Chapter Twenty-Seven: We Should Not Have Met
Barren mountains on the outskirts of Mt. Sakaze
Since it is the territory of the beauty town, few people pass by here. The vicissitudes of life and the chivalrous man were staggering to this barren mountain. The moon and stars are scarce, and the surrounding wild grass and dead trees are dyed with starlight. Even the vicissitudes of life can vaguely see the former handsomeness, and the face that is often sad and depressed finally shows a happy smile.
"Sassy !!"
A gust of wind blew, and a woman in a red wide-sleeved dress stood abruptly in front of the down-and-out swordsman. His expression was cold, and a touch of crimson was outlined on the tail of his eyes. There is a butterfly hairpin in her jet-black hair, and the tassels on the butterfly hairpin are blown by the wind and jingle. She looked at the knight's eyes, and her expression softened.
"The day is still here."
The knight smiled and looked greedily at the woman in front of him.
"yes, that's what I'm looking forward to."
The woman looked at the knight and didn't talk much, as if she was thinking about the past.
"After so many years, it seems that you are also old."
The knight's hand wanted to touch the woman's face that he had dreamed of in his mind, and suddenly he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality. But he lowered his hand again.
"It's good to finally see you. God still treats me well. ”
The woman looked at the chivalrous man sadly.
"Why don't you listen to me? Live your life well, can't you? Don't you want to be a hero? Can't you work your heroic goals? Isn't it okay to continue to be your wanderer? Why are you so stupid? Make yourself look like you are today. ”
The woman cried, like flowers in the rain, delicate and tender. The chivalrous man was suddenly at a loss and hurriedly comforted the woman.
"Closed month, don't cry. When you cry, I will be sad. If you cry again, I will cry with you! ”
This down-and-out knight is no longer confused, and his black hair is already gray. But in front of the woman he loves, he is clumsy like an immature child.
She smiled, tears in her eyes, and looked at the chivalrous man with disgust.
"You're still so out of tune, I don't know what you liked about me in the first place?"
The knight's cloudy eyes suddenly revealed a hint of clarity, and he smiled when he heard the woman's words.
"But my heart is tied to you, yours. The prosperity of the world can no longer enter my eyes. I'm a man like the wind, and I've become a prisoner of your ranks. ”
The chivalrous man smiled self-deprecatingly, and the woman looked at him sadly, and spat out cruel words in Jinxiu's mouth.
"You and I should never have met, if we hadn't met, you would still be a famous knight in this world, riding the best horses and drinking the strongest wine. Revered by all, a man like the wind as you said should not be held back by the love of his children. So ......"
The unfinished words revealed ominousness, but the chivalrous man still looked at this woman. Word by word, he replied.
"I, no, after, repent. I'm willing to leave it all behind for your sake. Even when you and I met, even when you were with me. Even though you and I haven't seen each other again over the years, I still want to see you, and for so many years, I will come here every year on your birthday, with the gift of survival I have prepared for you. I just want to get you back a smile, and then use this smile to accompany my lonely life for the rest of my life. But finally this day is coming to an end, and this day is finally coming. ”
The woman stopped her choking and forced the tears not to flow out of her eyes.
"You really ...... Don't regret it at all? ”
After speaking, he took out the delicate long knife from his waist, and the hidden knife was faintly glowing with purple light, revealing ominous. The tip of the knife is sharp at the knight. The knight suddenly stepped forward and hugged the woman in front of him tightly, the delicate long knife passed through his chest, and the knight snorted. With a grin, blood gushed out of his mouth, flowed to the corners of his mouth, and flowed onto his body, and then his body fell to the ground with a limp.
"I don't regret it, even if I met you at the beginning, the rest of my days will be full of sadness. But the sweetness that I cherish in my heart still supports me to walk towards you, I'm really sorry, I want to leave you alone in this world. ”
The woman hugged the knight and clenched her teeth.
"Silly! Child! What a big fool!! ”
Tears flowed involuntarily, slowly wetting the woman's beautiful face. The knight's eyes gradually dimmed, and he trembled and raised his hands to caress the woman's face.
"Don't feel guilty anymore, I died at your hands of my own free will. You said...... Next...... Can I still see the dawn? ……”
Leaving behind these vague words, the chivalrous man breathed, and he finally died in the arms of the woman he loved. The woman gasped sharply, then said with a calm expression.
"It will be dawn, and when that day you will be a dashing and uninhibited knight, riding the best horses, drinking the strongest wine, and having a confidante who loves you, by your side. But on that day, I won't meet you again......" and kissed the knight's lips gently, letting the blood stain his lips......
After waiting for a while, the knight's body suddenly emitted a strange light, and then with a bang, the knight's body turned into countless purple points of light, floating in all directions......
It was late at night, the woman was gone, the whole barren mountain returned to calm, no one saw what was happening here, and a lingering and bitter love was gone with the wind......
