The Song of Gendaya

The carriage went through the bumps for about an hour, and Linde only felt dizzy.

Maybe it’s because I haven’t eaten for a long time, and the bumps make my stomach feel like a river is overwhelmed, and I feel sick more and more.

Gradually, Linde heard the noise and got closer and closer. Many people seemed to gather in the distance, and it was like a lively bazaar.

Linde raised his head and looked at the man sitting across from him, who was the priest of the Sky Temple.

"We are coming soon. The pain will not last long." The priest said to Linde lightly.

Linde gently nodded and shook his head. At this moment, there are countless unspeakable tastes in his heart, and these tastes are being mixed together, the feeling is unspeakable, just like Wan It usually feels a bit suffocating to press the boulder on the body.

"Don't be too scared, the angel of the god of the sky will guide you and send you back to reincarnation. If you are lucky, or will send you to the bliss world where there is no trouble, there is only beauty." The priest continued Comforted him.

"My lord, am I really guilty?" Linde suddenly blinked and asked, "What is my guilt? Can you tell me? If I am really guilty, how can I go to bliss? world?"

"This..." A surprised expression suddenly appeared on the priest's face, and then it turned into an expression of anger.

"You have been skeptical of the trial of the angels of the gods until you die. It is really hopeless. Maybe you can't enter the cycle of reincarnation at all, you will only fall into endless hell." The priest said angrily, but he did not Answer Linde's question head-on, maybe he doesn't know how to answer at all.

Linde lowered his head silently with a sorrowful smile. He didn't speak any more.

And at this moment, the carriage stopped suddenly.

"We are here." said a big guy in the car.

Linde listened attentively. He heard a riot outside the carriage, accompanied by buzzing and babbling.

For people sitting in the carriage, the voices outside the car can’t be heard clearly.

Linde looked up and saw that the priest sitting opposite him and the two big men next to him whispered a few words, and then turned to pass through the curtain of the carriage back to communicate with someone outside in a low voice.

It's just in the mess, Linde didn't hear anything. The two big men sitting on either side of the priest were staring at him coldly, just like hunters staring at prey in the forest.

It didn't take long for the curtains of the rear canopy of the carriage to be pulled away from the outside, and the wooden steps of the rear canopy of the carriage were also lowered.

A ray of light came in, and Linde only felt that the light was particularly dazzling. With his hands tied tightly behind his back, Linde could only blink his eyes incessantly, trying to adapt to the sunlight.

"Well, it's getting late, and if you don't send him on the road, I'm afraid he won't be able to catch up with the ferryman of the bridge of reincarnation." The priest lightly said.

The two big men who were originally staring at Linde responded to the priest at the same time. They got up and lifted Linde on the left and right, and then walked under the carriage.

The priest of the Sky Temple finally got up and followed them.

Leaving the carriage, Linde finally saw the environment in front of him. What he could not imagine was that this was actually the central square of Laurent Town!

In Linde's memory, this place should still be the residence of Karat mercenary group in Laurent Town. But at this moment, you can't even see a military tent here, let alone the blue and white bucks flag that represents the mercenary group fluttering in the wind.

Linde blinked his eyes vigorously. There was no clinking of master blacksmiths, no sound of soldiers patrolling and training, laughing and cursing of camp prostitutes, chattering of old people and women, children’s running and laughing, Everything in the past disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, there are countless familiar townspeople gathered here. They crowded almost all of the square, looking from a distance, crowded.

Only an artificial aisle which is not spacious is left outside the carriage. Dozens of brawny men held long sticks in their hands to maintain order and keep the aisles unobstructed.

At the end of the aisle, Linde saw the stone statue of the girl's fountain that was no longer running.

In front of the stone statue stood the Goddess officer who was judged by the mayor Mr. Bilev that day.

She is now wearing a plain white robe, holding a torch in her right hand and a brown staff in her left hand, standing quietly in place, waiting for Linde's arrival.

On the right side of the Maiden's Fountain is a temporary high platform, under which is filled with firewood and oil.

He did not see Mr. Bilev, the mayor of the town who gave him the final trial that day. Maybe he is standing somewhere, looking at himself coldly.

"Here...this is the central square of the town!" Linde couldn't help but said.

"Yes, it's here, knowingly ask!" a big man behind him responded.

"But what about people! What about everyone?" Linde couldn't help but continue.

"Human? Boy, you know that everyone in town has come! You are blind, can't you see?" the big man on Linde's left said grimly.

"I mean people from the mercenary group, they should be stationed here! What about them?" Linde said nervously.

"You said the trash that eats and waits to die! They all ran away a few days ago. In one night, the 2nd day was disappeared. It seems that it was because of them. I was afraid that we would retaliate against them, and they were all scared away." The big guy standing on the right told Linde.

"They obviously saved you, why do you want to retaliate against them?" Linde asked.

"It's not because they harbored you, and they refused to distribute the food to us!" Dahan replied.

"Hey... they are all gone... Hill is also gone..." Linde murmured.

Thinking that the little boy is not here, Linde feels disappointed again. He remembered that Hill had told him more than once that Captain Karat asked him to take good care of him, just like the Captain himself.

But Hill left first, not even seeing the last side. But think about it, but isn’t it the first to break the rules yourself? He clearly promised that Hill would not leave the military tent without authorization, but he was bewitched by the "bad child" Matthew and left the military camp. Isn't it because of yourself? Really reap what you have sown.

