The wild cats runs in the boundless wilderness, its long flowing hair moves with the wind, the surrounding scenery quickly passes by, and the car is completely silent.
The green colour of the mountain forest can be seen in the distance, especially in the wilderness full of loess and grey stone. However, “Wangshan ran a dead horse” (T/N: it looks very close but is actually far away) was not just talk. Although it looked like it was within reach, the wild cats ran for more than half an hour before stopping.
For half an hour, Shi Xue Li was resting behind closed doors. Ka’er looked at them with interest when they got into the car and closed his eyes after a while.
Only Kui Ke, this guy was very straightforward, his eyes kept moving around the two of them, and he opened and closed his mouth several times, obviously wanting to say something, but he didn’t say anything in the end. It’s just that expression, it looks like it’s uncomfortable.
Xia Nuo leaned on the man, his body was stiff at first. Unable to refuse the man’s “kindness”, his original plan to keep a distance from him was a complete failure.
He didn’t know what to say, he could only look at the boundless wilderness outside the car. The wilderness was endless. Looking at the unchanging scenery, his eyelids gradually became heavy…
Not long after, Xia Nuo tilted his head and fell asleep on top of the man.
The man raised the corners of his lips and adjusted his posture to make him sleep more peacefully. At the same time, the stones on the road quickly disappeared without a trace.
The road became flat, the car naturally stopped bumping, Xia Nuo’s breathing gradually became longer, and he fell asleep.
He had a brief and strange dream.
In the dream, he stood in front of a gorgeously decorated gate, and there was nothing in front of him, looking at the darkness that made people panic. Behind him, a blurred figure stood there quietly looking at him.
Xia Nuo couldn’t see his face clearly but felt that his figure was very familiar as if he had seen him many times before. But if you ask him to say it, he can’t tell who it is for a while.
Just looking at that figure, he felt an indescribable sadness in his heart.
The sky was gloomy, and heavy clouds shrouded it as if a heavy rain was about to come. A few dark birds hovered low under the clouds, making rough and hoarse calls. Then they rushed forward and completely swallowed that figure.
“Ah――” The chirping of birds echoed in his ears.
Shocked, Xia Nuo sat up abruptly.
“What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?”
The young man’s face was still full of fear, his eyes were empty, and he couldn’t find the focus for a while.
His chest rose and fell rapidly, and he subconsciously grabbed the man’s clothes and asked anxiously, “Are you okay?”
The man slowly held his hand, patted his back gently, and comforted him in a low and gentle voice: “I’m fine, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid…”
Although he didn’t know what the boy dreamed about, seeing the boy’s frightened appearance, his heart suddenly contracted, and an unspeakable feeling came to his heart.
Regardless of experiencing this wonderful feeling that he has never had before, the only thing he thinks about now is not to let the young man show such a helpless appearance.
Xia Nuo looked at him blankly.
In fact, it was only when he saw the man being swallowed by the crow that he realized it. No wonder he felt familiar. Isn’t that figure exactly the same as Kan Lan’er?
Even if it is a dream, the feeling of losing an important person is still very clear.
So after waking up from the dream, and seeing the man again, his first reaction was – is he okay?
Xia Nuo’s emotions gradually calmed down. He embarrassedly loosened the corner of the man’s clothes and lowered his head: “I’m sorry, I overreacted.”
He was still a little puzzled, saying that he thought about it every day and dreamed at night, why would he have such a dream?
And the bird that devoured him in the dream was exactly the same as his crow, obviously in reality the crow really liked him?
Xia Nuo couldn’t figure it out, he glanced around subconsciously and found that there were only the two of them left in the car.
“Have we arrived already?” He raised his face and asked, the fragility on his face was still not completely faded, his eyes were misty, like black pearls filled with light, and he looked very cute.
“No, we haven’t entered the mountain yet.” The man shook his head but his hand didn’t stop, he continued stroking the boy’s back, “Before entering the mountain forest, you have to worship the sacred tree and obtain its permission before you enter the mountain.”
“Then let’s go down quickly, we can’t keep everyone waiting.” Xia Nuo took a deep breath, rubbed his eyes, and tried his best not to show any abnormality in his appearance.
He even made a joke: “Say, if I go like this, will everyone think you bullied me?”
His voice was soft, with slightly imperceptible hoarseness.
“Very likely.”
The man gently stroked his wet eyelashes, the boy closed his eyes, his long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and his fair face looked cute and pure.
“Okay, so it can’t be seen.”
