Douluo: Being kidnapped into the Holy Spirit Church at the beginning

Chapter 159 Among thousands of lights, one belongs to me!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The crisp sound rang out rhythmically, and the hunched figure slowly walked towards Jiang Jue.

As Old Lake moved forward, Jiang Jue discovered that everything around him was changing rapidly, time was passing, and time was going backwards.

In an instant, Jiang Jue looked at the small earthen house in front of him, the muddy road, and the wheat fields in the distance. All of these were the scenes of his life in Walan Village six years ago.

It seems like I have returned to the past, the starting point of the story...

"Xiao Jue, hurry up and go eat with grandpa, the sun is setting..."

In a flash, Old Lake had walked in front of Jiang Jue and spoke kindly, his wrinkled face full of kindness.

"me!"

Jiang Jue stretched out his hands, looked at his small palms, then turned his head to look at the earthen house beside him with smoke rising from it. He seemed to have returned to six years ago.

"Grandpa Lake..."

Looking at the person in front of him, Jiang Jue's eyes were complicated and he felt a little indescribable excitement in his heart.

Since he left that year, he has never returned to Valan Village.

But secretly, he sent Zhou Ping to check on him every month to provide supplies and protection for Old Lake, and even awakened the martial spirits for all the children over the age of six in Valan Village every year.

Even after Zhou Ping was transferred away, he reassigned another person to silently protect the old man who raised him.

When he had just become the Holy Son, everything was not stable and everything was arranged by his master. He could not and even dared not to bring Old Lake over.

Rather than getting involved in this vortex, Jiang Jue would rather let Old Lake live peacefully in the Valan Village where he had fulfilled his duties all his life.

Before going to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Jiang Jue had been out of the Holy Spirit Church headquarters only a few times.

He has been practicing quietly underground.

However, Jiang Jue still felt guilty towards Old Lake. The grace of raising him was greater than heaven. If it weren't for Old Lake, Jiang Jue would have died in the wild.

The more guilty I feel, the more I dare not face it.

Although he does not want to and will not become a sanctimonious gentleman, he also has his own principles.

He will never forget those who are good to him and will definitely repay them. He will also "reward" those who are bad to him.

"Ah! Baby, why are you crying? Did that stupid boy from Erniu bully you?"

"Come on, Grandpa will take you to find him now!"

Faintly, tears glistened in Jiang Jue's eyes. Jiang Jue could never forget, and dared not forget, the old man who raised him.

Seeing Jiang Jue like this, Old Lake's face became anxious and he spoke quickly, knocking the ground with the cane in his hand.

"No grandpa, I was just blinded by the sand."

Jiang Jue raised the corner of his mouth, looked at the old man in front of him, suppressed the complexity in his heart, and said with a smile.

"It's okay, it's okay. If someone bullies you outside, just tell grandpa and he will take care of it for you."

Hearing Jiang Jue's words, Old Lake was obviously relieved, the wrinkles on his face relaxed, and he patted his chest and said.

"Let's go. The meal is ready. I stewed your favorite free-range chicken tonight..."

Old Lake said with a smile, turned around, leaned on his crutches, and walked towards his and Jiang Jue's small home, scolding as he walked.

“Even though I know this is an illusion, it still feels so real.”

Looking at everything around him, Jiang Jue felt a pang in his heart and thought secretly.

Sometimes, even though you know that all this is fake, you still choose to indulge in it. In fact, there is no other reason, because this is the most beautiful memory and peaceful farmland in your heart.

"Grandpa, I won't go back this time..."

"Wait until next time, wait until next time! I'll come back to eat your stewed free-range chicken again."

Jiang Jue looked at Old Lake's somewhat hunched back and spoke, with a hint of relief in his tone.

He has already decided that after this time, he will go visit the old man who raised him and show his filial piety to him.

"Where are you going, baby?"

Old Lake paused in his tracks, turned around slowly, and looked at Jiang Jue with some confusion. His cloudy eyes were full of confusion. "Grandpa, wait until I come back. I believe that by then, I will be able to control everything."

Jiang Jue looked at Old Lake deeply and suddenly laughed heartily.

At this time, the sun is setting in the western sky, and the sky is filled with clouds. Everything is peaceful and everything will be fine.

Everything seemed just like the day when Old Lake sent Jiang Jue away, but that time, no one expected that they would be separated for six long years.

"Kid, if you're tired outside, come back and rest. Grandpa is waiting for you at home..."

Suddenly, Old Lake seemed to sense something, and looked at Jiang Jue kindly, and spoke amiably under the rosy sky.

"I will, I will!"

Jiang Jue said with a smile, his tone full of affirmation.

Now, he has been able to face the guilt in his heart, and he is gradually able to decide what he wants to do.

This is true now, and will be even more so in the future.

"I never thought that among all the lights in the world, there would be one that belonged to me..."

Jiang Jue watched all this silently. Old Lake slowly walked towards Jiang Jue, but just as he was about to get close to Jiang Jue, the surrounding scenery began to rapidly recede.

The mud houses, the smoke from cooking, and the sunset glow all disappeared, and Old Lake's figure also went with the wind.

Jiang Jue returned to that dark space again, but now Jiang Jue's mood was a little calmer, just like the still water surface.

Because he was able to face and resolve the guilt that had been buried for so long.

"Could it be that the opportunity that Du Bu Si mentioned is to perfect the state of mind, the Palace of Enlightenment... Enlightenment of the Heart."

A gleam of light flashed in Jiang Jue's eyes, and he seemed to understand something.

Time passed by bit by bit, and this dark space seemed to be unaffected by time and space, and nothing changed.

Jiang Jue also calmed down and pondered quietly.

"Buzz!"

After an unknown amount of time, the space roared again.

Jiang Jue slowly opened his eyes and whispered.

"What will it be this time?"

The next moment, the sky spun and the darkness shattered.

"Hey! Corporal Jiang Jue, what are you thinking about?"

A gentle voice sounded, Jiang Jue felt his arms warm, the fragrance of a young girl drifted by, and a beautiful figure was nestled in his arms.

"Dream……"

Looking at the girl in his arms, Jiang Jue called out softly.

"General Meng Hongchen is here!"

Meng Hongchen in his arms let out a "hey" and responded in a mischievous way.

Jiang Jue knew that Meng Hongchen would only show this unknown side of him when he and Meng Hongchen were together.

In front of Jiang Jue's eyes was a quiet lake with a bright moon reflected on the surface. People were coming and going around them, making it very lively.

Many people were holding lanterns in their hands and laughing.

"Is this the Lantern Festival? But shouldn't Meng call me like this at this time?"

Jiang Jue frowned slightly and thought to himself.

When Meng Hongchen called him "Corporal Jiang Jue", it was only after he told Meng Hongchen that story. Now should be the time when he and Meng Hongchen just started to fall in love.

"Could it be that in my state of mind, these are all constructed by my subconscious mind, so they know it?"
