Chapter 4 Fire

"Brother, we will never be separated in the future."

"Stupid girl, how can my brother be separated from you?"

"Uh-huh!"

After responding excitedly, Little Nicole suddenly said to Stone, "Brother, you squat down."

"Squat down?"

Although the stone was a little confused, he still squatted down according to Little Nicole's meaning.

After squatting down, the stone saw Little Nicole take down the drop-shaped jade hanging from her neck.

"Little Neer, why did you take it down?"

"Little Nicole gave it to her brother as a love token!"

In the legend of the colorful cloud fairy, the love token given by the colorful cloud fairy to Liu Yuanzong is a piece of jade.

While the stone felt funny, he moved back.

Seeing the stone hiding, the excitement on Little Nicole's face disappeared in an instant.

"Brother, why don't you want Little Nicole's love token?"

Seeing that Little Nicole was angry, Stone quickly leaned over.

"Who said my brother didn't want it? My brother just had a numb leg, so I moved it.

"Cluck!"

Seeing the stone coming over, Little Nicole smiled proudly and hung the water drop-shaped jade with a black line on the stone's neck.

After stuffing the jade into the stone clothes, Little Nicole stepped back two steps and said with a smile, "Okay, my brother can stand up."

The cold wind outside was still very loud, but when he saw the proud and excited smile on Xiao Nier's little face, Stone felt warm all over.

"Now that the hall has been worshipped, we can go to **!"

"Uh-huh!"

With a response, Xiao Nier smiled and climbed up the small wooden bed.

After the stone also climbed up the small wooden bed, Little Nicole shrank into the stone's arms and whispered, "Brother, tell Little Nicole the story of that mortal and scholar."

"Didn't you just talk about it yesterday?"

"I talked about it yesterday, but my brother didn't talk about it today!"

When Shitou heard the words, he smiled bitterly and whispered the story of the fairy and the scholar in Xiao Nier's ear.

Although Little Nicole has heard this familiar story for two consecutive days, after Little Nicole finished telling the story, her little face still showed an inexhaustible expression.

"Why did you finish it so quickly?"

"Didn't you say that yesterday?"

"Yes! But Little Nicole always feels that her brother is talking a little faster today.

Hearing Little Nicole say this, Stone smiled and gently rubbed Little Nicole's little head.

Little Nicole actually likes the action of the stone rubbing her head, but she still pretends to be angry and breaking free the hand on her head.

Just as Stone was playing with Little Nicole, a burst of firecrackers suddenly came to their ears.

"Brother, it's the sound of firecrackers."

Stone nodded and whispered, "It's the Spring Festival, and every family has begun to set off firecrackers."

Whether firecrackers can really dispel evil spirits and disasters in the coming year, according to customs, every family will set off firecrackers on the day before and on the day of the New Year.

Although Stone and Little Nier live a very hard life, they have also prepared some firecrackers for the Spring Festival. However, they have prepared too few firecrackers, so they can only wait until the day of the Spring Festival.

After the first sound of firecrackers appeared, the sound of firecrackers spread from the small mountain village below to the broken temple.

Although the firecrackers were not put by themselves, Stone and Little Nier were still very excited to listen to the sound of firecrackers in their ears.

"This rang a hundred times. It's Grandma Liu's house."

"Uh-huh!"

"This also rang a hundred times. It should be Grandma Luo's."

"Uh-huh!"

The village is more than half a miles away from the ruined temple. Naturally, Xiao Nier couldn't hear that the sound of firecrackers came from that family. She just thought of someone and said that the sound of firecrackers belonged to that family.

There are 27 houses in the village below, and there are 27 bursts of firecrackers.

After a burst of firecrackers, the wind outside did not seem to be so loud.

Seeing that Little Nicole's expression was a little tired, Stone smiled and said, "Let's eat early today, go to bed early, and get up early tomorrow."

"Uh-huh!"

Little Nicole is not in good health. She was too excited just now, and now she is a little lazy.

The soup in the pot was heated and eaten. Not long after the two climbed to **, Little Nicole fell asleep.

Although the stone is not as easy to get tired as little girl, not long after little girl fell asleep, he also fell asleep unconsciously.

In the middle of the night, the sleeping stone suddenly felt that the quilt was hot and made him uncomfortable.

"Why is it so hot? Is it that the snow has stopped?"

In a daze, the stone didn't think about it at all. Even if the snow outside stopped, the two layers of broken quilts he and Little Nicole couldn't make him feel so hot.

Feeling a little irritable, the stone couldn't help lifting the quilt. As soon as he raised his arm, the stone suddenly opened his eyes.

Since Little Nicole was brought back by her uncle, Little Nicole has been sleeping in the arms of the stone. He is used to the feeling of Little Nicole huddled in his arms.

After raising his arm easily, the stone felt wrong.

"Where's Little Nicole?"

