396. Difficult choices

As I watched Paul Lacas go away, I couldn't tell what it felt. I forgot which philosopher said that the best way to relieve myself of someone who is hated is to forgive him.

I don’t know if it’s right to think about it like this, but after he left, my heart seemed to be a lot calmer. I couldn’t explain the reason clearly, but it was the case.

Jiugui Masayoshi and others left immediately, leaving me alone in the room, silently looking at the green stone at hand.

I know that this is part of the key, and just by putting it together with my pendant, I can go one step further away from my dream of going back!

Gently, I pinched half a green stone with my right hand and took out the pendant from my arms with my left hand. When I slowly approached the two, they burst out with dazzling light like relatives who met again!

I could hardly open my eyes by the five-colored light! But I still tried my best to look at the stone pendant that gradually merged into one, for fear of missing a little detail!

There seemed to be a violent sound of wind in my ears, and then I was once again in that strange space! A strong sense of pulling came again, and I knew it was this feeling!

What followed was a magical gate that gradually appeared not far away in front of me!

Yes! The door arrived as scheduled, with five bright spots shining brightly on it, only the last two grooves were still dark!

I know that those were the last two stones, but I had no clue now.

The gate appears, so that person - I mean, will my father, also appear here?

I suppressed my excitement and asked loudly: Father! Are you here? I found another stone!

After a moment, my father's voice seemed to sound from the horizon: Yes! I'm here! Child!

My heart was in full heat, and my father immediately said: You have done a good job! Child. I am proud of you!

When I was treating my father who was desperate when I was a child, I always had deep respect and regret in my heart. Therefore, I felt a sense of excitement from the bottom of my heart when I was applauding him!

After enduring for a long time, I spoke: Father, where are the remaining two stones? This is the question I care about the most.

Unexpectedly, my father asked back without answering: Qi Lan, before I answer your question, you should answer me a question first. OK?

I didn't know what he was going to ask, but I still nodded and said solemnly: OK!

My father's voice is very sincere: Qi Lan, after you find all the seven stones, you can indeed have the opportunity to return to the modern world! But!

When I heard the first half, my heart pounded wildly, but when I heard this, I knew that things were not that simple, so I tried my best to calm down, let out a long breath, and quietly waited for the following.

However, after you go back, you will never be able to return to this world. In this time and space, you will be separated from everyone, everything, and all the yin and yang here. Are you still willing to go back?

My father's words made my heart sank! I felt a stir inside, and then asked loudly: Why? Why can't I come back? I've experienced so much, why?

My father's voice was full of regret: I'm sorry, my child, I know this is cruel, but that's the case! I tried my best to get my consciousness back here like I am now, and that's all.

I was silent and didn't know what to say. It took only eight years since I arrived in the Ming Dynasty, but it was much more meaningful and valuable than I had before the thirty years!

Here, I live for myself, I found my true love, my career, and a group of people worth cherishing!

However, in the modern world of the previous life, I still had blood revenge and my mother had not been found. I also wanted to ask Uncle Suzuki to ask in person - why do you betray me?

For a moment, I felt like my heart was torn apart, and I fell into deep pain and confusion!

Why! Why! I worked so hard and paid so much, but reality gave me such a cruel multiple-choice question?

What exactly should I choose? Who can tell me?

I clenched my fists, gritted my teeth tightly, and stood there motionless.

After a long silence, my father and I didn't speak.

After a long time, I felt that it was almost a century that long, and my father's voice came again: Qi Lan, in fact, you don't have to worry about this at all.

I raised my head in confusion and asked: What does it mean?

My father's voice was full of guilt: Dad was incompetent, and he had not been able to give you peace and a beautiful childhood since you were a child. Since I left, you have suffered so much and suffered so much grievances to this day. I have no reason to let you give up these and endure more pain. This is not what I want to see.

At this moment, I felt my throat choked completely and my breathing became difficult! My eyes were red, and something seemed to be spinning inside!

Over the years, I have forced myself to be strong and forced myself to be who I am now. In the words of modern people, if it were not for life, who would have been willing to make myself talented?

What I bear and what I insist on is everything that others don’t know. If you encounter something, you can do what you can, and if you can find a way to do what you can’t do.

Before I came here, I had no childhood, no happiness, and no life of my own. In order to find my mother and for revenge, I turned myself into a simple machine!

I like this world and can’t bear to leave the people here, the things here, everything here!

But, my body and hair are my parents, can I really let the fact that I have always been there for my own happiness turn a blind eye to the fact that I have always been there?

My father's excuse did not make me feel relaxed, but was even more deeply moved!

I couldn't help but murmur: What is this suggestion? Do you want me to be an ostrich with my head hidden in a haystack?

