It's been three months since the sword fighting competition.

Yang wandered aimlessly in various places for three months. The lonely figure seems to have been abandoned by the world.

Dark clouds rolled, thunder bulged. The pouring rain was pouring and the machines were hitting the ground.

Pedestrians on the road all rushed to escape the rain. Yang didn't run, he still walked aimlessly, and the bewildered rain shrouded the city like fog.

This city is like Yang's heart, so confused that it doesn't know where it is, so confused that it doesn't know where it will go.

A beggar pulled his tattered and dirty clothes to his chest, and then shrank as far as he could into the corner of the wall under the eaves. This would try to keep the rain from splashing on his body, and he almost tucked his neck under his knees with his hands folded. It was cold, and the wind carried the moisture of the rain, which made him shiver.

In the white mist-like rain, a figure slowly appeared. He walked to the beggar and stood silent, looked into the rain, and said, "What are you living for?"

The beggar shrank his head and looked around, and saw that there was no one else, so didn't he really ask himself? ”

After a long time, Yang said as if talking to himself, "What are you living for?"

The beggar suddenly became angry and scolded: "I said that you are a psychotic and you should go to take medicine quickly, come here to chirp a crooked bird? Lao Tzu is unbearable, but it is your bird business? I want to know? Okay, take a hundred yuan." ”

The beggar was relieved after scolding, and wanted to retract his head between his knees. But a hand reached over, and at the same time held a hundred-dollar sheet soaked in the rain.

The beggar was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled. Carefully took the banknote with both hands, after all, the wet banknote is easy to rot, and then quickly put it into the chest. He's going to go in and dry the bills with his body heat, and then he's going to have a big meal.

The beggar stood up and said as he walked: "Why? In order to be well fed and clothed, in order to get ahead, in order to live a better and more chic life." ”

"Yes, in order to be able to live better, thank you," Yang still looked at the rain as if in a dream.

The beggar froze at his feet and grinned, "It seems that it is really a nervous disease." But it's none of my business, I can eat and drink for a few more days. ”

After another month, Yang came to the new city. The night market here is very lively and noisy, and it usually doesn't calm down until four or five o'clock.

"Hey, Miss, don't go, play with my brothers. I'm sure you'll want to die・・・・・・・ hahaha. A couple of thugs surrounded a young girl, with lewd and lewd smiles on their faces, while from time to time they pushed and touched the girl in the middle with their hands.

"Please, let me go. The girl squatted on the ground in despair, clasping her hands on her knees and pleading.

"Look at what you're saying like we're bad guys, ahahaha, we're just ・・・・・・. ”

"You guys. A voice interrupted the thugs.

A few thugs suddenly looked at the sound and saw the lonely young man.

"Hey, boy, don't be nosy. One of the thugs had a grim look on his face as he flung out a knife and skillfully played with it a few times.

"What are you living for?" Yang said blankly.

"What did you say?" exclaimed a curly-haired man pointing at Yang.

"I think this kid is underwhelming, so I'll beat him down first. After one of the thugs finished speaking, except for one thug who grabbed the girl by the hair, the other five thugs began to surround him.

Eight seconds later, five people lay on the ground, two of them unconscious, one had his mouth exploded, one was crying with his hands under his crotch, and the other had his leg bone shattered.

Yang walked up to the gangster who was grabbing the girl's hair and still asked blankly, "What are you living for?"

The gangster's legs began to tremble, and he pulled out a knife and said in a panic: "Don't come here, come here again・・・・・・ ”

Finally, the thug threw the knife at Yang and ran backwards at the same time, taking advantage of Yang's evasion. The girl also ran out of the alley in a hurry.

Yang turned to look at the five people on the ground: "What are you living for?" ”

Curly muttered in his heart that he was a nervous disorder, and said cautiously in disbelief: "Of course it's for money, for happiness, isn't it just to live happily for a lifetime?"

Yang was silent for a moment, then turned and walked out of the alley.

Curly spat on the ground: "It's unlucky, I actually had a nervous breakdown." ”

I walked out of the alley and arrived on the street of the night market, which was full of people. The girl walked up to Yang and cried, "Thank you." Thank you for saving me. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn'・・・・・・・ have survived. ”

"What the hell are you living for?" Yang said as he looked at the panicked girl.

"Why do you ask that, you asked those scoundrels the same way, why?" the girl wondered.

"I, I don't know now, what I'm living for. Yang said blankly.

"And what did you live for?" the girl asked for some reason.

