Give weak women a heart of steel

Chapter 294 In that golden promised land

The time of dusk is called the time of encountering evil spirits.

The morning time is called dawn.

But at the end of the day, there are not many special names.

Xia Tingfei felt that it was probably the time when life and death were handed over.

It is the beginning and the end.

He woke up from his sleep when the hands on the clock merged into a small sharp sword.

He had no time to worry about what he didn't know in his vague sleep, but it frightened him.

Just looking out the window.

The wind and rain outside became lighter, and compared to the roar before, it was more like the weak gasps of a dying person.

The rain just fell to the ground quietly and honestly from the sky, quietly soaking the dry soil.

He felt that his body was like a rusty machine that had once been running so powerfully. Thousands of people had run on the machine and regarded it as their only job.

However, now this machine can only sit in a shed made of iron sheets and collect dust.

The old gears were full of signs of rust, and the beautiful paint was peeling off in large chunks.

He stood up and looked at the girl next to him.

——She was not sleeping, but had her eyes open.

The light golden eyelashes trembled, and the round eyes were open.

But the light inside was extremely dim, like a candle in the wind.

Xia Tingfei looked at the label above her head. The tasks on it flickered, just like her life.

"Hey, are you okay?"

He pushed the girl's shoulder, her skin was still extremely hot.

It's like a stove.

When the furnace goes out, she dies.

"I can't express how I feel now, I can only feel so powerless."

"This feeling I haven't had in a long time, this feeling I've never had before."

"It's like my head was hit with a hammer, my head is buzzing, but there's nothing I can do."

"This is only the fourth day. We have already decided that we can only end it tomorrow."

Xia Tingfei said in a low voice.

"It's really ugly."

The girl gasped, but this action almost made her pass out.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow."

She repeated a few words, trying to make a smile, but she was unable to do such a simple action.

"Feel sorry."

The girl said: "I may be breaking the appointment."

"I will remember this until ten or twenty years from now." Xia Tingfei said as he helped the girl up.

Get ready to wipe her body again.

But the girl just said intermittently: "At that time, I would have been gone."

It seemed like she was telling a joke, but she was extremely serious.

Silence fell between each other at this moment, and the two people seemed to have run out of words to say.

Xia Tingfei couldn't say anything, he even wanted to command the girl with his love.

However, it was completely useless.

Although Qinghua can control the girl's mind and body, it cannot control the tiny germs in the girl's body.

Although Tiger Eye Meteor can cut off the bodies of seven people in an instant, it cannot cut off life and death.

"Want some candy?"

"Are you talking about such a thing at this time?" The girl couldn't help coughing, and her face became more and more ugly.

"Um"

Xia Tingfei took out a candy with orange packaging from his pocket.

It’s citrus milk candy.

Peel off the hard coating of the candy and place it in the girl's mouth.

The lips were extremely dry, like stroking dry petals.

But the girl is still so beautiful, like a fresh narcissus after the rain.

She stuck out her tongue and rolled the candy into her mouth.

The tip of his tongue brushed against his fingertips, bringing with it a little moisture.

Xia Tingfei stood up and prepared to find some water for the girl to drink.

The girl looked at his back and bit into pieces the candy.

But milk candy is always thick and sweet.

It sticks to the teeth like armor.

She licked it down hard and swallowed it hard.

"If you don't go, it will be over." The girl said.

"what?"

"If you don't go, the wind and rain will destroy those things again."

"Take me away," the girl said. "Go there."

"I understand what she's talking about there. It's her place of death, her promised land."

Xia Tingfei looked at the wind and rain outside the window - and the golden light shining in the wind and rain.

"I always thought I needed to unravel something to get there. But, I didn't expect that there was her graveyard."

Put the glass of water to the girl's mouth.

But the girl just gritted her teeth tightly, like a closed door.

"Don't be like this, sister."

Xia Tingfei said that this was probably the first time he called someone sister.

"Drink this glass of water and we'll set off."

He said: "My promises will always be fulfilled."

"Feel sorry."

The girl said, her dry lips were soaked in the water, and she swallowed the water in small sips.

After swallowing the entire glass of water, her face looked better.

Xia Tingfei was ready to carry her on his back.

"Don't be like this." The girl said. She turned her head slightly and looked at the completely dry black Lolita dress hanging in the corner: "Put on that one. It goes well with today."

She said so weakly.

Maybe it's because it's black, so it looks like mourning clothes.

"No one would go to death wearing such clothes."

Xia Tingfei said, lifting the girl up and letting her sit against the wall.

Go to the corner and pick up this beautiful "mourning dress".

It was as light as a feather, as if it were a girl's body.

Lift the girl up and let her stand against the wall.

Xia Tingfei took off her long dress that smelled of alcohol. The girl's plain white body looked particularly dazzling at 12 o'clock in the morning, during the rotation of the third and fourth days.

"Put your feet up."

Xia Tingfei placed the flower-like skirt under the girl's body, held her slender ankles and stepped on them.

It's like putting on a body.

The black skirt covered the girl's plain body.

This skirt has a waist-cinching style, but it looks particularly easy on a girl.

Even a little empty.

"If other girls knew about it, they would probably envy your good figure."

He told jokes.

The girl smiled softly and feebly.

The girl's arms were put into the sleeves, making them slender and thin.

Pull up the zipper on the girl's back, and a delicate and beautiful doll will appear in the world.

Putting on the girl's shoes, he squatted down.     “Come up.”

As he said this, the girl lay weakly on his back.

He took out the blanket and tied the girl tightly to his body, tying a knot in front of him.

Xia Tingfei hugged the girl's thigh and walked out of the room.

