With Tsurumaru watching the fish for Liu Xing, it really wasn't burnt.

The fire is just right, the fish skin is crispy, the fish meat is tender, and the environment near the main ball is probably especially good. The fish roe in the belly of these fish is twice the size of ordinary fish. It is obviously not salmon, but it is full of grains when biting.

Liu Xing just finished his meal and it was time for his usual siesta. He began to rub his eyes non-stop, but he still tried his best not to fall asleep. He almost fell off the small stone pier several times with his head bit by bit. In the end, it was the catfish tail. He set up the tent, stuffed Liu Xing inside and slept for two hours.In the afternoon, Mutsumori took Liu Xing, who was full of sleep, to the forest to fetch two litters of rabbits, caught a few snakes, snake soup and roasted rabbits, and a bunch of wild fruits. The group of people who also ate dinner were full of oil.

The night is the highlight.

Probably Liu Xing, who sleeps comfortably and has fun during the day, and who usually goes to bed after [-] o'clock in the evening to listen to bedtime stories, is now full of energy and does not doze off at all, and joins in the fun and sits by the fire to listen to everyone's strange stories.

Summer is about to tell ghost stories—— Tsurumaru Kuninaga said so.

Moreover, in order to see Liu Xing's frightened expression, he specially told a few ghost stories that he had treasured for many years, but things went against his wishes, the daggers were so frightened that they hugged each other and trembled, Liu Xing still looked dazed, as if he didn't understand.

"I'm dead, so I can't move!" Liu Xing frowned puzzled, "I can move, I can talk, I'm not dead!"

Tsurumaru Kuninaga: "..." How should I explain it so that this child can understand the concept of ghosts.

In the end, Liuxing still couldn't get the answer to this question, and felt that Tsurumaru's story was not as good as the bedtime story of Ichishin and Horikawa Kunihiro - the adventure story of Izumi Mori Kanesada was more interesting!

I don't know when this godly lord who has been taking risks will come to Gao Tianyuan?

In the end, Dagger and Wakizasa were so frightened that they covered their ears and fled into the tent. Mutsu Mori simply took out the small wine bottle from his arms and got together with Tsurumaru to drink sake.

Liu Xing knew about alcohol, but she didn't like the smell of alcohol at all, she frowned and hid in the farthest corner, when suddenly, Ying Wan patted her arm.

When he turned around, he saw Hotaru smiling at him, with his index finger on his lips, signaling him not to speak.Liu Xing hurriedly covered her mouth, and was quietly led into the forest by Yingwan.

At some point in the forest, a path was cleared for children only, but that was all. The path was covered by branches, and even the moonlight could not guide it through the cracks, but Hotaru seemed to know this path well. Holding a small flashlight, he led Liu Xing to the depths of this passage.

The passage was extremely narrow, but it was cleaned very cleanly. There wasn't a single branch reaching out to touch Liuxing along the way.Liu Xing was not afraid of the dark, but he couldn't see the road clearly, and was surrounded by the cramped environment, so he was a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, Yingwan held his hand, until the moment he stepped out of the narrow passage, his eyes suddenly opened up.

The quiet lakeside is covered with a layer of hazy gauze by the moonlight, and those glittering lights on the lake are the exquisite emeralds dotted on the gauze, but the emeralds have a bit of spirituality, flying unscrupulously on the lake, sometimes gathering Formed into a handful, sometimes scattered and colorful, compared with the bright and clear moonlight, it has a bit more vitality and vitality.

"Then... that is, what?" Liu Xing held her breath, whispering to Yingwan as if she was afraid of frightening those beautiful creatures.

"It's a firefly." Hotaru blinked her emerald eyes, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, Liu Xing saw a firefly in mid-air land on the fingertips of Hotaru obediently and docilely. The soft light also flickered slightly.

"It's so beautiful!" Liu Xing stared fascinatedly at the faint but dazzling brilliance of the fireflies, "Their lights are so beautiful..."

"The reason why I am called Hotaru is because fireflies will heal my pain at night," Hotaru moved his finger lightly, and the firefly left his fingertips and landed on the brim of his hat, "I said Will show you something more interesting, is it interesting?" He looked at Liu Xing, and without waiting for the other party to answer, he found the answer in Liu Xing's delighted eyes.

Hotaru tilted his head, and said "um" in satisfaction, "That's really great."

