Stranded on a Deserted Island, What to Do?

After a year, the Hezhou Rebellion finally subsided.Then there's the festive revelry and...a farewell to the heroes.

Her Majesty the Queen held a state funeral for the soldiers who died. All the martyrs were promoted to three ranks and buried in the National Cemetery of Martyrs.In another royal cemetery, a small funeral was also quietly going on.

Hua Mu was wearing a black mourning dress, a black veil on her face, and a white chrysanthemum on her chest. She stood in front of the mausoleum where she would be buried in the future.

Bai Zhen's body was still frozen, and because the ice hadn't melted, he had to build a huge crystal coffin.Except for the incomplete left arm, the sentry has almost no scars on other parts, and his expression is calm and lifelike.

Although there is no fact of marriage, as a partner of a member of the royal family, Bai Zhen's body will be temporarily parked in the side room of Hua Mu's mausoleum, and will be buried together when she dies.

Today is not a good weather, the rain is hazy and lingering.Hua Tuo and Hua Jian couldn't accompany her because they attended the state funeral. Of course, Hua Mu didn't need their company—she didn't need anything anymore.

Crying hysterically, refusing to acknowledge the truth, taking out anger on others, and attempting to end one's life.She tried everything, but nothing worked, and all that remained was numbness.

If you don't think about anything, your heart won't hurt, right?

Hua Mu's personal maid Alma held an umbrella for her, her face was full of worry.

The side door of the mausoleum, which had been covered in dust for a long time, was opened for the first time, and the coffin of the sentinel began to move slowly inside.Hua Mu supported the wall of the crystal coffin and followed the team forward.

There are exquisite murals, lifelike marble sculptures and valuable works of art, but they still cannot change the cold and gloomy fact.

The owner of the tomb should not have entered the tomb during his lifetime, because it was too unlucky.But no one dared to dissuade her. People who knew the facts felt pity for this pair of hard-fated lovers.

However, the sympathy and pity of others is always temporary, and the long-term pain will only be tasted by relatives and lovers.

"I want to stay inside for a while, you all go out first."

Alma wanted to object, especially since Hua Mu had committed suicide before.But she couldn't say it, and for the guide and sentinel who lost their partner, the rest of their lives were almost wasted.

Although most members of the royal family will not be in danger of life due to the death of their partner, their life span is too short for ordinary sentinels and guides.The lack of comfort from a partner is one reason, and the more important reason is long-term pain and longing.

"White pillow..."

Through the crystal and ice, Hua Mu saw the serene face of the sentinel.In the end, the layer of ice that wrapped the white pillow couldn't melt for some reason, so there was no way to do anything with her body. Hua Mu couldn't even touch her for the last time.

"White pillow." She murmured and repeated the sentinel's name, with attachment, reluctance and resentment.

Hua Mu's heart was full of pain and hatred, and it wasn't aimed at anyone. What he had to say was probably dissatisfaction with fate.

She recalled all the past, recalled the joy and expectation that she was full of, recalled those innocent expectations, and her heart felt as painful as Ling Chi.Memories were honed into sharp daggers, mocking her ignorance.

Just over a year ago, love was far from her.She was troubled by the unexplainable sour love affair, and secretly delighted and apprehensive about the vague possibility.That girl's mind is full of twists and turns, even the uneasiness is sweet.

But now, it was her lover who was so far away from her.Her lover is a Sentinel who has saved countless lives and is called a martyr. He is the youngest major general in the empire. Like every soldier who died in this cruel war, he is a well-deserved hero.

What a painful fact this is?

When Hua Wushang passed away, Hua Mu was deeply shocked.However, she felt nothing when she lost the white pillow.She could only see the white light in front of her eyes, could only hear the rumbling hum, and could only feel the coldness all over her body.

what happened?

When Hua Mu was lying on the suspended stretcher, there was only one thought in his mind: What happened?

She had never felt this way.Is the body cold or hot?Is the heart beating fast or slow?Does time stop or speed up?

All senses were suddenly out of control, and she tasted the taste of soul upside down.

Ah, this is death.

In the spring when she was 19 years old, Hua Mu knew the feeling of death.Because of the interlinking of minds and souls, the death experience of the partner was clearly transmitted to her body.

This is also the reason why sentries and guides often cannot live alone after they form a partner.

Now that you have experienced the pain of death, how can you live on?

Hua Mu didn't shed a single tear in the first three days, so how could a dead person feel sadness?Until Bai Zhen's body was finally freed from the ice, until she saw Bai Zhen's face with her own eyes, until she finally touched the coldness personally.

