Chapter 33: The Cemetery
The moon alone reminisces about the past, and before she knows it, the time of the day has passed.
When the sun was setting in the west, her eyes were stinging, and she decided to go and see Lin Zijin, the man who still worried her.
She just couldn't rest assured: would he be okay without her?
When the moon came to Lin Zijin's side, in the afterglow of the setting sun, it was in the cemetery.
In the sunset, Lin Zijin turned his back to the moon, his body was plated with a layer of golden light, looking very warm, just like his close body, long arms, broad chest, once gave the moon so much warmth, warmed her cold heart.
At this moment, the moon was standing beside Lin Zijin, but he couldn't see her, as if the sunset was still hot, but it couldn't shine into her heart, and even getting close became a luxury wish.
She and him have long been different, he has his life path to take, and she also has her tasks to complete.
She came back, just to complete her mission.
The moon stretched out her hand and wanted to caress Lin Zijin's face, as before, gently stroking his cheek.
When I started it, it was nothingness, and I couldn't even grasp the air.
The moon suddenly became sad: Could it be that between her and Lin Zijin, this is the end?
She was unwilling, but there was nothing she could do. Unless, Lin Zijin is Zhongtianmu or Mojie, and the emotional entanglement between them can continue.
She turned her head away and shifted her gaze to the surrounding landscape, not wanting to think of more disturbances, especially the grievances and grievances of the fairy world.
This cemetery, the moon is all too familiar, because the sun rests here, and the summer blue also rests here.
After that chance encounter in the hospital, although they each left their phone numbers, Moon and Lin Zijin did not contact each other again, and each returned to their own life tracks.
Like two intersecting lines, after a short reunion, they go in opposite directions, and the distance is getting farther and farther. It's just that, after all, people are not thin straight lines on a piece of paper, and life is always meandering and extending into the distance......
A month later, the moon and Lin Zijin met unexpectedly in this cemetery.
The moon came to visit the sun, and Lin Zijin came to visit the summer blue.
When she was alone in the twilight, stepping on the footsteps of the setting sun, slowly descending the steps, jumping gently.
The moon's mind was full of the shadow of the sun, and she remembered many things they had done together when they were children. Each time, the moon dances briskly with the sun, chasing the afterglow of the setting sun, as if it can cross the long flow of time.
She had naively thought that time could be very long, and it was very short, short without a tail.
When the moon was immersed in a person's thoughts, forgetting everything around her, Lin Zijin's gentle voice came into her ears.
"Xiao Qi, what a coincidence, I met you again. ”
The moon didn't expect that the reunion would come so quickly, and it would still be in such a place.
She turned around and saw Lin Zijin.
He didn't see him, his hair was combed neatly, he was wearing a black suit, a white shirt, and a tie that was also dark black, with black hole-like eyes, like stars, and his demeanor was still the same.
She understood that his dress was a sign of respect for the dead, unlike her, who only put on a beige trench coat and came to visit the sun.
This trench coat was bought by the sun, one for the sun and one for the moon, and the moon was reluctant to throw away the sun's one.
She smiled at him, didn't speak, turned her head and stopped.
The moon looked at the mountain in the distance, and although it had a wide field of vision and a panoramic view of the whole city, it was a blurry hazy and not real enough.
Lin Zijin followed.
When descending the mountain, along the way, both men were silent.
Around, from time to time, there are white birds, flapping their wings and flying awkwardly.
Looking at the cute bird, she smiled, smiling for another reunion.
He is tall in his eyes, and he still looks sad, a month has passed, and his injuries have not healed?
Today, the moon is also depressed, especially missing the sun.
"Zijin, do you remember the last time I mentioned to you my good friend Sun? Today, I came to visit her, and I met you again, what a coincidence!"
The moon lowered her head and descended the steps, and Lin Zijin's voice floated out.
"Sky Blue's cemetery is also here. ”
Lin Zijin also lowered his head and stared at the steep downhill road, and continued: "It's been a month since we last met. ”
"Zijin, the sun is my childhood friend, and her departure has hit me hard. ”
"I know it, I'm just as sad as you are. ”
"Zijin, the story of the last time is not finished yet, do you want to continue listening?" The moon stared at Lin Zijin's big eyes, long eyelashes, and blinked.
"Okay. ”
"Once, my parents went out to work and left me in the care of my grandmother. My grandmother led me to a nearby park. After a while, a little girl passed by me, bouncing and jumping, very cute, and I immediately thought of the sun that I hadn't seen for a long time, and decided to go to her. ”
The moon stopped, and Lin Zijin handed over a bottle of mineral water in time.
