Remember me, find me…… Accompany me
Towards this kind of Song Dao, Shao Qian felt as if his heart had been hit by something, causing a few changes in his usually calm state of mind.
Song Dao is child prodigy, upon seeing Shao Qian staring at his shoulder, the look in his eyes changed. Lifting his right hand up to cover his shoulder, he started to sway, seemingly about to fall down. Shao Qian hastily moved to help him onto the couch, and after sitting Song Dao down, he was went to go find for a medical kit, only for the hem of his s.h.i.+rt to be grabbed by a hand, that even in life or death would never loosen its grip, "Let go."
"Right now I'm injured and don't have any strength to stop you. Go, go far away, don't appear before me ever again." When you say these words, the hand that's grabbing the hem of his s.h.i.+rt, could it not slowly creep up bit by bit? "……" Shao Qian couldn't help placing a hand on his forehead, "I'm finding a medical kit for you."
"Answer me first, even if you can't give a reply to my feelings right now, but you also can't just leave." Song Dao was a perfect example on demonstrating how to take advantage of others' weaknesses. At the beginning, it was merely a hand clutching onto his s.h.i.+rt hem, yet now, there was an entire body sticking onto him, "If you don't answer me, then you might as well just let me bleed to death."
"Then just wait for your death." Shao Qian threw a scornful glance over and was about to push Song Dao away, but just as his hand brushed against the wounded shoulder, his movements stopped. Forget it, after all, he got injured for him, there's no harm in staying behind to look after him for some time.
"Release me, I'm not going." When Shao Qian said this sentence, he felt relieved beyond description. And when he saw Song Dao's pleasantly surprised face, he felt that his decision wasn't wrong. "Doll, rest a.s.sured, I'll definitely be the best partner." Song Dao heard Shao Qian and without permission, immediately changed his form of address back, "Doll, let's do a ghost marriage [1] some other day!" "……" Hehe, as expected, that tender-heartedness and so on was a facade? How could his heart, towards this person whose skin was as thick as a city's wall, feel tender? So, he might as well just wait until Song Dao's wound is fine before leaving. He's really afraid that he might break this b.a.s.t.a.r.d's nose one day. It wasn't merely Song Dao's skin that was thick, his lifespan also endured for very long. Shao Qian never left. No matter what, every time he had the intention to leave, Song Dao would always have a shameless method ready to get him to stay. For example, even when he was already at such an old age, he would look as if he was about to speak, but stops, and then staring at him with teary eyes. Another example was that he would roll around unreasonably, shamelessly acting cute…… When Song Dao died, he was a hundred and twenty one years old. In that generation, there were rarely any others that lived to such an age. He took in an apprentice, and once the said apprentice was able to take care of himself, he kicked him out, the reason being that he was hindering him from being affectionate with Doll. Until the moment he died, he kept calling 'Doll', to the extent that when on his deathbed, whilst he hugged a porcelain doll, his dying wish to his apprentice was that he absolutely must be buried in the same grave as Doll, [2] must place Doll in the middle of his ashes and cover Doll so that he doesn't feel cold. After entrusting these things to him, he looked unwillingly at Shao Qian, saying over and over again, the next life, and the next life after that, he would forever and ever find him, he absolutely let him be anyone else's.
Shao Qian, whose appearance was still that of a young teen, looked seriously at Song Dao, before placing a thread of soul into Song Dao's soul, "Remember me, find me. Wait for me."
"Okay." Once Song Dao said that, his smile faded and his eyes fluttered shut, only his left hand kept unrelentlessly holding onto Shao Qian, not loosening its grasp.
"Uncle……" Song Dao's apprentice at Shao Qian whose expression was calm and spoke hesitantly, "Master, he……"
"He's gone." Shao Qian pried open Song Dao's hand and placed it down gently, "After your Master had been buried for seven months, send Ling Gang down." [3]
All this time, Lin Gang wasn't dead. He was only a few years younger than Song Dao, but Song Dao and Shao Qian had been keeping him alive. Or to put it in other words, the ghosts he toyed with before didn't want him to die. His body was skinny till he obviously only had skin and bones left, but from start to end, he lingered in a steadily worsening condition, or it could also be said that him living wasn't that different from death. After Shao Qian explained these things, he removed himself from this world. Song Dao's apprentice is already more than half of a hundred years old, but when he saw Shao Qian disappearing bit by bit, his tears couldn't help but stream down. Of course, since Master is dead, uncle naturally won't live by himself.
