[Tanhua Modern] Blackening cannot always save the world

Everyone has a secret, and the secret is something that many people would rather rot in their bones than take it out to bask in the sun.Sometimes it may be a treasure, but more often it is like a sore.

Zhuo Donglai is undoubtedly a person with many secrets. His origin is inexplicable. Some people once speculated that he might be the heir of a small country, but it was only wild and unconfirmed.

He likes the treacherous and noble purple, and his whole person reveals a kind of mysterious elegance emanating from his bones. He once attracted many people to be obsessed and intoxicated. It's just that the Ziji founded by him has grown step by step, and its unstoppable momentum has gradually become a behemoth in the business world......

But Zhuo Donglai himself knew that he was far from being as noble as the outside world guessed.It's just that no one knows that he lived in an orphanage, and wandered like a wild dog, entangled and fought with others for a bite of food.After being adopted by Flowing Water, life has changed from an unorganized and purposeless struggle for survival to an organized and purposeful struggle for survival.

Every country has dark corners, and the organization under Liu Shui's control is the epitome of country H's darkness.He was just one of the many orphans he adopted at that time. Although he was far smarter and calmer than his peers, he was as inconspicuous as a speck of dust in a corner at that time.

He later learned that Miao Jiang had an ancient technique for selecting Gu kings, and Liu Shui knew it well. A group of half-grown children were poisonous insects, snakes and scorpions he collected from all over the world. He taught them various methods to kill people. , Survival, everything that one expects to find... In one year, he let every child understand how easy it is to die, and how difficult it is to survive.A year later, he threw them into the black jar he carefully prepared, and let them fight each other, leaving the most ferocious one alive to the end, that is his trump card, his Gu King.

Zhuo Donglai felt disgusted at the first sight of running water, only a ten-year-old child, inexplicably saw the malice and ambition buried under his hypocritical smile when they met for the first time.But he only has patience. □□[-]% of the sins in the world come from being weak. As weak as he is, what life has taught him the most is forbearance. Before he is strong, it may be called dormancy...... ..

People like them shouldn't have friends, but he still has them.The oldest of this group of children was only 12 years old, and the one who became friends with him later was the oldest child. Zhuo Donglai couldn't understand the sunny smile on his face that would never disappear, but he couldn't stop him from squeezing in forcefully. His own life, he silently compromised.Maybe it's because it's always easy to have feelings because we are in trouble together, or maybe it's because no one has ever expressed kindness to him. Later, Zhuo Donglai imagined many reasons, but he still couldn't find a definite one. It seemed so inexplicable, and they became friends.

Before entering the deserted island full of miasma, his friends made an agreement with him to live and die together and support each other.Zhuo Donglai knew that Liu Shui would not allow it, but this was the only time he would rather risk his life than give in.At that time, the two of them made vows, their eyes were full of firmness, and they made innocent and passionate promises. This was perhaps the only teenage years that Zhuo Donglai had in his life.

They will stay on the island for seven full days, and he thought that he would definitely remember these seven days full of pain and struggle, but the memory that has gradually faded over the years told him that this was just what he thought, but only the last day was vividly remembered. new..........

Beside a thick bread tree, he was concentrating on arranging his weapons, but he heard familiar footsteps hurrying over.

"Donglai, I've found a way out!" The man's facial features had been blurred by years of wear and tear, but Zhuo Donglai still clearly remembered his excited distorted smile.This is not surprising, anyone who is thrown into this ghost place to be bored for a few days will not be in a normal mood.

"You found it?" Zhuo Donglai was a little suspicious.

"Of course, I have walked through it, there is no danger, it is very safe!" He hurriedly assured.

Zhuo Donglai frowned, he didn't believe that there was an absolutely safe place in this place, but he couldn't bear that person's rare insistence, so he compromised.In fact, he doesn't know that he usually tends to retreat from the people he cares about, not to mention that person is his only friend, and he hopes to live together and be friends for a lifetime.

But what happened next...... The poisonous snake suddenly sprang out from the grass, the man rolled in pain after being poisoned, he wailed and teared down his trousers and begged him to kill him... ......Scenes of noise crowded in his mind, until the sharp knife in his hand pierced the man's chest...... The whole world was quiet, and the sword pierced into him At the moment of flesh and blood, Zhuo Donglai was in a daze that a certain part of his body died and was strangled to death by his own hands...

He continued walking in a daze, letting the killing instinct carved in his bones kill him all the way. At that time, he didn't care about life or death, but he was still alive, and became the only child who came out of the whole island... .....

Flowing Water's exaggerated and presumptuous smile made him nauseous, the bright sun made his eyes black, the wound on his body was grim, and blood was gurgling. The fierce battle just now consumed too much energy, and his brain was running a little sluggishly. He casually wiped the sticky blood on his forehead, blinked tiredly and tried to stay awake, the dangerousness of this journey has nothing to do with safety...

