Old Man Tianji frowned slightly, and said, "What did you say?"
"I said... there is no such thing as fate."
Chen Changsheng raised his head, his eyes were calm and firm: "Then naturally there will be no nemesis."
Old Man Tianji looked at him and said with a serious expression: "Fate is in the starry sky."
Chen Changsheng said: "Then please do your calculations first, and then tell me who I am and what I should do instead of letting me decide what to do."
"There are not many things that I can't figure out, and there are very few people, and you are one of them." The old man Tianji's brows and eyes suddenly became more vicissitudes of life, and he said: "Because your teacher can cover up the sky, so can the black robe. If this is their game, I really don't have the confidence to break it."
Hearing the name of the demon army strategist, Chen Changsheng's mood became a little strange: "...is this matter related to the black robe?"
"If it's not bad, you left Xining for the capital. This is a conspiracy against the empress." Old Man Tianji didn't know if it was because he had spent too much time persuading him, and he seemed a little tired: "I don't know. What they'll do, it's definitely up to you."
Chen Changsheng was silent again.
He remembered the words Xu Yourong said to himself at night.
He remembered the words Tang Tang said to himself in the Orthodox Academy a long time ago.
Those words and those words, as well as the first words of old man Tianji, all directly pointed to his teacher and His Majesty the Pope.
"I... won't cooperate."
These are five simple words, but it took Chen Changsheng a long time to utter them from his lips with difficulty.
Because this meant that he began to have some doubts about his teacher and His Majesty the Pope.
Perhaps, the teacher and the Pope are using him for a great purpose.
Just like this time Hanshan set up a situation to seriously injure the devil.
He can take it, but he doesn't like it.
One time is fine, not too many times.
"But... what if you've always been part of this conspiracy?"
"What if you've been living in a conspiracy?"
"What if your existence itself is a conspiracy?"
Old Man Tianji didn't stop there because of his answer, but asked three consecutive questions extremely forcefully and even coldly.
And, it wasn't over yet, there were still several questions that were slapped on Chen Changsheng's face like freezing rain.
"If you are really Prince Zhaoming, why did the dean of business and the pope want you to enter the capital?"
"Did they think they could hide it from the empress's eyes? No, they are even deliberately letting the empress see you and pay attention to you."
"Why? Could it be that they just want to send you to the empress to kill, so as to complete her life-defying change?"
"Chen Changsheng, don't try to answer these questions, because when you see the answer, you will already be part of the answer."
"Before all this happens, go away, disappear, and don't let anyone find you again."
Chen Changsheng didn't want to continue listening.
He stood up, looked at Old Man Tianji and said, "Actually, there is an easier way to solve this problem."
"What?"
"You're going to kill me right now."
"No, I won't kill you."
"Why?"
Old Man Tianji looked at him and said calmly, "Because, I won't make choices for your empress."
Chen Changsheng looked at him quietly and said, "Then, please don't make the choice for me."
After saying this, he didn't stop any longer, turned around and walked towards the thick fog outside the garden.
Looking at his back, old man Tianji said with a bit of fatigue: "Disappear, just like Su Li, this is the greatest kindness to the world."
Chen Changsheng stopped, but didn't say anything.
He took a bite of the peach in his hand, and walked into the mist.
…
…
When the fog gathers and the fog clears, people go and people come.
Not long after Chen Changsheng left, Xu Yourong came to the small island in the middle of the lake by boat, and sat in the same seat as before.
Old Man Tianji said, "Actually, there was someone else who sat here before you and Chen Changsheng."
Xu Yourong said, "Who?"
Old Man Tianji said, "Liu Qing."
Xu Yourong thought for a while before remembering the name.
"I asked Liu Qing what kind of person Chen Changsheng is."
Old Man Tianji said: "He thought about it seriously for a long time, and then told me... Chen Changsheng is a good man."
Xu Yourong felt a little subtle that a world-renowned assassin had such an evaluation of Chen Changsheng.
"What about you? In your opinion, what kind of person is Chen Changsheng?"
Old Man Tianji looked at her and asked calmly.
The question was too calm, and the old man's eyes were too calm, as if he knew a lot of inside information.
No one knew how Xu Yourong was feeling, but the white gauze fluttered lightly in the lake wind, as if it was about to merge with the mist.
Her voice pierced through the veil, soft and sure.
"He's a real person."
Hearing this sentence, old man Tianji was slightly moved, he didn't expect Xu Yourong to think so highly of him.
Thinking about the things that happened to Chen Changsheng in the past two years, he found that this evaluation was actually very accurate.
"It's really not easy to be able to maintain a pure heart in the world of mortals."
Old Man Tianji sighed, and then said: "Tell my mother, if Chen Changsheng returns to the capital, kill him, don't hesitate any longer."
The previous sentence is still admiring, and the next sentence will kill it.
The capital is covered with crowns, and everyone in the world wants to kill them.
The garden is very quiet, and the sound of the lake lapping against the shore of the island is very clear.
Xu Yourong didn't speak, but just looked at the old man.
The fluttering white gauze could cover her perfect face, but it couldn't stop her calm but tough eyes.
The old man Tianji didn't meet her eyes, stood up, looked at the lake outside the fog with his hands behind his back, and said in an emotionless voice: "If you don't want to give up, then take him away, use Baihe to use your childhood with affection, no matter what you use The means are good, the farther you go, the better."
Xu Yourong looked at the old man's back and asked, "What exactly did you figure out?"
Old Man Tianji didn't turn around, and said: "He has been in a coma for three days and three nights, and I will count him for three days and three nights, it is still a fog, only a bright light."
Xu Yourong murmured: "Bright light?"
"That light is extremely clear, like Su Li's sword..."
The old man Tianji finally said: "If he returns to the capital alive, the empress will die. How do you choose?"
…
…
Back in the small building, standing by the fence, looking at the big lake in front of him, Chen Changsheng didn't feel open-minded.
He thought about what old man Tianji said - leaving like Su Li is the greatest kindness to this world.
So, what about the world's kindness towards Senior Su Li? Where is the goodwill towards me
Leaning on the fence facing the wind, he was silent for a long time.
