When the magic flower blooms

In the three years after leaving Yinshan, Tianze traveled almost all over the country, and also saw the customs and customs of various places.Contrary to the "peace and prosperity" preached on Yinshan Mountain, the reality has never been truly happy.

Only slowly did he realize that the Goldfish Village that he burned to the ground had never really disappeared.It has long since become ubiquitous, deeply rooted in every corner of the world.

In the spring of the third year, he discovered a small hidden island in Taihu Lake.There is a large pit on the island, and hundreds of deformed demihuman corpses are dumped in the pit.

He squatted by the pit for three days and three nights, finally caught a few fellows who came to dump the corpses on boats, and forced them to take him to the "Wanhualou" on another small island.

That is another "goldfish village".

The 21-year-old Tianze is no longer the helpless boy he was ten years ago, and it is not difficult for him to bloodbath a Wanhua Building.But he soon realized that the real difficulty lay ahead.

The boat was ready, but none of the slaves he rescued left.One by one, they were either fearful or dull, swarming around Tianze like a school of fish.

It's not that I don't want to go, but I don't know where else I can shelter; I don't know how far I need to go to get rid of the nightmare and find a place of real peace of mind.

What made Tian Zeyi even more unexpected was that someone in this group actually called out his name.

It took him a while to recall that it was a shark boy who stood in the same queue with his sister ten years ago, waiting for the general to pick him.

Back then he let them jump into the well and escape along the dark river leading to the sea.But he didn't expect that after leaving the tiger's den, he entered the wolf's den again. The sisters who fled together either disappeared or were also captured, and spent their lives little by little in this Wanhualou.

Looking at the girl's tear-stained face, Tian Ze knew for the first time in his life what he should do.

Wanhualou was burned.

On the scorched flat ground, a new banner was erected.

"It turns out that this is the origin of the Hidden Dragon Club."

Naga sighed softly, "Heaven does not help people, but people help themselves. If we just keep this original intention, I am afraid that we will not end up in such a field."

Just as I was talking, I saw another change like a revolving lantern in front of my eyes.Time passed quickly again.

Qianlong will continue to grow and develop, sheltering more and more low-level demihumans, and constantly challenging the seemingly strict hierarchical authority.In the decades that followed, they plotted assassinations, subversions, betrayals, and encirclement.

Between the end of the mountain and the rebirth of the desperate, a hundred years passed by at the flick of a finger.

As far as the eye can see, dynasties have changed and soldiers have risen all over the world; and those people in the Qianlong Society who followed Tianze through life and death, after all, were no match for the erosion of the years, and disappeared in front of him one by one.

From nothing to nothing.It's like quicksand on your fingertips, it can't stay no matter what.

After realizing this, Tianze began to self-isolate unconsciously.

Anyway, the Qianlong Club is no longer his own Qianlong Club. Various interests, loves and hates have already interwoven a complicated network inside.

He chose to live in seclusion and quietly returned to Yinshan.

Times have changed, and the master and brothers have already traveled westward on a crane.The courtyard where he practiced back then has become dilapidated and overgrown with decaying grass.

He guarded the grave for his master in front of the grave, day after day, until he himself fell asleep.

Tianze seemed to have been asleep for a long time.Because the entire illusion fell into a long period of chaos.Even if some pictures flash by, they are all fleeting and cannot be seen clearly.

"I heard from Mr. Lu that the demise of the legendary species starts from the heart."

Naga, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "They were world-weary first, then they began to isolate themselves, fell into a long sleep, and finally disappeared in deep sleep."

Ming Ruoxing heard his despondency, and said softly: "You definitely won't."

Naga smiled wryly: "Then tell me, will I be like Tian Ze, who will live for a long time without dying?"

"..."

Ming Ruoxing felt that the answer was extremely likely to be yes, but he also understood that what Naga needed was not an affirmative answer.

"I won't leave you alone."

Although he didn't have much confidence, he still answered like this.

Naga laughed again, and lowered his head to Ming Ruoxing's forehead.

"If you die one day, I will go with you. Anyway, this world doesn't need umbrella species, let alone a widowed old man."

"Do not be silly……"

Just as Ming Ruoxing was about to reply, the chaos in front of him suddenly brightened.

Tian Ze was awakened from his deep sleep again.

Those who wake up Tianze are still members of the Qianlong Society, but time has changed, and a dream in the mountain has passed a hundred years in the world.

The feudal dynasty has come to an end, and the rich and powerful are no longer domineering and domineering in the past.But the flames of war remain, and the country is in shambles.

The people who raised slaves for their own selfish desires disappeared, but the Qianlong Society was suffering an unprecedented huge impact—those invaders from the east, wantonly capturing weak demihumans in the name of a demon called "science", Experiment with all kinds of cruel and despicable means.

The scenes that followed were unbearable to watch.Even if it was just a quick glance, it still made Ming Ruoxing feel grief and indignation.

Fortunately, the demon was eventually driven back to Japan.The blood-soaked earth finally calmed down again.

After the heavy damage, Qianlong will be left to waste, but this also brings new concerns to Tianze.

He has missed too much in the past hundred years, and there are many things that need to be learned from scratch.A new world pattern, a new way of life, a new language...and, that demon named "Science".

