Volume 1 Crime and Punishment Chapter 5 Farewell
Luo Mu slowly woke up in the sound of the sea, the sea outside the window was still calm, and some slightly noisy sounds came from afar.
Luo Mu was not in the mood to do anything after Quinn left, and went back to the house to sleep after dinner hastily in the evening, during which Chrissy and Claire each came once, Claire thought that her brother had encountered something unhappy, and saw that Luo Mu was sleeping soundly and did not disturb him.
Chrissy saw at a glance that Luo Mu was not asleep, gently stroked Luo Mu's forehead and said, "I found Ke Rui's father, get up early tomorrow, don't miss it" Chrissy After speaking, she saw Luo Mu turn over suddenly, her back to Chrissy and hugged the quilt tightly, Chrissy sighed lightly, didn't say anything more, turned around and went out, and gently helped Luo Mu cover the door.
The impact of the huge tsunami a month ago was not insignificant, the houses by the sea were destroyed, only the families like the Ross family, who built their houses on high cliffs by the sea and were slightly remote, were not affected, and the young and strong families in the town who went out to sea to fish that day basically returned home without danger by relying on their excellent water skills and years of experience in fighting with the sea, but there was one person who did not return, and that person was Curry's father.
In this month, as Ke Rui's best friend, Luo Mu witnessed Ke Rui go from being confident that his father would definitely come back, to worrying all day long asking Luo Mu if his father would definitely come back, and then to looking at the vast but silent sea all day long as if he had lost his soul.
A month has passed, Ke Rui's mood has slowly recovered, and he has slowly accepted the fact that his father may never come back, and life will still move forward forever no matter what, but Luo Mu has never come out of that day, today is actually the first time Ke Rui returned to church to attend classes, and Claire actually cares about Ke Rui very much, in this month, she ran Ke Rui's house more often than Luo Mu, and today Claire finally met Ke Rui on the way to school today is actually very happy, and deliberately turned out those old sesame rotten grains to squeeze Ke Rui is nothing more than to let Ke Rui remember that he still has these friends。
A month ago, Luo Mu just woke up and learned the news of Ke Rui's father's disappearance, Luo Mu vaguely knew that this tsunami was inseparable from himself, if so, Ke Rui's father's death was actually inseparable from himself at all, these things only Ross and Luo Mu knew, and Chris really knew the father and son too well, and almost understood the matter in a few words, and at this moment she didn't know how to enlighten her son, so she could only let him be alone and quiet.
In this month, Luo Mu watched Ke Rui cry countless times, and his heart was no less heavy than Ke Rui, but Luo Mu didn't know how to tell Ke Rui about it, in fact, Luo Mu himself didn't know the whole story of this matter at all.
Quinn's body was like a cloud of mist slowly condensing in the air, he looked at Luo Mu who was lying motionless on the bed and said, "Let's go" Luo Mu did not react, but his body twitched violently, and a very suppressed cry came from between the quilts, Quinn frowned slightly, "I'll take you to see Ke Rui's father"
The moon on tonight is surprisingly bright, the moon on the sea will be covered by mist many times, like tonight, there are a few beautiful moons against the mist, indicating that tomorrow must be a cloudless and excellent weather, Luo Mu only wore a pair of single pants, bare upper body, thin body can almost see the outline of the skeleton, Luo Mu drooped his head and bare feet on the thin white sand beach by the sea and slowly advanced, leaving a series of clear footprints, soon a person and a soul walked to the sea, the sea was surprisingly quiet at this moment, the white moonlight reflected the slightly churning waves rolled up layer after layer of white foam, and occasionally small crabs emerge from the fine sand and spit the same white foam.
And on a beach not far from Luo Mu, there was a firelight, it was a special torch, Luo Mu stopped suddenly, he knew very well that it was the torch that Qinghe used to attract the souls of the people who died at sea, the flame of the torch was faintly revealing cyan in the night, and Luo Mu could vaguely see Ke Rui standing expressionlessly on the side of the torch by the firelight.
Luo Mu's nose was sore, and the tears were about to fall again, he felt that he had shed all the tears in the first half of his life in the past few days, Quinn reached out and gently touched Luo Mu's head, stood behind him, looked at the sea in front of him, and said, "I saw dead people again, no matter how big or small, standing in front of the throne." The book was opened, and another volume was opened, the book of life. And those who died were judged according to their deeds by what was written in these books. Then the sea delivered up the dead in it, and death and hell also delivered up the dead in it, and they were all judged according to their works."
Luo Mu listened to this strange words, and calmed down inexplicably, but Quinn still put a hand on the top of Luo Mu's head, and a white light was escaping from Quinn's hand, slowly entering Luo Mu's body along the circle tattoo on the back of Luo Mu's neck, Luo Mu felt as if there were a lot of things in his head, but he could never recall it again.
