dark moon

Chapter 690 That Wasn't A Dream

The night is deep, the silver moon rises to the middle of the sky, and the dark moon has already set in the west.

All the lights in the Rose City were dimmed, and the bonfires that brought joy and delicious food were gradually extinguished. At some point, the chirping of insects in the grass on the top of the mountain also stopped the noisy music, and the night finally fell into silence.

The aroma of meat and wine still lingers, lingering above the weak bonfire. The singing has dispersed in the wind, leaving only the lingering sound still echoing in the ears. The tearful laughter always remains in the minds of the participants. It has become a beautiful memory that will never be forgotten.

The song has ended and the people have dispersed.

Old friends come from all over the world in a hurry just to send their heartfelt blessings to their partners and to keep their brightest smiles in their memories.We laughed, cried, made trouble, and got drunk tonight, and it’s time to leave. There are still things to do tomorrow, and we have to face a brand new day.

So, under the moonlight, the friends left one by one. Under the moonlight, each figure became smaller and smaller, leaving only a mess and the happy time beside the campfire.

The song is not over, and the people are not scattered.

Melodious music, bathed in the bright silver moonlight, sounded beside the bonfire on the top of the mountain.

Moria knelt down on all fours, holding an emerald green leaf between her hands and playing softly. It was just an ordinary leaf, but she played a melodious melody. Under the cold moonlight, it seemed like it was coming from a dream. melody.

In the sound of the music, someone hummed softly.

Xiure leaned against the Lin Jing, with his head resting on Moria's soft deer body. He held the ale glass in one hand and tapped the music gently with the other. His eyes were half-open and half-closed, and the tune came out of his nose, sounding carefree. Lazy and casual.

Perhaps due to the anesthesia of alcohol, Xiu Er's usually calm and sharp eyes were now full of confusion. The forest spirit who had been pulling grass for several days must have just taken a bath. The light fragrance came out from the soft fur, lingering in Xiu Er. In the nose, the fragrance is vague and absent, just like the elusive smile of the forest spirit.

The smile was on Lin Jing's face, but it was a little less cunning and a little more gentle. Her long green hair was hanging behind her back, and a few hairs that were as naughty as herself brushed Xiu Er's cheek, tickling her. , but indescribably comfortable.

One person and one deer, leaning on each other silently, looked like a beautiful picture under the moonlight.

The music played by the leaves suddenly stopped. Moria's lower body remained motionless, and her upper body flexibly reached out to fill herself a glass of ale. She turned around and touched Shuer's glass gently, took a few sips, and looked up. He began to exhale a breath that smelled like wine.

"Wine is good wine." He couldn't bear to part with the soft and comfortable pillow. He didn't even move his neck. He just lay there and put the ale into his mouth. Fortunately, he was not an ordinary person, otherwise he would have choked to death. " The party is also a good party. Although you dragged Mia into it, it was actually your idea in the first place."

"Yo, yo", the clear deer cry is the same as before, but the mischievous deer cry sounds warm in the heart at this time, "A wild deer won't come up with ideas."

"Thank you." Xiu'er shook his head and rubbed Lin Jing's back, which was a disguised form of comfort. "It's not easy to summon them all secretly without telling me."

"Hey hey." The standard Lin Jing smirked, his short tail swayed like a moving fur ball, and Moria threw the leaves aside casually, um, this side refers to Shure On the face, "It's not easy, as long as you are happy."

"Oh, I am indeed very happy." Xiure hesitated for a moment and then said softly, "But there is actually no need to be so grand."

"Huh?" "Actually, my mission is not as dangerous as you think." Shuer squinted his eyes and said slowly, "Theoretically, the probability that I can come back alive is very high, otherwise I wouldn't I won’t insist on going.”

"How many theories have successfully turned into reality? Don't you feel guilty when you say this?" Moria asked with a smile, "And...you insist on going? This excuse is too unconvincing. Come on, think of another one."

"No, this is not an excuse. You may not know that Lord Kaia once asked Judy to send me a message, and also mentioned it directly to Lord Luna. If necessary, I can cancel the mission at any time." Shuer finished. A large gulp of ale, and his nerves slightly anesthetized by alcohol gave him the illusion that everything was far away. He closed his eyes and enjoyed being tipsy, and said softly, "I can tell that that is not a polite statement. Lord Kaia is serious. of."

"Yeah." Moria didn't answer. She knew that this was just the nagging caused by alcohol.

"But I refused." Shuer sighed softly, "I have to go."

"Why? Because you promised?"

"That's just one of the reasons." Xiu Er shook his head, the soft deer hair brushed the back of his neck, itching very comfortably, "I haven't explained it to anyone in detail, it's a dream I once had. "

"Oh?"

"I don't want to repeat the details." Shuer seemed to have returned to the original dream, with the flames of war, the fallen gods, the girl's tears, the fallen soldiers, the world on the verge of destruction, the completely shattered hope, everything was... He was so desperate, but what was even more desperate was the sword and arrow that stabbed him. For Shuer, that was the real despair, "That was not a pleasant dream."

"You mentioned it to your mother." Moria half-turned around, gently caressing Shuer's hair with her soft palms, like a mother soothing a child who woke up from a nightmare, "You also said that you never want to see Dreams become reality.”

"Well, I did tell her." Xiure nodded, "I once thought that it was just a dream. It was my paranoia that created the dream."

"Isn't that so?"

"No, absolutely not." Shuer denied without hesitation, "I discovered the problem a year ago. It was by no means an ordinary dream. It was probably a possibility in the future. I just don't know why. I saw a snippet.”

"Master Luna..."

"No, it's not her. I asked. If it was her who saw it to me, she wouldn't hide it, because she knew what I dreamed about, and she also knew that concealing such things would seriously interfere with my judgment." He frowned, feeling confused again, but soon returned to normal.

"Okay, maybe you are right." Moria did not insist and wagged her tail casually, "But why do you think it is a fragment of the future and not a dream?"

"Because something appeared in the dream that I shouldn't know." Xiure's voice became deeper and his eyes narrowed subconsciously, "At that time you... I mean I heard a word at that time, ha, a ceremony."

"Ok?"

"A ceremony of extremely grand scale."
