[Douluo] I just want to be a disabled person
Chapter 30 The Final Truth
However, thankfully - those "long-lasting affection" came to an end after the rafting, and they no longer tortured Tang Lingyi's body and mind, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
The boring life passed quickly, and the Anshi Rebellion came in a blink of an eye.
Tang Lingyi gradually lost her smile as she watched the war scenes on the screen, and Tang San stopped saying funny words to deliberately make her "angry". In the face of the tragic war, frivolity seems superfluous.
The scene switched to the scene of "Tang San" descending the mountain. Looking at his fragile appearance inside, Tang San suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He turned his head slightly, as if to cover up the blush on his cheeks.
But the moment he turned his head, he saw a teardrop sliding down Tang Lingyi's cheek.
Lingyi, she...cryed?
Tang San was a little confused, after all, he had never seen Tang Lingyi look so fragile. The crystal tears fell down in a series of "puff, plop", and the expressionless face was written with indescribable sadness.
Tang San tentatively stretched out his hand to hold her, and patted her shoulder gently: "Lingyi... stop crying."
"Crying? I didn't..." Tang Lingyi came to her senses and was about to retort when she saw her wet clothes. She was stunned for a moment, and her words were filled with confusion and disbelief: "Am I crying?"
"...I actually cried!" Tang Lingyi paused, her fingers unconsciously clutching her shirt and skirt.
Tang San hugged her, his warm breath brushing against her ears: "I've already avenged you, okay?"
He gently wiped away the remaining tears on Tang Lingyi's face, with a gentle expression and concern and worry in his eyes.
Tang Lingyi said nothing and lowered her head blankly, not knowing what she was thinking. After a few seconds, she suddenly stretched out her hand and actively put it around Tang San's neck, and her inaudible voice came clearly into Tang San's ears: "Thank you."
Then he quickly pushed Tang San away, expressing the four words "crossing the river and burning the bridge" vividly.
Tang Lingyi coughed lightly, her eyes wandering involuntarily: "Ahem, what the heck... I didn't expect you to be so good, little brat, that you even..."
Tang San was made to laugh and cry by her throw away attitude: "That's all you want to say?"
"Then...what should I say?" Tang Lingyi asked sincerely.
Looking at those eyes filled with purity and integrity, Tang San swallowed the witty words on his lips.
Tang San: Forget it, don’t be in a hurry right now.
He sighed silently and pointed around: "How are we going to get out now?"
"I don't know." Tang Lingyi replied very bachelorly, "And shouldn't I ask you this kind of question? I'm just a scumbag who is keen on paddling and fishing."
Tang Lingyi retorted about geography with confidence. After all, under the guidance of the master, although she was familiar with the knowledge in those notebooks, she didn't listen at all to what the teacher taught in class. How to go out is such a profound topic at first glance... ...Why do you ask her, a disobedient student?
Looking at her rogue appearance, Tang San's hands felt inexplicably itchy: "..."
You know you are a scumbag, but you are still proud?
Tang Lingyi blinked: Average, third in the world.
Tang San twitched the corner of his mouth, leaned down, pinched Tang Lingyi's face and rubbed it: "How to get out... Don't you know, Lingyi?"
"How could I..." Tang Lingyi, who was pinched again, was about to retort when he heard the calm-looking young man in front of him continue to add unhurriedly: "As the master of the dream... Lingyi, don't you know how? Going out?"
Tang Lingyi was startled when she heard this, then looked at his determined expression and suddenly smiled: "You know."
"Yes." Tang San nodded, stood up and walked slowly behind her, put his hands on Tang Lingyi's shoulders, and explained: "If we have escaped from the dream and returned to reality, then my soul power can't be used here. It can be used normally, but yours can... Isn't it strange? Looking at it this way - the answer is obvious. We are still in the dream created by the fantasy beast, and just now, it was probably a dream within a dream, right? "
Although it was written as a question, the unquestionable attitude seemed more like a direct challenge to reality.
After listening to his report, Tang Lingyi didn't feel panic at all and praised leisurely: "You are so smart."
"But." She then changed her tone, "Then how are we going to get out? Although I also know that I am the master of the dream, even I don't know how to leave?"
