Chapter 26: The Lady with a Light Sigh (62)

"Yes, yes, I think I've made up my mind now. The answer given by Shen Lin was more relaxed than I imagined, which also put my heart down. Just listening, Shen Lin continued: "Although, I don't really want to give up my identity as a human just like that. But I'm not reconciled, I'm not willing to die like this, but I don't want to continue to live in this apocalyptic world. By the way, what about that world you're in?"

Uh, what is the world I live in? How should I answer her, should I tell her that in fact, the era we live in is not very good, although it is a little better than this era, but it is also in the process of collapse, or tell her that in fact, our era is very good, the people live and work in peace and contentment, all races live in harmony, life is good, and every race is looking forward to Shen Lin, a human from the old era?

Lying, in many cases, can have bad consequences. But sometimes, white lies can bring comfort to people's hearts. So, should I lie about Shen Lin's question? What I'm worried about is that if I don't lie, Shen Lin will think that after I saved her, I'm just going to a world that's slightly better than now, but if I want to say it's good, it's not much better at all. Who knows what will happen to everything after we leave the previous era? Maybe when I take Shen Lin to find Viren and return to the future world, I will find that the environment of that era is even worse than the current living conditions? After the loss of our human world, how sure can we resist those apostles? To be honest, I personally think that the probability is not more than one percent.

Or, for now, we can simply change the question, that is, how long can the human world hold out after losing us? Maybe, maybe Shen Lin returned to that world with us, but it hurt her.

However, if she didn't tell her what kind of world she was going to face in the future, what would she think if she found out that world was a purgatory similar to this world? Could it be that she hated me? A white lie, although sometimes it is indeed well-intentioned, once it is exposed, then the lie may bring hatred.

My heart kept wandering between telling things and using white lies, until Shen Lin asked me again, "Hey, hey, why don't you speak? Are you in a daze again?"

Well, I can't help it. Now, what is the first thing on my mind, I will tell her the truth. That's right, it's a lie, that white lie. "Hmm, Shen Lin, do you think a white lie really means good intentions?"

"Ahem, ahem. "Obviously, Shen Lin's current situation is getting worse and worse. I feel very anxious, and I hope that Shen Lin can prepare for her future soon. "What a white lie, in my opinion, a lie is a lie, and there is no distinction between good intentions and bad intentions. In the days of peace, there was a saying that if a person was on the verge of death, then his relatives and friends were obliged to make the person happier before he died. Whether it is because of illness or calamity, try not to direct the topic in these directions, and if the person perceives something, he must do his best to prove the lie. Letting the dying die happily with a smile is one of the so-called white lies. However, in my opinion, this so-called white lie has not been considered by the person concerned at all, and the actions of the people who carry out these so-called white lies are just to make their hearts feel better. Therefore, I personally will never believe that there is any white lie in this world. A lie is a lie!"

Hmm, I see. I squatted down, stroked the deep wound on Shen Lin's hand with my own hand, and said softly, "I understand." Actually, I actually wanted to deceive you with a white lie, but after thinking about it, maybe such a lie is really a harm to you. So, I'll tell you to put it anyway. Actually, in my time, the situation was not much better than it is now. At that time, our world was invaded by a mysterious race from another world, and I, as one of the main forces of the human world alliance, fell into the siege of those races along with other partners during a meeting, and we were able to get here through teleportation. Originally, I thought that I might have to live alone in this strange time and strange world to me, but I didn't expect that Viren, that is, the magician, was also teleported here like me. Now, I can give you three options that you can consider carefully. ”

Cold sweat began to fall from Shen Lin's face, but she insisted on keeping her words intact: "You say, talk about it." Three choices, I'll see what I can choose. ”

I breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "The first option is to stop me from being healed and leave this world as a human being. ”

SHEN LIN DIDN'T HESITATE TO PASS THIS CHOICE, AND SAID BLUNTLY: "NO, I HAVE ALREADY CHOSEN IT BEFORE." I haven't lived enough, even if I become an undead, I have to live, and I don't want to be destroyed with this dead world. ”

Shen Lin's rejection of this first choice seems reasonable to me. So, I didn't dwell on her much about this issue, but said the second option: "Very good, I expected it." So, the second choice I gave you is to follow the original plan, let me heal your current injuries, and come to the future world with me, and let us fight desperately for our own living environment. Of course, if you choose this one, then that world is also your world. ”

After I finished saying this, I deliberately glanced at Shen Lin, waiting for her to reply. However, Shen Lin just looked away with his eyes and did not answer my question in the first place.

