A touch of happiness

Chapter 8

Slip down the tree.

"Ah, really?" The red-haired boy smirked.

"Daina, Er, you are here." Xiu smiled and shook the cup at them. "Would you like to come up for a cup of tea and some snacks?"

"Oh, did you make cookies? This is really good." Hearing this, the red-haired Dana climbed up without hesitation.

"You idiot, didn't you agree to send him to the diplomatic mission?" The brown-haired boy was Er.

"Don't you want it? Er." Xiu had already prepared the cups for them.

"No, I want it." Er's ears were dyed a beautiful pink, and he climbed up awkwardly.

"Oh, it's delicious, Er, don't you like this the most?" Dana took a bite of the cookies, luckily he made a whole basket.

"Hmm." Earl's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

"By the way, Xiu, are you going?" After eating all the biscuits and drinking a whole pot of tea, he brought up this topic again.

"Go, it's okay for the time being anyway." Xiu put the small cloth bag he sewed on his back, filled it with water and some snacks, and followed them to the city.

Xiu went there once at the beginning of summer.It is completely different from the market, very prosperous.Even the buildings were in a style he had never seen before.

"Ah, look, Er. They have weird things on their heads," Dana said aloud.

"Shut up, and put your hands down. You idiot, you can't do that." Er clapped his hands hard.

"Oh." Dana said sullenly after being photographed.But after a while, he still looked unaffected, and became excited again.

Now is the time for the procession to pass by, and everyone gathers on both sides of the street. Even the wide avenue as large as the main road is crowded.

"Idiot, grab it well, or you'll disappear." Earl grabbed his clothes firmly, so as not to get lost in the crowded crowd.Then he turned his head and said a little shyly. "Xiu, you have to catch up too."

"Er?"

"Huh, Xiu?" But the person who was following behind him disappeared at some point.

"Er, Dana?" Xiu was squeezed away by the crowd not long after he entered the crowd.

However, when the crowd was crowded and he had to step on the feet of others every step of the way, he quickly gave up looking for them. "Forget it. Wow, it's breathing fire!" There was a burst of cheers from the crowd.

While he was being happy, Xiu suddenly felt cold all over, and in a flash, he could only smell a bloody smell rushing towards his face.

"Ah! There's a sniper, get down." Completely frightened by the bloody side before him, Xiu trembled all over, his legs were limp.

Although the guards responded immediately, not everyone was able to overcome their fear and obey the orders. The snipers hiding in the dark did not stop shooting, and blood of death continued to burst out from the crowd.

The first person to fall was right in front of Xiu on the left. If it wasn't for his movement just now, he might have been the first person to become a victim.

"Ah!" "Help." "No, get down." "Get out of the way, don't do this." "Step on me. Asshole."

The panicked crowd made a harsh noise, and the streets were full of fallen people, not only killed, but many were knocked down by the panicked crowd, and once they fell, there was no possibility of getting up again .

What is terrible is not the arrows of the sniper, but the stupidity of people.

Only Xiu who followed the flow of people was so numb with fear that he was unexpectedly calm.In an extremely chaotic world, your thoughts wander to completely irrelevant places.

The heartbeat has long been chaotic, and even the voice next to the ear is completely inaudible, as if it is from a third perspective.

In the messy picture, he saw the eye-catching black-haired man sitting on the roof with an indifferent expression ignoring everything in front of him, with the familiar long sword in his arms.Meeting his gaze, that sharp gaze almost paralyzed his heart.But that's just for a moment.

By the time he was fully awake, it was all over.

This is the prelude to the famous "Glacier of the Century" in the history of later generations - "Jia Daishan's Rainy Season".

Xiu was in the chaos, and one eye was hit by someone and was damaged. At first, his vision was completely dark, but he gradually recovered after applying medicine in the medical area.

It's time to change the dressing again, prepare some food and head to the medical area.Because of that incident, many people were injured and the medical area was very busy.

Ah, it's Er and Dana.

"Are you okay?" Earl's body was covered with bandages.But Dana was not hurt.

Earle nodded with a smile, looking in good spirits. "Yeah." But Dana was the complete opposite. He was not injured, but his spirits were listless.

"Mr. Er, Mr. Er, please come here, it's time for you to change your dressing." Er said sorry to them, and walked away with the nurse.

