The huge primary and secondary fallen demons are still wreaking wanton destruction, knocking down buildings and trampling on lives;
The exhausted ordinary people fled in despair and panic, crying, or completely collapsed after a certain critical point and joined the camp of the fallen;
The Confucian-clad Meng Tong and Tong Sheng of the Tianli Council fought hard, bringing a pitiful glimmer of hope and a way out to the surroundings.
There was blood and flames everywhere, the red was dazzling, and the red was hot and steaming. In this scene that was like an apocalyptic hell, Chrollo walked slowly, ignoring the noise around him, and slowly turned the pages in his hands. On the page of the book, a clear and mellow voice as rich as a cello recited the quotations of Cheng Zhu Erzi?
"The Ronin Begins with Douluo"
"What is given by Heaven is destiny, and what is received by things is called nature. The principle is that it is given by Heaven to all things, so it is called destiny; what people are endowed by Heaven is called, so it is called nature. .”
"Human nature is all good. Even though Jie and Zhou were extremely evil, they still knew that this was evil."
“Being in the midst of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy without expressing them, that is, being “quiet and motionless.”
The comfortable and leisurely posture is like a Confucian student walking leisurely in his backyard, savoring the classics of sages.
At least the ordinary people and members of the Celestial Council who passed by couldn't help but give a thumbs up secretly and praised in their hearts. They are indeed worthy of being a great Confucian of the Celestial Council. They are so full of Confucian style that they can remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses in front of them! It seemed that they were not calm, but soon, everyone discovered that they could also be calm together.
As the words echoed across the sky and the earth, the actions of the fallen demons suddenly became sluggish, as if they were insects struggling in sticky glue. Every step was difficult, losing their minds and leaving only their instincts to fall. The face filled with demonic desire also gradually showed a look of confusion, as if he was introspecting his desires and questioning his heart.
And when the four words "silent and motionless" fell, with Chrollo as the center of the circle, all the fallen demons within a kilometer around them were completely frozen as if they had been cast a immobilization spell.
Then, a large amount of Demonic Factor particles were extracted from the bodies of the Demonic Ones and dissipated into the air. After a brief fluctuation in the value of the Demonic Factor particles, there was no subsequent fall of the Demonic Ones. , and the concentration index of fallen demons in the areas that attracted Tianliyi also dropped by several percentage points.
After seeing this scene, many people and members of the Heavenly Council cheered. Of course, no one rushed to express inappropriate gratitude or worship to Chrollo at this time. Instead, after the joy, they took advantage of the opportunity. The possessed ones were unable to move and continued to run for their lives quickly.
Pariston looked at the large number of fallen demons who seemed to be bound by invisible chains and were unable to struggle. With the satisfaction of having decrypted the code, he smiled at Chrollo with interest.
"Chrollo-kun, you won't disappoint anyone. What is the essence of this ability? What is the principle? The spirit of speech, what is said is followed by the law?"
Chrollo turned a deaf ear and ignored it. Without even looking at Pariston, he lightly turned over another page with his fingertips and continued to recite unhurriedly.
"Heaven and earth create a generation of people and are self-sufficient for a lifetime of things."
"Therefore, life is considered an illusion. Why not give life and death to other things? Since this is the case, why is it an illusion?"
"It is also said that the Tao has neither truth nor falsehood. It is said that there is neither truth nor falsehood, but there is nothing in either."
In the midst of the chanting, the fallen demons who were motionless suddenly screamed, but soon, the screams turned into long gasps and murmurs like sighs, as if they were glad to suddenly wake up from a nightmare. , the fallen demons all showed dreamlike expressions as if they were finally freed. Their huge bodies gradually became transparent, slowly disintegrating, leaving only a barely visible thin shadow, and then completely dissolved from the air. Clean, no more existence.
Cellululu opened her mouth slightly in surprise, and was dumbfounded. While talking and laughing, the sentence "The rafts and oars were turned into ashes" came out of her mind. Of course, this sentence is not a metaphor, but a complete description. Complete realistic description.
Chrollo's skills are comparable to Shuiqin's purification. As expected of Chrollo, no matter which world he goes to, he is a great person that people can only look up to at the altar.
Seeing that most of the fallen demons were wiped out, everyone who had not yet evacuated in time could not suppress the joy of surviving the disaster in their hearts, and shouted out one after another.
"That's great. A great scholar deserves to be a great scholar. This is just a matter of chatting and laughing, and the oars and oars are being destroyed by ashes." This is a person who holds the same idea as Cellululu.
"Today I can admire the great Confucianism. It is truly a worthwhile life, and I will die with no regrets." An old man said with tears streaming down his face.
"Let's go quickly, don't waste the time that Da Ru bought for us." There were some who were sober, grateful but not forgetting to remind them.
