Chapter 15: If there is salvation in this world

If there is salvation in this world, Shen Chi thinks, then it should be what she looks like.

............

At the age of eight, little Shen Chi felt that this winter was exceptionally cold. It was early winter, and the snow hadn't fallen yet, but the ice seemed to have reached his heart.

It can take a lifetime to climb from a rotting mire to the top of a high ladder, but it only takes a moment to fall from the clouds to the gray dirt.

The cold wind of early winter blows mercilessly, cutting through people's cheeks like sharp blades.

He knelt quietly in front of the grave in the courtyard that he had made with his own hands for his mother, and his little face was all blank.

The tombstone was simply made of a single wooden plank, very simple, and the names of the people who were sleeping quietly in this land were engraved on it, and although the handwriting was immature, it was extremely deep, as if the words wept blood.

In the end, he was the only one left, he had no father, and now even his mother has left.

He used to be surrounded by the stars and the moon, but it was just a mirror, and the appearance was like a bubble, which burst when he poked it.

Those who once flattered him are now either shunning him, or... Add insult to injury.

Shen Chi looked at the tombstone, his eyes were red, but his tears had long since dried up, and his delicate little face in the past was all dusty, covered with dirt and stains.

He doesn't believe it anymore, his mother always said so beautifully, immortals are the salvation of all living beings in the world, they love all living beings, they are compassionate, they are compassionate.

If this is what their so-called immortals really look like, then why can't they give their mother and son a glimmer of light when they fall into the abyss?

Shen Chi lowered his head, his little face looked gloomy, as if there was a cloud that could never be removed, overcast and cloudy, and the wind and rain were coming.

The little hands were tightly clenched into fists, Shen Chi's body trembled slightly, he didn't believe it anymore!

.........

"Hahaha, look, yo, isn't this the little boy who was high up in the past?"

"Why are you so depressed now?"

"Harm, do you still call him a son? I'm not afraid that the head of the family will be angry, this is just a wild seed!"

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot if you didn't remind me!"

Shen Chi looked coldly at the group of teenagers mocking him unscrupulously, his face full of malice.

"Yo, do you still think that you are the invincible young master of the Ling family?

Those young people were all people who he always liked to flatter in front of him when he was the young master of the Ling family, although he didn't like them, but he was usually not very disgusted, but because of his cold nature, he didn't get too close to them, and he always refused their flattery.

It's just that Shen Chi's expression was gloomy, he didn't expect that after he lost power, this group of people would have such faces.

"This kid, I've been unhappy with him for a long time, and he usually puts on a stinky face and looks down on people. ”

"Yes, if it weren't for the face of his identity, I would have wanted to beat him up a long time ago. ”

"It's never too late to beat him up, hehe!"

The group of teenagers approached Shen Chi with ill intentions and wanted to beat him up in groups.

Shen Chi was originally younger than them, although the Ling family had invited a martial arts teacher to teach him before, but after all, he was small and weak, but after resisting a few times, he was severely beaten and his nose and face were swollen.

"Hahaha~" After the group of people finished beating, they laughed and walked away, leaving only Shen Chi lying quietly on the ground.

He lay quietly on the ground, his eyes staring blankly at the gloomy sky, the pain in his body was far less than what he felt in his heart, as if his whole heart was pierced with holes, and there was a large invisible hand that kept clenching his heart until it suffocated.

It was as if something was shattering in his heart, and a bang pierced through his eardrums, giving him a tingling sensation throughout his soul.

The corners of Shen Chi's lips suddenly hooked up a mocking smile, he slowly closed his eyes, no longer looking at the gray world around him, sure enough, it was still him... It's naΓ―ve!

Could it be that after experiencing his bitter begging for the so-called father he used to call him, the contemptuous and disgusted eyes of his family, and his refusal to arrange a burial place for his mother, he still couldn't realize it clearly?

In this world, there should be no more what he expects, and there is no more love for him!

It seemed as if rain was falling from the sky, cold and cold, across his cheeks.

.........

When Shen Chi was ten years old, he encountered a turning point, and he thought that his life would be dark all the time, but suddenly ushered in a light.

It was about early spring, and the Ling family caravan went out to pick up goods, and Shen Chi also secretly followed.

Shen Chi has been looking for a way to leave the Ling family, he wants to go outside, he wants to live his own life, that should be the most mature time for him to leave the Ling family!

He secretly put his mother's tombstone into his bag and secretly left with the Ling family's caravan, but suddenly encountered an accident on the way back.

While the Ling family's caravan was resting at night, a wolf demon suddenly attacked the caravan.

The moonlight of the night sprinkled on the blood-red ground, and the rich smell of blood was extremely pungent.

Those people of the Ling family wailed and ran, and the wolf demon waved its claws mercilessly.

