Yu breathed a sigh of relief and finally noticed something strange here.
…Um? Stone bed? Where are you...
...I was a little concerned just now. It seemed like there was a soft body pressing on me. At first I thought it was Abu. Speaking of how a newborn baby bird could be so heavy, this kind of pressure...should be about 50 kilograms...
There were bursts of soreness throughout his body, and the familiar feeling of fatigue filled every muscle. Yu reluctantly raised his arms and looked down.
The surrounding red mist was thick, and it was difficult to see clearly at such a close distance. Yu raised his arm and reached into the red mist. He soon touched a soft hand, and while rubbing it from left to right, there were actually two small branches arranged in rows. On the supple sides.
Just when he was doubting, his heart suddenly contracted, and then expanded violently, as if it was triggered by something!
"Plop! Plop!"
In the fierce beating one after another, the blood in the whole body is rushing like boiling!
His heart seemed to be jumping for joy, as if he had found a home!
He only felt that his body was light and light, and the boiling blood was extremely hot, burning his limbs and bones!
Whatever fatigue or pain he felt, they disappeared in an instant. An unprecedented feeling made him unable to control himself!
However, the red mist became thicker and thicker, as if it had received help. Yu's palm was still touching the two branches. He could clearly feel that something was growing inside the body that was pressing him. sound!
The sound seemed to only happen for a moment, and then the body suddenly burst out with a rapid movement that was indistinguishable from the sound of his own heartbeat!
The owner of the body must have also woken up. His palms left the branches and softness, and were held by a pair of slender and gentle hands. A girl's voice trembled slightly, as if she was suppressing extremely strong excitement!
"...Yu?"
…? ! ! !
…this voice!
...a sound I only heard once but will never forget! ! !
This soft call floated into my ears, but it exploded like a thunderbolt in Yu's mind!
...could it be...
The girl on top of him seemed to have noticed something at this moment, and came forward eagerly. The red mist rippled, revealing the two horns on the top of her head, and her frightened but surprised head!
...Eileen?
…
...Yes, you...are...Aileen!
No one knew that at the moment when the name was swirling into his throat and about to come out, Yu suddenly froze!
As if in an instant, he was squeezed into an extremely small starting point, trapped in endless darkness!
The sudden sea of darkness grasped his heart tightly, and the violent beating suddenly stopped, as if death was coming!
………
When he woke up again, the familiar internal energy poured into his body. The young master knelt down next to him, holding his hand tightly with a worried look on his face.
The red mist near the stone bed dissipated somewhat, but it was still thick behind Grandmaster Qian Yu.
He suddenly realized that he was naked!
Embarrassed, he hurriedly sat up and grabbed a piece of clothing to cover his waist.
"Yu, are you okay?"
"Me? I'm fine... Grandmaster Qianyu, where are we? Why am I like this..."
"...what happened before...you...do you still remember it? You have been unconscious since you lost that Eragon in seconds. I was really worried, so I brought you here. Grandpa said that this geothermal hot spring is good for Your body is of great benefit, and my mother-in-law also agrees! It’s a pity that the hot spring is no longer available, and the healing secrets passed down to me by my grandfather have not been completed. Fortunately, you woke up, otherwise I don’t know what to do... "
…Oh, I see…
The memory seemed to suddenly return to Yu's heart. He hurriedly groped among the clothes and finally found Abu, who was curled up in a ball, and carefully held it in his hands.
He lowered his head and said apologetically:
"Master Qianyu, I'm so sorry! Your hot spring should have been destroyed by that seven-scented snake orchid. I..."
Qian Yu leaned forward, put his finger on Yu's lips, shook his head and said:
"It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter what the hot springs are, as long as you are safe! After all, you are my fiancé..."
"But... Grandmaster Qianyu... my mother-in-law has never said anything about my fiancé... I really don't know... and... I already have someone I like..."
"...Is it that Aileen?"
…How could Grandmaster Qian Yu know Ai Lin’s name? Oh, right! I said it in that darkroom...
"Yes, that's this girl! Although I only know her name and my mother-in-law never told me her identity and appearance, she is the one who paid a great price and saved me from the edge of death! From then on I vowed to find her, and if I could, I would be her knight to protect her for the rest of my life!"
