Chenxing returned to being alone again.
Without any unnecessary goodbyes, she just left. She has been gone for many days, but Ye Lingquan still feels missed. Xie Zhe and Han Zhang didn't have much fondness for that woman. This is not because they have any bias. On the contrary, the judgments based on their experience in traveling around the world are quite credible.
Indeed, that woman is very dangerous - this judgment is not wrong. But to Miss Ye, who had received the favor, she was already a very kind person. In this chaotic and dangerous world, if you don't do evil, you are considered a good person. The standard cannot be set too high. Of course, in order to take care of Ling Huan's mood, they did not say anything more that they should not have said, but just kept a cautious attitude towards her without permission.
Of course, thanks are still due.
After such a long time, the two elders did not remember what they said to Chenxing. But in comparison, she is more like a gender-blurred, purely rational person. She didn't like too many compliments and unnecessary politeness, and she even made it clear that it was a good thing to get rid of this trouble. She still has many important things to do and doesn't have time to take care of others. Xie Zhe didn't like this tone, but he knew she was right. No one has the obligation to take on responsibilities that do not belong to them. In this regard, she is indeed a great benefactor.
As for what she's going to do...it's not completely secret.
Although Chenxing and Xie Zhehanzhang had never met, she knew something about them, at least Ling Huan had told her about them. Based on some recognition of her colleagues, she said something about what she was doing before leaving. One thing she wanted to figure out was the stance of people like Guixiangu. She clearly knew that Lord Yingyue was a dangerous existence, but why was she still in contact with her? Such a long-lived and wise woman, who is revered as a fairy, shouldn't be ignorant of this. She must have her own plan, but she still hired Chen Xing and even more people in the world to work for it.
What is this for?
When these doubts were raised, both Xie Zhe and Han Chang felt enlightened. After all, they were guided by the ghost fairy along the way. Even the reunion with Ye Lingquan was included in her hexagram calculations. How dare they raise doubts about this man? So at this time, Chenxing stopped talking. She already knew that there was no more meaning in exchanging information with these two people. They no longer have any intersection except that they are both investigating the matter of living corpses and puppets. Even in these two matters themselves, neither party showed much sincerity. The main reason is that Xie Zhe and Han Zhang don't know anything more... and they really can't come up with anything valuable.
They could have walked together, and Ling Huan would have been happy to do so, but Chenxing left so "ruthlessly". She must have her own plans, and no one else has the right to interfere. As a result, everything returned to its original appearance - Xie Zhe, Ling Huan and Han Shang. The three of them were still the same, as if nothing had changed.
Nothing has changed?
How can it be.
The joy of reunion was fleeting. When things return to their apparent "original" state, there is only "emptiness" filling their surroundings.
They would have had much to say. But there seems to be a lot of time and opportunities in the future, but the time of nostalgia given now is not enough. As a result, they had nothing to say for a while. Ling Huan wanted to talk about the sister he had lost and found again, the proud and powerful heroine who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, the mysterious and beautiful woman who had lost her memory; Xie Zhe and the others should tell them how they reunited with her. , how she made acquaintance with a foreign friend from the deep sea, how she met and parted with her shabby biological sister who was similar to her. There are more things that these people can't explain, but they can finally explain it clearly.
But now there is only silence.
Time is too short, there are too many things, and everyone has their own experiences and difficulties. If they were both children, maybe they could hold each other and cry together, then wipe away the tears and face a new day. But they are not anymore, they are adults and they have to deal with problems. Children can choose to escape after venting their emotions, but adults cannot, so even the stage of venting their emotions seems less necessary.
Looking back, the moment of reunion is still touching.
They need to regain that feeling - to save those who are separated again. The most practical question right now is where do they start? Ling Huan urgently needs to find his lost cousin. Now that she was with familiar friends, she no longer thought about going home. People are like this. When something is solved, it seems like the previous disaster was no big deal. Who says it's not? From the beginning to the end, her immature goal has never changed, which is to find Yin Huan and go home with her. But after experiencing this, her thoughts and behavior are no longer so immature.
