Chapter 066 Regret for Me
[Ding, the triggering task is completed, and the rewards are being distributed...]
[It is detected that the host's current condition is not suitable for the fusion of bone shrinking skills, and the reward will be postponed. 】
The system's cold prompt sound suddenly rang out, breaking the silent atmosphere.
Hei Xia Zi said: "There should be many people like Bai Gui, but there has been no news about them."
For ordinary people, it is reasonable to be completely unaware of the situation and not have any news leaked out, after all, their pursuits and levels are different.
But he and the mute were professional tomb robbers. They had committed hundreds of robberies, but they had never found any information related to the Twelve Ancestral Witches in a tomb.
Not to mention that the mute is from the Zhang family. This family has been around for thousands of years. They have been doing underground work and guarding the bronze door deep underground.
It is impossible that the Zhang family is unaware of the existence of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
But the mute suffers from amnesia and doesn't know the hidden secrets of the Zhang family. Maybe he once knew some of them but has forgotten them.
Although Bai Gui did not say it explicitly, Hei Xia Zi sensed from it the clear division of the echelons. To people like Bai Gui, tomb robbers like them were just ordinary people.
Zhang Qiling shook his head, "I don't know."
Through the touch of his clasped palms, he could feel that Sang Mo's body temperature was returning to normal, and it seemed that the marrow cleansing and bone strengthening were about to be completed.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Qiling added: "Maybe I forgot."
It was not surprising to get such an answer. Hei Xiazi just said in a deep voice: "We can't let the Nine Sects and those who pursue immortality know about Sang Mo's ability."
Although the Nine Gates have become increasingly low-key in recent years, except for a very few people, everyone else in the Nine Gates has pursued immortality and done too many immoral and even cruel things for the sake of immortality.
That year, he was sent by Chenpi A Si to help the Huo family deal with the unsolved case of fourteen corpses. Although the building was abandoned and suffered a fire, it was just a man-made burn to cover up the filth and darkness inside.
The Huo family is conducting an experiment in longevity.
It was also because of this time that he was contaminated by the evil spirit in the ancient well, which caused his eye disease to worsen and he was put on a wanted warrant.
Although it is meaningless to say this now, even the glamorous Huo family can conduct longevity experiments in secret, and other families are not much better.
Hei Xia Zi knew very well that Fourth Grandpa Chenpi had also been seeking immortality. The older a person gets, the less they want to die easily.
After all, he and the mute have remained unchanged in appearance and have not aged in decades. How could the cunning Chenpi miss the opportunity to pursue immortality?
Chenpi is exactly 89 years old this year, so naturally he wants to give it a try.
Speaking of the underwater tomb, he also received a letter from Chen Pi before, in which he talked about his upcoming birthday and asked him to come to his place for a drink when he was free.
Thinking of this, Hei Xia Zi pondered for a moment and said, "We have things we need to do. It is actually safest to let him follow Bai Gui."
"He has already entered the sight of the Wu family. Wei Song and his men are still trapped in the Ju Mang inheritance tomb. Now is the best time to let Sang Mo follow the white ghost and get away."
In the end, he made a choice. Now that he was curious, he couldn't just let it exist.
Because he already knows clearly what will happen if he explores further. It is an emotional involvement, which may also become his weak point.
In that case, let’s stop here.
Let Sang Mo leave. With Ju Mang's inheritance, Sang Mo is no longer from the same world as them, or it should be said that he was not from the same world at all.
"Dumb, if you lose your memory again, you won't be able to protect him."
"I can't protect him either. Maybe he will come to protect us, and we will get hurt even more."
At this point, Hei Xia Zi murmured quietly, "Making up for regrets will only create more regrets..."
Zhang Qiling lowered his eyes, and his clasped hands continued to increase their strength, his eyes flickering. What the blind man said was very right, and it was precisely because it was very right that he could accurately hit the sore spot.
He suddenly felt that this world was indeed vulnerable to a combination of coincidences.
Not long ago, he decided to give it a try with Sang Mo. Before he even got a reply, Sang Mo accepted the complete inheritance of Ju Mang and fell into a coma.
If Sang Mo, who has received the complete inheritance of Ju Mang, still insists on seeking death as before, it seems that he can only protect him until he loses his memory.
Although before making the decision, he had imagined that perhaps this serious attempt could only last until he lost his memory.
If Sang Mo refused, he had already prepared this sentence: Try it with me until I lose my memory. If I forget you then, you pursue death. Maybe one day I will get the news of your death, and the regret will be left to me.
At least he lived his life tasting regret every moment until he lost his memory again.
Zhang Qiling understood one thing when he was smoking. What Sang Mo wanted was not redemption. Rather, he wanted to build a hub so that Sang Mo could find a reason to live.
In fact, all Sang Mo wanted was for them to have no regrets, so Sang Mo left these regrets to himself. He lived decadently and aimlessly, but as long as he lived he would come into contact with them and would always be in pain. He could only choose to seek death.
He didn't want to do anything else. Any small action he took could cause a chain reaction and create some regrets.
He was stuck in the death-defying cage he had built for himself.
Zhang Qiling slowly let go of Sang Mo's hand and said calmly, "Then wait until the next time I lose my memory."
Sang Mo has always been the one taking the initiative, so this time let him take the initiative to approach Sang Mo. No matter Sang Mo is staying in place or walking forward, he will move closer.
Although...it may be very short, but no matter how short it is, it is still an active experience.
Hei Xia Zi smacked his lips and wanted to smoke again, but unfortunately he had no cigarettes to relieve his sorrow.
He looked at the unconscious Sang Mo through his black sunglasses, his eyes were mysterious and deep.
For a moment, silence spread again.
The mute and the blind just stood there quietly looking at Sang Mo, until his breathing suddenly became irregular. The fingers hanging by his sides moved slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes as his eyelids moved slightly.
Those eyes were not as lifeless as usual. Perhaps it was because he had just woken up and was still confused. The confusion in his eyes was clearly visible.
But this confusion seemed to last too long.
With Sang Mo's ability to manage his emotions and expressions, how could he allow confusion to last for dozens of seconds or even more than a minute?
Hei Xiazi frowned slightly.
Zhang Qiling's eyes dulled for a moment, and he called out, "Sang Mo?"
Sang opened his mouth and said: Who?
But he found that no sound came out. Sang Mo raised his hand and rubbed the sore temples, then opened his mouth and said: Sang Mo? Looks so familiar?
This silent lip movement made Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi stunned.
What's going on? I seem to be mute? 】
[Host, you wake up!] Tongzi immediately released the bone shrinking skill to fuse the two. 】
Sang Mo propped himself up and sat up from the ground, [Tongzi? You tell me what happened first. I remember that I seemed to be in the forbidden area of Dead Man’s Valley, and I seemed to be bitten by Xiangliu…】
【Host? do not you remember? 】
[Host, wait a minute, Tongzi will give you a full body check now! 】
[My name is Sang Mo?] This should be my name. The two people in front of me look familiar, as if I know them. Tongzi, who are they? 】
[Forget it, it doesn’t matter. I remember that Xiangliu bit me, so why am I not dead yet? 】
"!!!"
Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi looked at each other. It seemed that Sang Mo had lost his memory?
Zhang Qiling subconsciously recalled the panic from before and whispered four words, "Bloodline conflict?"
Hei Xia Zi opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything.
