Quadruple split.

Chapter 914

[Push me to the cusp to protect me? 】

[An exception allows me, a low-level clergyman, to participate? 】

[Academy City... Uh, I know this. 】

【A grand event in Academy City... well, I know about that too】.

[Sacred Religion Union is naturally qualified to participate, but in terms of candidates...]

[Even if Yuchen is a divinely favored person and a saint of the Dawn Sect, he should not be qualified to represent the joint attendance, right? 】

【Not to mention my words, even if you doubled your contribution to Su Mier, it would still be far inferior to Yu Chen. 】

Mo Tan narrowed his eyes slightly, and fell into thinking based on some information he had collected from other sources, and in the process subconsciously ignored a fact that was very important to him, that is...

"You can go with His Royal Highness Wang Yu, this should be good news for you, Pastor Hei Fan?"

The mosaic on Tom's face distorted slightly, and based on the tone analysis, it should be a shallow smile, and he said briskly: "We all feel that as a couple, you spend too little time with His Royal Highness Wangyu, and The responsibility for this mainly lies with the church. Although it was not intentional, it is an indisputable fact that you have been separated for a long time. Therefore, His Royal Highness Xia Lian and I agreed that this is a good opportunity, and His Holiness the Pope also expressed his support. , I won such a spot for you."

Mo Tan, who was forced to focus on 'going out with Yuchen', sighed imperceptibly, although his heart beat uncontrollably faster, his breathing became a little faster, and his eyes flickered with difficulty. Self-controlled hope, but all this can hardly conceal the indescribable gloom on him.

As soon as he thinks that he will soon meet the girl who makes him... to be precise, one-third of his dreams, can hear her voice, see her face, Mo Tan can't control his chest at all The rapidly expanding joy in the heart.

Correspondingly, this joy, this mood, will also inflict countless times of damage on him.

To put it more bluntly, it was a series of bloody wounds that he had dug out on his heart with his own hands.

So painful that I could hardly breathe.

"Sorry, I seem to have said something wrong."

As a person who is too keen and good at capturing the mood of others, although he is ugly but not blind, Tom will naturally not fail to see the changes in Motan. Although he does not know the specific reasons, as a person who has lived nearly For a hundred years, although he has never been in a relationship but has seen countless pairs of pigs running, the experienced senior man, this ascetic whose skin is too glaring but whose soul is still interesting, immediately discovered the problem and pondered briefly Then he tentatively asked: "Pastor Heifan, if you don't mind, can you..."

"No."

Mo Tan's answer was calm and cold, so blunt that even he himself was taken aback.

For Hei Fan, whose personality has always been "absolutely neutral" in the game of Innocence, this is the first time he has spoken to someone in this tone since he put on this vest.

Still a person who seems to care about himself no matter how he looks at it.

[I'm sorry, Senior Tom, I didn't mean to offend, it's just...]

This sentence circled in Mo Tan's mind, but regrettably, it was burned out a second before he said it, and was turned into fly ash by the flame called stagnation in his heart.

Fortunately, Tom didn't think about asking the black priest in front of him to apologize for his rudeness. After being choked coldly, he shrugged and said with some nostalgia: "Hehe, your The reaction reminded me of an old friend, young man, and although I never felt any resemblance between the two of you, I have to admit that you a few seconds ago are exactly the same as I remembered him at one time."

"Your...old friend?"

Trying to cover up his previous gaffe with respectful words, Mo Tan is happy to talk to Old Tom about anything else, as long as it is not between himself and Yu Chen.

"Yes, old friend."

The tone of the ascetic was very nostalgic. He shrank his neck like an ordinary old man in the cool and humid evening wind, and said with a chuckle: "Many years ago, I said something similar to him, and I wanted him to take that Tell me about the troubles that you can't hide under Zhang's hippie smiling handsome face, and guess what happened?"

Combining the above, Mo Tan wisely speculated: "He rejected you very impolitely?"

"Ah, yes, but the relationship between the two of us is good, so there is nothing impolite about it, just as I didn't mind your anger that was not deliberately aimed at me just now, I didn't reject that old friend's rejection back then. Seriously."

Old Tom laughed, easily exposed the unintentional mistake of the junior in front of him, and said with a smile: "So I continued to ask the bottom line, pestering him to tell me what is on his mind, haha, if it were you If so, Priest Heifan, if I persist in asking you, what will you do?"

Mo Tan opened his mouth: "I..."

"He beat me up."

Old Tom didn't let Mo Tan finish his sentence, but calmly said something that could be called explosive, shrugging his shoulders and said: "I was still young at that time, and I was almost powerless in front of that friend who was much older than me. , within a few minutes, he was knocked down by the six-layer Holy Word, and then he laughed at me and asked me 'do you still want to know?', guess what I said at that time?"

Mo Tan blinked, and chose the possibility with higher possibility according to the context: "You mean?"

"No, I said I don't want to."

Tom made a grimace that could scare intelligent undead creatures to death if he didn't code, that is, a real ghost, and said with a dry smile: "I know that guy very well, if I say he wants to, he will definitely beat me up again, So I immediately put away my curiosity, what should I do?"

Mo Tan couldn't help laughing, thinking that this old senior who had the title of 'ascetic', which sounded very rigid, was very special in various senses, very funny.

But after a few seconds, his smile was frozen on his face by this humor.

Because Tom immediately turned to Mo Tan, and asked very seriously: "So, Pastor Black Fan, do you think you can beat me?"

Mo Tan:? ? ?
What an international joke, he is not a high-level man on paper, and his real power is not as good as the trash commandment priest, how could he beat the one in front of him who has almost no shortcomings except his ugly appearance, and his divine arts attainments Even higher than Xia Lian's boss? !
"You are..."