Dana wanted to follow, but hesitated for a while, but still did not go over.

His complexion was really bad, and he seemed to want to cheer up and comfort Xiu, but he opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything.

"Dana?" Xiu smiled gently and patted his head.

"Er, er, for me, for..." Dana buried her face in his arms, sobbing. "It's all my fault that I'm going to... see... it's all my... fault."

At this time, the helpless Xiu could only remain silent, but hugged him tightly.

The gear of fate is so powerful that even if we are in it, we can't shake its progress.

"Thank you, Xiu. Dana is asleep." Er said softly, taking Dana from Xiu's arms.His eyes hadn't left Dana for a moment since he saw them.

Xiu thought something must have happened, although he also felt a little inexplicable sense of loss. "Dana is worried about you."

"Yeah, I only found out that day." Er, who was carrying Dana behind his back, smiled, said goodbye to Xiu, and left.

Until that day, the person who pressed him into his arms without hesitation when he heard the gunshot was Dana.

Listening to the noisy crowd, the sound of gunshots from time to time, and the beating heartbeat in the ears formed a strange rhythm.When he looked up, he saw Dana's eyes."No problem, I'm here" was clearly written in the shining brown eyes.

However, when surging in the crowded crowd, the elbow of a very tall man slammed into Dana who was protecting Er.A blow to the back of the head knocked him down all at once.

Only then will Er know who is the person you are willing to risk your life to protect.When the panicked crowd wanted to step over the fallen Dana, Er protected him without even thinking.

That's why Dana was unscathed, while Er was bruised all over, with multiple fractures all over his body.

Er turned around, smiled, and left.

Huh, show loving guy.Xiu suddenly smiled with relief, I didn't like it in the first place.

"Well, I'll see you guys when I have time." Xiu waved goodbye.

"Mr. Xiu, it's time for you to change your medicine." Xiu followed her.I don't know why when I heard about changing the dressing, I felt that my left eye was getting hot.

The author has something to say: I want to talk about being cute, please update, bah, I'm too used to it, I want to collect it...

smell of blood

Time never stops for anything.

The tail of a summer has not disappeared in the refreshing night wind, and the summer heat still remains on the skin, but the bloody smell in people's memory has completely disappeared.

Even though it is autumn, the weather is still very hot.Food is not easy to preserve, so Xiu leisurely picks a little food every day, as long as it is enough to eat.

"Hi. Long time no see, Er." Xiu sat on the rock by the stream, dipping his white legs into the icy water.Evening and early autumn are still hot. Xiu has always had a body that is afraid of heat. Because of his fine pores, he doesn't sweat easily, and he easily faints due to heat stroke.So Xiu often came to soak in water.

"Hello, Xiu." Er lowered the fruit-studded branches and picked the sweet ones to pick off.

"Summer is so nice, it's all food." Xiu splashed the water and laughed.

"Yeah, but Dana's appetite gets worse after a hot day." Earl seemed very worried. "By the way, Xiu, can you cook any food to stimulate your appetite?"

"Actually, I tried all the recipes myself. If you don't mind." Xiu turned around.

Er laughed and threw a plum over. "Hmm, okay."

"Plums. It's not bad to squeeze this juice for him. Well, it should be half an hour before meals." Xiu splashed some water to wipe the skin, shook the water slightly, and gnawed it. . "It's so sweet."

"Okay, I'll try. I'll go first, Dana is waiting for me at home." Earl smiled extra brightly this time.

The soul is broken, and the love is shown.Xiu gnawed the plum angrily, wiped his feet, put on the straw sandals, and walked home with a basket on his back.

The elongated back of the setting sun is also full of him crookedly lonely.

That fantasy came to mind again.When will the man who sits by the hearth of the house appear?

Pacing slowly, he walked towards the huge tree crown. For some reason, a sweet fragrance wafted over him, and he smiled and jumped over.Is it a flower?But he has never seen it.

Only when the dark red blood filled his eyes did he realize that it was the smell of blood.Jiadaishan's unique monster—the blood butterfly, the red stripes that are hotter than blood, seem to be burning the entire sky, as if to burn the man in the pool of blood to ashes, flying all over the sky.

"It's you..." Xiu's feet trembled uncontrollably, and he could barely stand.

The man's thin fingers with obvious joints were all embedded in the deep soil, and dark brown soil pits spread all over the place.
