Chapter Ninety-Nine: Together
The wooden plank blocked the entrance of the hole, and Zhao reached out and gently moved the plank away.
"Let's go." She burrowed into the hole and beckoned backwards, signaling to follow her.
"Don't go." He squatted behind and frowned, "This is someone else's privacy, we have the courage to break into it like this... Not so good."
Zhao raised his eyebrows, raised his thumbs, and praised his sudden discipline...... He immediately turned his head and resolutely got in.
"Hey, wait for me!" What a pity to see her like this, she followed with both hands and feet, and her delicate face was very anxious, "Why don't you listen to persuasion!" ”
Outside the entrance to the cave, about a quarter the size of a basketball court, is a unique cage, above which is a roof made of sparse wood, looking up, you can faintly see the moonlight, and the mist on the edge of the cliff, on the left and right sides are hard rocks, the weeds next to the rocks are overgrown, mostly withered and looking messy, and there is a wooden table in the far corner, missing two feet.
He walked over and straightened the wooden table.
"It's been a place where people have lived before." Zhao found a few debris in a pile of weeds, fragments of clothes, and remnants of moldy food.
What a pity, interest also came, and began to rummage through a pile of weeds.
The cage was so small that they couldn't see anything famous when they looked through it.
"What's going on?" The two of them stared at each other, feeling more and more curious about this inexplicable cell.
"I don't know." Zhao looked around blankly and sat down. Looking up at the moonlight overhead, I felt a little more tired in my heart, such a place. If you live with someone, you are either a pervert or a masochist.
The terrible thing about darkness is that you forget about time, forget about space, keep intimidating yourself, and finally have a mental breakdown, the environment here is no less than the impact of a small black house, even if the moonlight is like water. It's hard to hide the horror.
"Say, is that cliff a ray of heaven that we passed by today?" He regretted pointing to the night above the mist, "I never thought that there would be a cell down there." ”
Zhao was silent. After glancing at the outside environment, he suddenly stood up, "Go, go back." ”
"Not looking for it?"
"It's almost dawn. Get back. ”
…………….
Nothing was said all night.
The day dew fish belly white moment. The crows of chickens resounded in the col.
When she came back late last night, Zhao fell asleep deeply, and when she woke up, the sun had already shone into the house, she was refreshed, opened her eyes, and slammed into a pair of cute eyes.
She sat up in shock and looked at Xu Busily standing at the head of the bed. My heart was beating wildly.
"What are you doing here?" She suppressed her frightened feelings and asked in a low voice.
"Eat. Rice. Xu hurriedly picked up a bowl of chaotic things from the stone bench next to her and sent it to her, Zhao took a look at it, and was immediately overwhelmed by this exquisite cooking skill.
"What's this?"
"No, you know, he did." Xu hurriedly pointed to the pity of being busy outside the window.
Zhao was stunned, and after looking at this bowl of messy things, she took it and put it aside, and asked, "What do you think of the taste?" ”
"......" Xu Busian's eyes flashed a little dazed, and he probably didn't know how to describe this weird breakfast.
Zhao District laughed, and he was not reluctant, and walked out with him.
Life in the village was monotonous, but their initial purpose was to take a break, and it stands to reason that they should have continued their journey today. But last night's cell made her curious, and it was a little difficult to choose for a while.
"Ah Xu, did you sleep well last night?" She crouched down and asked the little boy who had not spoken much.
"Well, that's good." Xu hurriedly replied calmly.
“…….”
He is full of curiosity about a qiē here, yesterday I went to collect firewood like a fool, today I first volunteered to make breakfast, and then jumped up and down in the yard, Zhao District was dazzled to watch, and finally when I wanted to see the dried bacon on the tree, she stopped him.
"Stop for a while! I have something to say. ”
He ran over grinningly, and said a few words when he passed by Xu Bus, who was painting on the ground, which was also heartbreaking...
"Are you crazy?" Zhao District glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Do you want to leave today?" ”
"Let's go? Where to? "What a pity to be at a loss.
Zhao looked at him expressionlessly and pretended to be stupid.
"Oh, the enrollment of the Apocalypse Academy is in the winter moon, isn't the time coming?"
