Chapter 57
Chapter 57
"Okay," Pei Yan lay on the cold ground, his white shirt lazily unbuttoned below his collarbone, revealing his fair skin, "So you just want to visit the prison?"
"No baby, this is not a prison, this is the backyard of a holy church," Arthur was sitting next to him, his snow green eyes looked at the young man's collarbone with a smile, and he raised his eyebrows, "Baby, you haven't heard of it Is this church here? Hundreds of years later, it is said that all lovers who have prayed here will finally get married."
"Great, and then they will tie us to the cross and burn us to death," Pei Yan looked at him expressionlessly, "and I don't want to sit on such a cold ground at all."
"You can sit on me." Arthur blinked and approached him, "Try sitting on it without clothes... it will be warmer."
"..."
Pei Yan brushed his hair, didn't bother to talk to Arthur, and turned his gaze to the boy who had been silent all this time.
"Twain," Pei Yan lowered his voice as much as possible. The young man's face was terribly pale, much worse than the cute and shy look before. Yes, after all, 600 years have passed, "You haven't Tell us... why are you so sure that Caesar's soul is not on Caesar's body."
Tang En lost his mind and said: "...the little bird told me."
"...Little bird?" Pei Yan was taken aback for a moment. Speaking of the little bird, he really quickly remembered the little red-billed seagull that always landed on Tang En's shoulder. It would be absurd to just rely on a single bird.
"The little bird...was given to me by the God of the Sea," Tang En said softly, then buried his head in his knees, his voice muffled, "The God of the Sea told me that the little bird can help me condense Caesar's soul, But that day... the little bird said no."
Probably in order to comply with Tang En's words, a soft cry came from the head, and the little red-billed seagull flapped its wings, and against the bright morning light, it stood peacefully on top of the small window on the top.
Its eyeballs were very black, but also very bright. It combed its feathers politely, then gently landed on Tang En's shoulder, and the scarlet letter's beak lightly tapped Tang En's head buried in his knees.
Like soothing.
Soothe...?
Pei Yan stared blankly at the seagull for a moment, then something flashed through his mind.
"Arthur..."
"Huh?" Arthur looked up, "What's the matter, baby."
"The day you went ashore," Pei Yan felt that he had caught something, but it was not obvious, "what was the poem you read that day?"
"Hmm... the poem from that day?" Arthur thought for a while, then his snow-green eyes lightened slightly, and he turned to look at the little red-billed seagull on Tang En's shoulder, "Ah, I remembered."
"The furthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death," Arthur walked to Pei Yan, lowered his head and touched Pei Yan's head, "it's when I stand in front of you, but you don't know that I love you." you."
"Yes," Pei Yan was stunned, and looked at Tang En, "And the last sentence..."
"Behind... well," Arthur said thoughtfully, with a voice as gentle as every wandering poet, "the furthest distance in the world is the distance between fish and birds."
"One roams the sky, while the other dives deep into the sea." Pei Yan subconsciously continued.
Tang En didn't pay much attention to their conversation at the beginning. The white scaled species with a very powerful forehead is a very...shameless old hooligan, and his lover is a white scaled species with a good temper. They are also male. Boys, but they are doing well.
I'm so envious, Tang En would also be slightly envious, but at this time, he didn't really want to see them look too sweet, because... it would be sad.
But the last two lines of poems suddenly came into his mind deeply.
He was indeed a little mermaid with no brain at heart, so he was stunned for a long time before raising his head with his mouth open in astonishment.
——"Sea God, he is a very bad... and stingy guy."
Arthur's words were still vivid in his mind, Pei Yan felt his throat was a little tight, and he didn't know why, but it was just... inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Twain, have you ever thought that the seagull that Sea God gave you...is your Mr. Caesar."
"Cesis..." Tang En repeated in a daze, "Little Bird..."
He turned his head, his face was still pale, but he seemed to come alive at that moment.
His water-colored eyes were still a little silly, and he stared at the little seagull lightly.
That kind of gaze was too light, cautious and gentle, as if the little seagull in front of him would be shattered into powder as long as the gaze was heavy.
The little red-billed seagull quietly turned its head and looked back at Tang En.
For 600 years, Tang En felt that he was always alone, only the little seagull with red beak landed on his shoulder when he went out of the shore.
But Tang En still felt very lonely... That kind of loneliness couldn't be solved just because someone around greeted him, and the little seagull couldn't even speak.
He never thought too much about the little seagull, the little seagull was just a gift from the sea god, and he even once thought that the little seagull was just a part of the illusion.
That's why he didn't realize that the little seagull is a... always gentle bird, and the way it combs its feathers is surprisingly polite, and the feathers are always combed perfectly... even though it is just a little bird. Bird, but a very...very little bird about appearance.
