"Madam, I can't make any more money. Come here. I want to go home with you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry——"
Going further, Gu Qingyang saw a figure beside a river. It was a burly man.
This strong man had bronze skin, and every muscle in his body was sharp and angular. At first glance, he looked like a very powerful man.
But at this moment, there were countless tears on this man's face. Tears, blurred by sweat, ran down his face.
Beside this person, there is another person holding a pen in one hand and a book in the other. If you look carefully, it seems that he is recording something.
Regarding these, Gu Qingyang can see clearly. He knew that the strong man in front of him was asking someone to write a letter.
The words he spoke until he burst into tears at the end were all words from his heart and words of helplessness.
His body is indeed very strong, but he has lost two legs and one hand, and he can be considered a cripple.
At the same time, there were many people around this person, and most of those people had just a look of regret on their faces.
Gu Qingyang looked around and saw not only a touch of regret but also a unique sadness on the faces of these people.
After feeling this strange feeling, Gu Qingyang's thoughts couldn't help but change. And in the end, he only thought of one thing.
He got it.
The reason why these people felt sorry and sad for what happened to this strong man. It's because they are actually the same.
Even though their bodies are not as strong as this man's, the burdens they carry are equally heavy.
What they carry on their shoulders may not only be their own lives, but also the lives of the entire family behind them.
The wild world is a strange world.
In this world, there are bone cultivators who are so powerful that they transcend many rules, and there are also mortal beings who are extremely weak.
Bone repairers can more or less control part of their own destiny. At least, when bone cultivators face changes in fate, they still have the right to struggle.
However, mortals are different. It is said that the sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the sea is wide enough for fish to leap. But everyone lives in this wild world.
That's like a bird breaking its wings, and a fish losing its fins and tails that it needs to survive. Facing fate, mortals are not qualified to contend with it.
This is a very cruel reality.
However, it is also a reality that countless mortals throughout the ages have to accept. Because you accept the reality, you can still live.
If you choose to refuse, there is really only one option left for mortals to choose from. That is death.
As for this strong man, and the people around him, they all relied on selling coolies in exchange for capital to survive.
Their hands and feet are, in a sense, as important as their lives. Because if you lose your life, you will surely die.
And if you lose your hands and feet, you will definitely die.
They are all the most ordinary mortals among countless mortals. In addition to relying on that strength to make a living.
Other things are really difficult for them to do and they don’t know how to do them. And if you don't do something, you will naturally have no choice but to die.
Those people felt sorry because they had seen the fate of that strong man, and they also knew the heights that this strong man could have reached.
From their point of view, they witnessed something extremely sad. They saw a man who could have had a good life.
Because of this sudden change, he lost his legs and arms, and fell into the abyss of death, unable to extricate himself.
And their sorrow is because of themselves. Because they can think of themselves through this strong man.
Today, they are not the ones with the problem. They are not the ones whose lives have been destroyed.
But what about the future?
One day in the future, will they, like this strong man, lose their legs and arms due to the day-in and day-out work?
Will they become like this strong man, who can only die in silent sobs and self-blame that he wants to die immediately?
All of them were asking this question at this time.
And the answer to that question also exists in their hearts.
Even though no one among them had mentioned this question at all, let alone said the answer to this question.
They can still know everything, and feel pain and extreme sorrow for everything they perceive.
Maybe, this is life.
Time is also fate.
It cannot be changed by humans.
Everything is fate, nothing is up to you.
…
These words that have been passed down for hundreds of generations, thousands of generations, or even eternity, what they want to express is probably this.
But this time, Gu Qingyang was not in a hurry to leave immediately. He was in his place, standing and staring.
He was waiting, waiting to witness what might happen next. Waiting for the results that these people in front of him will present to him.
He wanted to take a good look at how the story that happened in front of him would end.
"Let's go home."
After a long time, Gu Qingyang, who was almost unable to maintain his spiritual consciousness, finally waited for this answer.
And when he steeled himself again and looked silently into the distance, what he saw was an ordinary-looking woman in a plain skirt.
The woman's figure still looks relatively thin. But from certain angles, this woman's figure doesn't seem that thin.
Gu Qingyang, on the other hand, sighed silently in his heart. Just because he could tell at a glance that this woman was deliberately stronger than her body.
