The current situation was hard-won and must not be destroyed by one's sudden arrogance and complacency.

not to mention……

I'm not a good person myself, am I?

Lin Wei smiled bitterly at himself, and he really wanted to do something else.

He turned all his resentment and arrogance into a puff of smoke and exhaled it. He stroked the spear in his hand, tried to calm his heart, then apologized to the Herrscher and continued,

"I am not here to destroy you or humiliate you, Ling. From the beginning to the end, my goal has not changed. I just want to find a way to survive, that's all."

"You are a Herrscher, the Herrscher of Corrosion who destroyed civilization 50,000 years ago. You should know that humans will not let you continue to exist. You are unwilling to die like this, so you hide in the ruins of Changkong City and around Qianyu Academy and wait for an opportunity."

"You are a Herrscher who has been stranded here for 50,000 years, and I am a passer-by who wandered from outside the world and couldn't leave. We both want to find a way out for ourselves, don't we? We are not enemies in the first place."

"...Heh, Lin Wei, do you think you know me well?"

The Herrer continued to sneer. She was not a fool, and knew that Lin Wei was offering her an olive branch to ease the atmosphere, but she did not want to accept it.

How dare you think of trying to establish a relationship with the lawyer?

Lin Wei smiled casually and didn't mind the nail.

He was an unwelcome guest and had just humiliated the other party and seriously hurt the self-esteem of the Herr, so it was normal for him to be turned away a few times.

"It's just that I feel for them and have some empathy."

Lin Wei took out a new, clean piece of clothing from his closet, went to the bathroom to change his bloody clothes, wiped off the remaining "battle marks" on his body, tried to ease the atmosphere little by little, smiled and continued.

"And if you really didn't understand, Ling, you wouldn't have suffered such a big loss at my hands!"

"you!"

The Herrscher was so angry that he was speechless.

Okay, you’re awesome, you’re great, I can’t argue with you!

Once you compromise, there will be a second time, a third time, until it becomes commonplace.

Lin Wei smiled slightly. As long as the meaning was conveyed, he didn't want to appear aggressive.

Although it sounds a bit absurd for a human to be aggressive towards a Herrscher...

"Actually, what you said is not wrong. I really didn't know you before, Ling." Lin Wei then denied himself, and continued to explain before the Herrscher spoke.

"After all, we were so far apart before! Across the distance of worlds and dimensions, I only got to know a fragment of your life through a distant story. You see, this is the first time we have a real face-to-face conversation."

"But I think this is enough. Understanding is nothing more than empathy. After all, life is full of joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, separation, and reunion. Love and hate are nothing more than these things, even across a distant world. Because I saw my own shadow in you, I remembered you at the beginning; and because of this, I have the opportunity today."

At this point, Lin Wei suddenly smiled. Her smile was pure and contained no malice, but she was unabashedly happy.

"Ling, if you hadn't always been thinking about your sister, how could you have fallen into the trap of a despicable person like me?"

"Look, you have such abundant emotions and your weaknesses can be easily caught by others. You are obviously a human being like me!"

The Herrscher's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly remembered that Lin Wei seemed to always call her "Ling" instead of "Hersher", and she felt that this guy was even more hateful.

"You guy..."

Can you please shut up? It's so annoying!

"I'm already halfway through this journey that I invited you to join me on. I've already deeply felt your true soul, which is ugly, but also incredibly beautiful. Now, I think I'm qualified to say that I understand you."

Just like the bitter tea that Yaesakura drank, Lin Wei also experienced her inner world through the resentful curse that the Herrscher had previously instilled in him.

That was a child who had been hurt by this world, sadly begging for forgiveness from the world that had hurt him.

She was extremely humble and obedient, but no one responded. Only endless imprisonment and bottomless darkness were constantly eating away at her battered soul.

Fifty thousand years, what a long time.

In the end, sadness turned into hatred, loneliness turned into resentment, and the child who once begged for forgiveness from the world became completely and resolutely hostile to this unfair world.

Even so, when she heard the news about her sister from Lin Wei, she still decided to give herself and the world another chance, which was why Lin Wei used his despicable method to seize her weakness and coerce her.

