I'm going to restart my life

Chapter 253 [Ruyuan or Wish]

People always have two sides.

Even if the same thing is done by the same person, maybe he is doing it for two different purposes.

……

300 years ago, the Wu Family.

"It's time to deposit the keys."

In this cold hall, an indifferent voice came out.

The voice was indifferent and somewhat impersonal.

Listening to this voice, I understood one thing at a young age—the Wu family is a family living in a cage.

It was a cage called a sense of mission.

This cage is forcing every Wu family to self-sacrifice regardless of the cost, even the young children of the Wu family cannot escape.For children who yearn for a family, living in the Wu family is probably a kind of sadness.

I looked around, and the children around me were roughly the same as me. There were small tentacles on the chin, which was derived from genetics. There were twisted monks in the ancestors, and the appearance of the offspring was also affected.

But there is one child who is special, he is pure human.

Probably the main family of the Wu family.

I think so.

……

We were quickly sent to the Forbidden Island.

It's a pity that there is no one here to support us, and I noticed that some people even suppressed us unintentionally. Did we offend the higher-ups here?

Before we had time to think about it, we were driven to the garbage dump.

In Wu's house, although it was cold and unkind.But we children can be regarded as rich and well-clothed there anyway, and we have never suffered such suffering.

"I don't have tentacles, so let me take care of everyone!" The child from the master's family stood up.

What a fool.

I feel emotional in my heart.

He misunderstood our suppression as we have tentacles. Although this is indeed part of the reason, we have never practiced. As long as we live here for a while, our tentacles will disappear.

We're just being oppressed by the big guys here.

Will such a stupid guy become the main clan?
However, this smell of self-sacrifice seems to be the tradition of the Wu family.

Another man in a cage.

I looked at him silently behind the crowd, with a hint of disdain in my eyes, and... an envy and admiration that I didn't even know myself.

……

"I knew it, Ming is the most powerful!"

"Of course, I don't have tentacles. Food and the like can be found as soon as you reach out."

I watched Ming clenched his teeth and endured the pain, and I was a little speechless.

Probably because I am the youngest person here, everyone takes good care of me.

Silently accepting the food he exchanged for his dignity and body, I just buried my head in eating and didn't dare to look at him.

This time I saw the cage called a sense of mission.

But is that really a prison?

Enjoying the food that Ming brought me, I only know that I am living an extremely nourishing life under the shelter of this cage.

I probably understand that there must always be people in this world who are called by a sense of mission, and they are born to protect everyone.

I looked at Ming, hiding behind such a person, with an indescribable sense of security.

To be honest, I do envy him a little bit. If I was born without tentacles, would I dare to stand up and protect everyone like him?
I'm not sure.

But I understand the Wu family a little bit.

Who wouldn't want to be like that?

I continued to nibble on the food and looked at Ming who was comforting everyone in the crowd. The radiance from his body made me unforgettable.

……

Here is the cabin.

Before this, I didn't do nothing.I told every child about Ming's sacrifice.

I don't feel like I'm doing anything wrong.

Because his contribution must be known.

So we all secretly took turns to help Ming, and I went too.

But it was so painful, I couldn't bear the pain.That group of people were very cruel and very good at torturing people.

So after that, every time I ate the food Ming brought, I always had phantom pains, but I only got that one beating.Since then, when everyone eats, they just lower their heads and dare not look at Ming.

Maybe seeing us down, Ming started to keep us motivated.

"I'll find a boat like that," he said with a smile.

And everyone's heads hang lower.

I couldn't help feeling that the education of the Wu family really failed. They taught me for so many years, but I didn't succumb to the so-called mission.But with Ming leading by example, I am willing to believe him even if it is such nonsense as the non-existent ship.

So I occasionally start fantasizing, let Ming have a good rest.

Then I will protect Ming.

But fantasies are fantasies after all, not only did I fail to protect Ming, I also screwed up everything.

Waking up from the dream, the reality is a mess.

When the man came to the garbage dump and he took the initiative to expose Ming, Ming was still carrying it; but when Ming saw Tie Ping take off his shirt and show his scars, he burst into tears, like a dignified and alive man. Values ​​have been severely trampled on.

It seemed to negate his efforts all of a sudden, he didn't shelter us, we were still hurt.

It was the first time I saw him so embarrassed.

I felt like I had done something wrong, I shouldn't have shown off my cleverness and told others.Regret and self-blame swirled in my eyes.

This is the first time I have personally realized a truth, sometimes concealing may be another kind of wisdom.

……

And thankfully, that man was a good guy.

A man who has been imprisoned for many years.

He took us to a prison—a cozy log cabin.

And said, this is our cage from now on, we are prisoners, and he is the warden.

I laughed happily. Although this cage is a little different, I still have my own cage.

This night, I was so happy that I couldn't sleep.

Probably I was born smarter than others. Other children had no ideals or goals, so they went to bed early.

But as long as I think that I can become a person like Ming, I am so excited that I can't sleep.

"tread."

Footsteps stepped on the wooden board, making a childish sound.

Ming went out.

I quietly got up and followed behind him.

Looking outside the house, the two were sitting on the ground, chatting without saying a word.

I couldn't hear their conversation in the room, but I knew that the two of them were of the same kind, they hit it off very well, and Li Changye always looked at Ming differently.

I watched them sitting there enviously.

I really want to sit next to them and talk with them.

I really want to, I really want to.

"tread."

Ming got up and walked back to the wooden house, and I hurried back to my place, pretending to be asleep.

"Click."

The door was closed and Ming came in.

But I couldn't fall asleep anyway, I turned sideways and opened my eyes wide, and my mind was full of images of those two people talking under the moonlight.

I don't know how long it took.

I got up anxiously, but still couldn't fall asleep.At this moment, I suddenly thought that the man seemed to be still outside and hadn't come back.

I quietly walked out of the cabin.

Looking around happily.

But only saw one person floating in the sea of ​​desire for snakes.
