Chapter 227: Painting Sand and Gathering Rice

Cheng You's heart was beating so hard that Shi Wuqi was so worried that they were worried about telling them everything, it was deafening.

"So... that's it." His voice was trembling a little, "You are right."

What is he talking about...does he know what he is talking about?

What are Kisaragi-kun talking about again?

All of this made Aluan feel baffled. It was difficult for her to interpret this kind of conversation that spanned many things, even though she couldn't tell what those things were, she just felt absurd and sick.

"That is indeed a considerable degree of respect." Lord Ruyue said, "Okay, I recognize you."

"thank you……"

"What a mess." Yun Ge said disdainfully.

Lord Ruyue turned his gaze to him and said, "You don't understand this. Admiration and murderous intent are not in conflict. When you have a considerable degree of admiration for someone, it will indeed be easier for you to have murderous intent instead."

"What a mess." Yun Ge looked unhappy, "It's all nonsense. I have never been so disrespectful towards my late father."

"Blood relatives should be treated separately. There is no such feeling in admiring great men of different eras. To be honest, there may be jealousy, but it is not entirely jealousy. The image you admire comes from someone, so

Born as someone's everything, he and his abilities become your passive standard. When you are in the same arena, you will realize that it is possible for you to break it."

"Is this what is called deep love and deep hatred?" Shi Wuqi asked casually.

"It's very complicated. There are too many reasons. Because I can't pursue the goal I hope for no matter what, I start to hate the people who have brought such a goal to me. This is a kind of person, but it is also the person I think is the most stupid. There are very few of them, or

I don't reflect on myself, I only see the suffering I have experienced, and I abandon all talk of chance and talent. I just feel that hard work should lead to results - not to mention that some people have not put in equivalent efforts. However, Cheng Gongzi

Of course they are not among them. I saw these..."

Cheng You bowed cautiously, wondering whether he should accept this specious appreciation.

"You should want to kill me."

"yes."

"I want to replace it, and I believe that I will be able to make it watertight and seamless, so that my name and legend can extend infinitely in this world, and it will be even better. Is that so?"

Cheng You stopped talking. He almost felt that Lord Ruyue understood him better than he did. Those feelings and words that even he didn't understand were clearly explained by her. She understood them thoroughly, opened them up, and placed them in broad daylight.

Down, it's clear.

"At that time, who is Cheng You?"

Cheng You shook his head, as if to deny the hidden meaning of Lord Ruyue's words.

"A name is just a name, a name is just a symbol."

"Isn't what you are pursuing just the symbol brought by the three words 'Ruyue-kun'?"

"The value is different."

"Value?" She frowned, as if she was dissatisfied with the word. "What's the difference? Does the name Six Paths Impermanence mean it is superior to others? I don't think so."

"No...that's not what I meant." Cheng You lost his sharp tongue again, "You are one of a kind."

"Yes. You know the truth clearly - everyone is unique. Therefore, the pride in your bones believes that you can already be compared with me, so you have this murderous intention. Except for the young in the nest, no one would want to see you.

Come out to yourself in the mirror, even if it's just a statement. Confidence is always a good thing, but... I don't think you have this ability."

"I know."

"That's why you didn't show your murderous intent. But, I forced the seed to germinate, right?"

"..."

They all saw that he wanted to refute, but didn't know where to start. Ru Yuejun's every word was so precise that everything Cheng You said at this time seemed like sophistry. So he gave up wisely, reorganized his emotions, and still smiled.

.

"So, I want to ask you for advice."

"But I have nothing to teach you." Lord Ruyue glanced at Dai Luan, "Even my disciples, I haven't taught them anything. And teaching you anything will not do me any good. In other words

By the way..."

She paused and moistened her throat. She had never spoken so much to unfamiliar people.

"Are you going to replace Kisaragi-kun with what Kisaragi-kun has taught you?"

This is a familiar sentence pattern, and Mu Wan trembled. When used here, it is indeed indescribably appropriate. It’s just that people who understand it feel a sense of chilling fear all over their bodies when they hear it. Even if they don’t

I can't tell what I'm afraid of.

Cheng You's attitude was very firm.

"I'm willing to accept any advice you have."

"Isn't Kisaragi-kun just a name? It can be anyone." Kisaragi-kun said lightly, as if Chengyou didn't understand what she meant, or she wasn't prepared and didn't expect him to understand, "Where's my name? I

I have no name, and I don’t remember my own name. I am Kisaragi-kun. Who was I before Kisaragi-kun, and who was Kisaragi-kun after me? I don’t care, Jianghu doesn’t care, and neither does that Lord.”

"I care! I have come this far for you!" He suddenly became excited.

"You don't care. You only care about Lord Kisaragi." Lord Kisaragi responded.

"But I have spent so much time, money and energy, and it doesn't just stop at seeing you and talking to you. I have paid enough, but I have never received anything in return!"

Lord Kisaragi turned around.

"It's not for me. You should do it for yourself. If you are trying to get something from the beginning, it can indeed be called a clear purpose. It's just that you personally limit the purpose to this level. Your ambition has already changed along the way.

It’s just that it’s so natural that you accept it happily without feeling anything wrong.”

"At least..." Cheng You stretched out his hand, "At least give me a chance to discuss with you!"

The person in front of him turned his head slightly, with some hesitation.

"...discuss?"

"Don't be fooled by him!" Dai Luan was anxious, "Who knows what bad ideas he has!"

