In the memory world, time flew by.
Yue Yang saw that the little girl had gradually grown up. Her little sister had also changed from a sleeping baby to a lively and active little girl. The little sister liked her older sister, and would always follow closely behind her. Her little feet would run behind her, and her laughter would fill the entire road … However, until the end, their beautiful and loving mother did not continue to bring them a younger brother.
On a night when the beautiful meteor shower constantly cut through the night sky, the always smiling mother died forever.
"Why?" Different from her younger sister who cried for her mother, she was strong and just asked her aunt who brought back the unfortunate news, "Why? That wasn't a mission that we had to do, nor was it a responsibility that we had to bear. Why did Mom have to bear it alone? Didn't mother say that she wanted to give us another younger brother? She also said that with a younger brother, he could revive the Stairway to Heaven and our home in the future. Why did she break her promise? Without a younger brother, how could we revive the Stairway to Heaven in the future? How could she just abandon us like this and sneak away? Why? Why did she do that? I don't understand, I don't understand! "
"…" The white-fingered aunt, the teacher who could usually answer any question for her, did not answer. She just sighed softly.
On another night when a meteor streaked through the sky.
The aunt who loved them dearly.
Never came back.
The aunt who brought back the news slowly handed her aunt's relic, the emerald spirit ring that she always wore on her slender white finger, to the trembling Yue Yang. Then, she stretched out her hand, gently stroked the top of her head, and left silently.
Standing under the Tree of Life, she held the emerald spirit ring tightly in her hand and bit her lower lip.
She was unusually strong and did not cry.
Blood dripped from her lower lip.
Drop by drop, it dripped on her white bra, like a red flower on fire.
Why?
She could not understand … Why did it become like this?
It was a duty and a war that did not belong to her. Why did she risk her life to fight? For some outsiders who had betrayed them or were indifferent to them, for some strangers who didn't even know the truth, they fought so hard and even sacrificed their own lives. What was the reason for this?
When a demon escaped from the seal, many people did not banish it for their own benefit. Instead, they treated it as the Venerable and treated it with great respect.
The ambitious ones would even help the evildoer.
Why save people like them? Why did he have to fight at all costs? Why did he have to sacrifice his own life to seal the devil? Those who had fallen with the demons were all bad people. They were all snobbish people. Why would they care about the lives of these fallen warriors or ants?
In order to get answers.
She brought her sister to a place of hibernation and found a Dreamer who had fallen into eternal slumber in order to guard the world.
"I already know why you're here." The Sleeper's voice was as gentle as a mother's. "Everyone has a different answer. Perhaps, my answer is not the one you want in your heart."
"We just want to know why Mother left us!" The younger sister was still sad about their mother's silent departure.
"The demon has escaped from the ancient seal, and no one is going to seal him. Not only will you see him as a stranger, but even our own race will be wiped out in the future. At such a time, someone has to step forward," the Sleeper explained. "That's right.
"Then why Mama? There are so many powerhouses in Tong Tian Tower, so why is our mother the only one sealed? Why not someone else? Some powerhouses not only don't fight against the demons, they even cooperate with them and even attack us when we're down. Why should we save such people? Isn't it better to let them fall with the demons? "The younger sister felt sad and angry when she thought about what happened in the past.
"That is indeed the case. But our sacrifice has nothing to do with those fallen people. The most important reason we do this is to protect our home, to protect our people and loved ones. For example, your mother. She stepped forward to do this and made such a sacrifice. It's not that she doesn't love you. On the contrary, your mother loves you too much. She's afraid that one day, you'll walk the path of the demons because of your power. So, she decided to set an example for you so that you won't fall and become demons in the future. This is her true painstaking effort! When you grow up, one day, when you have children, you'll understand the meaning of this sacrifice. " The Sleeper's words were still unable to completely appease the stubborn younger sister. But in her ears, it gave her a different kind of feeling.
"Aunty, is she the same?" She asked softly. If that's the case, why didn't Aunty explain it clearly to her?
"She's the teacher of the two of you. You don't understand it now, but in the future, you'll definitely understand. In fact, the eternity of life isn't determined by the length of time, but by understanding. Birth isn't the same as the beginning, and death isn't the same as the end. Even if they fall, their will and inheritance will always be there. Your growth will always be under their protection, just in a different way. The last thing your teacher gave you is a kind of understanding that allows you to abandon fear and pain. It's a kind of awakening that can be carried through the entire world until eternity. If one day, you can understand it, then you'll have truly grown up. "The Sleeper said something that puzzled her at that time.
"I don't understand." She couldn't understand, nor could she agree.
"No matter what, Mama, Aunty, and everyone else are all dead. They're gone forever. Mama abandoned us and left by herself. She said she would accompany us for life, but she didn't do it. Mama, she lied to us! "The younger sister cried sadly and aggrievedly.
"She also wanted to be with you, but even a god will fall one day. Moreover …" The Sleeper sighed softly.
