Genshin Impact: Great, you guys still remember

What exactly is Xiaoyao?

From the moment he transformed, Liu Yun had been searching for the answer.

Birds in the mountains?

No, you can't cross these mountains in your lifetime.

It's not considered free and easy.

Drifting leaves?

That's even more impossible. If there's no wind, it will just fall to the ground, break into mud and turn into dust.

It's not considered free and easy.

So what exactly is Xiaoyao?

She had just become a fairy.

Feeling the wind blowing,

He raised his hands and clasped them together to try to stop him.

The wind slipped away from her fingertips.

Same as the wind,

The same is true for the clouds in the sky.

This became her creed.

She began to chase the footsteps of the wind and search for the direction of the clouds.

Similarly, she still persisted in looking for that possibility:

The wind stopped and the clouds stopped.

This was also a promise she made with her apprentice a long time ago.

"If so, please come and find me. If it is true, why not let me stay here?"

...

Liu Yun gradually understood:

"Perhaps that boy had already planned something bad to me at that time."

...

Late at night, the rain outside the window has stopped.

The bright moonlight shone on the bed, making her unable to sleep.

Well, she had to admit it.

The reason why she couldn't sleep was someone else's fault, not the moon's.

The moment he turned and left, closing the door,

Liu Yun's heart was in a mess.

Regret?

Do not,

She shook her head,

I don't regret it either.

Even if she knew about this scene, she would still say:

"Let's calm down for a while..."

It's not an excuse, nor is it a roundabout way of refusing.

She really needs some time to calm down.

It's not just a relationship problem with the apprentice.

And - on the path of cultivation, she suddenly felt a little confused.

She suddenly didn't understand the meaning of the word "free and easy".

...

But let's put other things aside for now -

Liuyun pricked up his ears quietly, a little nervous.

There is no sound outside, what is he doing?

Could it be that what I said was too harsh and he was a little upset for a moment?

boom,

This is the sound of the door closing.

He went out? How could he go out? Outside...

Liu Yun's heart trembled, and he immediately wanted to get out of bed and chase after him.

But... as soon as she moved, she suddenly realized——

I was the one who said, "Calm down for a while."

What's the point of running away?

After a while of thinking,

With a sigh, she lay back down.

He won't run around, he knows that as a teacher... I will be worried, he promised me...

The idea is very good, and I have successfully convinced myself.

But she still couldn't sleep.

His eyes were fixed on the wooden ceiling.

Keep your ears perked up, always paying attention to any sounds in the house.

...

I do not know how long it has been,

Until the moon and the sun rotate,

When the morning sun shines into the room,

Then the sound came.

...

"Master Liuyun, I'm back!"

...

what,

Liu Yun never thought that she would feel so relieved because of a single sentence.

Like a rope tied to her throat and a boulder being cut,

She took a deep breath of fresh air.

Panting silently, curled up in the quilt,

Just like before, he was curled up like a snail on the bed, in the corner against the wall.

Soon, other voices followed.

First there was the sound of the door opening.

It seems that he started calling when he was still some distance away from the house.

He was not depressed about what happened last night.

Liu Yun breathed a sigh of relief again.

Then there were many voices.

There are sounds of things being put away, cabinets being opened, doors being closed and shut...

But Liu Yun still captured what he wanted from it——

His footsteps.

Liuyun closed his eyes,

He moved from one end of the room to the other, and from one end to the other,

He was walking around the room.

The footsteps were brisk and steady.

Liu Yun was completely relieved. She could hear——

He's still here, he's still healthy, he hasn't left me yet...

...

She knew him well enough to know that she could tell his current state from the sound of his footsteps alone.

...

The footsteps stopped.

She pricked up her ears again.

A strange sound came.

Liu Yun looked puzzled.

Is that the sound of pots and pans?

Can he cook?

The sound lasted for about half an hour.

Then it disappeared,

Is the food ready?

Liu Yun guessed secretly while continuing to listen...

The next sound was the door closing.

Why did he go out again?

Liu Yun frowned.

But with this example, she felt more at ease this time.

Wait patiently...

...

a long time...

There was a sound of pushing the door.

Then there was the sound of pots and pans again.

Not only the sound, but also the nostrils at the same time as the ears,

That is the aroma of fish soup,

The sound of footsteps -

Well,

Liu Yun shrank his neck and quickly lay back on the bed.

Soon, a voice came from outside the door:

"I have already prepared the medicine...

And fish soup...

I put these at the door...

I'll come back later in the evening..."

It seemed that he had not finished speaking. After the voice stopped, there was no sound of footsteps.

He must have been standing at the door...

He's not going to push the door open...

Liu Yun closed his eyes, turned his back to the door, and sweat appeared on his forehead.

She was a little nervous...

Besides being nervous, she seemed to be a little... looking forward to it?

I haven't seen my apprentice for a long time.

Liu Yun actually missed him a little.

She fluttered her eyelashes:

Come in if you want, I won’t blame you.

...

Finally, footsteps sounded, and he left...

...

Liuyun's trembling eyelashes slowly opened,

There was a hint of loss in his eyes.

Is he still gone...

...

The sound of the door opening and closing was heard,

...

He finally left...

...

Liu Yun suddenly lost her strength. She sat up, hugged her legs with her arms, and rested her head on her knees.

Staring blankly at the door,

...

She suddenly sneered, as if she was laughing at herself.

Happy?

This immortal calls himself the free and easy immortal,

In the end, you don’t even dare to leave your small room?

