    Chapter 50

    “Yi is not here now, and I don’t know where he is.” Who knows Liujin said in embarrassment, but soon she nodded to herself and smiled warmly, “But I can help you ask, it just takes some time. If Yi agrees, I will come to you.”

    “Thank you.” Ji Gui was not disappointed, “Then I’ll leave it to you.”

    “It doesn’t matter, we are friends.” Liu Jin winked at Ji Gui, very cute.

    ——

    Although he didn’t see Him, Ji Gui was not in a hurry.He spent most of the rest of the day sitting high up in the city waiting for the breeze of time to pass by him.

    Later, he found that as time passed, people changed from the initial panic to calmness and even raised sharp questions.

    They said that the so-called natural disaster was nothing more than alarmist talk and a way for the government to control the people. Various conspiracy theories emerged one after another.But no one organized it. Most people just talked about it online and were soon arrested for “spreading rumors.”

    During this period, Ji Gui did nothing and continued to wait.

    A year later, Yueyue found a job as a cashier through her own efforts. Although it was far from the painting she expected, at least her life was stable.And she also found Lin Le, and the reunion of the siblings was a happy ending.

    Ivy was sent to the orphanage. At first, she could not adapt to the hard life in the orphanage and often cried.But as time passed, she found playmates and accepted this reality.

    Everything seems to be on track.

    But only Ji Gui knows that the shadow of natural disasters still hangs over people.

    To be honest, the speed of natural disasters is indeed slower than in the previous life, but it is only a few days behind, which cannot be called a big improvement at all.

    Ji Gui had no choice but to close his eyes again and enter reincarnation.

    ——

    When he opened his eyes again and returned to the cramped and dark room, the initially clueless Ji Gui was in a daze, feeling that his body was passing away little by little.

    But this time, Ji Gui looked at the door and saw two figures.There is a man and a woman. The woman walks briskly and smiles, lively and lively.Liu Jin walked towards Ji Gui, held Ji Gui’s hand and said, “Have we met again?”

    In an instant, Ji Gui regained his memory and turned to look at Shang at the door.Shang Zheng was leaning on the door frame, watching everything happening in the room quietly.

    Ji’s father and the old dog stayed in place, their overloaded brains processing the information, trying to understand but unable to start.

    But Ji Gui had no time to explain to them. He was even more indifferent than the last time he returned. He didn’t even look at his parents. He said to Shang: “Help me take care of them.”

    Then, he looked at Liu Jin and walked out the door.The figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

    “That guy.” Shang clicked his tongue, then turned to smile at Ji’s father.But when he saw the old dog with a shabby face, his expression became imperceptibly gloomy.

    Although he didn’t say anything at this moment, the old dog’s fate was already foreseeable.

    ——

    Today’s weather is surprisingly good, with a gentle gentle breeze and a pure, bright blue sky without any haze.This was the first time Ji Gui noticed that on this day, the sky was blue, the wind was blowing, and everything was beautiful.

    Liu Jin walked in front, his skirt swaying and he said: “Yising has come to see you, but there is another god present.”

    “Who is it?” Ji Gui asked.

    “The one in the distant galaxy who claims to be the God of Light, you saw him last time.” Liu Jin looked back at Ji Gui, his eyebrows curved.

    Before Ji Gui stopped, Aishino’s face emerged from the sea of ​​memory, pure white and sacred, always with an elegant posture.But he was talking about destroying Galaxy X.

    But at this moment, Ji Gui couldn’t bring up any emotions towards Him, just like facing a gust of wind, the wind passed by without a trace and without any ripples.

    “Yeah.”

    Liu Jin led Ji Gui towards a dark wall in front. They stepped in, ripples trembled all over their bodies, the tide spread, the sound of clear water sounded, and the junction of water and sky seemed to appear in front of them like a mirror.

    At the end of the intersection between sky and water, half a golden sun peeks out of the water, reflecting the water with sparkling light.

    Under the sun, two people were sitting quietly at the round white table.

    Yi and Aishino.

    Yi is wearing common casual clothes, with a smile in his amber eyes, and a small earring on his left ear. He looks easy-going.The last time Ji Gui saw him, from a distance he just thought he was an ordinary person.Ji Gui had never felt his pressure.

    And Aishino had her hands folded on her thighs, wearing a long pure white veil, touching the water with her bare feet.Dignified, holy and elegant, as always.

