Chapter 2 Some things have to be done

Xu Donglai stared at the boy with his eyes tightly, and said with his trembling lips: "Are you Zhou Qu?"

The boy nodded and shook his head again: "Zhou Qu is actually not my real name, my real name is Zhou Mubai."

Tears came out from Xu Donglai's eyes again, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Are you really Zhou Qu?"

Zhou Mubai smiled helplessly: "I am."

Xu Donglai cried out with a wow cry, feeling very aggrieved, as if decades of grievances were contained in the heart-wrenching cry.

Zhou Mubai smiled helplessly, and there was guilt and joy in his smile. He gently hugged the old woman Xu Donglai, as if he was holding an aggrieved lover, but the scene was quite strange, like a grandson hugging a crying grandmother.

"Okay, okay, stop crying, they are all grandmas. Your granddaughter hears it. Do you see if you are ashamed?" Zhou Mubai gently patted Xu Donglai's shoulder.

Unexpectedly, after such comfort, Xu Donglai cried even more sadly, and even slammed Zhou Mubai's chest with his fist.

Zhou Mubai had no choice but to wait for Xu Donglai to calm down himself.

After a long time, Xu Donglai became quiet. He cried for a long time and even burped.

Zhou Mubai handed over the already a little cold water, touched it, poured the cold water, and poured the hot water and handed it to Xu Donglai. Xu Donglai held the hot water cup and looked at Zhou Mubai blankly.

Zhou Mubai just smiled.

"Why... why have you... been decades, why hasn't you changed at all?" Xu Donglai hesitated.

Zhou Mubai sighed slightly: "This... I don't know how to explain it to you. A long time ago, I found that I have never aged again."

Xu Donglai was shocked. This might be a shocking secret. She digested it for a while, then said in a trembling voice: "Why did you suddenly disappear back then? I thought you were dead. Zhou Qu, since you are alive, why didn't you come to me!"

Zhou Mubai smiled bitterly and said, "You don't know much about some situations at that time. After the incident between Martin Lu Dejin, I had to leave the United States. Later, there were many changes. Even I lost some memories. When I recovered, things and people had changed..."

He looked up and couldn't continue.

Under the woolen hat, Xu Donglai's face was so smiling that his eyebrows and eyes were squeezed together.

A bright smile is like a warm winter day.

However, Zhou Mubai had never seen Xu Donglai so sad.

After laughing, Xu Donglai cried again and choked and said, "It is said that when I was young, don't meet someone who was too amazing, otherwise no matter who you meet from now on, that person will always follow you. Zhou Qu, you ruined my life! Although I got married, had children, and later had grandchildren, you never left!"

The snow outside became heavier.

Zhou Mubai raised his head and looked at the university floating down, fearless and fearless, joy and sorrow.

Thousands of years have passed, and his footprints are spread all over the world, seeing mountains, rivers, and seeing wind, flowers, snow and moon.

I have seen the landslides and cracks, the sea water flows backwards, the snow is as heavy as a mat, and the wind and clouds are surging.

I have seen the bizarre world, all kinds of absurd things, and things that are hard to see in weird novels.

He had friends around him who could be entrusted with life and death, beautiful women who loved him to the core, and subordinates who regarded him as God's words to die. Time passed by, and the dust returned to the earth, and only he stayed in the world forever.

Old but not dead is a demon.

This is Zhou Mubai, a species of immortality.

The people around him left one by one, and in the end, he was even afraid of separation, so he was unwilling to leave any bonds with others.

He knew that Xu Donglai loved him. When he went to the ocean with those overseas students, although he was willing to socialize, he was not willing to have feelings for others, especially girls.

At that time, Xu Donglai was lively and cute, but his mind was a little confused. He took care of him occasionally, but he never expected that Xu Donglai would fall in love with him.

At that time, I originally wanted to spend her life with the little girl, but I didn’t expect that I could only leave the United States in a hurry. In a blink of an eye, decades passed, and even more unexpectedly, I could still see the people of that year in a few decades.

