The sky was finally shrouded by a black curtain, the full moon hidden by the clouds. I sat on the ground holding lifeless and cold Bi Qingshen Jun, crying. Crying until my voice has become hoarse, as if I’m letting all 300 plus years of tears out at once, venting out all the pent-up emotions.
I didn’t know from when, but Xiaolin hesitantly came up to me. He squat down, and said, “Miao Miao, don’t cry anymore, Master Shen Jun will soon pass on.”
I shook my head, and tightly grasped onto Shen Jun’s body. As if this was the last bundle of grass, if I just let go, he would be released into the river of oblivion.
“Miao Miao, be good, and let him go.” Yin Zi approached me and advised. I shook my head and folded my ears, not paying attention or listened to anyone.
Until the moonlight shone on Bi Qingshen Jun, his body radiated a silver blue light. Under this moonlight, his body turned back into that of a snake, undergoing rapid petrification, and turning to ash. No matter how I grab, I was not able to catch it, leaving me with only his empty armor.
Floating in the wind, the ash traveled far into the distance to somewhere unknown.
“No! Shifu, don’t leave!” I cried and screamed, trying to capture the airborne particles. To keep the remaining traces of him. But to no avail…..
Miao Miao’s one and only Shifu is gone. No husband, no happiness, no nothing.
Just floating with the wind, an endless stream of tears and unforgettable memories.
In the future, who would give me such tenderness to snuggle against?
In the future, who would hold my hands and teach me to write?
In the future, who would help achieve all my dreams for me?
In the future, who would give me those gentle kisses on the lips?
In the future, who would make bad tasting soup for me?
In the future, who can bring me out of loneliness?
You used your life to tell me your love, but what will I use to tell you, that I love you?