This should be the best time for him to leave, right?Shen Chi hid in the grass, quietly observing, not daring to make a sound, he watched the wolf demon tear apart the bodies of everyone in the Ling family, and let out an excited howl.

He wanted to leave quietly, but for some reason, his footsteps suddenly froze in place, refusing to move for half a minute, and his eyes suddenly froze.

I saw that under the moonlight, a woman in white suddenly appeared, she was holding a long sword and flew towards the wolf demon.

The direction of the wolf demon's travel is the grass where Shen Chi is hidden!

Shen Chi watched the wolf demon keep approaching this side, but the footsteps that he should have left were motionless at the moment, and he watched the huge wolf demon's fierce face and fangs coming towards this side.

Shen Chi was stunned as if he was stunned, he just watched in a daze as the woman in white tried her best to fight with the wolf demon in the moonlight, she was as white as snow in the moonlight, and the sword flashed with cold light in the fight with the wolf demon, but when he looked closely, he could see that the person's stunning face was faintly white in the moonlight.

Finally, she used the sword in her hand to pierce the wolf demon's body, blood splattered, her white clothes like frost and snow were dyed with bright red, a trace of blood trickled down the corner of her lips, across her slender and graceful neck, and finally dripped on her white collar, rendering a demonic aura.

Obviously, he looked so innocent, cold and arrogant and inviolable, his face was expressionless, but he looked enchanted because of that beautiful bright red.

At a young age, he couldn't quite tell what it was like to be amazing, but looking at the scene in front of him, this person, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if something was about to jump out of his chest, and even his breathing became short, his eyes were firmly fixed on her, reluctant to move away.

That's what it is...... Shen Chi looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, immortals?

Suddenly, he felt as if a warm liquid was flowing through his cheeks, smashing down his neck into his clothes, melting in his chest, as if dissolving into his heart.

Shen Chi's small hand tightly knitted into a fist, he looked at the woman in white not far in front of him, and suddenly, the woman in white seemed to notice his gaze, and looked towards the grass on this side.

Shen Chi's gaze and hers gaze met in the air, and there was suddenly an indescribable feeling in his heart, the gaze of the woman in white was too indifferent and cold, even if she had just stabbed a huge cruel demon beast, there was no wave, as if everything in this world was not enough for her to look sideways.

Shen Chi saw that the woman in white saw him, there seemed to be something surging in her eyes, disturbing his thoughts, he could no longer stand calmly in place, so he quickly disappeared into the grass, and suddenly a noisy voice came from behind him.

"Immortal Master!"

"Immortal Master, what's wrong with you?"

Suddenly, people's gratitude turned into panicked worry, and Shen Chi's steps that were about to flee paused, and his delicate eyebrows suddenly deepened against the backdrop of the night.

He only sighed deeply, but his fast pace slowed down and finally stopped.

Forget it, count it... He has already fallen into the mud, and what is there to lose?

.........

"Have you heard?"

"What, what?"

"I heard, didn't the caravan in the family go out to buy this time?"

"What's there to say about this, it's not an uncommon thing!"

"Hey, don't worry, listen to me!"

"Okay, good, you say, you say!"

"This time, our family caravan went out to buy, but on the way back, we encountered a demon beast!"

"And then, then what?"

"Then an immortal descended from the sky and saved everyone in the caravan!"

"Immortals?!"

"Yes, yes, I heard that he is a fairy, he looks like a fairy, and he is better looking than the most beautiful girls in our city!"

β€œ.........”

Shen Chi stood around the corner, his small body hidden in the dark, no one noticing that he could hear their words clearly.

His eyes were heavy, as if they were covered with a layer of gray and could not be wiped clean, but if you looked closely, there seemed to be a majestic flame burning in these gray eyes!

The so-called immortal?heh, the corners of his lips hooked a mocking arc, his eyes were slightly red, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and he clenched his fists to restrain himself from making a sound.

He remembered the appearance of the man in white in the moonlight, so high!

Since they are immortals, why did they not appear until now, and why did they not appear before to save their mother and son?

Since she was willing to be injured in order to save the group of people with hypocritical faces in Ling Mansion, why did she refuse to save their mother and son?

God has mercy on all beings, but He has forgotten them!

What kind of god is this?!ridiculous!

.........

He was beaten by the group of people in the courtyard again, and the more the group of people shouted, the more disdain he felt in his heart, even if he didn't have the ability to resist, but this group of people...

He watched coldly as these people's fists kept hitting him, and unbearable insults popped out of their mouths, and Shen Chi's gaze gradually turned cold.

Their group of people is really ridiculous, they are useless in the Ling Mansion on weekdays, and they are despised by everyone, and now they can only rely on bullying him to find a sense of existence and superiority from him, a powerless child!
