Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Road of the Sword God Forty Winters, the Wind of Hope!

readx;? Winter is the end of the year, full of cold and sleep, but it is also the alternation of the coming year, in this dead silence, there is still a hope for the coming year, like a flame called "hope", burning weakly but firmly!

If it weren't for the deliberate recollection, Yasuo wouldn't want to touch that memory at all, and it wasn't until he touched that memory that Yasuo remembered that he hated winter......

What will the winter winds look like?

Watching the surrounding scenery gradually fade towards white, Yasuo couldn't help but have such a thought in his mind, after the changes of the previous three seasons, he was still very curious about this last season. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Woo~!"

Before the world in front of him changed, Yasuo's ears were already filled with a feeling of emptiness and interference, as if its appearance itself was a meaningless thing, which made Yasuo, who had been with the wind all year round, feel very uncomfortable!

"Ding!"

In the sound that was so faint that it was almost impossible to hear, a crystal white snowflake fell on Yasuo's face, and the coolness almost stimulated Yasuo's heart, making him shiver even though he was no longer an ordinary person!

Looking up, the sky was a thick gray color, like a pile of black ink that had been splashed out wantonly, but a little bit of crystal color was born from it, falling with the wind, covering the whole earth with a layer of silver-white coat.

Is this a masterpiece of nature?

Yasuo sighed secretly, his gaze slowly turned to the front, when he saw the cold wind blowing through the bare trees, blowing down the layers of snow on it, Yasuo was stunned! His body instantly became stiff, his face was dull, his pupils were extremely constricted, and his mouth was even more shocked that it was difficult to close......

Of course, he was not frozen by the cold, nor was he frightened by the snow that blew down from the tree, everything was just because of the figure under the tree!

"Grandpa, grandpa, I want a Christmas tree, I want a Christmas tree!"

In the dilapidated hut, there is a dilapidated fire still burning vigorously, and an elderly couple dressed in frugal clothes are sitting around the fire with a little boy in half-new clothes. At this moment, it is dinner time, while the elderly couple is still eating rough food, the little boy who has already finished eating one step ahead is pestering the wrinkled old man next to him, coquettishly begging for the Christmas tree prepared for tomorrow's holiday.

After all, the little boy was still young, and he only heard people mention Christmas trees all the time when he was out playing during the day, which could not help but arouse his curiosity at a young age. When he saw the Christmas tree in the street shop, which was full of beautiful lamps and many beautiful items, the little boy's eyes instantly sparkled brightly.

If I had a Christmas tree, it would be full of the gifts I wanted!

With this in mind, the little boy jumped and ran home, and then, in the evening, there was the present scene......

The old man smiled bitterly when he was entangled, and after shaking his head helplessly, he glanced at the old woman next to him as if asking, and many years of sharing weal and woe had cultivated a special and indescribable induction, so that the old couple almost didn't need to speak, and understood what each other wanted to express from each other's eyes. The old man nodded secretly, then put down the bowl with a missing mouth in his hand, and smiled at the little boy: "Okay, okay, Xiaomo is good, eat some more, and grandpa will conjure a Christmas tree for you later!"

"Hey, really?" the little boy's eyes lit up, and he stopped shaking the old man's clothes.

"Hehe, of course!" said the old man grinning and touching the little boy's head lovingly.

"Ahh

"You little one!" the old man shook his head helplessly again, the little boy was only their adopted son, and he always called them casually, but every time he was happy, he would call them all the names he had called......

The night is getting deeper, and they can already see the colorful fireworks rising in the vast area at the edge of the city, accompanied by a scream that soars into the sky, and the fireworks bloom in the sky against the cold wind! The little boy maintained a very comfortable posture and curled up in the arms of the old woman, looking at the fireworks outside the window with envy, "Na, na, Mom! When will Dad come back?"

The old woman smiled kindly and touched the boy's face gently, "Xiaomo, your father will be back soon, if you are in a hurry, you can sleep for a while, so that when your father comes back, you can see the surprise." ā€

The little boy was moved to hear this, but he was a little reluctant to see the fireworks outside, and after hesitating for a while, he looked up at the old woman and said, "Then when Dad comes back, Mom must wake me up!"

"Uh-huh, definitely!"

"No! I don't worry, let's pull the hook?"

The old woman was amused by the little boy, gently scraped the boy's nose, nodded and said, "Okay, pull the hook, pull the hook......"

