Zhao Xiaoqian upgraded without any sense of pleasure, but except for hearing a crisp sound in his head, he didn't obviously feel that he had become stronger somewhere. Maybe it's because he's so preoccupied right now...
At this time, Zhao Xiaoqian did not know the specific time, but the moon hanging high in the sky and the silent streets let him know that it should be a certain time period in the middle of the night. This made Zhao Xiaoqian feel a little comforted, because he didn't have to deal with the crowd.
Because the map of Camp Gran was fully unlocked, Zhao Xiaoqian returned home without the slightest chance of a detour.
Then he stumbled to the door of the humble hut, full of tangles.
Escaping from what must be faced is something that only a cowardly fool would do.
Zhao Xiaoqian admonished himself in his heart, then exhaled a deep breath of turbidity, and mustered up the courage to reach out and knock on the door. To face the things that you will face.
Then there was a weak touch that made Zhao Xiaoqian stumble and almost fall to the ground.
The dilapidated wooden door was not locked at all, but opened with a creak at the slightest touch.
After Zhao Xiaoqian stood still, an unfamiliar anger suddenly surged in his heart.
"Damn! You guy! You said you should lock the door and stay at home until I come back! What do you want me to do if I am in danger! What do you want me to do if I am captured by the bad guys!" he blurted out a roar before he had time to think. The anger and sadness came so abruptly and violently that I cried before I could reflect it. The last image of Mom and Dad flashed in my mind. 'Promise me to take care of my brother...'
In the dark, Zhao Xiaoqian couldn't see everything clearly, but he seemed to hear a faint sob. A skinny silhouette trembling with his knees around came to mind...
Zhao Xiaoqian was stunned, because of this sudden strange anger and thoughts that did not belong to him.
A faint sense of loneliness grew in his heart, and he was very envious of this bond.
The corners of Zhao Xiaoqian's mouth rose unconsciously. Fortunately, now... It's mine.
Zhao Xiaoqian thought so, and actually began to look forward to it in his heart. He followed his memory to the small table by the window and lit the kerosene lamp hanging by the window.
The orange flames crackled and danced for a while, and then began to provide a steady source of light for the dark hut.
This is a very simple hut, except for a large bed made of wooden planks, the only furniture worth mentioning is the small wooden table in front of Zhao Xiaoqian.
Zhao Xiaoqian turned around, pulled up a smile that he thought was 'kind', and looked back at the position of the big bed.
The smile froze, for there was no familiar figure on the empty bed.
Instantly, a shudder, a great fear hit.
The unlocked wooden door, the strange atmosphere, and the auditory hallucinations when you first entered?
Is it a hellish start? Is it really a nightmare sadistic start that doesn't give people time to breathe? Is this the plot that wants me to turn black and become a demon king? Is it dead? brother... Haven't you met once and died?
For a moment, all kinds of crazy thoughts and thoughts were rushing around in his mind, Zhao Xiaoqian stared at the empty bed board, his eyes had lost focus, and his whole body was accompanied by a slight tremor and a fine cold sweat oozed out. He was searching, looking for a corpse that he didn't expect to find.
Zhao Xiaoqian approached the bed step by step like a walking corpse.
"Ahh
Zhao Xiaoqian froze in place, with a strange expression. He struggled to discern what the soft touch was under his feet...
Zhao Xiaoqian lowered his head and saw a child who fell to the ground, although the light was very dim, he still keenly found the dark red handwriting on the child's hand - the person who killed me was.... {Standard sentence for this ridiculous murder case} Zhao Xiaoqian noticed that the eyelashes of the little guy lying on the ground were trembling.
Zhao Xiaoqian squatted down expressionlessly, stretched out his index finger and stuck some sticky red stains into his mouth and tasted it. The sweet and sour taste, is it really pretending to be dead? But why...
Zhao Xiaoqian looked at himself, the little guy who already belonged to him, by the dim candlelight, expressionlessly.
The forehead is large, the eyebrows are thin, the eyelashes are long, and the eyelids are double, and although the eyes are tightly closed, you can see that they have large eyes. Probably because of the light, or because of malnutrition, his lips looked bloodless, his face was poor, and he had heavy dark circles.
Sure enough, there's no way to get a good night's sleep. Looking at the heavy dark circles under his eyes, Zhao Xiaoqian felt inexplicably distressed. I'm not a good brother. Zhao Xiaoqian felt that his heart was about to soften into a puddle of water.
