Durin's Diary

Chapter 558 Happiness
It’s hard to talk about the little things that happened to the Clegane family.

But Du Lin had seen this instrument that could revive life with his own eyes, and Eleven had also confirmed its working process.

So Du Lin dragged the old men and women over and, holding up the blackboard, explained the working principle of the device in detail. In the end, Du Lin gave a conclusion: "In the hands of others, this machine can indeed revive our own people, but for us, if we use it once, I'm afraid our camp will never be able to recover."

The Three Saints Society were all families that had gone to great lengths to renew their oaths. They naturally understood how terrible a curse would be brought upon their family if they broke their oaths again after renewing them. The curse of breaking an oath once was completely different from the curse of breaking an oath twice.

For the former, you can just hold on and maybe after dozens of generations the effect of the curse will be weakened.

The latter does not require you to endure, you will die directly without giving you any time to hesitate, let alone dozens of generations of yours.

So all the doubts I had before disappeared.

………………

After Du Lin threw away the chalk and left the small meeting room, Uryula crossed his legs and looked at the new family leader gathered around him: "Look, Master Du Lin has already studied this old treasure thoroughly. You think it's a good thing, but unfortunately, for us, it's poison."

"Yes, we are all descendants of families that broke their oaths. Being forgiven and allowed to rejoin the Three Saints is already a gift from fate. You guys, you always want to make contributions, but are you sure it's so easy to earn them?" the old woman from the Idar family said with a smile. "Just do your job well. Master Durin and the Three Saints will treat you unfairly. As for this machine, tell the children not to try to make money with it. The Vincent family is a legacy, and even the God of Fate wouldn't say anything if he used it, but for later generations like you and me, we can't tolerate any overstepping of our bounds."

After driving away the leaders of these new families, Uryula sighed, "Young Master Dulin's ambitions are so magnificent that even a lowly rat like me truly admires him. He also has his own understanding of good and evil. The new guy wants to show off in front of him. It seems that the Vincent family will be in big trouble in the future."

"Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. My point is that holding this kind of thing will only bring all kinds of trouble. Even if we don't use it, what about the stakeholders? In order for one person to live, another person must die in the machine. I've never heard of such an alchemical exchange ritual."

"Young Master Du Lin once said that the old times were essentially the same as the present. I didn't believe it, but now it seems I was overly fond of the old times. This land is so devouring that there's no need for time and space." The elf who had just seen off the newcomers said this. He looked at the two before him and said, "After following the young master for these past few years, I feel like all my life has been wasted. He seems to know everything and understand everything."

At this, both the old vampire and the old woman laughed.

The former sighed: "Don't mention you, I don't understand it either."

………………

The old man and Yan Zhenqing also couldn't understand it. After hearing the whole story, the two old men knew that Changtang was not without such an instrument, and Zhulong had been saved by such a machine before.

"Tell me, how did he control his desires? A resurrection device? Even in Changtang, such a device would attract many people's covetousness." The old man really didn't understand.

Yan Zhenqing didn't understand either, but he felt that there were too many things about Du Lin that he couldn't understand, and this one was no exception.

In the end, the two old men sat on the third floor and started drinking.

Until Uryula appeared on the third floor and sat next to the two of them.

"You old bat, I told you, we really don't understand this kid Durin, but we know his temper. The new small family that has joined your Three Saints Society is a mixed bag, and some of them are eager to make achievements, right?" The old man handed the bowl and chopsticks to the old vampire.

"I'm annoyed by their noise, and I also want to see whether Master Durin really cares about resurrection." Having said that, Uryula poured himself a glass of wine.

On the stage nearby, a young pianist was playing the classic music of the Master of the Everburning Nest.

"The facts prove that we worried too much." Having said that, Uryula looked at the old man and Yan Zhenqing: "Gentlemen, you have not seen Du Lin for as long as I have, but you can see him more thoroughly than I can." "Zhulong's temperament is mostly arbitrary, but he also understands the principle of not doing to others what you do not want others to do to you." Yan Zhenqing said here and looked to the side.

The girls from Dulin went up to the third floor. They saw the trio sitting in the corner and immediately came over to greet them with a smile.

"Lan En seems to be much more cheerful. It was really a good decision for you to bring her here." Qing Zhenyan sighed.

As the old man flipped the grilled sausages on the iron plate, he sighed, "There are only dead trees that can be moved in this world, but there are no dead people who can be moved. If we change our way of life, maybe we can find a way out. It's best that this child is happy. I have lived so long just because I don't want to see tears in children's eyes. I am old and can't stand suffering."

Uryula nodded: "You are right."

………………

When Du Lin returned to the second floor, the girls said they wanted to go upstairs to tidy up the room. After Du Lin left, his mother had been living on the floor below the top floor and refused to go up to the top floor no matter how much they persuaded her.

There was no other choice, so Du Lin had to move back to the top floor with the girls.

As for him now, he has to take Melinda to the market - it is said that the grandmother takes Uncle Hannibal to buy vegetables in the market every day and cooks for her little granddaughter herself.

At first, Uncle Hannibal was very unhappy because he felt that the tall old woman looked down on his craftsmanship.

Until Du Lin's grandmother made a northern breakfast - it was really awesome.

So Uncle Hannibal didn't hesitate and just followed suit.

But before he even went out the door, he saw Uncle Hannibal coming back with two large bags of food on his back. He was walking in front, and Dulin's grandmother was walking behind.

"Grandma, I'm really happy to see that you are still healthy." Du Lin sent a greeting as a younger generation.

The old lady smiled and patted Du Lin's head happily: "You've been busy until the end of the year, and you finally have time to come back. That's good. This time you have to leave after the New Year."

"Of course." Du Lin answered as a matter of course.

"Well, you'll eat the breakfast I make for the next few days," Grandma said, then looked at Melinda. "Melinda has grown taller again."

The silly rabbit smiled as hard as the five hundred on the opposite side.

"Everyone's upstairs, let me do it." Du Lin reached out to help Uncle Hannibal carry the bag, but the stubborn old dwarf refused: "I'm learning northern cuisine from your grandmother now. This is what Uncle should do."

Okay, now that you say that, Du Lin can only smile.

　The work and rest schedule exploded again...
