The moonlight fell on every detail of the earth, except for the darkness in the cave.
Yao Yan'er called Peng You very gently: "Brother Peng, it's me!"
Peng You turned around and stood still, unable to believe it, and said, "Yan'er? Why are you here?"
Yao Yan'er said shyly: "Brother Peng, I didn't expect it to be you."
Peng You's heart was racing. He looked at Yao Yan'er's charming figure, his blood was boiling, but he was dumbfounded. He said to himself: "I must still be dreaming, it can't be such a coincidence."
Yao Yan'er said tenderly: "Brother Peng, you are not dreaming. You can't smell my fragrance when you are dreaming. Come here and come to me. I miss you so much."
Peng You was fascinated. He had been thinking about it day and night for five years. Suddenly he woke up from his dream and it came true. He was so excited that he couldn't help but take a step forward.
Yao Yan'er heard Peng You's footsteps and smiled softly: "Brother Peng, although it's freezing outside, it's so warm in this cave."
Peng You didn't know what Yao Yan'er meant. He heard a snap of fingers from the darkness, and he seemed to have stepped on empty steps, falling straight into the endless dark abyss.
ah!
Peng You fell straight down, endlessly!
He shouted: "Yan'er, are you okay? What's going on?"
Yao Yan'er's faint voice came from all directions: "Don't call me Yan'er! I don't want to know you!"
Peng You was dancing and still falling, and he asked: "Yan'er, what's wrong? You're not hurt, are you? Is this a trap set by the fairy lady?"
Yao Yan'er sneered: "Of course it's all a trap! Let me tell you why Shao Linglong ignored me for several hours five years ago. It turned out that he wanted me to meet you!"
Peng You was confused and said: "Yan'er, where are you? What are you talking about?"
Peng You fell a little slower and stood up. A woman with her back exposed appeared in front of him.
Yao Yan'er whispered: "I'm here." But then she said sharply: "But if I looked like this, would you still fall in love with me at first sight?"
The woman in front of Peng You suddenly turned around, but she had an old and ugly face!
Peng You said in panic: "Yan'er, what's wrong with you?" As he spoke, he was about to step forward, and the woman instantly disappeared like a cloud of smoke.
Yao Yan'er raised her voice and said, "She calculates every step. I can no longer trust her."
Peng You said: "Yan'er, what I said is true. I don't know why she brought me here."
Yao Yan'er suddenly sobbed: "You are just like her, playing with my feelings. I can't trust you anymore!"
Peng You felt a tear drop on the back of his hand, followed by a heavy downpour, followed by stormy waves, and he felt as if he was falling into a turbulent sea.
Peng You struggled in the tidal sea and swam hard, but he could not withstand the powerful waves. He gradually became exhausted and suffocated.
Suddenly, a small boat fell from the sky, and Peng You swam on it as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
Yao Yan'er's voice came out in the storm, and she said: "It's ridiculous, I'm very angry, but I still want to save you. Maybe her belief is too deep, or you are indeed very good."
She sighed: "Alas, you have been dazzled by me in a prison of thought. You will drift on this sea until your consciousness dies. Every second that passes in reality at this moment, a year will pass in your brain."
Peng You was riding the waves in the boat and shouted: "Yan'er, where are you and what have you done?"
Peng You did not receive any reply from Yao Yaner.
In the cave.
Yao Yan'er turned around and looked at Peng You, who was standing there with wandering eyes. She looked him up and down and thought to herself: You still look like that.
Her eyes glanced at the sachet on Peng You's waist, her heart skipped a beat, and tears fell from her eyes. Am I soft-hearted? Why did I just tell him those words?
Yao Yaner's tears rolled down uncontrollably, and she thought in her heart: No, I want to be free! I don't want to be bound by these things!
She thought, and snapped her fingers with her backhand. Yao Yan'er made herself faint. Before falling down, she thought: In just a few minutes, everything will be freed.
If life is like a dream, when can people wake up?
After a long time, Yao Yaner woke up faintly, as if in a dream, and saw Peng You looking at her gently.
Yao Yaner said with tears: "Brother Peng, I dreamed of you again. I didn't mean to hurt you, but I didn't want us to be controlled by others."
Peng You also cried and said, "Yan'er, I won't blame you for anything you do."
Yao Yan'er was drowsy and sighed softly.
She was suddenly shocked, why can I smell the fragrance? There is no sense of smell in dreams.
A woman's laughter came, and she said: "Xiaoyan, it's time to wake up, get up quickly, the moon has gone back to sleep." The person who spoke was none other than Shao Linglong.
The sun shines into the cave and everything remains as before.
Yao Yaner hurriedly sat up, looked at Peng You, and said in surprise: "Brother Peng, are you okay?"
She looked at Shao Linglong warily and said, "Did you save him?"
Shao Linglong smiled and said: "You two are my treasures, neither of you can make a mistake."
Yao Yan'er said coldly: "So you have always been by our side."
Shao Linglong said: "What if, you little girl has known your brother Peng for a long time, but you even hid it from your teacher."
Yao Yan'er asked in confusion: "What do you mean? I met him a few years ago. Wasn't it your intention?"
Shao Linglong smiled and said, "I'm not a god. I can calculate everything."
She continued: "I went to that village to look for a young man wearing a jade pendant. I didn't find him, but you met me. You didn't tell me about that experience, and you hid it, which made me have trouble looking for someone all these years. I’m so exhausted looking for it.”
Yao Yan'er groaned and said, "Then you brought him here last night not to activate the faith you planted in me."
Shao Linglong said: "With your level of psychological perception, is this self-awareness gone? That belief has long since disappeared in your mind."
Yao Yan'er thought to herself, thinking yes. She quickly asked: "When? When did you eliminate that belief?"
Shao Linglong replied: "I didn't eliminate it, but when I told you what that belief was, that belief was already invalid."
Yao Yan'er sighed: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Shao Linglong smiled and said, "You told me earlier? That wouldn't be fun. All your feelings for him now are of your own free will, but no one is forcing you."
Yao Yan'er pouted and said, "Teacher!"
The sun is shining brightly and the air is sweet and cold.
Peng You stood beside the two of them, listening to what they said to each other, but he couldn't get a word in, so he waited for her to rest.
Peng You looked at Yao Yan'er and asked, "Yan'er, are you okay?"
Yao Yan'er looked at Peng You with an apologetic face and said, "Brother Peng, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." The two of them spoke slightly.
Peng You asked hurriedly: "What's the misunderstanding?"
He added: "I fell asleep last night for some reason, and I dreamed that I was drifting on the sea, and I found you a thousand years later. Alas, you are already old, and I only saw you for the last time."
