No.

Bai Ze's voice was cold and soft, as if it was independent of this chaotic world.

I know everything, but I can't do anything about it.

"You should have died under my sword long ago. This world doesn't need a second law."

But now, Yuan, you can't trap him in this false future.

Li Muhan felt a force supporting his body, and then slowly moved upwards towards the broken blood moon.

Listen to me, kid.

It’s not that you don’t have a past.

You are not without the present.

It’s not like you don’t have the power to change the future.

"Beast, you have trapped me once before with the Eternal Bedrock, but this time, you are helpless."

Yuan's voice came from below, but she didn't seem to intend to stop this force from continuing to push Li Muhan's body.

Look, your past.

So Li Muhan saw the children whispering under the opera house, and he was not standing in the spotlight because he was just a substitute.

But now, the children turned their heads, looked at Li Muhan, smiled and pulled him to the center of the spotlight, and circled around him holding hands.

"We gave you the most important thing."

The boys put their hands on Li Muhan's body.

"So where are you going?"

Li Muhan asked with some fear. Although he could only watch them playing in a dark corner, he didn't want the children to leave.

Because each of them is themselves, and each of them is Li Muhan.

"We are leaving~ to the world where there is no pain~"

"But what should I do alone... I, I don't want to go through those pains, those experiments, those tortures... Can you take me with you..."

The children stepped back one after another, and then Li Muhan saw him, the boy who had given everything to him.

"Mom said that there is only happiness in that world, no pain, but only good children can go there, and you are not a good child."

"I, I am... I am very good, I have always been in the corner, I did nothing..."

"You have to be a good kid to come to us."

The boy held out his hand.

"Make a promise. When you become a good child, we will come to pick you up and take you to the world that your mother talked about."

"I don't want to... I don't want to, no, I want to go with you, I want my mother too..."

"Mom doesn't want to see you now~ You are a bad boy~"

"Bad boy~"

I'm a bad boy...

But only bad kids can take the other path.

Bai Ze's voice rang in his ears.

[She is lying to you! Go with them! Go find your mother! Your mother is waiting for you! ]

Yuan's voice also sounded in my ears.

[You are going to die again, Li Muhan]

Loki's voice...

[Nice to meet you, dear detective. Or should I say, long time no see~]

Moriarty, Mu Ya's voice.

"It's time for us to go. This body and this name will be yours from now on. You must be a good child. Pinky promise..."

Li Muhan cried and made pinky promises with the boys one by one, and then watched their spotlights disappear one by one, until she was the only one left.

[Look, you listened to the beast, and ended up being abandoned. How ridiculous]

No one has abandoned you, child, your past has already appeared, now, look up and see your present.

Li Muhan stopped crying and looked up. In front of him was a broken blood moon, which represented his true love.

[Dead, she is dead, hahahahaha]

Whether she survives or not, child, is up to you to decide.

Li Muhan slowly stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the fragment of the blood moon.

[Hey, I can give you a quick death, Li Muhan, why do you have to continue struggling? ]

Because he should struggle.

[No, he should stop here and go to sleep. ]

The time has not yet come.

[The time has already come.]

"Shut up, everyone!"

Li Muhan was angry. He didn't want these people to keep arguing in his mind, buzzing like flies.

"What do you think of me?! You are paralyzed! You like to give instructions on life, right?! I have been taught a lesson so many times! When I was in elementary school, junior high school, high school, and college, that bald guy also taught me! It's still the same after I joined the Special Management Bureau! A dog passing by would bark at me! But these people are my past! None of these people! Have ever given up on me!"

Li Muhan's hand suddenly stretched out towards the blood moon above his head.

"I've had enough. If you want to play, go play by yourselves! I just want to... catch..."

At this moment, a slender, white hand stretched out from the blood moon.

"I just want to catch her, because from the beginning, she is the only one I want to protect!!"

Li Muhan suddenly grabbed the cold little hand, and then the whole world began to tremble, and all time was going back.

"I'm not that great!! I can't save everyone! I'm not a hero!! I don't owe anyone! No one can define me! I'm a fucking human being, or not a human being, it doesn't matter! I just want to hold this hand!!!"

...You've got it, kid, and no one can stop you, so now... go back.

You can't leave

Yuan's voice suddenly became extremely cold.

You can't go anywhere

He can go anywhere.

【Beast...I will kill you.】

I would have died a long time ago...Yuan, but thank you for giving me a...quick death.

Li Muhan turned around suddenly and saw the huge white lion with antlers also looking up at him.

We have never met, but I can see your future.

Yuan's knife slowly raised up and she stood beside the white lion.

[Your time has come long ago, beast, you can't hide from me this time]

I can see your future, it's bright, so go ahead, kid, and may you never suffer again in this life.

The moment the sword flashed, Li Muhan's consciousness was also shocked by the light.

After a burst of tinnitus, Li Muhan quickly noticed someone holding his hand tightly.

The voice of calling also came from my ears.

"Reply, answer me! Are you stupid? I'm sorry! I won't hit you anymore! I won't hit you anymore! I won't suck your blood anymore!! I'm sorry! Don't be an idiot!"

Li Muhan slowly opened his eyes and found himself standing on the top of a mountain. In front of him was the dilapidated temple where Yuan was.

Xia Yue was holding her hands tightly, and Hati, Suzaku, and Fenyuan were also looking at her.

