wake
The direct light that penetrated only through a thin layer of eyelids was extremely dazzling, making Jing Yao's already dull and painful head feel even more dizzy.
"hiss……"
My whole body aches, as if someone had broken my bones one by one with an iron rod and then put them back together again, and maybe even in the wrong place.
The whole person felt uncomfortable, like a misaligned mortise and tenon, and was extremely uncomfortable.
Jing Yao struggled to her feet, banging her joints to make them feel more comfortable. She looked around. This seemed to be a valley at the lowest point of the hillside. The carriage had fallen apart and shattered in the roll. She must have been thrown out.
The shallows of the valley were full of pebbles of all sizes. No wonder she felt as if her whole body was broken into pieces. She almost didn't enjoy such a full-body massage from the stones.
After taking a few breaths, Jing Yao struggled to the river and washed her face with cold water. It was early summer, but the river water was still icy cold. However, this was exactly what Jing Yao wanted, as she just wanted to wake up.
The cold river water washed away the pain caused by the glaring sunlight and gradually brought Jing Yao back to his senses.
They had just rushed down from the cliff. The slope wasn't extremely steep, but it was ridiculously long. The carriage rolled over and shattered under the weight. At that time, she was still holding Si Pei's hand tightly...
By the way, where are Si Pei and the others?
And Zhiyue, Zuo Yuanwu and Si Cheng... they should still be alive, right?
Jing Yao didn't dare to think too much and knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately began to search for them around.
The place where the carriage disintegrated was a long distance away from where she woke up. It seemed that they should have rolled out like her, but in different locations.
Jing Yao comforted herself that they must be fine, and sure enough, she soon found Zhiyue not far from her.
"Zhiyue!"
Worried that she was injured, Jing Yao quickly stepped forward and picked up the girl, calling her softly, "Zhiyue? Can you hear me?"
"Miss..." There was a roar in Zhiyue's ears. Because she was small, she flew directly out of the side window of the carriage. Because of her light weight, she rolled for a long time before finally stopping.
"It felt as if a carriage had run over me."
Zhiyue slowly regained consciousness. Jing Yao gave her two sips of water and asked her to take a break. "You rest. I'll go find the rest of the people."
"Miss, are you not hurt?"
Jing Yao shook his head: "Maybe it's because the cushion I was holding onto protected me, so I didn't feel that much pain."
"That's good."
Zhiyue lay back quietly, not because of anything else, but because she was in so much pain that she had no strength left.
She was too thin, and any injury would be enough to kill her.
Jing Yao was also very anxious. If Zhiyue was like this, would Si Pei, who had lost consciousness, just...
She didn't dare to think anymore and could only quicken her pace to continue looking for people on the other side.
There is a large sea of blue flowers on the left side of the valley. At first glance, Jing Yao thought it was a bluebell flower, but when he walked closer, he realized that it was a star flower.
The star flowers here grow extremely lushly. Unlike the common varieties, the vines here are as high as Jing Yao's waist. At a glance, they are boundless, like an unfolding blue scroll.
Jing Yao was mesmerized by the sight and was actually attracted to walk towards the heart of the sea of flowers.
She seemed to hear a familiar voice calling her.
Before she could recall the source of the sound, her eyes were suddenly attracted by a large patch of fallen star flowers in front of her.
This situation should be...
Jing Yao pushed aside the branches little by little, and the young man's figure became clearer and clearer in front of him.
"Li... Hong..."
Jing Yao subconsciously called out his name, and Si Pei fell pale in the sea of flowers. The dark blue star flowers swayed. They were obviously pure and beautiful flowers, but at this moment they had an inexplicable seductive aura.
Jing Yao hurriedly tried to get closer, but when he was only one step away, he suddenly fell beside Si Pei.
"Si Pei!"
Although she didn't know why she fell, she subconsciously checked Si Pei's pulse on the side of his neck. She finally breathed a sigh of relief after finding that everything was normal and there was nothing serious.
That’s great, that’s great.
Si Pei is not dead.
