Back to the Future 1999: Raining at the Same Time

Leaving, huh?

Before meeting Chen Xi, he had never thought that he would have the opportunity to leave the hospital and leave this place.

However, looking up along the hose on his arm, he saw various colored IV bottles jingling on the bracket beside him. With a body like this, how could he expect to be with Chen Xi?

As if he had made up his mind, Lead Glass hugged the book on his lap tightly and said:

"Thank you, but..."

"Shh-"

He took out the prepared popcorn and stuffed it into Lead Glass's mouth, interrupting the spell while pushing the golden fruit into her mouth.

"I understand your concerns, but what I'm asking now is whether Hilma wants to join us and embark on the next journey with us."

Chen Xi's eyes were sincere and moving under the sunshine. The hand holding hers was broad and strong, and the warm touch passed through her body, bringing a sense of security.

I wanted to lower my head to avoid his eyes, but I was caught by some kind of magic. Even though I still wanted to refuse, when I opened my mouth, I somehow changed my words into:

"Please, please take me with you. Mr. Chenxi."

"it is good."

“Iru al la oriento de Eden kun tio”

As the spell was chanted, the golden light gradually engulfed the two of them. When Lead Glass opened his eyes again, he found himself in an ancient building, with faint golden light surrounding him.

Although the scenery was ordinary, I felt as if my spirit was being slowly torn apart. With some effort, I kept my eyes open. To my left and right were steps leading to the top, like a bell ringing forever.

The bells echoed, and the sound they made seemed like a call from the gods. The more Lead Glass listened, the heavier his eyelids felt, and his consciousness seemed to be merging into this world.

"Are you ok?"

A warm hand stroked the shoulder, and Lead Glass woke up instantly, as if being pulled out from the bottom of the lake in his dream. The moment Chen Xi's voice entered his mind, all the feelings just now gradually faded from his body like a dream.

"Chenxi, where is this?"

"This is my wasteland, and it's also where you'll live and recuperate from now on."

Smiling, he pushed the lead glass out of the Wasteland Ancient Hall and took her to visit other places, while thinking to himself:

"Youmeng." (The name given to the lord of dreams after awakening)

"What happened just now? I asked you to protect this wasteland, not to indiscriminately attack everyone except me!"

In a wasteland behind Chen Xi, a small dark cloud began to gather and it started to rain.

"How dare you cry!"

"There really isn't a single worry-free kid. From now on, only guests will be allowed into the wilderness, understand?"

The stars on Luoyue Lake in the distance twinkled, and Chen Xi sighed helplessly.

Ever since I entrusted the wasteland to this guy, he has been quiet. He could have conveyed it with just one sentence, but now...

"Forget it, I'll give you a promotion."

Pushing the lead glass to the side of Luoyue Lake, Chen Xi quietly cut off his left little finger with the wind blade and sank into the lake.

He threw it into the lake through the blind spot of the lead glass, and at the same time looked at the granulation tissue gradually growing on his left hand, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chenxi, this place is so beautiful."

"Yeah, I was also shocked when I first came here."

There is no concept of weather in the wilderness, but time is not chaotic here. Now, it is sunset, and the afterglow is scattered on the lake, stretching the shadows of the two people in the distance, creating a harmonious and beautiful scene like the ending of a movie.

"Here, your medicine."

"This is?"

"Popcorn popcorn."

"But I hope the mixture of dyed pigweed, water chestnuts, allspice, and millet powder won't make it taste too bad."

Taking the popcorn, Lead Glass's eyes kept moving back and forth between the "snack" in his hand and Chen Xi's serious expression, and finally he burst out laughing.

"Thank you, thank you Chenxi."

"What's so funny!"

Chen Xi cursed with a smile, a little confused.

"Nothing, I just feel that I am very lucky to have met Mr. Chen Xi."

Lead Glass looked at the moon sinking into the lake in the distance, a sincere smile in his eyes. As if responding to her feelings, or perhaps apologizing, the blood-red smudge by the lake disappeared, and the distant moon began to brighten, gradually rising from the bottom of the lake, carrying with it the stars around it, and letting it drift quietly to the lakeshore, drifting to Lead Glass's feet...

After settling Lead Glass to sleep in a small hut in the wilderness and instructing Youmeng to keep an eye on her and inform him immediately if anything happened, Chen Xi left the wilderness.

He adjusted the time in the wasteland when he went in, so only about ten minutes had actually passed in the outside world. Of course, when he came out, he must have adjusted the time back to normal.

He originally thought that he would be stopped by Anya the moment he came out, but in fact she was just sitting quietly under the tree where Chen Xi changed clothes, leaning against it as if she was asleep.

Chen Xi did not disturb her, but walked over and sat next to her. Suddenly, Anya leaned over, rested her head on his shoulder, hugged one of his arms tightly, and her body was trembling slightly.

"sorry."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Uh-huh……"

Anya didn't answer any more, but hugged Chen Xi's arm even tighter, and leaned against him like a wounded deer.

Chen Xi roughly guessed what had happened. He stretched out his hand and gestured from his heart to his kidneys. As he moved, Anya's body curled up tighter and tighter, and her head lowered lower and lower. She clearly wanted to get closer, but she only dared to hug one arm.

"Don't...don't hate me."

The tighter his arms hugged, the lighter his body became, until the arm, the arm that he had cut off and had grown back, slipped out of his arms.

Anya knelt beside Chen Xi, tears falling one by one.

"Don't leave me, okay."

I am so stupid, I can't do anything right. I am so stupid, staying by his side only brings him harm. I am so stupid, so stupid that even in this state, I still hope to stay by his side.

"fool."

The warmth of her body hitting her head brought her back to her wandering thoughts. Chen Xi hugged her tightly, gently patting Anya's back, like a beast owner comforting a small animal.

He rubbed his chin against the other's cold forehead.

"Do you remember the first thing I said to you when we were together?"

He paused, as if asking Anya to recall, but she was just sobbing softly in his arms.

"We are a family."

After pinching her little face, Chen Xi gently held the girl's face in front of him and looked straight into her eyes.

"This isn't just talk. No matter what happens, we will never be apart. We are a family forever."

"Will you always know?"

"This departure has taught me something. Perhaps I can truly stay with you, the long-lived Lusarji, for a very long time."

"Our story hasn't even begun yet, so don't think about stopping now."

"Bang!"

A loud bang came from behind the tree.

"This is punishment, punishment for having wild thoughts."

Although it was a punishment, soon, another kiss landed on the bulging forehead.

"So, stop saying such stupid things."

There was no answer, but Anya threw Chen Xi to the ground and pressed on him like a hostess. She hugged him tightly as if she wanted to rub him into her body.

Chenxi also has Daowu, Anma, and Arcana, but when Anya decided to leave the forest with him, he was the only one left in her world.

Understanding Anya, he hugged her tightly as well, and the two of them sank into the wasteland together.
