lost narrative poem

Chapter 402

"Why don't you go on?"

Noticing Xia Ran's obvious pause, he hesitated to speak, Yukinoshita looked over again and tilted his head.

She probably didn't realize it herself, this kind of action is very cute.

"Well, tonight..." Xia Ran blinked, watched her and said slowly.

tonight?What about tonight... Yukinoshita was slightly taken aback, as if thinking of something, but she tried to stay calm on the surface, but her expression was more or less unbelievable.

"The wind is very noisy tonight."

"..."

"..."

A gust of wind blew by, and the leaves rustled. In this quiet night, the sound traveled very far, and it was indeed very noisy.

Yukinoxia withdrew her gaze expressionlessly, without any words, she just sighed softly, the voice was so small that it was almost inaudible.

It's just that she clenched her fist behind her back so hard that her knuckles turned white, but subconsciously let go.

It wasn't that famous sentence, which naturally made her feel greatly relieved, because she was indeed not prepared at all, and she was even ready to give a cold response, and then quickly leave the scene... When there is no card to play at the beginning, the only option is to retreat strategically.

But while she breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt a little strange for no reason.

What was I thinking just now? That kind of thing is impossible, right?Really immature... The girl continued to look up at the night sky, her expression as cold as ever.

"..."

"..."

In this strange silence, Xia Ran walked over silently without saying anything, and he was used to this subtle and strange atmosphere long ago, so he wouldn't say he was embarrassed or anything.

Instead, there is only a sense of habitual comfort. After all, the relationship between the two has always been like this, so it is very natural for him to look up at the starry sky, as if nothing happened just now.

Strictly speaking, he did have an inexplicable impulse just now, but after thinking about it, he resolutely rejected that idea.For no other reason than to know the result.

And Yukinoshita definitely knew the meaning of that sentence, and it would be difficult to explain it as pure emotion at that time... Of course, he cut off this tendency decisively, so that the two parties can maintain the current more comfortable relationship.

The sky is full of stars shining brightly, and the Milky Way Xiaohan is like a shining belt of light, spanning the eternity of the world.Under this vast sea of ​​stars, facing the silver light all over the sky, the two stood quietly.

At this time, Xia Ran suddenly realized that she had never looked at the starry sky so seriously.

After all, it seemed that there was nothing good-looking in the past.The light pollution in big cities is so serious that you can't see the stars.

And when he was in the real world, he basically never left the confines of big cities, at most he just went from one city to another——

As for being in the time and space of the dream, even if you live in the wild sometimes, you are basically struggling all the time. When you occasionally cast your eyes on the starry sky, you are full of thoughts about the direction and time, and you have no leisure time. What a view to enjoy.

So until now, he seems to be in the mood to be in Gensokyo, watching the starry night sky quietly.

Time passed in a minute and a second.

The surrounding woods occasionally have a cool breeze blowing, and the leaves will rustle accordingly, and the summer insects hiding in the grass will make a cry, playing the midsummer song when the cool breeze blows gently at night. symphony.

Staring at Xia Ye's deep blue sky, Xia Ran suddenly lowered her head, smiled lightly and shook her head, as if she had figured something out.

"You seem very happy?"

The long, black, straight girl next to him gave him a strange look, because she actually heard a hint of relief and relaxation from that laughter, and even a hint of joy.

So she suddenly became suspicious and thought of a possibility.

"Huh? Is it so obvious?"

Xia Ran smiled softly, but he didn't intend to hide it, he just said this very honestly——

"But I'm really very happy now, I've never been so happy."

"So? What's the reason?" Yukinoshita continued to ask with a seemingly calm tone. "Did you find out that this place is the world that really suits you? Are you planning to stay?"

Huh?

Xia Ran subconsciously turned her head to look at her, but found that the girl was still looking up at the starry sky, as if what she said just now was not what she said at all.

"It's not because of this, but...although there were a lot of accidents this time, but in terms of the results, it helped me shorten at least three... three troublesome transition periods."

The magician said with a smile, but his eyes were far and deep. Looking at the starry sky, he stretched out his hand and clenched his fist, as if he wanted to hold the whole world into his hands.

"This is the first time that I have definitely felt that fate is within reach, and I am no longer in control of everything, and I don't even know if I will die somewhere."

