Dream Maker [Rebirth]

Red Leaf Peak.

The moonlight is bright and clear, and the sea of ​​clouds floats and sinks.

Maple leaves rustled and Zhan Fengduo tinkled.

The lights in the room were flickering, and Ji Yuanchen stood bent over in front of the couch, taking the last few silver needles from the top of Lu Ci's forehead.

The art of marriage and longevity is over.

After taking out the last silver needle, Ji Yuanchen finally stood up straight and exhaled a long breath.

This technique is extremely complicated and very easy to change, even if there is a slight difference in the process, not only Luci will surely die, but even Ji Wuzhou will not be able to keep it.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong after all.

only……

Ji Yuanchen thought silently, and looked down at Ji Wuzhou who was still in a coma.

When the child wakes up, I'm afraid some blame will be unavoidable.

But the so-called trade-offs are like this, you can't have both, and you have no choice as a father.

At this moment, a muffled hum came from the side, Ji Yuanchen looked up, and saw Lu Ci was frowning tightly, as if he was very uncomfortable.

The next moment, he slowly opened his eyes, his blurred gaze stayed on the roof for a moment, then turned to Ji Yuanchen very quickly, and said in a daze, "How can I..."

Ji Yuanchen said calmly: "It's the remnant of longevity, you still have the last hour."

After that, he looked at Ji Wuzhou again, and said: "He will wake up in half an hour, and you can use the remaining half hour to say goodbye."

Lu Ci never expected that such a thing would happen, for a split second he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

It is true that he regrets not being able to say goodbye, but right now, if he really wants to say goodbye to Ji Wuzhou face to face before he dies, wouldn't it be more painful than dying directly?

Seeing that Ji Yuanchen turned around to leave, Lu Ci hurriedly said, "Uncle."

Ji Yuanchen turned his head, Lu Ci said: "Uncle promised to erase his memory earlier, you won't break your promise?"

This time, Ji Yuanchen did not show the same resistance as before, but solemnly promised: "Once your life energy is exhausted, I will immediately erase his memory, and I will never give him a chance to be sad .”

Lu Ci nodded, this was the only consolation for him now, Ji Yuanchen's guarantee was like giving him a reassurance.

Ji Yuanchen didn't say any more, turned his head, went straight to the door, opened it and left, leaving the room to the two of them.

For the next half an hour, Lu Ci sat on the couch with his knees hugged and his back against the wall, imagining countless ways to say goodbye, but he denied them one by one, and it went on and on again.

The drip in the corner of the wall keeps ticking, reminding him that time is passing by little by little. In the end, he actually started to dislike himself a little: I'm going to die, why do I still look forward and backward like this?

So when half an hour was about to run out, he finally made up his mind——

That's it, nothing to be afraid of.

……

Ji Wuzhou's waking up was no different from that of Lu Ci. When his brows were slightly frowned, Lu Ci had already keenly caught the change, and immediately leaned forward and said, "Are you awake?"

Ji Wuzhou's complexion was still pale, his long eyelashes trembled slightly and then slowly opened, and he met Lu Ci's earnest gaze at a glance, but the dryness in his throat made him unable to say much for the time being, so he could only smile haggardly: "Um."

Looking around, he quickly recognized where it was, and he leaned on the bed with a little doubt to get up, but was pushed back by Lu Ci's shoulders: "Don't get up, answer me a few questions first .”

Ji Wuzhou was already weak, so he had to lie down again after being pressed by Lu Ci, and nodded blankly.

Lu Ci handed the stack of yellowed old papers in his hand to his eyes: "You took these from the box in my utility room, didn't you?"

Ji Wuzhou took a closer look and quickly recognized what it was, but he never expected that he would be subjected to such torture just after waking up, so he was stunned for a long time before softly saying: "...Yes."

Lu Ci asked again: "The wine in your wine cellar is made according to these, isn't it?"

All the recipes for wine making have been captured, and the wine obviously cannot be covered up, so Ji Wuzhou had no choice but to admit: "Yes."

Lu Ci continued to ask: "Your wine shop is opened for me, and it is opened on the east coast to wait for me, isn't it?"

Ji Wuzhou was almost unavoidable by the pressing question, so he simply said: "Yes."

Lu Ci took a deep breath, and finally said directly with a beating heartbeat: "Do you like me?"

Ji Wuzhou suddenly opened his eyes wide, and was so surprised by this straightforward question that he almost wondered if Lu Ci had been stimulated by something, and couldn't help but slowly raised his hand to touch Lu Ci's forehead.

Lu Ci pulled his hand down and squeezed it tightly, frowning and eagerly asked: "Say it."

That fiery gaze seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, Ji Wuzhou felt that his heart was burning hot suddenly, his Adam's apple couldn't help rolling up and down, all hesitation disappeared in an instant, and all that remained was determination and determination: "Yes."

The frowning brows were slowly loosened, Lu Ci seemed to have suddenly unloaded a heavy burden, and the eyes staring at Ji Wuzhou turned red in an instant.

