Lan Jue lowered his head, like a child who made a mistake, "I, I have no face to come back."
The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly flashed, and suddenly, the air in the whole room suddenly twisted violently. Lan Jue was like a bird caught in a vortex, and his whole body seemed to be accompanied by this twisted The air twists.
The energy in his body burst out subconsciously, resisting this powerful oppressive force, and a faint blue light also overflowed from his body.
But in the next moment, the pressure suddenly disappeared, Lan Jue's body swayed slightly, and he quickly stood still, and the faint black and white halo flashed away from him.
The middle-aged man nodded slightly, and said four words that Lan Jue could never think of: "Just come back."
Lan Jue raised his head suddenly, with his strength, at this moment, a layer of mist appeared in his eyes, "Father, I..."
The eyes of the middle-aged man looked a little lonely, and he waved his hand, "It's not your fault, it's because I was too rigid before."
If he beat himself up, maybe Lan Jue would feel better in his heart. He had imagined countless scenes of reuniting with his father, but he definitely didn't have the atmosphere in front of him. He would rather face that old man who was full of rage, with cold and powerful eyes, and unparalleled pressure, than face this old man with peaceful eyes and a bit of vicissitudes.
At this time, Lan Jue suddenly realized that he didn't seem to fully understand his father. This was the first time he saw the peaceful side of his father, but he didn't know why, he just knew that this should be the most real side of his father.
"You don't need to hide from me in the future. I called you back this time just to tell you something." The middle-aged man said flatly.
Lan Jue subconsciously stood up.
The middle-aged man raised his head, the light in his eyes flashed, and the two just looked at each other, without making any sound for a long while.
The middle-aged man suddenly laughed. Although in Lan Jue's eyes, the smile of his father who never laughed was a bit far-fetched and ugly, but his smile made Lan Jue's tears well in an instant.
"My child is right! I've been away for a long time and I want to go home." The middle-aged man said in a low voice.
"Father!" Lan Jue cried out with tears streaming down his face, and was about to fall to his knees, but the middle-aged man stood up first, and with his thick and powerful arms, he hugged him fiercely with one hand.
"I'm sorry, Dad, I'm sorry." Everyone has a vulnerable side in their hearts, and only in front of this man in front of him, Lan Jue's vulnerability will be released without reservation.
The middle-aged man smiled happily, "Maybe I'm really old, and I have learned to let go."
Yes, he has learned to let go. With his strength in the past, how could he take the initiative to call Lan Jue to ask him to come back? It was precisely because of this headstrong that Lan Jue didn't dare to come back at all.
"Okay, don't cry, don't act like a woman." She let go of Lan Jue's arm, and patted him hard on the shoulder.
Lan Jue wiped away the tears from his face, and he also smiled. This incomparably tough tone is the father! But at this moment, the voice that used to scare him now sounds so kind.
"Daddy, shall we go home?"
"Okay!" The middle-aged man nodded, raised his hand and pressed on the table. The wall at the back of the office cracked to both sides, revealing a shell-like cabin with room for only four people.
Lan Jue and the middle-aged man sat in, Lan Jue put on his seat belt, but the middle-aged man didn't.
The cabin door was closed, and in the next moment, a low buzz sounded, and then, the cabin really shot out like a cannonball, and the terrifying speed reached in an instant instantly suppressed Lan Jue firmly without a decompression device. on the seat.
The middle-aged man sat there with nothing to do, with a faint smile on his resolute face, he took a sip of the cigar in his hand, and then slowly blew it out. Immediately, the whole cabin was filled with the strong smell of cigars. fragrant.
"Father, you are still so extravagant. This 1966 is really strong." Lan Jue laughed.
The middle-aged man snorted, "I only have this hobby, don't even think about it, it's not for you."
Lan Jue chuckled, but didn't say anything.
"Tell me." The middle-aged man said lightly.
The smile on Lan Jue's face suddenly subsided, and after a little pondering, he began his narration.
The middle-aged man was smoking a cigar while listening calmly. There was no smoke exhaust system in the cabin, and it was soon filled with the smoke of the cigar, blocking their vision of each other to a certain extent. But Lan Jue didn't have any objection, this is the old man's habit, he has always been like this.
The calm narration is combined with Lan Jue's uneasy expression, the story is a bit lengthy, but it is by no means lacking in changes.