In the blink of an eye, a chilling thought floated up in him, he gritted his teeth and refused to think about it... what's the use of thinking about it, his only friend has already been killed by his own hands ...... He thought they would be friends in the future, but the living and the dead cannot have a future......

"Dong Lai and they haven't come back yet..." Li Xun Huan absently wiped his wet hair, sat cross-legged on the bed, frowned, and his voice was worried.It was getting late now, and according to common sense, Zhuo Donglai and Lin Sheng should have come back early... He stopped the movements of his hands.

Lou Yi naturally took the soft towel from his hand, picked up his long hair to wipe off the water droplets on it, and casually replied:

"Both are adults, and whoever can control where they like to go with their feet."

Li Xun Huan frowned and retorted:

"That's normal, but the situation is special now..." But before he finished speaking, there was the sound of the bedroom door opening. There was a slamming sound of the door closing, and he stopped, subconsciously looking back at Lou Yi.

Lou Yi sneered, and said patiently:

"Aren't you coming back?" But I was grinding my teeth in my heart: These two rough bastards will charge an additional door frame wear fee......

Li Xun Huan's lips curled up, and he nodded, feeling that he was worrying too much, then moved back to the bed, moved his head to Lou Yi, and signaled him to continue.

Lou Yi laughed silently, his finger movements were gentle and skillful, Li Xun Huan pulled the quilt and hugged him into a ball, Xun Xun felt a little drowsy, but suddenly, Lou Yi's fingers rubbing his scalp froze, Li Xun Huan widened his eyes... .........

Through the thin walls, the depressing gasps make people imagine...  

Lou Yi: Damn it!Those two must be asked to add money! !

Li Xunhuan: It won't be what I thought it would be...

Li Xun Huan sat up suddenly as if being scalded, turned his head and looked at Lou Yi, the man's hoarse panting and suppressed humming became more and more clear in his ears...

He widened his eyes, looking terrified, suddenly, there was a muffled sound in his ear, as if some switch had been turned on, he stood up hastily, with an embarrassed expression on his face.

Seeing his bewildered embarrassment, as if he was neither sitting nor standing, Lou Yi's bad mood got better strangely, and he couldn't help but smirk:

"You know, young man, it's inevitable."

Li Xun Huan laughed dryly, in his blank memory there were very few similar things like this, hearing what Lou Yi said, it seemed that this kind of thing was natural, so he coughed and nodded calmly to show that he understood.It's just a pair of eyes wandering around the room, not seeing the person who is close at hand.

The blushing voice next door did not show signs of subsiding. Li Xun Huan stiffened on the spot as a log, and Lou Yi gradually couldn't sit still. His face was a little hot, and he couldn't help but secretly cursed the good physical strength of the two people next door... ..He coughed dryly, turned his back and took out two coats from the closet, turned to Li Xun Huan and said:

"Shall we... let's go out for a stroll?"

Hearing this, Li Xun Huan felt relieved and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Seeing his eagerness, Lou Yi raised the corners of his mouth without showing any signs: This ghost has been doing it for a long time, but I didn't expect his face to get thinner......

"I'll take you somewhere." Lou Yi shook off his windbreaker, smiling mysteriously.

Li Xun Huan frowned, seemed very interested, and replied with a light smile:

"it is good."

So the two tiptoed out of the door, and Lou Yi suddenly felt something was wrong when he got out of the door. ..

Li Xunhuan looked at this vengeful man speechlessly, and muttered funnyly:

"Be careful."

Lou Yi pouted:

"It's like being a thief in your own home..."

Li Xunhuan patted him on the shoulder with a good temper:

"Childish! Everyone is under the same roof, don't care about these details."

------

The night in early autumn was already a bit cold, the heater was turned on early in the car, and the sunroof was opened for ventilation.

"It is said that the hot air runs upwards." Li Xunhuan pondered for a while before reminding him in a roundabout way.

Lou Yi thought about it for a while, and then took out a set of silk quilts from the rear compartment and stuffed it into the passenger seat, motioning for Li Xun Huan to get in the car.

Li Xunhuan: "......." Actually what he wanted to remind was not this.

In the east of the city, there is a forest and pasture that is not open to the public. It is said that it was bought by some foolish and wealthy young masters as entertainment venues, but the young master is still used to the bustling bustle and bustle, and feeds mosquitoes on the mountain. It's not bad to have one or two encounters throughout the year.

After Lou Yi parked his car at the foot of the mountain, he dragged Li Xunhuan up the mountain, carrying the silk quilt he had brought with him from the car.There were no street lights on the mountain road, and the moonlight was dim. The weak neighing of the cicadas could be heard in the air, and there was still a faint mist of water. Li Xunhuan was always familiar with this kind of tranquility and darkness, but this time it seemed that the darkness was particularly reassuring.

