Did the worm king lose his horse today [Interstellar]

an hour ago.

The huge parasitic king worm cruised above the star capital, casting a thick shadow downward.Numerous swarms of parasites descended mightily from it, these insects the size of two fists scattered in the city like a black storm, giving Gu Jiurong a comprehensive vision.

He and Gu Yue split up when they first landed on the starship. Even so, Gu Yue was always surrounded by insects, ensuring his safety at all times.They kept looking for Zuo Ziming's location. After all, that old guy was unpredictable and suspicious. Most of the time, only Zuo Qing knew where he was.

There were very few people who did not take refuge in Xingdu, and the streets were empty, leaving only the dirty and messy footprints left by the people when they fled. The mechanical troops defending on the ground were also crushed by huge thunder beasts, and the ground was shattered. Wreckage and black smoke.

But here is not everything that Gu Jiurong is familiar with. All the stars he knows have been sunk in the void forever along with the broken ark.

It's a pity that he didn't see the fall of the ark with his own eyes. After all, the original story between him and Gu Yue started there.

At this time in this city, apart from the alliance fighters, the few people who did not seek refuge were all "black cloaks".In the previous operations, due to various reasons, they did not choose to go to the space station with Gu Yue in the end, and went to another ark to continue their lives.

They were all waiting to see Gu Yue, and wanted a definite response in person.

After all, they have fought side by side for so many years, and like Ye Zhengqing, they do not understand or believe in Gu Yue's choice. No matter how you think about it, it is like Shao Yufeng's behavior of defecting from human beings back then.

Although the swarm had no intention of attacking them, almost no one wanted to see Gu Jiurong, and he didn't really care.The Zerg ran errands instead of him, so he found a random place to sit on the top of a tall building, overlooking this unfamiliar star capital, and the wind was very cool.

Until the vision of the swarm, he saw a person waving desperately.

The man didn't seem to be afraid of the swarm, but tried to attract their attention.

It turned out to be Xu Huahua.

When Gu Jiurong sent the injured Xu Huahua out of the ark, he never saw him again. He only heard from Gu Yue a few times that he lived a good life here.Now that they meet again suddenly, there is an illusion that not much time has passed.Xu Huahua waved her hands desperately, she was the only one in the empty star city with "Gu Jiurong, I want to see you" written all over her face.

Anyway, there is no delay in going there.Gu Jiurong thought about it, so he took a tunnel worm and flew towards Xu Huahua at high speed.

Xu Huahua didn't expect him to come so soon, and her expression was a bit tangled when they first met, either disgusted or disgusted, or an expression that she hadn't figured out how to face him.Before Gu Jiurong could speak, he saw Xu Huahua sneezed violently.

Gu Jiurong: "..."

This one sneeze didn't finish, Xu Huahua sneezed more than a dozen times in a row, couldn't stop at all, and couldn't say a word.

Gu Jiurong: "...you...drink more hot water?"

"No, sneeze! It's useless!" Xu Huahua's voice became hoarse, "I've had a cold for several days. Before, Lao Li even brought me medicine, which didn't help at all except for letting me sleep all day. Sneezes, sneezes!"

This is very similar to the time when Gu Jiurong made him catch a cold. Gu Jiurong jumped off the tunnel worm's back: "You should be able to see Gu Yue later."

"What is he doing now, Ah Xie?" Xu Huahua was a little confused, "Are you really going to capture this ark?"

Gu Jiurong: "...Why did we capture the Ark?"

"Isn't it something like overthrowing the alliance?" Xu Huahua was even more confused, "I think everyone said so. Otherwise, what are you spending so much time to come back?"

Gu Jiurong realized the key to this conversation. Xu Huahua didn't know about Gu Yue's past. After all, Gu Yue never took the initiative to bring up this matter.In the eyes of most people, Gu Yue is the villain who wants to capture the Ark and monopolize the Ark, and even borrows the power of other races.

Thinking of it this way, he became even more upset. He didn't know what kind of title Gu Yue would get, and how those people would scribble about his experience and make up reasons.So Gu Jiurong said: "He just came back to settle some... private matters."

