"protector."
Facing the rain, Chu Yunsheng shouted softly.
Every day, he contacted the guardian, but there was no reply. He thought there would be no exception this time, but at this moment, he just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
But a bolt of lightning struck in the heavy rain, splitting apart, and a power grid shrouded the sky above the speedboat. The blazing high temperature turned into a hazy gray mist, which spread around the speedboat, as if it was sailing into a quiet ghost land.
A tired and deep voice came from the mist——
"Come with me and I'll show you something."
From the mist, a figure gradually walked out, wearing a straight cyan uniform. It looked like some kind of extremely advanced system, but it was not an entity. It was similar to a light and shadow projection.
I can't see the face clearly, the face is blurry, I don't know who it is.
"Are you a guardian?"
Its sudden appearance surprised Chu Yunsheng. He stretched out his hand to stop the vampires in the cabin who were also frightened by seeing this scene, and guessed in a deep voice.
Qingying nodded, walked to the bow of the ship, and floated on the deck. When he got closer, he discovered that there was a colorful halo behind it. It was probably a trace caused by projection, but it looked like a certain god in Western mythology.
The Vampires are not believers, they are outcasts, and they do not have any piety or admiration. However, they are scared, panicked, and frightened because they are outcasts.
"What are you looking at?"
Chu Yunsheng had always been wary of the guardians, and he did not let up even at this moment.
"The one you want to see."
The guardian said calmly, his voice still low and tired.
"Why?"
Chu Yunsheng was silent for a moment, realized something, and asked.
"After reading it, you will know. Chu, I don't have much time. If you must give you a reason because you are always wary of me, just think of it as some compensation from me."
The guardian glanced at the cabin, and his eyes instantly became majestic. The hearts of all the vampires, including Wen Luo and others, were shaken violently, and they couldn't help but have the urge to worship. In less than a moment, the entire ship hall was filled with people kneeling one after another. Jingruo shivered, all of them lowered their heads, and no longer dared to look at this place, as if they were seeing gods.
With just one glance, Chu Yunsheng barely felt any mental fluctuations. He didn't notice the stimulating resonance wave. With just a simple glance, he instantly completed the similar mental influence or control that the multi-power tribe, the Drow and Song Ying had worked hard to exert.
Seemingly sensing the alarm in Chu Yunsheng's heart, the guardian said in a low voice: "There are some things they shouldn't see."
Then, it paused again and continued: "This is the most inconspicuous role of the spirit. If it weren't for the fact that the successor of the Lord of the Seven Nails was too far away from the earth, with her top spirit body, you wouldn't even have the chance to raise a gun. will not have."
"Let me tell you something that you may not like to hear but I must warn you. As the heir to the throne, you are too far away from her. If you meet her in the future, it is best to hide as far away as possible. In fact, To this day, I still can’t figure out why the owner of that book, the Soul Breaker, left the throne to you... Maybe he knows some secrets about creating my life that even I don’t know. That can be explained like this.”
"We have to hurry up. The space channel is very unstable. Come with me."
Finished. The guardian turned around and disappeared into a ripple gap behind him.
Chu Yunsheng frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then followed in without looking back.
The Guardians need him to protect the Seventh Age. Logically speaking, they would not deal with him at this time, and if they wanted to deal with him, the Guardian could have done it long ago, there was no need to wait until now.
Although his body and appearance now look more and more like his original self, he is still someone else's body after all. It can be used or discarded. The core is still in the zero dimension. It has the trinity of matter fragments, black energy and cubes. It is not easy for the guardian to plot against himself.
However, the power of the spirit that the guardian had just displayed made Chu Yunsheng wary, and he intuitively understood what the Sixth Order of Bones had said about the defeat of the Drow.
According to the memories and descriptions of the Six Sequences of Skeletons, the Drow never saw even the shadow of their enemy from beginning to end. Within a hundred thousand light-years, the music of death was played everywhere, and they were defeated again and again, until another god appeared. The difference between being able to survive and survive without being born can no longer be described as a gulf. It is almost an absolute life-and-death struggle to seize power.
Thinking about himself again, he is simply weak and pitiful. The shot that stabbed the god became a bit ridiculous at this moment. If it weren't for the distance, if it weren't for the counterattack left by his predecessors, he might not be able to stand in front of the successor of the Lord of the Seven Nails. Not even a speck of dust.
…
Crossing the ripple crack, there is no special feeling. I just feel that my body is a little stagnant, as if something has been replaced, but not completely. There is a feeling of disconnection.
The guardian was already waiting outside the crack. When he saw Chu Yunsheng following him, he did not look back. He cast his gaze towards the distance and saw the dense crowd of refugees, and said slowly: "Don't worry, we are still on the earth. This is the energy I temporarily built up." By borrowing the passage, only living beings like you and me, who are neither dead nor alive, can pass through. When you finish reading, you have to return it."
Chu Yunsheng raised his head and found that the rain here was much lighter. Looking further into the distance, the sky was full of light. It should be daytime, not the night when he came. If he was still on the earth, could he be in the Eastern Hemisphere?
