Chief Feng's voice stopped.
"Yeah." Su Mingan looked into his eyes.
"Thank you for your hard work... Feng Changzewan."
Hearing this, Xiboer blinked in confusion, and her body gradually became conscious.
...Su Mingan? "She said softly, her voice barely audible.
"Well, you're awake? Su Mingan nodded and responded to her
...Su Mingan? "As if she was afraid of disturbing something, she called out again.
"Um."
"...Do you still remember me? I didn't start over?" Her voice began to tremble. When he met her eyes, Su Mingan's eyes were very quiet.
"Of course." He said, "I signed a contract with you that I will never regret, and I said I will win with you until the end."
He said: "If you break the promise, you will break my limbs and lock me in the basement."
He said: "...I will not break the promise."
Tears burst into Sibor's eyes.
Like warm wind blowing through the deserted grassland in her heart, her cold soul experienced such strong warmth for the first time.
The emotions shown by a child who has never been loved are too obvious.
She once thought that she could only gain eternal loneliness, cruelty and desolation.
...and she finally found a candy.
... Along the long river of time, in the stones on the river bank... She found her candy. She turned her head and saw Chief Feng standing under a barrier. He was covered by a mask-like barrier, isolated from the outside world. In those muddy, somewhat distracted eyes,
Reflecting her appearance.
On his head, he wore a sacrificial crown with bright red ribbons.
A few years ago, when there was still the old custom of lava sacrifice, animals that jumped into the lava had to wear such a crown to perform the ceremony.
At this moment, he was wearing such a bright red crown on his head.
The twisting, spreading black thread of the curse has spread over his whole body. He is like a twisted monster, standing under the isolation barrier, watching her.
["Adventurer, don't think that just because you are the 'strongest' adventurer you can ignore the curse - even the strongest leader among us will die if the curse occurs. "] ["Death is fair to everyone. 】This is what Siboer said to Su Mingan on the first day.
...But death is never fair.
To her, to him, to everyone.
never
fundamental,
It's not fair.
"Chief Feng, what are you doing hiding in there? Come out." She said, "Finally, everything has been said..."
You should hug me instead. "
Chief Feng said nothing.
He stretched out his hand, passed through the barrier in front of him, took her hand, and pulled her forward a few steps.
He pulled her hand from his left shoulder to the back of his neck.
He didn't hug her. He was covered in mud and blood. How could he pollute her?
She is now as clean as a newborn. She is out of the control of the tentacles. He can no longer drag her into the abyss. They are blood relatives.
For countless misunderstandings, countless unspeakable truths, countless cruel tragedies... he wanted to make it up to her once.
…even though it’s too late.
A jet-black energy spread up from her arms and poured into his riddled body.
She still has some cursed aura left in her body. He was completely purified and emptied, and the black line still entered the back of his neck.
"Let go, Feng Qiqi." She said, "I forgive you."
He looked at her with regret and struggle in his eyes.
...it's too late.
...The misunderstanding was resolved at the end, and the apology was said at the end, too late.
People used to repeat various sacrificial acts day after day.
They sacrificed blood, slaughtered livestock, killed living people, and pushed children into lava, thinking that in this way, their
"Piety" can reach heaven and make the day come.
These cruel and senseless acts have become extremely "orthodox" here.
The chief did not approve of these actions at first because he was the direct victim.
But after leaving the burning forest and taking over the position of young patriarch, he gradually saw the whole world clearly.
…Faith rules stubbornly and heresy is not tolerated.
... Curses and natural disasters are everywhere, and it is difficult for humans to survive amidst the evil intentions.
...The evil god is merciless and treats human beings as pigs and dogs, toying with the creatures in the palm of his hand.
It is too difficult for people to survive.
In order to make good use of this double-edged sword called "faith" that allows people to survive, he must integrate into cruel rituals and obey absurd oracles so that the current stable situation can continue.
...What he wanted to do was kill the source of belief in the evil god. In order to save his sister, he set a fire in the tribe, and because of the fire he set, he wanted to kill the sister he had saved with his own hands.
Destiny has always been a disgusting thing.
He considers himself a foolish man.
... He has been confused for a long time in his thoughts and sobriety, and now he finally found the answer. Ignorance cannot be despised. This is a necessary factor to maintain the world.
As the most sane person, he must dance with stupidity, keep company with ignorance, and maintain divine authority with meaningless rituals.
Deceiving everyone with absurd oracles.
