"So, this eleventh beast does not belong to the ten kinds of beasts that should have existed, so is it called a non-existent beast?" Chen Fan had no interest in religious wars, and out of boredom, Chen Fan subconsciously started massaging his hands. Get on Mordred's feet.
"That's an explanation." He glared at Chen Fan fiercely, but Mordred felt that this guy's massage technique was pretty good, so he didn't avoid it at all and just let him massage his feet.
Anyway, he has already been seen, so this kind of small action doesn't matter. If he does something strange with a cerebral hemorrhage, it will be too easy to kill him.
"Another explanation is that the eleventh beast is actually subconsciously ignored by people. It is the beast itself of '666' with seven heads and ten crowns that carries the existence of the Great Temptress of Babylon."
"But if you think about it this way, it should be the number one beast. The codename given by the Tower of Babel should be Beast the First, right?" Belia didn't agree with this statement.
"Well, anyway, these are some topics that are debated endlessly within the Tower of Babel. What does it have to do with us floating spirits who are not even scholars? Besides, instead of caring about the illusory and illusory, what exactly does 'BE' represent that is far away from our own lives? What, you might as well pay more attention to your belly." Looking out the window at the almost dusk sky, Mordred scratched his head, "We got up very late, and then we helped Belia and talked. I’ve asked a lot of theological questions, and now I’m almost hungry.”
"Then why don't we call Cronus's wife again..." As soon as the word Cronus came out of his mouth, Belia and Mordred's complicated eyes pierced Chen Fan like knives. , making him shrink back and quickly change the subject, "It's okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."
With a sigh, Belia dialed a number: "I asked for the store number at King McGee yesterday. They must have a delivery service. Let me treat you today as compensation for what happened last night. "
"Hey, um," Mordred lifted his feet from Chen Fan and walked to the bed. He sat down next to Belia and put his arm around her shoulders. "Actually, there is no such thing as you." It’s as serious as I imagined, after all, we are both women, and even Potian can’t do anything too extreme, it’s better than the stinky man over there being forced to join in last night.”
"Hello!"
Ignoring Chen Fan who stood up and protested, Mordred continued to put his arm around Belia's shoulders: "So, you don't need to think too much about some things. Let's just consider today's dinner as an apology. I am also happy to accept it." , if it really doesn’t work, then let us find out at the rookie game organized by the National League in three months.”
Hearing this, he was slightly startled, and then Belia responded with a gentle smile: "Indeed, if you really have any opinions, let's find out in the rookie game."
As soon as he got up, he heard new vocabulary. The curious baby Chen Fan's eyes suddenly lit up: "What is the rookie competition?"
"Huh?" Belia and Mordred couldn't help but look at him strangely: "You don't plan to participate in the rookie competition?"
Chen Fan continued to look curious: "What is the rookie competition?"
"...It seems you really don't know." After staring at Chen Fan for a long time, Mordred intuitively confirmed that he was not pretending to be stupid before explaining: "Large-scale competitions organized by international organizations, For the international rookie selection held every three years, all floating spirits under the age of thirty and below the third level within the Yunshang area can sign up to participate.
Not only are the prizes generous, but there are also many benefits. In addition to many independent Piao Linghui who want to win the ranking, many large and small organizations regard this as a way to show their heritage.
Whether it's for prizes, fame or a place to stay, this is a great opportunity. If you can get the top ten rankings, in addition to the prizes, it will be of great benefit whether you want to get along in your Central Plains Management Bureau or do other things. "
After Mordred's introduction, Belia took a deep look at Chen Fan and said, "To be honest, I thought you were determined to win."
All I have to say is that you are so curious, why don't you take part?
"Ahem, I really didn't know this happened." Chen Fan scratched his long two-toned hair, his face full of innocence.
Needless to say, Sister Xiaojiu must have thought this matter was too dangerous, so she simply didn't tell her.
