Tong Xiaolai discovered: "There are not only trees here, but also watermelons!" ”

"What kind of melon is this, is there anything peculiar?" Tong Xiaolai asked the shopkeeper for advice.

The shopkeeper explained: "Guest officer, you might as well let me explain. ”

Tong Xiaolai couldn't wait to say: "Explain quickly!" ”

"Don't worry, let me tell you in detail. Our melon is not an ordinary melon, it's called a beauty melon! After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he was silent.

Tong Xiaolai waited, staring at him with wide eyes, and waited for a long time and didn't see anything else.

"And then?" Tong Xiaolai asked.

"And then it's gone, there's nothing wrong with this explanation!" After Xiao Er finished speaking, he was very satisfied with his explanation.

Tong Xiaolai complained: "What do you mean? I don't think I'm looking very careful! ”

"Well, it doesn't matter if it's beautiful or not, you can see that it's delicious. Anyway, let's go with a knife first. "Tong Xiaolai is trying to taste it.

Under the guidance of the shopkeeper, Tong Xiaolai couldn't wait to pick a ripe watermelon from the ground.

Tong Xiaolai had just picked the watermelon from the ground and put it on the ground, however, in a blink of an eye, the melon ran away on its own.

"Gurgling...... rolled fast on the flat ground.

Fortunately, this melon is not as difficult to catch as a chicken, Tong Xiaolai saw that it actually ran away, and hurriedly chased after it.

I saw that the melon was rolling fast like a race against him.

I managed to catch up with it and catch it, but as soon as I put it on the ground, it tried to run again.

Tong Xiaolai had no choice but to hold it tightly on the ground, so that it had nowhere to hide.

Seeing that Tong Xiaolai was so hard to cut a melon, the shopkeeper took the initiative to step forward and said, "Guest officer, you have worked hard, let me come!" ”

The shopkeeper took a long, sharp fruit knife, pressed the melon on the ground, halved it in half, and cut it thinly.

After the shopkeeper went down, the melon did not move, and the blood flowed from the place where the knife was cut.

The shopkeeper handed the knife to Tong Xiaolai and asked him to hold it, Tong Xiaolai was taken aback when he looked at the blood-stained knife, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly threw the knife away.

The shopkeeper was unhurried, along the edge of the knife, broke the watermelon in half, and said: "This is the beauty melon, and there is a beauty hidden in the melon." ”

Tong Xiaolai stepped forward to take a closer look, and sure enough, in the center of the watermelon, there was a pocket beauty hidden!

The shopkeeper took her out of the watermelon and put it on the palm of his hand.

The three of them came over curiously and came to see this pocket beauty.

However, Tong Xiaolai found that a little beauty, she was lying motionless on the hands of the shopkeeper. Tong Xiaolai poked her, and she stopped moving.

Tong Xiaolai wondered: "What's wrong with her?" Why doesn't it move? Is she okay? ”

Xiao Er said without changing his face: "She's dead." She had died since the first cut of the melon and the first drop of blood flowed. This is her fate, she will die at our hands after all. ”

Looking at the melon that was divided into two halves, its juice was still flowing from the edges, like blood, red, and strange to see.

When he heard that he was dead and had shed so much "blood", Tong Xiaolai turned pale with fright. "This, this, this...... What can I do about this?! I killed a watermelon, I killed a watermelon! What should I do, it won't come to me at night to pay for it, right?! ”

Xiao Er saw Tong Xiaolai so disturbed, and comforted: "This is the law of life, survival of the fittest, the winner is king, even in modern civilization today, we still can't escape the shackles of this law."

"From the moment we nurture this melon, it is destined to one day, just like our life, one day we will grow old, and this melon will also mature one day and die.

"We just produced a watermelon like a chicken, duck and fish, so don't be surprised, as long as you understand this, there is nothing to be afraid of. Our melon is very delicious, I wonder if the guest officer wants to taste it? ”

I didn't expect this shopkeeper to understand such a big truth, which really impressed Tong Xiaolai.

Tong Xiaolai dipped his index finger in the "blood" that flowed out of the melon, Xiao Er said that it was not blood, it was watermelon juice, but Tong Xiaolai looked like blood no matter how he looked at it, bright red and thick, but there was no smell of blood, and it smelled no different from ordinary watermelon juice.

Despite this, Tong Xiaolai still didn't want to eat it, he didn't want to be like a wild man who eats human flesh and drinks human blood, with blood in his mouth. He didn't want to be like that. Because he didn't know when the blood would come down from the corners of his mouth......

Tong Xiaolai waved his hand and said: "Let's go, let's go, don't look at it, don't you look at it, don't you just have a meal, don't you have to toss it like this?" ”

Tong Xiaolai and the three of them returned to the inn, and at this time the meal was ready, and the three of them finally had eaten.

He can't do a beautiful melon, it's still okay to eat a Mulan chicken, after all, it's a chicken, eat one more is also eat, and eat one less.

