Chapter 6: Tears
The next day, everyone got up early to freshen up and have a simple breakfast before coming to the warehouse. With Tony's help already loaded, Nabot led the group to count for a moment and prepare to return without missing a beat. "I said old friend, every time you are in such a hurry, you don't have time to entertain you properly. Tony stopped Nabote and said, "We've known each other for a few years, and we haven't sat down for a drink or two, and our friendship is no longer something that money can measure." "It's a privilege to have a businessman value our friendship more than money. Nabot excused himself, "There is still half a month to go before the festival, and if you don't rush back, I'm afraid it will be too late." "That would be a shame. Tony said, "Then next time, we have to stay one more day anyway, and we won't get drunk." Nabot said yes and waved goodbye to Tony and led the group home.
After a few days of trekking, everyone finally returned to their familiar place. Merlin led some of the villagers to the entrance of the village to greet everyone.
Mira was also relieved to see that she was safe. When the carriage approached, Merlin said to Nabot and the others, "Thank you for the safe return of the sea for sheltering you." It's really hard work, so I'll leave the rest to the others, so let's have a good rest today. Nabot and the others did not refuse, and left after a general explanation, everyone had been away for many days, and they couldn't wait to enjoy hot food at home.
When everyone left, "Mira, if someone hadn't told me, I'd have died in a hurry." Merlin reprimanded: "It's not that Grandpa won't promise you, if Mira makes another mistake, let me face your parents with something." Mira burst into tears and choked up, "No, my parents must still be alive, it's just that they are lost, and sooner or later they will come back, they will definitely come back!" Mira ran away crying.
"Grandpa the village chief, I should have left Mira behind. Osius said reproachfully. Merlin shook his head, touched Oshous's head and said, "It's not your fault that the child is. If you want to blame me, I shouldn't have lied to her that she was lost, I thought she would understand when she grew up, alas!" "Don't blame yourself, old man, maybe Mira's parents will come back one day." Gino patted Merlin on the shoulder and said, "Let's go to the square too, if we go late, others will rob all the good wine." Gino trotted away, not showing the slightest sign of the gray-haired old man.
"Tell me about you, have you encountered anything interesting?" Merlin said as he looked at Osius kindly. "Of course, of course, the food in town was so delicious, and the cakes, even Mira loved it. Oshous swept away the unhappiness just now and said, "I have never seen so many people, and I can't count them." Oshous gestured his hands and tried to express himself, and then said, "But I don't like them at all, I feel that they are too bad to compare with the people in the village. "Hahaha!" Merlin laughed a few times and said, "Son, never forget your kindness, you will understand in the future." Oshous muttered, "Again, say something I don't understand." Merlin touched Osius's head and stopped talking.
All afternoon, the villagers were distributing supplies, but there was one person who stood out, Gino, holding three large jars in each hand and knowing whether he could keep his mouth shut or not, and Oshous once again doubted whether the old man was real or not.
The night crept in, and everyone gathered around the table to enjoy the aftermath of the busy day, accompanied by their families, with the exception of Osho. "I don't know how Miel is doing, Miss Mira is happy!" said Osius, lying on the lawn outside the house, looking up at the stars alone.
"Hey, why are you lying here alone. Mira sat next to Oshous. Hearing the familiar voice, Oshous immediately got up and sat upright, and said, "This, that one is so late, what does Miss Mira command?" Looking at the uncomfortable Oshous, Mira chuckled and said, "Thank you, Oshos." If it weren't for your grandfather, he would have been in a hurry. Oshous knew that the informant had been revealed, and tried to quibble: "I don't know what Miss Mira is talking about, it's not me who is sure to be the informant, ha, ha, ha." Mira didn't ask any more questions, took out a piece of cake from the basket and handed it to Oshous, saying, "Taste it, how it tastes." "Miss Mira's cake must be delicious. Oshous took a bite of it, only to hear a "click", which is a cake, it is almost harder than a stone, Oshous covered his mouth and shouted. "Hee-hee, this is a punishment for your whistleblowing. After speaking, he took out another piece of cake from the basket and said, "This time it is a thank you for it." Osius took it and looked at it carefully, and pressed it with his hand, after all, his tooth still hurts. After making sure there was no problem, he put it in his mouth, and said, "It's so delicious, countless times better than the ones in the city." ”
Mila ignored Oshous's praise as if to say to herself, "Will they find their way home?" Oseus put down his plate when he heard this, moved his body and sat down in front of Mira, and said: "Mira's thoughts will definitely reach them, and they will follow Mira's guidance home, and they will." "Even if they don't feel Mira's thoughts, I'll find them out and tell them that Mira has made a delicious cake waiting for them to come home." Oshous continued.
