00741 The light of hope(1/2)
Lin Sen, who is like a firefly, is so small under the night covered by the deep sea.
Losing Vasak meant that Lin Sen's chances of finding the Quantum Origin were greatly reduced... It could even be said that he had lost.
But this feeling of helplessness and hopelessness is already very familiar.
Lin Sen rarely stopped and began to think alone.
He vaguely remembered the first time he met Kui, that wise man-like survivor of an ancient civilization. Would he be disappointed and disgusted with humans if he lived among humans in human form?
Lin Sen didn't think so...but strangely...Lin Sen, who was getting stronger and stronger, had this experience.
Obviously the predecessor was a human being.
But after embracing the Yuan world, he began to hate human beings.
The remaining morality and kindness have allowed Lin Sen to persevere until now, but he has already had a premonition that as time goes by, he may be like Dr. Manhattan in "Watchmen" and gradually lose everything as a human being.
Fortunately, Lin Sen's partner will not age, so he does not have to face ethical issues in his relationship.
As long as you behave well and stick to your duties as a human being, you'll be fine.
But why?
Why do I have to live as a human being? Why do I have to be bound by death? Do I have to suffer the anger of ignorance? Do I have to suffer in this world like a mortal?
Lin Sen closed his eyes and remembered many unhappy things.
For example, his mother whom he has rarely seen since he was a child, his brother who is not very fond of him, and his father who is too old-fashioned but has imprinted his stalwart background in Lin Sen's heart...
War... never-ending, war without reason.
No one ever cared why the war started...
Anyway, just fight!
So Lin Sen couldn't help but remember that sentence... that sentence written by a child in his diary... "Everyone involved in the war is guilty!"
Open your eyes.
Stare into the darkness.
In the endless darkness, Lin Sen glimpsed the vast stars.
Civilization is just a subtle tremor in the universe that is not worth mentioning. Perhaps human beings across the stars are still far away from conquering the entire universe in the end!
Meaninglessness is the most terrifying thought, especially when you feel it and then look up at the sky, the gloomy atmosphere it exudes is fatal.
It will deprive you of your desire for everything in life!
But this time, Lin Sen did not reject it. He expected this sense of meaninglessness to completely occupy his body and mind. He wanted to completely plunge himself into darkness, and then he could find the real light!
…
On both sides of the river, Yang Yurong asked Dongfang Ruo: "Do you think I am the former person who picked up a gun and suddenly realized the true meaning of being a human being, or the latter person who did not think twice and survived in the end?"
Dongfang Ruo was silent. She knew Yang Yurong's question was crucial, but she...
There is no answer.
Seeing that Dongfang didn't answer, Yang Yurong suddenly said: "It's better than this! If you really don't know how to answer, let's play a game! A game on both sides of the river!"
As she finished speaking, Yang Yurong's eyebrows flashed, and as the river suddenly reversed, the space on the left and right sides suddenly broke.
After just ten seconds, the space of the scene was completed.
Here, Yang Yurong is the order that dominates everything.
Although Dongfang Ruo could break this taboo at any time, she didn't. She needed to know the reason why Yang Yurong betrayed the Central Curtain.
Because in Dongfang Ruo's eyes, it is more important than the survival of mankind.
"Each person has a mechanism box. Whoever opens it first will get a button to kill the other person." Yang Yurong raised her hand, and a miniature black hole appeared in the palm of her hand. It gathered all the surrounding matter, and then a pitch-black box was born.
Dongfang Ruo also raised her hand, but no black hole appeared. The box fell directly from the sky and fell into her palm.
"Understood?" Yang Yurong's expression at this moment looked very much like Meirui's.
Dongfang Ruo held the familiar box of this game and nodded.
"Okay, the game begins!"
After Yang Yurong said that, she crushed the box and got the button.
Dongfang Ruo was still flipping over and looking at the structure of the box.
"Should I kill you?" Yang Yurong did not press the button directly after getting it. Instead, she asked a question.
Dongfang Ruo raised his head and looked at Yang Yurong, but she said nothing.
"I should kill you! Because you are Dongfang Ruo, you are the heir of the mysterious master Luo Shengtian, and your power is a huge threat to me!" When Yang Yurong said this, the button was quietly pressed.
in hand.
