Epilogue The Future
Epilogue The Future
At the beginning of his acquaintance with Jin Duan, in that dilapidated small apartment, Lu Su unexpectedly found a letter left for him by Cheng Guzhi, sandwiched in a book that Jin Duan could not be interested in reading.
"Lu Su, when you see this letter, first of all, I should be gone, and in addition, you may have become a broken refiner. You must be curious about my experience in the past few years, this piece of paper should not be able to write, and besides, this is not the point. What I want to tell you is that she is a demon with a very far-reaching origin, she and another 'female' child, a 'female' child called 'Hua' Yue, they are refined by the dragon slayer monk with his two finger bones, one is yang, and the other is 'yin'.
"Of course I don't know what happened at that time, but one thing I am very sure of is that the Dragon Slayer Monk planted the seed of the future in the bodies of these two demons, and for this seed to take root and sprout, to change the world, they must be safely sent into that world, that ultimate world. This is the mission of the Lu family all along, although it is about to disappear in time, I was surprised to find a book, which can be regarded as fulfilling this mission on behalf of others.
"I know I can't live long, because I have a terminal illness, in order to maintain my life, I have to let me do some dirty work to earn money, if I die one day, I think the most suitable person to do this job is you, Lu Su! So, let me, the one who died young, act as a guide for the horn 'color', and the main character is you, not me.
"Now that you read this letter, there are many things that you should not understand, but it doesn't matter, one day you will understand, remember that your mission is to send her and that 'girl' child into that world, and make them strong enough. You may think it's a little funny, your uncle who doesn't do his job has something to do with changing the world one day, what qualifications does a mortal have to say such things, in fact, what was the original motive, I don't have an answer, I don't know why I did it, it's just that 'if you don't do something, you will never know what will happen', this is my motto, and it's yours, remember?
"An ordinary life can live vigorously once, and this world is not in vain. Even if you will die, even if you are still small in the end, for you and me, it is the experience, not the result, that is important! ”
After reading this letter in a hurry, Lu Su scratched his head and frowned, this is simply a monologue of the second middle school! At this time, Jin Duan rushed in and shouted, "Hey, I found a super delicious fast food restaurant." ”
Afraid of being discovered, Lu Su hurriedly clenched the yellowed letter into a ball, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it.
"What are you eating behind my back?" Jin Duan said with wide eyes.
"Persimmons!"
"What's that?"
"A dry cake made of fruit."
"Is it sweet, is it delicious? Give me a taste. ”
"Nope!"
Jin Duan rushed up to search his body, of course Lu Su couldn't have it, so he was knocked on the head. The sun was very bright that morning, and the golden sunlight sprinkled into this small apartment like honey, and at that time, every time she looked at Jinduan, her beauty made Lu Su feel a sense of suffocation.
After meeting for the first time, Lu Su secretly made up his mind that he must get the brocade in his hands!
However, because he was nervous when talking to the 'girl', he was afraid of 'stiffening' the relationship between the refining person and her, wouldn't it be very embarrassing to work together in the future, but Lu Su didn't take any action to confess. What's more, there is a Cheng Guzhi between them, although he thinks about Jinduan's face every night, but when they meet, he can only pretend to be ordinary.
In fact, in his heart at that time, he liked Jinduan very, very much, so strong that he couldn't stop 'desire'. But after getting along for a while, the two can't even be considered friends, Lu Su thought discouragedly, it is estimated that it is impossible for the two of them.
He was a very secretive man, and he didn't show any 'show' of Jinduan's affection, and of course he didn't mention his uncle's letter to anyone. Sometimes when I think back to the content of the letter, there are many things that I really don't understand, or even take it completely inappropriate.
And at this moment, Lu Su thought back again, and he had completely understood.
The mission of the Lu family is to send Jin Duan and Worm Ting into that world, this mission ends with him, and when everything becomes a memory, his heart seems to be opened by a 'hole', which is an empty void that cannot be filled.
