Living Up to You

Chapter 1

Views:

I heard from my brother that there was a strong wind on the night she was born, and the thatched roof of the house was lifted, half of the big trees in the village fell down, and many people who used to bully him were crushed to death. A man who is rewarded for evil.

Therefore, when the villagers accused her of being a disaster, my brother believed that she must be his rare blessing, buried his mother who had died after giving birth, and left the dilapidated village overnight with her in his arms.

After ten years of wandering, he took her to wander around the world, making his home all over the world.

The reason why I say lingering in the world is because my brother always said in her ears that if it wasn't for her, he would have gone to the heavens long ago.

At this time, she would always pull the hem of his clothes and show him her simple and honest smile. The elder brother would touch her head, smile like crescent moons with his eyes, and show his white teeth, and say without any sincerity: "Don't worry, I'll take care of you until you're fifteen and I'll get married before I leave. "

As for the family in the world, it is easy to say, as chic and elegant as a knight in the rivers and lakes. In fact, the pain in it, every time I talk about it, my brother will always pinch her left cheek and lament loudly that the misjudgment back then, a mistake that caused eternal hatred, now Now, it's impossible to get rid of her.

This is strange to say, no matter where my brother takes her, within half a year, something will happen there, either a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, and even unimaginable things like river surges and floods in winter have happened.

As time passed, it was unknown who "could break the secret". Rumors spread in many towns and villages that if you saw a handsome man who looked like a banished fairy with a silly girl, you must spare no effort to drive them away as soon as possible, otherwise, at least The whole village is seriously ill, and in severe cases, the whole village is killed! Because that silly girl... is a disaster!

When she heard this from her brother, she frowned and twisted her hair from the east of the sunrise to the east of the moon without thinking of a reason.

In these years of frequent natural and man-made disasters, she happened to settle in those places just by chance, and before she even had the idea of settling down, the disaster had already happened. She doesn't think she has the earth-shattering ability to attract all kinds of gods and ghosts... Moreover, no matter how big a natural disaster or how tragic a man-made disaster, her brother will always take care of it. In the towns they passed, few people lost their lives. These people are not grateful His brother and sister are just two people, and they run on everywhere, saying that "if it is serious, the whole village will die".

After three days of tossing and turning, she finally figured it out, the so-called rumors must have been said by her brother to tease her. Outsiders would not say that he is "handsome and looks like a banished fairy", and they would not just use the simple word "stupid girl" instead of her.

From childhood to adulthood, when other people arrange her, they will definitely say "that ugly and silly girl", "that ugly idiot" and the like. Anyway, "ugly" and "stupid" are inseparable.

Once she couldn't bear it anymore and asked her brother, am I ugly

The elder brother touched her head and said, "It's not ugly, it's ugly in the hearts of the world, so the eyes are dirty, and it's ugly when you look at people and things."

She continued to ask, am I stupid

The elder brother still touched her head, smiled like a pool of warm water in spring, and said, of course he is not stupid.

Her reaction was always slower than her brother's. Only then did she think of his brother's last question, and she nodded in a daze, "Well... so in their eyes, my brother is also ugly."

She clearly saw the corners of her brother's upturned mouth twitching, and the smile on his face trembled inexplicably. She continued to respond to the next question, nodding and smiling, and said, "Well... I don't think I'm stupid either."

The corner of the elder brother's mouth continued to twitch, and he glanced at her, "A fool never thinks he is stupid..."

So she hasn't quite figured out the answer to the question of whether she is "stupid". In fact, according to what my brother used to say, she just lost a "string" in her head.

Closer to home, whether the rumor is true or not, she just follows her brother. My brother said they had to go, so she followed him, and my brother said they could stay, so she packed up the house as usual. It's just that the two people's "fame" has spread far and wide, many places can't even enter the city gates, and the villages are driven out after entering the village.

Until a year ago, in a small village near the Cangjia Mountain near the East China Sea, perhaps because it was too remote, the two of them moved in smoothly, and they didn't see any vision after living there for a year. Just when she happily tugged at the corner of her brother's clothes and asked him if he could stay here in the future, the situation took a turn for the worse.

