Chapter 250 Epilogue: Beautiful Dream (Part 3) (Inverted V) [All Living Beings]…
No one living in the city has a smooth life. They are just poor people trying to survive in the abyss. They may lose their lives and everything at any time. He Yuezhe is no exception.
So she never asked for love from her mother or father. A coward, an abuser, neither of them had the ability to love.
But seeing her mother becoming more and more decadent, He Yuezhe couldn't bear it anymore. She killed her father, put the knife into her mother's hand while she was stunned, touched her head, and told her that nothing is impossible to overcome and she should become strong.
After escaping from this home that was not really a home at all, He Yuezhe walked aimlessly on the street and met the woman who changed her life.
He Fangying.
This woman has a nice, yet somewhat old-fashioned name.
With white hair that she is proud of, somewhat cloudy eyes, and a face full of wrinkles, He Fangying is like all the old people, but she is also different from them. She has many ear piercings and wears earrings that she said young people wear but He Yuezhe has never seen before. There are always a few days every year when she will change into clothes that He Yuezhe has never seen before, wear a bright red scarf, and a few badges. She said that is her belief, the kind that she will take to the grave even after death.
He Fangying is a confident, outspoken person with a childish temper, but also gentle and kind.
In this cannibalistic city, she seems like an alien.
Later, He Fangying taught the skill of making puppets to He Yuezhe. He Yuezhe worked on it for several days and finally made her first puppet.
Looking at the doll, He Yuezhe cried for the first time in front of He Fangying.
He Fangying quickly asked her what was wrong.
But He Yuezhe just shook his head, hugged the doll tightly, and asked why she was still not awake.
What does the appearance of the puppet mean to He Yuezhe?
Learned a new skill? Got a new partner?
No, that just meant that He Fangying was leaving and they would be separated forever.
So He Yuezhe begged He Fangying to use the [Dharma] on the puppet, making the puppet truly "come alive".
In the days that followed, He Yuezhe forced herself to transfer all her feelings for He Fangying to the doll. She asked herself to treat the doll the same way she treated He Fangying, but she could not treat the doll as He Fangying.
Until the day she had anticipated finally came.
He Fangying was stabbed by her crazy mother. The injury was not serious, and He Yuezhe treated her wound in time.
But He Fangying shook her head. She held He Yuezhe's hand, just like when she taught her to make a doll. She held He Yuezhe's hand and pulled out the knife she had prepared long ago, which was hanging on her waist. She held He Yuezhe's hand tightly, stabbing the bandage, the flesh, and the blood vessels one by one, making it impossible for her to break free.
Blood splattered all over He Fangying's most precious granddaughters, Xiaobao and Shiliu. She touched their faces for the last time, gently wiped away the blood. He Fangying smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, grandma also wants to be with you, but unfortunately, unfortunately, we can only do this."
When He Yuezhe came to his senses again, his body was already filled with a strange feeling. It was the [skills], [living beings] and [dharmas] that once belonged to He Fangying.
He Fangying died, killed by herself. He Yuezhe collapsed when he saw himself covered in blood.
Fortunately, in the dawn, she saw the doll, the doll that would never leave her and would be her lifelong best friend. They had made an agreement, they had made an agreement, and no one would break the agreement. Yes, after all, none of them had the qualifications to break the agreement.
Afterwards, He Yuezhe and the doll depended on each other for survival. They were the ones who had accompanied each other for the longest time in each other's lives and understood each other the most.
Being a relative is not a good job. Every relative of He Yuezhe has their own tragic ending, so He Yuezhe made many friends, and friends gradually became the most important people in her life.
She once thought that the puppet and she were best friends, but until now, when they met again, He Yuezhe discovered that the puppet actually wanted to break the contract.
Why?
She had clearly promised herself that she would always be with herself and be her best friend. She had done it herself, and there was clearly only herself in her life.
But just when He Yuezhe was angry, a tear fell from the puppet's eyes.
Only then did she realize that the puppet wanted to break the contract not for any other reason, but because of her plan. The last step of her plan required her sacrifice.
