"I didn't expect there was a small island hidden by the barrier here."

Walking from the soft beach into the dense forest and pushing away the shrubs and thorns in front of you, Su Xiao suddenly thought of a famous saying: There is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road.

When you pass through the lush jungle, where the dandelions bloom, the neatly trimmed shrubs form a path that doesn’t know where to go like a maze.

Su Xiao, who left Xiaozhi Island and came out for some fun, became interested and walked into the bush maze.

Su Xiao kept moving forward, white, lilac, light red, and purple flowers scrambled to eye-catching.

Hibiscus flower is a type of deciduous shrub.

However, what Su Xiao knows more is that this kind of flower has the nickname "dead-headed flower", not because of some strange story, but simply because of the unique way of death of the flower.

The way hibiscus flowers falls is that the entire bud falls off the branches. The scene of falling is similar to the ancient decapitation and criminal law, so it is named the Dead Flower.

At the end was a wall blocked by hibiscus flowers. Su Xiao did not pause and pushed the bushes away and walked straight through.

The world in front of me became bright in an instant, and the sun shone in the courtyard, like a layer of warm golden light.

Then, he found himself shrinking—who looked like ten years old.

The sun was a little dazzling, and after adapting for a while, he looked around.

The green lawn blew slightly in the wind, and in the flower bed, red pansy and yellow flower and diamond grass swayed gently.

In the duplex villa, the pleasant sound of the piano was conveyed like a beating elf. Su Xiao unexpectedly looked around. There was such a "warm" home in the barrier of this small island.

Following the pebbled path of the lawn, stopping and turning around, behind the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window without a single stain, the girl's fingers playing the piano stopped.

The little girl was wearing a pure white dress and shoulder-length short hair tied with two small braids on the left and right, looking very cute.

Scream...

The little girl opened the floor-to-ceiling window, and her pure black eyes looked like black gems without any impurities, pure and flawless.

"Who are you?"

The little girl tilted her head and looked at the boy of the same age who was pretty and clean in confusion: "Why did she appear here?"

"I got lost, and then ran here." Su Xiao stared at the little girl: "Who are you?"

"My name is Ruoli, Xiao Ruoli."

"A pretty cute little guest came to my home~" A beautiful woman with a quiet temperament appeared next to Xiao Ruoli, touching her good daughter's little head with one hand, and looking at Su Xiao with a gentle look.

Su Xiao looked at her gentle and quiet mother, she was not a human being.

"Sorry for disturbing me, I'll leave now."

"Hey, little guest~" the woman called him: "Come in and have some desserts, it's a bit too much."

"Ruoli also wants to play with her peers?"

Xiao Ruoli raised her head and watched her mother invite the little guest into the house.

On the sofa, the middle-aged man glanced at Su Xiao who was eating cakes with big mouthfuls, and glanced at the newspaper in his hand. Like a woman, he was no longer a human being.

The woman brought two cups of black tea and placed it in front of the two children.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." She looked at Su Xiao gently.

Xiao Ruoli held her face with her little hands and stared blankly as Su Xiao stuffed pieces of dessert into his mouth, making him look so edible.

"Is it tasty?"

"It's very delicious." Su Xiao's cheeks bulged and he said in a speechless manner: "Your mother made it so delicious."

A smile appeared on Xiao Ruoli's little face, and his voice was soft and soft, with a kind of ethereal and beautiful sound: "Then eat more."

"Is that OK?" Su Xiao stared at the dessert on the table with his eyes wide open.

"Eat more." The woman gently touched Su Xiao's head: "Only you have the strength to play when you are full, right, Ruoli?"

"Yes!" Xiao Ruoli smiled happily.

"The little guy is as cute as our Ruoli." The man put down the newspaper and looked at Su Xiao with a smile.

"Yes." The woman looked at Su Xiao's bulging cheeks and smiled gently: "It's the same when Ruoli is hungry."

"I didn't!" Xiao Ruoli said with her cheeks bulging.

"Hahaha, my Xiao Ruoli is angry."

"dad!"