"Where is this?"
He took a few steps forward and looked around. He was surrounded by wilderness and hills. He couldn't see the specific location, so he stopped and turned around and asked.
"Come with me and take a closer look!"
The guardian picked up Chu Yunsheng, took off, shuttled through the raindrops, and in a blink of an eye came to a deserted field on the edge of a road, and then said:
"We can't get any closer, otherwise their interference will cause the borrowed energy to collapse on its own, right here."
The road was crowded with people, large cars and small cars were jammed with water, and large and small bags were piled on the roofs of the cars. They were covered with raincloths and marched slowly to the west. The speed was so slow that it was almost stagnant and blocked.
There are just too many people!
There were all kinds of shouts, shouts, and calls for people looking for people, making it a mess, like a chaotic market.
"China?" Listening to their voices, Chu Yunsheng frowned. He said in a deep voice: "What exactly do you want me to see?"
The guardian didn't answer him because it was no longer needed. After Chu Yunsheng said the last sentence, he immediately stayed in place like a lightning strike. like a statue.
He saw a familiar shadow get out of a minibus, then opened an umbrella, and another familiar shadow walked out of the door.
"How, how, how is it possible!"
The blood all over Chu Yunsheng's body solidified. My head went blank, my mouth was open, and I could barely speak.
No one is more familiar with a man and a woman holding an umbrella than he is. Even until his death, he will never forget their appearance - they are the father and mother who worked so hard to raise him!
"No, how...they are, they are..."
After being stunned, he staggered, then jumped up and ran forward, but was grabbed by the defender.
"No! I brought you here. Not to let you rush forward, but to open up your heart. If you look again, you will understand." The guardian said solemnly.
"Why? It's obviously them, but I can't find them, why do they exist!?" The power of the guardian was so great that Chu Yunsheng couldn't break free, but the shock filled his consciousness.
He was sure that he could not mistake them, they were his father and mother, their figures. Chu Yunsheng has watched their backs and expressions for more than 20 years since he was a child. Very familiar.
So many years have passed, since their death, the relatives who can only be seen in dreams appear in front of him, within reach of his hand, how can he control himself! ?
The guardian didn't speak, only looked at it coldly. It seems to be waiting for something.
"Dad, Mom..."
Looking at his parents supporting each other and struggling to squeeze through the crowds on the muddy road in the rain, Chu Yunsheng's emotions were ups and downs, and he shouted tremblingly that he suspected that this was still a dream.
If the guardian gives him such conditions, even if he is not given a false spirit, he is willing to guard the seventh era for ten thousand years!
Tears mixed with the rain gradually blurred his vision. He covered his mouth tightly and stood blankly, already so happy that he didn't know what to do.
The huge happiness almost overwhelmed him instantly, and he would rather drown.
If this was a dream, he would rather never wake up!
At this moment, a third familiar shadow appeared. He got off a bus from behind and walked toward his father and mother. Through the rain curtain and hundreds of meters away, Chu Yunsheng was still there. Instantly, she was recognized!
It's Li, it's Li!
Li, who is haunted by his dreams!
He felt that he must be dreaming, hadn't he woke up yet?
This, how is this possible! ?
Chu Yunsheng no longer covered his mouth, but bit his hand. The painful feeling woke him up. He looked at the guardian again. At this time, he needed the guardian's affirmative answer.
After guessing what Chu Yunsheng was thinking, the guardian shook his head and said: "You are not dreaming, this is true——"
Before it finished speaking, Chu Yunsheng was so surprised that he desperately threw away the guardian. In order to break free, he did not hesitate to use a large amount of black energy to force the guardian to retreat, and then rushed towards the road like crazy.
He wants to see them, and he wants to tell them that he is still alive!
However,
However, he only ran forward for more than thirty meters, and then stopped stiffly.
Behind him, a deep sigh came from the guardian.
At this point, the second half of the sentence no longer needs to be said, because Chu Yunsheng himself has already seen the fourth "familiar" shadow get off the bus and squeeze step by step towards the other three people who are the only loves of his life. .
Indeed not...
The last person to appear looked like him, but was not him.
"He" was holding a three- or four-year-old girl in his arms. He took out a bottle of water from his backpack and handed it to his parents. The "family" talked with concern and asked what...
Sometimes they are sad, sometimes they sigh, sometimes they smile slightly with difficulty, but together as a family, they seem to be determined and can overcome any difficulties.
Like everyone else, they took advantage of the light rain to get out of the car to take a breath, helped each other to the roadside, and rested.
Chu Yunsheng stood in the rain, smiling sadly, and understood why the guardian wanted to hold him back, because he was superfluous, superfluous.
It was no longer his home, not his family, it was someone else's home, someone else's family.
He could only smile miserably, as the huge happiness and surprise turned into bubbles in his head in an instant. My heart is empty.
