Chapter 244: A dilemma
I strode to the stern: "Give me all the crossbow arrows to the stern, open the bow with the full string, aim at the top of the mountain, and ...... quickly"
If there is one person on this ship who can live, then only Si Ruo is left.
Si Ruo's light skills are not under Ye Xun, as long as she is given enough places to stay, it will definitely not be a problem for her to fly 100 meters. The crossbow I let the corpse soldiers push up was the stepping foot for Si Ruo.
The ship was full of large crossbows that could easily shoot through the earthen walls, and with proper handling, Si Ruo should be able to fall to safety.
Si Ruogang wanted to speak, but I took the first step to speak: "You take my tiger head into the city, there are still two boats there, let them find a way to come and pick me up." Whether I can live or not is up to you. ”
Si Ruo was stunned for a moment before reluctantly nodding.
"Crossbow bolts ready!" I raised my hand and roared, and a low roar came from behind me: "She can't go!"
"Dad?" I turned around in shock, and my dad had already stepped out of the boat. Shouldn't he have disembarked already?
My dad took a few steps forward and said, "You can only live if she's here, and if she's gone, the whole ship will die with her." ”
My dad raised his hand and pointed to the sea of fire under the boat: "This sea of fire is not unsolvable, as long as someone is thrown down to worship the gods, the sea of fire will naturally subside, and she is the only sacrifice." ”
"No!" I subconsciously shouted two words, but the palm that was raised in the air couldn't fall.
My dad said in a deep voice: "I know you are reluctant to let her die, otherwise, you would not rush down to save people." But I don't want you to die. Decide for yourself!"
I turned my head to look at Si Ruojian, but she lowered her head slightly.
Si Ruo knew that for her, even if it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I would not back down, and there was no need to verify anything, but there was still a person on the ship, a person who was very important to me.
My dad could have jumped off the ship while I was urging the warship, but he followed, and he didn't worry that I would go into the fire alone.
Neither of them would speak, and both of them were waiting for my choice.
But the more they were silent, the more I was in a dilemma.
What's the difference between this and someone asking you, "Who will you save if your mother and your wife fall into the water together"?
This is an inherently unsolvable puzzle. The person who came up with this question is either a madman or a pervert.
Perhaps, someone will be clever and say: I will save someone, and then die with the other.
Even so, it was a betrayal of feelings. Moreover, since he has made a choice, it is impossible to die with anyone, because from the moment he chooses, it means that he will continue to be bound by the feelings he chooses after he goes ashore, except for standing on the shore and crying, he will never jump into the water again and die together.
But I'm being forced into this situation now, and I don't even have a chance to be smart.
I looked at my dad with red eyes, but he slowly closed his eyes and sat on the boat, no matter how much I shouted at him, he wouldn't look at me.
When I turned my head to look at Si Ruo, she still lowered her head: "Wang Huan, I'...... I respect your choice......"
"I ......" I slammed away Si Ruo's palm and slowly leaned over to my dad: "Si Ruo......"
I wanted to say something to Si Ruo, but I couldn't say anything when the words came to my lips.
Si Ruo stood alone in the middle of the deck, like an abandoned child, lonely and helpless, but he didn't know who to call for help.
I stepped back to my dad, and suddenly I pulled out my long knife and slashed at him with my backhand. The other party was defenseless and was cut in two by me with a knife.
Si Ruo was stunned for a moment: "Wang ...... Wang Huan ......"
I held the long knife in my hand and roared angrily: "Si Ming, you get out of here!
Si Ruo shouted in horror: "Wang Huan, what are you talking about?"
I didn't even shout twice and didn't see anyone nearby reflect, so I suddenly raised my knife and pointed at Si Ruo: "Si Ming, if you don't come out again, don't blame me for being polite." ”
Si Ruolian took two steps back: "Wang Huan, what are you talking about......? Already crazy?"
I walked over to Si Ruo step by step with a long knife: "Si Ming, what other tricks do you want to play?"
"I'm Si Ruo!"
Before Si Ruo finished speaking, I suddenly raised my knife and slashed down on top of her head. When the cold blade was about to touch the top of Si Ruo's head, a sneer suddenly sounded in my ears, and everything around me seemed to be shattered by that sneer, and the desert island, the sea of fire, the warship, and the corpse soldiers all exploded into pieces in an instant, and collapsed with a bang.
It was dark in front of my eyes, but I heard Si Ming shouting: "Don't pretend to be dead, weren't you crazy just now?"
When I slowly opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the ceiling of the hotel.
I was still lying in the hotel where I met Si Ming for the first time, and Si Ruo was like a child who had done something wrong, sitting on the bed next to me and stirring his fingers, and his eyes did not dare to look at me at all.
