Longmen Memoirs

Tallulah didn't answer.

The answer is self-evident. From the moment she said she would try to believe every word of Chen Mo, she was already deceiving herself. But whether it was true or not, she was not stupid enough.

"Are you going to lie to me?"

"..."

She asked so innocently that it made people think it was funny, but Chen Mo couldn't laugh because he found that he was in a dilemma when faced with Tallulah's seemingly innocent words.

Of course, he could make up one or two lies that seemed to be true. This was very common for him, but Chen Mo himself also knew that the girl in front of him would not be deceived so easily. Maybe in fact, Chen Mo didn't need to think about this at all. , because no matter what he tells, it doesn't make any difference to Tallulah whether it's a sophisticated or a clumsy lie.

What really made Chen Mo embarrassed was how he should answer after the lie lost its effect, so that he could maintain the poor trust and connection between him and the girl in front of him after this lie.

Tallulah's seemingly innocent words were actually the most pointed question.

Chen Mo fell silent briefly.

Tallulah did not urge her, and time passed slowly, but they all knew that the time left for each other would eventually come to an end. Maybe they could wait a few more seconds, minutes, or even hours, but they There is no way to wait for days, weeks, or years.

She just wanted an answer, an easy answer. She didn't even expect the truth. She just wanted a reason to convince herself from Chen Mo.

"Why don't you answer? This question deserves to make it so difficult for you to even think about it."

Chen Mo thought that from Tallulah's point of view, his appearance was too strange. A friend he hadn't seen for more than ten years suddenly appeared in front of him one day. Before that, they had been living in embarrassment. But after he came, In just one year, their plight gradually improved.

If we recall carefully, the half-truths and half-false answers she got from Chen Mo in the past were not entirely true. At that time, Tallulah had no doubts. Perhaps it was because she was so happy to be reunited that she ignored this. Maybe it's because she doesn't want to think about it.

After encountering the attack from the inner guards, and now thinking that everything started from that time, Frost Star and Snow Monster began to identify with him, and they also developed a slight dependence on him. From then on, the entire camp seemed to have accepted him. Even patriots talked happily with him.

But what if this is just a conspiracy, a long-deliberate lie, just like that village, like a curse on him, a huge joke played by fate on her, making her believe it, and then putting her destroy.

Tallulah had to think about it, but once she thought about it, she found that there were so many doubts about Chen Mo in front of her, so much so that when he met the inner guard, these doubts seemed to be connected in series. A seemingly reasonable explanation.

But she is still denying the result.

Chen Mo has never seen Tallulah like this. It would be better to say that since he grew up, he has never seen Tallulah like this in Ursus.

She tried her best to hide her uneasiness in her eyes, the anxiety and struggle hidden in the deepest part of her emotions. It seemed that except when Chen came to the orphanage and hesitated whether to see her, Chen Mo had never seen it in Tallulah. past these.

She had never seen that even she herself noticed the desire that could not be hidden in her eyes again, longing for someone to give her a reason to convince herself, longing for her to accept it, and for her to see her again. Relatives.

In the past, Chen Mo became that person. In the past, under Ms. Teresa's persuasion, Chen Mo was actually not willing to be that person.

The sky was gloomy and dim.

The light rain gradually fell after the car stopped, falling on the shoulders of the silver-haired woman.

The building buried in the tall valley cliff in front of us is exposed under the gloomy and dark sky. This location is too hidden, hidden in the valley's depression, and half-buried between the mountain walls. If you don't come from the front, pass through the place in front. It is difficult to find this building hidden in the Ursus wilderness among the fir trees.

This place is not far from the snowfield, on the edge, remote and desolate, and still some distance away from the current location of the camp.

Another vehicle was parked at the door of the building. Half of the wall collapsed and the black entrance was pushed open slightly.

Tallulah got off the vehicle and looked at【}~

It was an empty injection. There was no model number on it, but it looked a bit like the Originium Disease inhibitor she had seen before.

She put the test injection into the pocket behind her.

The flames blooming from his hands illuminated the appearance of the building.

