Chapter 109: Confrontation, Who Plants Cause and Effect?
Fox Zhiyi chuckled, the corners of his lips flashed with a touch of bewitchment, but for some reason, he stopped talking, and Hei Ling had to be silent, and the two stared at the dexterous figure from the roof, no matter how small, to the window of a certain room.
That figure was none other than Zhu Fan, who was waiting for the opportunity.
The occasional sound of people in the street did not affect her in the slightest, and when she reached the eaves, she squinted, lifted and jumped onto the big tree closest to the window of the house, and then leaned slightly, grabbed the beam under the eaves, and then deftly flipped it over, and hung it upside down.
The candle flame in the room flickered softly, and the two little apprentices had fallen asleep at some point, only the man in a loose black robe was still sitting on the bed with his eyes closed.
The faint yellow candlelight seemed to sense someone approaching, and the flames, which had been quiet a moment before, flickered gently in an instant.
Zhu Fan didn't think about going in quietly, and she also knew that it was impossible to enter quietly in front of this man, so after seeing the situation in the house, she tentatively reached out and pushed the window.
Originally, if the bolt was put on the inside, she would pry it open with a knife, but her hand only touched the window, and she easily pushed it open.
The sound of "squeak" is almost inaudible, which shows that the conditions of this inn that has spent a lot of money are good, and if you change it to another inn, regardless of the doors and windows, it is estimated that there is more than this sound.
Zhu Fan stayed outside for a while, and the latter turned over and landed lightly, and then closed the window, and a series of actions were almost all in one go without a trace of mud and water.
Chen Qing was still sitting on the bed, not even moving his eyelids, and those who didn't know probably thought he was asleep.
But Zhu Fan would not be so careless, nor would she be so lucky, she looked at Chen Qing, and then shifted her gaze to the soft couch in the outhouse, beside the two sleeping little apprentices.
Raised his feet and turned the direction, still so light that there was no sound, and when he walked to the bedside, he raised his hand and slashed the back of the neck of the two little apprentices almost without the slightest hesitation, only to feel that the breathing of the two was lighter, and Zhu Fan turned around and returned to the screen separating the inner room from the outhouse.
"Don't pretend, I know you're awake," she looked at Chen Qing and finally spoke.
Chen Qing didn't open his eyes, Zhu Fan hooked his lips and sneered, pulled out the dagger in his sleeve, it was as fast as lightning, and when the dagger almost pierced the man's throat, the man finally opened his eyes.
However, as soon as he touched his open eyes, Zhu Fan's pupils shrank suddenly, and the dagger in his hand was no longer close to him.
Knowing that he had the ability, Zhu Fan was not annoyed by this, he only withdrew his hand and looked at him with a sneer, and after calming down, he was no longer afraid of the eyes that he couldn't see at all.
After a moment of silence, Chen Qing slowly spoke: "The cycle of cause and effect, the cycle of life and death, retribution, when, girl, do you think, who planted the cause?" And who bears the fruit? ”
Sure enough, he knew her.
Zhu Fan suppressed the feeling that the cold hairs on his body stood up, and there was mockery in his eyes.
"You yourself have said that the cycle of cause and effect is over, so why do you need to ask me who planted the cause and who inherited the effect, and I came here today to take your dog's life, so as to save your demon from harming the world again!"
She admitted that the moment she saw Chen Qing, she was afraid, in the end it was the person who sent her to Huangquan in her previous life, how could she not be afraid.
However, there is no way, Chen Qing must die, only if he dies, some things can go smoothly.
"You are too resentful," Chen Qing's eyes didn't know where to "see".
Zhu Fan was amused by his words and said, "Since you can see the cause and effect clearly, is it possible that you can't see the cause of my resentment, do you think it's heavy?" I don't think it's heavy enough to talk to you here. ”
Chen Qing was silent, and then said: "In this way, you have decided that I am a person who inherits cause and effect." ”
His tone was flat and light, as if the person standing in front of him was not someone who wanted his life.
Zhu Fan didn't answer and asked: "Otherwise, what do you think?" Am I here to play? ”
After she finished speaking, Chen Qing, who was originally expressionless, unexpectedly hooked the corners of her lips slightly, and her eyes like black holes looked even more weird.
"What are you laughing at?" A chill rose on Zhu Fan's back, and when he met the pair of dark pupils again, he suddenly didn't seem to be so scared in his heart.
There was still a smile on the corner of Chen Qing's mouth, "Whatever you want, I will laugh, the world is not self-sufficient, thinking that it can fight against the sky, but I don't know that the things in this world have long been destined, do you think you can kill me?" ”
Although Zhu Fan didn't have a fluke mentality, he also knew that he had the ability, but he never thought that he would hear such arrogant words from his mouth, and he was naturally uncomfortable.
