Chapter 707: Chapter 707 A future free from slavery
In the dark and boundless wilderness, where there was no light or sound, suddenly, there were sounds of hurried footsteps, mixing with heavy breathing.
Based on the noise, it should be a girl; but her footsteps were very heavy, as if her legs were being filled with lead.
The girl seed to have the ability to discern where the water ditch was, where the dead tree was, and where the obstacle was in the dark, so even when running, she still didn’t’ hit anything in the dark.
The person behind her was still dripping blood, just a lot less than before; but he was still lying motionless, and his body was as cold as a dead body.
Soon, the dark and endless wilderness beca quiet again, and the girl’s heavy footsteps gradually disappeared into the darkness further away.
...
Not knowing how long the girl had been running, in the darkness, two more weak, exhausted voices appear intermittently.
“Old, Youling, ask, ask her, to put , down, I, I can’t, run away like this!”
“It’s useless for you to go back, that’s a Yuan Tian stage four master.”
“Xiao, Hai, they... I can’t, run away alone, put down.”
“You are already like this, you can’t do anything.”
“I, can’t... Old Youling, I can’t, let, let Xiaohai, and other people fight for , while, I am, running away, I will never, never, do it. I’d rather, die with them, be with them!”
“If you don’t go back, they might still be alive. If you go back, they will never survive.”
“You, you don’t understand, that, grey, shadow man, will, will definitely, kill everyone.”
“Then you can’t go back even more, if you go back, their sacrifice will be worthless!”
“Old, old Youling, even if, I, I run away, where can I escape to? I can’t, defeat, a Yuan Tian, stage four, master. I will, die sooner, or later. I have been running, away for my whole life. I am tired. I want to, die with them.”
“Have you forgotten what Yu Xiaohai said to us? He said, why should he believe in a group of strangers and not believe in you? He said that he believes that you can give them a future. If you really want to do sothing for them, then survive this, and kill those bastards later. Avenge them, and give them a future. ”
“There is, no, the future, I don’t know, where the future is.
...
“Old, old Youling, let down.”
...
“Old, Youling, you Barstad, ask, her to put, down!”
...
Finally, the voice almost trembled and begged, “Old, old, Youling, that man, is too, too strong, I know it clearly that, I can’t defeat it... Please, I am, begging you... I don’t want to, die alone... I am scared, to, be alone. . Old Youling, let go, this is, my only chance...”
Cold tears flowed down his cheeks and fell on the girl’s tender neck. In the cold wind, she shivered and was accidentally tripped over. Then two people and a wisp of smoke plunged into one slimy slly water “ditch”.
Exhausted and heavily injured, the hard fall made them pass out instantly. But before passing out, the sad voice appeared again,
“I don’t want to... die like a stray dog...”
...
Not knowing how long it had passed, Chu Yunsheng quietly opened his eyes, looking at the sky for a long ti without moving.
After a long ti, he wanted to move, so he used the broken arm to help him crawl on the slimy ground and climbed out of the “ditch”. Propped up by the sword, he sat up cross-legged and then stabbed the sword next to him. He then continued to sit there quietly without moving.
The cold winter wind blew across the ground, whistling past his cheek like a knife, solidifying the blood on it, and drying the tears in the corner of his eye.
He remained motionless.
After a long ti, there was a rustling sound from behind him, and a wisp of smoke floated out.
“You’re awake?”
Chu Yunsheng did not look back, still quietly staring at the sky.
“I will wake up Aphro and ask her to carry you away from here as soon as possible.”
Old Youling didn’t know what to say, so it simply said this.
“Let her sleep for a while.” Chu Yunsheng still didn’t look back, quietly looking at the sky.
“Boss...” Old Youling realized that Chu Yunsheng had already cald down. However, it still didn’t know what to say to Chu Yunsheng, “Boss, don’t think too much...”
Chu Yunsheng didn’t respond to it, but the sound of the wintry wind whistling across the sharp sword began to make the sword humming more and more clearly in the air.
“Old Youling...” Chu Yunsheng suddenly spoke after a long ti of silence, “Thank you, you saved my life.”
