The three quietly listened to the story told by Nie Wei, and the doubts in their eyes did not dissipate from the beginning to the end.
"What are you trying to tell us by telling this story?" Kong Tianshi was the first to question.
After getting along with each other for this period of time, the three of Kong Tianshi couldn't admit that Nie Wei was still very smart. There were many things they couldn't understand, but Nie Wei could think of it first.
I thought that a little celestial master came in to slow things down, but I didn't expect that he was smarter than the three of them combined. Although he was not strong enough, he had a strong IQ. The third celestial master was very sure of the intelligence of this little celestial master.
"Let me tell another story. In ancient times, there was a man named Wang Zhi who was gifted in reading since he was a child. He and his friend Sun Ming from the same academy were selected as scholars at the same time.
One day, a distinguished guest came to the academy, a Juren. The master Juren heard that Wang Zhi and Sun Ming were quite talented, so he wanted to choose one of them as a disciple and take him with him to teach.
Both Wang and Sun wanted to become disciples of the Master Juren, and the Master Juren specially set up three checkpoints to test their talents in order to accept apprentices.
The duo each won a game in the two levels, but the third level was a test of painting, which is what Wang Zhi is good at. Sun Ming was afraid that he would not be able to beat Wang Zhi, so he lied to Wang Zhi the day before the competition. He went out and killed him, and forged the scene of someone robbing money and killing him.
As soon as Wang Zhi died, Sun Ming was naturally accepted as a disciple by the Juren master. Three years later, he won the position of Tanhua in the imperial examination, and it was so glorious to return home..."
"Many years later, Sun Ming became an official in the capital and married the daughter of a senior official. The two had a son and a daughter. They lived happily ever after.
A colleague of Sun Ming lives next to Sun Ming's house. There is a son in the colleague's family who is very close to Sun Ming's two children, and the three children often play together.
One day, three children were playing at Sun Ming's house, and the three of them competed to play slingshots. Sun Ming happened to pass by and was hit on the forehead by a stone shot by the son of a colleague. Sun Ming's forehead immediately became red, swollen and dizzy.
The wife of Sun Ming's family was Xianhui, so he ordered someone to take the ointment for removing blood stasis, and boiled a decoction for Sun Ming to take. Unexpectedly, the next day, Sun Ming died suddenly at home bleeding from seven holes.
Because of Sun Ming's identity, this incident naturally caused a great commotion. People thought it was Sun Ming's wife who killed her husband, so they arrested her..."
"Fortunately, Sun Ming's wife's natal family had some means, and quickly found out the real cause of Sun Ming's death. It turned out that Sun Ming had taken the medicine not long after that day, and then ate some medicated food prepared by the kitchen.
This medicated diet is Sun Ming's favorite meal on weekdays. I don't want to think that one of the medicinal materials in the medicated diet is incompatible with the medicine that Sun Fu takes. Taking the two medicinal materials together is a deadly poison. Sun Ming was not poisoned by anyone. , and died accidentally.
And Sun Ming's death was due to a very common game for children..."
"The son of that colleague, could it be that Wang Zhi was reincarnated?" With the background of the previous story, Lin Tianshi quickly thought of this.
Nie Wei nodded, "Exactly, that child was reincarnated with memories, and when he was playing with Sun Ming's children with the slingshot, he also deliberately shot a stone at Sun Ming's head.
As far as he was concerned, he just shot a stone on Sun Ming's head, he didn't directly kill someone at all, but Sun Ming lost his life because of a small stone..."
"I understand what you mean. This is a kind of causality. What causes what happens? If the bastard hadn't killed the woman in the same village, the bastard would not have died. If Sun Ming hadn't killed Wang Zhi, Wang Zhi He won't come back to seek revenge on him, and he won't die." Pang Tianshi nodded, and suddenly understood what Nie Wei meant.
"You mean, you suspect that someone in the village was born with a memory. That person had an enmity with the village in his previous life, so he was reincarnated in this life for revenge!" Lin Tianshi thought of another point.
"No way!" Kong Tianshi couldn't believe it.
Nie Wei didn't nod or shake his head, "That's not the point I want to tell you. I haven't seen whether there are people in this village who have reincarnated with memories to take revenge, but I can see another thing."
"The causal relationship that Tianshi Pang said just now is actually correct, but I think it's more like a butterfly effect..." Nie Wei said.
"What do you mean by that?" The three celestial masters were puzzled.
All three of them had heard the term "butterfly effect", but they didn't understand why Nie Wei used it here.
"A butterfly in the Amazon rainforest of South America, occasionally flapping its wings, can cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later.
If we can't find the butterfly flapping its wings from the root, no matter how much we do, it will be impossible to break this endless loop. "
"We know that the root of the problem is Lin Xiaobao's death, but we failed to save Lin Xiaobao twice, and we have no fourth chance!" Kong Tianshi said with a sigh.
"What we can do now is to try to stop Daniel poisoning the whole village on the seventh day. As long as Daniel doesn't poison the people in the village, we still have hope to leave here." Lin Tianshi said.
"Exactly." Pang Tianshi nodded in agreement.
The three of them put the two stories told by Nie Wei behind them, deciding that the most important thing now is to stop Daniel.
Nie Wei was bowing her head in thought, is the butterfly that caused all the tragedies in the backstory really Xiaobao
The four once again entered the village to live as refugees, and time passed day by day.
On the seventh day, Nie Wei and the others stole the poison collected by Daniel in order to prevent Daniel from poisoning the whole village.
Myrrh disappeared, but Daniel directly poured a large amount of Mongolian and Chinese medicines into the village.
Seeing this, the four of them thought it would be fine to just knock Daniel unconscious. As long as Daniel can't move, the villagers will not die.
But unexpectedly, when the four of them wanted to fight against Niu, they found that they couldn't get close to Daniel at all. The four of them and Daniel suddenly thought that they were people in two dimensions, and they could see Daniel's every move. , but cannot interfere with Daniel's actions.
They could only watch helplessly as Daniu set fire from house to house and burned the whole village down after the medicine poured over the whole village.
In this fire, no one lives.
The three of Kong Tianshi looked desperate. This was their third chance, but they all failed three times. This also means that they will be assimilated by this space just like Cao Tianshi, and they will never be able to leave.
The three of them are all celestial masters who have stood at the top of the cultivation world through strong winds and waves. They never imagined that if the three of them shot at the same time, they would still be trapped in this ghost domain, and they might even be trapped to death in this place.
On the eighth day, the four of them woke up again and found that they had become residents of the village.
Pang Tianshi became a strange-tempered old man in the village whose son and daughter-in-law died and who lived with his granddaughter. (end of this chapter)