Lord Ruyue didn't say anything, just walked to the door and opened it. They all thought she was leaving, so they all moved closer to that side. But she didn't. There was a person standing outside the door, and she let him in. Look at the man leaning against her

The posture by the wall seems to have been waiting and listening for a long time.

It's Shui Wujun.

"I'm really sorry, everyone." Ruyue-kun apologized, "I thought it would be quick, so I asked my colleague to wait outside the door. It seems that it took too long, so I'd better ask him to come in and sit down."

There were heavy swords hanging on Mizumu-kun's slender figure, and he slightly bumped against the door frame when he came in. When he walked into the house, the small shop seemed even more cramped. Compared with the last time he walked in Kuiyun Mountain,

When we met, he didn't change at all. He still had a straight face, as if someone owed him eighteen hundred silver ingots or gold.

Lord Ruyue continued: "It counts as asking him to do a notarization. Lord Shuiwu also heard it..."

Then she turned around and said to Cheng You happily: "What do you want to compete with me?"

"Hua, Wu, Poison." He spat out.

Shui Wujun spoke for the first time after meeting, but there was no emotion in his words.

"You came prepared."

"Maybe."

"How about one year?" Ruyue said.

"Of course there is no problem." Things went so smoothly that Cheng You felt incredible. He then asked, "What are you betting on?"

"Bet what you want. Your name, and my name."

Shanhai and the others don't understand what Lord Ruyue means.

Cheng You said: "No. Your name is much more valuable than mine..."

"It's just a name. As I said, there is no high or low value."

"Since you think it's okay."

"Then let's start now."

"Now?"

Ru Yuejun stopped replying, she passed by Shui Wujun and disappeared into the deserted streets. Shui Wujun did not look back, not even when Cheng You rushed out. Dai Luan could not stand any longer.

, she also ran over, and Shui Wujun glanced at her. When he came to the door, Dai Luan chased him out and looked, but he couldn't find the shadow of the two people anywhere, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

This scene reminded her of her "parting" with Lord Ruyue in Jintong Township.

They might meet again, but Dai Luan was unwilling to do so. She walked back gloomily and couldn't help but complain:

"What the hell is this? And what's the point of betting on names? If they are monsters, they can be made into shikigami, but human names have no value... and have no effect. The six paths are impermanent.

The title carries countless responsibilities, which he cannot bear at all! Will Yama Demon recognize him? Moreover, how can Lord Ruyue give it away?"

Shan Hai and the others also wanted to know these questions. Especially Mu Wan, she felt that she had watched a terrible play. The script was fine, but the actor was not. The reason may be that she had limited affection for him.

"He still doesn't know what he wants." Mu Wan commented, "He just wants to prove himself."

"He may have lived too long. Ordinary people's minds will be worn away over a long period of time."

For some reason, the two girls glanced at Shi Wuqi, which made him a little dissatisfied.

"Hey, don't compare me to that kind of person." He patted the dust left on the wall, "Okay, let's get down to business. May I ask why Shui Wujun... appears here?"

Shan Hai and the others did not dare to speak. Yun Ge had been watching, and he was not blind. Shui Wujun also knew who he was. They were worried that if they talked about this matter, the calm scene would become even more chaotic. They had to comfort them.

Myself, keeping silent is not deception, and shutting up at the right time can be considered a good deed - at least now it will not cause unnecessary trouble.

"I know Lord Ruyue is here, and I came to see her. We have finished discussing our matters, and she said, I can leave it to you."

"..."

What kind of work did Lord Ruyue take over for them without permission?

"In exchange..." he continued, "I need to tell him something."

Shui Wujun raised his hand and pointed at Yun Ge. The latter's expression was quite calm, but Shan Hai couldn't help but sweat.

At this time, the two apprentices suddenly came back. They were frustrated. One held a paper bag in one hand, and the other held a wine gourd in the other. They said:

"I bought some wine, but I really don't have any chicken. They have two sesame seed cakes left, so you can make do with it..."

Yun Ge waved his hand and told them to put it wherever they wanted. The younger one saw the blood on his hand and immediately stepped forward.

"How did you do this? Oops, the table is broken. Oops, senior brother, please bring some water, I will go find gauze. How did you do this? Could it be that you..."

"It has nothing to do with us -" Mu Wan looked embarrassed, "The matter is complicated. But we also feel that bandaging him first is the most important thing."

The store was noisy, but Yun Ge didn't notice it. He didn't feel any pain at all, he just stared into Shui Wujun's eyes and asked:

"What do you want to say? You say it first."

"Your Majesty..."

"Did you kill him?"

His tone was unexpectedly calm, but other people's hearts were in their throats, and even the two apprentices were at a loss.

"Yes." Shui Wujun admitted.

Yun Ge got the answer, whether it was consistent with what he imagined. He couldn't tell that he was impermanent, but he could guess it. With the help of the young man, he sat on the nearest stool, his hands shaking a little, as if he had finally

Feeling the pain, he took a few deep breaths and exhaled.

"Don't be angry..." Dai Luan said carefully.

"It's okay." He shook his head, "I know that he is doing business. I know... Although I should hate impermanence, I still can't hate it. Looking at your outfit, you should be Fusongfengdai·Shuiwujun

.You were the knifemaker that my father admired most during his lifetime, and I also admired you the most. But my respect may not be as deep as my father's. And I can only tinker with silver jewelry, and I have not inherited any other advantages."

"That's not what I'm talking about." Shui Wujun said without changing his expression, "This may be good news for you."

"Really? What great news that could be."

"Your father is not a bad person."
