Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 869 Inheritance
"Awu, Xiaozao, I'm sorry, I failed to fulfill my responsibility as a mother..."

At night, the woman looked at the two children sleeping on the bed tenderly, and kept muttering these words in her mouth.

Then, in the evening of that day, the mother turned her back on the siblings and went on the road silently weeping.

The scene changed, and the woman stood alone on the edge of the crater, facing the raging magma at the bottom of her feet, her face was full of determination.

"Mother!"

The childish voice suddenly came from a distance, and the woman turned her head in surprise. When she saw the little figure staggering towards her, the tears she had suppressed for a long time finally burst out uncontrollably.

"Mother, don't you want me? Huh..."

The cries of the child kept coming, which made the woman even more heartbroken.He kept murmuring 'sorry' and 'sorry' in his mouth.

In the end, perhaps because she was afraid that she would lose the determination she had made so hard, she chose to turn her head away, took a deep breath, and jumped into the magma in one step.

Hot magma splashed high, and the entire mirror surface was covered by heat waves.

The picture in the mirror stopped abruptly, and then the original mirror surface was restored, and there was no more scene.

But at this moment, the siblings, who had seen the truth of the past with their own eyes, had already cried together.They seem to be able to feel the heartache and despair of their mother at the end.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo mother..."

In the uncontrollable tears of the siblings, Xiaozuo glanced at the younger brother who kept wiping away his tears, and finally stopped crying first.

"Hey, Wu!"

Xiao Zuo suddenly asked: "You want to go to the outside world, right?"

"what?"

Ah Wu froze for a moment, choked up his head and looked up, met his sister's serious eyes, and immediately waved his hands in a panic: "No, no, I...I..."

Xiaozao interrupted him directly, and asked: "Tell the truth! You must want to go to the outside world, right? Because for so many years, you have been following the trail of your mother. When everyone gave up , only you, still believe that she is still alive, only you are constantly looking for the way to the outside world!"

"No, I, I just..."

"Since this is the case, you should follow Brother Kong Zhe, follow them out of here, and fulfill your dream!"

"Ugh?"

Ah Wu was stunned. In the past, my sister was always the same as the village chief, trying her best to dissuade him from his unrealistic ideas, and wanted him to live in Rocky with peace of mind.However, at this moment, he didn't expect that his sister was actually encouraging him to leave?

For a moment, Ah Wu only felt his heart beating rapidly, and his head became a little unconscious.

It can no longer tell whether this is the excitement of going to the outside world or the fear of the outside world.

Ah Wu swallowed his saliva, and met his sister's serious gaze. He immediately became timid and shook his head again and again: "No, I can't do it, the outside world... I'm just a fox, how can a coward like me be in the world?" Survival outside..."

"Awu!"

Xiaozao interrupted him loudly, showing the majesty of her sister, and said very seriously: "Don't hide from your heart, I know, you have always been the bravest child, you have the same courage as your mother The one who is really a coward is actually me!"

Xiao Zuo laughed at herself, with a sad tone: "Over the years, I have been persuading you to give up, but in fact it is only because I am afraid to face it. I am the coward who only dares to shrink in this little Rocky."

Xiaozao immediately raised her head and looked at A Wu seriously: "But you are different, you have the courage you inherited from your mother, so if your mother fails, you must walk the path she should go!"

"I...but, in this case...uh..."

Ah Wu said in a panic, he really longed for the outside world, but when he thought of leaving here, he would never see his sister, the village chief, or his little friends who grew up together. Suddenly, I felt a burst of great sadness, and I couldn't help the tears from the corners of my eyes.

"Awu!"

Xiaozao interrupted him loudly, and grabbed his shoulder: "Boys, don't cry all the time, or you will make others look down on you."

Hearing this, Ah Wu eagerly wanted to wipe away all the tears, but the tears flowed more and more.

Looking at him, Xiaozao also felt her eyes flushed, and her voice was crying, but she still held back, insisted on shaking her head and said: "What are you still dawdling about, Brother Kong Zhe and the others must still be waiting for you , go, don’t be tied down by the feelings here, you have to be like a mother, bravely pursue your own path! Go and see how vast the real world is!”

"Woooo..."

Under the repeated urging of his sister, Ah Wu finally got up, and with tears all over his face, he ran towards the exit.

He didn't dare to look back, because he knew that once he saw his sister's face again, he might not be able to make up his mind anymore, just like when his mother saw him standing on the edge of the cliff, he finally understood now that at that time How much courage it took for my mother to look away from him.

