Chapter 117: The Last Night Talk (1)
"→" is a great novel to read.
When the night began to fall on the land, Lird felt an indescribable peace in his heart, and in the face of this peace, Lird felt an indescribable hesitation.
Two nights ago, I was still in a hurry to escape in the pursuit, and I never imagined that I would turn the tables at this time.
Van Du and Abigai were imprisoned, and Granny Chas was shot by himself, and everything changed so quickly that Lird felt so unreal, that he even dared not close his eyes, fearing that when he opened his eyes again, everything would disappear.
After drinking ordinary coffee and eating some dry food, Lird and Edward sat in the tent and read in silence, only this time Lird read the great Gatsby, and Edward read the Bible.
At some point, Jim walked in, when the tent door was pushed in. Early in the morning, after the complete victory of Lird's side, Jim began to help Qianrou deal with the affairs within the clan. Although Jim's previous behavior caused Qianrou to lose a lot of trust in him, for now, she couldn't find a more reliable helper than Jim, so Jim was equivalent to returning to Qianrou's side.
When Jim walked in, Edward shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, cowboy, you're back, did you give us some leftover steak meat from the nobles?"
Edward's ridicule Jim ignored it, and stood at the door of the tent with a coldness full of dust, and then said to Lird, "Have you eaten dinner?"
Lird nodded.
Jim then said, "In that case, come with me, the priest wants to see you." ”
Lird was not too surprised by this, but he was also a little surprised, because he had expected Qianrou to meet him much earlier.
Lird subconsciously looked at Edward, the person who had once made Lird very distrustful, and at this time became a backbone in Lird's heart.
Edward smiled, "Young Master, don't forget me when you enjoy the feast." Lird smiled wryly, then stood up and walked out of the tent with Jim.
On the journey to Qianrou's tent, both Lird and Jim were relatively silent, and there was no celebration of their victory, not even verbal congratulations, only the unusual calm.
Please know in both of their hearts that there is a thorn in each other's hearts, and this thorn is none other than the dead Granny Chas.
No matter how Granny Chas designed Jim, she has great respect in her heart for the old man who has given her support, and in the previous plan, Granny Chas is bound to fail, but she is not certain to die, but Lird changes this outcome. No matter what unspeakable secrets Lird had at the time, the facts he left behind cannot be changed.
Liard's heart is full of contradictions, because he has a hunch that his friendship with Jim may begin to break down at this moment, and no matter how much they help each other in the days to come, they will not be able to return to that moment.
After entering the Qianrou tent, the same scenery but a strange atmosphere, the guards who were once stationed in the outer tent were gone, replaced by an empty area, and the flames burning in the fire barrel seemed much weaker.
Jim paused, then said to Lird, "Go in." Lird looked around, and without Abigai leading the way, Lird suddenly felt quite unaccustomed, and he even doubted that he would find Qianrou's inner tent room.
Jim said, "There's no need to worry about anything, just keep going." ”
Lird nodded, then whispered, "Thank you." ”
Jim was also stunned when he heard this, the word had not appeared between the two of them, and after the shock, Jim just nodded lightly, he was also aware of the emotions behind this life's gratitude, but he was powerless to change.
When Lird walked up the passage, suddenly Jim stopped him from behind, and Lird turned around, but saw Jim calmly and said to him, "Please, don't let me down." I... There really is no way back for us. ”
Lird nodded, he didn't understand this truth.
The passage in the tent without Abigai was long and short, and of course this was also a difference between Lird's subjective and objective feelings, and when he walked to the familiar tent door, Lird exhaled heavily, as if to remove the tension in his heart. At this moment, Lird suddenly remembered the nervousness he felt when he first came to see Qianrou, and his state of mind at this time was even more nervous than at that time.
After knocking on the tent door, there was a sound of Qianrou inviting her in, and when Lird entered, he saw Qianrou sitting at a table dressed in white, and on the table was a game of chess that had not yet begun.
In that moment, Lird seemed to return to the confused but carefree years of not so long ago. In a trance, Lird walked over to the table and sat down, putting on a fade with ease.
The two were speechless and fell silently.
After a long time, the two are still stinky chess baskets, but they kill each other.
In the end, Lird was narrowly defeated, and although he failed, Lird was also very happy.
Qianrou breathed a sigh of relief, then raised her eyes to look at Lird and said, "Do you want me in waterproof?"
Lird shook his head and said: "I don't feel that I owe you anything, why should I let you, it's because I can't play chess, and I'm not in a good mood today." ”
Qianrou smiled: "It's quite a big man's mood is so bad, hehe, it's really a child." ”
This was the first time Qianrou used the issue of age to tease Liard, and Lird was stunned for a moment before retorting: "I'm a child? What about you? It seems that you may not be as old as me." ”
The two young men looked at each other, and after a while, they laughed together, and the laughter was hearty and light.
Two young people who don't know each other's age, but they defeated their opponents with a kind of "stunned" unique to young people, in which it is impossible to know whether it is the inevitability of strength or the arrangement of fate, what can be known is that fate will be two people with different backgrounds, different statuses, and different cultural spirits are closely linked together and inseparable.
"Is everything settled?" asked Lird, referring to the events that followed.
Qianrou nodded and said, "Fandu and Abigai have been imprisoned separately, and there are reliable people who are strictly guarded, and there will be no accidents." As for Granny Chas's business... Troublesome bits, but it's been solved. ”
Qianrou's seemingly understated words made Lird feel even more remorseful in his heart, and he could realize how much pressure Granny Chas's death would bring to Qianrou.
