Tomorrow's Ark, raised by children

"That's not true." Zhang Yubai had a half-smile, "But you can do wrong things."

"...Hey, speaking of it, we are just people in the painting, so how do we know the identity of the owner of this painting?" Mr. Cooking Umbrella sighed and took Li's place to answer, "Please Hero... understand more."

"I just want to ask, why... let such an existence do evil in her world."

What Zhang Yubai was referring to was obviously those walking corpses that caused a lot of trouble last night.

"Probably because of kindness." Li's facial muscles twitched a few times, and he said stiffly, "The owner of the painting should be a kind person, just like you."

"Those people...their belief is the river god." Mr. Cooking Umbrella explained, "And they are actually a group of infected people who have suffered a lot...they were tortured in the process of avoiding the disaster, and finally ...Choose faith to preserve the last bit of precious humanity. It's just... even if this is the case, they will eventually collapse in faith."

"There is always a lot of suffering on this land, so what is their suffering like?" Kelsey said, taking a sip of tea.

"It's the same as the suffering experienced by many infected people," Mr. Zhuo Umbrella replied, "This land uses the most cruel means to give ore disease to those who are already suffering. It is because they always fight... so fate Such favors, wanting to see them crumble... as it turns out, fate has done it."

"This group of people has been reduced to walking dead. I don't know what is driving them. However, even at this point, their river god still hasn't given up on them... That river god is probably a kind-hearted existence, It's just that, in today's world, many kindnesses will be distorted due to various reasons, and the kindness of the river god is no exception."

"Faith... yes, it is faith, the beginning of everything. At this time, ecstasy... and 'transformation' have become the only options for salvation. The river god seems to want to gather all beliefs and souls together, To form a world similar to the heaven and earth in this painting, so that the people in it can enjoy eternal happiness. Although it is distorted, it is also a kind of... kindness for the believers."

"Right now, the Hejia Village, which is the territory of the River God, is in a certain level of competition with our Poshan Town..."

"For some reason, the owner of this picture scroll didn't stop it too much. Maybe it's because of someone's one-sided words."

"Do people in the painting also have three souls and six souls?" Zuo Xuanliao asked.

"Even the objects painted by the painter still have their form. If the object has no soul, it has no form." Mr. Zhuan said, "The artist has endowed these things with a predetermined soul, not much, but enough."

"Speaking of suffering...I have seen a lot," Li sighed shortly. "When I was young, I was running around to avoid disasters. I saw with my own eyes those victims lying on the ground, stretching out their hands at passers-by. I stretched out my longing hands, but... just for a moment, those withered hands could no longer be lifted."

"For the sake of suffering, people will always try their best to redeem." Qin Siyi's voice was dull. "No matter what method is used, people who are still selfish in their bones will waste others' salvation for their own salvation."

"Salvation...salvation is just an empty term." Zhang Yubai shook his head.

"Illusion is certainly illusory, just like the moon in the water... But since people who yearn for light cannot reach the moon in the sky, they will definitely do everything to catch the moon in the water." Qin Siyi's tone became urgent, "Even if the moths are flying into the flames, , even if it is... sinking into the water and never getting up again. Even if it is labeled as ignorant and ignorant, it is considered to be... doing evil."

"Suffering... is always selfish, and so are people... The total amount of redemption is there, and people will always go to the moon for what they want to save, right?"

"The conscience of commitment can swallow any existence in the face of those who want to make amends."

"It's better to be honest." Zhang Yubai drank the tea in his cup. "What's more...selfishness is the source of human suffering. For such a problem, perhaps it is not 'grey', but 'black and white' in people's hearts."

"Or maybe, truth and falsehood are subjective judgments of people." Mr. Zhu Usan seemed to refute, but he didn't seem to refute authentically.

"But the facts don't matter... what matters is who deserves to die and who doesn't."

"..." Kelsey remained silent.

"My little monk thinks that no matter what kind of suffering it is, just follow your heart." The novice interrupted at this time.

