What Yi Hua saw was like an undefined hazy shadow. Even his mind was so confused that he forgot where he was. What she was like when she saw that, Yi Hua did not know.
But more important than anything, Yi Hua saw Yue Yan lift his bumpy head. In his eyes now this young Shen Qibo looked extremely annoying. "If you want to buy a cow. Buy me one."
Shen Qibo laughed crisply. It was not much different from the current Shen Qibo. He was still happy to laugh, but with a somewhat different aura. Shen Qibo looked very clean and pure. In Shen Qibo's eyes was simply a sickening kindness.
The naivety of youth cannot be discarded. Until whenever. When we think back to that time when we were like now, it would be very embarrassing. It's the same as when you were a child you believed that burying our hair with the opposite sex on the ground could make us mate later.
I don't know where Yi Hua heard it.
But from the appearance, Yi Hua could refer to this child as the son of a rich man. The rich man's son got lost in the woods.
Shen Qibo was comfortably seated next to Yue Yan. The little man looked not so much trouble with Yue Yan's smelly condition. It was obviously because Yue Yan had just been thrown into the trash by the children in the village.
Has this kind of thing become so popular?
Oppress others as if others are inferior, and hold hard even if you are oppressed. Or acting like what we do is something we do normally. It's like you don't know anymore if what you're doing is breaching humanity's limits.
This kind of thing, who cultivated?
It sucks!
Yue Yan stared at the stream of water before him. As if to look at her own situation. However, his eyes looked a bit empty as usual. There is no sadness, and such a sadness is a reasonableness in his life.
Shen Qibo shrugged his shoulders. "Isn't that interesting?"
The head of Yue Yan who was looking down at the lion turned on Shen Qibo. Somehow Shen Qibo presented an infuriating impression to Yue Yan. It's like you hate people who cheat after you've been unlucky a few times.
Well, Yi Hua was somehow able to understand this matter.
It sucks enough when you're sad, angry, and painful. Then, someone came, and gave his motivational sentence as if he understood all the other people's sorrows. And if he experiences the same thing as you, he somehow responds to it. Believe me it is better not to be full of nonsense in other people's problems.
Yet Yi Hua realized Shen Qibo was really like a white cloth, which even we ourselves were afraid to change. Maybe Yue Yan thought the same thing about it. Therefore, Yue Yan looked somewhat disinclined.
"really. The scenery here was very interesting," Yue Yan replied who did not know what Shen Qibo really meant.
SRETT!
Shen Qibo's hand pulled something from the grass, and it was a white snake. "I mean this animal ..." And the little white snake twitched its tail in Shen Qibo's hands without pecking.
Well obviously. Shen Qibo the head of the snake with his hands. The white snake could not open its mouth. Yet the sight of the person shaking the snake like Shen Qibo did remained strange in Yi Hua's eyes. How could they play a snake like he was just a cow's tail?
Yue Yan pulled the snake from Shen Qibo's hand. "You hurt her!"
"You blame him?" shen Qibo asked suddenly who was out of nowhere the thought came from.
Even Yue Yan who had just released the snake immediately raised his head. Staring directly at Shen Qibo who turned out to lay his body on the surface of the river stone. Shen Qibo's all-white clothes made him look in contrast to the river rocks.
After all, Yue Yan had only seen Shen Qibo for the first time. It was already pointed out that Shen Qibo was not actually a person from their village. Therefore, Shen Qibo was not afraid to talk to him.
If these 'clean' men are their villagers, then ...
"It's a little petty when you think other people are weird just because of something around them. Especially about the 'family' that you belong to," Shen Qibo explained as he closed his eyes.
Yue Yan understood what Shen Qibo meant. After all since childhood he was 'like' being raised by poisonous animals. Somehow this miracle could happen, but Yue Yan was a child who was banished to the forest by his parents.
Then, many said that Yue Yan was like being raised by animals in the forest. Especially the big snakes that guard the forest. Yue Yan also did not know how it happened, but he lived to this size.
Then, ...
"Are you not afraid of me? Maybe I'm not actually human. Well, even though I don't actually know either. How can a baby live in the forest? Then, she was this big .. ha .. ha ... Let others be afraid." Yue Yan laughed blankly as he threw a stone into the river.
The stone of course remained submerged as expected by the destiny of nature. Everything in this world moves as it does. All the living or dead components acted like his destiny, but Yue Yan did not. He still lives in a strange way.
"Can a child choose how to live?" ask Shen Qibo again.
Shen Qibo opened his eyes, and Yue Yan could see how clear Shen Qibo's eye color was. But even more interesting is that Shen Qibo was the first to speak as if they were normal individuals. After all, who was this person who came without a word, and his name was not even Yue Yan knew.
Then, Shen Qibo got up again. "If one could choose how he lived and was brought up, then all the children would live like flowers. But that doesn't mean he's weird. Just like everyone else is raising livestock, what's wrong with being surrounded by venomous stars. It's the same as what you have."
"But, this ...
Everyone is afraid of me ....
Yi Hua who could hear all the thoughts from Yue Yan was unwilling to withdraw her smile wistfully. It's like you want to have a normal life, a life that people often call monotonous, but it turns out to be worth it. Does one person deserve to complain when his life is more normal than others?
Shen Qibo patted his all-white clothes. "That's it. I gotta get back. Maybe they'll hang me if I go any slower."
