Douluo: The Tang Poison Official Match - Chapter 197
After finally waiting for Tang San’s holiday with his fingers, Shen Xiu enthusiastically cleaned up the house that was cleaned yesterday, trying to ensure that it looked neat and clean, and moved a small wooden stool to the door. Sitting on the stool with a gift for Tang San, staring intently at the only way into the village.
The villagers who came and went were all given big smiles by Shen Xiu. The enthusiastic aunts squeezed and rubbed Shen Xiu’s little tender face, and gave him a lot of sweets and snacks.
A bag full of sweets and snacks was collected, and Tang San hadn’t come back yet.
Probably something was delayed on the way, or, Tang San was actually almost here…
Shen Xiu kept comforting himself, but the hand holding the gift was tightening unconsciously.
Sitting from day to noon, and from noon to night, until the night is low and the stars are shining, the only thing left in the Holy Soul Village is the sound of dog barking from time to time. The night breeze is slow, and the silence makes people feel terrible, Tang San’s No figure appeared in Shen Xiu’s sight.
Shen Xiu blinked sour eyes, stood up silently and moved his cold and stiff body blown by the wind, planning to go home and take the quilt out and wait.
He said that he will wait for the third brother to come back.
“Eh eh, kid, kid.” Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps and shouts that were deliberately suppressed and did not want to disturb the villagers. Shen Xiu subconsciously turned his head back when he saw the person who belonged to Notting Junior Soul Master Academy. His heart trembled fiercely in his school uniform.
“Child, do you know where Tang San’s house is?” The man came was a sturdy boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He quickly ran to Shen Xiu and squatted down, trying to squeeze a smile that he thought was kind, and then he thought about it and put it in his pocket He took out a candy wrapped in colored paper and stuffed it into Shen Xiu’s hand, “This candy is for you, so hurry up and go home to sleep at this late hour.”
Shen Xiu looked down at the candy in his hand, his long and dense eyelashes trembled slightly. The boy watching was a little bit ticklish and wanted to fiddle with it twice. After finally suppressing his thoughts, he heard that he was white and tender in front of him. The child said lightly, “Here it is.”
“Huh?” The boy who hadn’t recovered from the shaking eyelashes stupidly uttered a questioning syllable, and his dark eyes stared at Shen Xiu in a daze.
“This is Tang San’s home.” Shen Xiu curled his lips and said word by word with great earnestness. It was more like he was saying this to himself than explaining it to the boy.
“Then you are Tang San’s younger brother Shen Xiu!” The boy understood Shen Xiu’s meaning and almost didn’t jump up. He flushed, took the package behind his back and handed it to Shen Xiu, “This is Tang San for you. He said he couldn’t come back if he had something to do, and asked me to give you the thing. I came home late when I went home.”
“Why didn’t he come back?” Shen Xiu didn’t pick up the package, and looked up at the boy, his eyes dark as if no light could penetrate.
The boy scratched his head and said uncertainly, “It seems that Sister Xiao Wu is sick? Tang San wants to take care of her. This holiday is only one week away, and Tang San said that he still needs to work in Notting City to make money. It may be true. You can’t come back in time. Don’t be sad for Xiaoxiu. Tang San also asked me to bring you a sentence. He said that when your spirit awakens, he will definitely come back to see you.”
Shen Xiu took a deep breath, smiled gratefully at the boy, and said softly, “Thank you brother, I know.” He smiled cleverly with his flushed eyes, “Couldn’t brother bring me a word, just one sentence? Just say, Xiaoxiu will definitely wait for his brother to come back, and his brother will definitely come back.”
The immature voice even brought a trembling cry. The boy looked at the child in front of him while sucking his nose and holding back the tears while politely thanking him. He couldn’t help but feel a little painful. His pity is even heavier. He wanted to say some comforting words, but he was stupid and didn’t know what to say, so he could only scratch his head in a daze to make sure that he would bring Shen Xiu’s words.
Shen Xiu reluctantly pulled away the corners of his lips, “Thank you, brother.”