To obtain the sword and the sword made of people's beliefs
"Xi Boer, when Su Ming'an becomes a hundred gods and overthrows that black wall... I hope you will let go of everything."
Chief Feng said: "No one or God... can force you anymore."
"Despicable people will be at peace." Siboer said.
"It's not Shen Mian." Chief Feng said, "You were born to belong to An Ning."
He held her hand tightly and wouldn't let go.
"We have never really had our own lives, Siboer." He said: "Now, the power of God Nine has been suppressed, and the inheritance of the Zewan family cannot be cut off. I hope you-"
"You still want to preach to me? Feng Qiqi!" Siboer suddenly raised his voice: "—You want to say sorry to me now? If you want to say sorry to me, stay alive! Say it to me every day!"
"..." Chief Feng: "...I'm sorry."
"Bang!"
Siboer punched the barrier.
There are many reasons to choose to hate. She should hate him, extremely strongly, hating him for killing her countless times.
...But there is only one reason to choose love. She couldn't help herself from choosing love.
She won't learn to face this situation with just reason;
Although death has passed before her eyes countless times, she has never been able to look at it calmly.
She always thought that since the number of do-overs was unlimited, she would definitely achieve the best ending. Redeem all lives that should not be extinguished, and save all those who can be saved. Rejecting accidents and mistakes, she will use her countless lives to start over and her weak body to find a way to a perfect ending.
...But this time, there is no him in the perfect ending.
"Preaching has become a weapon you are good at. I will suffer for the rest of my life because of these few words of yours." Siboer said,
"Then I congratulate you for having this life." Chief Feng said.
"You're making me angry again," Sibor said.
She looked at the chief, watching him take off the bright crown on his head.
"The Zewan inheritance family cannot be cut off, Jiu Shen has also fallen into a deep sleep, and you have escaped the control of the tentacles."
Chief Feng said:
"Siborzevan, promise me..."
He placed the bright red sacrificial crown on her head.
His voice was filled with forbearing tenderness,
"...From now on, you are...
He put down his hand and looked at her steadily:
"The patriarch of the sky."
At this moment, the cursed black mud burst out from his body.
As if feeling tired, his palms dropped weakly, and his body was as light as falling into the clouds...
"...I'm sorry, Sibor." He said:
“…We all have a bad lot.
But fortunately...this time, you survived.
fine. "
"Bullshit," Sieber said.
He said nothing.
His eyelids slowly closed, a little at a time.
Suddenly, the curse with claws and fangs burst out of his body, like a twisted demon, spreading crazily on Siboer's hands. The warm, soft skin quickly turned into running water and completely slipped from her fingers.
Then the solid and powerful body shattered and fell down like a tower collapsing, dissipating into the air, leaving nothing behind.
She never cried.
When her mother was burned to death and her father died due to a curse, she didn't even cry.
Even now, she still looks calm and has not shed a single tear.
"Feng Qiqi, you died again."
"...You always die so ugly."
she says.
She still kept her position against the back of his neck, touching the black mud in vain until she was pulled away by Su Ming'an who was replenishing the barrier.
As the sludge falls and collapses,
This natural chasm connected by faith, growth, and pain has finally been crossed by her.
She stood, stiff.
Until he let out a desperate, blood-drenched cry like a wounded beast.
[The little girl in red robe walked up to the little boy: "Feng Qiqi! Where did you go? You went crazy again. Mom can't find you anywhere!"
"Don't call me Feng Qiqi, call me the Dark Lord - I want to lead the children out to sea!" The little boy was very excited.
"Sea? What is the sea?"
"You don't understand this, don't you? The sea is something outside. In order to go to the sea, I will not be the leader of this bad clan.
I'll leave those disgusting things like the oracle sacrifice to you later. "
"Hmph, then I will definitely see the sea before you do. Just wait, I will definitely throw you the position of patriarch and make you unable to see the sea for the rest of your life..."
"How vicious! Sissi, you are so vicious! I am different, I am very generous. If I can see the sea in the future,
I will definitely give you the opportunity...
"Then what if the gods drag me to worship the gods?"
"...Then I will help you kill the gods."]
"Ding dong!"
[You have reached the (Captain) character ending: HE Heart Flower] [(Heart Flower):
"Only when a person acts according to his own will, his soul will be radiant."
"People dance with death, walk with absurdity, forcibly dull and remain ignorant for the sake of glory and wisdom for hundreds of years."
“…and we are just a bunch of short-sighted, self-righteous saviors” hoping to see people’s free souls fly away. "
"For the necessity of divine speech,"
"...I am willing to indulge in false ignorance with my people."
