His foothold was located at the highest point in the entire Moon City, a tall tower made of scrap metal, shimmering with a messy light that only when blades were vertical and horizontal under the round golden full moon.Lying on a broken billboard at the bottom of the tower, someone wrote crookedly words in bright red paint, which no one could understand, and the font was exaggerated and huge, and the night could not steal its eye-catching.There was no expression on his face, only the slow-beating heart, waiting for a fate.In the early hours of this morning, he went to visit an old friend.The woman, no, the banshee, was about the only friend he had in life.They haven't seen each other for three hundred years, or maybe five hundred years.She is still the same, full of amorous charms, laughing and scolding, opening a dessert shop in an alley, shouting and drinking at two stupid-looking helpers, and a leisurely appearance that has been washed away in the city and has nothing to do with the world's troubles.Who would have thought that on a certain evening in the past, the two of them would work together to deal with a two-headed redfin beep on the top of the icy Moshan Mountain, on the Huangquan Lake, which was half ice and half flame.At that time, she had long hair and a snow sword, turned her hands into rain, covered her palms into the wind, and was as agile as a leopard, the huge and dangerous monster, spitting red letters, churning and howling under the remnant sun, and the waves of water covered half of the sky.He watched as her sword danced in a beautiful and calm trajectory in the pale gold light, stabbing precisely into the throat of the red-scaled anacone.When the corpse of this behemoth fell heavily into the lake, its blue blood quickly filled the entire surface of the lake, as if reflecting the rarest blue sky."
You're the most ruthless youkai I've ever seen."
He glanced at her, cut open the back of the red scale beep, pulled out a thumb-thick "thread" from it, wound it in several circles, and put it in his pocket.She picked up the snow on the ground, wiped her sword carefully, and smiled, "Each other." ”"Can we be friends?"
he stopped abruptly before leaving.Before that day, there was no word "friend" in his life."
If you treat me to a good meal and give me another box of gold bars," she said, she got up, shrugged her shoulders, and stuck her tongue out at him, "I can think about it." ”In the days that followed, he became friends with her.Although they don't meet often, even if they meet, it's just a happy drunkenness, drunk him, she laughed and made a fuss when she was drunk, and finally, sat on the ground and fell asleep on his lap.He knew that he was different from her.Her ruthlessness in the blade of the sword is only to protect those who are not capable of protecting herself.However, his knife is different, although it has the same power.One day, he went to her and gave her one of his most important things."
Keep it for me," he patted her on the shoulder.She looked at the things in her hand, was silent for a long time, and said, "You have to think clearly, you may not have a chance to retrieve it from me." ”"If that's the case, then you'll be cheaper."
He winked at her, turned around, and walked away without any worries.Hundreds of years, sometimes slow as a drop of water, sometimes a white horse passing through the gap, not at all.Yesterday, he sat in her "non-stop", calmly drinking the very bitter cup of tea she had made him, and said, "Don't you ask me why I came to retrieve it?"
”She raised an eyebrow."
You really haven't changed at all."
He smiled.She didn't reply, watched him take a deep breath, stepped forward and gave him a big hug, and didn't let go for a long time.As he left, he looked back: "If I come to you tomorrow, we'll get drunk" "It depends on how many gold bars you give me." ”She stuck her tongue out at him.Standing at the gate, she watched his back go away, and her always radiant brows gradually became stained with a layer of worry, I will definitely get drunk with you, just like many days ago.As long as you will appear to me tomorrow, peace will appear before me.She said this to herself in her heart.t1706231537:
