Volume Five, Chapter 70, Nameless Old Lady(1/2)

"Don't you believe in the doctrine of suffering?"

I looked at the kind and kind old lady in front of me and asked softly.

"To be honest, I don't like it very much, but if someone pursues it, I won't object. After all, if it's not for life, if it's not forced by life, who would go back to do such strange things?"

While talking, the old lady in front of me pulled me into a small stone house. The house was not big, roughly about forty square meters.

The house is not big, but it is still complete.

Small but complete.

How should I put it, although it is very shabby, it still has a sense of warmth.

This sense of warmth gives people a feeling of hometown.

“It’s so cozy.”

I couldn't help but sigh. I glanced at the old lady beside me and spoke softly.

"As long as you like it. To me, this is actually a very ordinary house, but if you like it, I'm already very happy."

At this time, the old lady said with a smile, and while talking, she chose the food prepared for me.

"It's just that this house is not big. Don't you think it's small when you live here?"

With the help of the old lady, I sat on a small wooden stool. In front of me was a somewhat worn wooden table that looked like it had been used for a long time.

"It's okay, I'm an old woman, that's enough for me."

The old lady said with a smile.

"where is your family?"

I asked with some confusion: "Where do they live?"

"I am an old lady who lives alone. My sons have all gone to work in other places, and my old man died early. So, I can satisfy my own basic necessities, food, housing and transportation."

Having said this, the old lady smiled very kindly, as if she was not surprised that I asked this question.

"And how do you get food?"

I asked softly.

"You guys are really stupid. Think about it, I am an old lady and my sons go out to work. Even if they are not filial, they will still send me a little money. I will work as a female worker and it will be over.

I am completely satisfied with my life.”

After saying that, two huge loaves of bread were placed in front of me. It seemed that they had been there for two or three days.

"Eat it, I just made it a few days ago."

The old lady in front of me smiled very gently.

"Thank you very much."

I nodded gratefully, stretched out my hand gently, exerted a little force on my wrist, and the bread in front of me was easily divided into two halves.

"You're welcome, eat quickly."

The gray-haired old lady slowly sat in front of me and looked at me gently.

"I have a question."

I cleverly raised my head and asked softly: "Do you eat this every day?"

"Yeah, if it doesn't work, just soak it in oats or something more."

The old lady in front of me was sitting in front of me, and with the help of the faint light outside the window, she began to adjust her work.

"All right."

Not knowing what to say, I gently swallowed the bread in my hand.

His expression also became a little unbearable.

This is the suffering in the world, but this is also true optimism and joy in suffering.

I was speechless while eating. As I finished eating the two loaves of bread, I burped happily.

"Old lady, thank you for your hospitality. Is there any water?"

I asked softly, and while speaking, I carefully observed the surroundings of the house.

"Well, there is water."

The old lady said as she brought me a bowl of water from the jar.

"thanks."

I stretched out my hand and drank the water brought by the old lady in one gulp without any hesitation.

"By the way, this is for you."

Suddenly, the old lady stretched out her hand and gave me the red brooch in her arms. It could still be clearly seen that there was a ruby ​​inlaid on the red brooch.

"What are you..."

Feeling a little confused, I asked.

"I'll give this to you. I know that you are not an ordinary person, and I also know that you have your own ideas."

Suddenly, the old lady smiled: "I am the remnant of the superpowers who were not completely wiped out. I am a person who has clairvoyance and can observe what the other person is thinking."

"you..."

When I heard this sentence, I couldn't help but widen my eyes with a look of astonishment on my face.

"Don't be surprised. That's the kind of person I am. No one knows my identity except you. Don't worry, I don't have any ill intentions in giving you the red brooch. What I want to do is very simple. I only have one request."

While talking, the old lady helped me sit on the bench: "I ask you to change the world. I know you can do it. I know you want to do it. Go ahead and do it. I will support you."

"Then what is this red brooch?"

Puzzled, I spoke softly.

"The red brooch is a blessing gift given to me by an old friend of mine. As long as I keep it with me, it can save your life at a critical moment. But at the same time, the red brooch will break. You need it more than I do now.

I leave this thing to you, feel free to go."

After saying that, the old lady in front of her smiled, picked up the water bowl, and took a sip of water.

"Thank you very much."

I nodded very gratefully, with a serious look on my face: "Don't worry, I will change everything. I will definitely change this unfair world."

"Well, I leave it to you."

When the old lady said this, she smiled happily.

"boom."

Suddenly, the door was pushed open forcefully, and a man entered the house with heavy steps.

Most of his body is made of wood. It seems that his body has been damaged by many battles, but this still does not affect his hope of living. Therefore, his body

There are many right legs and left arms made of wood, and even some brackets to assist the movement of the body.

"you are?"

The first time I saw this scene, I stood up directly, showing a cautious expression, and at the same time, my body was still protecting the old lady in front of me.

"Don't be nervous, he is not a bad person."

Seeing my nervous look, the old lady stood up quickly and spoke to me.

"who is he?"

I looked at the man in front of me, who was staggering towards me, and couldn't help but ask cautiously.

"He is my friend. He can hear the voice of my soul, so he just came over just now."

When the old lady said this, she quickly found a relatively high wooden seat with some handles specially installed on it to prevent the man in front of her from sitting unsteadily.

"Thank you

.”

A hoarse voice came out slowly from his mouth, and it seemed that his body had become a little slow and stiff now.

"You're welcome."

The old lady smiled and sighed, and slowly positioned the man in front of her properly.

"You are the person who can change this world, right?"

The man with messy hair in front of him rubbed his greasy hair and spoke seriously.

"Yes, not bad."

I nodded and admitted unceremoniously.

"This thing, I'll give it to you. It was left behind by my ancestors and is something from the earth. However, this thing has been transformed by countless generations. Its meaning and ability are no longer the same.

It’s a pity that I can’t use this card anymore.”
