A spring has come, and a winter has passed.Time passed slowly in the cycle of four seasons... Liyue was also changing rapidly in the passage of time.

As for Jiahe, she also grew up a lot... Then, because of her age, she withdrew from the Qianyan Army.I also found that there were silver threads in her originally pitch-black hair, and wrinkles appeared on her smooth skin... Human beings always change very quickly under the scouring of time.

Be it mind or body.Time is engulfing, and everything is moving towards the end of life.

She became more and more calm, and began to learn how to taste tea, listen to operas, and even sing with her own voice when she was interested.Also started to like children?Anyway, many newborn children in Liyue Port like to come to her house to play, they are a lively group.

An innocent and soft child, just like the former Jiahe.It's just that there is only one Jiahe, the human child I care about, and there is only one.

So I always look at them quietly from a distance, maybe the roof, maybe the treetops, maybe the corner of the corridor.Looking at Jiahe, surrounded by children, showing a kind smile.

I know, even though she is old, she can sense my presence.Through the breath, through the imprint of me that was imprinted on the back of her neck when she was very young.

She has become so fragile, and I feel a little scared in my fragile heart... If I get too close, will I hurt her?

This problem ended in one afternoon, she was lying alone on the deck chair under the tree in the backyard, called me out, and said that she hoped that I would accompany her to bask in the sun.

"It's a pity, I didn't have the chance to see Chong Xiao when you grew up." It was a sunny afternoon, and the wind was gentle.Warm, blowing over her and blowing over me.

She lay on a chair basking in the sun, squinting her eyes and said softly.

I was sitting next to her, holding a glass of mint water in my hand, the ice in it was added by Gan Yu who passed by - but Jiahe couldn't drink it, although the weather was very hot, but she was old after all, it was too cold Or other foods that are too spicy and stimulating are no longer suitable for her.

I remember worrying not so long ago that she was going to be cheated by other boys, but then she was so old that she couldn't move.

What I was worried about didn't happen. Apart from work and me, Jiahe saw no one else at all.She has no plans to start a family with anyone, nor does she have any special desire for an heir. Until now, she is still single.

To ask is to be free from worldly desires.

The continuous sound of cicadas in summer... I squinted my eyes and looked at the sun in the sky, not knowing how to answer her.What do I look like growing up?But... Appearance is not the yardstick for defining my maturity, Jiahe.

When I was very, very early, I was no longer a child.However, if it reassures you to feel this way, I will naturally not argue with anything.

How much time has passed?It seems to be only a few decades. For the Demon God, there is not much difference between these decades and a few days.But for humans, far too long has passed.

It’s been so long that the group of people I’ve known has changed for a generation, and those who left early, such as Tonghua, her great-granddaughter has already grown up, and has also started to work for the seven stars selected by Morax to manage Liyue.

After a long time, even if the lifespan of the God's Eye holder is much longer than that of ordinary people, Jiahe will become gray-haired and look old.

Every day we meet, I find her a little weaker.The once exuberant vitality lost with time, and disappeared little by little in the torrent of time.

"Jiahe, if one day we never see each other again, what would you want to tell me?"

Cicadas chirping, sunshine, and the wind that became cooler after passing through the branches and leaves, I listened closely to her answer.

Say something?Jiahe's eyes have become dizzy, and she can't even see the appearance of the most important person around her.Just listening to her voice, I can feel the emotions in her heart.

Don't be sad, Chong Xiao.

"...Don't forget me. But don't always remember me. Get to know more people, Chong Xiao, I hope that in the future, there will be countless people like me who can bring you a little bit of relaxation or happiness."

She reached out her hand and grabbed me.In such a warm afternoon, her hands were also slightly cool.

"In the past, because I wanted to always be the only special human being in your heart, I never tried to lead you into the real crowd. You are in Liyue, but your heart has never stayed here. Even though I, Dijun, and my lord and the others are all here, you are always wandering outside, never approaching."

"After I left, the connection between you and Liyue was broken again. Chongxiao, you are the only person I love, the only person I care about. I hope you can be happy. How long is the life of the Demon God? Your happiness It can last as long as it lasts. Although the emperor will always be by your side in the future, the demon god's concept of time is really too bad... If you have to prepare a surprise for ten years, it is too long."

"But human beings are different. I believe that, Chongxiao, you will definitely meet people again and meet people again. There will be people like me who can not be deceived by appearances and like and fall in love with the truest you."

"The relationship with people may be short, but it will definitely be passed on for a long time. At the end of the day, we will wait together at the agreed place for the day when we meet again."

