Chapter 272: Just One Thought to Save the Common People
The morning rain is misty and the autumn wind is rustling.
Taixu Mountain,
"Master, why is it so noisy outside?...Master? Master! Lin Chaoyu! Hey...why are you in a daze again? Are you missing His Majesty again?"
"...No, I am reading a book."
"But you have been looking at this page for more than half an hour."
"...Su Mei, how far have you reached in practicing "Nine Unrivaled Transformations"?"
"Third turn. Master, don't change the subject! This technique was jointly developed by you and me. Don't you know what level I have reached? You must be thinking about His Majesty again, right?"
"..."
"Hey... Master, listen to my disciple's advice. There are many good people in this world. You are so outstanding and have countless suitors. Why do you have to hang yourself on His Majesty? Your Majesty is not worthy! That Wutong is actually a Scumbag, he captured your heart, but he gave you nothing, and he won't let you get anything. And the most outrageous thing is that he just slapped his butt and ran away, and didn't care about you. This kind of People really don’t deserve this!”
"..."
"Master, if you love someone, you need to get feedback, otherwise your heart will become cold sooner or later. But after all these years, why is your heart not cold?! Why are you so stupid?! Your Majesty doesn't care about you at all! He He left so irresponsibly, and didn’t even mention giving you a biological child before leaving! Let you have something to miss! Why do you have to think about him? That Wutong is even more of a scumbag than a scumbag! I will never forget this kind of person, Are you, Lin Chaoyu, cheap?!"
"I know everything you said as a teacher. Although I am not as smart as you, I have read a lot of books and no one can talk to me better."
"Then how did you..."
"I'll wait for him."
"? Even if he doesn't come back?"
"Even if he doesn't come back."
"...Bah! Disgusting! Bitch! So cheap! How could I fall in love with a bitch like you?!"
"Kneel down in the corner and face the wall."
"..."
…
Fourteen years later, the three of Wutong finally traveled around this broken world and came to the center of the world, Wutong's former home.
That's right, the original one-year journey was delayed by Wutong for fourteen years. Halfway through, this guy changed his mind. He wanted to visit various places.
Over the years, Sakura and Mebius have gradually become familiar with this slightly strange world.
Nowadays, they no longer feel that this world is weird.
When they understand the reasons behind everything that seems bizarre, they no longer feel that things are abnormal.
They may even think that in order to prevent the world from completely "dying", those seemingly abnormal things are actually normal and are done as a last resort.
The reason why it is weird is because it is strange and uncommon. When people know the truth, they will find that it is just that.
After accompanying Wutong and traveling around the world, Sakura gained a clearer understanding of this terrible world.
From her perspective, Sakura felt that this world from the old era was not like a planet, but more like a huge fish tank, with fourteen islands floating on the water of the "fish tank".
There is an island owner on each island, but even the oldest person has never seen Wutong, and their numbers are basically outside the 15-digit number.
People like numbers 2, 3... had long since died, before Wutong left this world.
Wutong's home is at the center of the "fish tank", and above it is the blood moon and the Herrscher of the End.
This is the closest to the end.
Since the "fish tank" does not rotate like a planet, there is no day or night.
People here divide day and night according to time. Of course, day and night can also be distinguished by when fog is generated and dissipated. They can also be distinguished by whether there is Honkai energy in the air, or when people "Honkai"... …
In short, there are many ways to distinguish between day and night, but they have little to do with the sun.
This world is very fragile, so fragile that Sakura and Mebius don't dare to fight. The two girls are afraid that they will destroy Wutong's hard work with their own hands.
But this world is also very strong, strong enough to last for such a long time and survive such a long period of time without "death".
Wutong once again returned to his original starting point, but his home was long gone. After all, he had been away from this world for nearly 42,000 years.
Many people even thought that he was "lucky and nostalgic" and would never come back and give up.
Today, this place is occupied by an island owner, and even the house is different.
Therefore, Wutong drove the island owner out.
The island owner pulled a coffin and left cursing. He was so angry that he announced his resignation on the spot, and the words he said were as unpleasant as possible.
However, the smile on his face was so bright that he couldn't hold it tight.
In the study,
Wutong is flipping through the files left for him by the previous owner of the central island. He may spend the next few years in this study until he regains control of the world.
Sakura was watering several pots of black flowers, and Mebius didn't know where he had gone, maybe to build a laboratory.
After watering the flowers, Sakura picked up the telescope on the table, stuck her head out the window, and looked above her head at the bottom of Herrscher of the End's skirt. Unfortunately, she didn't see anything.
Sakura felt that life was no longer fun.
The excited Sakura withdrew her upper body. She put the telescope in place, collapsed on the sofa, and said feebly: "Ms. sir, can you conjure a pig? I haven't eaten with my mouth for a long time. I feel my taste. It’s almost degenerating.”
"You look like a pig to me."
"Then do you want to try it now?"
"Let's talk about it tonight."
"That dead snake came here again at night!" Sakura said dissatisfied.
"Why do I think you enjoy it?!"
"Don't talk nonsense..."
Sakura looked out the window on the second floor. In the "market" in the distance, several white-haired guys were working together to pull a cart and distribute black cloth to people for free.
"Can you really save the former civilization?" Sakura asked with a stunned expression.
"I don't know, I can only try my best." Wutong picked up another piece of information, "However, hard work is not omnipotent. Things that are impossible will not be achieved because of hard work, let alone because of Everyone else wants me to do it and trigger a miracle.”
"How sure are you? One percent?"
"not sure."
"..."
Sakura felt a little distressed and said, "You know it's impossible and you don't see any hope, why do you still work so hard? You're so stupid."
"You are not smart if you are willing to accompany me here." Wutong said calmly, "Many things are not done because of hope. It is because of hard work that you have a chance to see hope."
"So do you see hope?"
"can not see."
"... Are your efforts in vain in despair? You are really stupid. I always thought you were a smart person before... I didn't expect that you turned out to be an idealist."
"There is nothing wrong with this. Although idealists will always be ridiculed and seem hopeless, the ridicule of the insensitive cannot defeat the ideal. If people don't even have their ideals, how can they let their ideals shine through?" What about reality?”
"...If you fail again this time, what are you going to do?"
"continue."
"……Why bother?"
Wutong put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "Human, living a lifetime is nothing more than seeking a clear idea and a calm heart. Otherwise, the heart will be uneasy, let alone eating well, sleeping well, and having fun...
"Once upon a time, reality blocked my thoughts. Some existences made it difficult for me to eat, sleep, and play. Therefore, I could only find a way to kill them. Otherwise, my life would be in vain.
"As for me, I'm actually more petty than you, and I hold grudges very much."
"How did you make this decision in the first place? You must have been struggling inside for a long time, right?"
"Haha~ What resolution did you make? At that time, I was lying in the sleeping cabin and couldn't sleep. The idea of saving the world came to my mind, so I did it."
"How did you get out of the sleeping cabin?"
"Let's fix it later."
"..."
