Chapter 23: Courage and Escape
If there was a third person present, he would have been able to see a poor boy being kicked over by a murderous old man, doing a 720-degree backflip plus a 360-degree twist and a 360-degree twist to the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
I rubbed my aching head and sat back beside my grandmother, and asked curiously, "I didn't wake up when you kicked me like that just now, so it means that this is definitely not my dream." Grandma, where are we now?"
"This is the underworld, and we are now in my 'realm of names'. Grandma glanced at the back of my hand, "Since you've been in contact with the Nine Lands, you should know what it is." ”
Grandma is worthy of being a grandmother, even if she is deceased, she still knows everything clearly. I even know that I've been to the Broken Boundary with the Nine Lands.
I remembered everything I saw that day and the Nine Lands, the sea of stars like the Milky Way, the all-encompassing "stars" like soap bubbles, and the basic composition of all things in the world, "names". It seems that I should be standing on a "star" that belongs to my grandmother now.
I suddenly remembered one thing: "The Nine Lands seem to have said that the underworld is the place where the vanished name is reincarnated. I'm here now, that is, I've ...... Dead?"
I stared blankly at my grandmother, like she cast a verifying gaze.
It's a pity, grandma shook her head: "You're not dead. It's only because of a huge change and unstable mind that the soul will leave the body. It stands to reason that the soul will only stay in the human world when it leaves the body, but I didn't expect your soul to appear in the underworld. I feared that your soul would be damaged in the underworld, so I brought you to the realm of my name. ”
Grandma straightened her clothes: "Your time is running out, so I'll make a long story short." Now that the imprint has reached you, the only thing you can do is to live well. I have left you with two Guardians who are very capable and should be able to keep you safe. ”
As if I had been hit on the head by a thunderbolt, I hurriedly grabbed my grandmother's hand and resisted, "Grandma, aren't you here to pick me up?" I want to go with you. Take me with you!"
Grandma touched my head, her eyes full of love: "Luo Luo, I know you must be scared now. But the road ahead will only get harder and harder, and you must muster up the courage to overcome your fears and overcome your own heart. You have to work hard to go on and live well. ”
I shook my head vigorously, "But I don't want to go any further." It's so tiring! It's too hard! I can't do it, I can't do it, I'm definitely not going to be able to!"
"Lolo, you have to hold on! Be brave!"
I grabbed the corner of my grandmother's clothes and yelled, "Why do you have to muster up the courage, why do you have to go on? There are thousands of roads in this world, why do you have to choose the most difficult path? Don't tell me anything about a bright future, a promotion and a salary increase, and going to the top of life, I am not interested, and I don't care at all! I care...... I just want to live an ordinary life, run the family commissary well, and take good care of you and be filial to you when I grow up. But you suddenly threw me down. You're going to throw me down again......"
At the end, I crouched down and hugged myself tightly, and once again broke down and cried bitterly.
Grandma took me into her arms and gently patted my back with her warm palm, just like when I was a child.
Gradually, I stopped crying, although I was still a little sobbing when I spoke.
I said, "Grandma, I'm so scared. ”
"Well, I know. ”
I added, "Those aliens are so scary, they don't care how many people will die, they just want to kill me and take the seal." ”
"Well, I know. ”
"When I first saw the ghosts, I thought it was a zombie invasion and the end of the world. I was so scared that I almost peed my pants. ”
"Well, I know. ”
"If it weren't for Edrak and Osinya, I would have died a hundred times by now. ”
"Well, I know. ”
I raised my head, grabbed the corner of my grandmother's coat and begged, "Grandma, can't I really go with you?"
Grandma shook her head: "Your time is not up yet." You don't belong here. ”
The flame of hope is extinguished little by little in my chest, and perhaps, this is the end that cannot be reversed by manpower.
"That'...... Will I ever see you again?"
"If there is fate, we will definitely meet again. ”
I knew that things could not be turned around at this point: "Grandma, I will definitely live well." Even if the world I was familiar with has completely changed to a different shape, even if a large group of strange alien races will chase me every day to kill me, even if I am engraved with the mark of the Hades that are said to be very powerful and powerful, even if I suddenly become a Si Hades who I don't know what it is, I will live well. Study well, run our family's commissary well, and live this life well. ”
I looked into my grandmother's eyes, word by word, in a solemn tone, not only as a promise to my grandmother but also to myself: "I will not run away, nor will I be afraid." I will definitely live this life bravely. ”
I have always been a cowardly and weak snail, because I am afraid of the outside world, so I curl up my soft flesh in that little shell, and then declare to the world: "Look! How strong I am! I am not afraid of you!"
Unbridled laughter is just a disguise for my cowardice.
It's a pity that the snail's shell only seems to be powerful, and the outside world can crush that shell with a slight movement. I had to face the wind and rain of the world with a soft body, and then, after countless injuries, I forged an armor for myself with blood.
Grandma patted me on the head and smiled with satisfaction: "It's my grandson." Keep it up!"
The surrounding landscape suddenly cracked, like a mural in disrepair falling from a dazzling layer of paint, revealing a suffocating black void behind the color.
Grandma's realm of fame is actually starting to crumble!
Grandma frowned tightly and said hatefully, "Damn! That guy ......"
Could it be that the collapse of the realm of fame was due to someone's attack?
According to the Nine Lands, the underworld is a place that can only be reached by the deceased name and the living who bear the seal of the underworld. And in such an almost isolated vacuum, someone can actually attack the name inside, what kind of powerful power should that person have!
After the collapse of the realm of fame, what danger will the grandmother encounter?
I didn't know anything, and I was anxious: "Grandma!"
Grandma's face changed and she shoved me out of the way, "Get out of here! ”
The collapse of the realm of name is rapid. As soon as Grandma's words fell, the cracks that collapsed had already extended to her feet. Grandma recited a spell, and a soft white light enveloped me, carrying me swiftly into the darkness.
"Grandma'——!"
