Jiu Ge’s Beloved Spirit

   "Beate—"

   made a trembling voice, but nothing could be heard, only an echo.

   Empty, echoing.

  He fell in an unknown place and tried to get up, but when he touched it, the sticky and weird liquid was stained.

   It's everywhere, hands, feet, everything.

   All of them have that rotten and sour smell, as if it has been fermented for hundreds of thousands of years.

  Once it is touched, it cannot be shaken off.

   "Beate-Beate-"

   April, who hurt his eye, panicked more and more.

   Shouting loudly, his hands kept reaching forward.

   "Joccelyn—Jack—"

"Where are you-"

  The voice keeps echoing.

  Here, as if isolated from the world, it is so quiet that life stops and death disappears.

  It was so quiet that nothing could be heard.

   All I could hear was my own rapid heartbeat and the dripping of the viscous liquid.

   One drop, one drop.

   April stumbled and stood up.

   "Beate—"

   He shouted with all his strength.

"Where are you-"

  The empty space is like the mouth of a demon.

   Zhang Zhang, grinning.

  Eerie.

  …

  …

  …

  Nia opened her eyes instantly.

   There was a clear light in the light-pink eyes.

   After falling asleep and waking up again, it was already early morning outside.

  The sun did not know when it rose, and quietly, it sprinkled the light on the earth.

  A piece of gold, covered in vibrant grass.

  Beautiful butterfly **** its wings and travels among the flowers.

  It was quiet, everything looked so peaceful and beautiful.

   There was no sudden scream, nor the inexplicable sense of danger of suffocation.

  She lay on the bed, opened her eyes, and closed them again.

  I feel like I... had a hazy dream.

  In the dream, someone was screaming.

  Like in some disgusting place.

   "..." She rubbed her eyes, withdrew her thoughts, and looked to her side.

   Selene woke up at some point, and she is not here at the moment.

  When I touched it, the place where he was lying was cold.

   Explain that he has been away for a while and did not wake her up.

  It's no wonder that he's not here, she has weird dreams.

   After being in a daze for a while, she slowly got up.

  In the empty room, she was left alone.

   Lift the quilt, get out of bed, and walk out of the room.

   Squinting her eyes and looking at the grassland, there is a wind blowing past her.

  The warm wind seems to still have the breath of sunshine.

  She stood at the door of the wooden house, looking around.

   Didn't see people, only saw...

  Her nose moved, and her eyes fell on the fire in front of the wooden house.

   I don’t know where the firewood came from, piled up, and it’s almost burned by now.

  The black ashes left a little bit of sparks, and there was still faint smoke.

  On the ashes, two tree branches are standing, with a big fat rabbit in the middle.

  The skin has been peeled off, the internal organs have been pulled out, and it is baked until golden and crisp, with oil stains drop by drop.

   The fragrance is too much.

   The moment I smell it, my empty stomach is suddenly awakened.

   "Gulu~"

   It was really loud, it was earth-shattering.

  The person who hadn’t eaten all this time covered his belly and stared straight at the roasted rabbit.

   Swallowed, and walked over without blinking.

   Selene is not here, only a roasted rabbit is left here.

  She leaned in front of the firepit, squatted down, and licked her lips.

   want to eat...

   Her stomach growled, and she stared at it for a while.

  Looking up and looking around, I don't know where Selene has gone.

   "Selene..."

  She made a sound, trying to call him.

  Next second—
