"You don't welcome me?"
"Should I welcome you?"
"You should welcome me."
"I don't welcome you."
Cheng Shi stared at the person in front of him for a long time, until the other party shrugged helplessly and rubbed his nose red. His solemn expression finally eased a little, and he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"You look very tired. It seems that the road ahead is not easy."
The visitor smiled:
"That's my way, not yours."
"[Existence] is in a scattered state, right? Well, that's right, so...
Which state of me are you in?
Cheng Shi! "
Cheng Shi looked at the other person with burning eyes, and following his gaze, the person standing in front of him was...
Cheng Shi!
Another Cheng Shi!
A person who came from nowhere...Cheng Shi!
This Cheng Shi is 90% similar to the current Cheng Shi, but his face looks more weathered and his temperament is more refined.
Time has left many marks on his skin, and every line and texture seems to be filled with hardships and difficulties that ordinary people cannot understand.
There was a horrible scar on his neck, which ran from his collarbone to behind his ear. It looked as hideous as a madly twisting centipede, and was terrifying.
His left shoulder was sunken three inches, making the clothes that could have shown off his perfect posture wrinkled and losing their symmetrical beauty.
His right hand was shaking uncontrollably, his legs looked a little lame, and there was almost no intact part on his body, except for his eyes!
Only those eyes are still bright!
At this moment, those deceitful eyes that should have been filled with lies, ridicule, mockery and disdain are now filled with sincerity, nostalgia, memories and calmness!
He looked at Cheng Shi and smiled brightly.
"If you insist on asking this, I probably won't be able to answer it, because I don't know where I come from.
Maybe, it is your past, or maybe, it is your future.
You know, it depends on how [They] define it.”
Cheng Shi’s eyes narrowed.
"Did they send you here?"
"No, no, no, they don't care about me anymore. I came here on my own."
What do you mean they have ignored you?
What do you mean you came here by yourself?
How did you get here?
Did you mess up the [memory] or mess up the [time]?
Cheng Shi saw Cheng Shi's confusion and laughed.
"Don't think I'm that awesome. Although I have the confidence to face them, they are still them after all, and I am not them yet.
I just saw a gap in the collection of [Memory], and then I jumped in to take a look.
I didn't expect to see you.
Hahahaha, it turns out that this gap appeared because of you.
Interesting, very interesting. Have you encountered any interesting things recently? Tell me about them and make me happy. "
Seeing another self laughing so hard that tears came out, Cheng Shi's face turned very dark.
"Are you here just to laugh at me?"
“Although it wasn’t at the beginning, it is now, hahahaha.”
"How can you be the same as Him?"
"That's not a proper question. If I were not of the same character as Him, then you should ask that."
“…That’s right.”
The two Cheng Shi suddenly looked at each other, and then burst out laughing at the same time.
The tacit understanding from the same soul resonates to a climax at this moment. I don't know whether it is to find joy in suffering or to be heartless. In short...
One laughed so hard that he pounded the ground, the other laughed so hard that he crowed.
The laughter lasted for a long time, until both of them were tired of laughing and it gradually subsided.
Cheng Shi's doubts were slightly dispelled, and he vaguely felt the intention of the other Cheng Shi.
He is not here to help me, nor to spur me on, nor to hinder me.
He may have just discovered something fun, and then discovered that behind this fun was his past self.
No matter how "They" define it, in Cheng Shi's eyes, the Cheng Shi in front of him is indeed the self at the other end of the long river of time.
How interesting.
I saw my "future" self.
He shook his head and laughed, relaxed his body, and sat down in the void.
Cheng Shi on the opposite side looked at him with interest, his eyes full of emotion.
"It hurts, right?" Cheng Shi said to Big Cheng Shi.
"Hmm? You mean this?"
Da Chengshi reached out and touched the horrible scar on his neck and smiled.
There is something evil hidden behind his smile.
"Left behind from the fight with Poison. Well, I don't know if you've seen her, but anyway, it's better not to see her."
Cheng Shi stared at Big Cheng Shi for a long while, then said speechlessly, "Tell the truth!"
"Alas, it's boring for you to be like this. You should learn how to find joy in adversity.
Okay, okay, don’t stare at me. It’s fake, fake, okay? I asked someone to tattoo it for me.
How about it? Doesn’t it look tough? I suggest you get one too. This way, you’ll save a lot of trouble every time you start a trial.”
"......"
I knew it.
When Cheng Shi saw a smile flash in his future self's eyes, he felt that Cheng Shi was about to become dishonest.
Although the talent of the Master of Deception will be invalid when they meet, I always feel that what the other person says is true...
But, seeing through oneself doesn’t seem to be too difficult.
"You're not pretending to be so miserable just to get me to sympathize with you, are you?"
