Because she was too full during the day, Chu Qianxun woke herself up in the middle of the night for an unprecedented time. She rubbed her indigestion stomach and got up to go to the bathroom.

There were lights on in the corridors, lights on the stairs, and warm yellow lights all the way. Ye Peitian's bedroom is brightly lit.

Chu Qianxun rubbed his eyes and walked over. Ye Peitian was wrapped in a white bandage and a coat over his shoulders. He was leaning against the bed and reading a book intently.

His bed was covered with bedding and pillows that Chu Qianxun bought, and he barely looked like a person lives.

Chu Qianxun looked at his watch at four o'clock in the morning. The man didn't seem to mean to sleep at all.

"Why don't you sleep?" Chu Qianxun knocked on the door lightly.

The man raised his head to look at her. There were no scars on his face, his eyebrows were clean and refreshing, and the dark circles that hung under his eyes had disappeared because of adequate sleep during the two days.

Because of his strong recovery ability, he stayed up late into the night with his injuries, and he was still full of energy. Chu Qianxun didn't know how he stayed up all night to leave such thick dark circles.

Chu Qianxun knew that Ye Peitian was afraid of the darkness. He was locked in a dark warehouse and was forced to stay with a brutal monster for three months, thus suffering from severe darkness phobia. He is afraid of being alone in the dark, afraid of falling asleep in the dark.

But she didn't expect this person to spend every night without sleeping day and night.

Ye Peitian closed the book without speaking.

"You're still a wounded, you should rest more." Chu Qianxun sat down beside his bed and picked up the book he had just put down, "You go to sleep, I'll stay with you for a while."

"Onehundredyearsofsolitude" is a lonely and lonely book.

She raised her hand, and a slight whirlwind passed by, extinguishing several lights in the house and corridor.

The light in the room softened, Chu Qianxun turned the pages of the book, and sat on the edge of Ye Peitian's bed to read a paragraph in the book.

"We tend to be on the ancient journey of life, running through ups and downs, nirvana in frustration, sorrow entangled all over the body, pain floating all over the place. We are tired, but we can't stop; we are suffering, but we can't avoid it...."

Outside the huge windows, the sky is high, and the shining stars in the sky stare at everything on earth forever.

The night in the desert was very quiet, and Chu Qianxun's soft reading sound accompanied by the wind in the depths of the desert, scattered away.

Ye Peitian slowly lay down in the warm quilt. The quilt was soft and comfortable, wrapping his body, giving him a sense of happiness being taken care of.

He didn't know when he relaxed little by little and fell into sleep.

In his dream, he was standing in an endless desert, and endless darkness poured in from the edge of the desert, quickly soaking the silver-white sand grains, and attacking him under his feet.

He backed all the way, straight back to the edge of the steep cliff. The other side of the cliff was full of soft white flowers. The shining petals were gently swaying in the breeze. The man sat among the flowers, flipping a book, Lang read the scroll aloud, her voice was like winter spring and spring, touching.

There was a strong desire in Ye Peitian's heart, eager to walk by her side, but there was a huge and bottomless gap between them.

He could only stand on the very edge of the cliff, staring at the man's drooping eyebrows.

Look up and take a look at me. If she wants to take a look at me, I am willing to jump from here.

He thought so in his dream.

"All the splendor that has ever been in life, it turns out that in the end, it needs to be repaid with loneliness." The man lowered his head and smiled, slowly reading the words in the book.

The darkness spread to Ye Peitian's feet and climbed onto his body along his inevitable legs, covering his face.

Ye Peitian woke up from his dream.

It was dawn, and Chu Qianxun was sitting beside his bed and fell asleep. She tilted her head against the cabinet beside the bed, sleeping soundly, the book was still turned over on her lap.

Ye Peitian stared at her sleeping face, and fell on her palm again.

She put her hands on the pages of the book, just revealing a line of the pages, "Only when the mist in my heart is washed away with water, will glory illuminate the original dream."

Ye Pei Tian stared at that hand for a long time, and the sentence in front of the finger. The finger was very slender and well-proportioned, but it was covered with all kinds of old and new scars that shouldn't be there. Ye Peitian stretched out his hand and carefully wrapped it around the small palm. He was so close that he could almost feel the temperature of the opponent's skin, but he never held it down for the last time.

