Gu Bei didn't pay much attention to Patsy's solicitation.

It's just a casual move.

It is true that Patsy's talent is very good, and being able to serve as the senior secretary of the Gattuso family shows that his ability is not bad, if he joins Everything, he will be able to become a member of Gu Bei's right-hand man in a few days.

But Gu Bei didn't care very much.

Or rather, he doesn't care about a lot of things.

Gu Bei found that he had changed.

Since when?

Maybe it's from the beginning of entering Kassel, maybe it's after a day of freedom, or maybe it's after sealing up your strength.

The more he went through this ordinary and fulfilling life, the more he felt that his heart was becoming more and more peaceful.

The pace of his life is getting slower and slower, and he doesn't have the same sense of urgency as he did when he was growing in strength.

Now turn your head and think about it, from being discovered by Lu Mingfei's true identity, to the showdown with Lu Mingze, to Tokyo and Changbai Mountain, and then a year-long trip, as well as the collision with Odin in the capital and New York.

His experience in the past few years seems to be too hasty.

It's like being pushed by something.

Urging to improve strength, urging the establishment of Everywhere, urging the planning of the five great families......

It's like a fly without a head, doing everything and doing nothing.

Now that I think about it carefully, Gu Bei has actually been living the life he hates the most.

He was originally a lazy person, but he just hoped to live a good life and have a stable career, and then his wife and children would be hot.

But there are some things, Gu Bei doesn't know why, so he instinctively does it.

In fact, there is not necessarily a need for everything in this world, but Gu Bei feels that people need a means to be able to compete with dragons and half-breeds, so he established Everywhere Pass.

But even now, the practice of Qi has spread to about 40 percent of the ordinary people in the Heavenly Dynasty, but the existence of all the people is still not necessary.

In fact, Eri has nothing to do with him, it's just that the girl looks at him too coldly, like a shabby rag doll.

Does Gu Bei love her?

To be honest, Gu Bei didn't even know what love was, he should have a kind of liking and pity for Eriyi.

But loving this kind of thing is really too luxurious for Gu Bei.

In fact, it doesn't matter to Gu Bei whether Chu Zihang can find his father, whether Kassel can slay the dragon or not has nothing to do with him, and whether Lu Mingfei can inherit Lu Mingze's power is none of his business.

Even if this world is really going to be destroyed by the Black King, then what difference does it make if there is more of him and less of him?

But Gu Bei didn't think about these things.

By the time he reacted, these people, these things had already come to him, and he couldn't break free, or ...... He didn't really want to break free.

】

In fact, Gu Bei is just a lonely person.

He wants to live a peaceful life, but he is afraid that the people around him will leave one by one.

If he has nothing, no magic, no Eight Wonders, no power, then the most he can do is to give up everything around him and start an ordinary and ordinary life again.

But this fucking god just gave him hope to catch it all.

So he could only keep chasing, being driven into this river of fate.

Come to think of it, he's not that kind of person in the first place.

So he became the shopkeeper over there, he let Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze go, and he improvised about Chu Zihang and Odin.

Even Eri, he always said that it was time to go and see Eri, but he always didn't go.

Is there no time?

How can it be!

Even if you don't have time, it's not so difficult to see each other.

He's running away.

Aside from the strange arts, aside from the Eight Wonder Skills, he is just an ordinary person, and it is normal to want to escape when he encounters problems.

He sealed his power, and his life in Kassel was full and simple.

He was actually looking for an answer.

He is not the kind of Chu Zihang who picks up a knife and slashes people when he is indecisive, he is not a leader like Caesar who was born with a mission, he does not have the strong heart of Fingal who endures humiliation and burden, and he is not the rotten person like Lu Mingfei who has a clear understanding of himself.

He is not Zhang Chulan who will do anything to achieve his goals, nor is he Wang Ye who has the righteousness of the world in his heart, nor is he Zhuge Qing, the pride of heaven whose talent has been suppressed.

Gu Bei is Gu Bei, but what did Gu Bei come to this world for?

Establish a Metropolitan Connection? Kill the Dragon King? Saving humanity?

No kidding......

Gu Bei is just a mortal, if it weren't for the Eight Wonder Skills given by God, then he would probably still be on the kang with his wife and children.

