Section 35 Dream Day (4)
(4.5 Second Update)
"Beloved Princess, please stop at your beauty! The condensed fireworks are also looking forward to the bloom of your arrival, and the knight who has taken the oath of allegiance will fulfill his long-cherished wish. ”
Xiao Yi, who was riding condescendingly on the back of the tiger, looked at the earl who was kneeling on one knee, and laughed out loud at the incongruous etiquette, and then nodded shyly.
"Then Mr. Commander, thank you for your hospitality, and you can leave a strong memory in the title page."
Standing up, I took Xiao Yi's outstretched right hand, and with a slight force on my left shoulder, I held the princess in my arms. The surprise attack made Xiao Yi a little uncomfortable, and kept rubbing against my chest, passing her sudden rise in temperature.
"Tonight, the princess will obey the arrangement of the knight's escort plan, and the game has begun!"
Xiao Yi leaned against my heart, listening to my unsteady pulse, clutching my shirt with both hands, the only defense she could possibly make. The princess weighs less than one-fifth of my daily training, but her feet are very heavy, and although it is not a millimeter of stride, it is still not smooth.
Coming to the empty square, the fierce competition seemed to have begun, and the commentator who was arrogant and unrestrained enthusiastically conveyed the carnival night to the audience.
"Princess, are you ready? It's time for the final sprint! ”
Xiao Yi shook his bracelet and signaled to the gatekeeper blocking the tower to the late contestants, and before they could help but see the dust that filled the air after the stride was flying.
The winding staircase, if not to heaven, is a mystery to the unknown.
"Bell, are you still here?"
Inside the old castle in the pitch black, there are occasional bats with faint red dots. Xiao Yi, who was following me, had begun to doubt the possession in his hand and needed to verify my existence with words.
"Shhhh Loud noises attract man-eating demons. ”
The abandoned castle of the Earl's Court has become a forbidden place for no one to visit, and rumors circulate among the slaves that the old Earl's heroic spirit lodges here, and every night they will come out of the settlement room and attack unknown intruders. As for the memory of grandpa, we can only conceive some past events that may never have happened by looking at that expressive portrait and cooperating with imagination.
Walking on the wall can at least block the invasion of the cold, but the light movement reaps the unexpected and violent footsteps, which are constantly amplified in the long air.
"Bell, look there!"
Xiao Yi's trembling tone was so rapid that it almost suffocated me, it was an unremembered room, and it emitted a ghostly blue shimmer, which almost exactly matched the legendary ghost.
"Eh, are we going back? He didn't seem to welcome us. ”
"It doesn't matter, if it's Bell's grandfather, you must know Bell!"
Xiao Yi comforted me who was cowering in the corner, and the window fanned in the wind almost made me run away, and the only thing I could not deceive about the bravery I was myself. Xiao Yi touched my head, and it was the only warmth that could be felt in the cold.
"Let's go in and have a look!"
Xiao Yi crept to the gloomy door, the glimmer of light scattered from the cracked crack irritated my sensitive nerves more and more, and beyond that, there was only the frolic of rats at night.
Xiao Yi stood up and knocked on the door, but there was no mixed sound except for the cold wind whistling in his ears. Broken in by default, Xiao Yi pushed open the unlocked wooden door, and it was the arrival of a group of uninvited guests, who flew out of the window with a chatter, a bat caught in a closed cage and saw the way to escape.
Shivering close to the source of the blue light, making the originally restless heart become uneasy, is it a disguise for the soul to forage? The candle lit by Xiao Yi completely revealed the truth of the matter, which turned out to be just marbles played with when he was a child, refracting his true color in the moonlight.
After that, they gathered on the dilapidated sofa until dawn, without waiting for the nostalgic soul of the grandfather to return, and did not find any other raiders. Legends can only stay on the basis of proverbs, and lies can only create unfounded gossip.
Walking out of the castle, it has ushered in the dazzling but warm morning light, waiting for the anxious face and delicate face in front of the door with the demolition of the castle, also fell into my memory.