Originally, Zuo Xuanliao and the little novice seemed to have reached a consensus, and they stared at each other without saying anything.

Now that the little monk had spoken, Zuo Xuanliao became more and more embarrassed.

"Clang-dang-!"

The bell rang again.

Li's complexion changed.

"Why are you here again? Now it's Bai——"

"It's Mo Ling."

The little novice jumped up.

"Go and save people!"

—

Qin Siyi, novice, and the protagonist's views on suffering actually reflect their various purposes.

In addition, audit Big Brother save me.

Volume 76: Different routes lead to the same goal: Chapter 73 Chapter [-]: A woman does not give way to a man

"Gah! Gaah!"

It was a slightly cute shape, like a water beast, but it had a bloody mouth and a terrifying saliva... an evil beast.

Behind it, there are several monsters with the same shape as it.

They attacked the residents who were shrouded in daylight.

A woman was accidentally thrown down, and a large gash glistening with blood immediately appeared on her arm.

"no, do not want!"

She uttered a cry of terror.

At the same time, more monsters like this appeared in other places in Poshan Town.

There are quite a few of them, one after another.

At the same time, there are also dog-like existences with curved backs, their speed is very fast, and their four legs seem to be flying.

Buildings were demolished, candles and other flames ignited combustibles, and they burned more violently.

In an instant, the disaster spread to every corner of the town.

Some of the people who ran away were unlucky. They were either surrounded and had nowhere to escape, and what was more, they were thrown down at the moment when they thought they could escape... Some people accidentally fell and sat on the ground. Looking at the monsters surrounding him on the ground, he gritted his teeth, but his heart was full of complaints about his carelessness.

A strong sense of regret enveloped such a group of people, but they... could only face the feeling of suffocation, in a trance, and their brains hadn't even had time to accept it all...

"Uncle Yichuan, take my younger brother!"

That is undoubtedly a very qualified brother.

There was no trace of youthfulness on his still immature face.

This Li Boli boy picked up his younger brother, who couldn't even speak, and stuffed it to the burly man with thick hooves, then turned around, picked up a bamboo pole, and looked righteous and resolute to die.

"Are you kidding...Little bastard, if you want to fight, I will fight them!" The plump-hoofed man suddenly pulled the boy behind him, and then grabbed the bamboo pole from the boy's hand, "Run over there! In such a situation, you still want to fight them? *Elegant Yan Guo dialect* What happened to these beasts today, so many came here at once! I said earlier that I would gather people to go up the mountain and wipe them all out. Why is it——ah. ...."

"Today is so weird, the west side is not black..."

As he spoke, he stuffed the boy's younger brother back into his arms, and then swung the bamboo pole vigorously.

The bamboo pole was hit on the head of a monster, and it was broken directly.

"Kar...Kar!" The monster screamed in pain, but it was not injured.

"Hey..." Yi Chuan picked up the two children, squeezed the monster away with his body, ignored the bites, and then threw the two of them out. He stopped himself and squeezed the bites and scratches with his body. Own...monster.

The man with strong bones did not utter a cry, but deliberately pretended to have the upper hand.And the older brother hesitated again and again with tears in his eyes, and finally ran away.

It's just that he didn't expect that, just after running for a while, he unexpectedly encountered three monsters again.

There is no escape now...

Why is fate so unfair.

The boy tightly hugged his young and ignorant brother, who was even babbling, sobbing in pain.

This group of monsters... In my memory, they are a group of wild beasts that will do evil on the other side of the mountain from time to time, and will attack the town from time to time.

Juveniles seem to have lost their parents because of them.

Their lives, in the face of power like monsters, are like weak hemp sticks, and they will fall down when the wind blows gently.

The monster jumped at him.

—even... at some point... even if there is no wind, they will fall by themselves.

why?

Why does even this young child in my arms have to meet the opposite end in its infancy?

The boy covered his younger brother with his body, and then, feeling the suffocation brought by the increasingly thick falling shadow, he closed his eyes.

