Chapter 64 Chapter 64 "How could it be?" Bai Tianming...
"How could this be?" Bai Tianming asked in a surprised voice, with a barely perceptible smile, trying to lighten the overly sad atmosphere: "Aren't we meeting again now?"
However, the atmosphere of sadness became thicker and thicker.
The sky gradually darkened and a breeze blew past them.
"But you're too powerful," Abel said, practically leaning against him, with a tone of deep emotion. "You could abandon me at any time, and I'd never be able to find you, no matter how many people I sent to look for you."
Abel did look for Bai Tianming for a long time, but found nothing.
A long time ago, when Bai Tianming had just left him, he still had a glimmer of hope of finding Bai Tianming's newspaper, but the longer time passed, the more he got nothing.
He began to find it unbearable. He thought that no one could continue to persist in something and be full of hope without getting any reward for a long time.
He thought about giving up many times. Giving up looking for Bai Tianming would not be a big deal, because since he couldn't find Bai Tianming and Bai Tianming didn't come back, it meant that either Bai Tianming didn't want to see him or Bai Tianming couldn't see him.
In any case, Bai Tianming would not allow anything to happen to him or feel that he was wrong just because he gave up the search. He knew that Bai Tianming would not care about such trivial matters.
However, he couldn't really let himself give up on this matter.
Because the thought of giving up made him feel unwilling. Why could Bai Tianming just leave him alone, while he had to give up on his own if he couldn't find anyone else? What good would giving up do him?
Yes, if he continued to search, it would definitely cost him manpower and material resources, and it would take a lot of time. He might still find nothing in the future, just like he does now. He would still be disappointed, sad, painful, and would still get nothing.
But so what? He wouldn't gain anything if he gave up. No matter what he did, time would always pass. He couldn't just sit there and do nothing. As long as he was doing something, it would consume something. It would be better to spend it on this thing than on other things.
At least this was something he chose himself, and he would not be able to survive if he didn't do it. It was closely related to him. If it were something else, he would not be interested in it at all, and he would not want to make any effort.
Everything he had paid for other things was for the sake of doing this, for the sake of getting results in this matter. How could he put the cart before the horse? If he gave up this matter, everything would lose its meaning. He couldn't do that to himself.
He absolutely could not let Bai Tianming leave him and go to a place where he might find him without his knowledge, so as to avoid meeting him. Even if Bai Tianming was terribly strong, he was not willing to give up just like that.
Perhaps, from the moment Bai Tianming left him, he would never be able to separate his life from the three words Bai Tianming, let alone erase Bai Tianming from his memory and spirit.
As long as he remembers it, he will never give up.
But he got nothing, and it lasted for a long time, so long that when he first started, he couldn't imagine it would last so long. When he broke down, he felt like he was dying, but he would feel better after the breakdown.
The pain failed to completely destroy his spirit and will. It was not until today that he began to reluctantly remember that during the days when he could not find Bai Tianming, he had looked for many of Bai Tianming's "relics".
Those things were much easier to find than what Bai Tianming found. He subconsciously relied on these things to live, but he was unwilling to admit that these things were really relics. So he found so many things, but it seemed like he got nothing.
But he felt that he had gained nothing, because without finding Bai Tianming, he had nothing. The other things were just accessories, and only others thought of them as important.
Abel slowly tightened his arms, like a python about to strangle someone to death, wishing he could break Bai Tianming's neck, but he finally let go.
Because he knew that Bai Tianming would not die so easily, even if his neck was really broken. What's more, he couldn't bear to do it and he couldn't bring himself to do it.
How could he kill Bai Tianming, who he had finally found and was right in front of him? That would not only be unfair to Bai Tianming, but also to himself.
He had endured for such a long time, how could he just act as if nothing had happened in the blink of an eye?
Abel slowly withdrew his hand, feeling inexplicably unwilling.
He looked at Bai Tianming and thought to himself, why am I the only one suffering so much? Is there anything that could make you suffer as much or even more?
Abel closed his eyes and warned himself not to go crazy. If Bai Tianming was really in pain, it would not be because of others, but only because of Bai Tianming himself.
