Taisetsu had heard this voice before.
It was the voice of the young man who was willing to give him hot tea, give him a place to stay, and was willing to believe in him.
Taisetsu did not even think about it as he grabbed the key … In his palm, a blazing stream of air gushed out!
Boundless light burst out from his fist and instantly pierced through the surrounding darkness. The key was no longer an ordinary key. It was elongating and transforming into the shape of a sword.
"You are indeed suitable for Zhanlu. It also likes you a lot … When you were willing to replace Sister Lin's child, it liked you and wanted to help you. "
"Luo … Luoqiu?" Taisetsu tightly held Zhanlu in his hand.
"However, you cannot withstand Zhanlu's power. If you use it, you will die, truly die. Your soul will dissipate and no trace of your existence will remain … Are you willing to do that?"
"It doesn't matter," Taisetsu calmly said.
He suddenly took a deep breath and raised the ancient sword that gave him endless power. He charged forward and swung the sword. The souls that were dragging Sister Lin's son, Big Head, and Lord Jin's arms were instantly cut off!
— I wish that I could replace you that day.
— If I could be given another chance … a chance to start all over again.
— If not, then this time, no matter what …
— At least let me save you.
Countless mournful cries could be heard. The pitch-black surface of the water surged crazily. However, a dazzling radiance burst out from the surface of the water and rushed into the sky with shocking might!
Along with the shattering of the darkness … came the mournful cries of the souls.
…
It was as if nothing had happened.
However, a large number of people fell to the ground. Regardless of whether they were policemen or those who were being controlled, they all fell to the ground. The corridor was densely packed with people.
Taisetsu even saw Lord Jin and Big Head who had fallen to the ground … They seemed to have only fainted.
Everyone here had only fainted and were lying on the ground.
However, the Clear Sable Sword in his hand seemed exceptionally simple and calm. A sense of intimacy even entered his thoughts.
Taisetsu stared blankly at the glowing ball of light floating in front of his eyes. This was his … Mrs. Lin's child.
Taisetsu didn't even need to ask anyone to feel it.
He wanted to grab it, but his brows suddenly furrowed. His hand subconsciously touched his abdomen … There was still a small knife there. It had been stabbed in by someone under the control of the evil ghost.
Blood instantly stained his palm. Taisetsu only glanced at it indifferently and reached out to grab the light ball again, but he immediately pulled back his hand.
He put down the Clear Sable Sword in his other hand. However, just as his hand was about to leave, Luoqiu's voice sounded behind him.
"Taisetsu, once you let go of the Clear Sable Sword, you won't be able to hold on … Are you sure you want to let go of it? If you don't, you might be able to hold on for a while. "
Taisetsu's shoulders trembled, but he didn't turn around. He took a deep breath and looked at his blood-stained palm. He said softly, "The other hand … This hand is too dirty. It's not good."
Therefore, he abandoned the Clear Sable Sword and used his clean … hand to grab the small ball of soul. He said softly, "Come, I'll bring you back to see your mother, okay?"
— — I'll bring you home.
Even though the voice continued to sound behind him, perhaps out of kindness or to remind him of something, Taisetsu turned a deaf ear … Or perhaps he didn't intend to listen.
He could feel that his body was about to shatter. His steps were difficult, as if he was walking on a mountain of swords, but he was abnormally firm.
The Clear Sable Sword, which was abandoned on the table, started to tremble violently. It floated up in an instant, but it seemed to be restrained by something. It seemed unwilling, but in the end, it gradually returned to the appearance of a key.
This was because it was just an item that was stored in the inventory and buried in the club's warehouse. It was passed down from generation to generation and now belonged to the new boss.
No matter how much it wanted to leave, it couldn't leave this rule in the hands of the boss who had given it ownership.
"Taisetsu can't control your power. Using it once is his limit."
Luo Qiu grabbed the key back to his hand expressionlessly.
He asked those who had fainted to stand up with their eyes closed and returned to their original positions. He also asked Jin Ye and Big Head to sit on the chairs in the hall.
Finally, the boss snapped his fingers … and this place resumed its original operation.
Everyone carried out what they were supposed to do a moment ago seamlessly. Only Jin Ye and Big Head looked at each other in shock and uncertainty …
…
…
The people on the road didn't seem to notice his existence.
Even if such a person was bleeding from the wounds on his body, his body was like a pixel, constantly splitting and reassembling, repeatedly … no one would be able to detect it.
For Taisetsu, his focus was only on the front. Yes, there was only one road that he wanted to finish.
The old man in charge of the community didn't seem to notice such a horrible person walking in front of him to one of the buildings.
Taisetsu came to the door of Mrs. Lin's house. When he was about to knock on the door, Taisetsu paused, flicking his hair and tidying up his clothes.
