Chapter 211: The Great Cold
A heavy snowfall, which fell for several days and nights, covered everything around it, and the whole world became as flawless as white jade. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The city, located in the south-central part of the city, has not seen such a heavy snow for many years.
Under the heavy snowfall, everything seems to be peaceful and quiet.
The boring house has been rebuilt and will probably reopen soon. I watched them busy like ordinary humans all the time, and I couldn't help but sigh.
At the same time, I feel like I've never been more lost.
I thought that I had seen through my mission during the year, but after all, the human mind is complex, and after each stage has passed, new confusions will arise.
I didn't have the idea of leaving, on the contrary, if I lost this place, I would feel that I had lost the most important spiritual habitat in my life. But there was always a sense of uneasiness - because since I came here, it seemed that a peaceful and stable life no longer belonged to me.
At night, I opened the window alone and looked out at the snow by the light, letting the coldest wind of the year carry the snowflakes into my window.
At that moment, I heard a voice calling to me.
"Shining ...... Shining ......"
The voice was ethereal, as if it was in the ear, and it seemed to come from far, far away.
"Where have you been!" I couldn't help but scream.
The voice was faint and distorted, but that feeling couldn't be wrong, it must have been the white dragon that had once again lost its presence from my body calling me.
"Are you still there...... Is there any way to ......?"
I'm thinking, is there any way to get him out? But then I thought that the last time I was able to successfully invade the underworld, I still used the power of the Demon God, and this time, who can I borrow?
And......
"Are you alright......" I asked cautiously.
I know that he is a benefactor to all of us. In that crucial battle, he used the power he shouldn't have used to save everyone, but he paid a heavy price himself.
At that moment, I believe everyone saw the shadow of an incomparably huge white dragon frozen in the night sky.
Among them, there must be Liqing.
Later, I don't know how Liqing overcame that drastic mood, but she seems to be calm and normal now. Maybe it's because she's been believing for thousands of years, and she's never lost her faith, and she never will.
Anyway, for them, the big deal is a longer wait.
"Shining ......," a faint voice called out to me from the other side, "I have lost my godhead, so the confinement set by the Protoss can't trap me. ”
"That said, do you have a chance to come out?" I'm overjoyed.
"Yes, but that would require me to take back all of your strength, including your flesh, in which case you will die." He paused and said, "I'm not going to do that." ”
I was stunned and couldn't help but start thinking, if I had to pay with my life in exchange for his return, would I agree to him?
However, he doesn't seem to need me to come up with such an answer.
"Shining, it's cold today, and time and space are out of order, so I found another opportunity, so I came to you. If you want to seize this opportunity, you need your help. ”
"What can I do?" Another opportunity means that you don't need me to die, right?
"I need a door," he said, "a door from the underworld to this world." This door for me can only be opened by you in this world. ”
It's just opening a door. If that's the case, I really don't have anything to hesitate about.
"Tell me what I should do."
The white dragon hesitated again, was silent for a moment, and said, "Shining, I need you to make a choice. ”
"Remember the one piece of her that I asked you to collect every solar term?" For Bai Long, "her" name seems as unspeakable as ever, "Her items have a lot of power to me, and the items collected on special days have different meanings. ”
I nodded. In the beginning, it was difficult for me to hide something that Liqing had used on the day of the solar term. But then, as my strength grew, it wasn't that difficult. Although he in my body no longer made such a request to me, I persevered in this matter by magic.
Now, in one of the drawers in my room, it's already stuffed with these "stolen" things.
"What I need is to use these things to form a formation, and then, I need your power to help me open the door to this world. But......" he hesitated, but continued, "if you do, you'll be depleting all of your abilities." From now on, you will become an ordinary human being. ”
I was stunned for a moment.
"Ordinary human ...... That is, I can't communicate with you anymore, I can't see those strange things anymore, or ...... Can't you see them? ”
I can't see boredom anymore, I can't get along with them like before with the beginning of spring and summer, and I can't see them freely...... Liqing?
This decision came too suddenly, and if I agreed, then today may be the day when my fate with them ends.
Bai Long didn't answer my question, because the answers to my questions were all obvious things. He just said, "Shining, I'm sorry for giving you this decision. But this may be my farewell to you. In your lifetime, maybe I'm the only time I have the opportunity to speak to you, and I would love to say to you, thank you, thank you for all that you've done for me for so long. Actually, it doesn't matter how you choose, I just want to say sorry in advance for the future. It's a pity that your life is not more than a hundred years, and a hundred years is nothing to us. I want to apologize for the fact that when I realized that your life was over, I would come to take back all your power in exchange for my own return. ”
It turned out that although such a choice was given to me, he didn't seem to think that I would choose to rescue him from the River Styx.
Perhaps, in fact, they simply came to say goodbye to me.
Indeed, a hundred years is just a flick of the finger for their long life. They have been separated and waited for three thousand years, and one more hundred years seems to be nothing.
And a hundred years, maybe not a hundred years at all, is already the whole of my life.
To be honest, since I came to Boring Zhai, since I met Liqing, and since I learned the true face of my family, I have never thought about what it would be like to become an ordinary human again. Especially, when I understand that the world is not what I see in my eyes, can I still live calmly and calmly without knowing anything as before?
During this year, I used to secretly rejoice that I had come to Boring Fast, and thought that it would be a beautiful thing to spend my life here!
It's just a pity that my life is so short, and the time I can spend with them and live together is so short that I can't even leave a mark on their lives.
Will they still remember me after a long, long time? Will you still remember that there was such a short life as me in the world?
I never thought that the only time I could spend with each other was a year that even I thought was too short.
I opened the drawer and began to take out Liqing's belongings stored in the drawer and put them on the floor one by one.
"Shining...... "I heard the white dragon call out to me softly.
If I am the only one in the world who can do this, how can I not do it?
I obviously know how Liqing misses you in her heart. And you, it should be the same, right?
The length of my life may indeed be a flick of a finger for your life, but for two longing hearts, even one more second is torment.
With a human heart, I was able to understand all of this thoroughly.
I originally thought that I should go and say goodbye to Liqing and them. But after thinking about it for a while, I felt sour in my heart. If you don't know what to say then, don't be sad.
After all, the voices and smiles of each of them are deeply engraved in my heart, and I will never leave.
