This farewell was long and short for me. It's very long, and it takes me a long, long time to trace the bits and pieces that happened in the past, and at the same time, it's very short, short to an instant, and it's goodbye forever.

This kind of pain is completely unimaginable for people who have not experienced it. It's like having a hand that ruthlessly hollows out your heart completely.

I sat beside my father's body for a long time, with me without saying a word. The two of us smoked cigarette after cigarette cigarette until the floor was full of cigarette butts when he looked up and said, "Can you still do something for him?" ”

"What...... What's ......?"

"He didn't tell you, but he mentioned to me before that he wanted to be buried in his hometown by your own hands after he died."

It is the long-cherished wish of the older generation, especially in our countryside, before the old man dies, he is particularly concerned about whether he can be buried by his children and grandchildren. His father has been in Huayang for most of his life, but he has not forgotten that he is just a native of the country, and he still has the tradition of the countryman in his bones.

He had been on the road for half his life, and before he died, the only hope was that I would be able to bury him with my own hands. But he didn't ask for it, and I think he must have known that I resented him in my heart, and even hated him. He didn't want to make this request, and I refused. If that's the case, he'll die without a blind eye.

"I know......" I replied, at this moment, I don't treat him as Su Shiren anymore, he is my father, who gave me life and raised me with hard work.

I have made up my mind that if I can hold on, I will fulfill his wish and bury him back to his hometown in the countryside with my own hands.

I smoked for a long time, relatively silently, before he moved my father's body aside and wiped the dust off his face with water.

"Let's get down to business." After finishing this, he sat down in front of me very seriously, he turned around and pointed to the gate behind him, and said: "A lot of clues, we don't need to think about it anymore, you have also experienced a lot, I estimate that you know a lot of situations in this big event, so I don't go around in circles with you, do you know where this gate leads?" It leads to a path that leads to a huge, mysterious ball of light. ”

"A path to a path? A mysterious ball of light? I was stunned, because I remembered very well that the door to the ball of light was not the one in front of me. I can remember a lot of things, but I can't be wrong about this one. I doubt that the information obtained by the full stop is accurate or not.

"You don't have to doubt it, really, I didn't lie to you, and I'm sure." Still with that usual confidence, the full stop said: "Many situations will change. ”

The full stop sentence seemed to wake me up, that huge ball of light, it seems to have a very magical power, if the ball of light is touched, maybe it will have a chain reaction somewhere in the outside world. It can be said that the door to the ball of light is the key to unlocking the ultimate secret of this great event, however, the location of this key has now changed.

By the way, this change actually came quite suddenly, and my father only learned about it not long ago. In fact, this also invisibly reduces a lot of trouble. The original gate to the ball of light had a forbidden power, and if it weren't for me and Bandacsada, Zhang Momo, Lao Wang, and Ning Xiaomei coming here together, the gate wouldn't have been opened.

But now, none of this is needed, and the door to the ultimate secret has been opened.

"So, Bandacharda has counted everything, but he still misses a little." "He forgot that everything in this world may change invisibly. ”

When Bandacsada died that year, the reason why he dwelled on me was to prepare for the future. Zhang Momo and the three of them are here, as long as the four of us can come here, plus the Bandatchata attached to me, it is equivalent to all five of them.

The full stop told me that Zhang Momo and the three of them had been left here before, guarded by a special person, probably waiting for me to figure out what should be clarified, find the three of them to meet, and then go to open the gate. The change in the gate also made a temporary change to this plan. No wonder when I came to the gate space this time, Zhang Momo and the three of them were no longer there.

In other words, they've done what they're supposed to do, and the rest is up to me.

"Actually, I don't know if I should call you Lian Chengfeng or Bandachado now." The full stop actually showed a hint of a smile: "I don't think it's appropriate to call it." ”

I involuntarily reached out and touched my forehead. Part of Bandacado's thoughts were deeply hidden, and until this time, there was still no reaction. But I had a hunch that Bandactata's consciousness might have awakened, but he couldn't bear it, and he wanted to see how I would solve it.

