End of ten days

The three of us lowered our heads and no one spoke.

Everyone seemed unable to accept that this day had actually come.

Seeing that we kept our heads down and silent, Brother Aries stood up with a smile and said, "Actually, I don't want to go out, but I've been here for too long... It's time to go out and have a look."

"Brother Yang..." Uncle Tiger said in a low voice, "I, I said it before... you can leave when you should... don't have to worry about us... after all, we are all burdens..."

This sentence is like a pen dipped in ink, which deepens the feeling of loss in our hearts. 🄲

"You are not a burden. On this "train"... you are my family." Brother Aries said, "I will leave right away. Before that, I don't want to hear sad remarks."

"Brother Sheep..." Uncle Tiger's voice was choked up, "They say that once you become "Heaven", you can come and go here freely... But we don't know each other's appearance or name... How can I find you? How do I know if you are out or back? I..."

"Tiger, I promise you." Brother Aries said, "After I become "Heaven", I will definitely come back to see you. When I come back here... I will definitely leave a mark on you. I will leave a mark on you wherever I go. The horns are painted all over to guide you in the direction of progress.”

"Really...?" Uncle Tiger asked.

"Really." Brother Aries nodded, "If you are already at the "earth level" by then, then I will personally visit your game to see your progress."

"Okay!" Uncle Tiger suddenly stood up, "Brother Yang! We have agreed... If I become a "prefecture level" and there is no news from you for a day, I will not kill anyone for a day."

"Ha!" Brother Aries smiled bitterly, "Tiger, are you punishing me or yourself?"

"I don't care!" Uncle Tiger waved his hand, "We agreed anyway! I will always wait for your news!"

"Okay." Brother Aries nodded.

After saying this, Brother Yang turned to look at Uncle Snake again.

He was silent for a while, then took out a thick notebook from his arms

\u003c/di\u003e

Passed it to Uncle Snake.

"Brother Yang... is this...?" Uncle Snake asked.

"I owe you something." Brother Aries said, "So I also paved a way for you."

"What……?"

"I wrote down a hundred difficult questions." Brother Aries said, "If you can write down all the answers one day, I will definitely come back and find a way to make you an "earth snake"."

"A hundred difficult questions..." Uncle Snake took the book and lowered his head silently, "Brother Yang...are you really trying to comfort me? With my brain...how can I answer the riddles you wrote? question?"

"It will happen one day." He smiled at Uncle Snake, "This is the agreement between you and me, and we have agreed."

Uncle Snake smiled bitterly: "Brother Yang... you are obviously leaving, but you still think about us... are you afraid that we will lose the motivation to move forward...?"

Brother Aries didn't answer, just shook his head and said, "I still need you two to promise me something."

"What's up……?"

"Take care of the mouse for me." Brother Aries pointed at me, "Remember what I said, only we can teach her a lesson in this world, no one can do it except us."

After hearing this sentence, I finally couldn't help it.

My tears kept streaming down inside the mask, which made me very uncomfortable.

Brother Aries is leaving.

This Aries brother who gave me food, gave me a place to live, didn't mind that I couldn't earn "Tao", and helped me stand out is leaving.

I will never see him again.

On this train, no other "zodiac sign" will love me so much.

"Brother Aries..." I stood up, crying so hard that I couldn't breathe, "Brother Aries... can you tell me your name... can you tell me

What do you look like..."

Uncle Tiger and Uncle Black Sheep ignored me, and now Brother Aries is leaving too.

He walked over slowly, touched my head gently, and then held me in his arms.

"Okay, Rat... don't cry." He said softly, "You don't need to know what I look like or my name, because I will recognize you immediately when I see you. You’ll notice that I don’t have the goat-like voice I have now.”

"But I don't want you to go..." I held Brother Aries' clothes tightly. I felt that if I let go this time, I would have nothing.

"It's time for you to grow up." Brother Aries said, "If it weren't for me... would you be able to earn the Tao?"

"I...I can..." I kept sobbing, feeling so uncomfortable.

"Then don't cry. I'll give you a good thing." As Brother Aries said, he took out two "Tao" pills from his arms. The two "Tao" pills looked like they had been there for a long time and were already a little black in color. "Rat, these two "Tao" are my lucky things. They were given to me by my two best brothers. I have carried them with me all these years. Now I give them to you."

"Lucky thing...?" I stretched out my hand and carefully took the two "Tao"s, as if they were holding my whole world.

"When we meet next time, give me ten pieces with interest." Brother Aries said with a smile, "We can have a good chat then, can you promise me?"

"I can!" I nodded vigorously.

That night, we watched Brother Aries crossing the entire train. Even Uncle Black Sheep, whom we had not seen for a long time, came out to salute him with attention.

All the "zodiac signs" walked out of the door respectfully and stood on both sides of the corridor to welcome the birth of a "heaven-level".

Their eyes were all complicated, but I was the only one who kept crying.

We saw with our own eyes that Brother Aries disappeared in a burst of golden light, and he completely left the "train".

Uncle Tiger hugged me from the side

\u003c/di\u003e

He looked at me and said softly: "Little mouse... I will be promoted to the "prefecture level" as soon as possible... From now on, I will give you snacks every day... Just wait for me for a few more days..."

I buried my head in Uncle Tiger's belly and cried very hard.

The three of us no longer have a teacher, and I no longer have my Aries brother.

After that, Uncle Tiger and Uncle Snake and I were sent to different new teacher rooms.

Looking at the large group of unfamiliar brothers and sisters, I felt very uneasy. I am a person who cannot earn "Tao" every day, so naturally I will not be liked by the new teacher.

In a place like this, only Brother Aries will not dislike me.

I miss Brother Aries all the time. The two "Tao" stones left in my hand are all my sustenance. I always look at them in a daze.

It has been more than ten days since Brother Aries left...

He should be back in the real world now, which is great...I...I'm happy for him.

Although I said I was happy...but I felt like crying for no reason.

Brother Aries...what do you look like and what is your name?

When we meet again, can you let me hear your real voice?

By then Uncle Tiger and Uncle Snake will also become "prefecture level", right? I wonder if we can continue to eat at the same table? At that time...will Uncle Tiger still give me chicken legs?

I was distracted when I saw two men and two women walking in the distance.

Ahhhh! Be a participant!

They are the first batch of participants after I perfected the rules!

I have a guest here!

Brother Aries! Just wait!

I will definitely earn ten "Tao" stars, and I will never embarrass you again! I will definitely scare you the next time we meet!

I'm Shu Hua... no, I'm Man-Rat.

I am Brother Aries' favorite student, and I am about to start my "test"!
