Chapter 199: Cold

But this is clearly not a thing.

This is an era that values faithfulness, and what Jing Xuan has done has deviated far from this purpose.

Soldiers can act openly and honestly, because Sun Wu once said that "soldiers, sophistry".

Legalists can make strict laws openly, because after the Shang Dynasty, cruelty has become the representative of Legalism.

Famous people can play tricks openly, and vertical and horizontal families and guests can go back on their word openly...... However, Confucianism must maintain loyalty, righteousness and benevolence, Taoism needs to uphold pure and nihilistic action, and Mohists must abide by both love and non-aggression.

This may sound unfair, but in this era, this is the way it is, when a scholar makes a choice at the beginning of his life's path, he has already told the world that he will take this path, although he will die without regrets, and never retreat, this is his original intention.

People tolerate good and evil, forgiveness and punishment, but they despise practices that go against their hearts.

Jing Xuan's mistake is that he shouldn't have coaxed those soldiers and homeless people to make trouble with grandiose righteousness.

Barberry breathed a sigh of relief again, but fortunately, the truth was not revealed.

Whether she is taking care of her own reputation, the reputation of the Mo family, or the reputation of Jing Xuan, in short, she has not exposed these, in the end, she is a woman with general knowledge.

After all, the rumors of this era are really terrifying, especially when employing people, there is no trace of a handle.

This truth is naturally understood by Xie Wu, so she just smiled abruptly, and her hand brushed the dried blood on the ground over and over again, as if it were like this. to atone for sins.

Xie Wei pursed his lips, his mouth was full of bitter taste, and his eyes slowly turned to the sky with a hint of scarlet sunset in the dimness. Never before had she realized so clearly that she was guilty.

She has been practicing medicine for more than ten years and has saved many lives, but she herself knows that the motive is not pure.

Now, with the kindness and fame she has accumulated over the past ten years, she is implicitly asking people for their lives.

It's as if she's saving someone. Then she tactfully told him that the life she saved was to be used by her one day—how different was this from the intention of raising the dead?

It's a despicable thing (4) ∝ (4) ∝ (4) ∝ (4) ∝, m.↗.co ∞ m to dislike. The virtues and righteousness that the healers abide by will be destroyed by her.

That's enough sin to send you to hell......

It was Jing Xuan who dragged her into hell together, but she couldn't get out because of the medicine scripture she cared about. It's still in Jing Xuan's hands.

So she could only indulge him like this. Fall with him into the abyss from which there will never be recovered.

Relief of worries gave birth to powerlessness and despair, and that indomitable courage seemed to be leaving her, making her jump out of the idea of going with the flow in every trance.

…………

Jing Xuan led a few people to look around the city, searching for a few Qin troops who had just slipped through the net.

When he turned out of the narrow passage and entered the main street, he looked up and saw a girl in white kneeling on the side of the street, looking aimlessly at the sky. The thin figure looked particularly helpless in the setting sun.

He suddenly didn't know how to deal with it.

He thought about it, he did it. She will be very angry, she will fight, she will ignore him, or she will cry so much that she can't cry.

But he didn't expect that Xie Wu would be so calm and sit here so sadly.

Was she broken badly? But I had never seen her look like this before.

Jing Xuan suddenly panicked, he was afraid that this girl, who was so calm that she was about to petrify, would suddenly jump down from the city, although he knew that she would not be like this, but he was still very afraid.

"Worried......" Jing Xuan walked in her direction and walked lightly.

Xie Xie came back to his senses, raised his hand and stroked the wind-blown hair on his sideburns very slowly, moved his kneeling numb legs, and struggled to get up.

The twilight was dim, and she couldn't see Jing Xuan's face clearly, she could only see an outline outlined by the afterphoto, and her brows were furrowed with worry, casting a few thin shadows.

"Mokako." Xie Wu opened his mouth gently, and his slightly hoarse voice was very soft, as if he was tired of waiting for years, "Those who are worried about what they want, the medicine is also." Now that the deal has been completed, can the mound worry about the medicine scripture? ”

Jing Xuan was stunned, she, she turned out, this qiē was just a transaction.

She gave her favor and the trust of others in her, took the risk of ruining her reputation, and exchanged it for the medicine scripture she had devoted her heart and soul to him.

Relieved of her worries, yes, all the consequences of today's events will be borne by her alone; In the future, Jing Xuan can put all the blame on her, and she will not make any defenses.

Since she has finally slipped into the abyss of eternal light, what else is there for her to take care of?

might as well let Jing Xuan see what her madness and coldness are.

She comes from that era when human affection is cold, and she knows better than anyone that she can use anything to achieve her goals.

Jing Xuan stared at her intently, her empty eyes full of persistence that he couldn't read.

Maybe it's really wrong...... The thought swirled in his mind.

However, this guilt quickly dissipated, and there were so many things in front of him, and it was not too late to comfort and relieve his worries when he had dealt with them all—he thought, this girl's strange words and deeds today were just because of anger after all.

…………

The two were silent to each other, and walked side by side to the tower of Pang City.

There were a lot of blood stains from the fighting, and there were file marks from sharp weapons.

A distant afterglow casts the undulating shadows of the female wall on the ground, cutting a line between light and dark.

Xie Wei stood in the dark shadows, holding his hand on the edge of the female wall.

The surrounding qiē is rough and majestic, and among the rough lines full of eyes, only this delicate girl stands upright, like a fragile Qionghua in the desert north wind and sand.

Jing Xuan is not the only one who is stupid.

This situation has made too many people want to be protective.

"There are assassins."

In a piece of tranquility, the words that relieve worries are like a light feather, fluttering and falling on the head of the city.

She rolled her eyes and repeated softly, "Guys, there are assassins. ”

It was not only the halberd-wielding guards around him who were stunned, but even the person who was approaching with what he thought was a very stealthy and imperceptible movement, all of them were stunned for a moment.

How could this girl, this girl, make this sentence so plain?

Since ancient times, no one has ever been so calm about these three words, shouldn't she be frightened, shouldn't she scream? How could she be so calm?!

Barberry was the first to come back to his senses, and quickly locked on the suspicious person in Xie Jie's mouth, and with a single sword, it pierced the man's chest.

No way...... How could this girl notice his traces, and how could she so calmly raise her voice as a warning?

Until the man fell heavily on the tower and fell into his own pool of blood, his eyes widened in confusion and shock.