He took a step forward, and the fireflies gathered in groups as if they had sensed something, some landed on Yingwan's shoulder, or landed on the big sword carried behind Yingwan's back, and some landed on the tip of Yingwan's hair. , swaying gently with the breeze, the stars are like the moon, surrounding the firefly ball in the center.Only one, slowly and carelessly, landed on the tip of Liu Xing's nose as if giving alms.

Liu Xing was so startled that she didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of scaring away the fireflies, she just held her breath and her face turned red.

"It doesn't matter, it won't go." Yingwan leaned forward and blew lightly on the firefly on the tip of Liuxing's nose, and it landed on Liuxing's shoulder obediently, shrinking and not moving.

"It's so beautiful!" Liu Xing described her feelings with poor vocabulary: "It's beautiful! It's very beautiful!"

He didn't dare to applaud, for fear of accidentally hurting those beautiful fireflies, so he clenched his small fist and waved excitedly twice, expressing his excitement personally: "Firefly! That's amazing! Fireflies listen to you!" Self-care nodded repeatedly, as if he couldn't express his admiration if he was too slow for a second: "Hingaru and Firefly... are both beautiful, both, are amazing!"

Being praised so straightforwardly, it is rare for Hotaru to show a childish look that fits his own image, and his emerald eyes are full of pride: "Isn't it? The best thing is Firefly!"

"You haven't seen them before, because fireflies only inhabit places with clean water, and...their light time is too short. After a week, these little guys will come to the end of their lives." Yingwan's voice There is some regret in it.

Liu Xing asked blankly: "Are they...will they die soon?"

"Yeah." Hotaru waved his hand lightly, and the fireflies left him, and returned to the lake to be dotted with the tulle-like moonlight, which was no less than the star river in the night sky.

Liu Xing was a little bit sad, but also a little bit scared, fearing the word death reflexively.

Hotaru sensed his reaction and touched his head: "Don't be afraid, death is a very common thing."

Liu Xing frowned and shook her head: "It's not ordinary! It's scary!"

Pointing his chin with his index finger, Hotaru thought for a while and said, "Do you know about reincarnation? It means that dead people and things will return to this world in a new way. Just like those flowers in Honmaru, although they will wither in winter, But spring will germinate again.” He snapped his fingers, “It’s a reincarnation after the rain, the sun rises and the moon sets, and the fireflies will shine again next year, which is also a reincarnation.”

Liu Xing is still too young, even if Yingwan gave him an easy-to-understand explanation, he still doesn't quite understand the reason behind it.

He just heard one sentence, seemed to understand something, but didn't seem to understand anything, and asked ignorantly, "Next year... will everyone come?"

"It will come." Only, not this year's them.

Only then did Liu Xing feel happy again, thought for a while, and said: "I...in my family, there is no Lord Shenming!" The family mentioned here is naturally not Honmaru.

"Mom is always away, and mother cat likes to go out too... Only Mr. Chongzi, no matter it is day or night, as long as you open your eyes, you can hear Mr. Chongzi greet me!" Liu Xing said happily, "So...so even if They don't shine and are the best Mr. Bugs!"

"That's why you like bugs." Hotaru suddenly realized.

"Mr. Firefly is also the best Mr. Bug!" Liu Xing said earnestly, "I will accompany you at night and help you heal your wounds...Mr. Firefly is so gentle!"

Hotaru glanced at the fireflies who were lingering around him, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: "Well...they are the best Mr. Bugs."

Liu Xing remembered what Ying Wan had said to him just now: "But they will leave soon," he said worriedly, "Alone is very annoying, very quiet...I don't like it."

He looked at Hotaru, wrinkled his face and asked, "Without fireflies, would you be afraid at night?"

"I'm not afraid..." Hotaru tilted her head, and the fireflies on the tip of her hair danced lightly, "But there may be a little... loneliness."

You can always see them on summer nights.

Heal him and accompany him till dawn.

But the lifespan of fireflies is too short. Humans have at least a hundred years, but fireflies only have a short seven days.

During these seven days, they seemed to be advancing one after another, illuminating his dark night with their feeble lives.

It's some... stubborn little guys.

"Lonely," Liu Xing repeated blankly, "...Lonely."

"What's wrong?" Firefly asked.

"It turns out that this is loneliness..." Liu Xing frowned, and said in a childish voice, "Oh... I understand, I am also lonely!"