But it's not very painful, it's more empty than painful.Body, heart, and soul are all empty.Only then did she suddenly realize that Luna... was gone.

Gone, nothing, not her future.

"White pillow..."

Hua Mu sat down slowly with her back against the coffin wall, feeling the coldness coming from it.The end of extreme cold is warmth, the same signal that cell death sends.

"Woooooooooo...the white pillow..."

But the 19-year-old girl was full of longing for love not long ago, and full of predictable happy future not long ago.

But now, there is nothing left.

Feeling the ultimate happiness prematurely, also feeling the extreme pain prematurely.

It turned out that at this moment, she was really living on a deserted island—without a lover by her side, the deserted island was in her heart.

The sky gradually darkened, and night also came.

Alma looked at the flower clusters that had been waiting in the rain for more than two hours, and asked with some concern, "Your Majesty, do you want...bring the eldest lady back?"

Blossom Cluster didn't bring any other attendants, only the Faceless Man stood behind her holding an umbrella for her.

"No, let's talk about it when she thinks it out."

"Then you..."

Hua Cu didn't know how to comfort Hua Mu at all, and even felt ashamed to appear in front of her.It is an unchangeable fact that Bai Zhen died because of saving the kite.As Hua Mu once said, she sacrificed her daughter's partner for her lover.

What makes her unable to face Hua Mu even more is the peace of mind and secret joy she felt at Hua Zheng's safe return.Life and death are like a demon mirror, clearly showing people's despicableness and selfishness.

Because of this, Hua Tuo couldn't even face Hua Zheng. Every time she saw her joy, it was like a double-edged sword, cutting her relationship with Hua Mu and her relationship with Hua Zheng to pieces.

"I'll stand for a while and go."

Alma didn't dare to disturb her, and quietly walked to the other side to wait.

"this is not your fault."

The raindrops fell on the umbrella with a clear and dull sound.The Faceless Man suddenly spoke at this moment, his tone was always cold and calm.

"Can I say that to Mu Mu?"

Stop deceiving yourself and others, it's her fault.

The faceless man fell into a rare silence.

"At least it's not your fault alone."

The flower clusters turned their heads to look at the eyes of the faceless man, those emerald green pupils were still created by the mask, they were cold virtual images.

"What's wrong?" Hua Zheng didn't seem to understand why she was surprised.

"I thought you would say something colder."

Fingers like white jade tightly pinched the handle of the umbrella.

"What choice did Hua Jian make?"

Just when Hua Cu thought she would say something else, the other party suddenly changed the subject.

Victory is not the end of war, but only the beginning.The council has been arguing for a month over the disposal of the experimental subjects created by Hua Ce.During this period, Du Simin and Elsa miraculously woke up.

For Hua Jian who had already given up, she really didn't know whether to be happy or worried about this matter.

But Hua Tuo hadn't seen him so happy for a long time, even if it might be just an illusion, she couldn't bear to destroy it.

"He is struggling. If it was in the past, he might be able to ignore everything for the sake of Simin. But now, Mumu's situation..."

Yes, as a father, how can he let go of his daughter who just lost the love of his life?But if he chooses Du Simin, he must give up his title and wealth, all other possessions, to make atonement.And this also means that Hua Mu will lose her father after losing her lover.

Moreover, he also has the same worries as the flower clusters, and the happiness thus obtained seems to be at the expense of his daughter's happiness.

"Hasn't he struggled with Du Simin's identity?"

Hua Zui sighed, "Maybe, but you know, the same appearance, the same memory, and the same personality are too difficult to refuse. We don't have religious beliefs, so we can't expect to die after death." Get together or renew the relationship in the next life. The only real happiness is the happiness that can be grasped in front of you, and Ah Jian has never been so calm and hesitant."

"That's right..." Huazheng seemed to be answering the flowers, and whispered as if talking to herself, "If he is determined, I don't mind providing him with serum."

"Let's talk about it..." Hua Tuo turned her eyes to the direction of Hua Mu again, "We will talk about everything after the pain is over."

"Ah."

But Huazheng knew that this pain could not be overcome.Although she couldn't feel the emotion, she clearly knew this fact.Just like Hua Jian, after so many years, she still hasn't survived the pain, so she is desperate to regain hope.

As long as the white pillow is absent, no one will be able to obtain happiness, and no one will have a happy ending.

From this moment... no, from the moment Baizhen sacrificed, everyone landed on their own desert island.
