Chapter 11: The Game of Cause and Effect
At the same time, the muffled voice suddenly came from the TV:
"Zhang Yuan, you have always felt that you are a natural leader, whether at home, in the circle of friends, or in your career, you have always maintained self-centeredness, thinking that you can make the life of the people around you better by relying on your liliang. You feel confident that you will be sincerely thanked by everyone for this kind of dedication. They will thank you, even for everything you have done for them, and you will always insist that the people you value will never forget their roots.
You always fantasize in your heart that one day, you and your friends will be in danger together, and then you will be able to see the truth in the adversity and receive the reward for your dedication to them over the years. At the same time, they firmly believe that you are important in their hearts, and they will do everything in their power to help you, even lose your life.
Now that the crisis of your fantasy has come, and you thought that the most haode friend was right next to you, then now I want to ask you a question, are you sure that your self-righteous efforts have really paid off? Instead of sending you to a dead end with your own hands? β
The deep voice was gone, replaced by the fat man's glaring roar:
"We ...... Twenty years of acquaintance...... You and him...... But I've only known each other for seven months...... But you ......."
The thin man didn't wait for the fat man to finish this sentence, and then interrupted hoarsely:
"What's wrong with seven months? He understands me, he knows how to respect me, and he doesn't order me at will, we are equal! Do you know what equality is?
Since I was a child, you have always been that drinking face to me, I am your friend, your brother, not your dog, you really respect me from your heart!
We are no longer children, we are adults, and our hearts will become! Do you understand!! β
The fat man can no longer hear the thin man. Because just now he had swallowed Zuihou a breath. The thin man looked at the fat man who was staring at him, and his legs fell to the ground weakly.
Yes, he and his friend who had just known him for less than seven months killed his hair Xiao, the friend who had been in his way since he was a child.
It's just that his friend didn't know that although standing in front of him could shield him from the wind and rain, at the same time, it also completely blocked his way forward.
"Li Ergou, you have always felt that you are talented, just because of Zhang Yuan's existence. It obscured the light that you should have. You want to surpass him, but at the same time as this thought exists, you are always habitually timid.
Because Zhang Yuan is in front of you, no matter how difficult it is, he will be duty-bound. You are grateful to him and at the same time you are jealous of him, you are hating him, you are jealous that he can solve everything, you hate him for treating you like a waste.
He's not the object of your adoration, and he's not someone you can fall in love with. You're looking, looking for a friend who can really understand you and discover you.
And now you've found it, and he's secretly auctioning off shares in your name. On the grounds of defrauding you of embezzlement in the name of developing new projects, and creating for you to let Zhang Yuan know your ability, I admired the increasing sadness on Zhang Yuan's face. Zuihou used the excuse of self-help to see Zhang Yuan die tragically.
Well now. When you know this, I want to ask you a question. Just now, when you acquiesced in killing Zhang Yuan. Is there a moment when you ever recall your ups and downs for more than 20 years? Even if it's just a snippet of it. β
"Don't say it...... Say no more......"
The thin man clutched his head in pain, and the voice seemed to penetrate his heart and know everything about him. Every word was like a bombshell, leaving scorched marks on his hypocritical mind.
He felt that he was a brute, maybe not even a brute, and that he had killed his little hair for such a small thing. He is an ungrateful man who forgets old friends when he has them.
He's a white-eyed wolf, something inferior to pigs and dogs!
The black shirt had already opened the lock on the door, and kept shouting at the thin man, saying that what the voice said was false, and telling him not to believe it. But the thin man didn't seem to hear him at all, and still knelt there and muttered to himself.
"What are you still grinding, it's lying to you, how can it know what you think, hurry up and go with me, the time will come soon, if you don't leave, we will all die here!"
The thin man suddenly raised his head at this time, stood up with his seemingly weak body, and muttered to himself as he approached the black shirt:
"I've been thinking that I only embezzled some money, and he has no reason to sue me, and there is no reason to trust me. Only now do I understand that you are stealing the pillars and trying to bring down the company that we have worked so hard to run.
It's a fool of meΓ it's still ridiculous in my heart, he scolds him for being ungrateful, scolds him for being able to endure hardships together but can't enjoy happiness together, and scolds him for betraying him......
The thin man muttered, and without warning, he took out a dagger from his pocket, and without thinking that this was the event that had been secretly placed in his pocket, he roared and stabbed at the black shirt in front of him, intending to die with him.