"...Sissi, I'm sorry."] Above the mud,
Siboer took out a rotten colored candy from his arms, suddenly raised his hand and flicked it -
“Bang!
Candy enters the rain-proof barrier below and bounces a few times. Will it be wiped out by the poisonous rain?
"It sucks," she said. "It sucks!"
She had imagined time and time again that she could resolve the misunderstanding and run towards the sun and the sea with him.
...But Shuiyuan could only see this man's high-flying soul leaving her.
So many misunderstandings, so many deaths, this time, he gave them all back to her.
So she could never hate him.
Never.
"Su Ming'an." She said: "I know clearly that this is the best route, but I still can't help it. I want to reincarnate and see the person who hates me but is still alive."
"You have no chance." Su Mingan said: If Jiu Shen had not lied just now and fell into a deep sleep, Wandi would not have reincarnated in fifteen days, and there would be no way back. "
Sieber wiped his eyes.
"You're kidding." She looked at him: "This is already the best ending, there's... no turning back."
"He said he gave me the opportunity to see the sea." She said: "...I want to take everyone in Qingdi to see it together."
"Yeah." Su Mingan said, "This is... the best ending."
He picked up the bracelet that was stained with blood and mud from the ground.
On the bracelet,
A black python biting the scorching sun shone on his fingertips.
Chief Feng is the most complicated person he has ever seen.
[People who rely on sensory and rational evidence are regarded as heretics and betrayals. What people call "blind faith" is based on countless "untrustworthiness". 】【All loyal believers have the ability to "close their eyes and ears" and disdain "things that are not worth seeing or hearing". 】【... And because of this, they can be extremely steadfast, and their strength also comes from this. 】【The awe of higher beings, the desire for happiness, moral wisdom, and unified group consciousness...make them extremely powerful under this promoted ignorance. 】【This is what I believe. 】【…】【The same is true for people. 】【Perfect clearance progress: 85%】Siboer stayed in the first tribe to rebuild after the disaster.
Su Ming'an accompanied her and traveled throughout the land of the First Tribe. Wearing a sacrificial crown, she, like Feng Chang, chose to bury the truth about the two gods.
Because she had signed a contract with God Nine, she still could not abandon God Nine's faith, but her mind was freer than ever before.
She was the only one left in the Zewan family. After Diansi surrendered to Su Mingan, no one dared to go against Siboer who had the support of Baishen.
While gathering the corpse and passing by the corner of the square, Siboer saw two figures closely together.
A big man holding a stone in his hand, leaning against his mother who had half turned into mud.
The man was leaning against the wall, as quiet as a silkworm cocoon. His head rested on the woman's rotten shoulder, and his hands were on her neck, still in a child-like kissing manner.
The thin coat still clung to the old woman's body, like a warm embrace. What was under the clothes was no longer complete skin, but a pile of dead bones covered in black mud.
The sheets and mattress absorbed the decaying tissue fluids, keeping her soft tissues dry.
The man was tightly wrapped in a cotton coat, and the bones of his face were pressed against the brim of a white velvet hat, as if he was whispering something.
The flies on the windowsill flew up, and a rotten stench came out after a while.
Siboer, wearing a black cross-collared sacrificial robe, walked up to him.
"Shh..." Changsheng's tone was very soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing his dead mother: "The game is over, mother is sleeping.
"Ah." Siboer said dryly: "Good night."
"She said she was doing magic, and when I became obedient, sensible, and stopped playing around, she woke up." Changsheng said, "...I have been doing what my mother said before going to bed, putting my hand on the back of her neck. I'm here. I'm very obedient.
Very obedient…”
Sieber didn't answer.
Tu Yuan's tears, which had not been shed all this time, suddenly slipped from her eyes and flowed out uncontrollably.
[They just want to survive. 】【—Why can’t we even save a group of such despicable and short-sighted guys? 】
"Be obedient." She said, "Chang Sheng, you are just like me...very obedient."
She turned around and heard Changsheng's familiar, cheerful children's songs,
This children's song is more prophetic than her.
[Black lamb, jump quickly~] [Black crow, fly quickly~] [Black python, crawl quickly~] [A fairy tale of a rotting corpse~] [From its heart... 】【…Blooming flowers of the gods~】
"Feng Qiqi." Siboer murmured: "...I have no relatives anymore."
She stood there, motionless, and her shadow was stretched very, very long.
She stood there for a long time, as if she was praying alone,
It's like saying a silent farewell.
