After listening to Su Lanxi's words, Ma Tao's head buzzed.
Regardless of what he said at the beginning, Ma Tao really has no desire to avenge the two women now.
In this crisis-ridden world where he might die at any time, Ma Tao just needs a strong teammate. It was only through an unexpected combination of circumstances that he met the two sisters of the Su family. But knowing each other does not mean that he has to fight for his life. Ma Tao knows that he still has Very weak, but Ma Tao believes that he can work hard to become stronger, but no one knows when exactly, maybe a few years, maybe decades, maybe in the end he will be like the old people here, relying on memories of the past. The story slowly gets older.
If Ma Tao can wait, can Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi wait? Ma Tao didn't know, he just felt that since God gave the two girls a chance, he shouldn't let them crawl around in danger and worry all day long. The only thing he didn't expect was that his sister Su Lanxi had feelings for him. , and I also have such a good impression of her, which is very fatal and dangerous.
Like means reluctance and inability to let go. If Ma Tao has feelings for Su Lanxi, he doesn't want her to get hurt, so he has such an idea.
"Ma Tao"
Perhaps because he was overthinking it, Su Lan burst into laughter, wiped the corners of his eyes, and forced a sweet smile to Ma Tao.
"I can stay, but can I tell you a story at the end?"
Su Lanyu on the side opened her mouth when she saw that her sister actually agreed. She wanted to say something but didn't say anything.
Ma Tao thought for a while, it was just a story, and Su Lanxi had already agreed to stay. The chance of the two people meeting again was basically zero. The goal had been achieved, so he just listened and nodded in agreement.
"Once upon a time, there were two good carefree sisters. The elder sister was optimistic and cheerful, and the younger sister was introverted and stubborn. They had a not very big but very happy home. They lived in a very remote small village. This small village was very weird. The village It was covered by a black bunker on all sides, including the sky. Above its head were various lighting equipment instead of the sun, moon and stars, sealing the people in the village inside like an inverted bowl. It was both strong and tall, and they lived in it. There has always been a ban in the village that no one is allowed to open the door outside the wall. It is absolutely not allowed. It is said that this rule has been passed down for hundreds of years and is still enforced today. Everyone in the village They are very curious about the world outside that door, especially children. Those children have asked many people. Their parents said that there are man-eating beasts outside, and the old people said that there are bottomless cliffs outside. The young man said that there was another world full of dangers outside, but my sister thought that the unknown world outside the wall was the fairy tale world mentioned in the book. Unfortunately, all the children did not believe it and said that what she said was false. Children often go there to play, especially the sisters, who will lie on the iron gate to listen to the world outside. Unfortunately, the iron gate is too thick and they can't hear anything. This intensifies their curiosity. Time flies. The two sisters have grown up. The elder sister chooses to practice martial arts and practices the village sword skills every day instead of attending classes. The younger sister is better at studying and is left in the academy to continue learning knowledge. However, the younger sister still remembers her persistence as a child. Until one day, she was stubborn. In order to prove that the world outside the wall is the world of fairy tales, my sister secretly stole the key to the village chief's house and came to the thick iron door with excitement. My sister carefully inserted the key into the keyhole. The door opened, but outside the iron gate was not a fairy tale world, but a wasteland of city. All the houses and streets were covered with moss, and the mountains and plains were green. As far as the eye could see, many big trees and shrubs fell through the windows of collapsed buildings. They grew up tenaciously, and the village where they have lived for generations was built on these ruins. Miraculously, the high walls in the village would be invisible from the outside, if it weren't for the open iron door behind them. Just like a space door suspended in the void connecting two worlds, my sister really felt that she had stepped into another world. The outside world was so big that she could not see the edge at a glance. This was the first time that my sister saw the outside world. Only then did I realize that the sky was blue, and I finally saw the white clouds in the textbook. They were really beautiful, and there were all kinds of them. My sister wandered around aimlessly, curiously looking here and studying there. She was very happy because she could finally tell her childhood friends what the outside world was like. Although it was not the same as imagined in fairy tales, it had a different kind of beauty. Just the blue sky and white clouds were enough. It had been three days and three nights, but a sense of crisis suddenly made my sister shiver all over. The girl, who was picking various flowers and plants with a childlike innocence, suddenly stood up. In front of her were a dozen men wearing fine iron armor. At this moment They also looked at their sister who was collecting flowers and plants in front of them with equally surprised faces. They probably did not expect that there would be a woman here. At this time, the sister still did not notice the dangerous approach. On the contrary, she was stupid because she met a stranger outside her village. Silly said hello to them, and the dozen strangers in armor rubbed their eyes in unison to make sure that the woman in front of them was not an illusion. They glanced at each other and surrounded the woman like a swarm of bees. It was ridiculous that the sister still Thinking that this was a way of welcoming others from the outside world, she actually waited for them to surround her with a smile. It wasn't until these people extended their claws to the private parts of her body, tore her clothes to pieces, and sealed her mouth that she She knew these people were bad guys, but it was too late. She had already fallen into the clutches of the devil and could not escape. Facing these dozen gangsters, she tried her best to resist, but her fists could not withstand four hands, and she was soon killed. She was pinned to the ground and couldn't move. My sister felt very regretful at this moment. She regretted that she shouldn't have listened to the old people's words, but it was too late. Just when her sister was about to give up resistance, a scream saved her, and only one of them took off