Chapter 10 – The Crying Maiden
Zuo Chen lowered his head and fell into deep thought, Sima Ye was not in a hurry, just waited quietly, looking at the surrounding situation from time to time.
After a long time, Zuo Chen raised his head and looked at Sima Ye and said, "I~ want to go to the village!"
Although she had expected it, Sima Ye was still very disappointed, unlike Zuo Chen, her mood was shown on her face.
"Is it~?~!"
Since she came to this world, Sima Ye has always been alone, although she has met a lot in the village, she has never made friends, so Zuo Chen is the first person she is willing to get along with. Now that she is leaving, Sima Ye can't help but feel lonely in her heart, after all, she usually has two younger sisters to take care of at home, and it is difficult to feel lonely.
"Sister Yeye, can you make an agreement with me?" Looking at the sad Sima Ye, Zuo Chen thought about it and said seriously.
"Yes!" Sima Ye's gloomy face regained some of his expression.
"Sister Yeye, I'm too weak now, and if I encounter danger, I can only delay and retreat, so when I'm strong enough, at least I won't lag behind, I'll go to you, and then you will teach me how to fight!"
Zuo Chen actually doesn't need to explain, he believes that no matter when he goes to find Sima Ye, she will treat him as well as he is now, and making an agreement with Sima Ye is just that he can't bear to see Sima Ye's lost appearance, and another point is that Sima Ye made him feel the slight warmth of his sister, that's all.
"Okay! I'll wait for you. ”
After knowing the reason for Zuo Chen's departure, Sima Ye was relieved and said with a smile. "Actually, if you don't say it, as long as you come to me, I won't refuse. ”
Sima Ye's mood improved, Zuo Chen also left with confidence, he waved his hand to Sima Ye before turning around, and resolutely walked to the right, until he disappeared from Sima Ye's field of vision and never looked back.
On the way, Zuo Chen seemed to be very casual, but he never relaxed his vigilance, just properly recalled and thought about Sima Ye's words, and gained a little. If there is no object to be cast, he will use the short sword to make a random comparison.
Sima Ye said that he would almost be able to walk for half a day to the village, but he had only walked for two or three hours to see that it was already evening, and he planned to rest and eat after walking for a while, and go to the village tomorrow with enough spirits.
"Ah~~~"
Not far away, there was a sudden sound of the girl being frightened, Zuo Chen immediately took the short sword, and quickly trotted over with a light step.
"Ah~"
A soft girl was forced by a rabbit, and the girl was very frightened when she leaned against the big tree, and every time the rabbit approached a step, the girl screamed. After all, in a strange world, in a strange environment, anyone will be afraid of a rabbit that is two or three times larger than a normal rabbit.
But the rabbit obviously didn't want to hurt her, maybe it was just curiosity or wanted to get close to the delicate girl, but it was afraid when it got close to the girl, so the current situation was very weird.
The rabbit tried to approach step by step, and the girl didn't know how to escape, but kept shrinking back, so pitiful that she almost cried, and anyone who saw her now would involuntarily want to protect her, and she was afraid of melting in the palm of her hand.
But Zuo Chen was not affected by her, and after rushing over, he was speechless when he saw the situation, and he had the last thought. So, he cautiously came to the tree where the girl leaned, and wanted to hide here.
Just as he was about to take the last step to hide behind a tree, the girl suddenly spotted him, and then looked at him in a daze, forgetting that she was afraid.
Since he was seen, Zuo Chen had no choice but to come out by the way, walked quickly to the girl's side, confronted the rabbit, and waved the short sword in his hand by the way.
"Smack"
Zuo Chen felt the warmth behind him, the girl grabbed her back tightly with both hands and hid behind her, lowering her head, she could clearly feel the girl's trembling body.
Secretly scolded himself, put on a state of wanting to attack and tried to scare the rabbit away, sure enough, it gave Zuo Chen a lot of face, glanced at the trembling girl behind him, jumped away, turned around in three steps, but affectionately.
After the rabbit left for a while, Zuo Chen waited for a long time and the girl did not react, so she had no choice but to speak as gently as possible.
"Little sister, the rabbit has escaped, don't be afraid!"
Hearing Zuo Chen's words, the girl raised her head and secretly glanced around, and then reacted, hurriedly left Zuo Chen, took a few steps back, played with her fingers with both hands, and looked up at Zuo Chen from time to time, very shy.
At this time, Zuo Chen had a chance to turn around and see the girl's appearance, silver waist-length hair, about the same height as him, this is a hard injury, the body looks much softer than him, this is also a hard injury. So, Zuo Chen didn't want to think about it, anyway, she looked very well-behaved, cute and cute, and she didn't need to compare herself at all.
"My name is Chen, you can call me ~ Eh, you can call me anything. Seeing that the girl was still shy, Zuo Chen took the lead in speaking, after all, he was a boy, and he had to have a score and temperament.
The girl raised her head and looked at Zuo Chen suspiciously, and then seemed to think of something and her mood dropped instantly, but she had to answer Zuo Chen.
"My name is Yi Xiaorou, you can call me Xiaorou, Brother Chen"
"Do you know me?" Zuo Chen was very strange about the girl's expression, the meaning of that look seemed to be that you don't know me, although he replied to some memories, but it was certain that he did not reply completely, and his intuition told him that he had forgotten something very important.
As soon as Zuo Chen's words came out, he saw Yi Xiaorou's two lines of tears flowing, and he couldn't stop it, in fact, when Yi Xiaorou said 'Brother Chen', the tears were already flowing, but they were not obvious, and they were covered by hair.
When she cried, Zuo Chen's heart panicked, and he didn't know how to deal with it, his father didn't teach him, and his mother didn't teach him. In the panic, Zuo Chen seemed to hear Yi Xiaorou talking, but her voice was small and couldn't be heard clearly.
He approached Yi Xiaorou and pricked up his ears to listen.
"You can't cry, Yi Xiaorou, you promised······ So don't cry anymore. ”
While comforting himself not to let himself cry, the tears kept flowing down, this contrast, coupled with Yi Xiaorou's now giving people a stupid and cute feeling, I don't know why, he wants to laugh.
In fact, he was already laughing out loud when he couldn't do it, and the situation didn't allow it.
"Poof~ha~ha~"
Yi Xiaorou stopped crying, puffed out her cheeks and looked at Zuo Chen angrily and suspiciously.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to! Ha ha~. As compensation, I'll tell you a piece of my secret. ”
After working hard for a long time, Zuo Chen barely laughed.
Yi Xiaorou nodded in agreement.
"Actually, I lost some of my memories because of some accidents. Zuo Chen put away his smile and pretended to be serious.
In Zuo Chen's cognition, this kind of thing is generally not credible, especially when it comes to strangers who meet for the first time, so Yi Xiaorou gives him the same impression as Sima Ye: simple and serious.
Because after listening to Zuo Chen's words, Yi Xiaorou nodded seriously and thoughtfully, and made a determined expression.
