Memories of the Past: Puppet Chapter
didn't dodge, a small red mark was smashed out of the eyebrow bone, and the ring didn't know where it fell, Rose pinched her arm fiercely, and forcibly didn't shed a single tear, after so many years, she really didn't understand what this person wanted?
"Oh, what are you staring at me for, do you want to do it to me? Yes, you are a great spirit, and I am just a useless cripple, you don't regard me as a father at all, in your opinion I am just a burden, right, come on, do it, I will stand here, kill me, you will be free, do whatever you like, be a teacher, be a prostitute, no one will talk nonsense. The man drew a dagger from his cane and handed it to Rose, grabbing her hand and stabbing him in the neck.
"Say no more, I beg you to stop talking......"
Rose cried and retracted her hand, throwing her dagger on the ground, she begging not to hear it again, why did he say it when he knew he couldn't do it......
In just six years, what made my father look like this, just being injured and becoming a cripple can make a person's temperament change greatly?
Shouldn't this person love himself the most?
Shouldn't it be the Imperial Knight of which he is proud?
Why did you get to where you are today?
"Heh, can't you do it? It seems that you are also a waste, we really made a couple, go, pick it up for me, Rose, I tell you, don't think that you can make your own decisions if you have a long ability, as long as I live for a day, you have to listen to me, or you will just kill me for a hundred, understand?"
The man sneered, picked up the short sword on the ground with difficulty, and pointed to the ring that had fallen at the door, what is the use of this money? Of course it works, at least until Rose gets married, he still expects this money to live and entertain.
As Rose bent to pick up the ring, the man stood up, limped behind her, picked up his cane and struck her in the back.
How could his actions be hidden from Rose, but she just closed her eyes, bit her lip and didn't say a word, he could fight if he wanted, no matter how he changed, he was his father.
"What a scumbag, people like you deserve to be called your father, I don't know what to say. ”
Rose was stunned, opened her eyes, and saw a black-haired young man about twenty years old squatting in front of her with a smile, blocking the whip with her arm, and picking up the ring on the ground without changing her face, and putting it in her hand.
"There's no need to shed tears for this kind of person, this is your ring, it's so small that it's hard to find, don't take it off next time." The black-haired young man took out a white handkerchief and wiped the tears from Rose's face.
"This is my family affair, you ...... care"
The black-haired young man just glanced at him lightly, and let him swallow all the rest of the words, as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, with a cold killing intent.
"Lord Viscount, if I remember correctly, you participated in the foreign crusade of the Northern Ye Kingdom at the beginning, and you said that it was to expand the territory at best, and to plunder at worst, how majestic you were when you wantonly slaughtered and plundered, why did you become like this now?
"Who are you, how do you know these things?" the man looked at the black-haired young man in horror.
"I know more than that, I know how you were injured, and I know where your wife is now, do you want me to tell me everything?" the black-haired young man asked softly as he stood up and whispered in his ear.
"You...... What do you want to do!?"
The secret that had been sealed in his heart for many years was brought up again, and he thought he was about to forget, but now he found out that instead of forgetting, he remembered it clearly, and every detail could be recalled.
"You should be glad that the person who came is me, if it's night, I'm afraid you won't be so lucky, he hates people like you the most, hurting others and himself, but if I let you go like this, I'm not happy, it's better like this, from now on you don't force her to do anything, try to be a good father? Otherwise, you're going to live the rest of your life in prison." ”
He lived on alcohol and anesthesia all day, and once again his past memories were recalled, and he didn't even notice that he was the only one left in the room.
Knight of the Empire, what a glorious title.
No one is innocent in the war, no one is spared, no one is exempt, there is no distinction between right and wrong, and there are different positions, this truth should have been understood, but when he stabbed the sword in his hand into the chest of a young boy who had no power to resist, he realized that he was wrong, and it was very wrong.
They cried and cried, their feeble hands tugging at each other, staining blood everywhere.
Why kill these people? They didn't threaten at all, they couldn't even eat, but he couldn't question it on the battlefield, orders were more important than everything, and he later learned that the country of Bird, to which these towns belonged, was located on the edge of the Northern Ye Kingdom, and when Ye Bei seized the throne, this country helped another prince and secretly provided him with troops and food and grass.
If it succeeds, it is better to say, but it is a pity that if it fails, the so-called alliance will also collapse, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and since you have made a choice, you will have to pay the corresponding price.
