The Starry Sky, The Starry Sea: Chapter 9 I’m not afraid of you, I want you

Chapter9 I'm not afraid of you, I want you

At least for this moment, please let me know how you feel. I just want to know that I don't feel wrong and that you like me just a little bit.

For the whole night, Wu Julan didn't go home, nor did he call back.

I have been sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for Wu Julan. After a while, I called Wu Julan's mobile phone, and the computer-synthesized female voice always told me softly and cruelly: "Sorry, the number you dialed is not within the service area, please try again later."

If there is a little wind and grass outside the yard, I will look out with anticipation, but I have never seen Wu Julan push the door and enter.

Jiang Yisheng was worried about me, so he called the hospital and asked for leave, and stayed with me all the time.

In the morning, neither of them had any appetite, so they didn't eat.

At noon, Jiang Yisheng made me a bowl of longevity noodles, "I cook the noodles so hard, you can eat as much as you want. Even if you don't look at my face, you have to look at Wu Julan's face. Only when you are full will you have the strength to think of a way." !”

"I understand what you're saying, but now I really can't eat." Intellectually, I'm fully aware that I don't help things by not eating, but there seems to be a heavy big stuffed in my stomach. The stones weighed me down so much that I didn't have any room for food.

I said: "I want to go up the mountain again."

"I will go with you, maybe there will be new discoveries."

Jiang Yisheng and I walked slowly along the road that Wu Julan and I went up the mountain last night.

The midday sun was so scorching that one could hardly keep one's eyes open. All the way to the top of the mountain, I didn't meet a single person.

Jiang Yisheng frowned, and said to himself: "I'm a smart person, but when I think about it from last night, I can't figure out how a few living people can disappear without leaving a trace Missing? With Wu Julan's skill, he should be able to persist until we arrive, unless something happens that we don't know about."

I walked silently to the Eagle's Mouth Cliff, looking at the vast blue sea.

Last night, when I was standing here, I was still worried about what would happen tonight, telling myself to enjoy the moment, but this moment was so short.

Jiang Yisheng worriedly called: "Xiaoluo, come back! Don't stand so close to the cliff!"

I stepped back, recalling what happened last night, and walked slowly under the coconut tree.

In bright sunlight, everything is more clearly seen. The coconut tree is right in front of the trail, guarding here is like guarding a pass, which can block all dangers. In the long life, not every woman can meet a man who is willing to stand behind her and block all dangers for her.

My nose was sour, and tears welled up in my eyes. Wu Julan, you promised me that nothing will happen! You must keep your word!

Jiang Yisheng, who was walking around on the top of the mountain, suddenly said excitedly: "Xiaoluo, we have been up for so long, and we haven't seen anyone."

I quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes, turned around, and looked at him inexplicably.

Jiang Yisheng waved his hands and said excitedly: "This is not a scenic spot. No one comes to play in broad daylight. How come there are four people on the mountain for no reason at night? Whether you want to rob or steal, you should go to the bustling and lively place Lantern Street, you shouldn’t be here at all! I don’t think these four people met you by chance and committed crimes at random!”

As if enlightened, I suddenly saw a ray of light from the darkness, "They... are here specifically for me and Wu Julan!"

"Yes! If you can't find Wu Julan, find a way to find those four people! They must know Wu Julan's whereabouts! But..." Jiang Yisheng sighed, "Wu Julan never told you where he came from or what he did, you can Said, we don't know Wu Julan at all, and it's a bit difficult to find clues!"

I said: "How can you be sure that those people are targeting Wu Julan?"

"It's not aimed at him, is it aimed at you? Since you were young, your experience has been lacklustre. No one will want to go to war and find four gangsters with knives to deal with you."

While thinking carefully, I said slowly: "My experience is lacklustre, but a lot has happened in the past two months. I went to the bank to withdraw money, but was robbed on the way back; we went out to play, When I got home, I found two thieves at home; Wu Julan and I went for a walk on the mountain and met four thieves. Our street has always been in good order, and such a thing has never happened, but I have encountered three things in succession, not just a sentence It can be explained by bad luck.”

Jiang Yisheng agreed: "Indeed! These three things should be related!"

