Chapter 494 492. Swaying candlelight (please vote for 4k~)

After sparring with his senior sister, Shen Tianyi once again asked Ma En for a few questions as usual to solve the difficulties he encountered in boxing and spiritual practice. Then he followed his senior sister to the library to study, and finally approached Ma En

In the early morning, I returned to my place to wash up, lay down and get ready to have a good rest and face the new day.

But not long after the young man lay down on the bed, and just when his consciousness became slightly blurred, he heard several dull knocks on the door that penetrated into his ears like passing through a thick fog, and gently woke him up.

.

The young man raised his eyelids and got up in a daze. Being so trapped, he did not notice that the moonlight outside the window was particularly bright tonight, nor did he notice the strangeness that filled the air.

And when he opened the door, it took him several seconds to see clearly the figure standing outside.

It was his master Ma En.

Before he could be surprised, Ma En asked:

"May I come in?"

The young man nodded repeatedly and immediately made way for Ma En to enter the house. At the same time, the scene in the house that could not be seen behind him became a little clearer, but he was so groggy that he could not notice this at all.

When Ma En sat down face to face with him in the room, the young man realized something was wrong. Why did the master suddenly come over after he fell asleep? Was there something particularly urgent?

After Ma En sat down opposite him, he asked calmly:

"I noticed that you recently collected some information about the Skywalker?"

The young man was not surprised that Ma En would know this, because he had no understanding of the abnormal world at all. No matter what Ma En did, he would not be particularly surprised.

So Shen Tianyi just nodded:

"Yes, Master, after you mentioned her to me, I really want to know what kind of person she is."

Ma En asked:

"What do you think?"

The young man showed a thoughtful look:

"In the beginning, I actually heard about Shenxiao's current situation and the conflict between the Federation and her. At that time, I felt that the battle between Shenxiao and the Federation was a bit like the warlord brothers fighting for power in the Southern Federation.

"But after I saw more detailed information, I felt that my initial thoughts were somewhat misunderstood. This matter seemed to be more intense and bloody than what they mentioned, right?"

The young man raised his head and looked at Ma En with questioning eyes.

Ma En nodded slightly and said:

"Yes, you should have learned that I once participated in the battle in the Salvation Alliance following Shen Xiao. At that time, I was hiding my strength to secretly help Shen Xiao, and I have to admit that I did want to secretly rescue Shen Xiao.

Xiao's idea, although in fact my probability of success is not high.

"But unfortunately, I was forced to sign a contract with the Federation some time ago, and I can no longer provide any help to Shenxiao. But now Shenxiao's situation is that she is still controlled by the Federation.

"I think the information you obtained also mentions the reason for the duel between Shenxiao and the Federation. What do you think?"

The young man frowned slightly:

"The information actually lists the reasons why the Federation and Shenxiao took action. I always feel that something is wrong."

Ma En smiled:

"Of course you will feel something is wrong, because they are confusing right and wrong. I can come up with hundreds of excuses to deal with Shenxiao even without looking at it. It is especially easy to make up the reasons for attacking a person with such abilities.

"Worries, suspicions, fears, they have countless reasons for taking action, but if the Federation really doesn't have its own thoughts, it can definitely come up with better responses than it does now.

“When the Federation takes action with such swiftness and no room for mercy, it means that they have no idea of ​​solving the problem through other means, and they don’t care if their judgment is wrong.

"Because the reasons you can see are all excuses they made up after they imprisoned Shenxiao."

When the young man heard this, he showed a look of sudden realization. During this period, he was indeed a little entangled in the "love and hate" between Shenxiao and the Federation. He always felt that there was something wrong with what his senior sister said.

When Ma En said this, he immediately noticed the violation.

"That's it." The young man also showed a thoughtful expression.

Maan went on to say:

"At that time, I actually didn't expect the federation to take action, otherwise Shenxiao would not have lost, so at the beginning I really just wanted to get in touch with Shenxiao by joining the Salvation Alliance, and lurk inside it secretly.

