Human touch is what Li Yi lacks the most, in fact, sometimes, there is a way to save others, why not do it? Although it will be hard and time-consuming, the soul will be satisfied, and the heart needs light to fill it, at least for him.

Li Yi forcibly intervened and stopped his rescue, allowing Tom to carry on the cruel drama, which deeply stabbed him in the heart, just like he personally contributed to this tragedy, there is no difference between inaction and killing with his own hands.

He decisively abandoned the dark Li Yi and went to find his own light.

But where is the light? Something that is already illusory is more like a symbol, just like the sun in the sky, the plants, trees, people and animals on the ground have not been in close contact with it, but they can feel the warmth of the sun, let all things germinate, let the frozen river flow again, make the world brighter, and the darkness and coldness are dispelled.

"It's ridiculous, in the past, I would never think like this, it was Li Yi who taught me how to think, how to use my brain, but now I have turned my back on him, maybe people with different beliefs will eventually part ways, in fact, in fact, I have always wanted to accept it, but after all, it has not changed into the way he hoped, the state of mind of the strong." Wrapped in a gray coat, Dionysus, who was not accompanied by Li Yi and Andru, looked a little depressed, and the lonely life without friends was unbearable for a person like him.

Loneliness is a kind of pain, no one to accompany you, no one to talk to, the quiet around wants to make you crazy, at this time, only by recalling the previous life, fully immersing your mind in the past, can you alleviate the loneliness in your heart.

It's the same thing with some animals that are kept alone in cages and die quickly.

"Alas, it's useless to think so much, first accept the second stage of the inheritance, my teacher, the ancient explorer Saint Romain, has been accompanied by asceticism, abstinence and dieting all his life, although it is not necessary to abide by his teachings to obtain his inheritance, but each stage of the inheritance has to go through a lot of hard work to obtain." Dionysus said to himself, the first stage of the inheritance was a library and a sealed sheep body man Pan Youling, in order to get this inheritance, he was bitten countless times by the poisonous snake in the test, then the scorching sun, and then it turned into the cold of the ice and snow, all kinds of natural harsh environment tortured a circle, and finally passed, these are all illusions, but it feels real, just to find people with strong willpower.

It's no wonder that if Li Yi leaves a legacy, he will definitely set a test, find someone with a similar personality to himself, just like a fellow practitioner, and also have the idea of pinning hopes on him to complete his unfinished ambition.

"What kind of person does this lord want me to be? What do you want me to fulfill his wishes? "Dionysus once again crossed the mountains of Mirassa in the south of the continent into a valley perennially covered in darkness, where tall pines were hundreds of meters high, four or five people hugging each other, thick pine leaves blocking the sun, and the ground was covered with yellow pine needles, which were soft and soft under his feet, as if he were stepping on snow.

Dionysus carried a white iron oil lamp in his hand, illuminating the forest that was pitch black even in the daytime, there was no wind and birdsong, the strong fragrance of matsutake mushrooms emanated from under the thick pine needles, and the smell of fermented pine leaves and mushrooms steamed up little by little, making people drowsy, but Dionysus did not pick it, and was even careful not to change any environment, because there were people who were very important to him, his teacher Saint Romain, was even more important than Li Yi. In the middle of the quiet and dark forest, a small tombstone, hidden by fallen leaves, reads: Here lies an old man who is admired in front of him.

The bell of the deep bell rings like a dragon's groan,

The fog and mist are long and ochre returns,

There are hermits in the green pine forests,

Wear a robe and sleep with the moon.

I don't know if the owner of the tomb erected it for himself in front of him, or if it was written by relatives and friends after death, but in this dark pine forest, not only is it eerie, but it makes people feel the tranquility after death from the bottom of their hearts.

When he walked into the tombstone, suddenly the earth trembled slightly, of course, he was also mentally prepared, the soil around him cracked, and three stone statues emerged from the ground.

The first stone statue has missing both ears, leaving only two terrible hollows, representing deafness.

The second stone statue has indeed two eyes, still terrible hollows, representing blindness.

The third statue has nothing in its mouth, and certainly no teeth or tongue, representing a loss of taste.