"Where is the enrollment location?"
“……”
"When?"
“……”
"Who's taking the exam? What is the content of the exam? ”
“…”
"You don't know anything, do you?" Zhao stared at him sharply.
He turned his head in embarrassment.
"Men are unreliable, no girl will like it, boy." Zhao District sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and said seriously, "Yue Qingzhen said that she likes the fifth morning stream, so you don't have any ideas?" ”
This topic is a bit far, but the question hits the heart, and I am about to cry no matter what I regret.
"How could I not have an idea... I'm thinking too much! Isn't the fifth morning stream more beautiful? Lao Tzu is richer than him! ”
“……”
"What do you mean by looking at me like that?"
"I think it's an advantage for men to be rich, but if you look at it again, the more she is lacking money, isn't she?"
"There is no shortage."
"Yes, why should a beautiful woman who is not short of money fall in love with a very rich man? First of all, money is not what she needs, and secondly, or the question, what do you have besides having money? ”
What a pity to fall into deep thought.
"You're not as good as the Fifth Morning Stream, are you?"
"It seems so..."
"And what are you better than? Just give up, if I am clearer, I also like that little white face. ”
These words are close to punishing the heart, what a pity to cover your face.
"But fortunately, you are still self-motivated," Zhao began to help him save his respect, "Look." You all know that you go to the Apocalypse Academy non-stop to study and make up for your shortcomings, this is the advantage! Girls can't resist self-motivated boys the most. ”
"But—" He regretted covering his face. A few words came out from between his fingers, "But I'll go to the Apocalypse Courtyard... Just to see her. ”
"......." was silent for a long time, Zhao Guanqu pursed his lips and said, "You are really hopeless." ”
She couldn't understand why a person could like someone to such an extent, as if all the steps were revolving around the other person, completely losing the meaning of life.
Such a like. Will anyone accept it?
She is not a preacher, and she does not want to be a preacher, so she is a friend of hers. One sentence doesn't make sense, two sentences don't make sense, so he can only let him hit the wall by himself.
Life needs some frustrating things to make adjustments, and one day you will understand.
……….
The two squatted aside and talked for a long time. The sun's rays are getting stronger. Seeing that it was almost noon, Xu hurriedly stopped painting and came over, "At noon, who is cooking?" ”
The two people who asked were asking, but their eyes were staring directly at Zhao District.
Obviously, he is also desperate for what he regrets about his cooking.
Live in someone else's house, at the request of the owner. If you can accept it, you will refuse, and Zhao will bow his head happily.
Step into the kitchen in the back room. Startled, she pointed to the pile of pheasants in the corner of the room and asked, "Where did this come from?!" ”
The pheasant came inexplicably, and squatted in the corner obediently, as if he had been drugged.
Sure enough, Xu Hurry heard her shouting, walked in to look at her and said, "I caught it last night." ”
Unravel the puzzle in one sentence.
So he went to catch pheasants last night?
"This kid is amazing," He regretted walking in with firewood, and said with a smile, "I heard that he was stunned by himself with Ecstasy Grass, and the animals in the back mountain are probably still sleeping." ”
The corners of Zhao District's mouth twitched, and he laughed dryly.
A child can do a mountain of beasts, and there's a cage under the room... It's pretty impressive...
"It's okay to eat this chicken." Zhao asked with his head bowed.
"No, nothing." Xu hurriedly grabbed a chicken, twisted his hands, and the chicken's head hung down silently, "If you die, the drug will dissipate." ”
With that, he put the dead chicken in her hand.
“…….”
Where's the little monster!
Zhao District's eyes widened, looking at what a pity, and made a look.
"Ahh He was also frightened by that neat technique, so he hurriedly ran over, pulled him and asked, "You go out first, and my sister and I will cook." ”
Xu hurriedly walked out obediently, and the two looked at his back in a daze.
……….
The second family in the village is far away from here, and after eating lunch, Zhao took two dead chickens to visit the people in the village.
At the door of the second household sat an aunt, weaving straw ropes at the door.
"Auntie." Zhao said with a smile, "I'm busy." ”
"You are?" The aunt looked at her with small eyes open and a puzzled expression, and words with an accent began to pop out of her mouth, "You're from Larry, what are you doing here?" ”
She pursed her lips, was silent for a long time, and obediently put the gift in her hand.
