248 The Soul Returns
Zhu Zhen didn't expect Winston to be there, and after being stunned for a while, his expression was indifferent, he just said this to Iris in private, and he didn't mean to let Winston hear it, but Winston heard it, and he didn't have any good intentions, and that's the case, he wasn't afraid to say it in front of Winston.
Iris took a half step forward from the side, forming a protective posture, nodded at Winston, and leaned to the side with a bamboo hoop, how to say that they are juniors on this side, and they should make way for Winston. Winston didn't follow the steps given by Iris, he stood silent, looking at the bamboo hoop standing beside Iris.
But in the past 100 years, Winston has become two people who seem to be completely different from before.
It's not that his appearance is beginning to age, in the interstellar world, where the average age is seven or eight hundred, Winston is still very young, he is still tall and handsome, there is not a trace of wrinkles on his face, his breath is calm and amazing, and his body has precipitated a strong killing aura from the battlefield, adding a touch of terrifying charm to his silence. Such a Winston, as long as it stops there, will also attract countless admirers like wild bees and butterflies, moving human-shaped hormones, not to mention the charm.
It's just that those eyes are full of vicissitudes, telling those who know that for so many years, he may not have anything to do with ease.
Bamboo hoop did not dodge, in the past hundred years, he was so busy, things were almost one after another, there was no time to pay attention to how Winston was, just like when he left Roland Manor, if it weren't for the fact that Iris was Winston's nephew, then from that moment on, he and Winston had been cut in two, becoming two straight lines after intersecting - there was no possibility of intersecting again. After a hundred years, looking at Winston's face again, knowing that he was not doing well, Zhu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so it would be good.
When a person is in love, he will unconsciously hurt others and be hurt unconsciously. It was inevitable, and there was nothing wrong with Winston not loving him; Winston loves Shafan, and there's nothing wrong with that; It doesn't mean that all the hurt for love is worthy and forgivable.
There is a marriage relationship between them, Chris personally went to the mermaid center to apply for him and become Winston's partner, Winston did not refuse at the first time, but accepted the matter, so it is not natural for both parties to maintain mutual respect and loyalty within the marriage. It can't be said that because he didn't show love for Winston in the end, he justified those injuries.
Winston betrayed the trust he gave, betrayed his expectations of Winston, destroyed his expectations of a family, and completely destroyed a mermaid - if he was really just a native mermaid, unaccompanied, and helpless, how would he deal with the kindness of the perpetrator...... Even without such assumptions, does Winston think that it would be so easy to force a mermaid to change his worldview?
If you can live easily and walk on the flat road, who is willing to use flesh and blood to overcome obstacles?
The culprit is not qualified for forgiveness.
Winston looked at the bamboo hoop in front of him, and only felt great pain in his heart, but still no condemnation, no resentment, just such strange eyes, as if what he said was just a dispensable weather comment, and in a calm tone, he said nothing more than that, but he didn't know that the words turned into sharp arrows, and he saw that he was stabbed all over with blood...... The round nails of the hanging hands pierced the palms of the hands.
He would rather the bamboo basket hate him forever, so that at least he left traces in the bamboo basket's heart, both good and bad. But this humble and despicable hope is also destroyed at this moment, and Zhu Zhen is talking about acceptance, not forgiveness. In the heart of the bamboo hoop, I am afraid that he is completely no different from the many people in the hall below.
No, the only difference may be that his face is a little uglier.
Unable to describe the mood at this moment, Winston only felt pain everywhere in his body, under the gaze of the bamboo hoop, he couldn't even help the urge to tremble, but his heart was a bitter smile, why did he know today? If it weren't for him...... Nothing will go to today.
But gods, if you want me to see it, why don't you wake me up sooner? At this moment, I wouldn't be standing across from him, being looked at by him with such a late look, and Iris, who would smile and hug them, and even a little guy would happily shout "Little Uncle" to Iris.
All the happiness that should have was strangled by his own hands while destroying the bamboo hoop.
So this moment is the punishment of the gods, right? Winston felt the pain of suffocation, he raised his hand to do something, but finally put it down, his eyes swept to the lively crowd in the hall below, Winston finally suppressed all his thoughts and pain, took heavy steps, and passed by the two of them.
Zhu Zhen and Iris glanced at each other, and they both found the surprise in each other's eyes, why did Chris take the initiative to take out such a cumbersome thing as holding a banquet, isn't it just to give Winston a chance to untie the knot, he must have also told Winston, the old man looks at everything is fine now, the past is naturally not the same thing, they are a real family, there is no need to give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of old things. I didn't expect Winston to say a word.
After walking a few steps, the bamboo hoop turned around to see that Winston's back was particularly sparse.
"Winston." The bamboo hoop called Winston, Winston stiffened for a moment, Iris opened his mouth wide, and the bamboo hoop soothed him with a look, before he said to Winston, "Be kind to Xia Fan, don't let me look down on you." ”
With that, he and Iris left hand in hand, leaving Winston alone.
Situ. Zhu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, Winston was always in place, I hope this time, he can take that step, he is not kind to persuade him, not to this extent, just ...... Chris is Iris's grandfather, and Iris's two relatives are in this world. He didn't want Iris to have to fight against the only remaining relatives in the world because of him.
They already have enough enemies, and it is difficult to prevent the intrigue and wit with the enemy, in case, he and Iris are not gods, otherwise they would not have been conspired to endanger their lives five years ago. It's not a bad thing to let everything turn over without saying anything.
