Chapter 332: The Carriage in the Rain

It was a rainy night, cold and lonely, and most of the people had already returned to their beds in their homes, hiding under the covers and falling asleep. There were no people on the streets of the city, let alone the wilderness, and there was silence in the long dark night in the bleak wind and cold rain.

Only the sound of wind and rain, and the occasional rumbling thunder from the distant sky, added a little life to the world.

The night was a little bleak, but Xu Xueying was not too sad.

On the side of the long old road, where there was no shop in front of the village and behind the village, the carriage was parked in a secluded and sheltered place by the roadside, and the old horse had been untied from the wheel and tied under another tree, quietly sheltering from the wind and rain.

The rain was pouring down, beating on the carriages, ticking, faintly and quietly. It was dark in the carriage, and only when lightning suddenly lit up in the far northern sky, there was a faint light for a moment.

Xu Xueying lay quietly in the carriage, her body curled up slightly, and her body was covered with a small quilt, which Shen Shi bought in Tonghe City. The bedding was thin, but she felt very warm, she was a little nervous in the dark, even if it was late at night, she didn't feel sleepy, her eyes were wide open, looking at the figure sitting quietly in the other half of the carriage.

At her strong request, Shen Shi finally sat in the carriage to escape the night rain, and as for the fox, when the rain just fell, he didn't know where to go. But neither of them was too worried, and for all this time, the fox seemed to like to put aside his search for food, and every time he could run back on his own, never getting lost.

This ordinary carriage is not small, but if there are two people in it at the same time, and one person is lying down, it will seem slightly crowded. The rain outside the carriage kept falling, neither too big nor too small, and it hit the wall of the compartment outside, as if it had fallen on the bottom of the girl's heart.

She suddenly felt a sense of joy, a quiet and gentle atmosphere that she had never experienced before, and she tried to listen to the sound of the wind and rain, and then she heard his quiet breathing, and the sound of her own heartbeat.

There was a slight heat on her cheeks.

But there was darkness quietly surrounding her, covering everything, and the sound of the rain and wind outside was so gentle, as if there were suddenly only the two of them left in this world.

Tick-tock, drizzle falling, the breeze blowing the curtains over there, and a mischievous breeze peeked inside.

A palm stretched out and gently put the curtain that exposed a gap, so the car suddenly returned to quiet and warmth, and after a while, Shen Shi's voice rang out, and said:

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

Xu Xueying was startled, and quietly raised the thin quilt covering her body, as if she could subconsciously hide better in this way, and then after a while, she said softly: "I can't sleep." ”

Shen Shi sighed and didn't say anything more, at this time, in the northern sky, a particularly bright lightning suddenly appeared in the sky, like a torn night sky, and it seemed to fall directly into the mortal world, blazing and dazzling, and even reflected in the distant carriage.

The two of them looked over there at the same time, and the lightning at that moment could be said to be the most magnificent and brightest lightning they had ever seen in their lives, but perhaps the wonders of heaven and earth could not last, and the radiant lightning did not last long, and it soon dimmed.

The rumbling thunder, after this brilliant lightning disappeared, immediately came from the night sky, and the rain outside the car seemed to be heavier. A little farther away, there were a few muffled snorts of horses, which sounded as if the old horse tethered not far away was a little startled, but it soon fell silent.

Everything is calm again.

"What a bright bolt of lightning. ”

"Well, it's the first time I've seen it, too. Shen Shidao.

Xu Xueying was silent for a while, and said, "Brother Shen, I heard that you used to go out on adventures and travel alone, do you often sleep alone in the wild at night?"

"Well, quite a few times. Shen Shi smiled and said, "But most of the time in the past, I took Xiao Hei with me, the little black pig you saw before, so I can't be considered alone." There were many nights spent in the wilderness, and we used to find a big tree and climb it to sleep. ”

"Ah, why is that?" Xu Xueying was a little surprised, it was the first time she had heard this kind of thing, and she felt very curious.

"It's safe in the trees. Shen Shi stretched out his arm in the dark, gestured, and said, "Where Xiao Hei and I went, there were many monsters and monsters many times, and some fierce monsters even only came out at night, so the dark night was actually more dangerous than the day. However, it is a very convenient and effective way to hide in a tree to avoid many dangers. ”

"But ......" Xu Xueying tilted her head slightly in the quilt, thought for a while, and couldn't help but ask Shen Shidao with a smile, "But Brother Shen, there are so many branches on the tree, why do you lie down and sleep?"

"Sit and sleep. ”

Xu Xueying suddenly fell silent, and after a while, she asked softly again, "What about Xiao Hei?"

"Oh, huh...... They usually sleep on their stomachs. ”

"If you fall asleep like this, will you fall off?"

"I haven't fallen before, but that stupid pig fell many times at first. ”

"Ah...... Isn't Xiao Hei very painful and sad?"

"No, normally, it just rolls over on the ground and goes back to sleep. ”

"Hmm......"

※※※

The sound of the rain was quiet, dripping finely and densely, and the wind blew and rustled.

"Brother Shen. ”

"Huh?"

"I ...... Sometimes, I envy you. ”

"Why?"

"I think your life is very good, you can do whatever you want, you can go wherever you want, you can go wild, you can travel the world alone, and you can wander the world. ”

Shen Shi laughed in the dark, looked at the somewhat blurred cheek contours of the girl lying in the dark not too far from his knees, and smiled: "It's not as good as you think, it's just that it looks good." For example, it is also pitiful to sleep in the open air, and it is also dangerous to fight monsters and monsters, in fact, when I was a child, I was also very envious of the life of a child of a family like you. ”

"Hee-hee-hee......" Xu Xueying laughed in a low voice, there was a bit of joy and a slight heartbeat in her voice, and after a while, she asked softly,

"And do you still want to live like this now?"

"Why, why don't you want to!" Shen Shi put his hand on the back of his head, leaned back against the wall of the carriage, and said with a smile, "One day when I earn enough spirit crystals, I will go to live the same life as you!"

Xu Xueying snorted and laughed, hid in the quilt and covered her somewhat hot cheeks with her hands.

This rainy night was so gentle and beautiful, even in a distant and strange foreign land. For a moment, she thought to herself how nice it would be if the night never ended.

(Happy New Year, all my friends who know me and still look at my words!)
