Manyo's boat stopped abruptly on the sea. In the vast world without any reference, in the eyes of the girl, that small boat was like the center of the world.

The girl is not good at water. After all, there has been no occasion in her short life where she needed to go into the water. And she just chased him out when her head was hot. She had not preset the situation in her mind that she needed to go into the water.

The huge sea surface was completely empty, which made her feel somewhat confused and helpless.

What can she do-

There was something she could do.

The girl looked at her hand and tentatively reached into the sea water. The elemental power condensed in the palm of her hand and an icicle appeared in the sea water.

——Manye is a very perceptive person. Even at the bottom of the sea, the girl is willing to believe that he senses something slightly wrong.

What's more, an icicle appeared out of thin air.

Furthermore, if there is such an icicle, people at the bottom of the sea can also have a place to use strength to climb up.

In general, this is the best way that a person who is not familiar with water can think of at the moment.

After all, jumping into the water rashly will cause trouble for them, right?

Lying by the water all the time is actually a very tiring and boring thing.

The girl wanted to concentrate on staring at the movement on the water, but she still couldn't help but fly away. She didn't even notice the slight sway of the icicle under her hand.

"It's just in time, Miss Broken Joan."

From the girl's perspective, the wet Manyo suddenly appeared. In her field of vision, she first saw a wet and too white hand holding the edge of the boat, and the next second, there was a hand dripping with water. head appears.

The girl was inevitably startled, and her whole body trembled. The boat, which was already not so stable, shook violently for a while, and the whole boat flipped sideways into the water.

"Wow!"

Wanyo, who had just climbed up, was pushed into the water again by the accompanying force, but he still did not lose his position. He turned over in the sea and swam towards the girl.

"what......"

The girl was lifted up by Manyo's shoulders. The girl regained her breath and formed a layer of ice on the sea surface, allowing the two of them to climb up awkwardly to get a breather.

"Ahem...Sorry, are you okay?"

The girl didn't even have time to wipe the seawater off her face, before she reached out and held Wanyu's wrist.

Well, the pulse is clear and strong, it doesn't look like something is wrong.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, but Manyo smiled and stretched out his hand, wiped away the water stains on the girl's face, and gently rubbed her eyes twice so that the girl could open her eyes effortlessly.

"What happened? I...everyone is worried about you."

"Did you find something?"

I don't know if it's because she just fell into the water, but the girl's eyes are a little red and wet at this time. She doesn't need to deliberately play with them, but she has a lovable atmosphere.

Knowing what the girl was expecting, Manyo looked away:

"I... saw Sister Qiao's..."

Wanyo did not dare to continue talking - this meant that what he found was not as simple as a "person" or a "corpse".

Probably even more brutal in fact, more...bloody.

"This is the only thing I can bring back to Brother Zhao."

Manyo took out a necklace from his pocket.

It was a braided necklace, not very expensive, but the girl recognized it at a glance——

This belongs to Sister Qiao, she almost never leaves her body.

"Others, I collected as much as possible and buried them."

Manyo smiled sheepishly:

"I just stayed underwater for a long time and got cramps. Fortunately, I was able to climb up because of the ice you made."

"......Um."

The girl understood, but she couldn't bear to think about it.

Those who survive are very cruel to those who have died, because they always have the opportunity to pity and grieve for those who died.

But those who died had nothing but death.

"..."

"Woo——"

The girl still couldn't hold it back, she knelt down on the ice and cried.

"Qiao, Sister Qiao, she is obviously a very good person."

"Why, why didn't I-"

"Broken Joan..."

Amid the girl's cries, Wan Ye also felt his eyes burning. He reached out with a trembling hand and pressed the girl's wet head onto his shoulder.

Only each other is left on the vast sea, and the named or nameless souls buried in the blue.

"......follow me."

The girl's wrist, Manyyo, stepped on the edge of the ice and jumped into the water extremely smoothly.

"I!"

The girl closed her eyes urgently, but her body gradually relaxed under the guidance of Manyo in the sea water that was warmer than expected, and she opened her eyes carefully.

It was clear that the scene under the sea was magnificent and romantic, but after the girl's eyes wandered around, they still uncontrollably stayed on Manyo's back.

I don’t know why, but the girl has a feeling——

Manyo is actually a person who only looks good on the surface.

At his core, he must be free and uninhibited, even rebellious and unrestrained.

Whether it is from the fact that he gave up his family and wandered around the world, or that even girls have heard of "taking Wu Xiang's sword", it can be seen that the main theme of Manyo is madness, resistance, and walking on remote paths. Abandon the great road and ignore it.

Underneath his seemingly gentle and talkative appearance, he always has his own ideas.

Just like this time, Beidou clearly asked him to take back everything he found, but he chose to make his own decision, even if it put himself in a more troublesome and dangerous situation.

Probably because Manyo is not only a romantic person, but also a gentle enough person.

Wanyu took the girl swimming all the way, and touched a cave. Following the somewhat narrow corridor, he discovered that there was a cave inside——

The upper level is an open space where the girl can breathe heavily.

In the center of the open space, there is a small earth bag and a simple stone tablet with the words "Qiao Li's Tomb" engraved on it.

"..."

The girl kept taking two steps forward, and then performed a mourning ceremony according to Liyue's tradition.

"I also discovered it by accident."

Manyo followed the girl's movements and bowed slightly towards the tombstone:

"I have observed it. It is secluded here and considered safe. Sister Qiao... will rest in peace."

can you?

Yes.

People who are alive actually don’t know if it is possible, but this is the only thing that people who are alive can do.

The living must do something to keep themselves alive.

"...let's go."

"If you have time, bring Brother Zhao to have a look."

The girl and Manyo dived into the water again, but at the end of the corridor, they met a huge eyeball——

"—!"

The girl following behind reacted quickly, flipped her wrist, grabbed Wanyu's hand, and dived as fast as possible.

But the eyeball slowly moved away from the hole, and the next moment, a scarlet, sticky, soft tentacle jumped in from the opening of the corridor at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye.
