17 The first experience and the lost soul
Below is an endless sea of clouds.
There is no messy blue above.
Clouds are like mountains, like seas, stacked and unfolding in infinite ways in front of your eyes.
This is the dance floor of the wind and light.
This is a world of pure white and blue.
"Cuiye" is like a small boat floating quietly on the white sea surface. Qilin opened the cabin door and stood up, raised his head, looking at the brand new world in front of him with an expression that was indescribable.
My heart was surging, passionate, and passionate... words of this level were not enough to express one ten thousandth of his mood at this moment.
The joy of being praised by the elders when practicing martial arts...
The ecstatic sense of accomplishment when I first defeated the monster...
The satisfaction of eating a roasted wild boar in one breath when you are hungry...
The feeling of joy that arises when riding a fierce horse in the wilderness...
Among the touching Qilin has had in the past, none of them can compare with the impact brought to him by the magnificent scene in front of him.
Whether it is the sea of clouds that extend infinitely under your feet...
Still the infinitely majestic clouds and mountains on the left and right...
Or the sunshine without any impurities, like a transparent gem...
There is also the wind of freedom coming towards you and passing by...
They all shocked Qilin's senses violently, their minds were blank, they could not think or do anything, they just stared at the scene in front of them, and they burst into tears at some point.
Qilin felt like a chick who had just emerged from the shell. Compared with the infinite world presented in front of him, his previous life was so pale.
Bathed in the crystal clear sunlight, Qilin felt that he had gained a new life. A passion that he had never had before was ignited at this moment and turned into a burning flame, leaving an immortal mark in his heart.
………………………………………
...When the Qilin came to his senses, "Cuiye" had already sneaked into the gray clouds again.
"Wait a minute! Wait! I want to see it again!"
Just like a child who was suddenly taken away from his beloved thing, Qilin grabbed the backrest of the driver's seat and shouted in a rough tone. But Nuoyin did not answer him, but just drove "Cuiye" quietly down.
Feeling the tilt of the body, Qilin didn't care to ask Nuo Yin anymore, but turned his head and looked at the sky farther and farther away, reaching out his hand as if he was eager for something. The look that was pressed against the glass bulkhead was as if he was about to jump out of the broken bulkhead. I don't know how long it took, until the gray clouds could no longer seep the light, Qilin slowly calmed down, and the expression on his face turned from excitement to frustration. Qilin sat down dejectedly in the back cabin, and his heart was dominated by an indescribable sense of frustration, and he couldn't even raise his mood to talk to Nuo Yin.
"The Soul Lost..." At this time, a low sigh came from Nuo Yin's mouth in front.
"...The Soul Lost?" Qilin subconsciously repeated the word.
"The soul-lossed person is the person who is imprisoned by the sky... and the son of Tianxiang who can't return to the earth once he touches the sky..." Nuo Yin murmured to himself, looking back at Qilin, her green eyes full of pity and apology. "Sorry, Qilin, I didn't expect such a thing to happen. I'm too reckless to take you to the sky casually."
"Rifly? No, that's not true! I...I'm very grateful to Nuoyin!" Qilin said to Nuoyin in an excited tone: "If Nuoyin hadn't taken me to the sky, I wouldn't have had the chance to see such a sky! The real sky is so vast and so magnificent, it's like a fantasy world! It's so great to fly in such a sky! It's so great! It's so amazing!"
Qilin's thanks did not relax Nuoyin's expression at all, but her brows frowned tighter. Qilin, who was sitting in the back cabin, could not see Nuoyin's expression, but also vaguely sensed the stagnant atmosphere in the cabin. Misunderstanding the reason for Nuoyin's silence, he scratched his head and lowered his head to apologize to Nuoyin.
"That, Noyin, just shouted at you...sorry."
"Don't care, I'm not angry." Nuo Yin responded faintly to Qilin. Her tone had no cold feeling at all, nor was there any anger at all, but just when Qilin was a little relieved, Nuo Yin announced another decision to him in an undisputed tone. "But, I will not take you to the sky again, Qilin... For you, this sky is too dangerous."
"Uh?" Qilin was stunned for a moment, but before he could protest, "Cuiye"'s body suddenly flipped ninety degrees and swooped downward.
Not long after, when Qilin was liberated from the feeling of weightlessness, "Cuiye" had already landed lightly on the apron of the Duke's Mansion. Nuoyin closed the engine and the floating mechanism, opened the hatch and flipped it out first. Although Qilin had a lot of questions to ask Nuoyin, he had to follow her out of the cabin of "Cuiye".