But... the shadow disappeared in the next moment.

"Are you okay?"

Open your eyes, in front of you is a Phidia woman with a high ponytail...

"I, I'm fine."

The woman shook her legs, looked at the other monsters around who were shocked, and sighed.

"The skin is so thick..."

"thanks, thanks!"

"Thank you."

Looking back, the boy saw another boy—a little older than himself.

"Let's go." That person was Zuo Xuanliao.He patted the boy on the shoulder and smiled.

"well!"

"It's strange, Miss Qin, he...isn't afraid of you? Why...The storyteller just said yesterday that if he meets Phaedia—"

"Brother Xuan Liao, think about it carefully. The town that was destroyed yesterday and the residents whose souls were taken away are all well now? Didn't you hear what they said just now? This is the world in the painting... .You only noticed that the people here are all drawn, but you don’t want to think about it, how can the drawn people...have a 'memory'?" Qin Siyi explained in a low voice, "Instead In other words, everything here will be restarted every time it is damaged, memory? They only have the memory given to them by the painter when they were painted."

"They don't count as people."

"Then... is there any point in saving such a person?"

Zuo Xuanliao fell into a momentary confusion.

It's not that he had the question of "should he save people" at this moment, he just didn't understand the meaning.

"Of course there is." Qin Siyi stretched her posture—this is the posture of a martial arts practitioner, "When I was young, my grandfather taught me...well, that is also a family motto...Although I am embarrassed, but the specific I forgot the content."

"But... I still remember the general meaning. It means... to extend a helping hand to all those who are in trouble." Phidia smiled heartily, "This is the meaning."

"There are only the two of us at this end, so let's fight on our own? Speaking of which, the skill of defending soldiers you performed last night is really beautiful!"

"it is good!"

Zuo Xuanliao lowered his figure.

At the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he saw that gallant Phaedia raised his leg towards the attacking monster, and kicked it with the ground as the axis. The monster hit the wall, and a big crater was created .

At the same time, the monster turned into ink and dispersed.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Siyi grabbed a dog-like monster with one hand, kneed it, and forcibly tore it to pieces.

Fist, palm, elbow, leg...

Dazed for a moment, Zuo Xuanliao looked at the short knife used for combat in his hand, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.

"It's really...women don't let their eyebrows..."

Volume Two: Different Routes to the Same Goal: Chapter 77 Chapter 74: Shattering the Darkness with Thunder

"Actually, I've always been curious, Candle Bearer, where did your spell...the authority to 'cast' come from?"

The doctor tightened his clothes, raised his eyebrows and looked at the Candle Bearer who could create defensive facilities to protect the residents with a wave of his hand.

"You should know everything, don't you? Questions like this... need to be asked?"

The candle holder laughed dryly, but did not answer.

"If you don't want to answer, I can understand." The doctor just responded lightly, without even changing his expression.

It's different from Zuo Xuanliao and Qin Siyi's situation... It seems that the two of them are in greater trouble.

The black-colored python-like monster with a blue border stabbed at it from various tricky angles, and the gray bird's spider-like eyes burst out with a strange red light, attacking from the sky... a burly figure above the head The irritable monster with black horns rushed forward waving its huge fists.

"It's not that I don't want to answer..." Zhang Yubai said with emotion, "Do you still remember that folding fan? Well...it's also that old friend."

"Old friend..." Kelsey's eyes were still so flat, "This old man really means a lot to you."

"That's not true." Zhang Yubai nodded, showing a look of nostalgia. "I am still looking forward to the day when I will reunite with her... It is precisely because of this expectation and other wishes that I struggle to survive the dangers again and again and become more and more beautiful. powerful."

"Ah."

Kelsey did not comment further.

On the battlefield shrouded in violent wind, the two of them are like idlers sitting in a teahouse drinking new tea and chatting, without the slightest nervousness and worry, and leisurely like uncles walking around.

"Need my help?"