    “Long time no see, Your Highness Ji Gui.” Yi turned to Ji Gui and smiled.

    Ji Gui was slightly stunned. He was not used to being called “Your Highness” by others.But this title helped him retrieve a previous memory – Themeqiya.Themecia also called him “Your Highness.”

    Aishino also looked towards Ji Gui, but he didn’t say a word. After a faint look, he looked away and continued to sit upright.

    Ji Gui stepped forward and bowed to the game: “Your Highness Yuan.”

    “Please sit down.” Yi smiled.

    So three gods who couldn’t be reached gathered together, two of whom were enemies not long ago.

    Ji Gui couldn’t explain what he felt. He subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction of Liu Jin, only to find that Liu Jin had disappeared at some point.

    “I understand the purpose of both of you. Your Highness Aishino wants to eliminate natural disasters in this world, and Your Highness Ji Gui does not want to let natural disasters rage.” Yi raised his hand, and a pot of tea and three cups of hot tea appeared on the table, steam rising.

    “I won’t interfere, but I can help you two.” Yi just smiled and said no more.

    Aixinuo has picked up the tea cup with an elegant posture and took a sip: “Your Highness Ji Gui, your attitude is really difficult to communicate.”

    Ji Gui had no emotion: “I think you are too. My cherished friends naturally don’t want to see you kill them.”

    “Really?” Aishino smiled, but he did not question Ji Gui, but said, “If you are so stubborn, we have nothing to talk about.”

    Ji Gui fell silent because he thought asking for help was a good way. He only wanted his own planet to survive. As for other planets in the X galaxy, he had no feelings for them.As long as he takes a step back, he might be able to achieve his goal.

    “Actually, I agree with your idea. I will not interfere with whatever you do to those planets.” Ji Gui said.

    Ashino paused and put down the teacup: “What do you mean?”

    “What I mean is that as long as you don’t move to Planet X-01, I will not interfere with any of your actions.” Ji Gui smiled.

    Yi sat aside and did not interfere in their conversation from beginning to end.

    The smile on Aishino’s lips completely disappeared, replaced by a cold look that was almost compassionate.

    “You are worthy of being called a natural disaster.” Aishino’s voice was very soft, and the sharpness of insight into everything came out instantly, “In your eyes, what you can’t see means it doesn’t exist, and what you don’t recognize is no different than dust.”

    “You’re not here to seek peace or negotiation, you’re here to protect what’s yours: these people I know and care about and this little piece of land, you can’t touch. As for the rest? Please leave.”

    He shook his head and sighed.

    Ji Gui was silent, he couldn’t refute, and even admitted that this was him.This is the truest version of him, as a human being he cannot escape his selfish nature.As a god, he is beyond everything except the indifference of destruction.

    “Do you think this is a concession or a deal? No, Your Highness. This is just a manifestation of your deep-rooted selfishness stemming from human emotions.”

    Ji Gui smiled nonchalantly and said: “You are right, but this is enough to weaken the power of natural disasters. You can condemn me, but can you refuse me? You are also indifferent. You can sacrifice the lives of a galaxy at will, isn’t it the same as me? You are deflecting the problem and using other lives to save the other half of life. If so, why do you blame me?”

    Aishino was unwavering: “Yes, I am also making choices and weighing sacrifices. But I don’t like your attitude of indifference to everything. At least I don’t want to be that kind of god. I have to make a choice. If I see it, I can’t turn a blind eye.”

    “Oh, really.” Ji Gui felt that Aishino’s logic was not much different from his. The difference may be that Aishino wanted to protect the entire universe, while he only wanted to protect a few people. “Maybe we shouldn’t discuss this issue. You just need to tell me whether you will agree.”

    Aishino picked up the tea cup again and drank it in one gulp. The gauze swayed with his movements. His eyelashes lowered and finally outlined a smile: “I accept it, although this is not the optimal solution. But I am happy that you can back down.”

    He had no reason to refuse. Although He accused Ji Gui, it was just His instinctive hostility towards natural disasters, and He also had a premonition of the future that was about to come.

    “Then this is the last time…it’s finally over.” Ji Gui sighed softly, feeling that the burden on his soul suddenly lightened, and he was extremely relaxed at the intersection of water and sky.

