Seeing that Yan Jin looked like he wanted to speak, the child looked at him with bright eyes, and asked very suspiciously, "Don't you like the dreams I created for them?" I clearly remember that A-Niang likes it very much, A-Niang always told me that she was lonely when she was alone, she didn't like that, he liked to be with Xiaobao, and only when she was with Xiaobao, she would have a smile on her face. ”

Yan Jin sighed softly, and said, "Xiaobao, no matter how beautiful the dream you make, it can't come true after all, no matter how cruel the reality is, as long as we face it bravely, each of us will create a different and wonderful life of our own." Besides, we can't hide in dreams all our lives, everyone has to accept reality after all, including you, Xiaobao. ”

After hearing Yan Jin's words, the child's face suddenly became ugly, and the innocence and cuteness on his face that originally belonged to a child were completely gone, replaced by a kind of indifference and coldness that can only be seen on the faces of adults. I saw him looking at Yan Jin with gloomy eyes, and slowly walked towards him, but after a few steps, he suddenly bent down, looking very painful, his hands tightly grasped the clothes on his chest, and his whole body was constantly trembling. At this time, Yan Jin found that the light on his body was much brighter than just now, and through the little hand of the child holding it tightly, it was slightly dazzling.

The child slowly took a few steps back, slowly raised his head, glanced at Yan Jin, his eyes were full of unwillingness and stubbornness, and in the end, he didn't say a word, turned around and ran away.

Yan Jin just wanted to chase it, but suddenly, it was dark in front of him, and at the same time, the earth began to tremble violently, and the ground under his feet cracked a big gap, Yan Jin couldn't dodge, so he fell without warning.

Yan Jin struggled with his hands and feet, at this time he felt that the clothes on his body were soaked, and the whole person was cold, he shivered slightly, and slowly opened his eyes.

It was the middle of the night, there was no one on the street, such a rainy night, everything was silent, and everyone should sleep soundly in their dreams, but at this time, Yan Jin was extremely awake, the cold rain hit his face and body, he felt extremely cold, and even his teeth were constantly trembling all over his body.

Yan Jin got up from the ground and hid under an eaves beside him, he was already soaked all over his body, and his water-soaked clothes were heavy on his body, very cold and uncomfortable. He took off his coat and twisted the water as hard as he could, and then he had to think about the question that had been haunting him since he had just woken up, "Is he really awake now?" Or is he still in a dream? ”

Yan Jin stood under the eaves for a while, looking at the heavy rain and having no intention of stopping, he saw a few grass curtains on a stall next to him, thinking that the heavy rain was too anxious when it came, and the stall owner had no time to close the stall, so he could only use these curtains to cover it hastily. Yan Jin saw a few sweet potatoes under the corner of the straw curtain, thinking that this was not something that was afraid of rain, so he pulled a straw curtain from the stall, draped it on his body, and hurriedly ran out, blending into the rain curtain.

Surrounded by the endless rain, Yan Jin couldn't see the road in front of him clearly, so he could only run around without direction, he wanted to find Yan Nian, he wanted to find the night star, he also wanted to find the little child, and the answer that was about to come out in his heart.

Yan Jin didn't know how long he had been running in the rain, but the rain was still falling, and there was no sign of brightness. All the way down, Yan Jin didn't see a single light, although the grass curtain on his body temporarily blocked the cold rain, but Yan Jin felt colder and colder, and the coldness that emerged from the depths of his heart slowly hit his whole body. What rainy night everyone is sleeping soundly this his original idea Yan Jin now feels ridiculous there is no one in the current Qiushui City at all, this is an empty city.

Yan Jin slowed down, the question in his heart was already very clear, he was indeed still in a dream now, and judging from the current situation, he should be the only one in this dream, and this may also be the last dream to reality.

"I don't know how Ah Nian is doing now? I'll be worried if he can't find me! Yan Jin thought that he had promised that Yan Nian would be fine, and now that he suddenly disappeared, he must be very anxious.

But Yan Jin thought about it, Yan Nian was so smart, he would definitely think that he had woken up from that dream, and he would definitely find him like the previous time.

Suddenly, Yan Jin heard a strange sound behind him, although the sound of rain in his ears was loud at this time, Yan Jin still faintly heard a rush of footsteps getting closer and closer to him.

Yan Jin turned around, a familiar figure in the darkness ran towards him, the person who came ran in front of him, and before he could stand firm, Yan Jin stepped forward and hugged him, saying, "Ah Nian, you are finally here, I know that you will definitely come." The words were full of surprise and excitement.

