So death came

Extra Story: Lu Dingtian - Between Life and Death

It has been three days since I was taken away by the god of death.

Between the undead world and the human world, there is a transfer station called "Jiechuan".All the undead, after being harvested by the Death God's Scythe, will be sent here, waiting to be counted and resettled by the relevant God of Death, those who should go to hell, those who should go to the Grassland of the Dead, those who should stay... …stay on.

Lu Dingtian is still waiting.He experienced a rebirth, so the experience is a bit complicated, and the related death needs to be dealt with for a few days.In addition, there are a lot of undead in Jiechuan these days, so it has been three days, and he is still staying in the transfer station.

The undead came and went, only Lu Dingtian was still sitting there wearing the shackles used by the felons in the undead world.

He has been sitting in one place, neither moving nor looking around, just sitting there blankly, with neither happy nor sad expression, his eyes staring at a distant place.

Some curious undead once walked towards the direction of his sight, thinking they could find something, but until they bumped into Jie Chuanbi, they still found nothing, could only curse secretly, then turned and left.

"Is that guy stupid?"

Earlier that day, a group of intern Death Gods were urgently dispatched from the world of the undead.One of the interns, Death God, was ordered to take over as a substitute and continue to monitor Lu Dingtian.After staring at a wooden post for a full hour, the intern Reaper was finally tired.He found his colleague and quietly bit his ear.

The colleague leaned over and raised his fingers, and seriously taught Xiao Xianrou: "Don't underestimate him, he is a fugitive from the undead world. Let me tell you, if you let him escape again, you and I will not be able to eat and walk around!"

"I see!" Intern Death stuck out his tongue, "By the way, what did he do?"

"He escaped from the world of the undead, introduced technology beyond time and space, disrupted the global economy, and retaliated against many people, many of whom died because of him. You don't even know how much trouble he caused us," said a colleague His expression was a bit ugly, as if he had returned to those unbearable overtime years, "Oh, right. He also made a person who had devoted himself to him in two lifetimes to be persecuted to death. How is it, isn't it very cruel?"

The trainee died involuntarily shivering.Opening his mouth, he originally wanted to echo what his colleagues said, but for some reason, what he blurted out was: "I think, he must have some unavoidable difficulties."

"A newcomer is a newcomer," the colleague patted him disapprovingly, and sighed, "Who doesn't have his own difficulties in the human world? As long as you find the right angle, everyone is a victim, but we can sympathize ?"

The trainee death god secretly looked into Lu Dingtian's gray eyes, and a heart-piercing inexplicable pain suddenly surged in his heart, but luckily it was only for a moment.Clutching his chest, he defended softly: "I just feel..."

"He is miserable, and the young master of the Wen family who was killed by him is miserable. Forget it, I won't say anything," the colleague patted him on the shoulder, "I was also like this back then... You just came, and you will be fine if you stay a few more days." accustomed."

The intern Reaper was silent.After thinking about it, he still walked to Lu Dingtian's side and squatted down.

Lu Dingtian sat alone on the bench, and there was no one around.

Want to say something, but don't know what to say.The trainee Reaper also felt that he was very strange, so he had to desperately find a topic: "That... how long have you been here?"

Lu Dingtian's eyes continued to look forward, ignorant and out of focus.

His gaze was like a bird, and when he touched the comma-shaped mole on the right temple of the intern Death God, his expression suddenly changed drastically.Grasping the hand of the intern death god, Lu Dingtian opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Wen Gang?"

"Ah? Who are you talking about?" The intern Grim Reaper wanted to pull out his wrist, but was held tightly by Lu Dingtian, and there was no chance of escape.

"Wen Gang! Wen Gang! Do you know that I..."

The colleague came over, raised his hand to cover the power of the undead, opened Lu Dingtian's hand, and said sharply: "Lu Dingtian! Pay attention to your fugitive status! I tell you, threatening the staff is a more serious crime!"

"I didn't! He's Wen Gang!" Lu Dingtian roared.

All the undead around looked here.

"What Wen Gang? He's Little A, an intern Reaper who has just been transferred from the world of the undead. Little A, let's go." The colleague gave Lu Dingtian a dissatisfied look, pulled Xiao Xianrou, turned around and left.

The intern Reaper was dragged away, and looked back at Lu Dingtian halfway, his eyes were confused.

Lu Dingtian lay down on the bench slumped, and the countless apologies and despair in his heart surged up again.He won't admit it, no.The Grim Reaper just now must be Wen Gang.

In the previous life, he had a good relationship with Wen Gang, and he had laughed at his mole countless times, because the mole looked so strange, like a comma, wobbly, completely inconsistent with Wen Gang's temperament.

