In the next few days, Luo Xingyi's schedule was almost full, from morning to night, he couldn't squeeze any spare time.

For the first three days, he would drive to the cemetery on the west hill every day, and spend most of the day in front of his parents' tombstone, describing his life after waking up in detail.

Qu Lin would sometimes come to accompany him, so there was no need to say anything. After paying homage to the elders who had been buried here, he and Luo Xingyi, under Wang Shu's command, dug the soil and planted flowers, and organized the cemetery into a place Mrs. Luo would meet. I like it.When the sun sets, the two of them go down together to see how Xu Yan in the villa is doing today.

Later, because the presumed dead heir reappeared, Luo Xingyi needed to confirm the inheritance and go through the formalities for the property of the Luo family that had not yet been brought into the treasury.At the same time, after asking Luo Xingyi for his opinion, Ji Shuyao also handed over the identity of Xu Yan's guardian to him.

The property of the three elders is neither too much nor too little, and there are several real estates alone.

The long-held property has regained its owner, and many things have disappeared.Luo Xingyi never realized that having more property would bring such a heavy burden, but he not only gritted his teeth and took care of everything, but also accepted Ji Shuyao's request to train a special army according to the tradition of the "Moon Palace" team. Instructor positions.

He neither wanted to rest nor dared to give himself time to rest.

In such a busy day with no time left for himself to cry and lick his wounds, Luo Xingyi bid farewell to those who had already left the curtain: deceased parents, former teammates whose life and death were unknown, and the truth about the cruel experiment of "Moon Palace" .All the past that has passed for a long, long time in reality is buried in the garden on the west hill.

Planted a flower.

In any case, people always have to look forward, because life is still going on.How can a person who is always obsessed with the past go far?

-

A week later, a small white building located in a high-end residential area in the east of the city was completely remodeled and remodeled, welcoming its new owner.

After a whole week of busy work, Luo Xingyi, who was spinning like a spinning top, finally took a break. He declined Ji Shuyao and Dai You's suggestion that he and Qu Lin continue to live in the palace, and moved into the apartment left by his parents. in the house.

At this point, Luo Xingyi finally ended the overwhelm and turmoil when he first arrived in Taoyuan, ended his wandering days, and returned to his "home".This kind of down-to-earth peace of mind and comfort cannot be provided by any level of hotel.

It just gave him a little headache.

——Qu Lin, who was suddenly invincible and polite, refused to move into the house to live with him, preferring to live in a hotel eight hundred streets away.

Luo Xingyi's invitation was rejected twice, so he probably understood what Qu Lin was thinking.Before, they could share the same room, or even share the same bed under special circumstances, because there were only hotels and hotels, temporary accommodation; but here, the meaning of "home" to Luo Xingyi, he was not willing to casually Enter the room.

After all, they have not reached a relationship where they can live together, and they are not pure friends.Qu Lin didn't want to play irresponsible ambiguity with him, since he couldn't define where the "line" was, he simply backed away.

After understanding this problem, Luo Xingyi realized that it was time to give an explanation for something interrupted by successive bad news.

Once he had this idea, the next afternoon, on October [-]th, he found a random reason to invite Qu Lin out, wanting to have dinner together, and take a look at the life in the Holy City by the way.

I am ashamed to say that the two of them have lived in Taoyuan for a week, but now they are free. They want to see the local customs and customs here, and understand the situation of Taoyuan in depth.

Qu Lin was fine, he went out a lot, and Luo Xingyi was busy dealing with funeral affairs, and his mind was not on the outside world, so he hadn't paid close attention to the city yet.Therefore, throughout the afternoon, he was a person with a special purpose, but he spent more time shopping than Qu Lin.

As the political, cultural and economic center of Taoyuan, the urban planning of the holy city is quite clear.The central area of ​​the city is an ancient forest of Grace, and in the center there is a huge tree house built by trees called "ancestor tree".The branches and leaves are luxuriant, towering and covering the sun, like a god sheltering its people.

The squares and churches for religious sacrifices and worship around it are basically separated from the residential areas and commercial areas without disturbing each other.Because the city area is not large and the population is small, it seems to be orderly, comfortable and tidy everywhere.

Perhaps because of their advocacy of their unique "Natural People" religion, the architectural styles of the three cities in Taoyuan are all very retro, with a bit of ancient country customs in a peaceful corner, which is quite different from the outside world.

There is no reinforced concrete shape here, and the houses are mostly single-family small buildings with half-open windows and copied religious scriptures hanging from the eaves, layered on top of each other like scrolls that have been sun-dried.

The streets are full of luxuriant plants and flowers, and the road is fragrant and fragrant.The clear water flows through the city, and a wooden arch bridge is built on the small river. Young girls wearing jingle silver ornaments walk across the bridge talking and laughing, taking pictures in the water.

After the night fell, the streets of the commercial district in the north of the city were not deserted at all, and it was a lively time.

There are many tourists, and the street lights are bright.

Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin had dinner at a restaurant strongly recommended by Dai You. Seeing that it was still early, they walked side by side on the pedestrian street for sightseeing.