Whether human beings are destroyed or not is a matter of hanging him!

What did you come to this world for?

It's not the first time Gu Bei has thought about this problem, but the more he thinks about it, the more confused he becomes.

There doesn't seem to be a shortage of him in this world, fate has long written the end of every life, Lu Mingfei always wants to ascend to that throne, and Chu Zihang will also find his "dead" father, just like the rebellious Caesar has never broken free from the surname of Gattuso in his life, and Nuo Nuo, who pursues freedom, lives in the script written by the Chen family until he dies.

Gu Bei is like a pillar standing in the river of fate, he changed the flow of the river, but he couldn't change the river, and the river eventually flowed to its original ending.

So, what is the purpose of coming to this world?

Gu Bei walked past the lamplight, and before he knew it, the light around him also dimmed, Gu Bei came back to his senses, looked back, and found that he didn't know when he had walked out of the scope of the academy and walked to the mountain behind the academy.

The Kassel Academy is located halfway up the mountain, and a road around the mountain passes in front of the door, and you can see the coniferous forests of the valley rise and fall in the wind, like black waves.

Although the Kassel Academy is called the Hilltop Campus, it is not on the top of the mountain, but halfway up the mountain, and below the mountain is the train station and the valley campus.

Gu Bei's current location is not far from the top of the mountain.

There were no vehicles on the mountain road, let alone pedestrians, the moonlight was sprinkled down, illuminating only one turn sign after another, circling upwards in circles, Gu Bei inadvertently glanced at the sign in front of him: "Please pay attention to bear infested."

"Wow, there's a bear!"

Gu Bei sighed, but no one answered, let alone any wild Slavic strong man jumping out with a bear and giving Gu Bei a live performance.

At the end of the winding mountain road is a stone monument blocking the road, where Gu Bei stopped.

The Bugatti Veyron stopped on the side of the stele, the high beams turned on, and the snow-bright beam pierced the distant sky like a sword, also illuminating the entire mountaintop.

The topography of the mountain is flat, there are no trees, it is overgrown with grass, and a spring gushes out from under the rocks, forming a small laketop lake, which overflows and flows down the mountain, forming a snow-white waterfall, and the faint sound of water comes from the bottom of the mountain.

"There are no stars."

Nono stretched, leaned back against the backrest, and looked at the sky.

Nonsense, Norma's weather forecast says that there will be sleet tomorrow morning, and it must be cloudy tonight, and there will be stars when hell there is.

Gu Bei slandered, but he was not surprised by Nuo Nuo's existence.

Although he sealed most of his strength, the physical fitness brought by the Liuku Immortal Thief was unchanged, and naturally he would not notice that there was someone on the top of the mountain.

Gu Bei sat casually on the front cover of the car, not taking the fastest sports car on land into account at all.

"Tonight's heroine didn't go to the banquet, why did she run to the top of the mountain to see the stars?"

Nuno was wearing a dress, and it was not difficult to see that the heroine was in the middle of the banquet.

Nuo Nuo didn't answer Gu Bei's words, but asked rhetorically: "Go to the spring to soak your feet?" ”

After she finished speaking, she jumped out of the car door wearing only her socks, and walked through the late autumn meadow with one foot at a shallow foot, following the sound of the rushing water to the edge of the spring lake on the top of the mountain.

The only source of light was the Bugatti headlights behind her, the water reflecting the water and the surface of the water as if it were plated with a layer of silver.

Nuo Nuo chose a rock and sat down, and saw Gu Beizheng looking her up and down curiously.

"See what?"

"I'm thinking about ......"

Gu Bei's bad taste was committed.

"Do you have to wait for me to turn around before I can take my socks off?"

Nono grimaced at him, took out a pair of delicate scissors from the small bag beside him, and cut the stockings along the ankles, revealing his white feet.

Gu Bei's heart was not turbulent, but there was a kind of disappointment that the prank failed.

"It's cold, you have to kind of it!" Nono said.

"Hehe, it's okay if I don't invade the cold and heat!"

Gu Bei also chose a rock to sit down and take off his socks.

The two people who met unexpectedly looked at each other and slowly put their feet into the spring.

The cold creeped into the skin from every pore and rushed along the back of the crest, and Nono shivered in unison.

