I loaded the dream game

Chapter 697: Girl Under the Moonlight

"..."

Under Xia Zhi's gaze, the girl carefully closed the paper sliding door again, holding her pillow and tiptoeing to the bed.

"Make room?"

Looking at the boy on the bed, Xia Zhi tilted her head slightly and asked.

Xia Zhi lowered his head and glanced at the black-haired girl who was sleeping soundly in his arms. His meaning was very clear:

Do you think there is any way I can move to another position in my current situation?

Xia Zhi thought about it and felt that it was true, so he went around to the other side and climbed up.

"What are you doing here?"

Feeling the girl's warm body close to him, Xia Zhi asked in a lower voice so as not to wake the girl in his arms.

"Have I disturbed you?" Xia Zhi asked, tilting her head slightly.

Indeed, it disturbed my sleep.

Xia Zhi continued to ask: "Aren't you afraid of waking her up?"

If Xiao Xiazhi knew that the girl gave in on the surface but sneaked into her room behind her back, she would definitely be angry, right?

"No." Xia Zhi said.

"Brother, have you forgotten? It's hard for me to wake up if I have something to hold on to."

As she spoke, she carefully stuffed the pillow she was holding into the arms of "herself" who was sleeping soundly, and then as a replacement, she carefully pulled the boy's arm out, completing a replacement reaction.

Then she raised her head and looked at Xia Zhi with a smug look as if to say, "See, was I right?"

So this is why you brought the pillow here?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

"But, I won't be able to fall asleep if this happens..."

Natsuori, who can't fall asleep without hugging something, pretends to be distressed.

"How about going back and getting another pillow?" Xia Zhi suggested after thinking about it.

Xia Zhi rolled her eyes at him pretending to be confused, then moved closer and hugged him.

"...will be discovered." Xia Zhi said, glancing at the girl who was sleeping soundly beside him.

"No..." Xia Zhi said softly with her cheeks slightly flushed.

Since it was the first time she tried this with "herself", even she felt it was a little bit exciting and bold.

But precisely because of this, it cannot be missed.

After all, such an experience is very rare, isn't it?

"Have you forgotten? I can see all of her memories." She lowered her voice and whispered in the boy's ear:

"If she wakes up, I'll know it right away."

"So... don't worry, brother~"

Xia Zhi inexplicably felt that Xiao Xia Zhi was being taken advantage of by the girl.

So that’s how it is. Is this the difference in rank caused by different experiences?

He thought to himself.

But soon, he no longer had the time to think about those things...

……

By the time the room quieted down again, it was already late at night.

Putting Xia Zhi and You Zhi, who had fallen asleep from exhaustion, together, Xia Zhi yawned, walked out of the room, and prepared to take a bath in the hot spring.

Just like Xia Zhi said, such an opportunity is rare and of course cannot be missed.

There shouldn't be many people in the hot spring late at night, right?

Xia Zhi thought so and walked to the front corridor of the courtyard outside the house.

However, the next moment, he was slightly stunned.

Not far away, under the bright moonlight, the girl was alone leaning on the railing, gazing at the starry sky and moonlight above her head. The moonlight was like a veil, wrapping the girl's creamy skin. Her soft green hair slid down her snow-white shoulders, swaying gently with the breeze. Her red-purple eyes, which were usually as clear as rubies, were a little dazed and dim at this moment, and her delicate and beautiful face showed an inexplicable expression, and no one knew what she was thinking.

After thinking about it, Xia Zhi walked up.

"……Owner?"

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Cong Yu turned around and was slightly stunned when he saw the person coming. Then he turned his head away in a panic, as if he didn't want the boy to see his expression at the moment.

Xia Zhi thought that she looked pretty just now, with the feeling of a classical beauty, which was completely different from her usual style.

After calming down, Cong Yu took a deep breath, looked at him again and asked:

"What's wrong Master? Why are you outside so late?"

"Well..."

Recalling the girl who was sleeping soundly in the room at the moment, Xia Zhi looked away with a guilty look: "Because of something...I didn't sleep well."

"Is that so...?" Cong Yu tilted her head slightly, not quite understanding why he looked so unconfident.

"What about you? Can't sleep?" Xia Zhi changed the subject.

Cong Yu shook his head: "Master, have you forgotten? We don't need to sleep."

Xia Zhi thought about it and it seemed that this was indeed the case.

"So, is this how you spend your nights when you're not sleeping?" He sat down next to the girl and continued asking.

· ········Request flowers··· ··

“It’s not always like this.”

