Chapter 1557 Ten Moons
Like a drop of water breaking through the dark ink layer, under the deep darkness, Li Huoyue suddenly picked up a complete fragment and saw a blue light, as if she was trapped in a dark blue water.
In that memory, she vaguely saw a hand reaching out to her.
Just this fragment, perhaps this is the only picture in the nightmare that is worthy of her memory synapses, and can make her remember deeply in the dream that actively melts.
The will of the Holy Will, the bloody wronged souls in the past, and the hand that finally reached out in the dark blue, the unrelated memory points, those sad emotions, overflowing in the chest all the time, making people want to cry.
It was at this moment that she understood how the tears came out when she woke up.
It was not inexplicable sentimentality, nor was it regretful tears, but gratitude for the response to the only call.
So she is also a person who will be grateful?
So she is also a person who will ask for help?
If this hand had appeared earlier, there might not be such a mean and cold-blooded woman named Li Huoyue in the world, a woman she hated from the bottom of her heart.
She was so ridiculous that she thought she would never regret the path she chose, but she didn't know that everyone who could make such a statement had never really been redeemed. They took the wrong path because of their sorrow, because they were sure that the world was terrible and they could not be saved, so they insisted on their own way.
Until they were truly redeemed, they would understand how stupid and extreme they were.
Death seemed to be the relief at that moment. Eating this fruit would cure all the diseases of life.
Li Huoyue figured out this truth, so she accepted her own death.
She looked at the hand that reached out to her, gradually retracted her outstretched hand, sank into the sea, and embraced the darkness.
It was high tide at this time, but she retreated with the past tide.
—
A hand, the hand in the blue dream, crossed the boundary between nightmare and reality, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her up, along with her scattered consciousness and the remaining vitality, out of the sea in one breath!
Someone refused her death.
On the vast sea of the storm, Li Huoyue was pulled out of the water, the air touched her skin again, and the blood mist that was scattered reabsorbed oxygen into her body. Her chest was hit hard, and the paralyzed heart suddenly tightened, and then beat fiercely. She opened her mouth and nose, her pupils locked, and she coughed violently out the seawater she inhaled when drowning, lying on the chest of the man in front of her, lowering her head and coughing violently.
Death can indeed separate people, but after someone once refused Li Huoyue's death, death for her was nothing more than a distance that brought people closer.
The sun that sank into the ocean should not surface in the middle of the night to hold up the drowned moon in the stormy clouds, just like no normal person can swim through the stormy Indian Sea and come to the deep sea area several kilometers away from the ground to rescue a woman who is looking for death.
Because the cold body temperature taken away by cardiac arrest and seawater invasion gradually warmed up quickly because of the chest of the person in front of him, he was like the sun that set in the west and sank into the sea. He should have waited until the night was over before rising from the other side of the sea level, but now he appeared here cheatingly.
Li Huoyue did not look up, and her right hand gently rested on his shoulder. Her twitching heart gradually slowed down until her breathing became smooth, and then she slowly looked up and saw the face of the man in front of her, and the pair of light golden eyes, illuminating her pale and fragile cheeks like the sun.
"Found you." Lin Nian whispered.
They were floating in the sea, and Lin Nian was the boat. No matter how the waves hit him, he could never sink. The people sitting on the boat could only feel at ease, as if they could fall asleep on the spot, and when they woke up, they would land on the solid ground.
Li Huoyue didn't speak, but just lowered her head slightly, and gently hung her hands on Lin Nian's shoulders. This was her last strength, trying not to cause trouble to the other party's swimming as much as possible, and freeing the other party's floating hands.
Lin Nian took Li Huoyue in front of him, leaned back slightly, so that she could rely on his chest, and kept paddling backwards with both hands to swim in the direction they came from. This place is a full five kilometers away from the land, which also means that Li Huoyue's escape during the panic attack has put her in a place of death that ordinary people cannot reach.
The five-kilometer storm was like her life and suffering. No one could drag her out of that muddy world. But the man in front of her was never an ordinary person. The swimming skills she practiced in the raging waves of the waterspouts in Baidi City and the dragons were not good enough for the Indian Ocean.
The five-kilometer waves were turbulent, but Li Huoyue hardly felt any danger. She leaned on the man in front of her and passed through in an incredibly stable way.
That was the first time in her life that she relied on someone else for life and death. All the burdens and burdens were thrown away. The person in front of her could take them. That sense of security was like the vast ocean. The sense of sinking made her heart tighten. That sense of security was like a deadly poison. People who drink poison to quench their thirst certainly know that poisoned wine will kill people, but there are always some reasons that make them willing to die and swallow the wine into their throats.
The weather was good. When approaching the seaside, the storm gradually stopped. The seawater no longer roared and approached a steady rise. The moon also appeared from the sky and shone on the two people on the sea. Li Hueyue raised his head and glanced at him. , I found that there was only tranquility on his face, as if nothing could affect his mood, so calm, facing everything bad and stupid, he could accept everything calmly.
