Volume 5 Indifference, the Nature of the World Chapter 141 What the Watchman Keeps For

Who are the truly extraordinary people, and who are the people who don't have any stories?

After sailing in the wind and waves for a long time, the once magnificent and huge pleasure ship will eventually become a withered and rotten wreck, quietly sinking to the bottom of the sea, accompanied by swimming fish, with innocent stories sleeping in the sea.

As a watchman, you may be like a newborn explorer, or you may be a messenger who welcomes you on a journey. They entered the decaying wreckage and pulled the stories, along with the tired and restless souls, away from the wreckage and to the other side of tranquility.

Just like the ferryman.

Yes, this is the once watchman. Those who are asleep, they will not continue the ordinary, lonely life of no one listening. They will be laid to rest on a stable continent after they have poured out everything, instead of wandering in the endless ocean and being homeless.

"Bai Nanyu, tell you something secretly. After a training session, Lin Yiming and Bai Nanyu chatted, "Do you know where the Watchman came from in the first place?"

"Where?" Bai Nanyu tilted his head slightly.

"It's also a dead country. ”

This "dead" country has always been the beginning of everything. Administrator, Watcher, City District, Nightmare......

All sorts of things come from the dead country, from this unsettling country.

When the twists and turns of real life have left the world without the idea of continuing, it is the best destination for a person to surrender everything they have and then fall into a long sleep. So, after the first people gathered and built their first home with their lives and blood and sweat, there was a place where they could sleep quietly.

In the homes where people gather, there is a huge cave, and there is a huge arched stone gate formed naturally at the entrance of the cave, which is called "the other side pass". Legend has it that those who enter this cave through this stone gate will fall into a coma without a sound or struggle, and then enter the dream of this world forever.

Then, the person's body will quickly disappear as if it had never existed.

After people have suffered so much and decided not to remember this life again, they can only enter the other side of the pass with the permission and listening of the gatekeeper. It's like walking across the Nai He Bridge, handing over all the thoughts and thoughts of this life to Meng Po, and then ending everything in this life.

As a result, the other side pass has become the holy place of this homeland, and the people who are watching in front of this other gate are some of the people who are now scattered in the city - the watchmen.

Although not many people know about the legendary "Other Shore Pass", even if they do, they will never go back. However, the watchmen who once stood guard in front of the "other side pass" have been scattered throughout the continent after the upheaval of the fallen country. They still hold on to their original job, which is to bear all the darkness and sorrow of this world, and to lead people to light, or liberation.

And Bai Nanyu, who became a "watchman", gradually understood the meaning of being a "watchman", but at this time, she began to become a little helpless.

Because as a guide, she may have to leave earlier than the lost at this time.

"Stupid scum!"

With a roar, the door to the temporary office in the center of the city was kicked open, and looking at the group of people sitting around the conference table in front of them, the person who entered the door angrily raised his hand, pointed at them and swept around, then threw his coat on the table and fell silent.

"Calm down first...... We have no choice but ......," said one of the lawmakers, cautiously, in a tone that sounded like defusing a bomb.

However, the "bomb" exploded anyway.

"As a last resort, you have to say anything! When are you going to act? When Mayor Yu was still there, you started to say what was a last resort, and now you are still saying what you have to say! Bai Nanyu, that guy is about to hang up, haven't you ever thought about what they will do to us if Bai Nanyu is gone?

"It's a hard thing to explain...... We can't help it...... In order for more people to live, this is the only way to do this. And aren't we trying to lure Bai Nanyu out? We're also trying to save her. ”

The argument stopped abruptly, and the noisy man calmed down a lot, leaning on the back of his chair and hanging his head. When I thought of what the consequences would be after this incident, I suddenly scratched my heart like a hundred claws.

"We ...... Was it meant to be this way from the beginning? ...... we're going to say," the man said, raising his right hand and clenching his fist suddenly, "are we going to be puppets all the time?"

"It's not like you don't understand that we've never won a country. Now, we've endured a lot of it, it's just that people don't know it. ”

"We can only go on like this? We must not be known by people, can we hide it......

"If you can't hide it, you have to hide it, it's the only way to survive. ”

Hide, hide, hide for a day. There are some things that people will not see if they are not dug out of the ground, and they will not feel the feeling of "living with something terrible".

"Bai Nanyu, don't go!

After Bai Nanyu learned about the news released by the city center and found her sister, Bai Nanyu didn't care if it was true or not, even if she wanted to go and find out. Xiao Jing and the others tried to stop her, but it didn't work, she was still so simple and impulsive.

However, now she seems to have changed a little, because she stopped and wanted to hear Xiao Jing's last words again.

"You said it wasn't my sister, so what evidence do you have, did you find my sister?" Bai Nanyu asked, but there was obviously an expectation in his eyes.

"Ah...... This one...... It's true, it's absolutely true, I swear!" Xiao Jing hesitated, watching Bai Nanyu's eyes gradually lose light, then looked at Bai Yu beside him, and threw the pot to her without hesitation, "You can ask Bai Yu, when you first received the letter, it was the guards who gave it to you, didn't you?"

Bai Yu suddenly glared, subconsciously revealing a fierce gaze, and then dispersed in an instant, and suddenly became distracted: "Yes...... It was the bad boys league who gave us the message......"

"Hey...... You, don't throw the pot...... Hey......" Xiao Jing's voice weakened as she spoke, and finally it simply turned into a lip language, but she found that Bai Yu was not looking, and Bai Nanyu was staring at this side again. So, she put on an innocent look and looked at Bai Nanyu with a twist, but she gave her a roll of her eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Nanyu planned to go to the city center again, which made Xiao Jing panic, so she simply ignored Bai Nanyu and said, anyway, she couldn't get Xiao Jing with this figure.