But it was too late, too late, a voice said, she had already stepped onto the bridge of death, she was about to die!
“…”
“…”
No, He Yuezhe shook his head and retorted firmly, you are wrong.
"Thank you, my Veil Star," she immediately opened her eyes, tightly grasped the puppet's tearful hand, and then hugged the cold puppet, which looked just like it hadn't woken up yet. "I've found my way home. I've found my home."
My plan never requires anyone to sacrifice for me or for us, He Yuezhe said, because we trust each other, because we are close friends, so no matter what, we share the joys and sorrows, we will overcome thousands of dangers together, no matter how hard and difficult the future is, as long as we are together, we will definitely win.
There were little bits of light on her body.
For the first time, He Yuezhe activated the skill that He Fangying had given her with her life.
[Living beings] use their own lives to give life to any object.
[All dharmas] use their own "souls" to give "souls" to "people" who have "life".
This was a stone that He Fangying threw into her calm lake several years ago, and now, the ripples belonging to it are finally spreading.
“Buzz——!!!”
A deafening buzzing sound suddenly filled the entire house, the lights hanging from the ceiling shook, and the TV screen began to flicker and make noise.
It does not take much life to give life to a "newborn", but it takes an extremely large amount of life to give life to a "dead person".
The light gradually filled the entire house, bit by bit. Everywhere you looked, there was nothing but the gentle light.
A huge amount of life escaped from He Yuezhe's body, and was plucked into strands of silk by her fingers, which wrapped around the doll and penetrated into her limbs and bones.
——"Pomegranate, why are you always frowning lately? What's wrong? Are you worried about something?"
——"Well, sort of."
——"Can I help?"
——“…”
——"Tell me about it."
——"Dean Jiang, I..."
——"Pomegranate, speak boldly, facing me, is there anything you are still worried about?"
——"Well, Dean Jiang, if I want to save a friend, I need many, many lives."
——"Life, that's easy. Pomegranate, my daughter, you still remember her, go find her, she can give you what you want."
At that time, He Yuezhe didn't know what Jiang Ruoshi meant by this sentence. When she stood in front of the once lifeless mass grave and looked at the empty space, countless souls suddenly appeared in her normal sight. They were howling in pain with strong vitality.
Later she learned that the mass grave had been demolished to build a branch of Jinli Company.
The people who were originally piled up in the mass grave were all buried underground, arranged in a strange way, and Jiang Ruoshi's daughter was sitting on the construction materials piled at the door, looking at the sky.
The two looked at each other tacitly, then entered the mass grave.
Jiang Haiyao is responsible for introducing each person's life story, while He Yuezhe is responsible for entering their memories and then helping them to be liberated and regain vitality.
After using part of her life force to preserve Jiang Haiyao's body, He Yuezhe felt for the first time that salvation was actually so "beautiful" for them who lived in the city.
Because their bodies will always decay, but their souls will always exist, which causes them to suffer constant torture, and salvation is undoubtedly the best way to save them.
Thinking back to the present, He Yuezhe looked at the sky full of lights, and in a trance, he heard people singing in his ears.
"Sleep, sleep, my dear baby. I will bless you and celebrate for you. The beauty I see and the beauty you see are all my pride in you..."
The singing was soothing and melodious, and during the singing, phantoms of people appeared in the house, holding hands.
"Sleep, sleep, my dear baby..."
Covered in cold sweat, He Yuezhe's body had exhausted all the vitality stored in advance. Now she was using her own vitality to awaken the puppet.
The lullaby was only sung softly, but she felt as if she would fall asleep forever in the next second.
"Hu, hu..." He Yuezhe exhaled a few breaths in pain.
Within the sight, the phantoms of people were getting closer and closer, and they were about to hug He Yuezhe in the next second.
It was almost there, so almost there, and she would wake up!
But why, why, no, that's not right, so that's how it is...
Just when He Yuezhe was about to fall asleep, a hand gently rested on her shoulder.