"...Yu, don't you remember everything that happened just now?"
"Eh? Oh, you're talking about this little guy. I just had a dream. In the dream, I saw the snake orchid sacrificing itself to wake it up. Maybe it's because of the snake orchid that I can communicate with it in my dream. Well, if I hadn't seen it, I would have thought it was a dream..."
"That's it..."
Qianyu fell silent, watching the embarrassed young man put on his clothes quickly, looking at him with a puzzled face, looking around for the hair tie that seemed to have never left his body...
In the red mist behind her, the figure that had been watching the young man for a long time with the young master, that figure that was trembling but not moving forward, quietly changed just now. In the hand of the young master who quietly reached behind her, he quietly shrink into a ball...
The delighted young man took the hair tie from Qian Yu's hand, tied his long hair skillfully, and got off the stone bed.
The red mist was now thinner, and the door was not far away. He bowed apologetically to Qian Yu, who was looking at him quietly, with a slight blush on his face. He thanked and said goodbye again seriously, and then left here...
………
The thick red mist was like an unknown phantom, coming and going suddenly. At this time, the basement became clearer and clearer, revealing the ravine-like ground and the deeply sunken bottom of the pool.
The hot springs here have completely dried up. Leading the earth veins from the deep underground is a rare thing. Elder He spent a long time looking for it and spent a lot of effort to arrange it. In a short time, this room The basement should be abandoned.
And it shouldn't take too long for the remaining traces of Snake Orchid to begin to disappear. Except for a few people, this human realm will gradually forget about her.
Qian Yu lay quietly where the young man had been, with her braids randomly coiled around her neck, and she bit her tightly...
...Is this the second stage of amnesia - "dream reality"...
…It’s so pitiful…
…Following the phantom created by broken memories, and the love that arises from it, is the pillar of your soul that has sustained you until now...
...but that is all illusion after all!
...You who are lost in it, can you survive that day? !
...Even if I can survive that day, will I be able to be happy in the future...
…No!
...Before that day comes, I must get rid of such phantoms!
...The boy who has my engagement token, the boy I never thought I would fall in love with at first sight, maybe fate is also sympathizing with you, and this is how we meet, isn't it?
...In this case, it is my responsibility, He Qianyu, to make you happy!
...Yu, I will never give up!
………
It was late at night, and there was silence under Fengming Mountain.
The moonlight is also very dim, and it seems that I can't bear to open the curtains and see some things again.
In the small courtyard next to the nursery, after the young man left, Grandpa He kept waiting on the recliner until his mother-in-law suddenly appeared.
Grandpa He took a look at the house. His precious granddaughter was still in the basement and had not come out.
Mother-in-law didn't speak, just stood. Grandpa He sighed and said:
"...Sister, it's really hard for you to hold back and not take action today!"
The mother-in-law's face was neither happy nor angry, and she replied:
"If the young eagle cannot jump out of the nest, it will never learn to fly! I understand this truth..."
"That's absolutely true! Sister, to put it bluntly, you have protected Yu'er behind you in the past two years, trying to save him with your own strength. Although this is humane behavior, it also kills Yu'er's life. All possibilities, in my opinion, really put the cart before the horse!”
The mother-in-law nodded, looking dazed.
Grandpa He continued:
"Yu'er is indeed an enemy from all sides in the human world, and his current amnesia symptoms are indeed worrying! But there are not many days left! If we don't take a few gambles, Yu'er's hope will still be slim!
"As the saying goes, seek survival in death, neither destruction nor establishment! If you don't walk a few more times between life and death, who can gain something?!
"Yu'er is making rapid progress now, and there is something magical in her body. Although what happened today was extremely dangerous, she survived it in the end! This makes me believe in this idea even more!
"Sister, there is no perfect path! In the next few dozen days, you must continue to believe that Yu'er is the one!"
The mother-in-law said quietly:
"...I understand all this...As of now...I will try my best...
"But Yu'er is fine this time, what about next time?
"...I really can't swallow this breath...
"Old He'er, come with me!"