This is the tenderness and kindness engraved deep in this child's soul, which cannot be erased even by fifty thousand years of destruction.

Lin Wei sensed the beauty of Ling and therefore felt that he had an obligation to protect her gentleness and kindness.

Because she is so precious.

Because he couldn't forgive the world either!

"Beautiful lady, could you please come with me for the other half of the journey?"

Lin Wei stood up, sincerely extended his hand, and with his other hand, he put the spear behind his back, bowed slightly, and invited Ling again.

"It has been a long time since I have re-examined my inner self. Since this is a rare opportunity, can I invite you to fully appreciate the past experiences of a despicable person like me?"

"Because I also have a parting gift, and I want to use it as a blessing for this chance meeting."

The Herrer narrowed his eyes and stared at him for a long time, not understanding what Lin Wei was up to. He wanted to get angry, but couldn't, because Lin Wei's expression was so sincere and genuine that it even made him feel ashamed.

He snorted coldly and walked towards the door without saying a word.

Seeing this, Lin Wei laughed and followed.

She has such a weird personality. If she could go back to her original appearance, she would be cute, right?

Lin Wei thought with some regret.

Chapter 29: Journey Down Memory Lane

“We are forced to step onto an unexpected stage and perform an unexpected script. But we still hope to reach the ending we want.”

As soon as he started to move, Lin Wei's heart suddenly moved. He couldn't help but stop and talk to himself in a low voice.

The Herrer stopped and looked back at him, wanting to know what Lin Wei was up to.

Lin Wei smiled and didn't explain. He was really just talking to himself this time.

He stepped forward, passed the Herrscher, reached for the door handle, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open - since he was reviewing his own life, he should be the one to open it.

Then, Lin Wei never looked back from beginning to end, even though he might never have the chance to come back.

Now that you have said goodbye, don't linger on. Let go of the past and give your future self freedom.

Lin Wei has always been very free and easy. But this time, it seems that he has to dig out his not-so-long but heavy life from the depths of his memory and sort it out again?

It seems, not bad?

Lin Wei was actually quite looking forward to this journey, because he himself didn't know if he would still be as indifferent as he is now when he relives those forgotten or unforgettable, painful, sad or desperate pasts again?

do not know.

Precisely because he didn't know, Lin Wei felt that this trip would be more rewarding.

After all, Lin Wei firmly believed that since they had not defeated me before, they would not be defeated by it now.

If that’s the case, then what is there to be afraid of?

Lin Wei tightly grasped the spear in his hand, which he had never thrown away. He felt a little nervous, but more excited.

What's more, I was a tour guide on this trip, and I had invited a beautiful 50000-year-old girl who I had just met, with whom I had just opened up, who was shy and unwilling to show her true face.

That's even more worth looking forward to!

"I say, can't you change your image? At least let me tell your front and back."

Lin Wei said to the dark figure beside him, who was indistinguishable as male or female. To be honest, if I hadn't been paying attention to her, I would have known which direction her face was facing. Otherwise, with this modeling level, if it was someone I just met, I would have to lower my head to look at her toes before I could tell the front and back.

The Herrer glanced at him, snorted and sneered, and the black smoke was released and retracted, and he turned into Lin Wei again, looking down at him with a condescending expression.

"...Okay, as long as you are happy."

Lin Wei was speechless. Who was he showing off to? Didn’t he know that the war was already over?

Forget it, don't argue with her.

What a pity, I would have liked to see her pink hair with red highlights, it really looks pretty.

"Ling, I know you've looked through my memories before. But memories are just records of objective information, like pages of a book, photos, films, or simply lines of text in a story. I also want to see these things, so I want to use the convenience of this consciousness space and your hand to give me a chance to re-examine myself."

"I've never had the experience of watching my own memories before. Haha, of course, this is strange for a visitor from another world like me. It's my first time in the city, so don't be surprised."

The Herrscher was too lazy to pay attention to him, and didn't even want to watch his performance, so he just pretended not to hear him.

"I have no experience in this kind of thing. Ling, you are more professional, so I'd like to hear your opinion. Do you think it's better to watch it backwards or forwards? Or should you select some clips that left a deep impression on you and edit them out?"

