Chapter 2: The Gray Sky

With the turmoil on the mainland, Great Xia will soon become the target of everyone, and how long can the land of Great Xia be quiet! The hundreds of millions of souls who have passed away in Great Xia do not know.

A day passed, two days passed...... After a long time, when the ten sunsets and rising days and nights ended, the entire Lanye Imperial City, the ancient capital of Qinglan, and the billions of territories of Great Xia became a paradise of ashes. In the Qinglan Ancient Capital, I don't know that from that night, a cyan light mask ten meters square was shrouded, and if you look closely, you will find that it is simply another world.

There is lush grass and flowers, and there is a figure lying in this grass, which is like a long time of death, and his body is condensed at some point, and at this time countless points of light are converging into his body. As if summoned by something, his face gradually regained some ruddyness, and he could clearly feel that his breath had returned to normal. It's just that those closed eyes still don't show any signs of awakening.

Time passes......

I don't know that from that day on, there were many more people in Great Xia overnight, wandering people. They looked wooden and always played in circles. The eyes are colorless, blind, and hesitant. Children, adults, old people, men and women, some dressed in silk and satin, some cloth, may have been so glamorous and beautiful at the same time, but now there is only a dull gray.

Everyone's eyes were all looking in one direction at this time, there was the capital of Great Xia, the place of belief of the Great Xia people, where there used to be their king, where there was a Yunxian Mountain, where it was the closest place to the sky.

But at this time, there was nothing anywhere, only a faint light curtain shining in the glow, as if to tell the world that there was still a lamp in Daxia, and the soul of Daxia was like this lamp, the lamp would not be extinguished, and the soul was still there! Those people all looked at the light curtain, and from time to time they showed a trace of confusion, did they recall something? That confusion came quickly, and it went away quickly.

The wind was loud, the light curtain gradually disappeared, and the emperor woke up leisurely. "Am I not dead?"

"Father, where are you?" shouted one after another, Di Luo was very scared in his heart at this time, and he still didn't want to accept the reality.

Step by step, Emperor Luo walked very carefully, everything around him was very unfamiliar, he didn't dare to make a loud noise, for fear of disturbing something.

After walking for a long time, Emperor Luo looked ahead and suddenly looked happy, and exclaimed, "Father!" It turned out that there was a man not far in front of him, wearing an imperial crown and a dragon robe, wasn't he the former Great Xia Emperor "Qi"?

Emperor Luo ran to the front of a hug, in this strange world he saw his father, and found a backer in his heart. He wanted to hug his father tightly, but who knew that when the emperor fell forward and hugged him, all he got in exchange was the cold ground. "Poof!" the ground erupted in a burst of ash.

"How could this be?" Di Luo didn't understand in his heart, he was so hard just now, why did he fall, he thought he must be too excited to see clearly.

Get up, pat the dust on your body, look at your father not far away, Di Luo hugged him again, he just saw his father smile. Emperor Luo felt that his father must be laughing at his embarrassment.

Poof! Another fall, the cold ground is once again close to the emperor, how can this be.

Soon Emperor Luo stood up again, this time he did not rush over, looking at his father not far away, he walked over slowly, stretched out his hand and slowly touched it.

Call!...... It was not his father but the air that was within reach, and Emperor Luo waved his hand vigorously, and he wanted to grasp it hard.

The palm wind blew, and Emperor Luo found that his father had moved a few steps to the left so lightly. A bad thought sprouted in Emperor Luo's mind, and Emperor Luo remembered that his father had told him before that when one day you found the people closest to you, you could see but couldn't touch them, they had actually gone to another world, and all you saw was their nostalgia for the world, and the remnants of the shadow.

Isn't the other world just dead? Emperor Luo knew very well what his father was talking about at that time, because his queen mother went to another world.

Emperor Luo didn't believe it, he shouted vigorously: "Father, you promise, Luo'er is afraid of a person, father...... Don't go."

I don't know how long he shouted, Di Luo's voice has reached the limit, he can't make any sound, but he still opens and closes his mouth, he thinks about the next one, he shouts again, and his father will definitely come back.

I don't know about Xia Yan, how can I understand the sad autumn!

After a gust of wind, Xia Qi was blown far away, and the distant emperor couldn't catch up.

