Chapter 249: Depressed Days
Mo Ke pulled Xiao Qing over and made her face him. He knew that Xiao Qing was the most emotional. And the three people of the deer king are also teachers and friends to Xiao Qing. Now that the three of them are in such a state, how can Xiao Qing bear it? He hugged her tightly, hoping to give her some strength. I hope that she will no longer look at the statues of the Deer King and Cangyun, and her mind can be soothed somewhat.
Once again, time seemed to stand still.
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Qing and Mo Ke were surrounded by animals from the elven world. They all looked solemnly at the two statues and a large tree, their faces full of sorrow. At the same time, they were looking at the white tower. Looking at Xiao Qing who saved their lives.
Mu Xi led Yaya from a distance. At this moment, Yaya doesn't look like a five or six-year-old child at all. Experience makes people mature, and experience makes people grow. Yaya walked to Xiao Qing's side silently. The little hand took Xiao Qing's.
"Mother, don't be sad, the deer king said, it has long been ready to protect the elf world and sacrifice for the elf world. It asked me to leave this to you. ”
Yaya was holding a roll of paper in her hand, and as soon as Xiao Qing touched it, it automatically stretched out. Drifting in the air, the bigger it gets.
A gentle female voice came.
"Beautiful elven world, I am your daughter elf. I love it and never thought it would bring disaster here. I am willing to use my life to make up for my mistakes. I hope there will never be war, disease, suffering, strife. I hope this place will always be full of life, kindness and beauty. I am willing to spend my life guarding it until I die. ”
The sound dissipated, and so did the scroll. Slowly melted into the surrounding air.
Mo Ke looked at Xiao Qing from afar. A deep sigh. For more than a month, Xiao Qing sat by the white pagoda on the bank of the river every day and stared at the wasteland opposite. The gray fog over the wasteland had long since lifted. What catches my eye is a desolation, just like Xiao Qing's state of mind for more than a month.
Today, Xiao Qing was lying at the feet of the deer king, and almost his entire body was hidden in the purple flowers.
Since that great war, the elven world, which was once full of green meadows and dense forests, has completely changed. Although it is still four hillsides, it is arranged in a field shape. But there was no longer that big tree on the slopes of the tree king. All that remained was a dead tree trunk, standing bare on top of the hillside. The rest of the forest, which had been luxuriant, turned bare and charred.
All that was left in the elven world was the fresh grass and the weak saplings a foot high. Strangely, the mountains were covered with purple bellflowers overnight. Purple bellflowers flutter in the wind, seemingly swaying with sadness. Isn't the purple flower language a symbol of longing? Could it be that nature also misses them in its own way?
In this battle, the elven world not only disappeared from the dense forest, but also lost nearly half of the living beings. These include three of the most influential leader creatures unique to the elven world. The remaining half of the animals, immersed in deep sorrow, mostly shuttled between the caves and the White Tower where they lived every day. It seems that they will never do anything else but deep longing.
The same goes for Xiao Qing. In the past month, in addition to being too tired and falling asleep, she was carried back by Mo Ke, and she was spent on the bank of this river. Xiao Qing, who woke up, no matter where he was, would involuntarily go here again. Sometimes she leaned against the big tree, sometimes she lay next to the stone statues of the deer king and the clouds. I don't know what I'm thinking!
In fact, Xiao Qing didn't think about anything, her brain was blank! She didn't lose her soul, she lost her heart. Her heart was petrified with the deer king. Even she felt that she might as well be petrified like the deer kings, so that her lost heart would not be empty.
Nothing can alleviate the sadness in Xiao Qing's heart. and more self-blame. No matter how beautiful the thoughts are, they are not as good as standing in front of them alive.
If she hadn't left here, wouldn't it have been like this? If she had been guarding here, if she had come back to spend more time with them, if she hadn't lost her memory? If she had ...... But these are all assumptions after all, just assumptions, assumptions that cannot be given a chance to start over.
There is no going back! There is no going back! Everything is now just a luxury, a luxury that can never be realized.
Moke walked over and sat down next to her.
"Soldier, it's time for you to wake up! Grief doesn't change the situation! The elven world is still waiting for you. If you don't recover, I'm afraid it will never be restored here. ”
As they spoke, many animals gathered from afar. This is what the creatures here do spontaneously every day.
Xiao Qing stroked the foot of the stone statue of the deer king with one hand. It seems that this is the only way, only a little contact with them, even if it is just a contact with the cold stone statues, can fill Xiao Qing's empty heart a little, so as not to panic empty. It doesn't make her panic and just want to escape.