Linde was thinking of this when suddenly someone behind him was pushing him hard.

"Hey! I said, can you hurry up! Or we will drag you away!" the bad-tempered man behind Linde yelled impatiently.

He took Linde out of the carriage by himself and threw it in front of the crowd.

Linde struggled on the ground before sitting up again, but he found that he was facing the yelling and boos of the townspeople at this moment.

"Bring the unfortunate evil boy to the town! Go back to your hell home!"

"Let the flame take away your filthy soul! Wait for the ascension!"

"The murderer! The murderer who killed my child!"

"..."

A variety of unpleasant screams echoed in Linde's ears, his eyes Wet. When he recalled his experience over the years, he was really aggrieved and sad. And he did not do anything himself, he did not understand why disasters always linger around him.

He doesn’t understand why that many people want him to die, it’s really easy to die! You will be free if you die! Death ends all one's troubles! But he felt more and more unwilling.

He stared in a daze at the faces he had been familiar with but had never been friendly to him, and silently listened to their accusations and abuses.

If there weren't those big guys who held up sticks to stop him, maybe these people would really kill him on the spot.

The priest of the Sky Temple also seems to have noticed that the atmosphere in the crowd is not right, and hurriedly urged: "Quick! Take him to the burning platform. Don’t let the townsfolk hurt him. He must pass through the gods. The punishment of the messenger!"

So, the two brawny man hurriedly picked him up and walked towards the end of the man-made aisle until Linde was taken in front of Officer Goddess.

"Linde, you have to understand that your life is about to die here. This is also the will of the Mother Earth, who is the most merciful nurturing of all things. I believe you will find a new beginning within reincarnation. Go back to the light and stay away from the evil monster. Here, you can pray the last prayer to Mother Earth, praying that she forgive you for all the crimes you have committed before."

Official Goddess said to Linde with compassion on his face. , Her bamboo jade hand stroked Linde's face.

But Linde suddenly lifted the head, tears in his eyes, and the tears gradually turned into blood.

"My lord priest! You made me repent of my previous mistakes! But...but...but what's wrong with me! What kind of harm have I done to these people present! Why are their own misfortunes To boil down to me, is it just that my origin is unknown, and many disasters have been caught up by me! If this is God’s punishment to me, I would like to know whether God’s eyes are clearly understood. ! If there is no word, then God is not a God!"

"You...you...what did you say!"

Official Goddess's face suddenly changed, then The look of pity that used to be like the Holy Mother suddenly disappeared.

The priest of the Sky Temple behind Linde also began to tremble. He bowed his head and prayed.

"He...he...he is...he is questioning God's decision...this is heresy! He is heresy! He is not a man...he is indeed a devil! Someone who dares to deny God's will It's the devil! Burn him! Burn him!" Officer Goddess suddenly shouted loudly like crazy.

The townspeople present were quiet for a while, and then launched wave after wave of condemnation like thunder.

"The devil! The child of the devil!"

"Burn him! Only the devil dares to question God!"

"Let let go to hell! Go to hell !"

"..."

Linde's ears can't contain these groundless accusations, he just laughed sadly in his heart. It is easy to die once, but who can be willing to be wronged to death!

He seems to hear a voice calling him softly in the depth of one's soul, he is not the devil, he is not the one who will bring misfortune to others. Since it is not, why should he accept these non-existent accusations.

"Quick! Burn him!" Goddess officer flustered and exasperated shouted, the voice was as sharp as it could pierce the sky.

Linde was dragged onto the burning platform by the brawny man.

They let him lie on it, waiting for the execution of the torture.

Linde lay quietly, but there was a sneer on the corners of his mouth. He seemed to hear the voice calling himself in the depth of one's soul again. The voice was ethereal and distant, familiar but unfamiliar.

"Ignite! Hurry!"

Goddess officer loudly shouted, and the big guys under the high platform began to get busy, splashing oil and lighting the fire.

The crowds onlookers in the audience gave out loud cheers, pushing the atmosphere of burning to a higher tide.

But at this time, something strange happened! The burning torch extinguished as soon as it touched the oil-bearing hay, and there was still no fire star under the high platform after busying for a while.

"My lord priest, it can't be lit! What should I do!" a big man shouted anxiously.

"Let me come!" Officer Goddess said angrily. She raised the staff in her hand and muttered incantion in a low voice.

A fireball was created in front of the staff, about to hit the firewood, but disappeared without a trace for no reason.

"What the hell is..." The Goddess officer also felt incredible.

Suddenly a voice came in midair.

"Don’t bother, the elemental spirits listen to my orders. Is it strange if you can light a fire?"

It was a clear and sweet voice, and Linde thought it was extremely familiar. So he tried to lift up and look out of the high platform.

in midair, a young girl is standing there at the moment, her slender figure, golden yellow hair, fair skin, two long pointed ears, wearing a half-length leather armor, and her feet are knee-length. Boots, the blue cloak of the sky is ringing in the wind.

"Silith!" Linde shouted with all his strength.

"Linde! We are here too!" That was the voice of the little boy, Child Hill.

Linde heard a chaotic sound in his ears, his tears flowed out of the corners of his eyes, but there was a relieved smile on the corners of his mouth.

"God, I was really wrong, I really shouldn't die..."
