Chapter 39: The Hunter and the Crow

"Hey, wake up, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

In a daze, Sky Smile heard a woman's soft call in his ears, and then he slowly opened his eyes and saw a blurry woman's face.

The contours of the face are very beautiful, but for some reason, the facial features are very blurred, like a reflection in the water.

Sky wiped his eyes with a smile, and it turned out that it was his own eyes that were blurred.

The woman's silhouette finally became clear, and it was the 'old way', and she was looking at herself with a worried face at the moment.

"Are you alright?" asked the 'old way' with a concerned expression.

What can I do?

Sky couldn't understand why the other party asked this, and suddenly, he found that the outline of the 'old way' was blurred again!

"Huh, what's going on?"

Sky smiled and wiped his eyes again, and found that his hands were wet.

So I'm crying?

Bird Slope, Ancient Temple, Crow, Little Lotus...... The scene in the dream is like a dynamic painting, flashing in the sky smile in his mind one by one, his expression is becoming more and more sad, and the tears can't be stopped, desperately flowing out.

"Xiaolian and I are finished...... I'm a big liar...... I cheated on her...... I'm sorry for her......"

Sky Laugh suddenly couldn't help but cry, like a child, completely ignoring his own image.

'Lao Dao' skillfully hugged the sky and smiled, patted him on the back, and said gently: "Good, don't cry, don't cry, I'm listening, you speak slowly, talk slowly......"

'Lao Dao' is very skillful in her movements, as if she has often faced such situations before, and then she is like now, pampering someone who is taller and sturdy than her, and there is no sense of disobedience in her actions!

"My greatest sin is that I have never loved a man as a woman do......es!" The biggest lie. ”

......

......

My name is Ye Xiaolian and I often have a dream!

In my dream, when I was a child, a crow flew away into the distance, and no matter how much I shouted behind me, it had no nostalgia, and it just left me, to a place where I could no longer find it!

I asked Abba why he had left me, and he said that he must have thought that I could not protect him, so he had to seek new refuge.

Abba told me that I only have to keep growing, and when one day, when I am strong enough, the crows will never leave me again, and I will be their eternal dependence.

That's how I'm growing up with great anticipation......

However, instead of getting stronger, I became weaker and weaker, and I became afraid of everything, of the dark, of blood, of everything that could make me afraid.

I hated myself like that, but I couldn't help it, I knew that I was no longer fit to be a hunter, and the crow that flew away when I was young became a luxury that I could never reach again in my life!

Later, the village was attacked by monsters that I had never seen before, and I left Abba and familiar people to a strange city.

Here, I met a person, and he was Sky Laugh - Laughing Brother.

I've only seen very few people in my life, but none of them are like Brother Xiao - everyone is slowly living, but Brother Xiao is slowly dying.

Brother Xiao's brow was full of sadness, he must have experienced so much unspeakable sadness and despair that he couldn't find hope of living.

I looked at Brother Xiao, as if I had seen so many crows, all of whom were driven away by some force or reality, and lost hope of life.

Luckily, the crows had found a group of hunters to rely on, but Brother Xiao didn't, and maybe had, at least not yet.

It occurred to me that I wanted to be a support for Brother Laughing - perhaps to make up for the regret left by the crow when I was younger.

I went to talk to him with that in mind, and he said a lot to me...... And then...... And then what did I fall in love with him? Was it the lotus flower in his mouth? Or did he always look into the distant eyes? Or ......

In short, I fell in love with him without hesitation, which was my luck and the beginning of my despair.

We spent more and more time together, and when I thought we were going to go on like this forever, he was sent out and we wouldn't see each other for two years!

How could I endure not seeing him for so long for two years, and what if he came back in two years and couldn't remember me anymore?

So I had to tell him before I left that I loved him.

When I had exhausted all my courage to say that, I silently waited for happiness to come...... Then, as I wished, he also told me that he loved me.

But...... Why, why do I look up and don't see a hint of love in my eyes?

Is it hidden?

But why is it so close and still not visible?

I stared into his eyes carefully......

Then I saw dependence in the deepest part of his eyes, a dependence that I had been very familiar with as a child, and every time I went to the Absolute Bird Slope, I would see this dependence in the eyes of the crows.

It turns out that Brother Xiao really didn't love me.

He was like the crow on the slope of the Absolute Bird, who, in his most desperate moments, met a hunter and took that hunter as his dependence for his survival.

At that moment, my heart ached, and for the first time I even hated my brother for not loving me, but he deceived me - although I knew he didn't mean to.

However, I couldn't help myself with my love for him, so I decided that even if he didn't love me, as long as he was always there for me in the future.

I'm looking forward to, looking forward to the day when he will fall in love with me as much as I love him.

How I wanted to go with him to Jingye City, but my cowardice stopped me - I had never hated myself as much as I did then.

