Longmen Memoirs

"Do you really not consider what I say? Give up Tallulah and you can live." His hand grasped the handle of the knife at his waist: "Or, you choose to die here."

Alina didn't answer, but that look was her best answer.

The room became quiet, and only the faint breathing could be heard, which was buried by the wind outside, the cold air, and the cold sight.

After a long time, he released the handle of the knife and spoke softly:

"Can I trust you? ... Alina."

So Alina saw those cold and thin eyes gradually softening, looking at herself and Tallulah behind her, no longer treating everything as nothingness as before.

Those were the eyes she saw in the past, the gentle and decisive person, the person who stood beside Tallulah from beginning to end, the person who looked small compared to the tall figure of the patriot.

The man who returned from a journey of thousands of miles.

Alina slowly let go of her palms. For a moment, she wanted to cry, venting her grievances and helplessness at being alienated and hostile by the Ursus people along the way, venting her inner weakness.

She seemed to finally understand why Tallulah would always smile when he was by her side, and with his comfort, she would close her eyes and sink in peace.

Alina watched quietly as he gently bent down to bandage Tallulah's wound on the bed. She watched him cut her wrist open, and the black blood flowed into Tallulah's mouth little by little. She watched him He took off his cloak and covered Tallulah's body.

The green crystal exuded a soft and calm light, illuminating the side of his face.

Alina watched him do all this and then sat on the edge of the bed.

"Why don't you light a fire?" he asked.

"Afraid of being discovered." Alina had many questions in her mind, but all of them were dissipated in the words she just said.

"It's okay, don't worry, no one will find you."

He raised his hand, and blue flames ignited the pile of wood piled aside.

"Is it warmer?"

Alina nodded.

"injured?"

"Not my blood."

"Oh."

At this moment, the two people who were at war with each other suddenly became quiet.It's like two familiar yet unfamiliar people who can't find a topic to talk about.

Alina opened her mouth, but the words were stuck in her mouth, unable to come out.

"I know you must have a lot of doubts now." He seemed to know what Alina wanted to ask: "But since you choose to believe me, don't ask. I won't tell you. This is the agreement between me and the patriot. ."

"As long as you remember, as long as you still choose to stand on Tallulah's side, we will never be enemies."

Chapter 51 Betrayer (Cause and Effect)

"Chen..." Alina paused for a moment, looking at the Yan Kingdom Army uniform he was wearing in the firelight, and didn't know how to call him.

"Use you," he said.

"I won't ask...you...what you said just now, I...sorry." Alina felt a little guilty because of the words she said not long ago, calling this person a betrayer, but the next moment, she It was this betrayer who saved him.

"You have never betrayed Tallulah, right? Why... don't tell her."

"Remember that secret you told me?" he asked.

Alina thought of something.

"That old..."

"Shh-" He raised his finger and glanced at the unconscious woman on the bed: "I have found a way, Alina. Hatred is a very powerful force. At the same time, it is also very dangerous. He can give Your fearless courage can easily destroy you."

"You want Tallulah to hate you?"

That's why you killed those infected who wanted to leave, came here, became our enemy, and became a traitor.

"not enough……"

"Tallulah will kill you, she doesn't know, she will kill you." Alina couldn't help but say.

"If she can do it." Alina saw him gently holding Tallulah's hand: "Of course she will do it. After solving everything, the world she expected will emerge from her Born in the hands.”

With these two people in front of her, Alina suddenly felt how cruel and ruthless the world was. They obviously cared about each other, but because they cared about each other, they couldn't stand together.

Perhaps those hard years in the village of the Integration Movement were the best memories of their lives. Something slipped from the corner of their eyes and fell on their hands, crystal clear and warm, in the low temperature of Ursus. Will cool down.

He saw the tears in the corners of Alina's eyes. He reached out his hand and gently wiped away the tears for the white-haired deer.

"But I should be satisfied," he said. "I live not because I am righteous and correct, but because I have strength so I can live."

Alina lowered her head, the tears that had solidified on the back of her hand, and a thin sheet of chips and candies were gently placed in her hand.

"We lived in the same orphanage when we were young. It was a rainy night. I watched the car deliver her to the door of the orphanage. Later I found her and she also found me. She always liked to snatch nuns away. I always remember how many candies she owed me, but what she gave me later didn’t taste the way I wanted, but it didn’t matter. At that time, after the conflict between Longmen and Ursus ended, the new city It has just been built, and I often think that when we grow up, I will propose to her, and she will agree, and then we will live together in Longmen, just like this... for the rest of my life, if she wants to go anywhere, I will accompany her. She goes until the day we have to leave each other in death.”

He smiled softly, his smile was helpless and lonely.

"But things often backfired later on, and too many things happened beyond our expectations. Our fates were entangled in a combination of circumstances, and then drifted away in the world." He sighed softly and turned his head. He glanced at Tallulah: "I left the orphanage and betrayed her. She forgave me. Alina, I will not betray her a second time."

He looked at Alina.

"After leaving here, go east. The patriots are waiting for you there. Dayan's light cavalry will point you in the direction."

