Chapter 914 Naturally sinking
[Pushing me to the forefront is to protect me? 】
【What is the exception for allowing me, a low-level cleric, to participate? 】
【Academy City...well, I do know this. 】
[Academy City’s grand event...well, I know this too].
[The Holy Religion Alliance is naturally qualified to participate, but in terms of candidates...]
[Even if Yuchen is a favored person of God and a saint of the Dawn Sect, she should not be qualified to represent the Alliance to attend, right? 】
【Not to mention my words, even if I double my contribution to Sumir, it is still far behind Yuchen. 】
Mo Tan narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into thinking based on some information he had collected from other channels. In the process, he subconsciously ignored a certain fact that was very important to him. That That's it...
"You can go with His Highness Wangyu. This should be good news for you, Pastor Heifan, right?"
The mosaic on Tom's face was slightly distorted. Based on the tone analysis, he should have smiled slightly, and said briskly: "We all feel that as a couple, you and His Highness Wangyu spend too little time together, and The main responsibility for this lies with the church. Although it was not intentional, it is an indisputable fact that you are separated from each other for a long time. Therefore, Your Highness Xia Lian and I agree that this is a good opportunity. , His Majesty the Pope also expressed his support, so he won such a place for you."
Mo Tan, who was forced to turn his thoughts to 'travelling with Yuchen', sighed imperceptibly. Although his heartbeat was still uncontrollably fast, his breathing became slightly faster, and his eyes were shining with uncontrollable hope, all of this could not hide the indescribable gloominess in his body.
When I think about meeting the girl who makes me... to be precise, a third of my dreams, hearing her voice and seeing her face, Mo Mo Tan simply couldn't control the joy that rapidly expanded in his chest.
Correspondingly, this joy and this mood will also cause him countless times of harm.
To put it more like a stream of consciousness, they were bloody wounds that he had dug out on his heart with his own hands.
The pain was so heavy that I could barely breathe.
“Sorry, I seem to have said the wrong thing.”
As a person who is extremely sensitive and good at capturing the mood of others, although he is ugly but not blind, Tom naturally It is impossible not to see the change in Mo Tan. Although he does not know the specific reason, as an older man who has lived for nearly a hundred years and has seen countless pairs of pigs running around despite never being in love, this is a very rich experience. The ascetic, whose skin was too dazzling but whose soul was quite interesting, immediately discovered the problem, and after a brief pause, he tentatively asked: "Priest Black Van, if you don't mind, can you..."
< br>"No."
Mo Tan's answer was calm and cold, so blunt that even he was shocked.
For Hei Fan, whose personality has always been "absolutely neutral" in the game of Innocence, this is the first time he has spoken to someone in this tone since he put on this vest.
He is still a person who seems to care about himself no matter how he looks at it.
[I'm sorry, Senior Tom, I didn't mean to offend, it's just...]
This sentence went around in Mo Tan's mind, but it was regrettable to say He was burned out a second before he came out, and was turned into ashes by the flame called depression in his heart.
Thankfully, Tom did not think about asking the black priest in front of him to apologize for his rudeness. After being choked coldly, he shrugged and said with some nostalgia. : "Haha, your reaction reminds me of an old friend, young man. Although I have never felt that you two have any similarities, I have to admit that you and I remember a certain moment a few seconds ago. He is exactly the same.”
"Your...old friend?"
Trying to cover up his previous gaffe with honorifics, Mo Tan was happy to talk to Old Tom about something else, anything, as long as it was not between him and Yu Chen thing.
"That's right, old friend."
The ascetic's tone was very nostalgic. Like an ordinary old man, he shrank his neck and chuckled in the cool and humid evening breeze. Said: "Many years ago, I said something similar to him, asking him to tell me the troubles he couldn't hide under his handsome face with a playful smile. Guess what happened?"
Based on the previous article, Mo Tan very cleverly speculated: "He rejected you very rudely?"
