Chapter 53: Fate
"The Instrument of Sin ......"
Of course, the name heard from Chang'e's mouth made Wu also feel extremely unfamiliar:
"Doesn't that sound like a good thing?"
"In theory, it's not really a good thing."
Chang'e didn't deliberately hide anything, but told Wu Ye the truth bluntly:
"The Seven Instruments of Deadly Sins represent the seven sins of this world, arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, **, and gluttony."
As she spoke, she shook the spoon in her hand and continued:
"This is one of the seven deadly sins, the 'Sin of Greed', originally they each had their own name, but knowing that those things are useless to you, you just need to understand what it means."
"Greedy?"
Wu also smashed his mouth, his expression was a little weird:
"Hey, although I'm the same as Reimu, I do have a soft spot for race money, but I don't need someone to put such a big hat on my head, right?"
Komachi said that this was given to her by Shijiyinghime, and asked her to hand it over to a suitable person, if this is the weapon of greed that Chang'e said, then wouldn't it mean that he is......
"I don't deny that the excessive desire for money is also a manifestation of greed, but your understanding is also too superficial."
Regarding Wu Ye's question about trying to dodge, Chang'e gave a completely unexpected answer:
"Of the seven sins, arrogance is the first sin, but greed is the first felony."
Chang'e's plain gaze fell on Wu Ye, which made Wu Ye intuitively feel that what was standing in front of him was not a person but a mirror, and while talking, he always saw his own figure.
Not caring about the unnaturalness that Wu Ye showed, Chang'e continued to herself:
"The most intuitive manifestation of greed is the uncontrollable desire, what is obtained, what is not obtained, and the value on both sides of the scale is tampered with at will, which is where the crime of greed is cruel."
"But, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me?"
"Is that really the case?"
Chang'e asked rhetorically, but she didn't give Wu Ye a chance to answer, she directly handed the spoon back to Wu Ye's hand, she wrapped her hands around Wu Ye's hands, and held the greedy weapon of sin.
Her eyes drooped like a curtain of night, obscuring all the colors of the sun, and her thin lips spat out the words as if chanting:
"One day all the weapons of the Great Sin will return to you, this time you must remember that you must not lose them again."
"Huh, what does that mean......"
Chang'e's mutant performance caught Wu Ye off guard, and there seemed to be too many details hidden in his words just now that he couldn't ignore.
"Oh, by the way, I seem to be a god too, how about I help you calculate your fate?"
“......”
All the depth and gloom vanished, and the childlike happiness of Chang'e, who was smiling, was like a typhoon, disrupting the previous atmosphere.
Chang'e's lame way of changing the topic made Wu Ye embarrassed, but he had to admit that although the other party's approach was unreliable, it was very effective.
The great sage of the Moon City seems to have a natural charm that makes it impossible to resist her decisions, as if there is an invisible force at work that subtly changes the minds of others.
"Hmm-it looks a little outdated to look at palmistry, let me look at the face."
The playful clouds lingered, and Chang'e seemed to have returned to the unserious appearance when they first met:
"You've had a lot of luck lately, haven't you?"
“..... No, my luck wasn't bad at all, unluckily. ”
Knowing that Chang'e didn't plan to continue talking about the topic just now, Wu Ye had no choice but to continue to play fortune-telling games with the other party.
As for why he did it? The reason he didn't know himself, the body had already started to react before the brain could think.
Maybe there's really an invisible force at work.
"Well, your popularity seems to be good lately? I've met a lot of new friends, have you achieved the achievement of 'making 100 friends'? ”
It seems that this kind of thing is really not just talking, and Wu also has 10,000 reasons to believe that Chang'e is definitely from an abandoned house like Kaguya.
"It's not there, recently I just think that I may have done too much evil in my last life, and I owe it, and what kind of guys I met are ......"
"That's nice, it sounds interesting."
"Are you really listening to what I'm saying?"
Wu also broke down a little.
"Okay,Go on.,Next is the favorability of the opposite sex.,Hmm-it seems to be quite vigorous.,Recently, a sister paper has been cooking for you? Or is it a love bento? ”
"Well, this one is really there, not only did I cook and sent me to Santu River for a day."
"Very well, then that's the summary."
"Huh...... Belch?! ”
In good conscience, although Chang'e seems to be incompatible with Wu Ye in personality, it is undeniable that she is the most beautiful of all the girls Wu Ye has seen.
This kind of beauty is not just about appearance, but about conceptual gaps, and there is a sense of combining the advantages of the world.
So the moment Chang'e reached out to hug him, his brain inevitably fell into a brief blank.
"Chang, Miss Chang'e, ...... are you?!"
Wu was also a little speechless.
The girl's fragrance left a mark on his body, and the taste of Ruan Xiang Ruyu in his arms was not something that a little magician like Wu Ye, who had been single for seventeen years, could bear.
His brain told him that he should ask the two of them separately at this time, but the nerves in his body seemed to be hypnotized, completely uncontrolled.
Maintaining a rigid and stiff posture and being hugged tightly by Chang'e, Wu didn't know what to say, and his tongue seemed to be knotted after calling out the other party's name.
Just when he was about to be overwhelmed by this embarrassment, Chang'e finally spoke.
The words are not like jokes, there is no heaviness, only one value and three worries.
"Listen carefully, you must not forget a word of my next words."
Pressing Wu Ye's head on his shoulder, Chang'e pressed close to his ear and said word by word:
"Never trust yourself."
"Ah......?"
"All the decisions you make in accordance with your heart are wrong, so never trust yourself, no matter what happens, just act in the opposite direction of what you think."
Chang'e's words seemed to be encouraging, but they seemed to be diametrically opposed to ordinary encouragement, at least Wu Ye had never heard such words as "never believe in yourself".
"I'm not joking, I want to escape from this hopeless situation, I can only do this, this is fate, the glittering teenage time is coming to an end, so at least, don't cry when you wake up."
Leaning over to say these words in her ear, Chang'e gently let go of Wu Ye, looking at the other party's dazed and stunned expression, she stretched out her hand and smoothed the other party's slightly frowning brow:
"Hurry up and get stronger, Wu Ye, time is running out."
"Why ......"
Takeya's eyes were full of surprise, he had never told the other party his name, why would she know.....
"You, ...... the hell"
Before he finished speaking, Wu Ye's consciousness had begun to fade away rapidly, he understood that this was the prelude to waking up from a dream, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab the figure of the white snow in front of him, but the reality made him watch the other party disappear into a distant dream.
In the end, I could only helplessly look at her who was waving goodbye, and listened to her leave a profound greeting at the end of her consciousness-
"This is definitely not a farewell, goodbye at the end of the spiral, Adam of this age."
