298. Rat King

Having said this, Lin paused for a moment, as if he was dreaming back to the past. Even though he had experienced those bloody scenes, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless when thinking about them now. "No matter how you prepare yourself mentally in advance and give more advice,

And take precautions. The moment those Agor people come into contact with the hilt of the knife, they will no longer be who they are and become wild beasts that have lost their senses and only have the desire to prey."

Lin sighed, "They are beasts, but I can't find a more suitable word to describe them. If they were ordinary creatures, they would at least be afraid of pain. But no matter how they attack those holding 'tusks', they will still

As if he couldn't feel the pain at all, he rushed towards all moving objects in sight, whether they were living or dead objects, madly venting his desire for destruction and predatory appetite. But the strangest thing: that is, no matter who it is, no matter who it is,

, when I lost my mind, I just held it, and seemed to have forgotten the original purpose of pulling it out.”

When Jiang Yan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his back, "You mean, the sword was never unsheathed? But if there is no such weapon, how can a person who has lost his mind vent his destructive desires?"

Lin looked at him, his eyes making Jiang Yan go crazy. "I think you should understand that the lack of weapons does not prevent a person from destroying anything." Hearing this, Jiang Yan subconsciously looked at his fists and touched them with his hands.

Touch your own mouth - the teeth inside are the most primitive and effective means for inhuman beasts to destroy something.

"As you said, the knife was never pulled out. Even people who have received weapons training, when they touch it and lose their mind, will never think that they are still holding a weapon in their hands - even if they are holding the weapon

Just like an arm wielder, the same goes for a warrior whose every move is engraved in his brain and muscles.

"Just holding on to the handle of the knife tightly, using the most primitive means to roar and attack everything around. Every time we tried, we had to control them with my magic and knock the knife out of their hands. Only then

Give up. When the knife was taken away, we saw that their palms were already full of blood seeping out from nowhere. When they regained their senses, they couldn't stop crying. They said that they seemed to see something during the time when they lost their senses.

I remember something, but I can’t remember it.”

"That's all I know about that knife." This old and frightening memory was finally completed, and Lin felt a lot more relaxed. "There are many more friendships and stories between me and that person, of course.

That's another topic. After we parted, we made an agreement to respond to each other's requests. If someone comes with a token, we will try our best to help. I have troubled him a lot in the future, but he really wants my help.

When he did something, he was already like this."

After hearing this old story, the atmosphere was so heavy that the two of them could not speak for a while. After a long time, Hodel finally asked, "So, do you know anything about the Taiyi and the tragedy of the Feng Demon family that Jiang Shao mentioned?

Any other inside stories?”

Lin gently nodded, "If what Jiang Yan saw was not fabricated by someone with intentions, then I'm afraid Taiyi is indeed a member of the Feng Mo family. Their clan lives in seclusion, even in the Eastern Kingdom. It is extremely closed. All year round, only the clan leader and the young master are open to the outside world.

We have some understanding, and even less contact. The current owner of that building is an unscrupulous person, but he also has a quite bad temper. If it were him, he would track down the details of the people around him, and then do some unreasonable things.

It’s not that things are unimaginable.”

Hearing what Lin said, Jiang Yan finally came to his senses, "So, you know everything?"

"I'm not a God, and on this earth, I'm afraid God is not omniscient and omnipotent. Naturally, I don't 'know everything' as you said." Lin stroked his beard, "I probably know why you were angry when you came.

But you should at least ask the question clearly."

When Jiang Yan heard this, some of the concerns and anger that had been dismissed could not help but rise again. "I think the fanged clown had been to Longmen during the Requiem Festival, and Taiyi's murder was probably through his hands. After Taiyi was killed

Later, the powerful person you mentioned was not satisfied with my investigation results, and turned to pursue the responsibility of the Feng Mo clan, which led to the genocide."

"After that, the descendant of the Feng Mo family and the fanged clown who asked for your help came to Longmen, but for some unknown reason, she was unable to find you. And for some reason, you also entrusted me to ask me to take her

Bring it to you. And the beast we encountered was probably due to a combination of coincidences that led to our seeing its true form."

After listening to Jiang Yan's speculation, Lin nodded and admitted, "I basically agree with your speculation, so what is your problem?"

"I can't understand!" Jiang Yan's emotions finally broke out, and he poured out his questions along with all the grievances he had felt over the day:

"Since you know that the real Fang Clown is in Longmen, why don't you take action? Now that you know that it was the Fang Clown that indirectly caused the Feng Mo family to be exterminated, even if the Feng Mo family is a group of people who have nothing to do with you,

Why don't you show more indignation? Why don't you use some means to make those who are inhumane taste the evil consequences they have committed?! To be more extreme, if you had known that the fanged clown was at Longmen during Requiem Day, why didn't you try to do something about it?

