People are singing in the tide, but there is no crown
Chapter 184 Goodbye"It is rumored that on the other side of the world, there is a very deep basin where the sun once fell. It has been spewing water for forty years, but no one has dared to explore it until now."
In an abandoned little village, a short old man was telling stories to the little naughty children in front of him who were full of expectation.
Her face was old and kind, her originally golden hair was as dry as weeds, and she was leaning on a cane with one hand, looking helplessly at the clever little ghosts in front of her.
A little girl raised her arms high and asked curiously in a childish voice: "Grandma, how do you know these things?"
"me……"
The old woman was silent for a long time after being asked this question. There were wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and there seemed to be many deep things hidden in her wrinkles.
"Jiujiu is just stupid. Of course, it's because grandma is a powerful resonator. She easily solved the residual elephant outside the village last time."
A little boy stood up and gestured a few times with high spirits, looking very lively.
Suddenly there was laughter in the village.
Looking at these lively children, the old man nodded with satisfaction and walked out of the village alone with his crutches.
Perhaps because she was old, she walked very slowly, stepping over the ruins covered with weeds and crossing the ravines that were so deep that the bottom could be seen, until she stopped in front of a cemetery.
A densely packed tombstones stood before him.
There are no photos on the heavy, black tombstone, so one can only identify the owner by the handwriting.
The tombstone is very new and looks like someone comes to clean it frequently.
The old man walked past each tombstone, and at each one he pulled a wrinkled white flower from his sleeve and placed it in front of it.
She kept mumbling something, as if she was saying some name.
However, it is normal for old people to always like to mutter to themselves as they get older.
There were so many tombstones that the old man walked for a long time before he could get out of the cemetery.
She recalled how she had moved the stones one by one, remembered the names, and carved them on the tombstones.
Wordless silence.
She gasped, looking at the heavy dark clouds gathering in the sky.
It looks like it's going to rain.
She was already too old and couldn't even withstand a rain, but fortunately she was able to survive to this day thanks to her special ability as a plant-resonating person.
She held up her umbrella and looked toward the sky with her aged eyes.
In a trance, a golden light fell from the sky and landed in the valley not far away.
She seemed to have thought of something and was stunned for a long time.
Then a look of joy appeared on her old face, as if she remembered something.
Throwing away his umbrella and without even having time to lean on his walking stick, the old man ran desperately towards the place where the golden light fell.
The rain flowed back toward the sky, and she fell and got up again on the difficult road.
Finally, she stood in front of the valley, covered with wounds, staring blankly at the scene in the valley.
……
The woman opened her eyes and looked at the old man in front of her with confusion.
She seemed to have had a dream.
In her dream, she was pushed off a cliff, fell into the sea, and then fell from the sky.
Strange dream.
She pounded her head but couldn't remember anything and could only stare blankly at the old man in front of her.
"Wanderer——" The old man shouted inexplicably, tears falling uncontrollably.
"Hey, don't cry. Can you tell me where this is?" The woman patted her shoulder and looked at the puddle on the ground.
Her face was reflected in the water.
Black hair, golden eyes, and a hint of fatigue.
"I am... I am Verine! Don't you remember me? Wanderer!" the old man shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Veriney?" The woman shook her head. She had never heard of this name.
"Oh, it's amnesia. It was like this before. How could I have forgotten it..." The old man wiped his tears, showed a wrinkled smile, and tried to explain:
"You are a wanderer, and you are here to save this world that is about to be destroyed!"
"Me...?" The woman looked around the valley. There were collapsed rocks everywhere, and it looked like a dilapidated scene.
"Let's go back to the village first, and then I will tell you slowly." The old man invited.
The woman nodded and followed her.
Along the way, the old man kept chattering, muttering words that the woman could not understand.
From the other party's brief words, the woman still analyzed some useful information.
This is a world called Solaris.
A hundred years ago, the Sorrow came, and natural disasters destroyed most of the world in a short period of time.
But the old man seemed to have survived for some reason, and was lingering under the shadow of a man called Mingshiki.
"I said, please walk slowly, don't rush."
"It's okay, it's okay, huh?" The old man suddenly stopped leaning on his cane.
She turned around and said apologetically, "I ran too fast and I think I took the wrong way back. There is a silent zone ahead. Let's go around it."
"Silent zone?"
"It's the place where powerful afterimages are born. You knew it before... Hey, the silent zone in front of us should have been born not long ago. Let's go around it..."
"Wait a moment." The woman suddenly said, her eyes fixed on the silent area in front of her.
Inexplicably, she felt some familiar fluctuations.
"I want to see it."
As she spoke, she walked alone to the center of the soundless area, stood on the cross mark, and looked around.
Why, my heart is beating all the time.
What on earth is here?
Must have!
There must be something here that he or she is familiar with!
The old man named Veriney told her that she had been here before, in this world.
It's all so... weird.
She wanted to find out what was here.
Perhaps, it could help her who has lost her memory.
The woman stood in the middle of the silent zone, thinking quietly.
Suddenly, a strong wave hit.
Something is coming behind me!
The woman turned around suddenly and bumped into the thing face to face.
Its deep voice pressed close to her and asked:
"You, have you seen my crown?"
For an instant.
The woman's thoughts seemed to be dragged into the abyss.
She stared blankly.
An inexplicable soft feeling forcefully occupied her heart.
Why are tears falling from my eyes?
She doesn't understand.
But at this moment, past memories rushed into her mind rapidly and unreasonably.
Her dull gaze gradually became gentle and full of emotion, like a gust of lonely wind passing by, hiding words that had been there for a long time.
It seemed to be stunned as well.
This powerful remnant stared blankly at the woman in front of it and was hesitant to take any action.
Its ferocious body trembled slightly, revealing a gentleness that was completely different from its momentum.
Is it a memory?
It got you up too, didn't it?
The one without a crown.
In silence, the woman reached out her hand, placed it on the side of its face, and stroked it gently.
She was sobbing and finally spoke as if she had used up all her strength:
"I saw it, Ling An."
