But this time, Si Ye was no longer by Nan Muran's side to comfort her softly, but fortunately, he was still there when she looked back.
The moment Jiawu and his companions went down the mountain, the originally clear mountain path began to be covered by wildly growing mutant plants. Then every mutant plant halfway up the mountain began to grow at a strange speed, turning the entire halfway up the mountain into an impenetrable barrier guarded by mutant plants.
"What's going on?" Bai Mei looked worried. She began to worry that Nan Muran would completely isolate herself because of Si Ye's matter.
After Jiawu tried to take a step forward, he found that all the mutant plants automatically made way for him. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go and let Ranran be alone for a while."
Guo Fei felt relieved after seeing the attitude of the mutant plants in the middle of the mountain towards them. Although he was still worried about Nan Muran, he still chose to respect her decision.
But none of them expected that after this separation, every meeting would be so difficult. The time between them would even be so long that Nan Muran, who was still an emperor in the middle of the mountain, became a legend in this land.
Time began to pass day by day. After the extreme heat, there were long periods of polar night and polar day... until finally everything in the world returned to the four seasons, and human life in major bases gradually returned to normal.
The only thing they have to face is the occasional zombie horde. Of course, with the current strength of human beings, it is not difficult to deal with the zombie horde.
What's more, there are many little zombie kings in the Xishi Security Base.
When external conflicts calmed down and the battle between man and nature gradually faded away, human society returned to its pre-apocalyptic order.
But Nan Muran never cared about all this, because she was used to accompanying the sleeping Si Ye. She would take him to every corner of the mountain, and would also take Qingfeng and Xiao Huihui with her, letting them drive the RV to travel all over the world.
You will stop at the beach to admire the afterglow of the sunset and watch the pink mutant dolphins leap out of the water. You will be shocked by the quicksand under your feet in the dark blue twilight and wait for the rosy morning light. You will feel the feast of mutant plants in the rainforest and experience a thrilling avalanche at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.
All the scenery is deposited in Nan Muran's eyes, and will also be depicted by her brush and mouth to Si Ye beside her.
When they feel tired, they will return to the middle of the mountain.
When they were halfway up the mountain, Nan Muran would habitually put away all her supernatural powers and exercise in the fighting arena with Xuan Yue, Tank, Da Fu and others.
Qingfeng would still play Siye's songs for her when she was in a bad mood, over and over again, and she never got tired of listening to them. Xiao Huihui, who was never good at cooking, also learned to make delicious meals for her.
Xiao Liu, Shu Ren, Xiao Bai, and Chi Ye finally stopped at the peak of level nine and had no chance to advance further, so they just gave up and chatted with Nan Muran. Because of the existence of these little guys, Nan Muran never felt bored.
Xuan Yue, Tank, Da Fu, and Tian Lang not only patrol their territory in the mountains, but also go down to the base to play. After coming back, they will tell her many stories about what happened down the mountain.
Even Xiao Liu, Shu Ren, Xiao Bai and Chi Ye would go down the mountain to play from time to time.
In the eyes of outsiders, Nan Muran, an emperor-level existence, is like a trapped god. As time passes and disputes continue outside, he has never appeared in any camp or lent a helping hand to any force.
Even the other members of the Star Thorn Squad seldom participated in the external wars of the West City Base. For this reason, the panic in the hearts of the rulers of the major security bases at the foot of the mountain completely calmed down as time went by.
Until one morning, Nan Muran got up in the morning light and washed Si Ye out of habit.
Xuan Yue knocked on the door and walked into the bedroom: "Ran Ran, Chief He passed away."
Hearing Xuan Yue's words, Nan Muran paused and sighed. She was not surprised by this news. The last time she left Banshan, she left a lot of mutant fruits for Chief He, but in the end, she failed to change his fate.
I looked back at the numbers on the clock behind me. So has that much time passed?
It's been ten years? Ten years is just a breath for an emperor who doesn't know where the end of life is. But it's enough for the familiar faces to gradually fade away.
"When will we say goodbye?" Nan Muran continued to wipe Si Ye's fingertips, her voice low and hoarse.
She understood that this was just the beginning for her. Perhaps more people would die in front of her in the future, but her life would remain the same as it is now, without any change.
Until one becomes extremely familiar with everything in this world and sees through all the laws of nature, all that remains is infinite loneliness and lingering sorrow.
Xuan Yue curled up on a recliner at the side: "Three days later, do you want to go? The leaders of the major official bases will show up."
"It's okay." Nan Muran said lightly.
The Xishi Security Base fell into sorrow due to the death of Chief He, and the originally sunny sky seemed to be affected and turned gloomy.
At this moment, the legendary Karmann King appeared at the base.
"Is it Ranran?" Jiawu was a little uncertain, because Nan Muran had never appeared at the West City Security Base on her own initiative in the past ten years. It was only after they knew she was back that they went up the mountain to see her.
Guo Fei nodded, his tone somewhat delighted: "It's her."
Nan Muran got out of the car and approached the military office building. Ten years had not left any traces on her, she was still the incredibly beautiful Miss Nan in everyone's memory.
"Ranran." Chen Jianguo looked at Nan Muran, who was gradually approaching in a khaki windbreaker, with some surprise.
All the leaders of the surrounding bases who came to pay tribute were stunned by Chen Jianguo's words. Ten years of fading from the spotlight made them forget about this royal existence belonging to the land of China, and they forgot that she once turned 80,000 mutant beasts and zombies into rivers with just one look.
But the moment she appeared, the fear in everyone's heart once again burst out uncontrollably, taking control of their bodies and forcing them to face her existence.
He Yifeng watched Nan Muran approach step by step, his tone as gentle as ever: "Are you here?"
Nan Muran nodded, then took the incense he handed over, bowed first, and then looked at the photo of Chief He in front of her: "I'm here to see you."
The leaders of the major bases behind her looked at Nan Muran's back without even breathing, and just watched her every move quietly.
Nan Muran ignored everyone's actions. After the memorial service, she turned around and walked out of the military office building and got into the car.
The moment she got on the car, heavy rain poured down, and the sky was filled with lightning and thunder. Nan Muran looked at the torn sky quietly, and her smile gradually became bitter: "Si Ye, I suddenly feel a little sad."
"I know." A deep and hoarse voice sounded in the void.
