Chapter 47: Trust
In the dark and dark cavern, the dull sound of bangbang constantly echoed, like the knock of a demon from the abyss, even if you can't see the bloody picture, you will still feel creepy and afraid.
Chen Xian is a person who likes to be silent.
Whether it is in daily life or in some special moments, he seems to be like this from beginning to end, living silently in this world as if he is a marginal person, no matter when and where, he will give people a feeling of being out of place with this world, just like at this moment......
When the head of the Yellow Turban Lux completely turned into rotten meat, Chen Xian stopped the knife in his hand, as if he was controlling himself to calm his emotions, he stood in the filthy scarlet land without saying a word, closed his eyes and kept taking deep breaths, and his body trembled slightly.
In the process of gradually killing the Yellow Turban Lux, Chen Xian wanted to put down the meat saw knife in his hand several times, and was ready to pounce directly on the belt bone to eat this monster into his stomach, but as soon as this thought came out, Chen Xian forcibly stifled it, he knew very well that the changes in himself at this moment were not only changes in physical functions, but also psychological ...... A type of lesion.
He found that after waking up from the black water this time, a strange "seed" seemed to be planted in his heart, bloodthirsty and murderous seemed to be the nature of that seed, and when his emotions were on the verge of getting out of control, that strange seed would begin to take root and sprout rapidly, as if it would bloom at any time a flower of cruel and sick evil thoughts.
Chen Xian didn't want to become a monster, although he didn't know what the kind of monster he imagined was, and he didn't know what the true meaning of that evil thought was, but he could imagine it...... Once you lose your mind and are manipulated by that evil thought, then you are no longer human.
What exactly is a human being?
Are you considered human?
Is a "human" like himself, who is almost completely immune to death and constantly reborn, really a human being?
Chen Xian had thought about these questions countless times in private, but according to the current analysis of species classification, the answer he got every time was not what he wanted, so he kept running away and often used the words his grandfather had said to him a long time ago to hypnotize himself.
"As long as you can maintain your basic human form, have the right sense of morality and empathy, and ensure that you still have the ability to empathize....... That's what humans are. Chen Xian muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
As soon as the words fell, Chen Xian slowly opened his eyes.
The eyeballs that were occupied by countless bloodshots before have returned to normal at this moment, and his eyes have naturally returned to their original state, looking as calm and thorough as a lake, as if people will feel at ease at a glance.
At the same time, the extremely dangerous aura on his body began to gradually dissipate, and the whole person changed back to the lazy and leisurely appearance of the past, maybe this is what he should be.
"Old ..... Boss ......." Lu Yisheng was so nervous that he couldn't slurred his speech, looked at the remains of the Yellow Turban Lux on the ground, and couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, "It's dead?" ”
Chen Xian nodded, gently stirred the remaining brain tissue on the ground with a meat saw, and said, "It's dead." ”
"What about this case...... Is the case closed....... Lu Yisheng asked cautiously.
Although Chen Xian didn't look dangerous at this moment, but inexplicably gave people a feeling of wanting to be close to him, but when he saw the remains of the Yellow Turban Lux on the ground, Lu Yisheng couldn't help but think of the bloody and cruel picture before, and he wanted to forget what he saw before, because he was afraid that he would have nightmares.
"The case should be closed."
Chen Xian lightly stepped on the muddy blood stains, the soles of his shoes were constantly pulled out of filaments by those jet-black mucus, in this foul-smelling and filthy place, he walked unhurriedly, like a gentleman strolling after the rain, and his natural gestures vaguely revealed half an inexplicable elegance.
Under the words and deeds of Chen Ba, an old rich man of unknown origin, although Chen Xian is lazy and silent, his self-cultivation is indeed much higher than that of ordinary aliens, and the temperament he has cultivated since childhood is not inferior to those children of alien families, and even surpasses it.
