Chapter 24 Withering and glory, the fate of sin

Lan Kai gradually became calmer. As the helmsman of a large enterprise, without strong will, he would not have been given the task to go all the way to today when the previous generation of helmsmen died suddenly.?

"Xinyue, will you marry me?"

"I won't accept your proposal like this."

Xinyue still hugged Lan Kai and gently rubbed his skin with her fingers, "Whether it is the venue or the atmosphere, it seems that you have no sincerity at all."

"That's right." Lan Kai laughed at himself, "I'm fine."

Only then did Xinyue let go of him... because of trust, she let go of Lan Kai, then walked behind Lan Xiu, stretched out her hand to lift him up when he fell to the ground, and looked like he was struggling.

Lan Kai looked at it and said subconsciously: "This guy has no consciousness at all, what does he care about?"

After all, Xinyue put Lan Xiu's hand on her shoulder, supported the two of them vigorously, looked up at Lan Kai and said: "Even if you are just a stranger, you can't ignore death, right? I

I grew up with you, don’t you and Lan Xiu grow up together?"

"You always do unnecessary things." Lan Kai frowned, walked to Xinyue and helped her. The two of them worked together to help Lan Xiu back to bed.

He didn't know if he felt sorry for Xinyue more, or as she said, even strangers can't ignore death. What's more, Lan Xiu...

Lan Kai said sadly: "Go back to the hospital. I should be by Xiaorou's side at this time."

"I'll accompany you."





Suddenly, Qianxiu missed the trumpet mage who could persist in fishing in this place.

Maybe it's human nature. When you're alone, you always long for the sounds around you.

It does not necessarily need to be a voice speaking to yourself, and the focus does not necessarily need to be on yourself. What is needed may just be another person talking to himself, or a conversation between two other people.

"Golden Carp King, is there really such a thing?"

It is probably an instinctive mechanism of self-protection after the pain reaches extreme, and the brain circuit automatically switches to some insignificant issues to achieve the effect of diverting attention.

The body easily obeys the brain's thoughts at this time and moves according to the brain's instructions to achieve the effect of escaping again.

I opened my hazy eyes forcefully. When the alcohol in my body accumulated to an extremely high level, it seemed that my thinking speed had been slowed down infinitely.

Qianxiu squatted on the edge of the small bridge, looking at the lake below, and finally sank into the lake.

The cold lake water instantly covered up the bright starlight of the Emerald Fantasy Night, and the coolness first poured in between the noses, sealing off all possibilities of breathing.

His body was so hot that he couldn't seem to feel the real coldness of the lake. Instead, it seemed cool, as if a passage between the hot and the cold had been opened for him.

He seemed to have forgotten his death number, and his frozen thoughts prevented him from remembering anything. In this state of weightlessness, Qianxiu felt extremely relaxed in body and mind.

If that's the case, can you just erase all traces of yourself?

That's it...

If, that's it.



The bells in Zhongguancheng suddenly rang.

On the top floor of the tower, the messy auditorium had been restored to its original appearance a long time ago. The pastor stationed here was supporting his chin with his hand and dozing off on the podium at the front of the auditorium.

But the ten bells still woke him up.

The pastor seemed startled. He opened his old eyes and glanced at the night outside. Then he casually glanced at the man who had left the auditorium. He was sitting on a bench below with his hands fit.

, a woman who is praying to the statue behind the pastor.

The bell rang up and down, and when it reached ten, it stopped. And she suddenly opened her eyes while praying and looked at the pastor.

She seemed unsure, so she asked, "Pastor, what time is it?"

"It's already ten o'clock, Miss Qianyu Xianrou."

"Isn't it only nine o'clock?" She stood up, walked directly to the podium, and raised her head, "I only heard the bell ringing nine times!"

"It is indeed ten o'clock." The pastor said with certainty: "In addition, Miss Qianyu Xianrou, regarding the damage you caused to the auditorium before, I hope you can provide relative compensation after the reserved time is over."

"It's just an NPC designed by someone! If it weren't for the fact that we can't do anything here, believe it or not, I would kill you!"

The pastor closed his eyes and said, "If you attack a clergyman, you will be punished accordingly. Miss Qianyu Xianrou, you have to think carefully about it."

Seeing the pastor's indifferent attitude, her tense anger suddenly dropped a lot.

Then she turned her back to the pastor, sat down against the podium, hugged her knees, and suddenly asked: "Do you really believe in God, pastor?"