The stone first found that the little girl huddled in his arms was missing, and then found that the broken temple had burned up at some point.

I don't know when the fire started. At this time, the whole ruined temple had been completely burned.

Although the stone has no insight, he also knows that it is very dangerous to stay in the temple when he hears the sound of fire coming from time to time.

However, now Stone can't think about whether it will be dangerous for him to stay in the temple again.

"Little Nicole!"

Then, after the firelight did not see Little Nicole's figure, Stone began to shout.

"sister!"

After getting out of bed, Stone continued to shout while anxiously looking for Little Neer in the broken temple.

The broken temple is not big. The stone quickly searched all the places in the broken temple, including those places that could not hide little girl, but did not find little girl.

I couldn't find Little Nicole, and Stone's mind suddenly went blank.

Over the years, Little Nicole may have starved to death without the care of Stone, but without Little Nicole, Stone might not have been able to support it long ago.

Unconsciously, Little Nicole has become the reason for the stone to live in this world.

Now, Little Nicole is gone, and Stone doesn't know how he should live.

"Cough!"

After coughing a few times by the thicker and thicker smoke, the stone looked for it again in the broken temple like crazy.

"Little Nicole!"

"Cough! Sister! Come out of here! Stop messing with your brother!"

From the two people's little ** to the door, from the place where he usually hides dried vegetables to the side of the water tank, he couldn't find it again, and the stone continued to look for the second time.

"Little Nicole! Cough!"

"Cough! Sister!"

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the smoke is getting thicker and thicker.

After knowing what, Stone's voice was hoarse, but he still looked for it anxiously and shouted hoarsely.

The voice of the stone became lower and lower because of his hoarse voice, but his figure moving back and forth became faster and faster.

That kind of speed is by no means what an ordinary 11- or 12-year-old child should have.

Stone doesn't know how fast his current figure is, let alone how fast he moves, a ferocious ghost mask appeared on his face.

People have three souls and seven souls, three souls set their gods, and seven souls determine their lives. After their lives, the three souls leave the body and turn into ghosts. Ghosts are divided into four types: ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, and ghosts, and the anger of gods and ghosts is the most serious.

The ghost face that now appears on the stone face is exactly a pair of ghost masks with sharp corners.

After the ghost mask appeared on his face, the stone's figure became faster, as fast as a ghost.

"My sister! Cough! Little Nicole!"

When the stone became more and more crazy because he couldn't find Little Neer, the fire was about to burn down this broken temple with a history of more than 230 years.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the beam near the door collapsed because it was burned.

When the stone turned his eyes to the door of the temple because of the loud noise, his eyes, which had been turbid because of madness, suddenly lit up.

"Don't be afraid, sister! Brother, I'm going out to find you!"

As he shouted in a voice that was almost unable to make a sound, the stone rushed to the door of the temple.

When the stone was awake, he did not go outside the temple to find Xiao Nier. Because of Xiao Nier's height, she could not open the temple door at all, let alone Xiao Nier did not dare to go out at night, but now the stone in madness would not think so much.

The burned beam was blocked in front of the temple gate, but there was no beam in the eyes of the stone that was emitting a flame more than four feet high.

After passing through the flames at an extremely fast speed to the temple gate, the stone directly opened the burning temple gate with both hands.

At this time, the strength of the stone in madness is comparable to that of a strong ordinary young man, but after pulling the door, he tried his best but could not open the closed temple door.

"Ah!"

In a hoarse roar like a ghost crying, the ten fingers of the stone inserted directly into the burning temple gate.

The stone pulled the temple gate with all his strength, but the temple gate was only shaken by the stone a few times.

The temple gate is not very strong, but after being burned by the fire, it is even more weak.

In the process of violent shaking of the temple gate, the stone failed to open the temple gate, but grabbed two pieces of rotten wood from the temple gate.

Because the stone put all his strength on the door of the temple, after the stone's two heads suddenly did not exert force, his body suddenly retreated through the flames.

Maybe it was a coincidence that the stone shook the temple gate too violently. As soon as the stone stabilized its body, a burning wood fell from the top of the temple and hit him in the face.

The ghost mask on the stone face looked extremely ferocious and strange, but it did not block the burning wood for the stone.

Bum!

The wood blinded the stone's head and made him wake up for a short time.

In this short sobriety, the stone only felt the piercing pain in his hands and face; after the short sobriety, the stone completely forgot the pain in his hands and face, and rushed to the temple gate.

As he inserted his hands into the temple gate and pulled the temple gate hard, the stone shouted "Little Nier", but he knew that he could not make any sound now.

I don't know how many times I shook it. Before the stone grabbed the rotten wood on the temple door again, the temple door was finally opened by him.

After the temple door was opened, the body of the stone shot out of the broken temple like a sharp arrow.

As soon as the stone came outside the broken temple, the broken temple collapsed in a roar.
