"When I returned home that year, I overheard a few conversations between my father and my uncle. At that time, my uncle mentioned my name and said in a strange tone that I was 'his child'. Since then, I have Some deeply buried doubts, but I am more willing to believe that everything is just that I have misheard, or I may have misunderstood what uncle meant. So, I buried these deep in my heart, and I did not, and I dare not ask anyone .Until that day, a person whom I sincerely admire buried these heavy digs in my heart, and I had to think about it all again. I can no longer escape. If I can't know the truth, my whole life will be in vain. No peace."
"Men of the Southern Emperor's direct lineage will flow with loyalty to the soul deeply imprinted on their ancestors. No matter how many generations it passes on, it will not change. This is what that person told me. And my father, he has long since given up looking for the Southern Emperor. Zhijian, if it wasn’t for the news of the Southern Emperor’s Sword that suddenly appeared three years ago, he wouldn’t even believe in the existence of the Southern Emperor’s Sword. His ambition is to rule the world. But my younger brother Wuque insisted on traveling the world since he was a child, Looking for the location of the Southern Emperor's Sword, he was unwilling to obey his father's wishes no matter what. For this reason, the father and son were estranged and rarely returned home. He said that it was because my younger brother had the direct blood of the Southern Emperor, and my father , but not... Are these all true?"
The madman's frenzied screaming continued, showing no signs of stopping.
"Are... are you really crazy? He is also implying to me that you are not crazy. You bear the burden of humiliation just to see the light of day again and lead the Southern Emperor Sect to the track you want... Tell me, are you crazy... If you really If you are just a lunatic, then everything he speculates will not be empty talk, so I can let go of all this and stop thinking about it. If you are not a lunatic... then tell me, you are really not crazy. "
Shui Mengchan looked at the lunatic in front of her, looking for his gaze that was completely covered from time to time, her heartbeat became faster and faster. His whole body was extremely dirty, but the eyes that flickered from time to time were so clear, without any sign of filth. She didn't know if anyone else had touched his eyes at this time, but at least, she had known countless people in these years, and she had a thorough understanding of human nature. This kind of hidden emotional eyes should not belong to a madman... She's already got half the answer.
She needs an exact answer.
She stretched her hand towards her neck, and slowly took off a piece of ice blue water jade that was tied with ice blue filaments and was in the shape of water droplets. This piece of water jade, she has been wearing it since she just started remembering things. As long as she can remember, she knew that it was formed by her father and mother when she was just born with the joint efforts of water jade. Let her have perfect skin as she grows up, and it will also help her practice Shuiyu Gong. Twenty-five years later, the aura of water jade in it still hasn't dissipated, and a dreamlike blue light of water can be seen in the dark. Her mother, Shui Fu'er, told her on her third birthday that she should never use this piece of jade. Shuiyu was discarded, and she always wore it like this. Today, she began to understand why her mother never smiled, and why her mother told her never to discard this water jade.
Because, this piece of water jade, which was condensed by her biological parents and worn around her neck, is an identity symbol that only their family knows.
The rich light elements did not cover the dreamy blue light, but gave the strange blue light an extended carrier, and the light was entrained with a faint and comfortable blue color.
The madman's roar suddenly disappeared completely, and the crazy movement also stopped at this moment. The sudden silence made Shui Mengchan's heartbeat seem to stop, and time froze in an instant.
This moment of silence allowed Shui Mengchan to get the answer she longed for and was extremely afraid of.
"Chan... er..."
Those two strands of eyes that appeared and disappeared behind the hair began to shake, and gradually became hazy again, as if separated by a layer of heavier and heavier water vapor. In the deathly silence, the lunatic's mouth actually overflowed with an incomparably dry voice. Although it was hoarse and difficult to hear, it was almost unrecognizable, but Shui Mengchan was still clearly convinced that the two words that stirred her heart were "Chan'er... "
Shui Mengchan was stunned, although she had already made enough preparations, but when she really faced this terrible and cruel reality, this extremely strong woman was still stunned for a short time, then took a deep breath, and with a trembling voice Said: "You... can you talk?"
Crazy... Now he can no longer be called a lunatic, perhaps because he has not spoken for too long, his voice is not only dry, but also has a lot of distortion in his voice, he did not answer Shui Mengchan, but said slowly: "You are two years old. That year... I asked you what birthday gift you want... You said, you want a snowfall... "
Shui Mengchan shook violently as if struck by lightning.
"... When I said I couldn't do it, you were disappointed and cried aggrieved... At that time, I told you that when you grow up, I will go to the far north to find the one who can make the sky snow Xue Nu came... But this promise, a promise made by a father to his daughter, has not been fulfilled for twenty-three years... "
That mournful voice was mixed with the mournful cry of a man, containing the blood and tears in his heart. At this moment, he still looks like a lunatic.
