Shimmer Forest

The train rose slowly and flew further into the sky.Looking out of the window, the sea of ​​clouds was surging under the train, and the thick clouds rolled with waves, glowing with a faint silver light.In the black sky, the sea of ​​stars is vast and shining.The colorful stars gathered into spiral galaxies, rotating leisurely; the smeared nebula rendered the colors of the stars, slowly fading away like still smoke.Brilliant and bright colors filled the vast and silent space.

The train slowly drove to the center of the galaxy, and countless stars flew past the window, forming colorful rays of light.Being in it is like entering a time tunnel, as long as you pass through here, you can reach that long and strange time.

The world in front of me is gradually brightening, like the transition from night to day.There was a faint golden light in front of the train, and the light slowly advanced, smudged at one end of the sky, dispelling the night, and then gradually dyed the clear blue color.

The train shook slightly and then stopped. Wu Hao was still in shock and couldn't recover, so he was dragged off the train by Su Jin unceremoniously.

In front of you is the bright world in the clouds, with large groups of white clouds spreading under your feet, which is soft and soft to step on.There are also clouds floating leisurely in the sky, and the golden light renders the white clouds with dazzling colors.

The body becomes as light as a cloud, even if there is nothing under the feet, it can still shuttle in the sky.They turned into birds with spread wings, taking the sky as the sea and white clouds as companions, soaring freely.

Wu Hao quickly adapted to this feeling with his naturally strong and rough nerves.The two kept changing various poses in the air.Sometimes I flap my arms like a bird flapping its wings, sometimes I lie leisurely in mid-air, and sometimes I use the white clouds as a platform to jump back and forth between several clouds.

After getting a little tired from playing, Su Jin remembered the purpose of coming here, so he took Wu Hao, who was still full of interest, and hurried to the depths of the white clouds.

At the end of the sea of ​​clouds, there are islands floating in the sky.The island is full of vitality, and the clear waterfall hangs down from the floating island.In the deep forest of the island, a piece of golden light shone like a dazzling sun, making people unable to open their eyes.

After entering the island, Wu Hao discovered that the light came from the fruit on the tree.There are huge and transparent trees here, like works of art carved out of ice, but they are lighter and more transparent than ice.Among the dense foliage grows small, golden fruits.The fruit exudes a strong light, looking from a distance, it is like a galaxy, shining brightly.

"Wow, what is this?" While Wu Hao was amazed, he stood on tiptoe and reached out to pick it, wanting to see what the shiny fruit looked like.

"Stop!" Su Jin slapped his arm off unceremoniously, with a hint of anger on his brows: "That's an immature 'fruit', don't touch it."

"Huh? You didn't say just now..." Wu Hao rubbed his red arm, with a look of grievance on his face: "Study, can you hit me softly next time, it hurts too much."

"I can't." Su Jin refused decisively and simply. Seeing his aggrieved look, he couldn't help laughing, and patted his shoulder comfortingly: "Okay, okay, look what this is ?”

As he spoke, he gently lifted a fruit on the branch.Wu Hao looked suspiciously, and carefully observed the things he held carefully in his palm.

It was a golden transparent fruit in the shape of irregular water droplets.The color is bright, transparent and pure, with a warm light.

"It's amber!" Wu Hao shouted happily, looking excitedly at the vast sea of ​​trees glowing with excitement: "There are so many ambers here!"

"No." Su Jin seemed to know his reaction a long time ago, and shook his head with a smile.

Wu Hao looked at him and looked around suspiciously.Although these looked like high-quality amber, each was crystal clear, and the insects wrapped in them were also very fresh and complete.But real amber doesn't sparkle or feel warm to the touch.All that aside, the fact that amber grows on trees is amazing enough.

After thinking for a while, he asked curiously, "It's not amber, so what are these?"

"This is 'egg'." Su Jin put his index finger on his lips, and the corners of his raised lips exuded a mysterious atmosphere.

"Egg?" Wu Hao looked at the amber in his hand, and then at him, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Follow me." Su Jin led him to fly to the center of the tree, carefully walking through the leafy branches.The transparent branches are rendered with a faint golden color by the light of the fruit, continuous and flickering, like the mottled sunlight falling on them.

"Look." Su Jin stopped on a thick branch, squatted down and pointed to the amber growing on it.In the amber was a tiny ant, curled up as if sleeping.

"The 'egg' was still hatching just now." Seeing Wu Hao's doubts, Su Jin explained slowly: "And this is a life that is about to be born."

"Who's up there?" Before Wu Hao could ask, a vigilant voice came from under the tree, interrupting their conversation.

Su Jin froze for a moment, then poked his head out from among the lush branches.There was a child-like person under the tree, looking at him with dangerous eyes. His amber-like golden eyes revealed a dangerous aura.

"What, is he a kid from the Su family?" The coldness and vigilance in the little boy's eyes instantly dissipated, turning into lazy fish eyes.He dug his ears, and said disdainfully, "Why do you come here every year? After such a long time, you should be tired of watching it, right?"

"It's impossible to get tired of looking at it." Su Jin responded with a smile, and simply sat down on the branch, looking down at him: "There is nothing more beautiful than this manor that is pregnant with life."