"I went through pain to gain strength, and when I received the first stage of inheritance, I was temporarily deprived of my hearing, and the world fell silent, and I finally understood the pain of deaf people, unable to communicate with people, unable to say what I thought in my heart, now is the second stage, according to the meaning of the stone statue, I will lose my eyesight, no matter how much, it is better to do something than to wander around with nothing." Dionysus was not used to having a lot of colorful thoughts in his head all day long, and like Li Yi, his head was full.

He occasionally thinks of Abby, just like suffering from secondary two diseases, he always thinks that his future girlfriend is of course Abby, and even a little self-righteous, and begins to fantasize about all kinds of details of holding hands together, and he thinks that he will become a top explorer in the continent again, and he can be on an equal footing with Li Yi in the future, instead of dragging behind him like a follower, with the identity of a top explorer, he also has the qualifications to be worthy of Abby, which is a small delusion in the young man's heart.

Dionysus was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and this kind of thinking is also very appropriate for this age.

What is maturity, say a few beautiful words, have the courage to show yourself in front of everyone If it is maturity, then the so-called maturity is too simple and easy to achieve, in fact, every move can reflect the youth or maturity, as far as women are concerned, that is charm, in terms of fruits, that is fragrance and color, as far as men are concerned, it is more.

From the moment Dionysus left Li Yi's team, he thought that he had suddenly become independent, that is, he was mature, and he could accept the next stage with his own ability, the inheritance of Saint Roman, and his gold-level primary-level spirit also allowed him to enter the ranks of the middle-level explorers of the continent, and then, it seemed that he could also make up his own mind.

But now, in this quiet pine forest, in this valley isolated from the rest of the world, there are so many thoughts, like glass beads bumping into my mind, and my mind is being pulled into a thousand threads in the uninterrupted echo.

To be exact, it is confused, confused because he does not know himself, does not understand others, has no friends, he longs to be recognized, to be needed, to be regarded as the center, to have in-depth communication with others, so that what he thinks can be confided, especially with those beautiful girls, such as Abby, he will not be ashamed because he is a man but exposes his weak heart.

"After receiving the inheritance, where do I go from here? Li Yi I don't want to see him anymore, is this an escape? I don't want to go back to Sky Academy, there is nothing for me, and even the memories are very thin. I want to go to Kurosawa Academy to find Abby, but what should I say when I meet, after all, I don't know what she thinks, will she be disgusted by such a rash visit? Alas, forget it, wait until the end of the inheritance to think about it, there is no clue now. Dionysus shook his head after all, putting these things aside, there were more important things at the moment.

"Dear Saint Roman, the first spirit I inherited from you, and the first important partner in my life, Pan, has reached the initial stage of the gold level, and now I need the second stage of inheritance, so disturb." Dionysus bowed deeply to the tombstone and said respectfully.

The tombstone was silent, but the surrounding environment was distorted, and his eyes suddenly went dark, and he was temporarily deprived of his vision.

"My inheritor, hearing this recording, it means that you have begun to accept the second stage of inheritance, don't be afraid, don't panic, what you stick to in your heart is your goal, even if it is wrong, even if it does not make you admired by thousands of people, even if it is a childish and ridiculous idea in childhood, but always follow your heart, you will not have other regrets, if you always follow your heart, you will not lose yourself, and it is not easy to do regrets." His body would sink, and Dionysus felt that he was put on a pair of stone shackles, more than a hundred pounds, and he was so oppressed that he could not breathe, and the rough stone was against his body, cold and hard. And I automatically have the rules of this inheritance in my mind, or I know the procedure I have to go through.

Step by step, walking in an unknown direction, the muddy swamp under my feet, the feeling of hunger and cold gradually spread from my stomach to my whole body.

Hunger continued to gnaw at Dionysus, dark, muddy, and cold more like an appendage of hunger, and there was nothing more painful than hunger, which was directly applied to the whole body, the absence of man's most primitive desires.

Dark, cold, and damp, he felt an irrepressible fear in his heart, and he thought he was mature half an hour ago, but now, his legs were trembling, and the thought of maturity had long been thrown out of the clouds.