Every word he said was like a heavy hammer smashing into the depths of Shui Mengchan's heart. In an instant, her tears soaked her veil, sadness, pain, shock, confusion... all kinds of complicated emotions came together. It surged up, intertwined in a chaotic way in her heart. When she was two years old, the birthday gift she and her father wanted was a secret known only to them.
It was also since she was two years old that she never saw her mother smile again. Her father was still kind, but it made her feel alienated obviously, and she could no longer enjoy the father's love that warmed her body and mind and allowed her to act like a baby to her heart's content.
The crystal ball releasing the light element in her hand slipped out of her hand at the same time as the drop-shaped warm jade. The crystal ball landed on the damp and rotten ground, and the water jade was still hanging on the ground because of the silver thread. In her hand, a faint blue light dangled in the air. Shui Mengchan's lips trembled, and she made a voice like a cuckoo weeping blood: "Father... it's really, really you..."
Why... why is it like this...
This lunatic... turned out to be her father... Then who is the person outside who she calls father, and what is hidden in it!
"Cicada, it's been twenty-three years... you've grown so big... I can see you again, even if my father dies immediately, I can finally have less regrets." For a long time, suppressed for too long, the man who has not fallen down after twenty-three years of inhuman torture finally shed tears, and the uncontrollable teardrops drew clear traces on his face...
Twenty-three years, how many twenty-three years can there be in one's life. Twenty-three years ago, he was at the best age in a person's life. He had a lovely daughter and a wife whom he loved and loved.
he. He is also the only candidate for the suzerain of the Southern Emperor Sect.
However, everything has changed since the great accident twenty-three years ago. It was like a nightmare, which completely overturned his life and brought him into another nightmare, one that lasted for two years. Thirteen years of nightmares.
In twenty-three years, such torture can easily turn a person with a normal body and mind into a complete lunatic. Everyone thought he was crazy too. However, he is not crazy.
"Live..." His father, who was also plotted against, told him these three words in a weak voice on his deathbed. He couldn't die, because if he died, the direct bloodline of the Southern Emperor would be completely cut off from then on. Therefore, relying on the loyalty and unbelievable obsession deeply imprinted in his bones, his nostalgia for his wife and children who are still alive, and the angry oath and monstrous hatred that he has kept in his heart for a full twenty-three years, He survived. As long as he does not die, there is still hope. He is waiting for the opportunity, and he also believes that God will never allow the Southern Emperor's bloodline to be cut off.
Later, he learned from the resentment of "Shui Yuntian" that his wife who was pregnant at that time gave birth to a son for him, and he cried a lot in the mad roar... From that moment, he knew better The meaning of my own life is that I would rather endure all kinds of pain and shame than endure it, and live on. Because, he must tell his son all the truth—only those who have the pure blood of the Southern Emperor will know that what they have is unswerving loyalty to their ancestors, even if the world changes, it will not change, his son He will definitely not change his beliefs about what he should hold because of his "father".
These years, he pretended to be crazy and foolish, just for himself to survive, and for the people he hated to relax their vigilance and let him wait for that slim chance. He succeeded, and for a full twenty-three years, when his madness had become a habit, some people who were still wary of his survival also lost their wariness over time, and even no longer thought of him. exist. Except for "Shui Yuntian", he doesn't want anyone to come near where he is, and he doesn't want to look at his once high-spirited misery and downfall. Just the bad environment he was in made them shy away.
For twenty-three years, the pain he endured was unimaginable... God is sorry, today, he finally hoped for a ray of light in the darkness - he saw his daughter who had been separated for twenty-three years. His heart, which was struggling in pain, also came alive as if awakened, bringing the tears that he had suppressed for too long to fall like rain. At the beginning of Shui Mengchan's arrival, his words made his heart beat wildly, but how could he be careless after forbearance for too long, how could he let his 23 years of forbearance come to naught. And when Shui Mengchan took out the water jade that he personally put on for her after she was born, he finally confirmed that this would not be a temptation...he saw his daughter. The throbbing at that moment made him want to cry, but in order not to disturb others, he forcibly suppressed the almost uncontrollable excitement, but he couldn't stop the tears from pouring down. In front of his daughter, the father's strength was easily defeated.
"Why... this is not true... why is it like this... tell me, why is it all..." I couldn't see his face clearly, and couldn't recognize his voice, but his reaction when facing the piece of water jade was still there. With the few words he said, she no longer had any doubts.
He is her father...