The atmosphere along the road is warm, and there are constant laughter and laughter. It is hard not to be infected by this kind of happiness when you are in it.Looking at it all the way, Luo Xingyi's cloudy mood has relaxed a lot in the past few days, and he gradually revealed his usual smile.

Because the two of them are so outstanding in appearance and wear similar styles of clothes, whenever there is any interaction such as handing water and talking, they will frequently receive praise from passers-by.

The residents of the holy city didn't know whether they recognized Qu Lin or didn't recognize him at all. They didn't seem to be very afraid of him. There was surprise in their quietly sized eyes, but there was no malice or fear in them.

There were even a few who were secretly excited with green eyes, as if they didn't meet the chief wanted criminal on the road, but met idols shopping.

Halfway through, a particularly brave girl rushed forward and begged for the social accounts of the two, but because her words and deeds were too embarrassing, she was forcibly hacked away by her friends.

When she was taken away, she was unwilling, she was resentful, and she couldn't calm down: "Let me go! A woman who is a double-wanted woman will never admit defeat!"

Although Luo Xingyi wasn't sure if the girl's slang words meant what he understood, but he was amused by her resolute and unyielding expression. He took a sip of lemonade, smiled and said to Qu Lin: "Qu Lin, I I found that you seem to be very popular with the people of Taoyuan, from Mr. Xia to Miss Dai to ordinary people... You want to take it all?"

"However, it's good." He shook the lemonade in his hand, and the ice cubes slammed into the quilt. "I like to see that everyone likes you. It shows that the people have a high level of appreciation and are very discerning."

After hearing this, Qu Lin didn't answer, Wang Shu clapped mechanically in his pocket: Mr. Luo played well this time.According to the analysis of Mr. Qu's heartbeat, after three seconds he will speak——

Sure enough, three seconds later Qu Lin said, "I'm not as good as you think."

Luo Xingyi raised his hand, threw the empty drink cup into the trash can, shook his index finger, and smiled: "Be confident, Mr. Lin, you are the best in the world!"

There are two pedestrian streets, and the two unknowingly walked through one, and when they turned to the other street, they happened to meet a song and dance drama that was being performed along the street.

The scale of the crew was small, and the actors in costumes sang and danced all the way. Not only was it not simple, but it was also very lively.It seemed that some exciting episode was being played, and the crowd cheered one after another, and bought a lot of flowers and threw them over.

Perhaps because they have long been accustomed to such performances, the tourists on the road did not go up and surround the entire performance team, but instead took the initiative to make way for them to make the performance go more smoothly.

"It's coming, it's my favorite scene!"

"I heard that there seems to be an adaptation of today's show? The devil seems to have changed people."

"Really! Then I'm looking forward to it!"

There was a lot of discussion around, Luo Xingyi was fresh for a while, and he also pulled Qu Lin to stop and watch for a while, and found that the content of this song and dance drama was actually very interesting.

There are three protagonists in the story, one is the flower god Mingen wearing a wreath and a pink dress, the other is an ordinary person with no name and ragged clothes, and the third is the beautiful demon king Sunset with black robe and silver hair.

The three sang and danced, telling a story about the battle between the flower god Ming En and the demon king Sunset.

In the libretto of the Flower God, the demon king Sunset was deprived of his position by the God of Nature and demoted to the mortal world because he was eager for quick success and broke the laws of nature.Not only does he not want to repent, but he even intensifies the slaughter of human beings to form his own army of dead bodies. This is an unforgivable crime.

However, the devil sneered again and again, saying that the gods don't think about making progress, and that all living beings don't know what is good or bad. Since they have eternal life and strength, what does it matter if they are human or not?

The flower god immediately reprimanded the demon king for her nonsense, and cast a spell to drive her away, "Everywhere you go is dead, and everyone you love is dead. What you want is not a new world, but a crowned king! Sunset, Get off my land!"

The flower god's mana was obviously higher than that of the demon king. During a fast-paced dance, the demon king was beaten and retreated steadily.Before she escaped, like every standard villain, she uttered a cruel sentence: "I am no longer a god, and I am parasitic in every ulterior corner of people's hearts. If mortals are not extinct, I will not be extinct! If I will Come back, all living beings must call me back!"

"Before that day, can your natural god pass through this world?"

It may be due to different experiences, when other people cheered for the victory of Flower God, Luo Xingyi was stunned for a while, and vaguely felt that this line meant something.

This story must be the ideology implanted by Taoyuan's "Natural Congregation", which is caught off guard. It is indisputable, and the implication is very clear-the God of Flowers represents the flower of God's grace, and the name of the villain Sunset is so obvious, except for "Sunset" Who else can the virus have?And the flower god defeated the demon king, saying that Taoyuan is not infected by the zombie virus. As long as everyone believes in the natural god, their homes will be safe.

It looks like there is nothing wrong with it.

But if this is just a fabricated common legend, why not follow the routine and set the setting sun as a facial makeup clown to make everyone feel disgusted?On the contrary, the story also added the setting and lines of falling into the devil to it, as if knowing that the "sunset" was a mutation of the original experimental solution...

