Chapter 120: Depression

"Don't! Stone! Mrs. Li rushed forward and hugged Shishi's hands distressedly, "Shi, don't hurt yourself, mother, please!" ”

"Why? Why can't I be accommodated in the palace? Shi looked at Mrs. Li stunned.

Mrs. Li was short of breath and her lips were pale, as if she had consumed all her physical strength.

The queen didn't say...... This is...... Matters in the palace. ”

"But it's my business, too!" Stone gritted its teeth, and heart-rending hatred subdued him like a devil's claws.

He hates Zhu Yuanzhang, hates?? I hate my birth, and I hate the occurrence of all these ridiculous and unreasonable things.

"Stone, calm down." Mrs. Li gently stroked the back of the stone.

“?? What about the clan? In the palace? "The stone wants to know what his own mother looks like, like deeply impressing Zhu Yuanzhang's ugly face in his mind, he also wants to put ?? It's engraved in my mind.

Maybe he'd seen her in the palace, maybe he'd smiled at her silly, maybe he'd said hello to her.

"Dead." Mrs. Li said lightly.

Stone's eyes widened: "How did you die?" ”

"I heard it was a cliff jump. I don't know if the rumors in the palace are true or not. ”

"Cliff jumping? Why did she jump off a cliff? Didn't she dump my big burden just to live better? Why cliff jumping? The stone roared wildly.

"Stones! I knew you were so useless and couldn't bear the facts, I shouldn't have told you the truth at all! Mrs. Li turned her face sideways and said coldly. She never left the stone for a moment.

The sun rose higher and higher, and the wind did not recede in the slightest. It arrogantly rushed into the Buddha hall, rolled up the ashes from the incense burner, sprinkled it on the gold body of the Buddha statue, patted its buttocks, and slipped away.

Mrs. Li turned a blind eye to her most cherished Buddha statue, and her eyes were only on the stone's every move.

Silence flowed freely in the sun, with overwhelming pain and desperate love.

"Mother, I know it's wrong!" After a long time, the stone opened.

The hatred in his heart did not diminish by half a point, and the furious anger was still burning.

But he knew his mother was right. He has to live with the facts, he has to mature.

Mrs. Li looked at the stone with pity: "Stone, the reason why my mother told you the truth is that I think you need to hone in order to mature and become a real man." Buddhists often say that only when you get rid of the hatred in your heart can you be good. ”

"Since man was born into this world, his anger has caught you like a net from heaven and earth. If you are at the mercy of anger, then you will become a wicked person. ”

"If I can get rid of a wicked person like Zhu Yuanzhang, I would rather be a wicked person." The cold words of the stone pierced Madame Lee's chest like an awl.

"No!" Mrs. Li clutched the stone's hand tightly, for fear of losing it, "One day you won't think so." Besides, you can't deal with him! No one can get rid of him! ”

"How do you know if you don't give it a try?"

Mrs. Lee's arms hung helplessly, and she shook her head as she stepped back until her back was against the wall.

At this moment, the coldness of the stone was even more terrifying than the brutality just now, and a determination to lay down his life was self-evident.

"Mother, I'm sorry Queen Ma...... She didn't forget to protect you before she died...... She gave me this edict, so that I can show it to the emperor when your life is threatened by the emperor......" Mrs. Li couldn't cry.

"I don't want any protection!" Stone shook his head, looking at the dust that broke through the panes.

He resembles them, small but never falls.

"Stone, think about it. Time will dilute everything. We...... Let's eat first. ”

Mrs. Li wiped away her tears and walked out of the Buddhist hall.

Everything in the Li Mansion is different from yesterday.

Stone felt that everyone was very polite to him, as if he were a guest from afar.

Hua Huacao didn't want to confide in him anymore, because his heart could only hold darkness.

Even the sunlight shining into the courtyard made him dizzy.

Whenever he passed by the Buddhist hall, he trembled all over, and Zhu Yuanzhang's vicious gaze shot out of it, and the earth-shattering cry of a baby came out.

This stone, where he had lived in the Li Mansion for twenty years, now brought him strangeness and panic.

The night was scarier than ever.

Darkness and silence can fuel the devil's ferocity.

All kinds of images are like beasts of prey, and he is powerless.

He had a splitting headache, and life was worse than death.

Finally an idea came to the fore in the midst of the pain, and he was going to get himself drunk.

The sharp nerves were like thousands of sharp knives that pierced his body, but wine could numb them and make them retract their sharp tentacles.

Stone brought a jar of wine from the cellar and poured it into his stomach.

The Bee Eagle rests one of its claws on the jar.

"Bee Hawk, don't stop me, I'll be happy when I drink it!" The stone looked pleadingly at the bee eagle.

