Chapter 150: Leaving the Forgotten City
"Uncle, there is something I don't understand, I want to ask."
I shook off the negativity in my head and opened my mouth to the old man in front of me. The old man was obviously a little confused by my sudden opening of his mouth to ask questions, so he simply nodded at me and acquiesced to my question.
"Say it!"
His voice was deep and traveled far away.
"Can you tell me what is the hardest thing in your life for you to let go?"
I kept my eyes glued to him, wanting him to answer my question head-on, which also determined whether I could completely resolve the knot in the hearts of the two brothers in front of me, after all, there was also the revenge of killing my father, how could it be easily resolved.
"Girl, I can't answer your question, but if a person asks you the same question, how do you answer it?"
He didn't answer me, but asked me a rhetorical question, which made me a little stunned, but it completely stopped me.
I thought over and over the question I had just asked, but I couldn't find an unusually accurate answer. This is the reason why I opened my mouth to ask, and it was precisely because there was no accurate answer to this question that I was able to make an accurate persuasion after listening to the old man's words, and see that everything was defeated at the moment, and was completely frustrated by the old man in front of me who looked unusually gentle, but in fact had a woman-like thoughtful mind in his heart.
"If you don't have the answer that seems most appropriate to you, then don't answer it."
When the old man saw that my face was entangled, he comforted me not to think too much, and maybe it was a good choice in the end.
"No, it's the same question for me, and I can say that I've been thinking about it since the day my father died, whether you believe me or not, but I always feel that the hardest thing in my life has not yet appeared, only one is left to seek, and I always feel that one day I will meet the person or object that I have the hardest time parting. But that doesn't mean that the physical objects I once cared about don't exist, and if one day I really forget my father, when I really forget the memories that are important to me, I think there will be a moment when I will remember them. ”
I said firmly to the old man in front of me. Although I feel that what I said is very bad, I really hope that he can face it at the moment, instead of thinking that he can avoid it, which is really not good, whether it is me as a spectator. Nor their brothers, who are in the game, will never be a good thing.
"I know, girl, maybe I shouldn't be so persistent, it seems that it's time to let go, I really want to thank you just now, if you hadn't rushed up to block it, I'm afraid I would have really hurt the brother I always cared about, although I don't want to admit that the murderer is my brother, but I can't look at him and leave him alone, I think my father will always forgive him. Regardless of whether they are related by blood or not, they are always sons who have been raised for so many years, and even if the son does something wrong, the father will always be able to forgive his child. I finally understood. ”
As if he had thought of something, the old man's eyes instantly widened, and his thoughts seemed to drift to a far away.
"Brother, is this a relief for me?"
The city lord who was kneeling on the ground suddenly brightened his eyes and wanted to come up, but was put aside by the old man's deliberate retreat.
"Father, I finally understood. The last thing you want to say is not to let me compensate you, but to forgive Xiao Le, right? ”
The old man also knelt on the ground, tears of excitement overflowing from his eyes. No matter what kind of situation Xiao Le was in at that time, his father was able to forgive him with a tolerant heart in the end, and even a dying person could let go of this child who had hurt him, so why didn't he let go.
I looked at the two people in front of me, although I didn't know what the old man was thinking, but it was always their family's business. I think it's time for me to step out.
Slowly stood up, this time I didn't say a word to the two brothers in front of me, raised my feet and walked out of this room, it's time to leave, as for what their brothers will become next, it has nothing to do with me, after all, the forgotten city is just a passing place on my way forward, since I can't stay for a long time, then simply leave here at this moment.
Quietly leaving the Forgotten City, when I looked back at the two retro characters on the city gate deeply, and silently said goodbye to it in my heart, I once again set foot on the road to the Sunless Mountain.
With every step I took forward, I could feel a gust of wind carrying yin qi through my clothes and hit my body directly, I didn't know what to do for a while, I could only endure quietly, but the pace under my feet still didn't stop and divide, I couldn't be hit here, it was just an extremely biting wind, don't want to block my way.
I thought to myself as I continued to walk forward, glancing at the mountain range that had fallen in the clouds, and I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally puffed out my cheeks and continued to walk towards the dim land ahead.
snow
Suddenly there was a feeling of snow under my feet, so I couldn't help but look into the distance, to see if the sky was snowing, this look at my whole person was completely stunned by the scene in front of me, that is snow yes, but it is by no means ordinary snow, it does not have a white color, but every falling snow is glowing with a blood-colored red light, this is not the white snow in the world, but the red snow in the sky, for this seemingly strange scene, I am even a little unbelievable, after all, in my cognition, Snow is supposed to be white and flawless, the kind that presents a goose-feather frozen world, but it is not like this now, and everything in front of me completely subverts all my previous thoughts.
A red footprint next step of the foot, the thick red snowflakes on the ground stepped into one red footprint after another, if you look at it from a high altitude, it must be a row of strange wonders, after all, the person who left footprints here, I'm afraid I am the only one.
But tomorrow it will be snowing, but I don't feel a trace of cold, but the more and more I go, the hotter and hotter, and finally the whole person is like an ant lying on a hot pot, constantly rotating around the edge of the paste, but never out of the pot.
I thought about it, and there was a little doubt in my mind, but it was only for a moment, and suddenly there were small holes in the snow in front of me, which made me have to be vigilant, and I really didn't know what they were used for. (To be continued.) )