Xiaozao stared blankly at Ah Wu's rapidly leaving figure, with sadness and reluctance in his eyes, but more, he was still relieved.

The little slug who only dared to hide behind her back then has finally become a brave young man, doing things that no Rocky could do.

A Wu's figure quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor, but Xiao Zuo's eyes were still fixed on that corner.

After a while, she let out a long sigh and finally came back to her senses.

"Mother, when Ah Wu grows up, I will definitely help you fulfill your unfulfilled wish, and I will inherit the responsibility of staying here..."

Xiaozao looked at the Fox God ornaments neatly placed beside her, and slowly stretched out her hand towards it.

……

In the brightly lit interrogation room, the Hall Master, who was covered in black robes, stood silently at the door with his hands behind his back, without saying a word.

And on the round table behind her, sat the man in black robe and the maiden king, both of them were just like the hall master, just sitting quietly, no one had the intention of speaking.

Soon after Kong Zhe and the others left, medical staff came in, helped the Maid Queen untie her body, and at the same time surrounded her and began to treat her injuries.

Under the power of a healing person, the Virgo King's broken arm quickly recovered, and the blood on his body was also cleaned up.

After the treatment was completed, the Virgo King rubbed his newborn right hand, his eyes wandered unconsciously between the Hall Master and the man in black, he frowned, and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to speak first.

The three of them remained silent for a while, and the hall master finally turned around and looked at the man in black.

"Just now, you let them go on purpose!"

The black-robed man remained silent, didn't even have any intention of moving, and was still sitting there like a wooden sculpture.

After a long time, the man in black turned his head and finally had a reaction. The Maiden King watched her slowly take off the hood on her head, revealing an unusually young face.

——A woman with the same appearance as Xue Feifei.

No matter how many times she looked at them, the Virgo King felt that these two people were too similar, no matter how they looked at them, they were all carved out of the same mold, otherwise she would not have made such a low-level mistake of confusing them in the morning.

"No, I have tried my best, but the result can only be said to be God's will."

The woman replied lightly.

"no?"

The hall master was noncommittal, but just sneered, and suddenly walked a few steps closer to the man in black robe, watching the Maiden King beside him feel nervous.

Fortunately, the palace master didn't intend to do anything, but just warned the woman coldly: "Don't forget, who rescued you back then! Never betray me!"

"..."

A chill suddenly emanated from the palace master's body. At this time, she truly showed the aura of an epic powerhouse. The Maiden King subconsciously held her breath, not daring to take a breath.

"I will never forget..."

As the woman said, she got up from her chair and walked out of the gate.

"If nothing else, I'm going to work!"

After leaving this sentence, the woman went straight out of the room, but the palace master did not stop her.

In the interrogation room, only the Palace Master and the Virgo King were left.

The lord of the hall still stood without saying a word. The maiden king rolled his eyes and said suddenly, "Master, since you don't want to let them go, do you want me to go..."

"No need."

The Maiden King was interrupted by the Palace Master just after speaking, she sighed slightly, and said softly: "I'll give him half an hour after talking for half an hour. No one is allowed to do anything redundant before the time is up." thing!"

The Hall Master naturally knew what the Queen of the Maid was planning, and there was a hint of warning in his tone.

"……Yes."

Although the maiden king was disappointed, he didn't dare to show it at all, so he could only bow his head and whispered a reply.

……

In the city that never sleeps, on the edge of the west city gate, there is a noisy construction site.

With the little prophet on his back, Lei Yun hurried all the way here after leaving the temple.

As the Great Elder in charge of sending and receiving tasks, Lei Yun is naturally very familiar with organizing this inn to and from Loki.

It can be said that this is the only entrance and exit for Loki to the outside world.

Ordinary members will be blindfolded when they enter and leave, and their perception will be cut off, but for a confidant like him, the truth of the post house is already known by heart, and there is no need to hide anything from him when entering and leaving here.

"Ferry man, I need to go out!"

Entering the construction site, Lei Yun directly approached the man in coir raincoat in front of a tent, and explained his purpose of coming without any nonsense.

"Big elder!"

The man in coir raincoat bowed to Lei Yun, making a hoarse and unpleasant voice.

"There are still 5 minutes until the next delivery time! Please wait a moment!"

"It's too late, this time it's an urgent task, and the Palace Master personally supervised it!"

Lei Yun seemed to have guessed what he would say, frowned slightly, turned his hand, and handed over a piece of paper.

"This is the task document!"