The little bird is very gentle, and most of the time he will look at him quietly, it is a coincidence... It seems that every time he goes ashore, the little bird will land on his shoulder.
It's like... a welcome.
If the little bird wasn't a part of Seagod, Tang En suddenly thought, his heart ached so numb.
If the bird isn't part of Poseidon... is it because the bird is always looking at the sea, so every time he comes out of the shore, the bird lands on his shoulders.
But the little bird...why do you keep looking at the sea?
He held his head up and looked at it quietly.
He thought sadly... No, he thought sadly.
Why does the little bird keep...keep looking at the sea.
He looked lightly at the little bird that landed on his shoulder, it was so small, it weighed almost nothing, he couldn't even feel its existence... and he did often ignore it.
But as soon as he thought... the little bird was Caesar, his tears would fall unconsciously.
Mr. Nishizawa...is a very proud young man, because of his pride, he will feel a little awkward when he is unhappy.
Nishizawa who is loved so much by this world.
If Xiaoniao is really Caesar, then... Caesar must have been wronged all these years.
The blade cut silently in his heart.
"Caesar..." Tang En paused for a long time, his voice was so harsh that he tried many times before he found his own voice, "Cesis...is that you."
The little seagull still looked at him quietly, with two eyes as black as obsidian looking at Tang En quietly, without any movement.
Tang En felt that his heart was hanging again, and he couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or despair.
But suddenly... He opened his eyes in a daze, not even daring to close them for a second.
Under the little seagull's dark eyes, tiny teardrops suddenly overflowed.
It was so small that it was almost invisible, but it slightly wetted the fluff at the corners of its eyes.
Birds...can they cry?
Tang En stretched out a palm and put it on his shoulder. The little seagull moved its head, looked at Tang En's white palm, then lowered its head and lightly touched Tang En's palm with its red beak.
"Cesis..." Tang En's voice was choked up, and he called softly, "...Cesis."
The call seemed like a spell, the little seagull spread its wings and landed on the ground.
There was no dazzling light. Tang En lowered his head and watched the figure of the little seagull gradually become transparent, and then a... figure that he had been waiting for for many, many years slowly appeared.
From a transparent and formless appearance, it slowly condenses into a form.
Tang En wiped away his tears, he was still squatting on the ground, he could only see the other party's slender legs, but he didn't have to look up anymore, he clearly felt that his soul was passing slowly at an unhurried speed .
——"Exchange your soul for his soul."
He gently wiped away his tears, raised his head, the redness at the corners of his eyes had not faded from his innocent and delicate face, but he tried his best to squeeze out a smile as a final farewell to Caesar.
"Long time no see... Caesar."
However, when he raised his head, his pupils shrank. The always handsome and aloof young man lowered his eyebrows, and there was a glint of water. The long water stains fell down his handsome chin, and just landed on Tang En's lips. superior.
Caesar's tears... are also cold and not sweet.
"Idiot..." Caesar spoke softly, his voice was still so nice, even though it was so hoarse now, it was still so... so nice in Tang En's eyes.
He hugged the boy under him into his arms, as if he said goodbye to the polite little seagull as soon as he returned to his human form, he hugged the blond boy very hard.
"I knew you wouldn't be smart..." The young man choked up, his nose resting on the boy's soft hair, and gently sniffing the boy's scent, "I will definitely not be able to find me...but it doesn't matter, because I I've been waiting for you too, so I know... I'll wait."
The inexplicable god said: You can only appear if he recognizes you as Caesar.
You can't express it, and you can't deny it. You can only wait until he puts all his eggs in his trust and believes that you are Caesar.
In the first year, he thought, it's okay, Tang En is not smart, it's normal to be unexpected.
He listened to the other party's missing, still very sweet.
In the tenth year, he thought, it doesn't matter, it's been ten years anyway, take your time, Tang En is not smart.
He listened to the other party's thoughts, feeling a little helpless.
At the 100th year, he thought... Forget it, it would be good to continue like this, anyway, he has been waiting for 100 years.
He listened to the other party's thoughts, and could only silently respond with the most gentle response.
Before Tang En felt that his tears were about to dry up, but when he smelled Caesar's body, he realized that it was not enough.
"I'm sorry, Caesar..." Tang En said in a low voice, his body trembling violently, just like his voice, "I'm really...too stupid."
"...Well, even if I say that, I'm still very angry." Caesar stretched out a hand and wiped away the water stains from the corners of the boy's eyes. Although his own face was still too wet, he tried his best to smile, which was very A gentle smile, different from Caesar's before, "So from now on, you have to listen to me in everything."
Tang En nodded, feeling the temperature of the youth's fingers on his face.
But it was too late for Caesar, Tang En thought in his heart, if there is a chance, I would always listen to you, but now... I am going to die again.
This time, it was really going to disappear completely.
Sorry it took so long...to find you.