I said, "The only thing these three things have in common is me."

Jiang Yisheng said: "It's all related to Wu Julan. These things happened after he lived in your house."

I have no way to refute Jiang Yisheng. As he said, my experience is very clear, and I can't think of any reason that would cause others to deliberately deal with me.

I said: "Whether it's directed at me or Wu Julan, it doesn't matter for the time being. The point is, if these three things are not isolated, the two thieves caught are..."

"Clue!" After Jiang Yisheng finished speaking, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called his friend who worked in the police station.

"What? Has been sent away? Why..."

The two thieves caused neither personal injury nor property damage, so it was considered an attempted burglary. Because they have a good attitude of admitting their mistakes, the sentence will be very light, about six months, and they can be released on bail; and because the case will eventually be heard in the jurisdiction of the island, they have been released by the detention center and left the island.

Jiang Yisheng comforted me and said: "The person just left temporarily, and it's not that there is no way to track them down. I have asked my friends to help me find out who their guarantor is and when the case will be tried. I can always follow the clues to find out."

I nodded with a heavy heart, and traced layer by layer. I don't know how long it will take, Wu Julan...I immediately told myself that he promised me, and nothing will happen! He is so proud, he will definitely not break his promise! Certainly not!

When I returned home from the mountain, I returned to the way I was before—sitting on the sofa, looking out the window, holding a mobile phone in my hand, and calling Wu Julan after a while.

In order to distract me, Jiang Yisheng turned on the TV and took a bunch of snacks and put them on the coffee table. However, my favorite way of relaxing in the past no longer has the slightest effect, and my heart and mind are still Wu Julan.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, I begged Jiang Yisheng and said, "I have lost contact with Wu Julan for 24 hours. Can you find a way to find a friend, make accommodations, and ask the police to help you find it?"

Jiang Yisheng said: "Okay! Wu Julan's situation is a bit complicated, I have to find a friend and talk to him face to face, you are at home alone...is it okay?"

"Of course there is no problem! After a while, I will go to sleep. My mobile phone is always on, and you can call me anytime."

"That's fine, you have a good sleep, I'll call you if something happens." Jiang Yisheng picked up his coat and left in a hurry.

I called Wu Julan's cell phone again.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is out of service area, please try again later."

I whispered into the phone: "How long will it be later?"

The host's excited voice came from the TV: "This year's Mid-Autumn Festival's full moon will be the roundest in fifty-two years. We Chinese have an old saying that 'when the water is full, it overflows, and when the moon is full, it loses'. It can be seen that the full moon is a very short moment. Do you want to know when the moon is really the roundest? According to the prediction of astronomers, the fullest moon will appear at 11:49 tonight. Mid-Autumn Festival reunion moon, you Have you chosen a place to watch the moon..."

I stood up, thought blankly for a while, and began to rummage through boxes and cabinets to find things.

I put on a warm jacket, non-slip shoes, and a portable flashlight.

"...But it's a pity that there is rain in southern my country tonight, so it's not suitable for watching the moon..."

I picked up the remote control and turned off the TV with a "snap".

When I put down the remote control, I saw the snacks on the coffee table and put a pack of chocolates in my pocket. When I walked out, I took another folding umbrella by the way.

I walked down the path that I have traveled countless times since I was a child, and went down to the reef beach where Wu Julan and I agreed to meet on the night of the full moon.

The shape of this beach is like a crooked "concave" character. On both sides are high cliffs that rise above the sea, which are very steep. In the middle is a reef beach stretching hundreds of meters long. Because the water is rough, the waves are rough, and the rocks are rugged, it is neither suitable for swimming nor for docking boats, so few people come. Only the nearby children occasionally hide here to smoke and drink, and do things that need to avoid parents and teachers.

For a long time, this beach has been the secret garden of me, Datou, and the genius doctor. Every time, when I'm in a bad mood and want to be alone, I come here.

Tonight's moon is big and round, but because there are clouds in the sky, the moon is outside the clouds for a while, and gets in the clouds for a while, and the beach is bright and dark for a while.

