Chapter 2669: Cutting Anxiety to Instant Light Fifty-one
Great Britain, Edinburgh's old town.
A blue swallowtail butterfly stopped beside the clear window lattice.
The sun was pouring down, it was an afternoon that was neither hot nor windy, and the humidity in the air made this little creature feel very comfortable.
The butterfly began to flap its wings. It fluttered, danced, and flew gracefully, feeling free in this dreamlike atmosphere.
The world is so beautiful.
The faint fragrance came from the blue roses planted on the balcony by the window. They bloomed silently, quietly offering blessings to this beautiful world in the most unknown corner of this dilapidated old city.
The elegant fragrance, with its sweetness in the clearness, floats in the atmosphere along with the watery breath. The person who took care of these blue roses watered them not long ago, so on their branches and leaves, they are slightly curled up.
There are still scattered water droplets of different sizes on the petals. Due to gravity, these small water droplets turn into oval and slightly flattened, shining like gems in the sun. They are so small that they are almost difficult to use.
In the shadows visible to the naked eye, there are dazzling rainbows. They are dazzling by the most luxurious treasures in the world.
The world is so beautiful. Human eyes may not be able to recognize this beauty, but the butterfly’s compound eyes see everything. It engraves all of this deeply in its soul, and in order to keep it in its short life,
A beauty that will last forever.
It landed gently on the petals of the rose, attracted by the sweet smell, stretched out its straw, and sucked the honeydew hidden deep in the flower.
It demands little from the world and is easily satisfied. It does not know the vastness of the universe or its own insignificance. It is just a creature living in the current second. In this second, it is among the flowers.
A glimpse of heaven.
The world is so beautiful.
Living in a state of wandering, drunken life and dreaming of death.
Fighting for fame and fortune, running for the sake of mouth.
Joys and sorrows, separation and separation, worries about gains and losses.
In a person's life, there are too many false expectations and too many choices. He thinks he can become great, but he doesn't know that he is just a speck of dust in the universe.
Throwing ups and downs throughout his life, he may not even be as good as a butterfly.
While he was lost in thought, the butterfly was startled by a figure by the window. Someone was approaching, but it was only a small butterfly and could not see the full picture of that tall giant.
There is just a faint fragrance coming from that figure. It is not the fragrance of flowers, but an indescribable fragrance that is almost imperceptible.
The figure teased the butterfly with its slender jade fingers. The butterfly did not flee in panic, nor did it reject it. It landed on the snow-white finger, just to further confirm the looming entity of the fragrance.
Then, the figure began to hum a song softly.
[You are lying quietly in front of me.]
[Your smile means everything to the world.]
[Outside the window, the gentle breeze blows.]
[My love will always stay here.]
[This love is always there, reserved only for you.]
[Now, you are everything to me.]
[In my eternal dream.]
[Sleep, my beloved child.]
[Let this lullaby close your eyes, good night.]
[May I always be in your heart.]
[Although I feel reluctant to give up, I just wish you happiness.]
[May this lullaby put you to sleep peacefully.]
[Good night, good night, good night.]
[So precious, sleeping deeply in my soul.]
[Where do you hide and laugh with me?]
[Perhaps a carefree ride in the sky?]
[Maybe you are happier than me.]
[Seeds of hope are sown in the fields. Who will be lucky enough to sprout?]
[If I am no longer here;]
[Please do not show any trace of sadness.]
[You won’t hear me leave.]
[I will always be in your dreams and heart.]
[Sing this lullaby to my little baby.]
[Good night, good night, good night.]
[Where is the light?]
[Is it somewhere, watching over us?]
[May I always be in your heart.]
[Although I feel reluctant to give up, I just wish you happiness.]
[Good night, good night, good night.]
The song ended and everyone dispersed. The blue swallowtail butterfly also left the window sill and flew out.
And the beautiful and vast world is waiting.
Sabo slowly opened his eyes, tears stained on his eyes.
He seemed to have had a dream, a beautiful but sad dream. Everything in the dream was so vague, yet so real, and he seemed to still be able to hear the lullaby lingering in his ears.
He couldn't help but become confused.
After all, he had a dream, dreaming that he was a butterfly,
Or did the butterfly have a dream, dreaming that he was a human being?
Is everything in front of him real now? Or is it just a continuation of a dream?
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if he really was just a butterfly?
Seemingly hearing movement in the room, Mason, the blond boy who was staying at Saab's house, opened the door and poked his head in to see what was going on: "Brother Saab? Are you awake?"
"Yeah," the gray rabbit man replied in a low voice, a little absent-minded. He was probably sleepy.
Mason smiled bitterly, and then said: "Are you hungry? Let me get you something to eat. If you can only eat liquid food after the operation, can very thin oatmeal be okay? There is also orange juice."
"Yes, please," Sabo continued to reply feebly. He didn't feel particularly hungry, but he had slept for most of the day and was a little bored. He wanted to eat something to pass the time and get back the feeling of being alive.
.
There is no real sense of "alive". He has a feeling that he is not himself. Daniel mentioned before that it is probably a side effect of the "rejection control drug". That drug will not only reduce his immunity, but also various
Unknown and strange side effects.