Stop this as soon as possible!!”

"Why!!!"

However, faced with Jiang Yan's questioning, Lin remained unmoved. He quietly looked at Jiang Yan, whose eyes were bloodshot, and said calmly:

"Are your questions asking me or yourself?"

Thunder in the daytime.

Looking at Jiang Yan who was speechless, Lin replied unhurriedly. "I, Lin Gerui, Gray Lin, the Rat King of Longmen. Maybe it seems to you that I know a lot of things and have very strong power.

You can do a lot of things, avoid a lot of tragedies, and avoid a lot of regrets. But your anger prevents you from thinking clearly about some things that you originally understood, that is: when people have too much and stand too high, many things will be over.

I can’t tolerate your choice.”

"What signals do my actions represent? And what will these actions mean to outsiders? You may find it ridiculous, but I am the person surrounded by cobwebs. Whenever I act, the things that are affected are far beyond

A lot of people’s imaginations, including mine.”

Lin's tone was more like talking to himself than explaining. "Yes, I now know that the Fang Clown is really in Longmen now. When it comes to the Requiem Night, your tone sounds like you are very sure.

——If I had known at that time that it would lead to the current situation, there would be no need for you to criticize me for this matter, I would deal with it myself. But now its impact can no longer be solved completely quietly, and it is not clear that He is really

I can't act rashly if it will have an impact on Longmen's current situation. This is one of them."

"Secondly, handling those matters openly and honestly is Wei's business, not mine. I miss the Feng Mo family much more than you do. I wish I could hang up those executioners and beat them to death one by one with my own hands, but that won't do.

Even if it works, now is not the time."

"We are all angry, boy Shao, Jiang Shao, but what is different from me is that you are angry at the wrong target. What I hate is that I have to worry about this and that, and what you hate is the face.

You who can do nothing about all this."

"Speaking of which, Jiang Yan, I'm curious about one thing - why are you so angry?"

The confusion in Lin's mouth was not a disguise, "You clearly have no subjective reason to be angry about this: the Feng Mo Family is not your old friend, and the Fang Clown has no blood feud with you. To put it bluntly, you have almost nothing to do with this matter, the only one

The connection may be that you handled Taiyi's investigation, but you did a good enough job, didn't you? You gave the best answer you could. But now, you are still worried about it."

"I can only say that you are very good, but stupid to the core. The only explanation I can think of is your too simple sense of justice and your excessive sense of responsibility when the tragedy happened in front of your eyes. The Shen sisters were

In that way, this time too, when a tragedy happens in front of you, you subconsciously want to do something, and if you can't do it, you will blame yourself desperately for having nothing to do with it.

"You told me that you had been to the battlefield. I thought that people who have been to the battlefield would not have this trait, but you have such a strong sense of justice. Because of this, I said you are a very good person.

, but you are stupid here:

"You don't even have a reason to fight for yourself, which makes you incomplete in some things."

Lin's tone was full of regret, "As I get older, I can't help but want to help when I see people like you, but you can't even think about yourself. How should I help you? I wanted to take advantage of this.

This is an opportunity for you to try that knife. If it works, it will not only give you a powerful help, but also fulfill the long-cherished wish of an old friend. Now I have given up this plan."

"People like you who can't understand yourself don't deserve power far beyond your own. What's even more ridiculous is that you actually want to-"

"That's enough!" It was Hodel. He punched the table, and the overturned tea set was shattered on the floor. "Why do you say that to him? He is at least a good person, a more pure person than most people, but

You want to pursue some ordinary things and stay away from those good people who are beyond your control and get angry when you see someone suffering a tragedy! And what have you done? You just put this person who has not yet understood who he is, according to your

Think about it, do something that you call good for him and help him - you are worse than a fucking robber, kidnapper, or even a fucking kidnapper!"

Hearing this, Lin was silent for a long time. "Yeah, I'm worse than a fucking kidnapper. I hope he can figure it out and don't get kidnapped in a daze next time."

After saying that, Lin stood up and walked out of the house. It wasn't until he stepped out of the door that Jiang Yan spoke.

"……nausea."

"Oh, yes, it's disgusting." Lin laughed at himself, "Do you know what the Rat King is? The Rat King is a group of rats, a group of disgusting things that form a symbiosis under disaster and blood. I am

Rat King, I am in it, I can't escape, but I know who I am, what I should do, and why I do it."

After that, Lin Yang walked away. In just a few blinks, the entire teahouse was empty, and then he suddenly remembered -

These tea guests, no matter how noisy they were, did not even glance at them, nor did they remain silent for a moment.

Just like a mouse, chirping, chirping.