I picked the most conspicuous reef, climbed onto it, stood upright, turned on the flashlight, held it up high, and made myself as bright and dazzling as a lighthouse. As long as Wu Julan comes, no matter where he is, he can see me at a glance.

When I can't find him, the only thing I can do is try to make him find me, which is also a little hope in despair.

When I get tired of lifting one hand, I switch to the other hand, and the two hands alternate, always keeping the light of the flashlight high above my head.

Standing silently, praying silently, waiting silently... I don't know how long I have been waiting, let alone how long I will wait, it seems that I have turned into a stone, tireless, thirsty, as long as Wu Julan hasn't come back safely, I will hold the flashlight and wait here.

The wind blowing from the sea suddenly became stronger, and thick clouds rushed to the moon and enveloped it. The sky and the earth became pitch black, and the sea water also lost its brilliance, as black as ink. The tide is getting faster and faster, and the waves are getting higher and higher. The sea roared like a raging beast awakened to devour everything.

According to grandpa: "One wind blows, two clouds surge, three waves turn, and four is about to rain." Experienced fishermen can smell the wind and know that the Sea Dragon King is about to get angry, so they have to find a place quickly dodge.

Tonight's Sea Dragon King is obviously very unhappy, warning everyone to stay away from him as soon as possible.

However, because of the agreement on the night of the full moon, I stood on the reef with a flashlight in hand, unwilling to leave for a long time. What if Wu Julan came right after I left?

Wait a little longer...

Wait a little longer, I will go...

Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, I'll go, I'll go right away... One after another "for a while", without a trace of warning, the torrential rain suddenly poured down, and the bean-sized raindrops slammed down, smashing My whole body hurts.

I bit the flashlight in my mouth, took out the folding umbrella, just opened it, "hoo", the whole umbrella was blown up by the wind, not only could not protect me from the rain, but it made me unable to stand still. Almost fell off the rocks.

I let go of my hand in a hurry, and with a "crash", the umbrella was blown by the wind and disappeared.

I felt that something was wrong, so I picked up the flashlight and took a look at my feet, only to find that the waves had silently rolled over to the reef where I was standing with the rapidly rising tide, almost drowning me instep.

I am instinctively afraid of the water, and immediately want to retreat in a hurry.

A wave was not smooth, and a bigger wave rolled towards the rock where I was standing.

"Ah——" I slid off the reef and was swept into the waves.

I subconsciously struggled desperately to grab hold of the nearby reefs, but to my horror found that I couldn't catch anything.

Involuntarily, I rushed back and forth between the rocks and slid towards the sea with the sea water.

At the last moment when I was about to lose consciousness, a strong and powerful hand suddenly reached out, pulled me into his arms, and floated out of the water with his arms around me.

I opened my mouth wide, panting hard while coughing non-stop, my whole body twitched involuntarily because of fear, but my heart was filled with joy, eager to see the person who saved me clearly.

It's Wu Julan, it's really Wu Julan!

Although the night was dark and the sea water blurred my eyes, I could only vaguely see a silhouette, but I was absolutely sure that it was Wu Julan.

The wind is howling, the rain is pouring, and the tide is surging. It seems that the whole world is about to capsize.

Wu Julan firmly grasped a raised rock with one hand, and hugged me tightly with the other. There was a small safe space between his chest and the rock, and I was protected from the wind and waves.

I don't know whether it is rain, sea water, or tears on my face. Anyway, my vision is blurred, so I can't see clearly. I stretched out my hand and stroked Wu Julan's face tremblingly. After confirming that everything in front of me was not an illusion, I hugged his neck tightly and pressed my head tightly against his neck.

The sky and the earth are dark, the wind is like a pack of hungry wolves, howling constantly; the heavy rain is like the whip of God, whipping everything in the world viciously; the sea is like an angry prehistoric beast, trying to swallow the whole world .

It seems that the world is on the verge of destruction, but I feel that at this moment, I am extremely peaceful, in his arms, with my head next to his neck, everything is solid and reliable.

Storms come fast and go fast.

After more than half an hour, suddenly, the wind eased, the rain stopped, the sea became calm, and the clouds gradually dispersed. A beautiful golden full moon hangs in the deep blue sky, reflecting the sparkling sea.

