Volume 2 Time Chapter 05 The Gift of Life
There is no beauty in the world, and I don't want to give birth to this world
The snow covered the sun, the sky was gray, and the whole land was wrapped in a layer of holiness. In the distance, white, gray, and black are intertwined, making the rolling mountains as unreal as a fairy tale.
Tianzidu City is northern, not far from the coast of the mountain col there is a small village of seven or eight families, a red brick and blue tile house on the side of the road came out of a little sound, intermittent, not careful to distinguish is easy to be covered by the cold wind. The peeling red lacquer door was locked, and the gray smoke coming out of the chimney made the smell of soot a little heavier.
Bypassing the straw-covered cellar in front of the left side of the gate, there is a low wall that can only be used to protect against gentlemen. Climbing over the low wall to the side of the kitchen, looking through the disproportionately wide window, an aluminum kettle boiling water sits steaming on a long chimney stove sticking out. The room is full of fairy spirits, no! It's foggy...
Faintly visible in the mist, sitting opposite the window is a girl in a red floral cotton jacket, her right hand is against her chin, her good-looking brows are slightly frowned, her slender eyes are half-closed, and she bites her red lips...
Time, at this moment, seemed to stand still, making it uncertain when the last breath was. It's like you flirted with your spring heart, and she inadvertently responded to your charming, so it quietly melted away, filling the whole heart, where gently rippling, a circle of ripples of love...
Before they had time to savor it, they were interrupted by a crisp sound of "pop", and a few snowflakes on the window were startled, and they fell and disappeared in extreme reluctance...
I don't know whose big dog in the village seems to smell something strange and is restless...
"To (from)-touch! Hoo! Haha..."The voice is crisp and pleasant, yes, and a little arrogant.
"Flower, what are you doing, you're asleep!" A panda-eyed, lazy youth squinted and blamed.
"Well! Playing a broken card, I was shocked, and I scared my mother out of heart disease! "The middle-aged woman in the green jacket has white eyes.
"Well, I'd love to! Whatever, that's not a reason for you to pay your bills. Nalan Hua shook her head proudly, quickly snatched the gray banknotes in the hands of the three of them that were ready to pay, counted them one by one, and chuckled lightly at the corner of her eyes with the other party's hand that she hadn't had time to retract.
"Alas! I'm home, I'm starving, hurry back and cook for me. The middle-aged man with a Mediterranean hairstyle stood up and urged the woman in the green jacket.
"No, I don't have money to buy meat for a month!" The other two were not interested, and stood up.
"Shhhh Only lost a few dollars, shouting so that the whole tun could hear it? "Nalanhua is not relenting.
"Then you give it back to us!" The Mediterranean man turned his head and held out his hand to her.
"No! Willing to gamble and lose! Nalanhua raised her eyebrows and quickly put the banknotes into her sleeve, looking like a villain.
A few people got up, ready to go home to fill their hungry bellies. Lifting the kitchen curtain and going out, they caught a glimpse of a huge 'turtle', climbing over the low wall, standing still, looking up, and the atmosphere was a little frozen...
"Huh?! I'm a mother! The middle-aged woman in the green jacket paused for a moment, thinking that it was a blind bear, and when she was sure that it was a living person, she was ready to sprinkle the anger of losing money on the person who came.
"Roar~tsk! Dude is so skilled, we 'black blind people' don't dare to climb over the walls of the flower house. The panda-eyed young man hugged his arms and looked abusive.
"Hey! I thought it was a blind bear! ”
"Beat him!"
The person who came climbed over the wall and stood still, looking at the people who suddenly rushed out, and the few people surrounding seemed to have a strange expression, and before the words of explanation could be spoken, they felt a muffled sound trembling in their ears, and then they were dizzy in front of them. He turned around slowly, looked to his side, and in the haze, he saw a figure wearing a red floral cotton jacket and the wooden stick in her hand that had not yet been put down, her body was weak and unconscious...
"This mallet is the work of... This head... This wood... This trick...! The middle-aged man in the Mediterranean was gesturing, dragging the woman in the green jacket and chattering as he walked, looking like he had nothing to do with himself.
This lethality is second only to He Dabang! It is said that the bricks are hidden weapons, but in fact, the sticks and hammers are, and sometimes they hide by their side.
A few people sighed and quickly dispersed, leaving Nalanhua alone to 'clean up the aftermath'.
"Hey~ This is, is it dead? I can't be knocked to death, right? Nalanhua blinked her big eyes, bent over the side of the kang, and muttered in a low voice while pulling the person who was knocked unconscious by her: "You were the one who climbed over the wall of my house first, then don't blame me for being black, and you don't go to Quantun to inquire..."
"Shut up!" A soft, cold voice sounded in Nalanhua's ears.
