The rain was ticking and beating on the wooden planks on the roof, Yu Xiaobai sat quietly in the simple hut, the night outside was like ink, the sky and the earth were completely devoid of the gentle beauty of the day, and the sea that could not be seen clearly in the distance turned into a black tide surging under the heavy rain in the sky.

The weather at sea is always strange, one moment it is cloudless, and the next it is pouring rain. Yu Xiaobai's fishing village was naturally affected, the muddy beach was in, dozens of houses were scattered on the harder stone soil, and the lights standing in the wind and rain held up the cold rainy night.

The fire burned quietly, maintaining the warmth in the house, the crackling of the firewood against the rattling of the flowing water wading through the undesirable drainage channel, Yu Xiaobai's closed eyelids moved, and the outside was scattered by the rain, and he sensed the chaotic environment. The branches and leaves that were beaten by the rain and couldn't lift their heads, the fish that jumped and breathed, the insects hid in the dirt, and suddenly—a different voice joined in, the door creaked open, the rain soaked the dry wooden lintel, the earth sank, and the difficult footsteps were approaching.

The source is not far away, starting from fifty meters away.

When the footsteps stopped outside the door, Yu Xiaobai opened his eyes.

"Knock knock."

"Yu Baisang, I'm ......"

"Come in."

The calm words sounded as expected, and the young man outside the door who was interrupted had to shut up in embarrassment, wondering if this kind of scene had happened several times.

"Excuse me."

The door was opened, the sound of the wind and rain suddenly became louder, and a second later, it was closed out again.

"What's the matter?" Yu Xiaobai glanced at the person who came and didn't pay much attention to it, and the distance he perceived showed that it was the home of the troublesome little sister, and the person who came was the brother of Zhenyi, Haseki Kaede.

The young man named Kaede came in and took off his raincoat, revealing a face that was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the perennial sea breeze made him look a little more resolute than his peers. After coming in, he saw Yu Xiaobai sitting still, and secretly drummed in his heart, the face in front of him has always been salty and not light after coming to this small fishing village, except that he will become softer when talking to his sister, he seems very unapproachable.

"That ......" Feng rubbed his hands, his face unconsciously brought a simple smile, "It's nothing, it's just to thank Yu Baisang for helping me take my sister these days and causing you trouble." ”

Yu Xiaobai didn't need to look at the other party's face to know that he was talking in a roundabout way, and he wouldn't lie and foreshadow, so he would come directly to the point.

"Well, it's quite troublesome." Yu Xiaobai replied unceremoniously.

"......" Kaede hadn't gotten to the point where he could not respond to the cards that didn't follow the routine, so he froze for a while and scratched his head, "If there's anything else, it's actually that I learned that my sister said something bad today......"

Yu Xiaobai raised his eyebrows, remembering the deflated afternoon, it turned out to be this, "For example?" ”

"For example......" Kaede smiled awkwardly and said stubbornly, "Mao said that you are a wanderer who envies the samurai and can't afford to buy a long knife or something......"

"Didn't you say it in front of her, and then you were learned?"

"This, Yu Baisang must have misunderstood something, Zhenyi is still young and talking nonsense." I can't tell if there is any red on Kaede's dark-skinned face, but it's true that I'm in a hurry.

Looking at the clumsy appearance of this brother who has been tired outside for a day, Yu Xiaobai will not really care, and waved his hand, "Okay, it's raining so hard at night for this?" ”

"yes, I'm sorry......"

“……”

Yu Xiaobai had nothing to say, and in the end, Feng didn't stay long, bowed, put on the raincoat again and returned to the unabated wind and rain. Comes and goes short.

Listening to the footsteps in the rain, the door creaked open and closed again. The house that accommodated the two of them, which was not much better than Yu Xiaobai's dilapidated house, quieted down.

After a long time, the lights went out.

Yu Xiaobai sighed, he came here two months ago and got acquainted with this brother and sister when the other party was too poor to open the pot.

At that time, it was Mao who couldn't help but be hungry and knocked on the door of his new neighbor, but before he could finish speaking, he was reprimanded by his brother and rushed back.

Having just lost their father, they didn't return overnight after going out to sea, and only the battered fishing boat came back a week later.

The elder brother, who was not yet proficient in fishing skills, went out to sea with people jerky, but the harvest was very poor, and he could not even solve his own food problem.

Yu Xiaobai just gave some food and money, that's all.

Then the elder brother Feng seemed to realize the unreliability of going to sea, and began to go to the city, because he was young and found a job as a coolie, although the work was heavy, but at least it was practical and rewarding, and after the day was over, knitting some fishnet shoes and socks, and the two of them would be able to rehabilitate.

It's not easy brother and sister, they snuggle up to each other and struggle in the small fishing village, holding on to the light that still has a little hope.

So in the hearts of the brothers and sisters, Yu Xiaobai, a new neighbor who suddenly arrived, has a different meaning, and the rescue in the most difficult time is also remembered. Mayi loves to play with him, and Kaede is also relieved, and when he hears that he said impolite words, he has to apologize even on a rainy night.

Poor situation Yu Xiaobai has seen a lot, to be honest, it's not unusual, but this sincere brother and sister are still so cute in this bad world.

After confirming that everyone in the fishing village was asleep, Yu Xiaobai opened the door silently, and the wind and rain poured in and hit his immobile body.

Without wearing a hat and raincoat, Yu Xiaobai walked directly into the rain curtain.

After the speed unfolded, the black shadow galloped on the muddy beach, and when the first wave sneaked up in the night, Yu Xiaobai jumped into the air, and then stood firmly on the undulating waves.

The clothes have already been wet, the waves continue to hit the solid body, Yu Xiaobai relied on the chakra, there are no boats and people on the sea in this weather, he stepped on it, the swaying waves were also stepped out of the ripples that could not be eliminated, and the swift people cut through the rain and disappeared in the distance.

The majestic rain in the sky, the thunder flashed occasionally, but it was not in the air, but in the low.

The erratic aurora that was erratic and completely unclear appeared in the sea again on a rainy night tonight.
