Chapter 554

When Xia Xiaoyun got up in the morning, she squatted in front of the tree and sprinkled water with a watering can.

Spray twice a day, once in the morning and once after work in the afternoon.

Laura felt that Xia Xiaoyun, who had become helpless after Fangyuan's death, might take the pomegranate tree as spiritual sustenance. In addition to eating and resting at home, she would sit in front of the tree and stare at it in a daze most of the time.

She also felt that when Xia Zong was in a daze, he must be communicating spiritually with the flowers and trees that should have died.

That tree, like Fang Yuan, should persuade Xia Xiaoyun not to "make two" again, but to live a good life like a normal person -- after the pomegranate tree sprouted, it really made two summers more than ten times, and it really became normal.

Like before.

There are also some differences, because President Xia never stared at an object for several hours before.

Under Xia Xiaoyun's careful care, the dead and reborn pomegranate tree is almost the same every day. It can be said to thrive, bloom in the flowering season, and bear a fruit when it bears fruit.

Now it is late autumn, and pomegranates are already on the market.

The fruit of Fang's family is ripe, and cracks have appeared on the peel.

But Laura knew that Xia Xiaoyun would never pick it -- her eyes looking at the fruit were like looking at her lover.

It's just a pity that even the death and rebirth of this pomegranate tree is really enough for Laura to be shocked and inexplicable, but it can't become a square after all. It can only be regarded as the spiritual sustenance of Xia Xiaoyun at most.

"How long can this pomegranate stay in the tree before it can fall down by itself?"

Just when Laura was thinking, she heard Xia Xiaoyun ask.

After blinking her eyes, Laura said, "I checked on the Internet that pomegranates will crack when they mature, and the seeds will fall down by themselves. Finally, the peel will be blown down by the cold wind. The pomegranate falls by itself. It's almost a month away. "

"Yes."

Xia Xiaoyun made a sound, finally stopped staring at the pomegranate tree, turned and looked at Laura: "do you think that every time I look at the pomegranate in a daze, I'm thinking about the surrounding area?"

Laura didn't expect that Xia would always ask her this question. She was a little stunned before she lowered her eyes and said, "yes."

"You think I regard this tree, the only fruit, as a circle, don't you?"

Xia Xiaoyun asked again.

This time Laura did not hesitate, nodded and said, "well, that's what I think."

"You're wrong."

Xia Xiaoyun said.

Laura was dazed again. "Am I wrong?"

"After Fang Yuan died, the tree also died."

Xia Xiaoyun picked up her chopsticks, grabbed some pickles at will, put them in her mouth and chewed them slowly, saying, "so this tree has nothing to do with him."

"President Xia, isn't he still alive?"

Laura quickly reminded, "didn't the flower demon tell you that as long as you are safe, Fangyuan won't die?"

"Do you think it's possible?"

Xia Xiaoyun asked.

"Since the pomegranate tree can come back from death, it may not be dead."

Laura looked at the pomegranate tree and asked with a puzzled face, "President Xia, didn't you also believe that he wasn't dead at that time? Why now --"

"I believed it at that time, but after the tree sprouted, I didn't believe it."

Xia Xiaoyun knocked the plate with chopsticks and said faintly, "Laura, you may not know that I made a wish when I insisted on planting the tree upside down."

"Make a wish?"

Laura looked up in a daze. As soon as she wanted to say something, she suddenly understood: "if this tree can survive, it will prove that Fangyuan is really dead -- this is your wish."

A flower tree that has rotted from its leaves to its roots is planted upside down in a dead place that claims to have no vitality -- then the hope of this flower tree to survive can only be said to be unique.

Because it was 100% certain that the pomegranate tree would never live again, Xia Xiaoyun, who suddenly rebelled when planting, made a wish: if Fangyuan really died, let it germinate, blossom and bear fruit.

If someone knew that she had made such a wish, he would laugh and say that she was more stupid than a fool's dream.

Xia Xiaoyun doesn't want people to laugh at her. She just wants to use this special way of wishing to stubbornly hope that Fang Yuan is not dead as the flower demon said.

But what happened?

But the pomegranate tree really sprouted, blossomed and bear fruit.

Laura didn't know how nervous Xia Xiaoyun was when she dug a deep pit to observe whether the pomegranate tree sprouted: she was extremely afraid that her wish would come true.

But it really came true.

Fangyuan, you will die.

This is Xia Xiaoyun's idea when she smiles happily on the surface but cries loudly in her heart after seeing that pomegranate flower roots begin to sprout.

At that moment, she was really silent.

The flower demon once told her that as long as she lived, Fangyuan would not die -- but if Fangyuan died, could she live?

Definitely not.

Although no one told her that after her death, she would no longer be useful to the world and would only increase the variables of anxiety. In order to ensure safety, she had to evaporate these things from the world, but she could guess it faintly.

