Chapter 3375 Life and Death

The sun rises and the flowers bloom and fade. The street in front of the door turned into a square of the town. The newlyweds were moved next door as neighbors. The wardrobe at home was thrown away due to insect worms, but the blanket he put on for her when the wedding escaped from the cabinet was still retained.

The house was connected to gas and steam pipes without realizing it, and the daughter born by the couple next door could knock on her door to ask if there was any sugar. The grave of the puppy who passed away many years ago was already full of blue flowers, but when he was alone in the window looking at the snow-capped mountains, the waiting people still did not come back.

The town outside the house is changing day by day, and the house is getting old day by day. The girl who looks in the mirror in the house has wrinkles in the corners of her eyes, white hair on her head, and a hunched back. However, the vivid memories of the past in her mind are still repeated in every night's dream.

More than ten years ago, my nephew came to the island and met her. At that time, she also entrusted her neighbors to take care of the house and went back to her parents' home on the old continent for a brief time. Her parents had already forgiven her for elopement before her death, but that was already the case when the little girl in the neighbor's house would climb onto the roof mischievously.

"When I briefly left the town and returned to my parents' house, I was wondering if you were waiting for me at home when I came back."

The old man with a golden face shining by the setting sun said with a smile, and while she was telling the story, the ghoul just stood hunched over, saying the word "Miranda" intermittently, and his body swayed with the wind.

Mrs. Otto didn't care about the two young people listening by her side. She just talked about the path she should have walked with the people around her for a lifetime, and the stories she should have experienced with the people around her for a lifetime.

If you miss it, it cannot be saved. She just wants to fulfill their original promises before the end of her life and devote each other's life to each other, even in this way.

The sun gradually sets westward, and the dizzying light shines on the old man in the twilight. But her voice is still soft. She does not tell how lonely and depressed she is in the waiting half a century. She just wants to give her life that has been late for more than fifty years and cherish this last little time.

The white-haired young girl standing behind the wheelchair had her eyes red at some point, while Xia De and Xiao Mia did not go to see the old man and the ghoul. Their eyes crossed the town below and looked into the distance of the sea level, watching the sun sinking little by little below the sea level.

During the old lady's storytelling, Xia De also turned around and transferred the unconscious Mr. Mayer and others to their carriage, and let the people and the coachman in the carriage sleep. Then he threw out his crystal shoes and left for a while for dozens of minutes. Although he missed some things from the 1820s, neither those who focused on listening to the story nor those who told the story noticed his brief departure.

Finally, when the last ray of light remained in the winter sun, Mrs. Otto's story also told the story of two young people from other places who found her on this Sunday afternoon with a good weather and brought her here.

The old man's voice disappeared. She did not look at her husband anymore, but turned her head to look at the lights gradually rising in the town below. If it weren't for the malice of fate, she could have experienced countless such evenings with her husband, and could have been surrounded by children and grandchildren at this age and told them the stories of the past.

And now, the story is over.

"Miranda"

Mr. Otto said this again, his voice still hoarse and unpleasant:

"I'm back"

He still said, turning his head in the direction of the old woman.

"I, I, I"

The stuttering sound seemed to want to repeat the sentence just now, but the final words were said:

"I've been thinking about you all the time, and I've always wanted to come back."

Mrs. Otto's shoulders were trembling, and even if she could only see her side face, Shade knew that she was crying. Miss Larson really covered her mouth and cried out. This was a sentimental girl.

"Miranda, sorry, Miranda, I'm back."

He was repeating the words he had just said, and then he said a brand new sentence again. His hoarse voice actually felt emotional at this moment:

"I've been back for this life, thank you for your hard work."

Xia De moved his finger and made the wheelchair turn completely toward Mr. Otto. He knew this was wrong, but after sighing in his heart, he still let the wheelchair approach the ghost.

So her arms were opened, and the living and dead who had missed fifty years hugged each other, and the old man finally burst into tears. She cried very sadly and cried very hard. After all, this was her unwillingness and grievances throughout her life, a complaint throughout her life, and a tears shed for the final reunion after waiting for her life.

The cat yawned in the comfortable sea breeze and looked at the scene boringly. Then it saw the white-haired human female pounce on Xia De, and buried her head in his arms and sobbing.