"Ah, yes, but we have a good relationship, so there is nothing rude about it. Just as I didn't mind your anger just now that was not deliberately directed at me, I didn't reject that old friend's offer back then. Take it seriously.”
Old Tom. He laughed and easily exposed the unintentional mistake of the junior in front of him. He smiled and said: "So I continued to inquire about the details and pestered him to tell me what was on his mind. Haha, if it were you, Pastor Heifan, if I continue to ask you relentlessly, will you What should I do?"
Mo Tan opened his mouth: "I..."
"He beat me up"
Old Tom didn't let Mo Tan say anything. After finishing, he just said the explosive content calmly, shrugged and said: "I was I was still young and had almost no power to fight back in front of my friend who was much older than me. Within a few minutes, I was defeated by the Six-layer Holy Word and kicked to the ground. Then he smiled at me and asked me, Still want to know? ', guess what I said at that time?"
Mo Tan blinked and chose the more likely possibility based on the context: "You said you wanted to?"
"No, I said I didn't want to."
Tom made a If it is not coded, it will scare the intelligent undead creatures to death, which is the grimace of the real ghost. He smiled dryly and said: "I know that guy very well. If you want to If I said he wanted to, he would definitely beat me up again, so he immediately put away his curiosity and went to do what he had to do."
Mo Tan laughed dumbly, feeling that this person was suffering. The title "Shujo" sounds very stereotyped, but the old-timer who is special in every sense is very interesting.
But within a few seconds, his smile was frozen on his face by this humor.
Because Tom then turned to Mo Tan and asked seriously: "So, Pastor Hei Fan, do you think you can beat me?"
Mo Tan:? ? ?
What international joke are you kidding? His strength on paper is not yet high-level, and his real strength is not as good as his strength on paper. How could he possibly defeat the man in front of him who is almost ugly except for his appearance? A boss who has no shortcomings and whose magical attainments are even higher than Xia Lian's? !
"What are you..."
After being frozen for almost half a minute, Mo Tan finally came back to his senses and then asked in surprise and uncertainty to the mosaic in front of him: "What do you mean? ”
"I regret it very much."
Tom sighed softly, looked up at the stars in the night sky, his tone was full of bitterness: "I regret it until now, I don't know how many times, I feel it in my heart I vowed that if I could do it over again, even if I was beaten to death by that friend, I would force him to tell him what was on his mind. Even if I couldn't help him, it would still be better than letting that person bear so much on his own... But I was very Clearly, no matter how much I regret or swear, time cannot be turned back. Regret is still regret."
Mo Tan was silent, because he had already well understood what Old Tom wanted to convey.
"So, I have regretted it once, and I don't want to regret it a second time, especially since you can't beat me."
Old Tom smiled slyly and said: " Just think of it as the willfulness of an old man. If possible, I hope I can listen to your troubles. ”
Mo Tan took a deep look at the mosaic in front of him and said calmly: "You are deceiving yourself. Even if I do have troubles, even if I tell you about my troubles, the regrets of the past cannot be made up for."
"Yes, and it's very rude."
Old Tom nodded slightly and said calmly: "But if there is even a little bit of possibility to help you...or His Highness Wangyu If so, it will be worth it."
"Have you guessed this step..."
Mo Tan sighed, his eyes full of numbness and exhaustion, and said with a dry smile: "Explain it in advance. "I won't thank you, Lord Ascetic." Old Tom touched his chin without a beard and said cheerfully: "Just don't blame me for being unreasonable."
"I'm already complaining."
Mo Tan rolled his eyes, sat cross-legged on the ground, and after a while he said slowly: "Okay, to put it simply, There is something wrong between me and Yu... Wangyu, something that even the goddess of dawn cannot solve."
[Gan! 】
The female voice that sounded sacred but not majestic echoed in Mo Tan's ears for half a second, but the latter turned a deaf ear.
Old Tom raised his eyebrows and did not bother with the implicit disrespect for the goddess in the other party's words. He just smiled and asked: "What is the nature of the problem?"
