25. Chapter 25

The chirping of cicadas evokes summer, and the scorching sun scorches the billowing dust, rolling and not extinguishing.

On a rare holiday, Izumi Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha sit on the third floor of the Rain City Izakaya, eating desserts and iced drinks to cool off. Chatting and chatting, we talked about the Uchiha Shisui.

"Speaking of which, since Zhishui was transferred to the garrison, I always feel that it is more difficult to see him." It's like the dragon is gone, and the Uchiha Izumi wrinkles his nose with a straw with a blueberry smoothie in his mouth, and he disappears as soon as he finishes his business every day.

Izumi Uchiha and Uchiha Shisui both belong to the Konoha Garrison, and the three of them have always had a good relationship since the beginning. Unlike ninjas who go on missions, the garrison has fixed working hours, so sometimes after work, everyone goes out to get together and holds events similar to socializing.

"Really, Hexiang and they always complain to me about why they don't stop the water. Does that guy know how popular he is! โ€

"Even if he knows he's the way he is now, because it's a stop water." Uchiha Itachi thought for a moment and said.

Uchiha Shisui is such a person, although he has a good personality and values his companions, there are very few people who can really get close to him beyond the boundaries of his companions. Izumi Uchiha once joked if he planned to marry Konoha in the future. The Uchiha stopped the water and just laughed it off.

"That's right." Izumi Uchiha smiled and brought the matter to light.

At the same time, Uchiha Shisui, who was only separated from them by a wall and a courtyard, was lying on his back in the shadow of the corridor to cool off, and sneezed. Reaching out and rubbing his nose, Uchiha Shisui felt a little strange, who was talking about him?

The cherry blossom trees in the courtyard have long since gone, and the verdant emerald branches stretch out to cast large shadows. The water lilies in the small pond are also in full bloom, and the shadows of round lotus leaves drag red-tailed goldfish downstream.

"Get out of the way!" Luo Luo, the beggar who came over with a tray of smoothie bowls, kicked the foot in front of her, and her legs were amazing!

Uchiha sat up cross-legged, took a bowl of mango smoothie from Mu Mingxi's hand, and blinked.

As soon as summer arrived, in order to satisfy his appetite, Mu Mingxi immediately made up an ice drink menu and attracted a large number of customers for the dessert shop on the third floor of Yucheng's izakaya.

Beggar Loro placed her portion of the strawberry smoothie on the low table, on which was a half-opened scroll. Then I sat down and enjoyed myself.

Uchiha Shisui looked at the happy appearance of the white-haired little Lori's bulging cheeks, and couldn't help but feel cute, like a little hamster.

Lazily leaning against the door, the Uchiha Shisui straightened one leg and dug a spoonful of smoothie, which was indeed delicious and very cool. It's no wonder that the third floor of the Rain Castle house is full every day, and even the seats in the izakaya on the first and second floors are occupied.

Hey, it's really good to eat ice in summer!

It was too hot, and Bai Feng and Heizi had no intention of going out, so Mu Mingxi got the two of them some fruit to peck at and eat.

Eating the smoothie, the beggar Luo Luo bit the spoon and suddenly remembered that the usual Uchiha water stop should be in the office building of the Konoha Garrison, "Did you skip work?" "That's really unusual, the model ninja Uchiha Shisui will also skip work one day.

"It's our holiday~" Uchiha Shisui pointed at Mu Mingxi with a spoon and nodded, "Have you forgotten jรฌ, tonight is a summer festival." โ€

Summer festival? Beggars Luo Luo was stunned, ah, it seems that there is really such a thing as this! Mu Mingxi remembered that Yucheng's mother seemed to have told her about this before. But she didn't pay much attention to it at the time, so she didn't remember it.

"But what is a summer festival?" The white-haired little Lori blinked curiously, she had never had such a festival.

"Have you never been to a summer festival?" As soon as the words came out, Uchiha Shisui wanted to slap himself, Mu Mingxi was born in the land of water, where some areas are still at war, and most of them have only just recovered some vitality.

But before he could apologize, the beggar Luo Luo had already curiously asked what kind of festival the summer festival was, and there was no trace of haze in her black eyes, clear and pure.

Uchiha Shisui reached out and rubbed the soft hair of the beggar Luoluo, "You'll know in the evening." I'll take you to play when the time comes. โ€

Stingy! The beggar Luo Luo pouted, "Sister Nai will take me there!" โ€

"I don't know if Huo Genma won't take you there." Uchiha Shisui said with great certainty.

"Then I can go with Shiro!" The beggar Luo Luo puffed out her cheeks and said angrily. In fact, she didn't know what she was betting on, but she just didn't want the Uchiha to stop the water as she wished.

The Uchiha pressed his chin against his chin and said as if unintentionally, "Shiro probably made an appointment with his classmates at school." โ€

Mu Mingxi thought of the scene of a group of little ghosts going out to play in groups, and suddenly felt that she was hit by an arrow in the knee, to be honest, she didn't like many people together_(:ะทใ‚โˆ )_ She was a lone ranger when she was in Datang before, a white phoenix, and a flying willow stepped through the mountains and rivers of Datang. She has made many friends and traveled with people, but in the end, the only ones left are Bai Feng, Feiliu and her.