So, I took my grandmother's hand and asked her to accompany me. She only replied to me lightly: silly child. I turned around and started chatting with my grandmother next to me again, and I didn't talk to me anymore. I was a little angry at my grandmother's perfunctory treatment of me, and in the end, I decided to go to the sun alone. ”
Lin Zijin stared at the moon and smiled lightly, like the morning sun in the morning light.
"While my grandmother wasn't paying attention, I slipped away quietly. I walked happily along the wide road that my mother used to take me, fantasizing that I would soon see the sun. It was a long, long road, so long that for me at the age of five, it seemed like there was no end in sight. But I still firmly believe that in that direction, that way, as long as I keep going, I will definitely find the sun. That way, I can play with her again. I have a lot of new toys to share with her, as well as snacks. ”
"Xiao Qi, you are really brave, a five-year-old girl dares to go alone?"
The moon smiled, laughing at Lin Zijin's use of the word "breaking".
In Yunxiao's eyes, that five-year-old girl is a little madman and a little fool, what is this looking for a good friend, it is obviously running away from home!
At that time, the moon corrected Yunxiao with a serious face: If I really want to run away from home, I will also take my puppy with me. Anyway, when you stay on the street at night, you can also use it as a pillow or hold it in your arms to keep warm.
As we walked, it became darker. On the way, I met a young couple on a bicycle who saw me a little girl walking alone on the road and stopped. They chatted with me very kindly, and at the end, they wanted to take me home and asked me if I would like to? I refused their request and told them that I knew the way home, and that I was just going to find my good friend Sun. ”
"I guess, they were inexplicably determined by a five-year-old girl, right?"
Ignoring their surprised expressions, I continued my journey. At that time, I firmly believed that if I walked to the end of the road, I could find the sun, as my mother once told me. At that time, I was young and didn't understand anything. After the sun moved, I kept crying, clamoring to see the sun, and in desperation, my mother made a lie to coax me: the sun went far, far away, and it came to the end along this road. ”
"Adults always tell self-righteous white lies to coax children who can't hide their emotions, and my dad did the same. ”
"When I saw a bridge from afar, like a mirage of desert travelers, I thought I was home. Because, as far back as I can remember, there was a similar bridge near my house. However, the dazzling street lights around are a little different from the bridge in my memory. In a trance, I vaguely felt that I was lost, at a loss. At that time, I was already tired and hungry, and I felt lost, so I decided to sit on the bridge and rest for a while. Before my little ass could fall, there was an urgent call, someone was calling me, and I saw my parents with anxious faces. ”
"What a twist and turn! A five-year-old girl, walking alone on the road, how dangerous it is, what if you run into bad people? Maybe they will abduct you. Then you really won't be able to find your way home. ”
"Your tone is exactly the same as your parents when they found me. When my mother saw me, she hugged me tightly in her arms and cried, and when she had cried enough, she began to scold me. Later, I learned that this thrilling search for my family almost separated me from my family forever. When I grew up, every time I think about it, I still have lingering palpitations, and I can't figure it out: back then, how could I be a little girl who was fearless and brave?"
"Yes, I often see reports that some abducted children have been sold far away, and they can no longer find their former family members, and they are separated from them forever. What's more, some children have been beaten and crippled and forced to beg, which is even more pitiful!"
"Later, my mother often scared me and took me with her every day. At night, I was not allowed to go out, for fear that I would run away from home again. When I got home, my mom told me that I was lucky to have met the couple, who knew my parents but didn't know me. When my parents met them, they asked anxiously, and it was they who pointed out the direction to my parents. ”
"This is the inadvertent lifesaver. ”
Hehe... The moon smiled.
When my grandmother saw me, she hugged me and cried, unwilling to let go. Choked up and start, and if I couldn't find it, she wouldn't survive. After discovering that I was gone, she looked for me everywhere and fished in the park's lake. She was afraid that I would fall into the water. Every year, there are always naughty children who die in the lake. ”
"Xiao Qi, it's all over. Lin Zijin patted the moon on the shoulder. "I'll invite you to dinner, I haven't thanked you for what happened last time!"
"Okay. ”
Hearing that someone was invited to dinner, the moon's instinctive reaction was to be happy, raising her face and giving Lin Zijin a smile that she thought was sweet.
This is the so-called cannibalism with a short mouth, and before she has eaten it, she begins to flatter.
No wonder, Yunxiao always throws the moon with a disdainful face, ridiculing her as a greedy woman, and the moon doesn't pay attention to him.
Anyway, every time we eat together, the moon is conclusive: I treat you, you pay.
Probably, because he was abused by the moon, Yunxiao has long forgotten what resistance is.