At that time, Wen Gang was not as silent and introverted as he was later. Instead, he grinned grinningly and punched him without hesitation, and didn't stop until he begged for mercy.

Although he is the eldest son of the family, he has never been favored and has been squeezed out by his family.The same is true for Wen Gang. They share the same illness and sympathize with each other, so they get along very well.

They once promised that they would rise up together, make those who humiliated themselves regret it, let the Lu Wen family be under their control, and slap those people in the face severely.At that time, they supported each other and licked each other's wounds.The relationship between each other is even difficult to simply define with "friendship".

Wen Gang has perseverance and has been fighting for his own goals, but he...he is just a coward.Without perseverance, indulge in pleasure, know what to do, but always become decadent and degenerate, and eventually become an unsupportable waste.

He is an incompetent person, his heart is higher than the sky, and his ability is thinner than paper.Even if he had to live again, he would still be like this.

But all this is not important anymore, because - Wen Gang has forgotten about him.

I heard from the passing undead that all the undead will eventually be thrown into the chaotic vortex, where they will be purified, their memories removed, and then shunted.Some undead will be promoted to become gods of death, but no matter what, all of them will lose all their previous memories.

So that's it?

He didn't have time to say anything to him.

He hasn't been able to say anything to him yet.

***

Life is a long suffering. Every minute and every second, we are enduring pain from all directions, but because we have experienced it for a long time, we get used to it.

Lu Dingtian has one thing, until now, until he is between life and death, he still can't figure it out.He couldn't figure out why his life could be so hard.

He believed everything wrongly, and paid everything wrongly, and there was no way to make up for all of this.

He looked at the undead coming and going, and sometimes thought, what would he do if he had a third life?

Are you desperately trying to make up for the outline?Hold Wen Gang's thigh tight?Reconcile the old relationship with Wen Gang, and then knock Susu out of the dust?

Lu Dingtian shook his head and deleted all the thoughts in his mind.

As Andre said, every action of a person will cause a series of changes.No single thing is isolated.Wen Gang is also very hard, because he has a good relationship with him, and the family pressure on him is not small at all.Trying to make up?I'm afraid that Wen Gang will die faster than himself.

What's more, after two lives, he believes in Wen Gang, but he no longer dares to believe in everything.He was afraid that he would be like this again when the time came, and everything would be proven wrong.He conceived countless life templates, but at the end of the deduction, he found that there was still only death waiting for him.

He remembered a game he once played.It is a survival word game. The protagonist is a double agent. He wanders among various forces and is constantly faced with various choices. If he chooses wrong, he will die.

Life is actually a game of choosing wrong or dying.We are walking in the thorns, and we will fall into the abyss at any time, and we cannot return to the update point. We can only do this, make mistakes again and again, and after a long journey, we will inevitably perish.

If you can come again, if you can come again...

He just wanted to say sorry to Wen Gang, and then disappeared into his world.

Incompetent and greedy, he is destined to only bring disaster to all he loves.

***

After waiting for another day, it was finally Lu Dingtian's turn.

The god of death in charge led him towards the direction of the whirlpool—it happened to be Little A.Along the way, they didn't speak a word.

"It's here, just close your eyes and jump down." After thinking for a while, Xiao A added, "Don't be afraid."

"I know, thank you." Lu Dingtian smiled gratefully and walked to the edge of the whirlpool.

The whirlpool was chaotic, washing away everything that stayed in the human world.The Lan wind came from nowhere, making Lu Dingtian's gray hair even more messy.

Another person came at the entrance of Jiechuan.A god of death called Xiao A, and Xiao A agreed, then turned and walked towards his colleagues.

The moment they passed each other, Lu Dingtian, who had been lowering his head, tremblingly said, "I'm sorry."

However, no one heard it, and Xiao A had already gone far away, so the words were shattered and scattered with the whistling of Lanfeng, until there was no trace.

Lu Dingtian laughed at himself and jumped into the vortex.

He saw light in the vortex, saw water, and saw his two lives like a tragic movie.He remembered everything, all his emotions were leaving his body, he had lost everything.

Another thing that has been experienced in the two lifetimes appeared in front of my eyes.

At that time, he was kicked out by the Lu family, living on the streets, giving up on himself.It was Wen Gang who spent two days and two nights driving to find him in the heavy rain.

Wen Gang, with red eyes, parked the car on the side of the road, walked over in a hurry, hugged the distraught self in his arms, and told him over and over again: "I will definitely help you!" , you must stand up, you must stand up."

In the previous life, he cried bitterly, but in the next life, his face was indifferent.

And between life and death, facing the almost realistic picture, his lips parted slightly, and he was speechless in the end.
