Chapter 635: The Man in the Mirror
Huang Mo stood in the endless crowd, raised his head and looked up at the cloud city rising from the ground in front of him.
Cloud City, is a place where the elders of the Divine Beast clan gather in one place, Huang Mo has never been here since he was a child, and Falling City seems to dislike letting his family get involved in his work, even the falling star who likes to lose his temper is no exception.
But Huang Mo knew that he liked to walk down to a small inconspicuous pastry house next to him to rest when he was tired in the afternoon. He has said more than once that the desserts there have a nostalgic fragrance, and even the usual serious face will have an unknown aftertaste.
So Huang Mo decided that no matter how long he waited, he would die here and wait.
This small dessert room was full of sweet smell as soon as you entered, and there was only one woman over half a hundred years old, who saw her come in, silently closed the book, and asked with a warm smile on her weathered face, "What do you want, Miss?" ”
"......" Huang Mo suddenly blushed a little, and after a long time, he said, "Whatever......"
"Okay, please sit down and wait a moment." The woman stood up kindly and began to prepare.
Huang Mo sat down and carefully looked at the surrounding decorations, the long vines twisted the beautiful knots along the small house, and the hanging green leaves looked fresh and natural, and they were extremely comfortable to look at. I finally understand why Falling City likes it so much.
She looked down, and there were spell remnants on the walls, as if they had been specially made to preserve memories. But most of it is obscured by vines. She curiously pulled away the vines, many of which were groups of children gathered together, adolescent boys and girls laughing or hugging and playing.
This is what she yearns for, just to be with her friends like this, and then have fun, or quietly confide in each other's secret feelings, ordinary, but so happy.
Huang Mo felt a little bitter in his throat, but finally smiled helplessly.
She looked back at the memories on the wall again, and suddenly saw that when time passed in the night, it seemed to be a couple standing together, the woman was very shy and leaned on the boy's shoulder, and the boy smiled a little nervously.
Huang Mo suddenly seemed to be struck by a bolt of lightning, and his limbs trembled violently.
This face is very similar to the fall of the city when he was young. No, it should be said that it is a falling city.
So, standing next to him, is it?
She stood up, her fingers tightened, and slowly stretched towards the memory, feeling her heart beating in her ears, and she could even hear her own heavy breathing clearly.
The woman smiled sweetly at the people next to her.
Her fingertips touched the man's face, and the hot touch seemed to pass through the thin wall, as if it was about to burn her soul.
But that's it, Huang Mo still didn't want to let go, her whole face was going to be stuck on the wall, staring at the smiling woman with wide eyes, wanting to engrave her appearance in her heart.
Na Mother?
She called out from the bottom of her heart.
It's you, right?
Her tears crackled and blurred the woman's beautiful eyebrows.
"What are you doing?" Suddenly, there was an angry roar next to him, and a person walked quickly and pulled the girl on his back, and the other hand clasped the spell array on the wall, and when he saw the appearance of the comer, the roar that erupted was stiffly blocked in his throat, and he couldn't make a sound anymore.
“…… Mo'er?! Falling Cheng looked at the tearful Huang Mo in front of him in amazement, and was speechless in surprise.
“………… Father......! Huang Mo cried out bitterly, hugged the person in front of him, and trembled, as if he had suffered a great grievance.
Falling into the city was caught off guard, his whole body stiffened, he was stunned for a long time, and then he wrapped his arms around Huang Mo's shoulders, and said in a gentle tone that he didn't even notice it, "Don't cry, Mo'er ......"
"Woo woo"
"What a wayward child......"
A faint smile appeared on his face, and he turned his head to look at the formation on the wall, and the big man who had always been strong turned his eyes red.
Look, our children have grown so big. Seeing her cry when she misses you like this, and how scarred I am now.
Do you regret your original choice?
"Father, please, tell me the truth." After Huang Mo calmed down, she couldn't wait to grab the sleeve of the falling city and look at him firmly and sincerely.
Falling Cheng was just silent as always, maybe knowing that she couldn't prevaricate when she grew up, it was rare to look at her deeply, and her mind was thinking quickly.
Huang Mo knew that he was deliberately delaying time, but she was not the little kid who would only cry and find her mother back then. So she was not in a hurry, and took a sip of the cappucciro in front of her, and the rich milky aroma filled her mouth, which made her depressed mood a lot better.
