Yun Xi said indifferently, "I can see that," and did not show any dissatisfaction towards Jin Yun.
When passing by a shop selling swimsuits, Jinyun suddenly teased, "Sister Xi, you finally come to the beach, don't you plan to change into a swimsuit?"
Unexpectedly, Yun Xi did not answer but asked: "Are you sure you want me to change?"
"Emmmm......"
Jinyun calmly glanced at the many passers-by around him whose attention was attracted by Yunxi, and immediately swallowed back his previous words:
"Just treat it as a fart."
"Oh, you're still a little brat."
Yun Xi raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth, stood on tiptoe slightly, and poked Jin Yun's forehead with his finger.
This sudden and intimate behavior of his girlfriend made Jinyun's cheeks turn slightly red.
I never expected that I was the king in the virtual game world, and I could easily control Mirror Ryu and Bronya. But when I came to reality, I blushed when I was poked by Sister Xi.
But that's not the case. The initiative to get along with them is in my hands because I know they are game characters, but Sister Xi is different!
She really exists~
On the way back, Jinyun followed Yunxi silently. The golden sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, slanting down like silk threads, falling on her body in patches.
Her straight and slender legs moved gracefully and slowly as she strolled among the swaying shadows of the trees. Her slender and perfect female figure was clearly outlined in the sunlight.
Perhaps it was because her skin was so delicate that the sunlight could almost penetrate her fair and tender skin and shine behind her, just like the light passing through exquisite jade.
“I’ve been here.”
Suddenly, Yun Xi, who had been silent since the beginning, stopped, said these words, and walked under a banyan tree.
This banyan tree is a small-leaved banyan, a common tree species in Sanya.
Jinyun looked up at the huge banyan tree with lush branches and leaves, and its green shade seemed to be enough to cover the sky and the sun, and couldn't help but take a deep breath in his heart.
It takes a long time for a tree to grow into such a big one.
The banyan tree is a long-lived tree, and the small-leaf banyan is also in good health. Without human or natural damage, a small-leaf banyan tree can survive for thousands of years.
Yun Xi stretched out her hand toward the banyan tree, and her slender white fingers stroked the dry wrinkles of the bark.
Her emerald green eyes dimmed slightly, as if she was lost in distant memories.
After a while, she suddenly spoke softly: "This tree, I remember it, a long, long time ago..."
"This tree?" Jinyun was stunned for a moment, and then he touched the dry bark. "When did you come here? When I was a child?"
"No, it should be when it was small."
"..."
Jinyun was very sure that there was no one else around the two of them.
In other words, the "it" Yun Xi mentioned in this sentence refers to the tree in front of the two people.
"...Forgive my poor understanding, Sister Xi, when you say childhood, how young are you talking about?"
Yun Xi raised his head, looked at the layers of lush green leaves of the banyan tree, and whispered:
"At least back then, it wasn't as tall as it was when you were in elementary school."
"Wow, is that so exaggerated? Judging from the growth rate of the banyan tree, you are talking about 20 to 30 years, right?"
While complaining, Jinyun thought about Yunxi's age and immediately shut up.
Well, if we really go by the old woman's age, let's say she is forty years old this year, then when she came to this place thirty years ago, she would have been about ten years old.
While thinking about this, Jinyun couldn't help but have a question:
Yun Xi...how old is she?
In fact, this problem has troubled Jinyun for many years. When he was a child, he didn't care about Yunxi's age, but as time passed, time flew by, and time seemed to have stopped moving for her.
But her appearance seems to have not changed in the past ten or twenty years.
Is it possible that there really exists a secret to keep one's youth in this world?
"Jinyun, have you ever thought about your own death?"
Suddenly, Yun Xi said something so confusing that Jin Yun was a little confused: "Ah?"
"Without death, there is no rebirth."
"That's right..." Jinyun's eyes darkened, and he said with a disappointed voice, "Sister Xi, even if you want to comfort me, don't be so straightforward..."
"I'm not talking about my aunt." Yun Xi pursed her lips and shook her head, "I'm talking about myself."
"what?"
Jinyun didn't understand what Yunxi meant.
This old woman always likes to speak in riddles, and sometimes it is difficult to understand what she wants to say.
But this time is different.
Jinyun clearly saw that the corners of Yun Xi's lips twitched slightly, and that exquisite face and clear green eyes revealed a tired and lonely look.
This was the first time Jinyun saw Yun Xi so sad.
"Jinyun, come with me to a place."
"Ah? Now?"
"Ah."
"But mom and the others are still waiting for us to go back."
"Oh, you, you..."
A hint of mockery appeared on Yun Xi's face, and his deep eyes seemed to be mocking him.
Jinyun was stunned for a moment, then carefully recalled his mother's expression just now.
