I thought it was be but it turned out to be he

The long black hair spread out and floated on the water, swaying with the slight fluctuations like water plants.

In the future, wearing only a thin undergarment, he closed his eyes and immersed himself in the newly built pool, lying quietly on his back in the shape of a cross, as if his body was not water at all but a big soft bed.

Consciousness flew to a distant time and space without realizing it...

In the era of advanced technology in the 21st century, the huge ancient corridors and houses on the mountainside, the busy streets and towering buildings at the foot of the mountain seem out of place.

Four or five men in suits hurried down the corridor, and the one walking in front was an old man with a dignified face.He came to the innermost Japanese-style room, and there was a woman lying on the tatami with a baby in her stomach, and the young man who was taking care of her was her husband.

Seeing the old man coming in, the couple quickly saluted, "Father."

"Father, is the clan's meeting over yet?" The woman fondled her belly as she spoke, feeling the throbbing of a new life that was about to be born through several layers of clothing.

The old man didn't reply, but judging from his serious expression, the meeting was over.

Sensing the tension in the air, the couple also felt uneasy.

This kind of silence lasted for a long time. After all, the old man sighed and told the two soon-to-be parents the truth, "What was discussed at the meeting has come to fruition."

Pausing for a few seconds to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart, he continued, "The field has been active among monsters for hundreds of years and is admired by people. It all started 300 years ago. Although each generation of suzerain They are trying their best to maintain it, even looking for the big demon at that time, but it still cannot be stopped from collapsing. Gradually, the Chang family began to decline from the inside. It is also a family that comes from a sect other than the blood relationship, and it is always inevitable to face death, and until today, a family that was originally that big has become thin and thin."

As he spoke, he seemed to be lost in memory, with a painful expression on his face.

The old man also has an eldest son. He is a good boy with excellent spiritual power. He has been working hard to fight against demons, but unfortunately he was besieged and killed by a group of monsters at a young age; his wife accompanied him through decades of ups and downs, and finally Because of a terrorist bombing attack and 36 hostages were killed together...

Wave after wave of grief welled up in the old man's eyes, as if infected by him, the couple also lowered their eyes sadly.

After grieving for a long time, the old man came back to his senses, concealed all his emotions, and continued the topic just now, "After repeated deliberation by the elders, I feel that it is time for the Chang family and the curse that has haunted us for 200 years to end."

The young man's face changed drastically as if he expected something bad, "What does Father mean?"

The old man closed his eyes for three seconds with heartache, and when he opened them again, he was full of determination, "The cause of the curse is that the Zhang family has owed too many blood debts through the ages. If you want to pay it off, you can only pay it with blood. Chang Jingsi is the one who is most likely to become the next head of the family, so we can only find someone who can bear this curse in the branch family."

It's all said and done, and there's still something I don't understand.

The woman couldn't bear to protect her stomach, "How can it be possible! Father, our child has not yet been born... It's too unfair to him..."

"Everything has been decided. After the child is full moon, the blood contract ceremony will be held for the child."

The old man cruelly dropped this sentence and strode away without any room for negotiation. The moment he turned around, a teardrop fell from his eyes that had experienced vicissitudes.

……

"Future? Future, wake up?"

"Asleep? In this kind of place?"

"Isn't he drowned?"

The soul that floated to the sky was finally hooked back by the word "death". Future suddenly opened his eyes, adjusted his posture in the water and stood still, subconsciously replied, "Who said I'm dead."

"Ah? Didn't you drown?" The chief was squatting on the bank, holding a piece of dogtail in his hand, with a happy smile on his face, like a child who found his favorite toy.

Future glared at him angrily, "You just drowned."

"But you couldn't wake up no matter what I called you just now, you couldn't really fall asleep, right?" Yongcang stood behind her, the water level only reached the abdomen, revealing his muscular upper body.

He patted Future on the shoulder directly, and grinned, revealing two canine teeth that didn't match his muscles.

Turning around in the future, it was a naked chest that caught her eyes. She blinked, silently raised her head to look at the blue sky, and pretended to be serious about counting the number of white clouds passing by, "...you should put on your clothes anyway." .”

Seeing that her reaction was not like the other girls screaming loudly, Yongcang deliberately bent down and rolled his tongue and said, "I'm not/not/hanging now."

When Future was thinking about whether to give him a slap or a slap or a slap, Harada put his arms around Yongcang's neck to prevent him from continuing, while explaining to Future, "Don't listen to his nonsense, we all There are those who wear their trousers properly."

"It's really worn." Fujido ran out of the house with his upper body bare, holding a plate of sliced ​​watermelon in his hand.

He put his things on the bank and plunged into the water.

Seeing that they didn't have such a lack of integrity, in the future, he turned his gaze back. When he saw Saitoichi sitting quietly on the edge of the shallower area and the chief executive who picked up the watermelon, he belatedly thought of a very serious Question, "How did you get in here?"

"Of course they came in over the wall." The director general said something similar to crime in the tone of discussing the weather.

Saito said solemnly, "Because no one responded after calling for a long time."

Harada swam to the shore and gnawed on the watermelon, "We thought you weren't here, so we wanted to come in first and wait for you to come back."

"That's right, who knew you were in the backyard, falling asleep on the water." Yongcang laughed loudly, recalling her sleeping face, "It's so cute, floating motionless on the water, like a floating corpse. "

Fujido swam nimbly in the water like a fish, sticking his head out of the water to take a breath from time to time and complained, "It's too shallow, I can't swim to my heart's content, and now I want to eat melons more."

Listening to them talking one by one, a long-lost emotion arose from the bottom of my heart in the future where I thought my feelings were gradually weakening.

Probably anxious.

It’s hard to think about my life experience, it’s too bloody and too sullen [laughing and crying] This kind of thing was popular many years ago, but it’s really embarrassing to write it now haha
