The head of the Yuan family does not want to be reincarnated in the Chanyuan

Chapter 209

Sometimes in people's perception, the passing of a season does not rely on the time marked on the calendar, but suddenly realizes that time has never stopped at a certain moment on a certain day.

Maybe I saw passers-by put on coats while waiting for the bus on the street, maybe I saw that there was no "summer limited" on the menu in the beverage store, or I suddenly found that the annoying cicadas had disappeared.

But sometimes summer seems to have never passed, and the persistence in my heart stretches incomparably long, until it becomes an airtight cage, which firmly surrounds and seals everything, so that no matter how hard you struggle, you will never forget. Can no longer escape.

"...What is this...?" Xia Youjie pressed his forehead with his hand, the huge cage placed in the room was firmly locked by an iron lock, and there were two ragged clothes tightly hugging each other. The wounded little girl kept tears streaming out of her terrified eyes.

"What what? These two people are the cause of a series of events."

"No. The cause of the incident has been eliminated by me." Xia Youjie clenched his fingers stiffly, and suddenly he didn't want to continue listening.

"What are you talking about? The two of them obviously did it! They also attacked the people in the village with unimaginable strength, and my grandson was almost killed by them!" The harsh voice.

"No! That's because he first..." One of the little girls retorted loudly with wide eyes, but no one wanted to believe her, listen to her, or say...

"Shut up! Monster! If I knew it, I should have killed you when you were born! Go to hell with your parents who died early!"

...who would listen to monsters?

Xia Youjie stretched out his fingers, and a frightening black curse emerged from his fingertips. A hoarse voice echoed in the dim room: "No...don't be afraid..."

Looking at the two little girls like this, a gleam of light gradually appeared in the pupils soaked in pain and despair, and a gentle smile gradually appeared on Xia Youjie's face, hidden behind his smile, but Something was gradually shattering, falling to the ground and turning into a pool of fly ash, which was blown away by the wind and disappeared without a trace.

"Everyone, go outside first."

"Ah—why—" "Help—please spare me—"

Shuo, I think I know what you wanted to say at that time.

The screams sounded from behind Xia Youjie, and he looked up at the cracks in the blue sky, as if the dried paint was repeatedly broken, and the bright and beautiful surface gradually faded away, mottled. The color blocks fell off, revealing the dark and dull interior that was covered.

[If you find anything that you can't solve in the future, just talk to me. ]

"What are you talking about? Shuo." Xia Youjie slowly grasped the ring with his hand, holding it so tightly that his knuckles turned blue and white, as if only in this way could he give himself the strength to support himself, "Say... I listen .”

[It’s useless to say these now, Jie is like this, all the way to the dark, nine cows can’t be pulled back. ] Fu Heishuo stood beside Xia Youjie, watched the blood flow on the ground, and sighed helplessly.

"If it's Shuo..." Xia Youjie smiled in his purple eyes, but there was a gleam of crystal light hidden in the deepest part, "...Maybe I will listen."

[Hasn't Jay already made a decision? ] Fu Heishuo stretched out his hand towards Xia Youjie, and blinked at him, [Besides, didn't you say that?No matter what happens, I'm on Jay's side. ]

"...Suddenly I want to go back on my word." Xia Youjie laughed lightly, but his voice was slightly hoarse, "It's better for Shuo to stay in the high school, Wu will go crazy."

[Want to push me away?That's not something Jay would say... Come on, who dropped you? ] Fu Heishuo teased Xia Youjie, then restrained all his smiles bit by bit, and walked slowly in front of Xia Youjie, his black eyes were still as clear and translucent as he remembered, like a mirror It also clearly showed his embarrassed figure, [The next thing will be bad, Jay. ]

"I know."

[From then on, I am on the opposite side of the people I knew in the past. ]

"I know."

[Then...] Fu Heishuo stretched out his arms and hugged Xia Youjie. Xia Youjie stood there in a daze, unable to speak. The world in front of him was blurred for a moment. I gave him a hug, but it was empty as if I was hugging a ball of air, [Thanks for your hard work, Jie. ]

"…Um."

