Chapter 80: A Sense of Foreboding
Ip Man gave the child a name and gave him the meaning of being a 'human'.
At the same time, he also stretched out his hand and directly crushed the self-detonation collar with [Zero Seven] written on it. Shattering his past as an experiment.
The boy, who had been called "Zero Seven" until now, reached out and scratched his neck, and found that there was no collar left.
He then looked at his hands again.
Although it was dyed red, the hand was there.
He looked up at the old man in front of him, as if he knew that he had been given freedom.
A tear slipped down his face, leaving a clear mark on the blood-red baby's face.
Ye Man patted Ye Chou on the shoulder, took off his military coat, and draped it on the poor child's shoulder.
He still remembers that night.
That night. For the first time since his birth in the world, he felt warmth.
..........................................
Who would have thought that Ye Chou used to be an emotionless killing machine............
looked at the stepfather still wearing the military coat in the story, inseparable......
Jianming understood, no matter who it was.
Those who participated in the Martial Arts Tournament...... Wang Dazhu is also good...... Wang Xiaoliang is also good......
Even if you never know what your parents look like......
The life path of the strong...... It's so rugged.
It's been so bumpy.
This couldn't help but make him curious.
If it were true that everyone had such a twisted story............
Then his uncle...... What's the story?
"Uncle Shi, what about you, why are you so strong?"
........................
........................
Ye Chou just wanted to pick up the teacup at the end of the story.
Jianming's words made him stop again.
This time, he didn't say anything.
And Ye Shenyuan was the same, his dry wall-like face seemed to have turned into a stone statue. I couldn't speak for a long time.
Ye Chou still didn't say a word.
Jianming looked back and forth between the two of them, and now he began to wonder if he didn't open which pot and which pot he didn't mention and said the wrong thing.
After a long time, Ye Shenyuan finally came back to his senses from his contemplation, and he shook his head and looked at the crumbling sunset in the sky.
He once burned and glowed like the sunset, and then fell into a bottomless darkness.
"It's not too early, nephew, I think one story a day is enough. ”
Ye Chou finally took a sip of tea.
"Yes, Jianming, it's not early, about your uncle...... We'll talk about that another day. ”
Ye Shenyuan turned his head to look at Ye Chou, his senior brother.
It's as if his sun isn't over there, it's over here.
He touched the military coat on his brother's shoulder.
As if thinking of something, he said to Jianming: "In fact, the martial artists who died due to challenges and competitions are a minority here. ”
"Senior brother, he cares very much about the life of every warrior, and even more so for every dead warrior. ”
He looked up in the direction where Jianming had come.
"The grave of the back mountain............
"Most of the warriors there were either killed by me or died because of me......"
"My past is not honorable............"
"Now that's all you need to know, that's enough. ”
Jianming lowered his eyebrows, it seems that not everyone can talk about their past with a smile......
Especially the past of a strong man............
It may be the mourning of the family, or it may be the bloody storm.
He was moved by the sad atmosphere of the sunset, and watched his father-in-law staring at the empty teacup, constantly playing............
The dark green military coat was also dyed a pale yellow by the setting sun.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Shi...... I asked the ...... that shouldn't have been asked."
Ye Shenyuan was a little surprised, and then he immediately hid the surprise and waved his hand instead.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll tell you about these things in person another day......"
Ye Chou smiled slightly.
It seems that after this day's exchange, the junior brother who has no one in his eyes is finally touched by Jianming.
He was right.
Jianming is a strong man, and he has this kind of power.
This............ The power to warm people's hearts.
This is the strongest strength of his master Ip Man, and it is also the strength he has been pursuing.
Buzz ——————
A noisy sound of flapping wings came, and it was normal for mosquitoes to fly from time to time in the mountains and forests.
It's just that the owner of this flapping wing is a huge killer bee.
This is rare in the thriving Penglai.
Something must have happened elsewhere to make it move here............
The bee flew around Jianming and then left, as if he didn't see Jianming as an enemy.
Then the killer bee flew in front of Ye Chou's eyes.
Dignified martial honor, you won't be disturbed by this flying insect.
So he slid his hand and turned into a sharp palm wind that pushed the killer bee aside.
But it spun in the air, still without the slightest intention of leaving, and this time it rushed straight towards Ye Shenyuan.
It's a pity that this humble fly can't even know that he has found the wrong person to fight.
Syllable!
Ye Shenyuan stopped holding his thumb and waved his fingers directly.
The manic killer bee was smashed to pieces, and the five horses were torn apart.