"Chu, they are not, maybe because of small changes. Maybe they are not named Chu anymore, do you understand? Originally, the time and space traps would be born one after another at least a thousand years apart. This will not happen. But this time An accident..." The guardian stepped forward and said worriedly.
"Can I take them with me?" Chu Yunsheng stared blankly at "his" but it was someone else's "family of five" and said quietly.
"Where can you take them? The new world, or the Kingdom of God you want to go to?" The guardian sighed: "In fact, I know better in your heart that they have nothing to do with you. They have their own lives, and they have their own lives." The joys, sorrows, and joys have their own lives. Your enemies are too many and too strong. It can bring them nothing but greater disaster."
"Are you asking me to watch them suffer here despite my ability?" Chu Yunsheng said after silence.
"Is it suffering? They suffered the same floods and great changes as everyone else, so why did they suffer?" the guardian asked.
"But I can at least let them live in the new world safely and without worries about food and clothing." Chu Yunsheng shook his head.
"Then how are you going to let them face you? Son, or savior? How will the woman you are obsessed with face you and her husband at the same time? Do you want that little girl to call you uncle or dad? ?" the guardian said with biting sarcasm.
Chu Yunsheng wanted to say something else, but the guardian sighed and said: "Chu, you have already destroyed their life, do you want to destroy their life again!?"
Chu Yunsheng remained silent. Looking at the road.
The guardian stepped forward and continued: "They are no longer your relatives, they have no blood or emotional relationship with you, and they will no longer know you. You are already strangers."
"Even with the low-level technology of the Drow, you can clone people exactly like them, but will they be your relatives? Not to mention the time and space trap established by the life forms that created me. Only every Those who escaped with Ji Zi will not appear again, which is why you can't search for those old acquaintances."
"But because of the Sixth Age, I understand you. So I brought you here to take a look. I just want you to understand that the person you care about is dead and can never come back. Even if it is the same person, It’s no longer them. Moreover, you have experienced nodes and will have many fantasies. If I don’t take you to see it, because of the special nature of the Seventh Epoch, you will eventually go crazy like the Cambrian predecessors and cannot tell the difference. Clear away the reality, completely confuse reality and collapse, and then go back to your old path."
"Chu, whether you admit it or not, you have gone too far, further than the previous six years. You can't go back, not in this life."
"The religion of this land says that children are here to complain, collect debts, repay debts and repay gratitude. Just think that if you come to their home once and eventually destroy their family, no matter how much debt you have, they will be paid off and they will not owe you anything. You, don't even think about repaying any kindness in this life. According to the custom here, kowtow and bow, it is said to be saying goodbye to the past, and let them live and die in peace like everyone else."
Chu Yunsheng smiled miserably, turned back to look at the guardian, and watched intently.
What it said was correct. Chu Yunsheng understood these truths. If the guardian didn't take him to see it once today, and if he really encountered it after entering the new world, he thought he would definitely go crazy.
He also knew that even though they were close in front of him, he could not recognize each other because he was no longer the big egg he was before, his hands were already stained with blood that could not be washed away, and they were no longer the same as before...
So, he said nothing more, turned his head, and slowly knelt down in the direction of the highway. His knees sank into the muddy soil, and he pressed his hands on the waterlogged depressions, looking at the faces of his "relatives" who were thinking about him day and night. , thinking about the voices and smiles of his parents in the past, thinking about Li's appearance, and thinking about his own life, tears fell down his cheeks, and he knocked down heavily——
This bow is to repay parents for raising their children!
This bow is to thank parents for their hard work in raising children!
This bow is to tell parents that their son has been here once, and today he will leave again!
With this bow, my son will never come back!
…
With this bow, from now on, the eternal alliance will only exist in one person's heart.
After this worship, he wandered alone until his death.
With this prayer, I hope you can live a good life.
…
This bow, from now on, farewell!
With this bow, from now on, new life begins!
…
"Let's go!"
The guardian pulled up Chu Yunsheng, who was already in tears, and sighed.
…
In the distance, the woman who looked exactly like Li in Chu Yunsheng's memory looked up strangely, pulled the man holding the child, pointed here, frowned and said: "Husband, that person is so strange, I saw it without?"
The man also had a strange look on his face: "Yeah, I just saw it, it was a little weird."
An older woman next to him suddenly interjected with a gloomy expression: "If your brother were still alive, he would be this old by now."
Another old man wearing glasses who supported her said: "It's all from that year's almanac. I'm old, I'm old. Why do you think of this?"
The little girl in the young man's arms opened her hands and threw herself into the older woman's arms. She made a milky sound and mumbled inarticulately: "Grandma, grandma, you still have me."
The old woman raised her eyebrows and smiled, and kissed the little girl: "My Niuniu is still the best."
The young woman held her husband's arm and nestled in the man's arms under the big umbrella. Looking at the strange lonely shadow in the rain, she said sympathetically: "Husband, he looks so pitiful, as if he doesn't have any relatives. , alone, like a dog."
The young man smiled strangely: "Dog?"
The young woman crawled into the man's arms, her face filled with happiness: "Well, a dog without a home..."
