drunk snow

Today, Honmaru is still full of voices, but it is not for the non-existent inner demon of the God Judge.

The god judge suddenly went uncharacteristically today, and decided not to go out, but to take everyone on a long trip.

It is a joy to see the protagonist recover his former temperament.As long as this is what the inquisitors hope, they will not complain even if they go out with their family without knowing the destination, but they are really curious about where they are going.

But the god judge has always been a mysterious person—even if his background has been heard by the swordsmen as a bedside story every night, he still often uses unexpected tricks.

So they had no choice but to foolishly follow the judge to go out.

A group of people took to the street in a big way, and those who didn't know it looked like a family tourist.

Since leaving the entrance of Honmaru, they have walked through countless alleys and streets, and the destination seems to be some distance away from Honmaru.But the judge just walked quietly, so everyone followed suit silently.

Until they came to an old mansion.

This huge house is located on the street. It has countless floors and courtyards. The gate is luxurious and powerful. It is conceivable that it used to be prosperous for a while, but now the house is covered with black marks and looks dilapidated, as if it is different from the place in the mind. Coincidentally.

California Qingguang was the first to notice the clues.

"My lord, is this the place where you used to live?"

"Yes, welcome to the humble house....Oh, let me correct it, it should be the former humble house."

"This house belongs to my family, and it was originally a residence that matched the silk workshop. Regardless of its appearance, when I was young, it was also known as a symbol of prosperity and wealth. But although it is dilapidated now, it is still Can withstand the wind and rain."

The judge pushed open the heavy door and led the crowd through the courtyard and into the house.

The interior of the house is full of traces of being entangled in flames, which is shocking.

Yizhen couldn't help swallowing his saliva, a memory in his brain that he didn't want to be touched seemed to be about to wake up, but at this moment, the protagonist shook his arm, so that he could return to calmness from the chaos.

The inquisitor went to a wooden cabinet and found a few musical instruments, which were covered with countless dusts. He pursed his lips and gently blew them away. The dust flew all over the sky through the sunlight, making everyone happy.

"After my brother passed away, I was left to live alone in this huge empty house. I didn't have anyone who could listen to me play the piano. Now I'm afraid I'm not good at playing the piano. Even so, would you do me a favor to listen to me play a piece?"

The swords immediately sat down in front of the lord.

The judge knelt down gracefully, rolled up the long sleeves of the kimono, revealing his white wrists.

He slid his fingertips across the strings, slowly tested the sound, and then began to play formally.The beginning of this unknown piece is like a slowly climbing snake, meandering up the winding trees. Although the sound is high-pitched, it is not harsh.

The melodious melody flows smoothly, and the timbre is round and full.It seems to make people live in the floating world, but it is like a bright moon in the sky and a breeze blowing by, and it is more like a bright moon among pines.

The mountains and rivers are like weeping, and the elegant, ethereal, and charming song is exactly the same as the master who played it.

When the song ended, the whole house fell into silence.

At this time, should we applaud enthusiastically or continue to be intoxicated?

The only thing left in their minds is the idea that the god judge is really a beautiful woman.

"This song was my brother's favorite before he was alive, and now it belongs to you. As Qingguang said, since I have become a god judge and your master, in order to respond to your wish to obey me, I think, I You should pay something in return.”

"However, I am actually a person with nothing. Apart from your love and my meager love, I can't give you more noble rewards. I have thought about this for a long time, and finally, I decided to give you what is barely equivalent to it." thing."

The judge took his hand off the piano and pointed to his chest lightly.

"My heart is beating, once bound by my parents, once owned by my brother."

"Now, I want it to live on for you, just like you who donated your body parts to me."

"I will offer my love and my heart. From now on, this heart will beat for you──"

"──Live for you, and live for yourself at the same time."

The scene remained silent.

Only the strings fluttered gently when the wind blows, making a single sound like a bird chirping.

The heart-shattering oath has quietly penetrated into their hearts.

The blazing flame frantically flickered in front of his eyes, almost reaching his eyes.

He has long been accustomed to this, and he can clearly realize in his mind that this is just another thrilling dream.

My brother stood in the middle of the fire as usual.But what surprised him was that this time, He didn't crawl here with wounds all over his body, but appeared in front of him with a familiar appearance from the past, with the gentle smile that once bound him.

"Brother, you are here."

he called out.I saw my brother caressing his cheek with his fingertips, very soft.When the elder brother gently embraced him in his arms.He suddenly found that he could not feel the heat of the flames, but he could feel the soft embrace containing him.

The elder brother called his name softly, over and over again, full of and cherished, with a gentle voice that was no different from before.

After a long time, he reluctantly let go of his hand, pressed a kiss on his forehead, and then turned around and walked into the fire as if he was determined not to look back.

He was already in tears.

"Brother, brother! Don't go──"

He couldn't help stretching out his hands to grab his brother's clothes, but he finally held back and interlocked his fingers tightly.He watched his brother gradually disappear into the sea of ​​flames, and the last trace of his figure flashed across his eyes like a fright, and it disappeared in an instant.

"Ah... brother, in the next life... you must find someone who truly loves you..."

That prayer circulated in the air, and at last it was swallowed up like foam by tongues of fire.

The judge woke up from the dream again.

It was about midnight now.The clear light on the upper tip is already as bright as day, and it is slightly reflected into the room through the gap in the paper door.

He exhaled slowly, and accidentally touched his cheek, only to realize that tears were streaming down his face.

He quickly wiped it off with his sleeve and sniffed.

Although what he had tonight didn't seem to be a nightmare, he probably had to stay up until dawn again because he couldn't fall asleep.

The elder brother came to bid him a final farewell. Does this mean that he will never dream of his elder brother again?

The white rabbit beside the pillow was sleeping soundly, and he gently stroked the soft short fur.

He was about to get up and put on his coat, sit down at the table and write down the dream just now, when the door of the room was suddenly opened gently.

California Qingguang walked sideways into his bedroom.

"Qingguang, can't you sleep? Ah, maybe I woke you up?"

Qing Guang didn't make a sound, just bent over and crawled into his bed, he still had the warmth of being in his own bed just now, he must have slipped over from his room after being woken up, without even making the bed.

"I'm worried that my lord's demons will relapse again. I'm here, so you can sleep peacefully, lord!"

He stretched out his arms and put his arms around the shoulders of the judge, with a look of knowing and knowing.The lord couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Haha. You, you really didn't come here because you were lonely?"

The god judge climbed up from the bed, supported his head with one hand, his loose collar drooped, and his snow-white chest was looming.

Qing Guang shook his head, thinking why he was always subjected to this kind of test, he quickly stretched out his hand to help him.

"I'm just free to do nothing──"

"Haha. Randomly plagiarizing other people's catchphrases is bad behavior."

"My lord, did you smoke again before going to bed? When will you quit smoking?"

"Well, there's no rush to quit smoking. What's more, smoking is used to relieve boredom."

"I really need to relieve my boredom. After all, I'm always idle. Haha."

The two of them just talked back and forth, almost forgetting the passage of time.

The plum trees in the courtyard stopped blooming due to the seasons, and waited silently in the dark night.When the severe winter comes, the plum blossoms will bloom for the cold and snow.Fluttering snowflakes look refined only when they are complemented by red plums, while plums need the assistance of white snow to appear majestic.

Meixu is three points less white than snow, but snow is less fragrant than plum.Only by complementing each other can we get beautiful scenery.

In the future, when the god judge leans against the plum tree with a red paper umbrella, the red plum is still gorgeous and picturesque.

The examiner's smile was calm, elegant and elegant, with such winking eyes.

As always, beautiful and mesmerizing.
