Chapter 838 Darkness
Why?
Not only Feng Shu discovered something was wrong, Hongmeng was also confused, "Mengmeng, I won't leave you after independence. Didn't you agree before? We have always been good friends, and we are friends for a long time. I will be independent sooner or later, right? Even if you encounter difficulties after independence, you will be by my side, and you will still help me, right? There is no need to be so angry and sad."
"Don't mention the word "independent" before your strength is recognized by me, otherwise I will take you back immediately and let you keep it in secret for hundreds of years."
"Mengmeng, this is unfair. You have said before that Feng Chuyi made you independent very early. No matter what you want to do, he will not stop you. No matter what the final result is, he will let you try to solve it yourself. Even if his help will be better, he will endure it. He would rather let you make mistakes, and constantly correct them from the mistakes, and finally get the lessons you deserve. It can be said that you have become independent under a hundred years old. I have long..."
As if he realized something, Hongmeng's voice stopped abruptly, and then he entered the small world without saying a word.
Mengmeng was still floating in the air, and her breath was extremely dark.
Feng Shu also stood still and didn't speak, just looked at it silently.
"Don't let it go in and out without my permission in the future."
"It's really not small. While we're all by its side, let it let go of its hands and explore, it's better than it will go on its own in the future."
"You don't understand. Humans are different from beast races, and they are different from ordinary beast races. This is not that simple thing."
"You are not from the same breed, how do you know what it needs to grow and what it doesn't need?"
Her doubts made Mengmeng's breath even more obscure.
"I know. I don't want to regret it when something happens in the future. There is no need to discuss this."
"You always have to tell us why. Children must learn to walk stumblingly from falling. Only when they walk steadily can they start to learn to run and jump. Only when they can run and jump can they have the opportunity to learn to fly.
Everything is gradual. If you don’t give it the chance to make mistakes, how can it grow up as it wishes? If Hongmeng is still young, then no matter how strict the protection is, it is natural. If Hongmeng is injured, or the defects in some aspects are particularly obvious, then no matter how strict the rules are, it is understandable. But now it is obviously not the case."
"You don't understand."
"If I don't understand, just teach me. There must be my teacher in the three-person walk. There will always be some things you are good at, but I have no experience at all."
"You have gone too far."
"Even if you have much less experience than you, Mengmeng, I dare say that there must be some places where you are not as good as mine."
"Hmph, you are full of shortcomings. What can you compare to?"
"Oh, for example, I have three biological children, but you don't have any. I have truly realized what my mood is like as a parent, but you are not. Even if you have been raising Hongmeng for many years, you are not its parents."
Mengmeng thought about it and realized that the parents she said meant to be parents.
"Are you really from the same planet as Feng Chuyi? Sometimes he would smile and say that he was a child without a father or mother when he was very young."
"Well, it's very likely. You haven't told me why."
Feng Shu admitted that she sometimes fell into a stubborn state, for example, at this moment, she insisted on Mengmeng giving a reasonable explanation.
"I know I am not strong enough, but Mengmeng, as your friend and partner, I want you to know that I am not a person without a conscience. Your current state is very worried."
Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, and was awkward by her sudden statement, "Why are you so pretentious? I said it's okay, but I just don't want to let Hongmeng suffer. It's not yet opens its eyes. Even if it has strength and experience is not rich enough, it is still very dangerous. This world is different from when I was a child. Although it used to be strong, people's hearts are not as broken as they are now.
At that time, a very small number of people would fight for and kill regardless of secular morality. There were even fewer shameless people among the strong, because before they could reach the top stage, those hateful guys were tacitly blocked from the peak by everyone. A few people with corrupt character could break through. Even if they broke through, they would start to learn to pretend to be grandchildren and unblatantly cause great damage to avoid siege by other strong people.
It’s different now. Many people now have no legal concept or moral code at all. Very, very many people live on their own, very selfish, and do not consider other people’s feelings at all. It’s okay to just ignore others, but what’s more serious is mutual struggle, trampling on each other, hurting each other, and full of murderous intentions, as if there is no lower limit at all.
I have heard and seen too many evil deeds. Even though I have never left the Feng family, I can still see this obvious change from the crowds coming and going. The Feng family is a big family in the inner region with a long history, but even if the style is still upright, it still cannot stop the invasion of these trends. There is no problem at the root, but a small part of the flowers and leaves are still corroded.
The Feng family, which strictly regulates themselves, is like this, and most other aristocratic families are no different. And those families outside the aristocratic families are even more so. The inner domain is like this, and the outer domain is probably not much inferior. The world is getting worse, which is what it is today.
In fact, the civilization we are in now has indeed come to chaos. Now it is time to wait for the storm to come. Whether it is the darkness before dawn or the eternal night is still unknown."
Feng Shu didn't expect that Mengmeng would say such a long paragraph, but she sighed deeply after the end, just like Hongmeng commented on her before, and her tone contained two words - I'm old.
"Maybe we can think about it the other way around. It is precisely because the world is declining now that we should let go earlier and let Hongmeng grow rapidly in making mistakes. It has that heart, so we just watch from the side, wouldn't it be fine?"
"Humans are different from beasts. The so-called independence of human beings is actually a transition from being determined by their own decisions with the friendly help of relatives and friends. However, the beasts have completely borne the consequences of all their words and deeds from the day they are independent. If others cannot interfere, they will be regarded as provocation or even invasion."
Feng Shu blinked, "That's for strangers, but we are companions. Will it still treat it like this?"
“Same.”
"Then Mengmeng, you have been independent for a long time. Can't I interfere with anything? I don't even have the opportunity to make suggestions? Not to mention help or something, the possibility of trying to overcome difficulties with you?"