There is a viewing platform on the top of the mountain, carefully surrounded by wooden railings, and there are three or two retro rocking chairs in the middle. Lou Yi spread the quilt on the rocking chair in twos and twos, and patted Li Xunhuan casually to signal Li Xunhuan to lie down here.

Li Xun Huan raised his eyebrows, and sat on it quite curiously. The night breeze was blowing, and the air in the mountains was extraordinarily fresh. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly, and curiously asked Lou Yi who was also lying beside him:

"Where did you find this place?"

Lou Yi raised his lips proudly:

"I specially asked people to repair this. You are the first person I brought here."

Li Xun Huan smiled and lay back, saying:

"Honored."

The sky in the autumn night is strangely high, the dark blue is dotted with silver sporadic, the curved chair frame rubs against the ground and makes a soft creaking sound, the night is unbelievably quiet... swaying , Li Xunhuan's thoughts began to run endlessly...

"An Zhi......So it turns out that Lin Sheng and Donglai have this kind of relationship." He suddenly realized, no wonder Lin Sheng decided to live in with Zhuo Donglai at that time.

Lou Yi was silent, and he also suddenly realized that these two people have such a relationship... There are many people in the circle who play with men and women, but he has never seen a real one. .

"Will you be disgusted?" Lou Yi, who was in a strange situation, actually asked this question.

"How could it be? As long as every feeling is sincere, it deserves to be respected." Li Xun Huan took it for granted.

Hearing what he said, Lou Yi felt a sense of relief, but for a moment he didn't know why he was nervous just now.

"Would you be disgusted?" Li Xun Huan's voice was raised a few degrees, not sure if it was an illusion.

"Of course not." Lou Yi replied without thinking, but after finishing speaking, he remembered that there seemed to be such a man who expressed his love to him... If that can be called love... ...... A trace of coldness flashed in Lou Yi's eyes.

There was another silence, the two quietly looked at the bright moon and sparse stars in the sky, and Lou Yi said for a long while:

"Looking for pleasure...... Have you ever thought about getting back your old memories?"

"Hmm....I thought about it when I was alone..." His voice was a little blurred, probably because he was sleepy.

"What about now?" Lou Yi's voice was a little nervous.

Now...... Li Xunhuan sighed and smiled:

"I think it's fine now. Let it be. The last life is over. The important thing is that I'm doing well now." There is nothing to remember, but now he is really good, so it is not important whether he has the past, after all, even if he had relatives and friends, it is impossible to still be there now.

Lou Yi pursed his lips and remained silent, his thoughts drifted back to the day when he asked Yuan Bufang......

"Amnesia, how is it possible?" Yuan Bufang sneered subconsciously when he heard his question.

Lou Yi frowned and stared at him.

"Hey, this ghost is not a human being. It's impossible to temporarily lose its function when it hits its head. Besides, amnesia is different from ordinary ghosts losing their minds. The reason why ghosts and ghosts can't remember the past is because they have to focus on the obsession in their hearts. Afterwards, sanity has almost disappeared, and it is almost impossible for a ghost to have amnesia like a human being and still be able to function normally, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless the ghost wants to forget something, because he can't choose, so he can only forget it all." Yuan Bufang clicked his lips.

"Can I forget?" Lou Yi frowned.

"Think about it, in fact, both humans and ghosts have self-protection mechanisms. When humans are still foolish and crazy, ghosts can't help it. If they don't want to become evil spirits, it's not difficult to choose to forget."

Seeing Lou Yi's expression was deep and silent, Yuan Bufang tentatively said:

"Who has amnesia..." It was Li Xunhuan, before he could utter his guess, he silenced under Lou Yi's stare.

...........................

"An Zhi, do you care that I haven't passed?" Li Xun Huan sighed.

"No, just forget it." If you choose to forget, I would rather you never remember it for the rest of your life, Lou Yi said in his heart.

"You are right, the past is over, now you should focus on creating the future, you can make a few more new friends, go to many places, you can go to places that you couldn't go to at that time... ..." Lou Yi gradually laughed.

Li Xunhuan narrowed his eyes slightly:

"Oh, I have. I have made new friends and met some people, including Donglai, Lin Sheng, Yuan Shengun, Han Junqing, Qin Luo, Doctor Yu...but the last What matters is you."

Lou Yi's body froze, he turned his head and saw Li Xun Huan's smiling side face, his eyes were slightly closed under the cold moonlight, he didn't look like a person in the world of mortals... He gradually softened his expression, closed his eyes and said in his heart:

Me too............

The cool breeze is gentle, the sound of insects fades away, and the night is safe...  

--------

The next day, all major media outlets suddenly reported the same news like a well, and City C was instantly ignited like a wooden barrel full of gunpowder, and the whole city was in an uproar!