"Personal matter?" Xu Huahua was still puzzled, but she didn't ask further.He just hesitated for a while, and then said very carefully: "Although I don't like this alliance either, but...you come back like this, Achoe, did you cause more casualties? You know, like a big war or something." things." He thought for a long time and didn't know how to organize his words, "Of course I believe that you and Mr. Gu will not act on impulse, but it's just... but it's just..."

His words did not go on.Gu Jiurong already understood what he meant, and he really didn't want Gu Yue to leave such an impression in other people's minds: "We were very restrained on the battlefield and didn't hurt many people. Most of the spaceships were only damaged by their power sources. "

"Oh. That's good." Xu Huahua obviously didn't believe him, but he still didn't continue talking.

Gu Jiurong wanted to continue to argue, but his words were swallowed back.

What else can he say?Pulling Xu Huahua by the collar, he told him, how did Gu Yue spend several months researching the method in order to quickly destroy the power source?Or tell Xu Huahua that it was almost reversed several times on the battlefield, and the battle was fought so hard because Gu Yue insisted on never completely destroying an alliance ship?

Xu Huahua was already someone who was willing to listen to his speech and explanation, even so, he couldn't listen to this kind of excuse.

With the alliance's betrayal of Gu Yue and the atmosphere of this duel, no one has reason to believe in Gu Yue.Situations and lives are different, so how can we really put ourselves in the shoes of others and think differently.

When Gu Yue was planning his tactics, he told him again and again: "This is a battlefield, no matter how careful I am... it is impossible to avoid casualties. Moreover, after this war, the Alliance Fleet will definitely have to rest for a few years, It takes a lot of resources to fully restore combat power, and I have no way of predicting the impact it will cause. Since the 'Black Cloak' started its activities many years ago, I have indirectly hurt many people, and it is impossible that there are no innocent people in my hands. the blood of the

At that time, Gu Jiurong didn't pay much attention to this passage, his nature made him too insensitive to "casualties", so he didn't understand Gu Yue's guilt.

He only now knew what that meant.

Even a hero, as long as there is a stain, he will fall from the altar, covered in mud and be scolded by others, let alone a sure-fire "traitor" like Gu Yue.Just like before this war, no one was grateful for what Gu Yue had done for Ark. They didn't know the truth, so they made an assertion after grabbing one of his choices, as if they had seen through Gu Yue's entire life.

No matter how hard you try, even if one day what he has done is finally known to everyone, the words that wait may be "He can obviously do better, otherwise so many people would not have sacrificed", or "This incident If he doesn't do it, maybe the ending will be better."

Those implicated are of course innocent, but heroes should not be so harshly criticized——

It wasn't until this moment that Gu Jiurong really realized what kind of burden Gu Yue had to bear when he chose to travel the universe with him as a member of the Gu family who always valued reputation.

Gu Yue must have said the phrase "I'm tired and don't want to be a hero anymore" because of this fact.

"... That's it," Xu Huahua looked at Gu Jiurong's expression, and hurriedly added, "I agree with both hands and feet for the 'Black Cloak' activity! After all, we want to save the entire Ark! Ah, as for now..." He smiled slightly Frowning, still a bit tangled, "As long as it's something you have decided on, I don't understand it, so I can't make any comments."

The soldiers who fought to defend the ark did nothing wrong. Zuo Qing and Gu Xingyan really did their best in the dozens of hours of uninterrupted command, and the use of star destroying weapons was also reasonable.

Since ancient times, it is people like them who have passed on the fire of human civilization time and time again.As long as Gu Yue gives up revenge, everything will develop in a stable direction, and he doesn't have to bear more notoriety now.

But what can be done?Just because of this, does Gu Yue deserve to be unable to avenge his life?Should he swallow his anger and disappear into the universe forever?Why should he be demanded by this standard, he is just a person who has joys and sorrows.

There is no perfect solution to this kind of thing from the beginning.

Zerg has never had to wrestle with these complex issues.For a moment, Gu Jiurong really didn't know how to tell Xu Huahua.He thought for a long time: "He has something he wants to accomplish, and I also think he has a reason to do it."

After a long time, Xu Huahua took a deep breath, stretched her brows, and finally smiled: "That's good. Mr. Gu is indeed a good person. And I always wanted to say, thank you for sending me away from that ark."