He took Li Hueyue back to the beach, carried her on his back, and walked step by step to the soft white sand that could not be submerged by the tide. This was the side of the island that had been pulled up because of the appearance of the deep lake. There were no people or lights in the cordon area. Only the moonlight after the dark clouds left shone on the sand. The only surviving coconut tree kept swaying and making a rustling sound.
Lin Nian put Li Huanyue down from his back and let her lie flat on the soft sand. He took off his T-shirt, wring out all the moisture from the clothes, and then took off his shorts. Repeat this process.
After finishing everything, he put on his clothes again, walked to Li Huoyue and sat down. He didn't say anything, just put his hands on his knees and looked at the sea.
He didn't ask why Li Hueyue appeared on the sea five kilometers away. He just stayed by her side, allowing the frequency of the heart in her chest to gradually resonate and stabilize, soothing the twitching and unstable heart rate.
Li Huoyue opened her eyes slightly, looked at the moon peeking between the leaves of the coconut trees, and said softly,
"have a finger in the pie."
"Will you die if you say thank you?" Lin Nian said lightly.
Li Huoyue was quiet for a moment and said, "Thank you."
Can't you still speak human language?
Lin Nian lowered his head to look at this fragile but still courageous woman, but she had already turned her head and looked to the other side, leaving only a pale and haggard side face for him to see.
Lin Nian stood up and seemed to be leaving. Just as he turned around, Li Hueyue's voice came, very low and soft, "Why do you want to save me?"
"Which time?" Lin Nian asked without looking back.
Was it the time when he helped her kill the heads of the five major clans, the time when he gave her a heart in the Northern Nibelung, or the time during the violent storm in the sea just now?
"Do you love me?"
In the silence, Li Huanyue asked a question in a low voice that was very inappropriate and inconsistent with the atmosphere.
Lin Nian stopped, seemingly bored by these words.
It's hard to imagine that these simple words could actually come from the mouth of the woman behind her. She asked them in an indifferent and plain tone. There was no so-called charming feeling and no so-called coquettishness. She was just asking questions, as if She was really curious about the question itself.
"Why do you think so?" Lin Nian stopped and turned to look at her.
Li Hueyue did not answer this question, but just looked at the moon and cloud shadows in the sky.
Is there any other reason?
Lin Nian thought her question was quite stupid, and she also thought Lin Nian's reply was strange.
Everyone judges others by themselves, and uses their own cognition and thinking to understand everything in the world. Therefore, within the scope of her cognition, Lin Nian’s unreasonable and regardless of the cost of giving, this kind of Stupid behavior can only be explained by "love" - just like the man and woman who betrayed their family for "love" and paid a huge price just for a moment of freedom.
So, naturally, she also thought that this kind of thing seemed to happen to her, which made her feel confused and incomprehensible. The only answer she could find was the one that even she found ridiculous.
Because Lin Nian fell in love with him, that's why he spent so much effort to save himself.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Lin Nian stood there with his back to her and bowed his head in silence for a long time. It wasn't until the warm sea breeze was about to dry him that he raised his head and said slowly,
"I don't know why you appeared in such a deep storm, and I'm not going to pursue this question. As for you asking me why I saved you. Who hasn't imagined that someone can help you when you are desperate and sad? Pull out that rotten quagmire yourself?"
"I haven't asked anyone for help." Li Huanyue tilted her head and did not look at Lin Nian, and Lin Nian couldn't see her face.
"Then why did you reach out to the sea when you were drowning? Why did you open your mouth and want to shout for help?" Lin Nian whispered,
"I have been desperate too. I know that feeling, that feeling of powerlessness. Li Hueyue, do you know? I saw the signal for help from your eyes very early. When I first saw you, you were full of It gives off that kind of desperate signal. I don’t mind giving her a hand when I see someone who is also desperate. You can call me nosy or selfish, but I don’t care.”
"So are you just pitying me?" Li Huoyue turned around and looked at Lin Nian's back and asked.
"Yes, I just pity you." Lin Nian turned his head and looked into this woman's eyes, "I can see that you are trying to be strong. I knew it the first time I met you. We are the same kind of people. We are both. People who are trying to be strong are fucked up, like hedgehogs, they refuse all care and insist on going their own way, so people who are trying to be strong can only be understood and scolded by stronger people. "
He did understand Li Hueyue.
He hadn't fully recovered yet, and when he still sensed that something was wrong with Li Hueyue's condition, he plunged into the stormy sea to find her.
Like Li Hueyue, he is a fool who is brave enough to die.
After that, he threw the wrung-out T-shirt to her, and it fell in front of her. "It's getting late, go to bed early, and take a hot bath. Don't catch a cold after soaking in the sea water for so long."
The footsteps on the beach gradually faded away, and the sea tide continued to hit the white sand, bringing countless gravels.
Li Huoyue's right hand fingers slightly closed, holding the dry and warm clothes in front of her, silently watching the back of the slowly walking away in the moonlight, and it was hard to tell whether it was the residual sea water or something else on his face.
