Chapter 121, Girl

While drinking tea, Ren Feng looked around carefully.

This is a very simple house, with only one bed, one table and two chairs, besides that, the girl's drawing board occupies the largest area.

The entire drawing board is erected on the wall, but some messy lines are drawn on it, and it is impossible to see what it wants to draw.

"Are you from outside?" The girl sat opposite Ren Feng, "looking" at him excitedly, as if she was very curious about Ren Feng's arrival, but also hated to be excited.

"Pretty much, I don't know how I got here... Are you the only one in your family?" Ren Feng silently brought the topic back to the girl.

"I'm the only one in my family, but I'm also the village chief and the others, there are many people." The girl said.

"Why are you alone here taking care of them? What about their children?" Ren Feng continued to ask.

"They all go to worship the god flowers, and I really want to, but I'm not qualified." The girl was a little depressed.

"Shenhua?" Ren Feng frowned and murmured in doubt.

"Don't you know Shenhua? Oh yes, you are an outsider."

The girl caught the doubt in Ren Feng's tone and took the initiative to explain to him,
"Shenhua is the greatest existence here. It is Shenhua who gave us the chance to live, so that those of us who should have died can continue to live."

Ren Feng listened silently, and began to define this so-called divine flower in his heart.

"Do you know what a divine flower looks like?"

"...I don't know. There used to be an envoy of Shenhua who came to our village and brought Shenhua to our village. But my eyes can't see since I was a child, so I can see the appearance of Shenhua. But I heard them Said, Shenhua is very beautiful, exuding golden light, illuminating our entire village." The girl's tone gradually became excited.

The golden light... Hearing this, Ren Feng can basically confirm that the so-called god flower in the girl's mouth is the golden flower.

"Hey, do you know what gold looks like? Isn't it a very warm and beautiful color?" The girl gestured with her arms in front of her, with a warm smile on her face.

It seems that I really saw the flower of God.

"You said just now that they all went to worship gold... God flowers, what's going on? Did everyone go?" Ren Feng asked.

"Well... because only if we go to worship the divine flower, the divine flower will give our village the power to survive, so that we can survive." The girl's face was solemn.

In her heart, Shenhua is the supreme existence in mythology.

It is a god that all life should remember.

"It's just because I can't see with my eyes, so I can't go with you, so I can only stay in the village." The girl's voice dropped again.

She also wants to worship the god flower.

"Why do you want to enshrine the divine flower? Don't be afraid...isn't it good?" Ren Feng wanted to say something bad about the golden flower, but he couldn't bear it when he saw the girl.

The golden flower gave the village the power to continue to survive. If that power meant that the people in the village would become skinny, lose their evens, and live like walking dead with only their clothes and bones left, Ren Feng would rather give up such a life.

And there is no doubt that those people outside who are grabbing food in the water basin like dogs became like this because their flesh and blood were sucked dry by the golden flower.

The so-called divine flower is just a glorified term.

But the girl couldn't see it.

She can only hear, hear every story that praises the flower of God.

"Why are you afraid? It is the highest honor in our village to be able to enshrine the divine flower. No matter how many people want to go, they won't be able to go." The girl showed piety on her face.

"why?"

"Because... after worshiping the sacred flowers, we can live forever without dying. We don't have to face the eternal darkness after death. We can see the glimmer of the rising sun every day! I also want to see it with my own eyes. Look at the rays of the sun..."

There was a look of longing on the girl's face. She stretched out her palm in front of her eyes, feeling the light that was not there at all.

"I've never seen the light of the sun, now, can you tell me what the sun looks like?"

She turned her head to face Ren Feng, with hope on her face.

Ren Feng was silent for a while, looking at the girl's expectant look, he couldn't bear to say to him, 'Your village has long been decayed', 'You can't see the sun here at all' and so on.

He picked up a piece of paper next to him in his hand, and with a slight movement of his mind, the paper caught fire out of thin air.

The flame flickered in front of the girl.

"That's probably how the sun feels."

"It's so warm..."

The warmth in front of her enveloped the girl's face. She felt so happy and couldn't help but want to reach out to touch it, but she was burned by the flames. She let out a painful "ah" and quickly took her hand back.

Then the flame goes out.

"How does it feel?" Ren Feng asked.

"It's so warm...but it's also painful, and it's fleeting..."

Ren Feng could clearly see a trace of disappointment flashing across the girl's face.

"Yes, the sun is so warm and at the same time, you can't get too close, or you will get burned. At the same time, the sun will not stay in front of you forever, it will disappear, sometimes it is like a person, you get up , it also gets up; you rest, it also rests.

But not every night is followed by light. "Ren Feng said softly.

The girl listened earnestly, a sense of enlightenment suddenly appeared on her face,

"I understand... If the sun really appears in front of me one day, I will definitely protect it, even if I get burned, it doesn't matter!"

Hearing the girl's words, Ren Feng felt a little funny.

But he thought about it, but in the end he didn't laugh, but looked at the girl and said softly:
"Yes, so, if one day a fleeting light appears in your life, be sure to hold on to it."

Ren Feng shivered slightly.

He suddenly realized that he was not talking about the girl, but himself.

He missed the fleeting light in his life and failed to keep Li Yang.

In fact, Ren Feng understood that it was not because of Li Yang that he couldn't get out of the hatred, but because he was afraid that if he didn't do enough, something like that would happen again - watching someone he valued die with his own eyes.

He can't take it!
"Yeah." The girl nodded heavily.

Maybe it's because she thinks the girl is too pitiful, or maybe it's because of other reasons, Ren Feng doesn't want to expose the beautiful world in her heart that is full of expectations and can see the sun one day.

Although she may never see the sun in her whole life, she can only live in this decayed and dark world.But as long as there is light in your heart, even if others can only see the smoke, you must continue to burn.