“Boss...” Old Youling still didn’t know what to say. It could feel that besides the quietness of Chu Yunsheng’s surroundings, there was also a faint murderous intent, and like the sword humming sound, it beca more and more clear.
“Every ti I shed tears, my heart would beco colder.” Chu Yunsheng said quietly: “If my tears dried up one day, I think I would probably beco a heartless person like this cold sword.”
“Boss?” Old Youling looked up with a complicated expression.
“So...” Chu Yunsheng interrupted it, quietly looking at the sharp sword, “While I have not beco a completely heartless person, and while I can still talk, do you want to hear my stories?....”
“I...”
...
Chu Yunsheng said quietly, without sorrow or excitent, as if he was talking about soone who had nothing to do with him. He calmly told Youling how he got the ancient book, how he practiced his sword skill, how he killed red-shelled insects, How... until he saw the sixth sequence.
“Xiaohai told a few days ago that I should not keep everything in my mind, otherwise, sooner or later I would go crazy. He wanted to help , so he wanted to hear what was in my mind, but I didn’t tell him. When he was still alive, I didn’t tell him, but when in this world, I still didn’t tell him.
I don’t bla anyone, I had two chances, but I didn’t cherish them...
Old Youling, today I want to say it. I want to cherish it, because in the next life, no matter how regretful I am, we will never be able to see each other again. ”
Chu Yunsheng quietly said. Old Youling also felt very sad, so it didn’t know what to say even more.
The two remained silent, looking at the sword and the sky, until the blue-haired girl woke up.
...
“Where are we going?” Chu Yunsheng knew that there must be a reason why Old Youling insisted on bringing the blue-haired girl with them.
“Egypt.” Old Youling said calmly, “Find the Great Pyramid, and then leave here.”
“Where to?” Chu Yunsheng still said quietly.
“Her planet.” Old Youling pointed to the blue-haired girl, and said, “I looked through all the historical and archaeological archives, and based on Aphro’s description and drawings, the Egyptian Great Pyramid is the only possible well-preserved descending tunnel that we can find at the mont.”
Not knowing why, after Chu Yunsheng told Old Youling everything, its attitude toward Chu Yunsheng changed a lot. Whenever it spoke to Chu Yunsheng, it no longer had a sycophant tone. However, Chu Yunsheng also didn’t keep it in mind.
“Alright, it’s the safest for you two to go there.” Chu Yunsheng looked at the sword and listened to the humming sound the sword made and said calmly.
“What about you?” Old Youling understood the hidden aning in Chu Yunsheng’s words.
Chu Yunsheng’s hair fluttered in the cold wind, and said quietly: “Whether it is a node or a pseudo monolith, it was all caused by , so I will give them a future.”
“Do you want to choose that path?” Old Youling was silent for a mont and sighed. It was referring to the path ntioned by the sixth sequence.
“It is not my choice. It was chosen by others.” Chu Yunsheng said against the cold wind.
“That grey shadow is very strong. He has the power above the Cardinal Source Gate.” Old Youling thought for a while and said seriously.
“So, I will go to Egypt with you first, and then I will find a way to kill it.” Chu Yunsheng said, looking at the sword.
“Since you have made a decision, I won’t try to change your mind anymore.” Old Youling paused for a second and said, “But there is one thing that I haven’t had ti to tell you.”
“You can tell now.” Chu Yunsheng said lightly.
“No matter what you do, I hope you can live, because when I looked through historical data, I found a secret... It still needs to be verified, but...” Old Youling paused again and continued:
“Humans are a very miserable race. You humans may have actually been enslaved for generations. There was a spaceship that crashed on Aphro’s planet according to Aphro’s description. She didn’t know what it was, but I know that it was a slave ship that was probably loaded with humans. In fact, another purpose of going to Egypt this ti is to find evidence.
So if you really want to give them a future, you should not give it to the people in this fake world, but to the real people that are still alive and those who are going to be born. You should give it to their descendants, and give them a future that is free of slavery.”
