Chapter 333, Uncle's Apology
It was very late at night, and everyone was very tired after a few days of wandering, and they all fell asleep.
But I didn't feel sleepy, and I walked out of the room, sat in the moonlight, and suddenly wanted a glass of wine. Today's events echo in my mind. Whether it was my uncle's anger at the crown or the feeling of me borrowing the power of the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, it was all lingering in my mind and lingering.
My uncle appeared behind me, sat down, took two glasses of water in his hand, and placed one in front of me. I was stunned, looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Water?" β
He shook his head, took a sip and said, "It's wine." β
I was stunned, isn't there no wine for the Mending Heaven clan? Could it be that the uncle carried it with him? When did uncles start to bring alcohol with them? I took a sip, but found that it was clearly water, and immediately looked at my uncle with some confusion.
He smiled at me and said, "Komori, you've grown up, and I heard them say that you summoned the Xuanyuan Divine Sword. I wasn't surprised, because I knew that one day you would definitely follow Luo Yan's path, and one day you would surpass me. However, master, I have one last lesson for you. β
Uncle rarely spoke to me as seriously as he did today, and even when I was a child, he was always giggling, and I nodded and said, "Say it." β
The uncle said: "Xiao Sen, our life is like this glass of water, it looks like water, and it is light and tasteless when you drink it, but do you know why I say it's wine?" β
I shook my head, and the uncle continued, "Because I want to make it wine, but I'm actually tired, but I can't sleep, I want to drink, but there's no wine here." So I turned the water in my hand into wine, and it even had a spicy taste when I swallowed it. β
I was stunned for a moment and said, "Uncle, aren't you the spirit of Ah Q?" Or it is called painting bread to satisfy hunger. β
The uncle shook his head and said to me, "No, it's not a painting cake to satisfy hunger, but a spirit, a spirit that you lack the most." It is also a trace of truth that I realized after seeing Luo Yan, that is, my master, work so hard, live so tired, and finally go against the sky. None of us can choose our lives. It's like I can't be with the enchantress for the rest of my life, she can't get over the hurdle in her heart, and with the white birch thing, it's even more impossible for us. And you are the same, your mission against the sky can't be changed, so why do you have to live so hard? Wouldn't it be nice to let your already unfortunate life slowly shine? β
I was stunned, I never thought about what my uncle said. The uncle said: "Sometimes we know some truths, but if we really put it on ourselves, it is impossible to do it." Those who can do it are strong. β
The uncle stood up and glanced at the room of the enchantress, where Yuhan was with him, he turned around and walked towards his roomβ΅ when he got to the bottom of the corridor, he suddenly stopped, lowered his head and said to me: "Xiao Sen, there is one thing, the master wants to apologize to you." β
I was stunned, looked at the uncle standing in the corridor suspiciously, and saw his sad face, without his domineering on the battlefield, without the strong spell disguise, he seemed to have suddenly turned back into a declining ordinary person.
I heard my uncle whisper: "I always wanted to turn you into Luo Yan, but I forgot that you are actually Xiao Sen, I'm sorry, Bai Gu and I ignored your feelings." β
After the uncle finished speaking, he walked into the darkness, I was speechless, and when the uncle said "I'm sorry", I couldn't help but be moved.
There were trees in the yard swaying gently in the wind, making a "rustling" sound, I sat on the stone bench, looked at the water in the cup in my hand, raised my head and drank it down, and then shouted loudly: "Good wine!" β
Of course, when I shouted, I heard the black egg shouting dissatisfiedly: "You kid, be quiet, I want to sleep!" β
I laughed and walked back to my room.
The next day, the enchantress still hasn't woken up, the uncle has been by the side of the enchantress, what the enchantress lacks now is the will to survive, and I don't know when she will wake up.
Di Fei sent several groups of people out to search, and also explored the base of the rebel group they now know, but there was no gain, as if Xingmeng, Qixing, and Star City all disappeared together.
However, the hard work paid off, and finally a spy caught a scout hiding from a rebel group, this scout was still very hard at first, and didn't say anything, but after seeing me, I don't know if it was because I was too fierce, or because the impact of yesterday's war on them was too great, and he stammered and looked very scared.