Zhao Xiaoqian stretched out his hand and poked his big forehead, "Get up, what should I do if I get sick?"
The little one's slender eyebrows trembled in the dim candlelight, and he continued his extremely professional behavior of lying down like a bell.
Zhao Xiaoqian sighed slightly, gave up this childish behavior, he picked up the little guy from the ground and put it on the bed, and put it in a straight position, covering the thin blanket. In the process of picking him up, he visibly felt a tremble.
Scared?
I failed to shoulder the responsibilities of a gentle brother and take good care of my brother.
Zhao Xiaoqian felt that his eyes were a little astringent, and he was full of guilt for what he had never done at the moment. In the eyes of his younger brother, he is a terrible and stern brother image, which is really undeserved.
But if you're so scared, why do you do such a ridiculous thing as pretending to be dead?
Zhao Xiaoqian suddenly thought strangely.
Sure enough, it's a child, and a child will always do something that adults think is ridiculous. It's because I want to be cared for...
A gentle smile hung on the corner of Zhao Xiaoqian's mouth, and he made such a reasonable explanation in his heart.
Zhao Xiaoqian lay next to his younger brother, tilting his head sideways to observe this little guy who had completely belonged to him. He didn't notice that his smile was very, very bright at the moment. Unconsciously, he has fully accepted the absurd premise that he has a younger brother, and is completely kind.
"You look weird today. At this time, the little guy who had been trembling suddenly turned sideways and looked at Zhao Xiaoqian with burning eyes. A questioning tone.
Zhao Xiaoqian was stunned, and to his surprise, he didn't feel the slightest nervousness. It's as if he's really just an older brother... He smiled incredibly naturally: "Why do you feel like that? Is it because I didn't beat you?"
"....." The little guy was silent for a moment, as if acquiescing to this statement. Then it seemed that he felt that he was so cheap, so he turned around again as if he was angry, leaving Zhao Xiaoqian with a stubborn back of his head.
"Hah.." Zhao Xiaoqian couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand and rubbed his little head. "The elder brother succeeded, defeated the goblin, and was recognized by the uncle. ”
"Really? That's a big congratulations. The little guy pushed away Zhao Xiaoqian's hand, shrank into the corner of the wall, and said so perfunctory without sincerity.
"Hey, hey, what's going on with that tone. My brother has obtained the qualifications to become a warrior, shouldn't you, as a younger brother, smile happily with the honorable?" Zhao Xiaoqian turned the little guy over and faced him toughly, and asked angrily.
"Let it go!" The little guy tried hard to break away from Zhao Xiaoqian's hand, and said angrily: "Why am I happy, why am I happy because of what happened to you!"
Zhao Xiaoqian was stunned. This time I was really stunned. My mind went blank, and then my blank mind began to slowly breed panic.
Are you getting carried away? Are you a little carried away? I don't understand at all, why do you want to be so burdened?
"Why? because... Because I'm your brother. Because you're my brother. Zhao Xiaoqian asked blankly. "Why are you angry?"
Zhao Xiaoqian subconsciously said weakly, and he regretted it after finishing speaking. He couldn't see his own expression, but he guessed that he must be inferior to his current appearance.
"Idiot!" the little fellow did not reply, but cursed, and then shrank in the corner.
Zhao Xiaoqian couldn't accept the status quo at all, obviously I should be the image of a stern brother! Why did such an absurd reversal suddenly happen? Shouldn't my brother be full of complex feelings of fear and dependence on me? What is the matter with this unbridled and arrogant attitude? What happened during this period I don't know what happened?
Zhao Xiaoqian swallowed his saliva, carefully pushed the little guy's shoulder, and mustered up the courage to ask: "Carl, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?
"I warn you!" The little guy only tilted his head slightly, allowing Zhao Xiaoqian to see one of his eyes, which was round and bloodshot. "Don't touch me!"
Zhao Xiaoqian didn't even notice that under this warning, he couldn't help but shrink into a humble position next to the bed that would completely fall down if he was a little bit.
So, so .... So what the hell is going on? This kind of preface doesn't match the rhetoric and the afterword, which bastard wrote it!
Zhao Xiaoqian screamed in his heart.
My brother, my dreams!!, are they dead and shattered?!!!