After being frozen for nearly half a minute, Mo Tan, who barely recovered, asked the mosaic in front of him in surprise, "What do you mean?"

"I regret it."

Tom sighed softly, looked up at the starry sky in the night sky, his tone was full of bitterness: "I regret it until now, I don't know how many times, I swear from the bottom of my heart that if I can do it all over again, I will be considered by that person." Even if I can't help him, it's better than letting that person bear so much... But I know very well that no matter how remorseful I am, no matter how much I swear, Time cannot be turned back, regrets are regrets.”

Mo Tan was silent, because he had already comprehended well what Old Tom wanted to convey.

"So, I've already regretted it once, but I don't want to regret it a second time, especially if you still can't beat me."

Old Tom smiled slyly, and said, "Take it as the waywardness of an old man. If possible, I hope I can listen to your troubles."

Mo Tan took a deep look at the mosaic in front of him, and said lightly: "You are deceiving yourself, even if I do have troubles, even if I tell you about my troubles, the past regrets cannot be made up for."

"Yes, and it's very rude."

Old Tom nodded slightly, and said calmly: "But if there is a little chance of helping you... or His Royal Highness, it's worth it."

"Have you already guessed this step..."

Mo Tan let out a long sigh, eyes full of numbness and exhaustion, and said with a dry smile: "Beforehand, I won't thank you, Mr. Ascetic."

Old Tom touched his beardless chin, and said cheerfully, "Just don't blame me for being unreasonable."

"Already complaining."

Mo Tan rolled his eyes, sat cross-legged on the ground, and said slowly after a while: "Well, to put it simply, there is a little problem between me and Yu...Wang Yu, a little bit is the dawn A problem that cannot be solved even if the goddess descends in person.”

【Gan! 】

The sacred but not majestic female voice echoed in Mo Tan's ear for half a second, but the latter turned a deaf ear.

Old Tom raised his eyebrows, and didn't bother with the faint disrespect for the goddess in the other party's words, but just asked with a smile: "What is the nature of the problem?"

"The nature of the problem is very serious."

Mo Tan gave an answer with zero information.

however……

"Let me guess."

Old Tom, who stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Mo Tan's not thin but extremely bleak back, and said lightly: "You...or the current you, the problem you are facing is not that you can use power, money, belief or any other external force. can be resolved.”

Mo Tan didn't look back, but pouted noncommittally, because the other party's so-called 'guess' just now was a complete interpretation of his own words.

"Your emotions may not waver, or even be firmer than ever before, but you can only stop before a gap that exists between you and His Highness Wangyu. There is a bottomless abyss ahead, and there is no retreat behind."

Tom continued his 'guessing', his voice unhurried.

Mo Tan, who was sitting on the ground with his chin in his hands, stared.

"Do you not deny it?"

Tom showed a not-so-good-looking smile, and sighed softly: "Perhaps, the obstacle in front of you is nothing else, but something destined to be unchangeable or disobeyed by anything, so it will become an unsolvable problem."

Mo Tan suddenly turned his head, looking at the group of mosaics with blank eyes: "Why do you..."

"I don't know, those just now are all guesses."

Tom shrugged and said with a smile: "Of course, it can't be said that there are no reference objects."

Mo Tan, who didn't know what to say and wasn't interested in gossiping, nodded slightly, and fell into silence again.

"Well, I might as well make another guess."

Tom walked to Mo Tan and sat down, looking at the shimmering branch of the Jinhui River in the distance, and asked casually: "Maybe Wang Yu has noticed it, but unlike you, she doesn't know What is that obstacle that stands in front of the two of you, right?"

"maybe."

Mo Tan looked away uncomfortably, stared at his knees and muttered something in a low voice.

"Then go ahead."

Tom patted Mo Tan on the shoulder and said something very inexplicable.

And Mo Tan also gave the same inexplicable reaction: "Huh?"

"Being able to worry about someone so much proves that you can't let him go no matter what."

Tom spread his hands, and said indifferently: "If that's the case, let's continue walking. Whether it's a chasm or an abyss lying ahead, let's talk about it when we fall."

Mo Tan:? ? ?
"It's unreasonable, right? Or is it childish?"

Tom laughed, shook his head and said, "It's normal. After all, I have never had relevant experience. It's a bit difficult to say that the analysis is clear and logical, but in many cases, most of the truths in this world lead to the same goal."

Mo Tan laughed dryly: "Then tell me about the similarities between love and cooking, if different routes lead to the same goal."

"Maybe they all need a lot of adjustments?"

Tom blinked, and then returned to the topic just now: "If we simplify things, you will find that there are undoubtedly only two endings, that is, you get together in the end, or you don't get together, there is no other choice .”

Mo Tan twitched the corners of his mouth, indicating that he was not stupid.

"Escape is the most regrettable path, and there may not be only one person who is regretful."

When he said this, there was a gleam of anger in Old Tom's eyes that couldn't be seen clearly, and he paused for a long time before continuing: "Frankly confess the concerns in your heart and face difficulties together. If you can, I think you would have I did this... So, let’s go on like this, maybe the result is not good, but it’s better than two people regretting together for who knows how long, not to mention, what if a turning point appears while walking?"

Mo Tan was slightly taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"I don't know, I'm just talking nonsense to you with my experience in practicing divine arts."

Old Tom stood up, and gradually merged with the light of the stars falling on the earth. His body turned from solid to virtual, and disappeared like evaporation, leaving only a faint good night.

"baffling……"

Mo Tan rubbed his nose, stood up, turned around and walked towards his tent: "If you know it's nonsense, don't talk about it in the first place."

……

"However, thanks anyway."

……

"It's not that I don't understand the principle that the boat is naturally straight when it reaches the bridge."

……

"It's just that even if there is a bridge hole, it will only 'sink naturally' on me..."
