Fawn

When Xiaolu entered the adobe house, it was already dark.It was a clear night, and the sky was full of broken silver stars.The deer was carrying a lantern, and the soles of his military boots stepped on the dry ground, making a sound with each step.Followed by Zhang Chunsheng, Zhang Chunsheng was holding a big tray, in which was the food prepared by Xiaolu for He Ruolong.

Under the light of the stars and the moon, Xiaolu walked up to He Ruolong.He Ruolong was sluggish in the night, it was a big hazy group, suddenly moved towards the deer, he moved a series of clanging iron chains.

The little deer raised the lantern above his head, and looked down at him from above.He Ruolong's complexion is not good, his lips are pale.He raised his face against the light, and the light jumped, exaggerating his deep eye sockets and high nose bridge.Staring fixedly at the little deer, he didn't speak, just made a gesture of waiting.

Fawn put his free hand behind his back, and at the same time leaned slightly and moved the lantern to shine on his left arm, which had suffered a gunshot wound.The left arm was wrapped in layers of coarse cloth strips used by the military doctor, and the details of the wound could not be seen clearly, only a large piece of purple-black blood was condensed on the surface of the bandage.

Xiao Lu had seen enough, straightened his waist, turned his face to the side, and raised his chin to Zhang Chunsheng who was behind him.Zhang Chunsheng stepped forward knowingly, put the large tray in his hand in front of He Ruolong, then lowered his hands, and left the door without saying a word.

The little deer knelt down on one knee straight as it was during the day, put the lantern beside him, and stretched out his hands to straighten the tray on the ground: "Eat a little!"

He Ruolong lowered his eyes to look at the tray, and saw a bowl of brown rice, a bowl of clear soup with vegetable leaves floating in it, and a bowl of fried potato chips.The two chopsticks were neatly placed on the side of the tray, even with the ends.

Laughing suddenly, He Ruolong asked softly in a weak voice: "If you're so particular, is it a meal?"

Fawn stared at the tray: "No, it's just your dinner."

He Ruolong nodded: "It's not even a little meaty, I don't think it can be a meal with a severed head."

Then he picked up the chopsticks and picked up a lump of rice and sent it to his mouth.His left arm was completely immobilized after being treated by a military doctor, and his right wrist was also shackled, and the iron chain bound him three layers from the left to the right, making him almost sit still and unable to move, wanting to eat To eat food, one has to bow deeply and bow one's head.However, when he leaned over, the wound was touched, the pain caused him to take a breath, and he froze immediately, he didn't dare to chew for a while.

Seeing this, Xiao Lu subconsciously reached out to pick up the rice bowl and brought it to him.

He Ruolong was obviously stunned for a moment, holding the chopsticks and looking up at him.After receiving such a look from him, Xiao Lu suddenly felt very guilty, suspecting that he had lost his composure in this behavior.But the bowl has already been picked up, and there is no reason to put it down for no reason.The eyelashes cast trembling shadows on the cheeks, Xiaolu felt that he had a fever in an instant, and his neck and ears were all burned red.

At this time, He Ruolong took his hand and lowered his head to take a mouthful of rice.Chewing and swallowing the rice with his mouth in his mouth, he immediately pushed the vegetable bowl in front of him with his hand, and said in a low voice, "Excuse me."

Xiaolu put down his rice bowl and picked up his vegetable bowl.After he emptied the two big bowls with one mouthful of food, Xiao Lu brought the bowl of soup to his lips again.

This time the chopsticks were no longer needed, He Ruolong moved his lips to the side of the bowl, and gulped down a few mouthfuls of soup.Immediately raising his head, he looked at Xiaolu and said, "Thank you, I'm full."

Xiao Lu put down the bowl, and looked sideways at the lantern beside him.The light is stable, the flame is long, and it can be quietly lit all night.

His eyes slowly turned to He Ruolong, and he said, "Tell me, will your subordinates come to rescue you?"

He Ruolong shook his head: "It's hard to say."

The little deer asked again: "If they abandon you, is it necessary for you to die to protect them?"

He Ruolong replied: "They abandoned me, it's their business; I save them, it's my business. They are them, I am me."

After hearing this, Xiao Lu stood up slowly, and walked back and forth in front of He Ruolong.

Finally, he stopped and turned to He Ruolong, who suddenly said: "Your words show that you think you are different from them."

He Ruolong raised his head and followed Xiao Lu thoughtfully.

Xiaolu put his hands into the pockets of his military trousers, and frowned slightly: "He Ruolong, you don't look like a bandit. If I saw your face in the early morning, I might suspect that I am chasing the wrong person. "

He Ruolong smiled: "Bandit is not a decent identity, it doesn't look like a bandit, isn't it good?"

Xiaolu stared at him: "Knowing that bandits are disrespectful, why do you still want to be a bandit?"

After saying this, Xiao Lu wandered around the room on his own.At the end of the walk, he stopped in front of He Ruolong and spoke again: "I checked your pistol, and you only have one bullet left. If I hadn't taken your gun at that time, who would you leave your bullet for?"

He Ruolong seemed to be a little interested: "If you were me, who would you leave it to?"

Xiaolu replied without thinking: "Myself."

He Ruolong shook his head in disapproval: "I will leave it to you."

Xiaolu reminded him: "You once had this kind of opportunity."

He Ruolong lowered his eyelids, as if he wanted to smile bitterly: "Yes, if I had moved a second faster at that time, I would have opened your head."

Xiao Lu asked, "Why didn't you shoot me directly?"

He Ruolong sighed, the sigh was a helpless smile: "Because..."

He hesitated for a while, and finally looked up at the deer, and continued in a low but clear voice: "Because, I never thought that when I turned around, I would see such beautiful big eyes."

As if mocking himself, he looked down at his right hand: "I'm scared by you."

Xiaolu stared at him for a long time, and finally said: "He Ruolong, don't make fun of me."

He Ruolong sighed again: "That's right, it sounds like a joke. I really regret that I dared to kill people, but I was scared by a pair of big eyes."

When Xiaolu heard this, he felt that the house couldn't stand up.He hates and is most afraid of being judged by others. He Ruolong is endlessly emotional about the size of his eyes, which makes him so embarrassed that he almost becomes angry from embarrassment.

Before becoming angry, he turned back on the spot and fled in a hurry.