Ruan Dalong, Guo Yang, Xue Yulu, Tao Xiaoyou, Xiang Lin...... Except for Seo-woo, all the people I saw on Dan Island were sitting in the house.
When I sat up from the bed, the faceless woman with no facial features on her face quickly pulled out a few silver needles from me, turned to Si Ming, and said, "My lord, my task has been completed. ”
Si Ming waved his hand lightly and said, "You go down, I have something to say to them." ”
After the Faceless Woman walked out of the room, Si Ming sat where she was, not saying a word. Si Ruo said in a low voice, "Just now...... Just now we all fell into a dream, and the faceless woman was the Elder of the Demon Gate's Heart Demon Hall, and she used the Heart Demon Secret Technique on us and brought us into the dream. ”
I nodded slightly, "How long have we been in the dream realm?"
"A few days after the dream, we dreamed for a few days. As she spoke, I had already seen the pinhole in the back of my hand, and when I looked into the room again, I probably understood a little bit. In the past few days, they have been using infusions to maintain our vitality, no wonder I am thirsty and hungry when I wake up.
Si Ruo cautiously handed me a bottle of mineral water: "Do you drink it?"
I smiled at Si Ruo, unscrewed the water bottle and poured it down, and Si Ruo smiled.
Last time, I was trapped in a dream because I drank the water that Si Ruo handed me. If I'm not mistaken, Si Ruo and I have already entered the dream arranged by Si Ming from the moment we walked out of the hotel to look for clues.
Si Ruo and I looked at each other and laughed, but Si Ming said coldly: "You see, this person's name is Wang Huan, he has joined the Detective Hands for less than a year, but he is the only one who sees through the puzzle. A few of you are all carefully cultivated disciples from each hall, don't you feel blushing?"
Ruan Dalong and the others lowered their heads at the same time, but their eyes flashed with dissatisfaction.
Si Ming said in a deep voice: "Among you, only the peach demon still has some ability. ”
"Xue Yulu, you think it's a shortcut to break away from the team to control the corpse soldiers, but have you controlled the corpse soldiers? ”
"Guo Yang, you have been hiding in the team to reap the benefits, but what have you done from beginning to end? I haven't seen any performance from you except for missing the opportunity. Timid, how can you look like a disciple of the Demon Sect?"
"Ruan Dalong, you could have united with Wang Huan, but you chose the wrong person to cooperate. You threw away the best partner you worked with, but you chose the peach demon who shouldn't be the one you shouldn't work with. Misjudgment is your fatal point. ”
"Peach Demon is not bad. Si Ming's face finally softened a little, but immediately became gloomy again, "No matter how good you behave, it's just that you take advantage of a little bit of the pill, and it's not worth mentioning." ”
The peach demon could only nod. Si Ming looked at Xiang and said lightly: "You are okay." ”
Xiang Lin was overjoyed immediately: "Thank the Demon Lord for complimenting." ”
Xiang Lin still didn't understand, what Si Ming praised was only his acting skills, not his person, he was at most a drama in Si Ming's eyes.
Si Ming waved his hand and said, "You all go out, go to the first floor and wait for orders." ”
After a group of people walked out of the house, Si Ming said, "Si Ruo, you actually disappointed me. The devil is ruthless, why can't you understand it?"
Si Ruo looked directly at the other party and said, "The Demon Dao is sentient. This is what Master said. ”
The avenue is ruthless, the demon road is ruthless, maybe it is the same way. However, the devil's way of being affectionate is the opposite, which is often said to be "entering the devil with love".
Ye Xun told me before that falling into the devil with love is a major branch of the demon path as the central demon, and there are many top masters among them, but those people have a fatal weakness, that is, love calamity. Therefore, the masters under the love demon sect rarely die well.
Si Ming couldn't help but shake his head and said, "I really shouldn't let you worship him as a teacher." I want you to follow the path of the supreme devil, but I don't want you to fall into the devil with love. Since ancient times, there has been no good end for those who fall in love with them. ”
Si Ruo retorted: "Who in the Demon Gate, has anyone ever had a good end?"
"You ......" a generation of demon lords were so angry that their daughters were dumbfounded and speechless.
I couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Si Ming suddenly became furious: "And you! You think it's great that you can break the game at the last moment, right? Being led by the nose all the way and I don't know, how did your master teach you?"
"He was indecisive, almost gave his life for a few irrelevant people, and took his opponent through two levels. ”
"I wanted to get out of the situation, but I didn't have that ability, and I almost died in the battle with others. ”
"When it comes to the end of the day, you just know how hard you can fight, how many lives do you have? You don't know what 'gambling life' is. ”
"If you pin all your hopes on others at the moment of life and death, don't you know the truth of 'illusion like heart'?
Si Ming almost roared out in the end: "If it weren't for Si Ruo's hints, you kid wouldn't have seen through the dream at the last moment." It's rubbish!"