her clothes. The man in armor who was hugging his sister with a smile on his face was stabbed through the heart with a knife. He stared in disbelief and looked at the stabbed chest in fear and fell down weakly. He closed his eyes and couldn't die. After he died again, he looked up and saw his sister miraculously appearing next to his sister and stabbing her with the crucial knife. Later I found out that it was my sister who came to give her new clothes that day, but she couldn't find her. I asked all the way to find out. After talking about the village chief's lost key, my sister thought quickly and thought of her sister for a moment. The anxious sister rushed to the wall. When she saw the open iron door, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. I rescued my sister here after following her footprints, but those armored men were not vegetarians. At this moment, I saw another woman, and she also killed their teammates. How could I not go crazy? They all screamed and rushed up. At first , my sister was able to kill two of them with the blade in her hand and a sneak attack. Later, they all put on armor. That thing couldn't be cut or pierced with a knife. When it was struck with a knife, it left a white mark. Nothing happened to the other party, but my sister tried her best and finally finally Forget it, I saved my sister, but my body was also scratched and bruised by the weapons of those armored men. The skin that was once as fair and smooth as snow became scarred. The two of them stumbled back all the way, and those people were chasing after them. The scary thing was those The armored man actually knew how to control various monsters to stop the two sisters. The two sisters, who were panicking, got lost outside the wall. When they were about to be captured by the armored men, the village chief led many people to fight back. Those people and monsters, but no one was happy. The parents of the two sisters stepped forward with tears in their eyes and slapped each of the two girls. The corners of their mouths were bleeding, but the sister didn't know what was wrong. The village chief sighed and said: This is all fate, and took all the villagers back to the village. The two devastated sisters followed their parents back home. Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the door, their mother hugged them in pain, and their father began to say nothing. Smoking, my mother finally cried until she became silent. She turned around and started to pack her things. After a while, she gave each of the sisters a package and asked them to leave quickly. The younger sister still didn't understand what happened. She was stubborn and still thought that the door was going to be there. It would be fine if he never went out again, but the result was not that. That night, the whole village was extremely quiet. The whole village was shrouded in an inexplicable sadness. No one was sleeping. All the old people looked at the wall outside the window in a daze. All the mothers held their children tightly in their arms, and all the fathers held on to all the weapons they could find in the village, waiting for something unknown. Then, suddenly, all the walls collapsed, leaving countless gaps. The monsters rushed in like a scourge, and countless gangsters were plundering everywhere. The men in the village resisted bravely, but soon fell into a pool of blood. Women and children were crying and being dragged by the gangsters, knocking over vehicles and containers. They were taken away in a big box of almost the same size, and the two sisters were also separated that day. The younger sister was crushed under the rubble by the collapsed house and fainted. When she woke up again, the peaceful and peaceful village of the past was no longer there. Broken bricks and tiles are everywhere, the house is burning with billowing smoke, the broken walls, the blood on the ground has turned black and even solidified and dried up. My sister is crying and calling her parents' name, calling her sister's name, how much she hopes she can Someone she knew told her that everything in front of her was an illusion, but no one answered her. Her sister searched for a long time, and finally looked at everything in front of her and couldn't believe that it was all caused by herself. Looking around, everyone except her She, no one could survive. At this moment, she wanted to chop off her hands. If she could restore everything here, then, the billowing black smoke burning here attracted a caravan, and they discovered the ruins. I gave my sister some food, but I didn’t expect that these people were not kind. The caravan boss took advantage of his sister’s beauty and deceived her into taking revenge on her, planning to take her body. However, he was inadvertently killed. His sister discovered his conspiracy, and the caravan boss saw that his evil plan was exposed, and he showed his fierceness. He planned to use force that night, but he was bitten off a piece of meat by his sister instead. The angry caravan boss took her to the black market in anger, and originally planned to She was given to the people here to discipline her for a few days and then she was taken back after she became honest and obedient. However, the caravan owner suddenly fell in love with something in the black market and sold his sister to the black market. In those days, the poor My sister's life in the black market was worse than that of a pig or a dog, and she was tortured to the point of death. She was already planning to accept her fate. As for revenge? Even her future life is unknown. How dare she expect that she will serve whoever she is sold to from now on, and her whole life will pass like this. But she never imagined that God has eyes, and after experiencing so much suffering, God finally A good man was arranged for her, and she was able to meet her sister again. Although this benefactor was sometimes silly, he was the best person her sister had ever met in her life besides her family. He was like Li Ming's That light dispelled all the darkness in my sister's heart, broke all fears, and found the answer to continue living. My sister will remember him all her life and will never forget him. Originally, my sister had decided to follow him no matter how difficult and difficult the road ahead was. She stayed with him through thick and thin, even if it meant death, she wanted to be with him, but that good man... chose to abandon her sister again. Her sister was very scared because she didn't know how she would spend her days without this good man. Like a small boat lost on the sea, faced with the fear of losing the lighthouse to guide the way, it became frightened and uneasy again..." Su Lanxi became more and more sad when he said it, and finally broke down in tears and covered his face in tears. Su Lanyu on the side also listened with his eyes. She was slightly red, but she didn't cry and held her sister tightly in her arms.