The priest said: "Science cannot prove that a certain object does not exist."

Xiaorou was stunned and said: "You, a clergyman, still believe in the existence of science?"

The priest said: "After crossing the frozen valley and reaching the Gerda Prairie, you can see the country of the goblins. They are a nation that is good at using science to create."

Xiaorou shook her head, "That's right, I've forgotten that the world view set in this game is the coexistence of science and theology. Forget it, just pretend I haven't asked you. So... what do you think about ethics?"

The pastor said: "Definition 1: Ethics is a subject that explores what is good and bad, and discusses moral responsibilities and obligations. Definition 2: Ethics is a series of concepts that guide behavior, and is a philosophical thinking about moral phenomena from a conceptual perspective.

.It not only contains the behavioral norms in dealing with the relationship between people, people and society, and people and nature, but also profoundly contains the profound principles of regulating behavior according to certain principles. Definition 3: Ethics is..."

"Stop!" Xiaorou patted the podium against her back hard, making a banging sound, "Stop talking! I don't want to hear this kind of information! As expected, it's useless even if I ask."

She couldn't help but laugh at herself...she would actually ask a bunch of data designed by programmers.

The priest suddenly said: "When the great Father God created the first humans, there was no ethics. The first humans drank hair and blood, walked according to instinct, and were no different from wild beasts. Later, the Father God standardized ethics for the first humans, and humans gradually

With order, the world has become so prosperous until now."

"In other words, ethics are necessary, right?" She raised her head and could not see the appearance of the pastor. She could only see the mural on the ceiling of the auditorium on the podium.

The pastor said: "Being needed."

"Being needed..." Xiaorou sneered: "Then if the human order is broken and becomes chaotic again, or the existing ethics are no longer suitable for the development of the world, can it also be overturned and abandoned, and then

To create a new ethics and order? No longer limited to the so-called etiquette, current morality, and established relationships between people?"

She had already stood up, her eyes piercing the priest like a sharp sword, but she saw the priest standing motionless, even his expression seemed to be paused.

She could only feel a moment of disappointment... How could these simple data accumulations be able to answer this kind of question?

Probably being able to give an answer like "is needed" already shows that the programmer who designed it is very conscientious.

No one can give her her own answer... The moment the eleventh bell of Guancheng rang at night, Xiaorou looked at everything outside the tower in silence.

Why has it become so peaceful?



A quarter past eleven.

It's a quarter past eleven...thirty seconds.

Xiaorou suddenly took a deep breath, turned around, walked to the pastor, and said with a smile: "Pastor, prepare for the ceremony."

The priest said: "Miss Qianyu Xianrou, you cannot hold the ceremony alone."

Xiaorou smiled and said: "No, it's two people... there will be two people soon."

The pastor asked curiously: "Why are you so sure?"

"Because, no matter when it is, as long as we have an agreement..." Xiaorou said with tears, "He will definitely arrive half an hour early. It will always be like this."

At a quarter past eleven, the door of the auditorium suddenly opened with a loud bang. Qianxiu, who was wet and panting, looking extremely embarrassed, still grabbed the handle of the door lock with both hands and stared angrily.

Her body trembled slightly, but she still had the firmness she had a few seconds ago. It was like she had been drained of all her strength. She turned around in an instant with fear and uneasiness, and stood in front of the podium, her eyes passing over the long

Long red carpet look.

"Are you sick? You have to go to such a high place, and the stairs are still spiral!" Qian Xiu took a few breaths, strode quickly, and walked quickly to Xiaorou.

"I knew you were coming back."

"If I don't come, after twelve o'clock, you won't even be able to stay in this world anymore and just find a place to kill yourself, right?"

She nodded with a sad face.

"Does such a threat make sense?"

"If you don't care about me anymore, do they still mean anything to you?"

Lan Xiu suddenly spoke. She let it go without saying a word, her eyes like sharp needles and sharp wheat awns.

Time passed little by little, and it came to three-quarters of an hour to eleven, and then came the last ten minutes of the day... nine minutes... eight minutes... seven minutes...

When the twelfth bell rang, which represented the arrival of midnight, Qian Xiu took a deep breath, "Do you know what it means to be here?"

"Um……"

"You can no longer be willful. You will not be able to enjoy a high-quality life, you will suffer, you will even face more dangers, and you may even starve!"

"I put in all my pocket money. It's 23 million diamonds. It should last for a long time. Don't worry! I'm not afraid!"

