Chapter 165: The Lost Castle (20)
In a drowsy state, Aruka felt the hand around his neck quietly leave, and his body fell to the ground with a "bang", but with his current physique, he didn't feel pain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
With hundreds of points of intelligence, Aruka had a mind several times stronger than that of ordinary people, and he quickly woke up from his coma, and when he opened his eyes, he was in a space similar to the end, with cold and empty white light in all directions. The injuries inflicted on him by the white-haired Li Anran dissipated without a trace, and even the energy consumed by the divine thunder was also filled.
Bizarrely, there was another "self" standing directly in front of him.
"That's the power of mirroring? Curious, Aluka walked over to her alter self and looked at her. This is a sturdy boy, with a childish spirit between his eyebrows and eyes, black hair like a waterfall shawl, and a set of leather armor covered with wind and frost scars, and even the length of his hair is indistinguishable from the real Aluca, except that his whole body is dark and iron, not like a living person.
It's been a few months since she became a god punisher, and Aluka is completely different from ordinary people inside and out, but she hasn't really looked in the mirror to see how she is growing now. Take a look today...... The whole person has hardly changed. Even after Xinong became a god punisher, a strong man's momentum gradually emerged, and Uncle Hans, who had only experienced one game, looked forward to his life.
Strong in the hand, angry in the heart. Just like an ordinary person picking up a butcher knife, he is naturally more majestic than an unarmed person, and his temperament will also change due to the murderous soldiers. He is like a pool of deep water, as if it will not make waves even after 10,000 years.
Nature is like this, nature is hard to change. Although Aluka has always been reluctant to admit that he is anything special, let alone believe that he is a genius, he can only sigh in his heart at this moment: you are an outlier after all, if you are a genius, you are a genius among others, and if you are a waste, you can only be a waste among others, not a waste among ordinary people.
Aluka leaned in front of the mirror image and whispered, "Are you alive?"
Mirror suddenly opened her eyes and asked, "What do you say?"
Aluka touched her earlobe, circled it a few times, thought for a moment and asked, "Are you my reflection in the mirror?"
The mirror image still has the same face, and the words do not change: "What do you say?"
"Uninteresting, uninteresting. Arouca shook her head and laughed, "I've always scoffed at this kind of bridge. When the protagonist in the novel encounters some bottleneck, a master from outside the world emerges, pulls him into the dream mirror, and makes him face his true heart. What is the benefit of doing this? How can 'yourself' solve problems that you can't solve by yourself? What do you say?"
"You're right, I'm ...... too" Mirror said this, her face stiffened, with a hint of sorrow, "You're lying to me." ”
"If it is the heart, why agree. And I agree with my own natural pride and acquired brain-dead things, I still can't do it. Aluka patted Mirror Mirror on the shoulder, "Mirror Goddess, you may know the heart of mortals, but you don't understand me. ”
When the mirror goddess is exposed, she breaks away from the mirror image, and the mirror image closes her eyes again. His voice came from all directions, like a tidal wave that surrounded Aluka: "You think you are special, how do you think you are different from the rest of the mortals?"
Aluka replied calmly: "I'm not special, I am just me, there is only one me in the world, how can I be special?"
The mirror goddess was silent for a long time, and then asked, "Do you think you can face your true heart?"
Aluca smiled: "Since it is my own heart, of course I can face it." ”
"I can't help myself. The Mirror Goddess's contemptuous voice sounded, "Then you can take a look!"
Aluka could understand the contempt of the gods for mortals, but he didn't feel that he had anything to face, his nature was as indifferent as water, and he couldn't change his face before the collapse of Mount Tai, what could he not face? In his opinion, his heart was either like an old monk who did not care about the world, or he was like an innocent child, full of curiosity about everything. Although the two seemed to be contradictory ends, he didn't find it strange that they could coexist in him. Human beings are complex, and different situations have different faces, and it is impossible to generalize.
At this moment, he was very curious about what his true heart was like, so he took a moment to observe the mirror image in front of him.
I saw that the mirror image opened his eyes slightly, looked at Aluka in front of him a few times, and then infinite fear appeared in his eyes, like a wildfire, and immediately squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, shouting: "Don't ...... Don't come near me! Go away!"
Aluka was stunned for a moment, her mouth slightly open, but she couldn't speak, and she took a step back with a trembling body. The Mirror Goddess was also surprised, the reflection in the mirror was the power of the rules under his control, but there was a face to be inside, and there was a positive and a negative, and he would not know what the reflection looked like until the reflection appeared.
The Mirror Goddess asked, "What are you afraid of?"
