The middle-aged man carried the skinny old woman on his back through the barren mountains. At some point, the temperature of the air continued to drop, filling the air with a strange and gloomy atmosphere.
Finally, we came to a deserted valley.
The rocks here are dead gray, with no green vegetation at all.
"Zhuzi, I'm here, put me down."
The old woman spoke.
The middle-aged man put her down carefully.
"Okay, you go back.
Live a good life with your wife and don't quarrel with her. Although she sometimes sounds mean when she speaks, she is not a bad person.
Don't blame her for asking you to send your mother here, she is thinking about you and the child."
The old woman was sent here to die despite her earnest words, but what she was thinking about was still her son's future life. She didn't want her son to have a bad life in the future because of herself.
The middle-aged man sniffed and said in a choked voice: "Mom——" The old woman stretched out her hand, touched his rough cheek, and said with a kind smile: "You are already a father, how can you still love him as much as you did when you were a child?
Crying?
People are bound to die, and when you reach my mother's age, it doesn't matter whether you die a few years earlier or a few years later.
If you live a good life from now on, mother will be satisfied."
The middle-aged man took off his coat and spread it on a big stone nearby.
"This damn place is not for people to stay at all. It's cold and damp!"
He picked up the old woman and let her sit on the spread clothes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Tian Ming Temple, it's so abominable, why can we only-" "Shut up!"
Because of her son's considerate actions, the old woman felt warm in her heart. When she heard this, she quickly reached out and pressed her son's mouth, scolding, "Misfortune comes from the mouth.
Don't talk nonsense, if you are overheard, you and your wife and children will be killed!"
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and sat on another stone next to him, dejected.
"Okay, let's go.
Just let me stay here by myself."
The old woman understood that her son was still unwilling to leave her here.
Behind a huge boulder in the distance, Lin Chen and Cassia were looking this way.
Cassia whispered: "This man doesn't seem to have no conscience.
I thought he would leave his mother here and then walk away."
"What's the use of having a conscience?"
Lin Chen said.
Cassia turned to look at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen said: "In front of him, there were only two choices, either his mother died, or the whole family died together.
Having a conscience is indeed a good thing, but in many cases, having only a conscience without strength will only increase suffering.
If he has no conscience, he can just abandon his mother and walk away, and he can still live happily in the future.
But now it seems that he abandoned his mother and will probably live in endless pain and self-blame for the rest of his life."
Cassia frowned, knowing that what Lin Chen said was right, she said, "Is it a bad thing to have a conscience and be a filial person?
If a person is not filial to his parents, it is clearly the most abhorrent thing in the world!"
"Nature is a good thing.
I just want to say that the kinder the weak are, the sadder they tend to be, so if a conscientious person wants to live a good life, he needs to work harder to become stronger."
His voice paused and he said, "Have you discovered a problem?
The strength of the two of them is simply too weak, and they are far different from the ordinary people on the original continent.
Even though the concentration of spiritual energy here is not as good as the original continent, with a little practice, it won’t be like this.”
Cassia was startled, looked at the mother and son carefully, and understood what Lin Chen meant.
This mother and son have never practiced at all! On the origin continent, no matter how ordinary people are, they can practice. Even if they are not strong, they are much stronger than this mother and son.
The old woman is only 60 years old. If she practices a little, no matter how poor her qualifications are, she will not be so old at the age of 60. Her appearance is completely caused by overwork and no cultivation at all.
Logically speaking, although the concentration of spiritual energy here is not as good as the original continent, it is still comparable to the top cultivation planet, and it should also have a civilization of cultivators.
"If there are cultivators here, but ordinary people cannot access cultivation, then it is most likely because the books related to cultivation are controlled by certain forces.
Deliberately not allowing ordinary people to practice."
Lin Chen expressed his guess.
Cassia was about to reply when she heard the old woman's angry and helpless voice coming from a distance.
"Quickly go! I tell you to get out! Don't stay here, you damn kid, why can't you understand what I say?
Go quickly, no one can stay here after dark except those waiting to die!"
The sky is getting dark.
When the old woman found that her son had no intention of leaving, she became a little anxious. At first, she asked him to leave in a nice manner, but in the end she refused to listen to him and later scolded him.
But this guy is like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard.
If you don't fight back or retaliate when you scold, you just won't leave! "Mom, I've thought about it! If I don't send you here, my whole family will die. If I send you here, you won't survive."
But you worked so hard to raise me by yourself, and I sent you to die. Am I not a beast?
I have decided that I will die with you!"
The middle-aged man finally spoke, and what he said made the old woman stunned.
Lin Chen and Cassia in the distance were filled with astonishment.
Lin Chen raised the corners of his mouth and revealed a smile: "This guy is quite interesting."
"You, you want to make me mad, right?"
The old woman turned pale with anger, picked up a stone from the ground, and tried to hit her on the head.
"Mom! What are you doing?"
The middle-aged man was startled and hurriedly stopped her.
"Hurry up and leave! If you don't leave, I will die in front of you right now. Do you hear me?"
The old woman shouted with a cold face.
Only then did the middle-aged man understand that the other party was trying to force him to leave in this way, and for a moment he felt even more guilty. The more his mother thought about him, the more he felt that he was nothing! Shashasha - just when the two were in a stalemate
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the distance and the ground shook, as if something huge was approaching.
"what?"
The middle-aged people and the old woman were both frightened, and their hearts trembled when they thought of all the rumors about Soul-Desolating Valley.
Anyone who is sent to Broken Soul Valley will disappear the next day. Someone once sent their parents here and came back to look for them the next day, but there were no bones left.
If the person who was sent here died in the end, how did he die?
The mother and son didn't know.
The next moment, they saw a huge creature appear in their sight!