I raised my head, stared at Wu Julan, and gently wiped off the drops of water on his face with my hands, "Thank you, thank you... Ah Choo!"

As soon as I opened my mouth, I shivered immediately, only to feel so cold.

Wu Julan gently pushed me away, trying to help me sit on the rock.

Like an octopus, I immediately entangled Wu Julan, only to realize that he was not wearing a shirt. The bare skin was almost at the same temperature as the cold sea water, so I rubbed it subconsciously, trying to warm him up a bit. After finishing it, I realized that it seemed... more like taking advantage.

I was embarrassed, so I quickly let go of him, and said in a disguised way: "Let's go up together."

Wu Julan shook her head, pointed to the direction of home, pulled my hand away, and wanted to push me onto the rock.

I finally realized, belatedly, that something was wrong.

I held Wu Julan's arm tightly, "I won't go home first! You, you... talk to me, just call me 'Xiaoluo'."

Wu Julan looked at me silently, with her mouth tightly closed.

"You can't talk? Did they do that?"

Tears rolled in my eyes, I reached out to touch his lips, "Let me see, where is the injury?"

Wu Julan was very shy, and turned his head suddenly, avoiding my hand.

I looked at him puzzled, but he was silent, with sadness flowing in his deep eyes.

I didn't want to force him anymore, I grabbed his wrist with one hand and grabbed the reef with the other, wanting to climb ashore, even forgetting my fear of water, "Let's go to Jiang Yisheng now and see a doctor immediately."

Wu Julan gently supported me below, and I easily climbed onto the reef.

I turned around and pulled him hard, trying to pull him ashore, but Wu Julan didn't move.

I was about to use more force, but I didn't know how Wu Julan's hand flipped and broke free from my hand easily. He backed away slowly.

I yelled in horror: "Wu Julan!" Immediately I wanted to jump into the water and chase him.

Wu Julan stopped, and raised his hand to me comfortingly, indicating that he didn't want to leave, and let me stay well. I didn't move any more, I knelt on the rock, staring at Wu Julan nervously and confusedly.

After Wu Julan made sure that I would not jump into the sea, she slowly retreated away from the reef.

I didn't dare to blink my eyes, and stared at him closely.

He stopped a few meters away, a distance that allowed me to see him clearly but ensured that we couldn't touch him.

He looked at me silently, did not speak for a long time, and did not make any movements.

I squeezed out a dry laugh and called softly: "Wu Julan!"

He finally started to move.

As if there was a platform under the sea supporting Wu Julan, he slowly rose up from the sea until it reached his waist, and his entire upper body was exposed on the sea.

He stopped steadily in the middle of the sea, looking at me quietly, as if reminding me to see everything clearly; also as if implying that if I want to escape, there is still time for everything.

Under the bright moonlight, his upper body was as perfect as a marble sculpture in front of a Greek temple. His muscles were firm and powerful, his skin was fair and firm, and the water droplets seemed to be shining with silver light, sliding down the undulating curves.

It would be a lie if I said I didn’t notice anything different, but it wasn’t enough to scare me. I smiled nervously and joked, “I’m in good shape!”

Wu Julan stared at me deeply, as if he had finally made up his mind. "哗啦" sounded as the water rolled over, and I seemed to see a huge fish jumping out of the water.

When the waves subsided, I saw Wu Julan sitting calmly on the sea surface, her whole body unfolded in front of me without any cover.

My eyes were staring, my mouth was open, and my mind went blank.

The sky that has just experienced a storm is exceptionally clean and clear, like a flawless sapphire. A round of golden yellow full moon hung in the sky, big and bright, and the bright light poured down, reflecting the whole sea shimmering.

Wu Julan sat gracefully sideways on the sea under the full moon. His upper body was a human body, but below his waist was a fish. The big and long silver-blue fish tail floated on the water surface, making him look like a fish. It's like sitting on the water. As the breeze blew, the sparkling sea gently rose and fell, and Wu Julan's body shook slightly.

I think I'm going crazy! What did I see?

Really? fake? Hallucinations before death?

