On the nameless barren mountain, Liu Qiang looked up at the night sky and looked at the starry sky, his heart was full of emotion and helplessness.

It's only been a few days, and the friend I've been waiting for for two years has finally arrived; the home that was originally an aunt depended on each other is gone with the death of my aunt; I was originally a prisoner, but now I have become the core of the team, as long as something happens, everyone will let themselves call the shots and find a way.

'Oh my God, are you so unfair?'

Deep down, he was questioning God's injustice, but Liu Qiang felt that it was fair.

After losing his aunt, he was originally disheartened and felt that life no longer had any meaning, but he met Shi Ying, a disciple of the Xianmen who was willing to speak for himself from the perspective of justice and help him get out of the shadows.

Liu Qiang wondered, if he hadn't met Shi Ying, what would he be like now?

"What do you think?"

A voice woke up Liu Qiang, and he didn't look back to know that it was Shi Ying.

Shaking his head, Liu Qiang still stared at the twinkling stars in the sky and said, "I can't sleep, don't you have anyone?"

Walking to Liu Qiang's side, finding a clean place to sit down, Shi Ying followed Liu Qiang's gaze and looked at the stars in the sky, and then replied: "It just so happens that I can't sleep either, we can have a good chat." ”

Hearing a good chat, Liu Qiang lost his mind.

In his past and present lives, apart from his aunt, what else do he have? He has nothing, the only friend he has, in fact, only three days of friendship, and then for almost two years, his only friend Liu Zhen has not appeared, until finally when he is the saddest and most difficult, he is willing to help himself desperately.

Suddenly, Liu Qiang felt that in his past life and this life, no one sat together to chat well, and for Liu Qiang, it suddenly felt so luxurious.

"Yes, but I want to thank you in advance, if it weren't for you, I would be dead by now. ”

He had died once in his previous life, and Liu Qiang had long put life and death aside, but Shi Ying was willing to stand up and speak up when he was in difficulty, and he was willing to help him get out of the shadow of death, Liu Qiang was really grateful.

Compared with the sharp, competitive, and self-esteem character of the previous life, in this life, Liu Qiang knows how to cherish, be grateful, forbear, and low-key.

Slowly, I developed a casual personality, and I didn't take anything to heart, even if I took it to heart, I wouldn't show it.

Liu Qiang, who seems to be casual, is so arrogant in his heart, those hatreds are buried in his heart by him, and he doesn't show it, he has been talking and laughing in front of everyone, and he is acting like a mature and stable adult.

But Shi Ying knows very well that Liu Qiang is actually very fragile, more afraid of loneliness, and is not as strong as he appears.

It's just that Liu Qiang's fragile side is rarely shown in front of outsiders, according to Shi Ying's understanding, once Liu Qiang shows his vulnerability in front of someone, then this person is either a relative recognized by Liu Qiang in his heart, or a friend who is willing to sacrifice his life to make friends.

Perhaps driven by curiosity, or perhaps by that ignorant impulse, Shi Ying very much wants to be the person in Liu Qiang's mind who can make him let go of everything.

Because judging from what I have learned, Liu Qiang's quality is absolutely nothing to say, and the strength, qualifications and potential shown are also worthy of Shi Ying's attention.

"It's all over, aren't you alive and well?"

After speaking, Shi Ying immediately spoke: "I'm curious, why did you choose a lonely path? With your person, you can make a lot of friends?"

Knowing that Liu Qiang was in Liu's house and was targeted by Liu Xuan, Shi Ying couldn't help but ask like this, because if she wanted to pry open Liu Qiang's heart, the first thing she had to do was to become Liu Qiang's friend.

Smiling, Liu Qiang smiled bitterly: "Orphans and widows, being targeted everywhere, where is anyone willing to be friends with me? Do you know? For decades, my only friend was Liu Zhen, but I almost killed him..."

It may be that the psychology has somewhat agreed with Shi Ying, or it may be that he has been depressed for a long time, and he is finally able to find someone to talk to, and he is unwilling to let go of this great opportunity to relieve his pressure, Liu Qiang can say that he has said a lot of things in his heart to Shi Ying.

After speaking, Liu Qiang turned to look at Shi Ying, who was in meditation, and asked calmly: "You say, is it wrong to want to live peacefully and spend your life?

The only relative, the aunt who raised him, died, and for Liu Qiang, it was the destruction of the family.

Shi Ying herself doesn't know why, there are some truths that she doesn't understand, but she can clearly tell Liu Qiang.

However, born in a Xianmen family, Shi Ying understands the cruelty of this society better, so she explained to Liu Qiang: "If you want to live a peaceful life, you also need to have the capital to live a peaceful life, you are not strong enough, in this world, you don't deserve to have the life you want." ”

"In other words, if you are strong enough for people not to provoke you, will your aunt still die? Will you still be constantly targeted? It is your low-key and forbearance that makes people feel that you are incapable, incapable, and can be bullied casually, in this world, if a person wants to have the life he wants, he must either be strong enough in himself, or show enough potential to make people have to pay attention to you. ”

Saying his opinions sentence by sentence, he noticed that the sharp spirit on Liu Qiang's body was even more obvious, I don't know why, Shi Ying felt relieved from the bottom of her heart.

'If I'm strong enough, if I'm good enough, my aunt won't die, we won't be targeted, and the peaceful life I want will be there...'

asked himself a lot in his heart, and Liu Qiang realized how ridiculous his previous self was and how naïve those thoughts were.

The environment of the Tianxuan Continent is cruel, if you want to have a truly peaceful life, you must have a certain strength, otherwise the knowledge of a peaceful life is an empty talk, there is no absolute strength to guard, it is not worthy of it, and it is impossible to have a peaceful life.

At this moment, Liu Qiang regretted it, God gave him a chance to start over, but he didn't cherish it, if ten years ago, he was still like in his previous life, competitive, sharp, and good enough, his aunt would not die, and he could have the life he wanted.

But now it's too late.

Looking at Shi Ying again, Liu Qiang asked curiously, "Can you tell me, why do you spare no effort to help me like this?"

In fact, Liu Qiang himself also felt something, but for Liu Qiang, who had never experienced that kind of thing, everything was so ignorant, in front of Shi Ying, Liu Qiang was also willing to let go of his heart and say something.

Her cheeks were flushed, Shi Ying lowered her head, and said with embarrassment: "I don't know, maybe I'm interested in you!"

When the words were spoken, Shi Ying herself was embarrassed, leaving Liu Qiang, who was still thinking about what it meant to be interested, and turned around and walked towards the cave where they were temporarily sheltering.

Looking at the back of Shi Ying leaving, Liu Qiang's heart was filled with ripples.
