Chapter 778 Terrible Thoughts
Through the Hakurei barrier that divides common sense and non-sense...
The air ripples like a curtain of water...
The scene in front of me is also suddenly enlightened...
The location of the shrine does not seem to have changed, the huge Fengshen Lake is still nearby, and the afterglow of the sunset is still the same, but...there are two completely different worlds, there is no doubt about it.
It is also on the mountain, by the huge lake, but the corner of the city outline that is faintly visible under the mountain, the uniform buildings, the skyscrapers, the tram tracks in the distance... etc., etc. The view has disappeared.
Instead, there are vast virgin forests, ancient villages with smoke rising one after another, the crops on the fields fluctuate with the evening wind, and there are waves, and the uneven ridges are like country roads separating pieces of land... …
There are many, many more in the distance——
For example, a vast bamboo forest.
Like a great lake covered in mist.
For example, I don't know if it is reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, presenting a golden color, a dazzlingly beautiful sunflower field.
There is no smell of red dust and fireworks in a modern city anymore, it seems as if you have traveled directly to some ancient time and space, if it is not in the open space in front of the shrine, some lively banquet is being held, and the participants are all dressed in bright colors and styles. Fashion, if not retro...
Then maybe it will really make people have such an illusion.
"No matter how many times I come here, I always feel so miraculous..." Yukinoshita Yono looked at the surrounding environment with great interest, and sighed enthusiastically. "Sure enough, this world is only interesting if there are miracles and magic..."
"I thought you were used to it by now."
Yukinoshita Yukino didn't look sideways, and said in a flat tone.
Although she was slightly unwilling, she also had to admit that her sister was really outstanding. She belonged to the kind of person who was able to shine radiantly no matter what environment she was in at any time. She was almost like a superman.
After all, it took her a while to gradually accept this magical world.
But Yukinoshita Yoshino, except for the day when she directly faced the shattered world view, she inevitably acted a little sluggish and confused... After that, it seemed that only one day later, she had directly changed the world view. Adjusted in place.
Just like now, maybe Ms. Yono knows Gensokyo better than her own sister...
"How could it be? If I really get used to it, Xiaoxue Nai, you will be unhappy again..." Miss Yang Nai took a deep look at her sister, and said as if pointing.
"Why should I be angry?" Yukinoshita frowned.
"Who knows, let's go and have a look—" Yukinoshita Yoshino laughed lightly, and was about to take a step forward, but the words stopped abruptly.
"What's wrong?" the black long straight girl asked with some doubts, she subconsciously looked in the direction where her sister's line of sight was fixed, and then narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Well, why don't we..." Ms. Yoshino turned to look at her sister hesitantly, and wanted to say something, but found that her reaction was a bit slower, and Yukinoshita had already seen the girl over there. scene.
"It's nothing, we'll just go there."
The eyes flickered slightly, but the expression of the black long straight girl did not change in any particular way, she just said something lightly.
Huh?Xue Nai's reaction seems a bit strange... Miss Yang Nai blinked her eyes, is this the calm before the storm?But it doesn't look like it looks like it.
Could it be that something happened during his absence, and their trust seems to have risen again?
……
……
"Actually, I also know that this matter is unavoidable...but..."
Liu Mengli showed a look of grief, her eyes were red, and her starry eyes were full of tears. As she said, she actually made up her mind that day to shoulder the responsibility and leave with her mother to find a way out for the clansmen. when.
She already understood that maybe the parting that day was forever, and there will be no day of seeing each other for the rest of her life...
It’s just that I understand it, it’s really hard to accept such a cruel thing emotionally, because she wasn’t prepared for it at all—who would have known that what was destined to happen would actually become a reality shortly afterwards? established facts.
"I understand, I understand... But Miss Liu, can you wipe away your tears first?"
Xia Ran nodded repeatedly, comforting in a low voice.
In fact, he also has a lot of emotions, after all, he is also a person he knows and is familiar with. Of course, it is impossible to say that he has no feelings, but the focus now is to appease Liu Qianjin's emotions... because from just now Something was not quite right, the atmosphere at the banquet had changed.
