Chapter 705 (Seven Hundred and Five) Bench
Later, another of her friends also disappeared. Although she was still sad at first, she didn't stop crying. Instead, she directly called the woman and asked her to accompany her to find her little friend under the stars.
Later, the woman also disappeared. Just in the summer, a summer night when the stars are very bright.
That night, the young Tie Hongyan stood under the starry sky, staring blankly at the shining stars for a long time without asking anything. There were people chatting around her, but she didn't hear what they were saying. Some friends were playing games, but she didn't join them.
Since then, as a child, she has never found anyone to look at the stars with her.
Her two friends are blue-armored people, and that woman is also a blue-armored person.
Under the brutal oppression of the Tiecang tribe, some people from the Lan Jia tribe just disappeared without saying a word. Therefore, the legend of people turning into stars has been circulated among the people in blue armor to comfort children. Many children firmly believe that it is true. In this way, some pain that would have appeared did not appear in their young lives. However, people will eventually grow up, and some people with blue armor no longer believe it when they grow up. Others, knowing clearly what the truth is, would rather continue to believe in the legend of people turning into stars because they are unable to change the status quo. However, some of them can't even tell themselves whether choosing to continue to believe has made them more miserable as adults.
Tie Hongyan wrapped up the review book and put it away. Still wanting to cry, she felt that she had not seen the stars for a long time, and suddenly wanted to take a look.
She walked to that place alone - it was there that she suddenly appeared in front of Wu Xunsheng with a somersault. That year, her face was swollen after being beaten by Tie Wandao. Wu Xunsheng was walking around holding medicine to reduce the swelling, hesitating whether to give it to her, but was discovered by the person sent by Tie Wandao to deliver the medicine to her. The medicine deliverer told her that she saw Wu Xunsheng and felt that the thing in Wu Xunsheng's hand looked like medicine, and asked her if it was for her. She asked the medicine delivery person to take her to see the medicine. When the two of them arrived at the place mentioned by the person, they did not see Wu Xunsheng. The medicine deliverer left, and she stood there, intoxicated by the comfort of the spring breeze blowing on her body. She did not go back immediately. As she walked forward, she heard the sound of people touching branches and saw figures flashing past. She somersaulted to the man and saw Wu Xunsheng. He panicked when he saw her and later admitted he was hesitant to give her the medicine. She already had the medicine by then and thanked him. That time, after speaking, she quickly turned around and left because she didn't want to watch his back gradually move away from her like before. That time, he was watching her back walking away from him. That day, the spring breeze was warm and the flowers and plants were fragrant.
Now that a long time has passed since that year, Tie Hongyan walked towards that place again. Before she reached the place where she wanted to stay, she could already smell the fragrance of flowers and plants again. There were several benches where she wanted to stay, which did not exist back then. She wanted to look at the stars on the benches.
When she walked not far from the bench, she heard someone talking there.
Just listen to the man saying: "Since you don't want to go back yet, then don't go back yet. I happen to be thirsty too, so I'm going to get some water. In this way, we can continue to sit here and not be thirsty anymore."
Then, she heard the man's footsteps leaving from another way. Back then there was only one road leading to the place, but now there are not only benches but also several paths. (End of chapter)
