Chapter 4: The Man on the Edge of the Cliff
"After this stone pile, you will almost arrive, this is a road sign left in ancient times, and two more hills are the places I want to show you. ”
"There are still two hills! I knew I wouldn't drink your wine, so I came with you to this place. The woman said with resentment.
"Here we are, look at that. ”
There seemed to be a person standing on the edge of the cliff, looking at something in the distance, the woman slowly approached with a lantern, the dead branches at her feet crackled, the hazy candle flame and the light of the stars reflected on the woman's face, and slowly reflected on the back of the man on the side of the cliff.
"Huh, you're wearing armor, and there's still someone in the mountains dressed like this?cosplay?"
"Take a closer look. "Wood to support the forehead.
The lantern had already hit the man's back, "it turned out to be a statue......
"I'll show you something. Wood pulled out a tooth-like necklace from his chest.
"What?"
"Dragon's teeth. ”
"Dinosaurs?"
"It's a dragon, a legendary dragon. The wooden portrait changed to a different person, with sharp eyes, and said seriously. "This is what I was holding in General Lee's hand when he found him. ”
"How can there be a dragon," the woman questioned, "Who is General Li? Which military region is from?"
"There are dragons. This statue is the General. "The voice was no longer like wood, a man of almost thirty, hoarse and warm, and wood was only twenty.
"Brain is broken?" the woman was impatient.
"You'll know when the time comes. ”
"What's wrong with you? Don't scare me! The woman was a little scared, but she couldn't really be a corpse crusher who ran into a pervert the first time she went to the bar, her hand reached into her pocket and grabbed the anti-wolf spray, ready to go.
"Huh?" Wood came back to his senses.
"It's a great thing to pretend to be stupid!" the woman was furious, "You're scared me to death, what are you going to show me?" The woman looked along the cliff into the distance, only to see the glowing night pearl on the thumb-sized Yonghe Pagoda and the light reflected in the tea river. Didn't I come to see this after walking all this way?" the woman was disgusted.
"Wait. ”
"The wind is blowing," Wood said after a few minutes of silence. A strong wind blew, and the grass fell in one direction, and many stars rose from the grass and fled in all directions.
"Stars!"
"Idiot, Firefly. ”
"The emperor is not there, it's so beautiful. ”
"Are you from the imperial capital?
"Haze. ”
“......”
Many fireflies surrounded the lantern, and the woman stretched out her hand, a glimmer of light resting on her palm.
"Thank you for being with me. Wood said.
"I should thank you, by the way, my name is Annie Lee, what's your name?" The woman was ashamed to think that she had walked so far to such a remote place with an unknown person, but she was willing to believe the person in front of her.
"Wood. ”
"Is that anyone's name?"
"I have a friend whose name is Stone, and we are both orphans. Wood said emotionlessly, he was just recounting a fact.
"I'm sorry ......"
"What's there to be sorry for? Stone was adopted and got a name, and I got used to the name wood. It's getting late, so let's go back. "Wood won't care about it for a long time, his parents are just a noun to him, he only has a grandfather, who died before he was sensible. In the night, two figures carrying lanterns on the mountainside walked towards the town.