I don't know how long it took, the waves of the sea were layer after layer, as if time would be repeated here forever, Quinn put his hand down from Luo Mu's head, quietly looked at Luo Mugang's opened eyes and said, "Although you may never be able to become a real soul master, it doesn't mean that you won't be strong, dark matter is an intolerable impurity for soul power, but for dark matter, soul power is not the same as making them unbearable, but if you want to embark on this path, it is more painful than becoming a soul master."
Luo Mu's eyes still had unfinished tears, and he looked at Quinn, "I just want to see Curry's father again"
Quinn's expression was still as calm as a deep pool, "Go, give him a ride" Luo Mu asked while walking towards the sea water with black waves, "What should I do?"
"First of all, you have to learn to forget"
As always, it was cold, this was Luo Mu's first feeling after entering the water, Luo Mu did not bring the lighting tools that should be carried in the water at night, for the past month, every night Quinn would wake up Luo Mu, and then take him to do one thing, that is, to get close to these undead, in the course of this month's efforts, Luo Mu became more and more familiar with the mist wrapped in these pitch-black threads, and the first thing Quinn taught him was not to look with his eyes.
Luo Mu also slowly understood that his eyes were actually no different from other people, the reason why he could see these undead was more telepathy, cognition and existence, and now even in this dark sea, he could still clearly feel them wandering or standing still nearby.
Luo Mu swam towards the place where the fire was shining on the sea, and then kept diving, because he "saw" a pair of eyes that he was extremely familiar with, Cole.
Ke Er is very strong, always with a simple smile on his face, and he always looks like he hates Ke Rui, but Ke Er likes Luo Mu very much, and even told Ross that he wants to take Luo Mu as his godson, Ke Rui always suspects that Luo Mu is Ke Mu's own son, and he picked it up.
Every time Luo Mu went to Ke Rui's house to play, if Ke Er was at home, his enthusiasm made Luo Mu almost unbearable, Ke Er always took out the most precious and best things in the house to entertain Luo Mu, the best fish, and the delicious drinks brought from the city, and Ke Rui could only rub some every time he waited for Luo Mu to come.
But now, the uncle who is as warm and hearty as the sun is left with only such a pair of cloudy eyes, eyes that only Luo Mu can see.
The souls of the dead wandering in the sea retreated, and Luo Mu floated directly above the soul of Ke Le so determinedly, but Ke Er did not retreat like the other ghosts, but was guided by the special torch and rose straight up.
Luo Mu sat down in the sea water, crossed his legs, his two hands were not strong, he opened to both sides, and the ripples of the water rose and fell, Luo Mu completely calmed down, from the body to the heart, the whole person was in an ethereal state, bursts of heat kept gushing out from the body inexplicably, bringing out a tremor on the surface of the skin, a contraction of pores, and the undead who retreated to hundreds of meters away slowly gathered after Luo Mu was quiet, this is what Quinn had to take Luo Mu to do every night this month。
Luo Mu felt the trembling that kept coming from the deepest part of his heart, and the surrounding undead also gathered over, and Ke's soul was still wrapped in a thick fog, and the two eyes were blurry and confused, Luo Mu slowly opened his eyes, at this time, Ke's soul had come to Luo Mu's face, but Luo Mu seemed to be guided by something, and suddenly stretched out a hand, directly into Ke's soul.
In a trance, Luo Mu seemed to wake up suddenly in a long dream, Luo Mu raised his head and looked around, he was sitting on a small boat, his nose was full of old sea water and aquatic creatures brought by the fishy smell, a young man at the other end of the boat was lying on the edge of the boat looking at the water, suddenly, an inexplicable wind from nowhere blew violently across the boat, the sea.
Luo Mu realized that he couldn't control himself at all, he felt everything that this body felt, the huge air pressure made him breathless at all, as if he couldn't see, his ears couldn't hear, he raised his hands, he was extremely sure that he was not himself at this moment, those hands were thick and short, there was still a little brown hair on the back of his hands, and a turquoise ring made Luo Mu finally know the owner of these hands.
Luo Mu still remembers the first time he went to Ke Rui's house to play, Ke Er showed off the ring on his hand when his eyebrows danced, the two thick brown beards on his face, a messy hair of the same brown curls, and a slightly dark and shiny face exposed to the sea, which was Luo Mu's initial impression of Ke Er.
When Luo Mu was five years old, Ke Rui pulled his father's pants and looked at Luo Mu with some sadness
"Brother Mu, this is my dad"
And at this moment, as far as the eye can see, a huge wave that seems to be able to swallow everything is covering the sky.
