The Spirit World

Chapter 54 Farewell
I, Chang Yufeng, fail at everything I do.

Ten years ago, I lived a failed life, and ten years later I was still a failure. I was only ten years old, and ten years later, I was still only ten years old.

I don't want to think about the orphanage anymore. It's all in the past. Let time slowly forget it. I can't remember why I bullied those kids who had the same experience as me. Maybe it was because of my own ugliness, or because of my impotent anger, or because I was just a broken kid, irritable or irritable, and that little girl with asthma, none of this matters anymore. Because that world has nothing to do with me, and it will never be related to me again in my lifetime.

Who hasn’t made a few mistakes in childhood?
Whether I was relying on the power of others or bullying the weak, it is all in the past.

What a failed brat.

I have lived for twenty years. The first ten years are completely different from the last ten years. My adoptive parents are like my biological parents to me. If there is really destiny in this world, how much does this destiny not want me to become a bad guy? Even God would not like that kind of lonely and stinky child. What a failure!

Now that I think about it, I was a complete failure in that world, and in this world, I was also a complete failure.

So what if he was good at magic or swordsmanship? They were all a mess. A complete failure. Even a small basic move took a whole month to master.

In Wenti County, in this other world, it was no different from the real world. Instead, it was even more dangerous and terrifying.

A terrifying beast breaks into the village, and the powerless people can only flee and wait for rescue. If they are targeted by monsters, they will die if they are not strong enough. If they are infected by evil spirit, the whole world will become their enemy, and the only fate waiting for them is to be killed.

Why did I come to this different world? Was it really for my parents? Now that I think about it, it’s probably not all that. I just wanted to escape, I just wanted to leave that world.

That nightmarish sense of guilt, that cough that seems to pull my heart out of my body, that loneliness that makes me feel lost.

No one can understand me, no one can listen to my voice. I don't even have the ability to escape from that small orphanage. I want to escape, but I'm afraid there is nowhere to escape. After all, a child without a father or a mother is the same wherever he is, no matter how good you are to him. He is so happy and lovable one second, but quiet the next second, and loneliness will fill his heart. The little boy doesn't understand why he is the only one without parents to pick him up, he doesn't understand why he is the only one without parents to hug him, he doesn't understand, he is left with only himself and endless loneliness.

Maybe he had already been disappointed by those seemingly false greetings, maybe he had already let go of others' indifference, maybe he had already been tired of crying in countless dark nights.

Who can know? Who can remember?

His original appearance was well-behaved and cute.

Ten years passed, and then another ten years, and everything began to change.

A warm family, a responsible but sometimes unreliable father, a mother who is good at both cooking and cooking, virtuous but sometimes very strict, a playful and cute but sometimes very annoying sister, just like falling from the sky, came to my side. Before I was two years old, I had no way to refuse such a family. I couldn't go anywhere, even if that annoying sister spit milk on me. After that, I had no way to leave. Their true love was like a flame burning my heart and dispelling the ice in my heart. I really thank them. I gradually walked out of the shadow of the cough. I knew that I was wrong and I knew how to be grateful. I often made them worry whether I would go back on time for dinner, but I knew that no matter how late I came back, they would wait for me.

I really feel guilty. How could I deserve to have such a family? I am really a failure!
As always, I failed. I had eyes that could see the elements, but I had no way of learning how to use them. My swordsmanship studies were not very effective. I didn't even have the ability to protect myself in this dangerous world. Fortunately, I survived safely until today. However, the feeling of failure was lingering in my heart.

I am too weak, not as strong as Lin'er. I heard that she went through a long journey to find me. I was surprised that she could come to this other world. The feeling of indebtedness came back to me again. She is still like a mystery. She said that I was the only person she knew in this other world. Am I the same?
I have only known a few people since I was a child, and I can count them on my fingers. In this different world, we are all in the same boat. The difference is that she gained powerful power after coming to the different world, while I only know a little magic. Farmhouse magic.

In fact, I am the young master of the Ning family. I am not surprised at all, because I was rescued from a mysterious place by a rabbit-eared boy, together with the huge eagle burning with blazing flames. I experienced the ordeal of life and death as soon as I came to this world. If I am not careful, I will die. I also learned the identity of the young master from the rabbit-eared boy, but I don’t have the ability to delve into it.

Now the jade pendant tied around his waist is back in his hand. What secrets does it contain? Is it just a token that guides him to Bailing Mountain?
"jiu" the sound of fireworks exploding in the distance, "pop", the colorful ones are like flowers blooming in the sky. The flowers of fire, like those in the world, are fleeting, leaving people with the most beautiful side.

I sat on the steps. The crowd was crowded at the foot of the mountain. The snack street there was full of disciples from the mountain. I picked a seat next to Erica. Lin'er also sat there. Zhao Zhaoli stood on a tree next to the steps, holding his sword. Chunxi saw us coming and handed over some snacks from the foot of the mountain. Everyone ate while watching the fireworks in the distance.

I took a skewer of barbecue. Actually, I think the food in this world really lacks some flavor, but it is still delicious. Erica pointed at the blooming fireworks and asked us to look at them. There are no such things in Wenti County. The child was so happy that he couldn't get enough of watching them.

I looked at Lin'er, and she was looking at me. Erica was between us. I didn't know what she was thinking. I had no way to guess what she was thinking. Sometimes she always looked up at the sky, and no one knew what she was thinking. She was not close to Zhaozhao and Chunxi. Just like she said, I was the only failure she knew. It was really hard to imagine that she was once a little goddess loved by everyone. Would it be best if she didn't come into this world?
I don't know, and I don't dare to ask her what she thinks.

She saw that I was looking at her and smiled at me. Her eyes and eyebrows were really beautiful. I smiled at her too. She touched the corner of her mouth with her finger. I coughed and turned my head to wipe off the crumbs. Now I could feel the red and burning sensation at the base of my ears. Erica looked at me and quickly wiped her mouth clean.

Fireworks bloomed one after another, and even a hundred flowers bloomed, and the whole sky was filled with such fireworks. We also need to look up at the top of the mountain. The fireworks full of joy, under the bright moonlight, are like a painting across the Milky Way, gorgeous but fleeting.

Later I learned that Zhaozhao and Chunxi were going down the mountain today, and that was the last time we saw them. Although we communicated through magic in the days that followed, we never met again.

I thought today was just an ordinary farewell on an extraordinary day.

I foolishly told them that I would definitely learn something when they came back. One of them ignored me, and the other hugged me tightly. I could feel Chun Xi's tears, but it was too late. I thought this was just a short farewell, so I smiled and waved to them.

In the street with fireworks in the distance, we said goodbye on the steps at the top of the mountain. This was the last step of the thousand-foot ladder. We waved happily on the mountain, and the two of them slowly went down the mountain.

Later I asked Chunxi why she left on such a day.

She said that if we leave early tomorrow morning, we might never see each other again... Wouldn't it be wonderful to leave with the best memories?

I didn't say anything, just looked at her, and I told her that I had never eaten barbecue as delicious as that day.

She smiled, held Zhao Zhao in her arms and looked at me. Tears fell on Zhao Zhao's struggling face. She smiled and said nothing more.

Grow up, young man!
