The corpses of veterans are cremated and buried, and the simple grave bag is more like an earthen bag, and the veteran is lucky compared to those who can't even find the corpse in the wilderness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The fat man lit a cigarette, and the intact cigarette, the special smell of tobacco burning, gave the fat man and the monkey a moment of peace in their chaotic minds.

"Old man, go all the way." The fat man bowed respectfully and put his cigarette on the veteran's grave.

Looking at the dilapidated outpost not far away, which had been washed away by the insect tide, the fat man shook his head, he knew that he was going to return to his life of exile, and that he could no longer be a slave catcher, and his slave catcher had been completely damaged in the battle not long ago.

The fat man's mood is depressed, the home he has lived in for so many years is destroyed in one move, and too many familiar faces disappear completely. What made him even more depressed was that he had found organs that he had never had before from the half-corpse of the commander who had been killed by K, and these eugenics had evolved a structure similar to that of human vocal cords, even if the fat man was just an ordinary slave catcher, he knew that this situation was not normal.

He admits that he lost the ability to think for a moment when the conductor spoke.

"Brother." The monkey took the fat man's hand at this time, "What should we do now?" ”

The fat man sighed and touched the wound on his chest, "Only that one can go." ”

The monkey's expression struggled a little after hearing this, "But...... Are we really going to do that? My mother ......."

"Your mother is dead." The fat man said categorically, "Don't fantasize anymore, she hasn't come back for so many years, I can't think of any other possibility than death." ”

After hearing this, the monkey hesitated at first and finally gritted his teeth, "Okay." Let's go see it! ”

The fat man nodded, and turned to the figure not far away, "K, give me the key." ”

K was playing with the key in his hand boredly, the wound on his shoulder had scabbed over at this time, and after hearing the fat man's scream, he twisted his head, "This is mine, I exchanged it." ”

The fat man frowned, walked over to K's side in a few steps, and patted him on the shoulder, "I know it's yours, we just borrowed it for use, and we'll return it to you later." ”

"No." K rejected the fat man almost without any pause.

Looking at K, who was playing with the key in his hand in front of the sun, the fat man only felt his eyelids jump, "You! ”

"Big brother, let me come." The monkey hurried to stop the fat man.

Immediately afterward, the monkey said to K, "Shall we exchange?" I'll help you unshackle your legs, and you lend us the key. ”

K stared and thought for a moment, then suddenly grinned, "Okay, exchange." ”

The monkey winked at the fat man, and the fat man untied his shackles with a gloomy face, if it weren't for the words of the old soldier before he died, he would not have tolerated an imperial slave so patiently.

After the shackles were unfastened, K handed over the key in his hand, and then he stomped his feet happily to celebrate the joy of regaining his freedom.

"Let's go." The fat man grabbed the key and walked away without looking back, followed by the monkey.

But after the two of them walked for a while, they vaguely felt that something was wrong, and when they turned their heads, they realized that K, who had regained his freedom, had gone in the opposite direction from them.

"it!" The fat man couldn't help but scold, this kid is too ignorant of lifting.

The monkey hurried over and quickly caught up with K, who panted and asked, "Why don't you come with us?" ”

"You're bad people, I don't like it." K shook his head.

The monkey was stunned in embarrassment, and then realized that there was really no friendship between the slave catcher and the slave.

"But......" He wanted to say something, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"Damn, leave this kid alone, let him die by himself!" The fat man shouted and cursed.

The monkey lowered his head and hurriedly ran back again, "Brother, are you stupid?" This guy is a little stupid, but we can't do without him! Even the bugs are afraid of this guy, if we are with him all the way, of course we don't need to worry about the attack of the bugs! ”

After hearing this, the fat man's expression was red and white, and finally he spat heavily and said, "Damn, it's up to you!" ”

The monkey breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran back, "My eldest brother said ......."

"I heard what you said," K yawned leisurely, "if you want me to follow you, you can do it, but you have to make sure you don't scold me or beat me, or I'll leave immediately." ”

K's request was ridiculously simple, so much so that the monkey was a little stunned after listening to it, and could he really hear his own low-pitched conversation from such a distance? The monkey was a little skeptical.

"You need me, but I don't need you, I'm not stupid." K went on to add.

At this moment, the monkey really didn't know if K was smart or stupid.

"What a strange guy." He scratched the back of his head and muttered to himself.

And so, a strange combination appeared in the endless wilderness, two skinny like firewood, and one fat like a ball.

The fat man didn't know what he was thinking, his expression and eyes were a little wandering, and he struggled and sighed at times, so that he didn't even hear the monkey's words until the monkey tugged at his hand.

"Brother, what are you thinking?"

"Nothing." The fat man shook his head.

"Something? Because of the old man? ”

"Some." The fat man replied with some prevarication.

The monkey didn't hear the heaviness and depression in the fat man's tone, and he asked instead, "Brother, do you say my mother is really dead?" ”

The fat man was stunned, and then said slowly, "What if you die, what if you live, life has to go on, as long as she doesn't come back, you will treat her as dead." ”

"But if she's alive, shouldn't we go looking for that thing? I remember that my mother had told me not to look for it unless she came back, and I don't think the old man said anything when he died, but he didn't want us to go. ”

"As a last resort." The fat man repeated in a low voice, "Do you think now is not the time to expect it?" ”

"Brother, I didn't mean that......"

The fat man sighed, "Monkey, when you were still young, you didn't know some things very well, in fact, your mother had a long talk with me when she left, she was very hesitant about your future, and she didn't know if the path she chose for you was correct." Today I want to ask you, would you like to go on like this for the rest of your life, or do you want to walk out of another life? ”

"Don't rush to answer my question until we arrive, you have plenty of time to think about it. Maybe you're tired of your current life, but the other path is not as beautiful as you think, think about your mother, think about the old man, think about the guys who left one after another, think about the blood, think about death. ”

"I'll wait for your answer." (To be continued.) )