Su Xiao was eating dessert and listening to their conversation, and his eyes were placed on the newspaper on the coffee table.

New Calendar February 24, 1014.

Everything about this courtyard looked like eight years ago.

"The little guy has a lot of food."

Su Xiao put down the cup with a little embarrassedly: "Yes, I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's a blessing to be able to eat." The woman said with a smile: "You have to digest it well after eating, Ruoli, can you play with him?"

"I'm very lonely if I don't have friends of the same age."

The woman walked into the courtyard with the hands of two children: "Why not go outside and take a look?"

"I don't want it." Xiao Ruoli shook her head in refusal, curled her mouth, let go of her mother's hand and went to the round table, looking at a book on it.

The woman's expression was a little lonely, but she didn't say anything more.

Su Xiao was very interested in the family of three in the courtyard. He sat opposite Xiao Ruoli: "What book are you reading?"

"Dandelion girl." Xiao Ruoli showed him the cover of the book: "Can I read it to you?"

"Uh-huh."

"At that time we didn't know that time was a book that had been written long ago, until the afternoon when we met, in the hill where you and I held hands, the light breeze kissed your dandelion-colored hair......"

Xiao Ruoli's voice sounds very nice, and the ethereal sound of the valley like orchids made Su Xiao, who had eaten and drunk enough, feel sleepy.

"I saw a rabbit the day before yesterday, and it was a deer yesterday..."

Su Xiao was already asleep on the table.

Xiao Ruoli put down the book in her hand, jumped out of the chair and walked to Su Xiao, looking at his cute sleeping face: "A strange person is like a little pig."

She hesitated and slowly raised her right hand and held Su Xiao's hand. The white and tender little hand was visible to the naked eye and penetrated Su Xiao's hand like water flowing through the palm of her hand.

······

Su Xiao felt his hair hurt a little, and he woke up. A little deer chewed his hair like grass. Su Xiao's movement of straightening up scared it away.

It was dusk, and the afterglow of the setting sun enveloped the entire courtyard, covered with a layer of red glow.

The courtyard was quiet, Su Xiao walked into the room, and the sunset shone through the glass, and the red and strange quietness were shining.

No one.

Su Xiao walked through the living room and came to the kitchen, then came out of the kitchen and looked at the dark stairs leading to the second floor, and he walked up.

The corridor was dark and quiet, like a road to the cemetery.

He came to the innermost room and opened the door.

Huhuhuhuhu...

The warm breeze blew from the windows, and the dark red room seemed to be stained with blood.

It was a red glowing gem, and on the walls of the room, talismans swung gently in the wind.

On the white bed sheets shining by red light, a girl in a white long dress was lying, a nineteen-year-old girl, who was Xiao Ruoli.

He walked into the bedroom and came to the desk. There was a spread out newspaper on the table. It was March 2, 1014, the New Calendar.

There is an incident recorded in the newspaper: A strange demon attacks, and the husband and wife of Xiao, the chief and deputy head of Tianyan Sword Sect, died.

There are two photos in the newspaper, which are the couple Su Xiao has met before.

Su Xiao closed his eyes and opened his eyes again. The red light disappeared and the talisman disappeared. This is a girl's bedroom full of warmth and tranquility.

"Why are you here?"

Xiao Ruoli's ethereal and gentle voice sounded, and Su Xiao turned around and said, "I want to play with you."

"Hehe, we're going to feed the fish in the back~"

"Ruoli, call the kids to come down for dinner."

"Come."

Xiao Ruoli grabbed Su Xiao's hand and said, "The food my mother cooks is so delicious."

Su Xiao stared at the little hand that passed through his hand and turned his head to look at the bed without saying a word.

Xiao Ruoli shook her legs under her white skirt and looked at Su Xiao who was eating voraciously with a smile, feeling very interesting.

"The little guy has a lot of appetite."

"Mom, he can eat like a pig."

"Wrong, I can eat more than a pig."

Joyful laughter filled the room.

"Are you leaving?"

"I'm going home too. Mom and Dad will worry. I'll come and play tomorrow."
