In the Dark Moon Residence, Chen Rui sat on the ground, looking at the dark clouds covering the sky, took a sip of wine, and remained silent.
Empty wine bottles were lying all over the ground. In fact, Chen Rui was not addicted to alcohol, but he was usually influenced by his two alcoholic partners, and drinking among friends in this world was one of the most common etiquettes, so his true I have slowly exercised my drinking capacity (without cheating with strength), but it is the first time that I have been drinking for several days like this.
After returning to Dark Moon from the Realm of the Earth, except for drinking, Chen Rui hardly ate or did anything else, just kept silent.
Moore, his best friend, had just left him for good, so suddenly, that he had barely had time to accept it, and couldn't.
The remaining five elemental kings, including the friendly Lambost, Sestin, and Hegel, who looks the least like a friend, are actually friends.
The feeling of "lost" cannot be described in words or words.
Laura was facing the most dangerous and difficult road. When she needed help and comfort the most, he was powerless, not even being by her side.
Although Moore said that this is fate, if there were no elemental source power and source fragments, then everything would not be what it is today. So what if he can defeat Raphael, Abaddon, and even Michael and Satan? Still can't change these, change the so-called fate.
Destiny... how to surpass
Chen Rui took a sip thoughtfully, and found that the wine bottle in his hand was empty again, and another bottle appeared in his hand. Before the bottle cap was unscrewed, the bottle of wine suddenly came out of his hand and flew into the hands of the figure behind him.
"Drinking alone is boring." Pagliu's voice sounded.
"I just want to drink some wine." Du Long sat down next to him, knocked his teeth skillfully, and the bottle cap flew out, touched the new wine bottle in Chen Rui's hand, raised his head, and grunted a few times See the bottom.
"Hey, you are too stingy to drink like this." Pagliu watched Chen Rui take a sip slowly, "Shouldn't the guy who uses alcohol to relieve his worries drink it all in one go?"
Chen Rui shook his head: "Guys who come to persuade people not to use alcohol to relieve their worries, shouldn't they persuade bars like you?"
"I'm not a mother-in-law's guy. Besides, so many women have already worried about your affairs. I just want to drink some wine and have a few more bottles." Pagliu is not a polite person, and he took out Chen Rui from behind. Several bottles of wine were brought over.
"You should drink slowly..." Chen Rui looked at Pagliu's drinking speed, "That is the purple berry wine that Catherine gave me as a tribute. The quantity is limited, and it will be gone after drinking it."
The poisonous dragon chuckled: "Hey, your Majesty is all you, so what is this wine? But then again, the 'special offering' is different. The aroma of this wine is extremely mellow, far better than ordinary ones. It's a pity that Luo Mengna is going to break through and is retreating, otherwise he will definitely float over with his nose sucking, take out as much stock as you have left, don't be stingy!"
"Okay, you won." Chen Rui smiled wryly and took out another four or five bottles, "It's really gone."
The two drank wine and chatted with each other.
"I understand your mood now." Pagliu took a sip of wine, "If it was before, you might not understand it."
Chen Rui understood the meaning of the poisonous dragon. In the past, Pagliu, who was born only seeing eggshells, was a completely self-centered guy. The standard dragon would not kill himself, but now it is different. He already has friends. He and his lover have also sacrificed their lives to protect them more than once in battle, so Pagliu understands the sadness of losing a close friend.
"There is no need to explain or shirk anything. You have said it yourself. No one is perfect, and life is never smooth. You may have done the right thing, or you may have done the wrong thing, but if you do it, you do it. Why do you think about it so much? Why not think about what to do in the future."
As he said that, Pagliu breathed out a mouthful of alcohol and stretched his waist: "However, whether you are in a good mood or a good attitude, there is always a process of adaptation or mediation, as if I just knew that I suddenly had an extra surface world. When he was the father of Dragon Nest, he even fell out with Palgoris on the spot, and it took a long time before he let go of his depression."
"I'm not as entangled as you are." Chen Rui drank the last bit of wine from the bottle in his hand, but there was no new bottle in his hand, "Actually, I'm not confused, I'm just thinking about some problems."
"Don't be so sentimental, you have nothing to do with this uncle, I just want to take this opportunity to get drunk," Pagliu patted his buttocks and stood up, "Little Betty has spoken these days, let me Try those secret recipes for seeking a child, but you have to quit drinking for a while, which is really sad, but she still cares about it. However, it would be nice to have a daughter as obedient as Duo Duo, Nuo... said Duo Duo and Duo Duo will be there soon. I'll go first, and find a place to steam the wine immediately, lest the little girl smell it and go to Little Betty's place to sue."