Then something even more uncomfortable and disgusting happened, as the mud enveloped his body, and a cold snake crawled around on his skin, making a second type of contact with him, the rough scales of the snake's skin cutting blood marks on his skin. The little cold toads, this disgusting brownish-black thing that burrowed in the mud wrapped around its body, seemed to regard this place as a paradise, and it was extremely disgusting that Dionysus could not see it, but heard their cooing and joyful songs.

For the first time he found himself afraid of these things, in addition to the animalistic fear of man, the fear of hunger, the darkness, the cold, but also the fear of everything slippery, snakes, toads, mud, swamps.

The more he thought about it, the more he wanted to escape, but this was not his daily life, this was the inheritance of Saint Romain, and it was a test that he voluntarily accepted, so he had to bear pain and fear, otherwise it would be a failure.

The taste of defeat is very uncomfortable, the side that loses the battle between explorers loses everything, and even more can appreciate this in the period after Li Yi, life, wealth, traces of existence, and the spirit that has been trained for a long time, after defeat, Li Yi will wipe out or deprive him.

Fear fails, there is another fear in the heart, people are really a creature that is particularly easy to fear, even they will be afraid, but if they are fearless, they will die quickly, which can be regarded as a kind of self-protection.

"I'm really incompetent, weak like a girl, no, I have to hold on, I can't let others look down on me!" Dionysus cried out in his heart, but there was no one around but him. Sometimes, the sense of existence brought by the recognition of others is that some people think that they are respected or relied on to exist, because weak people must be dependent on the strong in order to exist, and if they have this feeling in their hearts, they will become dependent and become a person who lives in the eyes of others, and their own life is also based on pleasing others and continues.

But why do we exist to please others? Since we were born, we are a unique life, unique thinking, unique action, I don't know when we started, we pursue gorgeous clothing, in order to be admired by others, we pursue noble temperament, in order to be admired by others, we pursue talent, but also to let others admire, it seems that the self that lives in the eyes of others is the real self.

This is the biggest deception of the heart, after all, I am a memory fragment in the eyes of others, occupying less than one billionth of their memory bank, but I am the whole of my own memory bank, people should live to please themselves, live according to their hearts, and live selfishly.

The interests of the collective are blinded, the desires of the individual are gnawing at the heart like insects, and the human moral norms that have been imperceptibly instilled are even more absurd continuations, and the stones will fall to the ground, and if the stones regard this as morality, then the stones thrown into the sky are evil.

Human beings have been ridiculously and distorted to continue their own morality, often the most ridiculous thing is that they cannot end from the beginning, and the positive and negative sides of a thing have been advertised as morality at different times, after all, they are just what they say and what the public opinion of the foolish people refers to.

Dionysus thought about it, and finally discarded shame, cold, darkness, dampness, mud, those are all part of nature, man is born into this world, he is surrounded by all kinds of nature, the sun caresses his cheeks in the morning, the rain can wet the tips of his hair, the fragrance of flowers in the air, the fine dust, are all part of nature, just like a fish living in water.

He was very strange that he would have such thoughts, the rough stone in his hand, he would feel the hardness of nature, the water would leak through his fingers, it was the softness of nature, the changes were endless, carrying all of human beings, just like the hotbed of plants, if there was no nature, there was no world, even if human beings were born, they would be in the vast void, unable to think, because there was no reference, they could not eat, because there was no food, they could not communicate, because the air could transmit sound, how terrible it was!

A few hours passed, and his heart was no longer disgusted, and he gradually got used to it, and the mud wrapped around him, gradually sinking, and his body was dragged to a colder place.

I had my eyesight restored, and there was no dazzling feeling after regaining the light, because when I opened my eyes, it was a world full of blue light.

"What does Teacher Saint-Roman want to tell me? What is this place? No, I should still be in the valley now, this is a vision, an influence, left by the teacher. Dionysus said to himself, the mud and the small animals on his body, washed away by the flowing water, and the joy of cleanliness came from every inch of his body, and he was suspended in the water, and above it was black silt, and a clump of white narcissus bloomed from the mud, and struggled to penetrate the thick cement to the surface of the lake, in search of sunlight and air.

Underwater, there was an ugly blue toad, only three legs, the size of a room, with bumps all over its body, and what was frightening was that each pimple was a human face, and the toad also had a very human face. (To be continued.) )
