Xiao Nai swam closer and closer, her face was like a snow-white flower that had lost its branches, falling into the water, drifting with the waves, lonely, stubborn, timid, but faintly full of murderous aura.

Closer, I could clearly see the small pale blue mole stuck to the middle of her forehead, the micromole that once belonged to the fairy Aoi, and now the only thing with color on Xiao Nai's face.

It seems that Zixia still lifts me up, "ruthless and rational", I really can't afford it.

I looked at the gray-white Xiao Nai, thinking of the dead Xiao Kui, the dissolved elderly fairy, and the fairy aunt who didn't know where in the world she was annihilated and lived and died with her friends, and I couldn't bear it for a while—why is this happening?

For thousands of years, the blood clan has been dormant underground, leisurely, long, brocade clothes and jade food, the earth is desolate, the biggest trouble is only the loneliness and melancholy brought by living too long, but what about them, these firefly elves, Mizusawa fairies, and those proud and arrogant, but also those human beings who see the wind and rudder, they struggle between life and death, their breathing is exchanged for their lives, their lives are exchanged for blood and their own children, when the sun sets, they don't know if they can see the sun tomorrow morning......

Why is this happening?

What did they do wrong?

"If you think about it any longer, I'm afraid you'll be like me, and your head will crack!" Zixia snorted coldly on my shoulder: "Don't think of yourself as a savior!"

"Why not!" I suddenly burst out of my chest: "I, Meiyi, will be the savior of all things in heaven and earth!"

As soon as the words fell, I felt like a thorn in my back, and I couldn't help but turn my head.

My brother, Huahai, Luoying and Jicheng, as well as Forget Words and Kazama, six people lined up, all stood behind me, looking at me, not speaking, with different faces and complicated eyes.

Time stands still in a moment. My gaze slowly slid over their frozen expressions.

Brother: It was as if he had planted a tree and grown a tiger, and there was a serenity in his face after the deepest despair, as if to say to me, "If you want to grow up, then eat me, as long as you want, my life is in your hands." ”

Painting: Tears flickered in her eyes, she tilted her chin up, both to stare at me and prevent her tears from slipping down, her lips slightly open, like a half-opened pink rose, both wanting to call me, but also trying to hold back and remain silent, making her face a mixture of helpless competitiveness and unwilling stubbornness - sister, please, don't lose the love in your heart, what I promised you will never change.

Luoying: He looked at me lazily, his eyes were like a pair of transparent wings, fanning my face as if they were nothing, refusing to stop, but he didn't fly far, cold, proud, dejected and beautiful face, waiting to see the show start - how do I think he is different again, after falling into the water for the second time, although he is safe and sound, but, it seems that something has changed.

Yosei: How can I say it, he stared at me, and there was a little joy and ...... on his face that he couldn't hide Little smugness, I had never seen such a look on his face before, he stared at me tightly, as if looking at the treasure that he had dug out, both excited and greedy, his nostrils were slightly open, and he inadvertently revealed an ambitious eagerness, which was very incommensurate with his delicate and shy face - wasn't Zixia mistaken, this kid in Jicheng was really "a lot of doubts"?

Kazama: This little girl, pouting, looked at me, her eyes lit up, and she looked yearning. Although there is still a faint disbelief on the delicate face, it is innocent and cute.

My eyes finally turned to Forget.

Only he looked at me gently, without any ups and downs on his face, and there was a kind of relief and ...... in his calm and beautiful eyes. Compassion, like a mother who sees her child go away, has an afterglow of letting go after seeing everything.

"Hehe, your words are a touchstone, making everyone show their sincerity," Zixia suddenly said coldly: "Meiyi, can you really see it?"

I just looked at me and forgot to speak, my eyes didn't shift, and I didn't say anything.

"Forget it," Zixia said gloomily, "what do you want to see on his face?"

"You're so penetrating, you don't know, ask me what to do?" I said lightly.

"I do...... I can see a very faint affection. Zixia said coldly.

The frozen time was shattered into powder, the blood suddenly began to flow again, and time continued to move forward, and a soft and firm voice behind him: "Meiyi, can you please pull me up?"

"Of course. As I spoke, I turned around and reached out to Minazawa's Kona.

She looked up at me, without the slightest resentment on her face, only trust.

My chest was hot and I took her hand and wanted to say something.

"Everything is the eldest aunt's own decision," Xiao Nai seemed to know what I wanted to say, stopped my words, and said softly: "She dissolved herself and made a bet with her life, and I am willing to respect her choice." ”

"But......" I thought that the old fairy's life had dissipated, and I was still obsessed with "secrets" and "answers", so why bother, I only said two words and shut up.

“...... I'm sorry. I added two more words.

"No, I don't. I have no distractions now, I just want to leave immediately, go to the ancient elven country, and bring back my aunt...... Meiyi, will you help me?" Xiao Nai came out of the water, her hand still held by me, and asked me quietly.

"It's a responsibility. I nodded heavily.

"Good. Xiao Nai said as she broke free of my hand, took off the burden on my back, and took out a long and transparent bottle from the bag.

She unscrewed the cap of the bottle, poured some dark green liquid from the transparent bottle into the cap, and handed it to me: "This is the 'good recipe' that your brother asked for from the eldest aunt just now, and it is the treasure of my water fairy's calming - 'soothing elixir', if you drink it, no matter how deep the waterway is, no matter how long it is, you can ensure that you can breathe normally in the water and stay safely, as if on the ground." ”

"Really?!" I was overjoyed and took the bottle cap, if that was the case, then we could come and go freely in the water, absolutely like a tiger!

"For thousands of years, our water fairies have relied on this 'Ze Breathing Agent' to survive in the water, how can there be a fake?" Xiao Nai held the long bottle in his hand, very determined.

