Chapter 442: Origin
Qu Cong paused for a moment, as if he was remembering something. He stroked one hand gently on the table, not knowing what kind of state of mind it was.
After that, he moved his gaze to the side and said slowly, "At that time, I was so deluded that I couldn't get the position of patriarch or beloved, so I transferred all my anger to innocent people. The details, you know. ”
"Later, I took my team for a while, almost winning many battles, and also made a world of my own. However, the more this happened, the more I felt lost. I don't think this kind of life is what I want. ”
"I married ten women and had twelve children. However, I always feel that they are far away from me, and I feel that they are a kind of venting for me, rather than a so-called family affection. I attributed my own loss to the fact that I had gained too little, and then continued to expand, and I continued to make enemies. ”
"Until one day, I led the team on a trip and it was defeated. However, when I returned, I found that the forces I had worked so hard to build up had been destroyed by several hostile forces. It was like I had experienced another big ups and downs, from the peak of my life to the bottom again. ”
"What I didn't expect was that my ten wives and twelve children were all killed by those people and placed neatly on the ground. I suddenly felt very heartbroken, and then I realized that I loved them so much. I hate, I hate these people, and I want revenge. ”
"So, I chased one of them alone. When I captured their leader, I asked him why he was so vicious. As a result, he said, he turned out to be just a scholar. He was so vicious, I forced him. Because I killed his whole family. ”
"I was touched in my heart, but I killed him. Later, I wanted to hunt down other forces, but I hesitated. As he said, my hatred is due to the sins I have sown. If I continue to be so obsessed with killing, I am afraid that I will only make myself more and more lost and miserable. ”
"I walked farther and farther by myself, and then I came to this area. Here, I built a hut and didn't want to communicate with anyone and lived a life of self-sufficiency in fishing and hunting. In fact, it was not a life at that time, but a kind of torture. I'm torturing myself non-stop. ”
"In the process, I found myself thinking more and more openly. Later, there was a man who passed by here and died of a serious illness, and it happened that he had half a Buddhist sutra on him. I wasn't interested in Buddha, but out of boredom, I read it. This gave me a lot of inspiration. ”
Later, I fully reflected on my sins, and spent nearly half a year writing a book of 10,000 words, which was actually a suicide note I prepared for myself. I found that there was no value or meaning in living, and I had a lot of evil deeds on my body and countless enemies outside, so I had the idea of committing suicide. ”
"At this moment, outside the hut where I lived, more than a dozen people came. They had fled here after being hunted down, and almost all of them were seriously wounded. They asked me for help, and I myself was disillusioned, I just thought, "If you save it, you can save it." ”
"When these people got better, they saw the book I had written, and they all said that they were deeply inspired, and they all regretted that I had given them a second life and a new life. I began to think that they were just flattering me, afraid that if I didn't treat them to the end, they would not be able to survive in the snow and ice. But later, after they recovered, they didn't want to leave one by one, saying that they wanted to stay with me, so I believed it. ”
"I told them that I wasn't ready to live. And they said, I'm still valuable. The medical skills alone are extraordinary. Coupled with this 10,000-word thought book, it really makes people repent from the bottom of their hearts. They advised me that it would be better to expand the scale here and build an inn or something, so that I could make a living and help the lost. ”
"I didn't agree at first, but then they moved me. So, we built an inn together, called Siguo Xiaoyi. They also specially engraved the book of ten thousand words on the tablet and stood next to it. Of course, due to the geographical location here, there are not many people who come and go to Si Xiaoyi, only a few per month, but as they say, most people have gained new life insights because of this Si Guo book. Especially those who bear the burden of sin are willing to stay. ”
"Therefore, the scale of Siguo Xiaoyi is getting bigger and bigger. Later, when there were so many people, we started to build the city. The size of the city is also expanding, reaching its peak five years ago, about twice as large as it is now. However, such a peaceful paradise was ruined by one thing. ”
"That's the 10,000-year-old snow beast. It's the kind of beast you saw that night. Actually, the 10,000-year-old snow beast shouldn't have been in this place. But for some reason, they came. There are three of them. They have caused unprecedented damage to our Siguo City, not only destroying buildings, but also killing and wounding sixty percent of people. Originally, we were ready to abandon this place and flee for our lives, but later, I tried to use our Fire Clan's beast driving method to scare away the 10,000-year-old snow beasts, so that they no longer dared to come closer. ”
"After reassuring the people, we stopped here for a while. Because we don't know where the 10,000-year-old snow beasts have gone, if we suddenly encounter them during migration, we are afraid that the casualties will be heavier. Sure enough, a month later, the snow beast came again. With the experience of the last time, I expelled them in a very short time. ”
"Seeing that I have a way to cure beasts, these worship me even more. They believe that the fact that I can subdue the 10,000-year-old snow beast fully shows that I am the strongest person in this snowy region, which is the origin of the title of the king of the snowy region. In addition, we have lived here for a long time, and after deliberation and free choice, some of us stayed, and built another city on the basis of the original city, which is what you see as the new city of thought. ”
"Actually, the 10,000-year-old snow beast hasn't been seen around here for more than a year. That night, they reappeared, not knowing exactly what the specific cause was. I noticed it when you were outside the city. It's just that people don't come into the city automatically, so we don't invite them. Because that feels like a coercion. ”
Speaking of this, Qu Cong took a deep breath, "The above is the origin of this Siguo City. I know that in your eyes, I am a sinner, and you must want to kill me. For the Fire Clan, for the Red Valley City. ”
He pretended to smile lightly, "You can do it at any time, if you want to do chivalry." ”
After hearing this, Ding Qin's mood was extremely complicated. That's right, Qu Cong was once indeed a villain, he admitted it himself. But now, he's not.
