The light flowed spontaneously, and the scene in front of him seemed to have changed, but Zhang Longqian, whose mind was blank, saw nothing.

- Rather, she can't see anything anymore.

Her gaze was completely unfocused, there was no color in her eyes, and it seemed that several figures were shaking and approaching, but she couldn't tell who it was.

“…… Are you okay? ”

"How the hell is ......?"

“…… Miss! ”

A noisy voice broke into the ears, as if someone was calling anxiously, but who was that? What He Called...... And who?

Zhang Longqian didn't know.

It seemed that someone had taken her hand, and a slight sound sounded in her ears.

“…… I think you will remember that the young master ordered us to go back by the end of September at the latest, and now the time has come, even if I am alone...... I'm leaving, too, you...... Say goodbye to Xiao Lu for me......"

…… Who's this?

"Take care...... Also, don't try to ......"

He's ...... Say what?

"Hey! Where are you going?! ”

The cold hands let go of her, and the human voices suddenly became noisy, Zhang Longqian couldn't understand their words, she just stood in despair, and it seemed that she was not standing at all, the surrounding light and shadow were mixed with sound, like the cold sea water submerged, and finally pulled her into the deep darkness.

There was a dead silence, nothing could be seen, nothing could be heard.

But suddenly a voice sounded in my ears.

It was a strange laugh, as uncomfortable as something sharp scratching through glass. The moment it sounded was as faint as a mosquito, but it quickly became very obvious, as if something was rapidly approaching. But the eyes could not see the slightest change.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of me.

A man who is so ordinary that anyone who looks at him will not remember his appearance.

…… Who is it?

As soon as the confusion appeared, the man smiled hideously and turned into a strange appearance.

Yellow-brown fur, sharp claws, a huge body like a tiger, but the head has the face of the previous "man". There was an almost crazy smile on the corner of his mouth.

Monster.

Yes, it's ...... A youkai named "Horse's Belly".

Squinting his eyes and smiling distortedly, the horse's belly suddenly pounced. The raised front claws were extremely sharp, reflecting a cold glow, and she tried to avoid them, but she couldn't move. I could only watch as the hideous face approached quickly.

The next moment. Her vision suddenly bloomed a brilliant red.

Red.

A large area of dazzling fiery red appeared out of thin air in an instant, like a red lotus flower, and the figure in the horse's belly suddenly turned into ashes, and she looked up in a daze and found the figure standing on the roof.

The tall back was full of coldness, and the short dark red hair was like a flame burning out in the wind, and the young man in black did not look back, nor did he make a sound. He left silently.

…… Don't go.

She wanted to scream, but she couldn't make a sound. Her heart couldn't help but roll out of anxiety, she lifted her heavy legs and chased after her hard.

The still scene continued to sweep back, but she gradually couldn't find the back of the black-clothed young man, instead, many strange figures pounced one after another.

Monsters, vampires, humans......

It was all the gestures she had ever seen, each with unmistakable malice, she subconsciously stopped, raised her arms to protect her head in confusion, but saw the sky full of fiery red reappeared.

The malevolent figure disappeared without approaching her, leaving only a dark figure standing in the flames with her back to her, she moved her lips, trying to call but still couldn't make a sound, seeing that the figure was about to leave, she couldn't help but rush into the flames and stretched out her hand to him.

…… Wait a minute!

The brilliant flames flickered and emitted a terrible heat, but she didn't care at all, just tried to reach out and grab his coat, but he jumped forward, and suddenly opened the distance between her and her.

Panic surged suddenly, she looked at the young man who was about to go away, opened her mouth but couldn't make a sound, she could only rush towards him desperately.

The flames obscured her vision, making it impossible for her to see clearly, and she couldn't get closer, as if she could never reach it.

Despair crept in, her eyes widened in horror, and a small voice finally came out of her throat.

“…… Don't go ......"

But as if he hadn't heard, he went on, and her face was already on the verge of crying, and she cried out in grief with all her strength.

"Cangyan-!"

He finally stopped, and then slowly turned in the flames, staring at her with a tenderness in his dark eyes that she had never seen before.

"I'm sorry. I can't keep my promise. ”

And then.

The gentle boy shattered in her terrified gaze.

“…… Not ......"

The outstretched hand couldn't reach him, couldn't get close, couldn't touch, could only watch him gradually merge with the darkness.

“…… Don't! Cang Yan——! ”

Icy darkness enveloped it, and a suffocating silence covered everything.

Zhang Longqian suddenly opened his eyes.

Looking blankly at the wooden ceiling, her breathing was rapid and violent, her heart was beating as fast as a drum, and she could still feel the warm liquid in her cheeks, but she was relieved.

"It's a dream...... Right? ”

Cang Yan will die or something...... How could it happen? Certainly, just a nightmare.

“…… How could you have such an unlucky dream......"

With a sigh, Zhang Longqian sat up and raised his hand to wipe the tears that flowed from his dream, but he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

It seems to be holding something in the palm of his hand.

"What ......? I...... Did you take anything before you went to bed? ”

Muttered softly as if explaining to herself, the corners of Zhang Longqian's lips hooked up a smile, but she looked very reluctant, she looked at her right hand that she didn't know how long she clenched, hesitated, and finally slowly opened.

The moment she saw it, she shivered and gasped, and her heartbeat suddenly stopped.

In her vague memory, she could still see the spatial passage of blue and red light, and the dark red that passed through the two colors of light and fell into her hand, and that color that had not attracted anyone's attention turned into something in her palm at the moment.

Dark red ring.

Zhang Longqian clearly remembered that it was a storage ring worn on the little finger of Cang Yan's right hand.

There was a faint hint of soul in the cold ring, and the wisps were wrapped around her fingertips.

So familiar, so warm breath.

Not a dream.

He really ...... Cang Yan, he has really ......

Trembling and holding the ring tightly, Zhang Longqian slowly curled up, his folded hands pressed tightly against his chest, and he couldn't cry.

At this moment, as she moved, something rolled out of her cuffs.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that it was a thumb-sized stone, with strange colors circulating on the surface, but this did not attract Zhang Longqian's attention, her gaze had long been dizzy, and she couldn't think about anything at all.

"Long Qian, pick up that stone."

The voice that sounded directly in his head made Zhang Longqian react slightly, but he was very sluggish: "...... Eldest brother? ”

"Pick it up, it's a 'memory stone' that can record memories!"

Feng Xing's voice was very stern, which shocked Zhang Longqian's mind to regain a trace of clarity, but he could only follow Feng Xing's words and think slowly: "I...... I don't know anything like that......"

"I know. That's what someone else gave you. ”

"Don't ...... Person? ”

Who...... Would you give her this kind of thing?

Looking at the small stone with teary eyes, Zhang Longqian's mind was running slowly, and he finally remembered something.

…… I'm leaving, too, you...... Say goodbye to Xiao Lu for me......

When she was in a mess, she did hear this sentence, it was Nangong Piao's voice, and at that time, he held her hand.

Could it be that time......

Zhang Longqian's eyes lit up with a faint brilliance.

Cang Yan is already dead, what is the use of Nangong Piao leaving the memory stone?

She didn't know, she just had a faint glimmer of hope, and hurriedly grabbed the small stone, and the mana immediately probed in.

Memories come flooding back. (To be continued.) )