He speculated that the method used by this woman should be food supplementation. That is to say, you can quickly strengthen your body by eating certain foods.
And this method will also bring some bad effects to the people who use it. However, most of those influences are also reflected in appearance.
For example, the body is out of balance and no longer slim.
For example, the skin loses color and is no longer fair.
In any case, at least, the physique of the person who uses this method has been truly improved.
Therefore, Gu Qingyang could also understand that this strong man's wife might have made up her mind from the moment she received the letter.
"Qiong'er, you-"
"Stop talking."
"You support me in the first half of your life, and I will support you in the second half of your life. We must live well, live well, and live well in this world."
…
After a simple exchange, the woman in plain skirt stubbornly left with the disabled man on her back.
And everyone present, after seeing them off for a while, silently returned to their place.
Many of them would silently wipe away tears or have red eyes because of the strong man's departure.
At that moment, the eyes of these people finally showed a look of joy. It was obvious that in their eyes, the person had suffered a tragedy.
At that moment, the best result was obtained. At the same time, they are actually looking forward to the fact that one day they will do the same.
Then they hope that they can also meet their beloved.
However, such things still have to rely on fate. Although they are rough people who can only do hard work, they don't understand the big principles.
However, those great principles will also become similar words in their hearts and survive in a more understandable way.
"call--"
Watching this another story end right before my eyes. When Gu Qingyang left, he couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, his spiritual body had become extremely weak, and many parts of his body had become much more transparent.
However, after sighing, he still did not choose to stop, but chose to continue moving forward.
Although, in this process, his increasingly weak spiritual body is probably destined to slowly dissipate bit by bit.
But there were no other thoughts in his eyes. At this time, the brilliance in his eyes was still extremely pure.
And in the process of moving forward, Gu Qingyang gradually came to a realization, and his heart began to become more peaceful than ever before.
He was immersed in such tranquility.
No matter how much time passed, his mood never changed. He is the only one who often thinks of what happened during this experience.
He could clearly remember everyone he had met along the way.
And at the end, he also started to think.
He saw it, and he also thought about it. In fact, the living environment of those mortals and the living environment of bone cultivators were almost the same.
Perhaps the plight of mortals is not comparable to the plight of bone cultivators. Perhaps, the bone cultivators simply do not care about the plight of mortals.
However, for those mortals with limited strength and meager strength, being able to do that is already their limit.
That's why Gu Qingyang had some enlightenment and thought, thinking that mortals and bone cultivators are actually the same.
The power that supports bone cultivators to persevere in difficult situations mostly comes from their own persistence and desires.
For example, how far they have practiced.
For example, what wish do they want to fulfill?
For example, they want to get something.
…
There are many similar reasons, which can be said to be countless. But when bone cultivators live in this world, what they seek is often not to live, but to live well.
In contrast, what mortals want can be replaced by two words, that is, to live. This is indeed their true thinking.
So, what is it that supports mortals and allows countless mortals to live?
Gu Qingyang had this question, and he thought about it for a long time.
And at the end, after who knew how much time had passed, Gu Qingyang himself also said leisurely:
"Fireworks in the world are the rarest things."
And after saying this, Gu Qingyang's spiritual body began to become extremely illusory.
At that time, his spiritual body gave people the feeling that he seemed to disappear at any time.
Fortunately, Gu Qingyang really found the answer to that question.
That answer is what he just said.
Human fireworks.
The so-called fireworks are actually the smoke of fireworks in this world. It is a unique emotion that can only exist between people.
This kind of emotion is most common between mortals who are related by blood. It is uncommon among mortals who are not related by blood, but it is not unheard of.
However, emotion is indeed a powerful force that is unimaginable. Because, as long as it is strong enough, it can dominate the state of mind.
A person, a bone cultivator, his behavior and style of doing things will basically be affected by his state of mind.
Whatever is on your mind, do it.
In the same way, whatever you think in your heart, you can live for. This is a truth and a law of survival.
After Gu Qingyang had this understanding, he was silently preparing to accept his own death, and was preparing to say goodbye to heaven at this last moment.
Of course, he has to do it in his own way.
However, just when he was making all preparations for these things, he saw a figure in the crowd around his spirit body.
