Coming out to rob travelers when he was hungry was the way this man lived.Kill, kill, kill... until he might one day be killed by someone stronger than him.

The man dug out a rice ball from the traveler's luggage, with the traveler's blood still sticking to it, but he didn't care.As he walked towards the cave where he stayed, he chewed on the bloody rice ball.

"Tsk... Another person who was thrown away."

The man was speechless because he saw an emaciated girl lying on the side of the road.

This is not a rare thing. I don't know which year it started, and the drought began to rage every year after June, and the disease also became popular.The piling up of corpses of starvation and smallpox near this Fengjin mountain is nothing new.

The girl who fell in front of the man was quite different in that she only had a thin pajamas on her body.

"Uh... uh..."

The girl who thought she was dead opened her eyes and stood up staggeringly. It was the girl who walked out of Flower Street attracted by the moon.

"Hey, have you been dumped or have you got smallpox?"

The only answer to the man was silence.

This made the man feel a little scared.A thin girl...with skin that hasn't been exposed to the sun at all, the white skin looks like a monster like a fox, it looks very weird.The man subconsciously grasped the knife at his waist.

"...I don't know...it shouldn't be..."

The girl with vacillating eyes finally spoke.

"So you can talk, didn't you have smallpox? Then what are you doing here?"

The man breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his hands from his waist.He saw the cut scar on the girl's right Achilles tendon, and probably guessed the girl's identity.

"I said, you escaped from Huajie, right?"

"Seems to be…"

The words that seemed to be telling other people's affairs revealed the girl's origin.

"Anyway, she doesn't have food on her body, so there's no need to bother to kill her... A useless person like her will die by the side of the road sooner or later." The man thought so.

"water…"

"what?"

"I want to drink water," said the girl.

"So you're thirsty, and the water is right below."

The man pointed to the cliff beside him.

From here one could only see darkness, but one could indeed hear the murmur of the brook.

"I see that your feet want to go down here, and there is only a dead end."

Ignoring the man's advice, or that she didn't understand what the man said, the girl walked towards the cliff.After a while, the man heard a small scream and the sound of something falling into the valley.

"Ha, didn't I say that?"

The man had no intention of helping the girl, so he sat down on a nearby rock and continued to enjoy his dinner.

……

"Its daybreak…"

The girl managed to grab a branch in the middle of the journey, and dragged her right leg, which had its Achilles tendon cut off, all the way up. The girl ran out of strength.

As usual, the girl closed her eyes.

(Dark world... nothing, I don't know anything, I don't have to think about anything, I don't need to understand anything, I have nothing...)

(I love it here...I want to stay in this world forever...)

The girl opened her eyes at the sound of birdsong coming from nowhere.

What the girl saw was a full moon that was barely visible at dawn.

(If I just fall asleep like this... I don't know what will happen when I wake up?)

(Will I just die like this? Or can I live again?)

(Live again? So, do I live again now?)

Towards the dim moon, the girl climbed up again.

The clear moonlight floated quietly in the air, and the girl desperately crawled towards the moonlight.

The full moon also shines on the summer nights of men and women.The summer night when the two met for the first time.

The man woke up when the sky turned from livid purple to blue.When he saw the girl lying on the edge of the cliff, he was really shocked.

"This guy, didn't he fall into the valley...Hey! Didn't you die?"

The man patted the girl on the cheek, and the girl opened her eyes as if nothing happened.

"Umm...it seems like he didn't die."

The torn clothes and bruises on the girl's body narrated her experience last night.

"Huh! You tough guy, you're lucky!"

"Stubborn? Are you calling me...?"

With the same flat tone, the girl's eyes were focused on one point, a grain of rice left at the corner of the man's mouth.

And the man also noticed the girl's gaze.

"hungry?"

"... "

"Do you want to have dinner?"

"... "

"How do I know if you want it or not if you don't speak?"

"Ah."

Seeing the girl nodding her head honestly, a cruel idea appeared in the man's mind.Perhaps it was the girl who made him survive unexpectedly. He felt ashamed and wanted revenge in his heart.

"That's it~ If you want to eat... just come and get it yourself!"

After speaking, the man put a rice ball in his arms on the ground, and then held the big knife at his waist.