Xu Donglai cried for a long time, suddenly remembered something, and his withered arm suddenly grabbed Zhou Mubai's hand and said anxiously: "Why are you here for this time?"

Zhou Mubai smiled and said, "I'm here to study. You know, I have lived for too long, so I have to find something interesting to do."

Xu Donglai gritted his teeth and shook his head desperately: "No, no, this is not your personality, you still came because of that thing!"

Zhou Mubai nodded slightly, with a light amplitude, and even Xu Donglai doubted whether Zhou Mubai nodded too much.

Xu Donglai gritted his teeth and said, "Are you tired of living? Do you know how miserable Martin died back then? They would not allow such people to appear again!"

Zhou Mubai shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, you know my personality, I cherish my life."

Xu Donglai was sobbing: "I don't know why you did such a dangerous thing until now. Tell me why it is for you. Isn't it good to live a good life? It's not that I can't continue!"

Xu Donglai remembered the bitter longing for decades and couldn't help crying.

Zhou Mubai was stunned and ecstasy, yes, why?

Is a promise that a person who has been dead for more than a hundred years really worth doing this?

However, the words he said when he died in his arms are still surrounded by his ears.

"Zhou Qu, you are a person with great skills and should not be limited to this. You can do more and protect us has no meaning.

To live a good life in the United States, one must stand on the top of the mountain, shout for us, and fight for our rights.

Chinese people cannot live like cows and horses. We must stand up and live, we must have rights, and we must have dignity!

We escaped from the country not just to live, we have to live standing up!"

Yes, it's so good to live standing.

Zhou Mubai said softly: "Chinese people can live in the United States, but is that kind of life really worth our lives?"

Xu Donglai said anxiously: "But now is different from the past. Chinese people are able to live in the United States."

Zhou Mubai shook his head: "It's not enough. Our dignity depends on others' giving. One day they want to take it back, and if they want to transfer the disaster, they will pour a bucket of dirty water over them. Chinese people cannot hide and dare not hide. If they have no equal rights for a day, I will not give up. Anyway, I have enough time!"

Xu Donglai pursed his lips tightly and his face turned pale. She knew Zhou Mubai too much. Zhou Mubai looked kind and gentle, but in fact, there was no way to change what she decided.

She husky her throat: "What do you want to do?"

Zhou Mubai's eyes suddenly lit up. He didn't dare to trust others easily, but the old woman in front of him was someone he could fully trust. He held on to this idea for dozens or hundreds of years, and after he held it in for a long time, he always had to talk to someone.

"Donglai, although the United States today has problems with this and that, it is still extremely powerful. Confrontation is seeking death. What I think is indirectly attacking, so my idea is that Chinese people must have real leaders, be able to respond to them, be internationally renowned. Therefore, I want to be a top scientist so that they can be internationally renowned!"

Xu Donglai thought about it seriously, then shook his head: "If you want to be famous internationally, there are many ways. I don't recommend you to be a scientist."

Zhou Mubai was stunned: "Why?"

Xu Donglai said: "Don't we Chinese have top scientists?"

Zhou Mubai was stunned: "Of course there are, Gao Kun, Li Zhengdao, Ding Zhaozhong, Cui Ning, Chen Shengshen, etc., many of them have won the Nobel Prize."

"Then have they broken the confinement?" Xu Donglai sneered.

"Of course there isn't, but it may be because they don't..." Zhou Mubai couldn't continue to say it. It was related to the interests of the ethnic group. One person was unwilling, but no one was willing to do it if he had more than a dozen people?

Xu Donglai sneered: "Do you know what the idol of the younger generation of the United States is now?"

Zhou Mubai thought for a while: "Soldiers, scientists and politicians?"

Xu Donglai shook his head: "Wrong, what young people like now are entertainment stars and sports superstars. Scientists, haha, if a scientist dies, only people in the industry will care about it, but a star's scandal can be hyped up all over the world!"

Zhou Mubai was stunned. In just a few decades, the world had changed so much.

"...So, either you go into the entertainment industry, or play sports, or you make money hard and then package yourself. Young people are still very interested in rich people."
