Chapter 17: The Star That Never Died

"Although it is separated by glass, Tianjin Si is still so dazzling." The stars in the sky were still shining brightly, and the night sky was as bright as if it was decorated with diamonds. Liukai was stunned for a moment, then raised his head, turned to look in the direction of the entrance, and in the darkness, a graceful figure of a young girl slowly walked out.

As if he saw something in the ordinary, Liukai's head lowered again, and he asked in a light tone: "Is there something wrong?" Mengmi..."He lowered his head, looking at the feet on the ground that were sprinkled by the moonlight, listening to Mengmi's footsteps getting closer and closer, and her elongated shadow appeared on the ground, accompanied by her reply in the same light tone, with a puzzled rhetorical question.

"No, I just want to take a walk here, but shouldn't you go back to sleep?" Mengmi walked to Liukai's side, put her hands on the fence, leaned against the railing, and looked at Liukai, the light in her eyes surging slightly.

"I've just eaten so much, of course I have to relax and relax before I can go to sleep again!" Liukai put on a hung expression on his face again, stood in front of the railing, and began a long silence.

Monmi also stopped talking, and the two of them turned their backs to each other at staggered angles and were silent. The moonlight thoughtfully reconciles the silence, but it makes the otherwise silent atmosphere more abrupt. Gradually, for some reason, Liukai had the illusion that the two of them were back to back but began to get farther and farther apart. Almost at the same time, both of them turned their faces to each other, and their eyes that met with each other seemed to be hit by electrodes, and they quickly turned their heads, and they turned their heads +90 degrees more than before.

This suddenly made the originally silent atmosphere suddenly full of gunpowder, as if there was a feeling that war was about to break out. Perhaps because of her emotional excitement, Mengmi suddenly turned her head to stare at Liukai as if she remembered something, her eyes burning.

"You, what are you going to do?" Liukai obviously had an ominous premonition, which was surging towards him, his eyes deliberately avoided Mengmi's forced gaze, and looked into the distance at will, hiding a huge uneasiness in his weak question. Monmi seemed to notice his unnaturalness, and her tone began to become serious.

"Hey, I said Liukai, such a big thing, you must have felt it at the beginning, and you didn't even say anything to me. You ......" Mengmi said as she squinted her eyes and stared at Liukai as if she were torturing a prisoner.

"What, what? What are you referring to, I, why don't I understand? Liu Kai was still making senseless resistance, but his flickering eyes had already revealed his true mood at this time. Sure enough, I already felt in my heart that something was going to happen, and it seems that today's matter is really not over yet. Do you want to be beaten by the facts. Is it still going to be fulfilled? Oh my God, fate still can't be changed!

Mengmi's face became more and more ugly because of Liukai's pretending to be stupid, she didn't speak again, her eyes just stared at Liukai's restless appearance. Liukai was also thinking about how he could survive the disaster, when Mengmi suddenly asked in a completely wrong tone.

"Huh? You have asked about me, and since you have asked sincerely, then I will tell you with great mercy. Why do you know that we will lose, but you don't say it in advance? (How does it feel weird)

When Liukai heard Mengmi's question, the whole person was stunned for a moment, and he felt that a sentence was blurted out without warning. "In order to prevent the destruction of the worldly realm, in order to maintain the peace of the universe", this kind of answer that can't be beaten with eight strokes is uncontrollably said by himself, and even Liukai feels that it is really incredible. As if in an instant, the brain was short-circuited and connected to some special memory. (This, what's going on here?) I obviously want to explain, but I can't help but say this ridiculous line that even I feel ashamed of. )

"You guy, it's really because you haven't cleaned up for a long time, and you're getting more and more embarrassed?" Mengmi's uncontrollable anger, accompanied by a crackling beating, involved Liukai's not yet fully awake mind, along with his body. The fist that fell on his body like a raindrop knocked Liukai to the point that he had no power to fight back, and after the beating was over, Mengmi dropped this sentence angrily and turned to leave.

Looking at the back that gradually disappeared in the moonlight, Liukai sighed with a full face: "Lu, lucky! At the same time, he clenched his fists, and squeezed out an indignant sentence from his mouth: "Prevent the destruction of the world and maintain the peace of the universe?" It turns out that the amount of force can not only be used to destroy, but also to protect! Well, I'm so slow to be so slow, I'm really bad. Always preaching to others, in fact, it is me who is hopelessly guilty~"

Liukai didn't notice at this time that his bracelet began to emit a faint glow, and his emotions were completely immersed in everything just now, as if he was indulging in an illusory dream.

At this moment, also on the rooftop, a faint sentence resounded ethereal echoing in the air. "Tianjin Si is still so dazzling," said a dark shadow with a strong sense of oppression.

"Years ago"

"It's all because you led the way to get us into such a crisis. Now it's dark, and it's impossible to go back! Mengmi complained and whispered with a pout. And the reply that sounded at this time, the tone was full of unconvincing, and the person who refuted Mengmi was a sleepy face full of unhappiness.