Looking at the girl who was dazed by the side, the man continued: "If you want it, take it from me and bet your life."

The man pulled out the big knife at his waist in one breath and held it high in the air.The early morning sun shone on the blade, and the dazzling light reflected on the rice balls on the ground, and then shone on the girl.

"Umm... I see." After the girl replied, she walked towards the man's feet.

The cool wind blowing up from the valley dispelled some of the heat, and the girl walked over without hesitation.While dragging the right foot that had been cut off the tendon, he walked.

"...I'm going to cut it off!" The man warned.

But the girl didn't know if she didn't understand, so she still walked forward.

"...I will really chop it off." The man warned again.

Then, the girl stretched out her hand towards the rice ball, and the man raised the big knife high.At the same time as the sword was swung down, the sky was also dyed vermilion with blood... This is how things should have developed.

but……

"I got it."

The big knife stopped on the girl's head.

(Why would I stop? I should have cut it off...Even if I don't kill her, let her taste the pain she has to pay to get a rice ball...)

The man asked himself "Why?", while the girl asked him naturally, "Can I eat?"

"Ham..."

Even though the rice ball was stained with blood from the traveler, the girl didn't care at all, but ate it with gusto.

The sound of cicadas echoed in the sky, the summer sun shone on the two of them, the sun shone on the girl's fair face, the heat evaporated like a mirage...

2 chapters eight feet of strange talk (Part [-])

The man did not kill the girl, but the girl followed the man.

It was night again, and the girl was sleeping quietly on the grass not far from the man.

(Shake, shake, shake... Even in the dark world, the body is still being shaken.)

(Neither resist nor speak...just quietly looking at the dark world...)

(I want to stay here forever...close my eyes forever...)

"Xi, Xi, Xi, Xi..." The cicadas chirped.

The man is a little anxious.Maybe it's because the chirping of cicadas is too annoying?No, the real reason was the girl who was sleeping curled up beside him.

The man walked under the shade of a tree to avoid the scorching sun, and the girl dragged her heels behind him.

"What are you doing, who told you to follow me!"

Even though the man chased her away, the girl stared into the distance and replied to him.

"...Because it's so hot."

The occasional cool wind and the sound of the stream from the distant valley always make the man feel comfortable, but now it makes him feel angry.

Obviously, the man was still thinking about why he didn't kill the girl yesterday.

(At that time, I was not mentally prepared. Next time I will definitely not... Next time let her see how I kill people, no matter how stupid people are, they will know what kind of person I am!)

It was another night, when the moon rose on the top of Fengjin Mountain, the long-awaited traveler appeared.

In order to avoid the scorching heat during the day, travelers passing by the top of the mountain at night... are men's favorite prey.

As soon as he passed under the tree, the man jumped onto the road in one breath.

"puff"

Before he could hear the traveler's wailing, the man's sword had already been mercilessly swung down.

As the traveler fell to the ground, another unknown corpse was kicked down the valley by the man as usual.

The girl kept watching the man's routine... No, the man let her see it on purpose.

The girl didn't say a word, and looked at the man with vague eyes.

"You... at least say something?"

"..."

"Who told him to be a useless guy, he deserves to die, is there anything wrong with that?"

The man's voice was full of anger, as if the words were meant for himself.

So... the man repeated the same action as yesterday.He put the snatched rice balls under his feet, then waved his big knife and shouted to the girl: "If you want rice balls... come and grab them!"

"...Umm...I see." The girl replied likewise.

Similarly, she leaned forward without hesitation.

"I'm going to cut it down... I'm going to cut it down...Damn it, I'm playing for real!"

The man yelled, and the noisy barking of wild dogs in the nearby forest echoed the man.

Then, the surroundings returned to silence.

The long shadow of the moonlight was reflected on the body of the knife that the man held high.The moonlight reflected on the cheek of the girl holding the rice ball tightly.

Again, the man failed to make a move.

After a while, the man asked, "Hey, do you understand?"

"...?"

"The value of the life of the guy who died just now is the rice ball you are eating."

The girl held the blood-stained rice ball and looked at the man in disbelief.

"not understand well…"

(Why, why can't I do it? Why?...Weak and useless people deserve to die, that's why I've lived until now, why is she still alive?)

"...cough, cough..."
