Leaning on the branch of a giant tree, Zhou Ming looked up at the huge Taiyin Star entrenched in the sky.

The fluttering cantilevers, the moonlight scattered in the sky, and the appearance in the distant memory, have not changed at all.

There was nothing unusual about the calmness of perception, but Zhou Ming felt as if something was pressing heavily on his perception, making him almost unable to think.

In that almost stagnant thinking, looking at the Taiyin Star, Zhou Ming remembered a lake of lotus flowers in the depths of his memory, and the self who wailed in a black ash.

[Why? I can't cry now?]

Zhou Ming stretched out his left hand in a daze, and a small snowflake gradually appeared from nothing, and then fell leisurely, covering the palm, and after a while, Zhou Ming's palm was covered with a thin layer of snow.

"What are you doing here? ”

A figure suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Ming, but it blocked the moonlight and cast a dark shadow.

"What are you doing here? Zhou Ming took his gaze away from his hand and looked forward.

At this time, Feng, who was dressed in moonlight, did not look like he usually had the usual cute feeling, but was quiet, like a flower in full bloom bathed in moonlight.

"I'm here to accompany you, Mingyue. With that, Feng walked to Zhou Ming's side and sat down, leaning against the tree.

"Then you're mistaken. I'm just a fake here, and I'm still waiting with you for tomorrow's meeting to begin. Zhou Ming closed his right hand, and the snowflakes that were falling disappeared.

"Make no mistake. Because Mingyue is sad now, I want to accompany you. ”

Feng spoke crisply and neatly, so direct, but Zhou Ming didn't know what to say for a while. After being silent for a long time, Zhou Ming slowly spoke,

"Do I look sad now?"

Without looking at the peak leaning beside him, Zhou Ming looked at the Taiyin Star in the sky a little godlessly, and muttered,

"Well, Mingyue is very sad now. Feng nodded, then deepened his tone a bit.

"It's not like that. Zhou Ming shook his head, and then said,

"Do you know?Feng, when I was just born and hadn't met the Immortal King. The little valley where I live was destroyed by an attack from a beast that doesn't know where. At that time, I was very, very painful. for the little valley that gave birth to me and raised me is gone. The world that I grew up in is gone. ”

"In that ash I couldn't even think in pain, I just wept and wailed. ”

Feng didn't speak, and listened quietly.

"Li is a withdrawn guy, she has always survived alone, she has a cold temperament, and she can't communicate with her companions at all. Every time, I unilaterally looked for an opportunity, found a way to communicate with her, and then brought her to our companions. Zhou Ming continued to mumble to himself, but he said Li.

"Mingyue and Li have a good relationship. ”

Feng asked softly, his voice vague, as if he had come from another world.

"Yes, the more you communicate, the more you get acquainted, and you become good friends. ”

After the sentence fell, Zhou Ming didn't speak, and silence shrouded in this space.

"I'm looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to meeting you at this gathering. ”

"Hmm...."

"I'm supposed to be in pain, and after confirming Li's fall, I'm supposed to be very, very painful. ”

"Hmm...."

"But I can't cry, Feng, I can't cry. ”

"Not only can't I cry. Even if I feel miserable, I can still talk and laugh with everyone as usual. As long as you don't want to, all the discomfort can be easily pressed to the bottom of your heart. ”

"There is so little pain in my heart, Li. ”

Zhou Ming's eyes widened, and in the moonlight, Feng clearly saw that there were tears flashing in Zhou Ming's eyes.

"You see, even if I've been brewing for so long, the tears in my eyes can't fall. ”

Zhou Ming closed his eyes, and the tears that were still accumulating in his eyes finally slipped from the corners of his eyes, and then solidified and fell.

"I hate myself, I'm still so sober!"

This night, Feng didn't go anywhere, but stayed by Zhou Ming's side.

On the other side, Zhou Ming, who was waiting with his companions for the start of tomorrow's party, was stopped by Canghai, and then said that he wanted to walk together, and Zhou Ming agreed.

Walking in the green bamboo forest, Canghai took out a desolate creature that was frozen and said,

"Mingyue, do you know what is the biggest difference between us and those desolate creatures apart from some external factors?"

"What is this doing all of a sudden? Is it lifespan? ”

Zhou Ming was a little strange, he looked at the desolate creature that was frozen in a sphere in his hand, and that creature had a small humanoid posture, and there was not a single strand on his body.

Although his face is a little immature, his chest is raised high, showing a feminine posture.

"Of course not. Canghai saw that Zhou Ming seemed interested, so he casually threw the ball in his hand to Zhou Ming. And then said,

"The biggest difference between us and the creatures of the wilderness is the endurance of the will. ”

"The endurance of will?" Zhou Ming looked at the sphere in his hand, and when his perception was concentrated on the body of the desolate creature, the memory of the desolate creature was like a book, open to him.

"That's right, unlike those desolate creatures who can't even withstand the passage of time for a long time. Our Panguzi's will endurance will never collapse because of anything. ”

Canghai looked at Zhou Ming, who seemed to be immersed in the memory of that desolate creature, and continued,

"We're going to be sad, we're going to be miserable, we're going crazy..... But only I don't lose my mind. ”

"So, don't embarrass yourself, Mingyue. The degree of pain is not a depth of attention, nor is it a reason to forgive oneself. ”

"Think about it, what do you want to do now, what should you do?"

Canghai left, and Zhou Ming, who was thinking alone in the back, raised his hand when the Taiyin Star was about to fall, and said loudly to the depths of the bamboo forest,

"Kong Qing, I want this desolate creature. ”

"That's for you. ”