Mira didn't seem to expect him to say such a thing, it was completely different from what she remembered, and the naughty ghost on weekdays would have such a side. His eyes moistened, and he said, "Thank you, Oshous, I don't know what to say. Mira wiped her tears. Oshous continued to comfort Mira and said: "Mira is such a well-behaved and good child, no parent will leave it behind, but it's not like me, I guess they are snickering somewhere." "I'm sorry, Osius, for making you sad. Mira looked at the depressed Osius and said, "Oshos's parents must have also been lost, and they will be reunited one day." ”
In fact, Oshous didn't have this concept of his parents since he was a child, every time he thought of them, he didn't know what kind of mood to look at them, loneliness, anger, longing, even he couldn't say it clearly, if he could meet them, he must question them well. "It's nothing, I'm used to it anyway, people here don't treat me as an outsider, and they have never treated me badly, even if I don't have parents, I'm very satisfied. Oseus said disapprerovingly. "Don't say that, they must have some reason for doing this, Oshous's parents must be very anxious right now. Mira said.
"Alright, alright, don't talk about these sad things, I can't help it when Miss Mira starts crying. Oshous said as he picked up his plate and ate the cake. Mira looked at him quietly like this, and at this time, Oshous was less restless than usual, and actually laughed. "Miss Mira, do I have cream on my face?" said Oshous, rubbing it on his face, this time really covering his face. Oshous also seemed to feel it, you look at me, I see you laugh in unison.
In this way, the two of them didn't know how long they had been laughing, and there was a little coolness in the breeze, and it was already deep. Mira got up and picked up the basket and said, "It's late, I should go back, and you should rest early." See you tomorrow. Osius also got up and waved his hand, saying, "Good night, Miss Mira, see you tomorrow." ”
Just as the two finished saying goodbye, a shrill voice sounded again: "The conversation of the little couple is finally over, and they are almost asleep." "Who!" the two looked around. "I'm here, two idiots. The voice remembered again. "It's you! Oshous suddenly realized. "Then it's time for me to spend time with my two young couples. Chris said to himself, completely ignoring the red-faced Mira next to him. "You, you, you, nonsense, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible. Mira argued. "That's right, whoever can take a fancy to this fool must be a fool too, at least not Miss Mira. Mira didn't plan to continue the discussion on the topic, and said, "Is there something urgent about this late hour?"
Chris remembered his purpose, clapped his hands and said, "I almost got infected by this idiot." "Do you remember the last appointment? You said you would be my guide, but don't say you forgot." Chris continued. "The festival is just a few days away, and the village will be very lively. Mira said. "Not this one. Chris jumped up: "I found a treasure just outside your village by rumor, and I know the general direction, so I asked you to be your guide." You should be fortunate to have ventured with the greatest explorers, whose name will be passed down among the adventurers. ”
"It's no problem to show you the way. Oshous yawned and said, "Why don't you talk about it tomorrow, you see it's so late." "If you finish sooner, we'll have a lot of time to deliberate, fool. Chris corrected, and it didn't seem to be too early, and then said, "Okay, that's it, let's gather early tomorrow morning, and we'll go on an expedition together." ”
In this way, Oshous sent Mira home, threatening to protect Mira from those strange creatures, but Mira had to give up. When Oshous came home, he saw Chris lying on the bed and sleeping, and without hesitation, he threw him to the ground and lay on the bed by himself.
What a day tomorrow will be?
