However, after a short day of rest, the front line was busy again.

The seriously injured withdrew from the Demon Town, and batches of trucks carrying the corpses of demon beasts were transported to the interior of the human race under the escort of the soldiers.

One by one, the masters who came to support quietly retreated and moved to the other three passes.

Everything is in order.

But it seems that the situation of the next big war has been felt, and an invisible pressure is still spreading.

The soldiers have gradually stopped laughing, but have solemnly arranged their weapons, trying to improve their strength as much as possible before the war.

Yuan Qingshan always stood on the city wall, looking into the distance.

Only time, still in front of his cart, waiting for the next opportunity to push.

Chu Yu sat quietly in front of his drawing board, glancing at the position of time from time to time, and the brush continued to sketch on the drawing board, depicting a thin figure that was a little lonely.

The figure pushes a cart full of wounded people, and the wounded look panicked, causing the picture to be full of joy.

The only thing that affects the style of painting is the always serious, serious expression of time.

It's like... She was really doing this seriously, and she didn't feel the laughter of the thing itself at all.

"What a strange person."

At the end of the painting, Chu Yu gently put down the brush in his hand, looked at the content on the scroll, muttered to himself, and finally looked at the place of time again.

"Can you talk?"

"I see that you seem... Nothing to do for the time being. ”

Chu Yu hesitated for a moment, but still didn't hold back, and asked at the time.

Time sat on the cart and raised his head a little dazedly, glanced at Chu Yu's direction, and then looked at his cart, a little hesitant.

In the end, she silently pushed her car and walked into the formation, looking at Chu Yu with some doubts.

"Hmm..."

"Why are you... I never laugh. ”

"I've been looking at you for a long time, and you don't seem to have laughed all the time."

After Chu Yu carefully organized the wording, he asked in a soft voice.

Time still wonders: "Why are you laughing?" ”

Chu Yu was stunned for a moment: "Because we want to release the emotions in our hearts, we will cry when we are sad, laugh when we are happy, and shout loudly when we are depressed for a long time, these are all forms of venting for us." ”

Time's answer was completely unexpected by her, and it also made her full of puzzlement.

Time put the cart aside, sat on the armrest, and shook his head gently: "But if emotions are released by venting, people will see your state of mind, become a flaw, and eventually be broken by the enemy, and become the fuse of your own death." ”

"And I can control my emotions without having to vent."

"Happy, sad, this emotion affects the fight."

She said this with a serious face, without any joking.

Chu Yu looked at the face of Time, and was a little silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.

It was a long time before she spoke again: "I'm sorry, I don't know what happened to you, but I can tell me about myself. ”

"At that time, I was just eighteen years old, and I entered the Ink Academy..."

I don't know why, when Chu Yu looks at time, he always feels a kind of ... Empathy.

She is very curious about the past of time, and she also feels sorry for her present.

She even took the initiative to get up from her chair and sat on the other arm of the time cart, even if it was still stained with dried blood.

Two teenage girls...

Or more strictly speaking, it was a girl, and a girl with gray hair, just sitting on the cart, looking at the scenery outside the town demon pass, chatting softly.

Of course, most of the time Chu Yu is talking and time is listening.

Chu Yu talked a lot about her own experience, including her current situation, but she always had a smile on her face, a very quiet and sunny smile.

It's like always having hope for everything in the future, and she believes in the future no matter what the present is.

And the time is a little calm, with his head slightly bowed, and he rarely even looks at the sunset on the horizon.

Chu Yu naturally has a kind of affinity, obviously she looks noisy, constantly rambling, like a chatterbox, but time can't raise disgust for her.

Maybe...

She could feel Chu Yu's heart.

That heart without any distractions, pure, kind.

"So..."

"Even if you experience pain and weather, you must muster up the courage and shout to yourself... Come on! ”

"Our future is hope!"

"Would you like to be my friend?"

Chu Yu clenched his fists very tightly, waved them in mid-air, and finally asked seriously with a smile on his face.

"Friend..."

Time's body seemed to tremble slightly, his muscles tensed, and he assumed an instinctive defensive posture.

"I'll just take you by default!"

"From now on, I'll be your friend!"

Chu Yu tilted his head sideways, looked at the time, and said with a smile.

The setting sun shone on Chu Yu's side face, and the little gray hair on his forehead was blown by the wind, which was indescribably beautiful for a while.

Time raised his head and looked at Chu Yu, still silent.

I don't know if I agree or refuse.

"You're going to laugh!"

"You're actually pretty too!"

"People who love to laugh will be very young!"

Chu Yu spoke softly, retracted his gaze, raised his head, and looked at the sunset that had gradually set, his voice gradually became softer, with memories in his eyes.

"Laugh..."

What Chu Yu said came to his mind, and after thinking about it seriously, he still didn't make a laughing expression in the end.

Chu Yu didn't urge, and the two of them just sat on the cart full of blood, quietly watching the sunset until the night.
