Flower Moon

The young man stood in the sea of ​​​​blood among the mountains of corpses, covered in blood, and seemed to be injured.

"Are you okay?" Tao Yue'er stood not far away and called to the young man.

When the young man heard Tao Yue'er's voice, he was obviously stunned for a moment. At this moment, the not-yet-dead monster waiting for an opportunity beside him suddenly raised its head and bit him.When it bit the boy's arm, the boy struck the monster with a palm of his other hand.The monster neighed for the last time and fell heavily on the corpse.There was no sound.The young man, with a broken hand, did not look at the monster, but looked at Tao Yue'er without moving for a moment.

"Why are you here?" The young man gasped and asked Tao Yuer angrily.

Tao Yue'er hurriedly ran over and supported him as he was shaking: "You're injured!"

"I know." The young man looked at her coldly: "Go quickly and get out of here."

"I..." The young man issued an eviction order, but Tao Yue'er didn't know how to leave here.The only person in the world who can communicate with her is the young man, but Hua Ling entrusts her with a dream that only by killing the young man can she leave here.But how could she deal with a boy who looked very similar to Hua Ling?

Even if he didn't look like Hua Ling, she couldn't do it.

She couldn't kill an innocent person for her own purposes, no matter who it was.

And...she couldn't beat him.

Suddenly, the young man's eyes widened and he looked at Tao Yue'er in great surprise.

"What's wrong?" Tao Yue'er asked him, but the next moment, a bloody roar sounded from behind her, deafening. Tao Yue'er could clearly see that her hair and the young man's hair were all blown by this roar. Blow up.The next moment, the young man pushed Tao Yue'er away violently, and Tao Yue'er was pushed away from where he was. When he turned around, he saw a giant creature about ten feet tall standing behind the two of them with its bloody mouth open, and the young man The whole person blocked in front of her.

The giant beast closed its open mouth, and the boy was swallowed by him.

"No!" Tao Yue'er was stunned.She had never expected that such a powerful young man, who showed no fear in the face of all the beasts, would actually lose his life trying to save her.

The world became quiet at this moment, and the monster that swallowed the boy seemed not to have thought that he could kill the boy so easily.

It stared at Tao Yue'er with its huge eyes, and was opening its bloody mouth again, ready to swallow Tao Yue'er too. Suddenly, its forehead burst out with a dazzling red light, and then its whole body seemed to Like a crack from the center, the beast was torn in half in a huge struggle.The boy, covered in blood, used his only remaining hand to tear it open from the center of his abdomen.

The giant beast roared one last time, split its body into two, and fell heavily from the sky. The young man landed in front of Tao Yue'er first and kicked away the half of Tao Yue'er's body that was about to hit him.

Apart from some splashes of blood, Tao Yue'er's body had no other injuries.

Tao Yue'er felt that the young man was protecting her.

"I hope you're okay, it scared me to death! I thought you were eaten by him!" Tao Yue'er hugged the young man like Hua Ling.

But the young man was obviously much shorter than Hua Ling. His head was resting on Tao Yue'er's elbow, and he looked like he was being embraced like he had never seen before.

When the young man saw Tao Yue'er looking like this, he became extremely panicked.

He was imprisoned in Tao Yue'er's arms, not daring to move at all, as if Tao Yue'er's behavior was more lethal than those ferocious beasts in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"You, you are not doing this right!" After a moment, the young man finally recovered from his confusion and pushed Tao Yue'er away.

That defensive look seemed to hate Tao Yue'er from the bottom of his heart.

Only then did Tao Yue'er realize that she had crossed a certain line.

"Sorry, I didn't do it unintentionally in a hurry, I'm sorry..." Tao Yue'er also felt that her actions were too abrupt.It was because he was so much like Hua Ling that Tao Yue'er couldn't accept Hua Ling's departure.He also naturally projected his feelings towards Hua Ling onto the young man.

The boy's eyes were red, and even his face was a little red.But because his face was covered in blood, it wasn't obvious.

He turned his head away from Tao Yue'er. Although he was still a little embarrassed and angry, it seemed to be a wise move to leave here now.

"Next time, don't act alone." The young man walked in front and said to Tao Yuer.

Tao Yue'er didn't understand: "Why?"

"It's dangerous here. You're not the one who should be here. You are different from us."

"What's the difference?" Tao Yuer'er wondered: "Although I am indeed different from those beasts, there seems to be no difference between you and me. Why can you live well but I can't?"

"I'm not living a good life." The young man was silent for a while and then said, "I can't leave here, and you don't belong here."

"Why?" Tao Yue'er didn't understand.

Although she is indeed not from this world and realizes that this world is very different from the outside world, the boy is obviously here, so why can't they leave together?Do you have to die to be free?

The boy didn't answer.Although Tao Yue'er had deep doubts, she did not continue to ask further questions.

From what she knew of him, if he wanted to tell her, he would.But if he doesn't want to say it, then no matter how she asks, there will be no result.

Just like Hua Ling.

Tao Yue'er suddenly felt that the two of them looked more and more alike.

Could this be Hua Ling's childhood?
When he was a child, Hua Ling was even more mature than when he grew up. His air of being distant from others made people feel even more alienated than when he was older.

She is the only one who can always stay by Hua Ling's side...

Tao Yue'er was thinking about it when the young man in front suddenly stopped and turned around to look at her: "Why are you laughing?"

Tao Yue'er was stunned and said, "Did I laugh?"

"You're laughing."

Tao Yue'er touched the corners of her mouth and realized that she seemed to be really smiling.

But in such an occasion, 'laughing' is really inappropriate.Especially when there was blood all around, corpses everywhere, and the young man also had a broken arm. He was holding his broken arm, walking in front of him firmly and hobblingly.She smiled behind her at this time, which was really ironic.

"Sorry, I just thought of a friend. He... is very similar to you." Tao Yuer'er said: "I'm not laughing at you, I'm just thinking that if you can meet, you will definitely be able to see yourself in each other. ." Then, the two looked at each other in disgust.

They will never be the people that the other person likes, but they are so similar.

"I don't understand what you are talking about." The young man snorted coldly, turned around and continued moving forward.Tao Yue'er immediately followed.