Although this would not squeeze the cat standing on Xia De's shoulder, it still meowed to express its dissatisfaction.

Xia De patted Miss Larson's back gently. The story was indeed very touching. As for whether it was a tragedy, Dorothy would judge it later. This is a tragedy.

The sun in the distance disappeared completely under the coastline with the crying sounds on the low cliffs. The dusk always passed quickly. When Miss Larson covered her face and left Xia De's arms, she sucked her nose first, and then noticed that there was an upside-down sea of ​​stars above her head:

"Sorry, I'm out of my composure."

Xia De shook his head:

"It's okay, I understand."

Then he looked at the couple who were still hugging each other:

"The last wish has come true, so now it's time."

Although it is cruel, Xia De must say this sentence:

"Mr. Mayer and I put them in the carriage, but I will catch a cold if I lie down in this season. Mrs. Otto, your gentleman is leaving."

"Where is he going?"

asked the sobbing and weak old man.

"Go to that place he should have been to."

Although the "Gate of Death" is one-way and will not have any impact on the living world, Shade still does not want to open the gap in front of the elderly Mrs. Otto.

Just now, while she was telling a story, Xia De temporarily returned home and went to the attic [St. White Hall] to replace the blessings of the old god from "the innocent creator" to "the God of the Ferryman".

He thus lost the ability to turn people who voluntarily turn into toys, but he gained the ability to "boat on dry land" (Chapter 2741).

At this moment, as the snow and mud on the ground surged, the familiar small wooden boat slowly rose from the ground, causing the ground to echo. The "artifact" oar given by the god was placed on the small wooden boat. Xia De patted Miss Larson and asked her to let go of her arm, handed the girl who felt a little chill after crying a coat, then took the cat onto the boat, picked up the oar and stood at the stern:

"It's time to leave."

Mr. Otto, the Ghost, pushed his wife away, and looked at her for the last time while the latter shook his head and red eyes to keep up with her, and then turned around and climbed onto Xiade's boat.

The old woman who was sobbing was falling back into the wheelchair. Miss Larson wanted to comfort her, but the old woman asked:

"Can I help me up? I want to stand and say goodbye to him."

The white-haired girl carefully helped the old man up, but did not dare to let her approach the strange wooden boat. The old man sobbed and waved his hand to say goodbye to the people on the boat, and his hoarse voice assured:

"Goodbye, Ralph. This time, you're waiting for me to come to you."

Mr. Otto shook his head constantly:

"Miranda, Miranda, no, don't rush to find me, I, I, I will wait for you."

“We’re leaving.”

Xia De said, nodding to Miss Larson, and gently touching the ground with the oar in his hand, the boat slid towards the edge of the cliff ahead as if it was sliding on the water.

Amid the crying of Mrs. Otto standing there, supported by Miss Larson, the boat continued to speed up. Xiade had found the direction to death. He thought the boat would smoothly enter the dark waters at the edge of the cliff, but he did not expect the boat to rush out from the edge of the cliff.

"Um?"

Xia De was shocked, and then the boat left ripples in the air and flew towards the starry sky above his head. He didn't know what was going on. It seemed that the blessing of the "Ferryer God" played a role, but why "dry boating" could make the boat fly is really a difficult problem.

The two ladies on the edge of the cliff looked up as the boat in the air grew higher and higher, and suddenly the corpse of the ghoul sitting on the boat suddenly rushed up. But instead of jumping into the boat, he yelled at the bottom of the boat:

"Miranda~Miranda~I will always wait for you. You have been waiting for me for fifty years, and I can also wait for you for a hundred years. Don't rush to see me, I will always wait for you, don't rush to find me."

At this moment, his voice magically returned to normal, and the unmelted frost remaining on the surface of the corpse also melted in the process, and then turned into silver-blue dots of light dragged behind the boat.

The silver-blue lights spread to the small town under the starry sky with thousands of lights, but more of them fell towards the cliff.

Mrs. Otto raised her hand and watched a small ice-blue flower fall on the palm of her hand. After the light fell on Miss Larson beside her, the "Other Me" in her ear whispered to remind-

[Stella, your soul has the ability to accommodate more frost and cold powers. Congratulations, you have once again digested part of the power of the holy object "Winter Movement".]