In the days after they disappeared from this world, Lu Su lived a decadent life, drinking beer, 'smoking' cigarettes, wandering around the internet, watching anything and not being able to concentrate, even a five-minute short film. Every night he would dream of Jin Xuan, wake up empty, and then fall asleep again, and unconsciously cry out, tears staining the pillow. Or not sleep for two nights in a row, and finally lie down on the couch and fall asleep until he is extremely sleepy, so that he will not dream again, and will not wake up from his dreams.
Lu Su's demon physique has not completely disappeared, it seems that the demon cells are more brutal than human cells, and it only takes an instant to replace them, but when they fade, it takes a while to 'spend', and this process may be three months, because the body's metabolism is in a three-month cycle.
Lu Su can still jump three meters high, and he can run very fast, but after losing seven hundred demons, his strength has been drastically reduced, and even his self-healing ability has become very slow.
The process of humanization is slow but sure, and in the end he will completely transform back into a mortal, a mortal who can only look up to the world, a mortal who can only pray but cannot fight.
On the seventh day, Lu Su boiled a bucket of very hot bath water, and the boiling water poured on his body, as if he was reborn from a fire, and after taking a bath and shaving his face, he told himself that life should go on.
What matters is the process, not the result, he is an adult of sound mind, and the blow of losing a lover is not enough to deny life.
He's still Lu Su!
If you are far away, you can start to forget.
Lu Su drove his own car to the Chu Mansion, Henry had been waiting for him for a long time, Chu Qianque really left, and left him tens of billions of family property. Seeing this luxurious mansion, Lu Su secretly thought that if he was willing to ask for it, his future life would be a drunken and luxurious 'fan', he didn't need to make money, the money here was enough for him to live a lazy life.
However, he didn't want such a life, not to mention that after becoming a mortal, he had no ability to protect these possessions, and too much money would only invite disaster.
After having a luxurious lunch at the Chu Mansion, Lu Su was about to say goodbye, and Henry caught up with him and said, "When the young master left, he said that everything here will be at the disposal of Mr. Lu in the future." ”
"How much money is here."
"Two tens of billion."
"I don't need so much, you go and prepare a 50 million card for me, register it with my information, and send it to my home after 'getting' it."
"All you need is that?" Henry said in surprise.
"yes!" Lu Su smiled, he didn't regard money as dung, he just didn't want to be stumped by money, he still had his own plans in the future, "The rest of the money belongs to you!" ”
He patted Henry on the shoulder and left, and the foreigner, who had been a housekeeper for half his life, stared at him blankly.
Lu Su bought a full set of insurance for his parents and Lu Jin, and put the three people he loves the most in the world into the safe, so that his parents can live with a high pension after they are sixty years old, and they don't have to worry about medical problems.
However, at home, he can't go back for the time being, because he was a big fan before, and those demons don't know that he is a human now, maybe he can go home in a year, grow up with Lu Jin, and educate her on the way of being a human being. There is Lu Jin in this world, at least the evidence of Jinduan's existence has not completely disappeared, she and her mother have very similar faces, but their brains are as flexible as their father, this is an angel-like little girl, Lu Su plans to pour all the love in the future into his 'daughter'.
In the room where they left, Lu Su drank beer quietly, looked at the curtain, and remembered the events of that night countless times, the old man said, "What is the fate of our demons, do you understand?" ”
Lu Su understands very well that it is to kill each other, even if they are friends now, this ultimate fate cannot be escaped.
He had thought about this question a long time ago, why the demons wanted to kill each other, why the 'flesh' body was impermanent, and the demons were immortal. The answer is very simple, the demon is the main body that dominates the world, and they converge on an individual through a series of brutal battles, and it is an inevitable trend to gather more and more.
The answer to the question of what kind of changes these spirits will produce when they come together is an unknown one, and it may not be visible in the real world.
Then, if you think about it in this direction, it is not difficult to know what that world is, it cannot be heaven, it can only be the purgatory of demons, and it is a place where you fight each other. Then one day, they will also follow the law and kill each other. This cruel reality, Jin Duan chose to bear it himself.
One day, Jin Duan will 'fight' with the old man, one of them will kill the other and eat them; one day Worm Ting will 'fight' with Long Kui and Chu Qianque, one of them will kill the other two and eat them; maybe one day, Jin Duan and Worm Ting, who have reached the top of that world, will also 'fight', one of them will kill the other and eat them, and the whole of 'Yin' and Yang will converge on one individual and become a god-like existence.
