Tomorrow's Ark, raised by children

midnight.

Looking up at the ceiling, the elder let out a sigh of relief, frowned, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands.

What happened recently?Why are you having nightmares so often?Could it be that he was possessed by that little eleven?

A faint sense of absent-mindedness flashed across her pink-purple pupils, making her look so sentimental.

She raised her hand and looked at her hand under the hazy moonlight.

The hands that are full of tattoos and have a bright red background present a clear and soft texture, which is uniquely beautiful under the light.

Then she turned the palm over and over again, looking at it carefully.

She is a fairy.

but......

In time, that guy...would wake up from his dream, and the existence in his fantasy dream would disappear, not even a little bit of dregs would be left...

He is obviously a fairy, but he has to be trapped in such affairs...

His eyes drifted away, and the palm began to become transparent.

"Miss Nian?"

The soft call of the little ghost came from the ear.

"What's wrong?" Nian responded softly.

It's already very late, it's already this time...why hasn't he fallen asleep yet?

Could it be that he did something during the nightmare that disturbed him?

The way I looked just now... must be ugly, I'm afraid I didn't want to make him see a joke.

"Have you had a nightmare?"

"Bullshit."

One fairy and one person, one big and one small, they talked calmly and quietly.

"You are obviously having a nightmare! You are stubborn!"

"I learn it from you."

"Bullshit!"

Zhang Yubai moved his body.

After all, it was late at night, and his mind was still a little fuzzy... so much so that he ignored the fact that he was sharing the same bed with Nian, and was just talking normally.

People's brains are always not clear enough in the middle of the night.

"Why are you still awake?" Probably because the nightmare made Nian's mood not so good, she didn't tease and bicker with this kid as usual.

"I had a nightmare..."

This time, the kid told the truth very honestly.

"Oh? What nightmare did you have?" Nian turned his face to look at the brat.

Zhang Yubai hugged the pillow, curled up, his delicate face was full of timidity.

No matter how good-looking a child is on weekdays who loves to be brave, he has become completely vulnerable because of having nightmares...

Nightmare reactions are often what people fear the most... No matter how strong a person is in the face of his own shadow, he will show a weak side.

"I dreamed...a lot of blood...a lot." Zhang Yubai whispered.

"Who is lying in the blood?"

"Brother, and... father."

"..."

It is family affection.

Family affection is the weakness of human beings and the bottom line of those with moral conscience.

Anyone who abandons family affection is not worthy of being called a human being.

And the brat in front of him was obviously a human being.

"Don't be afraid." Nian subconsciously coaxed, she reached out to Zhang Yubai's face and brushed his hair away. "Will not."

"Will not?"

"Will not."

The year is determined and authentic.

After thinking about it, Nian still understood.

In these two months, Zhang Yuting went out several times, although the time would not exceed one day, but Zhang Yubai would still get along with Nian.

A child, separated from, worried about, is vulnerable.

Although I don't know if Zhang Yubai knows something, Nian understands that his worry about Zhang Yuting...is very strong.

Whenever this happens, he will reveal his weak side.

But I was always by his side at this time, giving him comfort.

And every time I can wait for Zhang Yuting's safe return.

Coupled with the magical power displayed by Nian, Nian has already occupied a very high position in Zhang Yubai's heart, forming a sense of reliability.

And... Zhang Yubai began to rely on Nian.

Rely on that sense of reliability.

Relying on me... is really not a good choice.

Nian secretly said in his heart.

However, she was clearly aware of all this, but she was still unwilling to give up comforting this child.

She didn't understand what was wrong with her.

"Did you know something?" After thinking about it, Nian finally decided to ask the little question in his heart.

"Yeah." Zhang Yubai nodded slowly, "I know, a group of people want to kill me, and my father."

...Did you really know?

"When did you know?"

"A long time ago..."

"Then why did you act like you didn't know before—"

"My father said that people have to learn...to lie to themselves." Zhang Yubai said slowly.

Are you lying to yourself?

Hearing this, Nian couldn't help being stunned.

The little child spoke from the heart...and what he said made Nian feel a little dumbfounded.

"My brother didn't actually hit a rock to death." He said again, "He was killed by those people... When I was very young... Later my father took Follow me to Shangshu."

Nian was silent.

"Sister Nian, do you think I look like a human or a god?" After a long time, Zhang Yubai asked without any background.

"You... know this too?"

Young was somewhat surprised.

She understood what Zhang Yubai wanted to say.

"The important thing is why you know, sister Nian." Zhang Yubai sighed, "But... you can sense it, right?"

People in the middle of the night are always used to expressing what is in their hearts, and at this time they will become easily sad, and what they say will be cast with a shadowy filter.

"I didn't have a mother since I was a child... I only knew my father and my brother... Someone told me that my mother was a fairy, a god... and my brother inherited my mother's blood, and Ability." Zhang Yubai continued, "Before my brother died...he crawled up to us, he held me down, head to head, and I felt...something changed."

"I found out later that I inherited everything from my brother."

Little devil's brother....

Probably a nice guy too.

"My father said that everything in this person is born in accordance with a trajectory called destiny. There must be an effect when there is a cause, and good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil... He said that it is his brother who will die. Fate...but I don't understand..."

——"Why don't you crush that thing called fate?"

"Crush it, and you will die." Nian interrupted.

"If you don't crush it, it will kill my brother, my father, and me." Zhang Yubai said with some anger, "Then why didn't I crush it first? Who Are you sure you will die?"

Nian froze.

She remembered what the kid said back then.

She smiled.

"Okay..." She stroked the kid's face, "Go to sleep now."

"Sister Nian, what nightmare did you have?"

Zhang Yubai seemed to be rather sleepy, and under Nian's care, he became more and more unable to open his eyes.

"Don't tell you."

so funny.

He knows it all...

You shouldn't avoid him, you should find an opportunity... Let him see the faces of those people this time.

Volume 16: Sophistication: Chapter 16 No.[-]: The Storyteller

"wake up!"

In the early morning, when the scorching sun gets rid of the chasing clouds and mist, when the sun shines on the entire land of Shangshu, the shadows of the mountains are layered together...

Nian lifted Zhang Yubai's quilt.

"Well......"

Looking at the little ghost's appearance, he obviously has a bed problem.

I saw Zhang Yubai rubbing his eyes, trying hard to open them, but only persisted for a few seconds, but closed them again.

Can't wake up at all...

"Get up!"

Nian shouted again.

"Can't afford it!"

"Are you really sorry?" Nian, who was dressed in his usual clothes, raised his eyebrows.

"Manly man, if you can't afford it, you can't afford it!"

Yo, it's pretty tough.

Nian then grabbed the kid by the horns and pulled him over, "Then I'll help you change your clothes."

"Hey hey!"

Zhang Yubai shuddered, hastily broke away from Kai Nian's clutches, and shrank to the bedside.

"I get up, can't I get up..."

Just muttering like this, Zhang Yubai obediently got up under Nian's gaze.

Nian naturally went out when changing clothes.

After a brief wash, the two went outside to have breakfast.
