Chapter 12: O Great God
The scorching sun slid a parabolic trail in the sky and slowly fell back to the west, and the heat wave of the summer air began to gradually subside, and the sky became dark, and several crows flew from nowhere and landed on the dead trees outside the edge of the town of peace, "quacking", as if calling for something.
The more the edge of the town, the more weeds there are, their vitality is extremely tenacious, even if they are trampled by countless people, they can squeeze out the last vitality and live strongly.
The loess-paved road was full of shallow pits, as if trampled out by giants at will.
"Hahahaha! It's so exciting!" On the way home, Ryder laughed, hooked Pique's shoulder, and said, "It's not your Piqué's character to come up with such a bad idea, it's something like 'his' personality"
Pique was silent, leading the big black foot and walking silently behind.
Ryder looked back at Pique's reaction and knew that he had slipped his tongue, and every time he mentioned 'him,' Pique's mood plummeted.
Ryder couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what a happy person Peake was when he was a child! Since the death of his adoptive father, the number of times "he" woke up has become more frequent, and Peake's personality seems to be slowly changing.
In normal times, if Peake is hurt, he will try to appear happy, and Ryder sees that he often feels distressed in his heart, because he knows deeply that Peake's inner fear, Peake is afraid that one day he will be occupied by that soul and fall into a deep sleep forever.
After Peake's adoptive father died, Peake began to boycott "him" and make Ryder forget "his" name, yes, "he" also has a name, "he" used to write down "his" name in the way he recorded it in his notes, as for what "he" was called, Ryder really forgot, after all, it is the biggest taboo to pretend to "his" name in front of Peake.
It seems that he really has to keep his mouth shut, and he can't talk to 'him' in front of Peake anymore, Ryder thought.
"I'm fine, I was just thinking about the innocent horse, the carriage was overturned by the church gatekeeper, and the horse also flew out, and must have been injured not lightly. Peake muttered, his expression a little unbearable.
Ryder shook his head and said, "There's something else on your mind, Peake, you name it." ”
Peake blinked, understood what Ryder was thinking, and said, "Okay, it's okay, I've thought about it, I'm going to accept 'him' from now on, or I'll always suffer in my heart." ”
Seeing that Peake took the initiative to mention "him", Ryder couldn't help but answer: "Actually, I have spent a few times with 'him', and I found that he is not an evil person, although there are a lot of bad ideas, such as what happened just now, it really looks like his style of doing things, and I remember ...... when I was a child."
When Ryder said this, he suddenly felt that he was talking too much, and glanced at Pique in embarrassment, and saw that Pique's expression felt a little depressed.
"Well, if I wanted to, I could remember what 'he' did when he woke up. Peake spoke in a very low voice, more like he was talking to himself, "I find that my personality and behavior are influenced by 'him', and if this fact cannot be changed, I have no other way but to accept it......"
Seeing that Peake was in a low mood, Ryder slapped Peake on the shoulder with his big hand and said, "I said, brother, don't be so melancholy! I don't want to see sad Peake, you know? You laugh at me! Hahahahaha! Laugh like me!"
Peake looked at Ryder with a heartless look, and was also infected by his emotions, and smirked.
With Ryder, Pique is always happy, even when something unpleasant happens.
Of course, Pique had forgotten how happy he had been and how happy he had been with Ryder's childhood.
"Yes! just laugh!" Ryder laughed, "this is Pique!
Peake looked at Ryder, Ryder looked at Peake, and the two of them laughed.
As the two of them talked and laughed more and more, they soon walked to the vicinity of home.
"Ryder, bring the holy water to your grandfather, I must go back. Seeing the door, Peake stopped and said hesitantly.
"Where's it going?Peake, this is your home!" Ryder was a little annoyed.
"Ryder, my good brother, I have really seen my destiny! I have seen my destiny! I must marry her!"
"It's okay, brother, it's still fateful, it's still home, it's not fleshy!" Ryder pursed his lips and said, "Then when are you going to come back?"
Pique scratched his head embarrassedly, thought for a moment, and said, "I can't be sure, but I estimate it will be a long time...... A month, two months, half a year is possible. ”
Ryder sighed, he knew Pique's character, once he wanted to do something, he would be extremely serious, and he knew that it was useless to persuade him, but he still wanted to continue to stay: "Actually, during the week you were away, grandfather often remembered your ......"
Peake scratched his head and pursed his lips in embarrassment, thinking that he hadn't been home for a few days, and that he would beat his grandfather up as soon as he got home...... Thinking of this, he was full of guilt.
Seeing this, Ryder wrapped his arms around Pique, patted Piqué's back and said, "You go Pique, grandfather and I will take care of it, go find what you want!"
At this moment, Peake felt tears in his eyes, he knew that his good brother was reluctant to him, and he was even more reluctant to give up his good brother.
"Come on, Pique, let's play again!"
"What's playing? Ryder, you're in your twenties, you've grown so big, why are you still like a child. ”
"Hey, play with me once, it's the morning I taught you a prayer, remember?"
"Alright!
Peake closed his eyes, put his hands on his chest, and shouted in the loudest voice: "Great god, I am your faithful believer, please grant my wish and give me the key to open the door of my house!"
Bang!
Peake opened his eyes and looked down not at the key, but at a light blue hat, which had been lost in the panic of the crowd that day, and when he looked up again, Ryder didn't know where he had gone.
At this time, from the wooden building at the door of the house, Ryder shouted, "The gods have heard your prayers!" But now the gods are not happy, next time you will come home to fulfill your wishes, take your broken hat, and go." ”
Peake picked up his hat from the ground, patted the dust on it, and shouted in the direction of the house, "Ryder, I'll be back, definitely!"
There was no sound in the wooden building, and Peake stared at the door for a long time, silently putting on the blue hat, which was left to him by his adoptive father, and which he had always cherished.
Peake took off his hat again, and took out a small packet of things from his hat, which Peake carefully opened.
Yellow medicinal powder in powder form.
Peake put it under his nose and sniffed it, and smelled the smell of two herbs for treating trauma, cloud grass and flower vine, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, these two herbs are extremely precious and valuable, he couldn't imagine that the five big and three thick man's heart was so fine, and he also thought that his hand was injured......
At this moment, Big Blackfoot suddenly shouted behind him, "Ahhhhhhh
The donkey's cry was so loud and loud that all of a sudden it almost scared Pique to his feet.
He had almost forgotten that Big Black Paw existed, so he turned around and patted Big Black Paw on the head, and said, "What's your donkey called? Are you saying goodbye to Ryder?"
"Ah~oh~"
"No, you are not allowed to go!"
"Ah~oh~"
"Don't follow me!
"Ah~oh~"
"What are you kicking me for......"
After the sun gave its last rays and finally set into the western horizon, Pique also walked out of the town and walked in the direction of the outside of the town, a black donkey shouting happily behind him.
