Chapter 955: Repentance, Atonement
Zhuo Yi is not stupid, he is just wrong because he believes in his brother too much. He believed all the nonsense Zhuo Lan said without any doubt. In fact, if Zhuo Yiken thought about it, Zhuo Lan's nonsense would be easily exposed.
It's just that Zhuo Yi didn't want to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it.
If it is really confirmed, his own brother deceived him and used him, and never treated him as a human being. Zhuo Yi will collapse, no, he will collapse. Not a collapse, but a collapse.
Therefore, Zhuo Yi can only choose to believe Zhuo Lan's nonsense. At least then, he still has hope of living. At least, he had always thought that his nightmare was the only way to save his brother.
Only with such a thought can Zhuo Yi survive.
Otherwise, no one would have survived that nightmare.
You can understand that this is Zhuo Yi's stupidity, but it is also a mechanism for human self-protection.
When you know that the truth will make you collapse, people will subconsciously choose the lie that will be broken without poking. Because in this way, you can protect yourself.
This is not difficult to understand.
Ignore the truth and don't look at it, but believe the story. It's not that I don't know the lie, it's just that I don't want to believe it.
Zhuo Yi at that time was probably such a state and state of mind.
And Ye Nanchuan's appearance shattered the last bit of expectation in his heart. It also destroyed the only support for him to live.
But at the same time, Ye Nanchuan gave Zhuo Yi a new support to live-
That thing, maybe love, right?
Zhuo Yi didn't quite understand it himself.
Let's just count it as love!
Zhuo Yi is just willing to be sure of one thing, if there is really such a person in this world who can make him trust, that person must be Ye Nanchuan. There is only Ye Nanchuan.
After going through too much deception and betrayal, the man who tore up his dreams and gave him cruel facts, but never deceived him, was his only trust.
Ye Nanchuan is very honest, he has never deceived Zhuo Yi.
Killing Zhuo Yi can make him never suffer in the future, Ye Nanchuan has never concealed this from Zhuo Yi. On the contrary, he also told Zhuo Yi very frankly. Tell Zhuo Yi about the killing intent in his heart, as well as the struggle in his heart, and finally, the kindness in his heart.
killed Zhuo Yi, and there was no proof of death.
Leaving Zhuo Yi behind, there will be endless troubles.
These two choices made Ye Nanchuan entangled in his heart and even more hesitant.
As a politician, he should not hesitate to choose to kill Zhuo Yi.
But as a person, Ye Nanchuan couldn't make this decision.
That young man who has been experiencing darkness and is in hell since he was born, how could Ye Nanchuan kill him? Ye Nanchuan has killed too many people, but those people are all damned people. Killing them, Ye Nanchuan had a clear conscience. But killing Zhuo Yi made him feel guilty in his heart.
In particular, after seeing Zhuo Yi's eyes full of fear, unease, and injury, Ye Nanchuan couldn't give the order to kill him.
Hiding Zhuo Yi in that isolated mountain village is the biggest manifestation of Ye Nanchuan's hesitation.
Ye Nanchuan did not hide anything from Zhuo Yi.
He told Zhuo Yi that once he couldn't get through that crisis, or that Zhuo Yi's existence would always threaten his future and the safety of the Ye family, then he would definitely kill Zhuo Yi.
Zhuo Yi listened with a smile on his face, never saying a word.
Until...... Ye Nanchuan came to see him for the last time. With the good news that he has safely passed the biggest crisis of his life.
Zhuo Yi until, his own life, at this moment, was also in Ye Nanchuan's thoughts.
Ye Nanchuan has successfully survived that crisis, as long as he kills him, Ye Nanchuan will be able to avoid future troubles forever. Even Zhuo Lan has no way to threaten him with this matter anymore, threatening his bright future.
Zhuo Yi didn't say anything, he just waited quietly, waiting for Ye Nanchuan's final decision.
And Ye Nanchuan, facing the taciturn teenager, said a lot. There is his acquaintance, love, acquaintance, and stay with his wife. There was also the birth of his son and the birth of his daughter. And he has done a lot of things on the road. There are good and bad ones, and there are choices in desperation.
That night, Ye Nanchuan delayed his return to Jiangnan Province. Zhuo Yi, on the other hand, made a decision. A decision that changed the fate of the rest of his life - he wants to get revenge! Revenge on Zhuolan!
Zhuo Yi didn't know why he made such a decision after listening to Ye Nanchuan talk to himself for an afternoon.
Obviously, Zhuo Lan did such an excessive thing to him, and he never had the idea of revenge.
He didn't know, and he couldn't figure it out.
He just felt he had to do it. Otherwise, he will regret it for the rest of his life.
After Ye Nanchuan fell asleep, Zhuo Yi secretly left the isolated mountain village. Left the small mountain village where his instinct allowed him to spend the rest of his life in peace.
However, Zhuo Yi actually did not go far. He was on a hill not far from the cabin where Ye Nanchuan was sleeping.
He thought that Ye Nanchuan would come to him, and he had thought about it, if Ye Nanchuan came to him. He gave up that crazy idea of revenge, and he spent the rest of his life in the small mountain village in peace.
However, Ye Nanchuan did not go to him.
