Chapter 68: The Night of Parting

The reason why the evil clan was regarded as an outlier by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there is a saying that the world's warriors will be punished when they see evil, in addition to the legends about the bloodthirsty evil clan that circulate in the dynasty, there is another reason, that is, the beliefs are different.

The Great Zhou Dynasty believed in the gods who were enshrined on the temple mountain, believing that it was the gods who formulated the laws, gave them life, gave them grains, and helped them open up the path of martial arts.

However, the evil clan believes in blood ancestors, and they believe that blood is the most valuable treasure of human beings, so most of them are brutal and bloodthirsty.

In fact, in recent hundreds of years, there has not been much intersection between the evil clan and the Great Zhou Dynasty, and most of them have not really seen the evil clan, and all the impressions come from the legends circulating in the dynasty. And they believe it.

So when Ye Chong said that he didn't believe in gods, Ji Luoluo was so shocked, and even faintly showed a hint of hostility, she took it for granted that you, as a citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, don't you believe in gods, do you believe in the blood ancestor worshiped by the evil clan?

It is said that hundreds of years ago, when the evil clan infiltrated the Great Zhou Dynasty for the last time, many of the people of the dynasty were alienated by them and became infidels.

Ye Chong didn't expect Ji Luoluo to have this reaction, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and said, "Where do you want to go? Faith is not black and white, if you don't worship God, you have to worship Blood Ancestor?"

Hearing Ye Chong's words, the caution on Ji Luoluo's face narrowed a little, but the moist eyes still retained a trace of vigilance, and asked, "Then what do you believe?"

Ye Chong stretched out his finger, pointed to his chest and said, "If I have to choose a faith, I believe in myself." ”

Then he flipped his hand outward, pointed to the starry sky above his head, and continued, "I also believe in this universe. ”

"I think the only law in this world is the law of the universe, and we are all a small speck of dust in the universe, and martial arts is the way for us to strengthen ourselves and make the dust shine here, it has nothing to do with gods, and it has nothing to do with blood ancestors and demons. ”

"The laws of the universe should be very mysterious and mysterious, just as there should be thousands of other worlds at the same time, besides the world we live in. He pointed to a bright star in the night sky and said, "Right there, there may be the same life as us, and the land under our feet is just the same star in the eyes of those lives." ”

"There are humans there too, there are all kinds of animals, and possibly ...... There will be high-rise buildings, vehicles wrapped in iron sheets and four wheels, driven by the material resources of nature, and faster than horses. ”

Ye Chong recalled the earth where he lived in his previous life, recalled his fate as a human in another world, and his eyes looking at the starry sky couldn't help but be full of confusion and awe.

At this moment, he is like a teacher who popularizes scientific knowledge to students in the classroom, but in the eyes of Ji Luoluo, he is a complete magic stick.

However, Ji Luoluo was attracted by the world he described, and although he felt that it was a fantasy, he couldn't help but continue listening.

I only heard Ye Chong continue: "That world may not practice martial arts, but they also have a way to make themselves shine under the laws of the universe, they can rely on their wisdom to create weapons that are no less powerful than martial artists, powerful enough to cross mountains and seas, and destroy a city thousands of miles away." From generation to generation, they have learned from the wisdom and experience of their ancestors, and have continued to create more advanced tools to help them understand and explore this mysterious universe. ”

"What they are like us is that we are all born small, but we can rely on our own efforts to make ourselves strong, and this is the law of the universe. This law is above everything, but it does not serve anyone or any force, and in the face of the universal law, there is no privileged class, no high or low. All beings are equal. ”

Ye Chong said something that had been in his chest for a long time under another starry sky that was completely different from his previous life.

Since he woke up in this world, the memories of his past life are like a treasure buried in his heart, which is the source of his other half of his soul, and he can only silently choose to adapt to everything in this world little by little. So that sometimes he will have some out of tune, those experiences and memories of his past life, are they real or illusory, or is he now in a dream?

Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, probably this is the feeling.

Of course, he was not immersed in this feeling of Zhuang Zhou's dream butterfly, he knew that the reason why he felt this way was just because of loneliness.

It's like being in a foreign land and not having friends to talk to. Whether it is his father Ye Chonglou or his friend Beitangmo, if they listen to him, they will probably think that his brain is sick.

And now, in his first autumn in this world, under the starry sky overhead, he took the opportunity to talk about his faith, and he vaguely poured out his knowledge of fate and the memory of his past life to Ji Luoluo.

Also through this outpouring of his heart, Ye Chong officially waved his hand to his former life to say goodbye.

And Ji Luoluo, at this time, was frowning and immersed in Ye Chong's description, imagining the world in his mouth, thinking about the laws of the universe in his mouth.

This kind of novelty and novelty is often the most attractive, especially Ji Luoluo, who has always been closed in the inherent worldview.

Like a little girl, she frowned at the vast starry sky, and her beautiful face revealed a bit of cute childishness under the glow of the moonlight.

She used to think that God was the most mysterious and great, but now, she also has some longing for the mysterious universe, the vast starry sky. She suddenly realized that in addition to gods, there were many, many more, and they were also very mysterious existences. And Ye Chong said that he didn't believe in God, and it didn't seem to be a fault.