After Dulong finished speaking, he dodged and disappeared in place. Chen Rui turned his head and saw a small head protruding from the wall behind him. It was his precious daughter.
"Dodo."
The child is actually quite sensitive. Dodo has already noticed that her father is in a low mood. She has been careful these days and has not disturbed Chen Rui. Hearing her father's active call, the little girl came out immediately, came to Chen Rui step by step, put her arms around his neck, and gently pressed her face against Chen Rui's.
"dad… "
Chen Rui hugged his daughter lovingly: "What's wrong?"
"Aunt Ji Ya, let me call you to eat."
"knew."
"Dad, shall we go eat now? Dodo hasn't eaten with Dad for a few days..."
Seeing the look of anticipation in her daughter's big bright eyes, Chen Rui's heart suddenly softened. He took a deep breath, stood up, and showed a long-lost smile on his face: "Okay."
The little girl who had completed the arduous task assigned by Aunt Ji Ya happily flew up and kissed her father, then pulled Chen Rui towards the courtyard.
Compared with the haze of this sky, another sky looks bright and dazzling.
The sunlight is scattered in the dense and lush forest, and countless beams of light are refracted in the canopy, rendering the somewhat cold forest even warmer.
There is a small hut in the middle of the dense forest. At the door of the hut, there is a tall and slender female figure, wearing a cool short robe, with a beautiful face, a pair of silver eyes sparkling, dark green long hair curled slightly, and faint Show pointy ears.
"Qilanya."
A hoarse and jerky voice came from the side. It turned out that there was another figure wearing a dark green cloak beside the elf woman. Compared with the elf's striking aura, this figure is more like smoke in the dark. If you don't look carefully, you may think it is a shade of a tree.
"Father..." From Qi Lanya's address, it can be seen that this cloaked man is the most famous legendary prophet Elusil of the elves.
"You still don't seem to be feeling better?"
"Indeed." Qi Lanya sighed, "No matter which elf it is, it will not be in a good mood when it knows that the tree of nature has been taken away by some treacherous guy; What is depressing is that the 'behind the scenes' of this incident is actually my father."
"That's right, I entrusted Fenoa to tell His Royal Highness 'Arthur' not to let the tree of nature return to Lin Hai as promised." Ai Luxie paused the wooden stick in his hand, and staggered a few steps.
"I don't know why you did this. Father should have heard the dissatisfaction of the clansmen. Everyone is questioning your decision to let that person take away the tree of nature. You are the highest teacher of the elves. Over the years, the elves We have always believed in you, but the tree of nature is the most important sacred tree of the elves, and it is also the tree of life that involves life and death. It was an incredible decision for you to let an outsider control the sacred tree. Gui, at least on the surface, it has caused extremely bad influence, not only you, the legendary prophet, but even His Majesty Liv have been implicated."
"Is it just like that?" Elusil smiled, although that half of his face looked ferocious and bloated, but the other half of his face was full of kindness: "Actually, what makes you most angry is that I'm only telling you the truth now Bar."
Qi Lanya curled her lips: "Hmph, my father has several disciples, but only one daughter, especially your daughter is also the disciple who has received the most true teachings. Why did you keep it secret from me for so long? Didn't you say that I also have a great prophecy?" talent?"
"Prophecy is not a gift to be thankful for. On the contrary, the more you can see some future trajectories, the more you will feel struggling and suffering. Moreover, the future we see is just a possible trajectory. Every time we foresee it, it may It's different, and maybe because you see it, it's changing."
"Since the future is changing, why do you still insist on letting that human master the tree of nature?"
"Because... some things, no matter how many times you foresee them, will never change." Elusil clenched the dry stick in his hand, "This is 'fate'. Fate is stubborn and almost irreversible, but it does not mean absolute .But if you rely on foresight alone, you will definitely not be able to change it.”
"So, you try to change it through some changes?" Qi Lanya was thoughtful, and suddenly shocked: "Then, you let that human keep the tree of nature..."
As the true disciple of Elusil and the owner of the great prophecy talent, Qi Lanya had already thought of something, but suddenly she didn't say anything, but her face showed a look of fear.
"The next time you see that human, give this to him."
Qi Lanya looked at something that appeared in her hand, showing surprise: "This is..."
Elusil didn't answer, but just looked up at the sky. The clear sky that was still cloudless just now suddenly darkened, and the sun was covered by a large cloud. There was rumbling thunder in the dense atmosphere, and it seemed that it would soon It's raining.
Behind the cloak, Elusil's two very different eyes became deep at the same time, as if piercing through dark clouds, time and space. After a long while, he sighed: "Heaven, it's about to change at last."