"They?"
"If you grow up with venomous animals, then I grow up with those crazy people. Think of it that way," explained Shen Qibo in a lazy tone.
Then, Shen Qibo walked away from Yue Yan without any merit. That made Yue Yan frown. "Hey, what's your name?"
And, Shen Qibo turned his head and replied: "You don't need to know."
Whatdoes thatmean?
After saying that, Shen Qibo walked further and further away until his figure was no longer visible in Yue Yan's sight. It left Yue Yan who was sitting behind him with his venomous beasts. And, Yue Yan thought it was the first and last meeting for the two of them.
They were two strangers who met and talked to each other.
That'sthat's all.

SRAT!
"Yi Hua ..."
Somehow An saw what happened as a normalcy. Then, Yi Hua opened his eyes again after his body had cooled down a few minutes earlier. Also, ... Yi Hua's hand was back on.
"Generic ... Uhuk ... Mr. An, I ..." Yi Hua spoke while coughing.
An immediately helped Yi Hua to lie down rather high. It made Yi Hua realize that she was lying on a bed. Things had changed since the last time Yi Hua remembered.
Wasn't he previously at the well? With Yue Yan and Shen Qibo?
Yi Hua pressed down on her chest which was a little sore from her own breath. "Where are they?"
A TAP!
Yi Hua's eyes closed as An pressed a cold cloth on his forehead. An pressed down on her as if not allowing Yi Hua to get up. A fresh and comfortable feeling was immediately felt on his forehead. Of course this way, Yi Hua could not face An.
"Think about your situation first."
That's what An called. Her voice remained calm as usual, so Yi Hua thought there was no problem. Although in fact An might see what happened to Yi Hua now.
'Back to the Beginning' had been experienced by him. Yi Hua rose again from his death.
"Mr An ..."
"Hmm ...?"
Yi Hua did not know what to say, and therefore she kept quiet.
"I didn't ask, Yi Hua."
That was already the end of the conversation about Yi Hua's state.
Maybe this guy thinks that what happened to me isn't that important.
They are just two people who are not so close. That'sthat's all.
Then, An pulled back the cloth from Yi Hua's forehead. There Yi Hua could see back to the surroundings. They were currently in a quite spacious residence. On its walls hung many paintings that were dominated by the color red. Until Yi Hua's eyes were a little difficult to catch the other colors of the painting.
"Where is this?" yi Hua asked as she rubbed her sore eyes from the red color.
Yi Hua had yet to hear Xiao's voice, it was probably because Xiao was also adjusting. Recently Yi Hua realized that Xiao would also be affected if the ability was to walk. It's just like you're repeating a device when it dies for a moment.
An did not have time to reply, a flying sword flashed beside An's head. If An does not have sufficient speed, it is possible that An's head will leak because of the sword. And, An caught him with two fingers, and returned him to the door.
"Dearly enough. If I can kill you, maybe I can make a new painting."
Heh?? So, this red color is from the blood?
An immediately covered Yi Hua's gaping mouth with his hand. It only happened for a while, before An pulled his hand back. It made Yi Hua touch her own chin. Just for fear that his saliva will come out due to gaping.
However, that did not happen and Yi Hua only let out a sigh of relief.
I don't know why I'm always in such an embarrassing moment in front of An this -_-.
"Welcome to my residence, Mr. Yi. I've heard of your psychic talent before. It was amazing" said the man in his clothes who was very eye-catching.
How not to attract the eyes if he is very striking color. Yi Hua almost wanted to go blind due to the red color in front of her.
"Who is he?" whispered Yi Hua while bringing her head closer to An.
It made An hold the head of Yi Hua who wanted to move. However Yi Hua had just come to a realization. So he can't move too much.
"He's a lunatic."
The man rubbed his sword thrown by An back earlier. "That's nasty. How can you call your friend crazy?"
A fella?
"Ling Xiao's. You can call me that." The man blinked his eyes at Yi Hua.
Ling Xiao's.
"He was a painter who could foresee the future. If he sees someone, and paints that person, then what he looks like is not a 'person'. Except his destiny." This time it was Xiao who explained to Yi Hua.
Someone who used to be a fortune teller in the Li Kingdom about ten years ago. Ling Xiao was thrown out just like that because his prediction was wrong. Since then the inheritance of the throne in the Li Kingdom has also changed.
In the historical record, the Li Kingdom lowered its throne not through blood. When the previous king approaches death, the fortune teller will say the fate of the successor. Although usually the prophecy will still fall to the Li Royal family. It was as if it was indeed destined by the heavens that the Li Kingdom continued to be led by people of the same bloodline.
However Ling Xiao said a false prophecy, and pointed at the person who was not of Li descent to become the King. So the bloodshed happened, and it was a big deal for the Li Kingdom. One of the problems that arose at that time was the black rose, Li Wei. It was the greatest disaster in the history of the Li Kingdom.
There was a lot of chaos at the time. Long droughts, harvests deteriorated, and even they were almost overrun by other kingdoms that took advantage of their decline. All of that was considered by the people as the calamity of Ling Xiao's prophecy.
Therefore, the fate of the throne was handed down in a different way to this day. No longer from the prophecy, but rather from the bloodline of the Li Kingdom. The throne now fell to Li Shen, who was Li's only remaining blood.
In other words, ...
This guy is my senior in the fortune-teller world, isn't he?
