Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3538 (Three Thousand Five Hundred and Thirty-Eight) Encounter

After hearing what Lu Yinting said, Ning Duanye felt very sad again: In the future...how great would it be if she could still practice in the future?
But then I thought about it again and felt that what the master said was right. Am I not saving her life? My practice is equivalent to her practice.

Lu Yinting extinguished his candle and said to Ning Duanye, "Do you want to try the feeling of extinguishing the candle?"

Although Ning Duanye didn't know why she said that, under the circumstances, he would do what she said, and immediately extinguished the candle in his hand.

"We can get closer to them." said Lu Yinting.

"Okay." Ning Duanye said.

Lu Yinting took Ning Duanye to the big rock where she had sat the night she had just escaped to the deep mountains and forests. He pointed to the rock that was big enough for several people to sit on and said, "How about we sit here and watch the fireflies?"

"Okay." Ning Duanye said.

Lu Yinting said to Ning Duanye, "On the first day I escaped to this deep forest, I extinguished the candle in my hand and sat on this stone to watch the fireflies. After watching the fireflies, I suddenly felt that it was not all dark. If I hadn't seen them, I might have run very far, even though I knew that no one could catch up with me. But the shadow in my heart was chasing me, so I would run. I don't know when I would run, but I would definitely not live in the thatched house nearby. Now I think, if I had run farther, it would have been difficult for me to pass the previous road to pick fruits, and I might not have met Master and you. So, I must thank these fireflies."

“Then I have to thank them even more.” Ning Duanye said, “If you hadn’t met me, my master and I would have died long ago.”

"Not necessarily. What if there is another way?" Lu Yinting said, "In my opinion, good people like you who are hard to come by will always be able to turn danger into safety in times of crisis."

"That means I will meet you again, but maybe not you who is coming back from picking fruits. Maybe I will meet you earlier when you are doing other things?" Ning Duanye said, "Didn't you just say that you don't usually take that road? But you still took that road that day. This is fate. If this kind of fate is destined, then we will meet no matter what." Lu Yinting told him some of the circumstances of running here that day, but he hasn't mentioned the things that make his heart shine yet.

As she listened, Ning Duanye asked her out of curiosity, "Why did you put out the candle when you came here to sit and watch the fireflies? It's already dark in this deep forest."

Lu Yinting said: "Actually, before I extinguished the candle, I felt that the candlelight was not enough."

"Even if it's not enough, there are still some. One is brighter than none." Ning Duanye said, "Have you ever thought about lighting more candles?"

"At that time, I didn't know how long I would live in the deep mountains and forests. Although I brought a lot of candles, I had to use them sparingly and not light any more. However, this is not the only reason why I didn't light more candles," said Lu Yinting.

"Is there any other reason?" Ning Duanye asked.

"I felt at the time that even if I lit a lot more candles, I would still feel that the candlelight was not enough," Lu Yinting replied.

"Will it not be enough no matter how many candles we light?" Ning Duanye asked, "Like the candles in my bag, if we light them all, will you also feel that the candlelight is not enough?"