All kinds of laughter and laughter can't be said to disappear, but they are obviously much weaker.
It seemed that the air had subconsciously quieted down.
From all directions and even from the sky, all kinds of strange sights were cast one after another, converging on Xia Ran's body, as if they were going to burn him through, the emotions contained in them were meaningful, very different, or curiosity, Either excited, or contemptuous, or thoughtful.
At this moment, probably only those young girls who don't care about it and are immersed in their own world, or those who don't know anything, are ignorant and innocent, still don't care or don't notice the atmosphere of the scene Subtle changes.
For the former, for example, the wind sees the fragrance, the queen is just drinking wine on her own, looking at the scenery between the mountains from a distance, and the three meters in diameter around her seem to be shrouded by her usual low air pressure Then, no one dared to approach.
The latter is a group of little lolitas headed by the strongest Gensokyo like Cirno. They are ignorant of the world and innocent. They are also only immersed in their own world and only pay attention to their own affairs, so they are still bluffing. Huh, smiling and chasing and playing.
It can be said that most of the cheers and laughter at the banquet scene now come from the bluffing of these loli girls.
but……
This did not effectively make up for the stiffness of the scene atmosphere, but instead made it even more weird!
The magician's scalp was a little numb. He was actually worried about such a thing just now. Now it seems that he is not worrying too much, but it is really necessary!Facts have proved that it is not only human beings who have the heart of gossip or the mentality of watching the excitement.
"Miss Liu..."
While receiving the tissue from Charlotte, he carefully handed it to the girl with a sad expression.
However, Liu Mengli didn't raise her head, she just lowered her head and shed tears silently. This incident really hit her a little bit, or it should be said that it was outrageously big.
It suddenly seemed like a dream, and at the flick of my fingers, I was a millennium old man. The voices and smiles of my former friends are still vivid in my memory, and it was obviously not long ago... But now, in fact, it has changed. , like a nightmare...
"Miss Liu, let me tell you, don't cry first, okay, people don't know, they think I bullied you..."
The magician sighed, he had never encountered such a troublesome thing.
He doesn't dare to turn his head to look around now, because he can know it without even thinking about it. At this moment, I don't know how many people are looking at him, with different expressions and eyes, the only thing in common is that kind of looking at people. contemptuous gaze...
Well, of course, it is also possible that they are paranoid and sensitive, maybe they are just watching curiously?He only judges others by himself, that's why he feels that he is being watched by strong crowds and despised by everyone at this time...
Xia Ran thought so with a guilty conscience, comforting herself that the situation is not particularly bad.
He naturally also understands that this is a very normal situation. After all, the current situation is really hard not to remind people of that aspect. After all, a girl looks sad and tears, and the man beside her is talking carefully. But the more you talk, the more miserable the girl will cry...
How can such a scene not make people think?
If it's not good, there may even be a small theater in many people's minds, and they have already begun to perform in the direction of the eight o'clock dog-blood drama!
It's really too scumbag, it must be bullying people!It must be so!
Thinking wildly like this, Xia Ran couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth. He looked at the distraught Liu Mengli. He had never seen this girl who was always calm, calm, and generous would be so sad.
Sighing helplessly, he raised the tissue in his hand and moved it to the girl's crystal-like jade cheek——
"what happened?"
At this time, a calm voice came from the side.
The magician turned his eyes and saw that a long straight black girl in casual casual clothes had come to the side of the long table. Beside her was Ms. Yang Nao, who smiled so brightly that it was like a mask with a smile solidified on her face. It seems that wherever he goes, he radiates the light and warmth of the sun.
Although it is a protective color, although it is a mask for camouflage, but after wearing the mask for a long time, it is actually a real face.
"Well, there are actually very complicated reasons for this..."
Xia Ran hesitated for a moment, then replied.
"Oh, let's talk later..."
Yukinoshita Yukino nodded knowingly, she took a step forward, stretched out a long white and slender hand, with her palm flattened upwards, and said in a calm tone:
"Give me the tissue."
