Chapter 56: The Breeze and the Moon
Narumi Yu watched Imadegawa Chisaka walk towards the depths of the cemetery, but in the end he didn't go in.
Not because of fear.
It's because, in the final analysis, he is just an outsider, and it was through various coincidences that he met Imadegawa Chisaka, who gradually lost his place in the world.
In a place like someone else's cemetery, he also trespassed into it without permission, which is not suitable after all.
Let's follow the route that Imadegawa-sama said and climb up the mountainside to see Kyoto at night......
The cool breeze gently shook the leaves, and the cries of various insects could be heard from time to time among the trees on both sides of the muddy path, which sounded far away in the silent night.
It's a long way to go, after all, you want to get to the point where you can see almost all of Kyoto. It is obviously not possible to go too low.
Lin Zi blocked the already slightly dim moonlight, and Narumi turned on the flashlight of his phone, and the oval white circle of light shone on the ground, at least allowing him to see the road under his feet.
"It's almost one o'clock in the morning, and even if you climb up, you can't see anything, right?"
When they came out of Zhutian, the street lights had already been extinguished.
Narumi couldn't help but yawn and complained slightly.
But I still climbed the mountain road unhurriedly.
Even if he can't see anything, at least it gives him material to write light novels.
And although there is no bright moonlight tonight, there are many twinkling stars.
The starry sky in the open area is also a scenery worth looking forward to.
He saw the walking lantern that Imadegawa Chisaka said, which was quite old, and the light source relied on fire, and it was naturally not lit if no one lit it.
Next to the lantern is a bamboo forest, the wind blows and the bamboo shadow sways on the bluestone pavement next to the lantern.
He couldn't help but wonder why there were bluestone slabs paving further up here, but there was nothing on the road ahead.
It could be local materials, or it could be that the terrain was gentle and didn't need to be paved, and the question that popped into his mind was like what he had worked so hard to climb up for, and he didn't have to find a definite answer.
……
"Here we are."
Narumi Yu looked at the place that had obviously been taken care of and breathed a sigh of relief.
An area on the edge of the cliff is not too small, paved with stone slabs similar to those on the road when you came, and only some weeds grow between the cracks of the stones. The trees and bamboos were all cleaned up, leaving only a four or five meter high maple tree, at this time the maple leaves are golden red, but unfortunately the whole picture cannot be seen clearly at night.
There are stone benches and tables under the maple tree, and a stone lamp stands at the foot of the maple tree.
Narumi turned off the light shining at the maple tree, walked straight to the front, and lay down on the stone table.
Climbing a mountain was really difficult for him with only four points of physical strength, and when he finally arrived at his destination, he had no strength in his body.
[Rapid Lv.2 (54/100)]
After climbing such a long way, he only added more than ten points, which is about the same as his daily morning run.
The 4 HP shows no signs of changing.
It seems that the system is not as powerful as he thought.
It's just that his efforts are more likely to be rewarded than ordinary people. If you want to get something for nothing, you can be proficient in everything without doing anything, which is obviously impossible.
Maple leaves, stars, breezes, moons.
Narumi looked at the night sky half-hidden by the maple leaves for a long time, listening to the distant sound of the wind and insects in his ears.
The heart slowly calmed down.
Take a commemorative photo until you have to leave, and the light and sound of your phone will ruthlessly destroy this rare silence.
He closed his eyes quietly, and his voice became clearer.
Compared with the noisy cars and horses in the city, under the silence of the mountains and forests, it is easy to hear where the wind is coming from and where the insects are sounding.
He suddenly felt that he was somewhat similar to the stars in the sky, rootless like duckweed, lonely in the sky.
There are stars all around, but I don't know how far apart they are, so far away that it feels like two worlds.