The middle-aged man listened very seriously, but he didn't ask or intervene. He just listened to him, as if he was really just listening to a story.
"Buzz!" The cabin stopped and became quiet in an instant.
The hatch opened, and the smoke from the cigar rushed out. Lan Jue and the middle-aged man walked out of the cabin and boarded the elevator. The elevator went up, and a few minutes later, they were on the ground again.
The metal door of the elevator opened, and there was a wooden door in front of it. The middle-aged man walked over and pushed away, and Lan Jue followed behind him.
Immediately, the fresh air rushed in, and the faint fragrance of flowers and plants was refreshing.
This is a wooden house without any metal, and the furnishings and displays in the wooden house are full of simplicity. If there are antique experts here, they will definitely recognize that everything here is actually an antique. Very beautiful.
Outside the window, green trees, grass, flowers and birds are all missing. The windows are open, and that's where the fresh air from outside comes in.
Looking at this familiar environment, Lan Jue couldn't help being in a daze. He still clearly remembered that he and his brother lived here when they were young, living in this carefree place. It's a pity that they didn't have the time and energy to appreciate anything at that time, because since they were five years old, they have received inhuman training.
He used to be very ruthless to his father for a long time, because those days were too painful, but his father told them that if they want to become a master, they must endure hardships. The road to take must not be ordinary, and he will not allow them to be ordinary.
Then came Prometheus and Zeus.
Looking back now, my father was undoubtedly right. Although his methods were too simple and rude, the pain in the past has become the accumulation of the present. He wants to live more freely in this world and experience more beautiful things. Then, first of all, you must become strong yourself. Lan Jue didn't really understand this until many years later.
The middle-aged man opened the door and walked out.
Lan Jue followed behind him.
What came into view was a forest, yes, it was a forest.
Within a hundred acres around the wooden house, there are lawns, and further away, there is a forest. These forests are like a hedge around the cabin, guarding it.
The fresh air and the strong energy of heaven and earth surround this place.
Lan Jue knew very well that these plants were planted by his father. Since he lived here, his father has been doing this. This is also the biggest leisure in his daily life.
Who would have imagined that the generation of emperors who once dominated the human world, the king who defeated all heroes in the legendary battle, would become an old farmer and a top scientist on this small administrative star.
Dad once said that his biggest dream in his life is to experience everything that can be experienced as much as possible. And this experience is not just to look at, but to go deep into it.
He has tried many identities and spent his long life learning many things. Therefore, no matter from Lan Jue or Lan Qing's point of view, Dad is like a vast ocean, so deep that the bottom cannot be seen. He is like an encyclopedia that stores the best knowledge of mankind, omnipotent!
"I miss this place so much." Lan Jue said with a light sigh.
Juedi said lightly: "Then you didn't come back either? Am I really that scary?"
Lan Jue glanced at him, "Want to hear the truth?"
Jue Di nodded.
"Yes!" Lan Jue said without hesitation.
The corner of Juedi's mouth twitched, "Since there is, then I want to slap you."
Lan Jue smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I think it's normal if that's the case. You scared me just now. But I don't like that feeling."
Juedi laughed and said: "It seems that I can't be a good person anymore. It turns out that you all like me as a bad person."
Lan Jue shook his head, "No, it's not. I like you now. But, I don't want you to grow old."
Juedi was silent, and after a long while, he sighed softly, "Whether it is an ordinary person or a supernatural person, who can really not grow old? Although the future is still very long, the heart will always grow old. You You know? When I found out that I was afraid of being alone, even I was taken aback. It is precisely because of this fear that some things that I insisted on before seem to be naturally let go."
Lan Jue stared at him blankly, his father would never tell them what was in his heart before, he was so strong and domineering, a generation of peerless emperor.
But now, he really seems to have become an old man who likes to recall the past. Although he still looks so young.
"Father, there are many things happening outside. If you feel lonely, you can go out and have a look! The human world also needs you." Lan Jue said.
Juedi smiled lightly, "What do you need? So what if you don't need it? When the power reaches a certain level, it will make people fear. Not only the enemy is afraid, but even the partners are also afraid. I still like this place, even if I am alone, but Here, at least I am free. The people here only know that there is Chi Engineer, but they don’t know that there is Jue Di. I am here, but Chi is not fat. I am used to this kind of life. Saving human beings is your youth people's business."
