After thinking about it, he just shook his head, and followed Xiaoyu's footsteps and slowly walked towards the phoenix tree.

Xiaoyu stopped and straightened her back slightly.

Her body was still shaking, but it was not because of the cold...... Maybe it's because of a chill, or maybe it's disappointment?

It was a long time before she spoke again.

"Carve a name and make a memorial, right?"

Her voice was calm, but this proposal, no matter how you look at it, seems a little abrupt.

In a trance, there seems to be some meaning of farewell in it.

Wan Hongzhuang was stunned for a moment, and a bad premonition suddenly sprouted in his heart, but due to the current situation, he didn't want to ask, so he just nodded and silently replied "Okay".

Although, this thing is indeed a bit uncivilized......

But in such a delicate situation, it seems ...... to raise objections There's always something that doesn't fit the way.

"That's it...... Slightly engraved below, you and my name. ”

Xiaoyu's voice was faint, as if she was talking to herself, and it seemed like she was pleading.

"Hmm...... It's all up to you. ”

His heart softened inexplicably, Wan Hongzhuang shook his head and replied in a low voice.

Xiaoyu didn't look back.

He just lowered his body and picked up a slightly sharp stone from the side, "Where is it carved?" ”

Hands rustle over the rough bark.

Dressed in a white dress, the dim light, and the dust scattered in the night sky, shrouded in light spots...... Everything is like a timeless famous painting, deeply engraved into Wan Hongzhuang's mind.

She was searching, her expression was so focused, even ...... Reverent.

Suddenly, Wan Hongzhuang seemed to think of something, and the whole person instantly panicked.

"Wait......"

He remembered the first time he went back, when he saw his name on this phoenix tree.

The bridge that was supposed to appear in this plot actually appeared in that timeline early!

At that time, he thought that the dream caused the confusion of memory, and then some of the confusion reactions......

He didn't know what that meant.

However, if Xiaoyu is allowed to see his name on this tree, then ......

He couldn't help but feel a little trepidated.

The name that should have been engraved now appeared in advance...... In the middle, there is obviously a problem.

Even, his memory, their existence, may become a problem.

It's almost a paradox!

Thinking of this, he hurriedly stepped forward, came to Xiaoyu's side, and gently held her hand.

A bit of ice.

Xiaoyu was a little flustered, her face instantly turned red, she lowered her head, and asked in a whisper, "You...... What's wrong? ”

"No, nothing ......"

With her hand moving up slightly, Wan Hongzhuang took the stone from her hand and explained, "This kind of thing, it's better to leave it to me, after all...... Well, I have a lot of strength. ”

Ridiculous excuses, clumsy!

It's just that, in such a night, all the absurdity seems to become a matter of course.

"Well, it's up to you."

Wan Hongzhuang took the stone, carefully avoided Xiaoyu's sight, and looked for traces of the past on the tree.

It's just that when he searched all the locations on the tree, he found that the three words "Wan Hongzhuang" that should have existed disappeared out of thin air.

It's like this memory is fictional, and it didn't exist at all.

"What are you looking for?"

Xiaoyu stepped forward curiously and looked at Wan Hongzhuang with a strange expression.

The eyes are full of inquiry, with cunning.

"Oh......" Wan Hongzhuang shook his head a little weakly, "I'm looking to see where it will be suitable." ”

"That's it."

Xiaoyu pointed to a certain place on the tree, "Anyway...... It's just a message of memory, and it doesn't need to be ...... So formally. ”

"Uh-huh." Wan Hongzhuang nodded perfunctorily.

Then the names of the two were carved into the tree one by one.

"Wan Hongzhuang"

"Lu Xiaoyu"

Then step back and stand side by side with Xiaoyu to admire his masterpiece.

"Hmm...... It's pretty good. Wan Hongzhuang nodded, his expression still a little dazed.

To this day, he is still reeling from the shock of that earlier fact.

He didn't know exactly what had gone wrong, but he trusted his memory...... Mainly, the shock brought to him by the first backtracking was too great!

Of course, repeatedly shuttling between reality and dreams also made him a little dazed...... Whether my memories have really been tampered with, or whatever.

The word...... It's really ugly. ”

Xiaoyu lowered her head, and there was obviously a certain amount of emotional ups and downs in her voice, but she deliberately hid it.

"Uh......"

For a while, Wan Hongzhuang only felt speechless.

"Let's go, let's go home!"

"Well, go home!"

The street lamp stretched the figures of the two men...... It's just that all of a sudden, the pace of the two people slowed down at the same time and became very slow.

When they got home, the two didn't say much, and the experience of this day made both of them feel extremely tired.

After a little pleasantries, they returned to their respective rooms.

Wan Hongzhuang was lying on the bed, and suddenly, a strong sleepiness struck suddenly.

Despite his best efforts to dispel the sleepiness, his eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and finally, he fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, he reappeared on the long corridor.

Wan Hongzhuang smiled bitterly and shook his head...... Finally, this backtracking has come to an end.

No regrets.

In particular, the abundance of the heart, including the joy obtained, is incomparable to any previous backtracking.

It's just that......

He suddenly thought of the previous competition: after all, such a large prize money, including the possible upward channel, how would it affect reality?

Really, I'm looking forward to it!

At this moment, the dark corridor where he was suddenly lit up.

The walls on both sides of the corridor also began to rise and fall like waves, like human breathing.

Subconsciously, Wan Hongzhuang stepped forward and gently touched the wall to feel.

The lines on the top, compared with the previous times, began to be clearer and clearer, just like the ancient wood that has passed through the years, and the annual rings inside, layer by layer, circle by circle...... What it represents, perhaps, is time?

Looking up, the distance between the two light gates is getting closer and closer.

Even, they are approaching at a speed that is imperceptible to the naked eye...... In the end, it will probably coincide?

But what happens when they do?

Is it a complete blend of the two timelines, or will one memory completely replace the other? Will one completely replace another?

Will he be the same as he is now?

It may sound a bit awkward, but this is indeed Wan Hongzhuang's truest feeling at the moment.

He was a little scared.

Although he didn't know whether such a result was good or bad.

And also...... Xiaoyu's last expression was the kind of sadness that seemed to be nothing.

"Wait, light rain...... Who is Xiaoyu? ”

Suddenly, the memory of Egret Island faded like a tide in an instant and turned pale......