I lifted the cap and was about to finish it when suddenly a hand reached over and took the cap.

It's a forgetfulness!

"Miss Xiao Nai," forgot to turn sideways slightly, in case I snatched the bottle cap back again, and asked softly, "Can you please tell me the principle of this 'soothing elixir', we know it in our hearts, and it is not too late to drink it." Thank you. ”

"Exactly. Please also let Miss Xiao Nai know. The elder brother stepped forward and said politely: "We will accompany you to find your aunt, and we will spare no effort, and I hope the girl can rest assured." ”

"That's right. Xiao Nai nodded, looking at the crowd: "How many years has this 'Ze Breathing Elixir' existed, and who was the first to develop it at the beginning, it is no longer possible to test, but my Mizusawa Fairy has no this 'Ze Breathing Agent', I'm afraid that like you humans, she will not be able to survive in the water for a long time, the specific principle, I don't know, I only know that if you drink this" After entering the water, the surface of the body will be wrapped with a layer of transparent air sacs, between the body and the air sacs, there are divided bubbles, and the bubbles are extremely compressed breath, and that breath is enough for people to breathe freely and move freely underwater for a long time. ”

"That's it. Xiao Nai spread his hands and looked at us who were stunned and speechless.

Sure enough, it's a baby!

I heard someone breathing heavily, and I couldn't hide my excitement.

"If this 'good recipe' is so miraculous as you said, and we all drank it and set off, maybe we have found the 'Tears of the Night' by now, and we have also saved your aunt!"

"The eldest aunt has her own considerations, and of course I have to respect her opinion. Xiao Nai is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Since it can form air sacs on the surface of the body, then my blood clan doesn't have to worry about ulcers and injuries after being soaked in the water—it couldn't be better!" Jicheng cried out excitedly.

"It should be. Xiao Nai said with certainty.

Forget to say that he held the cap of the bottle containing the "relieving agent" in his hand and looked at his brother. The elder brother nodded at him slightly.

"Thank you. Forgetting to thank Xiao Nai softly, he lifted the bottle cap to the level of the tip of his nose, his handsome eyelids opened slightly, and his eyes looked at me over his hand and the bottle cap, soft, firm, and with a faint smile.

Raise your hand and drink.

Looking at the calm and calm appearance of Forget Yan, somehow, my eyes flashed the face of Jicheng when he turned to the back hall to soak in the medicated bath to resist the invasion of sunlight, and I will never forget that face, such a timid, weak-hearted, and apprehensive face, as if I had never been loved by the childish look.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look towards Jicheng, and the pity that instantly swelled up in my heart made me look at him a little distracted.

Suddenly, my heart "groaned", and just like that, with full trust in the fairy Xiao Nai, I let the mysterious "Breathing Elixir" drink it?

What if I forget to drink it and have an accident?

What if Xiao Nai lied to us?

That old aunt looked innocent, didn't she live up to our trust?

"I'll drink first!" Kazama screamed, took the bottle cap in his hand with his hand, and drank it without waiting for everyone to react.

"Tsk, that little girl is reckless, but she is much more decisive than you. Zixia shook her body and sneered.

I was speechless for a moment, and I didn't know how to reply to him.

"However, she is simple-minded, loves and hates, unlike you, she thinks too much, alas......" Zixia continued without reluctance.

I reached out and made a gesture to pull off the petals from his body, causing him to leap away from my shoulder.

It's really noisy enough, I have lived for 7,000 years, and I have lived myself into a chatterbox!

However, Kazama must have the same thoughts as me, but the difference is that she quickly opened up herself, and I, still hesitating......

"Kazama, how are you?" Forget to say stepped forward, reaching out to help her.

Kazama handed the bottle cap to Xiao Nai, took half a step back, shook his head, and his face was a little nervous, but he still couldn't hide his curious and naughty smile: "It's okay, I really don't feel anything strange, I'm just waiting to go into the water - you know I have always loved water!"

"That's good. Forget to nod his head.

"Can I really come and go in the water like you, like a fish?" Kazama asked Nai with a glare.

"Yes. Xiao Nai's face was calm and nodded.

"Now?" Kazama's urgency came up.

Xiao Nai approached Kazama, reached out to test her shallowly, and touched her bare cheeks and palms, Kazama stood straight, his face excited and eager to try.

"Okay, that's it. Xiao Nai finally relented.

Kazama turned around and threw himself into the water, his posture was extremely graceful, like a white-scaled fish, submerged in the water, and disappeared in an instant.

Where the wind enters the water, the ripples swing in circles, swing open, swing......

I stared at the magical, flawless, layer-by-layer ring of water, subconsciously waiting for the ripples to calm down, and I felt that when the ripples disappeared and the water was completely and completely calm, it was time for the wind to come out and stir the water again.

But......

The ripples went round and round, as if tirelessly moving from the center to the periphery, from the periphery to the center, and the cycle went on and on, and there was never a time when it stood still.

I suddenly felt a silence in my ears. It's too quiet.

Sunlight converges. The wind has stopped. The water in front of him, the magic waves on the water surface are just rippling, but silent. The forest behind him was as quiet as death.

Everyone stared at the water, and not a single person made a sound.

My eyes didn't leave the water, but my feet were moving subconsciously, silently in the direction of the fairy Xiao Nai.

There are two people like me, one is my brother and the other is forgetful. In the end, the three of us surrounded Xiao Nai in the shape of "Pin".

Xiao Nai looked up and looked at the three of us calmly. Neither panicked nor explained, with short gray hair on the scalp, clear and colorless eyes, and a snow-white and calm face, it seemed to be a sculpture of a little boy, clean and vivid, lifelike, but lifeless.

"Where has Kazama gone?" I asked in a low voice, my heart sinking a little.
