Regarding how to deal with Chu An, Wei Changtian thought about it all night yesterday and found that he only had three choices.
One, let him go.
Two, murder.
Three, seize luck.
Since Chu An had no friendship with him, Wei Changtian ultimately rejected the first option.
This also means that he is bound to win the 1,500 system points and Chu An's divine beast of luck.
It’s just that you don’t necessarily have to “kill people” if you want to “seize the treasure”.
Wei Changtian could also just plunder Chu An's luck.
There are currently only two known ways to plunder luck.
The first one is just like robbing Ning Yongnian, Shen Ran and others of their luck before, they need to "take away" what they value most.
For example, Ning Yongnian, his goal is undoubtedly the world, so every time he foils his plan, he can seize part of his luck.
Shen Ran followed the path of literature. He wrote nine poems in a row at the Chunlong Poetry Society, which greatly affected his literary spirit and took away part of his luck.
Through this method, Wei Changtian was able to rob Chu An of all his luck without killing him.
But the problem is that Wei Changtian doesn't know what Chu An values most.
Qin He?
possible.
Perhaps by killing Qin He, he could plunder part of Chu An's luck.
But this is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse, and it is just my own guess, which may not be true.
Fortunately, besides this, there is another simpler "plundering method".
That was the beast of luck that directly killed Chu An.
Previously in Fengyuan, Wei Changtian had injured the Gu Eagle with the Moon Sword, and immediately plundered some of Bai Youheng's luck and earned several hundred system points.
From this point of view, killing the luck beast is also a way to plunder luck...
At first glance, this method is actually quite suitable for Wei Changtian's current situation.
You can capture the mythical beast and earn points without harming Chu An's life.
But the problem is that so far, it seems that only the Moon Sword in this world can hurt the beast of luck.
So, if Wei Changtian wants to get the "best of both worlds" through this method, he must use the Moon Sword again.
And this will undoubtedly bring him a lot of trouble.
Of course, if there is no other choice, Wei Changtian probably won't care about this "loss".
After all, compared to 1,500 system points and a divine beast of luck, the harm of using the Moon Sword again is probably not worth mentioning.
But now he has other choices.
In fact, this was exactly his initial plan——
That is direct killing...
After going round and round, after experiencing several hesitations and tangles, Wei Changtian made this decision ruthlessly.
And I don't know if it was because of guilt in his heart that he did not kill Chu An directly, but actually asked Zhang San to perform a "rescue" drama so that the former could go back and meet Qin He one last time.
To be honest, it might be better for both Qin He and Chu An not to see each other this time.
After all, this kind of torture from great joy to great sorrow, from hope to despair is undoubtedly extremely cruel.
But Wei Changtian still did it.
He himself didn't quite understand why he did this, but he could only say that it might give him some peace of mind.
There was a professional term for this kind of psychology in the past life, called "compensation effect".
In a football match, when the referee makes a wrong call, his subsequent calls will often be biased towards the side that was harmed by the wrong call.
In a relationship that has not yet ended, when one party makes an unfaithful act, his or her attitude towards the other party will suddenly become gentle and considerate.
These are all examples of the "compensation effect", and they are not much different from Wei Changtian's current psychology.
And this also means that no matter what decision Wei Changtian makes now, in his subconscious he still thinks that what he did is wrong.
You know it's wrong, but you still do it.
When interests conflict with right and wrong, everyone's choices may be different.
And this may be the complexity of human nature...
...
...
Youshi, Zhuwu Inn.
From early morning to dusk, Qin He had been sitting in the front hall for a whole day.
She didn't eat anything all day and just drank a few water.
Seeing her like this, the clerk in the store had tried to persuade her many times.
But Qin He just shook his head every time and whispered the same sentence.
"I'm not hungry."
"..."
Just like that, after several attempts to persuade her to no avail, the guys gave up, but every once in a while they would take the food in front of her away, take it to the kitchen to heat up, and then bring it back.
In one day, these plates of green vegetables and a bowl of white porridge have been heated back and forth countless times.
But Qin He never glanced at them, staring at the open courtyard door in the distance all the time.
Tears welled up in her eyes again as she looked at the constant flow of pedestrians on the street outside the courtyard, at the vendors carrying loaders, the children running around, and the peasant women carrying bamboo baskets.
Then, a familiar carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
Standing up with a bang, Qin He recognized that it was Wei Changtian's carriage.
She subconsciously wanted to run over, but stopped after hesitating.
Qin He was afraid that if he asked too many questions, Wei Changtian would be impatient, so he suppressed the worry in his heart and stood there helplessly.
But the next moment, when she saw the man getting out of the car...
"Chu, Chu An..."
His eyes widened as he breathed rapidly, and tears instantly poured out of his eyes.
Qin He murmured in disbelief, and immediately ran to the courtyard door desperately.
"Plop!"
Not paying attention to the threshold under her feet, she fell awkwardly onto the bluestone pavement, with traces of blood oozing from her palms.
However, Qin He didn't care about this. He just staggered up and continued running towards the man with disheveled hair.
At this moment, the man was also running towards her.
"Chu An!!"
"Qin'er!!"
Amid two calls full of joy and excitement, the two figures finally hugged each other tightly on the path in the bamboo forest, and the afterglow of the sunset was golden and gentle.
Although less than a day had passed since last night's "separation", this day seemed as long as ten years, and both of them had countless things to say to each other.
However, Qin He and Chu An didn't say anything more. They hugged each other tremblingly for a moment, then turned around and knelt down in front of Wei Changtian, who had come closer.
"Thank you, sir!"
"Woo woo woo, thank you so much, sir!"
"We will never forget your life-saving grace!"
"woo woo woo woo......."
Qin He's face was full of tears, and Chu An's expression was extremely sincere.
The two of them just knelt in front of Wei Changtian and kowtowed heavily, not caring even if their foreheads were already red.
It can be seen that their gratitude to Wei Changtian cannot be more genuine.
As for Wei Changtian...
"Mr. Chu, Miss Qin, please get up quickly."
"I'm just doing it casually, you don't have to be like this..."
His expression was calm and he said some polite words.
There was nothing wrong with Wei Changtian's reaction, but he inadvertently turned slightly sideways, as if he was deliberately avoiding the direction where the two people were kneeling.