Her attitude was quite straightforward, with the words "I know, but I don't know how" written on her face.
Tang San didn't feel surprised when he heard her doubts. He sighed softly: "Lingyi... you have been imprisoned here before, right?"
Tang Lingyi paused after hearing this and said nothing.
Tang San, who was standing behind him, couldn't see her expression, or... he deliberately walked behind Tang Lingyi so that he wouldn't see her expression.
Because he is afraid.
He was afraid that his next words would disappear under those sad eyes.
Tang San didn't want to rub salt into her wounds, but - leaving the wound with rotten flesh to grow would only cause disaster. If the barbs are not removed from the scar that has absorbed nutrients, it will only cause greater pain.
They need to be removed by their master's own hands. Even if they are cut out with flesh and blood, this must be done.
Running away won't solve anything.
"You are indeed very smart." Tang Lingyi suddenly sighed and lowered his head slightly: "This is a quite long story."
"I know." Tang San hugged her from behind and gently placed his head on her shoulder: "Lingyi, I'll accompany you. I want to hear this story."
"...let me go first." Tang Lingyi couldn't bear it and pushed his head away, saying awkwardly: "Just listen, why are you so close? Don't you know whether men and women are intimate or not?"
Do men and women give or take each other?
Tang San raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, how could Ling Yi, who had always regarded him as a "little brat", say such a thing?
Is the sun coming out in the west today? Or...facts are always more convincing than promises?
Turning his head and catching a glimpse of the faint blush in the girl's ears, Tang San decided to leave it at that. He retracted his hands in an extremely obedient manner and walked to Tang Lingyi, making a listening gesture.
The girl let out a light "tsk" when she saw this, but didn't say anything. She cleared her throat and began to tell the story slowly.
"In the year 737, a Taoist priest from Chunyang calculated that the Tang Dynasty would collapse and the prosperous age would be in chaos. Traitors and villains sought power and usurped the throne, which made the people miserable, and all the major sects in the world could not escape the fate of decline and destruction... At that time, Emperor Xuanzong favored his concubine You What's more, the uncle's power is overwhelming, and the situation in the world is in chaos. In order to save the decline, Chunyang convened the leaders of the Shaolin Temple, Wanhua Valley, Tang Sect and other sects to discuss the matter. After many discussions, it was decided to launch a 'salvation' plan. Inject the power of the 'Heavenly Stone' into the body of a dead baby to create a gifted 'person' to serve as the assassin of the rebellious minister."
"In the plan, the twenty-five people who successfully survived were brought back by each sect to be raised and received rigorous training and instruction."
Tang Lingyi paused for a moment, her expression very calm, as if she was telling other people's stories. Tang San listened a little dull, he opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse: "...So, Lingyi, it's the number - right?"
Tang Lingyi glanced at him approvingly: "How do you know?"
"Ye Shiqi once mentioned twenty-five people. Although he didn't say these, your names..." Tang San paused, unable to say the rest of his words.
He had seen Lingyi covered in bruises and on the verge of death, but he still persisted for the respect and love of the sect elders. Because she has such a happy "family", no matter how difficult the future is, she still grits her teeth and perseveres.
Tang Lingyi believed that the elders liked her... but she didn't expect that this liking turned out to be just a disguise for the tool.
The name that holds hope... is just a cold number.
Lingyi...01.
This is so - so ironic.
Tang Lingyi couldn't help laughing when she saw his expression that was even sadder than hers. She raised her hand and rubbed his head: "Okay, everything is over. Don't be unhappy, eh?"
Tang San nodded with a forced smile and motioned for her to continue.
Tang Lingyi thought about it for a moment: "You know the next thing, and I have nothing to say. I probably practiced hard, and then went to assassinate An Lushan... After I succeeded, I turned around but faced a sharp sword, and then I was caught. He was burned to death by fire. He felt nothing when he died. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was in a dark space with a light screen in front of him... and there were all kinds of things on it."
"Is that why you know so much about Maweipo?" Tang San thought of the conversation that night and suddenly realized.
