Text 9. Reasons for Persistence (6)
"Full force? I see. Lin Yufei was still lying there and agreed in a low voice. After a moment, he burst out laughing under his breath. The laughter was low, hoarse, but very flamboyant and presumptuous, and he had never laughed like that in front of anyone and at any time. Then with that smile, he said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "And then we will all disappear, right?" As you said, what is destroyed by the power of destruction, the concept of existence will also be erased. My sister and I will be forgotten, right? After that, who in this world will remember me and her? Mr. Ge, Senior Brother, Senior Sister, Senior Brother Ye, or ...... You?"
His laughter grew louder, with a hint of crying in his hoarse voice, a great despair, but surprisingly no resentment. Tears had already poured out uncontrollably, flowing all over his face. In this desperate laughter, the clouds were silent without saying a word. He had said all he had to say, the matter had been decided, and he was ready to endure all the treatment of the person in front of him, including hatred, anger, disappointment, and despair. He has lived for more than 2,000 years, and this is not the first time that he has done this.
However, Lin Yufei did not react again. He was still lying there, staring blankly at the roof, laughter and crying had stopped, but there was still unspeakable despair in the air. Yun also suddenly lost his mind, as if the person in front of him had become the child on the head of Xiaoyun Mountain fifteen years ago. Obviously extremely disappointed, obviously looking forward to the person in front of him staying, but he would rather be silent with tears than say half a word to stay, just because the other party has already made a decision, so he no longer tries to change.
There was a soft "click" at the door, much quieter than the sound of the door opening. Yun was still alert and looked at it subconsciously. A tanuki with gray and black fur came in from the cat hole in the door, walked directly to Lin Yufei's feet, and jumped to his chest twice. Lin Yufei's eyes relaxed, and he slowly stretched out his hands and hugged the cat to his chest. The cat was very well-behaved, lying down, raising its head and licking Lin Yufei's chin, and meowing.
Yun also remembered that Lin Yufei went home a few days ago, and he did say that he had brought a cat with him. He put away his defensive thoughts and smiled silently. But the cat suddenly turned its head to stare at him, and there was hostility in its eyes. This hostility was so obvious that he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart after living for more than 2,000 years.
The phone rang suddenly, breaking the silence in the living room. It was Lin Yufei's mobile phone on the coffee table - except for Lin Yufei and Ye Fei, the two brothers, the rest of them were not used to using this modern tool, and would rather use the transmission note.
Lin Yufei didn't react, he lay on his back and hugged his cat, as if he didn't hear the mobile phone ring. However, the phone rings stubbornly, as if it must wait for someone to pick it up. Finally, Yun couldn't bear it anymore, stepped forward and picked up the phone, connected it clumsily, and put it to his ear.
"Senior Brother Lin?" Zhang Zhongjian's voice came from the other side, and he was vaguely heard asking someone: "Is there anything wrong with this thing? Why didn't it respond? ”
"How is it possible, it's obviously clear. Ye Fei's voice came, "Hey, hey, what's wrong with you, second senior brother?"
"It's me. The cloud was silent for a moment, and finally spoke.
"Teacher?" Zhang Zhongjian's voice came again, "Teacher, bad news." The girl was gone again. ”
"I see. Yun also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "Let's come back first." ”
The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, as if he was surprised that Yun was not angry or impatient. It took a few seconds for a voice to come, and it was still Zhang Zhongjian: "I know the teacher, let's go back." ”
The phone hung up. Lin Yufei was still lying dumbfounded, his mobile phone was very loud, and Yun was sure that he heard it, but he didn't react at all, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, and he didn't show the slightest concern or disappointment.
"Teacher. Xinlan's low voice came from behind her, and she had already cleaned up. Yun didn't know how much she had heard, and he didn't bother to care.
"We don't go out, pack up our stuff. Yun also said lightly, at this time, even he felt a little lucky. "Take a break and go find someone tomorrow. ”
Xinlan didn't move: "Is it all like this, teacher?"
Yun was still stunned for a moment, and did not look back: "What do you mean?"
"Stargazer," Xinlan's voice didn't fluctuate, "is it all like this?"
"Yes, that's the way stargazers do. Yun Huan's voice returned to his previous indifference, "Our goal is unimaginable to ordinary people, if we want to persevere, how can we not give up?"
Xinlan didn't speak. A few seconds later there was a slight sound of wind, followed by the sound of a door opening and closing in a certain room. Because he didn't look back, Yun didn't know what the expression on Xinlan's face was. He looked at the sofa again, where Lin Yufei was still lying motionless. The cat was gone.
