Chapter 7: The End of the Mountain (8)
"Han Kui!" Bai Yutong exclaimed, could it be that rat poop again? Why is she always ghostly?
Bai Yutong didn't have much affection for Han Kui, he guessed that the girl was probably brainwashed by the cult, otherwise her brain couldn't be so abnormal, and there was always something about love and hatred on her lips, which made people wonder if she was a psychopath.
"It's all because I didn't handle the relationship with her well, and because I wasn't decisive enough, if I could see it better, it wouldn't have happened......"
"What happened between you?" Thinking of Han Kui who was scratching his head and making a gesture, Bai Yutong began to constantly make up some strange pictures in his mind, he really wanted to complain at the moment, It's better to check the behavior of making a baby, brother......
"The past is unbearable!" Jiang Luoheng's voice was yin and yang, like an uncle who loved the saint.
How messy is this? Bai Yutong's brain supplement has reached a height that ordinary people can't reach.
"Someone is calling you...... it's time to wake up," the voice was ethereal, and finally faded away.
"Wait, brother, you haven't finished explaining yet, don't be busy leaving!" Bai Yutong sat up in shock, opened his mouth as round as an egg, and gasped vigorously in his mouth.
There was a small night light on the cabinet at the head of the bed, and the light it transmitted was very dim, but Bai Yutong could see through it Zhang Ruonan sitting next to him wearing a white suspender nightdress.
"Okay, what a coincidence!" Bai Yutong greeted her dryly, "It's so late, haven't you slept either......"
"Well, did you have a nightmare?" Zhang Ruonan pulled the scattered broken hair behind his ears, "My name has been pronounced on his lips." β
"Yes, yes?" Bai Yutong was confused.
"Hmm. Zhang Ruonan didn't think about it, "And you still scratch my hand very painfully." β
What kind of hand? Bai Yutong didn't know why, he was looking for Zhang Ruonan's hand in a daze, and through the faint light, he found that next to the quilt, his hand was tightly holding her hand, like a girl dragging her LV bag that was being dragged by the robbers.
"Ahh
Zhang Ruonan chuckled and shook his head, "You don't have to care, I was originally your wife." After saying that, she got up and poured a glass of water, and then handed it to Bai Yutong.
"Thank you!" Bai Yutong was feeling a little thirsty, so he poured the whole glass of water into his throat in one gulp.
"Do you still want it?" Zhang Ruonan smiled and looked a little relieved.
"No need, you better go and rest first!" Bai Yutong suddenly had a strong respect in his heart, and this deep concern probably was...... Mother's love, right?
"Alright then, Luo Heng, you have to go to bed early. After Zhang Ruonan put down the water glass, he returned to his bed.
"Well, good night!"
"Good night. β
Bai Yutong lay down again, pulled the quilt over his body, and the next moment, a strong tiredness swept through his brain.
I'm so tired...... Bai Yutong gradually fell asleep.
"Do you want to save that girl named Gu Yanrou?" a deep voice suddenly exploded in Bai Yutong's mind.
Bai Yutong suddenly woke up, he subconsciously looked left and right, but found nothing, so he closed his eyes again.
"If you want, let's go!" the ethereal voice reappeared.
Bai Yutong's eyes widened in disbelief this time, and he exclaimed, "Is that you, brother?"
He noticed that his voice was a little louder, so he turned his head to look at Zhang Ruonan's bed, and sweet breathing sounded from her mouth.
The voice was a little hateful, "Don't make a sound, you can talk to me if you think of something to say in your head." β
"Oooh. Bai Yutong replied obediently.
"Your female companion is in danger right now, and if you want to save her, you'll have to leave now!"
"Huh?" Bai Yutong sat up from the bed, and he asked suspiciously, "How do you know?"
"When I was in the square before, I noticed it through my soul perception. β
Bai Yutong suddenly became excited, "You controlled my body just now?"
He remembered that he had been pointing at random in the square, and he told everyone that he had made a joke, but it wasn't like that, but someone had taken control of his body and made him deliberately do what he said and did.
And Bai Yutong vaguely guessed that this person was Jiang Luoheng in his head.
"Control? well, you can understand that. Jiang Luoheng's calm voice exploded in his head, "But I must make you understand one thing, that is, without your permission, I will not control your body at will in the future." β
Bai Yutong was frightened into a cold sweat by his words, what if he saw that he was unhappy that day and committed suicide by controlling this body?
Wait, I'm stupid. Bai Yutong suddenly began to deny himself, how could I, a person who has committed suicide, think like this - want to live?
Is it because you can't bear what you have now?
It's ironic enough that a person who has committed suicide is afraid of losing, which is probably another manifestation of the stranded fish being afraid of drowning, right?
Bai Yutong heard a story called "Worrying about the sky", about a fool in the country of Qi in the past, when others were still worried about finding a job and finding a daughter-in-law, he was worried about whether the sky would fall and whether the earth would fall.
At this time, Comrade Huo Lei Feng appeared beside him, and he enlightened him in extremely simple language, "You are a street boy! You don't want to contribute to the great infrastructure of the motherland, but you are in a daze here, no matter how lazy you are, believe it or not, I will deduct your salary for one day?"
Hearing Comrade Lei Feng's generous statement, this classmate was convinced, so his life got back on track and moved bricks even harder......
