Chapter 469: Vengeful Heart
I looked at Merlin in front of me, who had turned to ashes, and the clothes he was wearing were scattered on the ground because they had lost their body support.
Looking at the scene in front of me, I vaguely felt a sense of déjà vu in my mind, as if I had experienced a similar scene before. The same is sacrificed for others, and the same body is decayed into ashes......
"Yin Li, are you like this too?" I couldn't help but blurt out. Thinking of Yin Li, who once led me into this series of events, could it be that he also experienced the same psychological torture as Merlin, and was he forced to involve me in this series of terrible events?
Now that he's dead, I can't prove all of this but in my heart. Resentment, remorse, grief...... All kinds of emotions were entangled in my heart, and tears unconsciously oozed from the corners of my eyes and slowly dripped down.
Although I was still within the influence of the Requiem Stone at this time, the inexplicable negativity in my heart could not be dissipated no matter what.
At this moment, I overheard the shouts of Hu Fang and the Dead Apostles not far from the house, accompanied by the sound of Moyun looking for Merlin.
"Shen Xu! Where are you?! ”
"Merlin ......"
When I heard the sound, I took my mind and picked up the requiem stone that had fallen to the side, intending to put it back in its place. At this time, the Requiem Stone had gradually faded from crimson to pink due to the depletion of its power, or for some reason, and I could clearly feel that its effect on restoring my body was also waning.
At this moment, my body had recovered quite a bit, and by the time I put the Requiem Stone back into the pillar, the power in it had completely dissipated, turning to a pure white color like snow.
I breathed a sigh of relief when I looked at the requiem stone that was shining white again, and then I turned around and sorted out Merlin's clothes on the ground, and at the same time raised my voice and shouted outside the house, "Hu Fang, Dead Apostle, I'm here!" ”
As I shouted, a rush of footsteps came from outside the house, and Hu Fang, Li Zhisheng, the Dead Apostles, and Mo Yun who followed closely behind rushed into the house.
Looking at the situation in front of them, Li Zhisheng and the others seemed a little confused, and Mo Yun seemed to know something, looking at the ashes that Mo Lin turned into in front of me, he was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came back to his senses.
She quickly rushed to Merlin's ashes, knelt down with a "poof", looked at me with a stunned expression, and asked, "This, this is Merlin, right?" ”
I nodded.
"I knew that, I knew he was going to do it...... Just now, just now, I caught up with him and planned to treat his wounds, but he told me these things in his own words...... I thought there must be a better way, so I tried to stop him, but he knocked me unconscious...... I should have guessed, I ......"
Mo Yun couldn't stop crying as he spoke, and his body fell on top of Merlin's ashes, and a puff of smoke and dust was raised in an instant.
"This is Merlin's clothes......" Looking at the painful ink cloud, I put the clothes I had just sorted out in front of her eyes, and at the same time silently got up and walked past her.
When I came to the door, I saw that Li Zhisheng and the Dead Apostles were carrying some nutritional supplements in their hands, and it seemed that as Hu Fang said, they had indeed gone to buy supplements for me.
Li Zhisheng saw that my face was gloomy, he looked at Mo Yun who was still crying behind me, looked me up and down again, and said suspiciously: "It's Mo Lin, he helped you recover your body, right?" ”
After hearing this, Hu Fang also looked a little incredulous, she grabbed my arm, carefully squeezed it with her hand, and asked, "Does it still hurt?" ”
I didn't answer their questions, I just took the tonic from the Dead Apostle and Li Zhisheng, said thank you, and walked out of the room alone without looking back.
At this moment, I made up my mind that I would also eradicate the Yang Shi no matter what, if it weren't for them, there would not have been such a series of things, and so many people would not have died because of it. Although I can't escape the blame for this, after all, this incident started because of me, so I must put an end to this matter with my own hands.
Thinking about it, I went back to my room alone, put down the tonic in my hand, and checked the imprint on my arm at the same time. At this point, I noticed that the imprint on my hand had completely stopped growing.
"It seems that merging the two into one is really the only way to stop the growth of the imprint, but if that is the case, I should now have the same lifespan as Yin Li and the grocery store owner I met before, with only three years left. Anyway, if you sit back and wait for death, you can only wait for death, so it's better to fight to the death with that beast in the second night! ”
Thinking about it, I looked at the nine-star map on my chest again, at this time the nine-star map still had three stars left, which means that there are still two ghost mounds to be destroyed, but now there is no extra time for me to look for it again, if I let Erye act recklessly, it will inevitably bring a catastrophe to the world.
While thinking to himself, the Dead Apostle and Hu Fang followed in from outside the house, and the Dead Apostle looked at me sitting on the stone bench and was examining his body, and said, "Now that your body has recovered, what are your plans for next?" ”
I glanced up at him, and said with murderous intent in my eyes: "Kill the second night and eradicate the Yangshi." ”
"How sure are you that you can defeat them?"
"I don't know...... But even if there is only a glimmer of opportunity, I will go, even if I die, I will avenge Yaolong, my parents, Moshu's predecessors and these people who killed the Tao! ”
Hearing my words, the Dead Apostle looked worried: "Shen Xu, this is not like you, even if you were a little reckless in the past, but you will not act completely unplanned like now, you let hatred dominate your mind like this, it will only cost you your life in vain." Have you forgotten what the Moshu seniors said to you when we left Yangshi?! Don't be dominated by hatred! ”
Listening to the Dead Apostle's indignant words, I asked him, "Dead Apostle, I ask you, do you know what is good and what is evil?" ”
The Dead Apostle was a little puzzled when he saw me asking this question without beginning or end, but he still thought for a while and replied, "To be good is to be kind and to be good at ministering to others, and to save others in times of crisis." Evil is burning, killing, snatching, raping, plundering, and harming the interests and lives of others. ”
"Then let me ask you, if you kill another person in order to save one, do you think you are good or evil?"
"To the rescued, I am good. To the slain, I am evil. ”
After hearing this, I smiled, "Then now I'm going to do something that is good for you, for those I don't know." It's not that I don't have a plan for this matter, but there is no room for planning, and if I let the behavior of Yang Shi and Erye go any longer, it will only make more people die tragically......"
With that, I got up and prepared to leave the room, and went to the location of the Yoshi.
Just when I was passing by Hu Fang's Dead Apostle, the Dead Apostle's words made me stop, and he said lightly: "Don't you want to know the secret of the Divine Mystery Sutra: Nine Star Life and Death Map?" Perhaps there is a key to success hidden here......"