He no longer had the courage to live, his hands were covered in blood, and his soul had long since rotted. Later, he will personally go down to confess to his brother.
Seeing that the thin man was desperate with him, the black shirt hurriedly dodged, and scolded fiercely in the process:
"You still don't believe that you are a waste, if Zhang Yuan has not been by your side to help you, the idiots who have been deceived by your two sentences can also make a fortune? If I say a few words of praise to you, you will be proud, Zhang Yuan pointed out that you are wrong, you feel that your self-esteem is hurt, who wants to be friends with someone like you, he deserves to die early!
I believed me when I said two words before, but now that voice has let out a few farts, and you believe it again, and you say how stupid you are, you are going to die stupidly. β
"I'm going to kill you!"
"Poof!"
Before the thin man's roar had died down, he felt a pain in his throat, and he touched it with his hand blankly, only to see blood on his hand. His body suddenly became very heavy, and his eyelids began to fall uncontrollably, and he finally fell to the ground in pain.
"I didn't mean to kill you, but you're hopeless."
After the black shirt finished speaking, he spat hard in the thin man's face.
The thin man lying on the ground desperately wanted to say sorry to the fat man, but Zuihou only let out a few "hmm" chokes.
There is less than a minute left.
The black shirt hurriedly opened the door, and then entered the cage where Xiao Mo was before. At this moment, Xiao Mo had long since disappeared, he came to the door and tried to open the door, but he was horrified to find that the door could not be opened.
On closer inspection, the lock on the door was still locked, as if it had never been opened. The black shirt was stunned, he clearly remembered that Xiao Mo had got the key, and he also clearly remembered that he had escaped from here.
Can ...... now weishenme will be like this.
"Qi Zhen, you think that you are full of scheming and can use anyone you want to use, you think that if you want to succeed in life, you must do whatever it takes to achieve your goals, because morality cannot be eaten, and the so-called kindness is rarely used even by children in this society.
You firmly believe that the wicked will be rewarded, and that the wicked can live longer and more nourishing than the good. You are never afraid of revenge, because only you can take revenge on others, so you have the courage to take advantage of the trust that others have in you, and wantonly spoil the feelings that you despise the most.
And now, when you look at this dead door that has been closed by despair, have you ever thought that the mere revenge of a stranger can lead you to a situation from which you will never recover?
So, after all that you've been through, I want to ask you a question, do you still insist on good retribution for evil?
At the end of this sentence, the black shirt widened in horror, because two people who should have died appeared strangely in front of him. It was the fat man and the thin man he had just killed, and they were looking at him with cold eyes and then cracking their mouths...... Cruel laughed.
Then he suddenly remembered what the voice had warned them at the beginning:
"You will have ten minutes to escape, and when the time limit is up, this place will be invaded by the undead."
"Noβ!"
In fact, there is not just one lock on the cage, but two, one open and one hidden. The open lock is the lock hanging on the two cage doors, and the hidden lock needs to open the open lock of both doors.
It wasn't until the black shirt opened the cage on his side that the door on his side was opened, and at that moment, he suddenly understood that this cage within a cage was a karmic trap at all.
Simple, but deadly.
If he had killed the three men with the killing machine in his hand in the first place, he would have been doomed to be unable to escape even if he later unlocked the door.
If the black shirt does not move the idea of killing the fat man, then the fat man will not die.
If the fat man did not die, the thin man would not easily listen to that voice, and would die with the black shirt.
If the thin man hadn't been killed by the Black Shirt, then he wouldn't have been completely enraged and would have thought of re-locking the door to get revenge on the Black Shirt.
But in the end, the result was still the same result, and all three of them in black shirts died.
And that voice, when he left, also left a passage:
"Xiao Mo, you have always been desperate for freedom, longing that you can not be bound by anything. You've searched for it, but you've never been able to find an answer that satisfies you. You don't even understand why you want to be free. So you've been understanding freedom in reverse, thinking that what's outside the cage is freedom.
And now, you've just escaped from a cage and regained your freedom.
So I want to ask you a question, do you insist that being outside the cage is freedom?
Not a larger, or never-ending cage. β
Xiao Mo felt that this passage might be telling him that there was no so-called freedom or so-called cage in the world. Because freedom is actually a shell that you can walk around the world at will, and as for the cage, it is just the heart that is contained in the shell. (To be continued......)