...

The aroma of fish soup drifted into her nose through the crack in the door.

It made her dull expression move.

The footsteps are gone, but the aroma of fish soup remains...

Whatever, it is also his painstaking effort, which cannot be wasted.

Although holding such an idea,

But Liu Yun still couldn't muster the slightest strength.

I got out of bed softly and dragged my legs to the door.

I opened the door feebly...

Gently lift your eyelids.

next moment,

She just stayed there like a stuck robot.

It was a wreath.

...

Dozens of similar yet different ones are still treasured in her treasure bag.

...

Tears mixed with fish soup were drunk into the stomach,

Liu Yun didn't feel the slightest bitterness.

I received your friendship.

Very sweet, very real, very delicious.

As for the bowl of medicine...

It was so bitter that I decided not to drink it. I couldn’t even taste the fish soup.

...

He placed the medicine on the table unopened and put the empty bowl back in the kitchen.

Liu Yun lay back on the bed.

Fish soup not only eliminates physical hunger,

It made her heart fuller.

For the first time, she truly and tangibly felt the power of love.

Perhaps there was love surrounding her before,

But this time, after all the setbacks and twists and turns,

It is particularly obvious.

...

She sat cross-legged on the bed, looking out the window at the scenery outside.

This was the first time she focused on the scenery outside the window after being injured.

That is a beautiful mountain.

Although it is located at the foot of the mountain, the scenery of the middle and top of the mountain cannot be seen clearly.

But just based on the beauty of the foot of the mountain,

Liuyun can imagine the whole picture of this mountain.

This is a very beautiful fairy mountain.

She lost herself in thought as she read:

"If there is a chance, I will live up there with him..."

Once you start imagining, you can never stop.

"In my spare time, we can watch the moon and chat together, and I can also teach him about mechanical tricks and make a work together.

You can also study recipes together and make a dish that both of you like.

He has so many ideas, I will research and realize them bit by bit..."

As I was talking, it seemed as if this scene appeared before my eyes.

A happy smile appeared on her lips:

"It would be nice to live my whole life in the mountains..."

...

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, they stopped abruptly, and the smile froze on the corner of his mouth.

She looked at her palm in disbelief:

"Did I say those words just now?"

...

"Yes,"

A voice sounded. It was her voice, but she was unfamiliar with it.

...

"But I am a free and unrestrained immortal. How could I have such an unorthodox idea?"

She shook her head, still in disbelief.

...

"Xiaoyao? Are you sure you understand Xiaoyao?"

There was a hint of disdain in his voice.

...

"'Wandering freely in the mountains and rivers, and being free in the human world', how could this immortal not know?"

Liu Yun retorted,

...

"Are you sure you understand this sentence?"

The voice continued,

...

"How could this immortal not understand? It is nothing more than being free and unrestrained in the world, and being at ease with one's own form and intention. In other words, how can the wind stop? How can the clouds stop? Clouds and wind are both symbols of freedom."

...

"Are you sure there are no stopping clouds and no stopping wind?"

The voice then asked,

...

"No,"

Liu Yun's answer this time was decisive and resolute.

She traveled for hundreds of years, and searched for hundreds of years.

She knew better than anyone whether there was any.

...

"you sure?"

...

"Sure!"

...

"What if I said yes?"

...

"How is it possible? This immortal is you, and you are this immortal. What this immortal sees is what you see. How could you possibly have that?"

...

"Hey--"

The voice just sighed.

With a sigh, Liu Yun subconsciously moved his feet, turned over and got out of bed, and walked to a corner of the room.

She looked up suddenly.

It was a mirror—her face was reflected in it,

It's her, and it's not her.

She in the mirror spoke slowly, her eyes firm and gentle:

“You’re a cloud too, aren’t you?

Ask yourself, have you really—stopped?”

...

Liu Yun felt as if his brain suddenly exploded.

Countless memories are flying in my mind——

...

"This cave has signs of being lived in, so whatever... I can't find any other caves, so I'll just make do with this for one night."

...

"Are you going to be the Monkey King who protects 'Tang Sanzang'?"

...

"Master, I need to create some tricks for him to protect himself."

...

"As a teacher, I have to find a base for him."

...

'That kid is having a nightmare again, I have to hurry up...'

...

"Before I died, I was able to take you guys away. This immortal, the 'Sun Dasheng', has not failed in his duty."

...

"It's a pity...I haven't been able to say goodbye to you yet."

...

All thoughts and memories are the most profound memories.

Except for the last few decades,

I don't even have any memory of living alone for the past few hundred years...

...

In an instant,

The clouds stop, the wind stops——

...

It was as if a gust of wind blew by, and all the memories retracted into my mind.

Liu Yun came back to her senses. She looked at the figure in the mirror that was exactly the same as herself.

At first I was a little dazed.

After the distraction, there was a sudden enlightenment.

She stood there for a long time, and finally she showed no expression.

Only murmured in his mouth:

"It turns out that I have already been one."

After saying this, she seemed to have lifted the spell that had frozen her body. She felt relaxed and a helpless smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth:

She had never known herself so well:

"It's been so long without me noticing.

I had already stopped.

You are so important to me.

I had already—"

Liu Yun looked up at herself in the mirror. She was very determined.

Each word was pronounced with such intensity that it seemed as if it would be engraved in my heart:

"I'm in love with you."

...

The wind suddenly appeared again.

But this time——the wind came from her heart,

Love blows with the wind.
