0334 The Way Back (Medium)
After noticing the non-existent hug, Leon couldn't help but turn his head sideways and glance at the little girl's situation with his peripheral vision.
Although the deceased little girl did not stop, the tears on her face had disappeared, her frightened expression had become calmer, her eyes that were red and swollen from crying had reopened, and her fear and sadness had quietly faded, and she was curiously looking at the road ahead.
"In the world of the living, flesh and blood are real, and the soul is untouchable, while flesh and blood do not exist in the dead world, only the soul is recognized, and the flesh becomes something untouchable."
After spreading out her palms and showing Leon the tear stains on them, Emma explained softly:
"The soul of the living is inseparable from the body, so in the dead world, it becomes something that almost does not exist, and only things such as will, belief, or emotion can have an impact on other deceased.
As long as there is no particularly strong desire to touch a deceased, we in the dead world are just a breeze with a fixed form. ”
After explaining the situation just now, Emma's senior looked at Leon slightly sideways, and earnestly instructed:
"In addition, your soul strength is not high, remember not to contact those who seem to be more special, such as those who are full of resentment, regret, or crying bitterly.
The emotions carried by the souls of these deceased are too strong, and after more contact with them, it will affect the stability of your soul, and it will still be uncomfortable for a long time after you get out of the dead world. ”
"I see."
Looking at Emma's senior, who was still a little pale, but still patiently explained the precautions to herself, Leon couldn't help but nod slightly, and then the right hand holding her hand was a little harder.
I want to be like Emma just hugged the little girl and helped her wipe away her tears, and by warming Emma's cold palms, I want to give her the courage to fight against the point of no return.
'Don't worry, I'm here'?
After faintly feeling his inner thoughts through the palm he held with Leon, Emma's eyes couldn't help but warm slightly, and then she took a deep breath, grabbed Leon's palm full of determination, and walked towards the black and white stone bridge not far away.
……
[Name: Black and White Bridge (Memories, Memories)]
[Appearance: An ancient clumsy long bridge paved with black and white bricks and stones, and every time you step on a new brick after getting on the bridge, you will look back on part of your life]
[Ability: Happy Memories, Painful Memories]
[Price: None]
[Archive: After the death of the Faceling, the master of the Dead Realm, he squeezed out all the memories of his long life, sorted them into black and white stone bricks according to happiness and pain.
These black and white stone bricks, which are constantly changing, have a completely different effect, after stepping on the white stone bricks, you will recall the happy experiences of your life, and after stepping on the black stone bricks, you will recall the painful experiences of your life......]
[Evaluation: Just like people can't know whether their next life will be happy or sad, no one can know whether this brick is black or white until they really settle down.
No one's life will shed tears forever, and no one's life can laugh forever, only if you have experienced all the joys and sorrows, can you really live this life]
[Penetration value: Same as the user]
Recall Player?
Habitually reaching out and touching the fence of the stone bridge, and after getting the information about the [Black and White Bridge], Leon couldn't help but look at Emma beside him worriedly.
If your guess is correct, the reading range of [Black and White Bridge] should be limited to the user's memory, and his memory of this world is only the last three years.
Although the body has just recovered after the illness, he began to run around to support his family, encountered a lot of ugly pickled situations, and had a lot of embarrassing memories, but because of the existence of his younger brothers and sisters, on the whole, he was barely happy, and although those pains were unforgettable, they still could not overshadow the warmth in his heart.
The only thing that made her miserable was that Anna suddenly coughed up blood in the middle of the night, hoping that she could hide her death so that she could continue to "cheat" on her pension, and because she joined the Clean-up Bureau, she was able to avoid this outcome.
So for myself, the effect of [Black and White Bridge] is actually not too difficult, even if I can't hold it, as long as I think about the current days, I should be able to barely cope with the past.
But Emma's seniors ......
After thinking about the big tree at the gate of the Treasure Flower Manor, Leon couldn't help but fall into a deep silence.
With her entire clan executed, and only her and her daughter left, even if she was lucky enough to step on the white stone bricks at every step, only those good memories would be relived and the final outcome would bring even deeper torment.
And Emma on the side obviously knew this, and she hadn't even really stepped on the [Black and White Bridge], just imagining the scenes that she might see after getting on the bridge, her lips had been bitten white.
"Or ...... Shall I go up first? ”
After a moment of silence, Leon proposed:
"I touched the fence just now, it seems that the bricks that someone stepped on will not change anymore, I can go up to the black and white bridge first and help you step on those white bricks, so that you should be a little more comfortable."
After hearing Leon's proposal, the pale Emma's lips twitched, as if she wanted to open her mouth to refuse, so that Leon would not bear the painful memories in her place.
But before she could open her mouth to refuse, a feeling of relaxation from the heart was already mixed with a thick guilt, and it went straight into Leon's heart along the palms of the two of them clenched together.
"Then it's decided!"
After squeezing Emma's senior palm vigorously and passing back the thoughts of 'it's okay' and 'I'm willing to do this for you', Leon took a deep breath and strode onto the black and white stone bridge.
White bricks.
When Leon's feet fell, the foggy deck of the black and white bridge suddenly became clear, and a white brick that could barely make an adult barely get off his feet appeared plainly and warmly at Leon's feet.
Thank you, thank you so much!
After squeezing Leon's palm hard, Emma, whose eyes were extremely soft, stood on tiptoe and tried to take a step forward, gently stepping on the edge of the white brick that Leon had let out.
"Brother, you're back!"
After landing on her toes, the world in front of her suddenly darkened, and Emma found herself standing in the dark alley, every muscle in her body that could exert force was beating wildly, and the exhausting feeling of exhaustion made her eyes blacken.
And in this world where both reality and flesh are overflowing with darkness, the only thing that still shines is the dim little oil lamp in the distance, and the fair, thin face of the girl who is full of surprise illuminated by the oil lamp.