"...Why are you always so willful?" Qian Xiu rubbed his forehead, "You have to hand it in! You are not allowed to smoke anything again! You can't buy things randomly!"

"Know it!"

"Even if I never see Lan Kai again?"

"You know? I can't let go of all this... Brother, he can't let go either." Qianyu Xianrou lowered her head and leaned on Qian Xiu's chest, "He is suffering too much. He has been suffering too much. I am no longer here.

, he can be freed. If there had been no news from you, I wouldn't have been able to persist until now... Lan Kai, he has a heavy sense of responsibility. He has been the eldest son of Lan for thirty years, but he has never been himself...

…He was never free…”

"This is no reason for us to be like this." Qian Xiu shook his head.

Qianyu Xianrou raised her head and looked at the face she had been waiting for for a long time in horror, her body trembling.

But he grabbed her palm forcefully and looked at the priest on the podium because under Qianyu's delicate instructions, the priest who had already started the ceremony did not stop.

The priest, who had already finished reciting the long lines, stopped at this time and said repeatedly: Mr. Qianxiu, are you willing to marry Miss Qianyu Xianrou?

"I do." Qian Xiu answered with absolute certainty.

Qianyu's delicate body trembled even more violently... Finally, she heard such words.

"Miss Qianyu Xianrou, are you willing to marry Mr. Qianxiu?"

"I do!" She said loudly: "I do! I do!"

The pastor nodded, closed the scriptures on the podium with both hands, and then spread them out. Above the auditorium, two rays of light were flashing, turning into light groups, and slowly landed in front of Qianxiu and Qianyu.

Then it turned into two rings.

The pastor said loudly: "Then, with the command of God the Father, I declare to you..."

But the pastor's words were suddenly interrupted by Qian Xiu, "No! No blessing is required. We only unite in the name of...sinners."

"...to announce that you are officially husband and wife, please exchange rings." The pastor smiled slightly.

Qian Xiu silently picked up the ring and put it on Qian Yu's delicate finger, "In the name of sinners, we will not get happiness."

She also silently picked up the ring and put it on Qian Xiu's finger, "In the name of sinners, even if we don't get happiness, we will be together forever, and nothing can separate us anymore."

"We are accomplices."

"Already an accomplice from the beginning."

There was no one watching the ceremony in the auditorium, which proved that the priest was just a fictitious thing. He even needed to come to a completely unfamiliar world and give up being a human being...he and she kissed here.

A forbidden flower bloomed under existing human relations.









Zhan Song Gudazi: "God of Milk!! Give me some milk! Where are the people!!!"

Xiaobao: "It's coming, it's coming, right now!"

Muscular Kangna sighed: "I finally understand why you are called a cheater. It really means that you form a team once and you don't have to go back and form it again."

Xiaobao: "Don't be like this, I have a long-term partner after all!"

Green Death Ku Shui asked curiously: "Damn...could there be someone worse than you?"

Xiaobao: "It's quite tricky. I never use voice, I only know how to type. You don't know how tired I am! It's still fun to text and voice at the same time like this! It frees up both hands! But I say, although in this aspect

It’s worth complaining, but my boss will definitely not cheat! If it’s like this copy, I think these two bosses can get through it directly!”

Zhange Gudazi said in astonishment: "Who is so awesome? Do you know him?"

Xiaobao laughed and said, "I guess I can't do it for the time being. I'm on my honeymoon...even though it's just in the game."

"Tch! Pay attention to the milk supply!!"

"Okay, okay, come here, come here...wait, wait! I'll go away!!"

"Nah...here we go again! Kick this cheater out of the team!!"

Xiaobao could no longer see the scene where his character had been kicked out of the team. He just ran hurriedly outside the corridor of the office with a pile of information, "Tch, am I going to tell you that the two bosses of my family are

The pair of legendary gods in the gaming world!"



"What are you laughing at?" Qian Yu Xianrou poked her head out from under Qian Xiu's arm and asked curiously.

"Xiaobao's email." Qianxiu smiled: "Another team was tricked by him."

Qianyu Xianrou thought for a while and said: "Well, actually, you are quite good, but those people don't know the goods, right? Where should we go next? Are we going to explore new areas as planned?"

Qian Xiu suddenly said: "Before that, I want to go somewhere first?"

"Where?"

"Novice Village."



"Wow, is there such a great place? How come I never knew about it?"

On the small bridge by the lake, Qianyu Xianrou stretched, but Qianxiu was here quietly looking at the entrance in front of the bridge, not saying much. Qianyu Xianrou didn't mind either, just silently looking at Qianxiu's side.

