Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 2051 The Girl
"Quick... run away."

The boy in the basement raised his head blankly, staring at the flames in front of him.

His mind went blank with shock.

Because of the flames before his eyes, spoke.

At the first sound, he thought it was his illusion, but the next moment, the flame supported his face, and a vague female voice came from the center of the flame.

"Why... are you still here?"

"Stay away... from me..."

The woman's voice was very weak and intermittent, but it was still very clear in the silent underground, and he could even hear the worry and anxiety in her voice.

"This……"

The young man with snot and tears on his face stared blankly at the scene in front of him, startled and terrified, his whole body lost the ability to react.

Is he the devil?
Fire actually spoke?

Chu Yan stared like a copper bell,

Or is the fire in front of him actually a person?

Thinking of this, his whole body instantly cooled down, as if he was in an ice cellar.

He has stayed in the Buddhist monastery for five years and has seen too many strange things that the outside world does not have, but he has never seen a person turn into fire.

But...he's seen people turn to mud.

Chu Yan swallowed hard, looked at the dancing flames in front of his eyes and summoned up his courage to ask, "Who are you?"

The flame burned quietly, without any reaction.

Isn't this a person?

Chu Yan blinked, a little disappointed.

After the first two sounds, the flame did not make any sound, and the protruding flame was also retracted, everything was just like an illusion of his.

Chu Yan looked at the fire in front of him and wanted to cry again.

He wanted to do it, and big tears welled up in his eyes again.

At this time, the flame appeared again.

The flame that had supported his cheek before moved to his head this time, stroking it gently, as if comforting a crying child returning home.

It won't be his hallucination this time, right?

Chu Yan stared fixedly at the flame, and bit the tip of his tongue fiercely. The sharp pain came, and his mind became clear.

He turned his eyes upwards, glanced at the flame that looked like a human hand, and asked softly, "Who are you?"

Huo Huo still didn't answer, but took it back after touching his head twice.

"Hey, wait, do you know how to get out?"

Chu Yan asked anxiously.

However, the flames didn't respond, they huddled together and burned quietly, like a dead object.

Ok……

Chu Yan closed his eyes, feeling extremely disappointed in his heart, but this was also the result he had already guessed.

Regardless of whether the fire is a person or a spirit, if it cannot help him get out, then it is useless.Besides, it is trapped here and cannot get out, so how can it know how to help others get out?
Wanting to understand all this, Chu Yan let out a long breath, and sat down in front of the flames dejectedly.

It seemed that the fire was at best able to illuminate it.

only……

Chu Yan looked at the ashes under the flames, full of worry.He carried a basket full of firewood, but during the few hours he stayed in this dark room, the firewood seemed to have burned almost half.

Before, the master of the Chanyuan asked him to send ten catties every day, which means that this fire can burn ten catties of firewood a day.

The pile of flames in front of him probably won't last long.

The boy sitting by the fire stared gloomily at the flames in front of him.His true energy was exhausted and his strength was drained from crying, his eyelids became heavier and heavier.

But Chu Yan kept biting the tip of his tongue to remind himself not to go to sleep. He was very afraid that after he fell asleep like this, the fire would be extinguished when he woke up again. He could only despair a little bit in the dark to death.

But fatigue still swept over his whole body like a tide. After another eyelid fight, Chu Yan's eyes lit up with anger, he grabbed the long sword at his waist, and stabbed it into his thigh.

The sharp pain made him awake for a while, but the next moment he realized that he had done something stupid.

A fresh blood filled the air, and his vision became more and more blurred.

Although the severe pain awakened his sanity, his wounds could not heal in time due to the depletion of true energy, and blood flowed into the cracks of the bricks, and his whole body was paralyzed due to blood loss.

He's also... really stupid.

However, this method of death is also good, it is better than turning into a mummy here a little bit.

The little boy fell to the ground with a clang, and the hilt of the sword slipped across his palm.

Chu Yan pressed his head against the cold floor tiles, and as far as he could see was the pool full of mud and blood.

He opened his eyes wide, looking at the pool, and gradually lost consciousness.

Chu Yan stood in the long river of memory, quietly looking at himself who had passed out.

It is also the first time he has examined his memories as an adult.

Thinking about it now, everything that happened after that was like a dream.

At that time, he lost a lot of blood and his mind was dizzy, everything that happened was like a dream, and even now it is difficult for him to judge whether everything he saw at that time was a dream or real.

There was silence in the dark basement.

The little boy was lying on the ground, blood pooled under him.

It was clearly his own body in front of him, but he seemed to be standing aside watching this scene.

Chu Yan's eyes darkened slightly. This was not his delusion, but his definite memory.

Looking back afterwards, he guessed that he should have had a short-term out-of-body phenomenon.

But no matter whether it was his soul coming out of his body or he was simply dreaming, the scene he saw afterwards remained in his life forever, imprinted in his eyes, and he could never forget it.

"You...why don't you run away?"

Just as his soul was out of his body, standing beside his sleepy body and staring blankly at himself on the ground, a slender female voice suddenly came from behind him.

Chu Yan's whole body seemed to be frozen, and he turned his head slowly.

Turning around, he saw her.

The pool that was full of black mud before he passed out suddenly became extremely bright red, full of blood.

In this pool of blood, he saw a young girl in white.

She was dressed in thin clothes, and her arms were tied with chains. The chains hung down from the top of the cave, and her lower body was soaked in blood.

Chu Yan watched this scene as if his soul had really come out of his body, and then realized belatedly that the pool was not empty.

This girl trapped underground is the reason for the existence of this cell.

He suddenly lowered his head to look at the fire by the pool, and then he was surprised to find that the fire had disappeared.

The side of the pool was clean and spotless, even the ashes that had been burned before were gone.

No, maybe they never showed up.

Chu Yan looked at the girl soaked in the pool of blood, and felt it was difficult to breathe.

When there is that fire, you can't see her, and when you see her, you can't see the fire.

Does this mean that she is actually the fire?