When he learned the news of his departure, Ye Nanchuan didn't say anything and did nothing. He just calmly walked away.
At that time, Zhuo Yi thought that maybe in Ye Nanchuan's heart, he was not so important. The reason why he didn't kill him and left him alive was just that Ye Nanchuan pitied him.
By the way, at that time, Ye Nanchuan's daughter had just been born. Yes, Zhuo Yi remembered. Ye Nanchuan said a word, he said that he had killed many people in his life, and he had also been assassinated by many people. This time, he didn't want to kill again. Because his daughter had just completed the moon, he said, as if he was giving his daughter a blessing.
Ye Nanchuan also said that his age was about the same age as his son. He couldn't do anything to a boy his son's age.
At that time, Zhuo Yi didn't know who Ye Nanchuan's son was and what he looked like.
He just envied the boy his age.
Obviously they are all about the same age, but their situation is so different.
He's just envious.
Before going to the capital for revenge, Zhuo Yi sneaked into Jiangnan Province, and he wanted to see what the young man with his father's protection looked like. I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to see it.
However, he didn't see Ye Chengshu.
Only today did Zhuo Yi know that Ye Chengshu had already been sent by Ye Nanchuan to a northern province for comprehensive protection.
Oh yes, the villa where the basement where he was imprisoned was was newly built by Ye Nanchuan for his daughter. When his wife first suspected, he began to build the villa for his unborn daughter.
Zhuo Yi suddenly felt that it might not be love. But not love, what is it? Zhuo Yi still didn't know, he still couldn't figure it out.
Shaking his head, Zhuo Yi pulled back his reason, which had drifted into the distance, pulled the muscles of his face, raised his head, and smiled very palely, "Sorry, I was distracted." What did you just say? ”
Tang Di shook his head, "I didn't say anything." ”
They were still a little overwhelmed by surprise.
I really didn't expect that the person Zhuo Yi would trust turned out to be Ye Nanchuan.
There doesn't seem to be anything to do with him and Ye Nanchuan, right?!
Ye Nanchuan said very clearly on the phone, he let Zhuo Yi go, he pitied him and sympathized with him. But more than that, it is Ye Nanchuan's own inner struggle.
And this point may not be known to Zhuo Yi now. Strictly speaking, it is incomprehensible to Zhuoyi.
Being in the center of the whirlpool of officialdom, Ye Nanchuan's heart also endured a lot of things. This is nothing special, and everyone in officialdom and high positions is in the same state of mind.
For the sake of his own power and status, he stepped on the lives of others.
His own throne is made of the white bones of Sen Ran.
No one will be indifferent, Ye Nanchuan will not, and neither will Ye Chengshu.
It's just that people who can be in their position are more able to control their inner ...... Well, guilt!
But this sin, accumulated too much, will also become a kind of inner demon. Once something happens, this demon may be released. And I can't suppress it anymore.
Ye Nanchuan was in such a state at that time.
Because of Zhuo Lan, the betrayal given to him by his most beloved disciple, Ye Nanchuan began to examine his sins over the past few decades. In the final analysis, what is the difference between what Ye Nanchuan did and Zhuo Lan?
Similarly, they all relied on the blood and tears of others to pave the blossoms on their careers.
Zhuo Lan relied on the blood and tears of his own brother.
What Ye Nanchuan relied on was the blood and tears of strangers.
Come to think of it, there's only one difference.
But essentially, they're all vampires. He drank the blood of others to sustain himself.
Perhaps, it is no different.
These questions, once thought about, involve a lot of things.
How much Ye Nanchuan despised Zhuo Lan's behavior, how much he hated what he had done.
In that case, Ye Nanchuan letting Zhuo Yi go was really not a merciful move. He's just looking for a habitat for his conscience. Find a habitat that is not subject to the whipping of your inner conscience.
That's all.
Choosing to let go of Zhuo Yi is Ye Nanchuan's guilt for his past behavior, and it is also a manifestation of his abandonment of his ambitions.
No longer attacking, it's okay to leave Zhuo Yi behind.
Ye Nanchuan didn't want to think about these things anymore, many people just thought too much, so they were driven crazy by themselves. Ye Nanchuan was very smart, he chose not to think about it.
Since he thinks in his heart that what he has done in order to consolidate his rights is essentially no different from what Zhuo Lan did to Zhuo Yi. Then he'll give up. Give up consolidating your rights, give up expanding your territory, give up ...... own ambitions.
Sometimes, giving up is the easiest option. It is also a sign of cowardice.
But Ye Nanchuan's abandonment is by no means a cowardice.
The real cowardice is not daring to look directly at one's own darkness and blindly escaping.
Ye Nanchuan didn't.
It was because he looked directly into his own darkness and he was unwilling to escape that he gave up his ambitions.
To give up one's ambition is to repent of one's once dark past, and it is also to atonement for one's sins.
It is impossible for those who have been killed by him to be resurrected.
Giving up, then, the only thing he once pursued was the best repentance and apology for the souls of the dead at his hands.
If you can say that you can let go, you can let go of the supreme power, and you can repent of what you have done and the people you have killed. This is already a performance of a brave man.
Ye Nanchuan is not cowardly at all, on the contrary, he is very brave.
