Little Sun and Little Flower Fairy

Chapter 25

"Ah?" Hearing Xu Ran's question, Mianmian tilted her head to look at Xu Ran, her brain's reaction was half a beat slow, and she suddenly felt shy, "What are you thinking?"

"When I was in a coma, there was a big fire in the sea of ​​consciousness. I smelled your breath... Isn't it?" Xu Ran was stunned for a while, and stammered to answer.

Mianmian hammered Xu Ran's chest, and said angrily, "I didn't! I... I seemed to be crying..."

Hearing Mianmian's aggrieved voice, Xu Ran stretched out his hand and gently pressed the corner of Mianmian's eyes, trying to wipe away the tears.Mianmian's face was hot, Xu Ran pinched his face, and Mianmian glanced at him pretending to be reproachful, then hurriedly withdrew his hand and came back, smiling.

Mianmian still felt embarrassed, and she was still muttering: "You are really, confused, talking nonsense..." But she couldn't help but think about that aspect in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed Panic.

Xu Ran stopped teasing him, thinking that Mianmian was really cute.Sitting up, she pulled Mianmian and said, "I'm fine now, let's pack up and hurry."

Mianmian ignored Xu Ran's blunt way of changing the subject, turned her head and quickly packed up the bedding, and after a while she packed up and got into the carriage, holding the reins of the old horse, and started today's journey with the horse.

This day, the incident in the early morning made both of them a little nervous, and they didn't bother to find a place to rest at noon, and lunch was hurriedly settled on the frame. Mianmian was nervous about Xu Ran, wondering when he would pass out again, Xu Ran was thinking about the cause of his coma several times, and wanted to go back to Fusang to find the answer. The two had their own concerns and didn't talk much.

It was a gloomy day. The thick clouds in the sky covered the sun, and the pressure was very low. The water vapor in the air became more and more abundant. One could smell the smell and guess that there would be a heavy rain soon.They hurried away from the lake, walked for a whole day and then bypassed a hill, and came to a small village. There were not many families in the village, and the few families they lived in were old people who were unwilling to move.There are quite a few dilapidated huts. After asking a family, Mianmian decided to stay here tonight, lest it suddenly rain on the way. It is winter when the bedding and quilt get wet. Added a lot of trouble.

I chose a hut that was not so dilapidated. There were a few "patches" covered with thatch on the tiled roof. There were a few weeds growing scattered on the path in the small yard in front of the door. Mianmian walked in. Seeing that there is not much dust on the furnishings in the house, a few simple pieces of furniture are placed very neatly. I heard from the old man in the village that this abandoned house was vacated not long ago. The old man was taken to the city by his descendants when he was sick. In the big house, there was another family missing in the village. When the old man thought about the old things, his eyes were a little sad, as if he was lamenting the changes in current events.Mianmian tied the horse in the stable at the head of the village, and added some grass for the horse. Xu Ran carried the luggage to the hut, piled up the bedding and the like on the wooden bed, and the two clapped their hands to tidy it up. Wipe off the thin dust on the table, pour two glasses of water to drink, and sit face to face to rest.

There was a wind blowing outside the window, and the crumbling dead leaves hanging on the branches were blown off by the wind, swirling on the ground, making a rustling sound, the clouds in the distance became even lower, and the sky darkened, as if the next second It will rain, the air will be wet and cold, Mianmian shrinks her neck, walks to the window and wants to close the window, just as she closes the window and turns around, a gust of wind behind her opens the window again, pouring into the room. Cold, Mianmian turned around, looked at the scenery outside the window, her eyes widened.

The clouds in the distance began to rain, only this small village seemed to be protected by some kind of enchantment, although a circle of clouds was low, but not a single drop of rain fell.The gust of wind that blew just now seemed to be an illusion. The tree outside the door was extremely quiet, and everything seemed to have become still at this moment.Looking at the distant sky, there is a looming fire moving in the clouds, and the direction of the movement is the small village where they are.

Xu Ran walked to the window, fixed his eyes on the moving flame figure, and murmured, "Why is he here?"

"Who?" Mianmian was puzzled.

"My elder brother." Xu Ran replied, staring at the sky, suddenly turned around and closed the window, and sat back on the seat, "Can't he wait to pick me up..."

Speaking of going back, Mianmian suddenly looked at Xu Ran nervously, but some words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't ask. She just held the water glass silently, took a sip of water, and then looked out the door worriedly.

A sudden gust of wind blew open the doors and windows again, and the outside suddenly became very bright, even dazzling. A tree that had lost all its leaves outside the door suddenly made a crackling sound, and it began to burn after a while. It swallowed a dead tree all at once, leaving only a scorched black wooden stake, and a person stood on it. The person was very small, and looked like a child of seven or eight years old, wearing a black robe. , with fiery red silk thread embroidering intricate patterns on it, the child's hair is loose and grows to the calf, the tail of the hair is slightly curled up, the expression on the face can be said to be indifferent, looking at the little girl with a little arrogance. Looking at the thatched cottage, seeing the two people sitting in the door, there was no movement on their faces, just pointing with their fingers, the straw on the roof started to catch fire, and choking black smoke came out, Mianmian coughed.

"Enough!" Xu Ran waved his sleeves, and the fire that hadn't ignited died suddenly, leaving no sparks behind, "Who are you?"

The child jumped down from the tree stump lightly, and did not make a sound when he landed. Every time he took a step, the weeds under his footprints were burned clean, and even the roots were swallowed by the heat of the flames.He got close to Mianmian to see his appearance clearly, he was [-]% similar to Xu Ran, but the indifferent expression on his face seemed not friendly enough, so Mianmian shrank behind Xu Ran.

The child took a look at Mianmian, turned his eyes away indifferently, and looked at Xu Ran for a long while: "I am you."

"Today, I'm here to take you back."

"You're running out of time."

When Mianmian heard the child's incomprehensible words, her heart was empty, and she stepped out and asked, "What do you mean? What time?"

"You have to go back, come with me."

Xu Ran took Mianmian's hand, squeezed it to signal Mianmian to calm down, Mianmian was comforted by Xu Ran, she calmed down her anxious mood a little, looked at Xu Ran, Xu Ran gave him a reassuring look.

The mysterious child ignored the communication between the two, and said to himself: "Brother asked me to bring you back."

"I told my brother that I can go back by myself." Xu Ran looked at the man, the temperature in his eyes turned cold.

The child didn't speak, and a small delicate mirror appeared in his hand, with a picture printed on it, which was the picture of Xu Ran when he was fainted.

"This is the prophetic mirror." He said, "If you don't go back, you will always fall into a coma and fight with yourself in the sea of ​​consciousness."

"Why am I like this? Since I woke up..."

"Because you're not whole."

Thousands of years ago, Xu Ran was wounded by an arrow and fell. When he howled in the air, his soul was stirred up, and he dropped a few tail feathers. The tail feathers that were attached to part of Xu Ran's soul were collected by his brother in the next hundred years, and they were preserved for thousands of years. , until Xu Ran woke up, and the soul gradually developed. The missing soul made Xu Ran lack of godhead. Without enough soil to cultivate the godhead, Xu Ran could only fall into a state of stagnation. Jinwu himself had no way to come to the world without authorization, so he sent The spirit who had just become conscious came to Xu Ran's side and asked him to take Xu Ran home.

But what he didn't expect was that Xu Ran didn't cooperate.