The so-called change of the world should be to stand at that apex.
They knew this ending very well, so they kicked Lu Su out before it came, so that he could live in peace. Thinking of this, he forgave them for their cruelty, and was very, very sad.
Lu Su tapped on the keyboard and began to write the story of him and Jin Duan from the beginning, of course, he used other names in order not to cause trouble for himself. He didn't have the talent of his father, he just relied on a passion to write, so another brocade lived in his words, talking to her, looking at her, kissing her, his empty heart seemed to get a little comfort, and the process of reliving memories made him feel warm.
He wrote day and night, and a month had passed, and the wound in his heart had scabbed and healed, but it still hurt faintly when he touched it with his hand.
One day a month later, Kinoshita Cicada suddenly contacted him, and the two of them were very emotional after a long time on the call, Kinoshita Cicada asked, "How are you doing now?" ”
"I ...... Something happened to me, and now I'm alone. ”
"What about them?"
"I don't want to say it."
"By the way, it's not me who is taking advantage of others. Forging armor resigned, and now I lack an adjutant, do you think about it? Kinoshita added, "If you want, I'll be the deputy, and you can be the right." ”
"What are you kidding, I'm not a chicken right now...... I'm mortal now. ”
"Are you kidding?"
"Nope!"
"Why?"
"I don't want to say it!"
After a moment of silence, Kinoshita Cicada said: "Even if you are a mortal, your skills are still there, your skills and brains are completely qualified for a captain, think about it, I will give you three days to reply." ”
This is a possibility for the future, but Lu Su is not interested in becoming the captain of the demon slayer team, he no longer wants to fight and kill.
After Kinoshita Cicada, Dai Xue found him, and found him from the Internet, Lu Su has a very deserted blog, and he usually doesn't take care of it at all.
"I heard Captain Mu talk about you, what happened to you?"
"Well, that's understandable."
"First of all, I don't want to rob Captain Mu's people, but I have a proposal you can consider, come to the first team to be a member, and we will arrange a place for you to live, and the salary is not bad."
"He asked me to be the captain, and you asked me to be the team member? What intentions. ”
"I'm serious about making this suggestion, you're very smart anyway, those spell knowledge, you should be easy to learn, and besides, you know demons better than anyone else. The important thing is that there is a place for your talents to be displayed. ”
When he was an ordinary but real demon slayer, Lu Su was a little fascinated by himself, pinching the talisman and shouting "order".
"I'll think about it."
"Is it okay for three days?"
"Yes! By the way, how are you and Yan Slashing Butterfly doing now......"
"We?"
"Nonsense."
"You're so sluggish!"
She didn't speak anymore, and Lu Su suddenly noticed that the nickname of the chat account was Snow Butterfly, plus the "we" she said, what the state of the two of them is now, and you can guess it.
It was an eventful three days, Lu Su wanted to go out for a walk, so he went to the city center for a meal, and the post-war C City was still the old pattern, but everywhere was new.
As a result, after eating this meal, a man in a suit suddenly sat opposite Lu Su, and he was surprised to find that it was a fat man, and he had matured a lot after not seeing the fat man for a few years.
"It's you!" Lu Su was very surprised, "You're here for dinner?" ”
"I'm here to see you for dinner!" He laughed, "I'm the owner of this shop, not only this one, but the restaurant industry on this street is mine." ”
"Damn, you're out of luck."
The rapid comeback after the war probably depends on the funds and connections he has accumulated before, and speaking of which, he has not been in contact with the fat man for five years.
"Lu Su, you are still the same, not old at all! I envy you for being so young and 'spring' forever. ”
"I'll be old in the future."
"By the way, see someone."
Fatso...... No, the fat boss said a few words to the waiter, and soon another fat man came, he wore an apron and a white 'colored' chef's hat, and when he saw Lu Su, he screamed "ah", and pounced over and said, "Engong!" ”
"Uncle Blame?"
After a long absence, the strange uncle wiped the corners of his eyes excitedly, and the fat man said: "After defeating, we will return to City C, and we will be in ruins!" After working hard for the past few years, now it's more beautiful than before, Lu Su, what about you now. ”
"A grass people!"
