Chapter 118: The Edge of the Soul
"My child, wake up quickly, the boat that picks us up is coming. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Lu Sheng seemed to hear his mother calling for him to wake up from his sleep.
He replied with a happy smile on his mouth before he opened his eyes, "Mom." ”
Within a second, he sat up suddenly, for he felt the sound in his ears so real that it didn't feel like he was dreaming, but the blinding light in front of him made his newly opened eyes close tightly, and he saw nothing.
His wrinkled eyes narrowed into a slit, and through the light, he gradually saw the world clearly. He was amazed to find that the world in front of him was a pure white and immaculate world, white grasslands, white rivers, white flocks, but everything he could see had faded away from the colorful colors, leaving only white.
He hurriedly looked at himself and found that his hands, feet, and travel robe had turned white.
What's going on? What's going on?
Lu Sheng tried to think back to what had happened before, he remembered that when he fainted money, it was Lingzhang who trapped him in an enchantment full of magical energy, so could the world he came to now be an illusion created by Lingzhang?
"Don't sleep, my dear, the boat that picks us up is coming. The woman's voice came from behind Lu Sheng again, Lu Sheng turned his head, and saw three people sitting on a bench, they were the same as a scene and a thing in this world, they were also pure white without any color.
But I don't know why, after Lu Sheng turned his head to look at them, his heart suddenly trembled, and a stream of acid gushed out.
There are not only three people sitting on the bench, but also a family full of warmth and love.
A young man of thirty years old, dressed in a military uniform, looked energetic and had a smile like a big boy on his face. Beside him sat a woman of his age, beautiful and dignified, and although she was dressed plainly, her every move showed the temperament of a noble lady.
There was also an eight-year-old girl lying in her arms, and strangely enough, the little girl did not look like she came from the same family, or even less like they were of the same class compared to the two adults.
The girl was very thin, so thin that only skin and bones remained, and the clothes she wore were full of holes, and her hair was astringent because she had not been washed for a long time.
It should have been pitiful, but Lu Sheng actually had feelings of envy for the girl. Is it because Lu Sheng felt the warm smile that the girl's parents threw at the girl? The girl looked so happy.
The woman threw an apologetic smile at Lu Sheng, probably because she thought that waking up the child had woken Lu Sheng, but she turned her face to her daughter, as if she had thought of something, and said, "If you don't wake up, the uncle you have been waiting for will have to leave here." ”
The girl hurriedly rubbed her eyes, sat up, then opened her huge eyes and looked at Lu Sheng, and said, "Uncle, you have finally woken up, you have been lying here for a long time, and you have been lying here before we came." ”
The girl's voice was sweet, like eating candy.
Seeing the girl looking at him very sincerely, Lu Sheng couldn't help but smile at her, then leaned down and asked in a low voice, "Excuse me, little princess, do you know what kind of place this is?"
The woman frowned, and her daughter said, "Uncle doesn't know what this place is?"
Lu Sheng nodded.
The girl glanced at her mother, who gave her an affirmative look, and then the girl looked at Lu Sheng and said, "This is the edge of the soul." ”
After speaking, the girl deliberately pursed her mouth, as if this sentence said something to her sourness.
Lu Sheng asked the girl again: "What is the edge of the soul?"
The woman said encouragingly to her daughter, "It's all right, speak up bravely." ”
The girl nodded, looked at Lu Sheng and replied, "This is where the dead come from." ”
Lu Sheng frowned for a moment, he thought that the girl was joking with himself, but looking at the pure white of the world here, there is no doubt that this is not in the real world, so what the girl said is right.
Looking at the girl's sincere eyes, Lu Sheng was almost certain that the girl hadn't lied to him.
"How come, how come I'm dead?" Lu Sheng muttered to himself.
The girl said, "Uncle, many people didn't believe that they were dead before, and they said the same thing as you. The girl suddenly frowned: "No one came to pick you up?"
Lu Sheng shook his head.
The girl sighed: "You are so pitiful, I don't have parents, but you see, after I died, my parents came to pick me up." ”
"So... Lu Sheng looked at them, and finally understood why the little girl looked so different from them, and then the woman hugged the little girl tighter, and the man also stretched out his arm, just stopping the woman's shoulder.
"Maybe you're not dead yet?" said the girl suddenly.
"Not dead?" Lu Sheng and her parents both looked at her in surprise.
The girl came out of her mother's arms, stretched out her little hand to caress Lu Sheng's face, and said gently: "It is impossible for people to live without their parents, they did not come to pick you up, maybe because you are not dead." You just happened to break into here. ”
Her parents stood up, looked into the distance, and said to the girl, "The boat is coming, we should go." ”
As soon as Lu Sheng heard that the girl was leaving, he was inexplicably sad, although Lu Sheng looked at her with a smile, his eyes were already red, and he said to the little girl, "It's time to say goodbye!"
"Uncle, you have to be obedient, by the way!" the little girl suddenly remembered something: "You can't stay here, souls are not allowed to stay here, and since no one has come to pick you up, you should go back." ”
After the girl finished speaking, she followed her parents and left.
Lu Sheng looked at their departing backs, and how warm that back looked.
The father is holding his daughter and telling jokes to his mother, causing her to laugh while her daughter waves goodbye to her newfound friend.
Lu Sheng thought that maybe on the other side of the sea, his parents were waiting for him.
But then again, maybe the girl was right, Lu Sheng didn't die.
But if you want to get out of here, where is the exit? Lu Sheng remembered that the girl mentioned a port called Huilun Port. Maybe he can find an exit to the port of return.
Lu Sheng was a little reluctant to wave his hand to the girl again, and at this time, from the boat that picked up the girl, more than a dozen people ran down, they passed by Lu Sheng, and ran in the direction behind Lu Sheng.
The girl was far away and said loudly to Lu Sheng, "Follow them." ”
Lu Sheng nodded, so he turned around and ran with the men along the endless prairie.
