Chapter 122: Ye Zhangqian's Speculation
[Thank you for your generous reward from 'Love Walking in the Breeze and Drizzle', and thank you to 'Ostrich to Hibernate' and 'Hallliana' for your precious monthly pass!]
"You're not kidding, are you?"
Lin Shu shook his head with a smile: "Of course it's not a joke, and is there any reason why you can't say this now?"
Ye Zhangqian smiled strangely: "No! Okay, the price you said must be decided after the general news of Zhilu Dao, you say, right?"
"Well, this news is just one sentence, if you don't give it to me, there's no way!"
"My credibility is that bad?"
"Also, the news is that the teacher has identified the genetic fragment of the mutation of the aquatic dark vanilla, and is now looking for the cause of the mutation. Is this news worth the price?"
Ye Zhangqian thought for a while, knocked on the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "It's definitely not worth it, this is just a progress indicator, and the significance of this progress indicator is not very big, it's almost enough to erase all the fourth-order demon cores!" ”
"Okay, do as you say, if the teacher finds the exact cause of the mutation, then is this news worth the price I just said?"
"That's okay, it's a phased achievement, and if we get it first, it will definitely have great value. ”
Lin Shu smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, I'll find time to chat with Sister Ye when I go back, and now I'll go first." ”
Ye Zhangqian looked at Lin Shu strangely: "Where are you going?" It's night now, honestly stay here with me again."
Speaking of this, Ye Zhangqian was embarrassed, and the word overnight couldn't be said anyway, if she deliberately created an ambiguous atmosphere before, now this is completely unintentional.
Lin Shuhao smiled indifferently: "I'm afraid of being seen by others, and I think I'm already part of your business alliance, and when the time comes, people will join forces to deal with you, don't blame me." ”
Ye Zhangqian smiled dryly: "I said it, our Ye family doesn't get involved in this matter, so." Even if I'm with you. can only be regarded as neutral, at least Mr. Li is neutral, and the contradictions between you and Kong Zhexu are well known, so as a neutral Ye family, it is a normal means of self-preservation to get closer to you. ”
Lin Shu frowned: "It's so complicated!"
This sentence pointed to Ye Zhangqian's weakness, Ye Zhangqian looked up at the red moonlight projected through the gaps in the leaves, and her mood suddenly became a little lonely and sad. Is this complex, somewhat frightening, desperate, and breathless life the totality of one's past, present, and future?
If that's the case, it's really sad!
"I don't want to live this complicated life, but I have to live it, if I can't become the Ye family's outstanding next generation leader. Then all the people in my family will be marginalized, slowly excluded from the core of the Ye family, manipulated and manipulated by the superiors, compared with the current complicated life, that kind of life may be even more dislikeable, right?"
Ye Zhangqian seemed to be saying to Lin Shu, and seemed to be explaining to himself, Lin Shu curled the corners of his mouth and did not make a sound. Everyone has their own problems. The poor are troubled by money, and the rich are troubled by fear. The weak are troubled by powerlessness, the strong are troubled by heavy responsibilities, those who do not want to have, those who have are afraid of losing, far away from the fear of loneliness, close to fear of betrayal, no one can be an exception, people ultimately need to surpass is definitely not your enemy or your friend, what you need to surpass is always yourself, and in this process, no one can help you, only you can help you, this is the broad sense of Taoism.
Lin Shu didn't feel sympathy or pity, but just a faint emotion, and then, Lin Shu turned his attention to the neutrality that Ye Zhangqian said, especially the question of whether this neutral statement was true or false.
According to Ye Zhangqian's statement, the Ye family doesn't want to get involved in this completely unprofitable matter, so the official represented by Kong Zhexu and the Tang Dynasty Shennong Agriculture that Ye Zhangqian refers to are the recipients of benefits, and the Warrior Guild may have received employment fees to do some things, such as Lao Jiang! As for the Yang family, it seems to be a victim.
It's just that this is just what Ye Zhangqian's family said, only if it is confirmed that the Ye family is indeed neutral, the credibility of all these statements will be improved, because if the Ye family is neutral, there is no reason to deceive Lin Shu, after all, Lin Shu has such a great god as Li Jinglong, and this deception has shown that Lin Shu, who is not interested in this matter, has no benefit at all, on the contrary, if the scam is exposed, the Ye family will be completely stinky in Li Jinglong's eyes.
Ye Zhangqian retracted his gaze and saw that Lin Shu seemed to be a little distracted, his emotional words didn't seem to resonate or even pay attention to Lin Shu at all, and he didn't even have a little cheap sympathy, Ye Zhangqian couldn't help but feel like he was completely ignored and wasted his expression, and couldn't help but feel a faint resentment.
