Chapter 168: Ten Days Like One Day
As usual, Ryder was bored with the magic crystal and talked to Pique, and when he learned from Piqué's mouth that he was going back to Peace Town, he finally lifted his spirits a little and waited for Zhu Tian at the door.
After waiting a little tired, he slowly squatted on the ground.
As if sensing something, Emma crouched down with Ryder, hugging her knees, and looked at the end of the alley.
"I'm sorry. Emma crouched down next to him and said to Ryder.
"Huh?" Ryder hesitated, "what are you doing with my apologies?"
"It's the first time we met," said Emma, after a pause, "I shouldn't have made that kind of joke, it should have hurt your feelings with your lover." ”
"Oh, you're talking about Dolly......" Ryder couldn't help but recall that ten days ago, Emma casually told Dolly about Hualou in order to get revenge on them...... At the time, he didn't realize that Emma did it on purpose, and when he thought about it later, he felt that Emma was a little too naughty...... But he really didn't have any hostility towards the little girl, so he didn't want to do it.
"My royal guard, you have lived in the princess's house for so many days, and I don't know where your house is?" said Emma thoughtfully.
"To the north of the town of Peace, there is a huge lumber yard full of all kinds of wood, and that's my house. My grandfather and I lived in a wooden building, the attic of which was very high, and standing on the top of my attic, we could see the grasslands in the north. Ryder ...... groaned for a while and said, "Zhu Tian lives in the wooden house next to him, and he is responsible for cutting wood every day. ”
Emma didn't notice the pause in his words, and said with wide eyes, "Why do you want to stand on the top of the attic, aren't you afraid of being tall? Anyway, I'm the most afraid of being tall...... But you said that Zhu Tian was chopping wood at your house, is it fun to chop wood? Will you invite me to your house to chop wood and play together?"
"Fun chopping wood? Just try it...... Don't think about going to my house, it's because of you that Dolly is angry with me," Ryder refused, shook his head and said, "It's good enough that I don't settle accounts with you." ”
"Hahaha, that's such a beautiful sister. Lori could see that Ryder was complaining about this, giggling a little awkwardly, her uncombed brown hair unkemptly draped over her shoulders, and sometimes she felt that her head was growing unusually fast. In the light of the setting sun, a warm feeling passed over my face, as if someone was gently holding my face. Recalling the scene in the alley of Xicheng last night, she could feel herself blushing, slowly bowed her head, and muttered, "If only I could be so beautiful." ”
How did Ryder know the shyness and self-humility hidden in a girl's heart, and said with a big grin: "You also know that you are ugly...... It's okay, it'll look good when you grow up. Ryder suddenly felt that saying this seemed to hurt Lori's self-esteem, so he comforted self-righteously: "Uh...... Come to think of it, Dolly has only grown up in the last two years, and she was also ...... when she was a child I've almost forgotten what she was like when she was a child, forgive me, O god of light!"
At first, Emma thought Ryder was joking, but looking at his serious expression, her face suddenly became unpleasant, and she snorted heavily, "You're ugly!" She immediately stood up, turned around and walked into the hospital.
Ryderton felt inexplicable, still leaning against the wall of the door, squatting, waiting for Zhu Tian. However, just as he was feeling a little squatting in his legs and trying to stand up, he suddenly felt a force in his back, causing him to lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground sideways.
Emma?
He looked back blankly, only to see a smaller figure running back to a room in the infirmary...... It's simply ...... Inexplicable!
Ryder touched his nose and sat down on the hard tiles, scratching his head in confusion.
Zhu Tian walked from the end of the street, the setting sun slanted his shadow for a long time, there was no pedestrian on the street except him, and the whole city seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep in advance.
This may be because of the sound of fighting in Xicheng before, or it may be because of the upcoming heavy rain.
The weather was overcast and the smell of rain was in the air.
Zhu Tian, who had returned from Xicheng, walked unhurriedly to Ryder's side, "Idiot, what are you doing sitting on the ground?" he stretched out his hand, meaning to pull him up.
Ryder squatted so numb that he couldn't stand up for a while, so he could only put his hand on his hand to borrow strength. Who knows, when he was halfway up, the strength in his hand suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly sat on the ground again.
"Hahahaha!" Zhu Tian walked into the medical hall with a grin, leaving a stunned Ryder sitting there.
You damn thing!
After a while, he realized that he had been tricked, and rushed into the hospital in anger, "Zhu Tian!" He rushed to Zhu Tian, grabbed his clothes from behind, and said, "You ...... Belch...... Pique?"
Pique?
Blue pupils, gentle gaze......
It's Pique! He's sure!
Ryder was slightly surprised, and then overjoyed. "I'm really worried about you, I've had enough of that damn guy!" he hugged Pique.
Well......
It had been a long time since he had controlled his body, and Pique's movements were a little rusty, and he tried to move one arm and hugged Ryder as well.
Feel the ambiguous atmosphere between the two men...... In the dark, Zhu Tian felt a chill......
"Ryder, let's go home. My injuries are almost healed. Peake said.
"Okay, let's go home!" Ryder couldn't hide his excitement in his eyes.
There is nothing to pack, two people come empty-handed, and when they leave, they are empty-handed.
Walking out of the medical hall, the shadows are slanted into the distance, and they will also go into the distance.
Suddenly, a delicate voice came from behind: "Hey......! Where are you going?"
When the two heard the sound, they turned around, only to see that seven or eight meters away, Emma was holding the wooden door of the medical hall with her hands, and half of her body was hidden behind the door. Ryder said to her, "Of course we will go home, please say goodbye to your grandfather on our behalf! I have repaired the door of your house, don't let people kick it again......"
Emma ignored him and looked at the other figure in silence, and at this moment, she suddenly felt so strange......
It's like someone you've never seen before...... It was a strange feeling, and she suddenly felt very depressed......
Peake didn't want to make eye contact with her, so he turned back abruptly and walked off into the distance.
But then she shouted from behind, "......Hey! You haven't paid for the medicine yet! My grandfather healed your leg, and you're gone!"
It was still Ryder who replied, "I just put fifty copper coins on the table, that should be enough to pay for the medicine!" he said, turning back and following Peake.
Emma looked at their backs and continued to shout, "Hey...... You...... You ......"
However, those two men never looked back...... She could only whisper, "You...... You haven't told me a joke this morning......" Her hand squeezed tightly at the wooden door, making two marks on it.
Every morning, Emma cooked a decoction in place of her grandfather, and then brought it to Zhu Tian and asked him to tell him a joke before she would give it to him......
Every night, Emma returned to her room, opened the universal canon, and took out a small piece of paper with a blue-hat man in the blue hat and stared blankly......
Ten days like a day, in the usually cold and lonely medical hall, she has become accustomed to his presence......