    However, Aishino shook his head imperceptibly, and the sigh that seemed to be absent in his eyes spread gently like water droplets and slowly rippled. He said: “If you can still cherish your friends at the last moment, maybe all this will be worth it.”

    Faced with these words, Ji Gui was unusually silent.He didn’t know and didn’t dare to think about it.

    “It seems you have reached an agreement.” Yi, who was sitting aside, stood up and turned to look at the huge sun not far away.

    “Yes, thank you, His Highness Yuan.” Aishino stood up and bowed to the game.

    The same is true for Ji Gui.

    “It doesn’t matter, this is your decision.” Yi smiled slightly, “I’m leaving, goodbye.”

    After saying that, His voice disappeared, only the ripples under his feet were still rippling.

    The next second, the sound of light footsteps came from behind them, accompanied by large ripples.

    I saw Shang walking at a leisurely pace, his black windbreaker swaying in the wind, walking on the flawless mirror.

    “Long time no see, Your Highness Aishino.” He said.

    Aishino nodded at him and resumed his elegant and dignified smile.He folded his hands and stepped forward: “Do you accept it too?”

    Shang naturally accepts that he and Ji Gui are the same person, and whatever Ji Gui accepts, thinks, and hates is his.He nodded naturally: “As you wish.”

    Soon, only Shang and Ji Gui were left in the land of water and sky.

    They sat together, facing the sparkling water and the shining sun.

    Such silence, such beautiful scenery, the moment when the two of them are alone sitting together, it feels like they have returned to the first time they met.

    “I haven’t killed Yuan Hui yet.” Ji Gui stared at the water and suddenly said something irrelevant.

    Upon hearing this, Shang laughed out loud, raised his forehead and said, “Don’t worry, I have killed him for you. I know you are the most vindictive.”

    “Do you know why Themeqiya gave me power?” Shang asked.

    Ji Gui knew that Shang wanted to tell him, so he said honestly: “I don’t know, tell me quickly.”

    “His authority is destiny, and He foresees the main branches. The first one: Mixin returns to inform Aishino about the natural disaster, and Aishino destroys the X galaxy; the second one: He prevents Mixin from returning, and we continue to reincarnate and grow to destroy the entire universe.”

    “Themecia couldn’t accept these two endings, so she gave me the authority to temporarily protect the X-01 planet.”

    Ji Gui frowned: “Then why did he let Mixin go back to deliver the news?”

    “Of course he doesn’t want me to destroy the universe. Without God to punish us, we will only become stronger. He is very conflicted. He cannot nip natural disasters in the cradle and hopes to find helpers. But he does not want help to destroy his own planet.”

    “So He chose the third way.” Shang said.”To put it simply, Themeqiya has two purposes: first, to keep her own planet X-01 alive as long as possible; second, to prevent natural disasters from destroying the entire universe too quickly.”

    “So He did two things: First, he gave me the power of destiny to make me stronger, strong enough to have the capital to negotiate with Aishino, instead of being casually destroyed.”

    “Second, let Mixin bring the news to Aishino and lure Aishino over to suppress me and prevent me from growing without scruples and destroying everything in advance.”

    “He has accurately calculated the follow-up development: Aishino is coming and wants to destroy the entire X galaxy; I have become stronger, but I don’t want to fight head-on. In order to protect X-01 where you are, my most rational choice is to negotiate with Aishino – using ‘giving up other planets in the X galaxy’ as a bargaining chip in exchange for the survival of X-01.”

    “The result is: the natural disaster was weakened, I gave up most of the nutrients, X-01 was saved, and the destruction of the universe was delayed.”

    After Ji Gui heard this, he was silent for a long time: “Then why don’t you kill Mixin in advance? Isn’t this the best for you?”

    “I don’t want to answer.” Shang refused decisively, “But you should know that we are the same person.”

    Ji Gui didn’t know and couldn’t guess.But it’s a foregone conclusion, so there’s no need to dwell on the reasons.

    ——

    Afterwards, only planet X-01 remained in the entire X galaxy.

    The only thing left is to live in fear forever.Senior executives constantly speculate, infer and overturn, fearing that they will be next.

    If such a big thing happened, it would be impossible to hide it from ordinary people.Now everyone is in panic, feeling that disaster is about to happen in the next second.

    In this atmosphere of uneasiness and fear, social turmoil occurred.