Lin Shu glanced at Ye Zhangqian in surprise, it turned out that she would also be as awkward as an ordinary girl! Originally, I thought she was a mature and cunning beautiful snake, but now it seems that she is just an ordinary woman who is smart but has a somewhat distorted outlook.
"Isn't it boring?"
"What?"
"What I complained about just now, isn't it boring?" Ye Zhangqian's eyes were smiling, but they always gave people a feeling of coolness, and Lin Shu was a little funny.
"No, everyone has a hurdle that confuses them and can't get over it with all their might, and then has to sigh on this side of the hurdle, some people just give up, some people are unwilling, so they can spend a lifetime to fight against it, struggling between helplessness and unwillingness, everyone is the same, and you are not the only one, so there is nothing strange, but it is not boring. ”
Ye Zhangqian looked at Lin Shu in some surprise again, Lin Shu's expression was flat, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, Ye Zhangqian was suddenly, or this was indeed what Lin Shu heard from someone's mouth, he didn't have a deep understanding of it, so he could say this heavy and unbearable topic so lightly.
"So what should I do? Unwilling and helpless, forever struggling?"
"Hehe, this question doesn't need to be answered, human life is a struggle between life and death, so this is the norm, why should it be changed? How can it be changed? If you want to change, first detach life and death. ”
Ye Zhangqian became more and more convinced that Lin Shu must have a very powerful master, and this kind of words were definitely not something that could come out of the mouth of a child under the age of nineteen. It's definitely a retelling of someone's statement. However, this person's statement is really open-minded, if you have such a mentality, maybe you can stand on a higher position and overlook this world.
"Makes sense, you came up with it yourself?"
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
Ye Zhangqian smiled and blinked, shook his head and said, "There's nothing wrong."
It's just that the skin is too thick! This sentence is the second half of the sentence that Ye Zhangqian did not say.
"I thought about it. Actually, you still have a good interest in this matter. ”
Lin Shu quickly changed the topic, and Ye Zhangqian glanced at Lin Shu meaningfully and said, "Aren't you not interested in this matter?" and it seems that you don't believe me at all. ”
"That's the key, I'm not interested in that matter, but I care a lot about whether Sister Ye is reliable or not. ”
"What are you for?" Ye Zhangqian looked at Lin Shu with burning eyes.
"I didn't bother about anything, shouldn't I care? A person who knows me well, I call you Sister Ye in my mouth. Isn't it very uncomfortable to be wary of you in my heart? In this case, of course I am more willing to establish a more trusting relationship with Sister Ye, and also make my voice of Sister Ye more real, is there anything wrong with this?"
Lin Shu's words made Ye Zhangqian's heart flood with a complicated feeling, this kind of feeling is strange and familiar, that kind of long-lost, simple and trusting relationship between people. It's long gone from her.
"Do you really think so?"
"You're weird. Isn't that what we should think of as such, and isn't it true that everyone should imagine others as enemies?"
"But in fact. Aren't people enemies?"
"Well, this competitive relationship can't be regarded as an enemy, there is also a relationship of mutual assistance, as well as relatives, as well as friends, lovers, etc., these are not enemy relationships, the most indifferent between people, there is also a relationship called strangers, enemies, is the most difficult choice. ”
"Well, you're right, it's me who is weird, because I'm always worried that I'm being calculated by others, and I have to protect myself all the time, which is insecure. ”
"This is very ordinary, then, this matter is good for the Ye family, right?"
"No, that kind of benefit is the benefit of killing chickens and taking eggs, the outbreak of the war between humans and monsters, it seems that there is a benefit of increasing the sales of goods for a period of time, but in the long run, the benefits here in the future will be Shennong agriculture, so it will be unfavorable to the Ye family for a long time, but the relationship involved is too complicated, so our Ye family doesn't want to get involved, that's it. ”
"So, you already know about this?"
"Be aware of it. ”
"Understood, the movements in the village some time ago were actually tossing this matter, right?"
"You're talking about someone using your way, hee-hee, yes. ”
"I really called you Sister Ye for nothing, and I didn't remind me, I almost hung up!"
"You wronged me, I obviously reminded you, tell you to be careful of Kong Zhexu, you won't think about it yourself? But you are so capable, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to hang up, right?"
Lin Shu couldn't refute it, speaking of which, she did remind herself.
"So why have you changed your attitude now?"
"It's not you who made it, you publicly reported the matter of the shadow beast, and was immediately caught by the Yang family and then used the topic to play, I had to come in order to clear myself, I'm afraid others are also thinking about it, this thing is not on the table because you are a student of Teacher Li, otherwise I am afraid you would have been accidental!"
Lin Shu grinned, maybe, of course, maybe Lin Shu had already slipped away, and then staged a good show of hunting and counter-hunting in the forest, because Lin Shu still had Ao Yun's secret weapon. (To be continued.) )