"What's the solution? The decision of three people to explore is not something I forced you to come! Xiao Sleep's tone was very strong, looking at Mengmi on the side, and then Mengmi looked around, and said with a hint of uneasiness in his tone: "I heard that there are many monsters in the forest at night!" ”

"What's the matter, as long as you dare to threaten me, kill him!" Xiao Sleep replied to Mengmi with a nonchalant face, trying to dispel her worries. On the contrary, it was exchanged for Mengmi's more intense questioning: "Hmph, just know that the Dao is extinguished, extinguished, what's the use of extinguishing the light?" I ask you, can you make food? Even if we don't get attacked, we'll starve to death if we continue like this! ”

This series of rhetorical questions suddenly quieted Xiao Sleep, and he was silent and stopped talking, but he was thinking in his heart that if he really couldn't do it, he would destroy all this forest. Although he knew very well that this might cause his abilities to be overdepleted and he would be seriously injured, it seemed that there was no better way in front of him, and his eyes were full of disgust when he thought of this.

Although Mengmi had just spoken out to reproach Xiao Sleep's impulse, there was still an irrepressible sadness surging in her eyes, and she actually knew that now was not the time to quarrel, and when she lowered her head, she heard Liukai's voice with encouragement.

"Hey, I said you two, is it time to quarrel? And give up without effort, isn't it too early? Liukai's words made the two people who were originally silent raise their heads as if they had rekindled hope, and looked at Liukai in unison.

Mengmi and Xiao Sleep even tacitly called out Liukai's name, Liukai took two steps forward, and then began to say seriously: "Although there is no food now, our physical strength is still enough for a few days." If you give up now, then the civil strife will really be over. ”

"But what do we do? The positioning prop is broken, and in the dark of night, we can't make out the direction at all. Even though Liukai tried to encourage the two of them to regain their confidence, Mengmi still said sadly. (It would be nice if it was a sunny day) Liukai suddenly had such a thought in his heart, and it flashed. Then he looked up at the dark night sky and seemed to be praying secretly.

And the night sky changed unbelievably when the three of them looked up at the same time, and in the dark sky just now, slowly, the clouds began to move slowly, and then gradually dispersed. The bright moonlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, staggered on the ground, and the white light and shadow on the ground reflected their shadows.

"Great, there's light!" Liukai pointed to the shadow on the ground and said excitedly. But Mengmi behind him still looked immersed in sadness, not happy at all because of the sudden appearance of the moonlight, and continued to say pessimistically: "But what can it be? We don't know where to go, isn't it? ”

"Wait, that star is..."At this time, Liukai suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the dazzling and shining star in the north, hesitated for a moment, and then said in an extremely certain tone: "Tianjin Four." Hearing the name of this star, Xiao Sleep and Mengmi looked at Liukai with puzzled expressions, staring at Liukai with their eyes, as if waiting for the correct answer he gave next.

"Hah! If I'm not mistaken, that star is especially bright in the summer, and for a long time it has been in one direction. So, if it's determined that the location is north, everything will be easy to say! After Liukai finished speaking, the expression on his face became unusually relaxed, and at this time, Mengmi and Xiao Sleep came to the spirit, and the two of them asked excitedly at the same time: "Really?" Then let's try it! ”

Under the guidance of this Tianjin four, the three people who had regained their spirit and strength began to move forward in the direction of judgment, along the way, Liukai determined the position of the stars from time to time, Xiao Sleep and Mengmi also carefully judged the direction of each road, and when they finally left the forest smoothly, the two shouted in unison.

"Great!" Mengmi showed a bright smile on her face, Xiao Sleep also stretched out her arm hard, looking relaxed to unload the burden, and then looked at the life-saving "Tianjin Four" that was still shining in the night sky. Liukai's sudden serious words suddenly broke the relaxed atmosphere, and the atmosphere became tense again.

"Don't be too happy, shouldn't you two apologize to each other?" Liukai's words first attracted Xiao Sleep's incredulous puzzled expression, and Mengmi beside him also frowned slightly, and the two of them asked puzzled at the same time: "Dao Lu apologizes?" ”

"That's right, I'm sorry! Have you forgotten that we are friends? Since they are friends, how can they blame each other in the most difficult time? Liukai said to the two of them seriously, and his words made Mengmi and Xiaoxiao bow their heads guiltily after listening to them.

The shadows of the two people were illuminated by the bright moonlight, and the twinkling stars seemed to be witnessing the conversation between the three of them, and the Tianjin four hanging in the northern sky was flickering faster and faster at this time, as if it was deliberately urging Xiao Sleep and Mengmi.

"I'm sorry, Mengmi, it's me who is not good, my tone just now was too heavy, don't take it to heart." Xiao Sleep was quite generous and apologized to Meng Mi Dao first, and then looked at her with some embarrassment. At this time, Mengmi also pouted, looked at Xiao Sleep, showed a childish smile, and conveyed his apology to him: "Me too." Xiao sleep, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so excited just now, and my words were also because I was worried, so don't be angry with me. ”

Mengmi and Xiaoxiao apologized to each other, both of them looked at each other stupidly and laughed, Liukai stepped forward at this time, grabbed the two of them at the same time, and then said with a smile: "Hey! That's right, we're the best friends! ”

When a slow sound of footsteps echoed on the rooftop, a figure suddenly emerged from the darkness like a ghost, and this rhythmic clicking sound also shattered the thoughts of Xiao Sleep's memories.
