Chapter 219: Cause and Effect
Trench villages should not exist at all.
It was this sentence that let Cang'er know who was the real culprit who destroyed the trench village.
It was the captain Aconitum in front of him that he had always admired.
Aconite said: "After knowing the truth, do you hate me very much?" Hate me for destroying your beloved home? ”
Cang Fen was silent, and his heart was extremely conflicted.
"You hate me for killing your parents and killing your friends, don't you?" Aconitum approached Cang'er, "Let me tell you another fact, not only you, but also other people, all the children born in the trench village, their biological mothers were brutally killed after giving birth to them, and then handed over to the killers to raise and train, instill their perverted concepts, and let the children become killing machines from an early age, even if there are 10,000 pure sea moons in the trenches, they will eventually become 10,000 poisonous aconitums, so I have to end all this, I want to completely destroy the trench village and uproot it!" ”
What the? Fake? Everything is fake? Cang'er couldn't believe his ears: "You mean, my parents are not my biological parents at all?" ”
Aconite said coldly: "All the parents of the night owl team are originally just ordinary people, with a happy life and family, the cloud will quietly select healthy and intelligent couples, and then wait quietly, waiting for the woman to get pregnant, he will even send people to send money and food in various names, just to ensure the health of the child in the belly, waiting for the woman to give birth, and then take it to the trench village." ”
Cang'er looked at the aconitum in surprise.
Wutou continued: "Your parents are surnamed Zhang, your father's name is Zhang Shicai, your mother's name is Zhang Shifang, a person from Huang County, the day you were born was your mother's death day, and your father died of depression two years after birth and was buried outside Huang County. ”
Cang Er almost didn't stand firm when he heard this: "You ......"
The black head shook his head and said, "I don't have to lie to you. ”
Cang'er suddenly remembered something: "Then why did you send Benzoin to be a spy in the Yaksha team?" Isn't it just to find out the truth? ”
Aconite said lightly: "That's right, it's really to find out the truth, but not for the trench village I destroyed, but to find out if the remaining group of people has anything to do with Feng Manlou and what they want to do." ”
Cang Er was puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”
"Over the years, I have been incognito, refusing to show my true face, and I have rarely seen you, and the reason for this is that I am investigating the whereabouts of the clouds alone. ”
Cang'er asked, "When the village was slaughtered, wasn't the cloud dead?" ”
Aconite shook his head: "No, he didn't die, he just died, he was just his stand-in, I was raised by him, he couldn't deceive me, under my careful investigation, I finally found out that Yunshang was the leader of Fengmanlou at all!" ”
Cang'er was shocked again, and this time he couldn't even speak.
Aconite said again: "When I checked further, I found another truth - there is a lone man on the cloud. ”
Cang'er didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and only said after a long time: "Alone? Alone in the Other!? You mean, Lone Man single-handedly founded the killer organization of Feng Manlou!? ”
Aconite said: "Yes, the more I check, the more scared I feel, and I find that it seems that every sect in the different ways is inextricably linked with the lonely army, what exactly does this organization want to do, what purpose do they have, I don't know, my ability is limited, so far I haven't found out, but the only thing that I have figured out is that the lonely army has always wanted to find Ling Jian, which is why we appeared in Yongcheng." ”
●
Zhangjia Courtyard, Zhang Dingfeng was extremely surprised after listening to Hu Shen's account of the past and the truth of the trench village and aconitum village, he didn't expect that there was such a connection between the trench village and Fengmanlou.
Zhang Dingfeng wanted to continue asking, but he touched a certain nerve of Hu Shen, so he had to be silent.
Hu Shen said: "At that time, I was very confused, I was traveling around the world, aimless, I didn't know what I wanted to do, and I seemed to feel that as long as I wanted to do, I could do anything, but what really bothered me, do you know? ”
Zhang Dingfeng looked at the expressionless Hu Shen and shook his head.
Hu Shen lowered his voice and said: "I don't know if I should be a good person or be the root of all evil!" ”
Hu Shen's flower language coupled with the indescribable strange expression on his face made Zhang Dingfeng shudder, and he had to be stunned on the spot.
The encounter between Hu Shen and Haiyue was entirely accidental, when Hu Shen was staying in a temple deep in the mountains, and the twenty monks in this temple were about to face a bloody disaster.
Late at night, Hu Shen, who couldn't sleep for a long time, came out of the house, and as soon as he went out, he smelled a strong smell of blood, he subconsciously looked for the smell of blood, but found the corpse of the monk lying in a pool of blood on the shabby Daxiong Treasure Hall.
There was also a red candle on the altar, and the faint light of the red candle illuminated a man in black with a knife in front of him, and the abbot of the temple who was in front of him with his hands folded and ready to accept death.
"One is missing." A voice sounded in the darkness, and in an instant, a long knife struck Hu Shen from the darkness.
Hu Shen dodged slightly, punched the knife-wielder in the chest, directly knocked him a foot away, and then said, "Who are you?" Probably not your average bandit, right? ”
The black-clothed man who restrained the abbot said coldly: "You are not an ordinary pilgrim. ”
Woman? Hu Shen was stunned for a moment, in his impression, women who can attack such viciousness are generally from two organizations, one is Fengmanlou and the other is Yunshang Village.