Cong Yu turned around, looked at the bright moon in the sky and said softly:

"Only occasionally, when the moon is full around the 15th of every month, I'll come out to see it on purpose like this."

"Time can change a lot, but this is the only thing that has not changed in the past five hundred years... To us, it is like an old friend."

Perhaps it was just as the girl herself said, at this moment under the moonlight, she seemed to have become much softer, as if she had finally opened her heart, and she spoke a lot more.

Then, as if she felt that this topic was too serious, Cong Yu shook her head, changed the subject and said with a smile: "You know, Master, because no one could see me before, no one would care even if I looked at the moon outside all night, I was used to it, so when I heard someone walking towards me just now, I was really scared."

... ...... 0

Looking at the smiling girl at this moment, Xia Zhi felt inexplicably distressed.

He didn't say anything, but just reached out and held her little hand again.

"Master, Master?" Cong Yu seemed to be a little frightened, but because of her experience during the day, she did not react too violently. She just looked at him shyly and puzzledly with a red face.

"In fact, even the moon will change a lot in five hundred years," said Xia Zhi.

"If nothing else, the moon is actually moving away from us. In the past five hundred years, it has moved 16.4 meters away from us."

...Your old friend is actually leaving you. Xia Zhi's words seem to be saying something like this.

"..."

Cong Yu took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, wrinkled her nose, looked at him dissatisfied and said: "Master, you are really good at breaking the beautiful fantasy of girls."

To be more precise, he is very good at ruining the atmosphere, right? she thought.

"Just telling the truth." Xia Zhi replied.

After thinking for a moment, he added, "But if you want, I can pull it back."

"..."

Does that make any sense?

The girl sighed helplessly, looked down at their hands, pursed her lips slightly, hesitated for a long time, and finally leaned her head gently on his shoulder.

"Master...please stay with us a little longer." She said softly.

In response to the girl's small request, Xia Zhi gently held her hand and responded:

"It doesn't matter how long you want it to take."

Chapter 698 "Become My Cong Yu"

Although he said that, the fact was that Xia Zhi was already a little sleepy.

But, in that kind of atmosphere just now, most people wouldn't be able to say no, right?

Xia Zhi had never expected that the girl could actually sit in the yard and look at the moon for an hour or so without saying a word... Is this the patience cultivated over five hundred years?

Unfortunately, Xia Zhi himself did not have that kind of patience. He only felt that the sleepiness in his mind was getting stronger and stronger, and he had to force himself not to yawn.

...Can I go back?

He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he might fall asleep and be discovered, which would be troublesome...even though he had said it so nicely before.

Looking at the girl beside him who was quietly gazing at the moonlight in the distance, Xia Zhi thought for a moment and decided to say something to divert her attention.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Congyu."

"...Hmm?" Cong Yu came back to his senses in a trance.

"I clearly agreed to prepare a body for you, why are you so unwilling to accept it?" Xia Zhi asked.

When he first used Eluke's spare body to experience the feeling of having a body again, she was so happy and excited. But when he asked for her opinion and was ready to really create a body for her, she hesitated. She hesitated and evaded his inquiries, and kept delaying until now.

It was obvious that the girl was unwilling to accept that body.

But why? What was she worried about?

"This one……"

After hearing his words, Cong Yu subconsciously looked away, as if she wanted to avoid the question, but she soon realized that since the master had already seen through it, it would be useless for her to avoid it.

She hesitated for a while, pursed her lips, and spoke again after a moment, whispering:

"Because... I am afraid."

"Fear?"

The girl nodded slightly and continued, "I'm afraid that once I start pursuing those things, I'll never be able to go back."

She lowered her head and looked at her hands.

Since she chose to sacrifice herself and became the manager of the divine power of the Imperial Sword, she has lost her body and can only float in the air like a ghost. She no longer exists and only a few special people can see her.

I can't feel cold or warm, sweet or sour, bitter or spicy, and I can't even sleep.

Unable to communicate with anyone, unable to touch anyone, in countless lonely nights, who could know the pain, guilt and longing in her heart?

"I finally gave up all that and got used to it. If I take it back..."

I will definitely continue to desire it greedily.

If that happens, everything that has come before will be in vain.

She thought so in her heart.

"Then wouldn't it be better to just keep pursuing it?" Xia Zhi said, tilting his head.

The girl shook her head slightly: "It's not that simple."

To have means to lose.

Cong Yu has experienced the feeling of gradually losing everything once.

That's why I feel scared.

"Master, you don't know that we are not that strong." The girl said softly.

"From the very beginning, I was afraid of death, so I sacrificed myself to become a human pillar despite my father and mother's objections."