As the saying goes, when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks -- if the cunning rabbit dies, what is the need for her to live?

At most, she just didn't know when she would die, so she stared at the fruit and asked Laura when it would fall.

The fruit falls and Xia Xiaoyun dies.

After guessing what wish Xia Xiaoyun made, Laura naturally guessed again that she had felt her own death, when she was ripe.

"Summer, summer president, this can't be true."

Laura, who thought everything clearly, suddenly became nervous, reached out and grabbed Xia Xiaoyun's hand. She said in a quack, "your wish is just a game representing bad luck in the surrounding area, which has nothing to do with yourself! As for fruit ripeness, falling behind is your death -- more and more without any scientific basis! "

"Scientific basis?"

Xia Xiaoyun smiled, patted Laura on the back of her hand with her backhand and said softly, "there are some things that science can't explain. You know as well as me, don't you?"

"I..."

Laura opened her mouth and was speechless.

Long before she came to China, she believed in science and would not believe that there would be ghosts and monsters in the world. As for those world-famous unsolved mysteries, such as Stonehenge and resurrection Island stone man, at most, she has not found a scientific explanation.

But after following Xia Xiaoyun to Lop Nur and feeling the eternal ancient mystery from thousands of years ago, she immediately became very interested in Chinese traditional culture.

Especially after listening to Pan Long's words and witnessing the death of the living door, I believe that the area has been exposed to a nuclear leak and is still alive in tens of trillions of tons of magma.

Science, there is no reason to prove that such a person can survive in that environment.

That's why Xia Xiaoyun 'reminded' her: you don't believe in science, so don't comfort me with science.

"I can't explain how I can conclude that I can't live too long, but when I saw it survive and blossom and bear fruit, I knew that after its fruit fell to the ground, it was my death."

Xia Xiaoyun smiled and comforted Laura in a soft voice: "well, don't worry about me. In our Chinese words, all this is my life. My life should be like this. No matter how hard I struggle, it won't help -- I accept my life and won't resist again. "

"President Xia, do you remember the legend we saw on the Internet a few days ago?"

Laura doesn't want Xia Xiaoyun to be overwhelmed by the shadow of death, so she quickly reminds her.

"You mean that some people exploring in Lop Nur met a man who claimed to be Fang Yuan?"

Xia Xiaoyun smiled again: "if I had put it before, I would go to Lop Nur to find him regardless of everything. But now, I won't. Because I don't want those people hiding in the dark to see me running around in embarrassment to believe rumors in order to live. "

Laura was stunned: "you, you mean that the rumors around Lop Nur were deliberately spread by those who prevented you from being together?"

"They really thought I was a brain cripple."

The corners of Xia Xiaoyun's mouth curved with obvious sarcasm: "even if I was really a brain cripple before, any brain cripple will grow in mind after so many hardships.

After eating a pickle again, Xia Xiaoyun said faintly: "the reason why I survived the ordeal before is that Fang Yuan and I play a very important role in both this world and that world. But now Fang Yuan is really dead, so I am of no use to the world, but I have become an unstable factor to the world. "

Looking up at Laura, Xia Xiaoyun suddenly asked, "if you think some unstable factor will threaten you, what will you do?"

"Completely solve it!"

Laura answered without thinking.

"Yes, that's it."

Xia Xiaoyun raised her hand, stretched out her amorous waist and said, "that's why the people in the dark world will kill me. But they didn't do it because they couldn't determine whether Fang Yuan was really dead or pretended to be dead. The people who are alive are the ones who spread the rumors, so they are the ones who are hesitating. "

Laura frowned and asked, "they spread rumors that they are still alive in order to protect you as much as possible?"

"Wrong."

Xia Xiaoyun sneered: "they just want to use me to deal with the evil things in the dark world - I will die, just like Fangyuan, but before I die, they have to squeeze the use value clean."

Laura looked at the sneering Xia Xiaoyun, motionless as if she were stupid.

She has been stunned by President Xia's analysis.

In her impression, Xia Xiaoyun is not so "wise". She is calm and even cold-blooded. When she mentions her death, she has no slightest fear,

Summer has always changed.

Completely changed.

When she thought of this sentence, Laura suddenly remembered that President Xia, who used to cry all the time, seemed to have never cried in the past six months. Although I always go home in a daze, I always feel like a spring breeze when I am in the company.

"Laura, this is our last day together. Tomorrow, you go home. I've made out all the checks for you. "

When Laura was in a daze, she heard Xia Xiaoyun say so.

"What?"

Laura suddenly jumped in the corner of her eyes and immediately understood: "President Xia, you, you want to drive me away!"

"There is no feast that never ends, right?"

Xia Xiaoyun asked with a smile.

"Yes."

Laura was silent for a long time before nodding, "but I won't leave you!"