Chrollo faced the admiring and grateful eyes of the people around him, but he didn't ignore it like he did to Pariston. Even though he couldn't distract himself from saying anything else, he smiled and nodded slightly at everyone, and continued to chant, Marching through the ruins, bringing more people to life.
Wherever Chrollo went, everyone was impressed by his gentle manners, jade-like demeanor, and powerful abilities. So, after going out, after publicizing the achievements of the born saint, he also The magnificence of Chrollo, the great scholar, began to spread.
Cellululu was also quite surprised that Chrollo would still talk to others. She always thought it was weird, but it could relieve stress and help others, so naturally it was good. She and Chrollo It's a perfect combination. Although occasionally after hearing the praises of the scholar's demeanor around him, when I look at Chrollo again, I always feel that this description is actually inappropriate.
For Cellululu, compared to the so-called Confucian style. At this time, Chrollo is actually more like a magic stick.
The pair of eyes as deep as obsidian were half-curved and slightly narrowed as if they couldn't bear to see the suffering of all living beings. The white and slender fingertips turned the pages of the book rhythmically like playing notes, and occasionally raised their eyes slightly casually, When he smiled warmly, he also carried a kind of holy light that seemed to pity the world. He recited word for word in a neutral and peaceful manner as if he was extremely pious, as if he was guiding the lost lambs around him.
I have to say that Chrollo's look like this is really confusing, but after seeing the reverse cross on his forehead and looking at the ashes caused by Cheng Zhuliu, it turns out that this is simply a huge thing. It's ironic, although, as far as the conclusion is concerned, in fact, he did give guidance to those who fell into the devil - a guide to heaven.
With a snap, the pages of the book were closed, and Chrollo's mellow voice, which seemed to have its own divinity, suddenly sounded a little playful in Cellululu's ears.
"Celulu, watch the road where you step, don't just look at me, although I know that I am very charming and can keep your eyes on me."
Well? Cellululu was a little confused for a moment. After a moment of reaction, she realized what Chrollo had said. Then, she kept moving mechanically, with a steady rhythm of mechanically destroying the fallen. At this time, it was because of this sudden thought. Her body became unstable. As a result, Cellululu was so embarrassed that she actually tripped and fell.
Of course, it was impossible to fall. Chrollo saved the beauty in time. He hugged Celluloid and looked helpless as he had expected it.
"Look, I'll just tell you."
Cellululu thanked her awkwardly and stood up. She felt that she couldn't even lift her head. She felt that her resistance to Chrollo was really weak. Time and time again, she was fascinated by Chrollo. Cellululu He lowered his head and covered his face, reflecting secretly.
Chrollo didn't continue teasing Cellululu, he just stopped when it was appropriate? It was for a thin-skinned person like Cellulu.
Cellululu quickly calmed down, remembering the sentences Chrollo recited just now?, and then thinking about the effect, she suddenly realized the truth.
"I finally understand what you said before, 'the surface is yes, the core is not'. What do you mean? You are completely misinterpreting and applying Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism according to the literal meaning."
Chrollo smiled and said nothing. Who would really understand this? What kind of nonsense is Cheng Zhu's theory? Pariston's guess was right. The essence of this desire is to speak freely, but it only requires a layer of knowledge. This world is coated with the language that is regarded as the standard truth, so that it can be accepted by this world. Otherwise, he would not mind reading the Bible.
Chrollo glanced at the scene and found that it was almost done. Now as long as the last demon-faller, the singer, was eliminated, the demon-falling incident would be completely over.
Before Chrollo made a move, he saw Pariston frowning slightly and looking at him thoughtfully.
"Chrollo-kun, what you did just now, can I think that you are trying to win people's hearts?"
Although actions can reflect a person's true meaning far better than words, Chrollo's kindness to everyone just now is obviously not in line with his nature. He is clearly a person who is extremely indifferent to other people's life and death, even if he is to help Celluloid , but the subsequent response to everyone is completely unnecessary.
So, there must be some purpose for doing this, Pariston tried with a smile while observing the changes in Chrollo's expression.
"You need to win over people's hearts in order to gain prestige. I can understand that this is related to your customs clearance mission? Now you are already a great scholar. If you go further, you can only get the highest position in Tianli. The goal is Ya Sheng? But..."
After a pause, he deliberately glanced at the celluloid, smiled and spoke provocatively.
"Chrollo-kun, now that Miss Cellulu is a born saint, aren't you going to have a conflict? Come to think of it, I don't know what the mission of Little Miss Cellulu is?" What? Is being born a saint a pre-mission buff? Is it convenient for me, young lady, to reveal it?"
