"I still think this bitch has bad intentions."
Zhong Kui muttered.
Now that Guanyin alone has shocked the crowd of ghosts, there is no need for him to come on stage. He is just watching Guanyin's back from a distance vigilantly.
The not-so-smart man's head kept analyzing the possible traps involved.
finally...
The ghosts retreated.
Guanyin turned around and looked at the city wall behind him in a daze, especially the mottled bloodstains on the wall and the investigators who were seriously injured but refused to retreat.
"Maybe...this world is worth it."
At a certain moment, she seemed to let go of her worries, smiled indifferently, and turned around to leave.
…
"Guanyin?"
Wang Ye paused and looked at the woman in front of him with caution.
Why would an existence that even Maitreya be afraid of find him?
Could it be because...he punched her teeth?
"Amitabha."
Guanyin stood not far outside Shangjing City, looking at Wang Ye and chanting the Buddha's name softly.
"Can we talk?"
She looked at Wang Ye with soft eyes without any hostility.
Wang Ye nodded and waved his hand calmly. The relics on his wrists emitted a faint light, and golden lotuses rose out of thin air and turned into seats.
Guanyin smiled and sat down.
"The cooperation has ended, why did you come to me?"
Wang Ye was a little confused.
Logically speaking, she is more hostile to Maitreya than herself.
Guanyin was in a trance, looking at the dark sky. After a long time, she murmured, "Do you know why I joined Lingshan?"
? ? ?
Wang Ye was a little dazed. He always felt that Guanyin's current state was not right. Although his eyes were soft and had a dusty aura, his emotions were very turbulent, and his state of mind seemed to be in some kind of dilemma.
"Why?"
Wang Ye sat down calmly and asked.
"Speaking of which... I should be considered... born with wisdom, and so are my parents."
"You may not know that in the years when I was born, the people were ignorant and confused. They only knew how to worship God and were ignorant."
"Those of us who are born with aura, or have souls that are not damaged, are born with wisdom."
Guanyin's voice was very soft and she was lost in memories.
"At that time, there was a girl named A Nian, who was also born with wisdom. She had been revealing the truth to everyone in the city, a bloody and cruel truth."
"My parents were very excited and wanted to follow Anian, but unfortunately... I was born."
"They have taken it into consideration and often say that this is their lifelong regret."
"Although my parents did not follow Anian, they still often tell people around them not to blindly believe in Buddhism. We can grow our own food. Without God, we can still live a high life."
"But the funny thing is...these stupid mortals regard us as aliens."
Guanyin smiled mockingly to herself: "Everyone shouts and beats us, just like a rat crossing the street. Even so, at least we can survive. Although our parents are disappointed, they have motivation and hope."
"until..."
"We found people with the same wisdom. They are among ordinary people, making sarcastic remarks, and even encouraging people to beat us to death..."
"Do you know the despair at that moment?"
"The common people are stupid and do not understand gods, Buddhas, and their own bodies. We can understand this."
"But these people with wisdom are still like this, working hard for gods and Buddhas..."
"Until a group of them finally gathered together and tied my parents to the fire rack. If I hadn't gone out that day to enlighten the people in the next village, maybe... there would be no Guanyin in the world."
As if recalling that scene, Guanyin's eyes flashed with fear, and her body trembled slightly. At this moment, she was not the Bodhisattva of Lingshan, but a helpless girl.
"I'm scared, very scared."
"I witnessed with my own eyes that five wise men burned my parents to death. Their words were like knives, so piercing..."
"I was so lost that I didn't even know if there was any point in what we were doing."
"Is it worth it?"
"Can this world really be saved?"
"I don't hate those stupid people. They have defective souls and follow what others say. But those with wisdom... they clearly know that everything A Nian said is true."
"But they don't dare to resist, and they even think that our resistance is powerless and will bring disaster."
"In the final analysis, it's just the ugliness of human nature. We are like a mirror. As long as we are alive, we can reflect their cowardice and incompetence..."
"So...maybe more, it's better to be angry."
"At midnight, the evening wind blew his doors and windows. Have you ever remembered those words that turned into sharp edges, that dark and bloody fire..."
A tear fell from the corner of Guanyin's eye, but she didn't notice it. Her emotions fluctuated and her eyes gradually turned red.
"I hate it, and I even think it's unfair."
"how so?"
"Since the world is already so dark, why bother to save it?"
"I left. I tried every means to join Lingshan. Step by step... I climbed to the top of Lingshan, eliminated dissidents, and slaughtered all living beings."
"Including those five people with wisdom roots back then."
"Haha, there are only dozens of followers around Anian, but I found that there are hundreds of people with wisdom in this world. Isn't it ridiculous?"
"Even at one time, in my eyes, A-Nian was like a stupid clown. She could obviously sit on a high throne, but just like me, she ignored the common people."
Guanyin suddenly laughed.
"You don't understand how much control the Buddha has over Lingshan."
"Except for Maitreya, I have almost no rivals, except Buddha."
"Until...that war, I felt that the opportunity had come. I faked my death and planned for thousands of years. In the end, the so-called Leiyin Temple was just a failure..."
"It turns out that the only one who is really stupid is myself."
"Just yesterday, I was sitting in Leiyin Temple, and all I could think about were those people who died in my hands. They were desperate, roaring, unwilling, and...fearful."
"I'm scared..."
"Unknowingly, I became the person I hated most when I was young."
"This world shouldn't be like this."
"The Buddha said, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately."
"I don't agree with it, and I don't even think that at that moment, if I repent, I can wash away my sins."
"It can only be said that trying to save some people out of frustration is not even considered as repaying debts, and is not qualified."
"These...I understand."
Wang Ye was silent after listening to Guanyin's words.
I do not know what to say.
Forgive Guanyin?
For whom to forgive, those who died?
What qualifications does Wang Ye have to forgive and speak on their behalf?
In other words, Guanyin itself is not ready to be forgiven.
As she said...
All this is not about paying off a debt...