Maybe it's the incompatibility derived from his bones, Mu Mingxi doesn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people. Compared to the bustle surrounded by the crowd, the coldness of the crowd made her feel more lonely, so it was better not to be surrounded from beginning to end.

Probably, she is really a beggar who lives alone

Seeing the white-haired little Lori who fell silent, Uchiha Shisui lowered his eyes slightly, and sure enough, this kid ......

From the moment he first met Mu Mingxi, Uchiha Shisui felt that this child did not look like an ordinary child at all. When he was still arranged by Tuan Zang in the shadows, and when he squatted in Yucheng's house to keep an eye on him, Uchiha Zhishui noticed that Mu Mingxi always habitually left himself alone for a long time, even if it was just in a daze.

It is the nature of children to be lively and active, and few can endure it like Mu Mingxi. Obviously, he is also very interested in ninjutsu, but when Yucheng's father was teaching Bai, Mu Mingxi never got up.

She doesn't go out much, but she is very polite and never asks for anything. And obviously I don't like to be dressed like a doll by Yucheng's mother every day, but I never brushed off her kindness.

Sensible makes people hope that she can be a little less sensible.

Mu Mingxi knew that she had drawn a circle for herself, and she did not object to others walking in, but she would never go out by herself.

The fireflies that wandered away from the crowd were passers-by, never leaving but never blending in, just quietly emitting a soft and bright light, and then waiting to fade away.

In the end, Mu Mingxi still went to participate in the summer festival with Uchiha Shisui_(:ะทใ‚โˆ )_

At night, the brightly lit streets are more lively than during the day. The temperature at night is not as high as during the day, and as the night breeze blows, it brings a burst of coolness and the colorful windmills spin with it.

Unlike on weekdays, interesting stalls have been set up on both sides of the street, and people come and go, and there are people stopping in front of each stall.

The beggar Luo Luo changed into a bright green dress, and her long hair was tied into a cute double ponytail. The Uchiha gave her a small bear mask, not big, the kind that could cover half of her face at most. provoked Mu Mingxi to glare at him.

Bear children and bear cubs should be together! The Uchiha grinned and placed the bear mask diagonally on the beggar Loro's head.

The Uchiha Shisui is one meter eight meters taller than the beggar Luoluo, and from Mu Mingxi's point of view, he can only look up with the contour of the young man's fair and handsome left face, and the corners of his lips are raised.

Mu Mingxi looked at Uchiha Shisui holding his hand, and suddenly remembered a person who was also so unreasonable to pull himself out of his strange circle.

When the beggar Luo Luo was still a beggar sister, she once had a love affair and was a cannon brother. At that time, Luo Luo, a beggar who said goodbye to Mao Mao and Xiaoyu, had grown into a beggar sister who had begun to take shape when she traveled to Shuzhong.

At that time, he was young and ignorant, and when he arrived at the Tangmen in Shuzhong, Mu Mingxi's first thought was to steal a rolling one and take it home to raise. As a result, he didn't steal it, but instead gave himself to a cannon brother.

He was the same, he was quite unreasonable and entered her circle and forcibly dragged her into his world.

That period of time is the most tender years in the memory of Mu Mingxi in addition to Daoxiang Village and Junshan, and it is also the longest time, they have been to see the Wendao slope in Shuzhong, the clear day sea of Wanhua, the Qixiufang in Yangzhou, the hidden sword mound in the West Lake, the pure yang snow in Huashan, and the evening drum and morning bell in Shaolin.

Along the way, he accompanied her.

Mu Mingxi even thought about taking him to Haoqi League to meet Mao Mao, and then introduced him to Xiaoyu as well.

A few days before the wolf's tooth iron horse broke through the eastern capital of Luoyang, Mu Mingxi still wanted to take him back to Junshan to meet the lion tiger, joking that the relationship between the beggar gang and the Tang Sect was not very good, and the lion tiger and tiger would probably beat him with a dog beating stick first.

At that time, Brother Pao just laughed and said, that will also be suffered.

The city of Luoyang was broken, Tongguan was on the verge of being lost, and half of the Tang Dynasty was dyed by the war. She was urgently recruited by her master to lead the beggars to help her disciples go to the battlefield, and he was also recalled to the Tang Sect.

Before parting, he gently dropped a kiss on her forehead and said, When the first qiฤ“ is over, I will take the roll to Junshan to ask for a kiss.

She jokingly said that the dowry is too small, how can one roll be enough.

He said that he was going to arrest all the rolling rolls, and he admitted it.

"Then you will be expelled from the Tang Sect ......"

"Then you'll take me in."

However, the war was far more cruel than Mu Mingxi thought. Chang'an City was trampled by the wolf's teeth and iron hooves, and the original prosperous capital was reduced to scorched earth overnight. The love of children is long, and it seems so insignificant in the chaotic times.

People around me are dying every day, from crying to numbness.

In the end, the war lost everyone.