"Is it because I'm too weak?" She suddenly had an epiphany in her heart.
"Yes and no," the Sleeper explained ambiguously.
"Without a younger brother, what will we do in the future?" She raised another doubt.
"When the big tree that shelters the wind and rain falls, the sprouts on the ground will grow rapidly under the illumination of the sun. One day, the sprouts will grow into another towering tree. Maybe it will grow even longer and bigger. Who knows! As for a younger brother, even if you don't have one now, one day, you'll have one. The Bright Moon Faction hasn't given up, and the Silent Night Faction won't either. Not only us, but the Hundred Flowers Faction and the Butterfly Faction have been working hard for thousands of years! The Stairway to Heaven is the foundation of the Tower of Babel. It's the bridge and stairway to a higher world. It won't fall forever … "The Sleeper didn't know when the revival would come, but she believed that one day, as long as she continued to work hard.
"What should we do?" she asked at last.
"Do what you want to do. Your lives are completely in your hands. Whether it's exciting, happy, or perfect, it's all under the control of your wisdom and will. Don't think about others. Do what you want to do the most, what you love to do the most … As long as you always remember Mama and the many elders who looked after you, the sacrifices they've made for you, and the enlightenment they've given you. "The Sleeper didn't point out the path, but she had made a decision in her heart.
Similarly, the younger sister had made a decision in her heart.
On the way back.
The younger sister, who had always been obedient, suddenly proposed a farewell that made her feel incomparably surprised.
The younger sister wanted to leave. She said that she didn't like this kind of life for a long time. She longed for freedom. Even if everything her older sister gave her was the best, and the training methods she arranged were the most suitable for her to improve, she didn't like it at all …
Since the Sleeper said that everyone could do what they wanted to do the most, what they loved to do, and do as they pleased.
Then in the following days.
It was the days when they could fly alone freely.
The younger sister was very afraid of her older sister. No matter if it was her strength, intelligence, or the habits and temperament that had been formed since young, none of them were enough for her to go against her older sister. Her older sister was born with an innate dignity. This kind of dignity even surpassed that of her mother and her little aunt, who was her teacher … Even so, the younger sister bravely said it for the first time in her life.
Weakly.
She lowered her head, but the willpower in her voice was incomparably firm.
The younger sister was also a person with her own opinions. It was just that she was afraid of her older sister, so she never showed it.
"Is that so? Finally, you're going to leave as well? " She was very sad because she felt that she had taken good care of her younger sister. However, such care with all her heart and soul could not be exchanged for her younger sister's approval. She even thought that it was a kind of restraint, a kind of restraint that restricted her freedom. This farewell, to the current her, was really a very big blow. At the very least, it destroyed the self-confidence that she had painstakingly built up after her mother and little aunt left.
"I'm sorry …" The younger sister cried loudly. Suddenly, she lost control and screamed, "The person I hate the most is my older sister. Although you gave the best things, the best treasures, to me, I know that no matter how much I get, I will never be able to match up to my older sister! I hate this. Why don't I have the talent that my older sister has? Why can't I match up to my older sister no matter how hard I work? I don't need your sympathy, and I don't need to be taken care of. You gave me the best, but I'm not grateful at all. Sob sob, I also hate my mother and little aunt the most … The way they look at me is completely different from how they look at you, my older sister. Why? Why are they worried about me? I also work very hard, why are they worried about me? I don't need them to worry about me. I can do very well, I can always be obedient, and I will never fall into the path of evil. Why are they so worried about me? Even if they don't say it, I know that they are very afraid of me! Why do they want to arrange my life? I, I am not anyone's chess piece. I can prove that … I can do very, very well on my own! "
Hearing the words in her younger sister's heart.
Her heart.
The vibration was very strong.
She had never thought that her younger sister would have such thoughts, and she had never imagined that she would have such psychological pressure.
Perhaps, freedom was the most important thing … Since that was the case, then let her do as she wished. Everyone had their own life, and her younger sister's life should be decided by her own will!
As her younger sister wailed loudly, the strong-willed her younger sister took a deep breath.
She regained her usual rationality and calmness.
She turned around and left.
For the first time, she left her younger sister behind in the outside world that she was worried about.
The lonely figure under the bright moon looked very lonely, but the strong-willed her footsteps were still steady. She gently stroked the emerald ring and the white jade pendant that were strung on her neck. These were the belongings of her little aunt and mother. As long as she carried them with her, she would feel endless power, as if her little aunt and mother were by her side to protect her.
"Now, even if I am the only one left, without my younger sister or brother, I can still do it!"
She gently clenched her fists and looked up at the clear night sky.
Her godly eyes were shining under her long eyelashes.
Her radiance was a thousand times brighter than the brightest stars in the sky. "Mother, and little aunt, I won't let you down. Even without my younger brother, I will still become the best in the world, and I can still do my best!"
