Chapter 47: The Last Choice
After Yue Yi stepped into this door, he only felt that countless lights passed by him, and the light was so strong that he couldn't open his eyes a little, and then he reached his destination in an instant.
In mid-air, a door suddenly opened, and countless white lights flickered inside, and then an embarrassed figure was spit out.
Yue Yi stumbled and landed on a tree, and then looked around carefully, the dark and damp forest appeared in front of him, it was still so familiar, the first time it was in the illusion, this time, it was a soul body.
He has always wanted to become the strongest and break through the prison world, but in the end, he went back and forth to this world twice in this way, should he be happy or sad? The purple soul in his body should be very disappointed, he is one step away from success, but he died so aggrieved without thinking of it, if he was not careless before, he may have become a sealer now.
Looking up at the door that was still shining in mid-air, Yue Yi knew that this gate would last for twelve hours, and if he didn't have time to come back, as soon as this door was closed, he wouldn't even have a chance to be reborn. sighed lightly, just a day's time, let's cherish it.
Yue Yi floated up again, and he saw several soldiers fiddling with a skeleton in the banished forest. Yue Yi fixed his eyes and saw that there was his general order next to the skeleton, which was a killer he killed in order to fake his death, and then threw his token aside, using a blindfold to confuse these reinforcements who came to find him, but he didn't expect that even if he died, he wouldn't even let go of the bones.
Yue Yi spun around in the banished forest for an hour, recalling those days of escaping, the game with those killers, successfully killing everyone, and the final winner belonged to him. But God didn't seem to favor him, just ate a fruit, and let himself be miserable, even if that fruit turned into purple jade and helped him cultivate the power that belonged to that world, he couldn't escape the fate of death, and then shook his head helplessly.
In the second hour, Yue Yi slowly floated out of the forest, and saw those soldiers who used to get along with each other, clinking glasses and drinking, hooking shoulders and backs, it seemed that they were very excited to take on this errand, are the current soldiers already so presumptuous, when he was a general before, these soldiers didn't even dare to let out a fart, who didn't honestly stand in a military posture.
On the third hour, Yue Yi came to the imperial city, staring blankly at his statue, there was no longer a scene of worship by all the people, there were only people on the street dismantling their statues, which seemed to be moved away to make some space for the narrow road.
On the fourth hour, Yue Yi arrived in the palace of the imperial city, and in the main hall, the lord of the country gave all the assets of his mansion to the beggar who was kneeling down to thank him, and the beggar cried a handful of snot and tears, it must be his ancestor who appeared to give him glory and wealth in an instant, and gave his assets to a beggar, is this an insult?
On the fifth hour, Yue Yi came to his mansion and saw that the lonely children who had been adopted by him were burning all his belongings, and there was nothing left, was he not good to these children on weekdays?
On the sixth hour, Yue Yi came to the council hall and saw several ministers pointing at their portraits, not knowing what they were saying, but their expressions were quite fierce, as if they had a common hatred.
In the remaining six hours, Yue Yi came to the observation deck at the highest point of the imperial city, quietly waiting for the sunset to set, a few birds in the shape of a "human", chirping, and then flew into the distance. Looking at the fiery red clouds, Yue Yi thought about his short life, not knowing what he had left behind, and he didn't know what he could leave behind.
For the first time, he returned to this world in the illusion and gave himself a chance to take revenge, but after revenge, he was bored and didn't know where to go. The second time, thanks to the blessing of the white robe, he has died, and his soul has come here, but he has become a person, and he feels that he is out of place with this world.
In this blink of an eye, the time of the day is almost up, a full moon hangs high in the sky, the moonlight here seems to be similar to the moonlight in Araki City, which makes Yue Yi a little nostalgic for the days of the prison world, although he fights and kills, but he also lives a very fulfilling life, at least he has a goal, that is, to keep getting stronger. It's just that there is not much time to take a look at Fu Mengying and the others anymore, hoping that Old Man Fu is in good health and Fu Mengying and the others can get rid of the illusion.
Yue Yi hadn't realized that a day could pass so quickly before, and his body floated up again, floating towards the Banished Forest.
Yue Yi stepped into the gate high above the Banished Forest, and then returned to the dark area in an instant.
"What did you see?" At this time, a black-robed figure suddenly appeared, and then asked coldly.