"Don't be sad...look forward to the future, Chong Xiao."

I closed my eyes. "That's right... But my memory is not good, at least, not as good as Morax. What if I forget you and those people I met later?"

"If I couldn't even pronounce your name when we met, you would definitely cry."

"Who would cry? I'm not a child anymore." Jiahe laughed. "Then write a diary and write down the memory with a pen. In this way, when you are about to forget, you can read it and remember it."

"The joy when we met, the melancholy when we parted, tell me all about it when we meet next time."

"...Chong Xiao, I regret it. I thought it was for your own good that I kept pushing you away." Jiahe was silent for a while, then said in a low voice. "Obviously there is not much time left, but I have committed a childish temper."

I knew she was talking about letting children from other families come to play with her, and sighed, I tightened my fingers and held her tightly: "It's okay, I'm not angry. I wasn't really pushed away by you, While you're watching them, I'm watching you from the corner. I know your worry."

"But don't worry, I'm not that vulnerable."

I don't have this kind of experience, important people leave first.But Morax did, and the me I used to die in front of him didn't look good.

So, I can kind of understand that feeling...

But just like my reunion with him, I also believe that one day, I will reunite with Jiahe at a certain end.

Jiahe responded.

After a while, she hiccuped: "I want to sleep for a while, can you stay with me?"

"Of course." I readily agreed. "Sleep, Jiahe. When I wake up, I'm still here."

"Sleep peacefully."

I held her increasingly cold hand, and felt her breath gradually fade away... Farewell, it came so suddenly and so unusually.

That's how time took her from me.

Morax has waited for me for 300 years, but how many years will I have to wait for you?Golden Harvest.

I let out a breath and opened my eyes. The sun's rays fell on the fundus, and the irritated eyes were a little painful.A hand suddenly covered me, and the palm of the hand was close to my eyes.

"Chongxiao." The familiar voice and breath enveloped me.Morax came here at some point and embraced me. "The journey will always come to an end, there is no need to rush. One day, we will meet again at the end."

"Just like you and me."

"Of course I know—huh, I was just thinking about how to write a diary." I brought up another topic. "If the writing is not good, when the time comes to tell Jiahe, she will feel bored."

"And I almost can't remember the time I spent with Jiahe at the very beginning, how can I write it?"

Morax lowered his eyes, "It's okay, I remember everything. I can tell you slowly."

"...So in the very beginning, you often followed me and Jiahe."

"It's just that I don't trust you." He defended calmly.

I feel a little better, but I still can't lift my spirits. "The next thing..."

"I've contacted the Church of the Dead before I came, and they'll make arrangements," Morax said. "The pot that Ping made for you before... After that, let Jiahe stay in it, how about it?"

Ping is a fairy. She is not good at fighting, but she is proficient in all kinds of ingenious magic.The pot he was talking about was a separate small world, and only the holder who left the imprinted breath could enter and exit freely.There is not much space inside, but it is very suitable as the main house for sleeping in the wild.

As long as you bring the pot, you don't have to worry about eating and sleeping.

"kindness."

"Then you should have a good rest." He continued. "You haven't really slept for more than half a year...Although your body is fine, your spirit is at its limit."

Ever since he discovered that Jiahe's body was starting to weaken, Chong Xiao began to mark people all the time.Open and aboveboard during the day, sneaky at night.Twelve hours a day, he never left Jiahe's side for a hundred meters.

Morax was sympathetic to her feelings, so he didn't dissuade her.But now, the Sri Lankan has passed away, and the living is like this, so she should come out and look forward.

Just like what Jiahe said at the end, she hoped that in the future, Chongxiao could form a long and lasting relationship with people and Liyue again.To see, to feel, to experience more, the feeling of being loved.

So did Morax.

He gently pressed the head of the demon girl in his arms into his arms, lowered his voice, and said softly. "Sleep, I will always be by your side with you."

"... No work to be busy?"

"It's over. After that, there will be more free time. We are handing over most of the things to the people of Liyue."

"In the final analysis, what we need to do is to guide, not to do everything by ourselves."

"That's it... that's right." I said vaguely, and my consciousness fell into the deep darkness.In the dream, I saw Jiahe when I was young.

She burst into tears and looked at me pitifully.

But quickly wiped away tears, and waved goodbye to me.Then, she turned around and stepped on the road that appeared behind her at unknown time, and went away without looking back.

Heroic and valiant, vivid.

In the end, it turned into a gradually receding figure, deeply remaining in my heart and in my eyes.