Face.

After waiting for a long time, I saw a young man dressed as a mage at the end of the bridge, holding a fishing rod in one hand and a basket in the other, walking slowly.

"Are you just waiting for this person? Why is he only at level four?" Qianyu Xianrou blinked her eyes, as if feeling incredible.

Qian Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "He has been at level four since I met him. He never does anything, he just comes here to fish when he has time... The mission of the legendary Golden Carp King."

Qianyu Xianrou's eyes widened, "The one who claims to be impossible to complete?"

Qian Xiu nodded.

Qianyu Xianrou shook her head, "I don't know if this guy is lucky or unlucky."

Finally, the little mage walked up to the two of them, smiled slightly and said, "It's two people this time?"

Qian Xiu nodded, smiled and said: "I found the answer to the question about the isolated island monkey."

"Congratulations." Little Mage lq nodded.

Qian Xiu suddenly said: "Don't you want to know the answer?"

The little mage shook his head, walked past the two of them, and came to the place where he always fished. He sat down and said casually: "It's your answer, not mine. It's of no use to me."

"Why is this person like this?" Qian Yu asked softly in Qian Xiu's ear.

Qian Xiu shook his head slightly, walked behind the little mage, and suddenly said: "I saw it."

The little mage turned to look at him.

Qian Xiu said: "Golden Carp King, I saw it. It is indeed under the bottom of the lake, probably in a cave in the middle."

"I know." The little mage smiled.

Qian Xiu said in astonishment: "You know?"

The little mage said: "Because I tried to find someone to take the bait down for me before, but he was chased around by the Carp King and died many times. Later I realized that I can only catch him with a fishing rod."

Qian Xiu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the lq little mage. After a long time, he suddenly burst out laughing, "Really? Is that so? It's always been... it's always been there, so it's like this!"

"The willing one will take the bait." The little mage also smiled slightly.

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?" Qian Yu Xianrou stood between the two of them, looking back and forth. Then, like a frightened rabbit, she directly hugged Qian Xiu's arm and looked at her with hostility.

From the perspective of the little mage.

She also deliberately flashed the ring on her hand... Of course, she didn't think the little mage would notice, she just did it like this.

Qian Xiu just smiled and said nothing.

At this moment, the little mage suddenly put down the fishing rod in his hand and stood up.

System prompt: Player lq asks you to inherit the mission "Fishing for the Golden Carp King". Do you want to inherit it?

This was the voice that sounded in Qian Xiu's mind. He opened his eyes in shock and moved his lips, "Why?"

"Just think of it as... your wedding gift." The little mage smiled and said: "Although they say it is an impossible task, I hope you don't mind."

"What about yourself? Isn't it a pity to suddenly give up after working hard for such a long time?" Qian Xiu frowned.

"Me?" The little mage shook his head: "I'm just killing time. If I don't do this task, there are actually many things I can do."

Qian Xiu thought for a while and nodded, "Then I'm welcome. If it happens, I'll tell you."

"waiting for your good news."

The little mage just left the two of them, walked out of the bridge, walked through the long piece of mud used for digging earthworms, and then disappeared into the forest.

Qianxiu picked up the fishing rod on the ground and looked at it silently.

"You're not really planning to do this task, are you?" Qianyu Xianrou asked curiously, "It's impossible to complete."

"Just think of it as... atonement." Qian Xiu gave the answer softly, but when he saw Qian Yu's delicate movements, he couldn't help but frown, "What do you want to do..."

"I bought universal fishing bait in the mall instead. Is it possible to catch earthworms?" Qianyu Xianrou said of course, "I really caught them with my hands! It's not pixels! It's a bad habit...brother!"

Qian Xiu hit the other party's head hard, "I told you, don't buy things randomly!!"





Hospital, observation ward.

Facing the mirror in front of him, Lan Kai quietly looked at Lan Xiaorou lying inside, as if she was asleep.

The crescent moon is beside him, folding paper cranes.

Lan Kai suddenly sighed, "Xinyue, do you think she will be unconscious from now on, or is she dreaming a dream of her own?"

"I don't know." Xinyue shook her head, "We can only think about the good things... No one knows the answer, not Xiaorou herself."

With that said, Xinyue placed the folded paper cranes on the table here. There were already many paper cranes here.

Lan Kai shook his head and said: "The doctor said she may not be able to wake up in this life. If you do so much, she won't be able to see. Isn't it redundant?"

