Chapter 62: Going ahead, the last monthly pass in April
(The gorgeous fourth update, can you help Laobei? In the last few hours, can you give out your precious monthly tickets!)
Next, the fat man and Zhuge Xuan opened there, and I couldn't stop him. In the end, I was too lazy to persuade him, so I let the two of them practice alone there.
Fortunately, the fat man had torn to the point where he had only half his life left. In a few minutes, Zhuge Xuan had to clean up. After apologizing and promising to give the other party a few sets of famous brand clothing after going out, the fat man finally saved his life.
When the silence stopped, everyone was tired, and all they left was food, drinking water, and rest.
Peanuts took the initiative to keep the wind for us, and Fatty and I slept very peacefully. When I woke up, I saw Peanuts still sitting next to the smokeless stove and smoking. The Fatty was almost asleep, while Zhuge Xuan was far away, not knowing whether she fell asleep.
I walked to Peanut and sat down, not knowing what to say to him. When I opened my mouth, there must be a lot of problems. Now I don’t want to bother him.
After the two of them had a moment of love, I finally couldn't help it and spoke.
"What were you laughing at before?"
Peanut thought for a while and said, "I laughed at my miserable life."
"What? Your life is miserable?" I was surprised.
In a few days, he had basically learned all the way to smoke. He shook the ash and then said, "I may have to go with you later. You said, isn't my life afflicted?"
I was dissatisfied and wanted to refute it, but I found that what Peanut said was the truth. Let’s not talk about him. When I think of the things I did along the way, I never succeeded. Not only did I say that I was in trouble, but I always implicated others.
I thought that the "back" that peanuts said refers to our way out, but when I think about it, it seems wrong.
"Hey, what do you mean by saying this? What's the back?" I asked immediately.
Peanut smiled mysteriously at me, "Don't you really want to know what your father and I are doing? If there is a chance, your father and others, and me, and even more people will go to the same place at the same time, would you be willing to go together?"
"Hey, of course I do, this..."
I was thinking about whether this was possible? But when I looked at the expression of Peanuts again, I felt something was wrong.
I was so surprised that this guy never wanted to mention those things to me, why did he suddenly make such a statement again?
Seeing that I was suspicious, Peanut laughed.
"Haha, are you afraid?"
I frowned, "No, the contrast between you is too big, didn't you advise me not to interfere before? Why have you changed your mind now?"
"Maybe I've thought of it with your dad, too." Peanut said lightly.
"What do you mean?" I felt that Peanut's words were very strange.
"After all, I, like your father, don't want to make things too big, but the mess has been revealed and I can't suppress it. You are the only male member of the Yuan family and cannot escape it. It's better to let you do something you should do."
Peanut's words seemed to show that he had figured out these things, but for some reason, I still think his motive is not that simple.
This is how people are. When you don’t know anything, you try your best to find clues. But once someone says to you, “Hey, the clues are here for you.” You don’t know how to believe them.
I thought about it for a while and was not confused about this issue, and then said, "Peanut, since you have thought so, there is something I hope you can tell me."
Peanut smiled and exhaled, "Tell me."
"I don't understand what you did now at all, but what I want to know most now is, what are you and my dad doing this for? Well, what is your purpose?"
This is the most core issue I found from those complicated questions after being reminded by Fatty.
Peanut pondered for a while and whispered: "We don't want more people to know about many things, so your father will keep lying to you, and I will hide a lot of things from you. There is no way to do these things, because those things cannot be explained clearly in a few simple words. Can you understand these?"
I thought to myself that if I could understand, I wouldn't call myself Yuan Jie, but on the surface, I still nodded.
Peanut did not comment and continued: "But, among all the questions, the only one you raised, your father and I don't need to hide anything."
I don't understand what he means, and I think if I can tell me the result, then there is no need to hide other things from me.
"Speaking of this, my purpose and your father are actually different, but the ultimate purpose is the same. We... are all looking for that purpose."
I think Peanut will continue to speak, but he will stop talking here.
"Ah, it's over?" I was stunned.
Peanut nodded and smiled, "Maybe I didn't say it clearly enough. I mean, we are actually looking for the ultimate goal of these things. Daluo Feng Shui, the four-way mountain and river map, and many more things. These things have been influencing us and others since we appeared in this world. While we continue to move forward along the footsteps of those people before, we are all looking for the final reason for these things to appear.
Yuan Jie, no matter whether you believe it or not, none of you can understand everything, whether it is the result or what is happening now. You are not the only one who is troubled by doubts, but I just know more than you.
In contrast, your father may be the one who lives the most sober among people like us.”
I couldn't help but lean forward, "What do you mean?"
Peanut looked at the faint darkness in front of him, "I have a feeling that your father may have touched something. Behind his plans that I can't guess clearly, it may be that he wants to change something before the ending begins."
"ending?"
"Yes, we all have our own endings. This ending was destined very early and long ago, and no one could change it. However, your father, or the two generations of the Yuan family who started with your grandfather, seem to have been ahead."
In fact, I cannot fully understand what Peanut said. It is like listening to a gentleman who will say it so that ordinary people can understand it, but you will definitely not be able to grasp the key.
But what I can be sure of is that Peanut’s words now should be true. So I continued to ask: “Then what conflicts are there between you and my father? And why does that big girl seem to have a deep hatred for our Yuan family?”
Peanut said: "The family represented by that woman and the Yuan family are not a problem for one or two generations. If we trace the root cause, I cannot know it. These are not important to me, but the reason why that woman wishes that your Yuan family will die is actually because her father died at the hands of your grandfather."
"Ah!" I was shocked and thought to myself that this is really a ferocious revenge for killing my father?
"Of course, these are some rumors I have heard, and I cannot believe them all. But one thing is absolute." Peanut looked at me.
"What's absolute?"
"At this time now, she cannot pose a threat to your Yuan family. Although what she has done is against the trend, she cannot escape her own ending."
I stared at the peanuts and suddenly I felt that this person was a little too convinced of the "destined ending very early, very early".
Materialism teaches us that there are only probability and no destiny in the world. Therefore, I am not so keen on these things. But maybe because this is said from peanuts, I think a little bit.
After a while, Peanut said again: "Let me tell you something else."
I couldn't help but feel a little excited. I didn't expect Peanut to talk to me about these things so actively, so I put my body closer.
"Do you remember the legend about Yelang I told you in Sichuan?"
I nodded vigorously. Peanut continued, "The ship I mentioned is real. Although I am still pursuing many things, I believe that as long as we find that ship, we can see the ultimate goal."