"Who is it?"
"Mrs. Lin … It's me … Gan Jing."
"Wait! Wait! I'm cooking, wait! "
Mrs. Lin touched the wall and came to the door step by step. She opened the door clumsily, "Gan Jing! You came to see Mrs. Lin again? Why didn't you inform me in advance? "
— Mrs. Lin, I brought your son back.
"I … Didn't we agree … to have dinner at your house last time …"
"It's not the first day yet!" Mrs. Lin gave a start and then smiled, "It's Saturday. But it's good that you're here. Mrs. Lin will go downstairs to buy some fried chicken for you! "
"No … no need … scrambled eggs are good enough."
— I brought him back …
"What's wrong with you? You look tired. "Mrs. Lin reached out to grab Taisetsu's arm," Gan Jing? Are you not feeling well? Why are your hands so cold? "
"Maybe I caught a cold …"
"Come in, come in. Don't just stand there. Come in and sit down! Be careful … walk slowly. "Mrs. Lin helped Taisetsu and sat down smoothly.
"It's just a small cold. Why do you make me feel like a patient?" Taisetsu used the last of his strength to make himself look energetic.
"A small cold is also an illness! Silly boy! "Mrs. Lin smiled," Sit down first. I'll finish cooking! "
Mrs. Lin walked into the kitchen.
Taisetsu covered his abdomen and opened his coat. A ball of light slowly floated out and then slowly floated into the kitchen.
It floated beside Mrs. Lin like a happy fairy … Taisetsu's face had an ugly smile.
— Mrs. Lin, I …
"I'm done cooking. You can eat now!" Mrs. Lin held the dishes and walked out using the wall. If it was in the past, Gan Jing would immediately come up to support her, but this time he didn't.
Mrs. Lin couldn't help but feel a little strange, so she continued to shout, "Gan Jing? Gan Jing? Gan Jing? "
"I'm … I … just fell asleep for a while."
Taisetsu propped himself up and slowly sat down at the dining table. Only then did Aunt Lin smile and sit down as well. "Why don't you have a good rest at Aunt Lin's place after dinner?"
"No need … I'll leave later." Taisetsu smiled and said, "I came this time to say goodbye to you. I'm going to work somewhere else soon. "
"So soon?" Mrs. Lin put down the chopsticks in her hand, "Didn't you just come back for a few days? Why are you leaving again … Well, you're busy with work. I won't nag you. How long will you be gone this time? "
"It's irregular. Maybe it'll be longer this time."
— Actually, I really want to tell you …
Mrs. Lin nodded, "It's okay. It doesn't matter how long. You're doing a good job. I support you! Ten thousand support! Come, don't just stand there. Help yourself to the food. "
"I might be leaving later. I just wanted to see you before I leave."
— Actually, I'm that …
"Ah? Really, you're in such a hurry. You should've just called me and told me. " Mrs. Lin shook her head and then used a spoon to scoop some scrambled eggs, "Eat more. You'll have strength later after you're full."
Taisetsu held the bowl in tears and choked, "Mrs. Lin, actually I …"
"Ah? What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? "Mrs. Lin tilted her head and moved closer," What do you want to say to me? "
The soul light ball slowly floated to Taisetsu's side and stopped in his hand … Gradually, the light ball turned into a shadow and a pair of small hands held Taisetsu's hand.
She shook her head gently at him.
Taisetsu moved his lips and looked into his eyes. He seemed to understand what he meant.
Taisetsu took a deep breath and finally said, "I want to say … if I could eat your dishes every day, every day, every meal … That would be great."
"Oh, you scared me. I thought you were going to say something." Mrs. Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "So you're trying to make me happy again! If you really want to eat, tell me in advance the next time you come back. I'll prepare more delicious food for you! Don't eat scrambled eggs every time! "
"I'm sorry!!!" Taisetsu knelt on the ground and leaned on Mrs. Lin's knee. He cried painfully, "I'm sorry! Mrs. Lin, I'm sorry … I'm really, really sorry! "
"Gan Jing! What's wrong with you? What's wrong? "Mrs. Lin touched Taisetsu's shoulder in a panic," Calm down! Why are you crying? Child? Have you been wronged outside? Don't cry, don't cry. I'm sad to hear you cry. "
— I let go at that time … I could have brought your child back.
— But I let go … I chose to save my brother.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry …"
"Gan Jing? Don't cry? Seeing you like this, Mrs. Lin also wants to cry. Child? Have you been wronged? "
— If I tell you … What will you do?
— I don't dare to think about it. I don't dare to think about it. It's not easy for you to get over this hurdle …
— I don't want you … to accept such a cruel thing again …
— I want to confess everything to you.