The other killer who was hit hard clutched his chest and returned to the woman in black and whispered, "It's a hard stubble." ”
Hu Shen asked: "Are the two of you from Fengmanlou or Yunshang Village?" ”
The two men in black were stunned for a moment, and the woman asked, "You are really not an ordinary person." ”
Hu Shen responded coldly: "You have already killed a lot of people, let the abbot go, otherwise, you won't be able to leave, you all have to die here." ”
The two men in black knew that what Hu Shen said was true, and the other person had fought with Hu Shen before, but he was defeated with just one move, and Hu Shen was obviously retained, if he used all his strength, I am afraid that person would have died on the spot.
After thinking about it, the woman in black put down the long knife in her hand, and was about to leave with another person, but Hu Shen stretched out her hand to stop her: "Don't worry, I changed my mind, you have to leave one person to pay for your life." ”
As soon as these words came out, the woman in black didn't say a word, and directly ended her companion's life with a knife, and then quickly slashed her companion's face, making it impossible to identify, and then said, "Is it okay?" ”
Hu Shen raised his hand and said, "Please." ”
The woman in black walked a few steps but stopped: "I also changed my mind, you owe me two lives." ”
When Hu Shen heard this, he looked at the woman in black: "Aren't you afraid of death?" ”
The woman in black said to herself: "You don't let me kill that monk, this is the first life, you forced me to kill my brother, this is the second life, two, I will let you return it sooner or later." ”
Hu Shen said: "You are very interesting, is there something wrong with your brain?" ”
The woman in black turned away and disappeared into the night.
This was the first time Hu Shen met Aconitum , at that time Aconitum was still called Haiyue, but they didn't know each other's names and identities, but the words between the abbot and Hu Shen afterwards made Hu Shen feel extremely puzzled.
"You shouldn't save me." The fearless abbot slowly got up.
Hu Shen hugged his fists and said, "I'm sorry, if I had come earlier......"
"No, you shouldn't save me." The abbot walked up to Hu Shen, "It's all cause and effect." ”
Hu Shen wondered: "Cause and effect? What have you done before to get people to kill you? And so many people were implicated? ”
The abbot shook his head and said: "Maybe it is, maybe it's not, maybe I was killed because of the cause, and the person who killed me in the future will naturally get a doomed result because of this, and you save me, maybe it's the cause, maybe it's the effect, the cycle of cause and effect, everything is fate, why bother, why bother." ”
Hu Shen frowned, but what he thought in his heart was: This monk has a problem with his brain.
That night, Hu Shen left the temple, and after leaving, he looked back to find that the temple in the mountain had already burned into flames.
Hu Shen looked at Zhang Dingfeng and said: "After many years, I finally figured out what the abbot said, what he wanted to tell me was that everything in the world is related, you think that there is a cause if there is an effect, but in fact, it is not, because some things only have the immediate result, and there is no cause, good and evil are only instantaneous, I made a move at that time, not out of justice, but just a momentary thought." ”
Zhang Dingfeng was puzzled, but just shook his head.
Hu Shen said: "Many years later, when I was famous as an eight-armed Arhat, I met Haiyue again, and at that time she had become an aconitum, and she came here and asked me to give her back two lives." ”
Zhang Dingfeng blurted out: "Ridiculous." ”
Hu Shen smiled bitterly: "It's ridiculous, but the moment she took off her mask, I didn't think it was ridiculous." ”
Zhang Dingfeng asked, "Why?" ”
Why? Because the vast majority of men will still waver in the face of the requirements of peerless beauties, even if they hold principles, of course, Hu Shen is no exception.
Of course, Hu Shen has other plans, and since then, he has already begun to lay out for the sake of Lingjian, so he needs trenches, aconitum aconite, and an insurance to help him at a critical moment in the future.
Hu Shen said: "This is the main reason why I want to help her." ”
Zhang Dingfeng asked: "Uncle Shi, I'm just curious, how did you strategize and send a small number of people to slaughter the trench village from thousands of miles away?" ”
Hu Shen said: "That's not slaughter, that's poison, to kill a group of people in large quantities, the best way is to use poison, and I had already found out the relationship between Feng Manlou and Yunshang Village, that is, later Trench Village, so I specially spent a lot of money to hire Feng Manlou's killer." ”
Zhang Dingfeng was puzzled: "Since you know, why do you still do that?" ”
Hu Shen said with a smile: "Whether it's Fengmanlou or Trench Village, naturally I don't want the outside world to know the connection between them, when someone pays a high price for Fengmanlou to deal with Trench Village, if Fengmanlou doesn't accept this deal, it means that they think that the two are in the same vein, so they have to take it, and I know very well that the owner of Fengmanlou will naturally come to me." ”
As Hu Shen expected, on the third day after Feng Manlou took over the deal, Yun Shang, the leader of Feng Manlou, appeared in Hu Shen's room and asked Hu Shen who he was? What is the purpose?
Although he was masked on the clouds, Hu Shen still reported his name.
Yun Shang was not surprised, and after taking off his mask, he asked rhetorically: "You spent a lot of money to buy my news in the Underworld, right?" ”
Hu Shen said lightly: "Money doesn't mean anything to me. ”
Yun Shang asked, "What exactly do you want to do?" ”
Hu Shen said: "I'm saving you, I know that Aconitum is a disciple you have cultivated for many years, and you regard it as a daughter, but you didn't think that the person who would kill you in the end was also her, but she didn't know it yet, you are the master of Feng Manlou, and I also know that you were originally alone!" ”
