"What is destiny?"
"Destiny is those things that you cannot change but have to face." The man said, "If you want to fight fate, you must master the power.
"This power can be power, wealth, martial arts, or the secret power of a practitioner... However, these things are too far away from ordinary people. Not everyone is in a high position, rich enough to rival the country, and Perhaps the martial arts are extraordinary, but there are even fewer people who can enter the academy to practice.
“Only rare things are within everyone’s reach.”
"So you and your men turned those innocent people into strange objects for you to fight against your fate. Don't you think this is a bit ironic?" Kui said.
"I have never turned an innocent person into a strange object," the man shook his head. "I can promise you this, and I will not force anyone to do anything."
"Then what does this mean?" Kui said coldly, "You used that strange thing that can erase a person's existence to lure me here, and then used this chessboard to trap me. Doesn't that count? Forced?"
"I just want to have a face-to-face chat with you like this, but based on my understanding of you, if I make such a request rashly, it is almost impossible for you to agree." The man said helplessly, "So I have to use a little Use some means."
"Then why involve him?"
Kui pointed to the square bluestone on the right. One side of the bluestone was as smooth as jade, and the amazing thing was that there were two figures reflected above. One of them was riding a horse and the other was walking. They were going up the mountain at the moment.
"Oh, that guy, I don't know if our horoscopes are at odds with each other. That guy seems to be always causing trouble for me recently. Zhaozong is a very important companion of mine.
"Although he, like you, doesn't trust me too much and is always making his own small calculations, no matter what, we still have more consensus than differences on the general direction. In order to get him out of Jinghu It cost me a lot to get it out in the valley.
"But in the end, because of that kid's intervention, Zhaozong was forced to turn into a tree, which was equivalent to overturning all my previous plans.
"But if it's just this matter, it doesn't really matter. After all, our positions are different. He made a superior move and broke my game. I was convinced that I lost. But the problem is that he also forced my woman to death. .”
"Your woman, the widow named Wang Wan?" Kui frowned.
The man nodded and sighed, "She admires me very much. She is willing to do anything for me. Even if I ask her to sacrifice her life, she will not hesitate at all. It's a pity that Luohua is ruthless on purpose. I What I have to do is destined to prevent me from falling into the infatuation of my children like others.
"So I rejected her, but I accepted her two children as disciples. Before I left, I also warned her, asking her to find a way to restrain her inner desire for power, because no matter what kind of power, once it loses control, it will eventually... Bring destruction.
"Unfortunately, I didn't expect that I would receive news of her death a few years later, and the person who forced her to death was the academy disciple named Lu Jing.
"Although I had a premonition that such a day would come when we separated, when that day actually came I was still very heartbroken, even more heartbroken than I expected.
"I know that Wang Wan is not a good person in the eyes of most of you, but in my eyes, she is just a poor woman who admires me. I gave her the power to get rid of her fate. Unfortunately, I was too busy later. , unable to teach her well, which also led to her eventually going astray."
The man blamed himself, "I couldn't do much for her when she was alive. Now that she is dead, I want to do something to compensate her, or at least help her avenge her."
"So this time your target is actually not me, but him?" Kui's frown deepened, "But how do you know it's him who comes this time? Si Tianjian has indeed been promoting supervision and the academy during this time. The disciple's plan to partner up to investigate the case, but the specific candidate has always been a secret.
"Even I only found out yesterday that the person promoted by the academy was him. Could it be that there is a mole in the academy and Si Tianjian, and his position is not low?"
The man smiled, as if he didn't care that such an important matter was discovered by Aoi, and he wasn't worried that the mole would be dug out.
Kui also thought of something, and immediately said, "What you talked about before was all about fate and equality. I thought you were a real person, but in the end it was all lies.
"You not only have to deal with Lu Jing today, but you also don't want to let me go, right?"
The man shook his head again, "No, I sincerely regard you as a comrade and want to recruit you. Even if you disagree, I will not hurt you, because one day you will understand me."
"Then I'm afraid you will regret it. As long as I can leave alive today, sooner or later the nail you buried in Si Tian Prison will be dug out by me." Kui said calmly.
"Really?" The man didn't care, "Who can tell what will happen in the future, but now...it's your turn."
As he spoke, he pointed at the chessboard again.
However, Kui's attention was attracted by the image on the square bluestone. Lu Jing and the tall and thin man who looked like a bamboo pole had arrived in front of a temple.
The three characters "Qingquan Temple" are clearly written on the plaque on the mountain gate.
"This is it." Gong Hao looked at the plaque and said to Lu Jing behind him. After saying this, he also turned over and dismounted, "That strange thing is right here."
"Can you tell me what that thing looks like now?" Lu Jing asked.
However, Gong Hao still shook his head after hearing this, "No."
After a pause, he explained, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I can't tell you, because once you know what that thing looks like, you will be wiped out of the world like those unlucky ghosts."
"Then how to find it?" Lu Jing was stunned.
Gong Hao took out two pieces of black cloth from his arms and gave one to Lu Jing, "When you get to the place, remember to cover your eyes. You don't have to go find him. As long as you do as I say, when you get there, It will naturally come to you when the time comes.”
"Master Gong wants me to lure it out, what about you, Master Gong?"
"Of course we are ready to deal with that thing." Gong Hao patted the three deerskin bags on his waist and said, "Don't worry, as long as we can solve this trouble, you will definitely get the credit. The agency will reward you with silver." We’ll split it half and half, and the academy should also give some feedback, so that part is all yours.”
