Chapter Eighty-Three: Memories

The sky was dark, and dark clouds rolled in from the horizon, plunging the whole town into a depressing dreary. The moment Lan Shimo looked up, he found that he was alone in a hazy mist, he looked around in confusion, he didn't know where he was, he only felt that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him viciously, as if he was going to eat himself alive. He jerked around, and the empty eyes staring at him behind him were not there. Slightly relieved, his left hand was subconsciously placed on his right wrist, the bare wrist made his heart suddenly lift, he rolled up his sleeves in disbelief, and the string of Buddhist beads on his white wrist that he regarded as a treasure was gone!

His heart fell to the bottom all at once, and he was gone, why was he gone, the thing that could separate him from that world was gone! Although a long time has passed, the sheltering ability of the Buddha bead has gradually decreased, and he can now slowly see the things of that world again, but the company of nearly ten years makes him feel that he can't lose it. Although he had forgotten the origin of the beads, he still remembered a voice telling him, "Don't be afraid, I've driven them all away." ”

Now that the beads are gone, he will be faced with the ugliest thing of that world. He was scared, scared! Lan Shimo's eyes gradually darkened, and his legs were so weak that he knelt on the ground, and he could no longer feel the sharp pain from the hard floor and his knees colliding. He hid his face with his hands, and a tear quietly fell from between his fingers......

"Yezi, Yezi......" Just when he felt lonely and helpless, a voice came from his ear calling the name he was about to forget, he looked for the sound and turned his head to look, and in his eyes blurred by tears was a girl of his age. The girl was wearing a loose and simple bright yellow sundress, and she appeared in front of him with a complicated expression on her face, her face was excited, and there was confusion and sadness in the excitement.

She slowly walked out of the white mist, from far to near, who is she? Why does a person who doesn't know know know have a familiar feeling? This feeling made him no longer afraid, even if there were thousands of eyes staring at him behind him, as long as she was there, he seemed to be able to get through.

"Who are you?" He couldn't help but ask, the girl's dark green gaze was very familiar, but he didn't have any image at all, her small melon seed face and overly fair skin pierced his heart.

"Yezi, don't you remember me?" The girl seemed a little disappointed, and her crystalline green eyes gradually dimmed, and the obvious sadness was so dazzling.

Lan Shimo just looked at her, trying to see something from her face, but when he saw her dim green pupils, he unconsciously stepped forward and wanted to say something, but the unfamiliar face made him say nothing after all.

Suppressed and silent for only a moment, the girl looked at Lan Shimo's stunned appearance and suddenly a bright smile appeared, this is the one she thinks is the most beautiful smile. She didn't have time, and if she didn't talk to him, they wouldn't ever have a chance to meet again.

She had never spoken to anyone else in her life but him, and no one else had ever been able to see her. She is a person who is not favored by God but is happy, because of him. Although he seems to have forgotten himself, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, he remembers.

"Yezi, I'm Amu." With a bright smile, she walked up to Lan Shimo step by step with the most colorful rainbow after the rain, and reached out to hold his hand as warm as when she was a child. These hands are so big and warm, they are no longer the child who only knows how to cry.

"Yezi, I know you remember me, it's just that it's been too long for you to seal up those painful and fearful memories." Amu stretched out his hand and wiped away the faint tears on Lan Shimo's face little by little. Her hands are as soft and cool as water, calming her whole body and mind.

"Green pupil Amu, Amu green pupil, green pupil Amu ......" Lan Shimo's mind gradually cleared up. Bright little golden flowers, hugging each other in clusters, and the breeze rustling through the leaves. Under the small tree was a little boy who looked exactly like himself waving to him. He ran over and hugged him excitedly, "Amu, Amu, it's good that you're still there if you haven't left!" ”

"Yezi, I will always be with you." The boy's voice in his ears suddenly became a girl's voice made him a little confused, he let go of his little hand, and looked fixedly at this white and thin little girl with two long braids with a pale yellow color band, her pale yellow skirt swaying in the wind, like a gorgeous acacia flower, his eyes opened in disbelief.

