The two children ran all the way, and the man followed closely behind him without giving up. The child hid Dongfang Yaoyao behind the rockery, with his index finger on his lips——
"Shh! You stay here, I'll deal with that guy!"
"But……"
Dongfang Yaoyao was still hesitating, but the child had already rushed out.
When the man saw the child, he immediately stepped forward and rushed forward, only to find that he was alone.
"Where did you hide your little beauty?"
Chasing the child to a corner with no retreat, the man's true nature was fully exposed at this moment.
The child didn't speak, but the man reached out and grabbed her hair. The hood slipped off, and a burned and deformed face appeared in front of him. The man was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
Xiao Yao calmly patted his clothes, did not continue to wear the hood, and walked over with a distorted face——
"What? Are you scared?"
"You-you-don't come here!!!"
The man turned around and ran away, not caring where Dongfang Yaoyao was now as he disappeared in a flash.
At this time, Xiao Yao had a sarcastic smile on his face, put on his hood again, and walked behind the rockery.
"It's okay now. I'll take you to the broadcast area to find your family."
Dongfang Yaoyao felt the very unfriendly power fluctuation and was unwilling to follow Xiao Yao to the direction with the strongest fluctuation. He shook his head and refused to move his legs. Xiao Yao also saw resistance in her eyes, but thought that
It was she who saw her own face and was frightened.
"Just now...did you see it?"
Xiao Yao's eyes dimmed, and he lifted his hood and collar again——
"I don't mean any harm...it's just that that guy is a habitual offender. I've been here for a while, and I saw that he regarded you as a target..."
The girl didn't pay attention to Xiao Yao's face and kept explaining——
"There... there are bad people over there, I don't want to go..."
"Yaoyao? Is this your name?"
The girl nodded timidly - but Xiao Yao laughed.
"What a cute name! My name is Xiao Yao. Since you don't want to go over there, why don't you stay here and wait for me to find..."
"No! I don't want to be alone!" After saying that, the girl hugged Xiao Yao's arm, "My parents have left me! I don't want to be alone!"
In the girl's fragmented and illusory memories, she could never forget the night when her family was wiped out by the Demon Hunters. Her parents pushed her out and sacrificed themselves to become the target of those gangsters, but the still young girl did not
She couldn't understand this kind of behavior. She only remembered that her parents didn't want her anymore. She had to pay a heavy price for wandering and living in desolation all the way to where she is now.
She didn't want to recall such an experience, let alone experience it again——
Xiao Yao was overwhelmed by the girl's reaction, but seeing that her reaction didn't look like she was pretending, he had no choice but to pat her arm comfortingly——
"Okay, okay...I won't take you there, I'll just stay here with you...You're really weird, are you playing house..."
A strong gust of wind blew down Xiao Yao's hood, revealing the hideous burns and reflecting in the girl's transparent eyes. Xiao Yao subconsciously covered his face——
"I'm sorry! Are you scared?" Xiao Yao put his hood back on in a panic, fearing that his face would be looked at again, "I...I didn't mean to scare you..."
But there was no fear or disgust on Yaoyao's face——
"What's so scary?" Yaoyao even reached out and touched Xiao Yao's uneven cheek, "Xiao Yao is obviously so kind and gentle, but it's not too late for me to like you!"
Children can always talk about their likes and dislikes easily because they do not know the weight and power of words, but it is also because of this that they can express their inner thoughts most frankly.
This was the first time Xiao Yao heard that someone liked her after being burned and disfigured. She turned around and covered her face. For a moment, she couldn't control the expression on her face. She was afraid that her already scary face would become even scarier when she smiled.
.
Seeing Xiao Yao turning his head and restraining himself extremely, Yao Yao also fell into confusion - looking at her with his head raised.
"are you uncomfortable?"
"No! I...I'm fine!" Xiao Yao muttered, "Because this is the first time someone has said that to me..."
Peers of the same age who usually play in the amusement park will burst into tears when they see her face - let alone praise her for being gentle and kind.
Because of his ugly appearance, he never even had the chance to get to know her. Because of his terrifying appearance, he didn’t even have the right to be treated gently by the world.
But the girl in front of her was different. She didn't care about Xiao Yao's ugliness at all. Instead, she could see the bottom of her heart through a pair of clear eyes, and saw a clean and gentle soul beneath the ugly appearance.
It was just a chance meeting, but Yaoyao gave Xiao Yao something that he had not fought for for many years. It was like a beam of light traveling through thousands of mountains and rivers and finally shining in Xiao Yao's cold and dark heart.
