Taoist temple in the mountains

Chapter 191, your punishment
"Brother Song! Brother Song! What's the matter with you! Why are you so stunned?" Xie Man looked at the anxious expression on Song Dalin's expressionless eyes, turned around and yelled at Li Yun: "What are you doing to Brother Song? What!"

Li Yun, however, took his time and continued to look at Song Dalin with a calm and calm expression on his face.

After a while, the focus of Song Dalin's eyes gradually came back, but in these eyes, there was no longer the anxiety of the past, but an inexplicable tranquility instead.

"How does it feel? As a bird, as a bird you once raised in captivity." Li Yun looked at Song Dalin calmly and said, "This is your punishment. Everything you impose will be borne by yourself. For once, it's fair."

This punishment was not Li Yun's own decision, but Bai He's decision. He had just communicated with him through Xintong, and Bai He's request was to let Song Dalin experience everything he had experienced.

Fair enough, only the victim can forgive the perpetrator when the victim can still express his thoughts.
At this time, Song Dalin had completely come back to his senses, and the originally peaceful eyes began to become complicated.

"It's very uncomfortable. A bird loses its wings, just like a person's legs are cut off. All that's left is pain. This feeling of being deprived of everything is really not ordinary."

At this time, Song Dalin looked at the white crane in front of him. He was covered with scars, even the feathers on his body were in a mess. He didn't have the elegance of the white crane at all, and what he had was just a poor creature who had lost his freedom.

At this moment, Xie Man still had a puzzled look on his face, so he couldn't help but said while looking at the uncharacteristic Song Dalin.

"Brother Song, what's wrong with you, are you bewitched? You seem to be a different person?"

Song Dalin smiled helplessly. He was indeed bewitched just now. He took out his mobile phone and checked the time. Less than 2 minutes had passed. However, in these 2 minutes, he had already experienced his life again. No, once bird life.

"Big sister, don't follow me anymore." Song Dalin looked at Xie Man calmly and said.

Xieman was stunned for a moment, and said in a panic.

"Don't tell me, what's going on with you? In just a few minutes, your whole body has become abnormal. Did someone cast an evil spell on you?"

Song Dalin looked at the indifferent Li Yun, and in a sense, he was indeed hit by a spell.
To Li Yun, Song Dalin is 100% in awe.

"I'm going to be poor. It's not like what it is now. I can buy hundreds of dollars of medicine every day, and I can eat delicious food and drink spicy food every day. I can't live by myself, let alone bring you alone." Song Dalin With a complicated expression, he dropped the branch in his hand, looked at the white crane that was still licking its feathers alone, and said, "I plan to release it."

"Over the years, I have made a lot of money from it. However, I have never treated it well. Now is the time to return it to freedom. It should belong to the blue sky and white clouds, not the cage of my home."

Song Dalin recalled that nightmarish experience again, whether it was the smell of offal meat or stinky fish, he could forget it, only the feeling of being imprisoned was unforgettable, and what belonged to him every day was only a cold space, without anyone of the same kind.

taste of freedom
Song Dalin took a deep breath of fresh air, now he only has gratitude and remorse for the world.

"So, from now on, I will be an ordinary herb collector in the mountains, wandering among the mountains to dig for herbs, alas, I don't know how long I can do at this age, but it should be no problem to support myself Yes, but it’s obviously impossible to support another one.” Song Dalin said with a wry smile, relying on Baihe for these years, he has never done anything, but fortunately, he still has the experience of climbing the mountain all year round, otherwise he would lose it. Bai He doesn't even have the ability to survive.

Originally Song Dalin thought that Xie Man would resolutely turn around and leave after knowing his decision, but unexpectedly, Xie Man smiled and said.

"Old Song, do you think I'm with you just for your money?"

"Isn't it? Didn't you come to talk to me because you said you admired my secret ability?" Song Dalin recalled the time and place when the two met. On that day, Song Dalin just leaned on the white crane to gather herbs and went to the integrated market. Selling medicinal materials, and then met Xie Man, who is also a herb collector.

Unlike Song Dalin, Xie Man's medicine basket contained nothing but a few pieces of herbs, which can be said to be very miserable.

Song Dalin was very proud when she came to ask about herb collection skills.
This is the beginning of their acquaintance.

"Haha, do you really think that I fell in love with you because of money?" Xie Man shook his head helplessly, and said, "It's your self-confidence that attracts me. Of course, if you can change your temper It would be better to change it.”

Song Dalin really froze in place, didn't he follow him because of money?

Song Dalin asked himself that he didn't have any skills, at most he only had the skills of taming animals in the circus, but what he didn't expect was that...
Immediately, Song Dalin felt a little warmth in his heart.

It turned out that there were still people in this world who could treat him with sincerity.

"As for whether I have money or not, I don't care about that. I'm already old. If I find someone I like and help me, that's enough for me to live on. I don't care if I'm poor or rich."

"It turns out that there are still people who can accept me as a person."

Song Dalin smiled, from the bottom of his heart, he never thought that there are such good people in this world, so that when he looked at Xie Man's plain face, he could see a trace of inexplicable taste Come.

"thank you"

Song Dalin bowed deeply to Li Yun and Xie Man, then took out a small knife for harvesting, and cut the hemp rope in his hand. Not open.

Bai He seemed to have a feeling in his heart, just staring blankly at the hemp rope in Song Dalin's hand, which was being cut bit by bit, and he didn't cry, fight, or struggle.

Soon, with the cutting of the knife, the gap in the hemp rope became bigger and bigger, and finally, with a click, the hemp rope was finally cut, and the things that had bound Bai He for so many years were finally dissipated at this moment.

"I'm sorry, I haven't fulfilled my master's duty to treat you all these years." Song Dalin wanted to hug Baihe, but stopped. He knew that what he had done all these years was not qualified to ask for one. Embrace.

No matter how repentant you are now, you have done it after all, the damage has already been done, and it is not something that can be undone with just a few words.

"Now. You are free. You can soar in the blue sky and white clouds. You don't need to eat minced meat or stinky fish."

"Finally. I'm sorry, if there is another chance in the future, I will make it up to you."

Song Dalin bowed deeply to Baihe——

The last bit of hemp rope fell off, the white crane did not hesitate, and finally uttered a long cry at this moment.

After a long cry, the white crane spread its wings and flew into the blue sky.

this moment.
It gets a new life.