Jing Yao almost cried with joy as he rested his forehead against Si Pei's. Even though the young man's body was cold due to a long coma, Jing Yao still gave him the warmth in his arms without hesitation.
She suddenly realized that her eyelids were getting heavier, but it was too late.
Perhaps the fragrance of the flowers around was too hypnotic, Jing Yao comforted himself in this way.
Take some sleep, just take some more sleep.
Then, she fell into a familiar dream with layers upon layers of dreams.
"That's strange, didn't I fall asleep just now?"
Jing Yao stood in a mysterious place surrounded by snow, looking at his body in confusion.
Was I dreaming again? Same as last time?
"Hello! Is anyone there?"
If this is the same dream as last time, then that mysterious fairy should be there too.
"Come out! I know you're here!!"
It’s a pity that this time, no matter how Jing Yao shouted, he didn’t see any trace of the fairy.
Didn't she come this time?
Jing Yao was very depressed. The fairy's absence meant that no one would come to help her. She could either continue to stand there and wait or grope around to see if there was any other way out.
After much deliberation, Jing Yao chose the latter.
She had sat and waited for death too many times in the past, and at least in her dreams she didn't want to go down the same old path again.
The snow in this dream was actually very different from the last time. At least there was no freezing blizzard. Instead, it was as gentle as a spring day, and the snow around me had not melted yet.
Everything around him was white, and Jing Yao soon felt a stinging pain in his eyes.
It seems to be the same disease again, she has snow blindness.
Thinking that there would be no danger in the dream world, Jing Yao chose to close his eyes.
The moment he closed his eyes, the pale world suddenly turned pitch black, but black and white were the same - Jing Yao could not see their edge.
Since there are no defined boundaries, it means that you can go anywhere and any direction is right.
Jing Yao followed the guidance in his heart and walked forward step by step.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the thick snow beneath her feet became soft. Jing Yao didn't dare to linger any longer and immediately quickened her pace. Finally, she touched something that looked like a barrier.
Jing Yao was overjoyed and opened his eyes in surprise, but suddenly found that there was nothing in front of him.
It seemed to be a wall of air that she could not see.
Jing Yao was furious and kicked hard. He had only wanted to vent his anger, but he had unexpectedly hit the target and the entire snowy world began to shake violently.
The violent vibration brought by his feet almost made Jing Yao lose the ability to stand. Fortunately, the snow calmed down after a while and returned to peace...?
“Ahhhh!”
Jing Yao's feet suddenly felt empty, and he once again experienced the feeling of flying and floating in the air. He felt like a free swallow, or like helpless catkins floating in the wind, sometimes at ease and sometimes panicked in the air.
I don’t know how long Jing Yao was still floating in the air. She went from throwing a tantrum and flailing her arms and legs at the beginning to being quiet and gentle. She even changed into a comfortable position and let herself fall.
"You're here."
The familiar female voice finally appeared in her ears. Jing Yao glanced sideways and found that the woman had no substance under her body, but was floating in the air beside her in a side-lying position, looking at her with a smile.
"It's you."
Jing Yao glanced over calmly, her tone showing no surprise. She had been here for so long just to wait for the fairy in her dream to appear.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time."
The fairy smiled happily, although Jing Yao couldn't understand what was worthy of her looking so happy.
"How did you end up like this?"
Jing Yao changed his posture. After discovering that he could also lie freely in the void like a fairy, he lay flat on his back. He looked at the endless sky above his head and sighed:
"It's a long story. We were secretly murdered by a villain, and now that villain is riding on our heads and showing off his power."
Hateful Si Jue!
Jing Yao gnashed his teeth in anger: "Why does it seem like even the heavens are helping Si Jue? Aren't you a fairy? Please ask the heavens why Si Jue has such good luck!"
He was assassinated twice but still survived. Even though Si Pei treated the wound immediately and took medicine to prevent the poison from taking effect, he was still inexplicably poisoned in the end without anyone noticing.
"Why do you feel that way? Didn't God send me to help you?"
