Chapter 224: Sunset Red (I)

A month, a quarter, a year.

Year after year.

The little boy was already twelve years old, and he was starting to draw strips, and his hands and feet were growing.

He was scared to go up Mt. Zhong at first, especially in the first winter, when he had to walk through the snow all the way up the mountain, and then the great acid would carry him into the huge cavity and go to her cave with his paws.

But fortunately, when the spring flowers bloomed and the ice and snow melted, she asked him to accompany him near the mountain god's hut.

Every time they meet, Sour He will give him all kinds of messy fruits, but most of them will eat barbecue in winter.

I don't know where she got so many strange things, and every time he eats it, his body is warm.

It's just that so many times, he hasn't seen Zhongshan Mountain God once.

He didn't want him to do anything, usually just asking him to tell her about what was happening in the village.

After finishing speaking, Sour and inevitably sighed, leaving a sentence of "I must transform as soon as possible" and flew towards the snow-covered peaks in the distance.

Until the winter of another year came, he wore a thick cotton jacket and braved the wind and snow to go up the mountain. It had been a long time since he had encountered such a snowy day.

But this time he was greeted by the open door of the hut.

The familiar head poked out of the room and invited him in.

The cabin was empty, except for a flickering oil lamp, a bamboo chair, a low table, and a pot of cups on it. The bamboo chair still looked like the one that was usually placed outside the house.

He habitually stretched out his hand, just as sourly and habitually stretched out his head to rub against his palm. ζ‰‹ζœΊη«― δΈ€η§’θ¨˜δ½γ€Žβ†’m.\B\iq\u\g\\o\m』 provides you with wonderful \ novel reading.

"You've worked hard all these years." "My brother is showing signs of breaking his shell, possibly this winter, or next year or the following winter." ”

"Father will completely guard his younger brother during this time, and he will no longer be distracted by things on the mountain, and the eldest brother does not have the strength to help you drive away the wind and snow. So you don't have to go up the mountain in the future. ”

"You don't have to guard your brother, why don't I have to go up the mountain?"

This question blurted out, purely subconsciously, so fast that he didn't even have time to cover his mouth.

Sour and originally tilted his neck to listen to what he said, and then his head was full of straightness, and a smile gradually appeared in his two eyes, "Are you reluctant to me?" ”

Just like the day the boy was picked up, Sour and paced around him, and the fiery red tail feathers fell with her steps, "Yes, yes, worthy of the child I rescued." ”

"It was my father who gave the order, let's not cause trouble to the eldest brother. The fourth to seventh children were all grounded. I'm still slipping out. But she didn't look very sad, "That's good." You don't have to brave the snow or rain to go up the mountain anymore, and I can concentrate on retreat. ”

"Does the Divine Bird also need to cultivate?"

"I'm going to try to transform!" Raising his head proudly, "Father said that I am very talented, and it is even possible that the time will be shorter than that of my eldest brother." ”

Seeing that the boy's face was full of doubts, she opened her mouth to explain, her voice cheerful, "Didn't you see my eldest brother at that time, the man with horns on his head and young white hair, his body is a dragon." ”

"I'm my father's most beautiful child, and I'm sure I'll be the best-looking!" The acid and the head came to the boy, "When you grow up, will you marry me?" ”

The boy froze in place, unaware that the cold wind blew open the wooden door with snowflakes and poured into the house.

By the time he came to his senses, the big bird was long gone.

He walked out of the hut, and the outside world was white, and there was no distinction between heaven and earth.

That night, he had a dream, a dream he hadn't had in years.

It was also a snowy day, and there was no second color in the sky and earth except white. The snow piled up quickly and quickly, and his calves were dragging through the snow with every step he took.

He knew that he couldn't fall, it was too late to go down the mountain, he could only stubbornly move forward. I finally saw the legendary wooden house, but there was no light inside.

He fell directly to the bamboo chair.

When he opened his eyes again, he really felt like he was dead.

The cave that does not see the light of day, the strange man with horns on his head, the big bird that can talk and has three legs, and the black snake with long spikes all over his body.

He lay in a bird's nest made of dead branches and leaves, like a mouse being snapped back by an eagle.

Some of the branches hurt his back.

The boy gasped and woke up from his sleep. The room was warm, but he couldn't help but wrap himself in a ball.

The bird asked itself to marry her? What does that mean? Do you want to stay in that place forever?

The boy survived the winter in fear, even more nervous than the first winter when he had made a promise with Acid and Valley. Every day, he was afraid that there would be a knock on the door of the house, and that a girl he had never seen before was standing outside, saying that she had come to marry him.

As the spring sun falls on the ground, the snow melts little by little, converging into a trickle under the remnants of the snow shell, nourishing the green grass that has begun to sprout.

Don't say anything about girls, even the big bird with its fiery red tail feathers never appeared again.

Spring went to autumn, and it was the day of the new snow that fell in the year, and the boy wondered if he should go to the mountains to have a look, but his footsteps did not fall on the frozen lake.

Could it be that her brother was born, so she doesn't have time to take care of herself? The boy stood by the lake and looked at the mountain peaks in the distance, thinking that in the past few years, didn't the big bird just talk about being a younger brother?

The panic that had just sprouted in his heart was strangled to death. The corners of his eyes curled, and he turned and walked towards the village where smoke was rising, his steps getting faster and faster, and finally he ran wildly.

The habit of going up the mountain on the last day of the month after five years, after a year's buffer, the boy only spent another year forgetting about it.

It was only occasionally when he followed his friends to the snowy mountain that he remembered that he had been there before.

In the huge mountains are cavities inlaid with precious stones, which are bottomless down and the sun is not visible upwards.

But it was his own adventure, and he wouldn't tell anyone about it.

At this time, the boy was almost fifteen years old, and in the village, he was already a teenager who could stand alone. The baby fat that used to be has all faded, leaving behind an angular silhouette and handsome facial features.

Not only is his size able to crush his peers in the village, but even some of the older boys are inferior to him in height and physical fitness.

Pianpian young man, where the heart wants.

On a golden evening when the prairie and forests were all turned golden, there was a knock on the door of the boy's house.

A girl stood outside the house, wearing a red robe that reflected the sunset in the sky, and a belt tied around her waist was inlaid with multicolored stones.

Beside her, an old man stood.
