Chapter 142: Last words: Which is more important, soul or recognition?
Rongrong opened her eyes with great effort. No, just one eye.
Of the pair of lively eyes that were once praised by Pang Zun, kissed by Du Xifei, and liked by Meng Yi, only one is left, and its surface is covered with scars.
If she could still vaguely see some figures before, now Rongrong has completely lost her sight.
"Yes, it's me!" Meng Yi was surprised to find that Rongrong had woken up. "By the way, Princess Ling! Let's go find Princess Ling!"
Seeing Rongrong waking up, Meng Yi, whose IQ returned to normal, suddenly thought of Hua Ling, who is known as the mother of life. At this time, she was sincerely grateful to Hua Ling for not leaving.
"Stop talking now. Princess Ling will definitely be able to cure you. When you get better, we will go home. You can do whatever you want."
She wiped the tears from her face, gathered her spirits and immediately wanted to get up and look for Hua Ling.
"No need to look for her. I have already brought Princess Ling here."
It was Pang Zun. He was the quickest in action among everyone. After hearing what Meng Yi said, he immediately pulled the tired Princess Ling over.
Pang Zun sniffed hard, covered his red eyes and roared, "Rongrong, I'm telling you, I've fixed the music box, and I'm waiting for you to go back and listen to it. You must not die!"
Du Xifei also staggered forward and grabbed Hua Ling's wrist, looking helpless, "Please, Princess Ling, you must save Rongrong!"
Seeing the pleading in the eyes of the three people, Hua Ling nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will try my best. I will never watch life die in front of me."
But just as Princess Ling stepped forward, Rongrong suddenly spoke up: "It's useless, Master Xifei, Princess Ling can't save me, have you forgotten? I'm just a——"
"A puppet without life or soul."
Everyone was stunned. Yes, it was a puppet. This could be seen just from the exposed gears.
"Don't lie! What doll? You are a living fairy. You are so lively, how can you be lifeless!" Meng Yi retorted angrily. She would never allow Rongrong to say that about her.
She knew clearly that Rongrong herself was the one who most desired life.
"...Really? It turns out that Ayi still thinks I am alive." The white light on Rongrong's chest lit up for a moment, and then she suddenly smiled. How good, how good.
"Okay, stop talking, I'll save you right now." Princess Ling stepped forward and placed her hand on Rongrong's broken body to feel it carefully.
Then she opened her eyes sharply, "No! No! I can't save her, she has no soul!"
"My resurrection technique requires both the soul and the body. I can barely repair the broken body with my immortal power, but without the soul, I really have no way to save it."
Hua Ling put down her hands in disappointment and covered her mouth with a sad face. She couldn't save this poor little doll, and she had to watch its life die.
"How could this happen..." Meng Yi couldn't stand for a moment and knelt down on the ruins again, tears filling his eyes again.
"Don't, don't cry." Even though she couldn't see Meng Yi's appearance, Rongrong could hear the suppressed sobs.
She wanted to raise one hand to wipe away the tears in Ayi's eyes, but suddenly found that her left hand was empty and had lost all feeling.
"It turns out that one of my hands is gone." Rongrong was stunned for a moment, then raised the other hand full of charred cracks with great effort.
The small hand gently groped Meng Yi's face, leaving one ridiculous black mark after another, until it touched the eye sockets and then wiped it carefully.
"Ayi, do you know? I'm actually very happy now. I've always liked you the most."
"Master Pangzun once said that I am just a puppet without emotions or thoughts of my own."
"Master Xifei also said that I have no soul and cannot think deeply."
"But don't I cry? Don't I laugh? Don't I have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness? I often wondered, is all this fake? So I was very confused during that time."
"Until you came and said you believed I had life and soul, I was so happy, so happy. It would be great if someone recognized me, even if it was just one person."
Rongrong's broken pupils reveal a happiness that can be seen directly. Even though her body is broken, one can still understand the happiness that surrounds her.
But Du Xifei and Pang Zun on the side regretted so much that they almost died. How stupid were they to say such things!
Why is it that even though we have been together for such a long time, I haven't noticed that she wants others' recognition so much, to acknowledge her existence as a fairy?
Meng Yi, who faced Rongrong directly, felt even more guilty than the other two fairies.
She didn't dare tell Rongrong that she said she had life just because she didn't want to admit that the nightmare spell would fail. But Rongrong took this selfish behavior seriously and even became the source of her happiness.
The horrible feeling of guilt almost swallowed Meng Yi completely, and all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away.
Rongrong felt that the more she wiped away the tears in her hands, the more panicked she became. She tried hard to force a weak smile, hoping that Meng Yi would not worry about her.
"Ayi is the most beautiful, please don't cry, okay? Now I can finally go to sleep. Ayi is the most powerful dream weaver in the fairyland, and she will also help me weave a very sweet dream, okay?"
"There must be Ayi, Master Xifei, Master Pangzun, and the creator, Master Lingyi. This way, Rongrong won't be afraid of being alone in her dreams."
With every word she spoke, the light from the gem on Rongrong's chest became dimmer, and her remaining hands and feet twitched slightly because of the pain, but she still stubbornly had on her sweet smile.
But she didn't know that half of her face had been blown to pieces. The forced smile was not only not sweet, but was filled with endless sadness, as if tearing at Meng Yi's heart.
Rongrong's hand, which had been raised for a long time, finally ran out of strength and fell suddenly onto Meng Yi's arm. She raised her head and stared blankly upwards, even though it was all pitch black in her sight.
"Ah~, I really want to go to the rock sea once, but I don't have the chance..."
"I'm really going to die..."
Looking at Rongrong's appearance, Pang Zun, who had been tense, finally couldn't control himself anymore, and endless thunder gathered behind him.
He angrily bombarded the statue of the leader of Lingxi Pavilion which had become a ruin. Regret, pain, powerlessness, and all kinds of negative emotions almost overwhelmed him.
He had clearly planned to bring Rongrong back after the election, and Rongrong was willing to call him master. Why was God so cruel to him!
"No, there is another way. Lingyi is Rongrong's creator. She must have a way to save Rongrong!" Du Xifei wiped the tears from her face, looking determined.
Since it was Duan Lingyi who gave Rongrong to her, she must have a way to save Rongrong. Du Xifei would never want Rongrong to die so tragically.
It was so hard to get Rongrong back, she was unwilling to give up!
"Okay, I'll go find her now." Pang Zun stopped going crazy when he heard that there was a way. As long as she could save Rongrong, he was willing to forgive her previous behavior.
"Don't look for me, I'm right here."
