Chapter 1596 Return to the Village
The girl was startled.

She looked in the direction of the sound and found that Master Xiao and the young brother had walked some distance away.

Without the fireflies, the lakeside is less dreamy and more lonely and... eerie.

There was a slight chill in the air.

The girl's exposed arms suddenly got goose bumps.

She rubbed her arms and called out urgently, "Hey, wait for me."

The girl trotted after him.

……

"We thought you were going to stay the night at the lake."

Su Xun teased the girl.

"What night?"

Wang Tong rolled her eyes, "The fireflies are gone."

"Why am I still staying there?"

“Feed the mosquitoes.”

……

"Wow~"

The next second, the girl held her cheeks with both hands and said, "Fireflies are so beautiful!"

"It sparkles like a fairy."

"Little elf...Master Xiao!"

The girl suddenly shouted loudly.

Xiao Xiao, who was named, was fine, but Su Xun was shocked.

"Tongtong."

Su Xun held his forehead with his hand, "Speak more quietly."

"The animals are all asleep."

“Don’t scare them.”

"Ah, oh."

The girl covered her mouth and smiled embarrassedly.

"So, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at the girl's expression, Su Xun shook his head with amusement.

"What's wrong with me?"

The girl was confused for a moment.

Su Xun twitched his eyes, and before he could speak, the girl's face showed a look of realization, "Yes, yes."

"I remembered!"

"Master Xiao."

The girl remembered to lower her voice, "Have you seen an elf?"

"Elf?"

Su Xun murmured, "How-"

He subconsciously wanted to deny it, but when his eyes fell on Master Xiao, his voice stopped abruptly.

Impossible or something...

It may not be the case for Master Xiao, right?
……

"Elf?"

Xiao Xiao looked at the girl with some surprise.

The girl was the first person to ask him this question.

I have to say that Wang Tong is really good at thinking.

However, he shook his head slightly and said, "No."

"I don't see any elves."

"There's none?"

Wang Tong was full of disappointment, "Then..."

The girl became excited again, "Master Xiao, do elves exist in the world?"

"do not know."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "At least I haven't encountered it."

"There's none?"

Wang Tong's tone was particularly regretful.

But after a few seconds of depression, the girl became excited again, "Since there are monsters in the world, there should be elves too, right?"

"Master Xiao, if you see an elf someday, you must tell me!"

Wang Tong looked at Xiao Xiao seriously.

Compared to monsters, elves are the fantasy that every girl must have.

If elves really existed in the world, she would probably be so happy that she went crazy, right?

The girl clenched her hands.

……

"it is good."

"what!"

Xiao Xiao's voice overlapped with Su Xun's cry.

"Little brother, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Tong looked Su Xun up and down, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.

"You just said that to me."

"Shh~"

The girl put her finger in front of her lips, signaling Su Xun to speak more softly.

"Feel sorry."

Su Xun smiled bitterly, "I just remembered now that I didn't take a picture of the fireflies just now."

When he first realized this, he was overwhelmed.

As long as we take a picture of the fireflies by the lake, and Master Xiao has solved the problem of tourists fainting after returning, Qingshui Village will soon return to its previous number of tourists.

It will even attract more tourists.

"Ah~" Wang Tong also looked regretful.

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said pointedly, "You didn't take the camera either."

So, even if Su Xun remembered to take a photo, he had no way to do it.

Su Xun and Wang Tong paused.

It seems... that's the case.

“And a cell phone.”

The girl murmured.

Su Xun rubbed his temple and said, "Master Xiao is right."

"Originally I always carry a SLR camera with me when I go out."

"this time……"

Because the purpose of this trip was to investigate the cause of fainting among tourists returning from Qingshui Village, not to collect folk songs, he did not bring his SLR.

Who would have thought that they would miss such a great scene?

"Master Xiao."

Su Xun couldn't give up the idea of ​​taking photos of fireflies. "Can you stay in Qingshui Village for another day?"

"I'd like to come here again tomorrow night."

As for what to do here, it goes without saying.

"it is good."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

It was summer vacation.

He has plenty of time.

"Ah, then I'll stay one more night too!"

The girl raised her hand and quickly expressed her opinion.

"I want to see fireflies again, too."

Su Xun smiled and nodded.

He was not surprised by what the girl said.

It can be seen from the girl's reluctance to leave just now that if she had the chance, she would definitely choose to stay.

Several people returned to the village.

Except for the house where they were staying, all other rooms were dark.

Looking at the old man who opened the door for them, Xiao Xiao and the other two felt embarrassed.

"Grandpa Li, you don't have to wait for us."

Su Xun smiled bitterly, "It's so late, you can just leave the door open."

"it's okay no problem."

The old man waved his hand, "I'm old, I don't sleep much."

"Actually, I just closed my eyes for a while."

"How's it going? Did you find anything?"

Without waiting for Su Xun to say anything else, the old man asked curiously.

Then he nodded, "You should have seen it, right?"

"Otherwise I wouldn't have come back so late."

"Ah."

Su Xun nodded, "I see."

“Super beautiful fireflies!”

Wang Tong whispered.

Thinking of the scene at that time, her expression became excited again.

"Beautiful, right?"

The old man smiled and said, "Now I am old, my legs and feet are not so good."

"When I was still able to walk, I would go to the woods every year to watch fireflies."

“We caught a lot of them.”

"At night, turn off the lights and release the fireflies."

The old man looked a little dazed, "That scene"

“It’s like a dream.”

"It's so beautiful."

"At that time, I couldn't bear to close my eyes while lying in bed."

"I don't even know when I fell asleep."

When talking about the interesting things in the past, the old man's brows were relaxed and his face was full of smiles.

"It's a pity that fireflies don't live long."

The old man's smile faded and he sighed.

"They all died within a few days."

"The first time I saw the dead body of a firefly, I cried."

Thinking of himself crying as a child, the old man shook his head slightly.

He had actually forgotten how he felt at that time.

I just remember that he cried really hard.

“Then I got used to it.”

"I also know that fireflies only live for a few days."

"There is no way."

The old man laughed again, "Look at me, I just wanted to say a few words, but I started nagging again."

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go and get some rest."

"If we delay any longer, it will be dawn soon."

The old man urged the others.

"correct."

The old man suddenly remembered something, "I put the new toothbrush, cup and towel in the bathroom."
