Chapter 179 Leaving in the Heavy Rain
Xiao Xiao shook the hand that held Xiannang's. It felt cold and rough, just like the impression given by the appearance of this hand.
"Hello, my name is Xiao Xiao."
喪囊:?
It opened its mouth, but no sound came out.
It can't speak.
Although he was startled at first, he was soon attracted by the feeling in his hand.
The feeling of the handshake was a little different from the last time. It was not as soft as I remembered, but not as hard as mine either. It was a feeling in between the two.
But it's also warm.
Xinang stretched his stiff fingers and clenched them again.
Its hands are much smaller than this human's.
Si Nang compared them with a look of curiosity.
……
Xiao Xiao let the bag look at his hand.
He couldn't tell why he held the boy's hand just now.
I just held it subconsciously.
He himself was a little surprised.
Maybe it was because of the look on Xinang's face as he watched his figure disappear into the rain that made him feel a little reluctant.
……
This monster was born trapped in a corner, with no choice and no way to leave.
No matter how much moss grows all over its body and how time passes, it remains here forever.
An outstretched hand may just be a way to reach out to the outside world.
Whether someone holds it or not, Xiannang never tires of repeating the same action.
Xiao Xiao didn't know whether deep down in its heart, Xiannang hoped that someone would hold its hand and take it away from here.
He was unwilling to speculate.
If this was the fate that Xi Nang was born with, Xiao Xiao did not want his self-righteousness to hurt this ignorant monster.
Just like a fish can only live in water, this sac can only live here.
That's it.
There is nothing worthy of others' criticism or sympathy.
……
"Wow~"
The noisy sound of rain is endless, but it also creates a hazy world isolated from the outside world.
Xiao Xiao leaned against the stone wall, looking at the pouring rain.
Because there are protruding rocks above, it can still be slightly blocked from the rain.
The sky was gloomy, and raindrops hit the green leaves, rocks, and deserted mountain paths with a "crackling" sound, splashing up bursts of water mist.
Xiao Xiao's hand was still holding that of Xiannang.
Si Nang lowered his head and looked at the two clasped hands intently, as if he could not see enough.
Xiao Xiao's hands were wet by the rain, and the heat gradually dissipated, turning into damp and cold.
Xinang frowned in some confusion.
Why is it getting colder?
……
Xiao Xiao could only see that Xinang had his head lowered. He had no hair, but was covered with moss.
“It’s raining so hard.”
Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth and started talking.
Xi Nang's whole body stiffened, obviously frightened by Xiao Xiao's sudden voice.
After keeping his head down and being silent for a while, Xi Nang slowly raised his head and looked at Xiao Xiao cautiously, with obvious confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao smiled and stretched out his free left hand forward with his palm facing up. The raindrops hit his palm with a "crackling" sound. If it were in the past, Xiao Xiao would have felt a slight pain, but now, Xiao Xiao just felt the jumping of the raindrops on his hand, which was a very interesting experience.
"I said, it's raining heavily."
Xiao Xiao turned around and repeated his previous words to Xinang.
Xi Nang looked confused, but he followed the example of the human in front of him and stretched out his other hand with his palm facing up. Raindrops hit his palm in a chaotic manner, and some raindrops flew in all directions, even splashing on his face.
"Haha~"
Seeing that Xinang narrowed his eyes in panic, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and laughed out loud.
Xinang looked at the human in front of him who was laughing happily, a little confused, and didn't understand what he was laughing at.
……
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt emotional. People always thought that monsters were cunning and sly, but they didn't know that although some monsters were indeed like that, some monsters lived alone in a corner all year round and never understood the ways of the world, so they were simple and ignorant.
For example, He Bo, or the little stork in front of us. The world in their eyes must be simple and pure, right?
……
The heavy rain came quickly and went away quickly.
It was indeed a thunderstorm.
The sky gradually brightened.
The rain was falling sparsely, and a few golden rays shot out from the gaps in the clouds.
After being washed by the heavy rain, the world looks brand new and has a bright glow.
Soon, the rain stopped completely.
The clear summer sky appeared before the public again, clear and blue, like a huge gem, with a clear halo flowing through it.
The sound of cicadas gradually came to my ears again.
"I know~I know~"
……
"I have to go now."
The rain stops, and soon there will be tourists passing by here.
Xi Nang looked at the bright sun, grinned happily, and didn't notice what Xiao Xiao said for a moment.
It was not until Xiao Xiao pulled his hand away that Xiannang looked at Xiao Xiao in confusion and panic, and subconsciously wanted to grab Xiao Xiao's hand that was about to leave.
"I'm leaving."
Xiao Xiao repeated it again.
The light in Xi Nang's eyes that had been brightening due to the clearing sky gradually dimmed.
However, it did not try to grab Xiao Xiao's hand again.
Xi Nang looked at Xiao Xiao, his face as hard as a rock made it difficult to read his expression.
However, Xiao Xiao understood that the monster was saying goodbye to him.
"Goodbye, sangnang."
Xiao Xiao squatted down, looked into Xinang's eyes and said with a faint smile in his eyes.
Then, Xiao Xiao stood up, turned around and left.
……
Watching Xiao Xiao's back gradually disappearing along the mountain path, Xianang subconsciously wanted to take a step forward.
But he found himself unable to move, and his upper body bent forward.
His face became even darker.
It can't leave here on its own.
……
But soon, Xinang became happy again because he saw someone coming around the corner.
……
After going down the mountain, Xiao Xiao took a taxi directly back home.
After all, being wet is not a pleasant feeling.
Moreover, "Feifei~Feifei~" and "Aowu~Aowu~", these two monsters have been making noise for a long time.
Obviously they are very dissatisfied with their current situation.
Especially Feifei, his hair was all tangled together.
A certain monster who is particular about hygiene and extremely fond of beauty is about to explode.
Especially there was a Taotie next to it that kept laughing at it.
……
After returning home, Xiao Xiao spent nearly two hours to deal with the two monsters.
It only took him ten minutes to take a shower.
The main reason was that it took a lot of time to blow-dry and straighten Feifei's hair.
A certain Taotie was very easy to deal with because of its tiny size.
……
"Coffee~"
Feifei shook his fur with satisfaction. His fur, which looked like snow, shone brightly, and the red demon patterns sparkled.
"Little guy, are you satisfied now?"
"Coffee~"
Feifei rubbed Xiao Xiao in a flattering manner, her eyes narrowed slightly.