It seems that after I said these words to Shen Lin, such a choice in Shen Lin's heart is destined to no longer be chosen by Shen Lin. I sighed lightly and said the third option to her: "Okay, Shen Lin." If you don't want to say either of these options, then this option is the best at the moment. That is, I will still heal you and turn you into an undead, and then, when I find Viren, I will go back with him alone, and you will continue to stay here. Rest assured, once you become an undead, you have an almost endless lifespan. ”

However, there were many more things that I didn't tell her. That is, if I let her stay here, then she is destined to be out of place in this world after becoming an undead. Whether it is a human being or a zombie in this era, it will not tolerate this emerging race. Then in the end, Shen Lin's ending was either killed by humans or cleared by zombies. Especially the zombies, who are about to become the new masters of this continent, they do not allow such an unstable factor to exist. However, a more serious consequence is that after Shen Lin obtained the power of the undead, he relied on this power that was not his innate to disturb history, disrupt history, and make what had happened in the future completely disappear. This is something I would never have done for her, and I would never have taken such a big risk.

Therefore, although I gave Shen Lin three choices, the first and third choices are actually to take one path in the end, that is, death. And only the second way, which I said and the way I asked her to find Viren with me, and then return to the previous world, is a way to live. Although it is difficult to live, it is also a way to live. And the dead end, no matter how interesting things you find in the process, what awaits you at the end of the road is still death. So, in my heart, I really don't want Shen Lin to make the first and third choices.

"The endless lifespan seems very attractive indeed. Shen Lin's eyes seemed to have regained some of their brightness, and she said to me with a little excitement: "But, but my choice was made from the beginning." I need you to heal me, and then take me to the troubled world of which you speak, and let me walk around that world, and have a look, and by the way, help the various races who are in dire straits resist the invasion of the lease. By the way, what's that race from another world called?"

"Apostle. I laughed, "Apostles." ”

"O apostle. Shen Lin suddenly realized and said, "Before the disaster, I once saw from an anime that the Apostle was the destroyer of the world. There were only a dozen of them. So I think it's just the name. However, I think the real Apostle must be much stronger than the Apostle in the anime. So, I decided, I'll go with you. ”

"Really?" I was in a very happy mood, and hurriedly asked, "You mean, you have decided now, if that's the case, then I'm going to treat you immediately." ”

"Of course. Shen Lin smiled reluctantly and said lightly to me: "Hurry up, by the way, I don't know what your treatment method is." I don't know if I'll be able to hold out until you cure me. ”

"Of course you can. I drew my dagger and stabbed it into my left wrist, bleeding out. Then, without permission, I gently held her cheek and said to her, "It's actually very simple, swallow all this blood I have shed." Then endure for a few more days, if you endure it, you will be an undead, if you don't endure it, I will repair this tomb for you. ”

Because I held my cheeks, Shen Lin couldn't finish a sentence very clearly, but I still heard her say a little slurred: "Well, I'm still here, I thought I could become an undead after drinking blood." It turns out that this is just the first step on the road to the west. ”

Uh, what does the first step on the western longitude mean? But it doesn't seem to be important. Since Shen Lin had already begun to swallow my blood, there was no way to speak anymore. I looked at Shen Lin, who looked like a baby sucking milk, and I couldn't help but be impressed by all these things I did. Yes, even I am convinced by all these actions of myself. Even hundreds of thousands of years later, I have never treated a person like this. Yet, in this day and age, I did.

After about two minutes, Shen Lin tilted his head to the side. I know that this is a reaction that Shen Lin no longer needs to be treated. I didn't talk to her, but picked her up and put her on a softer haystack. This is supposed to be her usual resting place. In the next period of time, it may be the biggest test for Shen Lin, I don't know if she will be able to persevere.

When I hugged her on the haystack for only a few dozen seconds, Shen Lin's whole body began to tremble uncontrollably. And it was still accompanied by bursts of howls and muffled snorts from time to time. I stood quietly and waited.

It can be seen that every second that Shen Lin has spent now seems extremely tormented. I don't know if Shen Lin is still conscious now, if she does, maybe she never wants to suffer such a sin again in her life. If there is no consciousness, then it is the greatest mercy that God has given her. However, when I saw her wide open eyes watching me, I realized that she had been suffering all this in silence.

A minute later, Shen Lin suddenly heard the shouting. And her eyes became blank at this time. This is a sign of death. I couldn't help her, I could just watch it happen. I prayed that she would get better, but after more than ten seconds, Shen Lin's body stopped moving. Everything, gradually, returned to calm.

Alas, alas. Why. Why is this the result? She's dead, and there's nothing left to do. I thought that this time, I would be able to let this strong woman continue to live with stronger courage, but I didn't expect that she had survived so many hardships before, but this time, she didn't survive.

"Rest in peace, Shen Lin. I'll fix it up. I sighed and prepared to leave the cave.

However, not long after I turned around, Shen Lin's voice suddenly rang out.

"Well, ma'am, I think I'm an undead by now. ”