"Ah, no, no, I'm ashamed to bother you, Yukinoshita-san..." The magician reflexively raised his other hand and waved it, and said modestly.
"You really don't need to bother me?" Yukinoshita stared at him calmly, her tone and voice unchanged, as flat as before.
"..."
"..."
"Oh, actually, I just said a few words of politeness just now, and I should trouble you, Yukinoshita, please..."
Xia Ran coughed lightly, he finally reacted in time, and found that his behavior seemed a little inappropriate, so he gently put the tissue he was holding on the girl's still flat palm.
Then, he looked in the direction of Miss Yang Nai next to him, and found that the smile of this elder sister seemed to suddenly become brighter and brighter. After paying attention to his gaze, he also tilted his head and gave him a gentle smile. Blinked one eye.
It seems that the relationship between these two people is as stable as ever, and Xiao Xue Nai is also very stable. In fact, there is really nothing to worry about.
Miss Yang Nai let out a breath in her heart, but at the same time, she also felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. If this is the case, won't the role of her sister become smaller and smaller?The younger sister began to trust another person and depend on another person.
……
……
quickly.
Liu Mengli's mood improved a lot, although the smile on her face was still too sad, and her eyes were still a little red, which didn't disappear so quickly.
The Yukinoshita sisters also knew what was going on, and at the same time, they didn't know what to say.This is indeed a very sad thing, no wonder this girl is so sad.
"Miss Liu, you'd better look away..." Yukinoshita Yangnao hesitated for a moment, and said so comfortingly, even she was a little short of words, mainly because such a matter itself is a very heavy topic. with.
You can't empathize with things that have nothing to do with you.
So no matter what outsiders say, it doesn't make any sense. If they talk too much, there will be a suspicion of standing up and talking without back pain... In addition, she is indeed not familiar with the other party, so she can only say this kind of thing. Dry words.
"Thank you, Miss Yukinoshita...Actually, I know it, I already knew it when I left that world."
Liu Mengli gently wiped away the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, revealing a somewhat sad smile.
"Maybe the fate between people is doomed... When God wants to take it back, it won't even wait for a moment... No matter how deep the feelings are, no matter how sincerely you care, there will still be a day of separation... In the end, how can I defeat life and death..."
"This one……"
Yukinoshita Yang opened his mouth, and suddenly smiled helplessly. Sure enough, this is the huge gap between himself as an ordinary person and these inhuman beings?
It seems that there is not much age difference between each other, why does the other party have such a deep understanding of life!Miss Yang Nai is indeed far more mature and stable than most of her peers, but she is only "stable".
——But the other party's perception is simply "heavy"!
——How does this compare? !
"I'm sorry, I really shouldn't have said these things..." Liu Mengli seemed to have reacted, she shook her head with a smile, and said softly.
"This is nothing..."
Miss Yang Nai shook her head again and again, her heart was shaken for a moment, this beautiful girl who looks like a fairy is really astonishingly beautiful, especially at this moment, the red eye sockets and sad eyes make that smile appear It's beautiful, but it's also really painful.
Even though she is also a girl, at the moment just now, she couldn't help but feel her heart throbbing.
It's really too foul!
"Speaking of which, there is...is there nothing to do about this matter?" Yukinoshita Yukino who opened her mouth several times but didn't say anything in the end finally couldn't help asking such a question.
Her clear black eyes stared at Xia Ran.
I don't know when, for what reason, the concept was inexplicably formed, which made her subconsciously feel that this person seems to be omnipotent, no matter what kind of thing, he has a way to solve it.
"This is something that happened in another world, and thousands of years have passed..." Xia Ran spread out her hands, saying that this is indeed beyond the scope of her ability, "Although it is not difficult to come back from the dead, but There are certain limitations."
"Isn't it difficult to come back from the dead...?" Miss Yang Nai's mouth twitched slightly.
Even though she has known for a long time that the non-human world corresponds to all kinds of non-scientific things, all kinds of non-scientific examples, and even illogical phenomena are possible, but she still can't help feeling that this person It's too perverted.