The father couldn't help but laugh and said softly: I mean, there is still a long time before finding the remaining two stones. You don't have to be so anxious. My son! The reason why I told you this is actually to give you a vaccination. As for how you choose, I support you!

Making your children happy is a father’s greatest wish.

I let out a long breath again and gave it to time. This seemed to be the best way.

So I raised my head and looked at the empty sky where there was a vortex-like thing, like a galaxy, and asked softly: Father, are you okay?

My father's voice was filled with a smile: I'm very good, my child. Thank you for everything you have done. I didn't expect you to be so outstanding, and I am very pleased.

I also smiled. Although my nose was sour, I still smiled happily: it was just the result of hard work, nothing worth boasting about.

My father nodded in praise and said again: You have become a mature man, Qi Lan! You are better than your father, this is the truth!

I nodded and continued to ask: Where are the remaining two stones? Father, tell me, I'll go find them!

Unexpectedly, my father did not answer my question positively: these seven stones are actually just the crystallization of spiritual consciousness. They have no fixed form or fixed position. As long as you follow your own heart and move forward bravely, you will definitely find what you want.

It seems that my father doesn't know where these stones are. But what he said makes sense. The acquisition of these stones was suddenly sudden. I don't know where to get them, nor do I know what the right way is. But after I completed a certain thing, they seemed to appear like that, without any warning, but clearly.

I looked into the void and said loudly: Don't worry, Father, I have been moving forward! One day, I will find all the keys and open the shuttle door!

I'm waiting! My son! The father's voice seems to be getting farther and farther away: I hope you can still be healthy and safe when you see you again. Take care of yourself, my child!

After saying that, the strong pulling feeling of time and space came unexpectedly again. I was like a small boat in the air with a roaring wave of the sea. I could not control my body at all, but I knew I was safe.

Take care too! Father! I murmured, and a gentle sound seemed to be heard from afar. I know, my father heard it.

I don't know how long it took, but I returned to my house in Dublin, or rather, I've never left here.

Maybe it's just a misalignment of time, maybe it's something invisible, intangible, and incomprehensible that is in all this. In short, it happened, and it happened very naturally.

Holding the pendant in my hand gently, I seemed to be able to feel a little throbbing of time and space from it. After the green stone became complete, I really felt that the pendant became different!

The red stone seems to make me more tenacious in vitality, the white stone seems to make me more intelligent and sharp-eyed, and the black stone makes my attacks attach to corrosion and cutting effects. The purple stone brings me to the present. I just vaguely feel that I have good luck recently. Does purple bring this metaphysical effect?

So what about the green stone, what does it bring to me? I tried to penetrate the consciousness into the pendant, especially towards the green part. The green stone began to flash a bright green light, which looked very beautiful, but I didn't know what it did.

At this moment, I felt a numb and itchy feeling on my arms. I raised my arms in surprise and saw that the wounds that were scratched by iron pieces of wood chips and ammunition during the naval battle were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye! And those areas that had already scabbed were quickly growing new muscles and skin!

Could it be...is it like Karasim's ability, green-I mean, the complete green stone brings the ability to heal?

I immediately lifted my clothes and something that left me dumbfounded was happening - wounds of all sizes on my body were recovering and fading, and even the scars left by fighting the Tatars many years ago disappeared quickly!

It can really be cured? This...it's amazing!

A person flashed like a flash of lightning in my heart - Yuan!

With this ability, can I cure her?

Yes, I can! I can!

The joy made me almost crazy! I ran out of the door and shouted loudly: Zhengfei! Zhengfei!

Jiugui Zhengxiao was wiping the weapons silently not far away. Hearing my call, he ran over and asked anxiously: What's wrong? Sir?

I grabbed his arm and asked anxiously: Is there any news about Guan? Even if it is a clue?

Before Jiugui Zhengxiao answered, he heard a female voice coming from the door: Yes, Qi Lan.

I turned my head quickly, but saw a person whom I had never expected appeared - it was Huamei!

She had been away for so long and suddenly came back today! And from what she meant, it seemed that she had found Yuan's whereabouts!

I rushed to Huamei a few steps and was about to speak excitedly, but I saw Huamei looking at me with a complicated expression.

I suddenly felt a thrill in my heart. Yes, it is said that Huamei is my real fiancée. Now that I have been reunited after a long time, I didn’t ask her if it’s okay, so I asked about other women’s situations. It’s unreasonable to be reasonable.

So, I looked at Huamei's face that had been tanned a lot but was still beautiful and asked softly: Are everything okay after I have been back for so long?

Huamei said with a smile: Are you asking me or asking others?

I smiled helplessly and said: I mainly ask you.

Huamei smiled: As you can see, I am very good, but... her face was a little sad: Governor Qi was in a bad state recently, I guess... what you said at that time, his deadline is coming soon!

Bang! The stone pendant I was holding in my hand suddenly fell to the ground!