"Nuoyin! Wait,Nuoyin!" Qilin quickly followed Nuoyin in front. "What do you mean? Why can't I go to heaven again?"
"... Qilin." Nuoyin suddenly stopped and looked back at Qilin. There was indescribable sadness in his eyes, which made people feel a deep sense of pity.
Qilin suddenly couldn't say a word, and let Nuoyin reach out and stroke his cheek.
"Qilin, you are Chechen's younger brother and my relative. I will not do anything bad for you... Can you trust me in this?"
"Of course. I have always believed in Nuoyin." Qilin replied.
"Thank you." Nuo Yin's smile was very beautiful, and her tone was even more heart-pounding.
"You stay, Qilin. Stay in the Duke's Mansion. Charlotte always wanted to have a brother, and his father seemed to like you too, so... stay and treat the Duke's Mansion as your own home, okay?"
"Well... well, but that's OK." Qilin thought to himself, there was no reason to urgently return to Dahuang Village anyway.
"Then please promise me, don't think about the sky anymore, Qilin."
"Just...even if Noe Yin said that..."
"Obe obedient, Qilin." Nuoyin gently withdrew his hand and hugged Qilin in his arms. "There are many interesting things in the capital. After a while, I will take you to the capital to take a walk around with Charlotte... So forget what happened today, Qilin, you are not suitable for flying."
Ru's wife and sister's gentle embrace, the sweet breath floating between her nose, the Qilin, who originally wanted to protest, was defeated by this unexperienced tenderness. Until a while after Nuoyin left, she was still standing there with a blank expression.
………………………………………
When Qilin was defeated by the elder sister's gentleness, somewhere in the hangar in a corner of the tarmac, two sneaky figures were also quietly exchanging opinions.
"Look... Have you seen it, little baby?" The duke's beard trembled, and his emotions seemed quite excited.
"Well...well, Charlotte was shocked. I didn't expect Sister Noyin to take the initiative to hug the boy..." Charlotte also nodded violently.
"I just came to the Duke's Mansion and broke my family's iron heart for a day... Well, I didn't miss it. That kid is not a thing in the pool!" The Duke proudly touched his beard with a look of relief. "It seems that it is not impossible to entrust the hope of continuing the Iserre family to him..."
"But Sister Nuoyin just treats Brother Qilin as her younger brother? It's far from what my father expects?" Charlotte's words had a terrifying insight beyond his age.
"...It's really a hit, little baby." The duke's expression stagnated, then raised his head and declared with great enthusiasm: "But it doesn't matter! Even if it's a younger brother at the beginning, as long as there is a seed of hope, all that remains is the question of determination and hard work. For the father, he will transform into an impossible gardener. Even if he uses sweat and blood to water it, it will definitely make this seed of hope bear fruit!"
"Oh oh oh oh oh!" Charlotte's eyes suddenly lit up. "Sir Father! Sir Father! Let Charlotte be your assistant?"
"Well, this...well, letting you see the way you fall in love may be helpful in the future." The Duke nodded to his younger daughter. "Then, Chief of Staff Charlotte, I will take care of you in the future!"
"Well! Charlotte will try to match the two of them!"
"What to match?"
Just as the father and daughter worked together and vowed to cooperate, the voice of Qilin suddenly rang behind her back.
"Wow, ahhhh!" The two of them were shocked and screamed immediately.
"...what's wrong?" Qilin was also frightened by their attitude.
"No... nothing, don't care, haha." The Duke came back to his senses first, and was terrified by the elusive ability of the Qilin, and also smiled dryly and changed the topic. "After that being said, little brother, when did you come?"
"About 'knowing the way of adults' love'..." Qilin turned his head and showed a puzzled expression. "Uncle... no, uncle, are you discussing things? Am I disturbing you?"
Hearing Qilin say this, the duke and the little princess breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. After exchanging a meaningful sight to each other, the duke made a "tactical retreat" gesture to Charlotte, and then he went forward.
"Don't be apart, just call me uncle. Since you are the younger brother of your son-in-law, of course you are from the Isere family." The Duke patted Qilin's shoulder intimately. "By the way, is there anything you need to ask me, little brother?"
"Well, I want to discuss with the uncle if I have something to do..." Qilin showed a look of wanting to speak but stopping.
"What's going on about Noyin?" The duke's eyes emitted a hint of joy.
"Somewhat different, but... it's right." Qilin scratched his head. "Uncle, are you free now?"
