When do humans call death?
This question made Xia Le stunned.
Stop breathing? wrong!
Heart stops beating? It doesn’t seem right either!
Amid the cries of loved ones, the body was put into a heavy wooden coffin and buried under the dust?
Not right either! ! !
Death, what exactly is it?
In the next second, Roger raised his head with a smile, looked at the sky, and gave his answer.
"When do people die?"
"When you were shot in the heart?"
"The body was hanged on the execution platform?"
"Suffering from an incurable terminal disease?"
"When you know that you don't have much time, but you haven't realized your dreams, and you feel discouraged?"
"No, neither is right!"
Roger grinned.
"It's time to be forgotten by the world!"
"So, you ask me if I have any regrets?"
"I can give you this answer."
After a pause, Roger turned his head with a smile and looked at the woman walking in the yard behind with hot pork rib soup.
"I have no regrets!"
"Because I will always live!"
Then, the man stood up and walked toward the woman, laughing all the way. When he took the pork rib soup, he shouted that it was hot, which prompted the woman to remind him to be careful.
Xia Le turned his head and looked at this scene, suddenly stunned.
What is death? What is regret?
or.
What does it mean to be alive?
Are you waiting to die in happiness with enough food and water every day? Or do you work hard for the dream in your heart until the moment of death?
Perhaps, this is all about living, as long as you follow your heart's desires and realize the freedom of individual thoughts.
"Xia Le, come over for dinner!"
Lujiu's laughter came, waking up Xia Le who was deep in thought.
This made him shake his head to dispel the unanswerable philosophical question in his mind, stood up with a smile, and walked over.
For five months, he, Roger and Lujiu basically lived together. Crocodile, Barrett and others built a yard for him next door to the couple.
Every once in a while, Evans and the others would deliver ingredients.
Then, Lujiu took on the responsibility of cooking.
"I've always been curious, Xia Le, what do you do?"
"Are you married yet? I can introduce you to Nina in the village."
"Don't be like Roger, who didn't get married until you were old."
"I'm the only one who likes him."
During the meal, Lujiu said with a smile, not forgetting the silly Roger next to DISS.
"I'm in no hurry."
Xia Le could only refuse awkwardly, lowered his head and ate silently.
Judging from the appearance, Roger and his wife are both rare good people, like the most ordinary civilians, living their every day without any trouble.
During this period, apart from learning swordsmanship, it was also a rare peaceful time for Xia Le.
Swordsmanship training continued, but he knew very well that it would eventually end.
In the blink of an eye, I have spent nearly a year on Badelila Island.
"This is God's avoidance!"
Roger took back the long knife in his hand and said softly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly bent over and coughed violently. When he slowly straightened up and removed his palm, the pool of blood in his palm was extremely red.
Xia Le turned around, looked at the blood on his palm, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Over the past two months, Roger's physical condition has been getting worse and worse. It was a kind of weakness that was visible to the naked eye, as if the essence in his body was being rapidly withdrawn by an invisible presence.
But even so, when facing the sea, this man can still swing a slash that splits everything.
The chasm in front stretched to unknown directions, splitting the entire sea in half.
Just now, the other party was teaching him a few moves in his life, God avoid.
A perfect combination of overlord-colored entanglement, combined with one's own sword skills, to unleash a powerful slash.
"That's all I can teach you."
Roger said with a smile.
He didn't care about the blood on his palms.
Xia Le nodded, suddenly waved the saber in his hand, and slashed towards the sea ahead.
"Buzz!"
The powerful slash shattered everything, and the boundless sea was quickly divided, revealing the bottomless chasm in it.
At the same time, the word "God's Avoidance" also appeared on the system panel.
This is not only the name of this slashing move, but also the sum of Roger's extremely condensed swordsmanship throughout his life.
"Your talent is amazing."
"I don't have much time, so I thought I wouldn't be able to teach you much."
Roger looked at the cut sea in front of him and nodded happily.
Xia Le was silent. He suddenly felt a little heavy at the moment.
"Time is up!"
Roger said softly.
He suddenly grasped the sword Ace in his hand, raised it, and pointed it at Xia Le.
"This may be the last showdown in my life!"
"Let me see how much you have learned from me!"
Xia Le was silent and motionless.
"Wandering will not make you move forward. Hesitation and hesitation are the biggest obstacles!"
"Xia Le, you don't need me to teach you this, right?"
Roger laughed.
His face was pale, and the sea breeze was blowing, like a willow in the wind, and it seemed that he would fall down at any time.
Hearing this, Xia Le took a deep breath, slowly raised the saber in his hand, and pointed it at the opponent.
"My physical strength is not enough to last for too long."
"So, let's put an end to it with the sword skills you have learned in the past year!"
Roger laughed.
"good!"
Xia Le nodded.
The next second, a bright light erupted along the coast of Badelila Island. The waves receded and time seemed to have stopped for several breaths.
"God avoids!"
The same voice, the same moves, echoed between heaven and earth.
The waves exploded, forming a boiling, undulating, roaring rainstorm all over the sky, pouring down.
"Plop!"
A figure fell softly to the ground, and the saber in his hand also fell.
"You're ready to go."
"Xia Le!"
Xia Le stood quietly, looking down at the man sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of him with blood dripping from his body.
"Kacha!"
The saber in his hand suddenly split open and turned into debris flying into the sky.
After a long time, he suddenly smiled.
"You won't die."
"I do not know either!"
Roger laughed: "Yes!"
"I won't die!"
He suddenly supported his body again and slowly stood up.
"Please allow me to say goodbye to some old friends and relatives."
Xia Le nodded, his face complex.
He knew that a magnificent era was coming.
The old era has passed and the new era has come.
Old people die and new people are born.
The gears of the changing times will begin to turn at this time.
In the afternoon of that day, Roger said goodbye to Portcas D. Lujiu. He did not tell his wife much, only that he needed to go out.
Lu Jiu still smiled as usual and did not stop her. She just said warmly: "Remember to come back early."
Xia Le stood outside the door, waiting quietly.
He watched the two hug each other, watched Roger touch his wife's face, watched him squat down, listen to the heartbeat from the other person's abdomen, and then laugh happily.
After a long, long time, Roger turned and left.
As they walked out of the courtyard, the two heard a slight cry from behind.
When they boarded the warship, Barrett, Crocodile and others were shocked because they saw the shackles on Roger's hands.
Everyone knows what this means!
Xia Le didn't say much, he just asked them not to spread the word about this matter yet.
Then, he turned to Roger with a heavy and serious expression.
"She is pregnant!"
Roger smiled and looked at him with unprecedented seriousness.
"Then it's up to you!"
"Xia Le!"
Xia Le frowned and sighed: "This is a troublesome thing!"
Roger didn't care at all and grinned.
"I gave Ace to you!"
Hearing this, Xia Le had a headache even more. He lowered his head and looked at the sword named Ace hanging on his waist.