The fat man took out a JB-thick tomato, lit it, and said with emotion: "Now I am standing at the apex of the catering industry in C City, and your strange uncle is now a special chef, known as the little master of C City, recalling the past, I am full of emotion, if it wasn't for your first financial and technical support, I would never be here today!" So, think about what to do with me? I'll give you five stores, and you will be the boss! ”
"Ha, you're so polite."
"Lu Su, with your intelligence, we will definitely climb to a higher place."
"Let's 'mix' the business world together?"
"Yes, 'mixed' the business world!" Mix it up with a wind and water, and 'mix' it with a raptor in the sky! ”
Such a future is really unimaginable, Lu Su said: "This, I am not very interested, but I will think about it." ”
"Give you three days!" The fat man pointed at him with his finger holding a cigar, and he was already a big boss, and he really had an extraordinary bearing, "You just need to say 'yes', and you are the owner of five stores!" ”
“OK!”
When I went back that day, the sunset was still hanging in the sky, and it would be completely dark at eight o'clock in the evening in summer.
Walking alone by the lake, suddenly a black 'colored' long plus Cadillac stopped beside him, the window rolled down, Lu Su saw a beauty he had never seen before, looking at her with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
Although this cold 'glamorous' face was unfamiliar, it seemed to have been seen somewhere.
"Remember me?"
The voice is Xia Hotaru's.
"You're Xia ......"
"Shhhh Get in. "She pushed the car door.
The air conditioner in the car was cool and swishing, Xia Yingying should obviously look like a little Lori, why is she a fifteen-year-old young 'girl' now. That kind of cold and 'glamorous' demeanor has been 'revealed', and she is so beautiful that she is suffocating, killing any 'woman' he has ever seen, even Jinduan.
Lu Su was a little stunned, and suddenly there was a Xia Yingying beside him, and the two young 'women' hugged him left and right: "I haven't seen you for five years." ”
'What the hell is wrong with you?' Have you eaten too much vegetarian? ”
"I met the guide during the decisive battle......"
"Guide?"
"Well, of course I didn't summon it. At that time, I said to him, "Relieve my backlash state, and to be honest, I can't stand it anymore by pretending to be a little 'girl' child, but that 'bastard' actually ignores me...... Later, I found out that he had actually helped me get rid of it, you see, I'm growing up, do you like the way I am? ”
"Girl, you have your own respect!" In fact, Lu Su's heart was beating wildly.
Xia Yingying, who was on the right, held up his chin with her fingers and asked with a wicked smile: "What about your brocade, why is it alone?" Do you need someone to accompany me? ”
"You're sick of an occupational disease."
Xia Yingying suddenly smelled that there was no demonic energy on him, her eyes changed greatly, and even the demonic skills were lifted, and she left from him: "How did you become a human being!" ”
"There's a deep reason for that."
"Cut!" She said contemptuously, "What do you think I've been courting you for, it's not because you're strong enough to protect me, since you're already a human, get out of the car." Driver, park! ”
It's so ruthless, this 'female' person.
Lu Su was almost kicked out of the car, but the car didn't drive away, as if she regretted it a little, Xia Yingying rolled down the window again: "Forget it, you come up." ”
"What the hell do you want from me?"
"Come up, come up."
As a result, she got into the car again, and she still clinged to Lu Su's body, which made his heart beat wildly. Xia Yingying said: "I have been acting in front of others, you see, my current money is also cheated by acting." It's a good thing to have a man who doesn't have to act for him, you're a good man, and you're my type. ”
"Thanks for the compliment."
"Go to my house."
"What are you doing, I'm telling you a show."
"Idiot, what do you say!"
Xia Yingying's new home is magnificent, and she has already begun to 'show' the wonderful demeanor of the royal sister, so Lu Su did not refuse the joy of this night, and she was with two exactly the same 'women'
, this feels new and interesting, bold and lively, as a 'flower' background, her skills are really very powerful.
Both of them relaxed.
"Look, I still got you." After the event, she leaned on Lu Su's body and said, "As long as I recover this body, no man can resist it, not to mention that I have completely changed back to my previous appearance now." ”
"Do you want to find a long-term fire bun friend?"