Dongfang Ruo seemed to have realized something when he saw it.
"But what if you are not Dongfang Ruo? Should I kill you?" Yang Yurong asked again.
Dongfang Ruo replied without thinking: "You should kill me."
"Oh? Why?" Yang Yurong smiled.
"Because if you don't do this, you will die." Dongfang Ruo took the box and squeezed it gently, and the box showed signs of breaking.
Yang Yurong felt nothing about this, but she smiled even happier.
"Yes, rules are rules, order is order, and there is nothing wrong with killing the other party in order to survive! It's fair and just! What's more, in this situation?" Yang Yurong smiled and suddenly turned cold. She gritted her teeth and finished,
Then pressed the button halfway.
As the button was pressed, Dongfang Ruo's body suddenly stiffened, and a black mist poured out of her mouth.
The black mist exuding the stench of death made Dongfangruo feel the fear and pain so clearly for the first time...
But... Yang Yurong did not continue to press it. She put down the button and her expression returned to normal.
Then he said: "But have you ever thought about... why do we kill each other? This river is very wide, this forest is very big, this world has enough resources for us to live on, we can even become friends, hunt together, and
Have a picnic, watch the sunrise and sunset together, and then wait until whoever dies first, the living one can sweep the dust on her tomb and present a bouquet of flowers every year... But why... Why can't we do it? We
For what reason did you kill the other party?"
As the button stopped, the pain gradually faded from Dongfang Ruo's body.
Dongfangruo felt extremely weak, which made it difficult for her to stay standing, but she did not fall.
She listened carefully to everything Yang Yurong said.
But she remained silent.
After Yang Yurong's rhetorical questions ended, her expression became very lost, helpless and painful.
"This story was originally about two soldiers. They had a family and a country and responsibilities. But in fact, when they were in the river, what was the difference between two naked humans and children in the Garden of Eden? They could have shared this together.
River, and then chose to look at each other and smile on that night when they saw each other, but... hum..." Yang Yurong sneered: "What they saw was only the evil in the other person's heart. When they were not sure what the other person was thinking, they did
We made the wisest choice! That is to swim back to the shore, pick up the gun, and kill the opponent!"
Dongfang Ruo heard this and finally said: "This is the instinct of living things. Even beasts cannot share everything with their own kind, so..."
"So they have to kill each other? Just like those apex predators that eventually became extinct? Haha! This is really a good joke!" Yang Yurong shook her head. She sneered at Dongfang Ruo's answer, and then continued: "Humans can evolve
To get to this point today, we definitely didn’t rely on killing each other!”
Dongfang Ruo was speechless. After thinking about it, she felt that her thoughts were really stupid, but she still said it so naturally...
"So, do you still think that mine has betrayed the central curtain?" Yang Yurong threw the button away casually, spread her hands and asked Dongfang Ruodao.
Dongfang Ruo was silent for a while and then said: "Actually, they are the ones who really betrayed the Central Curtain... Are you... the last believer of the Central Curtain?"
Yang Yurong chuckled after hearing this. She waved her hands and shook her head. It felt like she was laughing at Dongfang Ruo's uprightness and stupidity.
But when she spoke, Dongfang Ruocai realized that she was not wrong, but that some of the content was missing.
"I am not a believer in the Central Veil, but I am definitely not a traitor. In fact, since the establishment of the Central Veil, each of us who participated in it has played our own role. It is a pity that as we go along, the original
Those people gradually left here. They were just like Lin Sen. After becoming Sailosh, they transcended and became perfect. Then, they left this world alone...and when they left, they did not cry out.
To wake me up, it nailed me to the cross of eternal life and made me stay in the human world forever, so I will always stay here and add countless possibilities to this world, but it is a pity..." Yang Yurong
Finally telling the truth, she laughed at herself and said softly with the pain that no one had ever understood: "I have never been able to find the answer to this world, so I can only live like a madman and live well.
"
Dongfang Ruo suddenly felt heartbroken after hearing this.
Especially the feeling of being abandoned by everyone...
Yang Yurong may have the eternal life and immortal body that countless mortals dream of!
But what she was carrying made people frightened, so they stopped...
The curse of eternal life gives a person the possibility to think constantly, but it is an endless challenge to stay awake in this kind of thinking.
Both sides of the river...
To be continued...
