One night passed in Walden Pond, but more than ten years passed in the outside world.
In Valentin's opinion, Chen Le's lifespan should be the same as that of ordinary humans, with one hundred years being the limit. Even if you can break through this hurdle, it won't last long.
This was also the reason why he said he would go back in a few days.
In five days at most, Valentine will leave this world and return to reality.
result……
Chen Le was really a good girl blessed by God. She had no illness or disaster in her life, and she lived smoothly to over 190 years old. After getting married, Valentin never used his magical power again except for the magic elixir of eternal youth. This lifespan was beyond his expectation.
But after the brief surprise, what filled my heart was still the peace and warmth of getting along with my lover.
Nearly two hundred years of emotional accumulation have made Valentine increasingly reluctant to let go of the little fox, and he has become increasingly clear about what choices he should make.
He accompanied Chen Le throughout his long life and held her hand before he died.
The warmth slowly flows away from the hands, dissipating into the world with the pure and flawless soul.
Valentine kept his promise.
Yifeng only loves Chen Le and will accompany her until the end of her life.
But for the living, death is always the hardest thing to accept. The emotions that had been accumulated in his heart for so long turned into pain and tears at this moment, and were poured out by Valentine, as if they were going to swallow him whole.
He has no worries in Asia, and this drama will come to an end.
But Valentine was still standing on the stage, acting like a phoenix, unwilling to wake up.
Even though he has spent thousands of years, seen the famous mountains and rivers, and tasted the ups and downs brought by the seven emotions and six desires, but after all, it was just acting on the occasion, living with a recreational mentality driven by desire.
Chen Le was the first girl he fell in love with in the Asian continent, and he fell deeper and deeper into it, and was finally buried completely, willingly.
Even gods are vulnerable to feelings.
To escape from this state of mind, Valentine's opponent is himself. If he just goes back like this, he will live in Chen Le's shadow for the rest of his life.
If he was really Yifeng, this wouldn't be a problem at all.
Unfortunately……
He needed time to slow down and completely throw away Yifeng's shackles.
In this way, after taking care of his beloved's funeral, Valentin still lived in Tushan, in the Chen family's old house, the house that belonged to him and Chen Le.
There are only two copies of the magic medicine for eternal youth in the world, and his children are still normal. Now Valentin is two hundred years old in the eyes of the Tushan people. His sons, daughters, and grandchildren are no longer alive. The Chen family who are still alive are full of awe for this old ancestor and rarely disturb him. Lundin also had a quiet later life.
There is a peach tree in the center of the yard of the old house. It was planted by Valentine and Chen Le together a hundred years ago. It has become luxuriant with the baptism of time.
Every spring, this peach tree blooms with gorgeous pink flowers, covering most of the yard. Valentine was lying under the tree, looking at the pink in his eyes, and his mind was filled with memories of him and Chen Le.
Chen Le once liked this peach tree very much. He liked the peach blossoms blooming like clouds and would be sad when the pink petals fell. Valentine once wanted to use divine magic to make it bloom all year round, but was blocked.
She said that the beauty in this world is called beauty precisely because it blooms and decays.
If it keeps blooming, one day it will be bored and it will no longer be beautiful.
At that time, Chen Le's tone was a little lonely. Valentin guessed something and did not respond. He just put down his hand ready to cast a spell.
From that time on roughly, he and Chen Le lived in the old house and rarely went out. The children came to visit them less and less often.
But Valentin thought it was nothing. It's good not to come, and you can still have some peace and quiet.
When the last leaf falls from the peach tree, it means winter is coming.
Chen Le also likes winter because it snows. She had said a long time ago that the foxes in Tushan have a special way of entertainment, which is to transform into animal shapes after snow and run around in the snow, like real foxes.
In the winter of the year they got married, Valentine saw Chen Le in animal form. It's very small, but its tail is still very big and fluffy, and its hair is so white that you can't even see it lying down in the snow.
