Late at night, the time when the stars fill the sky again. The Wonder did not continue in the darkness of the night, and stopped not far from the main road. I don't know if it was luck or misfortune, after leaving the town with a dock, I didn't see a place to stay until it got dark. Now the Whimsy is surrounded by endless plains, low mountains and sparse woods in the distance. No matter how you look at it, the place where they are now is a wasteland, and only one road that is relatively smooth and clean can be regarded as the only existence with the attribute of civilization.

Next to the Wonders, a bonfire was lit, and two young men and an old man sat together, feeling the rare warmth in this cold weather. In the evening, the temperature was lower, the wind became colder, and Julius felt his face melted by the campfire, and his heart warmed up. He had his hands in front of the campfire, the hairs on his hands gone, and his skin was slightly burning with pain—the extent that a man who had fought a demon of fire couldn't make him pull his hands.

"It's so warm. Lulunaka sat across from Julius, and Romeona sat beside her, "The campfire is a good thing, and it saves money on lodging...... There's nothing better than a campfire. ”

"If you get too close, your face will dry. "Romeona is preparing dinner for the day. On the bonfire was a small iron pot, in which the dried meat was boiling, and the soup was filled with spices, and the fragrance could waft far in the air. It's not a special delicacy, but in the cold wind, it's enough to whet your appetite.

"Even a leaky house is more comfortable than lying down in the wilderness. Julius said, "Lie down in such a place, and you may freeze to death the next day." ”

"You're too weak, you're going to freeze to death. Lulunaka's face was a little strange from the warmth of the campfire, it looked like it had been softened by the firelight, it looked soft, her eyes were open and closed, and she looked like she would lie down at any moment. No matter how warm the campfire is, Julius and Romeona's faces are still tense, and on a night like this, no matter how warm the campfire is, nature always has a way of making you feel the chill.

"Eat something and rest. Romeo noticed Lulunaka's lethargy appearance, and when dinner was ready, she handed Lulunaka a bowl full of jerky and soup. Lulunaka squinted and took the bowl and held it in her hand, the way she looked now made people worry if she couldn't even hold a bowl, "It smells so good...... I'm going to eat ten bowls. ”

"No, then you'll have all the dinner. Julius filled himself a bowl and poured cold water on Lulunaka, "Starve all night, and you're going to freeze to death on the road tomorrow morning." ”

"People aren't that fragile......" Lulunaka muttered as she slowly drank the hot soup, "but when it's time to die, it's going to die easily......"

Lulunaka was saying strange things again, and Julius was used to it, not going to follow Lulunaka's words, and bowed her head to eat her share of dinner. Whatever Lulunaka thought, it was certainly unrealistic to enjoy so-called food in such a place, and after dinner, she was going to lie down on the edge of the campfire, and in the end it was Romeo Ona who carried her back to the carriage and left her in the corner. The alchemy in the carriage still carried warmth, and Lulunaka didn't feel cold when she slept beside her. Romeo Ona saw Lulunaka's smiling sleeping face, if this was the first time they met, Lulunaka was like this, Romeo Iona would probably think that this was some kind of happy child.

For Romeona, the Lulunaka she saw on that sunny day was already a distant existence. And the one in front of her, no matter how much she looked like a child, she couldn't really treat her like that.

After putting Lulunaka down, she left the carriage and returned to the campfire, where she sat across from Julius. Julius was reaching out towards the campfire, his palm aimed at the burning flames, "I'll come to the vigil, you can go and rest." Julius said to Romeo. In such a wild place, there is nothing wrong with leaving someone to keep vigil, night is not the same as day, and a place that is calm during the day is not necessarily safe in the middle of the night. What's more, it was the first time for them to set foot in a completely unfamiliar land, and they didn't know what would happen in this land and in this country—even if Julius was from this country, it would be too difficult to expect a child from a village to understand what a country was all about, let alone a teenager who had just left the village where he had been born and raised, and who had no such concept in his head.

Romeona shook her head, "It's hard to fall asleep next to her. ”

Julius looked like he had heard something interesting, and his expression was wonderful, "You've always slept with her, crammed into the same bed, haven't you?"

"It's said that we slept together, but I haven't been used to it all along. Romeona replied, her eyes on the campfire, a flame dancing in her pupils, brightening her eyes. "Do you know what she looks like when she sleeps?"

Julius pondered for a moment in response to Romeona's rhetorical question, and then replied with a cautious look: "She looks ugly in her sleep?"

In response to Julius's answer, Romeo laughed lightly, much to Julius' embarrassment. "That's the impression she makes. Romeo said. Julius nodded, but Romeona's next words did not agree with Julius, "But that's not the case. She turned her head to look at the Wonders, and in there, Lulunaka was asleep.

"Sometimes, I wake up in the middle of the night and see her sleeping face, and I feel like I'm sleeping next to a dead person. She lay motionless beside me, as if her breath had stopped, and her breasts did not rise or fall in any way......" At this, Romeona did not say any more, and looked at Julius, "Do you think it is strange for her to be like this? Or do you already know that because you have been with her?"

It was the first time Julius had heard that Luluna would look like a dead man when she slept, and judging by Romeona's reaction, it was not an exaggeration, but a fact.

Julius scratched his face, he felt his face be a little dry and itchy because he had been facing the campfire for so long, "Isn't that what she is?"

Romeo was silent for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face, "It seems that this is indeed the case. ”

When the two of them didn't know what to say and were relatively speechless, in the dark distance, a string of firelight lit up, and the sound of horses' hooves was heard.
