He didn't dare think about how devastated the little girl would be after he died.
He didn't dare think about how confused the little girl would be after he died.
He didn't dare to think about whether the little girl could live well alone after he died.
Su Mo can face everyone with his debts and regrets, except the little girl!
She was wandering alone, with nothing, no memory, and no care.
It was he who gave her hope and reliance, and now... he wants to take away this hope and reliance again...
Would that be a little too cruel...
If she had never appeared, then she was just wandering alone.
A small lonely figure will not attract anyone's attention...
Although it is miserable, you will not experience despair without hope.
How do people who have seen the sun return to darkness?
After her death, neither the academy members nor Luo Yin would ignore her. But Su Mo knew that the reason why the little girl got involved with the academy and the reason why she could have a heart-to-heart relationship with Luo Yin was because she was the link.
When this bond is broken, the little girl can still live well in the academy, but...
Su Mo closed his eyes. He didn't know how much time had passed. It seemed like hours or days.
The nourishment of the divine spring on his broken soul became smaller and smaller, until the comfort disappeared.
"Sure enough..." Su Mo laughed miserably as he felt the divine spring nourishing his soul.
"The divine spring nourishes the wounds of my broken soul, but it doesn't have much effect."
Although I have long known that the divine spring is useless to me, it is a different feeling when hope comes and then is shattered.
Su Mo's consciousness sank into his body, and he saw his shattered soul, which was still being repaired by the divine spring.
But...the wound of a broken soul is like a fire in the mountains, scorching the mountains and setting fire to the prairie, and this divine spring is just an insignificant spring. How can we extinguish the fires all over the mountains and plains.
The nourishment of the divine spring is far less than the decay of the divine soul caused by the broken soul.
No matter how long you nourish it, it is just a waste of time that is already running short...
"Don't waste any more time. Let's take this girl to explore the world in the last moment..."
Su Mo lowered his head and stood up slowly, slowly walking out of the divine spring.
He glanced at the divine spring with shining eyes, as if there was a little girl in there who was full of expectation.
But ineffectiveness is ineffective, and life will not get better because of anyone’s expectations.
Su Mo shook his head, took a deep breath, tried his best to put a smile on his face, and then walked down the mountain along the stone steps.
That loneliness is only revealed when you are alone.
Step by step, the water from the divine spring falling from the white clothes and white hair covered the entire stone steps... as if mocking the helplessness of this dying man.
Pushing open the bamboo door, Su Mo saw Dao Twelve waiting there.
Dao Twelve seemed to have known the result for a long time, but he still asked: "How?"
Su Mo shook his head slowly, turned around and glanced at Zhumen, then hugged his fists at Dao Twelve, "I am very grateful to senior for allowing me to try the divine spring. I will never be able to repay him in this life."
Dao Twelve sighed, waved his hand and said: "Useless is useless, what do you want to thank me for."
"The junior has benefited a lot from being able to enter the ancestral land of the Dao Sect. Although it cannot save the junior's life, it has allowed the junior to understand how to go in the last period of time..." Su Mo knew a sect. It is a great kindness to let an outsider come in to our ancestral land, and it is a great kindness to Dao Twelve to let him come in and give it a try.
Dao Twelve stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Su Mo and said very sincerely: "I let you enter the divine spring just because I owe your master Mo Shangao a favor. I just repaid the favor. You don't have to give this favor." The debt of gratitude goes to Daozong."
Dao Twelve didn't say it was because of the woman in the white dress, but instead dumped the blame on the seemingly reasonable dean.
Su Mo nodded and didn't say anything else, but he still remembered it in his heart. Although it was a favor from the dean, he could still see Daozong's kindness.
Dao Twelve looked at Su Mo, shook his head and sighed. With a wave of his hand, he led Su Mo out of the ancestral land.
Returning to Daoxuan Mountain where Daozong was located, Su Mo immediately saw the little girl who was looking forward to it.
The little girl's small body was in the pavilion, her face full of anticipation and fear.
Master Huikong sat aside, closing his eyes and reciting Buddhist sutras silently.
There was also Dao Hua, who frowned and looked down the mountain, worried.
"Master." When the little girl saw Su Mo and Dao Twelve appearing outside the pavilion, she immediately flew to Su Mo like a bird.
"How's it going? Is the divine spring useful?" The little girl stared at Su Mo closely, her expression tense and uneasy.
Su Mo laughed, raised his hand and touched the little girl's head, "It works, young master feels much better."
"Really?" The little girl's face was filled with excitement.
Su Mo nodded and said with a smile: "Of course it's true. The young master feels extremely strong now."
"Great!" The little girl immediately turned her head and gave a big salute to Dao Twelve, "Thank you, senior, for saving my young master. The girl is very grateful."
Dao Twelve looked at the serious little girl and opened his mouth but did not say anything.
Dao Hua looked at Su Mo blankly, and he could see the hint of deception in Su Mo's smile.
Master Huikong opened his eyes, took a deep look at Su Mo and the happy little girl, closed his eyes again, and muttered something.
Su Mo touched the top of the little girl's head and ruffled her long hair.
The little girl raised her head and looked at Su Mo who seemed very happy: "Then let's go back to the academy quickly and tell Senior Sister Gu and Senior Sister Luo the good news."
Su Mo looked at Master Huikong who was chanting Buddhist scriptures with his eyes closed, then lowered his head and looked at the little girl, shook his head and said softly:
"Let's walk around the world again. I also want to go to the snowy area again. Don't you want to see the snow, little girl? When we have enough fun in the snowy area, we will take our next trip to the south of the Yangtze River, or take our little boat. When Jiangnan has had enough fun, it won’t be too late for us to go back to the academy..."
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"Okay, little girl, we didn't even have a snowball fight in the snowy area last time. Let's go to the snowy area again. We must have a good time this time. There is also our little painting boat. The young master doesn't even know about it. In fact, our Even the young master of the little painting boat lost money."
Su Mo smiled and nodded, his eyes full of smiles, and then looked at Master Huikong, "Master?"
"Let's go." Master Huikong sighed, opened his eyes and said slowly.
The little girl raised her head and looked at Su Mo's side face, with deep sadness hidden in her eyes... It turned out that the young master was lying to the girl. If the divine spring was useful, why didn't he go back to the academy, and why did he have to walk around the world.
...But it's okay, the girl has something to do.
Isn’t it the flower of the other side...