"You're a girl?" Little Lan Shi is stunned at the end, obviously a boy who is exactly the same as himself, can he do magic? He opened his small mouth wide in surprise, and asked with a very exaggerated look: "Why can you become like a fairy on TV?" ”

Amu thought this question was very interesting when he heard it, so he thought about it. It took a long time for her to pinch an acacia flower that fell from the tree and said seriously: "Because...... It's a secret! After saying that, Amu pulled her legs and ran, because she knew that Lan Shimo would definitely chase her if he reacted.

So a boy and a girl chased and fought under the golden acacia tree, and the cheerful laughter filled the whole yard, but the people passing by outside the courtyard could only hear Lan Shimo's stupid laughter, and saw him running in circles in the yard alone. Later, he was even seen talking and smiling at the air. What's even more unbelievable is that he actually divided the meal that his neighbor kindly gave him into two portions, as if there was another person beside him. The people around him said that he was crazy, and the children did not dare to play with him anymore, and the dogs would bark at him, but for some reason those dogs did not dare to approach. Later, he learned that it was because Amu had been protecting him not far behind him, so that those dogs did not dare to approach.

Then one day, the leaves of the acacia tree fell off one by one, and he thought it was just winter, until the branches also began to turn yellow and dry up. One day he woke up and couldn't find Amu, he was so anxious that he ran around the town, and a big black dog saw him running over and hurriedly chased after him. The barking of the dogs made him even more frightened, and the big black dog ran quickly, caught up with him in three steps and two steps, and bit his trouser leg and pulled him back. He was so anxious that he cried, the black dog stared at the round black eyes, the sharp teeth were white and frightening, and the throat made a penetrating low growl. This low roar instantly attracted several other big wolf dogs around, and he felt that he would definitely be torn apart by these terrible dogs, and he was terrified and cried even more when he thought that his whole body was bitten by the wolf dogs and his bloody bones were exposed.

"Amu, Amu! Where are you! He howled and cried, shouting Amu's name heartbreakingly, where did Amu go? Did she leave herself? Is it because you are too incompetent? Thinking of this, he held back his tears, saw a long wooden stick under his feet, quickly picked it up, and made a fierce expression to the several big wolf dogs in front of him, "Get out!" I don't care about you! I'm not afraid of you! Even though his whole body was shaking, not a single tear came out.

It was a rare brave time for him.

Although the little girl in the shade of the tree in the distance was very anxious, the smile on her face was so gratifying, Yezi, I am relieved that you can be brave. The little girl smiled and laughed, and her tears flowed down unconsciously, and she looked at the leaves for a while before raising her hand to wipe away her tears and running over with a smile.

"Yezi, I'm here!" As soon as the little girl's joyful voice sounded, several dogs whimpered and fled as if they had seen something terrible.

Hearing the little girl's voice, Lan Shimo threw down the stick in his hand and took her hand worriedly, "Amu, where have you been?" I'm so worried about you! Ye Zi pouted, her little face was scared and anxious, and the little girl couldn't help but feel her heartache, feeling her eyes hot and her nose sour. She smiled brightly, grabbed Yezi's hand and pulled him in the direction of home. Can't cry, her tears can't be seen by Yezi, she runs in front, Yezi follows behind, although she tried very hard to hold back her tears, but the tears still flowed down disobediently, she felt so uncomfortable that Ye Zi didn't want to leave him, but she had to go......

Later, Amu would disappear from time to time, from the first day or two, to the next month or two...... He slowly got used to the strange gaze of a person in front of everyone, used to supporting himself alone, and got used to her gradually fading out of her life......

It was a foggy winter day, and he remembered that it was Amu's birthday, and they had made an appointment that she would come back today. He took out the money he had saved from picking up waste and decided to buy a birthday cake for Amu, he guarded the cake at home from morning to dark, Amu still didn't come back, he was very anxious, after all, Amu is a girl, will she be in danger? Thinking of this, he looked for Amu everywhere, and then he got lost when he walked out of the town, obviously he often walked, but he felt extremely cold that day, and he always felt that something was following him. The more he walked, the more scared he became, the more he felt a thorn in his back, and he thought that he would go home quickly, maybe Amu had already gone home.
