After the Demon Summoning Array incident, Jiang Ru has not been in touch with anyone, including his girlfriend and family, because he needs time, time to re-examine himself and sort out everything in front of him.
And on this day, a long-lost visitor knocked on his door.
"Open the door, I know you're inside."
Jiang Ru already knew who the visitor was, so he came to the door reluctantly and opened it: "I thought our deal was over."
Fengxian still had a calm expression on her face: "No, I still owe you. I am not the one who rewrites the fate. I have not fulfilled your request."
Jiang Ru sighed: "Come in and talk."
After Fengxian sat down, Jiang Ru didn't seem to want to make tea to entertain him, but started to say something that the other party didn't like to hear very much: "I have thought a lot recently and understood some things more, so I want to give you A word of advice, don't try to change the future."
"You really know something..." Feng Xian stared into Jiang Ru's eyes and said in a deep voice.
"Actually, I know the question you are going to ask today, but I can't tell you. Moreover, even if I tell you, you won't get what you want in the end."
Fengxian didn't speak, but thought for a while and then said: "Then how do you explain the deal with me? You have already told me the exact time and place where you will reunite with her, but now you refuse to tell me what will happen in the end? "
"I shouldn't even tell you the time and place..." Jiang Ru lowered his head and said thoughtfully: "Let me explain this way, if I directly reveal the future, I will suffer a huge backlash when the future coincides with the reality. Only by expressing it in the form of prophecy can we weaken or even avoid this impact, as for your and her future, if I tell you, you will definitely try to change, and you will definitely regret it by then."
"That Guiguzi didn't die, and the magic summoning array didn't activate. Doesn't this prove that you succeeded in rewriting the future?"
Jiang Ru smiled wryly: "No, you didn't understand, I was just trying to rewrite it, but I didn't succeed, I failed, you didn't stop Hong Yu, from this point on, I have already failed, next Shang Ling Xue killed Wang Xu and activated the Demon Summoning Formation, and that was the result, nothing changed.
On the contrary, the appearance of Lu Kun is a variable, but before this variable has an impact on the future, another person stands up, that is Wang Xu, he is the one who really rewrites the fate. It is precisely because Wang Xu used his dominance ability at the last moment, so he did not die, the future changed, he stopped Shang Lingxue, everything was changed by him. "
Fengxian was still puzzled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's you or him who changed the future, in fact it was successful, so why can't I?"
Jiang Ru lowered his head: "The price, those who change the future have to pay the price..."
Feng Xian seemed to understand something, her expression suddenly changed, and Jiang Ru continued: "Wang Xu paid a huge price... If we look at the whole thing from the objective future of this world, we may feel that everything is going in a good direction , ghosts did not overrun the world, and there was no mass human death.
But if we look at the whole thing from Wang Xu's subjective future alone, it will be very different. The original future was that he would be killed by his beloved, and then it would be over. The future belonging to Wang Xu would end here, and he would leave this world.
And now in the future, Wang Xu still lives in this world, but he has completely forgotten about Shang Lingxue! Do you think... is this lucky or unlucky for him? "
Fengxian leaned on the back of the chair, her back drenched in cold sweat: "The price of changing fate... I understand, this price is for the individual!"
Jiang Rudao: "Yes, human beings are not a common whole, but countless individual consciousnesses. Therefore, for everyone, there is a future of their own. The price of rewriting the future is that the person who rewrites will pay more and bear more. more than he was willing to bear.
For example, a person knows that his friend will be hit and killed by a car one day, and he saves that friend, then the price he pays may be that this friend will personally kill him one day, or that this friend will suddenly get cancer , died under the torment of illness.
This is... the punishment of those "gods" on those who defy the sky, the whole world will still run, and it is just a slight change in the eyes of others, but for the person involved, this is a disaster and unbearable pain. Changing the future will only double your pain... "
Fengxian didn't say anything else, he stood up and left, at least he knew one thing in advance this time, that is, his reunion with "that person" might... not be as smooth as he imagined.
…
"Hey! Wang Xu, what kind of expression do you have! You are on the stage, do you show the audience this expression during the official performance?!" Yan Li educated Wang Xu like a child.
But Wang Xu still seemed to have two words written on his face: unhappy.
"What do you think... a swamp monster should look like..."
"At least cheer up, don't look so listless." Yan Li still didn't give up.
"That means being hacked to death happily..." Wang Xu still chose to complain.
"It won't be strange if you will be asked to wear costumes during the official performance."
"Is the costume you're talking about the pile of garbage I made myself this morning out of cardboard, plastic foam, and unidentified green slime..."
Yan Li's patience seemed to be at its limit: "Even if it's rubbish, you did it yourself!"
"The blueprints you drew are the ones who deserve the credit..."
Yan Li's face darkened, she seemed not to be so angry suddenly, her cat-like eyes widened, then she reached out her hand to take out the small notebook she carried with her from her coat pocket, and began to write.
"Look...he made the senior sister angry."
"He's dead now."
"Flash, flash, be careful not to hurt the fish in the pond."
The people around were chattering, Wang Xu was still quite arrogant, originally he didn't want to participate in this so-called rehearsal today, because his lines were: "Ah!" "Wow!" "Uh..."
To be honest, from this line, it can be seen that the swamp monster he played will be killed in less than a minute after its appearance. According to Wang Xu's idea, he just put on his clothes and went on stage to roar twice during the performance. The rehearsal is wasting his youth.
That's the kind of guy he is, and even though he's wasting his youth on a daily basis, it's annoying when he's forced to do something.
"That's all for today. You can go to the backstage to help first, and the rehearsal will continue." Yan Li was very calm when she spoke, as if nothing unpleasant happened just now.
Wang Xu shrugged and walked away. He would rather help others move things than participate in this kind of children's house-like rehearsal.
A hand was placed on his shoulder, and Qi Bing's expressionless face quietly appeared.
"what?"
"Now you're finished... I can't help you either."
"what are you talking about?"
"Yanli wrote down your name..."
"so what?"
"Anyone who offends her and whose name is written down..." Qi Bing moved his face a little closer, looking full of shadows: "He will suffer her inhumane revenge..."
Wang Xu still pretended to be completely indifferent: "You don't mean to say that the book in her hand is the legendary powerful notebook where people will die inexplicably if they write their name and method of death..."
The shadow on Qi Bing's face became more intense: "Her book is even scarier...you will understand soon."
