Chapter 24: Dawn
When Liu Ansheng's consciousness was awake again, he immediately felt the pain that swept through his body.
The pain of this moment almost made him faint.
His vision was a little gray, and there seemed to be liquid gushing out of his forehead, and the sound of sobbing from time to time beside him.
Opening his eyes weakly, Liu Ansheng seemed to have exhausted all his strength and looked to the side......
"You're awake!"
Xu Shuyao noticed the other party's movement and immediately came to his side, and his eyes were already red from excessive tears.
The hull swayed slightly.
As if sensing this, Liu Ansheng tried to get up from the lying position, but he couldn't do anything.
It seems that doing any extra action other than breathing is extremely painful.
Half-open eyes look at the sky......
It was pitch black, like an abyss, with no end in sight.
"Hair ...... What's going on......"
He tried to ask, but now it is not even a simple matter to speak, and a short sentence consumes most of his strength.
The voice is also different from ordinary speech, if it weren't for Xu Shuyao's whole person lying on his mouth, this sentence would not be heard clearly at all.
The hand clenched subconsciously.
Xu Shuyao's body began to tremble slightly, and she still remembered the last scene she saw before she lost consciousness.
The collapsed building was smashed at Liu Ansheng.
In the next second, a column of water gushed out of the ground, which seemed to have been squeezed for too long, and hit the two of them like a wave.
When she woke up together, she found themselves on a wooden bed.
Except for a few high-rise buildings, there is only an endless surface of water like the sea.
The entire city was flooded.
There was no extra food on board, just a few chocolates as well as a bottle of mineral water.
The day after Xu Shuyao woke up, Liu Ansheng, who had been in a coma, also woke up.
"I ...... I don't know what's going on either...... How are you feeling now, are there any ......?"
The intermittent words were not finished, just like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw, how Liu Ansheng was in health at this time, Xu Shuyao actually knew best.
Deformed legs, and a lot of blood stained on their bodies.
looked at Liu Ansheng's face.
Stained with blood, his eyes were only wide and not much wider than the gap, and his former energetic appearance had long since disappeared, and all he had was tiredness.
Liu Ansheng looked at her.
I looked at the woman who was going to take it to see the sea.
He suddenly had a feeling that he wanted to sleep, and although he couldn't get up to check his physical condition, Liu Ansheng seemed to have expected it.
After all...... You can't even move your fingers.
"I ...... It's so sleepy......"
muttered such a sentence in his mouth, and Xu Shuyao's eyes widened a little in the next second.
She looked at him in a panic, trying to keep her tone as steady as possible.
"Don't sleep, I'll save your ......"
"It's useless......"
"Are you thirsty or not, there is water here...... There is also water ......"
As if she hadn't heard Liu Ansheng's words, Xu Shuyao turned around and took the mineral water that had not yet been opened, and after unscrewing it, she didn't care about the hunger and thirst that her body fed back to her.
Force yourself to look away from the water source.
He handed the bottle to Liu Ansheng's mouth and tilted it slightly.
But no matter what, Xu Shuyao had no way to feed the water to Liu Ansheng to drink, because the moment she unscrewed the water, the other party had already closed her mouth.
After trying a few times, Xu Shuyao looked helpless.
I wanted to open Liu Ansheng's mouth with my hand, but she hadn't eaten or drunk for a long time, and she didn't have much strength.
The hand holding the bottle retracted.
Xu Shuyao slowly lowered her head.
"You...... Why not drink ......"
Her lips were dry, and Xu Shuyao's face was also not good.
Such a sentence came into Liu Ansheng's ears, and the eyes that were already powerless to open looked at the woman beside him.
"I drank...... It's a waste of ......."
"How can it be wasted, are you worried that I don't have water to drink, don't worry...... I've drunk it and I'm not thirsty at all! ”
"Don't lie...... As soon as you lie...... Don't dare to look at me......"
“……”
"Looks like ...... The world is not real...... There's no way the two of us can survive that kind of disaster......"
“……”
"Is it on the ship now......
“……”
After being silent for a long time, Xu Shuyao, who lowered his head, responded.
"Hmmm......"
After receiving this response, Liu Ansheng did not seem surprised.
To put it simply, the reason why he is in this situation is a typical plot killing.
In such a real world life, he has gradually forgotten the things in reality, but this unforeseen disaster has perfectly solved the doubts he had when he first entered this world.