She raised her head and looked at the formation, probably not much older, and her current self is quite similar to Nian Aiyin back then, such as eyes, such as mouth, but Nian Aiyin is much more beautiful than herself, and it is a kind of plain beauty without powder. Such a girl stood with a shy face next to the older boy who was a head taller than herself, with the endless sea behind her, and the reflection of the blue sky reflected her smile.
This was the memory of the first time she saw her mother, although the two were separated by a formation, and there were thousands of immeasurable distances, but Huang Mo also felt that the lost part of her heart seemed to be filled with inexplicable joy.
How sad and sweet this feeling is.
"Father, what kind of person do you say your mother is?" For the first time, Huang Mo calmly talked to Falling City about his mother.
"She." Falling City frowned, sighed, and responded rarely, "It's a very headache person." ”
"I'm obviously protected by others, but I always want to protect others. It's obviously a weak woman, but there is a strength in her bones that can't be pulled back by three cows. ”
"Competitive, self-esteem is very strong, like a sunflower can grow from the backbone, laughing every day without heart and lungs, always causing trouble, harming others is afraid of ......"
"But the popularity is still very good, she has a lot of friends, she is also beautiful, and there are many people who like her. Anyone who writes her love letters can throw me out of the three miles......"
"But my father, I still relied on the strength of not losing to her, grinding all the opponents to the point of losing patience, and it was a miracle that the two of them were together, I was really happy, and I liked me too."
"But...... If we hadn't been so impulsive, everything would have been different! Falling Cheng hugged his head in remorse, looking very painful, "If it weren't for my fault, the sound wouldn't be!" ”
He suddenly raised his head and bit his lip so hard that his face turned pale.
"It's time for you to go back. Moer. Falling City regained his composure in an instant, closed his eyes, took a deep breath and said.
Huang Mo showed a smile that he knew he would be like this, "Father, you don't have to think about how to hide it from me." She quietly took out a file folder, looked at the panicked face of the falling city for a moment, and said calmly, "I know everything." ”
The face of the fallen city alternated between surprise and grief and indignation, and finally it was as if he had been defeated by something, and the whole person collapsed in his seat.
In the middle of the night, he spoke in a deep voice, and his voice was as hoarse as if he had aged ten years.
"Come with me."
Huang Mo grew so big and entered the cloud city for the first time to work in the falling city, inside the towering building outside, behind the tall revolving door is an extraordinarily spacious hall, surrounded by polished marble pillars, and above his head hangs a huge crystal lamp with an iron chain ceiling, shining around as if it were day.
Falling all the way to the top, he was greeted by other mages, who just nodded without saying a word, striding forward, as if afraid that the slightest pause would affect his steps.
They stopped in front of a fortified gate with the words "White Tiger Gate" written on it
He quickly opened the door, turned sideways and let Huang Mo walk in first, and then looked around vigilantly as if he was afraid of something, and even when he closed the door, he was extremely careful.
As soon as the door closed, the falling city exhaled as if it had laid down a burden. Turned to Huang Mo and said, "Come here." ”
The place where the city fell to work was as simple as he was, except for a huge splash in the middle
The ink portrait is only monotonous black and white, and the huge hall is only bookshelves and tables, and if it is not for the table top, the floor is also dusty, as if no one has used it for a long time.
Falling Cheng walked straight to the portrait, and then stretched out his hand in front of the splashed ink picture, I don't know what he pressed, there was a sound of brushing around, and the black curtain instantly sealed the surroundings airtightly.
Then there was a click, and under Huang Mo's surprised gaze, the portrait actually slowly rose up, and then revealed a mirror that shone faintly in the dark.
"Ready to get started? Moer. Falling City turned, his face so tense that his voice seemed to tremble, "If you're ready, go inside." ”
"This is ......" Huang Mo was stunned, she couldn't forget it in her dreams, wasn't this the mirror of her aunt and in the Ziyan house? Could it be that there is more than one mirror in this mirror?
"Walking in?"
"Yes." Falling Cheng calmed down, his face was calm and solemn, and he couldn't see anything unusual, "It's just that the rest of the way can only be walked by yourself." ”
Huang Mo bit his mouth and walked up resolutely, it seemed that this mirror was no different from the ordinary one, but after getting closer, he felt that the mirror seemed to be connected to something, exuding an icy aura.
She couldn't contain her excitement, looked at the determined eyes of the falling city, took a deep breath, and plunged headlong into it.
Huang Mo used too much force, and after passing through the mirror, she staggered a few steps and tripped over something, and then fell on a very soft object, she hurriedly opened her eyes, but she didn't expect that what came into view was actually a bed.
