Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

The significance of being eighty-eight is self-evident to Mo Dao.

This is the last year of this life.

It's the end of life.

The countdown is like the clockwork on a puppet,

When the countdown reaches the end, there is no way to move forward in this life.

And like clockwork to a puppet,

When the final moment comes, the power of the clockwork has always become much weaker than before.

After celebrating my eighty-eighth birthday.

Mo Dao, who was already aging badly,

The body then deteriorates at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although since the death of Pars and others,

Regarding Mo Dao's body, both Hua Guo and Keerner were becoming more and more concerned.

Especially for Kellner, after losing Parsborne and others, it was really impossible to accept Mo Dao's departure.

Even though everyone knew that Mo Dao was actually quite old.

This year, both Kerner and Hua Guo paid special attention to Modao's physical condition.

In addition to routine physical examinations, starting from a few years ago, Kellner also paid to equip Modao with a team of health doctors at Modao's residence to keep an eye on Modao's physical changes.

This year, the new leader of Kerner took the opportunity to visit China and visited Mo Dao twice in less than half a year.

However, these obviously cannot change anything.

It's probably an injury I suffered when I was young in this life.

At the end of this life, Rang Mo Dao's body was much worse than in the previous life.

Movements become increasingly sluggish and unresponsive.

The body is always in a very tired state, even if it is not doing anything.

Without support, even after getting up, moving from the bedroom to the living room takes a lot of time.

The aging of his body could not even support him. Mo Daozai accompanied Qin Huaishi for a walk along the green path outside the community in the afternoon.

Even if he was just moving slowly or walking, Mo Dao would always fall into a state of exhaustion.

He could only stand there, his legs and feet seemed to be out of control and it was difficult to lift them up.

In addition, Mo Dao's daily sleep time was obviously getting longer.

His exhausted body could hardly support him to think for a long time, and he spent most of the day sleeping.

However, even if it is no longer possible to go out,

It didn't have much impact on Mo Dao and Qin Huaishi.

In my last year here,

Mo Dao and Qin Huaishi still lived peacefully.

Most of the time, the two of them sit on the sofa in the living room or on a bench under the shade of the greenery in the community.

They leaned on each other and talked about simple and trivial things.

Occasionally, because of physical fatigue, I fall asleep unconsciously.

Qin Huaishi also sat beside Mo Dao, quietly waiting for Mo Dao to wake up again.

…

Early summer that year.

The countdown in front of Mo Dao continued to approach the final number.

The health doctor appointed by Kelner Youth had actually checked out some problems with Mo Dao.

But there was nothing we could do.

It is simply the overall aging.

Either he is sick or he is old.

Qin Huaishi also noticed something.

Mo Dao, who had become increasingly lethargic in the past few months, has become less sleepy again these days.

It's rare to be able to stay awake most of the day.

On this day,

After breakfast.

Qin Huaishi and Mo Dao were sitting on the sofa in the living room.

We didn't turn on any TV, we just leaned together quietly, listening to the rustling of the green leaves in the wind outside.

"...Would you like to go to Kelna and have a look again?"

Qin Huaishi looked at Mo Dao and asked.

The changes in Mo Dao's body made her somewhat conscious.

She knew that Kelna was where Mo Dao had spent much of his life.

Mo Dao might feel uneasy.

Mo Dao looked at Qin Huaishi and shook his head.

"Then you want to go back to the head of the stream?"

Qin Huaishi asked again,

This is the hometown of Mo Dao and Qin Huaishi, where she and he attended the middle school when they were young.

For both of them, though, there's nothing there now.

Mo Dao shook his head again.

"Just stay here."

Mo Dao said another word, looked out the window, and then looked at Qin Huaishi.

at the end of life,

There is no need to go anywhere else.

His home is here.

"Um."

After listening to Mo Dao's words, Qin Huaishi just looked at Mo Dao and agreed.

Mo Dao looked at Qin Huaishi, smiled, and said no more.

…

In the next few days,

It was like everything was business as usual, nothing special happened.

Mo Dao's physical changes did not change the lives of Mo Dao and Qin Huaishi.

The two of them spent time quietly as usual.

The two of them would talk about trivial things, and they would still support each other when going out. Even if they couldn't walk very far, they had to rest.

For the two of them, it doesn't matter.

Just like the trivial things the two of them talked about, they don't necessarily mean anything.

But I never get bored listening to it.

but,

These peaceful days will eventually come to an end.

The countdown in front of Mo Dao is getting closer and closer to the end of this life.

…

It's a sunny day.

The sunlight shining through the gaps between the trees casts dappled light on the ground. At the same time, there seems to be some fine dust floating in the light pillars.

On this day, Mo Dao woke up very early.

breakfast, lunch,

Spent a peaceful morning, after lunch.

Mo Dao quietly listened to Qin Huaishi's narration of a daily trivial matter.

Then he said to Qin Huaishi,

"Huai Shi, let's go for a walk."

Qin Huaishi listened to Mo Dao's words, looked back at Mo Dao, and then paused.

But in the end he didn't say anything, he just nodded and said hello.

"Want to get some clothes?"

Although the sun is shining right now, as long as the sun is covered by clouds,

Mo Dao's body still feels cold.

Mo Dao shook his head, then stood up slowly,

Qin Huaishi, who is the same age as Mo Dao, can hardly move fast at this time.

The two of them supported each other and walked out of the house.

Out of the house,

The two of them didn't say much else.

Just like an ordinary afternoon, the two of them took a walk after lunch.

Can talk about some small things in life in the past few days,

After finishing speaking, they stopped, supported each other, and moved forward slowly.

Let the light spots passing through the gaps between the trees slip from the body from time to time.

Enjoy the peace of the moment.

In the end, the two of them didn't actually go very far.

Just under the green shade of the community, Mo Dao had to stop.

The countdown in front of Mo Dao's eyes,

There are only two digits left.

"20"

And Mo Dao's aging body seemed to have run out of strength at this moment.

His chest was rising and falling violently, as if he was unconsciously trying to regain some strength in his body.

But it obviously didn't work.

"Huai Shi, I can't walk anymore."

Pictures from many lives seem to overlap again at this moment.

Mo Dao's chest continued to rise and fall, and he looked down at his feet that he couldn't lift.

He raised his head again, smiled at Qin Huaishi, and then the smile receded again, and he just said this.

"Well. Let's take a rest here."

The two sat down on the bench in the community.

Qin Huaishi leaned against Mo Dao.

Mo Dao's breathing gradually became heavier, as if his normal breathing could no longer move his shaky body.

Mo Dao raised his head and looked at the shade of the trees above his head and the sunlight shining through the shade.

Only for a while.

The countdown has already reached ‘15’.

Mo Dao turned around and looked at his girl Qin Huaishi again.

Qin Huaishi didn't speak, but looked at Mo Dao, reached out and held Mo Dao's hand, and stayed with him quietly.
