Chapter 218 The Weeds Should Die in the Wind without Anyone Paying Attention
The last sound disappeared.
Along with it, the smiling white light and the struggling [Demi-God] Tulo on this continent disappeared.
Lu Changsheng staggered and almost fell.
No...
I can't rest yet...
I haven't finished what I promised him...
Lu Changsheng forced himself to stabilize his body, raised his right hand with difficulty, and reached for the direction in his memory.
The gentle pressure enveloped Tina and brought her to Lu Changsheng's side.
Tina slid gently into Lu Changsheng's arms like a fallen leaf.
Her body had begun to become cold, and her originally delicate and elastic skin had become dull and loose.
Those clear amber eyes were now turbid.
Tina's breathing became weaker and weaker, and every breath she took was rapid and weak.
The world in front of her had lost all its colors.
There was only an annoying "buzzing" sound in her ears.
"I... remember everything..."
A drop of crystal tears flowed down Tina's sunken eye sockets and slowly slid down her wrinkled skin.
"Tu Luo..."
"The last words..."
"He said we..."
"Just a bunch of worthless weeds..."
"Weeds...should die in the wind...where no one cares..."
Lu Changsheng held Tina's hand and jumped slightly.
He couldn't see Tina's appearance now, but he could sense that her life was about to go out.
There was no time to waste.
Lu Changsheng held Tina's skinny body with his left hand, pointed to the sky with his right hand, bent his index finger and ring finger, and drew a circle on his palm with his thumb.
According to the unique operating order of the supernatural power in the body.
The sealing array was opened again.
But this time, it no longer suppressed everything with the power of thunder, but turned into a gentle stream, carrying Lu Changsheng and Tina into a peaceful and gorgeous dream.
......
The sudden onset of white light made the "blind" Lu Changsheng unable to adapt for a while.
He hurriedly covered his eyes with his palms.
The soft sunlight sprinkled on his face through his fingers, making him feel warm.
Under Lu Changsheng was an endless green grassland, and the fresh air with a slight sweetness quietly penetrated into his nose.
A breeze blew by, bringing the fragrance of flowers in the distance.
Lu Changsheng couldn't tell the variety of the flowers, he just sat up in a daze.
He was on a low hillside, and there was a large area of low houses in front of him.
The thatched houses had a little reinforced concrete texture.
Countless chimneys were emitting curling smoke.
The sky that could be seen was slightly white and clear, extending freely above the houses to the distance.
It seemed that there was no boundary between heaven and earth here, they were intertwined and indistinguishable from each other.
Lu Changsheng sat quietly on the grass and took a deep breath. His heart seemed to have never been so peaceful.
For a moment, he even forgot why he was here.
Until a crisp female voice sounded in his ears, Lu Changsheng's thoughts were pulled back.
"Zhou Yi, I knew you were in a daze here again!"
Tina was wearing a colorful, light and elegant dress, and fine silver lines outlined delicate and complex patterns.
In her hair, there were several hand-woven flowers and exquisite silver ornaments, reflecting a faint halo in the sun.
On Tina's neck and wrists, she wore several necklaces and bracelets made of various gems and silver beads. They collided gently with her movements, making "dingling" and "dingling" sounds.
She was like a jumping little bell, running over and waving at Lu Changsheng.
Zhou Yi?
Lu Changsheng paused for a moment, then quickly reacted.
This dream was opened by Zhou Yi's formation, and it must have been built based on his worldview.
There is only Zhou Yi here, not Lu Changsheng.
Those houses should be what Zhou Yi saw when he entered the [Ancient Continent] for the second time, so there is a sense of déjà vu of the combination of primitive and modern.
As for Tina's clothes...
They should be the unique attire of the indigenous people here.
"Hurry up, today is the ancestor worship festival, we will miss it if we go late."
While Lu Changsheng was in a trance, Tina had already run to him, grabbed Lu Changsheng's hand, and ran down the mountain.
Lu Changsheng did not resist, he probably guessed how Zhou Yi would send Tina home.
The hillside is not far from the village.
The two soon arrived at the center of the village.
A huge bonfire was ready, and the villagers were all dressed in their best clothes, preparing the items needed for the sacrifice around the bonfire.
Tina held Lu Changsheng's hand and walked through the crowd. Her smile was like the sunshine in the early summer morning, bright but not dazzling.
She introduced everything around to Lu Changsheng from time to time. Although Lu Changsheng knew that this was just a dream constructed by Zhou Yi, the sense of reality made him immersed in it involuntarily.
Suddenly, a cheerful drum sounded, breaking the previous tranquility.
A group of dancers dressed in colorful clothes and wearing strange masks walked out of the crowd. They held various musical instruments and danced an ancient sacrificial dance around the bonfire.
The dance steps were rough and powerful, and every movement seemed to tell the story of the ancestors' struggle and coexistence with the demons.
Tina excitedly pulled Lu Changsheng to join the dance.
Lu Changsheng was not good at dancing and stepped on Tina's skirt several times, but she did not have any dissatisfaction, but took the initiative to slow down.
In the dream, there seemed to be no concept of time.
Lu Changsheng just watched the bonfire start, watching Tina jump under the warm firelight, the night seemed to be stretched by endless singing and laughter, and the time in the dream was as gentle and blurred as running water.
After several days and nights of reincarnation, Lu Changsheng and Tina witnessed every detail of the ancestor worship ceremony together, and enjoyed all kinds of food and wine, from the dawn to the stars.
Whenever night falls, the storytelling session by the bonfire becomes the moment they look forward to most.
The old people sat in a circle, telling stories about their ancestors' struggle and coexistence with the demons. Those heroic deeds and contests of wisdom made Lu Changsheng seem to have traveled through time and space and witnessed that magnificent history with his own eyes.
Tina taught Lu Changsheng some simple dance moves.
He would still step on Tina's skirt, but Tina could already avoid it in advance.
There was no disturbance or pressure from the outside world, only pure happiness and freedom.
Here, the human race did not have to fight the demons for survival, but would only regard all this as an interesting and wonderful after-dinner story.
Everyone enjoyed a pure life.
There was fine wine in hand and a lover by his side.
However, there would be a moment when the dream would wake up.
This was Tina's dream, not Lu Changsheng's.
When the last ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on every corner of the village, Lu Changsheng had a vague premonition that this wonderful journey was about to end.
Lu Changsheng sat on the small hillside he entered for the first time, with his back against a big tree, his hands resting on the back of his head, holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, chewing gently.
Tina sat quietly beside him, letting the warm sunlight sprinkle on her face.
"Zhou Yi, I heard the old man in the village say that there seems to be a real god in this world."
"Do you think it's true?"
Tina narrowed her eyes and asked softly.
Lu Changsheng was stunned for a moment, he turned his head, looked at Tina's amber eyes, and said seriously, "There are no gods in this world."
"There shouldn't be gods."
Tina was startled, then covered her mouth and chuckled, "Yes, I'm too stupid, how could I ask such a question."
A breeze blew, driving Tina's decorations.
The collision sound of "dingling" and "dingling" mixed with Tina's silver bell-like laughter reached the top of the mountain, crossed the mountain, and drifted farther and farther...
Finally.
Disappeared.