"Mrs. Lin, I … I'm fine." Taisetsu shook his head, "I just encountered a little setback, and then … then I had to leave again. I can't visit you often and take care of you."
"You scared me to death." Mrs. Lin patted her chest and sighed, "I thought you did something bad. Silly boy, who doesn't suffer a little? Look at me, didn't I come here too? The days are long! You're a man. Why are you crying? Be brave and wipe your tears. Isn't there a saying that tomorrow will be better? "
As Mrs. Lin spoke, she tried to lift Taisetsu's body with both hands. Taisetsu cooperated and sat down.
"Mrs. Lin knows you'll get over it, no matter what the difficulties are." Mrs. Lin said with a smile, "I have no relatives. I can't remember my husband and child. I've been alone for a long time. But Mrs. Lin was able to meet you. That's the greatest reward God has given me! So, Mrs. Lin has long regarded you as her son. You, if you're unhappy or uncomfortable, just tell Mrs. Lin. Don't be afraid. "
Taisetsu bit his lips.
"If you want to cry, come to Mrs. Lin and cry. Don't do it outside. How embarrassing would that be?" Mrs. Lin grabbed Taisetsu's hand, "If you're tired, come here. Treat this as your home. Okay, let's eat. Let's eat. "
"Okay." Taisetsu said softly, "Let me pick up some food for you."
"Okay! Good boy. "
When Taisetsu picked up a dish, the hand holding the chopsticks collapsed in an instant. It turned into countless particles and dissipated in the air. Taisetsu gritted his teeth and reached out with his other hand to catch the chopsticks. Only then did he not startle.
But at this time, his legs were also rapidly disappearing. His body was also collapsing in an even more orderly manner.
Mrs. Lin ate her meal. She didn't know that the figure formed by the ball of soul light was hugging her tightly from behind and slowly falling asleep … and also slowly dissipating.
"I don't know why, but Mrs. Lin suddenly feels like the whole family is here." Mrs. Lin subconsciously touched her face, "Why am I crying … Gan Jing? Gan Jing? "
"Mrs. Lin, I have to go …"
Little by little, Taisetsu's body had completely dissipated …
"So soon?" Mrs. Lin hurriedly stood up, "Let me send you off?"
"No … no need … I'm leaving."
— — Just let Gan Jing remain in your heart forever, okay … Mother … Lin.
Dissipating with the wind, not leaving a single trace.
…
"Gan Jing? Gan Jing? "
Mrs. Lin called out a few times, but in the end, she did not get a response, "Already gone? Why didn't you say hello? "
She shook her head and sat down silently. She ate alone, and the house was quiet.
"How about …" Mrs. Lin suddenly put down her chopsticks, "Knit another scarf for Gan Jing?"
She seemed to have something to do again. She did not feel dull and lonely as if she had been injected with new vitality.
…
…
…
…
At the funeral, some of the Luo Family's relatives who could be called out, or those who could not be called out, were silent, and some were in pain.
This was the seventh day after Grandma Xiaochun passed away.
The younger ones, such as Luo Shan, Luo Zheng, and others, had calmed down a lot. They also had to calm down because they were busy receiving those who came to offer condolences.
They were busy from the day to the evening, and they still had to prepare meals for everyone.
In the evening, Luo Shan came to Luoqiu's house and knocked on the door. The door was opened soon. Luo Shan glanced at it and saw a luggage bag in the living room.
"Are you leaving?" Luo Shan looked at Luoqiu, blinked her beautiful eyes, and asked.
Luoqiu nodded, "The high-speed train will be later. I have booked the ticket."
"That's right … You have been here for so many days." Luo Shan nodded, "How about I send you there?"
"No need." Luoqiu smiled and said, "You have been busy all day. Have a good rest. I called a DiDi car. It will be here soon."
With that said, a black car had already stopped on the village road. The lights of the car even shone here.
"I see …" Luo Shan also nodded.
In the end, she watched Luoqiu take the luggage bag, close the door, and walk out. Before getting into the car, Luoqiu suddenly handed out the key, "By the way, if you are free, can you help me take care of it?"
Luo Shan stroked her hair and took it with a chuckle, "Sure … but I have to hire someone!"
"That's fine too." Luoqiu nodded, "Well, I will give you a fixed service fee every month."
Luo Shan was stunned and subconsciously reached out to gently knock Luoqiu's head. But after that, she realized that this behavior was a bit inappropriate … and a bit too intimate, so she quickly said, "If you want to give me money, I won't take care of it for you!"
"Sorry." Luoqiu smiled, "Then I'll have to trouble you. Just drop me off here."
Seeing Luoqiu open the door, Luo Shan suddenly said at this time, "Luoqiu!"
"Is there anything else?"
