Chapter 17: The stars will show you the way
Regarding the thoughts in Phinex's heart, Lin Jue had no idea. Now, he is still quietly looking at this quiet night sky, and he is using his limited astronomical knowledge to discern the starlight in the sky.
"The stars of this world are so beautiful. Lin Jue said.
"Are the stars of your world different from this world?" asked Phinex.
Lin Jue shook his head: "No, the starry sky is still exactly the same, but in my hometown, in most places, you can't see the stars." ”
As if sensing Lin Jue's dull mood, Fenix kept silent. The sea breeze was whistling past my ears, bringing with it a whining sound.
"Homesick?" asked Fenix.
Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "If you don't want to, that's a lie." But I can't help it, it looks like I can't go back. ”
Fenix was stunned and said, "Why, as long as you complete the mission of the witch, won't you be able to go back?"
"You don't understand. Lin Jue said: "It's been half a year, not to mention that the witch's mission has no clue, I'll go back now, maybe I've only been missing for half a year, and when the mission is really completed, ten years, or twenty years?
"It's even more timid to be close to home!"
Phinex returned to Lin Jue and sat down, and said with a smile: "What, you have figured it out now? Do you plan to make a contribution here, complete the task for the witch, and then capture the beautiful woman in the Orlante Palace, and finally live here?"
"Perhaps. ”
"When I first came to this world, I was very excited, after all, I was bumped into such a mysterious and mysterious thing, I may have felt fresh at that time, right? But after a long time, I found that in addition to the different levels of science and technology, except for some strange things, what is the difference between here and my world?"
"If I continue to stay in that world, maybe I can be a little person and live a stable life. But here? I was not destined to live in peace. ”
Phenice asked, "So you're homesick?"
"yes. Lin Jue looked at the starry sky calmly and replied softly.
Phinex laughed, "Actually, you can find a way to make this world the same as your world, so that you don't have so much sentimentality." ”
Lin Jue knew that Fenices was joking with him, so he smiled: "Yes, I can find a way to make this world the same as the earth." ”
The annoyance in Lin Jue's heart seemed to be even stronger, and Fenix was a little depressed, originally wanting to enlighten him and let him pour out his heart, maybe it would be better, but now it seems to be useless.
"Little Phoenix, where is your hometown?" Lin Jue asked.
Hearing this, Phoenixes was stunned for a moment and said, "My hometown?"
Phoenixes fell into deep thought, and after a long time said, "I was taken in by the witch when I was very young, and I have very little memory of my hometown, except that there is a huge plane tree, which obscures the sky and the sun, and in a valley, the huge canopy of trees obscures the whole valley. ”
"If I can fully grow up now, I will be able to obtain the memories of my past life, and by that time, my memories of my hometown will be even more profound, right?"
"Is it a plane tree that covers the sky?" Lin Jue muttered.
"Wait, you said you were taken in by the witch when you were very young?" Lin Jue wondered.
"yes, what's wrong?"
Lin Jue was puzzled: "But as far as I know, isn't the witch a disentity? How did she take you in? Could it be that she took you in in her dream?"
Phinex shook her head, "It wasn't me who she took me in, but someone else, according to the guidance of the witch-sama, took me in." Don't ask about anything else, there's only so much I can say. ”
Since she didn't want to say it, Lin Jue didn't plan to ask, Agnes gave Lin Jue the feeling that she was a very mysterious person, if she was really curious in the future, it was a big deal to ask her directly. But looking at the current state, it is estimated that there will be no witch in a short period of time.
Lin Jue stretched out his hand and grabbed it to the sky, as if he wanted to pluck the stars in the sky. This is just a subconscious move when you are bored, Lin Jue smiled and took his hand away.
But when he put his hand down, he was stunned, because the stars in the sky seemed to have changed their positions, as if they had been caught, and they were all gathered together.
"What's going on?" Lin Jue said in amazement.
Phinex wondered, "What's wrong?"
Lin Jue pointed to the sky and said, "How do I feel about the stars in the sky...... The location seems to have changed?"
Hearing this, Phoenixes raised her head and observed the night sky for a while, then turned around, looked confused, and said, "I don't think anything has changed." ”
"But......" Lin Jue looked at the sky, the starry sky that he held just now, the stars were still all gathered together, like a pile of sand, pinched by himself.
"Hasn't it changed?"
Maybe it's an illusion, Lin Jue thought to himself, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the sky again, but the stars still gathered together as if they had been pinched.
"Forget it, nothing. Lin Jue said. He thought of the scene before he came into this world, the sudden fall of daylight and night, the twinkling stars in the sky, and the constantly changing notes, and the confused looks in the eyes of the people he asked for help.
"Maybe it's really a hallucination, right?" Lin Jue thought, but he still stretched out his hand, treating the starry sky as a tabletop, and gently wiping it with his palm. He wanted to see if the scene was just an accident.
When he put his hand down, a magical scene appeared in the sky. The starry sky was like a pile of sand poured on a black tabletop, and the sand was the starry sky.
The sand was completely removed by Lin Jue's hands, and it was all scattered around, leaving a black space in the middle, in this black space, as if someone had deliberately applied glue, in addition to the sand gathered around, the rest of the sand was fixed by glue, and a string of symbols was condensed in the center, a string of symbols composed of stars.
"What is this?" Lin Jue exclaimed.
Fenicus turned her head suspiciously and looked at Lin Jue with a strange gaze.
"Forget it, nothing. Lin Jue shook his head.
"Sure enough, this strange phenomenon seems to be visible only to me. Lin Jue said secretly in his heart.
"What is this? some kind of omen?"
He thought for a moment, squatted on the beach, stretched out his finger and stroked in the sand, drawing on the sand according to the strange string of symbols in the sky.
A voice sounded in Lin Jue's head: "When you are lost, the stars will show you the way." ”
This is what Agnes said to him in the not-so-clear memory of Lin Jue's halfway to Dawning City before.
"When you are lost, the stars will show you the way. Lin Jue kept muttering this sentence in a low voice.
Fendex patted Lin Jue's shoulder suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong with you? It's a little strange from just now, are you tired? Do you want to go back and rest for a while?"
After being silent for a while, Lin Jue smiled and said, "Maybe, let's go back." ”
He turned his head and looked again at the strange string of symbols on the beach. When he looked up at the sky again, the whole starry sky was back to its original state, and the scene just now was like an illusion, so unreal.