The next moment, he suddenly bent down without hesitation, and kissed Ji Wuzhou's lips tightly!

The kiss came unexpectedly, Ji Wuzhou felt the blood rushing to the top of his head in an instant!

But he was only stunned for a moment, then immediately raised his hand and clasped the back of Lu Ci's head and responded eagerly. Taking advantage of the situation, he sat up and turned to the guest, and tried his best to deepen the kiss until he pressed Lu Ci against the wall. , protecting the back of his head with one hand, while the other tightly held his wrist and pressed it against the wall, making him unable to move.

Lips and tongue hooked, breath intertwined.

Time seems to be infinitely elongated as if stagnant, and the dim candlelight outlines a room full of tenderness, dyeing the corners of the eyes and brows with affection.

However, in this passionate and lingering kiss, Ji Wuzhou suddenly tasted a little salty.He opened his eyes in doubt, only to see that tears were overflowing from Lu Ci's closed eyes one after another, sliding down his cheeks in a steady stream.

"What's the matter?" Ji Wuzhou hurriedly backed away a little, raised his hand and gently wiped away his tears with his thumb, and asked softly while holding his cheek.

Lu Ci shook his head slowly in his palm, tears still rolling down unstoppably, but he choked up with a smile and said, "I'm just... very happy."

Ji Wuzhou's heart softened all of a sudden, and he stretched out his hand to embrace him and patted him lightly: "I'm also very happy, I...couldn't this be a dream?"

Lu Ci raised his hand and gently pinched his arm: "Does it hurt?"

In fact, he didn't use any strength at all, but Ji Wuzhou still smiled lightly: "It hurts."

Lu Ci muffled: "Then it's not a dream."

Ji Wuzhou nodded against his temples: "That's right, how dare I have such a beautiful dream."

Lu Ci couldn't help being amused, then sniffed, leaning on Ji Wuzhou's arms and whispered: "I have something to tell you."

Ji Wuzhou caressed his back, and said softly: "Well, tell me."

Lu Ci's Adam's apple rolled, and he managed to suppress his emotions for a while, and then said calmly: "When you left the island, you said that you would pick me up from the shore in the future. I was very happy, and I look forward to the time passing every day. Hurry up so that I can leave the island earlier and see you sooner."

"But later, other senior brothers and sisters often sent letters back, but you were the only one who didn't have it. I would think again, is it because the Human Continent is too prosperous, and you have already forgotten the secret realm. After all...the secret realm has never been given to you. What good memories did you have?"

"Thinking about it this way, I became very conflicted. On the one hand, I was still looking forward to leaving the island, but on the other hand, I was afraid that when the day came, I would find that you were not there after landing. In the end... I really didn't expect it, and I couldn't make the appointment in the end. It could be me."

Ji Wuzhou listened quietly, the more he listened, the more worried he became, the more uncomfortable he became.

However, he just wanted to say something to comfort him, but unexpectedly, Lu Ci didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and continued as if he was eager to pour out everything: "In the last few days of Gu's suffering, I know that I probably won't be able to leave the continent again. At that time, I suddenly felt—it would be good if you really forgot, so...at least you don’t have to wait on the shore.”

"But... I'm really sorry, I regret that I can't see you again, so I walked for a long, long time in the secret realm, went to many places we have been together, and finally came to Chunmian's side, I don't want to go anymore .”

"I think, that's the place where I first saw you, and it ended there in the end, so it's a beginning and an end..."

Ji Wuzhou's heart ached so much that he held Lu Ci's arm tighter, lowered his head and kissed his forehead deeply, and said: "It's all over, we don't have to wait any longer."

Hearing this, Lu Ci's already stopped tears could not help but burst out again.

--no.

— There is no past... and there is no future.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, forcing himself not to think too deeply, then forcefully forced a smile, retreated a little from Ji Wuzhou's arms, lowered his head, took Fu Ling off his fingers, and pulled Ji Wuzhou over. Wu Zhou's hand put it on for him.

"What is this for?" Ji Wuzhou asked in a daze.

Lu Cihong smiled and said: "There should be a token of love, I don't have anything else to give you, just let it be."

Ji Wuzhou looked at Fu Ling in his hand, and was at a loss for a while: "But I... I'm not prepared..."

"No need," Lu Ci raised his eyes and looked straight into his eyes, his burning eyes were full of nostalgia, "you have given me enough."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his eyes again, and his voice couldn't help being choked again: "I just hope... When I'm not around, it can accompany you for me."

Even if you forget about me and everything about me, at least it will not disappear and will always be by your side for me.

Ji Wuzhou has always been sensitive, the moment he heard this, he frowned subconsciously: "Did something happen?"

Lu Ci quickly shook his head: "No, nothing happened."

He denied it too eagerly, but it immediately made Ji Wuzhou even more suspicious. Recalling the various abnormal behaviors of Luci since he woke up, he suddenly had a guess in his mind: "Did my father say something to you?" ?”

Before Lu Ci denied it again, he turned his head decisively and shouted to the door: "Father!——"