"What you are holding in your hands is Dayan's future strategic layout plan and offensive route. One month later, I will mobilize all legions and guards to launch a general attack on Ursus. With what you have in your hands, you can bypass Ursus will also get part of the defense network of the Great Yan army, and they will take action, so don't worry that you won't be able to escape." He said: "Tell her who I am, and then...bring her here."

"You want to die at her hands."

"This war will end because of her."

His words made Alina realize how heavy the things in her hands were, so he asked himself if he could trust himself.

"What if I just..." Alina said.

"I will kill you." He seemed to know what Alina would ask. "Forgive me, Alina, I will kill you, because you are not worthy of my trust, but fortunately you are right."

The cold and heartless words surprisingly failed to make Alina feel disgusted and contradictory.

"Thank you."

"I should say this to you, Alina, thank you." He said: "Thank you for staying by her side and not giving up on her. She will become a hero, Alina, try to believe it. Believe in her as much as you believe in yourself, she can do it, she will lead you to find new hope, and she will never let anyone down."

He looked at the unconscious Drake on the bed, his fingertips gently brushed the short silver hair on her forehead, and gently leaned down.

"You have to take care of yourself, Tallulah."

Forgive me, I can no longer keep our agreement.

Alina heard him whisper.

"Alina, Tallulah leaves it to you."

Alina felt that those words were so heavy, as if someone had handed everything about him into her hands.

She couldn't help but ask the doubts in her heart: "You...Mr. Chen Mo, can I know where you are going?"

Alina should have known, should have known who he was now when he put the chip in his hand and said those words.

"Chen Mo...not Chen Mo. Didn't you already guess it?"

He stood at the door. After opening the door, there was endless darkness in the fine wind and snow.

"You should call me - King Wu Zheng."

Alina watched him walk out the door and disappear into the darkness and snow.

She held the chip and the candy in her hand tightly.

No one noticed that Talulah moved her fingers slightly while lying on the bed.

He walked out, his footprints buried in the thick snow.

Finally, we stopped at the entrance of this abandoned village where people had fled due to the war.

Countless torches and lights lit up in the forest, the roar of chariot engines, and then the flags fluttering in the wind and snow and the sound of steel clashing with silver armor.

"Keep an eye on them, don't let them die. This is our big gift to Ursus." He ordered in a cold voice into the darkness.

"As ordered!"

"How are you today?" he asked again.

Several sergeants looked left and then again, with bruised noses and swollen faces, and nodded strangely.

"The princess did not find anyone to gamble or wrestle with today."

He sighed.

"I will pay for the medical expenses."

"My subordinates dare not."

"Let's go back."

"Yes."

He stepped onto the chariot.

Someone had been waiting for him in the car for a long time. His silver hair was mixed with a few strands of red hair, and he was sitting lazily in the car with his legs crossed.

"Oh, I'm back, um... no, should I say now, welcome your husband back?"

She straightened up, winked playfully, and looked at the person sitting opposite her slyly.

The corners of her eyes twitched.

"you are boring?"

"Is this the first thing you said when you came back to find a woman behind your wife's back?"

"The sergeant said you didn't find anyone to gamble or wrestle with today."

"Come on, it's boring." She didn't say anything. "They don't dare to be serious with me. You are more interesting."

She leaned over and held her chin.

"Look at your face. It's so cold and not cute at all. Come and have a smile." She stretched out her hand and pulled Chen Mo's face, showing a forced smile. She felt as if she had seen something funny and laughed loudly. got up.

"It's so ugly! Hahaha..."

He expressionlessly pulled down her hand that was holding his face.

"Don't forget, I married you because you told me there was a way. Princess Wu, you are responsible for running to the front line secretly... Now is the time for you to fulfill your promise. How sure are you?"

"We are husband and wife, right? The kind that a matchmaker is marrying and has paid homage to heaven and earth?"

"Huh?" He lowered his eyelids: "What do you want to say."

"That's what you're begging your wife to do, just let me help..." She stretched out her scarlet hand, pointed at the side of her face, leaned over, and raised her eyebrows: "Huh?"

"Fun?"

"Hey, are you angry now?" She said with a smile: "No, you are different from those inferior creatures, no matter what happens to you, I made a mistake, you are my husband, you can't run away, right? ?Besides, who of you can punish me?"

He hesitated for two seconds, then leaned down and kissed the side of her face.

"It smells like another woman." She said dissatisfiedly.

Chen Mo's face darkened.

"Can you be serious?"

"I'm not serious yet..." She retorted in confusion: "Do you really think I want to come to you? Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll kill yourself? If you die, I'll be so bored. People say getting promoted and getting rich will kill your wife. , but I never said I would kill my husband."

"..."

Nian looked at the military uniform on his body and put his hands on the chair.

"Fighting was really unavoidable in that era. Who can go to war, King Ming and Holy Emperor?"

"speak English【*

"Your mistress, in the situation you mentioned, it's easy to save her, but you have to find the sword I mentioned first. What's important is not the sword, but the set of swordsmanship, plus the messy things in your body. I can probably have a six, seven or eight-level grasp of things."

"She will come." He nodded.

"Now, let me say... Mr. Husband." Nian came closer, his purple eyes flashed with inexplicable light, and he was a little excited: "Let's try it. If it is you, you should be able to withstand the energy in my body." The high temperature of [-] degrees, I have long wanted to try what it feels like, maybe I can give you a son."