In the middle of the night, the calm outside the window had already returned, and since the old woman was not in a country that was the mainstream Christmas after all, the noise outside was at most later than usual. Now, all that remained was the sound of the cold wind blowing through the windows, and the little boy had long since been unable to stay up for the invasion of the night, and entered a sweet dream, his eyes narrowed into a small crescent, and a drop of crystal saliva was dripping from the corner of his mouth.

Why haven't you come back yet?

The old woman didn't fall asleep, but looked out a little anxiously, but the snow was flying outside, there was no moon and no stars, and there was a dark scene everywhere, and there was no shadow to be seen at all!

The old woman knew where the old man was going, and they were already on the edge of the city, to be precise, on the edge of the town outside the city. Because it is far away from the bustling area, there are many trees outside the town, and there are some pines and cypresses that can be used as Christmas trees, but they are a little more remote. But even so, at a normal rate, the old man should have returned! But it was early in the morning, and the shadow of the old man had not yet appeared!

Is it difficult, is it ...... Is there something going on?

The old woman thought of a terrible possibility, and her heart "chuckled" suddenly, and then a feeling of uneasiness appeared in her heart. She remembered that near the pine and cypress, there was a hillside dozens of meters high......

"Whoa!

The old window was still ringing, and the old woman was getting more and more anxious, and if it weren't for the boy who was still in her arms, she would not have been able to stay.

"Boom!

Just when the old woman was suffering, a strange sound suddenly came from outside the door, "Who?!, wife, is it you?"

"Yes, it's my ......"

The old man's voice sounded very weak, but the old woman's heart was inexplicably much more relaxed, she gently put the boy in her arms on the bed, and then hurriedly put on a coat and opened the door. "Woo~!" At that moment, the cold wind outside the door blew into the house wantonly, turning in the house very casually, blowing a gloom in the fire, and also blowing the little boy in the quilt is shivering, "Woo, Mom...... Grandma, I'm ...... cold" The little boy called softly in a daze, but no one responded, and he couldn't help but open his eyes slightly and look out the door.

"Wife, why did you come back so late? Do you want to worry about me? You old fellow...... Woo~!" The old woman looked at the old man a little embarrassed, but finally there was nothing wrong, and while her mood was relieved, her tears could no longer be stopped.

The old man stretched out his dry palm and gently wiped away the tears on the old woman's face, and comforted softly: "Shh~ Don't cry, I am reluctant to leave you behind, old man! Look, I'm not back? Don't wake up the child!"

"Hmph!" the old woman snorted in annoyance, but did not continue to cry, and then asked in a puzzled low voice, "How did you get to this point?"

The old man listened to the old woman's words, smiled mysteriously, and then took out a series of small red-green lamps from the bag behind him, as well as a few gift boxes with sticky marks, "What do you see this?"

"Y-You're going to the city?"

The old man scratched his head and smirked: "Xiaomo rarely asks us for a gift, as a father, I always have to give my child a little more surprise!"

"Hmph, next time you do this, you must tell me!"

"I thought you understood, aren't we old husbands and wives?"

ā€œ......ā€

The little boy listened to the whispered conversation outside, only to feel that his eyes were getting more and more confused, and there seemed to be a heavy feeling in his heart, which made it difficult for him to breathe.

I—I'm so ignorant!

At that moment, he felt like he had grown up......

"Okay, okay! It's very cold outside, let's not be afraid of old bones, don't freeze the child!" After the two of them had spoken a few words, the old man hurriedly urged the old woman to hurry up and enter the house. The old woman remembered that the fire in the house was about to go out, so she nodded quickly and walked back into the house......

When the little boy heard them entering the house, he quickly wiped his eyes and turned his head, pretending to continue sleeping.

"Squeak~!"

The door was closed, and the howling wind was helplessly blocked out, but they still refused to give up and kept blowing the doors and windows, making them make a "bang" sound.

"The child is asleep, so I'll show it to the child tomorrow, right?"

"Hmm!"

The next day, the old man fell ill because of his frailty, and from that day on, the old man's physical condition became worse and worse!

......

Is the winter wind the dashing of hope?

Yasuo's mind slowly returned, he looked at the old figure under the tree, and called softly, "Daddy......"

"Buzz~!"

In the middle of the whirlwind, the heavens and the earth return to white. In the blink of an eye, the whiteness gradually faded again, and in Yasuo's eyes blurred by tears, there was only a very complicated pale......
