Chapter 313: [The price of happiness]

Views:

I finally understood what the phrase "free blue sky" really means.

I used to think that because I was born with superpowers, my father and mother finally created that magical "purification" in order for me to return to a normal person and to allow me to enjoy a free and peaceful life like a normal person. Potion, I hope to use it to restore me to an ordinary person and live the most ordinary and normal life like an ordinary person.

There are no weird things in the supernatural world, no fighting, no fighting, no cruelty that is above the laws of this world...

I thought this was the true meaning of "free blue sky".

However, I was wrong.

I was wrong!

Yes, I was wrong!

How wrong!

free? What is freedom

Where in this world can anyone get true freedom? nobody! No! Even if you become a human being above ten thousand people, you will still be bound by the world's many secular laws.

Therefore, as long as people are still "people", they will never have absolute freedom.

The only one who possesses true freedom, transcends everything in this world, and is above any arbitrary laws... God! !

This is the true meaning of freedom.

And... the blue sky

God, isn’t he supposed to live in heaven

hahahahahahahahahahaha! !

The real meaning of this sentence is...

let me!

become! !

god! ! ! !

"Actually, most people have a wrong view."

JOKER actually sat cross-legged on the diamond-made lotus platform, like the legendary Buddha, crossing his legs and holding his fingers. His voice was no longer the electronic metal synthesized sound, but became A pleasant man's voice, with magnetism in his voice, sounded full of warmth.

"Everyone seems to think that after becoming a person with superpowers, you can enjoy more and get better treatment than ordinary people. You can even...become superior to ordinary people and surpass most people in this world. Above the laws of society. This view... is originally correct. But in fact, after becoming a person with superpowers, his life is far more miserable than that of ordinary people. Maybe it is absurd to say this, but... it is true.

The first price of becoming a superpower is to be abandoned by the vast majority of ordinary people in this world!

The so-called super heroes, becoming heroes and enjoying the cheers of millions of people are just ridiculous assumptions in Hollywood movies. In the real world, such a thing cannot exist! "

JOKER's eyes were like substance, looking at everyone, and then said with a smile: "Chen Xiao, do you understand what this means?"

Chen Xiao's expression was a little dull, but his eyes were still staring at JOKER.

"Okay, the first thing you enjoy when you become a superpower is that you are not bound by many laws. But... is this really a good thing? Let's make an interesting hypothesis."

With that said, JOKER hooked his fingers at the fat man standing at the back. The fat man immediately felt his whole body go weak. An invisible force lifted him up and slowly flew in front of JOKER.

The fat man was stunned and tried to struggle, but he could only float in front of JOKER like a painting.

"You don't have to be afraid, I won't hurt you." JOKER looked straight at the fat man: "Standing in front of God, you are just an ant. Have you ever seen a giant deliberately trample an ant to death? You are the person closest to the ordinary human class in this room, so let me ask you some interesting questions."

The fat man had no strength left in his body and could only stutter a reply: "Yes, yes... you, just ask."

"You must have been waiting for a public bus at a public bus stop." JOKER smiled: "Suppose you encounter such a situation. When you and others have been waiting in line for a long time, someone suddenly cuts in line. Instead of queuing up like you, I just passed you and jumped on the bus first. How would you react at this time?"

The fat man's lips moved a few times, and finally he told the truth honestly: "I will be unhappy."

"Yes, I'm unhappy." JOKER's voice was very calm: "Then, when you work hard and receive a meager salary for your hard work, you can live. But you see that there are people in this world who can even drop a drop of money. No need to shed a sweat, this kind of people can turn a piece of gold into their hands just by snapping their fingers. They don’t have to pay taxes, obey traffic rules, and even if they do something bad, they don’t have to worry about the police getting in trouble. They don’t have to look at their boss’s face. . Don’t worry about food, rice, oil and salt. When you live in a dirty, broken and small house, this kind of person can occupy a large piece of land at will, or even build a shabby street as his own playground. Then, you What do you think?"

"I'm still unhappy. Because it's unfair." The fat man told the truth: "Why can these people get everything easily, but we can't? Just because we are ordinary people?"

"Look, this is the truth. This is the real 'superpower' in the eyes of ordinary people. People with superpowers are born with advantages, or in other words, they are born 'different' from ordinary people! Because of this 'difference', people with superpowers You can enjoy more and better things. Yes, superpowers can transcend the worldly laws, but you understand that there must be a prerequisite for this. Do you know what it is? Chen Xiao? "

JOKER had no intention of letting Chen Xiao answer, so he gave the answer himself:

"The premise is: when you transcend secular laws, you have actually been separated from this world! You have been abandoned by this world! You no longer belong to this secular world! Don't think that ordinary people They will sincerely cheer for you, they will envy you, be jealous of you, and then they will discriminate against you and stay away from you! Because you are different from them! You will make most people feel unfair!"

JOKER's laughter continued: "Many years ago, there were several young men and women with supernatural powers around me. One girl, you all recognize her, she could set fire, but she never had friends since she was a child! Yes, she is very powerful. , no one dares to bully her. But everyone will regard her as a freak, and no one is willing to be a true friend with her. Even though she is very beautiful, no man dares to express his love for her. "

He looked at Prince: "And you, Prince, do you still remember when you were young, when your powers were revealed and others saw that you actually had a pair of wings, how did ordinary people react?"

Prince grinned: "All I remember is the frightened eyes, the screams, and a nickname that has stuck with me for decades...Birdman!"