Before Yan Nian could speak, Yan Jin hurriedly asked, "Ah Nian, how did you find me?" ”

Yan Nian's face was stuffed in Yan Jin's arms, and the words he said were muffled, only to hear him, "Childe, I've actually been in your dreams all along, but... It's just that the first two times you woke up before you could find you. ”

Yan Jin let go of Yan Nian and found that he was already soaked all over his body, his hair was wet and sticking to his cheeks full of rain, his lips were white, he was trembling all the time, and he looked very embarrassed. Yan Jin hurriedly pulled him to find a grass hut to shelter from the rain, wiped the water on his face and hair with his half-wet sleeves, and then helped him wring out the water on his wet clothes. ”

Yan Nian replied obediently, "Yes, Childe, I entered into your dream, so where you are, I will be there, just need a little time to find you." ”

Yan Jin was pleasantly surprised, "Then, if I wake up, you will wake up too, isn't that so?" ”

Yan Nian nodded and said, "Hmm." ”

"Ah Nian, I just found that child, although I don't know who he is yet, but everything here is really done by him." Yan Jin told Yan Nian everything that had just happened.

After hearing this, Yan Nian said, "Childe, I'll go find that kid right now." ”

Yan Jin grabbed Yan Nian, who was about to rush into the rain, and said, "Ah Nian, the rain is so heavy, we don't know where that child is, how to find it?" Besides, I have a way to get him to come to us obediently. ”

Yan Nian obediently returned to the same place, and the two were silent for a long time, until the clothes on their bodies were almost dry. At this time, the rain outside became smaller and smaller, and in a short time, the pouring rain was gone, and only the hairy rain was still floating in the air, and a fresh smell of earth came to the nostrils. Yan Jin looked at the sky in the distance, it was pitch black, it seemed that they couldn't wait for the dawn to break.

Yan Jin slowly walked out of the grass shed sheltered from the rain, thought for a moment, and shouted loudly, "Xiaobao, haven't you been looking for your aunt all along?" I know where she went, and when you come out, I'll tell you. ”

After Yan Jin finished speaking, he kept standing in place, vigilantly staring at everything around him. After a while, a familiar light appeared at the end of the dark street, and then, Yan Jin saw the small figure again, the goose-yellow clothes on his body were slightly wet by the rain, and the tiger head hat on his head was also worn crookedly, but the light under the shirt on his chest was still so dazzling in the dark night.

In the end, a child is still a child, Yan Jin said a nonsense that even he didn't believe in, he actually took it seriously, at this time, looking at the child's face full of expectation and joy, he faintly began to regret it in his heart.

"Where is my aunt?" The child's crisp voice asked straight to the point.

"It's... This..."Yan Jin said in a slurred voice, how did he know where his aunt was, looking at the child's pure eyes, Yan Jin suddenly stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky, and said loudly, "She's there." ”

The child raised his head with a questioning face and looked at the sky, the sky was dark at this time, and he couldn't see anything, but he still stubbornly looked up his face, blinked his big eyes, and hesitated, "Heaven? ”

"Yes, your aunt is watching you from the sky now, and she can see everything you do."

The child happily said, "Really? Then how did I meet A-Niang? ”

"You won't see her again because she's gone, and she's not coming back." Although Yan Jin didn't say the word "death", this child has been wandering in this world for so long, and he should already know about birth, old age, sickness and death.

Hearing Yan Jin's words, the child finally lowered his head, and Yan Jin saw that big tears dripped down his cheeks and fell on the wet ground, and soon turned into a puddle with the rain.

"Uncle, is A-Niang really dead?" The child still had his head down, and his voice trembled slightly. In fact, he knew for a long time that A-Niang had never come to him, it must be as often said in the people here, a person died and went to another world, so he would never come back, but he didn't want to believe it.

Seeing that such a young child had to accept the cruel reality that it was not his age to accept, Yan Jin's heart was sad, he walked over, squatted down, looked at the heartbroken child, Yan Jin stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the tears on his cheeks, and said to him seriously, "Xiaobao, life is like this, no matter who you are, it is impossible for anyone to always be by your side, they have their own lives, they have their own life experiences, even if they have been with your dearest aunt, one day she will leave, So you have to learn to grow up on your own, and that's the reality that you have to accept. ”

The child looked at Yan Jin, tears flowed even more fiercely, he shook his head vigorously, and said unwillingly, "I don't... I don't want ......"

Yan Jin looked into the child's eyes and said in a serious voice, "You have to accept it, even if you are unwilling, reluctant, and don't like it, but you have to accept it, you know that your rebellion will make many other people lose the wonderful life they deserve, it's unfair, I don't ......." ”