"Don't you dare to take it!" The aunt smiled happily, she didn't accept what she said, but her body took the pheasant very honestly, and then pulled her into the house, "Come, come and drink water!" ”
Zhao took two sips of water and began to get to the point.
"Auntie, do you know the children of the first family in front of you?"
As soon as she heard this question, the honest woman in front of her was a little flustered, she pulled Zhao District and asked in a low voice, "Why do you want to ask this?" ”
"What do you know?" Zhao District smiled, "I still have a lot of pheasants, and I don't know how to deal with them." ”
When the aunt heard this, her eyes lit up, and she said, "The children don't know how to run the house, and if the pheasants can't be eaten, they can give them to the people in the village. ”
"He only appeared in the past few years, inexplicably, wandering in the courtyard of the Xu family, and also likes to play chess alone at the entrance of the village, my cub liked to play with him, but he came back in a few days, the cub said, the child likes to go to the back mountain, and he disappears after shopping, and he is like this several times."
Zhao said with a smile, "It's more than that, right?" ”
"Ouch, you baby is shrewd, it's definitely not like this, that kid has a lot of strange places, I'll just say one thing, a few days ago, our mountain grandfather in this place was angry, and a lot of stones were smashed down the mountain, and the house was smashed a lot, but fortunately, no one died, you know why not?"
The eldest aunt pretended to be mysterious, but when she saw her squinting eyes, Zhao couldn't help laughing.
"The child found the village chief before Grandpa Shan got angry, and told him that the rocks were going to fall on the mountain, and let those families move away quickly, no one believed it, but the village chief is also a perfect character, regardless of the fact that he will let people move away, and wait for the time he said to pass, who knows, this child is more accurate than the blind fortune teller outside, but I am thinking, why does a child speak so accurately? Isn't it a demon? ”
Zhao smiled and saw the shadow of Wang Aniang, who sold tofu next door a long time ago, in her.
It's the same looks, the same words.
As soon as the two words demon came out, Zhao suddenly felt a little more intimate with Xu Xian.
Judging from this incident, the child is pure and kind, and no matter how capable he is, he will not do anything harmful, at most he will harm the animals in the back mountains.
Suddenly, she lost interest in the cage under the child's house.
"Oh, you haven't told me where you're from?" When the aunt saw her silent, she couldn't help but say, "Let me tell you, the terrain of this village is not good, few people come, where are you from?" ”
"I'm coming from outside the mountain, come here to rest, and I'll leave tomorrow."
Zhao said with a smile, and prepared to say goodbye to his aunt.
Who knew that as soon as the aunt heard that she was from outside, her eyes sparkled, and she pulled her and began to say, "Ouch, I haven't been out for a long time, you tell me about the world outside, I'll call my cub over to listen together, don't go, don't go." ”
"......" Zhao wiped his sweat, watched the back of the woman walking into the inner courtyard, and began to run out with oil on the soles of her feet.
It's horrible.
Auntie's thirst for knowledge is so strong....she definitely can't cope with it.
She's stupid not to go.
………….
When he returned to Xu Xi's busy home, He was playing with this little boy.
Two people crouched on the ground, fiddling with chess pieces with branches.
Seeing her come back, He regretted also putting down the branch and stood up, "How is it?" ”
Zhao nodded, "No problem." ”
There is no problem with Xu Busy's conduct, but his personality is a little weird.
It's fine.
He was very happy and began to act as an afterthought, "I already knew that this kid was fine, but he was suspicious." ”
Zhao District laughed twice.
"Hurry tomorrow, pack your things tonight!"
This sentence is estimated to be a bit loud, and Xu Busily, who was on the side, suddenly raised his head and answered, "My things have been packed." ”
This sentence was inexplicable, and Zhao was stunned for a long time before he understood what he meant.
"You're going with us?"
"Yes, I've been waiting, for a long time." Xu hurriedly looked at her.
Zhao was terrified, "What did you say?!" ”
Xu Xian was still looking at her in a daze, but he asked on the side, "You two know each other?" (To be continued......)