The corners of her lips pulled out a touch of coldness, and she narrowed her eyes, "Kill or not, each depends on his ability!" ”
After speaking, she didn't give Chen Qing a chance to speak, raised the dagger in her hand and attacked Chen Qing.
Chen Qing seemed to have expected her to make such a move, and when the tip of the dagger was about to reach his throat, he only tilted his head slightly, and easily dodged the attack.
Zhu Fan's eyes froze, and she was not discouraged because of this, only this time she did not attack Chen Qing directly, but after making a false move, she used her strength advantage to tear open the sheets sitting under Chen Qing.
Chen Qing didn't expect her to come to such a trick, her body staggered, and she almost grabbed the ground with her head.
Zhu Fan sneered silently, and stepped forward with a knife, but just when the tip of her knife was clearly about to touch the person's throat, the situation that had just started appeared again.
Chen Qing's body seemed to be blocked by a barrier, and that barrier prevented her knife from touching his body, even if she was already sweating profusely, she still couldn't do it.
Chen Qing had already sat down again, without the slightest panic on his face, "I said, you can't kill me." ”
After a pause, he said again when Zhu Fan's anger was even stronger: "You think that I am your cause and effect, but you don't know that there is another person who is connected with this cause and effect, girl, don't be obsessed anymore, if you will only make mistakes and make mistakes, you will never recover." ”
"Wrong?" He said so much, but Zhu Fan only heard this word in her heart, she stopped her movements and looked at the person who seemed to be the old god, and smiled.
"According to your meaning, then I was wrong, heh, Chen Qing, I have to ask you, what is wrong with me? What's wrong? Your so-called fate is the most unwilling for me, you say it will never be recovered? ”
She felt ridiculous, "I have long been doomed, after your cause is planted, all the evil consequences are doomed, today you say that I can't kill you, that is, you don't want to die, if you want to die, you won't resist, I will easily succeed, you don't want to die, how can I want to die?" ”
Her heart was completely calm, and even her eyes were clearer, and her heart was full of hatred, but she felt that it was not a big deal, this feeling was indescribably familiar, but she couldn't remember where it had appeared.
There seemed to be something in his body that broke out of the ground, and there seemed to be a hallucination in front of him, thinking that there was a faint layer of black qi lingering on Chen Qing's body.
She didn't know if it was a hallucination or what, but the black aura of her intuition gave her a very uncomfortable feeling, which made her body boil even her blood.
Chen Qing originally wanted to reason with her, but he didn't think that the aura of the person in front of him changed completely after saying these words.
Heaven gave him the ability to see the future and break the past, but he withdrew his eyes that could see the world, but he never had any grievances because of this, because he knew that no one was exempt from the balance of gains and losses.
He had lived most of his life, and he had never seen or heard anything, but he couldn't hear any movement of the little girl at this moment, and only felt that the aura around her changed at that moment and then disappeared.
He didn't simply think that she was gone, narrowed his invisible eyes, and said: "Life and death have fate, death is lighter than a feather or heavier than Mount Tai, why can't you change your mind and think, do you know that what you are pursuing is just a dream of Nan Ke in the end, even if you really kill me today, you can't change the person who created cause and effect." ”
Zhu Fan calmed down, so she was no longer as impatient as Fang Cai.
After a slight sneer, she said: "You keep saying that you and I are not people of cause and effect, then I want to ask, if you and I are really not, why do you want me to bear all this, let me bear all this with him?" Chen Qing, the excuse is not what you are looking for, and people like you are not suitable for finding excuses, really. ”
He said it, didn't he? It was he who told them that she was the chosen son of God and that she needed to be sacrificed alive to keep the village safe.
For thousands of years, Zhujia Village, a place at the junction of the four directions, a place that even the superiors of all parties have forgotten, didn't it survive in this way?
Zhu Shu Old Man and they went out and came back, but they still couldn't change the fate of this place being abandoned, or maybe they weren't abandoned from the beginning, but they didn't belong to anyone from the beginning.
She didn't know what kind of existence such a place was, but she remembered clearly how the children who died for this village were all dying step by step in those books.
"You think that 'he' has inherited this fruit with you," Chen Qing also smiled when Zhu Fan felt amused.
Zhu Fan pursed the corners of his lips and looked coldly, "What do you want to say?" ”
The curvature of the corners of Chen Qing's lips was bigger than Fang Cai, and he didn't pick up after Zhu Fan finished asking, still smiling.
He said, "Girl, what if I say that he is the one who bears this cause and effect?" What will you do? ”
Xu was his words about that person, maybe it was the pair of eyes that didn't shine when he said this, as if a flash of light flashed, which made Zhu Fan's calm heart tremble, but he felt funny.
"Chen Qing, you are afraid, you are scared and confused," she looked at him and said, "This matter may be related to everyone, but it will not be related to him, he is just a person who has been implicated, your rhetoric is full of loopholes, even if you say that he is a monster next, I will only think it is funny." ”
