The reason for slowing down was naturally because the stinky girl in his arms opened her eyes at some point, blinked at him, then closed them and continued to pretend to be unconscious.
"..."
The Black Sage was full of anger, but he finally suppressed it and carried Yin Lian back to the temple before throwing the stinky girl onto the bed.
Yin Lian rolled on the bed and then sat up.
The Black Sage rarely showed anger towards her, but at this time he said angrily: "What on earth do you want to do!?"
Yin Lian said: "I didn't want to do anything... I just wanted to buy some time. If the teacher wants to clean up the opponents in Shengcheng, I don't want to stop him. But if I turn a blind eye, it will definitely arouse the doubts of ordinary people, so I've only been in a coma for a few days when the teacher took action."
Black Sage: "..."
After a while, he said: "They are begging you like this, but you are not soft-hearted."
Yin Lian said: "Appropriate cruelty is also a kind of kindness."
The Black Sage chewed on this sentence and felt that it was really meaningful. He immediately looked at Yin Lian with a meaningful look: "Although you are young, you are surprisingly perceptive."
Yin Lian tilted his head and said, "Most people should understand this truth, but unfortunately I don't know why so many people can't understand it."
Just like parents treating their children, they know that spoiling a child is like killing a child, but there are still people who, in the name of love, indulge each other until they are both doomed.
why? A ruthless person like Yin Lian will never understand this stupidity.
She said: "Maybe it's because I'm ruthless and ruthless, so I'm relatively ruthless. If you don't want to condone the other party and make the other party take advantage of it, then you must hit the other party painfully the first time you stretch out your hand that shouldn't be extended."
"Because the first time you may only need a beating, the second time you need to break his hands and feet if you say something is wrong, and the third time you may have to take his life to stop."
"If this happens, it's definitely the fault of the connivator, right? Because the connived...are weak without the ability to control themselves from the beginning. As rulers, they should manage them well from the beginning."
When Yin Lian said these words, she always had a natural smile, as if she was just telling a common truth. However, the Black Sage squinted his eyes and heard some heart-warming hints from her words. Meaning of surprise.
The girl is a strong one. Regardless of her appearance or temperament, in terms of thinking, she has the thinking of a strong person.
She is not cruel, but she is cold enough. People who use correctness instead of passion, and results instead of feelings as the standard for measuring everything are actually the most cruel and ruthless people.
He is as strong and rational as the Black Sage. He has chosen emotions over reason more than once in his life. For a moment, he knew that something was wrong, but he still couldn't help but want to indulge it.
Because even the ruthless black mage is still a human being in essence.
But this girl is different. She is born with a kind of innocent cruelty. That kind of coldness is almost derived from nature, as if she doesn’t actually understand human emotions deep down, but just clumsily follows the existing rules to give human beings conduct is judged.
But that kind of referee is not reckless. On the contrary, it is fair and precise, with extraordinary rationality and unreasonable audacity, which is irrefutable... but it lacks some personal feelings.
People always have emotional biases, but Yin Lian does not. In other words, she has no willingness to give anyone the level of emotion that she is willing to shake her principles for. The Black Sage has no doubt that if one day he goes against the girl's "correctness", he will be abandoned by the girl without mercy.
He liked Lian very much, cared about her very much, took the girl under his wing, and even allowed her to gradually surpass the status of any subordinate and become an important being close to his family. Yin Lian is the first disciple of the Black Sage, and the first person to be so close to the Black Sage spiritually in many years.
Therefore, the Black Sage felt a little hurt when he discovered her cold nature.
He is not a fragile person, otherwise he would not become the Black Sage in the City of Sages. But he had to admit that when facing this girl, he often seemed a little weak.
If you just treat this child as a disciple or ally, it is actually quite cost-effective. Because there is nothing wrong with Yin Lian in terms of behavior and attitude. She behaved very much in line with the duties of a student - even when she pretended to be unconscious in order to prevent her attitude from conflicting with the Black Sage's decision-making, she seemed so sensible... and smart.
But if she is not just a tool, then the Black Sage doesn't want her to be too smart.
He always likes to deal with smart people, but hates Yin Lian's intelligence and rationality. This feeling is very contradictory - if Yin Lian wasn't smart enough, he wouldn't have treated the girl differently in the first place. But when the two gradually developed feelings for each other, the Black Sage began to wish that she would be more stupid.
...There is no need to be too stupid, as long as you have the IQ to protect yourself, act more recklessly, and have to ask for help and rely on the Black Sage more often.