The air is turbid and mixed with a thick musty smell. There is a shallow pool of water under your feet. You can't see the whole inside of the building at a glance. The cold wind pours in from behind, and you will feel a chill unconsciously. .

"Where is this place? Why is there such a secret building on the edge of the Ursus tundra."

As they gradually deepened, a corridor lined with steel doors on both sides appeared in front of Tallulah's eyes. It was still dark and had no end in sight, but the water under her feet had disappeared.

She walked forward, passing rusty iron doors that were either half-open or tightly closed.

Someone must have lived here before, and judging from the architectural style, it looks like a secret research institute. What are they studying here? What were those rooms with iron doors used for?

There are scratches left by weapons on the wall, and black bloodstains. It seems to have been a long time. There has been a battle here. Was it an attack?

Why are you here?

There were more and more questions in Tallulah's mind, and this suspicious building gradually shrouded her heart.

Until there was a vague voice from the front, a strange voice.

She hurriedly extinguished the flame in her hand and gradually walked towards the direction of the sound in the darkness until the sound gradually became clearer.

"Usus...inner guards, rebellion...crazy, no one can be sure...we are all failures..."

Tallulah's heart gradually sank.

She saw Chen Mo and Nei Wei standing in the black square.

She didn't go out, she just listened, but she couldn't help but feel that she shouldn't have come to this place because of the doubts in her heart, but she didn't want to escape.

"Why don't you answer? This question deserves to make it so difficult for you to even think about it."

Tallulah actually knew that she knew what Nei Wei and Chen Mo talked about. She knew that Chen Mo and Nei Wei might have some connection, but he could not be on Nei Wei's side.

She just wanted to know how many things Chen Mo had hidden from her. She wanted to know about the injection and the building hidden in the wasteland. She wanted to completely reject other thoughts that came to her mind, the village and Chen Mo that could not be erased. doubts, in order to make up for the trust they had in each other that they had not seen and regained for more than ten years.

Tallulah knew that there were many things that she had never found the opportunity to say, because if she asked, Chen Mo's answer might not be truthful.

He's a liar, and it's really hard to get him to tell the truth.

Chen Mo had no way of knowing what Tallulah was thinking. After all, he couldn't read minds. He didn't expect that as a liar, he would fall into someone else's trap one day. Maybe it was just because he said too much. There were so many lies that he subconsciously told lies even when he guessed himself.

"..."

"..."

Chen Mo looked at Tallulah's figure, and his eyes fell on her hand holding the hilt of the sword. He remembered that he had faced the inner guard in the same way not long ago, but the difference was that he didn't know whether Tallulah had been prepared for this.

Can she do it?

Can I do it again?

Chen Mo knows what kind of person he is.

He didn't hesitate any longer.

"I was just wondering where to start with you." Chen Mo said.Then he asked: "Which story do you want to know, about the inner guard or about this black wall?"

"You can speak slowly."

"I'm afraid I don't have the time. The inner guard told the Ursus army the location of the camp. We have to resolve this matter before they take action."

"Now, how should I trust you? Chen Mo, trust a person who has colluded with the internal guards. Trust him when he told me that the Ursus people would attack the camp, not a plan you had planned in advance to deceive and exploit the infected. drama?!"

"..."

Her words were cold and stern.

"So let's solve the current problem first."

"Even if you ignore the safety of the camp?"

"Ha, that's not it. Are you looking down on the guerrillas and patriots too much?" She looked directly at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo seemed to have thought of something.

"That is to say, the more critical issue now is how to treat me, who may be an Ursus spy, right? Yes, compared with things that cannot be determined, even if what I say is the truth, it cannot be ruled out that I suspicion."

"That's what you taught me."

"You study well."

"I gave you a chance, and now it's your turn. I'm listening. No matter how long this story is, I will patiently listen to you until dawn."

I will try to believe every word you say.

I want to know how the past you are unwilling to tell me is so heavy that it is difficult for you to speak.

Shouldn't I keep you?

