Chapter 155: The Nameless in the Pure Land.
Manji is searching for Uchiha Hikaru in the Pure Land.
They found Uchiha Hikaru.
It is located at the very end of the Pure Land, at the boundary.
"Quite capable, managing to open up so much all by himself..."
Ten thousand times he nodded slightly, and in an instant he was there.
The first thing you see is a thin, frail body. The girl is wearing a faded Uchiha uniform that looks dirty.
She was none other than Wuming, and at this moment she was tightly gripping the pickaxe that she had given her thousands of times.
She was standing on tiptoe, using all her strength, striking again and again, desperately trying to break through the invisible yet real barrier of pure air in front of her.
Gradually, the boundaries of this pristine land are being expanded.
Wanci stood silently in the void not far away, not uttering a sound to disturb her, but simply gazing at her.
He watched as the girl's movements with the pickaxe gradually slowed down, indicating that she was tired, so he stopped forcing her and sat down on the spot.
Looking up at the eternally clear sky of that pure land.
After resting for a while and regaining some strength, she immediately picked up the pickaxe again and threw herself back into the work of digging, repeating the cycle over and over.
What surprised Wanji was...
The girl looked much better than he remembered her when she was alive.
When she was alive, her eyes were filled with numbness, forbearance, and an inescapable gloom; her face was pale and haggard, like a flower ravaged by a storm and on the verge of death.
But at this moment, her eyes were clear and bright. Although her figure was still thin, she exuded an unprecedented vitality, without the lifelessness of the past.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The heavy sound of pickaxes was particularly clear at the edge of the silent, pristine land.
Just then, a slight ripple appeared in the space around Wanci, and his figure appeared out of thin air behind Wuming without any warning, as if he had always been standing there.
"You seem to be enjoying yourself here."
A calm and peaceful voice slowly rang out, lacking the usual imposing manner and carrying a hint of gentleness.
Wanci is that kind of person; when dealing with good people, he naturally has the demeanor of an immortal.
The nameless woman's swing of the pickaxe suddenly stopped, and her hands gripping the handle tightened slightly, causing her to freeze in place.
After a brief moment of stunned silence
She turned around abruptly, her hair fluttering slightly with the movement, and looked up to see the figure in mid-air.
Wanci held the Six Paths Staff, its shaft emitting a soft, ethereal light. He sat cross-legged, floating silently in mid-air, his robes fluttering without wind, and the Seeking the Way Jewel hovering behind him.
"The Sage of Six Paths!"
Wuming gasped in surprise, a hint of flattery and panic flashing in his eyes, and quickly released the pickaxe from his hand.
The pickaxe fell to the ground with a loud thud.
Without a second thought, she immediately straightened up and knelt respectfully on the ground to pay her respects, her movements devout and restrained, as if afraid of being the slightest bit impolite.
Wan Ci waved his hand slightly and said in a calm tone, "No need for formalities."
Wanci lowered his gaze to the petite girl at his feet, softened his tone, and continued, "How was it? How were your five years in this idyllic place?"
Upon hearing this, Wuming slowly straightened up, looked up at Wanci, and a pure and sincere smile gradually bloomed on his originally tense face.
"Great, this place is great, thank you, Great Immortal!"
Wuming said with a sweet smile.
As soon as she finished speaking, she bowed deeply to Wan Ci again. This bow was filled with gratitude and was far more solemn than the previous bow. It was a thank you from the bottom of her soul.
Wan looked at her, his gaze slightly darkening.
With a hint of doubt in his voice, he slowly asked, "You don't resent me for killing you?"
Upon hearing this, Wuming firmly shook his head!
Looking at Wan Ci with eyes full of gratitude, her voice slightly choked, she said, "I don't resent you, I'm grateful to you! Thank you for ending my sinful and miserable life."
She gripped the hem of her dress tightly, her eyes filled with no hatred, only a sense of relief.
"When I was alive, I had no parents, no companions, and I was never a real person. I was just a tool for the Uchiha clan to be manipulated."
"They forced me to kill, controlled and imprisoned me with spells and incantations. I lived in pain and fear every day, and I couldn't even have my own will."
As she said this, she raised her hand and gently touched her chest, a relaxed smile appearing on her face: "But after coming to the Pure Land, all the Uchiha talismans that bound me disappeared. They can no longer control me or hurt me. I am free!"
"In the Pure Land, there is no fighting, no manipulation, no killing, and no fear. I am carefree and have never had a moment of peace or tranquility in my life."
"......"
Wan listened quietly to her words, his expression remaining calm, but a slight sigh escaped his heart.
Yoshihisa
Wanci asked again, "But you are still too young, in the prime of your life. There are so many wonderful things in this world that you have never seen or experienced. Aren't you going to regret leaving this Pure Land like this?"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Wuming's face gradually faded. She lowered her head slightly, her long eyelashes drooping down, concealing the emotions in her eyes, and fell into silence.
Her small body stood on the edge of the pure land, looking particularly lonely.
Perhaps in moments unknown to anyone
She also longed for the life she had never had, but that longing had long been buried deep in her heart by the suffering of the past.
Wanci looked down at her dirty clothes and at her small hands, which were covered in calluses but still tightly clenched.
My thoughts suddenly drifted away, recalling memories from a past life.
Children living in war-torn, impoverished, and backward regions.
Girls of the same age
Born in a peaceful and prosperous era, in a bustling city
They can grow up freely under the care of their parents.
In reality, you travel to different places to see the beautiful scenery, have a sweet and innocent romance, and visit your favorite restaurants and attractions.
But those girls born into war and suffering are not in control of their own lives from birth.
They were trapped in their small village their whole lives, unable to see the outside world, and their marriages were arranged arbitrarily by their parents.
Being able to eat a full meal is a luxury; even worse, some have to endure unimaginable hardships, being ruthlessly tormented by fate, and even basic survival becomes a problem.
Same age, same innocent girl.
Their fates, however, were worlds apart, such a stark contrast.
long silence
Wanci looked at Wuming, who remained silent with his head down, and spoke in the same tone.
"You're so young. Staying in the Pure Land will only cause you to miss out on many things. Would you like to leave the Pure Land with me and start a new life?"
Wanci asked softly.
Wuming was taken aback, then slowly lowered his head.
"Immortal, thank you, but I still prefer to stay in the Pure Land. It's been five years, and I've gotten used to it..."
"Nameless said in a low voice."
Wanci noticed Wuming's hesitation.
It makes sense, really. An anonymous person has never experienced the life of a normal girl.
However, Manji only asked her to accompany Kaguya.
With Kaguya's guidance, she can also become a normal girl, watching dramas and learning about fashion with Kaguya, and guzzling iced tea.