The direct result of the sudden turn of events was that my brother lay on the couch for three days and nights, and the villagers who had been living in harmony for a year turned their faces overnight, holding up kitchen knives, carrying hoes and carrying shovels, and surrounded their residences, forcing them to live together. They leave.

"The witch! The witch! Get out of the village!"

The villagers were filled with righteous indignation, but the little "demon girl" tugged on her brother's sleeve without changing her face, and said coquettishly, "Brother..."

I have been lying on the bed for three days and my back still doesn't hurt... It's okay to tease her, but now I'm being hunted down with a big knife and I still refuse to get up...

"Brother..." She continued to tug on her brother's sleeve, the person lying on the couch still had his eyes closed and his face was pale.

"You witch! If you don't leave, we won't be polite!" The head of the village head raised his hoe, looking fierce.

She looked at them blankly and blinked, "The witch?"

Three days ago she was a calamity, yesterday she was a calamity, how could she become a witch today

"The baby of Sun Er's family disappeared last night, and the wife of Liu Fu's family didn't come back after going out last night! The chickens and ducks in the village don't even have any feathers left! Blame me for being blind, and let you, a witch, stay in the village That’s why so many monsters are attracted!”

"Get out! Get out!"

"Kill Jitian!"

"roll!"

Before the village chief finished speaking, the villagers couldn't bear it anymore and shouted.

Seeing that the child sitting on the couch was unresponsive, the village chief stroked his beard, gestured for everyone to be quiet, stared at her coldly and said, "Mr. Zhao, I never kill. Talk about people! But if you continue to pretend to be crazy and foolish and refuse to leave, in order to keep the village, I can't help it!"

The little "demon girl" continued to frown, "I'm not a demon girl."

"He knows sorcery, what are you not a witch?" Village Chief Zhao pointed his hoe at his brother on the couch.

The little "demon girl" blinked again, and it took a long time before she slowly said: "I'm not pretending to be crazy."

In fact, her reaction was not only slower than that of her brother, but also slower than that of all normal people.

When Village Chief Zhao heard her answer, she was furious. He waved his hoe and shouted, "Burn it! No one will be left outside the village!"

"Brother, that's not sorcery!" Apparently, the little "demon girl" only reacted to the village chief's third sentence when everyone was about to start lighting the fire. She jumped up from the corner of the bed, her face flushed with anger, "You guys Where did you see what kind of black magic my brother used? My brother is obviously martial arts! He got sick to save you, and you will repay your kindness, you are the monsters!"

Village Chief Zhao was even more annoyed when he heard the words, "Burn!"

The house is a thatched hut, and it is easy to start a big fire with a little fire.

"Brother..." The little "witch" anxiously shook her brother's arm. The fire almost boiled the blood in her whole body, but the brother lying on the couch still didn't respond.

She always believed that her elder brother was omnipotent, and took her away from home, carrying the infamy, no matter natural disasters or man-made disasters, he could always find a way to solve them while talking and laughing, and finally knocked her on the head and lamented, "A mistake is a mistake." Eternal hatred", dragging her little hand to change towns to make a living.

So when she saw her brother lying on the couch that day, she thought he was teasing her again. For three days, she had always believed that her brother was playing games with her. Even just now, when the fire was ignited, she thought that her brother's joke could not go on anymore, and it was time to get up and take her away.

But no.

Her hand gradually became cold, but her brother's wrist was hot.

He was always lying there motionless, not like before, when he saw her panicked expression, he pinched her face and laughed at her, saying "the face is crooked with fright".

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the cold wind blowing through the wall chilled her whole body. She grabbed her brother's hot wrist, trying to pull him up.

The elder brother always laughs at her. He has a small body and a small head, but he is stronger than him.

All her strength is still useful. In the past, it was her brother who saved her, but this time it was her turn to save her brother.