The era when demihuman powers were attributed to "spells" has gradually faded away.Technology is gradually realizing the "miracles" that have never been realized by various "spells", and at the same time, it is constantly bringing monsters that only exist in ancient legends into people's sight.

For many people in the Qianlong Club, "becoming stronger" began to have another new meaning: not only for the weak to keep warm, but also to use the power of science to transform themselves.

For this change, Tianze originally disagreed.

He believes that this "becoming stronger" is exactly the same nature as the reproduction that happened to the mermen in Jinyu Village.Going against the sky will not have any good results in the end.

However, others do not seem to understand his hidden worries.

"Is it wrong for people to want to become stronger and to go beyond their own limits?"

"The umbrella species and the dominant species are born superior?"

"Mr. Amazawa, in the final analysis, it is still impossible for you to understand the pain of those of us who have no power."

…………

When he found that his own existence had also become part of the contradiction, Tianze made a compromise.

The lighthouse on Liuzhu Island lit up.The first demihuman orphans after the war were sent to the island.Here, they not only healed the internal and external wounds caused by the war, but also began to accept the latest "teaching" after the reform of Qianlong Society-in order to become stronger, they can do whatever it takes.

With the confidential documents obtained when destroying the demon laboratory, Qianlong Society established the first biological laboratory, secretly conducting various incredible demihuman enhancement experiments.The experiment required a lot of materials and funds, that is, from that time on, Qianlong Society began to sell some of the research results to partners.This point was also inherited by the Chimera in the future.

Year after year, Liuzhu Island has welcomed batch after batch of orphans.Among them, some died in the intensive experiment, some were still sick and disabled for life, but some became the mainstay of Qianlong Society in the future, or a new generation of top researchers.

Jiang Yueming was the latter.

When Tianze first met Jiang Yueming on Liuzhu Island, the latter was only seven or eight years old.To be honest, that meeting did not leave a deep impression on Tianze.One is because he doesn't go to the island often, and the other is that there are too many children on the island, and Jiang Yueming is not the kind of special existence that people can never forget.

Because of this, the picture in front of Naga and Ming Ruoxing is also blurred.A group of children can be vaguely seen surrounding the nearby Tianze, and under the wisteria shelf a little further away, a young man with a book in his arms is quietly looking towards this side.

For some reason, Ming Ruoxing felt that Jiang Yueming's eyes should be full of admiration and longing.

After that, the picture gradually became clearer.Branches of wisteria hung long from the trellis, and the playground, covered with cinders and gravel, became a lawn.The children were still laughing and shouting on the lawn, but the quiet boy back then had become a handsome young man in a white coat.

He is the most promising scholar in Liuzhuyu Laboratory, and also the backbone of the new generation of Qianlong Society.Relying on the dazzling status of a new star, Jiang Yueming finally officially came to Tianze's side, and the longing and admiration eyes were not fading away, but seemed to be getting brighter.

The screen suddenly flickered again.

Unlike the previous blur, Tianze obviously does not want to expose this part of the memory to others too much.

"Tsk..."

Ming Ruoxing and Naga made regretful voices at the same time, and then looked at each other because of the voice.

Ming Ruoxing hesitated, and raised the biggest doubt in his heart at the moment:

"You just said that Tianze is your father. The DNA test results show that Jiang Yueming is a relative on your mother's side. So, you are a female relative of your father and Dr. Jiang..."

"Jiang Yueming is an orphan and has no relatives."

Naga corrected his assumption, and then said his answer, "I am the child of Tianze and Jiang Yueming."

"I disagree!"

A loud negative sounded suddenly, bringing the two people's attention back to the picture in front of them.

Tian Ze was staring at Jiang Yueming with a serious expression.

Just now, Jiang Yueming made a proposal that was so bold that it was almost absurd: he wanted to "create" a child that he and Tianze shared.

And this suggestion is not a whim.

"Why not? Your life is longer than any of us. Don't you want someone to accompany you all the time? A person's life is limited after all, but a family can be passed down from generation to generation. I want to be Your family wants to create a home for you...Maybe a woman can do all of this, but I can't bear that person is not me..."

When he said these words, what appeared on Jiang Yueming's face was persistence and stubbornness that rarely appeared.

But in Tian Ze's eyes, this kind of persistence is childish whimsy.

Even though he could shelter other people's children, he never hoped to have his own heirs.Because of his childhood experience, he subconsciously resisted reproduction.Therefore, he always keeps a certain distance from women who have a good impression of him.

I don't want my bloodline to continue, I don't want to break away from my protection one day, and let these children become someone else's test product.

What's more, the reproduction between men is impossible.Although he didn't know much about the results in the laboratory, he also understood that such technology was not fully realized at that time.

As a result of each insisting on their opinions, the two had an unprecedented quarrel and entered the Cold War period.Jiang Yueming returned to Liuzhu Island alone, devoting all her heart to research.And Tianze met the most important opponent in his life.

Chimera.

The author has something to say: think of that sentence: companionship is the longest confession of love.For Tianze, perhaps it is doomed that no one can accompany him all the time.

But Jiang Yueming was able to give him this chance.

There are still eleven or twelve chapters left before the finale of this story

Every time when I am about to finish writing, I always feel that I have something to say, but when I really finish writing, it feels like running 800 meters to the finish line. I just want to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead, without saying a word.