However, even if those drugs were not affecting him, when had he ever felt alive? No dreams and no hope. Everything was lost, and there was nothing left to do. Just live, living like a zombie. Do it now
Everything is just to allow that broken soul to maintain a little bit.
Does it all really make sense?
"Well, wait a moment." Mason turned around and left, preparing to make oatmeal.
"Singing" Sabo suddenly whispered.
"What?"
"Just now, I seemed to hear someone singing in the haziness." The rabbit man young man.
"Maybe you heard it wrong?" Mason's eyes flickered for a moment, but his back was turned to Sabo, so the other party naturally didn't see it.
"Did you hear that correctly?" Sabo closed his eyes and said, "I feel like I didn't hear that correctly."
Such a beautiful song. It is also so lonely. It is a lullaby sung by a mother to her child, but at the same time it expresses parting.
Whenever he recalls that rhyme, tears well up in the corners of Sabo's eyes.
"Brother Sabo?"
"Can you sing, Mason?" the Gray Rabbit asked in a low voice.
"If you don't, I'll be exempted. I have a bean paste throat and tone deaf——"
"Is that so?" Sabo said thoughtfully, "I thought your magnetic voice would sound great when singing."
Mason fell completely silent. Sabo's unintentional words seemed to touch the blond boy.
"The oatmeal will be ready soon, please wait a moment." Mason pretended to be calm and changed the subject, and immediately turned around and escaped from Sabo's sight.
Is there something wrong? The bunny boy couldn't help but wonder.
At this time, he also heard the sound of the door being pushed open outside.
"I'm back." Daniel, a familiar guy, didn't know how to be polite, so he regarded the Sabo family as his own.
"Not dead yet?" Then just as Sabo expected, Daniel poked his head in from the outside to check on Sabo.
"Not dead." Gray Bunny replied sullenly: "You're back so soon? Didn't the Knights give you an important task?"
"It is true that I have received an important task, but what will happen next." Daniel was vague: "I may be very busy recently, and I can only spare half a day to come back. I don't know. I only have half a day here every day, and you are alone.
no problem?"
"What a strange question this is. Mason is also watching at home." Sabo snorted.
"Hmph," the Silver Knight boy lowered his voice: "Isn't it that boy I'm most worried about?"
Until now, Daniel seems to be guarding against Mason, although Sabo doesn't think Daniel has the need to guard against that child.
"By the way, did anything strange happen while I was away?" Daniel asked again.
"No. Why do you ask that?"
Daniel looked at the faint tears in the corners of Sabo's eyes and did not answer directly.
Even the gray rabbit man felt embarrassed, so he wiped the wet corners of his eyes and said, "If you must, I had a strange dream."
"oh?"
"I dreamed that I turned into a butterfly, flying in the sky." Rabbit Man Youth: "I always feel that the world in the eyes of a butterfly is more beautiful than the world we see. Wow, that's really an interesting dream."
"
"Dream?" Daniel murmured thoughtfully: "Maybe it's not a dream."
"Are you kidding me?"
"It's not a joke." Daniel said with a serious face: "I forgot to tell you one thing. But it's better that you know this yourself and don't go out."
Do you still remember? When they asked you to join the Knights, they were afraid of your abilities and implanted a chip in the back of your neck. The function of the chip was to suppress your abilities as a bunnyman, preventing you from using your abilities with animals.
Communicate. But when the doctor performs surgery on you, the chip will affect your postoperative recovery, so he just removed the chip."
Sabo frowned.
"Right now, you can logically use your ability as a rabbit to communicate with animals. But the [rejection control agent] you take may have various unknown side effects depending on the user's physique.
.If you feel that "you are not yourself", it is actually the drug that is causing trouble. It will weaken the "absolute realm" of living things and affect people's self-cognition. It relies on this principle to prevent newly transplanted organs from being absorbed by your body.
The body rejects it."
"I don't understand. What does this have to do with the strange dream I had?"
"That may not be a dream. You may have activated the ability [to communicate with animals] unconsciously and established some kind of spiritual connection with the butterfly."
At the same time, the side effects of the drug affect your [self-cognition], so you project your subjective consciousness onto the butterfly, thinking that you are a butterfly." Daniel analyzed: "In short, the butterfly you dreamed about may be real.
Existence. You accidentally saw the world through the eyes of a butterfly. It’s probably like this."
"It's a bit ridiculous." Sabo denied. He had never heard of the bunny people having this kind of ability. The bunny people's ability is not even [controlling animals], just [the ability to communicate with animals]. They can request animals through communication.
Helping them do things, but this is just a [request], often not a mandatory [control]. This and [controlling the butterfly's vision to see the world] are two abilities that cannot be compared with each other.
"Whether it's true or not," Daniel was obviously not interested in this matter. "It means that your ability is recovering. Isn't that a good thing? You are lying in bed and cannot move freely. Maybe you can try to use this temporary special ability."
, broaden your horizons and see the world from another angle?
[The world through the eyes of animals] If there is really a way to see it, it would definitely be interesting."
Sabo did not answer. He was annoyed by Daniel's series of irresponsible guesses.
But what if all this is true?
What if he really had a way to see the world through the vision of other creatures?
The Gray Rabbit has a bold idea, but he doesn't plan to put it into practice right away. He should at least wait until the dead of night to test it.