[And... I'm really sorry... Really. ]

"...I know." Xia Youjie wanted to speak with a smile, but his voice was choked up, and every word he uttered was distorted and out of tune. With so much strength, the three syllables just dug out from the bloody wound repeated again and again: "I know."

Fu Heishuo's figure gradually became transparent, and then scattered down one by one like a broken mirror. The black curse spirit appeared beside Xia Youjie, and finally took it back into his hand.

Xia Youjie opened his eyes, his purple eyes stared at the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood in front of him, but there was a calm and gentle smile on his face.The shoes stepped on the pool of blood, and the spattered blood wetted his trousers. He crossed the broken wall, stepped over one corpse after another, and walked towards the room where the two little girls were locked up.

He stretched out his hand to open the door of the room, and the golden sunlight came in. In the eyes of the two little girls who had always been regarded as monsters, they seemed to be the gods who saved them: "Don't be afraid, no one will bully you anymore."

"Woo...woo..."

"Do you want to cry? You don't have to bear it anymore." The lock fell to the ground with a heavy muffled sound, Xia Youjie opened the door of the cage, stepped forward and embraced them in his arms, "From now on, we are family Now...you can cry if you want to."

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Shuo hugged them with his hands in front of him.

Shuo, there is a sentence I have never had time to say.Xia Youjie stared at him in the daydream, slowly pinched his thoughts into a wind chime and hung it on the porch, jingling when the wind blows.

I am sorry.

and also…

I've been... missing you so much.

**********

"…what?"

"It's the same no matter how many times you ask me to repeat it, Wu." Ye Mo Zhengdao covered his forehead with his hand, he didn't understand what was going on, Fu Heishuo, Hui Yuanxiong, Xia Youjie... what will happen next who?Whose turn will it be?Are they cursed?How could there be such an outrageous thing...

"How is that possible!" Gojo Satoru opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief, "It was clear that he was fine before he left..."

"Enlightenment." Ye Mozheng was exhausted physically and mentally, "This is a fact. Jie killed all the people in the village, and his whereabouts are unknown."

But... why?

Gojo Satoru lowered his eyes, and his white eyelashes blocked the howling wind in his eyes. It was several days ago when he met Jie last time. At that time, he said that when this time passed, they would rest together for a while. Then secretly went to see Riko Tennouchi.He still clearly remembers that Xia Youjie slowly raised his smile and said hello, and then... then he was entangled in seemingly endless tasks. Until today, when he stepped into the high school, he learned from Yemo Zhengdao that What Xia Youjie did...

Why... why did it suddenly become like this?

"...Am I the last one to know? Teacher Night Moth." Gojo Satoru only felt his throat dry, and he opened his mouth a few times before making a sound with difficulty.

"…Yes."

Gojo Satoru looked at Noctua Masamichi and rubbed his forehead with his hands, while covering the expression on his face, raging anger rose from his heart, he turned around abruptly, the shouts of Noctua Masamichi, the scenery and buildings in front of him were all gone. Left behind by him.

I'm going to ask Jay for clarification.

Wujo Satoru thought this way, he didn't believe that Xia Youjie would do such a thing, there must be some reason for it, absolutely...impossible!

But no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any trace of Xia Youjie. He didn't know if Xia Youjie was actively avoiding him or what. Every time he seemed to be about to grab Xia Youjie's tail, everything happened in the next second. They all told him that he was too late.

It wasn't until a phone call from his family that he learned of Xia Youjie's location and his absurd ideal of killing all non-artists. He rushed there and saw Xia Youjie standing with his head down. On the street, the expression on his face suddenly reminded him of the calm mask that Shuo wore on his face when he left them forever.

"...Explain to me, Jie." Gojo Goku looked at him straight, Xia Youjie's expression could not be hidden in his eyes, "You found Nitro on purpose, right? What do you want to do? "

"Let me think about it..." Xia Youjie took a deep breath and breathed out, turning through thousands of reasons in his mind, and finally shook his head and said softly, "Maybe he wants to say goodbye."

