2 Human Encounters Chapter 217 Celebration

It is said that the world is gone, and everyone is still turning, Kate's death is regrettable, but this regret was quickly diluted by another thing.

Thanksgiving Day is a national carnival day set by the kingdom of Hestifu in order to thank the gods for their gifts, on this day, whether it is the government, the church, or the ordinary people without status, they will put down their work and join in the joy of the carnival, even in the small towns on the border of the country.

To celebrate the annual Thanksgiving Day, the townspeople decorate their streets early in the morning and hold a celebration in the town.

At Jack's invitation, Chenming also came to this lively town, at this time there were many people on the streets of the town, and the truck was not convenient to drive, so after parking it on the side of the road at the edge of the town, the three of them got out of the car.

"That's a lot of people. ”

Looking at the people reveling on the street, Chen Ming frowned, he liked to watch the happiness of people's lives from afar, but he didn't like to participate in this noisy happiness.

Shaqiluo's face was flat, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with her, and all she cared about was the young man who held her hand tightly.

"It's been a hard year, and it's their carnival. ”

Jack's mood is much better than two days ago, affected by the lively atmosphere of the town, and the sadness left by Kate is also quietly forgotten.

Chen Ming also smiled slightly, took Saqira's hand, and stepped into the range of the street, and Jack followed behind the two.

Blooming flowers, colorful ribbons, as if everything in bright colors can be used as decorations for the town, turning it into a flowery girl, releasing fiery kindness.

Walking through the jubilant crowd, Chen Ming looked at the excited young man in front of him speechlessly, and he suddenly regretted coming here.

But Jack didn't notice it, he turned around and smiled happily, "Sir, how is it? I'm right? It's really lively here!"

"It's very lively......

Although he was speechless in his heart, but following the local customs, Chen Ming also smiled slightly.

Here, he doesn't feel people's desires, which makes him very comfortable.

Although desire can make demons stronger, they are also stacked on demons like boulders, and although Tatsunaru is not a demon, his capture of desire is outstanding even in hell.

He dragged Shakiro and followed Jack for a long time, and the streets became more and more crowded until they were surrounded by water.

Chen Ming clenched Shaqiluo's hand tightly and said, "Hold on, don't lose it!"

"If you lose it, you'll find me. ”

Having said this, Shaqiluo's little hand grasped more and more tightly.

They followed Jack to the center of the town, where they stopped, and although it was daytime, there were still fireworks blooming here.

In the center of the town is a huge grandstand with circus performances.

The clown skillfully rode a single-wheeled bicycle, casually throwing the ball in his hand into a ring, and the blazing fire ring next to it, the animal trainer commanded the ferocious lion to jump through the middle.

The funny, dazzling performance seems very boring to Chenming, but in the eyes of the residents of the town, they like it very much.

They laughed, and he laughed, and he laughed, and she laughed.

When the performance reached its climax, everyone applauded in the audience, and the simple people, perhaps at this moment, really achieved no desire and no desire.

"It's not strange for a person to have no desires, and it's strange but acceptable for a city to have no desires, but in such a country, I can't find a reason for them to have desires. ”

Chen Ming's face was calm, but his heart was not calm, looking at a city and a country, although it can't be generalized, but this is the border, people can still live and work in peace and contentment, in that more vast land, where will people be?

"The true meaning of the divine is to have no desires and no desires, not to pray meaninglessly to the gods. ”

Looking at the stage and listening to the audience, Chen Ming smiled, "I suddenly like this country." ”

Jack next to him was confused, but he still smiled, "Who says it's not?"

......

The theme of the celebration is never during the day, but at night the streets are more lively, many vendors are cooking food on the streets, the colorful lights are more brilliant than the starry sky in the sky, and the fireworks in the distance wash away all sorrow and bring happiness to the town.

And all this has nothing to do with Jack and Chenming, who returned to the ranch early.

"With Mr. Jack's temperament, it doesn't look like he's going to leave early. ”

Outside the wooden house, under the starry sky, Chen Ming and Jack sat by the campfire, each holding a glass of warm milk in their hands, Chen Ming asked, "Why did you come back so early today?"

"I'm not a resident of this town, and I can't take away their happiness. ”

With a smile on his face, the young man said, "In return, the pleasures brought to me during the day are enough, how can I be greedy for more?"

Chen Ming said, "I don't think the residents care about this, happiness is mutual, they convey happiness to you at the same time, they will also reap happiness from you, maybe there will be more?"

