Chapter 161 Chapter 150 Nine "Why is it so cold?"

Along the way, the sky is getting dark.

Hui Shuhang placed the 500-man army behind him outside the city - if it was a picnic outside the city, it would be fine, if he entered the city and followed the army, then anyone who saw it would be trembling.

Su Mingan was thinking about his next move. When he raised his head, he heard the guards of the city gate talking to them, and suddenly let out a respectful voice.

"Hello, one copper coin is required to enter the city."

Perhaps because the clothes on them were too conspicuous, they were out of place with the simple and shabby people with luggage on their shoulders. When they entered the city, the surroundings seemed to be separated by a natural circle.The crying children stopped at this time when the adults stopped them, as if they were afraid of disturbing them.

Su Mingan watched Hui Shuhang pay the entry fee without saying a word, and then led him inside.

He heard a sound of water flowing, turned his head, and saw a river with lanterns floating on it.

"It's Lantern Festival in Kerry right now." Hui Shuhang said softly to him, "Because I thought you had never seen it before, so I brought you here."

Su Mingan looked at the river.

In the night of the Milky Way, the boat sails on both sides, the wind and the light gradually connect into a line, and the lights of the lotus flower shine all over the city.

Even though the sky is still shimmering, the river is like the Milky Way on the ground under the light of the stars in the air, giving people the illusion of being in a dream.

Surrounded by the cries of hawkers and the crisp laughter of children, all kinds of conversations belonging to the people are mixed together, and the cold wind soaked in festive atmosphere blows on the face.

He tightened the windbreaker on his body, and watched this beautiful scene, but felt that his body was getting colder... It was as if he was subconsciously chilling, and the temperature on his body was inevitably dropping bit by bit, gradually approaching the depths of the environment. temperature.

"...what's the matter with you?"

His hand was gently pulled up, and a warm energy came in. Hui Shuhang looked at him with concern in his eyes.

"It's so cold." Su Mingan said truthfully.

"En." Hui Shuhang didn't mean to say more.

She held his hand, and through a layer of silk gloves, he could feel that her hand was also cold, which was close to his own temperature.But strands of energy slowly flowed in from that end with warmth, gradually pulling him out of the ice cave.

The barrage looks very happy, and they seem to like this plot of two people holding hands:

【Take it! 】

[It has been taken long ago, I feel that it has been taken from the very beginning of the dungeon. 】

【Brother Ming'an, what route is this going to take, is it a regular army? 】

[It must be the front line, the advantage is too great, I can't see where he is in danger, it is too easy to earn a contribution...]

[This dungeon is so gentle, it’s much better than the previous underworld dungeons, I knew I would end up too...]

[No, the first few probably stayed in the first player's live broadcast room all the time. Let's take a look at the other players' live broadcast rooms. Those with low status are living a life like death... Everyone's life is as frightening as a quail. 】

[For details, refer to Haru Mizushimagawa, who was given away for free. 】

[I'm still very concerned about what Mizushimagawa Haru did!This person turned on and off the live broadcast without saying a word, could it really be...]

[It's over, Yueyue Prairie. 】

[It's over, Yu Ruohe Prairie. 】

[It's over, the Soviet-style prairie. 】

[It's over, I'm in the prairie too. 】

【—Wake up in front!It's time to get up and strike! 】

【…】

"Is this better?" Hui Shuhang asked softly.

Her tone was extremely gentle, completely different from her previous attitude towards her subordinates' orders, and her gentleness seemed to only be displayed at this time.The solid ice on the shell completely melted, and the energy she passed over was like the temperature in her eyes at this moment.

"...Why is it so cold." Su Mingan said in a declarative tone, as if muttering to himself.

"Because it's the polar night period." She said, "It's okay, the warmth will come... After your coming-of-age ceremony, there will never be such a cold season again."

She took Su Mingan's hand and walked forward slowly.

Along the way, Su Mingan saw a lot.

Hui Shuhang didn't lead him to walk on the avenue, because as soon as they walked on the avenue, their clothes would be noticed and saluted by everyone.Walking through the streets and alleys, he heard bursts of laughter and saw many homeless people sleeping on the ground wrapped in oiled paper.

Beside the fountain in the square, there were troubadours with bags on their backs, children who were happy for the celebration, and passers-by in rich clothes. Hui Shuhang bought him a bunch of things like candied haws, saying that it would add some festive atmosphere.