Song Dao's apprentice followed Shao Qian's instruction, and on Song Dao's death anniversary, he sent Ling Gang down. At twenty years old Ling Gang could be described as thriving, but at ninety years old, he was repenting for the sins he committed then. He regretted and presented, to the point where he wanted to suicide, but his Taoism Gang Energy had been crippled by the dagger Song Dao stabbed into his shoulder, the ghosts that he had cornered before revolted, biting, gnawing and chewing on him, and later on, there was inhuman torture……
Ling Gang, whose conscience was slowly disappearing, pulled back his lips into a smile, glazed eyes staring at Song Dao's expressionless apprentice. The smiling lips moved slightly and could somewhat be seen mouthing out the two words, 'Thank you'. Shao Qian returned to the XingHai s.p.a.ce and emptied his brain, his spiritless pair of eyes looking laxly at the twinkling s.p.a.ce in front of him. After a good while, the eyes lacking vigor gradually returned back to normal. He pondered on his relations.h.i.+p with Song Dao, originally, he only felt that Song Dao, in regards to him, was warm, very warm. But, he didn't expect that he would stay in a world for so many decades.
This few decades, his face never got red and he never had a verbal fight. It was like that that he stayed in that world, indifferently pa.s.sing several decades.
This was a brand new experience for Shao Qian, he had never thought that one day, he would actually accompany someone to old age, and even more, he never expected that he would be reluctant to leave, to the extent that when he saw Song Dao leaving, a piercing pain stabbed his heart and his nose would soured.
This kind of feeling was very strange to Shao Qian. He always thought that his feelings had been lost in the countless of tasks he did over and over again, he didn't even remember any times when his heart had been touched by someone. Never had he thought that after shaking off the system's control, he would unexpectedly be drawn towards this person, actually willing to to stay by his side for the warmth, and even placing a thread his soul within him before he left.
But, in his heart, he understood. Song Dao wasn't the same as him, he had no way to be the same as him, crossing into different worlds over and over again. But, he had placed a thread of his soul into Song Dao's soul body to give himself peace of mind. In the end…… they are not the same. Was this the reason why the system wouldn't let him have any contact with feelings? So long as he had lingering affections towards a person in the world he was tasked to, perhaps he would have been reluctant to part with that world, to the extent that he was unwilling to leave? If at that time, the system no longer had those restraints, perhaps…… he really might have fallen in love with a certain someone in a world he was tasked to, even falling in love with the tranquilness of that certain world.
"Beep, Master, reorganise the data?" The system right now could be regarded as at half intellectual power, and upon perceiving its master not approving of the system update for a long time, issued an inquiry.
"Organize……yes." Shao Qian spat out a deep sigh and regulated his mentality, was he really that old? If not, then how could he be so overly sentimental? The previous world, was an extremely precious memory to him, even feeling that it wasn't he that accompanied Song Dao, but rather it was Song Dao that enriched him. If…… If he could encounter this person in the future, he would definitely be willing to accompany this person for his whole life once again.
Approximately a quarter of an hour later, the system informed him that the reorganizing was a success. Shao Qian absent-mindedly made a sound in answer, before allowing the system to randomly select a small world and send it to him. Catching the small ball of light that swept pa.s.s him, he felt that his sight becoming black before he lost consciousness.
When Shao Qian regained conscious, he was being carried by someone as they moved. That someone's actions were somewhat fast, and he felt that a p.r.i.c.king pain on his cheeks being blown by the cold wind. "Awake?" When the person carrying him perceived his stirring, he hurriedly hugged him properly, "Good child, in a while, daddy will put you in a place, let's play hide and seek, yeah? You hide and don't let anyone find you, if you hear any sound, also don't come out. Daddy will come back to find you." "But……" Shao Qian feared that he would drop, so he clutched the front of the man's jacket [4], "It's snowing right now, outside will be very cold." "Don't be scared, daddy will give you clothes and food." The man brought Shao Qian to a tall and big city wall and parted some gra.s.s, revealing a hole that a thin and small child could crawl into, "Good child, quickly crawl inside, daddy will pa.s.s you the food along with the clothes."
Shao Qian felt that the scene before his eyes was somewhat familiar, he hesitated for a moment but at the man's urging, he went into the hole. The city wall was was thick, furthermore, the further he went in, the narrower the hole became, Shao Qian tilted his body sideways before he was able to pa.s.s through the hole with great difficulty. He had just crawled out from the hole when the man used a rod to push a small cloth bag inside, "Good child, run straight ahead, you must not look back. Don't be scared, inside is only some cute animals, they definitely won't harm you." [1] [冥婚] – Posthumous or ghost marriage (in which at least one of the bride and groom is dead) [2] [合葬] – to bury husband and wife together, joint interment [3] …to h.e.l.l. [4] [衣襟] – one or two pieces making up the front of a Chinese jacket [] [--] [Next>>]