If the god knew what she was thinking at this time, he would definitely be so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and then kicked in the face of Ye Chong, who dared to fool the dignified saintess.

"That's why you refused to come with me to the temple?"

After a long time, Ji Luoluo came back to his senses and looked at Ye Chong, "You actually don't like the high position of the temple, and you don't want to bow down to anything with the name of superiority, right?"

As a saint, Ji Luoluo is very smart, she can understand Ye Chong's sentence that under the laws of the universe, there is no privileged class, there is no high and low, and all beings are equal.

In his opinion, even if there really is a god, then God should be equal to all living beings, right?

This kind of shocking remarks and ideas gave Ji Luoluo a new understanding of Ye Chong.

Ye Chong didn't admit it, nor did he deny it, he just said with a smile: "I used to believe in a saying, it is called man will conquer the sky, but now, I feel that the way of heaven is impermanent, and it is difficult to understand it. But that doesn't mean I have to surrender to it!"

When he said this, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there seemed to be a light in his clear eyes that could compete with the stars in the night sky!

Ji Luoluo remembered his appearance at this time, then she got up, looked at Ye Chong and said, "Since this is the case, then I will no longer persuade you to go to the temple with me, you are indeed not suitable to be the guardian of the gods." As for your ideas, they are very novel, but I don't know if they are right or wrong, I just hope that you can rely on your fearless cognition on the road in the future, and you can face any difficulties. Finally, don't say that to anyone again, otherwise it may bring disaster to you. ”

Ye Chong nodded, heaved, and said, "Just treat it as a secret between us." ”

Ji Luoluo's heart seemed to tremble slightly at his words.

As a saint, she has always been held in a high position, as if she was born noble and unapproachable.

Similarly, she has always been in this identity, she has no real friends to talk about, and she often falls into loneliness, but she doesn't realize it, and only regards it as her mission.

And tonight, Ye Chong's conversation with her seems to have opened a window for her, so that the saint who is independent in the world can also put aside her identity and be equal to all beings, and can have friends like ordinary people, and then have secrets between friends.

It's just a pity that she and this friend are about to say goodbye, and in the next long road of human growth, there may never be an intersection again.

She will still be the high-ranking saintess in the future, and Ye Chong is just an ordinary martial artist of the Wei Kingdom, he gave up the opportunity to enter the temple, and he gave up the opportunity to intersect with himself again in the future.

It's like a slum boy who never gets a chance to touch a princess, just like ...... The toad can never soar side by side with the white swan.

Ji Luoluo, who was about to leave, actually had a sense of parting sadness at this time.

Some partings are for the next meeting, while some partings are indefinite.

"Who is Sadako?"

Ji Luoluo suddenly asked Ye Chong.

She remembered that when she had just come to the courtyard, he said that she was like Sadako. She didn't take it to heart at first, and at this time, maybe so that she could stay a little longer, to say one more word, to look at it one more time, to remember a little more, she wanted to make everything he said clear.

Then Ye Chong felt that his whole person was not good.

How could he tell this girl from another world about a character from a horror movie, and that character was a hideous and terrifying female ghost?

So he coughed awkwardly, with a sly look flashing in his eyes, and said, "I'll tell you the next time we meet." ”

"Next time we meet?" Ji Luoluo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

She naturally didn't think that they really had a chance to meet again, but if she took this as a thought, even if they didn't meet again, there could be a reason why they didn't easily forget each other.

"Okay, then you have to remember to let me know the next time we meet. ”

When Ji Luoluo said this, his tone was precious.

Ye Chong also knew in his heart that if he said goodbye tonight, it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to meet this woman who could confide his heart again, and it would be difficult to have such a night when he could remember his previous life.

He looked at the woman standing in the moonlight, with her long hair blown by the cool breeze of the autumn night, and her beautiful face with a touch of sadness, he suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I think our farewell still lacks some sense of ceremony." ”

"Ritual?"

Just when Ji Luoluo hadn't fully understood what Ye Chong meant, she saw Ye Chong approaching her side, and then stretched out his hands and gently grabbed her waist.

Ye Chong hugged Ji Luoluo.

And the Holy Maiden of the Temple, who had never been embraced by a man of the same age, had the strength to break free from Ye Chong's embrace, and even use her true qi to shock this guy who dared to violate herself.

But she didn't.

Because Ye Chong's eyes were extremely clear, there was no hint of aggression in them.

At this time, Ye Chong's height was slightly lower than Ji Luoluo, he leaned into Ji Luoluo's ear, sniffed the fragrance on her body, and said, "This can be regarded as a way to say goodbye between us, only this one!"

His breath spewed on Ji Luoluo's cheeks, whose face flushed and his heart beat much faster.

Then Ye Chong let go of his arms, took a step back, and said, "Cherish." ”

"You too. Ji Luoluo's face was like a peach, and her beautiful face was a little more beautiful, and then she turned and jumped on horseback.

Xiaobai roared softly in the courtyard, and then suddenly spread his wings, soared into the sky, turned into a white rainbow in the night, and went away.

In the courtyard, Ye Chong stood in the wind, looking at the white rainbow that was gradually disappearing, and seemed to hear a girl's sigh.

He raised his arm, looked at the wooden sword he had been holding in his hand, and whispered softly, "Is there really no goodbye?"
