Tianchen gritted his teeth and said: "Yesterday, someone came from their side. They talked secretly with my father all night. Then soon, my father left without saying goodbye."
Tian Lan hesitated and said: "'They'... are they from my mother's side?"
He didn't know much about his mother because he had never met her. He only heard that her mother died in childbirth when giving birth to him. From then on, the family never mentioned the mistress of the family. Occasionally, others asked about her. His father would always speak harshly and even get into violent fights. Part of the reason why Tian Lingsha's family made many enemies was because of this. It was also why there were many troubles in the capital.
He knew that although his father never mentioned it to him, the eyes he looked at him from time to time were so cold. It was like looking at the enemy who killed his wife. It made him very scared. For the victorious general who was revered as a god by the people all over the country. The only person in the world who can touch him is his only wife. Therefore, even if Tianlan doesn't know the cause and effect, he can guess the general idea from just a few words.
However, no matter what that person's attitude is, he is his father. He does not want anything to happen to his father.
"Brother, father, he will be fine..."
He stepped forward to comfort Tianchen. Unexpectedly, Tianchen suddenly turned around with a ferocious expression. He was furious, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour. Tianlan was so frightened that he backed away repeatedly. The look in his eyes was so unfamiliar. If it weren't for that familiar appearance, he would simply not believe it. This man is his biological brother.
No. It shouldn't be like this. A sense of subversion suddenly arose in his heart. It seemed like something was wrong...
Tianchen roared: "It's you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't lose my beloved mother. If it weren't for you, my father wouldn't abandon me."
"No. Brother, how could you..." For a moment, Tianlan felt that his mind went blank and seemed to be filled with countless thoughts, leaving him at a loss.
"It's all you. Why were you born? Why was it not you who died but my mother?"
Tianchen's face twisted and he roared at him, his voice getting louder and louder.
"Damn it. If it weren't for you, our family would still be happy now. How could it be like this? Why don't you die... It's the biggest mistake in the world for you to live..."
Every time he said a word, Tianlan's face became paler. The aggressive words were like sharp blades, piercing into his chest. It was a pain that was stronger than suffocation.
He widened his eyes in disbelief and said, "Brother, it turns out that you have always looked at me like this in your heart."
Tianchen's eyes burned with the flames of hatred. He said: "That's right. If I had known this, I should have tried every means to prevent you from being born. Your birth would only bring disaster to us."
He took out the dagger from his arms and threw it on the ground. He said: "Is it better for me to do it or for you to do it yourself?"
Tianlan lowered his head and looked at the dagger that rolled to his feet. His eyes were extremely complicated. He leaned down and slowly picked up the dagger. Tianchen's body temperature still remained on the dagger. It felt so real in his hand.
He stared blankly at the dagger in his hand. The sharp tip could easily pierce his thin body. He couldn't help but think of every inch of time he spent with Tianchen. Whether it was laughter or sadness, it seemed that everything had changed. Vague and out of reach.
Seeing that he had no next move, Tianchen added fuel to the fire and said, "Humph. Don't you understand yet? You shouldn't exist. It would be better for everyone without you."
Tianlan's hand trembled. He looked up and looked at Tianchen's ruthless features. His heart felt as uncomfortable as a huge boulder weighing on him. He raised his hand and put the dagger on his neck. He closed his eyes quietly.
As long as he moved his wrist slightly, the sharp blade would slit his carotid artery.
Seeing this, Tianchen smiled strangely, as if waiting for him to do it himself. But at this time, Tianlan smiled abnormally and said: "Haha. It's really not like acting." As he said that, he put down his arm and held the dagger away. Throwing it far away, there was a "ding dong" sound. The dagger fell to the ground and hit several pieces of wood.
Looking at him with a frown, Tianchen said gloomily: "What do you mean? Are you waiting for me to take action?"
Tian Lan shook his head, stretched out two fingers and said, "You are wrong about two things."
"Tianchen" raised his eyebrows and waited silently for his next words.
"First, you shouldn't make a fuss about my memory. My strongest resistance is the unforgettable memories in my mind that can shake my mind. If I couldn't bear it, I would have died countless times. How come it's your turn to do anything?"
He said with a smile. His tone of course was completely different from that of a ten-year-old child. That confident demeanor was somewhat similar to his real appearance.
"Second, your biggest mistake is that you should not have tampered with my memories. My brother... would never say what he just said. He is a competent brother and would never say these words to hurt me. You really don’t understand him very well.”
"Tianchen" still looked gloomy. He neither confirmed nor denied what he said.
"I admit it. You are indeed very powerful. You can actually peek into my heart to this extent."
Tianlan lowered his eyes and said softly, yes. These are his memories, at least before Tianchen turned around. However, the following words are not out of thin air. He has always known that Tianchen loves him. But who can guarantee Tianchen Don't you feel any jealousy in your heart? He has indeed ruined Tianchen's family. The early death of his mother and the disappearance of his father have caused Tianchen to lose the love of his parents. He also had to face the pressure of his family in advance. In fact, he has always felt sorry for him in his heart. Tianchen has been feeling guilty since he was a child. This uneasiness and guilt was exploited by the wall of inquiry, and this situation developed.