"What kind of farewell?" Wutiao Wu followed the right way from the night moth, entered the nitrate from home, and got the same conclusion over and over again from one person after another, but he didn't want to believe it, he just wanted to hear it from Xia Youjie himself tell him why.

"The kind of farewell that may not be seen for a long, long time."

"It's really like what Glass said, you want to create a world with only magicians?" Gojo Satoru just found it ridiculous, "Didn't you once object to meaningless killing?"

Gojo Satoru only felt that he and Xia Youjie were standing at the two ends of the railroad track, and he could catch each other as long as he took a step, but at this moment a train was coming, so he could only stop where he was and looked at a door. A car window flashed in front of his eyes, dazzled him, and then...

"Of course there is meaning, and it's righteous." Xia Youjie said calmly.

"There's a fart!" Wujo Goto was anxious, "Kill all non-magicians? Create a world with only magicians? How can this be possible?! Knowing that this is impractical, knowing that it is impossible, But there is still a way to go to the dark... Tell me what is the meaning of what you said?!"

"...It's really [arrogant], Wu, if it's you, you can do it." Xia Youjie didn't show any wavering expression, just said in this way, Wu can do it because he is [the strongest ],and I?I've... lost track of him.

...If I were as strong as Satoru, wouldn't this seemingly absurd and unattainable dream not be so far away?

Shuo, are you looking at me?so be it.

"What do you want to say?"

"I have determined my true heart, and the next step is to do my best to realize it." So, goodbye, Wu.

…Then when the train disappeared at the end of the road, the opposite side was empty, only the withered yellow leaves swirled and fell to the ground under the blowing wind.

Gojo Satoru opened his eyes wide. He raised his hand and made an attack gesture towards Xia Youjie.

"Kill if you want, your choice is meaningful." Xia Youjie turned around, stepped across the boundary between shadow and sunlight, and walked towards the other side, resolutely and without looking back.

"Wu, in fact..." Xia Youjie turned his back to Wujo Wu, the bustling crowd seemed to be nothing in his eyes, and in that endless fuzzy future, he seemed to see his end clearly, "...still want to Goodbye rainbow."

He Shuo, with you, with everyone... It's a pity...

Gojo Satoru slowly bent his fingers, the fingertips retracted into the palm of his hand, and tightly clenched into fists.The sound of ocean waves appeared in his ears, and his feet sank into the soft sand. He looked over from a distance and saw three rows of footprints from far to near, messy and interlaced, as if laughing at the seaside, but just In the blink of an eye, a wave came over, and the outermost row of footprints gradually became lighter, and finally disappeared without a trace.

He stared blankly at the remaining two lines of footprints continuing to move forward, but slowly some people began to stop and go, sometimes speeding up to catch up, sometimes falling behind far behind, the original parallel track slightly deviated from the track , in the end... completely stopped in place, and then resolutely moved in another direction.

So... is that so?

Gojo Satoru lowered his head, and finally realized one thing, that is, nothing happened suddenly, nothing was caught off guard, everything was flowing forward peacefully and naturally, and then as time went by, it gradually drifted away irreversibly, and ran in the opposite direction. .

Maybe Jie was right, Gojo Satoru thought, maybe he was indeed [arrogant].He thought that after Shuo left, he could lower his head and focus on the people around him, but he noticed Jie's thinness, but he was easily fooled by Jie's "Bitter Summer"... In the end... Isn't this still doing nothing?

"Ha." Wujo Satoru squatted down slowly, "You are always like this, Sakuya, and you too, don't say anything, as if I'm the only one who is a fool..." So cruel, yet so firm... This is what he is The second time I feel powerless, is he the strongest?Yes.But even he couldn't do everything, he couldn't save Shuo, he couldn't pull Jie back, all he could do was hold the hands that were stretched out to him.

If Shuo was still there... would the result be different?

The last cicada chirped, and the summer passed forever...

But in some people's hearts, there is no past.