[You have to believe that everything you care about, in the end, they don’t care about you. 】

[You will see that your thoughts come to nothing, and you will do evil... Once you identify with me, once you understand me, once you understand what kind of land you are on...]

【Tallulah...】

In the dark, the black snake quietly wakes up, but there should never be such a thing as destiny in this world.

Chapter 93 Tangled Cause and Effect

It's too late, it's too late, no one can save a person who is seeking death. If words can persuade a person to turn back, it means that he has indeed not made up his mind. There are many but not many such people.

In fact, in most cases, people who can listen to advice don't need to persuade people, and people who can't listen to advice are useless.

Empathy is a hypothesis. It comes from people's short-term feelings about the same thing that may be similar, but they may not be very real or last long. They are often short-lived and forgotten in the blink of an eye.

And Tallulah seems to be in this situation now.

The gray on Chen Mo's head looked more conspicuous, but if he didn't pay attention to it for a while, time quietly took away many years from him.

Young, calm, suspicious, stubborn and gentle, Tallulah finally realized what the strange feeling that had always existed in her heart was.

It was a contradiction, a shadow suddenly found on a young face that seemed to be seen only in patriots and old people.

But what should he really be like.

Under the countless true and false words he concealed and the peaceful face he showed to others, there were many unknown pasts and bitterness hidden in his heart.

He would never mention it to others. If people didn't ask, he wouldn't tell. Even if people asked, he would deliberately pretend not to understand.

He didn't think that would do anything, and he didn't think that telling others about his past would have any meaning other than showing his weakness.

Chen Mo has always been a liar who loves to lie. He never knows how to take into account other people's feelings. He will always only act on his own wishful thinking.

"Are you sure you're going to talk here?" Chen Mo asked.

"What's the problem?"

Chen Mo walked towards Tallulah, and he passed by Tallulah, who did not stop him.

A voice sounded from beside me.

"Change another place. I heard the thunder outside. Before the rain stops, I will tell you everything this time."

Tallulah turned around and looked at his back.

"all?"

"As long as you want to know."

He followed Chen Mo's footsteps, only half a step behind, and he could vaguely see his long, gray hair tied up in the diffused light.

Chen Mo couldn't look back, so he didn't notice the gentleness gradually showing in her gray eyes.

The sound of footsteps hitting the ground was particularly clear.

The most boring thing Chen Mo has done in the past is to count the footsteps from far to near and then from near to far in the darkness. In fact, it doesn't make much sense, but here people can't do it so easily if they don't look for something. Asleep.

"where is this place?"

"I call it the Black Wall."

"Black wall?"

"I left Longmen when I was ten years old, and I have been living here since I left the orphanage."

Chen Mo's words were very plain. Tallulah was stunned for a moment. Her steps paused for a moment, and the plain words fell into her ears, as if she was telling something that had nothing to do with her.

Chen Mo stopped lying, but reality is often not as easy to accept as lies.

Tallulah tried her best to suppress her emotions, so she couldn't let the words behind her move. However, she couldn't help but think of the remarks she just heard from the inner guard.

She suddenly felt that she shouldn't continue asking, but at the same time she wanted to know what happened to Chen Mo.

"What...are you doing here?"

"First it's killing, killing the other people who came with it, and then training, training day after day, it's boring and it's easy to lose your life." Chen Mo's footsteps did not stop, Tallulah couldn't see him saying these words time appearance.

"Later I was tied up with an Ursus boy, and we were assigned to the same group. He was a very weak guy. Although he was tall, he didn't have the guts to hurt anyone. I suffered a lot from him. ." Chen Mo said: "You don't know, at that time I often thought that one day I would be dragged down by him and die here. I thought that might be a good thing, but I couldn't accept that I was willing to die here. Yes, so I lied to him."

Chen Mo smiled, as if he was remembering the past days in the darkness in front of him.

There was a smile in his voice.

"I lied to him and said that he didn't need to kill or hurt anyone. I would help him. I would help him kill. All he had to do was use a shield to block behind me. He didn't need to do evil. I would be a villain for him. That guy is really stupid, he actually believed my words and really chose Zhang Dun to guard behind me."