This story was told to Bai Yutong by Zhao Lintan, it tells us that we can't always expect that the sky will stone the contractor to death, and the earth will bury the city leaders alive.
After many years, Bai Yutong thought of this story again, and he deeply realized that Zhao Lintan said the bullshit at that time was to tell Bai Yutong that he should be self-motivated.
If you want to do it, then fight fate to the end!
Ever since Bai Yutong had crossed over, those old memories had flashed through his mind from time to time, and trivial matters were like chains, tying Bai Yutong and guiding him into the temple or the abyss.
I really don't want to remember that pain.
He wanted to escape, but he couldn't, because he never lost the past. It's not that he can't forget, it's just that he doesn't want to do it, because that's the life he's experienced!
This life is like a prison without shackles, he can freely shuttle through these worlds that bother him, but he can only be dominated by them at will, like a goldfish in a water tank. He's a puppet in the palm of his hand, he's an actor in the play, he's a pawn in the game, he's like a sunfish drifting with the flow......
"Why do you think so much! Don't worry, I won't hurt you. The voice became soft, and the tone was like a conversation between a father and a daughter.
Hearing Jiang Luoheng say this, Bai Yutong became a little relieved.
"I'll probably say goodbye to you before dawn today......"
"Why, are you going on a business trip?" Bai Yutong picked up his slightly sad face and asked curiously.
"It's hard to explain, but if you're willing to listen, I'll explain it to you slowly, because you're going to be the only listener in my last life!"
Bai Yutong sat as upright as he could, and then pricked up his ears, he liked to listen to stories.
"During the resurrection ceremony, in the face of Han Kui's sudden attack, almost everyone was hit hard. β
"Huh, what level is Han Kui?" Bai Yutong asked.
"It was the watchman at the time. β
"But you said before that the people who participated in the resurrection ceremony were all masters above the watchman, right? Why can't so many people beat one, shouldn't they?"
"Actually, Han Kui's own strength is not strong, she just forcibly borrowed the power of Guiru, and these masters have consumed a lot of source power because ......of the resurrection ceremony, so they are a little powerless," Jiang Luoheng explained.
Bai Yutong asked again, "...... them Don't have a checkpoint?"
"Originally, there were, but because there was too much shortage of people, I replaced them. It is impossible for a powerhouse of their level to waste too much time, and the resurrection ritual has failed many times, so they are all impatient. β
"Damn? This kind of person is too lacking in heart, isn't it?
"Because of the uninterruptible nature of the resurrection ceremony, many people have no way to join the battle directly, and they all use elves to start a battle with Han Kui. And Han Kui relied on the power of returning to the ruins, seven in and seven out, almost invincible......"
"At a critical juncture, in order to preserve the overall situation, Ruonan used a giant non-fixed point teleportation scroll to transfer everyone out. This is the alchemy tool I collected in my early years, and I didn't expect it to come in handy in this situation. β
"However, this scroll is actually a defective product, and it does not teleport everyone to an indefinite point, but from a different indefinite point. The former is probably to teleport a handful of melon seeds to a point, while the latter is to disrupt all the melon seeds, and then randomly teleport them to an indiscriminate point. β
"In this way, the Holy Grail lost the support of the source power, and just when I once again thought that my resurrection was innocent, a miracle happened, and the defective scroll due to its age, in the process of teleportation, leaked an unusually large amount of source power, which just filled up the source power required by the Holy Grail, but the source power imprisoned by the runes inside the scroll has deteriorated, which also changes the trigger effect of the Holy Grail......"
"In this way, the resurrection ritual becameβthe summoning ritual, and you answered the call of the Holy Grail, squeezed into my body, and took my place......"
Bai Yutong finally understood the reason why he crossed the other world at this moment, it turned out that he was summoned by the organization!
"I'm sorry!" he felt a strong sense of apology.
No wonder he would appear naked on the grassland, no wonder he would have such a huge source of power in his body, it turned out that he was stained with other people's light, and he was blessed by others.
"It's okay...... Perhaps this is my fate, my consciousness is imprisoned in a narrow corner by your soul, and in order to dissipate, I can perceive your presence, but I cannot communicate with you. I feel your awakening, I feel your confusion, your emotions, your words and deeds, your state, I can feel everything that comes from you. β
"So I began to observe you, to think about you, to guess all your ...... But you are very different from what I imagined, and I could not even understand your words and actions for a long time, and I became more and more curious about your origins, and I wanted to know more and more about what kind of person occupied my body......"
"But until now I don't fully understand you, I can't deny you, I can't admit you, I can't see through your past and future. β
Bai Yutong turned his head to look in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling window, and the bright moonlight diffused into the room through the glass, like a curtain.
"Just as you broke through the inhibition of the ruins, I also escaped from the place where I was imprisoned, I regained control of this body, and at that moment, countless thoughts came to my mind, both positive and negative...... I wonder if I reoccupy your body, will you die?"
Bai Yutong was silent.
"I didn't like that my life was bought for someone else's death, and in the end I gave up this precious chance to survive, but it was this one that let that opportunity slip away from meβyour body is forever closed to me, and even the place where my soul is imprisoned is locked to me. β
"My soul has nowhere to rest, so after losing the protection of the Holy Grail, my soul will fade step by step until it burns to ashes......"