    But Ji Gui sensed that the birth of natural disasters had slowed down.

    He was conflicted and exhausted.He also doesn’t want to care about the political affairs of Planet X-01, because time will smooth everything for it.

    Ji Gui went to meet acquaintances from the past and helped them escape from the sea of ​​suffering and move towards a new life.But that’s it.

    He also returned to the arms of his parents and experienced a complete childhood.

    This time, the natural disaster officially arrived ten years later.

    ——

    Ji Gui continues reincarnation until the last time.

    But every time it reincarnates in the X galaxy, only the X-01 planet is left, because Aishino has cleared away the planets in all time and space except it.Every time they wake up, Planet X-01 will fall into panic. They always think that they are the only ones left in the lonely universe.

    This time, Ji Gui participated in political affairs, although with little effect.

    Once again, Ji Gui went to see a lot of scenery with his family by his side.

    Once again, Ji Gui became friends with those he had known before, such as Ivy, Yao, Yueyue, Yeluo, etc.

    He always has countless time and countless reincarnations.

    But gradually, he felt that his humanity was passing away, and he would become Him, looking at his past relatives and friends with indifferent eyes.But even if he sensed this, there was nothing he could do.

    And each time, the time for the birth of the natural disaster will be shortened, until the moment Ji Gui opens his eyes and becomes a natural disaster.

    And in countless reincarnations, the only one who can always be by his side is Shang, and only himself.

    Once again, Ji Gui opened his eyes again.

    A woman’s dull coughing could be heard in the cramped space, with clothes hanging on the bed, table, bench, and ropes tied to the ceiling.

    The walls were covered with yellowed newspapers, and the floor was plain cement.

    Ji Gui sat in the corner, his fingers intentionally or unintentionally clasping the newspaper posted on the wall.At this moment, he had no memory, but felt very tired and empty in his heart.

    Menmenshang walked towards him again, handed over half of his soul to him, and said, “This is the last time.”

    Ji Gui raised his head, held Shang’s hand and stood up. He turned to look at his parents and finally left without saying anything.

    “I will soon become a natural disaster, and we will soon become one.” Ji Gui said to Shang.

    “How fast?”

    “Now.”

    Ji Gui and Shang sat on the bank of the river where the breeze was blowing, the willow leaves were floating, and the waves were sparkling. The grass on the bank of the river was a bit prickly, but they still sat on the ground.

    “Suddenly I felt very boring.” Ji Gui stared at the river and said, “If they continue to do this, they will eventually end up in nothingness.”

    Shang said nothing and looked at the river.

    “You are still here.” Suddenly, Liu Jin poked his head out from behind and smiled at them.

    Ji Gui and Shang both looked at her with smiles and said, “We didn’t expect to see you again.”

    Liu Jin smiled “hehe” and sat down next to them. He couldn’t help but pull the grass on the ground with one hand: “I’m here to say goodbye. I will soon go to the next universe with Yi. It’s a pleasure to meet you, and I also like your stories.”

    “Yes, that’s it.” Liu Jin couldn’t help but nod to himself and smiled brightly at them again, “Goodbye then.”

    After that, she disappeared from the spot.

    After the breeze, only silence remains.

    The wind blows, the willow leaves no longer flutter, the river loses its sound, the waves freeze, and the world falls into silence repeatedly.

    Ji Gui and Shang knew the time had come.

    There is no tension, no resistance, no tragedy, just a kind of calm after the dust has settled.

    They sat side by side, looking at the false tranquility in front of them.

    In Ji Gui’s mind, those images of reincarnation flashed quickly like faded photos.

    Mother’s gloomy eyes, Ivy’s proud smile, the red marks on Yueyue’s body, Jiang Nailing’s gentleness, Liujin’s innocence…

    Countless faces, countless voices, countless things he struggled with, suffered, cherished and finally lost.

    They were once so vivid, but now they seem distant, blurry and silent, as if separated by thick glass.

    He couldn’t even feel sad for them anymore.

    He turned his head and looked at Shang beside him.There was only silence in that blurry face that belonged to another part of himself.

    “Suddenly I felt very boring.” Ji Gui repeated the sentence again, “Anything they do will eventually end up in nothingness. So will we…”

    “This is the silence we crave.”

    The wind cannot blow the willow leaves, and the river cannot carry away the time.

    The world is silent and returns to nothingness.

    [End]