Actually, I would love to talk to Bandatsa more, and I want to tell him that his long-cherished wish no longer makes any sense. Because time has passed, the world has completely changed, even if you can now crack the ultimate secret of the world, and crack everything hidden by the ball of light, what can you do?

Even if you find a solution through this gate and find a solution in the ball of light, and find the ancient country of Zhangxiong, which has disappeared for more than a thousand years, and the Zhangxiong people, then what? Thousands of people have come to this relatively highly civilized present, can they adapt? They will still be tragically eliminated.

But I couldn't communicate with Bandatchado, and even if I had the opportunity to communicate with him, he wouldn't listen.

"You say, what's next, what to do." I asked calmly, I was ready to take a step forward, whether it was life or death, I didn't really care: "I just hope to hurry, my hunch tells me that I don't have much time, absolutely not much." ”

"Well, it's really not much, maybe you can live for a month, or maybe three days." When he talked about this, he didn't seem to be pessimistic at all, and he didn't sympathize at all, he seemed to be saying something very inconsequential: "I just think it's better for you to stay and stay outside." ”

"Why?"

"Because...... Because even if you go in with me, you won't be able to help, will you? In the words of the full stop, I don't know if it was a mockery, he slanted the cigarette in his mouth, and said: "I go in alone, in fact, it's better, without you holding back, the action may be smoother." ”

I was speechless, and I didn't have much to refute the full stop. His words are not good, but they are all true. How can I help now? I don't even have the strength to kill myself.

However, I refused to give in, I refused to give in to reality. Since participating in this big event, I have experienced many life and death tribulations myself, and I have watched people die one by one. Those people, even if they are not my relatives or friends, I feel sorry for them.

I almost got my life into it, but in the end I didn't even get a chance to participate? I certainly can't accept this outcome.

I solemnly talked to the full stop, and I made my attitude clear. I couldn't give up, even if I couldn't walk, I had to climb through the gate until the end.

The full stop repeatedly stressed to me that in my current state, the most important thing to do is to stay where I am and save some energy, so that I may be able to live for a while longer.

As I spoke, I was a little annoyed, and when I saw that I lost my temper, I also changed my tone, and told me that this matter would be discussed again.

For the rest of the day, full stop thought through all the questions that could come to mind after entering the gate. Bandacado and I have both come into contact with that ball of light, and Bandacado has told Lu Fangding and my father about the ball of light. What the full stop knows is a paraphrase I heard from my father. In fact, it would be superfluous to speculate at this time, because that ball of light is not something that can be obtained by speculation.

Entering the gate and approaching the ball of light, no one can say what the result will be.

I reiterated it to the full stop, to reiterate my own opinion, that I had to see the ball of light with my own eyes. Horizontal and vertical are all dead, and dying in the ball of light is better than dying outside.

I thought about it for a while, and finally I couldn't resist it, so I agreed.

We said okay, rest here for about ten hours, get back to the best condition, and then enter the gate. I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, and when my life is about to come to an end, there is finally a chance to end the big event.

Perhaps because I was about to enter the gate, my spirit fell into a very rare state of euphoria, and I couldn't sleep. He slept next to him for two hours, and when he woke up and saw that my eyes were still open, he shook his head and brought me a pill.

"You have to get some rest, eat this, and sleep well."

I took the sleeping pills given by the period, and the effects of the drugs quickly set in, and within ten minutes, I was asleep. I slept very soundly and sweetly, maybe in the past year or two, this is the most restful and reliable sleep I have.

When I woke up, I couldn't tell whether it was day or night, so I habitually turned my head to look at the full stop around me, but the full stop was gone.

I sat up suddenly, and with all my strength, I heard a soft clang.

It was my own phone that fell to the ground, and when I picked it up, I could see at a glance that it had been touched.
