"But it's locked in a cage!" she argued.
"It's a canary who can stay in a cage comfortably. If she fights to get out of the cage and fly outside, let alone a canary, I think she is not as good as a sparrow." I recalled my past. I have been staying with my dad who can’t leave the house for a while, and I have complained and unhappiness, but now everything is my best memory, the only past with laughter.
"I just want to go outside. If I can be allowed to go outside, then I would rather not be a canary who only knows how to clean the feathers all day long." She said courageously. But I know very well that if she goes to the outside world and looks at the ugly heart that would rather die than me, she would never be brave.
"What's the matter with you? Standing here and not leaving?" At this time, those people behind also caught up. Her brother came to us first and asked.
"Do you know that the people below have the plague, so you dare not go down?" Of course the woman holding his hand also came to the side and asked with a smile. It seemed to me and Hina, but from her eyes, it was aimed at me alone.
"How could I be afraid? I've been here many times!" Hina hurriedly defended without knowing anything.
"She didn't ask you again, why are you anxious!" I cast a cold glance at the woman, then turned back to Hina.
"I don't mean anything else, just joking! Don't mind Miss Luvian!" She seemed to be shocked by her cold eyes, so she explained with a awkward smile on her face.
"Of course I know that you are not asking me, you humans are not afraid of vampires like me, the plague? Huh! It is a miracle to be infected!" I calmly replied to her. Seeing her face changing from bright to dark, from red to white, and then to look at the man beside her, there is nothing wrong with his face, but maybe it’s because of better cultivation, so only the color of the heart is That's the change.
"Miss Luvian, what are you talking about?" After all, the old host and his wife are old and they have been walking a few times slowly, so they only stepped forward now. Of course, Saffrot and the others are walking slowly with them. They kept talking along the way, but then I was far away from them, so I couldn’t hear the content clearly, but I think what they talked about must be related to me, because I can feel them from time to time The kind of eyes staring at me.
"I didn't say anything, but Hina was telling me why there are no lights in this village." I answered flatly.
"So you are here to discuss this issue!" The woman beside her first exclaimed.
"Okay, let's go in!" As the old master said, he took the lead and walked into the village. To be honest, I really admire him a bit. His behavior is really not something ordinary humans can do.
"Aren't you afraid of being infected?" I was the first to follow and asked.
"What's terrible? They don't have any plague at all. The sick person died long ago. We even cremated the body. Now the entire village is not infected, so there is nothing to be afraid of, just... ..." the old master said helplessly and shook his head.
"It's just that the people outside don't believe it?" I asked casually.
"It seems that the young lady must have experienced a lot!" The old lady answered.
"Experienced too much!" I sighed softly.
"But the saying goes well, let the past pass, and the present is the most important thing. You must never give up the present for the sake of the past!" The old lady said earnestly and earnestly. I know she is for my own good, but too many times it is easy to say but difficult to do, or impossible to do at all.
"But..." I wanted to say "But I am for the future!" But I didn't say it because I didn't know how to answer other people's next questions, such as: "How do you know the future? of?"
"Where are we going? Since they are already asleep, we'd better not disturb them." Looking at the dark houses, Gina suddenly said with some worry.
"They won't go to bed so early today!" the old master replied.
"Why?" Little Gray asked curiously.
"Because there is a wedding tonight." Henna replied expectantly.
"Wedding? In the dark room?" Little Gray felt even more strange.
"No, it's not what you think. You'll know when we get in," the gentleman replied.
"I have never attended a wedding! Sister Luvian, have you attended?" Little Gray said excitedly.
"No, people around me will only die miserably. No one can get happiness." Since my biological parents, I have been watching the death of my relatives and friends, but there is nothing to stop me. , I always think that as long as time goes by, my heart will gradually become paralyzed, but when I lost my adoptive father Lin Youcheng, I thoroughly understood that no matter how many times I experience heartache, it’s impossible. Completely paralyzed. So now I have learned that I don’t have anyone close to me, so I can avoid the pain again and save myself and others.
"Oh! You are so young, why are you so pessimistic!" The old master sighed pitifully.
"This is not pessimism, pessimism does not exist for me, I am just more realistic!" I retorted.
"Here, the door in front is!" Henna interrupted our conversation, pointing to the most dilapidated room in front and shouted.
"No way! How can this house still live in! It's too dangerous! Miss, you better not go in." Gina warned worriedly.
"Ms. Gina, don't worry, I promise nothing will happen!" The old master said as he walked into the very slanted room, and then tossed in a dark corner for a while, and was right in front of us. There was a step that led to the ground. The steps were very long and dark. We only had to follow the people in front, touch the wet mud wall, and slowly groping forward one step downward. Of course, for Saffron Especially for vampires like them, the night can't cover anything at all, so they walk casually, just like on the ground outside.
"There is light!" After groping for a while, I finally saw a glimmer of light. Gina shouted happily.
"It's almost here, everyone, watch your steps. The weather is not so good these days, so the soil is very soft and scratchy." The old master exhorted loudly in front. So we followed him carefully down the last few steps and came to the light completely. It turns out that what we saw was the bright light, which only came out through a crack in a big door!