Xicui Village was deserted in the early morning, and the two people walking on the floor looked like ghosts wandering around.

The girl's chin rested on Xia Tingfei's shoulder, and her hot breath brushed past the side of her face.

Xia Tingfei felt that his back was almost burned clean.

He did not leave Xicui Village directly, but first went to find a large raincoat room.

This kind of thing can be found in the warehouse.

It was draped over the shoulders, covering the girl.

Raincoats usually have hoods. Xia Tingfei put the hood on the girl: "Don't die."

"I won't die before we arrive." The girl coughed: "This is our agreement."

"Won't you break your promise this time?"

"No, absolutely not." The girl coughed, but she had no hesitation. She could hear that she was so determined.

"Then let's go."

He took the girl out of Xicui Village.

In just an instant, he was soaked by the rain.

His hair was dripping wet, and water droplets flowed down his neck and into his clothes.

Walk forward with your back bent and your back hunched over.

There was no one on the road, only the bright street lights illuminated the way for the two of them.

Stepping on the shimmering asphalt road, Xia Tingfei pursed her lips tightly.

The girl put her hands around Xia Tingfei's neck, her eyelids half-opened.

The light golden eyelashes trembled like butterflies.

Raindrops occasionally drip on the long eyelashes, like water mist.

Xia Tingfei just walked with his head buried in the wind and rain.

He could even clearly feel that a large area of ​​his clothes had been soaked.

Even the shoes were filled with water.

When walking, there is even a chirping sound.

The steps became heavier and heavier, but the journey was only a short distance.

He kicked off his shoes and stepped straight onto the pavement.

After walking for only a short time, the hard roadside made his feet hurt.

--But it's bearable.

There are two ways to go there. One is from behind the shrine and into the forest.

Another is to take a detour near the nursing home.

Xia Tingfei decided to take a detour near the sanatorium. It was too dangerous to walk into the valley with such rain.

"Turn here."

At the end of the cement road, the girl pointed to the path hidden in the woods.

The soil was so wet from the rain that it would even sink in a little if you stepped on it.

Xia Tingfei's feet and even her calves were gradually covered with mud.

At the beginning, the woods were a little dense.

In order to prevent the branch from scratching the girl, Xia Tingfei had to bend down.

Like a tracker.

The girl's breathing was intermittent, and he had to turn his head to look at the girl's appearance from time to time.

Her face was pale, but her lips were becoming more and more pink.

"Don't worry." The girl said slowly, "I will definitely keep my promise."

"If we really keep our promise, then the date should be tomorrow." Xia Tingfei said this, but it was not a complaint.

The girl smiled and lay on Xia Tingfei's shoulder: "This time, I will definitely keep my promise."

She said so.

Xia Tingfei walked forward a few hundred meters, and the entire space suddenly opened up.

This was the dirt road he was familiar with. The appearance of this dirt road was slightly better.

There isn't that much mud and water, and it's still a bit hard when you step on it.

Walking slowly, he felt his steps getting heavier.

His feet were already covered with thick mud, making it difficult for him to walk.

Finally we arrived near the sanatorium, and it was dark.

There weren't many lights on as Xia Tingfei passed by outside.

The girl looked sideways at the nursing home: "It's strange that there is a sports ground over there. People like us actually have a sports ground."

She smiled lowly: "We people have never used those sports grounds. On the contrary, the doctors and nurses often organize activities."

"However, those parents also like this kind of thing very much. Although they have never used it, as long as they look at it, they feel that we will definitely be happy to use these things. You say, isn't it strange? "

"They just feel that they have done their duty." Xia Tingfei answered.

The rain in front of him fell like strings, making his vision blurry.

There was even some rain flowing in his eyes, making his eyes a little sore.

"It's really greedy." The girl said, "I want to get the gold, but I don't want to feel guilty about it."

As she said that, she just lost interest.

Lying on Xia Tingfei's shoulder, he looked at the empty front.

Xia Tingfei could feel the girl behind him, and her heartbeat was like a violent war drum.

In fact, he could already hear the girl's heartbeat.

Walking along the perimeter of the sanatorium, Xia Tingfei could see violent streams flowing in the valley, and the turbid water was mixed with soil and sand.

Even dead branches and broken trees were among them, smashed against the rocks.

"If we were walking in the valley, we would probably be like these rotten trees now." Xia Tingfei said.

"That would be fun, wouldn't it?"

The girl said this.

The closer she got, the more excited she seemed to be.

Xia Tingfei couldn't help but turn his head and look at her. The hair on her forehead became a little heavy because of the rain.

But there is rose pink on the pale cheeks.

Even her body temperature was gradually lowering.

——If it was in the room, Xia Tingfei might be very happy.

However, this is not the case.

She was clearly on the verge of death.

"All I can do is get there as quickly as possible."

Xia Tingfei quickened his pace, and he quickly shuttled through the woods.

He even almost tripped a few times, but he just staggered and held on to the trees next to him to steady his body.

"Put me down." The girl said, "I can probably walk again."

"However, her body is weak. I can even feel that she is so slender, so light, and so weak."

"But, we only have this raincoat." Xia Tingfei said, "If you can carry me on your back, I can put you down. However, I am very heavy, probably beyond your imagination."

The girl didn't speak, she just lay silently on Xia Tingfei's back.

She raised her head with all her strength, as if looking at the golden shining land hidden behind.

It is also her Promised Land.

It was as if she had already seen it.

Xia Tingfei found a wooden stick as a crutch and held it in his hand. Although the soil was soft and rotten, the crutch could still play some role.

——Finally, when the wind and rain stopped.

The horizon is dazzlingly white.

At this dawn, two people came here.

They stood in front of a brilliant field of sunflowers.