Luo Shan moved her lips, then smiled slightly, like a fairy smiling in the breeze, and said softly, "Next time when you come back, let's make osmanthus syrup together?"
Luoqiu nodded, then opened the door and got in the car … The car didn't stop and directly drove out of the village road at this time.
Luo Shan waited until it was completely out of sight, then sighed. Looking at the key in her hand, she lowered her head and smiled. Her mood was a bit light, so she planned to go back and make a cup of osmanthus syrup hot tea.
Next time …
…
The car quickly drove out of the village road and then went on the way to the high-speed railway station. At this time, the driver in front suddenly asked, "Don't you need to stay for a few days? I think Luo Shan seems to be reluctant to leave. "
"No need." Luoqiu smiled and said, "It's not that I won't come back … But you, have you dealt with your things?"
The driver nodded and said indifferently, "I told Mr. Jin and Big Head that I plan to go on a trip to relax. I don't know when I will come back. In addition, I got a sum of money for Big Head to take good care of Sister Lin in the future … As for Xiao Yucheng, I sneaked into his house and his brother-in-law, Bureau Chief Cheng's house and found a lot of useful things. I also gave them to Mr. Jin and asked him to help report it. Mr. Jin was happy to hear it. He had to let people know that even if he retired, he was not someone to be trifled with. I heard that Xiao Yucheng was taken away by the people from the city today, and so was Bureau Chief Cheng. At this time, they are already interrogating the city to identify their relatives. "
"I didn't ask about this." Luoqiu shook his head.
The driver was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "I just quietly went to burn incense for Grandma Xiaochun. Then, I also took a look at Tingting and the child … There is nothing to worry about."
From the perspective of the rearview mirror, the driver was actually very young, probably in his early twenties.
Around his neck, there was a grey scarf of a single design that wasn't even that well-made … Under the scarf, one could see a key hanging on a silver chain.
The key could be transformed into a weapon at will … a sword known as the Divine Weapon: Zhanlu.
"Then, please work hard in the future." Luoqiu smiled slightly and looked out of the car window.
The driver suddenly said at this moment, "I … I actually gave the child's soul to …"
"Then, extend your tenure a little longer." Luoqiu responded indifferently, "Black Soul Messenger is not a fun job. Maybe you will resent me in the future … By the way, shouldn't you look at the road in front when you drive? It is not good to drive dangerously. I know this very well. "
"I got it." The driver nodded, "From now on, Taisetsu Wei is the sword in your hand … my master."
…
The voice of the lines came from the TV. Mrs. Lin suddenly yawned, then drank some water and began to pick up the needle again.
The new scarf had already started, but she was slow at knitting, so she had to knit slowly.
When she finished, should she try knitting a sweater? Mrs. Lin thought for a moment. She had touched Gan Jing several times. He was not fat, but was quite strong. Then, she should be able to grasp the size well, right?
Mrs. Lin smiled.
At this moment, the window beside the window swayed, and then something jumped onto the sofa. Mrs. Lin was startled.
But at this moment, she suddenly heard a cat's cry, and then something jumped onto her body and naughtily drilled into her arms.
"Where did this kitten come from?" Mrs. Lin lifted up the little guy who jumped in, "Why did you come to my house? Where is your master? "
"Meow —!"
"Don't you have a place to go?" Mrs. Lin asked.
"Meow —!"
Of course, Mrs. Lin didn't understand what the kitten said, but a kind of intimate feeling made her unable to put it down. Maybe it was a stray cat? She didn't find anything like a pet collar on the kitten.
"Then, you can stay here with me." Mrs. Lin smiled, holding the kitten and gently stroking it, "Well … your name will be Little Gan Jing from now on, okay?"
"Meow —!"
"What a good boy."
…
…
Late at night.
The motorcycle was speeding on the mountain road, and the rider was a young man. The young man didn't even wear a helmet, and his face was flushed.
He had just drunk wine, and now he was very excited. Then, he twisted the accelerator and sped up again.
Unexpectedly, the effect of the alcohol was too strong. He was a little confused, and the motorcycle rushed to the railing on the road, throwing him out.
Extreme joy begets sorrow.
The young man's body rolled down all the way, and finally fell into the reservoir here with a splash … The cold water of the reservoir immediately woke him up.
The young man struggled to swim to the edge … He was actually a good swimmer, and often came to this place to swim secretly before.
But at this moment, something grabbed his feet and pulled him into the water fiercely!
Like arms … many, many arms!
The young man struggled in pain, and the cold water poured into his mouth and nose. Finally, his whole body was dragged into the water … and was completely swallowed by the cold and darkness.
The water surface was calm again.
A crooked warning sign on the edge still said: The reservoir is dangerous, don't play with water.
Then, who will be the next person to drown?
Is it you?
