Thousands of Moments Chapter 6 Acceptance and Change
Maybe it's because of the sudden night rain, there aren't many people in the restaurant.
The two of them ate some casually, all of which were home-cooked dishes, and finally Ding Qing's favorite rose cake.
Their attention is not on the food, they have their own thoughts, and as for what is in their mouths, no one cares anymore.
Unlike the almost frank conversation on the rooftop, the two people in the restaurant seem to suddenly fall into some kind of ambiguous atmosphere that can only be understood and cannot be spoken, and whoever speaks can break this beauty.
Yu Sheng didn't know how he finished this meal or how he walked out of the restaurant door, he only remembered that Ding Qing's eyelashes were very long and his face was very white.
Under the rising moonlight, Yu Sheng and Ding Qing walked side by side on the gravel road, the two of them stepped on the same pace, passing through the light and shadow of the street lamp, and maintained a tacit understanding of ten centimeters between each other.
In fact, the rest of his life is far from being as calm as he appears. Since breaking up with his ex-girlfriend, he hasn't walked alone with a girl for a long time like now, quietly with an ambiguous smell that ripples in the air and is almost palpable.
The moonlight was very good, I don't know when the rain stopped, and the freshness in the air carried the unknown fragrance of flowers, but the smell from Ding Qing could still be distinguished from the many aromas for the rest of his life, which made him dizzy.
Yu Sheng's fingers moved quietly a few times each time, wanting to deliberately touch Ding Qing's body, but in the blink of an eye, he retracted like an electric shock.
Ding Qing saw all the small movements of the rest of his life in his eyes, not only laughed in his heart, but then generously held half of the palm of his life. At that moment, Ding Qing could feel the sudden stiffness of his body for the rest of his life.
The two of them walked forward half-unhandedly, all the way back to the coffee shop.
Instead of going back to their respective rooms, the two men went back to the roof.
Looking at it from afar, perhaps because of a night rain just now, the whole world has been washed, and even the air seems to have been washed clean, and the night view of the city in front of you seems to be clearer.
"That's the world of ordinary people. Yu Sheng suddenly pointed to the place where the lights were brightest and said.
Ding Qing looked in the direction of his finger, but could only see the lights and shadows intertwined.
"I used to live there, working hard, commuting to and from work on time every day, and going on a date with my girlfriend on the weekends. It's only been a short year, and in retrospect, the old life was like a big soap bubble, looking beautiful, shining in the sun, but it couldn't stand a light poke. Yu Sheng's tone was flat, as if he was just talking about something that had nothing to do with him, not his past.
Ding Qing nodded, listened quietly, and did not speak. She knew that what she needed for the rest of her life now was not comfort from others, but a change in her own heart.
Moreover, Ding Qing did not feel the so-called normal life in his mouth for the rest of his life. The day when her life changed was far away, and it was as if she had gone from an ordinary high school girl to an enemy of the empire overnight.
Ding Qing's fingers moved slightly, the green fluorescence of his fingertips was bright, and a small green shoot grew on the ground in front of the two people. The green buds shook a few times, as if a bird that had just broken out of its shell was carefully looking at the new world in front of it. Then the stagnant water on the roof disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the green shoots absorbed enough water, growing in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it became a thick vine, like a dragon plate.
It's not the first time I've seen Ding Qing's metamorphosis ability in the rest of my life, but every time I see it, I will have a different admiration and appreciation.
Ding Qing sat sideways on the vine.
"The ground is full of rain. She explained, with a bit of childish seriousness.
Yu Sheng stroked the vines, felt the friction between his fingers and the rough skin of the plant, and couldn't help asking: "Will such a thick vine grow here affect the downstairs?"
Ding Qing shook his head, "The roots of these vines are extremely short and shallow, they are completely spawned by my ability, so naturally they don't need to go deep into the ground. ”
Yu Sheng nodded, thoughtfully, this vine looked as strong as the rest of them, but it was just duckweed.
Yu Sheng and Ding Qing quieted down, and the two of them sat on the roof of the building, one looking up at the starry sky where the dark clouds had receded, and the other looking at the brightly lit city in the distance.
After a long time, Ding Qing suddenly spoke.
"You say...... What is that kind of ordinary normal life like, going to work, falling in love after work, it sounds like it's funny......" Ding Qing's expression was still faint, but her eyes were full of curiosity.
Yu Sheng smiled bitterly, not knowing where to start.
Is the life of the average person interesting? Seriously, the rest of your life doesn't think so.
"Ordinary people's lives are not compatible with the word interesting......" Yu Sheng thought about it, "bland, boring, cookie-cutter, time sneaks away inadvertently, and when you want to go back to the past to find it, you will find that you have not gained anything in the past days." ”
"Ah...... It turned out like this...... Ding Qing snorted softly, "It's the same as going to school." ”
Yu Sheng nodded, "Actually, for most people, life is about walking from one grid to another. ”
Ding Qing nodded as if she didn't understand, she hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I'm envious." ”
Yu Sheng glanced at her in surprise.
Speaking of which, the Divine One is very different from ordinary people, and is already a person of two worlds. The Divine Beings have personal strength that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, and their thrilling combat experience is enough to make ordinary people envious in any way.
And Ding Qing is one of the best.
But even an existence like Ding Qing, who is one of the most powerful even among the gods, would say that he envied the ordinary life of ordinary people.
Seeing Yu Sheng's surprised expression, Ding Qing opened his mouth to explain: "You think, you can spend every day in peace, you don't need to fight or kill, you can eat the meals cooked by your parents when you get home from work, and live happily with them." If possible, there will be a boyfriend, maybe there will be happiness, maybe there will be quarrels, but this is at least a life to look forward to with a future. ”
Yu Sheng nodded slowly, although he didn't speak, he already knew Ding Qing's mind in his heart.
Yes, it may be true that the Divine Beings have transcended this world in some way, but it is also because of this detachment that they will never be able to integrate into this world, which means that the Divine Beings will always be just a page of duckweed in this world.
The Divine Beings have been busy with all kinds of battles since the present world. They are out of place with the rest of the world, other people's jokes, hurry, anger and annoyance, just ukiyo-e, they will never be able to substitute themselves.
Yu Sheng suddenly asked, "Guess when I first began to know that I had accepted the identity of the Divine One?"
Ding Qing looked at him.
Yu Sheng's eyes gradually lost focus, he seemed to be recalling, and it seemed that he only felt it suddenly.
"Since I suddenly found out, I have never cared about what I want to eat for my next meal, I don't care about the TV series I have watched before, I don't care about the changes in the outside world, and I don't care about my future life plan. ”
In the past two months, all the things that he thought he cared about in the past of the rest of his life have disappeared, and only how to adapt to his abilities remains. Everything in the future seems to suddenly fall into a fog and no longer have anything to do with him.