Actually, I'm almost dead! Whether it was saved by Wu Julan, or the picture I see now, it is a hallucination before death... But, no matter how wishful I hypnotize myself, everything is false, and my reason is in a small corner, stubbornly reminding me Me, everything is true!

I wanted to scream instinctively, which is a natural self-protection and defense mechanism of human beings, but there are still familiar faces in the picture that makes me crazy. Although I am shocked and dizzy now, I clearly know that doing so will definitely hurt him, no! Absolutely not... I kept kneeling like a fossil, looking at Wu Julan with a dull expression.

He also has not moved, waiting quietly and calmly, like a person who has nowhere to go and leaves his fate to God to decide. There is nothing but a long wait and a longer wait. Method.

After Wu Julan waited patiently and long enough, I finally found my voice and asked dryly: "You, are you cosplaying?"

This is the only reasonable explanation I think after denying dreaming, madness, hallucinations and other options one by one. I was afraid that he didn't understand, so I gesticulated and said: "It is through costumes and props to dress up as a certain character in movies, novels, and games. A clever coser can dress up exactly as he imagined."

Wu Julan shook his head, raised his nearly two-meter-long tail high, drew a beautiful arc in the sky, and then fell back into the water. Under the moonlight, every move of the silver-blue fish tail is breathtakingly beautiful, it is definitely not something human can do, it can only be a gift from the Creator.

Really!

Everything is true!

After having to accept the fact, the horror slowly dissipated.

Why do I have to hope that everything in front of me is fake? Why do you always want a reasonable explanation from Wu Julan? Why can't Wu Julan have a fish tail? What if everything is true? He is still him!

I couldn't help but look at Wu Julan carefully, he seemed to know that I had the courage to really look at him now, he turned his body slightly so that I could see more clearly.

Under the moonlight, he seemed to have changed again.

His eye sockets are deeper, his brow bones are higher, his nose bridge is more straight, his nose wings are narrower, his jaw is more prominent, and his whole face is more angular. The jet-black hair hung wetly on his shoulders, making him look very eerie and handsome, but also very ruthless.

Except for the front half of his body, his whole body is covered with a layer of fine blue scales, which is very similar to beasts like lions and tigers. Only the front abdomen is unprotected, so beasts always hide deep in the abdomen. The color of the scales gradually becomes lighter from bottom to top, the caudal fin is dark blue like a Kashmir sapphire, and almost turns into a crystal-clear light blue when it reaches the shoulders, if it is not under the moonlight, the scales glow with a faint silver light, almost Didn't notice the scales on his shoulders. The entire arm is also covered with scales, and the color gradually darkens from the shoulders down, and when it approaches the wrist bone, it has turned into a dark blue like a Kashmir sapphire.

I asked curiously: "When I was in the water just now, I didn't feel scales on your shoulders and arms, is it because you didn't have scales just now?"

Wu Julan nodded.

I asked: "Is it because you are worried that I am afraid...you didn't show it?"

Wu Julan looked at me quietly without saying a word.

It suddenly occurred to me-I'm not the only one who is nervous and scared, right? Isn't Wu Julan nervous or afraid?

He was afraid that I would be afraid, so he purposely sat there at a distance that made me feel safe, showing his body all the time, and cooperating with every question I asked, no one would like this, right? What's more, Wu Julan, who has always been arrogant and indifferent?

My heart is bulging, sad and moved, I feel like crying and laughing at the same time.

I said: "Wu Julan, can you swim here?"

Wu Julan looked at me without moving.

I begged: "I'm afraid the water can't swim, come here, okay?"

Wu Julan swung his fish tail gracefully, and sank under the water, and his body also sank, only his chest above the surface of the sea.

He swam towards me. In fact, it didn't look like swimming, because his hands didn't move at all, and his body was straight. It was more like floating from the water.

When there was still a distance of more than one meter, he stopped and stared at me, as if confirming that I was really not afraid.

The sour and astringent feeling in my heart was so full that it was about to overflow, and I couldn't help but sighed lightly. It was definitely not sadness, but a heartwarming soft touch. For the first time, I discovered that every time I thought I liked someone enough, the next moment I would like him even more because of his little action.

Wu Julan misunderstood my sigh, his eyes were full of helplessness and sadness, and he wanted to back off.