"Meow..."

When passing by an alley, he gnawed on the food in his hand, and heard a sound like a cat meowing.

He turned his head sideways, looked in, and saw that there was a black cat staring at him in the corner where no light came in.The cardboard box creaked and moaned under the cat's paws.

He didn't want to pay any more attention at first, but he saw a layer of frost on the side of the cardboard box.

In an alley filled with clay pots and cloth bags, an old man was leaning against the wall, his skin wrinkled like the bark of an old tree.When he looked carefully, he saw that a thin layer of frost had condensed on this person's body, penetrating every corner of the old man's open clothes.

The old man lowered his head, his expression was serene, and he made no sound.

Like corpses rotting in the shadows, rats dead in the streets.

During the lantern ceremony, in the cramped space, the old man was frozen to death silently.

"Meow..."

The black cat stared at him, moved slowly, and just jumped onto the old man.He heard a crisp "click", and after the frost shattered, he saw a scrawny old man protecting a child who was also frozen to death.

He heard a silver bell-like laughter. Under the sky outside the alley, children in padded jackets chased each other, and beautiful fireworks flew into the sky, exploding a beautiful brilliance.

He looks away.

Hui Shuhang held his hand, and the warmth came in bit by bit, dispelling the coldness in body and mind bit by bit.

"Are you all right?" she asked softly.

Su Mingan let go of her hand.

"Hui Shuhang." He said suddenly: "As long as you can remember, have you been in the army?"

"Yes." Hui Shuhang said: "Since I was born, I have shouldered the task of protecting the main army."

"Then do you think—" Su Mingan turned his head sideways: "Is the world we are in now real?"

He knew that this dungeon had been divided into many copies.What he is now is only one of them, the copied one.

Everything he saw, heard, and learned should be fictional, a virtual world built by dungeons, and exists only for him to pass the level.

But now, he may have some hesitation... What is real and what is fiction?
Hui Shuhang would not think that her world is fictional, because in her memory, she has been living here and has all the memories about this world.

He would also think that the life on Zhai Xing would not be fictional, just because of the [impression] in his mind.

He who believed so firmly, looked no different from Hui Shuhang.

He didn't wait for Hui Shuhang's answer, and said softly:
"Hui Shuhang, human beings are really easily deceived creatures."

He felt his hands tightened.

"If you are struggling with this, you don't have to." She said: "We are born with emotions and desires, and five senses. We can perceive everything and judge everything with our own mind...even if what we see is fictional, you But I can firmly believe that you who think this way absolutely exist. You have a [future]. "

...the future again.

Hearing what she said, Su Mingan's ears were almost calloused.

He felt that the conversation with Hui Shuhang was always separated by a thin film, like looking at flowers in the fog, and the words of the two were always not on the same line.

He moved his steps and left from the alley to listen to the laughter outside. He finally made up his mind. After walking for a while, he pointed to a clothing store and said, "Come and see with me."

"Okay." Hui Shuhang followed his wishes and walked over with him.

Walking on the road, when he was about to step into the store, he suddenly felt the energy of Hui Shuhang beside him suddenly fluctuate, and then he heard a particularly sharp voice:

"Puppet army - you are going to die!!!"

"Oh!"

There was another tremor on the ground, and the people who were still lively stopped for a moment.

The surrounding area is clean.

Su Mingan turned around and looked over, and saw a skinny child who was heavily pressed on the ground by Hui Shuhang's energy, and a pool of bright red blood seeped from the ground. The child was tightly holding a broken dagger in his hand.

Judging by the quality of this dagger, it is not certain whether it can kill people.

The child was pressed to the ground and seemed to want to stand up very much. He struggled violently, but he could only get a piece of blood that gradually spread.

Hui Shuhang wanted to kill him directly.But Su Mingan raised his hand and stopped her.

"—You took away my father and my elder brother, leaving me and my mother alone. My mother starched and washed clothes all day long, and the money she got in exchange was not enough to fill my stomach... Later, the puppet army came again, and even my mother was robbed Let's go, are you satisfied now? Uncle Tom, Aunt Jielin... our whole village is deserted!"

The clothes on the child looked shabby, as if he was begging for a living in the city. His expression was crazy and full of fear, as if a head of hot blood rushed suddenly, and he cringed in the face of death.

When he saw that Su Mingan didn't let anyone kill him, he immediately poured out all his words.