"Black robe, you're here too!" the white robe sighed softly on the side, it seems that this soul is in demand.
"I saw a group of soldiers in the forest recovering their lost property, soldiers stationed outside drinking and talking, and people building cities. ”
"Huh. The black-robed man sneered.
"I also saw the poor beggar of the lord of the kingdom rewarding him with his mansion, the children in the compound preparing for the bonfire, and the ministers discussing the beauty of the portraits. Yue Yi said everything he saw in one breath.
"Haha!" The black-robed man laughed wildly, then walked up to Yue Yi, tugged at Yue Yi's robe, and said coldly, "No, that's not what you see. ”
"Please don't speak with your conscience, accept it all calmly, those soldiers are insulting your bones, the soldiers outside are celebrating your death, the people are tearing down your statues, the lord of the kingdom has given everything you have to the beggars in order to insult you, the children you have adopted want to dissociate themselves from you, so they burn everything, and those friends in your court are nothing more than friends who stab you in the back. ”
The black-robed voice paused, and then continued: "Because you yourself died, everything you created is meaningless, you have tried so hard, but you can't make a single wave like a calm lake, so you have failed." ”
"Just because I'm dead, everything has changed?" Yue Yi asked.
"That's right, since the world doesn't treat you, then resent. The black robe said categorically.
"You choose, you are with me, you will erase all memories, enter the cycle and start anew, so that those who care about you will not be sad or missed, and your existence and their memories of you will be erased. The white-robed man looked at Yue Yi with a kind face and said softly.
"Come to me so that the world can remember you for eternity, and as long as it is a memory related to you, they will grow deeper and deeper over time, whether it is someone who loves you or someone who hates you. The black robe said confidently.
Yue Yi looked at the black robe on the left and the white robe on the right, thinking about which side to choose, rebirth or crossing. The silent dark area fell into silence again.
"Hey. Yue Yi sighed lightly, he returned to his body without hesitation, and he didn't care about the surprise of the white robe and the anger of the black robe.
"What a coward, he doesn't even have the courage to take revenge, and he is a man in vain. The black robe glanced coldly at Yue Yi who was lying on the ground, and then in the white robe's sigh, he disappeared into the darkness angrily, and the white robe took off his outer robe and covered Yue Yi's body.
He didn't choose to be reborn, even if his life was short-lived, Yue Yi didn't want to start over, leaving only a trace.
He didn't choose to go down, even if his life was cold, Yue Yi didn't want to worry about hurting innocent people.
Yue Yi finally chose to rest in peace, and all successes and failures, joys and sorrows, will disappear with it.
"I wish I had god-level opponents, I also have close friends, I wish I could take everything, I could let go of everything, I wish I was very domineering and gentle. ”
This is the only consciousness left in Yue Yi's mind, his body gradually froze, Yue Yi could feel that the last bit of weight belonging to himself gradually dissipated, his mind was filled with countless rays of light, and the scenes he had experienced in another world before were intertwined with light and shadow again, and appeared in front of him.
A group of soldiers carefully dug a pit around the perimeter, picked up the bones exposed to the air, and put them in order, the general ordered a bone to be held in his hand, and then buried it, found a large stone, and moved it to the front of the cemetery, which was engraved with "The Tomb of the Genius General Yue Yi", and the inscription "Eternal Soldier".
The soldiers stationed outside, holding wine glasses, one holding one howl and crying, wings, wings, why not return?
The people of the city put the demolished statue back into a newly built temple, and no longer let the statue be exposed to the wind and sun, but stood quietly in the temple, with countless incense burners in front of them, filled with incense that came to worship.
"I'm sorry General Yue, you look like him, I hope you can inherit his family business and then carry it forward. The lord's face was sad, and he stared blankly at the beggar who was kneeling on the ground.
The group of children kept burning all the things about Yue Yi, and then said angrily: "I'd rather burn them than let the rest of the people defile any of our general's belongings, these things, just continue to follow General Yue." ”
Several ministers discussed how to avenge General Yue, how could a hero be framed by someone, even if it was a rebellion, they would not hesitate, and then looked at Yue Yi's portrait, and the ministers' faces had a look of death.
At the last moment of Yue Yi's life, scenes flashed quickly, and he suddenly smiled with tears on his face, maybe this was enough, no regrets, a tear slowly slipped down.