I immediately said: "Don't move!"

Since he can't speak, let me speak!

I said, "You don't really think I'm afraid of you, do you? Come on! I'm not a big fan of Twilight and My Love from the Star, but I never landed a single episode. It's all over."

Wu Julan's expression was very bewildered, obviously he didn't know what "Twilight" and "My Love from the Star" were, and what relationship they had with him.

""Twilight" is a movie about vampires, "My Love from the Star" is a TV series about aliens, you can't imagine how many women in the world are fans of them. Girls nowadays It's not the people of the era of "The Legend of the White Snake". When seeing monsters, they are either scared to death or screaming to kill them. Now everyone is eager to meet monsters, vampires and aliens. For girls, "Boyfriend is not a human being." ' is definitely more attractive than 'boyfriend is tall, rich and handsome'..."

Uh... what did I say just now, it seems that I said "not a human being", is this a curse word? I immediately shut my mouth.

I looked at Wu Julan, and Wu Julan looked at me.

I opened my mouth, but I felt that no words could express my feelings at this time. I simply stopped talking, leaned forward, propped one hand on the rock, and stretched out the other to Wu Julan, showing with actions——I am not afraid of you! I want you!

Wu Julan looked at me, motionless.

My hand was stubbornly and quietly waiting in front of Wu Julan.

After a long time, Wu Julan met my gaze and slowly raised his hand that was submerged in the sea, but he didn't want to hold my hand, but wanted me to see clearly, what is the hand that I wanted to hold? What does it look like.

My breathing was stagnant, and even my pupils shrank suddenly.

Under the silver moonlight, strings of drops of water are falling from his fingers. It should have been a gentle and beautiful picture, but now it only makes people feel shock and terror.

His entire palm was covered with blue-black fine scales, which looked as cold and hard as metal. Five tendons popped up on the back of the hand, highlighting the power that could destroy everything. The five fingers are long and thin, and the nails are sharp and sharp, like five steel needles, which can easily pierce the vitals of the prey. There are connected webs between the fingers, and when the palm is fully opened, it is almost twice the size of a normal person.

Assessed objectively, this is not so much a hand as it is the claw of a ferocious beast.

I was very shocked, even instinctively afraid, but when I evaded to look at the owner of the claw, Wu Julan's calm and deep eyes were also carefully observing my reaction. Realizing that the slightest reaction from me could hurt him, I immediately calmed down.

I turned my eyes to his raised hand in the moonlight again, and watched carefully. Again, I'm sure it's a beast's claw that can tear everything apart, but he's so cautious that he wouldn't scare me even by approaching me, so what if it's a beast's claw? This claw won't hurt me at all!

I stared at him, holding out my hand stubbornly and quietly.

I see clearly what the hands I'm about to hold look like, and I'm still sure - I'm not afraid of you! I want you!

Confront in silence.

Finally, Wu Julan stretched out his hand towards me slowly, his speed was very slow, very slow, as if he was afraid that I would not have a chance to repent and escape. When the fingertips of the two were about to touch, he stopped, still giving me the last chance to repent and escape.

I became impatient to wait, regardless of the vast ocean in front of me, I tried hard and grabbed his hand. Startled, the sharp nails snapped back into his fingers. I took a chance, swayed, and was about to fall off the reef. He held my hand and gently supported me, making me lie firmly on the reef.

I immediately held his hand back, it didn't feel warm and soft, but cold and hard, just as I imagined.

I stared at him, held his hand, and pulled him towards me with a little bit of force——I want to be with you, without fear, without force, and without regret!

He followed my lead and slowly swam to my side.

I smiled at him, and he quietly stared at my smiling face.

At this moment, the brilliance in our eyes dimmed the most beautiful moonlight in fifty-two years.

I was lying on the reef, Wu Julan was floating in the water next to the reef, and the two of them held hands tightly. I kept looking at Wu Julan, until I saw Wu Julan, I seemed a little embarrassed, and lowered my eyes slightly.

I asked worriedly: "Did you not be able to speak because you were hurt by those four people?"

Wu Julan nodded, then shook his head again.

"Half because of injury, half because of other things?"

Wu Julan nodded.