"Then... let me take you to other places first!" Xiao Yao blushed and wiped his nose - pointing to the other side: "Can you go there? I'll take you!"
Yao Yao didn't even visit the amusement park all over, he immediately agreed and held Xiao Yao's hand tightly. Their palms were touching and they could clearly feel each other's pulse - one was calm and the other was too fast.
"Let's go then!"
"Great!!!"
The two held hands and walked under the tiny sunshine. The brisk pace made Xiao Yao feel as if he were stepping on clouds for the first time in his life. Everything seemed so friendly and cordial.
Xiao Yao took a deep breath and took a step - it turns out that if someone can be so gentle to him, the whole world will seem to become gentle.
"Yaoyao——!!!!! Yaoyao——!!!"
Yan Sha was completely panicked when he discovered that Dongfang Yaoyao and Gui Ming were missing for the first time - he started running around looking for traces of the two people. He couldn't reveal his identity because of his special status, but it happened that he and the two of them were missing.
There is no common code among people, and it is impossible to use broadcasts to transmit information. They can only keep shuttling in the flow of people, and the behavior of shouting loudly also attracts the attention of many people. There are people who want to come forward to ask about the situation, but the words
Setsuna was not sure if these people were those with bad intentions from the Demon Hunting Association, and he did not dare to ignore them easily. So he could only think of continuing to call in vain with his meager manpower.
"Yaoyao... where have you been..."
Yan Sha is not worried about Gui Ming. You must know that he must have gone to help Yaoyao eliminate potential threats. Gui Ming will definitely pay no less attention and care to her than Yan Sha.
Now Gui Ming must have faced off against those people with bad intentions. What Yan Sha can do now is to find Dongfang Yaoyao immediately and protect her immediately.
But the girl seemed to have disappeared from the world and could not be found anywhere. Yan Sha's heart was completely suspended.
On Yao Yao and Xiao Yao's side, the two children found many fun and interesting places based on Xiao Yao's knowledge of the amusement park. Dongfang Yao Yao also gradually forgot that he and Guiming Yansha were separated.
Children, when someone is playing with them, they will quickly forget the most stressful things at the moment. By this time, the two young people had forgotten all their worries.
In the entertainment area with rotating teacups, two children were holding hands and sitting opposite each other. The dizzy feeling made their weightless bodies feel full of happiness, as if they could lose all their uneasiness and hesitation in the shaking.
"Wow--!!!!!"
The two children smiled happily, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with them.
Tired from playing, the two of them sat on the seats on the roadside of the amusement park. Dongfang Yaoyao lay on Xiao Yao's lap and fell asleep. The comfortable expression on his face made Xiao Yao feel faintly proud.
Feeling - at least her unconditional trust in herself makes Xiao Yao very satisfied. In the past, there was no one who could speak more than three sentences, but now he has a friend who can hold hands and play together -
Then she looked at the girl's profile and smiled - they should be... friends, right?
It doesn’t matter if they’re not friends, or even just a dream, as long as you can stay in this dream for a little longer—just a little longer!
But although Dongfang Yaoyao was in a deep sleep, her frown showed that she was not sleeping peacefully——
She was having a nightmare—an extremely real and profound nightmare—
The flames spread like crazy wild beasts in the Dongfang family's mansion, blood spattered everywhere, and howls filled the field, completely destroying the foundation accumulated by a huge demon clan for thousands of years——
Elders, young people, children and even babies, no one is spared in the mansion. Although the Maskless Demons do not have much powerful fighting power, their abilities are extremely coveted and pursued by everyone.
"Dad! Mother!!!"
On the river bank soaked in blood, Dongfang Yaoyao, who was as young as now, stood helplessly on the boat and stretched out his hands to his parents————
Her father is the head of the family, and her mother is also the best outsider. They are a pair of beautiful people. They should be extremely outstanding and dazzling people inside and outside the family - yes, if there was no fire, her father would continue to run the family, and
Mothers also make the best mistresses.
It should have been like this - if there hadn't been that catastrophe!
Tears blurred her eyes and blurred the appearance of the person she cared about most in the world. From then on, for thousands of years, she could never recall the true faces of those two people.
Only the sound is still echoing in my ears, the emotion that is extremely difficult to let go and that I have to say goodbye——
"Yaoyao——Live, you must live...live!!"
The sound of water flowing became more and more obvious, and then the sound gradually faded away——
After that, Dongfang Yaoyao completely lost consciousness, and the only thing that accompanied him was the lingering sound of water and the gradually fading cries and screams.
After that, she experienced even more cruel things, which was also the most difficult thing for her to let go of.