Are you looking for film and television post production here? !

The Herrscher couldn't hold it in any longer and couldn't help but glare.

Who is this?

With a wave of his hand, the part of the information flow belonging to Lin Wei in the consciousness space was separated, forming a magnificent corridor, magnificent but abstract, with various information, sounds, colors, and images intertwined, making it difficult to distinguish. Lin Wei tried to reach out and grab a green leaf, and suddenly a complete image was pulled out of this complexity - it was the memory of his childhood when he went to the countryside for summer vacation, and the children in the same village took him to climb a tree, but he accidentally fell from the tree.

That leaf was what the young Lin Wei hurriedly grabbed when he was about to fall. Unfortunately, it failed to hold Lin Wei back and was instead torn to pieces by the frightened Lin Wei.

Then, there was a thud. It hurt so much! Xiao Lin Wei in the picture cried out in pain. Lin Wei, who grabbed the leaf again outside the picture, also recalled the sharp pain of the sudden fall and grimaced in pain.

“What a wonderful experience.”

Lin Wei was reluctant to put down the leaf in his hand. He continued to look at it. Looking at his innocent childhood self, Lin Wei couldn't help but become a little dazed.

He had even forgotten that he had such a carefree childhood.

It was just too short, like an unreal dream.

Now that he was back in this dream, Lin Wei suddenly felt that he didn't want to wake up and just wanted to keep watching.

In the picture, Xiao Lin Wei was in so much pain that he couldn't stand up. He rolled over on the grass under the tree and cried loudly.

The neighbor brother on the tree quickly jumped down to check if he was injured, and then tried to coax Xiao Lin Wei clumsily.

Grandma heard the noise in the distance and came over. When she saw what happened, she picked up Lin Wei and brushed the dirt and grass off his body, while scolding him for being disobedient and running around, saying that he deserved to fall and get hurt.

The memory was so clear that Lin Wei outside the picture could even smell the earthy smell and the fragrance of grass coming from his body. That was the smell of memory.

But the picture suddenly stopped.

Lin Wei came to his senses and found that he had crushed the leaves in his hand unconsciously. The memory scene fell back into the chaotic ocean of memory and could never be found again.

He felt lost, but couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then suddenly laughed softly, and then it turned into a crazy low laugh, which made people shudder.

The Herr looked at him and said nothing.

Because she clearly saw that the moment the grandma appeared in her memory, a long-suppressed madness and murderous intent suddenly appeared in Lin Wei's body.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that Lin Wei was somewhat pleasing to the eye.

Because that madness did not belong to the naive child in memory, but to the real Lin Wei beside him.

The demon that had always been inside him.

Lin Wei's laughter became more and more crazy and ostentatious. He laughed until he was almost short of breath. He leaned on the spear, bent over and continued to laugh wantonly.

As he laughed, his voice gradually became lower. The Herrscher vaguely saw that the devil in Lin Wei's heart had quieted down again, and felt a little disappointed.

Lin Wei stood up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then burst out laughing again.

"It turned out to be such a wonderful experience! I have forgotten what I was like before. It turns out that I could be so stupid. It's true. Ling, you can laugh at me as you like in the future."

Ling didn't say anything. She always felt that she would see many good scenes similar to the one just now.

When I was simply browsing my memories before, I would never have thought that I would be able to see such an interesting show.

Lin Wei sighed, calmed down his complicated emotions, and looked around at all the memories around him. In addition to those mixed memories,

There were more of a sky and an ocean made up of faded black and white fragments, which occupied more than 90% of the space in the entire memory palace. Lin Wei tried to reach out and touch them, but they were still black and white fragments, like a few short frames of a silent movie with no beginning or end.

Come to think of it, the memories of 90% of our life don’t have much meaning in themselves.

“What an interesting place.”

After what just happened, Lin Wei was suddenly full of anticipation for his journey down memory lane.

He gave a dangerous smile, an expression that would definitely scare a child.

The Herrscher's face, which was exactly the same as Lin Wei's, also showed a more dangerous smile, and she was also looking forward to the good show that was to come.

Well, her smile can directly scare children to tears.