"The nature of the problem is very serious."< br>
Mo Tan gave an answer with zero information.
However...
“Let me guess.”
Old Tom, who was standing with his hands behind his back, looked at Mo Tan's back that was not thin but extremely desolate, and said lightly: "You... or you now, the problems you face cannot be solved through strength, money, faith or other external forces. It can be solved."
Mo Tan didn't look back, but curled his lips noncommittally, because the other party's so-called 'guessing' just now was a complete interpretation of his own words.
“Your emotions may not have wavered, and may even be firmer than ever before, but they can only stop in front of a gap that exists between you and His Highness Wangyu. There is a bottomless abyss in front of you, and there is no retreat behind you. "
Tom continued his 'guessing', his voice neither fast nor slow.
Mo Tan, who was sitting on the ground with his chin in his hands, stared intently.
"Don't you deny it?"
Tom showed a smile that was not very good-looking, and sighed softly: "Perhaps, the obstacle in front of you is not something else, but something destined to be unable to be overcome. Anything changes or goes against, so it becomes an unsolvable problem."
Mo Tan suddenly turned his head and looked at the mosaic with confusion in his eyes: "How do you... "
"I don't know. Those were all guesses."
Tom shrugged and said with a smile: "Of course, it can't be said that there is no reference object."
Mo Tan, who didn't know what to say and had no interest in gossiping, nodded slightly and fell into silence again.
"Then, I might as well guess again."
Tom walked to Mo Tan and sat down, looking at the shimmering Jinhui River tributary in the distance, very casually He asked: "Wangyu may have noticed it, but with You are different, she doesn’t know what the obstacle is in front of you two, right?”
“Maybe.”
Mo Tan moved away uncomfortably. He stared at his knees and muttered softly.
"Then let's go forward."
Tom patted Mo Tan on the shoulder and said something very incomprehensible.
Mo Tan also gave the same inexplicable reaction: "Huh?"
"Being so troubled by a person proves that you can't let him go no matter what."
< br>Tom spread his hands and said nonchalantly: "In that case, just keep walking. What lies ahead is a chasm or an abyss. Let's wait until we fall."
< br>
Mo Tan:? ? ?
“It’s very unreasonable, right? Or is it very naive?”
Tom laughed, shook his head and said: “It’s normal. After all, I have never had any experience in this field. It is a bit difficult to say that the analysis is coherent, but in many cases, most of the principles in this world have the same goal."
Mo Tanqian laughed: "Then tell me about the similarities between love and cooking. , different paths lead to the same goal.”
“Perhaps they all need a lot of adjustments?”
Tom blinked, and then returned to the topic: "If we simplify things, you will find that there are undoubtedly only two endings, that is, you end up together, or you don't get together. There is no other choice. ."
Mo Tan twitched his lips to show that he was not stupid.
"Escape is the most regrettable way, and the regret may not be only for one person."
When he said this, the dark eyes of Old Tom could not be seen clearly. There was a flash of anger, and he paused for a long time before continuing: "Confess your concerns and face difficulties together. If you can If so, I think you would have done this a long time ago... So, just keep going like this. Maybe the result will not be good, but it is better than two people regretting together for who knows how long. What's more, if you just walk on, things will turn around. Appeared?”
Mo Tan was slightly stunned: “What do you mean?”
"I don't know. I'm just talking nonsense to you based on my experience in practicing magic."
Old Tom stood up and gradually merged with the light of the stars falling on the earth. The figure turned from solid to weak, disappearing as if evaporating, leaving only a faint good night.
"Inexplicable..."
Mo Tan rubbed his nose, stood up, turned around and walked towards his tent: "If you know it's nonsense, don't talk about this kind of thing in the first place. .”
……
"However, thank you."
...
"It's not that I don't understand the principle that the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge."
...
"It's just that even if there is a bridge hole, it will just 'naturally sink' if placed on me..."