Poisonous needles, stump wings, compound eyes, antennae, body............ Passing past his ears, he flew straight to the grass behind Jianming.
"Senior brother, what if I bounce it into the master's cup......"
Ye Shenyuan didn't think so, with his ability, this kind of thing would not have happened.
"A lowly ant deserves the fate he deserves. ”
Suck —————— ha——————
Ye Chou took a deep breath. Spit out again quickly.
He's been like this for a long time. There's nothing he can do, that's probably what people call nature.
Ye Shenyuan lowered his brows, looking worried.
"Compared to such a trivial matter, senior brother...... Recently, the animals and mosquitoes have been very manic, and I feel that something bad is about to happen, something...... Something that can shake the earth. ”
Ye Chou nodded, and also put on an extremely serious look.
"Yes, junior brother, I feel this way too, and I've always been itching in my heart lately...... That's why I think it's a good idea to build a railway in Penglai. ”
Wiping the insect bodily fluids on his hands, Ye Shenyuan looked at Jianming again.
This young man, whom he met for the first time today, gave himself a wonderful feeling.
Not just because he's strong, but also because he's ...... Even Ye Shenyuan himself couldn't say the wonderful feeling.
But he vaguely knew that this young man would become the most important person in his life besides his senior brother.
He turned his head to look at Ye Chou again.
"Senior brother, no matter what, you must be more careful and judge carefully. ”
Ye Chou shook the military coat on his shoulders and looked at the grass hut where Ye Man lived.
"Don't worry, the master handed over Penglai to me, and I, Ye Chou, will give up this life, and I will protect it thoroughly. ”
Scold............
Ye Shenyuan smiled. Jianming saw him smile brightly for the first time.
That's it, it was because of this that the master entrusted Penglai to Ye Chou.
He knows that.
"That's all for today, we'll meet again when we have time. ”
This sentence was said to Jianming.
Jianming stood up, a little numb in his hand still holding the rest of the fruit core he had just eaten, and he didn't know where to throw it.
The sun had completely set, but it was not yet dark, and it exuded a dull blue.
Ye Chou also stood up and patted Jianming's shoulder. It's like a father who takes his son out on an outing.
"Let's go, go back and get some rest. ”
....................................
That night, a few white clouds drifted in the clear sky, and the bright moon looked like a laughing sideface.
The moonlight shines through the window, the lights are not turned on, and Qiu Cicada is sitting on a chair in the inner room of the house, talking to his 'wrist'.
He said with a flat face: "Yes, the fundamental reason why Penglai can close the country and not trade with other countries is that it can be self-sufficient, use the bioenergy conversion of the people in the fifth district, and achieve a situation of worry-free food and clothing." ”
Beep beep ————
The bandages that I would never remove on a daily basis had long since been scattered on the side of the chair, and the mechanical chip on my wrist was making a sound of movement.
In less than a moment...... There was a voice on the white wrist.
"It's weird...... Why is Penglai's energy conversion technology better than ours? Aren't they just a bunch of barbarians with only muscles............
After listening, the autumn cicada looked a little dumbfounded.
He said, "Hmm...... Lord Darwin, I think they have a greater control and understanding of this primordial energy that all things have. ”
............
After a not-so-long silence, the chip on the wrist made another sound.
"Hmm...... Maybe, you go ahead and report, Autumn Cicada. ”
As soon as the words fell, the autumn cicada was alert to the sound of footsteps.
It's Serena.
Before the autumn cicada could react, Serena poked her head out of the door frame, waved her little hand, and greeted the autumn cicada with a smile on her face.
"Brother Qiu Cicada, what are you doing in such a dark room, who are you talking to?"
The call that should have been secret was seen by others, and Qiu Cicada was very nervous. He quickly put his finger to his lips.
"Serena, shhh————hh
Seeing Qiu Cicada's nervous appearance, Serena knew that she seemed to be disturbing something, and ran back to the living room with a trot.
But before the autumn cicada could breathe a sigh of relief, Darwin's side noticed something unusual.
"Autumn cicada...... Who? ...... that?"
There is no way to hide it anymore, so Qiu Cicada simply said everything.
"It's Serena who I reported to you last time............ The two of us have been living together since a few days ago............ For this reason, Wuzun Ye Chou also gave us a lot of convenience and opened up a lot of relationships...... Even the identity and funds are ready......"
"We can see the street from the window, we can laugh together, and we often go shopping together............
Speaking of happy things, Autumn Cicada seems to be able to talk forever.
