[Oh my God, how did you get here?] When Yuan Xi was about to step out of the door of this auditorium that had become like a mourning hall, another girl-like voice suddenly sounded in her heart, and this "voice" appeared in the form of Yuan Xi's own thoughts, as if Yuan Xi herself was imagining that someone was talking in her heart, but in fact, it was not that she was really thinking about something, but that there was another being communicating with her with her thoughts.

"Sunset? Are you awake? Yuan Xi blurted out, if it seemed to outsiders that she was talking to herself, but then, someone behind Yuan Xi tapped her on the shoulder.

Yuan Xi turned her head to look, and happened to see her own shadow break away from her body, condensing into a black girl figure behind Yuan Xi, but this figure is not a two-dimensional shadow, but a three-dimensional form of a girl's figure, Yuan Xi really didn't expect that her own shadow could come to life.

"It's not that I woke up, it's that you broke into my world on your own!" Sunset Shadow said anxiously, Yuan Xi had never thought that talking to her own shadow would be such a feeling.

"Your world? What exactly is this place? Did you see the girl who looked exactly like me? Who is she? Yuan Xi asked.

"This is the spiritual world, the world that is completely idealistic, everything here is the reflection of the human mind, if the real world is the material that determines the spirit, here is the spirit that determines the material, everything is created by the idealism, and only in such a world, can a pure consciousness like me be completely projected and appear as an entity."

"You mean, the girl who ran out earlier was also a projection of my consciousness?"

"I don't know."

"Is there anything else you don't know?"

"Even if it is the inner spiritual realm, it is not completely rotating with your thoughts, the inner spiritual realm, it can be said that I don't know how many people share the common consciousness mapping, countless hearts work together, countless consciousness seas affect each other, it can be said that this is a dream that countless people have together. Who knows if it's a ridiculous idea of yours, or a strange dream of someone else? I just hope it won't be ......" Sunset Shadow's voice suddenly lowered, and she stopped talking.

"What won't it be?"

"It can't be the one who once had the name 'Yuan Xi' in the past, right?" Sunset said with some trepidation, "I've always suspected that she's not really dead. ”

"Can you tell me directly, what is the relationship between you, me, her, and the three of us? Your name is Xiying, my name used to be Yuan Xi, she is Yuan Xi in the past, what is it that connects the three of us? This feeling is getting stronger and stronger now, and sometimes, I don't know who I am at all......" Yuan Xi asked confusedly.

"I don't want to say it, I don't want to say it, I can't say it. The truth is too cruel to you, and I won't tell you if it doesn't take the necessary time. Sunset shook her head resolutely, Yuan Xi really didn't understand what she was trying to hide from herself, and what was the need to hide it from her. If the truth will come out one day, why do these eccentric people keep it secret? If fate is already cruel, why wait until it really shows its fangs before revealing the full picture of the situation to itself?

"Since she appeared in front of you, she must have her own purpose, then go find her, if she is really the Yuan Xi she used to be, she shouldn't have malicious intentions towards you." Sunset said meaningfully, "But if you really see her one day, I advise you to ......"

"Kill her." With this cold exhortation, Sunset's gaze was cold, and Sunset's expression was indifferent.

"What kind of grudge do I have against her, and why do you get to the point of such undying as you say? I don't even know who she is, so why should I kill her? Yuan Xi resisted and said, there are always people like Xiying who give such an order without any explanation, and they also say this for your own good, just like adults are laughing and coaxing children, blocking children behind them to prevent her from seeing those "real world" scenery, but Yuan Xi is now almost thirty people, can he be called a "child"?

"There can only be one Yuan Xi in the world, and the reason is as simple as that." Sunset didn't want to say more, her body collapsed again, and melted into Yuan Xi's shadow and fell behind Yuan Xi.

[I can change into that form at any time now, but after the battle just now, I'm still very tired and need to rest. So, just shout at me in your heart when you need my help, I can hear all your thoughts, and if there is nothing wrong, don't bother me. The voice of the sunset shadow sounded in her heart again, and then she fell silent, no matter how much Yuan Xi called her, she didn't move.

The appearance of the sunset shadow did not provide any comfort to Yuan Xi, on the contrary, it also added an ominous color to the elusive girl who did not say a word, "Yuan Xi", who was once supposed to be dead, now appears in this world as a projection of countless human minds, what does this mean?

