Chapter 45: I'm Sorry
The opening sentence of the three-character scripture recited when I was a child is: At the beginning of man, nature is good.
And everything that happens in the picture at this time interprets to a certain extent: at the beginning of man, nature is evil.
When the bear children are young, there is no distinction between good and evil, they just think it will be interesting to play with something, and when they grow up and understand some truths from books or from life, they will form a mature distinction between good and evil.
The footage continues.
It didn't end because of Gu Yuan's inner emotion.
A child in white short sleeves appeared in the picture, his body was so thin, but his eyes were very determined and angry.
He rushed to him, pushed away Zhao Miao, who was holding a lighter, and tightly protected the cardinal on the ground in his arms, pulling the stones on his feet.
"Zhao Sanshui! Xu Can! You're the big baddies! The childish voice yelled.
It's Gu Xiaolei.
Gu Yuan turned his face and looked at Gu Xiaolei behind him.
And Gu Xiaolei looked a little dazed, as if he didn't remember this matter anymore.
Xu Can suddenly flew and kicked Gu Xiaolei to the ground.
Gu Xiaolei lay on the ground, but he supported his body, and with one hand, he tightly protected the dying cardinal in his arms.
"Gu Xiaolei, you beg to fight!" The fleshy Zhao Miao rushed up, rode on Gu Xiaolei's body, and hit him on the head with his fist.
But even so, Gu Xiaolei did not raise his arm to protect his head, but stuffed the cardinal into his clothes.
"You beat me, I'll tell my brother! My brother hammered you to death! Gu Xiaolei yelled.
Hearing this, Zhao Miao, who was riding on Gu Xiaolei, seemed to be intimidated, he looked at Xu Can, Xu Can also flinched a little, maybe it was Gu Yuan, who was a few years older than them, who could cause them "devastating" damage,
"You...... You are nosy, why did you let Gu Yuan beat me? Although Zhao Miao had a hard mouth, she still quickly got up and hid a few steps.
"If you beat me, my brother will hammer your head to pieces!" Gu Xiaolei was obviously full of bags, but he could still say viciously.
"Let's go, let's go......"
"I'm not playing with you anymore! You know that let your brother bully the small! ”
Gu Xiaolei slowly got up, patted the dust on his clothes, looked at the cardinal with half-open eyes, and cried out in distress.
"Little bird, don't die......"
Holding the cardinal, he walked out of the community, all the way to the park, and slowly, put it on the grass.
For Gu Xiaolei at this age, it seems that this is all he can do.
After staying for a while, the cardinal flapped its wings slightly, Gu Xiaolei was overjoyed, he looked around, picked up the cardinal again, and sent it farther, then he breathed a sigh of relief and walked home with small steps.
Gu Yuan gently touched Gu Xiaolei's back, and suddenly felt proud of having such a younger brother.
Although the second uncle and aunt are also busy on weekdays, they have never fallen behind in the education of their children, which is why Gu Xiaolei has a kind heart and always treats the world gently.
At this moment, the crimson picture in front of me was like a lake wrinkled by the breeze, rippling with light lines, and slowly dissipating.
The red mist that enveloped them slowly dissipated, so at the same time, the sound of the cardinal was heard in my ears.
"Little Lei, thank you...... I'm glad to meet you. ”
The voice grew fainter.
"Cardinal, cardinal......" Gu Xiaolei burst into tears.
He had just taken two steps forward, but was hit by a red ball of light, Gu Yuan hurriedly rushed forward, Gu Xiaolei leaned back, fell into his arms, and fainted.
"You...... What did you do? Gu Yuan was not angry, just simply curious.
He knows better than anyone else.
It is impossible for Cardinal to hurt Gu Xiaolei.
"The last thing I can do for him, clear the memory of me." The cardinal's voice grew fainter.
"You...... Ge Fei said that she just took you back, and she might not kill you...... That's right! Descend the stupa! Gu Yuan seemed to grasp something, and said excitedly, "You can go to the pagoda to receive the baptism of the Buddha's light, you won't die!" ”
Only this time, Gu Yuan didn't get any response.
Until the red fog completely cleared, and on the ground was the corpse of a bird, motionless.
He dragged Gu Xiaolei and rushed to him, his lips trembling slightly, a little unacceptable.
He turned his face to look at Ge Fei, who had disappeared from the bow in his hand.
"It's useless, when she empathizes, she has already chosen death."
"For ...... Why? ”
"She's just a D-class transformation demon, and to expand the realm of empathy, which can only be barely mastered by a C-level soul demon, to exert empathy is to overdraw her own origin." Ge Fei's tone was finally no longer calm.
Gu Yuan understood.
It was the cardinal's own death.
Even if she still has a chance to live.
"Why do you want to do this......" Gu Yuan's head was buried very low.
Ge Fei stood behind Gu Yuan.
She couldn't answer that question.
But Gu Yuan himself figured it out.
"In Xiao Lei's heart, Cardinal is just an innocent girl, his good friend, but Cardinal killed Zhao Miao and Xu Can, even if she dies, she has to let Xiao Lei know that she did this for a reason, she needs to let Xiao Lei see with his own eyes what Zhao Miao and Xu Can did."
Gaffy frowned.
"However, she has erased Gu Xiaolei's memory of her."
"It doesn't matter." Gu Yuan shook his head and turned his face to look at her, "For Cardinal, it is enough to be able to show his heart in the end, so that Xiao Lei can forgive her, and be able to remember that dusty memory, if you forget, it will be a matter for the future." ”
Ge Fei shook his head anyway.
"I don't understand."
"Of course." Gu Yuan carried Gu Xiaolei on his back, "Because she, like Xiaolei, is very pure." ”
Instead of speaking, Gaffy fell into thought, and in a moment, she reached out and picked up the cardinal's corpse, and followed.
Gu Yuan carried Gu Xiaolei on his back and walked in front.
The pace is slow.
"Cardinal's body, I'll find a place to bury it." Gaffy said.
"Hmm."
"Do I need to tell you where it is?"
"No, you don't." Gu Yuan shook his head, "This is their story, and it has nothing to do with you and me. ”
Gaffy stopped talking.
Gu Yuan suddenly spoke.
"Is the Cardinal wrong?"
Ge Fei was silent for a moment and said, "A bear child strangled a bird, does this bear child deserve to die?" ”
Gu Yuan was silent.
"What's more, she's a demon." Ge Fei continued, "The Terran Demon Division only protects the Terrans. ”
"But cardinals don't damn!" Gu Yuan suddenly stopped and looked at Ge Fei.
"Don't let empathy affect your emotions." Ge Fei said slowly, "Your state of mind has changed, if you were to deal with this matter instead, what would you do?" Help the Cardinals kill them? Or just let it go? ”
Gu Yuan shook his head.
He didn't have an answer.
At the very least, there is no answer at the moment.
In the long river of life, Gu Yuan believes that one day, he can think of an infinitely close to the right approach, an infinitely close to an accurate answer.
In the past, when I saw "I was born to be human, I'm sorry" I only thought it was an Internet buzzword.
Now, Gu Yuan felt that this sentence was very heavy.
Until the entrance of the community, Ge Fei did not go in, but looked at Gu Yuan.
"Tomorrow will be red romantic."
Gu Yuan looked at her with doubts in his eyes.
Gaffy holding the cardinal's corpse.
"Sacrifice the demon spirit."