To be honest, it was really difficult for Bai Nanyu to see Xiao Jing who was so flustered, she was obviously worried about something and what she was waiting for, but what she was waiting for had not appeared for a long time, so she was anxious.

There was no way, Xiao Jing could only lock Bai Nanyu with her body and try to convince her.

"It's not...... Bai Nanyu, now that the remnants of the 'Black Death' want to take your life, and the city center is also being manipulated by unknown people, they are trying to embarrass you again and again, you really should calm down......"

Xiao Jing hugged Bai Nanyu to death, and Bai Nanyu didn't struggle too much, because she had the experience of struggling until the end, Xiao Jing rode directly on her whole body. As soon as this guy is a scoundrel, it is like a dog's skin plaster made into essence, and it is difficult to tear it apart if it sticks.

"Yes, do they want me dead? Bai Nanyu brushed his face aside.

"But I care!"

"Huh?"

After returning from exploring the ancient ruins, the Bad Boys Alliance and the Border Self-Defense Force have been researching, and so far, the results they have come up with are basically consistent with the previous research. In other words, they have not made any substantial breakthroughs yet, even if they still read the literature that they had not noticed before, and linked the fact that Bai Nanyu saw hallucinations and was infected with "relic disease".

But they always have a feeling that the dead country may know something, but the dead country doesn't say anything.

A boy who was helped by Bai Nanyu, that is, he hadn't met Bai Nanyu for a long time, the boy Li Renhui who had his hands and feet broken for stealing, appeared in the temporary office of the Bad Boy Alliance's Black Lake City.

According to him, he got the "Origin Root", and no matter where he got it, at least it would come in handy.

Although this bulb is sometimes circulated in the market from time to time, every time they see it, it has basically been resold many times, and it has basically become a "dried bulb" collection. Moreover, since they don't know how the "Origin Fruit Root" brought people back, many people secretly buy it and try it secretly, and the result is obviously a rampaging artifact.

It is no exaggeration to say that each of these bulbs on the market is stained with the blood of dozens, if not hundreds, of people.

Because of that undetermined legend, too many people are obsessed with this thing and have paid for it with their lives. To make matters worse, many bulbs are spoiled before they reach the specialized research department, and the Bad Boy League and the Border Self-Defense Force, which have previously purchased "Origin Fruit Roots" from the black market, know this all too well.

This time, I got the bulbs, which are still basically fresh, so I must study them quickly before being targeted by criminals.

"By the way, I have an idea. Li Renhui poked the arm of the researcher who took over the bulb, and looked at him innocently in the eyes, "Can this bulb save Bai Nanyu's life?" Because the relic disease can only be touched when you go back to the present world, and this bulb can be sent back. Anyway, it's more stable now, so if Bai Nanyu is sent to this world, she can be saved?"

If that's the case, then Bai Nanyu may be almost like dead. Because she returned to this world, if she wants to come back, she may not be able to wait until the next century in this world.

However, she can be saved in this way, and it can be regarded as temporarily sealing a hope to send to the future.

It's just that it would be nice if it could really be like this.

Since she has become a watchman, it means that she has fallen into a fate from which she cannot escape. Moreover, she was not trapped because she chose to watch, but because she couldn't escape.

The researcher's expression was a little sad, and then he skillfully changed his expression, touched the boy's head and said, "Okay, okay, we will definitely save her, okay? We have all changed from a group of passers-by to a family because of her, so we will definitely do our best to save her." And she's a watchman, such an important person, we won't let her leave us easily. ”

After the conversation, the door of the research office was just pushed open, and then Bai Nanyu was sent in with his hands held like an escort by Xiao Jing.

"Bai Nanyu brought it to you, really, this guy is more difficult to catch than the master of my family, and he almost didn't kill me. Xiao Jing said and let go of Bai Nanyu's hands, but saw Bai Nanyu's angry face like an inflatable pufferfish, "You still have a puffed face, don't you, and you still want to bite people, right? I'll bite you now, do you believe it?" I'll see if you beg for mercy first or if I ...... first."

"Hmph......" Bai Nanyu exhaled.

"Hey, you...... Go away, you are a dog, and even your master will dare to bite?"

This slightly mocking ridicule made Bai Nanyu speechless for some reason, Xiao Jing immediately found out that something was wrong, Bai Nanyu would definitely not give Xiao Jing the upper hand in this regard and endure it silently.

Bai Nanyu's bulging face suddenly looked a little hideous, looking very painful, this is very wrong, because Bai Nanyu's "remnant disease" has just occurred, even if it is in the late stage, the frequency of occurrence will definitely not be so high. There must have been something around here that caused her seizure, or simply caused something like "relic disease".

"Something......" Bai Nanyu's eyes were confused, it seemed that he had seen a hallucination, Xiao Jing hurriedly stepped forward to help, listening to Bai Nanyu's self-talk, "It's talking to me...... It...... It says I'm a thief...... Call me a cheater ......"

At the same time, there was also something strange in the room where the "Origin Fruit Root" was studied, and a researcher ran out to check, and after discovering Bai Nanyu's situation, he ran back to the research room.

He looked at the instrument, which clearly showed the bulb being studied, as if it was emitting a signal in a particular way. Or, let's put it a little simpler-

"Origin Root" is trying to talk to Bai Nanyu.