I sighed and said, "Since you are so afraid of me, then tell me, where is Star City?" β
The scout heard my question, hesitated for a moment, and then saw me pull out the Demon Breaking Sword, and then said, "In a deep valley in the southernmost part of the secret realm, the Star Dream Patriarch has sealed it and is struggling to defend it. She arranged a powerful formation, only Lord Qi Xing can break it, but Lord Qi Xing has not appeared, Lord Star City ordered us to attack, we have been attacking for a long time, and then because the team sent to conquer here was completely wiped out, Lord Star City sent me to check. β
This news is very important, after letting this scout draw a route map, I took Dumb and Zhou Yi on the road first, the others stayed here, the uncle accompanied the demon queen, and the black egg was to help Yuhan.
After we hit the road, we walked for about a day, and we reached the southernmost part of the secret realm, and according to the route map drawn by the scout, we should have passed through the fog in front of us.
At this time, I happened to see two members of the rebel organization patrolling, I hid my figure, and heard a person say: "Lord Xingcheng has been angry these days, the attack here has not gone well, and the headquarters of the Mending Heaven clan has not been taken down, I heard that many brothers have been sacrificed." I don't know where to go. I think Lord Xingcheng is being forced to a dead end, and a few of us must think of a way out earlier, if not, we will sneak into the team over there, and it is important to save our lives. β
The other nodded and said, "But I won't tell you, I still have a piece of gossip here, and I don't know if it's true or not." I heard that Lord Qi Xing left the secret realm, and I don't know where he went, so it is likely that he has escaped. I guess it might be true, otherwise Lord Qi Xing wouldn't show up all the time, and Lord Xingcheng wouldn't be so anxious. β
The two patrolmen walked farther and farther, and the three of us walked out, I lowered my head and thought about it, if Qi Xing really ran away, then Xingcheng was really alone, and he either surrendered, but this was a major rebellion, and it would not be so easy to let him go. Therefore, he will definitely find a way to catch Xingmeng, and then use Xingmeng to blackmail Di Fei and us, and after controlling the Mending Heaven clan, he can be considered safe.
We are divided into two ways, Dumb and Zhou Yi will find a way to save the star dream, and I will go to Star City for a while. Anyway, there are no masters here in Star City now, and his own strength is not comparable to mine.
After we split up, I walked directly and swaggering to the door of the rebel camp, and the two guards at the gate were stunned when they saw me, and then said, "Who are you?" What are you doing here? β
I smiled lightly and said, "I'm Duanmusen, I'm here to find Star City." β
After hearing my name, the two guards thought for a while and said, "Duanmusen, you won't be the Duanmusen who killed King Li yesterday!" β
I smiled and said, "It seems to be me." β
The faces of the two guards changed dramatically, and they rushed in, and within seconds the whole camp began to howl, and soon a figure came out of it, and surrounded me in the middle.
But I still put my hands behind my back, pointed to the people inside, and said, "If you don't die together, let Star City come to see me." "The guards around don't dare to move, it's good to have a murderous name, to put it bluntly, it's a soldier who surrenders without a fight.
"Stop, get out of the way!"
A voice said majestically, the guards moved out of the way, and Star City walked slowly. I could see that this guy was very tired, his face was ugly, and his voice was a little hoarse, which must have been because he stayed up all night and didn't say yes.
"Duanmusen, you are so bold that you dare to go straight to my camp!"
He didn't say this cruel enough, because he knew in his heart that only this little guard couldn't hurt me at all. I laughed and said, "I'm just here to give you a way to live." β
He frowned, repeated my words, and then rolled his eyes, made a gesture of please to me, and led me into his tent.
The tent was quite chaotic, and after I found a place to sit down, Xingcheng immediately chased after me and asked, "What is the way to live?" Do you want me to surrender to Xingmeng? Hmph, that's something I can't do, and she's not going to accept it! β
In fact, I said this purely to fool this guy who is in chaos now, in order to buy time for Dumb and Zhou Yi to save people, as long as Xingmeng is rescued, this guy's life and death have nothing to do with me.
But now I still have to pretend to be chattering, and I said cleverly: "I see that you are usually very smart, why don't you understand the truth that a big husband can bend and stretch?" If you want to surrender, just splash all the dirty water on the body of the awakened person, and pick it up cleanly. Will Xingmeng really kill you? Even if he is demoted to an official position, or is beaten on the board, and suffers a little flesh and skin, at least his life is thin. Otherwise, if you try to rebel now, if you continue to resist, you will still die! β
