Chapter 40: I Know Your Secret
Bran looked at the lamb in front of him, and then at the two brothers and sisters in front of him, and suddenly laughed, laughed very happily, laughed extremely loudly, and the laughter lasted for a long time, and even formed an echo in the villa, and the two people opposite him were red-faced with laughter.
The two dragoons stood awkwardly in front of the laughing Bran, but the laughter was endless, which made the two teenagers start to get angry, and their faces became more and more unkind. As the two teenagers were about to erupt, Bran's laughter stopped abruptly, and he turned back to the cottage, and chilled them in the doorway, without saying anything, as if the laughter had just been an illusion. After a while, others came out and let the two into the villa.
When I went up to the second floor of the villa, I saw that Bran was still lying on the rocking chair, and for a while, he was shaking, and his black cat was still holding his hand and lying on him.
Erin looked at it, then walked over to another rocking chair, lying on her side like Zoya, and said, "I have a little secret. ”
Then, she heard a sneer, she heard too much meaning, heard you little brat, heard go away, heard don't bother me, heard that you have a fart secret in the thick disdain, so the little girl's surprise and annoyance appeared on her face at the same time, her face became redder and redder, her fists began to clench, and she was going to smash the idiot's face flat. She is not Zoya, she has a gentle temper, she can hold countless careful thoughts and stories in her heart, she is a warrior who has been trained since she was a child, a dragoon whose ability to act is much higher than the ability of her tongue.
At this time, the target she was about to attack was still with her eyes closed, swaying slowly, unguarded, that is, she was not taken into account at all. It was from the beginning, he was like that, from the first time I saw him, what was that look? This made her anger even bigger.
An eye, preventing her from possible impulsive behavior, Flowey in Bran's arms opened one. Because he was curled up on Bran's body with Bran's arm, half of the black cat's face was buried under Bran's arms and his own paws, and only half of his face was exposed. The eyes of the half face, which was now exposed, were open.
The open cat's eyes stared at her quietly, but they made her feel afraid. She remembered her father's reprimand for her brother last night: "If you don't feel a mortal threat, how can you be afraid?"
She remembered her father's advice last night: "Although that kid is not an idiot, he seems to be mentally abnormal, and we can't afford to stay away from this madman." ”
So she felt nervous and her palms began to sweat. She found that there was no one else around, it was quiet, too quiet. Yes, it was like that from the beginning, from the moment I entered the villa and met him. He always sat quietly by himself, with no one around. What about my brother, where did he go? she wanted to shout......
The long-term training made her subconsciously clench the saber when she felt in danger, and the solid touch made her regain some confidence, and she understood the words that she usually sneered at, they were my companions, my life. Yes, they are my companions, they are my life, they are my dependence. So she slowly sat up straight, straightened her chest, placed the matching sword on her lap, and the panic began to recede from her body, and she felt the power circulate through her body. Although the cat's eye began to flash with more and more dangerous meanings, the little girl could already face it bravely.
It seemed that because it did not intimidate the little girl in front of him, the cat's eyes began to reveal a thick disgust and rejection in humanization, and then just like his master in the martial arts field that day, these emotions began to mix and transform into violence.
Erin knew that the attack was imminent, and although she had a premonition that she would not be able to catch it, she was no longer afraid, she was no longer panicking, she just had to hold on to her weapon as she had usually trained, as her father had said.
Bran reached out and covered Flowey's eyes, gently brushing Flowey's fur, and the beast closed its eyes obediently, purring softly, and then hugged the arm that was still in his arms, looking contented.
Erin, who was relaxed at this time, began to pay attention to the black cat on Bran. This black cat has no sense of existence, more like a shadow of Bran, who cares about a shadow? It is only after experiencing the events just now, and paying a little attention to it, I realize that this is clearly a bobcat, a beast in the jungle, a lonely hunter. But how is this possible? How can a lynx mix with a person, like a pet? With such an obvious difference in size, how can people ignore him?
Erin took a deep breath and said, "I want to ask you a question?" Looking at Bran, who didn't react, she said to herself, "Why are you so patient with Zoya?"
After waiting quietly for a long time, just when she thought there would be no answer, Bran said, "It's not that I'm patient with her, it's that she's patient with me." She just patiently talked about her thoughts, her troubles. And you," Bran sneered, and continued, "though not with too much malice, but with too much thought. ”
After thinking about it, Bran continued: "Whatever you want, it's simple, your past, your brother, your father. Or the view you like, scold the person you hate. This kind of thing is not suitable for children, especially when it comes to family and interests, and we can't afford it. Actually, I'd love to be friends with you, but something has gone bad, so don't bother me. ”
As he spoke, Bran tilted his head slightly in the direction of the entrance of the villa. Erin followed Bran's movements and saw that Zoya was happily trotting towards this side, with a happy smile on her face, simple, clean, and transparent,
Zoya was stunned when she saw Erin beside Bran, and then greeted her with a smile. He stretched out the hand with the ring in front of Bran and asked happily, is it beautiful? Bran nodded slightly, with a smile on his face. Then he took out a hairpin, motioned for the little girl to lean over and bow her head, and helped the little girl put it on her head.
Erin watched Zoya keep asking if she was beautiful in front of her, which made her suddenly a little jealous and a little sulky, so she got up and said goodbye, leaving the dog man and woman behind.
......
His brother was indeed in the martial arts field, and there was also his brother Zhuoma standing next to him, and the two brothers were arguing about the weapons on the weapon rack. Although there was no one else in the martial arts, the brothers did not move their hands and feet very well. Erin always felt that this mountain villa was weird, and there seemed to be too few people in the mountain villa. Also, they had never been invited to enter the third floor of the villa, and only stopped at the second floor, which was a bit rude, but it also aroused the girl's strong curiosity.
Erin wandered along the second floor as if she was careless, and when she felt that she had avoided everyone's attention, she raised her legs and walked towards the third floor of the villa. You can't be sneaky, you have to be natural and generous, just like a normal visit, Erin puffed herself up in her heart. As soon as one of her feet stepped on the third floor, a tall white wolf stopped in front of her like a ghost......
At this time, Bran's sisters were fiddling with weapons in the Treasure Pavilion in the courtyard on the third floor. The weapons in the Bran Treasure Pavilion were only allowed to be seen but not touched at first, but now the ban is basically equal to nothing, as long as they don't take out the attic, they can fiddle with it. These women of the Northland were constantly experimenting with their weapons before giving their opinions. Or be inspired by the strange weapon shapes in the house, and get some new patterns.
A white wolf walked into the patio and rubbed on Dani, Dani put her hand on the white wolf's head and rubbed it, then smiled and said to the others, "There was a little girl who wanted to enter the third floor ...... just now"
