cloud tree

Live to death.

The moonlight above the cliff is beautiful, there are no dark clouds tonight, and the light directly falls from the sky and falls on Vichy. 100 years ago, the top of the cliff was bare, and there was nothing but soil. He dug a hole at the farthest edge and planted a maple poplar, which has now become a big evergreen willow.He can now lean against the tree and recall his life.

Beneath the high cliffs was a swift and deep river, and no one had ever descended to measure its depth.The river is very strange, most of the time it is hot and rolling, but occasionally it will be frozen, and it will be silent for 50 years, and it seems to be completely unaffected by the weather here.

There is unknown ancient magic here, but no one has come to spy on it for the time being.

There used to be.

"The magic pressure here is abnormal." Someone said, "There should be ancient treasures hidden under this section of the river."

"Many people think so, but going down to the bottom of the river is not easy."

"Call the water mages in half the city, freeze the river from the end of the river, blast away the obstacles in this place, and we can go down."

"There is an easier way."

"what?"

"Just push you down."

He is so cold.The weakest point at the cliff's connection strangled the beloved senior.He calculated that if he couldn't kill the senior with his own hands, then he would summon the Fire Pendant and blow away the entire cliff protrusion.

It is a happy ending for two people to embrace each other and die.But only he fell into the river, while the other died on the mountain.Vichy was born in the icy river and awakened on the wide plain.This is his starting point, which is also his end point.

Flames can devour everything. He once thought of being buried under the kiss of flames, but he was reluctant to burn down his house, and when the flames really rose, he couldn't hurt the people around him.So might as well be buried under the raging waves, and divided in the mouths of man-eating fish.That way, they couldn't find his body either.

A young traveler was not afraid of danger and wanted to go to the edge of the cliff to have a bird's-eye view of the scenery alone. However, due to the hazy night, he did not have time to see the road under his feet clearly.

People have deduced this fact from the marks on the edge of the cliff and the scratched clothes.However, relatives and friends cried bitterly for him, and after a short period of grief, all the dust fell to the ground.There is no such person in the world anymore, and his history is sealed in the archives.

That's all right?Vichy just disappear.

He measured the maximum height visible to the naked eye, and he wove an invisible wind net at that height. The height of the wind net was beyond the coverage of ancient magic. He threw a small stone and it landed firmly on the net.He is not fat, and the weight of 120 catties can still be carried.

Fall here.

He walked forward slowly and looked up at the starry sky, thinking that he was going to be blinded by the moonlight and take away his soul.This is the last time I fell off a cliff, and I experienced the helplessness of the wind blowing past my ears.He thought that even if he had to climb up again, there would be no next fall to his death.

He walked to a very high place, like a natural traveler who rarely takes a step into the air.

One foot in the air.

He's falling, but snapping his fingers.

Someone caught him just in time.It's Sue.

Su came too timely.Su pulled his falling body with one hand, and grabbed the protruding rock with the other.

"Teacher Weixi, hold on." Su pulled him and said with great difficulty.

He looked at Su in surprise.Small stones cannot bear their weight, and within a minute they will fall.The wind net also cannot carry two people.If he didn't use magic to save both himself and Su, then they would all fall.

Really fall into the river, there will be no such good luck to die.

"Feng Xing, the method of riding against the wind."

He chanted the spell.The soft wind hung from the feet, forming an encircling circle. The moment Mr. Su let go, the two were safely wrapped up and transported to the maple and poplar on the cliff.Su supported the tree trunk with his hands, panting heavily, as if he was still in shock.He was very calm, even if Su temporarily disrupted his plan, he still obtained new information.

He looked at Su and asked, "Su, why are you here?"

Su's breath gradually calmed down: "I heard that Mr. Weixi, you have been restless recently, so I want to come and see you. I am worried that something will happen to you."

"So you happened to see me in such a remote place when you went out at night?"

"I went out for a walk in the middle of the night. The moonlight is very good today. As for being so remote, it's because...it's because..." Su suddenly laughed as he spoke.

Su suppressed his smile, stared at him, and said: "Vichy died late at night today. The cause of death was that he accidentally fell off the cliff when he went out to collect wind. Three days later, people found scraps of cloth on the cliff, and the body was found within two weeks. Later, it was found in the lower reaches of the river, because it was soaked for too long and the appearance could not be seen clearly, and it was judged by the clothes that it was the real person.”

"Oh, that's right. I actually attended your memorial service a month later. Of course, Nuoning came. Your will stated that you should be cremated, but Versailles insisted that you be buried. For this matter, Nuoning even Argued with Versailles for a long time."

"But don't worry, the gaffe develops as you want. Vichy was cremated in the end, erasing all possibility of overturning the case."