I thought for a while and said, "Because you turned back into... a fish body?"

Wu Julan smiled slightly, as if he was praising me for being smart.

It's not hard to guess. Isn't it normal that his lower body is different from that of humans, and the tongue or trachea are different from humans?

I asked: "On the night of the full moon last month, you disappeared all night, is it because... the same as now?"

Wu Julan nodded.

"Oh—then do you turn back into a fish every month when the moon is full?"

Wu Julan nodded.

"It's amazing!" I can't imagine two legs turning into a tail, and a tail turning into two legs.

"Last night, you said that your legs suddenly cramp and you can't move. Is this also the reason?"

Wu Julan nodded and pointed to the moon in the sky.

I understand that the most abnormal moon in fifty-two years has caused abnormalities in his body.

"When will you turn back into a human body? When the moon sets and the sun rises?" I remember that he should have appeared after sunrise last time.

Wu Julan nodded.

I looked at the moon in the sky and said to him: "I will wait with you."

Wu Julan pointed to my wet clothes, motioning for me to go back first.

I shook my head, "No! I haven't heard you say it to me... anyway, I won't go back. There is no wind and the weather is not cold. I am in good health, and I have hardly been sick since I was a child. , you don’t have to worry.”

I said that I was not cold, but in fact I was not only cold, but also very hungry. Suddenly, I thought of something, took out a bag of chocolates from my pocket, and put it on the reef.

I held Wu Julan with one hand, and I was reluctant to let go. I wanted to tear open the plastic paper bag with the other hand, but it was obviously difficult.

Wu Julan's fingertips lightly slid across the bag, and the plastic bag split open.

I picked up a piece and handed it to Wu Julan's mouth. He froze for a moment, opened his mouth slightly, and rolled the chocolate into his mouth with his tongue.

My heart was beating like a drum, and I jumped up at a high speed, but I pretended nothing had happened. I picked up a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into my mouth. I felt the wetness of my fingertips. .

The moon was gradually sinking to the west, Wu Julan pointed to the cliff not far away, signaling him to leave for a while.

"Are you going... to turn back into legs?" I asked.

Wu Julan nodded.

Although I really want to be with him, this should be a very private matter, just like when someone changes underwear, I certainly don't like people watching.

I said softly: "I'll wait for you, if you have something to do... just make a noise, or throw a stone at me."

I let go of my hand reluctantly, Wu Julan smiled at me comfortingly, and sank into the bottom of the water without a sound.

I tried to look under the water, but I couldn't see anything. Wu Julan has always been very slow in front of me, but obviously his real speed is as fast as lightning.

The tide has not yet fully set, and the reef where I am is at the innermost part of the sea, and the surrounding water is very deep. Restraining my fear, I stood up on both hands and feet, and looked at the cliff that Wu Julan just pointed out.

At the moment when the moon has set and the sun has not yet risen, the sky and the earth are very dark. I was standing alone on the reef, and I could hardly see anything clearly. I was feeling nervous and afraid, when I heard the faint voice of singing.

The pronunciation and melody are very strange, I can't understand what is being sung at all, but it is just indescribably beautiful. The heavenly singing sounds are not heard with the ears, but can be heard in every pore and every inch of skin, directly penetrate into the body and resonate with the soul.

It's Wu Julan singing!

He guessed that I would be afraid, and told me in singing that he was by my side.

The feeling of being loved and cherished made me almost cry, and my mood became peaceful and peaceful.

The sky gradually reveals a hazy light, illuminating the sea surface.

I saw that the sea water under the cliff was a little red, and I thought that today's sunrise should be full of red clouds, which is very beautiful. It's a pity that the beach here is facing west, and I can see the sunset, but not the sunrise. I can only judge whether the sun has risen according to the degree of dawn.

In the continuous sound of the waves, I suddenly found that the beautiful singing voice disappeared, because it was too gentle, and when it left, it was like the morning clouds and the morning dew, so people didn't notice it for a while.

I was a little panicked, I leaned forward, put my hands around my mouth, turned towards the direction of the cliff, and shouted: "Wu Julan!"

"I am here."

The sound was right under my feet, and I looked down in surprise.