I don't know when there were many more figures by Di Luo's side, many familiar figures, and he looked at those figures and hugged each other without hesitation.

"Grandpa Yan, father-in-law next to my father, treat me very well, he must recognize me", Emperor Luo muttered in his mouth, running towards the nearest figure beside him, still poof!

Get up and pat the dust and change the target, "Isn't that Aunt Rong?" Di Luo shouted his name and pounced again, poof!

It's okay! Continue, Di Luo comforted himself, and ran to the target not far away again, "Nie Guard, Uncle Nie", a hug, a poof.

Again, poof......

"Grandma Zhao!"

Get up, come again, "Grandpa Li", poof.

Come again, after a dozen times, Emperor Luo's eyes turned into tears, and his unyielding belief made him change one goal for another.

Twentieth, Emperor Luo meditated in his heart.

Poof...

The thirtieth, poof!

Fifty!

Hundred!

Poof!

I don't know how long, I don't know how many, from the initial familiar figure, to now as long as it is a figure, the emperor will hug each other, even if the result is the same, he is still insisting, is he stupid? Maybe!

The earth god was full of tears and a resolute smile on his lips, and he told himself, "Rest! Come again."

From early morning to evening, Di Luo repeated the same thing, his hands had been worn out, his face was covered with blood, and his stomach was growling unpleasantly, but that faith had been supporting him, how he hoped that his next hug would be exchanged for a response, a warm body.

Thousands of miles of ashes flew in the sky, the stars and the moon were invisible, and the emperor was lying on the ground, muttering in his mouth: "For the monarch, close to the people like a son, think about what the people need, should be within the reach of the people, no, proud, contempt, show to people." As a monarch, he is broad-minded, swallows rivers and mountains, and ...... in a word, "This is the only thing that Xia Qi left to Emperor Luo, and he taught Emperor Luo how to be a good king when he was young."

After muttering over and over again, Emperor Luo fell asleep, and the world of Great Xia returned to silence. A figure came from the night and stayed beside Emperor Luo. It was Xia Qi, he stood there and looked at Emperor Luo tightly, his eyes had a look of brightness for the first time, a faint throbbing look. From the early night to the dawn, Xia Qi did not move a single bit, and finally at the moment of dawn, Xia Qi pounced on Emperor Luo.

...... Silently, he suddenly woke up in his sleep.

Father, don't go!" the emperor exclaimed in his sleep, and he scrambled to his feet, looking around for the familiar shadow in his dream. Just now, when the emperor fell, he dreamed that his father came to his side, and the queen mother looked at him like that and smiled, stroked his forehead, and told him: "Life is a long road, father, the queen mother can no longer accompany you, from now on you have to be stronger, remember that you are the royal family of Great Xia, the last bloodline of the Great Xia family."

You have to live, live, you have to understand that you are not living for you, but for the hundreds of millions of people of Daxia, who live on behalf of me and your mother, no matter how difficult it is. And then it disappeared like a dream.

Emperor Luo looked around in disappointment, the surroundings were still foggy, where was the appearance of his father everywhere he could see, and where was the smile of the queen mother, but just now his father looked at his expression, and the instructions in the mother's ear were so clear, and he could even feel the slightest warmth, if it was a dream, why was it so real? Emperor Luo was very suspicious in his heart, he felt that his father and queen mother must have been by his side, and he had left something.

With the doubts in his heart, Di Luo began to walk into the distance again, and met people along the way, many people in thorn skirts and cloth clothes, he would stretch out his hand every time he walked by, even if it was still air in exchange, he did not give up. He told himself that he would remember every face, and one day in the future he would set up a tomb, add a handful of soil, and light a stick of incense, and although he did not know his name, at least let them know that someone remembered that they had been to this world.

Emperor Luo walked through the countless crowds, towards the front, the front......

It was another sunset, at the foot of a green hill in the early morning, Emperor Luo looked at the green in front of him in a daze, and couldn't help but be happy, he turned his head with all his last strength, knelt down and kowtowed, two tear stains crossed the corners of his eyes, and murmured: Father, I finally came out of the queen mother. He picked up a wisp of soil in his hand, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it in bitterness and numbness, leaving the taste of Daxia in his mouth.

Raising his head, he saw that the sky was still a monotonous gray, and then a wave of dizziness hit, and Emperor fell to the ground unconscious.