At this time, the sun has gradually set in the west, and the twilight of the setting sun tells people in golden colors that it is a beautiful sunset.

Sitting in the lobby, the afterglow of the sunset swayed the blood-red light in, as if sitting on the ground, eating and drinking with the three of them, the melancholy poignant beauty is not a joke, and they all have Zhong Nengmei's bleeding.

The three of them had another benefit, and they had dinner at sunset, the food was fragrant, the wine was beautiful, and the people were already intoxicated.

The empty belly was satisfied, and Tong Xiaolai settled the account with the almighty yuan. This meal was finally finished, although the process was a little unexpected, but overall, it was not bad, and I enjoyed eating it later.

The three of them couldn't help but be attracted by the atmosphere outside the inn and decided to go out for a walk and take a tour.

Outside the inn, Tong Xiaolai opened his palms and squinted, letting the sunset melt between his five fingers.

The arrival of the sunset announced the end of the day, Tong Xiaolai was always reluctant to let this fleeting beauty slip away from his fingers, after all, some things have passed, gone, maybe gone.

Tong Xiaolai held his palm. He wanted to hold on to the good things, he thought, so that maybe he could keep them forever......

The village is not large, and the three of them walked and chatted at the same time, and it took less than an hour to spare the village.

The three of them were in the village, playing wherever they went, occasionally looking at exotic flowers and plants, occasionally climbing wild trees, picking wild fruits, occasionally stepping on the mud, swinging, washing their feet......

Climb a small cliff behind the village, reach the highest point, sit on the edge of the cliff, bravely stretch your feet out, and float off the ground for a while, even if it is not afraid of any thrills.

Overlooking the land in the distance, looking at the fields in the distance, you can vaguely see the people who are working hard humming a little song, leading the old cow, and slowly returning to the sunset.

The three of them stood up in unison, stood on the edge of the cliff, and shouted at the sky, shouting out all the best, the worst, the most loved, the most hated, the most wanted to cry, the most wanted to laugh.

"Ahhhh

In the end, crying just because I was moved, and that's enough.

The three of them returned to the room, recalling the past few days, as if they had walked all the way for ten years.

Tong Xiaolai and the fat man slept on their heads as usual, while the old man sat quietly and rested alone.

Tong Xiaolai glanced at the old man and said to the fat man: "We have a guy here who won't get tired to guard, let's sleep with confidence." I'm tired to death, so I'll rest for a while. ”

The fat man asked, "Big brother, do you think we can really find that deserted building?" But we've all gone so far, why haven't we seen the shadow of that building? ”

Tong Xiaolai patted his head: "Oh, I forgot if you didn't say this, this day is too moist, I forgot why we came, oh, yes, yes, we are here to find a deserted building."

"But fatty, don't worry about it first, I have a hunch, we are all here, and this deserted building is definitely not far away. We'll ask someone tomorrow. Go to sleep, I don't know what will happen next, let's take care of my spirits first. ”

"Hmm." After the second fat answered, the two went to sleep.

Soon, it didn't take long for the tired two to stretch their legs, close their eyes and fall asleep.

"Zzz, Zzz......" The two slept soundly.

So, Tong Xiaolai fell asleep.

The next scene appeared in Tong Xiaolai's dream......

Tong Xiaolai opened his eyes and woke up again.

"I'll go, I'm awake again!"

Tong Xiaolai opened his eyes and looked around, this scene, this feeling, déjà vu.

Tong Xiaolai said to himself: "What's the matter? Why am I awake again? I don't want to come here yet, I just want to get some sleep! ”

"Alas~ I actually appeared by myself, what the hell is this?" Tong Xiaolai sighed and didn't want to care.

"I want to sleep, I want to sleep! Heh~" Tong Xiaolai rolled for a while, and finally lay on the ground weakly, with one leg and two hands, he was so tired that he didn't want to get up.

He was now in his dream, and if he had fallen asleep like this, the summoned dream would have disappeared automatically, and he would have returned to his normal sleep state.

Still, it seems that someone is coming.

A man in a mask.

He came.

The masked man found Tong Xiaolai lying down, he floated sideways, parallel up and down in the opposite direction to Tong Xiaolai, staring at Tong Xiaolai face to face at close range, and winked at him.

Tong Xiaolai felt that someone's breath was approaching on his face, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a strange face in front of him, and he was about to kiss it.

Tong Xiaolai was silent for three seconds, and shouted: "Ahhhh ”

"You're the one who has a mask, I have to wear this mask as a last resort." The mystery man stood up.

Tong Xiaolai touched his nervous heart and said: "Big brother, you will pay for the scared pee, diapers are very expensive!" ”

"Uh......" The mysterious man's expression was a little messy.

Tong Xiaolai got up and said bluntly: "I said how ugly you look, otherwise why don't you dare to show your true face?" I said, it can't be crooked somewhere, right? Don't worry, I haven't seen anyone, you can't scare me. ”

"Uh...... This ...... "The mystery man is silent."