Now she knows that there is another person watching in her spiritual world, she sometimes doesn't even dare to think about things, for fear that some secret thoughts in her head will be heard by Sunset, people's hearts, as the last space that belongs to human beings, are now also encroached upon by others, Yuan Xi has empty grievances but can't vent them, she can't shout at Sunset Shadow to get out by herself, right?

Because of the unsettling feeling of watching in his heart, Yuan Xi simply didn't think about it anymore and walked out of the door of the "Spirit Hall", as if he was in a different world.

Outside the auditorium, there is no doubt that there is still a quiet long night, the sky is eternally hung with a crimson moon, but in this so-called "inner spirit realm", even the blood moon has become a full moon, as big as a millstone in the sky, Yuan Xi has never seen such a big moon, even if it is the sunrise moment, I am afraid it will not be so exaggerated, and even she can clearly see the rippling craters and black spots on the blood moon...... Is the Blood Moon still a moon like a normal moon? Yuan Xi really couldn't understand what kind of thing this blood moon was, could it be that the so-called god was just a celestial body-like existence?

Yuan Xi walked along the long green aisle from the auditorium to the teaching building, on both sides of the aisle are the old yellow trees, behind the old trees is the tall fence built by the school, and the top of the wall is also wrapped with wire to prevent students from escaping over the wall.

Not only on both sides, Yuan Xi looked at the place behind her that was originally the school gate, there was naturally no way out behind her, the bright school gate leading to the outside world no longer existed at all, the road to the school cracked out of thin air, and the place where it should have been the gate was a bottomless cliff, and there was darkness and fog surging under the cliff, Yuan Xi had already experienced two "cliff jumping" experiences in the spiritual world, and she didn't dare to gamble on luck again to try what would happen if she jumped from here.

Yuan Xi gave up the idea of escaping from the school gate, turned to look at the school and went up to the small garden walkway at the front door, and sure enough, she saw another Yuan Xi walking under a dead tree dozens of meters away, she put her two hands behind her, holding the half-withered black mandala, walking gently step by step, ****'s feet stepped on the cold ground bricks, the crimson lace skirt on the lower body fluttered with the breeze, her black hair flowing like a cloud, and the whole person was unrealistically beautiful. It seems that the next moment it will shatter into countless pieces like glass.

On the dead trees where the girl walked, there were green shoots sprouting, and the buds bloomed at a speed visible to the naked eye, blooming on the trees one after another, and they were bright red cherry blossoms like blood, adding shocking reds to this dark corridor shrouded in mist, like the corners of a beauty's smiling mouth, the tender lips, and the pink tongue, as if black and bright red were the only two hues left in this world.

She had been waiting for herself.

Yuan Xi had heard that there were cherry blossom trees on both sides of the green road behind the gate of No. 1 Middle School, which was a great wonder of Linyang No. 1 Middle School when it bloomed every spring, but she didn't expect that the first time she saw the cherry blossom avenue of No. 1 Middle School was in such a season, seeing such a strange and beautiful scenery.

Yuan Xi followed the girl step by step, not in a hurry, but as if she was stepping on an ancient ballad, there was an ancient rhythm between the lotus-like skirts, and it was like an eternal curse. No matter how fast or slow Yuan Xi's pace was, no matter whether Yuan Xi was running, jumping, retreating or advancing, the girl's back was always walking unhurriedly more than ten meters away in front of her, walking towards the fog ahead, Yuan Xi would never be able to catch up with her, but he would never be able to get rid of her.

She was like an afterimage, a ghost, a maggot-like shadow of a tarsal bone, and like the purest and most beautiful rainbow in the sky.

Where exactly are you trying to lead me? Yuan Xi suppressed the doubts in his heart and sped up his pace, this slope walkway that he had walked many times in the morning when he was in school before now he didn't know why it had become so long, so long that it gave Yuan Xi the illusion that he would never be able to walk forever.

Yuan Xi didn't notice that in the place she had entered, the blood-colored cherry blossoms on all the cherry blossom trees were withering and withering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the cherry blossoms on the trees fell one after another behind her, spreading all over the ground and then withering and shattering into dust and sand.

Two girls with the same face, one in front of the other, step by step, one step by step to bring the blooming life, the other step by step to bring the withering death, growth and death, singing and chanting on this short cherry blossom avenue.

Bloom and wither.
