Flower Moon

On the other side of the mountain, there is a river.This river leads directly to the sea, but it is not salty.It is a freshwater river.The river is surrounded by white soil that looks like snow.There was a heavy chill all around, and the temperature seemed extremely cold.

When the young man walked to the river, he didn't feel the cold at all and naturally washed his hands and feet.Tao Yue'er realized that he came here to wash away the blood on his body.

But the young man did not go down to the river quickly. Instead, he waved to Tao Yue'er to go over.

"What's wrong?" Tao Yue'er asked.

"Just come over here." After the young man finished speaking, Tao Yue'er listened to his words and walked to him without asking any more questions.

The young man picked up a handful of water with his remaining hand and handed it to Tao Yue'er.

"Drink water," he said.

Tao Yue'er looked at the young man's miserable appearance, how could he still be in the mood to drink water?Although she was really thirsty, she still said, "I'll do it myself. You clean your own wounds first."

As Tao Yue'er spoke, he knelt down to drink water, but the boy did not move. He just held the sip of water and looked at Tao Yue'er intently.

But as soon as Tao Yue'er's hand touched the river, she suddenly retracted her hand as if she had been burned.When she looked at her palms again, she found that her hands were already red.

"What's going on?" Tao Yue'er asked in surprise, "Why is this water hot?" It was close to boiling temperature, so her hand would be burned as soon as she touched it.

"You can't adapt to the temperature here. You can only drink the water I gave you." After the young man finished speaking, his hand moved forward a little more. Tao Yue'er had no choice but to obediently lower her head and drink from his hand. Moisture.

Tao Yue'er unconsciously touched the young man's palm, making him feel very strange.Although the sudden intimate action was expected, it made the young man feel even more tortured.

"Haven't you finished your drink yet?"

Tao Yue'er nodded: "I've finished drinking. But..."

"But what?" the young man asked coldly.

"But... I didn't drink enough."

"..."

Tao Yue'er looked at him longingly. The young man was silent for a moment, and then he honestly fetched water from the river for her to drink.After drinking, Tao Yue'er felt that it was not safe, so she asked him to help, scooping up some more and putting it in a bamboo tube, and then put it in a makeup box for storage.The look of cherishing her is more important than the jewelry and jade all over her body.

Water is the source of life. In this wilderness full of monsters, she doesn't know what she will encounter next, but it is right to store more water.

The young man saw her being so careful, holding a bamboo tube of water as if she had found a treasure, and didn't know what to say.

"Don't you need a drink of water?" Tao Yue'er saw the impatient expression on the young man's face and was both afraid and respectful of him. She asked with a bit of flattery, "Would you like to give you an extra bottle for when you're thirsty?"

The young man said solemnly: "I don't need it."

"Why? Everyone needs to drink water. If you drink more water, you may feel better. Look, the corners of your mouth are..."

"No need." Before Tao Yue'er finished speaking, the young man interrupted her and said: "There is no living thing in the wild. Except you."

Tao Yue'er was stunned for a while before she remembered, yes, this is the prehistoric era.There are demons everywhere in the ancient world, and these demons are the fruits of the evil in the hearts of people in the world. They have long since turned into demons that have nothing to do with humans.They are not even human beings, so why do they need to drink water?But the boy didn't look like a monster at all.

He's just a normal guy.

Tao Yue'er thought of this and suddenly realized that the young man was so similar to Hua Ling. Could it be that he was the devil in Hua Ling's heart?

Thinking of this, Tao Yue'er suddenly understood why Hua Ling asked her to kill him.

A thought that should not exist in the world condensed, and then condensed into a demon in the ancient world. The young man was the thought in Hua Ling's heart that should not exist.

What kind of thoughts can make him walk sideways in the wilderness?Let so many monsters bow to him?

And what kind of existence is Hua Ling herself?

Tao Yue'er never thought about this problem before seeing the young man take action.Even though she knew that Hua Ling was very powerful and mysterious, she didn't feel that Hua Ling was far away from her.

But since he saw the young man's status in the ancient world, he was the one who survived the experience of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and he had a powerful deterrent effect on the monsters everywhere.Even if they are not intimidated by him, he can tear them apart from their belly and show no fear when facing the enemy head on.How much resentment does such a person hide in his heart?

What exactly did Hua Ling experience in her childhood?
Who is that goddess statue on the top of the mountain?

Is that person his "inner demon"?

The young man washed away the blood stains on his body, and skillfully dug out a new animal skin from the snowdrift on the side to wear on his body, and then took Tao Yue'er away from the stream.

Tao Yue'er was speechless all the way with countless doubts in her heart.The two of them walked in tandem, seemingly with countless knots lingering in their chests.

Tao Yue'er is for Hua Ling.

As for the young man, it was for Tao Yue'er...

At night, the weather in the wilderness is unpredictable.It may have been a gloomy weather with no wind or rain one moment, and there were no other troubles except clouds in the sky. But the next moment, strong winds may arise from the ground, blowing everything around into the sky, and combined with the pouring rain, make The whole world becomes messy.

That was it for the rest of the night.Tao Yue'er was first woken up by a gust of cold wind. It was so cold that all her limbs ached.Then raindrops fell on me, not ordinary rain, but rain with extremely low temperature, like ice picks pouring on the top of my head.

Tao Yue'er was sleeping outside the tree hole. Before she could react, a figure rushed over quickly. The next moment, a huge animal skin was wrapped around Tao Yue'er's head.

"Go to the cave." The young man held Tao Yue'er in his arms with the huge animal skin on his head, and brought her from outside to his cave.Obviously, this is not the first time the boy has encountered such a situation.

He had lived in the ancient wilderness for a long time and knew very well what might happen in the ancient wilderness, so almost as soon as he heard the news, he rushed out and took Tao Yuer'er back to the cave.

The wind was howling outside, and the big tree also had its own consciousness. It quickly closed its tree hole, and the entire space became airtight, leaving only a slight gap above its head to ensure the circulation of air.

In the tree hole, the young man and Tao Yue'er huddled together.There were no water stains on the boy's body, but Tao Yue'er was already soaked through in a very short period of time.

"You need to change clothes." The boy said slowly.

Tao Yue'er also felt that she needed it, but there was a person who looked like a flower girl staring at her in the small cave. She really didn't know how to change it?