"It can't be counted like that. ”

Jack shook his head, took a sip of milk in his cup, spat out a white breath, and said, "Not the residents here always have to leave, just like Mr. Chenming, the more good memories left to them, the more loneliness there will be when they are separated, one day, I will also leave here and return to the place where I should stay, if I leave too many memories now, I may be reluctant to give up when the time comes, maybe it will be me, so to speak, I am quite selfish." ”

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"

Chen Ming also learned from him, drank a sip of hot milk, and spat out white breath, "Anyway, my purpose is to live in the moment, have fun in time, and talk about leaving when I leave." ”

"Haha. ”

Jack laughed and patted Chenming on the shoulder, "I like your character very much." ”

"I don't need you to like it. ”

Chen Ming laughed evilly and said, "I have a lover, where do I need a man to like it?"

"Hi...... Why are you like this?"

Jack pouted, "I like a lot of people too, okay?"

"A lot of sheep like it, right?"

"I don't want you to talk like that!"

......

It wasn't until the bonfire went out and both of them looked a little sleepy that Tatsumei got up to say goodbye.

Following the path surrounded by the grassland back to the residence, Chen Ming saw the girl sitting in front of the house looking at the starry sky, and stepped forward with some confusion and asked, "Why don't you go to sleep, you're still here?"

"You seem to like that Jack very much?"

Shaqiluo answered the question, looking at Chen Ming with a pair of eyes, but Chen Ming couldn't figure it out, he said, "Mr. Jack is very good, I have no reason not to like it, and I will leave tomorrow, we and him, there should be no more intersections." ”

Shaqiro still looked at him, and for a while, she didn't show any dissatisfaction, and turned back into the house, "You're not here, I can't sleep." ”

"What the hell does that mean?"

Confused by the girl's confused attitude, Chen Ming shook his head helplessly, "Owen too, why don't you say it thoroughly?"

......

The night was very long and short, and the dawn of the morning was accompanied by a doorbell, waking up Chen Ming and Shaqiluo, needless to say, everyone knew that this incomprehensible knocker was undoubtedly Jack.

"Mr. Jack, can you not knock on the door so early every time?"

At the door, Chen Ming, whose hair was messy, looked at Jack with a refreshing face speechlessly, and thought to himself, "Emotional intelligence is a big problem......

"Isn't there a saying that the plan of the day lies in the morning?"

Jack smiled shyly and said, "Besides, today you are going to Jones Province to take a ride to the royal capital, the road is far away, how can you not be early?"

"And I have to thank you?"

Pouting, Chen Ming said, "Don't you mind if we have breakfast before we leave?"

"Of course not. ”

Jack shook his head, then said with some embarrassment, "Just my stomach...... Hey hey ......"

"This guy is definitely here to eat!"

Looking at the harmless smile on his face, Chen Ming smiled coldly and said, "Then come in." ”

So, at this time, there was a strange scene in the living room.

Shakiro sat on the sofa as usual, but next to her, there was an extra young man.

"Uh...... Miss Sakiro ......"

Looking at the "distant" distance that the girl deliberately pulled away, Jack no longer had eyesight, and he could see that he was hated by her, and with a dry laugh, he said, "You ......"

"I don't like you. ”

Unlike Jack, Shakira's words were more straightforward, "But Chenming likes it, I can't help it." ”

"Ahem......"

If he was hit hard, the young man coughed lightly in embarrassment, "Can you tell me why?"

"No why, I just hate you. ”

Looking at the unturned TV motionlessly, the porcelain doll-like girl seemed a little annoyed, "Don't talk to me anymore." ”

"Uh......"

Jack was speechless for a while, for the first time in his life, he had been given a card in such a simple and shocking way, and he was not a good person, and in desperation, he could only close his mouth and sit there like Shaqiluo.

"It's time to eat. ”

In the kitchen, Chen Ming's fluttering words made Jack, who was sitting on pins and needles, like grasping a life-saving straw, immediately got up and slipped away, and sat down at the dining table.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Ming was a little puzzled, first removed the chair for Shaqiluo, who came over slowly, and waited for her to sit down before he sat down beside her.

"She's bullying me!" she's ......."

At this time, Jack looked like a resentful woman who had just been abandoned, and repeated what had just happened in great detail, and after speaking, he looked at Chen Ming expectantly, as if waiting for him to teach his lover a lesson.

However, what he was expecting did not happen, Chen Ming just raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said flatly, "Normal, her ability to talk to you is already the greatest gift to you." ”

"I ......"

At this moment, Jack was completely angry and had nowhere to vent, and he wanted to cry without tears and was about to speak, but was glared back by Chenming, "Eat your meal!"

"You're all bullying me!"

The young man shouted loudly, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he skillfully put the bacon on the plate into his mouth with a knife and fork, and chewed it gently, "Well, it's so fragrant!"