"I want you, as my boyfriend."
"What about the conditions?"
"Don't care about the dealings between me and other men, some demons use fighting to survive, I use posture 'color' to survive, but don't worry, the body of the deity belongs to you, and I entertain others with the other body."
"You're really hospitable, and you've made friends."
"Thanks for the compliment, think about it......"
"Give me three days."
"Good! I'm sure you'll come! ”
Another three days! But after all, the person he really likes is not a scheming 'woman' like Xia Yingying, although he admits that she is shockingly beautiful and her skills are outstanding.
When he went back, Lu Su was thinking about getting married, although he was still twenty-three years old, his real age was close to thirty years old.
He can't live like this, one day he will need a companion, maybe he doesn't like it, it's just a partner who doesn't hate it, and he loses his temper, a person who can take good care of Lu Jin.
And then that's how it goes.
A candidate suddenly came to mind, and when he returned, he tried to find Shishiwa Rollaki, whose name was so special, that he immediately found her personal homepage.
As a result, there he saw a recent photograph of Kashiwa Makaki, smiling with a five-year-old child with a happy expression on her face.
is already married and has children, Lu Su thought about it, this kind of behavior is indeed too inappropriate, so he gave up.
But he forgot to clear the browsing traces, and an hour later, Juan Juan contacted him, and she sent a smile: "How are you doing?" ”
I had to reply: "Okay, what about you." ”
"It's okay, I'm sent in a research institute and can support myself."
"You're married?"
"Nope!"
"Hey, that kid ......"
"Guess who!"
Lu Su suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and went to look through those photos, this child's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to a person, himself! He suddenly remembered that five years ago, when he ate secretly, Juan Juan said that the safe period was okay, so he didn't use protective measures, and he still remembered that at that time, Juan Juan mentioned "The Luck of a Strange 'Woman'", in which the 'woman' gave birth to a child for the man she loved, and she was planning to do so at that time.
I actually became a father with one shot! It turns out that Lu Jin also has an older brother!
"What's his name?"
"Bai Cangcang, but I like to call him Xiao Lusu." She sent another smile.
After a pause for a long time, Lu Su only typed one line of words: "You are too polite!" ”
"Haha!"
The first time Lu Su encountered this kind of thing, he really didn't know what to say, so he said: "Don't mind, just treat it as a gift from you, if you have a child, life will not be so gloomy." I'm not actually going to tell you. ”
"I understand." Now that he has Lu Jin, he is not in such a mood.
"You're all right."
"Something happened."
"Can you say that?"
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Su said, "Yes." ”
A string of numbers was typed out in the roll, which was her mobile phone number. Lu Su called her, at first he slurred, and then he told all the things that happened to them in one breath, and after the catharsis, his mood seemed to be much happier, and he said "Thank you!" ”
"That ......" on the phone, Juan Juan hesitated and said, "It's not that I'm taking advantage of people's danger, I want to ask you, after she leaves, will you consider getting married?" ”
"Yes."
"I'm single, if you don't dislike me......"
"I never disliked you from the beginning, but I confess that I didn't really like you."
"I understand."
"But we're together, so we should get along." Lu Su paused: "Let me think about it, give me three days." ”
"Good!" She happily agreed, and her voice was like that of a young girl.
He is already a prospective uncle who urgently needs to find a companion, thinking about it, he can't help but laugh self-deprecatingly, he wants to see his son very much, maybe it is very likely that he will go to see Kashiwamaki.
Sitting alone in the dark, Lu Su's mind was empty, and after three days, life would enter a fork in the road, into a completely different future.
But, apart from these, he had another choice, one that he ignored from the beginning.
Go find Jinduan!!
Leave everything behind, even the impossibilities that lie between them, start from scratch, become a demon, reach the top, and then go to that world to find her!
He was close to the end, he knew that there were infinite possibilities in this world, and this idea was not false!
This thought made him 'excited', Lu Su stretched out a hand, clenching the darkness in front of him, as if he wanted to control his own destiny, everything, did not end here!
Between him and Jin Xuan, it's not over yet!