"I don't know what that old man is doing here, but I'm sure that the circle under it is the source of all the paper figures outside." Chen Xian walked up to Lu Yisheng, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said softly, "Now that it has been solved by me, those paper people in the housing area should also die, and the case is almost closed, right?" ”
Lu Yisheng is a straight man who only cares about women, so he didn't see anything special about Chen Xian in his usual days, at most he was so handsome that he was foul, but at this time, he suddenly realized, or felt Chen Xian's charm.
It's a unique charisma.
Although there is a faint sense of alienation between the words, as if he is a little resistant to approaching people, the gentle and calm tone and eyes give people a sense of closeness with great contrast, as if every word he says softly will fall on people's hearts unhurriedly, making people feel inexplicably relieved.
If I were a woman, I might really be hooked by him!
Lu Yisheng secretly muttered in his heart, not daring to look at Chen Xian's handsome and foul face.
"Why are you with Mu He?" Chen Xian asked curiously, "Did you meet in the room?" ”
"Yes." Lu Yisheng nodded, speaking of this, his expression was also a little embarrassed, and he seemed to feel a little embarrassed to be rescued by a girl, "I was blocked by those paper figures before, so I didn't die in their hands, if my sister-in-law hadn't arrived in time to solve those paper figures, I'm afraid I would ...... Oh yes, Boss! Sister-in-law is an alien, right?! ”
Hearing this, Chen Xian's gaze on Mu He's face slowly moved away, and he looked at Lu Yisheng silently, a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes, but this was only fleeting, Lu Yisheng did not see it, nor did he notice the subtle changes in Chen Xian's mood, he was still talking to himself.
"My sister-in-law is really amazing! Three times five divided by two, those paper figures will be destroyed! Lu Yisheng said in a loud voice, as if recalling the picture of Mu He single-handedly picking on a group of paper figures, his eyes were full of admiration, "Sister-in-law's combat power with her bare hands is so strong that it is terrifying, it may be ...... than the boss."
At this time, Chen Xian suddenly interrupted Lu Yisheng's words.
In the darkness, Chen Xian's calm eyes seemed to glow, and there was a look of doubt and doubt in his eyes.
"Can I trust you?"
Lu Yisheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this question, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Chen's gossip, and he couldn't understand why he suddenly asked like this, but Lu Yisheng still nodded instinctively and didn't say anything.
Chen Xian was silent without saying a word, and looked at Lu Yisheng with complicated eyes for a while, that strange look made Lu Yisheng a little creepy, although Lu Yisheng didn't know what Chen Xian was thinking, but he felt a danger very clearly and inexplicably.
"She's an alien, but no one knows about it." Chen Xian said softly, his subconsciously tense muscles slowly relaxed, he took his eyes off Lu Yisheng's face, and looked at the unconscious Mu He distressedly, "I hope you can help me keep it a secret, okay?" ”
Chen Xian's voice was very soft, but Lu Yisheng could hear the faint sense of anticipation in his words.
Not a threat.
It's not a pleading.
It's a kind of ...... that is difficult for Lu Yisheng to understand. Expect.
Lu Yisheng didn't know what Chen Xian's background was, and he didn't know what Chen Xian had experienced in the past ten years, so he couldn't understand Chen Xian's feeling of wanting to try to trust others and expecting others to make him trust.
"Sister-in-law didn't go to register?" Lu Yisheng asked softly.
Chen Xian nodded.
"That's right...... Although I don't know why you're hiding it...... But you've brought it up, boss, and I'm sure I won't talk nonsense! Lu Yisheng had a smile on his dirty face, and his clothes were in tatters, looking like the kind of big fool in the countryside, "We are friends!" ”
"Friends?" Chen Xian was suddenly stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at Lu Yisheng more, "Are you sure?" ”
Lu Yisheng scratched his head and asked depressedly; "Isn't it?"
Chen Xian was silent for a long time, he didn't speak, and the look in his eyes became complicated, as if he was thinking about something.
"We used to be just colleagues."
Chen Xian suddenly spoke, raised his hand and shook Lu Yisheng without warning, his movements were a little stiff and a little unnatural, as if the handshake was reluctant, but the smile that couldn't help but show on the corner of his mouth was telling Lu Yisheng that he was really happy now.
"But from now on, we're friends."