"——You levy taxes indiscriminately, you pull people away when there is a war, we have nowhere to go, and we are almost unable to live, but you look so happy..." The child gritted his teeth: "Now you are showing another The appearance of a good person is hypocrisy! What? Everyone is looking at you, so you dare not kill me directly again?"

Su Mingan looked around. The peddlers who were hawking and the passers-by watching the excitement all lowered their heads under his gaze at this time, for fear of causing trouble to the upper body.

Even when the child was crying blood, no one said anything more.

"It's really a disgusting mouse." Hui Shuhang said, the energy riot in his body became more obvious, the child was overwhelmed by the turbulent momentum, his face was flushed red at this time, and he couldn't say the next words.

Su Mingan knew this situation, the magic of the other world looked very beautiful, and could satisfy all people's fantasies about powerful power.But when this situation really exists, the class will be infinitely separated because of such a large power gap.

Classes are solidified, and the superiors can easily execute the lives of the inferiors. Due to the large power gap, the inferiors can't even resist.

If they can't awaken an ability that can make them stand up, I'm afraid they will live in fear for the rest of their lives, submissive.

That's why...Su Ming'an understood how important the experimental results of Qin Wang were.

But His Majesty Sheng Qi was still eager to get rid of him.

Perhaps, that His Majesty also did not want such achievements to spread on the mainland and shake his rule.The results of the experiment will only be firmly held in his hands, so that he can expand his territory, develop new forces, and build a new [Golden Age].

"—[I hope that one day, my achievements will fly to every corner of the continent like the wind.]"

Facing the child's resentful gaze, Su Mingan said this in a very soft tone, his voice was inaudible.

But Hui Shuhang heard it.

She tilted her head, the energy in her hands was slightly relaxed, and her expression was confused.

“[I want everyone to live upright on the wasteland, and I want them not to kneel down, and their blood is no longer spilled into the soil meaninglessly. People who want to leave stay away from the flames of war, and wanderers who want to return have You can go home.]

【——I will go to a grand death, but I want newborn warblers, children who no longer cry, and grateful people to sing at my grave. 】”

After Su Mingan finished speaking slowly, he tapped his palms and smiled:
"...That's it, I understand."

"What?" Hui Shuhang asked, slowly lowering his hand.

The child got up from the ground in a jiffy, and it seemed that he had no intention of rushing up again. He stared at Su Mingan with some surprise eyes, then picked up the dilapidated dagger without looking back. rushed out.

The flow of people began to move slowly, but no one dared to look this way anymore. They lowered their heads, everyone was in danger, as if they were specially avoiding the two of them, making a big circle around Su Mingan.

[Be kind in the state of "Ming", get 1 career point]

"The reputation of the regular army doesn't look very good." Su Mingan knew that the "pseudo army" that the child said was referring to the regular army.

"The people are always stupid, they don't understand the importance of [stability]." Hui Shuhang advised him: "In order to fight against those disorderly revolutionary forces, war is a necessary sacrifice."

"—Then why did the Revolutionary Army come here?"

Su Mingan said in a low voice.

Hui Shuhang blinked, her hands clenched tightly, but she didn't speak.

"The endless cycle." Su Mingan said: "Under this morbid order, there will only be a steady stream of revolutionary troops appearing, and after that, there will also be endless regular troops to conquer them..."

"I let that child go, and hatred will be buried in his heart. When he joins the revolutionary army in the future, he will remember the shame of today, and then return this hatred to the enemy army standing in front of him. "

"—But these people in the main army were obviously conscripted from his village, innocent people."

"He thought he was going to kill the enemy army, he thought he avenged the people who were pulled out to join the army, but no."

"His hatred, after all, was only returned to the group of people he wanted to save the most, including himself."

"Sometimes the sharp blade is not only aimed at the enemy. The main army is not different from the revolutionary army in essence. He is just a blade in the hands of the superior."

"This child will only kill his former self in the future—unless this war has a moment of complete cessation, no matter which side wins."

He said, slowly walked into the clothing store.

Hui Shuhang lowered his eyelids, and then, the warbler on her shoulder suddenly appeared.

"Your Majesty." She watched Su Ming'an gradually melt into the shadows of the store, and then softly said to Yingniao on her shoulder:

"...We, can we really not trust His Highness once? If it is Your Highness..."

There was only silence in response to her.

She suddenly coughed violently, and after putting away the bloody handkerchief, her expression gradually became firm.
