My name is Anke Ding, I am a photographer who has my own independent photography studio, and my life is tiring but fulfilling.

I'm content with what I have, and I love what I do and I love life just as much.

Until one day, because of an incident, my ordinary life changed drastically.

That is when I found out that I had an eye disease, and the doctor said that if I didn't have a suitable corner of the eye, I would be blind, and as a photographer, if I don't have my eyes, I would lose my job, which is fatal.

I spent those days in a state of confusion until a dream woke me up.

I still remember that a field of red flowers appeared in my dream, and a few red petals drifted in the swaying wind, fell in the palm of my hand, and were swept away by the next wave of breeze.

The red was like a gaudy satin—a satin stained red with blood.

Standing in the sea of flowers, I feel like I am in a blood-colored pool, the red is breathtaking, but for some reason it is always desolate.

Suddenly, I was drawn to the whiteness of the flowers, it was a white flower, the petals stretched outward, free and easy, there were no leaves on the rhizome, and I could clearly see the sporadic starlight from the petals.

I have never seen such a beautiful flower, or rather, a flower that I have never seen since I was born.

I was about to reach out and touch it, but the dream suddenly disconnected.

Usually dreams are almost forgotten when you wake up, but this dream is imprinted in your mind, and you can't forget it.

Since then, I've been reminded of something from 12 years ago that I still can't remember all because of the time I've passed.

But twelve years ago, I was only a teenager, but my appearance seems to have changed from now, as if time has been frozen, if I can continue to live in the same state, I will not be blind......

yes, if it's time......

Just as I was in the midst of a gloom, a memory suddenly flooded into my mind.

I remembered that I was a youkai - a yellow leaf abandoned by a tree.

Twelve years ago, I was a withered leaf about to melt into the earth, how could I have the luxury of living a few more days?

As the end of my life approached, I looked at the sky and the pedestrians passing by every day, and I suddenly became curious about the world, how it works, and how big the world really is.

Perhaps it was a strong will that supported me, and in the end, with unremitting efforts, I actually cultivated into a human form.

It's a pity that dead leaves are dead leaves after all, and they will eventually face death in the near future.

Escaping from reality, I stumbled into the Santang Forest, where I met the mountain god Xiangrong, and I disguised myself so that he thought I was just an ordinary human and sent me out of this dense and deep forest safely.

But for him, I have a special emotion, I don't understand, maybe it's love at first sight.

So after that, I appeared in Santang Forest every day to look for him, and over time, we fell in love.

The more time passed, the more I feared that I would disappear, and it wasn't until I talked about the mandala flower that I finally saw some hope.

So that day, I deceived him.

I said I wanted to see what the real mandala flowers on the Huangquan Road looked like, and whether they were really as beautiful as Shang Rong said.

Under my request, Shang Rong finally agreed to take me into the Yellow Spring of the Underworld once.

As you can imagine, I couldn't resist the temptation of the mandala illusion, so I picked it while I was unprepared.

Unknown to the consequences of breaking the stems of the mandala flowers, I stole the flowers and fled quickly from the Yellow Spring.

I know it's wrong to cheat on someone I love, but I want to live longer than my own short life.

So I'm sorry......

The mandala was stolen, the Yellow Spring Road fell into chaos, and finally, under the self-blame of Shang Rongwan, together with the mandala flower demon Chixue, they controlled the hell fire that flowed to the Santang Forest, but even if they tried harder, the Yan Fire still burned down part of the Santang Forest.

And I, after being found by Xiangrong, was taken away from the mandala, in order not to be caught and disposed of by the underworld, he actually abolished my cultivation and made me an ordinary person, people only have a short life span of a few decades, which is inconsistent with my desire for immortality, I naturally hated Xiangrong at that time.

Who would have thought that he would not give up after abandoning his cultivation, and he would erase all the memories of my life, and inexplicably instilled in me a memory that did not belong to me.

Twelve years later, I have now been diagnosed with an eye disease, which has once again strengthened my determination to steal the mandala.

But when I came to Santang Forest again, it was still the same as before, but it was no longer the same as before......

Xiangrong's face was ruined by the fire, and my heart felt like it had been doused with hot oil, and I couldn't extricate myself from the pain.

I hate him, but I love him.

At that time, I made up my mind, and when I got the flowers, I would use a mandala to heal his scarred face.

It's a pity that the ending is not as good as I wanted.

I was controlled by the illusion of the mandala flower, and once again broke the heart of the garment, he was captured by Raja, and I ......

Hey?

Why, do I think about these things so serenely?

The surroundings were very quiet, and only the sound of "Di Di Di" instruments could be heard.

……

When I opened my eyes, a white blank came into my eyes.

Reaching out to block out the sunlight that pierced through the window, Ding Anke sat up from the bed abruptly.

There was a tingling pain on the back of his right hand, and when he lowered his eyes, he saw that he was hanging with water.

So here it is – the hospital?

Covering his forehead, Ding Anke only felt a splitting headache, and remembered that he was hunted down by Luo Jia at that time, and then he was ......

Did he save himself......

Bang Bang –

For some reason, a tear quietly fell down her cheek onto the quilt, and she touched her soaked eyes, feeling complicated.

"Yo, it seems that I haven't been caught, my life is quite hard."

The door to the ward opened, and a voice came from an unfamiliar one, but she remembered the face very well.

It was Yan Hua, he came to visit Zhao Han in the hospital, and when he heard the news that Ding Anke was also in the hospital, he lied to the young lady of the nurse's desk that she was Ding Anke's friend, and only then did she know her specific bed.

"Are you here to arrest me and go to the underworld to confess?" Ding Anke asked.

