Winter mornings are colder than before.

I rolled over in my sleep, my right hand following my body to the other side, as if pressed against something soft, and then I heard a faint whine.

I opened my eyes and saw that in front of me was the cute sleeping face of the earth boy, he opened his small mouth and breathed warm air, because he slept without glasses and was a little less rustic than usual, if he took a closer look, he looked like a girl, no wonder I usually like to laugh at him for being a sissy.

It seems that he inadvertently put his hand on this kid's chest.

It's okay, although the appearance is so thin, but it still has a bit of pectorals...... It's just a little softer.

I pulled my hand back and remembered how I slept with the dirt boy.

This is the research room of the Gathering Dragon Pavilion, and we were working on the third version of the Spirit Gun assembly all night last night. In the end, the assembly was completed, and we were too sleepy, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, and slept in the only bed, which has happened two or three times in the past two months, so I don't really care.

The earth boy's hair moved, as if because my hand had just pressed on him, and he had begun to wake up.

When he opened his eyes and saw that I was looking at him, the earth boy was dazed for a while, and then hugged the quilt tightly in horror and looked at me nervously.

"Teacher?!"

This is a little too timid, I remember the first time we spent the night together in the lab, and the next day he woke up with such an exaggerated performance, and now it is relatively normal.

I greeted him and apologized: "I'm sorry, I think I accidentally touched you and woke you up." ”

The earth boy quickly understood what the situation was, exhaled with relief, shrunk his face into the quilt, and only showed his eyes to look at me and whispered: "It's okay, two people sleep together, there will always be some physical contact......"

I don't care, this kid has a really good personality, and he is very suitable for being a little brother.

As if trying to divert the subject, he looked at the window next to the bed, and through the open opening for ventilation, he could see the scenery outside.

It's still early, the sun outside is soft, and you can see a little bit of starry snowflakes falling.

"It's snowing again."

The earth boy looked out the window in fascination at the snowflakes.

I casually responded, "Well, it's a little cold." ”

Immediately after that, neither I nor the earth boy had any intention of talking. The research room was quiet again, so quiet that I was sleepy again, it was so cold and warm outside, I closed my eyes and moved my body and continued to sleep.

After a moment of hiding under the covers, he climbed from me to the edge of the bed and got out of bed.

He asked me on the bed, "Master, do you want to continue sleeping?" ”

"Hmm...... Sleep for another hour. ”

"Okay, I'll go get breakfast ready...... Master, you seem to be able to sleep better than before. ”

"It's cold, I'm going to hibernate."

"Is it a bear?"

I'm lying in bed, and the boy is very diligent, and he lives a very regular life.

I heard him quietly change his clothes and put on his boots and walk out of the lab, and soon my consciousness fell asleep.

Indeed, I was able to sleep better than before.

It's not just a matter of getting cold and reluctant to get out of bed, it's that the body is rapidly weakening and needs more sleep, and even soaking in the wine pool every night can't stop this debilitating reality.

In another two or three months, when my pathology becomes more obvious, should I find a place where no one is waiting to die?

I slept so deeply for a long time, and I seemed to hear the sound of someone entering the house halfway, so I ignored the person who entered the house, and continued to sleep for a while before waking up full.

The boy came back to the research room and left, a few buns that had cooled down on the table, and left a note.

I got out of bed, got dressed, put on a thick sweater, and then walked slowly to the table and picked up the note to read.

I saw that it was written: "Teacher, I have to go back to see my father first, and I may come back very late." I've already brought it earlier, but it may be cold by the time you wake up, Master...... By the way, I brought the newly made spirit gun back to my dad to see, but the funds were a bit insufficient, so I persuaded my dad and begged him if he could sponsor our research. Oh yes, it's cold, the teacher should remember to wear more clothes......"

What a carefree student.

But when it comes to funding...... I regret that I didn't sell the pictures of my master, my sister and my brother to the hungry wolves of the single teacher, and now I rely on the earth boy for food, clothing, housing and even research funds, which really makes me a teacher embarrassed.

Even he, a rich young master who seems to be a rich second generation, is now in a state of insufficient money.

Fold the note and set it aside, glancing at Kiyohime who was placed in the corner of the wall of the research room.

Today, as always, she still hasn't woken up, and I don't know when she'll be able to talk to me again, as if talking to her, but maybe when I die, this wish won't come true.

Originally, I was going to test the power of the new spirit gun today, but the earth boy took the spirit gun away without telling me, and this plan could only be interrupted.

After so many days of studying, today is a day off, and it's better to go outside for a long time.

I put Kiyohime on my back, took out the paper umbrella in the small gourd, and put all the buns in the small gourd, and walked out of the research room while nibbling.

It's been snowing occasionally in the last month, and it's white everywhere outside, and everything is covered in snow.

I opened the paper umbrella and left from the Julong Pavilion to the way to Shuijing Peak.

I haven't been back to Shuijing Peak since that night, and I haven't seen them again. At that time, they were not killed, it was purely because the master remembered the old feelings, and I didn't go to see them now, but today I suddenly wanted to walk around a place in Shuijing Peak, so I went back.

After leaving from the crowded Zhengyang Peak, I walked to the Hongyun Corridor with a paper umbrella.

A person silently walked in this long rainbow cloud corridor, and his heart was extraordinarily calm.

Looking at the Shuijing Peak and Zhengyang Peak, which were covered with snow on both sides of the cloud corridor, as well as the peaks and ridges in the distance, because the snow curtain was vast, only their vague mountain shadows could be seen pure white.

Re-stepping on the land of Water Mirror Peak, there seemed to be no sound to be heard here except for the cold winter wind that was not too strong. There are no voices, there are few bird sounds, and other insects and beasts are rarely heard.

In front of him is a fork in the road, leading to the Shuijing Peak House Group on the mountain, and the other is to the foot of the mountain.

I stepped down the trail to the bottom of the mountain, holding my umbrella, and walked down the mountain along the snow-covered path with no steps visible.

After walking for a while, you will stop and look for your way in the snowy forest, and you will walk for a long time in search of the invisible road, and finally you will not go in the wrong direction.

I came to the little waterhole again.