Not only that, she stared at Gu Bei's face stubbornly, wanting to see what interesting expression changes on Gu Bei's face.

But it's a pity that Gu Bei is really cold and hot, even if he jumps directly from the crater of Mount Fuji into the Greenland ice sea, he will be fine.

This time it was Nuno's turn to be disappointed: "Are you really cold and hot?" ”

Gu Bei was also rare to be naïve once: "Lying to you is a dog." ”

"Meaning—"

Nono didn't hold on anymore, rubbing his hands on his arms repeatedly, trying to press down the goosebumps that came out.

But fortunately, the cold is only temporary, after the beginning of the cold has passed, the feet gradually warmed up, and all the blood is heated to the feet, and Nuno feels a little comfortable.

"So what? Didn't Caesar say tonight that he was going to make up for your last birthday party? How did you get out? ”

Nono pulled out one foot, one foot in the pool, the other on the shore, his chin resting on his knee, his eyes following the moonlight in the pool, sparkling.

"I know Caesar is very thoughtful, but it feels strange, all the people are invited to see how good we two are, I have to accept his kindness, and I have to keep smiling when his little brother wishes me happy and sees me as Caesar's rightful fiancée, there is no funny person in the whole party, and ...... Today isn't my birthday either. ”

As she spoke, she suddenly glared at Gu Bei with awl-like eyes.

Well, Gu Bei should indeed take the blame for this matter, after all, it was indeed him who celebrated the anniversary...... and Chu Zihang, the two brothers messed up the party.

Gu Bei didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only say dryly: "Happy birthday." ”

"Roger." Nono said in a hurry.

The air was silent for a while, the wind of late autumn blew gently, and the cold weather made the insects chirp a lot less, Gu Bei was very suspicious that the insects that were still "squeaking" outside in this kind of weather were not sure that they also had bloodline or something.

Hey, half-breed bugs.

Gu Bei's thoughts were boundless, and Nuo Nuo over there suddenly asked, "What about you?" Didn't you say there was an experiment tonight, so you didn't go to the banquet? How do you have time to come here? ”

Nuo Nuo's eyes were like a knife, and Gu Bei suddenly didn't know how to answer.

After all, finding an excuse to escape from someone else's banquet, and being caught by the banquet heroine who also escaped from the banquet, how do you want to catch the horse.

Gu Bei paused, and suddenly asked without a tail: "Do you like Caesar?" ”

This is not the first time Gu Bei has asked Nuno this question, Gu Bei had asked the same question when he was on Ben Parker's mission before, but now, this question has a different meaning.

In fact, from a certain point of view, Nuo Nuo is a person like Gu Bei, she knows that her life is now to escape from the dark cage of the Chen family, but is it really what she wants to spend her life chasing freedom?

She can completely obey the arrangement of the family, and live honestly and honestly for the rest of her life, but now she has gambled everything on the word freedom.

And it's not because she wants to, it's because she has to struggle.

Just like Gu Bei, who was pushed by fate into the thousand-year-old war between half-breeds and dragons, he could have escaped far away, or he had never had only one way to go.

Nono and Caesar are lives locked by fate.

It can be said that Nono's self-righteous freedom was realized through Caesar, and Caesar's thought freedom from the family's control was also achieved because of Nono.

But if the two are not together, perhaps both parties are truly out of the control of the family.

But in this way, neither of them can be free to break free from the shackles in this life.

In this love based on fate, what is Nono's attitude towards Caesar?

"I like it, why do I want to be with him if I don't like it?"

The same question, Nono gave an answer that was not given last time.

Gu Bei understood what Nuo Nuo meant.

Freedom is her own choice, but Caesar is also her choice, and she will take responsibility for her own choices, rather than gambling everything else in her life because of an obsession.

Now Gu Bei feels that although Nuo Nuo's strength is not good, he is indeed stronger than himself in terms of faith.

Much stronger.

"Do you know why Caesar and I were able to choose each other in the first place?" Nuo Nuo asked, and didn't let Gu Bei answer, "Because of attraction." ”

"The two of us are the same people."

The same in Nuo Nuo's words is different from Gu Bei's meaning.

"We are destined to come together in this life."

"It's fate."

The girl's eyes reflected the moonlight, she didn't have any special abilities, but she wrote her own ending.