He had never entered the dilapidated temple in the snow and wind, and everything happened at the moment when he stepped onto the top of the mountain after the second trial.

It's all false.

“Li Muhan…” Xia Yue looked at Li Muhan with tears in her eyes: “I’m sorry… I didn’t know, I didn’t know you would really be beaten into an idiot, I’m sorry… I’m sorry… Even if you become an idiot, I will still marry you… I… Eh…?”

Xia Yue's sobbing words were interrupted halfway. Li Muhan half-knelt on the ground and hugged the girl's petite body tightly in his arms.

"Thank you......."

"...?"

Xia Yue was stunned. Hasn’t this... become an idiot?

"Thank you for using your body to protect me until the very end. Even if you were broken into pieces, your moonlight has always kept me warm... Thank you, my little moon... I love you."

"......"

Xia Yue was stunned at first, and then cried even harder. She did not hug Li Muhan, but turned to look at Hati with tears in her eyes.

"What should I do? What should I do? He's stupid! He's stupid! He's become mentally retarded! What should I do?"

Hati covered his mouth and wanted to laugh, but felt that it was not appropriate to laugh in this situation.

Although he didn't know what happened, he must have experienced something during the ten minutes that Li Muhan was in a daze.

Zhuque pinched his chin and fell into deep thought. After a while, he said, "Little ghost, did you see something just now?"

Li Muhan said nothing, but just hugged Xia Yue tightly. He wanted to slow down... The future he saw was too despairing.

To others, he seemed really stupid.

"I guess there's something wrong with his brain. Now he's turned into a giant baby."

Fen Yuan pushed up his glasses and analyzed.

And at this moment, the small figure beside Fen Yuan fell to the ground on the snow with a thud.

Everyone quickly looked at Bai Qing.

Bai Qing was seen lying on the ground with cloudy eyes and weak breathing.

Seeing this, Li Muhan rushed over and gently held Bai Qing in his arms.

"Ugh! He's stupid! He can't even recognize me! I'm here! Idiot!"

Xia Yue chased after him and hugged Li Muhan from behind.

Li Muhan didn't pay attention to Xia Yue for the time being. He looked at Bai Qing, whose eyes were distracted, and said softly, "Sir Bai Ze... is that you?"

Zhuque also quickly squatted down. She touched Bai Qing's head, then touched her chest, then frowned and looked at Li Muhan.

"Since you already know that she is the incarnation of Bai Ze, then you did experience something just now, right kid."

“…” Li Muhan nodded.

"......You..." Bai Qing turned his head with all his strength and looked at Li Muhan.

"I'm back............"

"Master Bai Ze...thank you for saving me..."

Li Muhan could tell from Zhuque's expression that Bai Ze was probably beyond saving.

".......Don't...give up...child...The past is indeed...hard to look back on, but...you can't abandon it...and you have...something in you that prevents the past from affecting you anymore...Think about it...Li Muhan...think about...something you have gained...along the way..."

Li Muhan held Bai Qing's little hand tightly, and at this moment Xia Yue also realized that something was wrong.

But her brain worked slowly, and had only just reached the stage of "Li Muhan does not seem to have become mentally retarded."

"I know... Lord Bai Ze, I know, I understand..."

Li Muhan's voice was very gentle after he knew that Li Muhan understood what he meant.

Bai Qing's eyes flickered, and then he forced a slight smile.

"...Yuan wanted you to be trapped in the abyss of time forever, but what saved you was your past...and...your present...and now, child...go...show her your...future..."

After saying this, Bai Qing's hand slid down weakly, as if all her strength and hope were lost along with it.

There was a sad serenity on her face and a dying light in her eyes.

In this moment of silence, a ray of light blue light slowly rose from the girl's chest, like the last ray of warmth in her soul, appearing particularly fragile in the cold wind and snow.

The light swayed in the wind, gradually rising, interweaving with the snowflakes in the sky, and finally turning into the shadow of a majestic white lion with deer horns.

The phantom appeared solemn and sacred, standing proudly on the top of the snow-capped mountain. Its eyes were like ancient lighthouses, penetrating the wind and snow and illuminating the blurry road ahead.

Then it let out a long cry.

The sound is not harsh, but rather carries a deep and tragic feeling, like the sound of flowing water in the mountains, touching the heart.

This voice seemed like Bai Qing’s last gift and farewell to this world, using up all his life strength.

At that moment, the wind and snow stopped, and the mountains seemed to understand the meaning of the cry.

All things wake up quietly, giving comfort to sad lives.

New branches break through the soil, the sound of the stream becomes clearer, the grass spreads a lush green, and the flowers bloom as if celebrating the continuation of life.

Everything has returned to its original appearance.

thump--

Shan Gao knelt on the ground.

"Is it over, Master Bai Ze... After all these years, can I finally go find you... Can I finally stop being trapped here..."

The man's face was covered with traces of tears. He looked up at the gradually brightening sky, as if looking for Bai Qing's figure, his voice choked with sobs.

"Shan Gao...I will accompany you on the journey together."

Afterwards, the man never stood up again. His body gradually stiffened and turned into a stone statue, sitting quietly in the sea of ​​blooming flowers.

A tear rolled down Bai Qing's eye, slid down onto the snow and merged with the last snowflakes, but there was a smile of relief on her face.

In the last moments of her life, she once again left all her love and light to the world, just as she had done before.
