Ah Ye stood up and looked at me with some embarrassment.

Bang it.

The hill seemed to have firewood and fell with Ah Ye's movements.

That's when I realized that he was twisting his body like that because he wanted to hold on to the wood to prevent it from falling.

"For you. ”

Ah Ye said briefly.

I wondered.

Could it be that he didn't come for the past two days to collect such a large bundle of firewood?

"Thank you. Not anymore, though. ”

I was stunned for a moment and refused.

I don't make fires on weekdays, so I don't need firewood. The things in that house were all kindly purchased by the people in the village.

"You don't have firewood. ”

Ah Ye said stubbornly, her dull eyes were full of persistence.

I remembered the scene of the night before yesterday, maybe it was when he was asked to light the fire, and he noticed this detail. I couldn't explain that I couldn't use those things, so I had to accept them silently.

The cicadas are still chirping.

The two figures walked a short distance away from each other towards the mountain.

It is far more difficult to go up the mountain than to go down, not to mention that Ah Ye's thin shoulders are still carrying firewood that is several times larger than himself.

Beads of sweat continued to roll down his face, but he didn't care, just walked up silently, step by step. Even the dull eyes didn't change a bit.

It wasn't until he put down Chai He that he raised his sleeves and wiped the dense sweat on his forehead.

The towel soaked in the cool stream water fell softly on the slightly hot cheeks, and after a while, the heat that was about to break out of the body was suppressed, and the faint coolness spread from the bottom of the heart. It was as if sitting in the shade of a tree, listening to the stream tinkling over the jutting rocks.

The sun is slanting to the west, and the twilight clouds are in the sky.

When the medicinal materials are finally sorted, this day has finally passed again.

Ah Ye sat quietly on the tree, looking at the faint outline of the mountain peak in the distance.

In the daytime, the mountain was emerald and vibrant, but at night, it became a large black shadow, like a giant beast coiled in the darkness.

Ah Ye's eyes are still dull, giving people the feeling that he is just looking at the mountain and just looking at the mountain, and there is no superfluous thought.
