Chapter 32: Singing to the Moon (Part II)
Alan watched the two people from different races in front of him joke with each other, and for the first time a faint smile appeared on his face, and after he organized his language a little, he continued in a very reluctant tone: "Okay, okay, since I'm the last person to join, let me tell my story first." β
"In short, even I have to admit that those people are really good to me, and I really thought they would be my family, but then I realized that they were all fake, and everything they did actually had a purpose. β
"Because of my identity as an ancient spirit clan, the current three major empires of the spirit race want to compete for me, and in my name, establish the orthodox name of the spirit race for themselves, and then they can reasonably start to annex other spirit empires, not only that, but even those nobles within the three empires, many of them also want to use my name to seize the supreme power in the country. β
When he said this, his expression suddenly became very sad, so sad that even his voice changed, but this time he did not immediately stop talking.
"I didn't want to wash away my sins like this, but at that time, I really didn't know anything, so I was used by them. β
"When I was going around all kinds of grand banquets every day, enjoying the crowd of people, full of joy, thinking that this was the life I wanted, there were many people dying because of me in places I didn't know. β
"There was once a little girl, I remember very well, because her eyes were very beautiful, very similar to my mother's, and she also took the initiative to send me a beautiful violet when I was parading with the priests of the temple, but it didn't take long for her entire village to be destroyed because of a war, and at that time, I was still happy for the new friend I had just met, but I never thought that the cold-blooded demon who ordered the destruction of the whole village was my former 'friends'γγγγγγ β
"She was the only one who escaped, her parents were really great, at that time, they were willing to sacrifice themselves to hide her under their bodies, but she didn't run away, she was so brave, she ran to the royal capital alone, found me, and I learned the truth in her cries and questions, and I knew what a dirty soul those hidden behind the beautiful smile. β
Alan jerked his head, completely lost in the painful memories of his past, and muttered, "But, but, you know, you know, you know? Those foul-smelling devils actually thought that I was already the same kind as them, and they, how dare they say their plans in front of me, without any scruples, and promise me so happily that after that, I will become the only high priest of the entire Spirit Race, the only oracle, and the right to be equal to the future king of the Spirit Race, so lightly, as if the truth I heard just now is so worthless in front of these things. β
An extremely strange smile appeared on Allen's face, and he said slowly: "Then, then they actually asked me to kill her, to kill an innocent victim, to kill a crying child." β
Gu Xuan, who was lying on the ground, and Adam, who was leaning on the straw mat, glanced at each other, in fact, compared to Allen, a person who had been staying in his own field and was completely ignorant of the world, the two of them were not too surprised by this kind of thing.
Especially Gu Xuan, because in the human race, on any visible stage, in any invisible corner, this kind of tragedy has happened too much, how many careerists, how many war maniacs, without guilt in their hearts, deceived those who were good by nature, for their own selfish desires, how many families that should have been intact were torn apart, and how many people who once lived and worked in peace and contentment were displaced.
It's too much, it's just too much!
Every history book of the human race is stained with the blood and tears of the people, but no matter when, no matter how clumsy the lies, there will always be people who naively believe those devils with friendly smiles, deceive themselves into thinking that they are different from those who came before, and even spare no effort to tell others that those people are great, selfless, unique, and really love them, the good people of the common people, and the poor worms who are carried away, after being ruthlessly run over by the wheel of history, cast the throne and wealth of careerists with their own flesh and bonesγ
In fact, in every era, there is no shortage of smart people, and there is no shortage of fools, in fact, Gu Xuan was also very sad when he listened to Allen's story, but he was not sentimental for the story itself, but for his numbness at that moment.
Once upon a time, he was also a young man who was full of enthusiasm and thought that he could change the way of the world, let the good people get good retribution, and let the wicked get bad retribution, but now he will feel numb and tired, no wonder the second brother said that, "I hope that after going through the world, you can still keep your original intention, so that you can live up to my trust."
Alan here raised his head, obviously because the story had come to an end, he smiled helplessly, and said very lonely: "It's ridiculous, I killed those devils, but the other devils not only didn't fear me because of this, but they wanted to find me and let me be used by them, so I fled, I didn't go back to the Divine Tree Forest, I thought, this world, maybe only here, for me, can be regarded as the real home." β
His tone was very low, and that heartfelt loneliness emanated from his bones.
Compared to staying in the bustling and prosperous outside world, where he can enjoy the support of everyone and the worship of all the people, he would rather live alone and die here alone, and it can be seen that he has been completely disappointed in the outside world.
"Cheer up. Adam, who looked a little better next to him, couldn't help but speak loudly and cheered for him, "The three of us have to liveγγγγγγ β
Gu Xuan saw that the atmosphere in the audience was a little gloomy, and hurriedly interjected: "Since Allen's story is finished, then I will also tell my story, Adam, I guess you also want to know." β
Adam knew his intentions, and nodded hurriedly, but did not speak, so Gu Xuan said to himself: "The situation of our human race, in fact, is similar to you, in the middle of our Western Continent, the largest piece of place, called 'Atrium', it originally belonged to an empire called 'Zhou', but now it has been torn apart with the passage of time, the original nobles now want to become the new masters of the Atrium, and I, as for a countryman, I come from a place called ' The country of Liang', it is the southernmost part of the Western Continent, and my father is the master of this country, but my father has many wives and children, and I am actually the least favored one of them, but with the help of many people, I have become the most favored successor, and after that, I have become like this. β
Compared with the previous story, Gu Xuan's own story is much shorter, because he omitted a lot of details, in fact, it is not that he is unwilling to tell the truth, but it is completely unnecessary, and the matter about the second brother is just his memory.