"Goo! Cuckoo! The bee hawk was hovering around the house with his wings fluttering, and he didn't know whether to stop his friend or not.

What can be done to be better for his friends? Would the drinks have eased his friend's pain?

Before the Bee Eagle could come up with an answer, the stone fell to the ground drunk, and the blade that pierced him was gradually sucked away by a huge magnet.

His man was soon drawn up by this magnet as well, floating in mid-air, higher and darker, as if he had been swept into a black hole with no end in sight, and the wind was whizzing in his ears.

I don't know how many hours I fell asleep, but when Shi woke up, Mrs. Li was sitting on the edge of his bed, wiping his face with a warm towel.

"Mother!" The stone called out and rubbed his hazy eyes.

"Awake?" Mrs. Li said gently, "Are you hungry?" Served you porridge and snacks. Come, get up and have some food. ”

Stone habitually sat up, as he had done for countless mornings. He slept in, and Mrs. Li waited by his bedside for him to wake up.

For a moment he had forgotten what had happened in the past few days.

When his feet on the edge of the bed touched the ground, his moments of peace fell from the sky and shattered to pieces.

The brutal image covered his eyes like darkness, and he sat on the edge of the bed.

"Stone, don't think about it. The affairs of the previous generation have nothing to do with you, you can't control it, you can't change it, and don't embarrass yourself. ”

"Mother, I don't have an appetite." The stone was weak and could not lift his eyelids.

Mrs. Li touched the head of the stone and whispered, "Stone, my mother understands your mind." It took a long time for my mother to accept this reality, let alone you? ”

"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."

"You must promise your mother that these days are your saddest and most impulsive time, don't think about revenge. If you can't stay at home, you can go outside with your friends, okay? ”

"Hmm." Stone snuggled his head into Mrs. Lee's arms.

A few new wrinkles were added to Mrs. Lee's forehead and the corners of her eyes.

Although the stone is not her biological child, the couple has always loved and cared for the stone more than their biological parents.

When Stone learned of his origins, their greatest fear was not that Stone would leave them, but that he would suffer pain and blows.

"Stone, your father doesn't have to go to court now, he is finally idle. He wants to see the great rivers and mountains, are you willing to accompany him? ”

"Don't worry, mother. Don't worry about me anymore, you've raised me for twenty years, and I haven't repaid you yet, I won't do anything stupid. ”

"Well, good son."

A few days ago, the rift between them was created because of family affection.

At this moment, this crack is also stitched up because of family affection.

Stone, accompanied by a bee eagle, finally walked out of the house.

The streets are still as busy as usual. In the midst of a group of strangers who passed him, Stone felt much more at ease.

No one knows his story, and he doesn't know theirs. That way, they won't see each other's pain.

A roe deer in a cage caught the attention of the stone.

It was about the size of an eight- or nine-year-old child, with a slender and graceful neck and big dark eyes, looking out into the distance from the railing of the cage.

It seems to be looking for his parents or siblings, and is worried about his situation, not because he is in a cage, but because he is alone.

The roe deer vendor was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with red chilblains on his cheeks and a cotton jacket with holes everywhere.

"Childe, do you like this roe deer? If you like it, buy it, it's also pitiful, it's a cold day! ”

"It's pitiful, and you're still catching it?" The stone glared at the boy, but when he saw his ragged clothes and knew that he must have been forced to make a living, he looked down at the roe deer again.

"Childe, you don't know, it's not that I want to catch it, it's that it planted itself in the snow. You said that if I didn't take it to this bazaar and find a kind person, it would starve or freeze to death! ”

"What about its parents?" The roe deer's big ears stood up.

"It must have come out to forage for food, and it was separated from its parents! How can I find my parents? ”

The stone froze suddenly.

The clear pupils of the roe deer reflected the melancholy face of the stone. How similar the expression of this face is to the expression of a roe deer.

They are all fatherless and motherless children, and they are alone in the world, not knowing how to continue to live.

"Why can't I find its parents?" The stone roared, "Its parents did not abandon it!" ”

The roe deer cocked its short tail, and the white hair under the tail exploded like a chrysanthemum.

It jumped up and down in the cage excitedly, screaming.

"See? It also agrees with me, how could the parents who gave birth to it abandon it? ”

"Childe, you buy it and take it to its parents, we poor families can't do this kind of idle work! If its parents are beaten by hunters or ......"

"Shut up! I bought it! Shi took out a gold ingot from his arms, "Here you go, send the roe deer to the Li Mansion!" ”

The bee hawk cooed jealously.

The roe deer fell to the ground gratefully, with his head bowed, and pressed his horns against the railing.

The stone gently stroked its horns, and said secretly in his heart: "We are sick and alone." My parents don't want me, but your parents must still want you, and I want to find your parents for you! ”
