Chapter 104

a little cold.

I looked at the heavy snow flying outside, and put my hands on the thin layer of ice on the window, but my hands didn't feel the biting cold.

The low buildings can't block the sunlight, it reflects mottledly on me through the branches covered with snow, the strange wind is gone, and only the comfortable warmth covers the whole body.

I was in a misty room, on a small round table decorated with lace, and I took a few sips of warm scented tea, and my mood was so light that I even wondered.

I suddenly heard the melodious birdsong, it sounded like a coherent and sweet song, long and sweet, I don’t know when it started, it seemed to be there all the time, but I just noticed it.My heart is beating steadily, my emotions and thoughts are like a river in early spring, the thick layer of ice melts in the sunshine slowly and peacefully, so I emptied my brain and didn't want to think about anything , I just want to stay here quietly like this forever.

I raised my head and looked for the trees outside the window, but I didn't see any birds.

I stretched out my hand to the person in front of me, but the thick fog prevented me from seeing her face clearly, so her hand came up, so I took her out of here.I was a little annoyed why there were so many people on the road, so many that they could squeeze each other's shoulders. I held that hand with some strength, fearing that the crowd would disperse us.

It seems that I still have a lot of things to do, but I don't want to think so much now, I keep those heavy things that make me feel tired, but there is always something that breaks this atmosphere - she walks very fast, I looked at her suspiciously. She got out of my hand and was submerged in the sea of ​​people in an instant. I wanted to pursue her, but more and more people stood in my way. Irritability and anxiety paralyzed my nerves. Clouds of haze surged up uncontrollably, I walked forward quickly, and the crowds along the way finally began to become sparse, until I stood under the dusk, facing the receding tide, blowing in the wind Beside the bonfire, I saw a man sitting there.

I was relieved.

I heard the chirping sound that represented tranquility again, but I still couldn't find the source——I suddenly realized that it was a voice from the depths of my heart, and I enjoyed this special silence.I tried my best to open my eyes wide, trying to see the face of the person in front of me clearly, but the fog continued here, blurring my eyes.

She opened her arms and gave me a tender hug.So I hesitated to hug her back, her body was very soft, like a dense cloud, I suspected that I was dreaming.

"What do you want?"

I heard a vague voice, like whispering in my ear, or whispering in a distant place.

"What did you get..."

I pondered quietly.

I leaned against the head of the bed and thought.I stared blankly at the monotonous room, those are the things I don’t want to touch at this moment, but it may not be long before I will force myself to touch them actively, because I have other things ——

My mind froze for a moment.

What else can I do?

Isn't it good now?

I was in extreme conflict.I lowered my head, she was still leaning against me, and I still couldn't see her face clearly, the strong thought of wanting to get the answer swept me at this moment, so I took out the mirror, but the mirror could only see Myself - blonde curly hair, blue eyes.

I seem to suddenly know what she looks like.

Suddenly there was nothing in front of me, the fog spread in front of my eyes, and the emptiness hit me in the darkness. I realized that I was trapped in a dream, and I wanted to open my eyes, but after a shudder, I am still in the void, and my self-awareness is slowly waking up. It seems that a layer of isolation film in my mind is slowly melting, and as it melts, an uneasy breath begins to pass upwards from my fingertips. Penetrating in, my breathing began to gradually become short, and inexplicable panic occupied my brain.

At this time, I suddenly remembered the voice in the "dream".

What about a good dream?

I have long since forgotten the last dream.

I was struggling desperately in the dark, and I wanted to call for help, but my throat seemed to be blocked by cotton and I couldn't make a sound.

The familiar blue fire ignited around me, but the flames were quickly extinguished. Numerous images were chaotically intertwined in my mind, and the surrounding scenes were rapidly receding. When I recovered, I lay In the soft quilt, the fear that has not completely dissipated made me start to cry unconsciously, so a woman's singing came from my ears.

Her voice was beautiful, I was fascinated, and soon quieted down.

"Sleep, sleep...

Look, the birds are coming again...

Just at the end of the moonlight, on that branch...

You will fall asleep to the singing of angels without nightmares...

You have all the best things in the world...

Go to sleep, Ashley..."

She said softly, then leaned down and kissed my forehead.

But this time, I didn't fall asleep peacefully.

My mind is still disturbed, the surrounding environment is chaotic, they can change in seconds.

"How could this be?...I can assure you that this kind of thing has never happened in the history of the Alouette family...it shouldn't have happened..."

"But now the facts are in front of us, Anais... We have to make a choice, otherwise they will all die, and we can only leave one."

"It's cruel to a child..."

"But we have no other way, don't we? Or we should think about the problem from another angle. The method to prevent the curse from taking effect has been passed down from the nineteenth century to the present. There should be no accidents. In this situation, it is just We can only continue to carry this matter forward with our own hands.”

"Do you really want to do that... Do you have to do that, there is no other way..."

"Yes...sacrifice...we can only...guarantee a healthy survivor..."

I have no time to listen to their conversation, my facial features are distorted in pain, my eyes are wide open due to fear, but my eyes are covered with a horrible blood red, I can't fully describe this feeling in words, the burning pain covers every part of my body A blood vessel, my tears and some viscous liquid flowed out of my eyes, the bones and flesh of my whole body seemed to be crushed and reorganized, and something was poured into my body from the outside world, like It is supporting my weak body and soul, making me gradually complete.I cried out to keep the excruciating pain away from me.A pair of cold hands caressed my hair and cheek soothingly.

"Don't be afraid, Ashley...it'll be over in a while...you're lucky..."

She was crying sadly, tears dripping down my face incessantly, relieving the unbearable burning sensation under every inch of my skin.

"He's pretty much a husk... let the fire of hell take him away."

"His soul will be trapped in hell for eternity and tortured, but he is our child..."

"One must be taken away, Anais. This is a mistake made by the predecessors, and it is an inescapable punishment..."

"I don't want to do that, Ender... let them take him away, put him under the ice, and let's leave him alone. At least, Ashley can stay away from this disaster."

……

My consciousness began to blur, and I lost all senses, wandering in a void.

This chapter is actually sugar, really.

Tom returned the ring to Ashley, but the seal has disappeared, Ashley will get all the memories after wearing the ring, but he knows what is in the ring (remember when he went to Ashley's father, At that time he had already seen part of the memory in the ring), so he really wanted Ashley to have a good dream, and he cast a sleeping spell on Ashley to delay the return of those memories, so her opening paragraph The dream was actually instilled in Tom's subconscious mind. That is to say, Ashley had a dream from Tom's perspective... How can I say it's a good dream? It must be the most beautiful thing in his heart, and of course he also The entanglement and confusion deep in his heart, but these, perhaps he himself does not know.

As for the second half, the memory of the ring began to return.