Wu Julan slowly floated up from the sea, supported her hands, and sat down on the reef.

I took a quick glance, and I was sure it was two legs, so I was embarrassed to look again, and my eyes moved up quickly. He was wearing wet black shorts and a white T-shirt, which were the clothes he was wearing the night before before he disappeared, but last night, he obviously had nothing on.

Seeing me looking at his clothes in confusion, Wu Julan said: "I hid the clothes in the coral cave, otherwise I have to find a way to steal them before going ashore."

I thought of his funny outfit when I first saw him, and I couldn't help laughing, "So you stole those clothes, no wonder they are so mixed and matched!"

"But this time I jumped into the sea in a hurry. There is only one shoe left, and the phone is also broken." Wu Julan shook his two feet that were still soaking in the sea, the left foot was bare, and the right foot was kicking. flip flops.

I looked at the uneven rocky beach, took off my coat, and handed it to him, "Use this to wrap your feet, and I'll buy a new pair of shoes when I get home."

Wu Julan used my coat to wrap neat "shoes". I suspect he has done this before.

I asked worriedly: "You just... just walked, will you be okay?"

"It's okay. If you haven't been on land for a long time, you need to get used to it. This time, it's okay." Wu Julan stood up, looking like an ordinary person, nothing unusual.

The two stood facing each other, the small reef seemed a bit cramped.

Suddenly, we seemed to have aphasia, and neither of us spoke, just looked at each other.

After a while, my voice was not loud, but I said clearly: "My heart has not changed."

Wu Julan said: "You will regret it later."

"That's for the future, if I give up now, I will regret it now, and you are not me, don't judge for me."

Wu Julan was silent, not speaking or moving.

The mountain is not just me, I will go to the mountain! I moved my toes, moved forward a little bit, and moved forward a little bit, until I was almost standing in front of Wu Julan.

Wu Julan remained silent.

I stood dripping wet in the cool morning breeze, and I didn't know whether it was a cold heart or a cold body. I started to shiver, and the shaking became more and more severe, and my whole body was shaking like chaff.

I said tremblingly: "Wu Julan, you promised me, mine!"

Wu Julan didn't speak.

"Wu Julan, you, you...do you want to see me drowning before you come to hug me?"

"You're too cold, let's go back!" Wu Julan turned around and wanted to leave.

I jumped towards the sea without hesitation, everyone was already in the air, Wu Julan jumped up, hugged me as fast as lightning, turned a circle in the air, and landed firmly on the reef.

He just wanted to let go, I said: "I can still jump! But you can choose not to save me, just let me drown!"

Wu Julan laughed angrily at me, "Shen Luo, I've never seen a thick-skinned woman like you!"

"See you now, it's not too late!"

Wu Julan said coldly: "Unfortunately, I have never been the only one who threatens others, no one threatens me! You can jump if you want, anyway, it is you who drowned, not me!" Wu Julan let go of me, turned around and left.

I stared at his back for a moment, turned around and jumped into the sea.

Although I had prepared myself psychologically for the jump, my fear of water had already penetrated into my bones. As soon as my body entered the water, I started to convulse uncontrollably and sank to the bottom of the sea like a stone. Fortunately, Wu Julan jumped off the moment I fell into the water, quickly grabbed me, brought me to the surface, and jumped onto the reef.

I lay on his arm, coughing, and said: "You... didn't accept threats before because you didn't put that person in your heart. Unfortunately, you put me in your heart now, and you just You can accept my threat!"

Wu Julan remained silent, neither denying nor trying to let me go.

I murmured: "I know the road ahead is very difficult, maybe far beyond my imagination, but, at least for this moment, please let me know your heart. I just want to know, I don't feel wrong, you Also like me a little bit."

Among the blue sea and blue sky, under the rising sun, Wu Julan hugged me tightly in his arms for the first time. The arms tightened tighter and tighter, making me almost out of breath, and my ribs hurt, but it made me truly feel his feelings for me for the first time, and I closed my eyes contentedly.

In a trance, I felt that he liked me not only a little bit, but a lot, like a snow-capped mountain, although the surface is full of ice, but deep in the ground, what is churning is hot magma.