Xinyue said with a smile: "You, are you saying that I do unnecessary things all day long, is it interesting? Don't you yourself do all the unnecessary things?"

Lan Kai snorted coldly: "I didn't."

Xinyue stood up straight, stretched out her hand to touch Lan Kai's lips, and sighed: "Lan's Group is engaged in the production of large-scale equipment... This has nothing to do with the medical industry, right? But since you took over

After establishing a business, why did you suddenly want to invest in the medical industry? Why did you also cooperate with the hospital and open such a nursing home? "

"Enterprises need to transform, and they cannot die." Lan Kai shook his head and looked away: "Your family is also a business family. Don't you understand this?"

"I'm just a little woman. I really don't understand how you do business." Xinyue knocked on Lan Kai's forehead, "But, we want other hospitals to focus on studying the nervous system, and we even plan to cooperate with another foreign country to develop another neurological system.

What’s the purpose of the prosthetic limb project again?”

"Who told you?" Lan Kai frowned and said in a deep voice: "Is it this guy Xiao Li? See if I don't scold him when I turn around! The secretary doesn't look like a secretary!"

Xinyue stretched out her hand and knocked Lan Kai's forehead again, and said: "Because of your domineering attitude, I will soon become the petitioner for your employees, okay? It's better for them. They came to my piano classroom to complain, and they felt comfortable.

, but you are disturbing my teaching students!"

"I..." Lan Kai hesitated, finally took a breath, shook his head and said, "Okay, I'll be more careful in the future."

"Besides paying attention, is there nothing else?" Xinyue still had a tense face.

Lan Kai said helplessly: "Okay, okay, if there's anything else, tell me, can't I change it?"

Xinyue said softly: "Are you right? It's almost time to let yourself go?"

Lan Kai's body trembled slightly, he looked at Lan Xiaorou in front of the bed, and put his hand on the glass in front of him, "If I hadn't persisted...would they have been living well in that corner of the world?"

"

"I don't know." Xinyue shook her head.

Lan Kai breathed a sigh of relief, "After Xiaorou's condition is completely stable, send her to a nursing home."

"Really?" Xinyue looked at Lan Kai in surprise.

Lan Kai nodded silently, "Don't let more tragedies happen. The little girl in the bedroom, Lan Xiu's brother, should also give it a try."

"That's good."

Lan Kai grabbed Xinyue's hand and said, "By the way, should you consider marrying me?"

Xinyue took out her hand and backed away with her hands behind her back, "No."

"Why?" Lan Kai asked puzzledly.

"Now that I think about it, you don't seem to have pursued me properly, have you? My years of understanding have been wasted because of your ignorance. Now you just ask me to marry you with just a casual sentence? How can it be so cheap?

What's going on?" With that said, Xinyue opened the door and walked out.

Lan Kai chased after you directly, "Wait, who said I didn't chase you? From junior high school to high school to college, I have been chasing you, right? New moon! New moon! Let's go to the movies tonight?"

"don't want!"

"New Moon!! Wait for me!"

"don't want!"





The wind blew open the curtains, and in a room in a quiet nursing home in the suburbs, a man and a woman were lying on beds side by side.

All are very clean.

Because you are well taken care of here.

The club maid was replacing fresh roses on the vase in front of the window sill, while Boss Luo was standing between the two hospital beds.

"If... the human order is broken and becomes chaotic again, or the existing ethics are no longer suitable for the development of the world, can it also be overthrown and abandoned, and then create a new ethics and order? No more

Is it limited to so-called etiquette, current morality, and established relationships between people?"

The roses spread out into beautiful shapes under You Ye's hands. After hearing this, the maid turned around and saw Luo Qiu shaking his head, "It's quite difficult, this proposition."

The maid lady said: "Well... In the ancient times in the East, there seems to be a so-called rule that the Lord of Heaven and Earth is the master, but now you are no longer here, right?"

"That will happen a long, long time later." Luo Qiu smiled, then walked to the bedside table between the two beds and placed a small photo frame on the cabinet.

"Then, the things stored with me will be returned to you...two guests."



He and she were the only ones left sleeping in the ward of the nursing home.

The wind still stirred the gauze in front of the window, and the gauze stirred the roses on the vase.

In the photo, he and her are hugging each other intimately... Who would probably think that he and she are lovers who love each other so deeply, right?

ps: This is a story, ‘As long as there is love, there is no problem even if it is (crossed out)’… That’s it. 8