He never understood why he was going to enter again.
I don't understand why Xu Shuyao appeared in this place......
Is that what "Dawn of Humanity" means......
I...... Is it just a supporting role......
Slowly having an answer in his heart, Liu Ansheng didn't know if he could wake up in the real world if he died in this world.
But in this small boat, there is no equipment that can continue to keep you alive......
The eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that they are about to close in the next second.
Liu Ansheng looked at Xu Shuyao on the side, and the more than 300 days spent with the other party flashed in his mind one by one like a return lantern.
For him, one of the most memorable was last night......
Xu Shuyao looks like she is wearing a wedding dress.
Liu Ansheng never thought that he would meet a girl who could put on a wedding dress for him.
He was very glad to have come to this world, and he was very glad to have met each other......
It's just a pity......
I used to give my child a good name, but it doesn't seem to be useful......
"I want to ...... Look at how you look in your wedding dress......"
"Wedding ......"
Liu Ansheng's words were heard by Xu Shuyao, she seemed to think of something, and her hands began to grope in the pockets of her body.
Until I took my phone out.
The power is still abundant, the same as when she first came into this world.
Can...... Xu Shuyao has never charged her phone.
Open the album and there are only a few photos in it.
And the first one is a photo of a man and a woman.
A photo of Xu Shuyao and Liu Ansheng in a wedding dress.
The two people in the photo are smiling, like a newlywed couple who have received countless blessings.
Looking away from the phone screen, Xu Shuyao reached out and lifted Liu Ansheng's already unconscious hand and put the phone in his palm.
With this, the screen was pointed at him.
"Look, I have a picture ......"
"Great......"
With his eyes squinted, Liu Ansheng saw this group photo.
Of course he remembered this.
Looking at the mobile phone screen like this, Liu Ansheng's eyes stayed on Xu Shuyao in the group photo, as if he wanted to deeply engrave the other party's appearance into his memory.
He will never forget the feeling of that night for the rest of his life.
It was a warmth he had never felt before......
I don't know how long it took, maybe Xu Shuyao no longer had the strength to hold Liu Ansheng's hand.
In this way, Liu Ansheng grabbed the hand of the mobile phone and put it back on the boat.
His breathing began to become weak, and his tone was even weaker than his voice had just been.
"Now...... OK...... Tell me about ......"
Looking at Xu Shuyao, Liu Ansheng's vision had begun to blur.
Consciousness seems to be drifting away.
"I want to ...... Listen ......"
"I'm not as good as you think......"
Xu Shuyao's tears, which had already cried clean, slipped down again.
Running down the cheeks, drop by drop.
"I can't walk on my legs...... My mom has been taking care of me at home, and I'm a cripple...... I don't know how to live anymore......"
"They said they could get me back on my feet, but on the terms...... It needs to be tested...... I accepted ......"
"Ansheng...... I ......"
The words stopped abruptly, and Xu Shuyao couldn't say anything.
When she looked up, Liu Ansheng had completely closed his eyes.
There was no sound.
Maintaining this movement, Xu Shuyao knelt beside Liu Ansheng in a daze, looking down at the man lying on the boat.
If she hadn't ever felt the light, she might have gotten used to it.
But Liu Ansheng's appearance was like a beam of light, rescuing her from the dark abyss.
let her experience such an unforgettable love.
Counterpart...... It seems that she has become the only one.
It's the only motivation for her to feel alive......
At the moment of meeting the other party, Xu Shuyao didn't think about how she should live in this world alone.
Silent tears slipped down until ...... Nothing can flow anymore.
Hunger comes from the abdomen, and the body longs for water to be nourished.
Xu Shuyao's mouth didn't seem to be able to secrete any saliva anymore, and when she woke up and found that there was only a little water and food on the boat, she suppressed the urge to eat for Liu Ansheng's sake.
It's been going on for a long time.
He lowered his head and looked at him who had closed his eyes.
Slowly......
Dry lips were imprinted on his lips.
Just like that night, Xu Shuyao slowly lay down, pillowing each other's arms.
Hide yourself in his arms.
He didn't speak, just closed his eyes like him.
For the last time, lie down with each other.
The night is fading.
Cities that have already been flooded...... In the endless sight of the sea, a small boat floats.
In the middle of the bow, a new round of the sun is slowly rising.
Boat......
The farther and farther you go.
No...... End.