"But when I first joined the Salvation Alliance, the Federation also launched a siege on all members of the Salvation Alliance who were in the federal system at that time in order to imprison Shen Xiao, and they had no intention of letting me go.

"So maybe I can't say what Shenxiao is like, but I can tell you from my own personal experience that the Federation is an extremely ruthless organization, and it is not an exaggeration to even call it evil.

"At least its face is extremely dark. Of course, this is not its entire face, and the world still needs such a bad organization, otherwise Shenxiao would have confronted it head-on.

"Because there are many organizations in the world that are far worse than the Federation, so even though it is a pity, strictly speaking, its existence does have a lot of positive effects on the world. I think this is why Shenxiao has never thought of trying.

The reason for its disintegration is that these evil organizations include the guys who exposed my identity.

"Actually, although it was difficult for me to rescue Shen Xiao, I still did a good job of lurking within the federation. The reason why I was found by them some time ago was because an evil entity who wanted to deal with me exposed me."

"If he hadn't been in the Federation at this moment, I wouldn't be your master here."

The young man's expression became obviously gloomy after hearing this:

"I didn't expect the world to be so bad. I used to hope that the situation around me would be like that, but if I think about it carefully, if the entire world hadn't been like this, the Southern Federation wouldn't be what it is today."

At this moment, Shen Tianyi's mood became extremely heavy and uncomfortable. Ma En's words proved that the worry that had been lingering in the young man's heart from beginning to end could not be dissipated. The world behind the curtain was far darker than he imagined.

In addition to the resistance to the cold reality, the young man also felt strong weakness and exhaustion in his heart. Just imagining himself living in such a world made him feel a little depressed.

Ma En also saw the young man's mood at this moment, and immediately comforted him:

"But because of this, Shenxiao is so dazzling, and besides herself, there are many people with abilities who remain angry and dissatisfied with injustice and darkness, and they are members of the Salvation Alliance who follow Shenxiao.

"And you have to know that they are the most determined among these good people. There are many good people who have not made up their mind to risk their lives to fight, but still have kindness deep in their hearts.

"Although they are not at the forefront, they are also the pillars of support for those soldiers.

"There are many good people who have fought, are fighting, and will fight for justice."

Hearing these words, the young man's eyes became brighter when he looked at Ma En:

"And Master, you are also one of them."

Ma En raised his hand and waved:

"Due to the calculations of evil entities, I can no longer fight on the front line, but I will indeed try to do good things, such as raising kind-hearted children like you.

"If you were given a chance, would you choose to be someone like Shen Xiao?"

The young man did not expect Ma En to ask such a question, and fell into deep thought again, then shook his head slightly and said:

"I feel like I can't be that great. I'm far from that ability."

Ma En asked:

"What if you could do it?"

This question stopped the young man again, and he said with great hesitation:

"Then I will definitely stand up and fight against evil, but I really feel that I am not good at doing this kind of thing. Rather than fighting the bad guys, I hope to heal the good people who have been hurt.

"So I am actually particularly interested in alchemy. I want to become a doctor who can save lives and heal the wounded."

Ma En looked at him and nodded slightly and said:

"Then what if I say that there is an opportunity in front of you to help others right now?"

The young man looked at Ma En with some surprise and expectation and asked:

"Does master want me to cure diseases and save people?"

Obviously, the young man was a little excited about helping others, and was even a little eager to try it.

But Ma En shook his head slightly and then asked:

"No, it's not someone else who needs your help, it's me."

Shen Tianyi opened his mouth in surprise:

"Master?"

Ma En looked at him and asked:

"Will you help me?"

The young man was startled, but he nodded solemnly:

"Of course, as long as I can do good things, I will do it."

Ma En glanced out the window, and then said slowly:

"I just mentioned that there is a man behind the scenes who is dealing with me. In fact, I have some doubts that he will take advantage of our opportunity to recruit an apprentice to arrange for an undercover agent to be beside me. According to my investigation, this seems to be the case."

The young man had already thought of something, and his expression became a little unbelievable:

"Master, you mean senior sister..."

But what he didn't even expect was Ma En's reaction.
To be continued...