He led Xia Nuo’s hand out of the car, and the boy obediently followed behind him.
After getting off the car, the crow circling in the sky swooped down.
It didn’t follow Xia Nuo into the car, but flew with the car all the way, even faster than the wild cats.
When Xia Nuo appeared, it immediately flew over, trying to land on the boy’s shoulder.
However, the man keenly noticed that the moment he saw the crow, the boy’s body froze for a moment, and he even took a step back, as if he wanted to avoid it.
The teenager’s dream is related to the crow? The man guessed so but didn’t ask.
After all, he managed to coax the young man well, what if he mentions it again and the young man is sad again?
It is better not to ask.
When Zhuo’er saw them, he immediately greeted them: “You will preside over the ceremony.”
As he said this, the three people waiting aside did not show any dissatisfaction.
After all, there is a specialisation in the art industry. In the beginning, Shi Xue Li also agreed to bring Kan Lan’er in consideration of the need for someone to worship the sacred tree. Otherwise, seeing his appearance of not recovering from a serious illness, she wouldn’t want to bring along a dragger.
In fact, the ceremony is not difficult to say, nor is it easy to say, as long as the person presiding over the ceremony can communicate with the sacred tree.
But under this condition, countless people can be wiped out.
Regarding the point of communicating with the holy tree, I don’t know if it is the inherent skill of the village chief, or if he can only communicate with the holy tree, he can become the village chief. Anyway, for such a big Nasuru, apart from the village chief, only Kan Lan’er can do this, and he is also the sure successor of the village chief.
Hearing Zhou’er’s words, Xia Nuo took the initiative to let go of the man’s hand, and the man took a few steps forward, stood still in front of the holy tree, and at the same time put his hand on the tree.
The man closed his eyes as if he was concentrating on communicating with the sacred tree. Xia Nuo’s attention was unconsciously put on the holy tree.
Actually, to be precise, the sacred tree in front of them is actually just a clone. The real sacred tree grows on the top of a high mountain. The huge root system wraps the entire mountain, and the huge tree body clearly shows its own sense of existence.
Although the holy tree in front of them is just a clone, less than one-tenth of the main body, it also exudes awe-inspiring and inviolable power, which cannot be underestimated.
A gust of wind blew by, and its green leaves swayed gently in the wind, making a rattling sound.
For no reason, Xia Nuo had the illusion that it was greeting him, but he quickly denied it, and he couldn’t help laughing: Isn’t this idea a little too outrageous?
It just so happened that Kan Lan’er finished communicating with the Holy Tree and said: “The Holy Tree agreed with us to enter the forest. Now everyone can put their hands on the tree one by one like I did just now. If you get the favour of the Holy Tree, the Holy Tree will give you a blessing.”
“Blessing?”
Shi Xue Li and the others immediately thought of it, is this an item?
The corner of the man’s lips curled up: “This blessing can give people the protection of the holy tree, reduce the possibility of encountering danger in the mountains, and possibly receive gifts from the holy tree.”
Kui Ke’s eyes lit up, and he heard the man add: “But the probability is very low, maybe only one percent.”
One percent?
Everyone had different ideas but decided to give it a try.
Shi Xue Li was naturally first, then Ka’er, then Kui Ke. But after they put their hands on it, nothing happened, and it was obvious that the lucky one was not among them.
Xia Nuo didn’t have any hope for this either. After all, he was a pure-blooded non-chieftain (someone with the worst luck). This kind of luck would never fall on his head.
With this mentality in mind, Xia Nuo stepped forward and put his hand on the tree.
The body of the sacred tree was very smooth and cold to the touch, Xia Nuo quickly let go of it, turned to Shi Xue Li and the others and said, “Me too…” No.
Before he finished speaking, he saw everyone’s surprised eyes. Following their gaze, Xia Nuo turned his head and saw this wonderful scene.
Under the original layers of green leaves, many flower buds formed in an instant, and then they bloomed quickly. The petals were piled up one after another, and the gorgeous colours smudged on them, which was so beautiful.
——Then, the flowers fell down and sprinkled one after another on the ignorant young man. The young man’s head, shoulders, and arms were full of colourful flowers, and his nose was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
Until his arms were covered with flowers, Xia Nuo still couldn’t believe it: This lucky guy is actually me?
The wild cats runs in the boundless wilderness, its long flowing hair moves with the wind, the surrounding scenery quickly passes by, and the car is completely silent.
The green colour of the mountain forest can be seen in the distance, especially in the wilderness full of loess and grey stone.