The old master gently buttoned the door a second time, the first time was twice, the second time was one, it seemed that it should be a secret sign or something. Then the door opened, but I couldn't see who opened the door at all, because after spending so long in the dark, my eyes couldn't adapt to it.
After half a minute, my eyes can fully see the people and things in front of me. Looking at everything in front of me, I have to be surprised that we have entered another world, an underground world, yet another brightly lit world. .
"I didn't expect it to be so big below!" Little Gray sighed unconsciously as he watched so many people crowded into this room, and still gave people a feeling of empty space.
"Wedding! I have never attended it personally!" Gina's expression is similar to that of Little Gray, with a novel look on her face.
"Welcome the old owner and his family to come to my daughter's wedding!" After a group of us stood inside the door for a while, an elderly man from the crowd came up to greet us. Judging from the number and depth of the wrinkles on his face, he must have had a hard time for the past fifty years, but judging from his current look, the hard work of fifty years is also worthwhile.
"Come on, this is our gift!" The old woman took out an extremely delicate small box from her arms and handed it to the old man.
"Old lady, you really don't need to be so polite. You saved all our lives. How can we receive such a valuable gift!" The old man opened the box and saw, a pair of engagement rings for the new couple, pure gold It was made, there were rubies embedded on it, so it was very embarrassing to refuse.
"It should be right. We watched Ling'er grow up, and we have always treated Ling'er as a daughter. Now that she is married, how can this gift be said to be precious!" the old lady persuaded, so the old man had to accept it. Next, he called the bride and groom over, saying that they wanted them to thank the old owner and the old lady. It was only then that I saw the couple face-to-face. The bride and groom looked pretty good, but they were too white. Of course I didn’t mean the natural white skin, I meant the unnatural paleness, not only Just the skin, even the hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes are pale white. The only difference is that the bride is better than the groom.
"Child, I wish you all grow old, and always love the river." The old woman held the two newcomers together and blessed her sincerely.
"The bride is so beautiful! I don't know when I can be so beautiful!" Henna sighed beside me.
"When we got married!" his brother replied funny.
"I'm not a fool, of course I know this." Hina glared at her brother and said.
"You child!" The old woman also made a funny rebuke. When the couple and the old man walked away to continue the wedding, she turned to look at me and asked, "Miss Luvian, what do you think of their lives? ?"
"Very good!" I replied blankly. I think the time for ideological education for me should be the beginning.
"Is it good? I think you should have noticed that many people here are just like the new couple just now, a little overweight, right?" the old woman asked in opposition.
"Yes, I think it should be the reason for staying underground for a long time." I definitely said my thoughts at this time.
"You are right, because they can't live on the ground like ordinary humans, so they become so white. Now that you know it, do you still think their lives are good?" Old woman In-depth way step by step.
"It depends on what they are compared with. If they are compared with ordinary happy humans, then they should be living a miserable life, but if they are compared with ordinary vampires, then they don't know how much happiness they want. "I replied thoughtfully.
"What about comparing them with you?" the gentleman suddenly interrupted and asked.
"Then they just don't know what painful happy human beings are." I replied without hesitation.
"Is your life really that sad?" his wife asked in disbelief.
"For me, I'm used to it, so I won't call it sad anymore, but if you look at it by your inner standards, then yes." I believe in this world, there will be no more people or It’s a vampire who is as miserable as me. Maybe my ability is very powerful, but no matter how powerful it is, there are things that cannot be prevented from happening. Sometimes I can clearly feel that I am the general on the chess board and the powerful one behind. His hand is arbitrarily manipulating everything around me. As long as I am not dead, he can sacrifice any chess piece, and the final result is to let me watch myself lose everything I have ever had, stand tragically in place, let time pass, After the wind and rain had blown, he hadn't changed at all, except for the countless wounds in his heart.
"This is just what you said. You have never told us what you have experienced in the past, so how can you make us believe everything you say?" She still refused to let me go easily.
"Have I told you to believe everything I said?" But she was a little too weak to deal with me.
"But..." She still didn't want to stop.
"Well, let's watch their wedding quietly, and bless them silently!" He tugged at his wife and motioned to stop arguing with me so endlessly. I think he knows his only The fashionable wife is not my opponent at all, so for the sake of his wife, I had to stand up and stop him.
"This is the custom of this village. At the wedding, the bride must step on the small silver cup buckled on the ground with toes and walk ten meters to the groom's face. And these silver cups are specially made, and each has a different shape. , There are square, round, and prismatic. It’s not right. These cups of different shapes each represent some good blessings, such as: hundreds of children and grandchildren, love between husband and wife, etc. If the bride accidentally puts the silver cup If you step on it, it means that she can't get such a blessing. Of course, this is very unlucky for the newcomer, so I heard that Linger practiced hard every day." The old master watched the ceremony again and again. Explain it to us outsiders, just like a football commentator. The only thing I can say is that there are strange customs and tortures everywhere, but they can be passed on from generation to generation and endure for a long time.