"Hmm... I think Chen Fan, you'd better take part, because the venue chosen for this rookie competition is said to happen once in a thousand years, and in response to this situation, the Special Reserve Bureau and the National League have worked together to come up with a detailed set of rules. Barrier, within this barrier, if the floating spirits of level three and below die unfortunately, they will be teleported back to a safe area to avoid actual death."
As she spoke, Belia picked up her phone and started typing, and soon the news points were displayed in front of Chen Fan: "It is also for this reason that there are so many contestants participating this year, even if they have passed one round of review and screening. , there are still about 10,000 people left to participate.”
"Oh." Chen Fan was startled by the number ten thousand, and immediately shook his head, "In this case, I, a little person who has just become a floating spirit for less than half a year, will not go in and show my face. Hello, I am okay, everyone."
"Sorry, it's late." As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, Mordred held up his mobile phone expressionlessly: "I have registered for you, and it has just passed the review. Congratulations, your surname is Chen. of."
Chen Fan couldn't help but take a breath, grabbed Mordred's hand and stared at the photo of himself on it, feeling dizzy: "No, where did you get my information?"
"This kind of information," Mordred shook off Chen Fan's paw and put the phone back into his pocket with a nonchalant expression, "just use your connections to check it out."
"Fuck, what does your family do?" At this point, Chen Fan was too lazy to bother. Besides, he couldn't defeat Mordred at all, so he could only complain a few words full of resentment.
"I want you to take care of it?"
Mordred was not polite and just rolled his eyes and went back.
But Belia looked at the hand on her shoulder and didn't understand: "Well, Mordred, why do you like to put your arm on my shoulder?"
Regarding this question, Mordred hadn't said anything yet, but Chen Fan had seized the opportunity: "Because Mordred is short, if you think about it, when you stand up, I can reach you near your shoulders, and she can reach you." My chest is pretty good, so why don’t I seize this opportunity to be on an equal footing with you?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a pillow hit Chen Fan's face directly, and the huge impact knocked him over.
Then, Mordred became angry and jumped up, jumped on Chen Fan and stepped on him: "You are the only one who talks a lot, and you are the only one who can do it, right?"
"Wow! Belia, save me!!!"
…
…
After cleaning up Chen Fan, who was seeking his own death, Mordred leaned back a little unhappily and sat on the soft big bed: "I found that some people are really in debt, let alone not fighting for a day, just take a rest. If you don’t take care of it, you will immediately be resurrected with full health and be in front of your eyes, making a fool of yourself.”
Belia felt the same way, nodded and added by the way: "And the most uncomfortable thing is that although you can break bones and other things to teach some lessons, you really can't give some more profound lessons. This kind of ability can It’s really unpleasant to be able to flexibly control the degree of suicide, so that you just get beaten up instead of dying on the spot.”
After each said their thoughts, Mordred and Belia looked at each other, and their eyes couldn't help but reveal their recognition of each other's words and their empathy for the situation.
Then Chen Fan, who had recovered 70% to 80%, got up from the carpet and continued: "Well, I didn't do anything that broke the law. If you really kill me, won't you have to feel guilty for the rest of your life?"
Regarding Chen Fan's words, Belia really had a flash of hesitation in her eyes, but Mordred had no such worries: "Fart, someone who abides by the bottom line of the law all his life is a complete scum!" How can I feel guilty about the death of such a scumbag?"
"Hey, what you said is meaningless." Completely forgetting that he had just been punished by Mordred, Chen Fan retorted while lying on the table while Ye Yi shook his head, "I can definitely say that I am an obedient person. A law-abiding person will do everything in compliance with the law. If that's the case, why do you call me a scumbag?"
As a result, Mordred immediately retorted: "Because the law is only the minimum requirement of morality. A law-abiding person will stay away from prison all his life and has never been bitten by the criminal law, but it does not mean that he is a noble person."
After hearing what Mordred said, Belia also reacted and stared directly at Chen Fan who was also sitting on the bed. Although she said nothing, it made him feel a chill down his spine.
"Ahem, cough, cough," Chen Fan quickly said something lofty in order to save some impression points, "I like the law very much. I think the law is the best thing ever invented by mankind.