Am I really qualified to hold such a hand?

He closed his eyes and retracted his palm.

Not too far away from this castle, there is a small oasis with a bend of clear water surrounded by sparse bushes.

Early in the morning, Chu Qianxun carried two buckets to the lake to fetch water.

She has lived here for several days without knowing it. Ye Peitian’s injury has long since healed too much, but the man’s cooking skills are too superb. He can cook in a variety of ways every day, making Chu Qianxun coveted. Ruler meals. Chu Qianxun, who had eaten chaffy vegetables for five years in the wasteland era, couldn't bear this temptation, and couldn't help staying day after day.

Every day, she said to herself that this is the last day and she must return to her home tomorrow. But the next morning, when the smell from the kitchen awakened her from sleep, she couldn't help but find a reason for herself to stay one day longer.

Every night, the man would sit in the room waiting for her with restrained expectations, so she formed the habit of going to his bed to read a book for him before going to bed until he watched him fall asleep.

"It's so delicious and lazy to cook." Chu Qianxun looked at himself in the lake, and washed his face in the cold lake water.

The sparse low shrubs surround the lake, and the edge of the lake is abruptly traversed by a damaged viaduct. Most of the bridge pillars are buried deep in the yellow sand, revealing only a small section of the road eroded by the yellow sand, and those inserted on both sides of the road. The rusty street lights show that this uninhabited desert area was once a densely populated living area in the golden age.

This is the only water source within a radius of tens of miles, and many wild animals in the desert have come to the lake in the early morning.

There are foxes with probes, huge camels, and even a few wild wolves.

They are not afraid of Chu Qianxun. Of course, Chu Qianxun is not afraid of them. She even plans to catch a fox or two back home with great interest and add some meat to today's lunch.

She lives in Ye Peitian’s castle, nominally she wants to take care of the seriously injured friend, but Ye Peitian is very diligent. Not only does she arrange three meals, but the whole castle can also be cleaned up easily with a power. .

Chu Qianxun, who is not as embarrassed, can only do small things like fetching water and buying vegetables.

After the arrival of the Demon Seed, the number of humans on the planet dropped sharply, and the highly industrialized civilization was destroyed overnight, but the entire planet was well restored. Wild animals that were rarely seen before are now easy to find in the wild. If it weren't for the horrible monsters that can be seen everywhere, with the current population, relying on gathering and hunting to survive, it would not be too difficult to live.

On the opposite side of the lake came a slight footstep, and a young man in armor and a longbow came out of the bushes.

Chu Qianxun and him looked at each other, both showing wary eyes.

On the high ground not far away, the Emperor Huangsha who quietly followed him, saw a strange enemy suddenly appear in front of Chu Qianxun, his face sank, and his palms clenched in the air.

"How come there are women in such a place, hey, are you the woman of that human demon?" the young and immature warrior said.

Huang Sha, who was almost about to attack the young soldier, fluttered on the ground in time because of this sentence and broke into the sand.

"How do you guys talk, I am a villager from Balang Base, of course I come here to hunt and fetch water." Chu Qianxun has been in the Wasteland Era for five years, and has developed a good skill at talking nonsense. "But I have never seen you before. Where did you come from?"

"Did the villagers of Barang dare to come to the desert?" The young man was stunned by Chu Qianxun as expected, and began to follow Chu Qianxun's thoughts. "This is the residence of Demon Ye Peitian, can you tell me Aren't you afraid to offend the Huangsha Emperor?"

"We are not afraid of him. You don't know if you don't stay here. Although Ye Peitian is known as a human being, he actually doesn't kill ordinary people indiscriminately." Chu Qianxun seemed to let go of his guard and began to talk easily. The arm behind him has carefully grasped the handle of the knife, "This guy often comes to our town to buy things, and every time he gives a demon species better than others. People who live in the town are used to him."

"Oh? Is this really the case? How did I hear that it was a murderous demon." The young soldier scratched his head, "In that case, do you know where Ye Peitian's castle is?"

"The dwelling of the human demon is very dangerous, I dare not go. I heard that the location of the castle changes from time to time, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it." Chu Qianxun said with a smile, "You came to the desert to find the human demon alone. What does the castle do?"