"Yes." Tang Lingyi nodded indifferently, "After all, staying in a place like this, apart from watching them... Is there anything else I can see? However, I am actually quite happy to see them. Why do brothers turn against each other? The husband and wife parted ways, the mortal enemies shook hands and made peace... Tsk, this is so exciting."
She winked at Tang San in a funny way, and her funny expression made Tang San feel a little lighter: "Are you quite comfortable?"
"Absolutely." Tang Lingyi looked helpless, "After seeing that kind of thing too many times, you will suddenly feel that what happened to you is not a big deal, and you will have an epiphany. Tsk, isn't it? Growing up in lies and then being stripped to death? This kind of thing... happens once and becomes familiar twice."
Once... Tang San glared at her angrily: "Do you still want another time?"
"Emm, no, no." Tang Lingyi shook her head obediently, "I'm just trying to comfort you."
comfort?
Tang San felt a little heavy. At this time... who should comfort whom?
He suddenly reached out and hugged Tang Lingyi, with his face close to hers, and whispered into her ear: "It's very dark and cold here... right?"
"Wha, what?" Tang Lingyi was a little confused by his actions, and a look of uneasiness flashed across her face quickly: "What did you say?"
"I asked you at first if you had been imprisoned here, but you didn't deny it. Later, you said you didn't care about the past when you were watching them here... Lingyi, how long have you been here?" Tang San's heart was heavy, and the girl in her arms always liked to brush off the past pain and laugh at the suffering... She was so sensible and open-minded that it made people feel heartbroken.
Tang Lingyi's tense body relaxed and she smiled: "I really can't hide anything from you."
"...Then why is Ling Yi unhappy?" Tang San was silent and didn't answer.
Tang Lingyi thought for a while: "Probably because of being abandoned."
She felt that there was nothing hard to say about this. After all, this guy already knew his past very well. If she hadn't told him, he would have guessed everything.
And... she doesn't find it difficult to talk about things that she has already accepted.
The reason why I feel unhappy is that it is difficult to accept it emotionally. Sometimes, it is one thing to understand the truth... but it is another thing to accept it willingly.
After being decisively abandoned, she didn't even have the chance to act coquettishly and complain... If she wasn't happy, she could only endure it.
It's like scratching an itch - to no avail.
Knowing that she was holding on because of her unwillingness to be given up, Tang San's eyes darkened. He hugged the girl in his arms tightly and said softly: "I will always stay with Ling Yi from now on, okay?"
All the time... Tang Lingyi's eyes twitched when she heard this: "Do you think... I lack love? Such words can be said nonsense. No one in this world can always stay with someone. Family and friends... will be separated. of."
In fact, she has already accepted these realities, so she has the laziness of seeing through the facts.
Tang San chuckled lightly, not being affected by her words at all: "You are right, Lingyi. But there is a kind of relationship in this world... that can never be separated."
Tang Lingyi raised her eyebrows: "You can't mean..."
"It's my lover." Tang San's words confirmed her guess. Tang Lingyi couldn't help but smile. She was about to say something like "The most unreliable thing in the world is love" or "Children should read less romance books". He raised his eyes and met those eyes that were shining with determination and persistence.
She forgot what she was going to say for a moment, so she could only curl her lips and smile: "I don't believe in promises."
"Then you can look at the facts." Tang San was not afraid of her doubts and raised his hand to touch her eyes: "I will do it."
Those eyes were so hot that Tang Lingyi's heart wavered, and she lowered her head and missed his eyes. She sighed helplessly: "...I am really defeated by you. Well, since you said so. Then - I will wait."
After her words fell to the ground, the surrounding dark environment suddenly shattered along the cracks that appeared out of thin air like a broken mirror, and then slowly disappeared into the air.
The two of them felt dizzy for a while, and when they opened their eyes again, they found that they were back in the Star Forest.
The warm sunshine, the tall trees, and the two corpses with purple soul rings floating in front of them... It seems that this matter has been solved perfectly.
Tang Lingyi and Tang San looked at each other and smiled in unison.
When the two of them were about to take a step forward and release their martial souls to draw the soul rings to absorb them and finish the rest of the trip early, something unexpected happened.
