Dedicated to the Sky

There is a foreign tribe in the world, named Nuo, who eats the essence of heaven and earth, swallows the vitality of the world, and lives for hundreds of years. Thirteen years ago, the dark night burned the sky. A fire burned down my hometown and shattered thousands of fireworks. Their obsession, expectations, and years of hard work all turned into ashes that night. Sheng Xingchen thought he couldn't keep anything. Chi Yiji thought he couldn't remember anything. Until one day, a washed-out basketball jersey was cushioned on the back seat of an old-fashioned bicycle. Until one late night, someone put a safety lock into his palm through the ashes of thirteen years. But he never said that. If you like someone, you have to spend the rest of your days waiting for them. Wait until the dead wood blooms, and wait until the roses stop blooming. After living for hundreds of years, he felt for the first time that time was too slow. Sheng Xingchen didn't like to be in contact with people, but his body couldn't help but get close to Chi Yiji, like getting close to a fire he had long forgotten. Everyone who has been caught in the rain wants to hold an umbrella for others. Everyone trapped in a cage wants to fly out. Some people are imprisoned and some are seeking to survive. And he just squatted by the cage and said to the bird: "Fly. I'll wait for you here." 24/8/25 Rewriting. [Demining: Private setting (Nuo worldview), with guest appearances by characters from other works, campus, supernatural beings] —— Intention: Some people are imprisoned and some are seeking to survive.