He left alone.

That night I dreamed again of the crow, and it was far away from me, without a trace of nostalgia......

I woke up from my dream, and then I began to be a little afraid, I was afraid that my brother would be like the crow, and one day he would think that I could no longer be his dependence, so I fled to a place where I could no longer find it, to find other shelter...... After all, I'm so cowardly and incompetent.

Every night after that, I dreamed of the crow, and he walked away from me over and over again, and I woke up again and again......

Then one time, when I finally caught up with the crow, he looked back at me, and I met the look in his eyes—a look that was so familiar to me, exactly the same as that of Brother Xiao......

I was desperate, and I finally realized that Brother Xiao would really be like that crow, aware of my weakness, and then leave me without a trace of nostalgia, and once again become a luxury that I could not reach in my life.

I can't let that happen, I have to be the most powerful hunter, strong enough to be his life's dependence, so that he will not be far away from me.

I'm so weak that I'm even worried that the moment Brother Xiao comes back, he'll leave me forever.

When I was at my most desperate, I met Sister Ming.

She is so beautiful, so beautiful that people dare not touch it. She looked back at me: "Hey, what a powerful bloodline, this bloodline still has a ...... left."

What did I hear? powerful—the words I had dreamed of, and I seemed to see hope again......

I didn't even want to rely on Sister Ming, she was also very good and responded to my needs. She said that my 'cowardice' was a seal, which can also be understood as a demonic barrier, and then she also gave me a way to get out of the demonic barrier.

I asked her to help me find the 'Lotus', and although she didn't think that the 'Lotus' could be my Daoji, I stubbornly insisted on myself because I hadn't forgotten what my brother had said.

After all, I still failed, and the 'lotus' was contrary to my 'Tao'.

Laugh brother, he lied to me again!

Then Sister Ming told me again that I could use the human king.

Somewhere there is an incomparably powerful force that can also help me get rid of the obstacles, but at the cost that before long, I will no longer be whole, and I will no longer be myself......

Who am I? I am a cowardly hunter, I am a hunter who cannot protect the crows that depend on me, I am a hunter who can only watch my brother laugh away from me and have nothing to do......

In that case...... I'd rather not be myself anymore.

I just want my beloved brother to laugh.

It's just that I don't have much time......

......

......

My name is Sky Laugh, and I'm still very young, but I know that no matter how long I have to live in the years to come, my life has been divided into three parts!

The first part is before the age of eight.

I have no memory of this life, I don't know where I came from, I don't know where I want to go, I don't even know if I really existed for eight years!

The second part is 8 to 11 years old!

This period of my life was short, but it was the most unforgettable three years for me - there were many people chasing me, chasing me day out.

I don't know what mistakes I made, I'm still so young, I can't even steal a few buns, so I can't possibly commit any unforgivable sin, so...... Why did they kill me?

Later I realized that there is a sin in your existence itself, just like crows, and they are not wrong, but all people are killing them - I am the crow in the eyes of the world, and my existence is the greatest evil for them!

With so much sin, I don't know how I'm supposed to live, maybe my life should end like this?

Then I somehow arrived at a place - Jeju Slope.

It was only at Jedi Slope that I realized that crows were also qualified to live, and it turned out that not everyone would kill crows, and there would also be people who would provide them for ......

So, I'm going to find my hunter, and only then can I live.

Then, Sister Xiaojun and Xiaoyu appeared, and they told me that they also didn't know where they came from and where they wanted to go.

They are like a pair of angels who will provide for me as a crow...... No, they are hunters, hunters who belong to me......

Anyway, Sister Xiaojun and Xiaoyu have drawn a perfect end to this part of my life!

I grew up in this part of my life, I became a crow, and in the years to come, I didn't grow any more, I just grew old slowly - as a crow. My wings will gradually plump.

Actually, I really realized that I was a crow and understood all of this not when I was eight or eleven years old, but after I met Ye Xiaolian.

One day, Sister Xiaojun and Xiaoyu suddenly disappeared, and I couldn't find them anymore...... The crows were gone, I didn't know how to live, and I slowly died—of course, I didn't realize it at the time.

It was at that time that I met Ye Xiaolian, and then, she became my second hunter!

I'm a crow, but I'm not a good crow.

Ye Xiaolian gave me support and gave me hope to live, but because I didn't realize it yet, and I didn't realize that I was a crow, I thought it was love, and I relied on her as a matter of course, but I didn't fulfill even the slightest obligation, and because of my mistakes, I gradually forced her to a dead end.

Until the end, the being in the dark space made me have a dream, and in the dream I re-examined my past, and it turned out that I was a crow.

If I had a chance to do it all over again, I would still be a crow, and I don't know if the crow would fall in love with its hunter, but I would at least be a good crow to predict disasters and stop disasters for my hunters.
