Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 2270 That Night
"Please let this all end."

These words echoed in Ying Baoyue's ears like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning.

After Lin Shubai said this, he stood up from the roof, looking at Ying Baoyue with reluctance, but also determination.

"Master!"

Ying Baoyue read from her eyes that she was leaving, fear and loneliness suddenly enveloped her whole body, she reached out and grabbed Lin Shubai's skirt.

"Yue'er," Lin Shubai knelt down and held her hand, "I really want to stay with you for a while, but it's getting dawn, so I have to go."

The moment of miracle is almost over.

The time of sunset and sunrise is the time when day and night alternate, and it is also the time when two different worlds meet. It is called the time of encountering magic, and unimaginable things can often happen.

Unfortunately, such time is very short.

Lin Shubai knew in her heart that she couldn't stay here anymore.

Ying Baoyue also understood.

But in front of Lin Shubai, she could never restrain the urge to act like a baby.Only in front of Lin Shubai, she was the little girl who was sheltered.

Ying Baoyue loosened the corner of her skirt inch by inch, raised her head, and stared at her protector.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that Lin Shubai was crying.

"Master?"

Ying Baoyue stared at her blankly, losing the ability to react.

It is extremely rare for Lin Shubai to shed tears.She didn't cry when she left Ji Mo, she didn't cry when she gave birth to the child desperately, she didn't cry when the great Qin founding war was won.

But at this moment, she was crying.

Lin Shubai cried very quietly. If you don't look carefully, it's even hard to find that she is crying.

Crystal clear teardrops slid down her cheeks and fell on Ying Baoyue's face.

Ying Baoyue suddenly didn't want to let go of the corner of her skirt in her hand.

But at this moment, Lin Shubai took a step back and pulled the skirt out of her palm.

"Yue'er, I'm sorry," Lin Shubai looked at her with a smile, "Remember, don't look back."

"Do not be afraid."

"No matter what happens, I'm by your side."

Even if countless time and space are separated, when you really cry, I will come to your side.

Ying Baoyue looked up into Lin Shubai's eyes, as if the other party hadn't said anything, as if he had said everything again.

"Master, is this your promise?"

"Of course," Lin Shubai stared into her eyes, "Have I ever lied to you?"

Ying Baoyue was silent.

Lin Shubai had never lied to her before his death.

But why, in the end you left me alone?

Ying Baoyue didn't say this question in the end.Such a question should not be asked to the Lin Shubai in her memory.

She came here to find the answer to this question.

This is something she needs to figure out on her own.

"I see," Ying Baoyue withdrew her hand, she had already sorted out her mood.

"Master, be careful on the road."

"Well, I'm leaving."

With tears of laughter in his eyes, Lin Shubai disappeared into the night that was left before dawn.

After her figure disappeared, Ying Baoyue lowered her head and said the words that Lin Shubai couldn't hear.

"Master, thank you."

No matter when, whether life or death, her master protects her.

Then, she has nothing to hesitate.

Parting makes people sad, but letting go just now not only settled the regret in Ying Baoyue's heart, but also made her make up her mind.

Ying Baoyue wiped away the tears on Lin Shubai's face, and stood up from the roof.

As Lin Shubai said, it is her mission to bring everything to an end.

She already knew what to do.

Someone will get hurt, she can't save everyone, but she will take it all and never regret it.

"elder sister!"

"Sister, where are you?"

The young man's frightened call interrupted Ying Baoyue's thoughts. Ying Baoyue lowered his head and saw Xiao Li Ji rushing out of the room in a quilt, looking around in panic.

Ying Baoyue was startled, and then remembered the look at her from the boy in the lake.

With just one glance, everything becomes different.

"Holding the moon, the life of a practitioner is not that long."

Lin Shubai's words rang in her ears, and Ying Baoyue took a long breath.

The time she can be with him is as short as morning dew to his life.

Although Lin Shubai told her not to let herself regret it, how could she let him bear all this with her?

Just like Lin Shubai didn't want to tell herself what she was doing, she also couldn't bear to drag such a young child into the water.

More importantly, she didn't do this in her previous life.

Standing on the roof, Ying Baoyue exhaled deeply, with a helpless smile on her face.

"Don't look for it, I'm here."

She jumped off the roof and walked towards Li Ji.

……

……

After thinking about everything, the passage of time in memory becomes faster.

Soon, soon, that night came.

Eight years ago, on the day of Xiao Li Ji's birthday.

Xiao Li Ji didn't remember her own birthday. When she asked him, the boy's eyes were very guilty, and the date he said happened to be a few days before she picked him up.

Calculated in this way, it has been almost a year since she met Xiao Li Ji.

It has been half a year since I took him to the lake for a trial and came back after meeting the eclipse dragon.

Ying Baoyue sat on the steps of the door, quietly looking up at the sky.

Many pictures emerge from the clouds and mist that hang over the cloud forest all year round.

In half a year, she did many things with him.

Practice swords, go fishing, go to the market, wear hairpins, raise animals, bathe in the river, and have a picnic in the forest.

She also met a lot of people.

Some people came to see her, and some people she took the initiative to meet.

It seems that she stays in the cloud forest and does not care about worldly affairs, but only she knows in her heart that she has not fully kept her promise in the forbidden place.

But she doesn't do much to change the future, mostly following past memories.

Although she really wanted to change the past and save those she failed to save in the past, the words Lin Shubai said when he left were deeply in her heart.

The Butterfly Effect.

Ying Baoyue's fingertips dug deep into her palm. She did know the fate of many people in advance. If she changed some arrangements, she might be able to change some things, but she couldn't change the final result.

After all, this place is just an illusion, an illusion constructed by her memory.

In the past six months, Ying Baoyue also tried to change some small things, and found that if they were turned upside down, they would return to the final ending.

Ying Baoyue closed her eyes, feeling like a knife was twisting her heart.

This means that she cannot change the ending at all, just as she cannot change what has happened in the past.

If she wants to change forcefully, for example, if she wants to change the ending of someone's death.Then according to the law of the butterfly effect, she is likely to cause the death of another person who would not otherwise die.

Before the end came, Ying Baoyue could turn a blind eye to the little things that happened, but now he can't.

If there is nothing wrong with the scattered memory fragments she saw before, then tonight, she will be the first to usher in the death of one person.

Ying Baoyue lowered her head and called out the name in a low voice.

"Chunlan..."

　Does anyone remember Li Chunlan?