Do you know what a person is? In my eyes, man is the sum of divinity and animality. That is, it has good things that you can't imagine, and it also has evil things that you can't imagine. There is no right or wrong, this is human beings.
Therefore, the law is particularly lovely. It doesn’t care how good you can be, but it limits you to how bad you can be. It knows that everyone has some dirty things in their heart. It can think about it, but it can't do it.
The law is more like the subsistence allowance of human nature, a compulsory cultivation. It's not like a religion that requires you to be high-minded but low-handed. It tells you in a down-to-earth manner what it should be like at least. He is also humane and ruthless. "
"..." After staring at Chen Fan for a while, Belia slowly moved her recovered body, "This is not something you can say. Are you copying other people's famous sayings, or what?"
While thinking that it was indeed Belia, Chen Fan helplessly shrugged: "It's from a movie called "Heart of the Burning Sun". It's a very good and rare movie from the Central Plains."
"I'll take a look when I have time." Trying to move her shoulders, Belia then relaxed other parts of her body.
"So, the law should protect all morals. Only in this way can it be called a complete law." Looking at Chen Fan beside him proudly, Mordred stretched out his hand and gave him a blow.
"Hiss!" He looked at Mordred with some annoyance, and Chen Fan covered his slightly swollen forehead and retorted sarcastically, "I don't think so, such seemingly kind wishes often turn into Humanity is leading to hell on earth. If nothing else, just look at the classics in your Christianity, there are almost no people in the world who can enter heaven, okay?"
Mordred was not angry about this, which surprised Chen Fan.
She just glanced at Chen Fan nonchalantly: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"I personally don't have any good ideas," shrugged his shoulders. Chen Fan was quite indifferent to this issue. "I can only tell you that once the law's protection of morality reaches this point, in fact, most people will not be able to do it." If you do, it will be equivalent to forcing people to fake things, forcing people to say one thing and do another, and hypocrites will prevail in the world. In the words of Confucius, the ancient Confucian scholar in the Central Plains: Tao is governed by Tao, and punishment is used to regulate, and the people will be spared without shame."
"Translate, I'm not from the Central Plains and I can't understand classical Chinese." Mordred raised his hand as he spoke. He originally wanted to give Chen Fan another blow, but he was on guard and avoided it.
"It means that if you use political decrees to guide the people and use criminal laws to discipline the people, although the people can avoid committing crimes, they will have no shame. There is also a second half of this sentence, which is to guide them with virtue and harmonize them with etiquette. Shameful and dignified." Turning his head to avoid Mordred's finger, Chen Fan looked at her sternly, "It means to teach the people with morality and use ethics to unify their words and deeds. Then the people will know how to be ashamed and can make people's hearts turn. Submit."
"It's a bit interesting, but not that interesting." Mordred stopped chasing him and sat on the edge of the bed, raising his arms and stretching. Chen Fan couldn't help but take a second look at his slender and graceful figure.
Then, Yoichi meowed, stepped on his face with a big jump, and then jumped onto Mordred's lap.
"You're a more interesting cat than your master." After saying something meaningful, Mordred stopped talking to Chen Fan and stretched out his hand to tease Yoruichi on his lap.
Seeing that Mordred ignored him and did not see Belia moving her body, Chen Fan took off his shoes and crawled along the sheets to Belia. He put his face up and asked curiously: "Belia Leah, what do you think?”
Looking sideways at Chen Fan as he crawled over, Mordred just stroked Ye Yi's smooth fur with enjoyment, without any intention of reminding him.
"To be virtuous is to be virtuous; to be virtuous is not to be virtuous, to be ungrateful. (The most virtuous people never claim to be virtuous, so they are truly virtuous; those with low morals claim that they are not deviant. Immoral, so he does not really have morals.)" After saying what I said lightly, Belia silently closed her fist in her stomach.
The next moment, she punched Chen Fan to the other side of the room.
Looking at the body flying over his head, Mordred whistled happily: "Nice!"