There seemed to be a faint flash of light in his eyes, like a mysterious trajectory composed of criss-crossing lines.He is now able to see the disillusionment of time and space, and can simply observe countless line-like trajectories distributed throughout the world.

——This is the manifestation of his perception ability has begun to get involved in the causality, time and space, and observed a little "fate".

Now that he has mastered the ability to start observing parallel worlds, it is impossible for him to remain confined to the horizon of the narrow three-dimensional universe. It can be said that this is a huge bonus brought by the second method, even if there are many people who are stronger than him. Humans are far from being able to do this.

But this is also normal. The difference in main abilities will always lead to certain people being extremely superior in certain aspects, but only in certain aspects... Just like Yakumo Zi in the past, she can see Realm, manipulating the realm, and Fengjian Youxiang has no way to do it, but can only vaguely sense the changes in the realm.

But this doesn't mean that the former is absolutely better than the latter, it can only be said that she has an advantage in realm, that's the reason.

Xia Ran is also in the same situation. Because of his ability, he can lead many existences of the same level in perception, and even start to observe the possibility of time and space, cause and effect, and even parallel worlds.

However, he is still very satisfied. Even though his real combat power is weak, he has finally come to this point... What the magician of the realm brings, in fact, apart from the enhancement and increase of the basic attributes, that is, the integration and combing of the ability system .

This saved him a lot of time that should have stuck him for a long time, but the real point was the achievement of the second magic, which made him break through to this height, and for the first time felt that he had a chance to control his destiny...

The most direct manifestation is that the fear of death is no longer lingering and lingering, which made him really feel relaxed.

It's been a long, long time, and his nerves have been tense for too long, too long...

But when he was in a good mood, he naturally spoke more casually, and Yukinoshita also turned to look at his face in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment, and was completely stunned.

She looked at his side face under the moonlight, and found that the other person's expression was very natural, as if what he said just now was true and taken for granted.

I can't control anything, and I don't even know if I will die somewhere... The girl pursed her lips tightly. Did he always face such danger?

"what happened?"

Xia Ran didn't hear the sound, turned her head to look, and then immediately understood, apologetically tapped her forehead lightly with her fist——

"Sorry, what I said just now was a bit out of my mind... But that's all happened before, at least now it's like I said, it's much better than before."

"..."

"..."

Yukinoshita stared at his face carefully for a long while, seemed to be sure that he was not lying, then nodded lightly and only sighed slightly melancholy.

Then there was unspeakable silence again, the midsummer insects were chirping cheerfully, and as the night got darker, the chill gradually became more apparent.But there was still no embarrassment, both of them had already gotten used to such an atmosphere.

Xia Ran hesitated for a moment, organized his words again, and then said:

"Speaking of which, I'm here to send you back. According to the usual practice, there will be a banquet at the Hakurei Shrine tomorrow... But I think they probably don't feel that way now, and they haven't even adjusted their worldview. Every extra second is suffering..."

He tried his best to speak euphemistically. Although some things are true and he has good intentions, it is very likely that people will misunderstand them because they are not clear.

"Oh, I see, do you want me to inform them?" Yukino asked in a very flat tone, lowering her head and kicking the gravel beside her feet.

"Yes, but it's best to explain first, everyone will celebrate at the Hakurei Shrine tomorrow, and there is no problem in holding a banquet..." Xia Ran nodded, "If they really feel reluctant, Then tell them they can go back now, and I will arrange it."

"Well, then are you going to stay for the banquet?"

"I have to deal with today's matter and let those people find their way back..." Xia Ran nodded, she still had to deal with this matter by herself, and she couldn't just let it go.

"Oh." Yukinoshita nodded calmly, as if there was no other problem, she turned around and walked towards the double-storey building behind her.

"Well, classmate Yukinoshita..." Xia Ran stopped her.

"Ok?"

"I have no plans to stay in Gensokyo, and I will go back tomorrow at the latest."

The girl was stunned for a moment, and then immediately returned to normal. She looked away and said coldly, "Understood, but whether you want to stay or not is none of my business..."

After leaving such a sentence, Yukinoshita turned and left without any hesitation, but the moment she turned around, the corners of her mouth could not help but rise.

The faint haze that had permeated my heart disappeared soundlessly—just like when it appeared soundlessly.