As if he were talking about someone else, he gained a new lease of life.
He was purifying anyone who came to this place in a very merciful way. Now he is more like a wise man.
In particular, this openness to life, death, and sin.
After thinking for a long time, Ding Qin shook his head, "Actually, I have nothing to do with the Fire Clan and Red Valley City. If you really let go of your sins, then I shouldn't chase these past events to show my personal chivalry. It's just that, even so, I still feel sorry for what happened to another person. ”
"Who? has something to do with me?" Qu Cong's expression became obviously serious.
"The medical family of Honggu City, the Mao family, and its son Mao Daxi. He and his wife were key figures when you slaughtered the city. For the sake of the human brain rejuvenation pill, they sold the lives of the people of the entire city. Of course, they are not intentionally betrayed, but are being used by you. From the famous man in the city, to the later name change and surname wandering the world, to the last murder and brain theft, notoriety, and finally death for the son, you have made them suffer too many things that they should not bear. You make the most of people's emotional weaknesses. When Ding Qin said this, he involuntarily clenched his fists.
"Oh. Qu Cong's expression didn't change much, "They finally refined the Human Brain Rejuvenation Pill?"
Ding Qin nodded.
Qu Cong smiled bitterly, "That's good." No matter what the price is, it saves the individual. Good and evil are born together, good thoughts may do evil things, and evil things may bear good results. ”
Ding Qin was silent for a while. He was not interested in Qu Cong's feelings, but thought of his own life experience again. "I heard Mo Hafei say that you said that I am the person who should have thought about the wall the most. Why? Do you know where I came from?"
Qu Cong said, "You and I are just meeting for the first time, where do I go to know your background." ”
Ding Qin was puzzled, "Then, why should I think about the wall the most?"
Qu Cong said, "For your future." You're extraordinary, the best of your age. You have the courage and insight, and you dare to fight when you know that your strength is not as good as that of the 10,000-year-old snow beast. You still have a sense of righteousness, I was on the walled city at the time, and I could see that you were trying to buy time for your team. ”
He stood up and turned his eyes out the window, "People like you, keep good thoughts, you can become a generation of famous heroes, if there is evil, it is the source of evil." I'm optimistic about you, that's why I said, you should think about it. Of course, all those who have passed by me have thought about it, I will ask them to think about it. Under the reflection wall I built, it is not necessarily what kind of perception everyone has. ”
"I see. A faint sense of loss rose in Ding Qin's heart, "I thought that my lost memories had hope to be recovered." ”
Qu Cong turned to look at Ding Qin, "Take my words to heart." What can you do if you get what you have lost? This is true for things and objects, and the same is true for memories. Wouldn't it be nice to live your own life like you are now?"
His words touched Ding Qin. yes, isn't it?
If you are so willing, you can plan a new life from now on.
But on second thought, it's not good. What if you still have responsibilities on your own?
Responsibilities must be carried, debts must be repaid, and promises must be fulfilled!
Therefore, Ding Qin did not answer Qu Cong's question, but got up and said, "Why don't you ask the city lord to take me to think about the wall." ”
A slightly strange smile appeared on Qu Cong's face, his eyes were also a little different from before, and he made a gesture of invitation with his hand, "Let's go." ”