After breakfast, because of Jack, Chen Ming put some clothes and other daily necessities in the magic ring into his suitcase, packed them casually, and the three of them went out.

After locking the door, walking out of the small courtyard, Chen Ming looked back at the house that didn't live for long, but there was a trace of reluctance, maybe it's really like Jack said, the more memories accumulate, the more reluctance to leave, right?

"Hey, let's go!"

Behind him, Jack, who had already started the truck, shouted, "It's too late to go!"

"It's time to go. ”

Chen Ming smiled slightly, pulled Shaqiluo into the truck, and with a low sound, they ran towards the unknown city.

Because it is a suburb, the vehicles on the road can be described as scarce, and Jack's speed is relatively fast.

The beautiful scenery of the wilderness, which retreated like a horse watching flowers, made Chen Ming stunned.

It was as if she hadn't slept all night, lying quietly in his arms to make up for sleep.

"To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to let you go. ”

While driving, Jack said, "But I also know that everyone has their own things, and I just hope that Mr. Tatsunaru will remember at some point that there is a friend like me." ”

"Don't make it as good as life and death?"

Chen Ming was helpless, but smiled warmly, "If there is fate, we will meet again one day, won't this endless grassland also let us meet?"

"Hmm...... Quite right. ”

Jack thought for a moment, then smiled, "Perhaps, in the near future, we can meet again in the royal capital?"

"If we meet again in the royal capital, maybe we won't be as open-minded as we are now, will we?"

Although he hoped that Owen and Shaqiluo's statement was wrong, Chen Ming still believed that Shaqiluo would not be wrong, and he was seeking verification and testing this sentence.

However, Jack didn't have any emotional fluctuations, still plain with reluctance, "It may or may not be, a little concealment will not affect our friendship, just like you didn't ask me, didn't I ask you?"

"Yes, have fun in time, and worry about the future. ”

Chen Ming nodded and smiled, "Later, I'll talk about it later, I just know that until we meet next time, we will always be friends." ”

"Nice to meet you. ”

"Me too. ”

......

The road to Jones Province was, as Jack had said, extremely far, and even at his speed, it took him nearly five hours to see the outline of the city.

Outside the city, which is dominated by white, there are many vehicles passing through the road, showing the modern atmosphere of the city.

Driving along the highway into the city, there are many high-rise buildings, and the faint sound of horns does not add noise to the city, but adds a lot of vitality.

"Here we are, this is Jones Province. ”

Pulling the truck into a huge parking lot, Jack said, "If I'm in a hurry, can I take you to the station first and then run errands?"

"If you can hitchhike, it's already a hassle for you. ”

Chen Ming smiled and said, "Why are you embarrassed to let you send it again? ”

"What's the politeness with me?"

Jack pursed his lips and said, "Okay, then I won't give you away." ”

When the two got out of the car, Jack didn't stop and drove away in the other direction.

"I have a feeling that we will meet again soon. ”

Chenming muttered in a low voice, he looked down at the girl who was also looking up at him, and smiled, "Clever Shakira, you are right. ”

"It's not right or wrong. ”

Shakiro shook her head and said, "I just don't want you to have a hard time making a decision in the end. ”

There is a saying that he is right, the more good things you leave behind, the more reluctant you are to part ways. ”

Throwing the so-called luggage into the magic ring, Tatsumei pulled Shakira and walked towards the outside of the parking lot.

Jones's province is huge, but it's not that difficult to get to just one location.

In front of the train station, which was full of pedestrians, a yellow and green taxi stopped, and a man and a woman got out.

"There we are. ”

Chen Ming smiled slightly, looking at the huge white building, he was a little dazed, "It's been a long time since I've taken a train to a distant place, and it's good to experience it once in a while." ”

"You seem to like this ordinary life very much. ”

Shaqiluo was a little puzzled, she had been looking down on all beings since she was born, and what she lacked was not only affection, but also curiosity about those new things, everything in her eyes was plain, as if standing there, all out of place with the world.

"After standing on a high place and watching for a long time, it is inevitable that it will be a little boring, and once in a while, I will come down and take a look. ”

Chen Ming touched her little head and said, "Although all beings are small, they may not be wonderful, when everything is over, I will take you to see what you have never seen in the past, the life you once despised, and the real life looks like." ”

"As I said, where you are, I will be there. ”

Shakiro stretched out her little hand, pulled the young man's sleeve, and walked with him into the train station.

Fake identities, forged documents, the usual tricks of heaven and hell on earth, everything seems so unreasonable, but people can't find weirdness.

After a long and short process, they finally stepped on the train to the royal capital and began their first journey together.
