Chapter 164 Chang'an Snowstorm
Winter is the end of the old year and the prologue of the new year. For most ordinary people, this winter night should be immersed in the joy of reunion and share the gains of the year with their families who have returned from all over the world. However, the prerequisite for reunion is to have family members. Obviously, not everyone can enjoy this warm joy.
In the desert, the wind and sand are shrouded in Chang'an City, the faint and dim lights shine on the corners of the alleys, and a few ragged wanderers are searching for food in a pile of garbage. They are all abandoned children left behind by population migration. They have no home, no relatives, and no one cares about their lives or death.
These children who usually don’t have enough food to gather together to keep warm. On this cold winter night, they could only pray that the soldiers of the Immortal Army could dump the remaining food into the trash can so that they could enjoy a full meal. Soon, a child fell over some chicken bones in the garbage dump and immediately quarreled over the distribution issue.
"Da...Da...Da..." At this moment, the crisp sound of high heels came into the alley, and the sound was getting closer and closer to them. The children who were still quarreling immediately united, stood in front of the garbage dump and sang their teeth and claws, telling the visitor that this was their territory.
The dim light illuminates the charming and slender figure. The proud queen is dressed in black and her long white hair reminds people of the pure and beautiful winter snow without any flaws. With the evening breeze, her scarlet red eyes are so deep against the dim street lights that they cannot forget and are obsessed with.
Sethia slowly walked to the children, holding a basket in her hand, and she gently placed the basket on the ground. The children looked at me, I looked at you, and finally hesitantly lifted the cloth above the basket.
A scent of food came to my nose. Although there were no luxurious big fish and meat inside, there were soft and fragrant rice, green and attractive vegetables, and the fragrant meat. The hot white mist seemed to dispel the dampness and coldness of winter.
The children could hardly believe everything in front of them. They looked up at Sethia. The dim light quietly put on her a layer of gorgeous clothes, like an angel landing in the mortal world, holy and charming, spotless.
Sethia turned around and looked at the distant city wall of Chang'an and left silently: "Eat, the city gate has been opened. You are not soldiers. After eating, leave here, go as far as you can, don't come back."
"Sister..." The child's trembling voice stopped Sethia's steps. He hesitated for a while and said shyly, "Are you sent by God to help us?"
Sethia raised her head and stared at the beautiful night sky for a while. A helpless curve appeared on the corner of her lips, and she said calmly: "I am its enemy."
...
The Chang'an City Tower, from a distance from the height, the desert border is shrouded in the night, with wind and sand, shadows and heavy lights. The scattered lights bloom in the dark night, and dotted with wisps of frosty snowflakes.
At the edge of the city tower, Luo You stood alone, his eyes staring at the West full of crisis, but looking at the distant sky. His eyes seemed to penetrate the night, staring at someone far away...
The cold wind blew, and the soft hair stroked Luo You's face from time to time, making it a bit desolate under the hazy night.
Sethia came behind Luo You, took off her coat and put it on him, and said softly: "Don't you go and have some rest? It may be difficult to have time to rest tomorrow."
"I don't want to dream anymore." Luo You shook his head, and a sad curve was pulled out of the corner of his lips. "Every time I dream about her in a dream, I'm tearing apart by the reality after waking up from the dream. I really don't want to experience that feeling of powerlessness again."
Sesia walked to Luoyou, reached out to put her hand gently on his face, and said gently: "Don't forget that you are not alone. Maybe you were, but now you are not."
"Dong...Dong..." Time is approaching midnight, and the countdown bell is coming from Chang'an City. Today is December 31, 2019. Soon, the world will move towards a new year and a new beginning.
It seemed as if in order to set off the beautiful atmosphere of the New Year, the snow drifting in the sky began to grow bigger. The snowflakes slowly fell from the sky like white elfs, falling on the ends of the hair, on their faces, and on their bodies... Today's night sky is beautiful. Even with dark clouds, the bright moon still penetrates the gaps, blooming charming light in the night sky, pure and brilliant, quietly illuminating the city.
Sesia gently held Luo You's face and looked at him affectionately: "I won't let you be alone. No matter what you will encounter on the road ahead, I will accompany you."
The countdown for the New Year has come to an end, and the bells are getting louder and louder. When Sesia kisses, Luo You's red eyes look a little confused, and she kisses back at a loss. After the deep kiss, Sesia leans over to his ear and smiles: "I love you."
"What a heavy word." Luo You gently pressed his forehead against Sethia's shoulder and whispered, "So too."
Sethia's eyes smiled into a crescent moon and said with an interesting look: "Do you want to hear something fun?"
Luo You raised his head and asked, "What?"
Sethia tapped her red lips into Luo You's ear and whispered: "I'm pregnant."
Luo You's body trembled and looked at Scia in disbelief. Fengxue stroked her face and smiled faintly appeared in the haze. Luo You unconsciously covered his mouth with his hands, with a layer of mist in his eyes.
Sethia hugged Luo You and showed an intellectual smile: "Her blood is connected to me, and I can feel that it is a daughter."
Luo You cried with joy and said tremblingly: "Xiao Wei is going to have a niece..."
"Don't be too happy too early~ This child inherits our genes. She will have the ability of you and me at the same time, which is stronger than the two of us combined." Sesia pinched Luo You's face and said with a smile, "If she becomes naughty at that time, you may not be able to cure her. When she grows up and reaches the rebellious stage, beating you will be like playing."
Luo You laughed out loud, and he knelt on the ground, hugged Sethia's waist tightly, pressed his ears to her lower abdomen, and closed his eyes and listened to every movement of the child in his abdomen.
The snow was still falling and landing on the shoulders of the two, as if they were wearing a layer of white clothes for them. The last bell dissipated and there was no sound around them.
I don’t know how long it took, Luo You hugged Sethia tightly, and his voice broke the last silence: “Promise me, live..."