The performing troupe went away, disappeared at the end of the street amidst the flying flowers, and their performance continued.

Just as Luo Xingyi wanted to tell Qu Lin about the content of this story, he heard someone suddenly shout: "May the God of Nature bless you and me!"

At eight o'clock in the evening, a distant bell rang.

Then, like ripples, the voices of people responded: "May the God of Nature bless you and me."

Their voices are not loud, but they are devout from the heart.

"May the God of Nature bless you and me."

At this moment, everyone put down what they were doing, looked in the direction of the bell, straightened their clothes, and gathered together.

At first, only a few believers spoke, but soon the entire pedestrian street responded, endlessly.

Wave after wave of sound.

"What's going on here……"

The street began to be crowded, and the pedestrians on the road rushed towards one place spontaneously. Luo Xingyi stood in the crowded crowd and walked two steps, and quickly stretched out his hand to pull Qu Lin.

Rushing shoulder to shoulder, cloth rubbing against each other, Qu Lin firmly held his outstretched hand, blocked the crowded crowd with his overwhelming height, pulled Luo Xingyi in front of him, and led him out across the crowd, "Don't talk!" , go out first."

The two walked a few steps, the road was not good, it was too crowded, Luo Xingyi was stuck on Qu Lin's body.He heard his beating heartbeat, which was very clear amidst the noisy voices.

Luo Xingyi suddenly had an illiterate illusion of "although there are tens of thousands of people, I will go".

Everyone went to the open space in the middle of the street, but Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin went against it, like fish swimming against the current, and jumped ashore.

Leaving the crowded pedestrian street.

The sound of the eight o'clock bell sounded like a rallying call, and the business district was instantly emptied of people, turning the place across the street into another deserted world.

After coming out of the crowd, Luo Xingyi breathed a sigh of relief: "I really am a person without faith. What kind of religious gathering scene is this?"

"On the ninth day of every month, they have regular pilgrimage activities, which just happened to happen," Qu Lin explained.

"Our luck is not bad." Luo Xingyi said, not forgetting what he wanted to say before, "Did you watch the song and dance drama just now? Qu Lin? It feels like the screenwriter... there should be something, I can find a time Check him out."

Qu Lin said, "What message do you suspect he is conveying through this performance?"

Luo Xingyi nodded, and pushed the non-existent glasses on the bridge of his nose with his index finger: "Icanbreathtrouble..."

The Taoyuan road pattern is not complicated, square and square, the two of them walked straight through an alley while talking, and came to a wooden bridge over the water.

At this time, the night was dark, and the wooden bridge was very quiet, no one was passing through.The feeling of transitioning from the commercial square to here is like the quiet night sky after a gorgeous fireworks display.

All of a sudden, I could even hear my breathing clearly.

In the peaceful environment, Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin stopped talking at the same time, and glanced at each other with understanding.

Then Qu Lin took the lead and stepped onto the wooden bridge.

Luo Xingyi followed behind him, feeling a thousand words surging in his heart at this moment, but he was just like a mute, unable to say anything.I was apprehensive and anxious, my heart was about to jump in my ears, and my arms started to go numb.

When he was about to walk down the wooden bridge, Luo Xingyi thought: It's time to give an explanation, this is the time, now.

At the moment when he made up his mind, he suddenly calmed down.He stopped and said aloud, "Qu Lin, I know what you mean."

Qu Lin's footsteps stopped.

Luo Xingyi stood on the bridge, and the streetlights stretched his shadow very long.But Qu Lin turned his back to him, stopped and didn't look back.

Luo Xingyi heard a heartbeat, maybe it was his, maybe it was Qu Lin's, but he knew that his thinking was very clear, more sober than ever: "I think you have thought about it for a long time before confirming this relationship." , In the end, I was still chosen. I am very grateful and feel very honored. I am indeed very slow, and I did not discover this earlier, but now, it should not be too late, and I also want to tell you my thoughts... ..."

Qu Lin, whose heart was beating wildly from the moment Luo Xingyi spoke, calmed down after hearing this sentence.

he knows.

But has he really made a decision he won't regret?

Wangshu, who didn't know what he had heard, didn't dare to say anything, but the radiation of its high-speed operating body affected the lighting street lamps, making the voltage of the street lamps unstable.

In the flickering lights, Qu Lin turned around and looked up at Luo Xingyi: "Perhaps you should think about it carefully, and don't tell me right now—don't make any decisions lightly. Luo Xingyi, I Looking forward to an answer, but I'm not expecting a hotheaded answer."

"I know." Luo Xingyi laughed, looking at Qu Lin with soft and clear eyes, looking at his face that was always serious and not joking, "I know. I mean, I also hope that I After careful consideration, I will answer your seriousness. I will be responsible to you, to me, and to our future. Because what I am looking for is not a relationship that just breaks up."

The author has something to say

It's impossible not to follow the plot, I can't help it, the love line is still talking about it, don't worry.

Let me say something extra, these two people, this kind of cautious attitude is basically aimed at getting married and staying together for the rest of their lives, do you understand what I mean?
