Chapter 33: Estrangement
"I'm sorry, sir! If you still need to smoke, you can move to the smoking room on our left. Cold sweat had soaked the waiter's back, but his professionalism still made him continue to add without humility or arrogance.
It wasn't until Wang Pengfei pinched the cigarette in the palm of his hand and stretched out three fingers to make an "OK" gesture of understanding, that Chen Feng dispersed the energy field that he was using to protect, and he hurried away from this place of right and wrong as if he had been amnesty.
It took 2 minutes to regain his strength, and the waiter's heart was still shocked: "Oh my God, what is the identity of that gentleman just now!" The waiter muttered in his heart.
Chen Feng, who had just stood up suddenly, made the waiter feel an unprecedented strong oppressive force, and at that moment he was like a lamb on the prairie, facing the gaze of the sideburns dogs alone, this kind of life and death were completely in the hands of the other party's thoughts. This kind of oppressive force was something he had never encountered even when entertaining the mayor. Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, the waiter quickly walked away from this table of guests, this table of people, it is definitely not simple, he said secretly in his heart.
"Okay, don't look like you're on the verge of being an enemy, I'm not like the other mad dogs?" Wang Pengfei waved his hand at Chen Feng, and the red glow in his eyes gradually disappeared, "Anyway, this is also your territory, and it's in front of you, I don't want to touch the bottom line of the three iron laws." ”
One of the three iron laws of the New Human Circle: it is strictly forbidden to show the special abilities of the New Human in front of ordinary people for any reason, and for violators, the law enforcers are eligible to be directly executed.
It is a harsh iron law, but it is also understandable that this is to maintain the stability of social order. The world is full of light, but where there is light, there must be dark corners that the light does not shine on. Think about it, if everyone in the world knows the concept of new humanity, how many people can stick to their original intentions?
Countless real-life cases have illustrated a phenomenon:
When an ordinary person suddenly has some kind of unusually powerful power, it does not mean that he will necessarily become a powerful superman, how many people do not think of money, power, and money immediately after gaining power?
If the spirit cannot be matched with the strength, the great dislocation of the mortal body and mind will only bring about distorted consequences.
The essence of supernatural power is in fact the most extreme right, and if the person who owns it is in a state of absolute freedom, how will the owner exercise this right? The essence of human beings is the sum total of all social relations, when the rights of individuals can transcend the evaluation of ordinary social order and moral system, without the constraints of the system and the control of other forces. His direction will depend entirely on his personal perception.
So will this person be like Magneto in the movie "X-Men" and embark on the path of destroying humanity, or will he be like Pete in the movie "Spider-Man" and embark on the path of helping others?
Either way, it will be a huge blow to the human social system! Spider-Man can only exist in film and television works, if all this really appears in the real world, how many people can stick to the hearts of mortals? You can imagine what kind of turmoil it would have been at that time, perhaps this was the dark and bloody age of the law of the jungle described in fantasy novels.
Chen Feng's inner thoughts were surging, fortunately Wang Pengfei was still sensible and did not do anything out of the ordinary, otherwise he really didn't know how he would face this former best friend next.
Gently smearing the finger prints on the table as little as possible to make them as inconspicuous as possible, Chen Feng sat down and plunged his body into the sofa.
"What's wrong?" Beside him, Cao Fan said with concern.
On the other side, Zhang Jian also cast a concerned gaze.
How could the two of them who didn't know understand the thoughts in Chen Feng's heart, which had already turned the world upside down, and only felt inexplicably ingenious. In their opinion, it was nothing more than Wang Pengfei lighting a cigarette just now, and a waiter came to stop him, and then Chen Feng stood up in a hurry, but he made the waiter nervous.
If it was just like that, Cao Fan and Zhang Jian would not be too surprised, it was just understandable that Chen Feng was going to help the waiter stop Wang Pengfei, but the waiter misunderstood what Chen Feng meant.
But then Wang Pengfei's words were very inexplicable, what other mad dogs? What are the three iron laws? What is this saying? Cao Fan and Zhang Jian's eyes kept looking at Chen Feng and Wang Pengfei.
There's a story in that!
After sitting down, Chen Feng also realized his gaffe. Facing the eyes of the two, he shook his head and didn't explain anything, just diverted the topic and beckoned everyone to continue eating.
Later, on the topic of school and life, Wang Pengfei ate the food on the table with little interest. Chen Feng was also secretly thinking about some things and was a little distracted, and he talked without a stubble.
Maybe it's because of the graduation and separation that they are about to face, and there is a slight gap between the foursome who once talked about everything.
With their own thoughts, the meal ended hastily not long after, and sent Cao Fan and Zhang Jian, who had drunk too much, to the taxi back to school, Chen Feng and Wang Pengfei glanced at each other, and walked along the street together under the neon night with a very tacit understanding.
"What are your plans? About later. After being silent for a long time, Chen Feng took the lead in breaking the silence.
"Chen Feng, do you know, it is a gift from God that we can obtain such power! Next, of course, we will continue to develop this power, master more powerful power, and maybe have a long life like in the novel. Speaking of this, Wang Pengfei turned around and looked directly into Chen Feng's eyes with burning eyes.
"That's probably not a good thing." Chen Feng's eyes were very thorough, and he spoke slowly.
"How could it not be a good thing?"
"I'm going to die!" Chen Feng's face turned sad, and all kinds of things came to mind about the night of Wudang Mountain, and the various experiences in the past six months were like watching flowers, flickering in front of his eyes like a silent film playing on an old projector.
"Dead?" The disdain in Wang Pengfei's eyes was even stronger, "Cowering, how can it be a big thing!" ”
"If you're looking for a way to get stronger with that mentality, you're not going to get very far. It's more likely that you'll die halfway. Chen Feng used an unusually serious tone, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him.
"Oh, then I'd like to hear it, you say, why?" Wang Pengfei clasped his hands in front of his chest, his face playful.
