159. Yao and Rogers' Old Days
Although he didn't have a partner yet, when asked by an elder, Rogers was red to the root of his ears for the first time in his life.
The elf girls hiding in the distance were giggling and laughing, and one of the unusually beautiful girls had even blushing cheeks, because this clan sacrifice was for her blind date at all.
Because it is a sacrifice in the tribe, it is necessary to marry someone in adulthood, and then take your partner to participate in the grand event of the royal city, which is the tradition of the elf clan, and the whole tribe was worried before, because the young male elves of the right age are not suitable, so it has been delayed until now.
Just as they were about to miss the once-in-a-decade event, Rogers appeared, young, strong, gentle, and looking a rare perfection, as if he were the giver.
Sure enough, just as the elder asked him if he had a partner, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the forest friend told Yao that the man in front of him was true and that he had no partner.
Yao has a peculiar empowerment, she can communicate with any animal and plant in nature, and the ability of some plants is to spy on people's hearts, which is also a means for the wood elf tribe to protect the clan.
For so many years, the tribe has been at peace, and it all depends on Yao's special endowment, according to the patriarch's law, Yao has a special talent to become a high priest.
……
Rogers didn't know that he would be the protagonist tonight, and he was playing with a group of friends, and the new stories were being told from his mouth, and the children were making a lot of noise.
The elven elder stood in the distance and stood with the elven girl Yao, whispering to her, "How is it?" This man is good, right? ”
"Grandpa, huh." The girl glanced at Rogers shyly, and then curiously told the elven elder, "Forest companion, he didn't spend it from the human realm, but really came from the sea like him. ”
"Oh? Is the investigation clear? The elf elder was stunned, he didn't expect the girl's speed to be so fast. Then he joked to Yao: "It seems that you also think this kid is good, right?" ”
"Grandpa, is it really appropriate to be just human? After all, our lifespan ......" Yao looked at Rogers with some distress, the animal companions who quietly approached Rogers today were very satisfied with him, and Rogers had a very kind aura on his body, which made the animals very satisfied.
And Yao herself is also very curious about this man, and some of her actions are observed by her.
The reason why he was able to investigate so quickly was because Rogers was too high-profile before he arrived at the elf tribe, and it was difficult to keep the forest partners from paying attention.
It's just that where Rogers came from is still a question, after all, the sea is from the sea, it is true, but is he really living in the sea?
Yao didn't believe it, but the main purpose now was to test him first, and after he passed the test, Yao was slowly planning.
……
The blazing fire shone on the pure smiling faces, and Rogers blended into them, dancing with them in unknown dances, humming unknown songs, and holding hands to witness friendship under the stars.
Rogers hadn't been so happy for a long, long time, and his heart had been silent for many years since Carter's death, and Carter's death had left him looking for a true love, to dance with the girl, and at her grave, which was Carter's last wish and the regret of her life.
Rogers had bitterly blamed herself at her grave and regretted that she had missed out on true love.
Looking at everything beautiful here, unconsciously, tears flowed down uncontrollably, and suddenly, a breeze mixed with fragrance floated in, and the crisp voice was soft: "Why are you sad?" Think of an unhappy past? ”
Rogers wiped his eyes and smiled gently, "Well, you know what? I missed an appointment, and when I came back to her, it became the regret of my life. ”
"Regrets?" Yao looked at him, and suddenly felt that the man in front of him seemed to have endless stories, and seemed to feel that he was unusually reliable, and said in a low voice with a red face: "I don't know who she is, but I think, you love her very much, right?" ”
Rogers nodded and sighed: "Yes, I love her very much, if there was no war back then, I think she and I would have been married and have children, but unfortunately, fate played tricks on us, and when we got together again, it became a regret for Pets." ”
Yao's heart trembled a little when she heard this, and her voice was a little hoarse: "You still love her, right?" ”
Rogers was stunned for a moment, as if he felt the girl's emotions, so he said gently: "The past is smoke, and she and I still have no result after all." ”
Yao was stunned and asked curiously, "Can you have a love story with me?" ”
"Want to hear it?" Rogers blinked mischievously, and at this time his heart was much sadder.
"Uh-huh." Yao held her delicate chin in her hand, and looked at Rogers without blinking, Rogers was touched by the cute appearance of the girl, twisted his head in embarrassment, and began to slowly tell his previous story.
The story is long, long, and Rogers' voice is sometimes low, sometimes excited, sometimes gentle, sometimes emotional.
His story is like a book, telling about the cruelty of war and what kind of person he once was.
Although the details of the war are not described in the story, dozens of countries, hundreds of millions of cruel wars have opened their eyes, and Rogers' identity is self-evident, a war hero.
But at the end of the way, Rogers smiled bitterly: "What a hero is not a hero, I would rather live an ordinary life with her than let that hypocritical country cheer for me, I would rather be frozen in eternity than see the sun again, my country, which is burdened with justice, has become the darkness that I hate, so I left there, and without them knowing, a veteran may not be long before they forget it again." ”
Yao's eyes twinkled with big stars, she never expected that the strange man she was about to confess tonight was Ruci, and her forest friends and her heart were telling her that Rogers's was true.
The future that he has been waiting for for so long is actually a hero, and the elf elder is even more excited, although he doesn't know what kind of country Lao Mei is, but he is a hero of a country, although he left that country because of his philosophy, but his identity is unquestionable.
Hero worship is not only the exclusive domain of the earth, but also the elves of other worlds are more concerned.
Looking at the excited group of elves, Rogers hurriedly explained: "I'm not a hero anymore, really, I'm just an ordinary person now, oops, don't, don't ......"
The children pounced on Rogers again and got into a fight with Rogers, making Rogers cry and laugh.