The boy responded and took out a handful of candies from his pocket and stuffed it into Shen Xiu’s hands involuntarily. He said incoherently, “You, take a good rest. It’s too late to go to bed. The kid should go to bed early! By the way, My name is Xiao Chenyu, don’t forget! I, I’m leaving now.”
Shen Xiu watched Xiao Chenyu disappear into his sight like flying away, and he wanted to laugh. The curvature of the corners of his lips just fell halfway, and he couldn’t bear it. He stared blankly at the colorful candies in his heart. , The ghost tears one apart and put it in the mouth.
The taste on the tip of the tongue was sweet and refreshing, with a fruity fragrance, but Shen Xiu felt it incomparably astringent.
“Actually, it’s not delicious at all.” Shen Xiu muttered to himself, the tears that had been rolling in his eyes finally slipped down his cheeks. He choked and wiped his face, the expression on his face seemed like a smile but not a cry.” Really, **** gravity, I am really good at physics…”
He muttered and turned around and entered the house. When he stepped into the threshold, he accidentally tripped. The gift he had been in his arms fell to the ground and rolled away gruntingly.
Shen Xiu stared blankly at the gift he had carefully prepared for a long time.
It was a wood carving. The carving was not exquisite but not rough. It vividly carved a lifelike figure, and a slender grass vine surrounds the figure from bottom to top. The surface of the entire wooden sculpture is extremely smooth, and at first glance, it is often touched and played with. It looks cold and desolate under the pale moonlight pouring in from the door.
Shen Xiu’s body trembled slightly.
He squatted down to pick up the wooden sculpture, hugged it tightly in his arms, tears that he could hold back opened the gate, and the fine sobbing choked in his throat.
why why!
If you have agreed to come back, why not come back!
Since he is not coming back, why give him hope again!
Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu again! Xiao Wu is so good that she doesn’t even want her brother, isn’t she!
Say good things to spend a lifetime together, say good things to love him only, say good things to never leave.
Shen Xiu watched coldly as the candy toys in the package that Xiao Chenyu had brought scattered all over the floor. His dead-water eyes were half scarlet and half pitch black, and the body curled up on the cold ground was deadly silent in the moonlight.
“Grandpa Jack, let’s go.” After standing at the entrance of the village and waiting for most of the day, Shen Xiu said to Old Jack calmly, with a good and soft smile on his face.
“But…” Old Jack looked at Shen Xiu worriedly, and finally just angrily patted Shen Xiu’s head, and said kindly, “We don’t wait for the junior, let’s go by ourselves, the junior is too unreliable, maybe it is. It’s not that I’m busy making money and want to raise Xiaoxiu well. I forgot that today is the day when Xiaosan’s martial soul awakens. When Xiaosan comes back, Grandpa Jack will help you beat him!”
Shen Xiu’s eyebrows curled up, “I know, Grandpa Jack will have to vent his anger for me when the time comes.”
Shen Xiu respectfully helped Old Jack to walk to the place where the spirit awakening was tested. Finally, he glanced at the empty village entrance, and the corners of his lips were a little cold.
“Xiao Xiu, don’t be nervous after a while, and follow the instructions of Master Soul Master, huh?” Old Jack babbled the reminder that he had told Shen Xiu several times. Shen Xiu just responded obediently when he saw When standing in front of a small wooden house called Wuhundian branch hall, the boy biting a grass stem, his smile deepened, “Brother Chenyu, are you coming to see me?”
“Who, who came to see you!” Xiao Chenyu scratched his head, his eyes flickering, “Well, Tang San said he will be there soon, let you test first.” After speaking, he looked at Shen Xiu nervously. , Looked like she was afraid of Shen Xiu crying.
Shen Xiu just responded calmly, “I see, thank you Chenyu Goth for coming to tell me this time.”
Xiao Chenyu’s face was reddened, and he scratched his hair with a tone of disdain, “This, what is this. What, then, hurry up and take part in the Martial Spirit Test, let me see how talented you are.”
Shen Xiu curled his eyes quietly and smiled, thick eyelashes hanging down to cover the emotion in his eyes.
