The cool breeze of the evening blows her sea-blue hair, and her fairy-like face is smiling quietly, but if you are keen enough, you will find that there is a trace of loneliness hidden in the girl's blue eyes, and her gaze has been falling on Old Vinci.

Old Finch turned his back and looked at the woods, and he didn't notice that the girl he was thinking about was standing behind him.

She's always been here, she's always been here.

Never left.

The cold moonlight fell between the two of them, like a ruler, separating the Qingquan Elf from Old Vinci, and measuring the space-time distance between the girl and the old man.

One is still in his prime, but the other is old.

The girl noticed Lin Ye's gaze, and she moved her eyes slightly, returning her curious and inquiring gaze.

"Can you see me?" The girl asked.

The sound is as clear and pleasant as the murmuring of water.

Before Lin Ye could respond, Old Vinci noticed the change in the focus of Lin Ye's gaze, and seemed to be looking behind him.

Old Finch turned, empty.

"What are you looking at?" Old Vinci asked.

Lin Ye was silent for a while, he didn't know whose question to answer first.

Old Vinci saw Lin Ye's silence, at first he just crossed a trace of doubt in his heart, and suddenly a flash of inspiration, suddenly realized something, his old face trembled faintly, and Old Vinci asked urgently.

"Did you see her? Her hair is blue, the color of the sea, and her eyes are the color of emerald agate......"

Lin Ye calmly looked at the old man telling the appearance of the person he admired, even after decades, Old Finch still did not forget the amazing sinking when he first saw the spring elf turn into a human form, and still cherished the bits and pieces when he was with the spring elf.

The task of the system did not require Lin Ye to achieve Old Vinci's obsession, but to understand.

It is enough to understand and know the story of Old Vinci and the spring elf, precisely because of the simplicity of the task, the reward is also 20 original stones.

Lin Ye thought for a moment and asked.

"Can you tell me a little bit about your acquaintance with the spring elves?" Lin Ye asked.

“…… Do you believe it?"

"I believe it."

"Okay."

Old Vinci is no longer flustered and anxious, the years have given him thoughts and precipitation, decades have passed in waiting, and now he is not in a hurry.

"The Heart of Clear Spring" records the story of Old Vinci's unexpected encounter and love with the newly awakened elf when he was a teenager.

Finch's parents are at odds, often quarrelling, and even domestic violence, and Finch intervenes in the middle, enduring his parents' anger to vent on him, and once runs away from the family, sobbing alone in front of the unintentional spring.

The moonlight is like flowing water, perhaps it is the sound of a teenager's crying, or it may be the tears of a teenager falling into the spring, and the emotions contained in it awaken a spirit.

She had just woken up, lost her memory and wisdom, and was only attracted by the fragile young life of the teenager, and heard the boy's resistance to the heart.

The kind and inquisitive spring water spirit wipes away the tears of the boy.

The boy thus saw the legendary spring elf, and he remembered all kinds of legends and prayed to the spring elf.

"Can you grant my wish?"

"Getting my parents back together?"

The slightly ignorant Qingquan Elf couldn't speak, she just nodded gently, without strength and wisdom elves, she couldn't help the boy, what she could do was to share her joy in life and share the boy's troubles.

Tears flow into the pool, and the elves purify them and transform them into a fountain that brings good dreams to the boys. The boy forgot all the pain of waking up, and met the silent spirit in the spring of his dream. At this time, in the pool water dissolved by the moonlight, the sleeping elves also showed a smile. The dew moistens the dreams of the boy, and the dreams of the boy also moistens the lonely elf.

The pure water elf habit is to like to fuse, but this spring water elf is unique, she is lonely, and the teenager is also lonely.

Two lonely people together, but not so lonely.

In the dream, the spirit of the spring told the boy about the distant land of water, about the sapphire hometown, about the nostalgia of the exiles, and sighing about the departure and homecoming. The boy became a silent listener, weeping over what happened to her and rejoicing in her happiness.

As time passed, the fairy of the spring learned about the wider world beyond the spring from the mouth of the young man, and as the boy gradually grew up, he learned more and what love was.

The Qingquan Elf does not have the seven emotions and six desires of humans, but she vaguely feels the change in the boy's attitude towards herself.

This heavy love overwhelmed the spring elf, and she understood life better than she had at first.

The flower of life is splendid and easy to pass away.

Compared with the near-eternal lifespan of the spring spirits, the lifespan of humans is like a mayfly in the water, passing away easily.

Human beings are also fickle creatures, and the teenagers who grew up still love her, but what about the future?

The spring elf is not sure how he will feel when he faces his face after Vinci turns into snow like green silk at dusk.

Will you blame yourself for wasting your life for a childish promise?

More importantly, the spring elves are afraid of falling too deep, and Finch is destined to leave him, and the pain of separation from the spring elves will only be more painful.

After all, elves were born to be more delicate and sensitive creatures than humans, and through the eyes of the young man, she saw the longing that could not be concealed, and the promise that was about to be blurted out.

The slender elf couldn't bear to witness the irreversible arrival of that day, so she stopped the boy with a kiss.

How dull the boy is, and how dull the elf is.

The boy mistook the elf's cold kiss of refusal for an endorsement of the promise.

Elves don't know what a kiss means to humans, especially when they want to make a lifelong commitment.

At that moment, the Qingquan Elf made up his mind to leave the boy.

And the boy made a vow to be by the spring forever.

After that, there is no doubt about the departure of the elves, the self-doubt of the teenager, and the encounter with the spring elves as a ridiculous dream.

But all kinds of real experiences can't make the boy believe, it's just a dream.

So, the lonely boy stood by the spring, waiting, waiting, waiting

The elf in the pool stubbornly turned his back, not going to see him, not going to see him, and it was a stalemate for decades.

Legend has it that whenever a heavy rain falls, the raindrops that fall into the pond are always mixed with the tears of the spring spirits.

When the boy finally grew old, he still believed in such nonsense.

Unfortunately, the fountain spirits, who have escaped from their true hearts, are equally unable to dispute these facts.

…………

By the end of the story, Old Vinci had already burst into tears.

"A very sad story." Shenhe said.

Lin Ye turned around, and at some point Shenhe stood behind him.

It turned out that Shenhe, who was fighting the pillow fight, had been paying attention to the movement next door and heard the sound of the door opening next door, so Lisuo "solved" Klee and Noelle, went out of the room, and left the hotel to find the woods.

Shenhe stepped forward and stood beside the woods.

The spring elf stood behind Old Vinci.