Looking at Liard's self-reproachful appearance, Qianrou chuckled and said, "Don't think about it so much, you are not a perfect person and can't control everything in applause." Besides, Granny Chas's death may not be as bad as you think. While it feels very cold to say this, there are times when the dead are more convenient than the living, and at least it doesn't say anything to the contrary. ”
Lird looked at Qianrou, he knew that on the one hand, Qianrou was really comforting him, and on the other hand, Lird also felt an unusual coldness from Qianrou.
Qianrou looked at Lird and suddenly said, "I don't have a choice now, do I?"
Lird nodded when he heard this, what Qianrou said was similar to what Jim said, both sides knew that they had come to this point and there was no way back, and now no matter how crazy and unreliable Lird's plan was, they would have to try.
Qian Rou rose from her seat, then went to the side of the tent wall, looked at one of the charms hanging on it, and said, "I hesitated for a long time when Mr. Pym proposed that plan to me, and although I thought it was ridiculous, I tried to carry it out. I can't imagine that now I have to follow your plan and start an even more crazy idea. Haha, if you think about it from another angle, maybe it's not that your father and son are crazy, but that I'm crazy. ”
"There are no crazy and sound plans in this world, only success and failure. ”
Qianrou smiled, "So are you confident that this plan will succeed?" Lird opened his mouth, but finally fell silent.
He has no knowledge of the laws of physical space in the quantum universe, and it can be said that all the theories he knows are "hearsay" from Gerald, and from the theoretical framework he now has in his hands, the theoretical basis of this plan is even inferior to a piece of duckweed.
But Lird still has a lot of confidence in this, of course, this confidence is not completely blind, nor is it unwarranted arrogance, but Lird's confidence in the power of the Atlantean remnant.
Thinking of this, Lird said to Qianju: "The plan is half successful and half of the failure, and if it is not executed, the survival of the entire tribe may not even be half, isn't it?"
Qian Rou smiled: "Your logic is also interesting." ”
In fact, what Lird said was full of loopholes in theory and logic, but Qianrou didn't want to have any justification with Liard, and she knew very well in her heart that even if Liard's plan had a one-in-a-thousand chance, she would be worth trying.
Qianrou turned her head to Lird and said, "Now that we are completely on the same front, then we have nothing to hide, and we always have to unite in the face of suffering to help each other, right?" Lird nodded.
Qianrou walked back to the table and sat down, Qianqian fiddled with the remnants on the table with her fine fingers and said, "I know that the last link in your plan is about the power of hand protection in our clan, so I want to hear what you know about this power first?"
Lird was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Qianrou to ask him such a question, and said, "Isn't it up to you to tell me about this matter..."Qianrou shook her head and said, "I want to hear your thoughts first, or... I wonder what you've heard from Mr. Pym and Jim. ”
This time Lird fell silent again, this time he finally understood what Qianrou meant, what she wanted was not actually her own personal opinion, but wanted to know how much the secret of the power she guarded had been revealed.
This is indeed a good way to kill two birds with one stone, which can not only improve the whole plan, but also give Qianrou a more accurate understanding of the objective reality.
Father Pym's attitude doesn't matter at this point, after all, he is no longer alive, and Jim's attitude and thoughts play an important role in this conversation, and Qianrou can use him to better understand the inner secrets of the entire clan.
Qianrou looked at Liard, who looked quite entangled, and there was always that smile on her face, even if Lierde guessed his mind, she could not go against her will, which was Qianrou's cleverness.
After thinking about it, Lird finally showed a wry smile, a helpless wry smile. In the end, he chose to compromise with Ren Qianrou.
Lird said: "The power I know is very one-sided, even very abstract. That's a... The invisible and untouchable force, perhaps like the magnetic force, although it is invisible but concrete, it... Can be everywhere, and at the same time... Anything..."
After weighing the words, Lird made his own statement, and in the face of this, Qianrou always maintained a light smile and did not make any corrections or explanations.
Finally, after Lird had finished stating everything, Qianrou began: "What you have said is not wrong, but it is very incomplete. Even in the Middle Ages, it sounded more like a stick of words. Haha, but it's not vulgar, there are few people in the world who have ever seen a real god, so how can they distinguish divine power. ”
Lird looked at Qianrou's somewhat proud and smug expression, and suddenly realized that he was going to have more direct contact with the core of the Atlantean remnant tonight.
Thinking of this, Liald's heart couldn't help but beat a little more violently.
After saying everything, Qianrou paused, and then asked Lird again, "Then do you know where this power comes from?"
Lird shook his head slowly, Qianrou looked at Lird so seriously, and from his expression, Qianrou did not find the slightest concealment or abnormality.
Qianrou chuckled and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Pym to be so secretive, and I still have to thank him for this." ”
Lird understood that his father had some secrets that he had not told him before he died, and he did not know whether he had done it on purpose or in time, but Lird preferred the former.
Even in the last moments of his life, his father, Pym, remained most sober, and Lird believed that if his father had wanted to tell him about it, he would never have forgotten it.
And the reason why my father didn't tell me about it may be more of a kind of love for himself.
You must know that if Lird does not have the trust and support of Qianrou or others, it is a very dangerous thing to rashly learn a core secret truth.