He did not accept the apology. But it doesn't mean that you don't look to others for good. Winston's family turmoil is not good for them, but a lot of trouble, you must know that Winston is Iris's own uncle, and Winston's wife can be regarded as the name of the elders in front of them, and there is no one who is more knowledgeable and better than Xia Fan.
Iris thought about it, naturally also understood the bamboo hoop's painstaking efforts, he grabbed the bamboo hoop's hand, just the hall below into the dance link, he bent over the bamboo hoop, stretched out his hand to make an inviting motion, the bamboo hoop smiled lightly and put his hand on it, riding the brisk rhythm of the music, dancing on the dance floor.
At the end of the dance, the audience immediately applauded, the music changed and did not stop, Iris's second dance was still to invite the bamboo hoop, the third refused countless people, still invited the bamboo hoop, and after the three dances ended, he stopped dancing, after the banquet, Iris updated the dynamics, and once again strongly exposed a wave of husband and children, in exchange for countless blind but forcibly ignored comments, Iris said very good, I praised me for the hoop! As for Coco's bear child, who once again occupied the arms of the bamboo hoop, Iris refused to praise him.
Sure enough, the sons born are all cheated fathers. Iris sat on the bed with a dark face and thought, the last time he explained to Sephiroth about the issue of room permissions, and when it came to the word privacy, Sephiroth said that it made sense - Iris lost access to his precious son's room.
What's even more odious is the differential treatment, why is Sephiroth's secrecy or unilateral failure? So the night-raid secretly took away the bamboo hoop or something, don't even think about it.
Sure enough, the son has no pit, only more pits. Iris's face is very dark, it seems that he has to take some time to talk to Sephiroth about independence, he is so old and so clingy to the mermaid father, he must be weak and chirp when he grows up, and he will not be liked by the mermaid!
***
After the banquet, Xia Fan completely changed.
He took the initiative to apply to go to the border, even if his mermaid child Winter asked, he did not stop for this, and went resolutely, he actually heard what the bamboo basket said to Winston. Seriously, it's not that it's not sad...... His love, maybe the moment he promised Winston, no, maybe when he had an undeserved relationship with Winston, died, right? Killed by his selfishness, he became ugly and unbearable.
Still, the victim is the one who has to admonish Winston. It also made him feel particularly uncomfortable. He could no longer face everything in the Imperial Capital Star, and he remembered what he saw when he looked back, his original dream - to get out of the garbage star and realize his own value. Strictly speaking, nothing has been done yet.
A mermaid asks to go to the front line, which is another taboo for the diehards, worried that the power will fall into the hands of the mermaid, so that the mermaid equality center's right to speak in politics will be more important. When he married Winston, he retained his military status, medals, and the right to go to war with Winston, but he no longer had the opportunity to be promoted and go to war alone
Xia Fan asked Zhu Zhen for help, and Zhu Zhen thought about it for a long time, united with the Equal Rights Center, and finally let Xia Fan successfully go to the battlefield as a mermaid soldier, and Xia Fan also represented the mermaid and became the first mermaid to be named a colonel in the history of the empire, adding an important stroke to the equal rights of mermaids.
Xia Fan, who returned to the capital star, did not go back to guard Winston again, looking forward to the love that he was no longer passionate about, but like two people who lived together, maybe love has not been extinguished, but it is no longer so important, Xia Fan thought, what he had said at the bamboo hoop 'funeral', he finally had enough courage to face and accept it.
After Xia Fan came back, he resigned from his position in the army and devoted himself to the mermaid equality movement, and his relationship with Zhuzhen was good.
Winston is still the people's god of war, and he has never been alone, but if he is willing to look back, he can also have someone to rely on.
After all, the life span of interstellar humans is too long, and all the damage and past will fade under the washing of time, and finally disappear. On the occasion of the enactment of the new legislation with the participation of the mermaids, Duke Iris and his companion Mr. Taketsu passed away, and their only son, Sephiroth, and his partner Lancelot were buried together.
At the time of the establishment of new legislation with the participation of mermaids, and the publication of a new epoch-making medical technology, Duke Iris and his companion, Mr. Taketsu, passed away. The early death of the two is a loss of the times, a loss of society, they walked peacefully, with a smile on the corner of their mouths, the two hugged each other intimately, left in their sleep, countless people cried bitterly for the death of the two, both of them are heroes in the hearts of the world-
One person has stood up several times to fight with the god of war Winston on the front line to protect the safety of the people, and is known as the reassuring 'smiling death', and the other person, as the leader of the mermaid movement, advocates that mermaids should enjoy the same rights as humans, correct the deformed society, and make the society tend to a balanced and stable development.
Both of them are born, glorious and mournful, and glorious in life.
And the relationship between the two of them has always been talked about by the interstellar people, decades of love, their son Sephiroth has also become an excellent warrior, the pursuit is many years older than him, once took over the position of the bamboo hoop after the bamboo hoop fell asleep Mermaid Lancelot, Sephiroth inherited his father's strengths and weaknesses very well, and became a sunning maniac.
It really makes the people of the empire nostalgic and sad, and they can't help but feel sad that there is a person who can never return to their life, and they can no longer know his state.
The death of a great man is often heart-wrenching, but no matter how sad and sad it is, people always look forward, just like the gears of time go forward, and the traces of history do not look back - people are moving forward, and society will progress, which is the reason why human beings have never been eliminated in the long river of history, and there will always be people who correct their mistakes and lead mankind to the right path.
And those people are thousands of years later, even if there is only one name left, they still shine.
This is the so-called - inheritance, civilization, spirit, wealth. It is the upright backbone of the people and the glory that will never be forgotten. 166 Reading Network