Alan glanced at the ground, and couldn't help but take the initiative to talk: "You were framed?"
The expression on Gu Xuan's face was extremely indifferent, but in his only eyes, there was extreme pain and strong killing intent.
"Yes, someone killed my father, and then framed me for doing it, and launched a hunt for me, and in desperation, but also due to various coincidences, I got on the cargo ship of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce to transport slaves to your Eastern Continent, and thus met Adam on the ship. β
Adam nodded lightly, and then took over the conversation and said: "As you can see, Alan, I am a mixed-race child, my father is an earthling, and my mother is a human slave who was once sold by the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, more than thirty years ago, my father fell in love with my mother at first sight, and immediately took her back to the tribe, even at the expense of disobeying the will of his father, that is, the big chief of our tribe, and still officially married her. β
A warm smile appeared on Adam's face at the same time.
"You know, on our side of the Earth Clan, the significance of formal marriage is very great, and I was born in the East Continent because of this, although I have understood since I was a child that I am actually different from others, but whether it is my father or mother, they have told me that mine is indeed a Earth Clan, of course, I also understand, because for my mother, the East Continent is more like her real home. β
On the one hand, for the sake of profit, they can catch themselves and sell them like animals, and on the other hand, they do not hesitate to disobey the rules and still give themselves selfless, wholehearted love, Adam's mother naturally understands who is her real family.
Those who have the same blood may not be relatives, and those with the same appearance may not be the same race, and whether they can become family members in the end depends only on whether the other party is willing to love themselves and to what extent, because everyone can say things, but not everyone will do them.
"After that, my grandfather, the big chief of our tribe, also slowly noticed me. "I must say that I am indeed the smartest and most capable man in our tribe, both in battle and in governance. β
"Maybe my father's name to me really played a role, Mother Earth gave me the good side of both races, I not only have the strong fighting talent of our earth, but also inherited the wisdom of the human race from my mother, plus the cooperation between the tribe and the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce has increased day by day, the big chief has become more and more valued by me, even if I am not willing to have more contact with the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, but he still thinks that I can become a bridge of communication between the human race and the earth race. β
Gu Xuan said inexplicably: "But at the end of the story, it's always a tragedy, right." β
Adam nodded slowly, his expression darkening at the same time, and his tone was visibly sad.
"Yes, my father's brother, my own uncle, is a very ambitious man, and I have to admit that my father is not at all as good as him, and that he was indeed more loved by the Great Chieftain, and that he has put away his fangs before, and has been quietly waiting for the day when he will succeed to the throne. β
"But as I grew up, he slowly began to see me as a threat, and when the day finally came, he couldn't wait any longer. Adam's eyes suddenly shed tears, "He brutally killed the Great Chieftain, as well as my parents, and I could only take advantage of the chaos to escape, got on the ship at night, and went to the Western Continent for refuge, but unfortunately, I still couldn't escape his minions, I was caught by the people of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce in the Western Continent, and then I was arranged to be sent back to the Eastern Continent by ship to accept the trial of that executioner!"
This is the story of Adam, in fact, he has long wanted to vomit, and as a lander, in fact, he doesn't like the feeling of holding things in his heart, he needs to confide and comfort, and now is the best time.
"Whew!"
Adam was relieved when he finally spoke, he wiped the tears from his eyes, turned his head to look at the two, and smiled: "But life doesn't always give us unpalatable fruit, right, at least, I have met two real friends now." β
Gu Xuan supported the ground with his hands and slowly got up from the ground, even though his muscles and bones hurt, he still insisted on sitting up, Alan in front of him hesitated, and finally did not stop him, but silently moved a bunch of broken grass leaves from the side for him to rely on.
"In our human race, there was once a great poet surnamed 'Bai' who wrote a sentence, called 'the same people who have fallen from the end of the world, why should we have known each other when we meet', and I have a second brother who also once said a sentence, 'Life in the world, whether it is a meeting that passes by, or a parting after a long time, it is actually fate', these words are a bit twisted, but the meeting of the three of us, I believe this is the will of God!"
"Isn't it that no one has ever walked out of here, I believe we are the first!" Gu Xuan raised his head violently, looked at the sky that was as night as the outside world, although there was no moon, and shouted proudly, "There is no wine today, when we sing to the moon, we are born to create miracles, aren't we?"
Adam clapped his hands and happily agreed, "Yes, if someone is bound to walk out of here, then why can't it be us?"
"Live well, even if it's for someone else's sake. Gu Xuan turned his head to look at Allen and said, "If you think the world is not good, then change it, my second brother once said, 'Escaping is the most useless behavior, if you really can't hold on one day, then shout to the sky'." β
Alan asked suspiciously, "What are you shouting?"
Gu Xuan smiled slightly, suddenly turned his head, and yelled.
"I'm you!"
At this time, Alan and Adam were a little puzzled, and asked together, "What does this mean?"
Gu Xuan stretched out his hand and said very innocently: "I don't know, my second brother said that this is the dialect of a place in our Liangguo, in short, after shouting this sentence, you should have the courage to persevere." β
Alan next to him was thoughtful, but Adam raised his eyebrows and whispered, "Wait, you say it again, I didn't remember it just now." β