"I know, I should be strong, but I can't keep up the spirit, and I don't have the ability to detect and repair at all. After so many days, there was no recovery at all. I can't do anything right now! Look at my hand, it's shaking itself. ”
After a long while, Xiao Qing calmed down his mind and spoke. But her voice was hoarse. Even she didn't believe the voice was hers.
Mo Ke listened to such a voice and looked at Xiao Qing who was so depressed. His heart was tugged at hard. He also blamed himself, blaming himself for not being able to protect her, for failing to protect what she was going to protect. Instead, she was so tired that she was distracted from them to save him.
Mo Ke lay down, hugged Xiao Qing in his arms, let Xiao Qing pilllow his arm, and held Xiao Qing in his arms with his other hand. Mo Ke gently stroked Xiao Qing's back and forth, up and down.
"Bing'er, I know it's hard. You have a deep relationship with the Deer King, the Tree King, and Cangyun, and they have sacrificed their lives to save you many times. You can't bear to let them go. But you have to take that step before you can hope to recover. ”
Mo Ke said, pausing. He felt Xiao Qing trembling slightly, was she crying? It's better to cry out than for her to grit her teeth and stiffen up, better than to hide everything in her heart.
"You know what they want to get by giving up their lives. You've got to get out there and rebuild the elven world so they die meaningfully, don't you?"
Xiao Qing was already trembling even more, she finally couldn't help it, she kept sobbing, and under Mo Ke's gentle love, she completely broke the defense line in her heart.
"Cry, cry better! I have not been able to keep my promise to protect you and what you are going to protect. I'm sad too. But you still have me, even if I am not qualified, I will always support you! I will accompany you!"
"But I can't do it, I can't do anything. I don't have any strength now, what else can I do for the elven world except to be sad and sad?"
Xiao Qing cried bitterly, turning all the reluctance and self-blame in his heart into tears.
"It doesn't matter if we don't have the strength, let's start over, let's start all over again. If you can't do it in one day, it's ten days, a month, a year. There will always be a day when you can use your strength if you cultivate well. Bing'er, when you came for the elven world, now you also have to think about them and those outside. I can stay here with you, what about them? What about the people outside? They don't have any news, so how are they worried?"
"Bing'er, you are the backbone of all of them, and you have always been the strongest. If you fall, what will happen to the elven world? What will Yaya do? What will they do in Yeyujiang? Their injuries have not yet recovered, and all these things they have come to do with you are because of you, you have to be strong, they will be happy! Only you can send them out. ”
The more Xiao Qing cried, the worse he became. Mo Ke had no choice but to hug her in his arms. Kiss her on the cheek, kiss the tears from her face, press her to her chest, and let her vent.
Xiao Qing, who was no longer depressed, cried loudly. The cry alarmed several nearby animals. They raised their heads from the grass of purple bellflowers and looked in Xiao Qing's direction in surprise.
In their hearts, they trust Xiao Qing like the deer king, and pin the hopes of the entire elven world on Xiao Qing. In their hearts, Xiao Qing is their mountains, their water, and their sky. They never believed that one day the mountains would be gray, the water would dry up, and the sky would fall. But they felt Xiao Qing's grief today, her fragility and helplessness! They understood her.
Several stag slowly walked over, stood down beside Xiao Qing, and touched Xiao Qing's back with their heads and mouths.
Xiao Qing slowly stopped crying, raised his head from Mo Ke's arms, his eyes were red and swollen, and he looked at several male deer. These are the ones who have been following the deer king, and Xiao Qing recognized them. Then she sat up and put her arms around the neck of the nearest stag. The stag meekly let her hold it, and its sparkling eyes moistened.
Seeing that Xiao Qing was tired of crying, Mo Ke hugged Xiao Qing horizontally. Xiao Qing hid in Mo Ke's arms, like a timid little girl. At this moment, Mo Ke, who was holding Xiao Qing, was full of distress, Xiao Qing was so light! She lost a lot of weight. He walked so far with such a princess in his arms, and he didn't feel it difficult at all.
Mo Ke carried Xiao Qing back to the elf's room, and Yaya was not in the house. Mo Ke put Xiao Qing on the bed, Xiao Qing was already tired and asleep. As soon as Mo Ke was about to withdraw his arm, Xiao Qing moved into his arms, like a helpless little girl afraid of losing her support.
Mo Ke was afraid of waking her up, so he didn't dare to move. He hugged Xiao Qing like this, and he didn't know when he fell asleep. For so many days, Mo Ke hadn't slept a single restful night. He was seriously injured, his recovery was slow, and he was worried about Xiao Qing all day long. Moke slept deeply. When Mo Ke woke up, he found that Xiao Qing was not in the crook of his arm.
Mo Ke seemed to have lost a treasure, and he was completely awake in an instant. Ignoring nothing else, he quickly sat up from the bed in his underwear and ran out of the house anxiously.
