Xueba at the same table from the future

Chapter 232 Now Volume [-]: The Nameless Empty Monument
July eighteenth.

The red clouds dyed half of the sky red, like a big fire, devouring the weeds on the embankment.

In the middle of the empty green grass, in front of the boy and the girl stood a newly erected tombstone without a name.

"This is a nameless empty monument." Chen Mu took Li Xinxi's soft hand.

"Why don't you write your name on it?"

"Fool, there are too many people, how can I write."

Chen Mu lovingly scratched the nose of the petite girl next to her, then lowered her body to wipe the surface of the tombstone.

"Want to hear a story about the future? Our Xixi—"

"It's a tragedy that you are willing to let Mu Mu record it with a tombstone."

"You know, I don't like tragedies, and I don't want tragedies to leave traces in my heart."

"But someone has to remember these things, even if it's me alone."

"Then... Mumu, tell me, I want to bear it more than I hate this kind of thing."

The petite girl quietly leaned her small head on the boy's shoulder, and moved her eyes to the sunset in the sky.

"The clouds in the sky this evening are very beautiful. They are red, like a big fire."

"This future story also stems from an unprovoked fire..."

In this world, there is always a group of people who are willing to go against the whole industry.

Because of work, hobbies, they like to gather together in a certain corner.

"The fire destroyed them?"

"No—" Chen Mu's response was quite affirmative.

Li Xinxi pointed to the sunset glow in the sky, with a little doubt in her eyes.

"But Gouzi, you insist on clearing the weeds for several hours, just to erect such a small tombstone."

"Look, Xixi—" Chen Mu didn't answer immediately, but squatted down and picked up the grass roots on the ground.

"Although the surrounding weeds have been pulled out just now, the grass roots are still there."

"With the growth rate of weeds in summer, it won't be long before the place will be covered with weeds again."

"At that time, this tombstone will also be swallowed up, and it will be integrated into nature like a weed."

"Into—?" Li Xinxi tilted her head.

"I'm even more curious about the story Mu Mu told you."

"In this case, I would actually prefer to add a little magic color."

"On this day, seven years later, a demon with teeth and claws broke into the land of elves."

"He's pushing the cart, it's full of gas, a car full of gas."

"This is the source of the ignition? Why didn't anyone stop it at the time?"

The little squirrel followed Chen Mu's example and squatted down to pick up the weeds, and wiped the empty monument in front of it.

"There are many reasons, of course..."

"The most important reason is that no one would speculate about maliciousness in a place like this."

Chen Mu picked up a sharp stone from the side, and began to carve shallow white marks on the empty stele.

"It happened so quickly that the entire forest was on fire in an instant."

"The elves live on the big tree, staring blankly at the fire spreading from top to bottom."

"I have a question..." Li Xinxi interrupted Chen Mu's speech.

"Since it's an elf, why doesn't it have wings?"

"Only elves in fairy tales have wings. It's a magical story."

Chen Mu pinched Li Xinxi's cheek beside her, and continued to add calm words.

"This big tree has a dense crown, intertwined branches, and rugged winding."

"Is it hard to escape?" Li Xinxi was moved by it, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

"It's actually not very difficult, because the elves are very agile."

"But it happened so suddenly..."

"Thick smoke covered the sky, and the sky was filled with black fog."

"The green bodies of the elves were dyed black, and they stumbled and fell down."

"They are so pitiful—" Li Xinxi shed tears.

"Are there any elves alive?"

"Many are still alive, and many are alive now."

At this point, Chen Mu suddenly put his hands together and bowed devoutly.

"This kind of thing, not about other factors, just because of what they guard."

"What are the elves guarding? That big tree?" Li Xinxi's voice trembled.

"In this ancient tree, there is a pure and flawless heart."

"That is the most precious treasure in this world."

"a heart?"

Li Xinxi suppressed her sadness and looked at the little heart shape carved on the tombstone where Chen Mu was.

"Is this heart well protected in the end?"

"No..." Chen Mu shook his head: "The devil is too cruel and too powerful."

"This originally pure and flawless heart was also torn into pieces, leaving only a little bit of fire."

"Like the weeds on the ground?" Li Xinxi stared at the grass roots carefully.

"Heart, it will recover, it's like a weed."

"Yes, the wild fire is endless, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates."

Chen Mu smiled, then gently stroked Li Xinxi's little head next to her.

"After telling such a [-]% magical story, Xixi, you really believe it."

"I believe it, as long as it's Mu Mu, I believe it."

Li Xinxi stood up with Chen Mu holding hands, and looked at the red clouds in the sky in the distance.

The girl's voice was in a trance, and also trembling a little.

"Is there any way to avoid this fire?"

"This fire is in the future."

"Everything in the future can be changed."

"I do not know."

"I can not do it."

"I"

"There will be changes, and there will be expectations."

Li Xinxi looked down at the empty stele that had already been completed.

On the small tombstone, deep and light white traces are engraved.

"There are... 36..."

"That's 36 living lives."

"That's 36 people who are dedicated to guarding."

"In the end, the tinder was left behind."

"What they insist on is something beautiful."

"It's a beautiful thing."

"What they love is beautiful things."

"It's a beautiful thing."

"That's all right..."

Li Xinxi reached out to grab Chen Mu's arm, and tiptoed to wipe Chen Mu's forehead.

"Mu Mu, can you tell me the name of this forest at the end?"

"Sorry, I can't do it."

"What about the name of the demon? This demon is really hateful."

"Sorry, I can't do that either."

"Then... what is the name of this big tree?"

Li Xinxi pointed to the new weeds in front of the tomb.

"Is this a big tree? You can talk about it..."

Chen Mu also lowered his head and glanced at the ground, then raised his head to look at Hongxia in the sky.

"Since this is a magical story about the existence of demons and elves, the name of this big tree should also have some magical color."

The boy led the girl and stood with his back, letting the evening sun gradually devour the tombstone and weeds.

"The name of this decaying tree."

"It's called KyoAni."