"Xiaozhe, I'm here. I'll always be behind you. Don't be afraid. Don't look back. Just do it bravely."
"Warning! Warning! The petri dish in question has been used!"
Then, another one.
"Captain, no matter what you want to do, I will accompany you. As long as you say it, I will take action for you."
"Warning! Warning! Tang Xiqin's petri dish has been used!"
One.
"Captain, keep going! Don't give up! There are delicious foods ahead. We are here with you and cheering for you!"
"Warning! Warning! Ban Weile's petri dish has been used!"
Another one.
"Captain, I believe in you."
"Warning! Warning! Yuan Yang's petri dish has been used!"
Another one.
"Pomegranate, grandma will always be your strongest supporter, so you must live happily, laugh, laugh, laugh out loud, and tell those enemies that they can never defeat you!"
"Warning! Warning! ■■■'s petri dish is being used!"
“…”
The hand transmitted vitality, and He Yuezhe opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, but he did not look back.
"Warning! Warning! The petri dish count has reached zero!"
"Xiaozhe, I wish you peace and safety."
"Captain, I wish you a happy life."
"Captain, I wish you happiness!"
"Captain, I wish you all the best."
"Pomegranate, I wish you..."
Because she knew that what she should do now was not to look back and thank them, but to use the energy they left for her, as they said, not to give up, not to be afraid, not to look back, to believe in herself, and to bravely complete this plan.
“…”
Yes, this...
"plan".
This is a "plan" that has taken every possible measure into account.
This "plan" can only be guessed when death comes face to face with her.
She used the idea that the doll was willing to sacrifice itself for her to create this world and projected everything in that world onto it. Then, when she saw He Fangying, she would naturally want to save He Fangying. Once she saved He Fangying, she would inevitably come into contact with Jiang Ruoshi, who was He Fangying's good friend and her former dean.
If she comes into contact with Jiang Ruoshi, she will definitely dissuade Jiang Ruoshi from doing stupid things again. As long as Jiang Ruoshi is not dead, she will always have the opportunity to follow Jiang Ruoshi to the mass grave and get to know Jiang Yao.
Her acquaintance with Jiang Yao also laid the groundwork for her later desire to save the dolls and her need for vitality in order to liberate the souls of those in the mass graves.
This enormous vitality and her denial of her past desire to sacrifice the doll led her to misunderstand whether she could use this vitality to save the doll, which almost led to her death due to the exhaustion of her own vitality.
So at this moment, the "petri dishes" from her friends happened to be triggered.
As objects that carry a soul's past and all its energy, their petri dishes provide her with the life force she needs to save the dolls.
And because she possesses the form of their "creations", that is, the jars containing the little people, then the excess energy can be used to fill their creations and their hopes, so that their world can naturally return to normal without their own control, instead of swallowing up the platform.
In this way, the dolls will not die, she will not die, and those worlds and her friends will survive in a new and hopeful manner.
All problems are solved, and no one is hurt. Everything is the best outcome.
And this is not the result of her efforts alone.
It's them, it's everyone.
“…”
“…”
"Can I be friends with you?" the doll, who had already woken up, asked with red eyes.
The scene around me began to change and distort, gradually turning into a sea of white.
He Yuezhe glanced back at the five people who were about to disappear and were looking at her with smiles, then turned back to look at the doll and took her hand: "Of course, we have been friends for a long time."
"Ding Dong! You have fulfilled Star's wish: Let the girl grow up well!"
"Thanks."
"Ding Dong! You have fulfilled Star's hidden wish: to become your friend!"
"You're welcome," He Yuezhe smiled, "Xing, you're welcome. I'm very happy to be your friend."
"..." Xing was silent, then laughed, "I'm also very happy to be friends with you."
He Yuezhe opened his arms and Xing rushed in. The two hugged each other, and the surroundings finally turned completely white.
Then, because of He Yuezhe's tears, the scene was like ink, spreading out into a rainbow of colors.
This seemed to indicate that everything they had just done was not just the "final step" in her plan, but also the first step they had taken in ■■...
"first step".
