Du Ze looked at the bright moon above the Elf Lake. The huge moon was like a round wheel hanging in the dark night sky. As a Chinese, when he saw the full moon, he would naturally think of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The time calculation method in the alien world was different from that on Earth, so Du Ze could not be sure when the Mid-Autumn Festival in China was here.
Speaking of Mid-Autumn Festival, in addition to the mooncakes that foodies must miss, there is also the well-known legend - Chang'e flying to the moon.
"What are you thinking about?"
A familiar breath surrounded him from behind. Du Ze was held in Xiu's arms. The man kissed his hair and asked softly.
"A legend."
"Um?"
Xiu's slightly upturned ending tone showed that he was listening attentively. Du Ze considered his words and then began to explain the story of Mid-Autumn Festival and Chang'e flying to the moon. In order to tell the story of Chang'e flying to the moon, Du Ze also talked about Houyi shooting down the sun. He was a little brief because he had to replace some concepts of the Celestial Dynasty mythology, setting Houyi as the god of arrows, Chang'e stealing the elixir became stealing the godhood, and ascending to immortality was replaced by becoming a god.
After listening to Hou Yi shooting down the sun and Chang'e flying to the moon, Xiu pondered for a moment, then hugged Du Ze tightly and asked: "Hou Yi likes Chang'e very much?"
Du Ze nodded. If he didn't like it, he wouldn't have gone to the Queen Mother of the West to ask for two elixirs of immortality for Chang'e.
"Why didn't he chase after her?"
"He can't catch up." Du Ze didn't know how to explain to Xiu, so he could only vaguely say: "Only gods can enter there, and Hou Yi failed to become a god."
"Chang'e stayed on the moon forever, and Houyi died in the end?"
"kindness."
Xiu was silent for a while, and then concluded: "How stupid..."
Du Ze also felt that Chang'e should not have stolen Hou Yi's two immortality pills. Even if she became an immortal, she would end up living in loneliness in Guanghan Palace for eternity.
Chang'e should regret stealing the elixir, as her heart is filled with the blue sky and the blue sea every night.
Xiu buried his head in Du Ze's shoulder, his eyes so deep that not a single light could penetrate them.
How foolish! That archer named Hou Yi!
Since you have the power to shoot down the sun, why don't you destroy the moon?
If he could no longer keep the other person, he would simply take the person who was about to leave him and bury him together.
Xiu sniffed Du Ze's breath. This man had been the same since he first met him. He had never changed. Even though he had completely left his adolescence and become a young man, this man was still the same as he was at the beginning. It was as if time was frozen.
Whether it is the story of Cecil or the Thief King, they are both writing about the tragedy of time. All living things in this world will age and die, even the so-called immortal dead will perish after a long period of decay. Only gods can be immortal in the entire continent.
If he fails to become a god, then...
Xiu bit Du Ze's neck lightly, and kissed Du Ze's lips when Du Ze turned around in shock.
"Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."
Du Ze could only see tenderness in Xiu's eyes. He felt the warmth on his lips, closed his eyes and raised the corners of his lips.
"…Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."