"Cut." Although the little boy still looked very dissatisfied, he didn't say anything to refute. He just turned away and stopped looking at him.

"You know each other?" Wu Hao listened to the unfathomable conversation between the two, and finally found the time to interject, asking in confusion.He was still muttering in his heart, as expected of Su Jin, the extensive contacts in the other world are really embarrassing.

"Huh? Who is this? Don't bring outsiders into my precious garden." Seeing faces he didn't recognize, the little boy frowned in dissatisfaction. Lazy to ask.

"It's my friend, don't worry, we will be careful not to knock the fruit off." Su Jin said very sincerely as he was accustomed to this.

"No, no, no." The little boy didn't buy it at all, and flew through the branches and leaves to the branch where they were, kicking them all down with both feet unceremoniously.

The faces of the two kissed the ground fiercely, and they fell on the grass in the shape of "big".Su Jin touched his sore nose, and complained dissatisfiedly: "It hurts...we are old friends, can't we just give you some privileges?"

"No—OK—" the boy purposely elongated the volume, and shrugged innocently: "I have the responsibility and obligation to protect their lives and not allow any potential threats to exist."

"That—" Wu Hao touched the forehead that was bruised, and asked Su Jin, who was depressed, in a low voice: "Who is this arrogant guy?"

"Stinky boy, who are you calling arrogant?" No matter how small the voice was, the boy asked lazily, and soon puffed up his chest again, with a smug look on his face: "I am this Keeper of the garden."

Before Wu Hao could ask any more questions, the boy withdrew his lazy demeanor, became serious, and looked at Su Jin seriously: "You know, this place is beyond life and death, and it is a place of reincarnation. stay too long."

Su Jin wanted to say something, but just as he opened his mouth, he vaguely saw the approaching train from the clouds not far away.The boy easily picked up the collars of the two of them, and threw them directly into the train: "Okay, ok, stop talking nonsense, the train is just here, where did you come from?"

After speaking, he didn't care about the reaction of the two of them, so he slammed the train door shut with a bang, and stood on the small island to watch them go away.

"So... who the hell is this arrogant brat..." Wu Hao, who was forcibly driven away, was still at a loss, turned his head to look at Su Jin with a regretful face, and asked depressedly.

"He's not a brat, at least a few hundred years older than you." Su Jin sat down on the seat resentfully, and lazily explained: "He's the one who takes care of those 'eggs'."

"Egg? Amber?" Wu Hao was a little puzzled from the beginning, and asked with a puzzled face.

"What a pity—" As if losing patience with his slowness, Su Jin completely ignored him, just propped his chin and looked out of the window, and said to himself: "I wanted to watch it together, life's" born'--"

The roar of the engine drowned out his soft whispers.The high-speed train passed through the vast sea of ​​clouds and the universe, and brought them back to their familiar hometown.

Su Jingran seemed to know the time and place where they got off the car, and waited by the side of the field.Seeing the two of them coming back, they greeted with a smile: "Hey, welcome back."

Wu Hao couldn't help sighing in his heart, as expected of father and son, although their personalities are very different, their powers are both so miraculous.

"How's it going, are you having fun?" Su Jingran asked with a smile while ruffling Su Jin's hair vigorously.

"It's okay." Although Su Jin's tone was a little dissatisfied, he didn't avoid it.On the other hand, Wu Hao slapped his hand away involuntarily, stretched out his hand and pulled Su Jin away, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't touch him casually, nerds are mine!"

"Brat, do you dare to talk back to your father-in-law?" Su Jingran was still smiling, but there were veins on his forehead. He pushed Su Jin behind him, and stretched out his hand to hold Wu Hao's head, not to let him go. He approached: "Don't underestimate adults!"

"Damn it, I don't recognize you as my elder!" Wu Hao waved his arms with all his teeth and claws, but even if he was as strong as him, he couldn't match Su Jingran's strength.Su Jin watched the excitement from the sidelines, and then sighed helplessly after a long time: "I said you two, enough is enough—"

Before he finished speaking, he was attracted by Wu Hao's pocket.There is something there, slightly emitting a golden light.

"Hey? What did you bring back?" Su Jingran obviously noticed something strange, and asked suspiciously.

"Ah." As if he suddenly remembered something, Wu Hao took out the glowing gem and handed it to everyone: "It's the amber I picked up by the river before."

"I picked it up by the river?" Su Jingran was surprised, picked up the stone from his hand, and observed it carefully: "That guy is too careless..."

"Well, forget it." Said a few words to himself, Su Jingran covered the amber in his palm, and gently closed his eyes: "Let me hatch it."

Before Wu Hao understood the meaning of his words, he lightly recited the spell.The light came out from between his fingers, becoming more and more dazzling and intense.

When the light faded, a butterfly quietly appeared from Su Jingran's loosened palm.It was a blue butterfly with golden lines on its gorgeous wings.It shook off all the golden debris, danced against the wind, and danced into the blue sky.

"These little lives, after a short life, will sleep in the amber, and when the spring comes, they will be resurrected again, and the cycle will start again."

It is tiny, bright, shocking, the cycle of life.