"Actually, you don't need to do this, Mr. Xia..." Liu Mengli shook her head, smiling with red eyes, "It's common sense for all spirits to rise and fall, and life and death are taken for granted. You don't need to do this, and I just ...It's just that I suddenly heard the sad news about my old friend, and I have mixed feelings in my heart..."
"Is that so?" The magician took a deep look at her and nodded slightly.
People are actually irrational. They know this is the truth, but there are many people who can't accept it. If there is a chance to save it, then they will definitely follow their own heart willfully instead of maintaining rationality.
Arturia knew that Britain would perish from the day she drew her sword, and she thought she accepted it.
In the end, when that day really came, the king of reason, the king of perfection, broke down in tears, rejected his own redemption, determined to use the power of miracles to change history and reverse the tragedy, and absolutely refused to accept such disillusionment.
That's basically it.
The same is true for Liu Mengli, but she knows very well that this matter is indeed irreparable, and she doesn't want to embarrass herself, that's why she said that.
After receiving such a deep look from the magician, Liu Mengli gave a bitter smile, and said softly, "I'm sorry...I...I might be really not in the mood right now, so I'll go back first...Miss Ouyang, I can't help you , but I'm still glad to see you again..."
"Well, I understand, Miss Liu."
Ouyang Mingzhu, who had been silent all this time, nodded lightly. Of course she could understand, so naturally she would not be unhappy.
Nodding goodbye to everyone like this, the girl with a clear and dreamy temperament turned and left the venue with a bitter expression, her back looked lonely and desolate.
"..."
"..."
The atmosphere was a little silent.
"Aren't you going to see her off?" Yukinoshita Yukino withdrew her gaze and asked in a low voice.
"No, what she needs most now is to be alone quietly..." Xia Ran shook her head, then looked around the venue, and found that the atmosphere was still a bit strange, and the silence occupied most of the air, but at least it wasn't as stiff as before up.
None of the girls at the scene were ordinary people. As long as they had the heart, they could hear clearly across Jiu Tiao Street, let alone such a small distance.
So naturally they all understood what was going on, and no one stared at Xia Ran with scumbag eyes.
It seemed that the frozen air was slowly thawing again. Although the banquet scene did not immediately become lively, it did become normal again, not as weird as before——
Think about it, night falls, the evening wind is blowing, in the open space in front of the shrine, a large group of people are silent, just staring at the long table in the middle, listening to a girl's mourning... how do you see this scene How weird, it can really make people's scalp numb.
"By the way, shouldn't I have told her the news..." The magician breathed out and looked away.
"This kind of thing...in fact, it's better not to keep it a secret." Miss Yang Nai shook her head, but her view was completely different.
"Perhaps..." Xia Ran sighed again, and then saw Mordred who was a little uneasy, walking towards her and the others.
"Father..." Mordred has been extremely uneasy and fearful since just now, because as the sun sets, the night gradually darkens, and the person she most wants to see still does not appear, which makes her unavoidable became more and more flustered.
If it wasn't for Xia Ran's other affairs, she probably couldn't hold back a long time ago and wanted to come over to ask what was going on.
Is it because the father hates himself!
Is it because she doesn't want to see herself and deliberately refuses to appear?
Is it is it is not...
Of course, she also couldn't hold back now, as soon as she saw that Xia Ran was free, she immediately came over, and there was inevitably a trace of panic in the voice of trying to calm down, like someone who was abandoned by her parents. The little girl is average.
"Father, Father, Father——?!"
The pupils contracted suddenly, Miss Yang Nai felt that her heart almost missed a beat.
She subconsciously turned her head to look at the younger sister next to her, but found that the girl was biting her lower lip tightly, but it didn't look like the expected expression, for example, she couldn't believe it, couldn't accept it, and so on. It's more like a little annoyed that this happened, but helpless.
wait wait wait!No way!
Because the sky was too dark and the candlelight was not very real, Yukinoshita Yoshino could not see Mordred's iconic golden hair and blue eyes walking a little distance away. She gasped, and her mind almost instantly A terrible thought occurred to me.
Could it be Yukino's...
