It was raining so hard that even though we were living in an "indoor tent", we could hear some rainwater leaking through the roof. But luckily our roof was strong enough, otherwise it would have been washed away quickly.
If it breaks down, it would be unpleasant.
Since there is no stove flue or anything like that, we can't light a fire in the house, so the cold environment makes people very uncomfortable. I don't really care about small animals. This child has neither rough skin nor thick flesh, but he is very adaptable.
I put her in the sleeping bag and stuffed her into the backpack, and she fell asleep quickly. As for Baiyanghua and I, we were not sleepy at all.
"Amy, are you asleep?"
"..."
She asked softly next to me, but I didn't want to talk, so I pretended to be asleep and couldn't hear her.
"Amy~~~are you asleep?"
"..."
"Amy~ I didn't say a word to you when I was asleep~"
"..."
This girl really deserves a beating. How can she reply when she is really asleep? Are she talking in her sleep?
"Amy~~~Say something~~~"
This time she started shaking me directly. Do I want to beat her?
"What are you talking about? What did you want me to say when I was asleep? Now that I've been woken up by you, is it okay if I say I want to beat you?"
"Ah... you really fell asleep~ I thought you were pretending to sleep~"
"..."
What the hell? Why did her soft words make me feel guilty? Was it me who was wrong?
"what do you want to say in the end."
"It's nothing, I just can't sleep and want to talk to you~"
"You know how wicked you are. It's your own business to be unable to sleep, so why bother others."
"Because you are my mother~ Isn't it the mother's duty to take care of her children?"
"If you dare to call me mom again, I'll beat you until mom can't even recognize you."
"Don't say that~ Wouldn't it be nice to have a lovely daughter like me?"
"How cute are you? There are so many cute girls around me, but you are the worst one."
"Oh~ even the worst ones are still cute~~~"
"You're not angry?"
"It's not a good time to get angry in the middle of the night. You'll wake others up."
"Then I'm not a human being?"
"It doesn't count~ Aren't you a goddess~"
"..."
"Amy~"
"What."
"Do you think we can save the world?"
"I don't know, try my best."
"Don't you know a goddess?"
"I don't know, I'm just half a goddess."
"well……"
"Why are you sighing?"
"I'm thinking~~~What will the world look like if we fail to save it?"
"It's nothing more than a dead silence without a blade of grass."
"Nothing more? You said such cold-blooded words again."
"It's not cold-blooded, but helpless."
"have no choice?"
"Well, helplessness for fragile life."
"Why are you so helpless? Can't the goddess save lives? Aren't we saving lives?"
"Yanghua, have you ever thought about a question? In the first ten years of your life, why have you never seen anything related to the goddess, not even heard about it."
"Because you haven't discovered our world yet?"
"That's true, so why didn't we find it?"
"Hmm... I don't know if it's because it's too far away."
"There is no concept of distance between worlds. In fact, I don't understand how the goddess looks for the world."
"Why is that?"
"Because the goddess appeared too late."
"Are you late?"
"It's not that it's too late, it's that the goddess was born too late in this world."
"Ah? Your goddess didn't exist from eternity?"
"Yes, it destroys the three views, but it is not. The origin of all goddesses, that is, Ling Mei, she awakened her self-awareness when I was a teenager, I don't know exactly how old...
Since then, the concept of goddess has appeared in this world. Before that, there was no goddess in any world, and everything was chaotic and disorderly. There was no cause and effect, no good and evil, and no order in all events.
It's all random. No one can fight against reality, because everyone relies on reality to exist. Even those god-level civilizations that have jumped out of the world must be extremely cautious every step they take, for fear of causing trouble that they shouldn't cause and leading to annihilation...
That’s why there is so much sadness and pain in the world, so life is unsatisfactory nine out of ten times. For mortals, they have become accustomed to this setting, and they have to accept this setting. This is the helplessness of life.”
"Then why don't you wake up earlier? Actually, I don't quite understand what is going on..."
"Because the birth of Ling Mei is purely accidental, not destiny. If there is any deviation, she may continue to exist in a state of chaos. Then there will be no goddess in the world, let alone people like us who can save the world.
The power of mortals in existence is extremely weak, and very few civilizations can achieve self-save. Destruction and disappearance are the mainstream of the world. Before the birth of the goddess, the world would disappear every moment, and countless civilizations would disappear in unknown places.
Disappeared in the corner. All their culture will leave no trace, and no one knows that they once existed. Compared with this kind of thing, death is already a pretty good result, at least future generations can find the bodies of their predecessors or
Fossil... When you have a broader vision in the future, you will understand how I feel and what the goddess thinks."
"Is this why you don't care about death? Because you've seen sadder things."
"It's just part of it. I said before, I couldn't accept death just like you. Even if I had the power, I would be too cowardly to die. But after dying several times, I know that death is not as scary as I thought, because I
She is a goddess and will not be affected by the side effects of death. Yanghua, you are so afraid of death, but do you know what death is?"
"It means...all physiological and mental activities stop, and you can no longer perceive and interact with the world?"
"People are basically in this state when they are asleep. Why are you not afraid of sleeping?"
"Because you will wake up when you sleep!"
"That's right. Death itself is not terrible. What is terrible is the consequences it brings and the pain you have to endure in the process of death. If you can still live the same life after death as you did before death, will anyone still be afraid of death?
?”
"...Is this why no one in the Dream City is afraid of death?"
"Yes. In the City of Dreams, there is not much difference between dying and catching a cold. You will be fine after that, and you can live as you please. And it is our goddess who brought about this change. We have not eliminated death, but we have
It is enough to eliminate the negative effects of death. The method and process are not important, what is important is the result, that everyone can exist happily in the world, no matter in what form."
"I probably understand..."
"So Yanghua, you have to believe in me, just like you believed in me before. I am a goddess, and it is my responsibility to spread happiness. I will never do the bad things you imagine, even if it may seem like a bad thing.
"
"Well... I believe you. Now that you explain it clearly, I will believe you. I hate being ordered for no reason, so if you don't explain it clearly to me, I will doubt you..."
"It doesn't matter, I've made it clear now."
"Well... I will never doubt you again, I swear."
"Don't swear. It's unreliable. I can't even remember what I swear."