Yan Hua leaned against the door, raised the corners of his mouth and said, "I'm not from the underworld, but I will inform Luo Jia, it's his business whether to arrest you or not." ”

After all, Yan Hua, who was not interested in Ding Anke, was about to leave, but she stopped her.

"Can you help me ask, how is the appearance?" Her voice softened.

"I don't want to interfere in your business, but ......" Yan Hua was stunned for a moment and didn't speak again, he moved his gaze down slightly, staring at the cabinet next to Ding Anke's bed.

Attracted by his gaze, Ding Anke tilted his head slightly and also looked in the direction of the bedside table.

A white and flawless flower was lying quietly on it.

It's -

White Mandala?!

"It seems that he really loves you deeply." Yan Hua let out a long sigh, and then walked away, "I see that this underworld is going to be messed up recently." ”

"Wait......" Ding Anke wanted to stop him, but Yan Hua walked quickly, and he disappeared not long after.

Looking at the mandala on the bedside table, Ding Anke fell into deep thought......

……

Santang Bay, picking up the blue sea.

"Why are you here?" Gao Qingzhu's tone was full of doubts and shock.

Her amber eyes were fixed on the doorway, just because there stood a figure she was all too familiar with - Xu Nanxing.

He was wearing a clean white T, wearing a loose black short-sleeved shirt on the outside, looking delicate and refreshing, Xu Nanxing's arrival also attracted the attention of many young women, and they all whispered, and they seemed to be fascinated by his handsome appearance.

I saw Xu Nanxing sneering and scratching the back of his head: "I flew directly from my hometown, oops!" Qingzhu, I haven't seen you for a long time, I almost miss you! ”

"I mean, how do you know where my house is?" Gao Qingzhu stopped what she was doing, her hands crossed her waist, her face was serious, she almost thought that Xu Nanxing had done something illegal to find out her home address.

Seeing that her tone was not very happy, Xu Nanxing hurriedly threw her luggage aside and walked quickly to Gao Qingzhu: "Don't worry, I didn't do anything, let alone find someone to follow you." ”

"You don't remember? The last time you sent a courier, I was watching from the sidelines. Xu Nanxing hurriedly explained.

Gao Qingzhu then remembered that he had sent the express before, and it was Xu Nanxing who helped move the box of things over at that time.

But he came suddenly, and Gao Qingzhu was indeed a little caught off guard.

However, in my heart, I still felt a trace of sweetness, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.

Xu Nanxing, who was on the side, looked up and down at the whole family "picking up the blue sea", and was sighing that the environment was not bad, when Gao Qingzhu's parents came back.

What are the personalities of An Yuelan and Gao Hongyu, Gao Qingzhu knows very well, the scene of Yan Hua being "besieged" by the two of them a few days ago is still vivid, if even Xu Nanxing is ......

"Hello, are you going to stay at the hotel?" An Yuelan thought he was an ordinary guest, and as soon as she entered the door, she started business.

Xu Nanxing saw at a glance that the two of them were Gao Qingzhu's parents, and suddenly looked respectful, how could he still have the usual appearance of being a hanger, only to see him say earnestly: "Yes, yes, uncle and aunt, my name is Xu Nanxing, and I am Qingzhu's friend." ”

As soon as they heard that they were friends and such a handsome guy, An Yuelan and Gao Hongyu were instantly interested.

"Come, sit down, where is the man? How old are you? How did you know our Qingzhu? An Yuelan asked a lot of questions, just like someone checking the household registration.

Gao Qingzhu held his forehead and said that he was speechless, and was about to dissuade his parents from embarrassing others, but who knew that there was another "trouble".

"Qingzhu, I'll bring a friend to rent a surfboard." Yan Hua's voice came.

It was already afternoon at the moment, and Yan Hua and his basketball club members had already returned from the hospital, and they were bored, planning to go surfing and swimming in the sea.

As soon as he saw that it was Yan Hua, Xu Nanxing's whole person bounced up from his seat as if he had been electrocuted, and he was extremely vigilant.

"Why are you here?" There was hostility in his eyes, and he regarded Yan Hua as an "opponent".

And Yan Hua, who was still standing at the door, had a kind smile on his face: "I'm here for a vacation, so coincidentally, you also came here to play?" ”

"Yes, I came here to see Qingzhu, and then took a vacation by the way." When he said this, Xu Nanxing grinned, and deliberately emphasized the words deliberate and incidental, highlighting the key points.

Obviously, the focus in this sentence is Gao Qingzhu, and the vacation is by the way, not important.

The atmosphere at this time is very delicate, one is a suitor, the other is a "rumored boyfriend", Gao Qingzhu just wants to find an excuse to leave quickly.

The customers in the store also joined in the excitement, after all, there were two handsome guys in a row, and the women were a feast for their eyes.

An Yuelan snickered, and hurriedly drove Gao Hongyu to work, while she stood in front of the bar and prepared the afternoon drinks.

Several boys behind Yan Hua saw that the situation was not right, and they all avoided it temporarily, but one of them still didn't leave.

I only heard him say, "Huh? Yan Hua, you are a rival, but you kid is late, and they both slept together last night. ”

The second half of this sentence was obviously said to Xu Nanxing, but as soon as these words came out, everyone in the public was stunned.

Bang bang -

It was the cracking sound of a glass falling to the ground.

An Yuelan was already stunned.

And Xu Nanxing in front of him turned his head to look at Gao Qingzhu, if there was thunder above his head, he only felt that his ears rumbled, and his trembling and slightly coercive voice sounded: "What did he mean by what he just said?" ”
