Chapter 89 Chapter 89 Who Said That Only Those Who Stand in the Light Are Heroes?
Although he was still struggling in his heart, his footsteps still approaching little by little still exposed Cheng Xuanji's last choice.
Suddenly, as if resigned to fate, Cheng Nuxia no longer entangled, strode to the side of the bed, then lay on the bed with a quilt, turned her back to He Huanyu and said, "I'm asleep, good night." ”
It's just that the not-so-smooth voice reveals that she is not as calm as she appears.
He Huanyu smiled, but did not poke it, but took a bed blanket in the wardrobe and covered it on his body, and then silently turned off the light.
For a moment, the room fell silent.
Even the sound of breathing was deliberately suppressed by the two of them, very soft, almost inaudible.
I don't know how long it took, Cheng Xuanji in the dark opened her closed eyes, and then asked softly, "Xiao He, have you slept?" ”
"Well, no." He Huanyu didn't open his eyes, and asked directly, "What?" Can't sleep? You don't recognize the bed, do you? ”
"Not really." Cheng Xuanji shook her head slightly, and suddenly remembered that He Huanyu couldn't see it in the dark, so she said, "I just suddenly remembered the movie just now, and I couldn't sleep a little." ”
"Huh? Are you still struggling with that? It's a movie, don't think too much about it. He Huanyu was a little speechless, it's just a movie, as for it?
"But Xiao He, you said, why did Wang Li abandon that child in the end?" Cheng Nuxia asked faintly.
"How do I know that? You have to ask the director......" He Huanyu sighed and said, "Maybe you don't want your child to have a mother like herself." After all, a thief's parents don't have a good reputation. ”
"But didn't Wang Bo sacrifice to protect that money in the end?" Cheng Nuxia asked, "And the policeman said it, it's not ashamed." ”
"How can it be so easy to say? Although it is said that heroes don't ask where they come from, more often than not, a stain is a stain, and they will not only carry their own lives for a lifetime, but also implicate their children. Saying that, He Huanyu sighed again, "Don't think about it, go to sleep, you have to take the exam at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
"Woo, then Xiao He, you tell me a story." Cheng Xuanji turned around, her eyes shining.
"Tell a story again." He Huanyu said helplessly, "What do you want to hear?" ”
"It's okay, preferably about heroes." Cheng Nuxia's eyes burned.
"But most of the hero's stories don't end well." He Huanyu said, thought for a while, and spoke, "Then I'll tell you the story of an ordinary girl who grew up and fought in the void." ”
As he spoke, He Huanyu pondered for a while, organized his vocabulary, and continued to speak:
"In the far west, there is a kingdom buried under the desert called Shurima. In the southern desert of Shurima's former site, there is an ordinary little girl named Kesha. Although the environment in which she lives is harsh, the love of her parents gives her warmth. During the day, she plays and frolicks with her friends; At night, she looks forward to her future.
But the good times didn't last long, and Kesha's fate changed in the summer when she was ten years old.
On that day, Keisha used the dagger her father gave her on her eighth birthday to save a herd of goats that were supposed to be sacrificed for the sacrificial sacrifice, but unexpectedly caused immeasurable disaster.
"The earth began to tremble, and the void was awakened.
"A crack suddenly appeared in the ground, and the crack grew larger and larger, and then swallowed the entire village.
No one in the village, Keisha or her parents and friends were spared.
Keisha wakes up to find herself trapped underground, unable to move, and in the darkness of her eyes, save for a few survivors crying out for help weakly.
A few days later, all her friends and family were gone. Suddenly, Keisha spotted a purple light in the darkness, and she realized that she was suddenly able to move.
Following the purple light, Keisha walked forward, finding bits and pieces of food, as well as water bags scattered among the ruins, and rotten peaches.
Following the strange purple light, Keisha found herself in a huge cavern, which was like hell filled with a large group of creatures of different shapes, some like insects, some like giant pythons, and some like praying mantis......
Soon, the creatures spotted Keisha as well, and a monster about her size pounced on her, and Keisha gripped the dagger to fight the monster. With all her might, Keisha finally killed the monster, but accidentally fell into the abyss that led to the depths of the cave......
"There are more monsters under the abyss, and every day after that, Keisha is fighting, surviving, and finding her way home.
"In the past ten years, Keisha has transformed from a little girl who does not know the world to a fearless survivor, from the prey of those void creatures to a hunter.
She finally broke free from the Void and returned to Shurima, where she continued to fight the Void monsters that tried to invade. As a result, she found that her body had also evolved strangely in order to be able to better fight those void creatures. Because of this difference in appearance, the local people do not regard her as a hero, but as a monster......"
"Huh? These people are so bad. Cheng Xuanji said in disbelief.
