Grave Robbers' Chronicles: I Wish to Follow the Moon into Your Arms

Meteors penetrate the sparse trees, and the moon moves retrograde through the clouds.

The water is so clear that you can count the rocks; the forest is so deep that no one is around and no birds are calling.

The mountain night is deep, the stars are twinkling, everything is silent, only the chirping of insects can be heard.

A faint fragrance floats in the air, a breeze blows, the moonlight is mottled, and the night grows darker.

She rejected everyone's offer to accompany her and returned to the tent.

Zhang Qilin followed her in silently, unwilling to let her sleep alone.

Jiang Nanyue had no choice but to compromise and took out a burner of soul-soothing incense from the space and lit it, then quietly rested her head on Zhang Qilin's arm.

She closed her eyes, but still couldn't feel the slightest bit of sleepiness.

Although my body was very tired, my brain seemed to be kidnapped and I couldn't fall asleep.

Glancing at Zhang Qilin who was already soundly asleep, he took his arm from his waist and gently placed it under the quilt.

I tiptoed, wrapped myself in a coat, and walked out of the warm tent.

Zhang Qilin behind him opened and closed his eyes, but did not stand up.

A bright moon hangs high in the sky, and stars are dotted like pearls inlaid in the deep night sky.

The breeze blows gently, the shadows of the trees sway, and the silent night is filled with peace and tranquility.

Jiang Nanyue slowly walked to the hole in the Zhang family's ancient building, sat down slowly, and swung her legs in the air. She stared at the silent burning fire below in a trance;

The man with black glasses, who was half lying on a big tree, listening to the wind and admiring the moon, noticed her subtle movements as soon as Jiangnan Yue came out.

He jumped lightly to the foot of the tree, walked towards her without slowing down his steps and sat down next to her.

"What's the matter, Miss? You couldn't sleep at night, so you came out to play with me?"

Jiang Nanyue glanced at the black glasses casually. Under the moonlight, she seemed not to care about anything.

The aura around him was filled with indifference, and she was too lazy to even give him the slightest expression.

After a long while, a faint word came out from her throat.

"Blind man, give me a cigarette"

The man still had a cigarette in his mouth, a hint of scarlet flickering in his eyes. He was filled with emotions she couldn't understand.

Hearing this, the lighter made a crisp sound, and he turned his head slightly, lit a cigarette and handed it to her.

In the dim night, his half-closed eyes and brows were blurred by the smoke rising from his fingertips.

She sat quietly, biting her cigarette, her whole body was like the moonlight, making it hard to see clearly;

The man with black glasses lazily raised his eyes to look at her. Her gaze was blurry and she flicked the ash between her fingers, looking thoughtful.

"Why can't you sleep?"

"Um"

“Sometimes I really envy the mute because everyone seems to care about him.

Moonlight, oh, moonlight, how biased it is, it seems like it never shines on me for a moment."

The word "black glasses" is a double entendre, or maybe it's because the moonlight tonight is too dazzling.

Still in the darkness he no longer concealed his lonely and desolate heart.

"How do you know that the moonlight has never shone on you for a moment?"

Jiangnan Yue's hair danced in the breeze as she uttered a few words lightly.

The faint ashes at the fingertips fell into the sky below, like a short-lived meteor looking for its destination.

"Really? Then tell me when."

The man with black glasses leaned close to Jiang Nanyue's face and whispered softly, as if he was afraid of scaring everything around him, which made people feel tender.

"Think for yourself"

Jiang Nanyue held the cigarette between her slender pale fingers, slowly put it to her lips, and took a light puff.

After being silent for a long time, he gently blew out a smoke ring towards the angular face that suddenly came towards him.

Her eyes were filled with a charm in the lazy moonlight, flowing quietly in the night.

The never-extinguished fire deep under their feet illuminates the woman's carelessness in the man's sunglasses and the man's love that comes from nowhere and is deep and lasting.

"Blind man, doesn't your hand hurt?"

The woman woke the man up with a smile, and looked down to see that her finger was burned by the cigarette butt.

"Fuck, it's all because the moonlight is too beautiful tonight."

It was rare for Jiang Nanyue to get a question answered, so she just said "hmm" lightly.

The man with black glasses looked up at the moon, and Tagore's "Stray Birds" flashed through his mind.

There are three thousand floating worlds, and my love has three.

The sun, the moon and you.

The sun is morning, the moon is evening,

Qing is day and night.

The sun and the moon are metaphors, and all entities are you.

After receiving the information from the Gu King who was investigating the situation below, Jiang Nanyue glanced at the man with black glasses lying motionless.

Look at the soil that was released from the space and was collected back at some point in time.

The Gu King has been taken back, and the karmic fire below has been extinguished.

She never believed in human nature and would not fill and burn this evil land.

After they leave, more people will flock in.

Well, she opened Pandora's box, so let her end it.

Black Glasses heard the sound, but acted as if he didn't hear it. He lay quietly without making a sound, secretly staring at the woman's back.

May I be like a star, like a moon, night and night.

Layer after layer of soil poured down, covering up the traces of the Zhang family's ancient building.

All traces were gradually replaced, and the hole was filled up and no longer looked the same as before.

I transplanted some flowers, plants, and trees here, even the fallen leaves were exactly the same. I let it go when it was no longer visible from the outside.

Jiang Nanyue stared at the time and space which was about to dawn, and poked the dead man with black glasses lying beside him.

"Well, what happened, Miss?"

In fact, I could see it clearly through her black glasses and sunglasses, so I just wanted to tease her.

"It's numb, give me a hand"

"good"

The man with black glasses jumped up, stared at Jiangnan Yue who had been busy for most of the night, raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

After pulling the woman up, he squatted and did not stand up.

With skillful gestures, he began to massage her numb and stiff calves to relieve the discomfort in her legs.

After pressing like this for more than ten minutes, Jiang Nanyue quietly thanked the man with black glasses below.

"Thank you, remember to come back early to celebrate the New Year together"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the tent.

The black glasses behind him touched his cheek in the cold dawn.

I was so happy, even the blind me. It turns out that I have a home now, so I have a family now.

Among thousands of lights, is there one that is reserved for me?

Jiang Nanyue entered the tent, took off her coat, and snuggled into Zhang Qilin's warm and soft arms with her slightly cold body.

Zhang Qilin vaguely felt the woman's movements and just tightened his grip.

Whose tobacco smell is on her body? Who is accompanying her all night?

He hugged her out of habit and warmed the woman with his arms.

He knew she was not asleep in his arms, and he also knew she didn't want him to know.

As long as you are willing to come back to me, everything will be fine.

I'm waiting for you here, just for you...