It is actually a bit funny for a six-year-old child to say that he is lonely.

But Hotaru couldn't laugh.

He just gave a soft "hmm": "I know."

Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "Can you hold my hand?"

Hotaru grabbed him obediently.

Liu Xing said again: "Can you give me a hug?"

Hotaru gave Liuxing a hug.

Liuxing and Yingwan held hands and sat down on the shore of the lake. After a long time, Liuxing suddenly said sullenly: "When I think that Mr. Firefly is leaving, I feel very sad... Is this also loneliness?"

"This is parting." Hotaru answered patiently.

Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "Parting seems to be more sad than being lonely."

Hotaru didn't say anything this time.

Liu Xing was a little tired from sitting, and asked politely: "Can I sit next to you?"

Hotaru nodded, and the two children leaned together, staring at the lake in a daze.

Liu Xing: "Mr. Firefly is so pretty."

Hotaru made a "hmm".

"Next summer, let's come and see them, shall we?"

Hotaru touched Liu Xing's arm to make sure it wasn't cold, and then said "hmm" again.

The two of them sat together for a while, Liu Xing suddenly asked in a low voice: "We...have we made an agreement?"

Hotaru thought for a while and said, "Well, it's an agreement."

There was joy in Liu Xing's tone: "The agreement really makes people happy! Just now I was sad to say goodbye, but...but now I'm looking forward to seeing you next time!"

Yingwan was at a loss for words, and after a long time, he said sullenly: "But...we will come back next year, and what we will see will not be this year's fireflies..."

Liu Xing didn't quite understand: "Next year... the other Mr. Firefly will come here?"

Hotaru didn't speak.

But Liu Xing seemed to be happier: "They must be very happy to meet Hotaru, and quietly told the other Mr. Fireflies." Liu Xing squeezed Hotaru's hand and smiled foolishly, "So everyone can't wait to see you you!"

Hotaru froze.

"Meeting Hotaru must be Mr. Firefly's happiest thing!" Liu Xing said seriously, "That's why I come to see Hotaru every summer!"

After a while, Hotaru asked in a hoarse voice, "Will they... be happy?"

"Yeah!" Liu Xing nodded her head, her tone was affirmative: "Because... because an agreement is a very happy thing! Yingwan and Mr. Firefly, do you have an agreement?"

"...Is that considered... a promise?" It's just that every summer, he would say to the fireflies, "See you next year."

Hotaru was silent for a long time, stretched out a hand, and a group of fireflies gathered around him.

"...I will come to see you next year." As soon as Hotaru finished speaking, the fireflies flickered slightly, as if cheering silently.

Yingwan turned his head and became happy: "It's really... stubborn."

When the two returned to the camp, they happened to see Mutsu Mori and Tsurumaru who were keeping watch at night.

The two were still having a drink, and they weren't surprised to see them at all, and their eyes signaled them to go to bed quickly and continue chatting.

Liu Xing quickly got into the tent, and found that Dian Dao and Wakizashi had already fallen asleep, hugging each other and snoring happily.

Hotaru followed into the tent, and wiped Liuxing's face with a hot towel.Liu Xing's scratched head shook wildly, secretly looking at Hotaru's expression, but when Hotaru looked back, she hurriedly withdrew her gaze as if afraid of being discovered.

"Huh..." Yingwan suddenly exclaimed softly.

Liuxing exclaimed upon hearing this, and looked at Yingwan suspiciously, and saw that the other party was staring at his shoulder.

Liu Xing lowered his head slowly, only then did he realize that the firefly that landed on his shoulder before had been lying on his body and followed into the tent.

The orange-red flame of the bonfire was weakened by the distance, and the small tent looked dim and hazy.At this moment, the flickering fluorescent light on Liu Xing's shoulder seemed very lively.

The firefly seemed to be aware of the sight of the two, flew up from Liu Xing's shoulder, circled above their heads for a while, and landed on the zipper of the tent.

Liuxing and Yingwan got into the sleeping bag, lay down side by side, staring at the little fluorescent light in a daze.

The two children stared at the firefly for a while, and Yingwan suddenly heard Liu Xing whisper: "A firefly is also very beautiful."

"Ah."

Liu Xing thought for a while, then said: "I'm not lonely now."

"Neither do I," Hotaru raised the corner of her mouth, "When I think about the promise... I can't help but start looking forward to next summer."