He tested Chrollo, and he didn't forget to kill two birds with one stone by testing Celluloid.
However, it is a pity that Chrollo would not be able to test it out with such a test. Even in the face of Pariston's additional malicious estrangement, his face did not change at all, and he just smiled. Blocked? Pariston's question.
"Pariston, that's all you don't need to worry about."
Pariston still suffered from a lack of intelligence. He had no idea that nothing could separate him and Cellululu. Even if their missions really conflicted, he was sure that Cellululu would rather Sacrificing his own mission cannot hinder him.
However, this point is the same for everyone else, so what we need to worry about is not actually the conflict between him and Cellululu's mission, but the conflict between him and other people's missions. Of course, Pa Pariston can pass. If this guy has a conflict with anyone else's mission, Celluloid will not choose to help Pariston.
Chrollo glanced at Cellulu, and was a little curious about how she would respond to Pariston's question, whether it was her status as a born saint or the content of her mission, but most likely she was vague about it. After all, they were mutually exclusive. The content of the mission cannot be disclosed between them.
Unexpectedly, Cellululu was stunned for a moment and then waved her hand cheerfully.
"Born Saint is not a buff, it's my own problem. If it's a mission, you don't have to worry about me. To this world, I'm just a bug, so you just take it as my default decision and I can enter the next one, right? The Rubik's Cube will be accepted regardless of the customs clearance result."
So, Celluloid received two pictures of astonishment, one of depression, and one of understanding and helpless smiles.
After being helpless, Chrollo accepted it well. The higher the freedom of Celluloid, the more loopholes he could exploit to reconcile the possible task conflicts between the two of them. Although he couldn't help but sigh.
"If you use a game metaphor, you are definitely cheating."
Pariston was not only depressed, he even felt as if he was in a daze.
"Krollo-kun is right. Miss Cellulu, you are really cheating. How do you let others play? How is the fairness of the game reflected? Is this Rubik's Cube raised by your family?"
The corner of Cellululu's mouth twitched slightly. This person seemed to be less and less able to conceal his trouble-making mentality. He found that he couldn't set up obstacles in his own tasks. Is he so listless? If you want to cause trouble, okay, let's do it together.
Celluloid smiled back.
"Haha, Mr. Hill, it's okay. If you need it, I can help add some additional gaming experience."
After Pariston was slightly surprised, not only was he not depressed, but he showed an excited expression. That dazzling and bright smile was indeed handsome and attractive. Of course, the words he said made people feel itchy and wanted to punch them. .
"Huh? Little Miss Cellululu has such a fighting spirit, I'm really looking forward to it."
Cellululu rolled her eyes secretly, yes, this is a standard trouble maker, not just S, but also M.
At this time, the Celestial Instrument sounded the alarm again, but the broadcast of the "Desire Factor" was very confusing, as if it could not figure out what the main cause of the devil's fall was, and there was a strong and strange sense of oppression. The low pressure also drifted from behind.
The three of them turned around at the same time, only to realize that it was the seventh-level demon-faller—the singer. But now, perhaps she cannot be called a seventh-level demon-faller. Obviously, the song "Emotions" really reduced the dimension and hit her. Directly knocking her through at least three levels.
The current level of the fallen devil is intermittently hovering between level three and level five. Correspondingly, she is also obviously in chaos. Her desire to sing, her unconfidence in performing this song, and her lack of confidence in the competition. Lulu's resentment and unwillingness turned into a mixed emotion and desire that fermented in her body, making her feel depressed and desperate at one time, and full of rage at the other.
Of course, all of this suddenly solidified under a polite inquiry from Celluloid.
"Miss singer, are you ready? Can you start singing?"
The singer's face turned green and white, and he paused for at least a minute before starting to sing as if he was desperate. However, the result was naturally as expected by several people. Not to mention a perfect reproduction, he couldn't even reach the pitch.
The singer seemed to have been officially hit by this result. His demonic level plummeted to level three, his desire to sing completely collapsed, leaving only the remnants of reluctance and envy, jealousy and hatred towards celluloid, and he completely lost his mind.
Pariston took action at this time. He always had one advantage. After the show ended, he was always willing to help with some sideshows, which was a reward for satisfying his interest.
Cellululu watched the singer disappear completely and sighed slightly. She had no other thoughts except that it was a pity that she was born in the wrong world again.
The demon-falling incident in the Ning'an branch has now been completed, and the two great scholars no longer need to participate in the subsequent ending.
Chrollo stretched out a hand toward Celluloid and said the appropriate words with a smile.
"So, Cellululu, as a great scholar at the headquarters of the Heavenly Assembly, I now officially represent the Heavenly Assembly and the Yasheng, and invite you to go to the headquarters to conduct the verification of a born saint."
