The old man was the last leader of their small tribe.

The girl was his precious granddaughter, a year younger than the boy.

Of course the boy knew them, but it was the first time he had seen a girl in such a bright red robe, and she was not at all like the man who had herded the sheep and cattle with them.

The adults sat around talking, and the two children sat side by side.

The girl's face was illuminated by the flickering candle flame like a ripe fruit in late autumn, and her voice was soft and sweet.

Just when the girl bowed her head and the boy was silent, the adults had finished their deliberations.

Until he was wearing a grand red dress and standing on the high platform, the young man was still in a trance: Is he going to get married? TVmobile/

Not only the people of their tribe, but even the tribes who had made friends in the lower reaches of the valley also came.

The old chieftain's face glowed red with joy.

There was also an uncle with bad legs, leading a sheep and raising a glass to himself at the back of the crowd.

Suddenly, a voice came from the noisy crowd, "Sacred bird of the mountain god!" ”

The voice was not loud, but it clearly fell into the ears of the young man. He stared suddenly at the mountain with its golden skirt, its turquoise body trailing its bright red tail feathers, glittering in the sunlight.

Sue He saw the young man standing on the high platform at a glance, although he has not seen him get taller for a few years, and he has become good-looking.

With a long roar, as if calling her name, she landed directly on the high platform next to the boy, and the red smoke cleared, and a young girl grew out of it.

The smile is like a flower, and the two red lines are like the sunset falling from the sky. Her long hair looked black, with a blue glow as she walked.

Dressed in red, it was not the heavy robes of the tribe, but it flowed around her like a mist.

All the people looked at the high platform, and the original noise fell into silence, just because the goddess of the mountain god was so thrillingly beautiful.

"You're wearing the red dress today. Did you expect me to come? "The girl was half a point shorter than the boy. When she spoke, she put her hands behind her back, stood on tiptoe slightly and leaned in front of the young man, her eyes were like the rippling lake of the sunset, full of broken light, "I think you look good in red, and you are worthy of the person I fancy." ”

The boy suddenly panicked, and he remembered the sentence from that snowy day, "When you grow up, it's good to marry me."

Today he is dressed in red because it is his wedding.

"But he's forgotten your words."

A black shadow fell from the sky, and the black-clothed young man who walked out of it looked arrogant, standing behind the girl like a god, "Man, the most forgetful animal." A dog, a monkey, after so many years of feeding, can remember your kindness, but what about people? In the blink of an eye, you can forget. ”

"Third sister, this little friend of yours is not here today in a red dress to greet you, but because...... Today is his big day. ”

The day of the big wedding.

Only then did the girl notice the people dressed under the high platform, and the aroma of pure food and brew in the air.

There was also the girl who came from afar, also dressed in red, and the multicolored stones in her hair swayed with her steps.

The smile on his face disappeared little by little, like the glow of the sunset in the west.

The boy looked at her side and wanted to open his mouth, but found that he couldn't call her name at all, and his chest felt like a boulder was pressed.

"I remember you asked me, but I didn't say yes."

The girl looked at him, no longer smiling on her face, and no longer shining in her eyes.

The lake was silent, only the face of a young man dressed in costume was reflected, red light, and I didn't know whether it was reflected by the clothes, or nervous, or excited.

"Am I late?"

The words were soft, plain, but like a sharp thorn piercing his chest. Can he say she's late?

"You didn't send me a wedding post, so I didn't prepare a gift." The girl's cheerful voice broke the silence, "But your life is saved by me, and that is my gift to you." I wish you an early birth to a noble son and grow old together. ”

With that, she didn't seem willing to leave the boy a chance to speak, and turned around to leave.

"Third sister, you're a little too kind, aren't you?"

Along with the words of the black-clothed boy, it was a black blade.

The black blade disappeared into the red clothes, bringing confusion and panic to the two of them.

"Third sister!" The black blade turned into smoke and dissipated, and the black-clothed young man hurriedly caught the girl leaning forward, his voice was full of nervousness, "He's like this, are you still willing to protect him with your life?" ”

"Old Five, with your natal weapon, even we can't carry it, won't he die here alone?" She smiled and looked at the young man who was still standing there, "It's said that seeing blood at a wedding is a bad thing, I'm really sorry." ”

"What are you guys messing around with?"

A deep and powerful voice sounded from heaven and earth. The old man who appeared just saw at a glance that the wound on the acid and body was caused by the long snake, and with a cold snort, the wound that was still bleeding quickly healed, and even the hole in the red clothes disappeared without a trace.

How could candlesticks, who are well versed in the way of time, not know what happened in these few minutes?

"Old Five, go back to confinement immediately."

The young man in black opened his mouth to argue, but was immediately shut up by Candleshade's glare. He gave the young man in red a fierce look, rushed into the sky and turned into a black giant snake and disappeared into the night.

"Third child, you also go back to confinement."

The girl didn't struggle in the slightest, she obediently turned away, and didn't even give the boy another look.

"Sanjin-sama......"

Candle Yin looked at the hand that grabbed the hem of his clothes, the red was not drunk or the light of the lights, it was due to the young man's original clenched fist. He sighed, "You're not wrong. ”

"It's also my negligence." As he spoke, he brushed away the young man's hand, "The most suitable person to accompany someone through his life is still a human being after all." Don't look at her as small, in fact, she is more than 200 years old. ”

"She will have many more than 200 years old in the future, and even if you are ordered by her for so many rare fruits, you will not live to be 200 years old."

Candle Yin was very lazy and tired, and if it weren't for these two bad kids messing around outside, he might not even be willing to go down the mountain, let alone talk so much to a child.

So he didn't say anything more, and disappeared directly in front of the boy.

As he left, there was a sudden resumption of noise under the high platform, as if it was not the silence caused by the shock just now, but the time stopped.

The boy saw a red feather on the ground, which seemed to have a drop of water on it.