Then there is...Han Chang's sister. It sounds like Han Chang is more pitiful, although sadness has different scales in different people and cannot be generalized like this. He originally wanted to find out the whereabouts of his brother, but now he has lost his sister again. He reflected more than once on whether this action was correct, and now his thoughts of denial were even more profound. He should have been more insistent and insisted not to let Wenying follow... Now, how should he communicate with himself, the elderly at home, and his parents' spirits in heaven? Who else can he deserve?
But self-blame is just an excuse to stay lazy. We can't go on like this, they know it better than anyone else. Get moving, get moving. At least in this way, no matter what the result is, you will not feel regret for your "inaction" - maybe the regret will be something else.
Where is Xie Zhe? Xie Zhe wants to carry out his mission that has never changed from beginning to end.
The so-called - save the common people.
It sounds so unreal, so ethereal, so bizarre that it makes you laugh. But it was true, as he moved forward, his mission became clearer and clearer. He didn't know what to do in the past, so he just took his mother's instructions with him when he set out. He even got this sword on the way. The goal now is clear. Although investigations into anomalies in the world are necessary, the most clear and obvious issue is the ten evils.
"Kill" is already dead.
That child has been transcended. Xie Zhe's role in it seems to be very important, but also seems to be insignificant. But he and Han Shang actually resisted this huge army - the army of the dead. Without Mutsuki-kun, they really don't know what they would do. But Mutsuki-kun's rebirth must also be reflected in the hexagram of Ghost Fairy Girl.
What's next? What to do next?
"You don't really want to kill them all, do you?" In the guest room, Han Chang raised the most important question, "Ten evils, ten evil angels... Regardless of who they are, we still haven't figured out who they are. Everyone is so difficult to deal with."
"No, wait! Do they really, really deserve to die compared to that?"
Ling Huan's words seemed a bit ridiculous, but Xie Zhe knew that the first thing she thought of was an important person. At least it once mattered.
Lian Hanshang also said this: "There must be other ways for them to obtain salvation."
These words really don't sound like they were spoken by a monster. But... maybe it fits his status as a member of the same species. But all three of them know that they were all living humans once, but now there is no longer any way to restore those injuries to the original state. The harm they caused, and the harm they received.
"I'm afraid it won't happen overnight if I want to make Miyin change her mind." Xie Zhe said seriously, "I don't even have the slightest doubt that this thing is impossible. When she was recognized as a monster by the demon Yama, this dangerous The identity will be implemented. At this point, the Six Paths of Impermanence will take action..."
"Can you stop them? I mean, don't let them while you can solve the problem..."
"Oh my god, little aunt," Han Shangyang said with a wry smile, "Don't worry about that girl named Xue. Think about the Wuyong family... They trapped you and took the blood extracted from you to the South Country. Deal with us. You don't know how disgusting his bastard words sound. At least this guy will show no mercy if he can kill someone."
Ling Huan was silent for a while and nodded slightly. She knew it in her heart, so she wouldn't object to anything.
"Today is not what it used to be. It is not safe for Ling Huan to follow us. The Nightmare Dog has disappeared - at least it seems so, but the Resentful Eclipse is still in Wuyonglan's hand. He scratched himself with that thing My legs, now all our movements can be controlled by him. In my opinion, it is better to let Hanshang take you back to your home."
"You want to drive me away?"
As soon as Ling Huan said these words, Han Sheng immediately tapped the table, killing any signs of the dispute. He said to Xie Zhe in a joking tone:
"Oh my God, you actually want me to send this little aunt away. You don't know how stubborn she is. I don't want to do this hard work. But don't worry, as long as you are with us, We won’t let you get hurt—of course not.”
Han Chang himself didn't know how much comfort this guarantee contained. When he said this, he was actually a little scared, but he was also surprisingly determined. He seemed to have made a secret promise, promising not to let some tragedy happen again. But on the other hand, he had some doubts. Are they really capable of protecting Miss Ye's safety? Even a girl like Wenying, who was good at witchcraft, left them. Everyone can talk about the situation, and at the moment I just told them not to quarrel.
But in the final analysis, even Xie Zhe felt that Wenying's departure was not his fault... Even if he told Miss Ye, she would not feel that way.
Life seems to never give them hope and peace for a moment.
