When Ye Yu woke up, the first thing he saw was the gray sky.

"It turns out that it's really not a dream."

I moved, and my head was still filled with a faint buzzing sound, probably from the monster's roar. The joints of the whole body hurt when they moved, but the touch on the body indicated that there was something on it. He looked down and saw that it was an old blanket, so old that it was no longer recognizable in its original color, and there were seven or eight large and small holes.

"Yo, you're awake." A voice came from the side, one that was clearly male. Ye Hao sat up suddenly, ignoring even the pain in his joints.

Ye Yu found himself in a clearing, the weeds on the ground had been cleared, and not far in front of him was a fire, around which several people were sitting in twos and threes.

That's right, it's human, living human beings, both male and female. Most of them wore a kind of clothing made of loose leaves, which had little function other than shelter. Hearing the sound from this side, everyone turned their eyes.

"Hey, what are you talking about, what are you doing in a daze?" A dissatisfied voice came from Ye Hao's side, speaking Ye Hao's hometown dialect, but the tone was a little different. He turned his head and saw a young man about his age crouching next to him, staring at his face curiously.

"You ...... You're still alive. Ye Yu couldn't believe his eyes.

"What do you mean? Kindness saved you and cursed us, right? The young man stopped doing it and ripped off the blanket on Ye Hao's body, "It's a shame that I still let the quilt out, I knew that you should freeze to death." ”

"No...... I didn't mean that, I mean, thank you. Ye Yu said incoherently.

"Forget it, I knew you were a fool." The boy folded the old blanket carefully, "How can a normal person provoke a devil dog?" You are also fated to live, do you know that in order to save you, Uncle Ma almost ......"

"Kuroko, shut up!" The crisp voice sounded, Ye Yu's ears moved, this was the voice that reminded him last night, and after following the sound, I don't know what, a young girl has come to his side.

The girl has a delicate face and a slender body. On the round face, a pair of big eyes are clear and bright, like a clear spring. With a rusty hairpin pinned to her short hair, and a thin, green cloth-like garment, and straw sandals made of simple plants on her feet, the figure of a young girl looks so thin in the cold winter of December.

Ye Yu stood up with support, nodded at the girl and said, "Thank you, thank you for saving me." ”

The girl's face was slightly red, and she shook her head and said, "Don't thank me, thank you Uncle Ma, it was he who risked his life to lure the devil dog away." ”

The young man next to him stopped doing it again: "What, if Xia Lu hadn't insisted on saving you last night, we would have watched you die a long time ago, and maybe we could pick up a few pieces of leftover meat." ”

A chill surged in Ye Hao's heart, 7l

"Was that monster last night called the Devil Dog?"

"You don't know?" The girl had a surprised look on her face. Ye Yu shook his head dumbfoundedly, and the young man next to him shouted again: "I told you that this person is a fool, and I don't know what to do with it." ”

"Kuroko, if you don't shut up, I'll tell Eminem to go!" The girl glared at the young man, who stuck out his tongue and grimaced, and slipped away stupidly, still arranging Ye Yu in his mouth.

"Don't care, Kuroko is like this, others are actually quite good."

"Ah...... It's nothing, his name is Kuroko, what's your name, oh yes, Xia Lu, how to write it. ”

"Write? What to write? The girl looked surprised again.

Ye Yu was also confused, he scratched his head and said, "It's how your name is written, which two words come from?" ”

"It's Xia Lu, how to write it, what words?"

Ye Yu looked at the girl in disbelief and said, "You can't write?" ”

The girl looked at him with the same expression: "What is a word?" ”

Just when Ye Yu's mind was about to crash, a powerful big hand slapped on his shoulder. He looked back, and there was a tall and strong man standing behind him who was about 1.9 meters tall, even in such a cold weather, he only simply wrapped a piece of animal skin on his body, revealing a large piece of strong and knotted muscles, just his hands and arms looked the size of Ye Hao's head, even the arm muscles of NBA stars may not be so strong. The thick blood vessels were exaggerated between the muscles like a python, and Ye Yu thought for a while that he was standing in front of the Devil Terminator.

There was also a thin old man beside the strong man, wearing a long cloth robe, holding a cane in his hand, and his rough face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were extremely clear, and he was not at all dull and sluggish like ordinary old people.

"Ah, Uncle Ma, Grandpa Shan." The girl bowed slightly to the two of them respectfully.

"Okay, little girl, let's go do things first, I'll talk to the children." The first to speak was the rickety old man, whose words seemed to be very authoritative, and the girl whispered in response, and turned away. Looking at her departing back, Ye Yu suddenly felt a little lost.

"Hehe, okay boy, let's see later." There was a bit of banter in the old man's voice, Ye Hao's face turned red, and he quickly scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Ah...... This is Uncle Ma, thank you for saving me last night. Ye Yu bowed deeply to the tall man. The strong man didn't say a word, like a dumb man, but his eyes softened a little when he saw Ye Hao.

"Young man, I just heard you, you're not a wilderness wanderer, are you?"

"Huh? What is a nomad? ”

The old man also paused for a moment, as if he didn't expect Ye Hao to answer like this, he stretched out his hand like a dead branch, touched the down jacket on Ye Hao's body, raised his head to look at Ye Hao's eyes, and said in a serious voice: "You are from the 'city', right?" ”

"The city? Forehead...... Sort of. Ye Hao's head was a little dizzy, isn't this the city?

The old man showed a smile on his face, and his eyes also had a little lightheartedness, he patted Ye Hao's hand enthusiastically and said, "Can you tell me the old man, what are your parents doing in the 'city'?" ”

"Well, my mom is a magazine editor, and my dad is an engineer."

The first profession didn't attract much attention from the old man, but as soon as the word "engineer" came out, even the strong man whose face had been cold couldn't help but be moved.

"Engineer, your father turned out to be an engineer?" The old man took a step back, and there was a little more awe in Ye Hao's eyes.

"yes, what's wrong with that?" Ye Yu felt that there seemed to be a misunderstanding between the two, but he didn't know where it was.

"No problem, of course." The old man's face was full of smiles, which made the wrinkles on his face even denser, and his whole face was like a blooming sunflower. "But why are you wandering the wasteland alone?"

Ye Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know, old man, do you know what happened a hundred years ago?" ”

The old man was slightly stunned, and then suddenly showed a knowing expression, as if he had figured out something. He didn't answer Ye Hao's question, but his eyes flashed with a cunning brilliance, and he grabbed Ye Hao's hand and said, "Young man, do you know how dangerous it was last night?" That's a devil dog. Even if it's a pony, it's nine deaths, and it almost can't come back, originally, we won't help in this situation, but Xia Lu's child has a good heart and eyes, and she looks beautiful, she is really a good girl. ”

"Yes, yes, thank you." Ye Yu was overwhelmed by the old man's nonsense, so he had to keep thanking him.

Lao Tzu quietly observed Ye Yu's expression, squinted his eyes, and asked cautiously, "Young man, you just said that you can write?" ”

"yes, I will." Ye Yu nodded, "Won't you?" ”

Lao Tzu snorted and said, "How can a wilderness wanderer be able to write?" Can you please write two words, young man, and we'll see? ”

"Okay, do you have a pen?" Looking at the old man's embarrassed expression, Ye Yu nodded in understanding, bent down and picked up a piece of hand, and wrote his name on the ground.

Seeing this scene, the old man seemed to have finally determined something.