"Sure enough, is Xiao Yi very heavy?"
Walking on a similar ladder, he found that he was already in an advantageous situation, the trailing man behind him had given up the game out of breath, and the leader in front of him also slowed down his pace of movement and struggled to move forward.
"Yes, it's very heavy!"
Xiao Yi raised his head and looked at me innocently, but he was very shy, and he didn't have the courage when he was a child, but the change was also the transformation I experienced.
I put one hand free to touch Xiao Yi's head, just like she comforted me when I was a child, and the other hand did not feel excessive pressure.
"Stupid, holding a world, of course it's heavy!"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi didn't dodge her already hot face, just stared at me intently, but made me turn my face a little shyly, sure enough, she was still braver than me.
There was nothing challenging about it, and after a few minutes I was already far ahead, leaving the rest of the men wandering on the steps, full of messy stunned, and also giving up the resistance of the chase. The light not far away should be the end of the ladder.
"Congratulations, young master, you have won this competition, did you have the chance to win when you make your donation?"
The attendant at the information desk changed careers and became the head of the review at the end point, conducting some necessary but meaningful interviews. I didn't get a chance to speak, and I was preempted by the complicated rules to complete the volley.
"Although it seems to be a love affair, according to the arrangement, the two of us need to change into our carefully prepared dresses and participate in the final ceremony."
Xiao Yi waved to me, and went to the makeshift locker room on the high platform to meet the sponsor's strange request. I was also invited to another room for professional packaging, which became a gimmick to promote the goods.
The exquisite skill of temporarily changing the size is matched with a self that I have never seen before, the long sleeves that are infinitely relaxed, and the upper and lower capes completely envelop the body, and completely subvert my already incomplete aesthetic.
Equipped with a finished product, it is pulled in front of the mirror for final appreciation and adjustment. The clothes that don't fit in with the body are not ugly in the reflection in the mirror, but there is an incongruity between the characters, and it is easier to walk than in my tight shirt.
"So, are you still happy with this outfit?"
"At least it's not a nuisance."
"Then let's avoid it first, tonight's stage, only the handsome prince and the beautiful princess, I wish you a happy time in advance!"
Holding on to the low wall in front of the tower, waiting for the princess who has not yet appeared. There is no moonlight in the pine stars, but the bonfires lit in the square make up for the gloomy night, and the endless crowds enjoy the last joy before the end of the festival. When you open your sleepy eyes again, you may be greeted by a cruel reality. The blankness in my memories is the origin of my sentimentality, and it is also the truth that I cannot fabricate. In the past, I may have wandered in the joyful crowd, but now, I can only stand alone on the cold platform, the demolished ladder, and trapped in a trajectory with no choice.
"Bell!"
After turning around, the dappled afterglow of the lights reflected the shadow of an angel. The holy light in the darkness withers with the wind on the lonely shadow; The slightly swung long skirt soothes the dry heart with the waves on the blue sea; A little red decorated with short black hair glows with the vitality of all things withering. The whitewashed cheeks have a natural charm, and there is no need to disguise the beauty that Venus will envy.
"Isn't that weird?"
Staring into Xiao Yi's eyes, there was a pure hollow. I was a little dizzy, and my body began to tilt with the concussive heart, and I was lost in the absence of gravity balance.
"No, no, it's cute and suitable!"
Vibration of the air, no gas exchange of breath. Suddenly there were cheers, and gorgeous fireworks followed, but I didn't care about appreciating the beauty in front of me, and the cool feeling of closing my eyes was not bound by a closed space this time, just in the wide space of blooming flowers, waiting quietly, without an eternal curtain call.
"Bell is too cunning!"
Xiao Yi listened to the sound that still echoed in the air, and curled up in my arms aggrievedly, while I, not knowing where to go, could only wander in the sweetness left by my moist lips.
A violent shock, confusing the sense of sight and hearing, the figure in front of me, the voice calling in the ear, completely confused, my head hurts, it is the endless horror memory that is about to fall, and my fall, once again with the extinction.