Yes, there were people selling bottled drinks and mineral water nearby, but my mother insisted on asking for coconut juice. So it seems that she didn’t want to drink it, but just wanted Yun Xi and I to go shopping alone?
No, that's impossible. Mom can't possibly want to...
"So, are you going or not?"
Yun Xi urged again.
Jinyun had no reason to refuse, nor could he say no, so he nodded and agreed: "Well, although I don't know where to go... you lead the way."
Yunxi took out his cell phone, used the navigation to check the nearest route, and took Jinyun on a bus.
Jinyun couldn't help but complain in his heart. It seemed that the distance was not close enough and he actually had to take a car.
The bus drove along the coastline. Yun Xi looked at the scenery outside the window. The blue sea, blue sky, waves, seagulls, white sand, the sea and sky were all integrated into one. The coconut trees, flowers, and huge reefs complemented each other, which was refreshing.
Jinyun quietly watched Yunxi who was looking at the scenery. The warm sunlight sprinkled on her, making her already snow-white skin look like flawless white jade. Her white hair with green highlights looked pure and sacred in the light.
Jinyun couldn't help but think of a sentence:
You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people who look at the scenery look at you on the bridge.
The bright moon decorates your windows, and you decorate other people's dreams.
The bus stopped at the gate of Tianya Haijiao Scenic Area.
When Jinyun saw the four big words on the gate of the scenic spot, he guessed what Yunxi wanted to take him to see.
He couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy, and even when he was buying the ticket, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Yun Xi walked forward in silence. It was afternoon and most of the tourists in the scenic area were busy looking for food.
After passing through the scenic area and arriving at the beach, Jinyun, who had been silent all the way, casually found a topic:
"People nowadays are really good at doing some fancy and idiotic things. Two intertwined coconut trees are called lover trees, and two intertwined stones are called heart-shaped stones."
"Here we are."
Following Yun Xi's calm words, Jin Yun also stopped.
Looking up, the Tianya Stone stands on the beach, square and stable, perched on the shore of the South China Sea at the end of the world.
"This is the End of the World Stone..."
......
......
“This is the Cape Stone.”
Bronya stopped and looked at the beach rock in front of her with the word "Cape" engraved on it, and an indelible sorrow emerged in her gray eyes.
The heavy-duty bunny chattered beside her: "The End of the Earth Stone? I heard that it means that two people will never meet each other. It means that two people cannot meet because they are at the ends of the earth. The distance is too far to be crossed.
However, most people who come here are couples. The original meaning of Tianya Haijiao has become a place to witness the long-lasting loyalty of love...
This kind of forced change of tragedy into a happy ending is worthy of the Chinese people, and it is flashy and fancy. "
"It is precisely because the tragedy of reality cannot be changed that the perfection of the story is particularly precious."
"Ah? Bronya, did you say anything just now?"
"nothing."
Bronya shook her head and walked towards Cape Rock:
"Keep going, little rabbit, someone is waiting for us there."
Chapter 101 Like a Wife (5K)
Bronya walked slowly forward with the heavily-armored bunny. The sea breeze gently brushed her cheeks, bringing bursts of fresh sea scent.
Not long ago, all that could be smelled in this place was the smell of decay and death. After a long period of management, the ocean has finally gradually regained its former blue and clarity.
There are many tourists on the beach. With sunshine, sand and seagulls, it creates a peaceful scene everywhere.
Sometimes, Bronya couldn't help but wonder: Is our battle really over?
Whenever she had this thought, she would look up at the moon and comfort herself over and over again:
Yes, it's over.
Humanity finally succeeded in defeating the Honkai and sealed 99% of the Honkai energy on Earth on the moon...
With that kid.
The disaster ended at such a heavy price, and perhaps in the future, the collapse will become just a passing mention in history books.
Only the present moment is worth cherishing.
Coming back to her senses, Bronya caught a glimpse of the familiar figure from the corner of her eye. She took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the other person's location.
"Aunt Liu."
Hearing Bronya's call, the figure slowly turned around, the thin silk scarf fluttering in the wind, and the distant horizon formed a landscape of sea and sky.
"Bronya." Liu Mei took off her sunglasses and smiled on her slightly aged face. "We finally meet again."
"Yes, the last time we met, it was Anti-Entropy announcing the end of the Great Collapse."
"It's been eight years since we last met. How are you doing?"
"Well, after the Great Honkai ended, I resigned from my position at Tenmi and joined the animation company ETStudio."
"You mentioned in the letter you sent me that you also became the chief producer, right? Congratulations on achieving your dream."
"My, dream..."
Bronya's eyes dimmed, and her voice unconsciously lowered a little:
“Making games is indeed my dream…”
But my real dream is to be able to walk on the soft golden beach with that person again and look out at the endless blue sea.
Just like it is now.
Liu Mei noticed that Bronya's expression became depressed, and she knew what she was thinking without having to guess.