"I………"
Ma Tao didn't know what to say. This was obviously Su Lanxi's own story. It could be said that he had gone through many hardships. Ma Tao really didn't know how to comfort the two of them.
"Don't worry, I will definitely take revenge. I just don't want you to get hurt. I really don't want to abandon you..."
After much consideration, Ma Tao explained.
"My sister just doesn't want to... forget it... stop talking about this."
Su Lanyu comforted Su Lanxi in her arms and then answered for her.
"I'm very curious, are you a man? Since we are not afraid, what are you worried about? For us, living is already a second life. This is equivalent to a picked life. We bear the burden of the entire village. The hatred must not and will not be left undisturbed like this. In other words, do you want us to take revenge ourselves or not?"
This question left Ma Tao speechless. He simply didn't want them to be hurt again, but it seemed impossible now.
"She's right..."
A voice came from the corner of the cabin. The three heard it and turned around. It was Uncle Guang.
"In this chaotic world, everyone is lucky to be alive. There are many people carrying various burdens forward, such as glory, hatred, and mission. Those who are overwhelmed by them all can't breathe. Who can carry them? Those who carry a burden forward deserve to be respected, and those who are weighed down by a burden cannot be laughed at, because the burden on everyone's shoulders is different in weight and severity. Since we are destined to move forward with a heavy load, why not live a more free and easy life, consider So much, all in vain and adding weight to oneself, life is very tiring, I think the ending of the story should be beautiful and happy, but the process must be difficult, am I right, kid?"
As he spoke, Uncle Guang glanced around Ma Tao and the three of them. Finally, he looked at Su Lanxi who was leaning on his sister's arms and had just stopped crying and still had red eyes.
"Girl, you have found a good man who knows how to think about you and doesn't want to see you hurt."
Then he looked at Ma Tao and asked him
"A girl is willing to be with you, no matter you are poor or rich, no matter the danger or safety. This should have been a vow made at some important ceremony, but she has vividly demonstrated it. Since you don't want to hurt, first don't hurt yourself."
"Thanks…"
After listening to Uncle Guang's words, Su Lanxi obviously understood what Uncle Guang meant to help him, and he was very grateful.
"I also believe that the ending of the story is beautiful and happy, Ma Tao, do you believe it?"
"I believe"
Three simple words represent an attitude. Ma Tao's answer gave everyone the answer,
"Don't wait until you are like me to realize that there are too many things you regret in the past. Let's go and have breakfast together. I'll greet them."
After Uncle Guang finished speaking, he smiled kindly at them, turned around and left again.
Is it true that whenever someone is depressed or faced with a dilemma, there is always a mentor-like person who appears to solve the problem? Ma Tao doesn't know, but he knows that Uncle Guang is a guide who has given him a direction.
None of the three people spoke. After having breakfast in silence, they said goodbye to everyone here who was indifferent to the world.
Finally, Uncle Guang gave Ma Tao a simple hand-drawn map and told him the direction to go out and some things he knew.
According to what he said, if you keep walking south, you will pass a grand canyon in about an hour. After leaving the grand canyon, there is a large town over there. This is also the nearest way, but Ma Tao and the others left the chariot behind. They had to go outside to get it, so Uncle Guang told them a few more landmarks and seat features that were convenient for Ma Tao to compare. Until Ma Tao understood, he brought them some food and water, and the three of them continued On the road.
We walked through the dense woods again, combining the map given by Uncle Guang and the memories we had when we arrived, trying our best to avoid the attack and detection of golden ants, for no other reason than that once we get entangled with these little guys, we would easily get lost chasing them. Such a big ant The forest is covered with green trees, so it is quite difficult to find the original route. If you don't chase the player, he will keep attacking you, which is very annoying.
Although golden ants are expensive, it is precisely because of their price that greedy people will be buried in this endless primeval forest and turned into the nourishment of trees. Unless they encounter the kind of people who don't know how to escape, the three of them will take out their weapons and fill their heads with weapons. Khan fought for a while, but there were only a few like this after all, and he didn’t encounter one along the way.
For monsters like golden ants that have their own light coordinates and are not afraid of being exposed, as long as you are willing, you can avoid them. Passing by the lonely grave again, Ma Tao stroked the rifle in his hand. God will not let him miss every time. Maybe This must be the only passive skill he carries as a time traveler. Ma Tao couldn't help but smile knowingly when he thought about this.
When we arrived, the three of us walked from day to night. Because we didn’t know the road, we probably turned around in circles without knowing it. Now that we had the map in our hands and the experience in our minds, we found that the journey was not as expected. After such a long time, only five or six hours, the green chariot with the black V logo appeared in front of the three people again.