"Well, let's talk about Gonggong. He couldn't even survive in the world of ordinary people back then. In the end, he became a pirate and hung out with a group of desperadoes all day long. But even in the pirate den, he couldn't even survive in the world of ordinary people. He has no friends! Others only have fear and fear towards him!"

JOKER sighed: "Finally, Lao Tian, my friend, what about you? As a person with powers, are you happy?"

The muscles in the corners of Lao Tian's eyes twitched.

"Of course, you are very unhappy." JOKER waved his hand: "Let's not talk about the grievances between us. Let's talk about the previous hundreds of years. Did you live a happy life?"

He immediately continued to wave his hand: "No, you are not happy! My friend, I remember you told me about your sadness. When your life can go on indefinitely, you must endure the greatest pain - what you have witnessed with your own eyes Watch your relatives and friends age and die one by one. The people you know and have a relationship with you disappear from this world one by one! Your lover and your wife are getting older and older, and You still look young, but decades later, your wife has turned into a gray-haired old woman, but you are still in your prime... Under such circumstances, how do you deal with the surprised looks from around you? Even your son, your children and grandchildren are much older than you look! You have personally buried your wife, your son, your grandson... attending other people's funerals again and again, watching They leave you one by one... I understand how it feels, it must be very bad."

"Do you know the final conclusion?" JOKER smiled and said: "The biggest tragedy for people with superpowers is that from the time they were born, they were destined to be separated from the world itself! Because this world does not belong to you, but It belongs to ordinary people! Ninety-nine percent of the people in this world are ordinary people, not the same as you! Therefore, while you are above the laws of the world, you have to endure being abandoned by most people and out of their world. The isolation and loneliness of the group! Most people will not identify with you, will not accept you, will hate you, and will think that you are a symbol of unfairness!

However, where is fairness in this world? It never happened before, it never happens now, and it never will happen again! "

"So, you don't want me to become a superpower." Chen Xiao's hoarse voice had a hint of questioning.

"Yes, I don't want you to become a person with superpowers, because I know that becoming a person with superpowers may seem like a blessing, but it is actually not a blessing." JOKER shook his head: "But, I also don't want you to become an ordinary person. Because Ordinary people have no freedom at all. So... "

"So you want me to become the same... god as you?" Chen Xiao's tone was mocking.

Chen Xiao's eyes gradually became brighter and his eyes became sharper. His voice seemed to be sighing: "I finally remember... I have recalled many past events. When I was young, something strange happened to my body. When I was young, my mother would always look at me with a sad look in her eyes, and she would always tell me that she would cure me. But the strange thing is that in every memory fragment like this, what I see is always my mother. Her face is the closest to mine. And you... My father, in these memory scenes, you have never been in front of me, as close to me as my mother. In all these scenes, you always stand Behind my mother, even standing far away, your eyes are not as worried or as gentle as my mother... Your eyes, now that I think about it, huh, are really cold!"

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "The free and blue sky... is really a big irony!"

"Hey, wake up! Wake up!!"

Zhang Xiaotao turned over and sat up after feeling his face being slapped a few times. Next to Yao Yao, he was kneeling and sitting next to him. Next to Yao Yao were Second Young Master Xu and Baicai. Xiao Qing had disheveled hair, a trace of anger on her face, her chest was bullied, and she was breathing rapidly, as if she was tired. Further away, there were the Takeuchi sisters, standing by the wall, futilely groping around with their hands.

This is a room, a closed room. What makes people feel weird is that this room has no windows or doors! But... four walls! !

"We..." Zhang Xiaotao sat up, and she immediately recalled what happened before.

"We were arrested and locked up here." Xiao Qing bit her lip, her left hand holding her right hand: "I checked, the walls here are very thick, I can't find any gaps."

"What about... Mr. Scoofy?"

"Forget about that bastard." Baicai suddenly said angrily: "He is not locked up with us, don't you understand? Shi Gaofei is one of theirs!"

Xiao Qing's palms hurt. When she woke up just now, she found that the weapons on her body had been searched, and even the soft sword on her belt was missing. She tried to slap her palms on the wall for a long time, but she almost broke her palms, and there was no response at all.

"Then... what about Yaya? Yaya, you should be able to blow up this wall!" Zhang Xiaotao suddenly remembered what was so special about Yaya.

Yaya widened his eyes, looked a little frustrated, and shook his head.

"We have already tried it." Xu Ershao held Baicai's hand with a helpless look: "The walls here are made of insulating material. You cannot discharge electricity here. In that case, the current will not spread and will instead ourselves."

The Takeuchi sisters were still knocking back and forth around the four walls, but soon Tang Ying gave up. She sat on the ground and looked here: "The walls here are very thick."

Xiao Qing closed her eyes and thought for a moment: "No matter what, we have to find a way to get out."

At this time, suddenly, a strange sound came from one wall of the room. The sound alarmed several boys and girls. The Takeuchi sisters and Xiao Qing reacted fastest, and the three of them immediately rushed over!

A wall parted silently, and a person stood outside.

A middle-aged woman with a cold face and no expression, wearing a tight-fitting uniform of unknown style, looked coldly at the young men and women in front of her. She held an iron box in her hand and placed it on the ground in front of her: "This is your food. One test tube for each person is enough to provide you with the nutrients you need. As for other needs, you can call me at any time, no need to take pictures. Wall. Even A-level superpowers cannot penetrate the wall here. If you need it, call me, my name is...waiter."
