The breeze caressed the leaves, and the sounds of the forest, accompanied by the ups and downs of the elves' calls, reached my ears.
Zhao Chen opened his eyes and saw patches of dappled sunlight shining down from among the trees, surrounded by a fresh smell unique to the forest.
"Where is this place, meow?"
Miao Miao rubbed her head and stood up from the ground, saying with a headache.
Hearing this voice, Zhao Chen suddenly reacted. The previous scenes appeared in his mind, the fairy elves... the resurrected Celebi... the ripples in time and space.
So, this is? Another time and space!
"Brother, are you okay?" Zhao Jin helped Xiao Qiyue stand up from the ground, while the fairy elf on the side looked around curiously.
"It's okay, where is Celebi?"
Zhao Chen slapped his butt that felt strange a few times. Perhaps it was because of the dew that had just fallen on it. The grass was wet, and the feeling of his pants being soaked with water made him very uncomfortable.
"Eh?" Zhao Jin looked around, but found no trace of Celebi.
A bad idea suddenly popped up in Zhao Chen's mind. Celebi wouldn't mistakenly think that they were bad people and run away, right?!
What should they do now? How should they go back to the future?
It is undoubtedly very difficult to find traces of Celebi in the huge forest.
"It really gives the cat a headache, meow!" Meow also realized this situation and said melancholy.
"I know this road! This is the era I lived in!" Xiao Qiyue said happily: "Brother, I will take you to my home!"
Zhao Chen and Zhao Jin looked at each other, and it seemed like this was the only way they could do it for now.
So the two of them and the two cats, led by Xiao Qiyue, walked through the forest and walked forward along the trodden path.
Along the way, Zhao Chen saw many elves, some of which are difficult to see in modern times, such as Green Onion Duck, Eggy, Poison Rose, etc.
Fifty years ago, time could change so many things. Who could have imagined that in the future, towering buildings and factories would rise on such a vast land.
Soon, Zhao Chen and Zhao Jin entered the village under the leadership of Xiao Qiyue.
At the entrance of the village, an old man with a hoe in his hand looked at the group of people in disbelief. He rubbed his eyes as if to confirm something.
"Hello Grandpa Niu!"
Xiao Qiyue took the initiative to say hello.
The old man threw away the hoe and said excitedly: "Is it really Xiao Qiyue? Where have you been in the past two days?"
"I was transported to other eras by the sound of the forest." Xiao Qiyue said sheepishly.
Grandpa Niu sighed and said: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, go back and have a look, your grandma will be very anxious if she can't find you!"
"Okay." Xiao Qiyue nodded and immediately ran towards a house.
Zhao Chen paused for a moment, then turned around and said, "Hello grandpa, can you tell me how many days have passed since Xiao Qiyue disappeared?"
"Two days have passed." Grandpa Niu looked at the clothes of the two people and asked, "You are not from this era, are you?"
"Well, an accident happened and we were brought here from the future by Celebi." Zhao Chen nodded.
"Thank you for taking care of little Qiyue these days." Grandpa Niu thanked him, his eyes full of sincerity and simplicity.
"Xiao Qiyue is also very sensible." Zhao Chen sniffed, he was telling the truth. In order to repay them these days, Xiao Qiyue started doing housework every day when they were not paying attention.
While thinking about it, Zhao Chen couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The human acceptance ability in the elven world is indeed extraordinary. He can be so calm when he hears about traveling through time and space.
"Brother, it seems we can't go back..." Zhao Jin said worriedly.
Zhao Chen also had a headache. Who would have thought that this would happen before.
At this time, Xiao Qiyue helped an old woman walk out of the wooden house. When she saw Zhao Chen and Zhao Jin, the old woman knelt down to thank them.
Zhao Chen was stunned and immediately reached out to help her up: "Grandma, you can't do it, you can't do it!"
"Thank you very much for saving our Qiyue..." the old lady said excitedly while wiping away her tears.
Zhao Chen could understand her behavior very well. He had learned about Xiao Qiyue's family before and knew that her parents died young and she was dependent on her grandmother. One can imagine how important she is to the old man.
As the news of Xiao Qiyue's safe return spread in the village, villagers came to visit Xiao Qiyue one after another, bringing eggs, fruits and other things, and stopped by to thank the two people who had taken care of Xiao Qiyue for so many days.
Zhao Chen felt the simple folk customs and kindness from these people.
At noon, because Xiao Qiyue returned safely, grandma's face, which had been gloomy for many days, became brighter. She cooked it herself and made an extremely sumptuous lunch.
After dinner, Zhao Jin teased Qiyue's Xiangwei Miao. Miao Miao and Fairy Elf sat in front of the door chatting. Zhao Chen and Xiao Qiyue sat around the stove to warm themselves up.
"Grandma, do you know how to find Celebi?" Zhao Chen asked.
Grandma knew that Zhao Chen had traveled from another time and space. She thought about it and said slowly: "The God of the Forest does not have a fixed residence. He will not stay in a fixed place, or even stay there forever.
A time and space, trying to find it... is somewhat difficult."
"That's it..." Zhao Chen fell into deep thought. What should he do now? In his memory, there was no way to actively summon Celebi... but without Celebi, he couldn't go back at all.
In addition to Celebi's method, there is another method.
That is to find the elf Dialga, known as the God of Time, and let him send him back.
But the second one is simply harder than reaching the sky... let alone impossible to achieve.
"I'm sorry." After hearing this, little Qiyue showed an expression of remorse on her face. If it weren't for herself, her elder brother and elder sister would not have been brought to this time and space.
"It doesn't matter. Nothing is difficult in the world. If you are willing, you will find a way." Zhao Chen comforted him, but to be honest, he didn't know what he was doing.
If he really can't go back, then he will have to stay in this era. Fifty years later, he will be sixty-six years old, ruling out the possibility of dying young. Fifty years later, with his character, he will be the first
The thing is to find her future self and let Xiao Qiyue enter the room alone with the crimson ball to resurrect Celebi.
This will prevent your future self from repeating the same mistakes and traveling back in time, and avoid causing you to continue to cycle through the slits of time.
But no one told him about it.
This also means that he successfully returned to the future.
This result is inevitable and is also the arrangement of fate (zuo) and luck (zhe).