"Actually, I can quite understand, like a ghost with a blue face and fangs, even if it is protecting you, you will think it is scary." He Huanyu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Moreover, this is actually a story. Keisha doesn't change anything because of other people's opinions, she has her own beliefs and is not influenced by the outside world. ”
As he spoke, He Huanyu paused, looked at Cheng Xuanji, and said, "This is also the purpose of me telling you this story, life is your own, don't be too influenced by others." Even if something bad happens, try to live. Because living is not for others, but for yourself. Your existence is meaningful only if you are alive. ”
Yes, this is the meaning of He Huanyu telling this story to Cheng Nuxia.
There are still about two months left before Cheng Xuanji jumped off the building in his memory, and He Huanyu doesn't know when the first fuse was.
He could only do everything he could to save this young and fragile life.
Perhaps Cheng Xuanji's life was desperate at that time, but death was not the solution to the problem.
Only by living can there be hope.
"Huh? Why do you say this all of a sudden? Cheng Xuanji was a little stunned, she didn't know that the bad things he said in He Huanyu's mouth actually meant something else, and thought that she was talking about her parents divorce, "Don't worry, Xiao He, I know." And there's Xiao He here, I won't do stupid things. ”
As she spoke, Cheng Xuanji suddenly leaned her head close to He Huanyu's ear and said softly, "I like Xiao He the most." ”
I like Xiao He the most.
I don't know if it's because of these seven words, or because of the hot breath that Cheng Xuanji exhaled when he spoke, which made He Huanyu's ears itch.
He Huanyu's heart was touched for a moment.
He was even more determined to save the girl.
"Not only now, but also in the future, no matter what happens, we must try to live." He Huanyu also turned over, stared at Cheng Xuanji in the dark, for a long time, and said, "Don't pay attention to what others say." To be alive is to have hope. Only by living can you be your own hero. ”
"Huh? Be your own hero? Cheng Nuxia was a little stunned.
"yes, be your own hero." He Huanyu repeated, "Look at the Wang Bo in "No Thieves in the World", although he is a thief, but at the last moment, he is also a hero, isn't he?" If you look at Keisha again, although she has evolved into a monster in order to better fight the Void monsters, and she is also not recognized by people, it does not affect that she is her own hero, and she can defend the people and things she wants to defend......"
"However, if you are not recognized, are you still considered a hero?" Cheng Xuanji couldn't understand what He Huanyu meant for a while.
"It depends on how you understand the word hero." He Huanyu said, "In my opinion, as long as you can defy difficulties and move forward towards your goal, you can be considered a hero." Don't be shackled by other people's eyes and opinions, you don't have to be in the spotlight to be a hero. ”
(Yes, who said that a hero is a hero who stands in the light?) Who says a champion can't come from the Void? )
"Oh......" Cheng Xuanji didn't seem to understand, she still wondered why He Huanyu suddenly said this to her.
"Well, forget it." He Huanyu also got Cheng Nuxia's confusion, thought about it and said, "Don't think about it, go to bed quickly, you have to take the exam tomorrow, it's really late." ”
"Oh, okay, good night to Xiao He." Cheng Xuanji nodded obediently and closed her eyes.
This time, she didn't turn her back again, and even leaned in the direction of He Huanyu, getting closer to him.
"Good night." He Huanyu looked at Cheng Nuxia with her eyes closed, and said silently in her heart, I hope you will be safe in the future.
……
He Huanyu woke up very early.
Before six o'clock, the sky was still bright, and He Huanyu woke up.
Glancing at Cheng Xuanji, who was still smiling at the corner of her mouth and seemed to be dreaming of something, He Huanyu got up lightly to wash up and then went out.
He was going to buy some toiletries for Cheng Nuxia, after all, he had been in this house for a short time, and he couldn't find a lot of things, so he couldn't let the little girl wash with the things he had used, and the two hadn't reached that kind of relationship with each other.
Probably the people of this era are still relatively diligent, and as soon as it was dawn, the small shops near the community had already begun to open for business.
I bought toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels and other toiletries in the shop, thought about it, He Huanyu brought two more bundles of noodles, and made an appointment for a few eggs, passing by an old man's fried fritter stall, and didn't forget to buy a few fritters.
even met the "stay-at-home mother" on the opposite door on the way home, and when she returned from grocery shopping, she borrowed two green vegetables and a green onion from others.
After all, when he went out, He Huanyu deliberately took a look at the kitchen, in addition to the lack of ingredients, there was no shortage of pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
Yes, He Huanyu plans to give Cheng Xuanji to eat below.
Although He Huanyu has always been lazy, he still has the skill of cooking a bowl of Yangchun noodles.
