Ch79.2 - Wheat Fields (1/2)
It was Yu Hao’s first time transforming into such a small form. When he looked at Zhou Sheng, he thought that he seemed really big, which was pretty interesting.

“Why are you doing something dangerous again!” The fox squatted on the ground and said angrily to Zhou Sheng, “Explain this clearly to me!”
A gust of wind blew. Zhou Sheng just smiled, then raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
A crisp sound rang out. The golden meadow released a sea of light that enveloped Yu Hao and Zhou Sheng. Zhou Sheng’s attire changed — his original set of tattered armour had transformed into a T-shirt and shorts. His shield disintegrated into faint light particles that surrounded Zhou Sheng’s neck and turned into a red scarf that fluttered in the wind.
Zhou Sheng’s hair lengthened slightly, his blonde hair as beautiful as the golden meadow. Meanwhile, Yu Hao’s body grew bigger and bigger and eventually assumed a human form, though his ears remained fox ears that stood upright. Yu Hao’s sitting posture crushed his tail, which was extremely uncomfortable, so he had to squat slightly.
Yu Hao, “……”
Zhou Sheng, “Did you hear me summon you?”
“Yeah.” Yu Hao said, “As soon as I came in, I saw you hitting your mother……”

Zhou Sheng said helplessly, “That’s not my mother. Medusa represents my fear of marriage and the idea of a family.”
Yu Hao watched Zhou Sheng and said, “She used to scratch you all the time, you’re scared of her claws.”
“Un……” Zhou Sheng said, “So wounds that are scratched by Medusa can’t heal.” He sighed as he spoke, “Annoying.”
“I’ll help you fight.” Yu Hao said, “Let’s do it together.”
Zhou Sheng answered, “No one else is allowed in the arena.”
Yu Hao, “How’s that possible?”
Zhou Sheng explained patiently, “That’s how it is. Once an assistant joins, Medusa will turn into what you witnessed — she’ll become so strong that we would have no chance of defeating her at all. Forget it, if she can’t be defeated, then I won’t fight her for now……”
Yu Hao thought about it for a bit and said, “It’s definitely possible! I remember you said before that……”
“Yes, I said that I never wanted to get married in my life.” Zhou Sheng got up and said, “And I don’t want to be in a relationship either, I don’t want to be like my Dad, don’t want to……in any case, remember Liang Laoshi?”
Zhou Sheng walked to the end of the field and looked towards the arena on the other side of the sea. The restless waves roared at sea amongst strong, blustering winds and surging clouds.
“It’s my fear of starting a family.” Zhou Sheng stated.
“Don’t say that!” Yu Hao got up from the grass and chased Zhou Sheng, “Go to your mother and have a talk with her, like the black dragon in my dream, there’ll definitely be a way……”
Zhou Sheng answered, “I tried, it’s no use. Do you think my Mum is someone you can communicate with?”
“Then I’ll talk to her.” Yu Hao answered obstinately.

In the middle of the wheat field were only four beds that stood quietly in the wind. Desk lamps, books and swivel chairs — they all seemed so dreamlike and surreal.
Zhou Sheng offered the ear of wheat to Yu Hao. Yu Hao didn’t understand what he meant by this, but right when he touched the ear of wheat, he unconsciously withdrew his hand.
“You’ll get better.” Yu Hao said, “I never thought……that it would be like this under your clouds……like……”

Zhou Sheng just looked at Yu Hao quietly.
Yu Hao said, “Let’s go back to reality to find a way ba.”
“Summon the Golden Crow Wheel in your heart.” Zhou Sheng suddenly said, “Imagine its appearance, until it begins to resonate with you. Then you’ll be able to borrow its strength for a short while; push your hand through it, press out, and say ‘good night’.”
Yu Hao, “……”
Yu Hao began to imagine the Golden Crow Wheel, and a few seconds later, the shape of the Golden Crow Wheel appeared before his eyes. But it was different from the Golden Crow Wheel he had pictured– the Golden Crow Wheel he imagined was silver, and it emitted a very gentle light.
He raised his hand, passed through the silver Golden Crow Wheel, and pressed against Zhou Sheng’s forehead. Zhou Sheng closed his eyes.
“Good night.” Yu Hao said.

Suddenly, Zhou Sheng dissolved into silver light particles and disappeared.
Yu Hao, “!!!”
This was too mystical! Before Yu Hao could look at his right hand, he had also turned into silver particles that dispersed into the sky.
At 4.30am, Zhou Sheng and Yu Hao woke up at the same time on the balcony.
Heavy rain poured down, the sound inexplicably mirroring the sound of the tides in Zhou Sheng’s dreamscape. Yu Hao looked sideways at Zhou Sheng, but Zhou Sheng had already raised his head to look at the curtain of rain beyond the balcony.
“Go in ba, don’t catch a cold.” Zhou Sheng just said lightly before getting up and entering the dormitory. He took off the Golden Crow Wheel, threw it into the drawer, and locked it.
Yu Hao said, “You’re already aware of that point……”
“Gege’s coming back tonight.” Zhou Sheng interrupted, “Look at your WeChat? Reply to him to confirm if you’re going or not.”
Yu Hao thought, ok then. He knew that Zhou Sheng didn’t want to discuss it, so he’ll have to wait until an appropriate time to mention it another day.
He went to bed and sneezed. Zhou Sheng frowned, “You caught a cold?”
Yu Hao waved his hand. It rained heavily last night, and the temperature had been dropping for the past few days, so it was likely he caught a cold.