If you want to compare the internal pacification war, the external crusade is ten times more bloody and a hundred times bloody, naked slaughter, only seven small city-states of the Bird Kingdom were slaughtered in this way, swallowed up as part of the North Ye Kingdom, none of the original residents were spared, and the dead fled.
No one on the battlefield is innocent, and the crusade continues.
He clearly remembered that when he was twenty-one years old, he was canonized as a knight, and the bishop put the sharpless sword on his right shoulder, and he told himself, "The strong enemy is present, fearless, courageous and loyal, worthy of the gods, upright and outspoken, would rather die than be false, protect the weak, this is your oath, remember it firmly, canonize as a knight!"
Humility, honor, sacrifice, valor, mercy, honesty, spirituality, justice, this is the knight he yearns for, dressed in white to symbolize cleanliness, and red to symbolize sacrifice, he swore loudly.
"I will be merciful to the weak! I will face strong enemies bravely! I will fight against sinners without reservation! I will fight for those who cannot fight! I will help those who need my help! I will not hurt women and children! I will help my knight brothers! I will be faithful to my friends! I will be sincere in love!"
But in fact, all this is just a formality, and hatred and the struggle for land always prevail over the knightly code.
Later, he was stabbed in the right leg and left the battlefield, but he will never forget the children who died at his hands, their cries before death seem to be still in his ears, it is better to be a drunkard than to be such a knight, years of depression and alcohol intoxication have made him irritable and irritable, the heroic knight has died, and has returned a walking corpse.
......
"Thanks, that ...... Can you let go?"
Rose had already left the gloomy and oppressive home when she came back to her senses, and the cool breeze and soft sunlight sprinkled on her body made her mood relaxed.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm the one who can't see a girl crying, and I'm in a hurry...... If you want me to say, you might as well just leave, you give him money just to indulge him, and he will only go too far. The ghost hurriedly let go of his hand.
"He's my father after all...... Forget it, don't talk about that, thank you just now, that ...... My name is Rose, what should I call you?" Rose shook her head, suppressing all the unhappiness in her heart.
"Just call me a ghost, you don't have to thank me, I was waiting for you today, oh no, strictly speaking, I'm waiting for him. The ghost said with a smile, and then the conversation changed.
Rose followed his gaze and looked forward, and suddenly exclaimed, "Xiao Shu, why are you here?"
"He should have been following you all the time, but there is one thing I don't understand, since you are worried about her safety, why didn't you come forward just now, and you have to wait for me to rescue her, and then you come out to be this good person?" asked the ghost with a smile.
"How did you know I was coming?"
Xiao Shu's mind turned, the red umbrella on his back dispersed, the red leaf sword was condensed in his hand, the ghost's words revealed a news, the puppet knew his whereabouts well, did the puppet really think that this person could kill himself?
"You've really knocked me down, anyway, if you come, but you can rest assured, I've always been above board, even if I want to kill you, I won't do anything to take hostages, it's more uncomfortable than killing me, and I still have a good impression of Rose. The ghost was not at all deterred by the sense of oppression on Xiao Shu's body, but became more and more excited.
Xiao Shu didn't answer, he couldn't guess the reason why the puppet did this, but at the moment, he couldn't think a lot, the person in front of him was not Fang Ye, since he dared to wait for him here, he must have enough confidence, although Xiao Shu was not afraid, he would not despise the other party because of this.
"At first, I heard that the night was seriously injured and couldn't get out of bed for several days, I always thought that he was living too comfortably, and his skills were regressing greatly, or that you took advantage of the soulless spirit puppet and dragged him down by his resilience, now it seems that I can probably understand, as an external demon, you want to come to the original world has already won the championship, so you chose to leave, how can you not beat the night of the soul spirit, if it weren't for this soulless spirit puppet to limit you, I'm afraid the night is dead. ”
At the moment when the two of them were talking, the ghost's soul realm had already spread, and it could invisibly affect people's emotions, in terms of his realm, even the night could not be completely unaffected, but the person in front of him was completely unmoved, there was no emotion in his eyes, only emptiness and nothingness.
"What do you want to say?"
Xiao Shu ignored his flattery, his selfless artistic conception coupled with his own sword intent, not to mention the realm of the heart and soul, even the butterfly in the state of loss of control had nothing to do with him.
"The spiritual path inheritance has been lost too much so far, even today's guardians are mostly half-understood, no matter how perfect they are, they can't go back to the beginning, just forbidden spirits, Shenyuan Lingwu has come to an end, it's really desperate, but as an outsider, if you don't cultivate the spiritual path, our end doesn't exist for you, so ...... Let me see what your word is. ”
