There wasn't much else to notice in the cave. Green Lantern flew out of the cave, conjured a huge shovel in his hand, dug a hole in the ground with a volley, and placed the body of the green-robed monster in it, and then several shovels simply dug up the earth and covered it.

When it was finished, Chu Cheng also noticed that the young man was no longer in the cave. Green Lantern floated out and found the child sitting on a boulder not far away, staring in the direction of the dense forest where he lived.

Green Lantern landed beside the boy. The boy still stared blankly to the side, and did not say a word. Along the way, I got used to him chattering on the side, and it was a little unaccustomed to the sudden quietness of the ground.

After a while, he suddenly asked, "Grandpa, why did he ...... Suddenly you want to kill me? ”

Hal groaned for a while and said, "I don't know. ”

"Does it have something to do with that temple?"

“...... I do not know. ”

Chu Cheng actually guessed that eighty percent should be like this, but after all, he had no evidence and was not completely sure, so it was not a lie to say that he didn't know.

"But grandpa, he's a good guy." The young man became more and more dazed, his brows were tightly knit and he was puzzled, "He is a good person, and I am not a bad person, why do you want to kill me?" ”

He then thought about it again, and said, "Ah, is it because my grandfather told me not to go out, but I followed the leader, and I am a bad boy, so he is angry?"

But the chief clearly said that my grandfather asked him to pick me up? The leader is also a good person, and I am also a good person, so naturally he has no reason to lie to me......"

After a rigorous reasoning, he couldn't find any flaws at all, which made Chu Cheng laugh for a while.

At first glance, it may sound like it's all wrong, but if you really want to refute him, you don't know where to start.

"Actually, I've often felt that I should hurry to the temple that the chief said. It's like...... I don't know, it feels like I just know I should go there, and I don't feel well if I don't.

Now I feel more like it's over, as if that's how it should be. And another voice told me that if I went, I might know why my grandfather suddenly wanted to kill me. ”

The boy shrank back, as if the cold wind blowing in the woods made him uncomfortable.

"But I'm so scared. As soon as I thought of this, I suddenly didn't want to go, I didn't want to know the truth anymore. He sighed, "If only I could be as brave as you."

But I'm so useless, I don't have the strength of you, uncle, and I'm not as fearless as you. I...... I'm afraid of who I am now......"

Chu Cheng knew that this child was not deeply involved in the world, and it was the first time he tasted betrayal, and he was still the most important person in his life. He was disheartened, and if he didn't cheer him up, he might not be able to voluntarily follow him to the temple to find out. Although there is no pressure on Lantern Man to forcibly take him there, after all, it is not as convenient as you and me.

So Hal sat down beside him, and sat side by side with him on the stone.

"I have a story, would you like to hear it?"

He expected that the child would be interested when he heard the story, but sure enough, the boy was slightly diverted and looked at it curiously: "What story?" ”

"Once upon a time there was a child whose father was a pilot......

“...... What is a pilot? The teenager interjected.

"Hmm...... It's the person who specializes in flying airplanes - airplanes are vehicles that fly in the sky, like big birds. ”

"Ah, I see. Just like an uncle-like person. The boy said earnestly, "That must be a very remarkable person." ”

That's right, Hal was a pilot by profession. Along the way, he did take on the role of a driver for the teenager. In the eyes of the young man, the current Hal is a god-like figure, and a person like him must be very powerful.

"yes, just like me."

During the conversation, Hal actually showed a look of memory, maybe the dialogue touched his heart, but it made the story more flavorful.

“...... The boy was proud of his father, and would often skip classes to go to the airport to see what his father looked like when he took off. Until one day, he skipped class as usual and came to the airport, and watched his father's flight take off halfway, and Peng Di exploded in one fell swoop.

The plane turned into a flaming meteor that pierced the sky and fell, exploding into a hellish fire. The child's eyes widened and he watched this scene with his own eyes, watching his dearest and most respected father burn in the wreckage......"

The boy hadn't heard many stories, but he had already immersed himself in them, and his little face turned white with fright. His heart was pounding, and he only imagined that if he was the child in the story, and his grandfather was the father burning in the plane, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.

"And then?" He couldn't wait to know the rest of the story, but he was a little scared of the story, "Did that father survive?" ”

"Of course not."

Hal closed his eyes and shook his head. The boy let out an "ah", just as sad as if he had lost a loved one.

Since then, the image of that day has lingered in the child's mind. Every time he sees a plane soaring in the sky, every time he holds a joystick to get rid of the constraints of gravity, he can't help but think of that image in his mind - the plane is falling, and the bones are burning in the flames. ”

"Yes, if it were me, I would never dare to fly again in my life." The teenager said.

"But there is no shortage of children who follow their fathers when they grow up, and they become pilots despite their mother's objections." Hal continued, "That's where you are today, and what you see now...... This person you thought was fearless. ”

The boy was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly exclaimed, "Ah! The one you're talking about is ......"

"It's me." Haldau.

"But you...... How did you...... You're not ......."

He felt that the words were stuck in his throat for a long time but couldn't speak, and he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid?" ”

"Of course I'm afraid." Hal nodded, "But it's my job not to be afraid." ”

The boy was stunned, as if chewing on this sentence in his mind.

"These are the words my father left me before he left." Hal whispered, "I've been troubled by this for a long time. I never know if my father, the fearless man in my young eyes, the man who was the sky to me, was the last time he flew, when the instruments failed, when the joysticks failed, when the engines were spewing black smoke, whether he was afraid, or the end of extreme fear.

But then I realized that fearlessness is not ignorance of fear, on the contrary, only those who know true fear can be fearless. We're afraid, that's normal, that means you're sound and sane.

But only if you know the fear, but still face it, accept it, and touch all the challenges, that is the courage and the reason why we are strong. ”

Hal shook the ring on his hand, and the lamp ring bloomed with an emerald glow.

"It's not because I'm strong that I'm fearless." "It's because I'm fearless that I'm strong." ”

The boy was ignorant, and he didn't know how much he understood. But in a hazy way, he has fallen into this simple but familiar origin story to fans, and is deeply impressed by the hero's fearless personality.

It's like a child who sees a stirring episode on the TV screen for the first time, even if he looks back many years later, he will feel that the story was just ordinary, but he was also deeply shocked and burned to the ground.

At this time, the boy was a bit of a similar state, and the image of Green Lantern instantly rose a lot in his eyes. Invisibly, he was already thinking subconsciously that I should be like him...... No, it would be great to be able to learn one-tenth of the courage of this uncle.

Thinking about it like this, the depression in my chest has also been alleviated a lot.

"I've figured it out." He patted his ass and stood up, "Then I'm not afraid, let's go on." ”