She was still very young at that time, and still had the silly and adorable girlhood in her. Chen Le, who had transformed into an animal form, jumped his calves and plunged his head into the snow with a sudden movement, leaving only his two hind legs jumping around outside. His tail was swung like a fan, which made Valentine smile bitterly.
later……
There is no later.
Chen Le has become much more stable and has never done such entertainment activities again. Now that she has a child, she is already a mature mother and has long since said goodbye to her willfulness in her youth.
But this year is different from usual. The peach blossoms are still in full bloom when winter comes. The white snow is dotted on the pink flowers, making them look more beautiful and cool.
Valentine used magic to maintain the vitality of the peach tree, allowing it to bloom forever regardless of the rules of nature.
He saw Chen Le's shadow in the peach blossoms, and the memories and emotions in his heart were entangled in the crown of the tree, blooming slowly.
It was as if the pure white person was still standing beside him.
The man stood on the snow, looking at the red clouds above his head. There was still a slight amount of snow falling slowly in the air, landing on his shoulders and in his heart.
Time passes year by year, and the youngest child of the Chen family has grown up, and it is time to go out for experience. According to Tushan tradition, young people must visit their elders before going out for training, and then they can leave and embark on a new journey.
But when they opened the door of the Chen family's old house, what they saw was not the peach tree that bloomed all year round, and there was no ancestor standing under the tree for a long time.
It took Valentine more than ten years to wash away his obsession with Chen Le, and the peach tree was finally freed and returned to normal.
It will bloom as usual next spring.
But no one will stop and stand under the tree anymore.
———————Let bygones be bygones————————
Valentine's disappearance caused a storm in Tushan.
To others, Tushan had lost a legendary adventurer, and the next demon wave might be a bit dangerous; but to the Chen family, his disappearance was a relief.
A human being who has lived for two hundred years without any change in appearance or constitution feels weird no matter how much he thinks about it. Even if they are his descendants, the Chen family will still feel afraid when facing this unknown and powerful existence.
Valentine saw this mentality clearly, so he didn't notify anyone before leaving, but just left a letter.
The letter explained his identity and made a promise to ensure Tushan's eternal peace.
This is not a big statement.
When Valentin returns to the world of Terra, the subcontinent will instantly fall apart, and everything living here will disappear.
There are no monsters, and naturally there is no danger.
It's just a dream after all.
When you wake up, the dream ends.
Valentine sat under the big tree at the entrance of Walden Pond and took a deep breath from the cigarette in his hand.
After living for so many years, I naturally have a lot of bad habits, and smoking is one of them. Although tobacco is harmful to the body, he is the God of Creation, so this damage is nothing at all.
But I have to get rid of my smoking habit before I go back, otherwise I will be miserable for the rest of my life.
After all, he is not a god in the world of Terra.
The sparks were as bright as the sun, and a cigarette was burned out in the blink of an eye. Valentine crushed the cigarette holder into dust with his fingers and sprinkled it on the ground at his feet.
call--
White smoke is ejected from the nasal cavity after a breathing cycle, and is as thick as milk. The pungency of tobacco stimulated Valentine's brain and made him sober.
It's time to go back.
He coughed, pinched off his mental dependence on tobacco, stood up and looked at the sky.
Time has returned to normal and it is now morning. The forest wakes up with the first rays of sunlight, and the world is once again full of life.
A long time ago, after Chen Le passed away, Valentin felt that someone was watching him, but he didn't know where.
When his attention shifted to other things, the feeling of being stared at disappeared, and he didn't care too much, letting this gaze stare at him for more than ten years.
Now, as Valentine stood at the entrance to Walden Pond, that line of sight disappeared.
No need to think about it, Jiao Zhengyu must have been peeping.
He held onto the tree trunk, knocked his numb feet, and opened the entrance.
A clear lake appears in front of you.
There are also those familiar figures.
Valentine smiled and walked towards them.
