"You're just like that guy."

Lu Yu was a little speechless, Ming Shiyin also used such "profound" words to perfunctory himself before, but he didn't expect Ming Chongyan to be the same.

He just wanted to know the answer.

"Because, behind the answer, is exactly what you're looking for, and if I told you in advance, what's the point of what you're looking for?"

Ming Chongyan laughed softly, and at the same time bowed slightly, staring at the endless darkness around him, and his deep eyes seemed to contain infinite melancholy.

"Lu Yu, in fact, both me and Ming Shiyin are very envious of you."

Looking back suddenly, Ming Chongyan's eyebrows lowered and his eyes became a little blurred.

"Envy me? Why? ”

The sudden words made Lu Yu a little unresponsive.

"Want to know?"

There was an elusive smile on his face, Ming Chongyan turned his face sideways, and some vague figures seemed to be about to disappear in the abyss.

That was a long, long time ago, and I can't remember exactly how long it was.

Perhaps, the concept of time has already disappeared with the wind with the sand and gravel in the desert in the clouds, right?

However, the blood of the past, the protection in my heart, and the shadow of the old man are like the sound of the blue waves, constantly echoing in my mind, and it is difficult to fade for a long time

In the middle of the King Continent, the rich plains spread, giving birth to the most powerful and prosperous country "Datang". On its border, there stands the Great Wall, which was left over from a long time ago.

For thousands of years, it has stood quietly in the vast scorching desert on one side, and the fertile green land and the growing prosperity of the land on the other.

The two sides were originally safe and sound, and the Silk Road brought economic and civilizational prosperity.

However, the rulers of some of these oases in the Desert of the Clouds discovered the secrets that were sleeping in the desert, and they could not resist the temptation of the secrets of the Demon Path, and began to abuse these powers.

A powerful demon seed has been created, and with it, ambition has been stirred, which has brought destruction to the people of the desert.

Eventually, the unfortunate days came. The royal court has fallen, and the capital has fallen. The Tang army also had to retreat temporarily, and the pass of the Great Wall was closed from then on.

The swelling spread into hellfire, burning the homes of so many people to ashes and displacing countless others.

It was also from that time that Ming Chongyan, who didn't want to see sadness and tears anymore, made up his mind to go to the Great Wall to regain the lost territory for the imperial court and recreate the glory of the former desert.

Along the way, he met many like-minded partners, and these reliable partners also became teammates who were born and died together in the future.

Known as the Guardians of the Great Wall, their faith is as strong as steel and unshakable.

With their own hands, coupled with the support of the Empire, they were able to defeat the raging demon seed and the flames of aggression for a time.

The reputation of the Great Wall Guards has resounded throughout the scorching desert, and wherever they go, they will surely bring peace and stability.

Therefore, just as Tongming Chongyan hoped, the flowers of happiness, even in the dry desert, can also bloom and warm everyone's heart.

But

Although good news continued to come and the desert gradually returned to its former glory, Ming Chongyan's heart gradually began to waver.

It was during a fierce battle that the troops of the Great Wall discovered the remaining traces of the demon seed.

Ming Chongyan didn't think much about it, and wanted to use cold weapons to destroy all these remaining demon seeds, but when the long sword swung down, what he saw was the pupils that were so cold that they almost made him fall into a cold pool.

"Arbitrarily trampling on the freedom of other races, is this what you humans call justice?!"

The demon seed opened its mouth to speak, and the demon seeds that can speak are naturally those with stronger bloodlines, and if they take their heads, they can get a lot of bounties.

However, Ming Chongyan hesitated at that moment.

Sorrowful life

The demon seed is bleeding and crying, just like humans.

They use their bodies to shelter their children at the last moment until the last drop of blood is gone.

But

The blood was finally splashed in front of him, but Ming Chongyan also lost the strength of his whole body.

Justice?

The reason why he joined the Great Wall is precisely to destroy the demon seed and restore the glory and peace of the desert, which is his firm belief.

However, as the blood on his hands increased, Ming Chongyan felt an unprecedented pressure, and the cold pupils of the demon seed kept repeating in front of him, as if questioning him————

Is the trampling on life really justice?

The appearance of the demon seed has brought disaster to mankind; The human counterattack also caused the demon seed to be slaughtered.

The demon seed is certainly ferocious, but the infinite expansion of human beings is deeper than the boundless desert

Life, in the midst of a dirty war, is so fragile and insignificant.

Life, whether it is a human being or a demon seed, should have the right to live on its own, right?

Originally, when Ming Chongyan wanted to find this answer after the unification of Heluo, the situation changed drastically.

The ruthlessness of the court, the framing of traitorous ministers, and the betrayal of his once born and dead companions

Everything he originally had, as well as the belief he wanted to protect, just in that moment, Ming Chongyan lost all of them and collapsed.

Falling into the boundless abyss, he chose the power of the fallen god and resurrected as "Ming Shiyin".

And Ming Chongyan, the abandoned soul, was used as a medium to seize the power of the Eye of Annihilation and permanently sealed it in the body of the Eye of Annihilation.

"Hahaha, Ming Chongyan, who once fought to protect the happiness of others, is now just a lonely ghost who has lost everything."

Speaking of this, Ming Chongyan suddenly burst out laughing, but the laughter was so sad, it was the loss of everything, endless despair.

"Lu Yu, do you know why I envy you?"

However, without waiting for Lu Yu to speak, Ming Chongyan shook his head to herself, the smile on her lips was helpless and self-deprecating.

"If fighting is a sin, then I just think about how to escape it. As the guardians of the Great Wall, the righteousness that he upheld was to protect the happiness of mankind, but the result was to trample on the freedom of other lives. To be honest, I can't accept this fact, and I don't have the courage to face it, let alone face the lives that have passed. ”

"But, Lu Yu, I admire you very much. Even though you know that the battle is a sin, you still choose to bear it, and remember the lives that have been lost, and continue to fight. This, I guess, there are few people in this world who can compare to you. ”
