Chapter 8: Paradise Fantasy and Lives for Lives
Lan Yan walked in the crevices of the woods, and every time he stepped on it, there would be thousands of strange footprints.
However, he didn't care about any of that. Because he heard it, it seemed to belong to Ruan Ruan's voice, but it was far away and unreal.
He shouted Nguyen's name, but the voice—no matter which direction he went—waned.
There is another voice, it should be Shen Ximing. But this time, the voice is very real, and when you hear it, you can be sure that the voice is real.
That's the scream, though.
Lan Yan hurriedly ran in the direction of the sound.
But the girl who had just broken in impulsively, trembling, staring at a blood-spurting body—looking at its appearance, might have become a corpse—and forgetting to look away.
From the color of the blood, it can be seen that the corpse has not been dead for a long time.
The owner of that corpse was naturally Ruan Ruan.
Moreover, there was no sharp weapon that passed through the body - it was most likely the poison of some kind of poison that caused death.
Poison...... Is it that somewhere in this forest, or in the forest as a whole, is toxic?
Lan Yan didn't dare to think about it anymore.
So, he went straight to Shen Ximing.
Shen Ximing found him coming, and secretly sighed, this world is not dark after all.
Let's hope that light is the main color of this world.
Lan Yan was the first to speak: "There is a great possibility that we will be poisoned. ”
He was indifferent and gave up struggling because he was lost.
He closed his eyes and silently thought in his heart about this life - in the face of unknown life and death, he was only vulnerable.
Shen Ximing suddenly patted the desperate man on the shoulder: "Perhaps, things are not as bad as you think. ”
"At least, we're alive now."
"Isn't it? So, don't give up. ”
Lan Yan was suddenly extremely tired—he tried to leave according to Han Quan's method before, only to find that the arrows he had drawn were pointing in all directions!
In fact, he was wrong.
He sighed.
Even if there were 10,000 voices in his heart shouting deafeningly, it would not help him to be disheartened. Despair had enveloped his heart.
Shen Ximing saw his despair, and just said, "Okay, then let's imagine what heaven looks like." “
"People like us will definitely go to heaven after we die." She suddenly laughed, sadly.
Lan Yan opened his mouth in a hoarse voice: "Where is it...... It has the most beautiful scenery, lotus ponds are in patches, and you can't see the edge. Lotus flowers swaying in it, like the scenery of Central China. The first thing that came to his mind was the so-called "fairyland".
He tried his best to use beautiful words to soothe his heart that was about to despair completely.
Shen Ximing continued: "There are delicious foods that you can't get tired of eating, junk food, barbecue and milk tea are not fat!" At this, she couldn't help but chuckle.
Lan Yan was stunned for a moment, watching her continue to whisper: "Now, I want pure music - it will make people feel calm. ”
Lan Yan said: "I don't listen to pure music. On the contrary, I love rock 'n' roll. The corners of his mouth were curled by small talk.
He said, "Do you believe that there is a heaven?" ”
"I choose to believe." A clear voice sounded indifferently.
"For the sake of hope, I choose to believe." She repeated, accentuating the articulation.
She stood up, patted the dirt off her body, and looked at one of the countless trees in her field of vision.
She was suddenly startled - she covered her mouth and took a step back. Her eyes raced to the words on the tree, but she didn't say a word.
Lan Yan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Ximing was no longer able to say "it's okay".
She pointed to the words on a tree—they were only on that tree, and the light brown color that was different from the bark made them very clear.
Lan Yan reads: "God's grace has come today. If a person is willing to sacrifice himself blindfolded and cut off the five fingertips of his left hand to release fresh blood to God, He will grant you a wish. ”
Suddenly, a miserable smile cracked across Lan Yan's face.
He grinned wildly, grinding his teeth like a beast.
"Hiss" was the sound of him tearing off one of his black clothes.
He grinned again and looked at Shen Ximing sadly.
Shen Ximing saw the sadness in his eyes, but he struggled to take away the strip of cloth.
She saw that Lan Yan did not continue to walk towards her. Instead, he suddenly covered his eyes.
A hoarse voice rang out, "Don't underestimate humanity, girl. ”
Then, he bit the tips of the five fingers of his left hand one by one with his teeth, biting his index finger so hard that it shattered his nails.
Shen Ximing burst into tears and rushed towards Lan Yan with his life, but was pushed away by his right hand again and again.
Lan Yan pushed her away and said loudly: "God, if you exist, please protect this girl next to me, Shen Ximing, to spend her life in peace and grow old." ”
"Don't you think about prolonging life?" An evil voice sounded, giving people a demagogic feeling.
The gleam of Lan Yan's eyes under the black cloth swayed for a moment, but he regained his clarity.
"Nope." He said calmly.
"If you live too long, you won't be yourself." He spoke word for word to the unknown being.
In my ears, there was no more such sound.
In a peach grove not far from the forest, herbal tea stands next to a peach tree. Totem whispered in his ear: "That girl, very interesting, stay and see." ”
Herbal tea tacitly acquiesces to him as "he" – although the pronunciation is the same, but the meaning of the reference is completely different.
Herbal Tea just nodded.
He said, "That sacrifice is also very interesting." However, he can only be a sacrifice. ”
Herbal tea did not nod this time, but tried its best to look into the distance.
Until, the distant scenery blurred the vision, and thousands of peach trees turned green.
Lan Yan felt that his life was passing, flowing out of his body bit by bit.
He knows that the so-called "passing of life" is actually the feeling of blood leaving the body.
There was no pain between his fingers, but the blood loss had made him unconscious.
Shen Ximing frantically wiped his fingertips and stopped the bleeding, but the blood continued to flow.
Lan Yan felt the temperature of his fingertips and smiled indifferently.
"I'm very happy, because now I am not just a half-good."
"I used my kindness and life to save someone."
"A kinder girl than me."
In the gloomy woods, there was almost no light. But the wind blew and blew away some of the leaves, so that the light of the sky came back to view: the edges of the leaves overhead, there was an incredible gold, swaying slowly in the breeze.
Tears began to flow slowly from the corners of Shen Ximing's eyes.
She wiped it casually and asked in a trembling tone, "Are you ......?"
She choked up for a long time, and finally finished the second half of the sentence: "You can ...... I don't take advantage of this opportunity. Moreover, this may not be true. Maybe...... You will die in vain! Speaking of the latter, she suddenly quickened her tone.
"Forgive my selfishness—that's why humans don't become completely good after all—I don't want to live in this woods while suffering endless mental torture."
"I want to save my mind and a girl through death."
