Her body was moving quickly, and after a moment of weightlessness, she crashed into the man's arms again. The whole world was like a broken lake, with everyone's faces spreading out in the ripples.

Is that a monster? Or a ghost?

She didn't know, nor did she want to know. She should be thankful that her intuition was right. Those guys were not her family or her friends at all.

This should be a very strange and terrifying scene, but Yun Nian was not afraid at all. The body holding her was so warm and strong, and it brought a sense of security.

Her legs could not touch the ground, and she was leaning against the man with dark green eyes in a posture that was a little too intimate.

But she didn't feel uncomfortable, as if she knew clearly that the other party would not hurt her.

"who are you?"

She opened her mouth, and the whistling sound of the wind blew past both of their ears so madly that she could hardly hear her own voice.

But the other person's voice was so gentle and firm, as if no matter what Yun Nian said, he would definitely use all his strength to answer.

"Wei Qingjue, my name is Wei Qingjue, or you can call me another name, Alfalfa."

It was a low, slightly hoarse voice. If Yun Nian had been more careful at this moment, she would have noticed that the hand holding her was trembling a little, and the sound coming from her throat sounded like she hadn't spoken for a long time.

"My name is Yun Nian."

"I know...I've always known."

why would you say so?

Before Yun Nian could ask, he was startled by the sudden scene in front of him.

The huge lake and black water seemed to be attracting them all.

Wei Qingjue held the long sword in his hand and stood on an exposed stone with her.

Black fog lingered around the two people. The thick fog made the rest of the scenery disappear.

"This is where?"

With a surprised voice, Yun Nian asked,

His chest trembled slightly, and Wei Qingjue looked down at the girl in his arms, his eyes filled with both relief and reluctance.

"I do not know."

He paused for a moment, and seeing Yun Nian pursed his lips, he hesitantly stated his inference.

"Maybe... I mean maybe, we are in the interweaving of millions of worlds."

Although he had clearly said this, Yun Nian still felt that this guy was just being pretentious. What world? What interweaving? Wasn't there a better explanation?

But before Wei Qingjue could explain, a huge hole suddenly appeared on the dark lake surface, swallowing the two of them in.

Blackness instantly covered Yun Nian's eyes and she lost consciousness.

……

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The child in front of him looked at him warily. His eyes were clearly black, but Yun Nian inexplicably felt that he was very similar to the man named "Wei Qingjue".

"This is where?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, she realized something was wrong. The child looked confused and obviously didn't understand, but she could understand the meaning of the child's words.

"Was he thrown into a strange place?"

She felt helpless. When she looked up, she saw the blood moon hanging high in the sky. It was so strange that the moon was red.

Wait, this place?

The stone wall bulges upward and shrinks, revealing a hole at the top that is just big enough to accommodate the moon.

"Are we in a well?"

As soon as she asked this question, she realized that the child in front of her had wounds all over his body. Some were from being whipped, and some were from being scratched by sharp stones. There was almost no intact skin on his body.

Who would do such a cruel thing to a child?

Yun Nian was furious. She stood up and ignored the man's struggle. Since the child didn't have much strength anyway, she lifted him up and put him aside.

"You actually threw the child down. This is an unforgivable crime!"

She struggled to hold onto the slippery stone wall, but always slipped back down after climbing halfway up. Her delicate body was scratched with scars, and bright red blood dripped onto the ground and onto the child's face.

"Hey, I just don't believe that this broken well can still stump me!"

The child watched all this in silence, watching her struggle to climb out of the well, and then disappear. There was no sign of her for a long, long time.

"No one will save me."

He hugged his arms and lowered his head, but was hit on the head by a hard object.

"Hey! You, come in, I'll pull you out, be careful."

Although he couldn't understand what was being said, the meaning of the bucket being put down was very clear. He stepped in and his body gradually rose.

When he finally came out, he stumbled to the ground and saw the girl giving him a soft smile.

"great!"

Looking down, the pair of soft hands were covered with redness and swelling. The hemp rope was so rough that it made her hands look horrible.

"Okay, I'm going to look for him. You better hide well. If I find him, I'll take you with me. He's very powerful. By the way, my name is Yun Nian. What's your name?"

The girl pointed at herself, then at the child, and repeated it several times before he seemed to understand.

He spoke haltingly, as if he had never introduced himself to anyone before.

"Alfalfa... My name is Alfalfa!"

The picture broke in an instant, and the last thing that remained in his eyes was the girl's surprised image. She stretched out her hand as if she wanted to grab him, but failed.

……

Clover? He's Clover?

Yun Nian woke up from the ruined temple, rubbing his head. The last moment he remembered was the child's courageous eyes.

"Cough cough!"

The dust in the ruined temple was so thick that she coughed a few times and kicked forward unconsciously, but she touched a body.

"Wha...what?"

She was startled and looked over carefully. She didn't know whether the person lying in the middle of the ruined temple was dead or alive. The clothes he was wearing looked quite luxurious.

"Hey! Are you okay?"

She pushed gently, but the man still didn't move. Yun Nian then extended her index finger and probed the tip of his nose.

The faint, almost disappearing breath proved that the man on the ground was not dead yet.

"So he's still alive..."

But his body was so hot that Yun Nian almost jumped up when he accidentally touched it.

"With his eyes covered, is he... blind?"

There were cuts on his face, so his original appearance could not be seen.

Yun Nian wanted to find Wei Qingjue, but her mind told her that she couldn't waste time on someone who was about to die. She had to return to her own world as soon as possible.

However, this person is not dead yet, and maybe he can still be saved. If she just leaves him alone, she will feel sad.

There was nothing in the dilapidated temple. Even the statues had lost their original luster and became dull, revealing a black base.

"What should I do if I have a fever? I think I should use a silk handkerchief soaked in cold water..."

There is no silk handkerchief.

Yun Nian looked down at her clothes. The red wedding dress was particularly eye-catching in the dilapidated temple. Although it was a little gray now,

She tore off a piece of her sleeve and looked around. Fortunately, there was a jar next to the statue of the god in the ruined temple, right next to the broken roof.

Maybe when it was still popular, people nearby deliberately moved here to collect rainwater.

The water in the jar was not clear, but it was not turbid either. However, Yun Nian could no longer care about anything else.

She put the strip of cloth into the water, and red blood gushed out from the wound on her hand. Strands of red blood swayed slightly in the water.

"Hey!"

She twisted it hard and felt pain in her palm, but she didn't notice it. When she put the wet handkerchief on the blind man's forehead, she saw the deep wound on her palm, which ran straight across, as if it had been there for a long time.

She didn't seem to remember when she got hurt, but now was not the time to think about it. She knelt beside the man and clasped her hands together.

"I'm sorry, I have something else to do, and I don't know any medical skills. You just hold on for a while. If I find Wei Qingjue or a doctor later, I will come back to save you."

The girl got up from the ground, took one last look at the man, and then walked out without hesitation, falling into deeper and deeper darkness.

The man who had a fever tore off the cloth on his eyes, revealing a pair of dull, dark green eyes. There was a relieved smile on the corner of his mouth, which disappeared with the collapse of the ruined temple.
