Chapter 377 - Wise Words after Alcohol

Liang Hongzhuang stared at Su Li. Expressionlessly, he asked like a dead person, “Why?”
There was silence. No one was able to answer this question.
He made a bitter smile, “I thought that the heavenly laws would cycle in the end, not because of myrevenge, just that the time had not yet come, even if it was slightly late, but there would always be one outcome in the end. Who would have thought there is no heavenly law? Why would it let someone like you always live so well? Seeing that you were about to die today, he appeared out of nowhere.”
Chen Changsheng lowered his head. He did not look at him, and his hand which grasped the dagger trembled slightly.
“Just how has our Liang clan offended you? What exact benefits has the Chen clan of Tianliang given you? A decade ago, you wanted to wipe out my Liang clan!”
Liang Hongzhuang’s laughter became louder and louder, the blood on his body flowed faster and faster and his voice became shriller and shriller. When he said this final sentence, his questioning became a roar, a roar produced by an injured beast. It was full of anger and unwillingness, despair and pain. It pierced into the deepest parts of the souls of those who heard it.
Chen Changsheng’s head lowered even more, his face became even paler, and his hand trembled even more. It was as if he was unable to hold onto the hilt of the dagger in the next moment. He did not wish to see Liang Hongzhuang who seemed to already go crazy, and also did not dare to look at Su Li. This was because he was very worried that if he saw them, he would feel an unrestrainable feeling of guilt for what he had done, and sink into pain and struggle.
Hearing Liang Hongzhuang’s grieving and indignant questioning and seeing Chen Changsheng who had his head lowered, Su Li remained expressionless—things that had already occurred could never be changed. Thus, whether one regretted it or not, it was all pointless, so there was no need to blame oneself. Even if there was regret, it could only happen in his own heart. He definitely would not fall to the level of explaining it to the world.
This was how he was. If it was the past, no matter how miserable Liang Hongzhuang was, he would leave without even a change in his expression. Today, he was also like that, without a change in his expression, but for some reason, he said a few words before leaving. Perhaps it was because Chen Changsheng’s head hung too low, and that the dagger in his hand trembled too much?
“When your ancestors of the Liang clan were emperors, just how many people in the south did they kill, and how many sects did they exterminate?”
Su Li looked at Liang Hongzhuang expressionlessly and said, “As for wiping out your Liang clan… if I really wanted to do that, how would you be alive today, and how would Liang Wangsun still be alive?”
He suddenly felt rather annoyed. He looked at Chen Changsheng and said coldly, “Why are you standing there idiotically and not leaving? Imitating loneliness or are you filled with despair? Don’t think that just because you’ve saved me, you have the right to lecture me.”
After saying that, he walked towards the other side mountain.
After these days of resting, he was still heavily injured, but he could slowly walk slightly.
The two furry deer were full with the green grass and returned back towards them. They looked at Su Li who walked in the distance and Chen Changsheng who remained head-down. They seemed to be rather perplexed, not knowing who to follow.
Chen Changsheng raised his head and looked at Liang Hongzhuang. He wanted to say something, but only said a single word in the end, “Sorry.”
After saying this heavy word, his mood did not become more relaxed because of it. He extended his hand to pull the ropes around the necks of the two furry deer, and silently chased after the lonely person in the distance.
The side of the mountain faced south.
Liang Hongzhuang was no longer able to endure it anymore, and collapsed on his bottom. He looked at the two people who gradually became closer together and yelled painfully, “You think you really can return to the south? If you continue to follow him, you will definitely die!”
Chen Changsheng did not turn around, and continued onwards with his head down silently.
Su Li walked very slowly, so it was not too long before Chen Changsheng caught up.
The furry deer lifted its front limb and placed its knee on the ground. He lifted Su Li onto its back.
From the start to the end, no one said anything.
Walking past the mountain and traversing another two mountains, the furry deer stopped by the side of a grassy hill that was green like moss.
Chen Changsheng got off the back of the deer and sprinted to the edge of the path. He bent over and began vomiting.
Su Li looked at him and sneered, “It’s not like that guy died. What is there to vomit over?”
Chen Changsheng waved his hand and wanted to explain a little. However, he was unable to suppress the uncomfortable feeling in his chest, and began vomiting again.