Yang painfully closed his eyes, the muscles on his face trembled, and said in a hoarse voice, "To protect my mother." But now she ・・・・・・・. ”

The girl's heart ached, and she already knew the following words, so she lowered her head apologetically and said, "I'm sorry." ”

But she immediately raised her head and was convinced: "I am also a young person, and I have not experienced so many accidents. Maybe those who have been through the vicissitudes of life will know. But my dad said that if a person really doesn't know what to do, doesn't know what to do, doesn't know how to do it. Then you have to do something to keep yourself active, otherwise the person will slowly sink down over time. Maybe as my dad said, you'll slowly find the meaning of your life. ”

"Really? Thank you. After Yang finished speaking, he was leaving.

"My name is Chen Xia. Where are you going?" Chen Xia hurriedly said.

"I don't know. Yang said blankly.

"Well・・・・・・・ if you don't know where you're going, if you don't know what you're supposed to do, then can you come to work in my father's hospital? He's a well-known doctor and a philosophist, and maybe he can help you find the meaning of your life." Chen Xia said in a panic.

A month later, on the roof of the hospital, the sun was blowing and the wind was still looking blankly at the sky.

A middle-aged man in a doctor's gown walked up to him and looked at the red sunset on the horizon. It seems that both of them are attracted to the red glow, but in fact, neither of their hearts is in the red glow.

Half an hour later, Dr. Chen was still looking at the horizon: "It's been a month since I came here to be a security guard, are you still used to it?"

"It's still the same. ”

"Actually, I was like you eight years ago. But now I'm content with my life. Sometimes loving life is also responsible for yourself. ”

"I don't understand. ”

"I have a way to find the meaning of life quickly. While you'll find it here too, the time may be years, maybe ten, maybe longer. But if it takes longer, you'll regret it. ”

"Did you use that method to become what you are now?"

"It's not. If you're willing to accept this approach, I'm willing to tell you about it. ”

"Good. Yang nodded.

"What if it kills you, do you still have the courage to accept it?"

"I have never lacked courage, so I can come out of the mediocrity, I am not afraid of death. ”

"Not being afraid of death has nothing to do with courage. You are not afraid of death because you have no concern, and you will understand when you have concern. Tell me about me. Actually, I came from another world, where there is my home, there are people I want to protect. In one battle, my stubbornness led to the death of 120,000 soldiers. I committed suicide with guilt, but after I lost consciousness, I realized that I had come into this world. My soul came to this body, but the soul of this body had died in a car accident. ”

"I was as lost as you at first, like the walking dead. The doctor thought I had amnesia caused by a concussion. You must know that people with amnesia may not be able to recover their memories for the rest of their lives. But this body wife did not give up on me. She always smiled and told me about those good memories every day. She always smiled and said contentedly, she was satisfied that I had survived. ”

"Later, after I slowly fused the memories of this body, I gained the knowledge of this era. For two years, I left her and my daughter looking for a way back. I want to use the knowledge of this era to defend my homeland. I left them alone, and she didn't complain about it. Two years later, I found that I couldn't part with them. Maybe that's what it means for me to be reborn in this world, and I'm going to protect them for the rest of my life. ”

"Sure enough, you didn't doubt what I said, because you didn't care about anything anymore. ”

"I want you to go to my world, and maybe you will find the meaning of your life. You can say I'm selfish, but can you promise me two things?"

"If what you're saying is true, if I find what I'm looking for, I'll do it for you in exchange. Yang was not moved, and said expressionlessly.

"You'll find it, and soon, because I already know who you are and what kind of person you are. ”

"What two things?"

"Number one, there, you're me. I want you to take my responsibility on your shoulder. Second, help me protect my family. ”

"Can I go now?"

"No, I can't. It will be two days later, when the Moon is very close to the Earth, and the geomagnetic field will be greatly affected. Of course, you can also think about it again in these two days. Because you only have a 30% chance of going to that world, once you fail, your body will be crushed by space, and you will die. ”

"I hate waiting, and instead of taking a decade or more to understand, I wish I understood right away. ”

Two days later, on the hill on the outskirts, two figures stood in the bright moonlight.

Dr. Chan said, "I will give you my most important memory, and you should not resist in your consciousness. Also, it's hard for your body to survive in that world, so I'm going to merge that world's body with your current body. ”

"Let's talk about it first, I'll only help you if I find what I need. ”

"You're going to find it, I'm sure, and it won't be long. ”

"So, I'm going to get started. Dr. Chen's lips began to move, and the moonlight in the sky seemed to be condensed by a convex lens, forming a cone and casting it into the sun. The tip of the cone was concentrated on Yang's body, and his body was overwhelmed by the light because the converging light was too strong.

Dr. Chen's words came from Yang's consciousness: "Young people, it is not the brave and heroic who die for others, but the real brave who lives for others. ”