The little "demon girl" tried her best to move her brother onto her ten-year-old body, with a forced smug smile on her face, "Brother, I will take you away this time."

The scorching heat wave mixed with the coldness of winter hit the night wind strangely. The originally peaceful village suddenly heard screams, and then the screams turned into screams. The little "demon girl" was so focused on fleeing away from the flames with her brother on her back that she didn't hear the shouts in her ears. When she went out, she was so frightened by the scene in front of her that she almost sat down on the ground.

About half a month ago, my brother told her not to go out. She has always listened to her brother, and has never stepped out of the house since then. I only vaguely heard that there were monsters in the village. At first, only poultry disappeared and died, and then they gradually became villagers.

Three days ago, my brother said that he went to solve some things, and when he came back, he lay on the bed and never got up.

Since it wasn't her elder brother who was joking with her, then, what made the omnipotent elder brother fall down...

monster.

It's really a monster!

In a neighboring village in the East China Sea, heavy snow, which is rare in a hundred years, cuts the dark night into various shapes, turning into fangs and claws, laughing and picking up the villagers running on the ground to tear and devour them at will.

The pure white snowflakes were stained with dark red blood, and the once quiet village was like a hell on earth, with all kinds of tragic cries one after another.

The little "demon girl" was completely frightened, her small body didn't respond for a while in the cold wind and snow, she just opened her eyes wide and watched the bloody scene in front of her, and turned her little head for a long time before thinking of a problem.

what to do

It was always her elder brother who protected her. Now that her elder brother has fallen, are they going to be swallowed by those monsters

I don't want... I don't want to be eaten, what else can I do

The little "demon girl" felt a headache, but what her brother said before suddenly flashed in her mind.

Cangjia Mountain is the place where immortals live.

"Go to the west! Go to Cangjia Mountain!" She shouted at the fleeing villagers.

Since there really are monsters in this world, maybe there really are gods. Of course the only ones who can drive away the monsters are the gods on Mount Cangjia...

Look, she's not stupid, she's much smarter than those villagers who flee into the monster's bloody mouth!

However, the whole village suddenly fell silent, and after her cry, even the sound of wind blowing snowflakes disappeared.

The little "demon girl" hadn't reacted yet, and she still led her brother to move westward, until suddenly various laughter, half surprised and half excited, sounded in her ears.

"She can see me..."

"She can see us..."

"How can this mortal see us?"

Old, thin, male, female, all kinds of voices were saying the same sentence... She stared wide-eyed, watching in horror that all the dark figures were approaching her with fangs and claws, the pungent blood in their mouths The smell was almost overwhelming for her to breathe.

"She can see us!"

"She is not a mortal!"

"Eat her!"

"Eat her and swallow her aura!"

"Eat her eat her eat her..."

The little "demon girl" took a few steps back from the stench, as if... wanted to eat her

"No, it's the man next to her!"

"It's him, the one who tried to attack us three days ago!"

"Tianling! The body is dead and the spiritual power has not dissipated. Eat him!"

"Eat him eat he eat him..."

Countless black shadows opened their bloody mouths wide open, and began to gather with teeth and claws, and approached slowly with grinning grinning.

Eat... brother

When she reacted, groups of black shadows rushed towards them with sharp screams, like eagles and vultures aiming at their prey. The hostility in the air soared, and the unspeakable pressure quickly pressed down from the back through the cold breath.

"Get out!!!" Before she could figure out what was going on, she let out a loud roar, and instinctively hugged her brother tightly, protecting his head on her chest.

Her brother, don't try to touch anyone!

Snowflakes fell on Night Breeze's fingertips, making it a little cold. After a long time, she didn't hear any sound, she quietly opened her eyes, saw that her brother was still in her arms, she breathed a sigh of relief, and raised her head carefully.

The innumerable black shadows just gathered at some point and turned into a big black cloud. The sharp claws and scarlet mouth disappeared, only a pair of quiet eyes with a faint blue light, long and narrow, without warmth.

"It" looked at her.
