"Malost? Maloster?" Nosley called to Maloster as he walked along the rose bushes.

"I'm here, Northley." Manloster suddenly came out from the shadow beside him, his face looked a little pale under the moonlight, and the pair of blue eyes that were exactly the same as Morton reflected Northley's figure.

Nosley walked over, smiled, and said, "What did you do today? Why didn't you show up after looking for you for a long time?"

Manloster suddenly hugged Nosley's waist and buried him on Nosley's chest. He looked up and saw the hickey hidden in Nosley's collar, as well as the two dazzling small holes. Even though they healed quickly, now all that's left is the blood scabs.His face changed indistinctly, and he said, "Nosri, can I ask you a question?"

"It's all right, child." Nosley said, patting Manloster's head lightly.

Manloster asked in a low voice, "Do you love your father? Really?"

Nosley looked up, the sky was very dark in the night sky, if it was daytime, it must be a rare and wonderful sunny day.The full moon hung above, and a cloud floated over gently, gradually covering the moon.

He hugged Manloster, put his chin on his shoulder, closed his dark green eyes, and said slowly, "I think you can tell that after you know me and your father after the story."

One night in late March 1820, the weather finally began to warm up, and the green leaves on the branches were long overdue. The cold winter finally passed. People in Lockree County, England, were lamenting that this winter was too long, but fortunately, God finally Willing to give warmth to his people.

With spring comes a little life in the Brown family.

Mr. Brown is the pastor of a church in Hud Town, Locrery County. He listens to the prayers of the people in the town every day in the church, and serves his Lord with the most pious heart.He already has three daughters. Although he likes the considerate and well-behaved daughters very much, he has always hoped to have a son. He can teach his son to read the Bible, raise him up, and let his son inherit his mantle.

Fortunately, Mrs. Brown successfully brought this little hope here.

The eldest daughter of the Brown family, Bessie, was eight years old at the time. She had a pair of dark green pupils similar to her father, and her chestnut hair was combed into two beautiful whips on her shoulders. She looked curiously at the little brother who was being held by the nurse, At that time, he hadn't been able to open his eyes yet, his skin was red and wrinkled, and to be honest, he couldn't be called cute.

Bessie was a little sad, and quietly said to Lina, the second daughter of the Brown family, who was only six years old, her sister: "Oh, my God, it's unimaginable, our brother is so ugly."

Of course, Mr. Brown didn't think so. He took his son from the nurse, shook his son gently, and said, "He will definitely be an excellent pastor in the future." Flashing past a name he had read in the Bible when he was young, he quickly hugged the child to see Mrs. Brown who was still lying on the bed, and said excitedly: "This child is called Northley! Northley Brown. Oh , Lord, this must be your reminder to me."

"Nosri" is one of the angels serving God. His name is rare, and it is difficult for people to think that he is also an angel. He is very ordinary, but he is in charge of joy and love in dreams.

Since the day Nosri was born, he has been placed with hope in this way.

But when he was eight years old, an accident happened to him.

It was another winter. After having a warm dinner, the Brown family was resting in the living room. Someone hurriedly knocked on the door of their house. It turned out that an old man in the small town died suddenly. Adding firewood to the fireplace, Mr. Brown hurriedly called him, when there was light snow in the sky, the two went out to say prayers for others.

Mrs. Brown then went back to the bedroom, and the living room was suddenly deserted.

Four kids decided to play hide and seek.When guessing the number, the third daughter Liya lost. She should have been the "ghost", but she was not happy. When it's your turn, I'll change with you again."

Nosley Jr. agreed.Bessie took a piece of cloth and tied Nosley's eyes firmly. There was darkness in front of him, which made him feel a little frightened. He stretched out his hand and groped around, only by the voices of his sisters to distinguish. Only then slowly move your feet in the direction.

After a while, he heard the second sister Lina's very slight voice from his front left, and walked towards that side. It was at this moment that the accident happened—he tripped over something on his foot, and then The whole person rushed forward, he heard the screams of his sisters first, and then felt the severe, burning pain on his face, but he himself was so painful that he couldn't make a sound.

Because the manservant had forgotten to put back the fire-proof partition of the fireplace when he left with his father in a hurry.

Nosley just fell into the blazing fire. Mrs. Brown almost fainted from fright. She hurriedly asked the servant to call for a doctor, and then gave Nosley timely emergency treatment. Unfortunately, the snow fell more and more that day. Big, the road is not easy to walk on a snowy night, and it took a long time for the doctors in the small town to come to Brown's house.

He had a high fever because of a wound infection.

That night, when he woke up from the pain of the wound, he opened his eyes. In a blur, he saw Bessie kneeling under his bed, her hands clasped tightly on her chest, trembling and crying: "God, forgive me, Nosley, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Although the news was brought to Mr. Brown who was outside as soon as possible, but at that time, he was only halfway through his prayer work, and he waited until midnight before returning home.

Although the careless manservant was dismissed and Bessie, Lina and Leah were punished, the tragedy could not be prevented.Northley, the poor kid has his entire left face burned up, his left ear is scorched and curled up, his left eye is so badly affected that he can't see anything better than his right eye, and there's a permanently dead eye on his right cheek. Indelible burns.

A few days later, when he finally had a fever and avoided death, he looked through the mirror and saw a stranger in the mirror, and he cried, even though doing so would only make the person in the mirror look uglier.

After many years, Nosri will always remember the scorching pain, which is like the fire of hell, as if it foretells the sins that will accumulate on him, and will give him painful punishment in advance.