Her body was stiff, the hairs on her neck stood on end, and her skin was cold, so that she subconsciously reached out to pull, and as soon as her fingertips touched the object, she trembled and did not dare to move. Usually the tiger is chirping, but now he is very honest with his mouth tightly closed.
Nalanhua waited for a long time, and when she saw that there was no follow-up, her eyes rolled wildly, she turned around slowly, and her eyes swept around horizontally, but she didn't see anyone. She patted her chest to soothe herself, and before she could slap it twice, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a thin body lying on the ground.
"Ahh Oh my mother... This day, it's really..."Nalan Hua jumped up in fright like a lit monkey.
She closed her eyes, tried to calm her pounding heart, pointed to the ground and couldn't speak...
Nalanhua moved the person lying on the ground to the kang and covered the quilt. Seeing that the other party's face was pale and his body was trembling, he tried it with the back of his hand, and hurriedly went to get a towel to prepare for physical cooling.
Nalanhua helped her pull the long hair off her face, and she swore that it was the prettiest face she had ever seen, and she was sure that there was absolutely no one. She calmed down, put a cold towel on the other party's forehead, and went to prepare some ginger soup and fever medicine to boil to remove the cold.
Outside the wooden window, the silver platter was silently empty, and thick branches blocked its path. A few clouds of black on the treetops obscured some of the view below, seemingly damaging the beauty it was meant to show. Some bleak moon, echoing the gray of the ground, so that the pesky branches could make some way...
Nalanhua changed the towel for cooling down to this beautiful sister who was lying on the kang and didn't talk like that, repeating... She tried it with her hands, it was much better than at the beginning, and she was satisfied with the basin and ready to change the water...
"What did you do to him!"
"Bang dang!" The sound disturbed the birds perched on the trees, and they were frightened, and they struggled to spread their wings and hide, hoping to get out of this place as soon as possible...
The sudden fright caught Nalanhua off guard, and the falling enamel basin smashed on the concrete floor, making an unpleasant sound. The other party's cruel eyes and the scar on her face made her think of the wolf in the back mountain, and fear rose from the bottom of her heart. She didn't dare to speak, let alone move.
The man glanced at the man lying on the kang and asked:
"Is it still burning?"
Nalanhua shook her head, helpless.
'Well! Who did you provoke today? Didn't you win more than a dozen dollars playing mahjong, how did you attract these two mallets, and one is more scary than the other...'
"You hit me?" The man asked.
Nalanhua subconsciously shook her head, and nodded slowly...
"Anyone else?"
Nalanhua nodded quickly, shook her head slowly, and wanted to cry...
The man put away his knife and approached Nalanhua. Passing by her, he slowly sat on the kang, gently stroking the beautiful face, his eyes full of pity.
"Thank you!" The hoarse voice sounded abruptly again.
The tears of grievance finally caught the eye and slid down the beautiful face. Once, she fantasized countless times about changing this boring and boring life, and when such a 'surprise' came, she was deeply 'moved' and didn't dare to move, so she was at a loss.
This guy called 'Life' is very good at playing tricks on people, and so does the way he gives gifts. I never think about whether the gift box is a surprise or a fright, and the enthusiasm is unprecedented!
After a few days of getting along, Nalanhua knew their names, the cold scar-faced man was called Pepper, and the beautiful man was called Shuliang, it turned out that he was not her, she couldn't wait to run and shout!
Nalan Hua's gaze wandered, and she began to wonder, why did this damn god give birth to a man so good-looking, which made her feel trembling and inferior...
For the first time, she realized that there was a kind of 'heartbeat' thing in this world, and it appeared like that, suddenly filling the entire heart, and there was no longer any gap. That wonderful feeling is like a soul wandering out of the body, lingering and circling for a while, and then suddenly returning to the body, colliding with the arms, warblers and swallows...
Love is sometimes so unreasonable, it doesn't care what comes first and comes later, and will only overbearing push away all untimely feelings. When it came, it was silent and tearful; When it leaves, it is also silent and tearful...
When you can love, be more enthusiastic, be more unrestrained, enjoy yourself, and don't let the solidification of your thinking freeze yourself. When you can't love, be happy, after all, you have loved and owned, even if you don't have it, you won't be too regretful and sad.
If you have love, you will be happy and happy, so why force too much and worry too much. Originally, there were enough trivialities on the road of love, so that in the end, the two would come to the end of their relationship unconsciously. The end of love is endless darkness and loneliness.
A month later, Shuliang's body recovered, and to Pepper's surprise, he did not refuse Nalanhua's approach, this was the second time he did not take the initiative to refuse others.
Shu Liang often stared at her in a daze, Pepper didn't know what he was thinking, and Nalan Hua was often stared at by him. She has low self-esteem and is cool in the face of books.
Shuliang was rarely relaxed for a while, during which Pepper went out once, and they didn't know where he had gone or what he had done.
Shuliang didn't let him ask, and Dahua didn't dare to ask...