Jie Tianchen's eyes flashed fiercely and he said: "You want to kill your brother with your own hands. Hmph. You are so ambitious. You don't even plan to let go of your last relative."
He chuckled softly and said: "If it were another person, he might really have fallen into your trap. Unfortunately, I... I have never been confused about my own existence. I can only talk about your problem..."
The corners of his mouth raised and he closed his eyes gently. In an instant, a strong wind blew up, overturning the whole house. At the same time, the fake Tianchen also turned into smoke in the strong wind.
"Wrong choice." He slowly uttered the last three words until the surrounding scenery gradually disappeared.
He opened his eyes again and found that he was in a gray-black forest. Needless to say, this was naturally the Yuling Forest.
He smiled self-deprecatingly. There was a bit of loneliness and helplessness in his eyes. He said to himself: "I'm still not cruel enough. I actually closed my eyes and didn't want to see it. Could it be that even today, I still don't dare to face it?"
At this time, the leaves not far away shook for a while. He shouted warily: "Who is it..."
Several black figures fell to the ground from behind the forest leaves. They seemed to be three people. They were obscured by the leaves. Their bodies were so tattered that it was difficult to distinguish them.
He felt that these three people were somewhat familiar. He took two steps forward. One of them raised his head. He recognized it almost immediately: "Ye Yi...how could it be you? And they are Tao'er and Nangong Kui."
Ye Yi climbed up while holding on to the tree trunk. His eyes were not good. When he saw Tian Lan, he felt like he was looking at a formidable enemy. The rusty sword in his hand whistled into the wind, drawing a semicircular arc. The tip of the sword was actually pointed at Tian Lan.
"Ye Yi..." Tianlan took a few steps back, looking confused for some reason.
Sparks of hatred burst out in Ye Yi's eyes. He said bitterly: "It's all you. It's all you who insists on going to Yuling Forest. You've known for a long time that this place is full of dangers, right? You've known for a long time that we are likely to die here. .But you still let us come here to die, right?”
Tianlan involuntarily took two steps back and said, "What are you talking about? I..."
Ye Yi pressed forward step by step and said, "I still want to make excuses. How dare you say that you don't know the dangers of Yuling Forest. You disregard the lives of our companions for your own selfish desires."
Tao'er and Nangong Kui floated over at some point. They stared with a pair of white eyes. Their faces were covered with blood. They were like ghosts. They were very scary. And their voices were as profound and terrifying as if they came from Jiuyou. Very shocking.
"Why do you want to frame us like this..."
"How can you be so cruel and disregard our life and death?"
"Why don't you die."
Tian Lan retreated again, until his back hit the tree trunk behind him. There was no way to retreat.
A trace of cold sweat broke out on his head. The three of them looked too miserable. He had never seen it before. No, maybe, he thought about it. After all, he had been to Yuling Forest before. Naturally, he knew that with their strength, they wanted to cross safely. The forest is not easy. Unfortunately, he still chose this way.
The almost ghost-like appearance of the three of them shocked him deeply. He could feel the strong heartbeat almost shattering his body. Is this true? Is this reality? He died because of his choice. friends around me.
His selfishness. In order not to pass through the border, in order to protect the integrity of the family, he put his friends in danger.
No, it won't. How can such a thing happen?
"Your survival is a nightmare disaster for us."
"I really regret knowing you. Disappear. Disappear quickly."
Every word was the last thing he wanted to hear. But at this time, his ears were extremely sensitive. He could even hear the hateful tone in their words.
Tianlan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She suppressed her fluctuating emotions and said, "You are wrong. Even if you let me see the scene I least want to see, it still won't shake my mind." Although he said As he said this, the blood from the corner of his mouth showed that his heart was not calm at this time. At least not as calm as he said.
"First of all, our route is not decided by me. It is a joint decision made by everyone. It is not something I can control alone." He explained rationally, as if to calm his mind.
"Secondly, my friends are not so weak that they will definitely die if they enter the Yuling Forest. In terms of risks, I, who was blind at the time, should be the one in the most dangerous situation."
"And...if they are really upset about this kind of thing...then I can only say that I have seen the wrong person."
He opened his eyes suddenly. All the confusion and hesitation in his eyes had disappeared. Only firm belief remained.
"I don't think I need to be responsible for everything. Things that I shouldn't be responsible for, even if you impose them on me, can't make me question it. If you talk about knots, I only have confusion about the future. Confusion about existence. I have never doubted myself standing here. And I absolutely cannot doubt it. I will not be confused by you, so I’d better give up."
He stretched out his fingers. His fingertips were immediately wrapped in cyan airflow. More and more airflows converged towards his fingers.
The wind was so strong that it blew the hem of his clothes and made a squeaking sound. The three ghost-like people couldn't help but retreat and looked at him in surprise.
"Tianlan, you want to kill people but you can't silence them..." As of now, the phantom created by Wenxin Wall is still trapped and fighting.
Tianlan frowned slightly. His fingertips glowed with green light. The gentle blue air flow suddenly turned into a sharp blade. In the swirl of the vortex, it turned into a terrifying sharp-edged whirlwind. In less than a second, the whirlwind completely engulfed the three people. Not a wisp of smoke escaped.
The surroundings suddenly darkened. It was completely dark. Nothing could be seen.
He lowered his hands feebly and said with a wry smile: "It must be done now."