When Zhang Zhongjian and the three came back, Xinlan was the only one in the living room. She sat cross-legged on the sofa, but instead of cultivating as usual, she held a sword and carved something on it with a cinnabar pen. The other two swords were set aside, and one of them had some strange patterns already painted on it. Lin Yufei and Yun are still not there. When she heard the door open, she just glanced up, then lowered her head and went on with her work.
"Are you alone, junior sister?" Zhang Zhongjian asked as he sat down on the sofa, "What about the teacher and junior brother?"
"They're all out there. Xinlan replied while carving, and there was no emotion in her voice: "There is one on the roof." ”
All three were stunned for a moment. Ye Fei was a little puzzled and said, "What are you doing on the roof if you have nothing to do, isn't it good to rest in the house?" Zhang Zhongjian and Ge Tongshan glanced at each other, their eyes showed a look of understanding, but they didn't speak. "I'll go see Senior Brother Lin. ”
"Then I'll go too. Ye Fei also followed, stood up and was about to follow Zhang Zhongjian, but was pulled by Ge Tongshan: "Boy, come with me, I have something to say to you." As he spoke, he turned to Zhang Zhongjian: "Leave this to me, you go and see that." ”
Zhang Zhongjian nodded slightly, turned around and went out, but Ye Fei was dragged by Ge Tongshan to a bedroom. The moment the bedroom door closed, Ye Fei's voice could be faintly heard: "What's the matter, it's mysterious." ”
When the bedroom door closed, Ge Tongshan let go of Ye Fei, took the lead in sitting cross-legged on the bed, and stretched out his hand to pat in front of him: "Boy, sit in front of me." There are some important things that your teacher and senior brother want me to tell you. ”
"I have a name, don't always be called a kid!" Ye Fei protested as he sat opposite Ge Tongshan, "What the hell is going on?"
"There's no time left. Ge Tongshan's voice suddenly became serious, "Since the creator of the source has appeared, it is estimated that this time the matter will come to an end." Judging by the situation just now, your teacher is estimated to have a showdown with Lin Xiaozi, but it doesn't seem to be going too well. Now that he is not in the mood, your senior brother wants to comfort Lin Xiaozi, so you have to settle down by me, an outsider. ”
"Mr. Ge, you are so serious, it makes me feel very bad," Ye Fei felt a little uneasy in his heart, so he had to laugh twice, wanting to make the atmosphere more relaxed, "Is it because the big war is imminent, are you afraid of my stage fright?"
"In the face of the most direct battles, there is usually power, or people who think they have power, are not afraid. You've been through a lot of battles lately, and at most it's just a little bigger, and no one will worry about your intimidation. However, although I am an outsider, I am relatively close to stargazers in the Daomen, so I know more. What your teachers and brothers are worried about is your concern in this world. For you, the most direct thing at the moment is your little girlfriend. ”
Ye Fei's face changed, and he couldn't smile anymore: "Didn't the teacher also say that maybe we can persuade her to come to our side?"
"You're a smart boy, I don't want to say anything more. Ge Tongshan said lightly, "From this butterfly incident, can't you see that she has begun to lose control? The power of the concept is not something that ordinary people can control, let alone the root concept." The fact that we didn't find her this time is very revealing, either she couldn't control her power anymore and went into hiding, or she was found and taken away by Mo Li. But either way, we can't afford to hesitate any longer. ”
"Impossible! Can't we teach her the method of self-control?" Ye Fei became anxious, jumped to the ground, walked back and forth rapidly, and said incoherently: "Senior brother, doesn't senior brother also have the concept of creation? Why can't you let senior brother teach her the method of control!"
"The scale difference is too big, Old Man Yun has already said it. The method of extinguishing a bonfire and extinguishing a sun is completely different, and you are so good at researching that it is impossible not to be unclear. Ge Tongshan said lightly, "You have already messed up." Looking at the situation just now, Lin Xiaozi estimated that it was the same. ”
Ye Fei fell back and leaned weakly against the wall. His mind was much better than Lin Yufei's, and of course he understood that what Ge Tongshan said was the truth. There was a helpless look in his eyes: "Once it gets out of control, it's irretrievable?
"It's hard. Especially the first time it gets out of control, if there is no one around to help, it is almost inevitable that there will be no help, not to mention that the scale of the girl's ability fragment is so large. Ge Tongshan looked at Ye Fei lightly, "Moreover, who told you that your senior brother has never lost control?"
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment and looked up at Ge Tongshan. "That guy's words shouldn't be disgusting with me. Ge Tongshan muttered: "Okay, don't care what happens to him in the future, let's take care of the present." I'll just tell you some old things about your elder brother. Maybe it can help you make up your mind. ”
