Volume 1: Prologue, A Ray of Light Chapter 69: The Man Who Played Chess

The night was deep, and the succession of the ancestor and grandson Huiru and the new king under the wolf god mountain in the imperial capital city occurred almost at the same time, and Yelu Langya became the new wolf king.

If the jade card had not been lost by the old beggar as gambling money, the soul of the little beggar would not have been ingested by "Zhoushan Walking Rain", let alone injured.

Hongxiao said sullenly: "Childe often says, 'There is no way for good and evil, but people call themselves', since the old beggar can't quit gambling, why should Childe go to great lengths to give away jade plates? ”

Yelin looked directly at the sleeping demon baby Hitomito at his feet, and said softly: "The old beggar is addicted to gambling and can't be persuaded to turn back, if something happens on weekdays, he can always settle it with the magic of their ancestors and grandchildren, but if one day it is the same as tonight, there is a situation where they are helpless, I am afraid that not only the old beggar, but also the innocent victim." ”

The words are in the clouds, and the edge is hidden.

Hongxiao's expression became more and more solemn, and asked, "What did Childe see?"

Staring at the stars and clouds in the night sky, flickering and erratic, like the mortal world, rootless duckweed, they are as ill-fated as the mortal world, and they will quietly go out and disperse at some point, and there is no sound left.

The world is impermanent.

Yelin sighed: "Whether the old beggar can grow up safely is not in himself, but in the old beggar, even if the old beggar is wrong, he should not bear it for his grandfather, I am naturally willing to pull a hand, this is a heavenly opportunity, it is also a fate, I can tell you clearly, but I can't say it directly to the grandchildren, otherwise it will only harm them." ”

According to Yelin's temperament, he is unwilling to use the safety of the child as a bargaining chip for the child no matter what, and the reason why Yelin knew that the little beggar would be injured but did not remind him was because he expected that his life would not be in danger, and he would still have time to save it.

What about later?

Not necessarily in time. Hence the move.

Hongxiao nodded and said: "The world has had, and it is often the relatives around you who are affected, and the son borrowing the jade card as a guide is a warning in disguise." ”

Speaking of this, Hong Xiao couldn't help frowning, and said, "But why didn't the son just take the away? Even if it is given to others to raise, it is better than being killed by his own grandfather." Doesn't it seem somewhat... Some ......"

Yelin said for her: "It's too subtle, it's not simple, is it?"

Hongxiao nodded.

Yelin said: "The world is complicated, human feelings are complicated and troubled, how can you say it clearly in one sentence or two? Even if the old beggar is willing to entrust him to me, and he is willing to leave his grandfather, the implication between them is still there. ”

Wei Yang frowned and said, "It's more difficult to change your life to a mortal than to ascend to the sky, is it the same for you?"

Yelin stretched out the bamboo umbrella to isolate the outside world, stretched out his hand and pointed upward, and said: "The number of lives involves the cause and effect of Buddhism, which is an extremely clever means of Buddhism, mostly seen in the underworld and the world, but anyone or thing who has experienced reincarnation is born with countless fine lines of cause and effect, these lines of cause and effect cannot be seen or touched, but they can secretly sway you, making you irresistible, such as who are the parents who gave birth to you, who is the master who taught you, what sect and sect you are taught from, how many brothers and sisters, close friends and enemies you will meet, and even all the encounters in your life- No matter what exercises you have learned, what magic weapons you have gained, no matter what you gain or lose now, what price you will have to pay for this in the future, and what you will gain in the future, you will not be able to escape cause and effect, and it is very terrible. So how easy is it to change my life? The implication is too wide, at least for the time being, I don't want to be an enemy of it, let alone easily interfere. ”

Unconsciously, Wei Yang's back was already soaked in cold sweat, and everything from life to death was firmly held in the palm of his hand, how could he not be shocked?

The Buddha that Yelin refers to is not a monk from the White Dragon Temple in Yanzhou, but a Buddha who represents the upper realm, the real Buddha, those high-ranking beings don't bother to use any conspiracy to control the world, they want to do all this, they just use a Dharma.

In addition to the Buddha, of course, there will be gods, demons, demons, immortals, etc., just tonight, Wei Yang saw the legendary Five Realms, so what about the Five Realms?

There's a lot of people here.

Are they standing just outside the sky, overlooking the world?

Such as the mighty Ming National Teacher, isn't it a bigger ant?

Wei Yang couldn't help but think that the land of Shenzhou, where he and most people in the world couldn't get out of it for half his life, was actually just a chessboard for the superiors, no matter whether they rose or fell, but they thought about it.

It was a lot of hands so big that you couldn't see the whole picture, as if the sky was covering your head. Not only people, but when this hand is pressed, the sky also falls, and everything under the sky has to face a reshuffle, and nothing is immune.

Yelin put away the umbrella, patted Wei Yang and Hongxiao on the shoulders, woke them up, and said with a smile: "It's unfounded to think too much, it's still early, and life must go on." Even if no one plays chess, the world will eventually change on its own, so whether there is such a group of people behind the scenes actually means nothing to you, you can't see their dignity, and they won't be idle to care about your life or death, you just need to think about how to survive on this chessboard. ”

At Yelin's feet, the demon infant Hitomi Yuan had already woken up, his eyes were slightly cold, and his childish voice was immature, and he said, "Then you are also a chess player?"

Yelin lowered his head and smiled: "Well, I'm half." Because I don't like the way they treat mortals as ants, even if they live in the lower realm, even if they are inferior to them, people are still human beings, people have joys and sorrows, people have joys and sorrows, and the weak should also have freedom, right? There is no reason to be manipulated, and they should not be played with as playthings. ”

In the face of this kind of high-minded talk of claiming to be a saint to save the world and help the people, Hitomichi was disgusted, and said coldly: "You encircle Kyushu into a chessboard, use all living beings as chess pieces, and stand at a height that all the people will not be able to reach in their lifetime and start to control the development of the situation in the entire Kyushu, how do you know that you are different from them? How can you be sure that you are playing a game with them, instead of colluding with them and making the world more chaotic?"

Yelin took a few steps forward, sat alone on the head of the boat, and said softly: "The superior should have the demeanor of the superior, if the world is wrong, point it out and help change it; if the world is right, don't interfere more, let it develop, and give the weaker people in the lower position more freedom." ”

"Of course I know that I am no different from mortals in the world, but I want everyone in the world to have a good life, and I do have the opportunity to do it, and I have to try to succeed or not. It's like Yongzhou, before I came, there was nothing more chaotic and miserable at all, people cannibalism can be seen everywhere, and people even live one more day is a luxury, but now it's good, it's a little human. Not to mention food and clothing, at least everyone has something to do, a place to live, something to eat, clothes to keep out the cold, and in a few years, you can also think about eating meat for a while. ”

Yelin rubbed his shoulders, it was very sore and heavy, but he was not tired at all, and he was still a little happy, because of longing.

Yelin looked back and smiled: "This includes you, although you are one of their pawns, I will not kill you, I will use you, but you are just a person to me, not a pawn, if you don't do bad things, I hope you will also have a better life." ”

Hitomichi lost his mind for a moment, and the words of the white-shirted young man were very infectious, even if Hitomichi might not believe it, his heartstrings had been tugged.

And there's also-

Yelin looks good when he laughs, it's really good-looking.

Like a flower in the wind, a glow on the horizon,

The most apt thing that Hongxiao thought of was the only and warmest beam of light shining into the cold abyss.

Let people see hope.