Su's smile was still as bright as when he first saw him, but he suddenly felt very cold in his heart.

He had investigated Su, and the file was perfect and impeccable.Only the ink on the paper made him suspicious. The ink was very new, as if it was written not long ago, as if it was written when Su came to the imperial city.It takes a seasoned person to forge a perfect file.If Su is looking for artificial fakes, there will be traces to check.But he didn't find it.

Judging from Su's ability, Su must have received long-term training, a huge and detailed instillation of knowledge.Su will have a teacher, that teacher is knowledgeable and good at disguising, like a nocturnal person.

nocturnal people.

He lowered his voice and asked, "Who are you?"

"Why worry, Teacher Weixi." Su did not answer his question directly, but said with a smile: "The story is not finished yet, you should listen patiently."

"One week after the funeral, Lester received the news of Nuoning's death. As Nuoning thought, Lester liked Vichy very much, and he was crazy about it. Lester attacked the human world for Vichy. This war It's not a coincidence, everything is controllable. A few days before Vichy's death, he went to the Demon Realm."

"He spoke suggestive language to the Demon King. For example, he hinted that after he returned to Night Walk, the leader of Night Walk, Nuoning, might kill him. He said that if he survived, he wanted to settle in the northern city of Arya. Lester Bewitched by him, it was Aryan who attacked the human world. But before that, Aryan had already deployed a large number of troops, and the two sides were at a stalemate."

"At this time, Nuoning left the imperial city and went to Aryan. Everything went smoothly. Nuoning and Leicester fought, and Nuoning died in battle, directly at the hands of Leicester, while Rice Te was also seriously injured and fell into a coma. Before he died, Nuoning told Lester who Vichy was, and asked Lester to leave the human world forever. After Lester woke up, he did not attack the human world again, and the curse of Yexing was broken. "

That was his whole plan.

He used Leicester in exchange for peace to break the curse, so that he could die gracefully.Except for Leicester, he can be worthy under the nine springs.

"That's good, isn't it? The night walker will never be cursed to die again. I saved Camilla, I saved Mion, and if I guessed right, I saved you too, twice."

He didn't tell anyone about this plan, and it just rotted with the loess when it was completed.Su's story is vividly told, what has happened and what will happen.

Sue knew him too much, his favorite name, his favorite color, his favorite things, his real name, his actions, his friends, and—

his future.

He doesn't believe in fate, he doesn't believe in prophecy.But he trusts his own near-impossible judgment.Su came from the future, another time and space, the time and space where he had completed his plan and died smoothly.Su is his student.

Sue's real name was, he said, "Aaron."

Su looked at him, the moonlight in his hand gradually condensed, the weapon of Ye Xing's past presidents.Su raised the condensed long sword and faced the moon: "Teacher, you shouldn't bring back the black book. The first page of the book tells us that when the sun and the moon are in the same light, we can travel through time and space. On the day of the lunar eclipse, combine the weapons of the day and the night, combine the light of the sun and the light of the moon, and the Ring of Time will appear."

Aaron has a shiny round ring on his right index finger.

Aaron came to this time and space through the ring of time flow, trying to change his fate.Aaron's thoughts are the same as before. Aaron doesn't care if he reverses time and space for the person he likes, even if it affects the fate of other people.

Aaron doesn't even care if he cares.

Aaron said to him: "I just want to save the person I like, and I can't care so much about other people. Teacher, can you understand my mood?"

He can, but how can he say he can?

"Go back to the time and space where you are, and don't interfere with the affairs here." His eyes suddenly turned cold, trying to shake Aaron's decision: "Otherwise I will kill myself."

He threatened Aaron with himself as a bargaining chip. Aaron looked at him with a lonely look in his eyes: "You still think about us so much, but you have no way out."

"what?"

"Before I went out, I submitted articles to various newspapers. I told them that Nuoning and Vichy were the same person. Although I only wrote one sentence, you know the reporter's business gossip ability. Even if some newspapers suppressed the report , there will always be some who will report the news.”

His defense seems solid, and the weakest point is all too obvious.And Aaron only needs one word, and all his plans collapse.

Within three days, everyone will know that Weixi and Nuoning are alone, and in three days, Leicester should also know.Lester would kill him out of anger?No, Lestat wasn't going to kill him, never.Even Lester won't attack the human world as planned because Vichy is still alive.

Aaron is forcing him to kill Lester.Now only if he kills Lester, the curse of Night Walk can be broken.

He looked at Aaron angrily, the person who ruined all his plans happened to be his student.Aaron is very calm, it seems that he inherited it.He pushed Aaron away and walked on.He must now return to Nightwalk to face his alter ego exposed to the public.