Arouca didn't answer, but stared blankly at the mirror image crouching on the ground with his head in his hands, his gaze turning from surprise to doubt, then from doubt to anger, and finally to pity. Pity on whom? Pity yourself? Pity yourself, even the mirror goddess thinks it's a big joke.
The silence lasted for an unknown amount of time, and the Mirror Goddess spoke again: "You have nothing in your heart but boundless fear, but why...... You don't look like ......" After a pause, he seemed to understand something, "Hehe, I see. ”
Aluca's expression returned to normal, and he smiled, "Can you let me out?"
"This is my domain, and only here can I recover from your injuries, and it is just a matter of seeing your reflection as if I were going to trap you. The Mirror Goddess snorted coldly, and then said, "That's really the case...... In this way, you are not very special, I have met some people like you, but ...... It's hard to imagine you're so young. Forget it, what do you have to do with me, you can go. ”
The boundless white light rippled out, and Aluca's figure gradually blurred, and finally disappeared without a trace, and he didn't know where to go. In the prayer hall, the Goddess Mirror holds Her mirror in her arms and looks at the image in the mirror with the white-haired Sinoon.
The Mirror Goddess sighed lightly and said, "What a poor person. ”
The white-haired Sinong said suspiciously: "What is he afraid of? I don't think he is a warrior with a strong fighting spirit, but he is not afraid of heaven and earth, he can even talk and laugh in the face of a strange main god, and he can smile when he is dying, what can make him afraid?"
The goddess of the mirror image said abruptly: "That is his true heart, what kind of inner heart would fear himself? It is unimaginable, such a young man...... He is afraid because he sees everything in the world, including himself, as a foreign object, suspects everything, is hostile to everything, and ignores everything...... The reason why he is not afraid of death and me is because he does not care about his life at all. I'm afraid that in his opinion, even himself is dispensable, obviously just a mortal......"
The white-haired Xinonqi said: "Is there anything wrong with this? We are all believers in the Red Sect, and there are many things in this world that are more precious than life. I'm not afraid of your jokes, if I can exchange my life for a name in the history books, I will not hesitate to do it. ”
"You still don't get it. There was a hint of fear in the Mirror Goddess's voice, "He doesn't care about anything at all...... There is no position, no principle, no bottom line...... Even the devil has his own persistence and persistence, but he has nothing, and the whole person is like nothing. ”
The white-haired Xinon shook his head and said: "Don't be alarmist, if he doesn't care about anything, why should he live, just lie on the ground and wait for death? I think he still has the desire to survive, otherwise why would he leave here, it doesn't make sense at all." ”
The mirror goddess had a good attitude towards the white-haired Xinong, and she did not mean contempt, and replied indifferently: "The grass and trees don't know how to think, but they move with the flow of water. Although he knows how to think, even more than many living beings, he is just drifting with fate. I have seen some such people, and when there is a mountain in front of them, they go to climb the mountain, and when there is a sea in front of them, they go to cross the sea. In their eyes, life is like an endless journey, only knowing how to keep moving forward, but without any goal. ”
The white-haired Xinong thought for a while, smiled, and replied: "There's nothing wrong with this, there are no fetters, and you are free." ”
The mirror goddess snorted and said, "One day if you stand in his way, you will be slashed to death by his freedom, even if you are his biological parents, he will not frown." Don't you understand what I mean? This man is ruthless, unrighteous, fearless, and has only himself in his heart from beginning to end, and is so selfish that even the devil is ashamed of himself, will you be afraid of such a person standing in front of you? Anyway, he himself is afraid, and he has figured this out. But look at his reaction? He didn't react at all! Ordinary people are angry when they are scolded for being ruthless and unrighteous, and he is convinced that he is a ruthless and unrighteous person, but he treats it indifferently, which shows that he doesn't even care whether he is right or evil...... You...... You mortals are really ...... I'm!"
The white-haired Sinong seemed to find the mirror goddess's reaction interesting, smiled and shook his head back to the next room, sat down cross-legged against the wall, and said, "Let's leave him alone, even if he is heinous, it has nothing to do with us, let's find a way to get out of here first." ”
"Hmph, give you a little sunshine and you'll be brilliant. The mirror goddess sat down beside the white-haired Xinon boredly, "If it weren't for the fear that this kid would die at the hands of the ancient gods, and no one would have chatted with me for the rest of the years, I would have pressed you to death with one finger...... When I get out of here, the first thing I'll do is remove your head from your neck. ”
The white-haired Sinong smiled and said nothing, but he thought in his heart: All living beings are suffering, you think he is pitiful, who will pity you? He remembered the question of Aluca, what is the difference between gods and mortals? Tigers and cats, sharks and small fish, in the end, they all have to return to nothingness.
Even if you open up a new world outside the universe, you can only escape for a while, but you can't escape for a lifetime.