After hearing these words, Gu Jiurong finally calmed down a little, as if Gu Yue's efforts were finally recognized a little bit.He almost admired Gu Yue's calmness, he was able to accept such an imperfect story, and it ended with regret.

... So their stories from now on must be gorgeous and gorgeous, so as to make up for all the glory that Gu Yue deserved.

There were a few drops of coolness on his face, Gu Jiurong looked up, and the sky began to rain gloomyly.

Xu Huahua was the only old friend Gu Jiurong met who was willing to have a good conversation with him, so he briefly told Xu Huahua about his experience during this period, causing Xu Huahua to keep staring: "The endless cycle One day... So the Fallen Empire declined because of this?... What, what kind of special spiritual substance can really go back to the past? Life on earth is really like this, and it is no different from what is said in the expansion pack... You are still the same as Zuo Ziming drank?"

"Yes." Gu Jiurong replied, "Unfortunately, there is really no way to kill him."

"If," Xu Huahua frowned, "most of the Fallen Empire has disappeared, why does the Ark still exist?"

"Gu Yue's guess is that before the matter of the star gate corroded the ark, the alliance got them drifting near the earth." Gu Jiurong replied, "This is the most logical guess, because the fallen fleet has indeed disappeared. part. But who knows the truth, it was all so long ago."

He also talked about the landscapes and creatures he saw on different planets in the past few months.

"Really, it's unbelievable." Xu Huahua finally said with emotion, "Your months have been an experience that I can't imagine in my life. Just because Zuo Ziming hangs out in bars for a few days and nights has already shocked me too much. I'm getting older... I'd better stay here safely, a little calm is suitable for people like me." He smiled, "It seems that you and Mr. Gu really have the same aspirations, if I can meet such a person one day It’s fine to be alone, but it’s a pity that this kind of thing is really hard to come by.”

A few minutes later, Gu Jiurong's terminal received a message. It was Gu Yue who told him that he had found Zuo Ziming.

Gu Jiurong bid farewell to Xu Huahua immediately, and rushed towards the place Gu Yue said amid another series of sneezes.

The rain on the road was getting heavier and heavier, and now the sky was getting late and the twilight was heavy, just like the rainy night when Gu Yue played his solo again and again.

It was also the night when everything should end.

……

"Long time no see." Gu Yue stood at the entrance of the room like this, wearing a black suit with white flowers.

Zuo Ziming sighed: "You are still exactly the same as before... The years really haven't spared me. I tried so hard, but I couldn't find eternal life. I really envy you that you can still drink away your sorrows."

Gu Yue smiled: "You don't want to die so peacefully?"

"In life, people will always pursue greater things." Zuo Ziming coughed a few times, "I have stood at the peak of human beings for too many years, and of course I want to see the world outside. Time is my biggest obstacle. "

"I thought I didn't need to remind you," Gu Yue said lightly, his tone was not even sarcasm, but only sympathetic, "You just want to re-establish a puppet alliance in Ark that fully obeys orders, and you are far from exploring the world. Far. It seems that you don't have much self-knowledge when you are old."

"Gu Yue!" Zuo Qing's eyes widened angrily, she stood up abruptly and was about to draw her gun, but Zuo Ziming stopped her with a wave of her hand.

Zuo Ziming raised his eyes and looked at him: "Aren't you satisfied with our confrontation now? It's good for both of us, you just have to swing a knife or shoot—if you're not afraid of the consequences."

"You haven't even changed your routine." Gu Yue said, "I know what you want me to be afraid of. If I kill you here, you don't have to die of old age so ordinary." Killed by a human traitor in a defensive war Die' sounds like a tragic enough ending for a hero."

Zuo Ziming laughed a few times: "You are still so smart after all. I am also a great hero at the curtain call, and you will always be nailed to the pillar of shame. Are you still satisfied with this revenge?!"

Gu Yue actually laughed too, without any anger: "Of course." He took a few steps forward, and was about to get close to Zuo Ziming——

At this moment, Zuo Qing suddenly jumped up and rushed towards him, the short knife in her hand was shining with silver light!