If one day, Abel really has the ability to force Bai Tianming to feel pain, Abel will only feel more painful when watching from the side, and he will not be happy.
Why make things difficult for yourself?
Abel opened his eyes, took a step back, and stared at Bai Tianming, as if in an instant, he saw a long time ago through the long time. His expression was solemn and serious, as if he was not thinking about anything, and as if he had become one with himself many years ago.
"I swear," Abel recited his previous oath bit by bit. For a moment, even Bai Tianming seemed to think that time was actually a long time ago. "From today on, I will be loyal to you and never look back."
An exceptionally bright smile suddenly broke out on Abel's extremely pale face, like a poisonous snake ready to strike, with all its venom suppressed in its fangs.
On the surface, he seemed harmless, but in reality, only he knew how much effort he had put into retracting his fangs and venom and hiding them where no one else could see.
"I thought that if you were alive, I would kill you even if it meant we both perished. Even if I was the only one who died in the end, and not even a hair of yours would be messed up, but now I've changed my mind."
Abel slowly suppressed the smile on his face, and Bai Tianming blinked his eyes, suddenly coming back to his senses from his trance.
"I don't want to care about the past. After all, no matter how painful it was, it's over. I just hope that you really come back and won't disappear so easily again." Abel's eyes were no longer red, but tears came out again as he spoke.
He blinked his eyes, tears welling up in his eyes that he couldn't hold back, he frowned and almost choked, but fortunately he had finished what he was saying now, and it didn't affect his expression.
Bai Tianming looked at him with the compassionate eyes of a statue of a deity. He took another step forward and gently hugged him. He could feel his body tremble for a moment, just like his voice. Then he said more gently, "As you wish, I am really back, and I won't disappear easily again."
Abel closed his eyes and hugged Bai Tianming. It was as if Bai Tianming had just left many years ago and came back the next day to appear in front of him. He felt happy and that everything had settled.
He spoke slowly with a heartfelt emotion and gratitude, "Actually, when I saw you for the first time, I wanted to rush over to you right away, but I couldn't. There were too many people around you. You don't need me, and they shouldn't be here. But now nothing matters. As long as you're here, everything is fine."
Bai Tianming patted him on the back gently and replied with certainty, "I'm here."
Abel refused to let go and just said, "That's great."
It was a long time before they separated.
It was completely dark. The golden flowers not far away were swaying slowly in the wind. Suddenly, many colorful bubbles appeared on the ground, and these bubbles were everywhere.
Abel looked at Bubble and said to Bai Tianming, "Maria's memory of the mouse should be in here. Let's go look for it."
Bai Tianming nodded: "Okay."
They had just taken a few steps inside when some bubbles suddenly hit them, popped, and then came out of them and burst again in front of them.
Bai Tianming suddenly saw——
"I heard that at the edge of a distant cliff and waterfall, there is a handsome and powerful man. He doesn't believe in any gods, but he can control other races to follow him..."
"Who is that person?"
"It's the leader of Cliff Falls."
"What's his name?"
"It's bright during the day."
This was the first time Abel heard people talk about Bai Tianming when he passed by a relatively prosperous tribe.
"I met a man who is beautiful, strong, intelligent, and kind. He takes care of me and thinks of me, never putting me in any difficult position. I want to follow him."
"Have you thought it through?"
"I've thought it through."
"Then do you still remember the oath you swore here?"
"I remember."
"If you can, go ahead and follow Him, son. You can get what you want if you just go."
The statue of the Mother of Black Goats sat on a high platform, and the shepherd was kneeling on a cushion with his head lowered. His face was calm, but his expression was firm. His words revealed the decision he had made long ago.
From then on, the shepherd followed Bai Tianming.
"Tomorrow, the Shoggoths will have eaten up all the nearby forests. There will be no more food left here. I must start looking for new food for the Shoggoths from now on."
"Where are you going?"
"There's a denser forest in the canyon not far away. I want to go there and take a look. If there are enough forests there, I'll move them over here and use them to house the Shoggoths."
"It's good to have a solution, but you seem to still have concerns?"
"If there really is a denser forest there, it won't be possible to move there in a short time. I'm afraid I'll have to spend some time there. During this time, I can hand over the work to others, but who will guarantee my safety?"