Mengmeng answered quickly, "No, these are two different things."
"Why are they two different things? If they are two different things, that means I can give you suggestions or not stand by. Instead, they will take action when it is time to take action, and you won't dislike me for me to meddle in other people's business when I help?"
"Independence does not mean not accepting your advice and help, it is just up to me to decide whether I need advice and help, what degree of acceptance is to accept, which node starts, and which stage must end."
Feng Shu raised his eyebrows, "Where are you not independent?"
"Like Hongmeng's current situation, it has no way to judge the situation and master changes well. If you don't understand anything, how can you know whether you should accept help? When will you accept help, what level of help can you accept, and which node you have to stop this behavior? It doesn't know anything."
Mengmeng was not very patient.
"If you don't give it a chance to start, how do you know whether it can judge? Even if it is indeed lacking experience now, as it starts and makes mistakes, it will definitely correct it and accumulate experience and lessons, and will naturally grow rapidly into the person you expect to make wise judgments."
“It’s not human.”
"Well, be the friend you're looking forward to."
"It's not so much a friend, but a junior. I have always regarded it as a cub. One is that it was originally a cub, and the other is that when I started raising it, it was very, very small, very weak, and so weak that it would die immediately without my help. I have never seen it, and I don't know how much effort and effort I have spent to pull it back from the brink of death. You won't understand how weak it is. Don't look at it now, it looks lively and healthy, it used to be a sick person."
Mengmeng seems to be trapped in distant memories.
"I don't know how weak it is. Hongmeng is anxious but has a personal experience."
Mengmeng hummed after hearing this, "Do you think it can chatter and say it is independent as it is now? It is so weak that it doesn't even have the instinct to eat. Every day I pour food and water in it, which is even weaker than when you human babies were born."
Feng Shu was stunned, not even instinctive reaction, so wouldn’t he die without external help?
"Are all its races like this? Or is it just too weak?"
"Don't ask me, I don't know either. If I knew, I wouldn't have to work so hard. According to its inheritance and memory, they all survived alone, and it was impossible for two to exist at the same time at the same time."
"How could there be offspring?"
Mengmeng despised her again, "So you guys are really too weak, don't even have basic common sense, and they are just talking nonsense about independence."
"Even if Junlin, they cannot have this basic common sense. You can't say that they are not independent just because of this?"
Her counterattack was very powerful, and Mengmeng didn't say anything.
"Mengmeng, I support Hongmeng's idea. Letting it start living independently under our noses is not a bad thing. If there are any consequences it cannot bear, we can all lend a helping hand in time."
"With this permission, it will not ask for help. Even if I want to help it, without its consent, I cannot easily interfere."
"Hongmeng is an understanding guy, and it will definitely be willing. Don't look at it clamoring for independence, it actually understands that you are doing it for its own good."
"Understanding does not mean doing it. Why do you have to fall into the dangerous place that you can bypass? There is no need to make mistakes and accumulate so-called lessons. Wasting time is a waste, it is not worth it, and it shouldn't start from the beginning."
"Anyway, you are the longevity tribe. For us humans, you are like an immortal body that will not die. Why are you reluctant to let go of that little time? Sometimes making mistakes is also wealth and an indispensable experience."
Her words attracted Mengmeng's fierce reaction.
"According to what you said, is it an indispensable life experience to be killed by that man before? Such mistakes are also your wealth? Don't be funny!"
Feng Shu frowned.
"Mengmeng, are you deliberately angering me or making a point? Take my death in my previous life as an example. Is this an insignificant act for you? For you, I am someone who can be treated as you please?"
"What I said is not nice, but it is the truth. Without this example, you will not understand how wrong what you said just now. Experience is wealth. Even if it is a terrible experience, terrible mistakes are all wealth. This idea is a foolish thing."
Its emotions were very excited, but its face showed a dark meaning again, and Feng Shu felt suspicious.
"Have you made such a mistake that led to the death of an important partner?"
Her words hit the heart.
Mengmeng became stiff in an instant.
Feng Shu looked at it silently for a long time before Mengmeng fell back on her shoulder weakly.
"No one in the Feng family knows that Feng Chuyi actually had a relationship back then. The woman he liked had also given birth to two children."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"He has been traveling with them. Because he was still young and he was not very strong at that time, and knew that his words were not very important in the family, so he simply didn't go back.
That woman was an ordinary person, her strength was worse than Feng Chuyi, and she had no vision. She only thought that he came from an ordinary family like her. After following him, she always wanted to get married. However, Feng Chuyi liked her, but she did not love her. Considering the reality, he had no idea of getting married early at that time. The woman liked him very much. Although she felt wronged, she still did not break up with him. She even lived with him for twenty years, and gave birth to two children, one man and one woman."
Feng Shu raised her eyebrows, and she had a premonition that the point was coming, "What about?"
"Feng Chuyi was young and energetic back then. Although he had a good temper, he would really be cold-hearted with others for several years and never coaxed each other.
Originally, that woman had a child and everything was enough. She knew that there were no other women around Feng Chuyi and did not abandon her and her children, so she did not have the idea of getting married again. Although they were not married, and the people in the family didn't even know that she and her children existed, she was still satisfied in those years. I relied on being his companion and kept asking for trouble for that woman. Especially after her two children were born, she obviously received more attention from Feng Chuyi, and I felt very uncomfortable.
Then I made a mistake.”
Its body shivered slightly.
Feng Shu raised his hand and patted it on the back.
"It's over, Mengmeng."
"No, you don't understand."
That was its first killing in the true sense.