Jing Yao turned over and said, "Fairy sister, I'm still so miserable even with you. Does he have any great gods to help him? Why is God betting on both sides?"
The fairy thought for a moment, smiled and shook her head: "God will not do that."
"Then why has Si Jue been so successful all the way..." Jing Yao muttered, "Before, it can be said that Yue Ningning was helping him, but after Yue Ningning died, how come he became even more powerful?"
"What you see may not be true." The fairy waved her sleeves gently, and a shimmering blue light flowed between her fingers, as if casting some kind of magic. She opened her azure eyes and said, "Don't worry, you won't die here."
"Ah? Wait! Fairy sister!"
Before Jing Yao could react, his body suddenly plummeted downwards. Seeing the blue-clad fairy getting further and further away, Jing Yao frantically tried to grab her ribbon, but she was falling too fast and too far away for him to reach.
She had originally wanted to ask the fairy how she could help her. After having this dream twice, she could guess that the Xuantanhua Fairy must have been sent by the heavens to save them because they couldn't bear to watch their misery. But the fairy's words were like riddles; seeing something wasn't always believing it...
What did she see that was fake?
Jing Yao said that Si Jue was even more blessed after Yue Ningning's death. The fairy said that seeing is not necessarily believing. Does this mean that Si Jue's current power is fake? Or... is Yue Ningning's death a lie?
Jing Yao suddenly realized that Yue Ningning was not dead at all!
She should have thought of this earlier. If Yue Ningning had helped Si Jue come back to life and build up his power and ascend to the throne without anyone noticing, then she must be no ordinary person. In comparison, faking her own death wouldn't be that difficult.
She was too confident before, thinking that Yue Ningning was definitely dead just lying there without breathing, but she never thought that she was so resourceful.
But if that's the case, wouldn't Si Jue and Yue Ningning be even more difficult to deal with? !
Jing Yao suddenly felt miserable and his face turned pale.
The speed of falling suddenly slowed down. Jing Yao slowly turned around and faced downwards. Only then did she realize that the endless white space below had transformed into a vast sea of Xuantan flowers.
"this……"
It’s so beautiful.
The breeze stirs up waves of bright blue sea of flowers, layer upon layer, reflecting each other.
Her gaze shifted to the center of the sea of flowers. Before Jing Yao could finish admiring the beauty before her, she couldn't help but scream out in surprise when she saw the scene clearly: "Si Pei!"
The young man was lying calmly among the overlapping and intertwined vines of the starry sky flowers in the sea of stars, just as she had found him before she fell unconscious. If it weren't for his conspicuous white clothes, he might have been lost in the sea of flowers.
"Xiaoli! Si Lihong!"
Jing Yao shouted the young man's name with all his might, hoping that he would wake up from his dream.
If gods could appear here, perhaps Si Pei could also wake up.
Jing Yao was so anxious that she forgot she was still falling. She only realized it when she was about to hit the ground.
"ah!"
There was no pain as she had imagined, Jing Yao thought, this was indeed a dream, nothing could hurt her.
Perhaps it was the Xuantanhua that caught her, or perhaps it was the power in the dream, Jing Yao only felt that she was snuggling into a warm and soft place.
Jing Yao drowsily opened her eyes and found herself back in the sea of stars and flowers. The source of warmth she had clung to in her dream was Si Pei's body.
The young man was peacefully surrounded by the branches of flowers, and his fair face seemed to have more color than before. As the saying goes, people are more beautiful than flowers. Although Si Pei's face is pale now, he is still delicate and handsome. He is indeed more beautiful than this star flower.
"Xiao Li." Jing Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad you're okay."
She let her body fall, gently leaning into the young man's arms: "I thought we would die here together. But now I think being buried in a sea of flowers is a beautiful way to die."
Jing Yao started laughing as she spoke. Now she seemed to be more calm about death.
"Just let me sleep with you forever."
"Really?" The hoarse male voice sounded a little strange because he hadn't spoken for so long, but he still smiled and replied gently: "But let's save this for a hundred years later."
He still wanted to stay sober and be with Jing Yao.