...This kind of thinking is probably the irrational part.
It's the part that the cruel little girl doesn't understand yet.
The Black Sage knew that the relationship between him and Yin Lian was actually not as close as it seemed to outsiders, and at this moment, it would actually be the best choice for him to treat Yin Lian with the same attitude. But after thinking about it for a short time, he chose another path.
He said to Yin Lian: "Lian, sometimes you can't see through it. In fact, it's just because you have feelings."
Yin Lian was stunned for a moment and then said: "This... I still know. However, doing this is not good for anyone, is it?"
The Black Sage shook his head, showed a smile, and said: "On the contrary. The most useful part of the relationship between people is actually the irrational compromise. Just like if one day, between you and me, There are conflicts between them... Perhaps only this kind of irrational compromise can restore some losses that both sides are unhappy with."
Yin Lian didn't expect the Black Sage to say such things. After being shocked, she couldn't help but shout: "Teacher!?"
The Black Sage said: "Think about it carefully."
He turned and walked out the door and began to solve the problem. Yin Lian sat on the edge of the bed and thought for a long time.
She lacks trust in the Black Sage. This distrust is not due to doubts about the Black Sage's character, but on the contrary, it is due to her recognition of the Black Sage's character, character, will, and talents.
The church called that man the Black Mage, and the Black Sage himself recognized the name. Even so, the Black Sage is still not a villain. He has strength, talent, heart, ambition... There is no doubt that he will be the founder of a new era.
The most important thing is... just like Yin Lian, he has a very important thing called ambition.
It's impossible for two careerists with inconsistent interests to coexist peacefully forever, right? No matter how prosperous Yin Lian is in Mathil, in essence, her interests and her destination belong to the earth. And she knew very well that even though the Black Mage was regarded as a villain by the entire continent, the Black Sage himself was the leader of his own people.
So Yin Lian decided... she'd better not develop too deep a relationship with her teacher. Yes, it is like that.
Things in the Holy City began to be taken over by the Black Sage. Because Yin Lian was safe and sound, the Black Sage relaxed his intensity and did not go on a killing spree, but some necessary warnings and counterattacks still had to continue.
As a comatose, Yin Lian didn't have much room to perform, so he went back to play with the "goddess".
Goddess Ji Xiangjun is very busy during this time because she is working on a foundation. This is a foundation established in the name of Yin Lian. It is charity in name, but in fact, Ji Xiangjun hopes to accumulate blessings for his daughter in the name of charity.
Yin Lian knew that her mother was a rich man, but she was still a little frightened by her generosity.
Ji Xiangjun's charitable foundation is mainly aimed at rescuing abused and abducted children. The purpose is so clear. Considering Yin Lian's experience, it is not difficult to guess the reason for her decision.
Ji Xiangjun established a private charity foundation. Currently, the charity activities tentatively include two parts, one is the rescue of abused children, and the other is the recovery of abducted children. These two problems are long-standing problems in China and are quite difficult to solve. But even so, Ji Xiangjun was not afraid of difficulties and took action step by step.
She established a website, invested money, collected a large amount of relevant help information, and established a mutual aid association for the families of abducted children, many of which she did personally.
Trying your best to make people feel incredible.
Ji Xiangjun is a typical socialite in the eyes of outsiders. This sentence means that even if she does charity, in the eyes of others, she should just hold a charity dinner, donate a large sum of money, and auction a few expensive luxury goods... instead of working so hard and doing it herself.
But only Ji Xiangjun knew that her real purpose was not charity. The reason why she is willing to put in so much effort, rather than simply donating money to show kindness, is precisely because this matter is so important, so important that she hopes to show her sincerity to gods, Buddhas, or other beings in the most sincere manner. .
Let her most pitiable little daughter live a healthy and happy life, and no longer need to endure any hardships.
When Yin Lian walked in that day, Ji Xiangjun was looking at the newly collected missing person information. When he saw his daughter coming in with tea, he immediately laughed and asked, "Are you still awake?"
Yin Lian replied: "Mom didn't sleep either."
Ji Xiangjun glanced at Yin Lian, then stretched out his hand to hold his daughter in his arms and said, "After seeing these news, I feel that I am so lucky. There are countless people in this world who have lost their children. It can never be found again. No matter how many years it takes or how much effort it takes...it will be of no use."
As Yin Lian listened, she felt something wet fall on her neck. She immediately turned around and shouted in surprise: "Mom?"
Then she saw Ji Xiangjun's tearful face.
