I have two principles as a human being:
1. Never lie.
2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.
“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the ...
Hearing Li Jingming say this, Cheng Shi rarely stopped smiling and asked seriously, "Who is your enemy?"
"If there must be one... it's probably those who don't want to leave any traces in this world...
Perhaps I have retained their disgust for this world, but this disgust is also part of this world.
The game played by the gods will not be without an ending. When the end comes, no one knows what will happen to us.
I am not a pessimist, but I am not optimistic either. I don’t think this world will continue to exist.
Therefore, I am not practicing my own [Memory] path just to do some useless work to impress myself. I often wonder, what if... "
At this point, Li Jingming's momentum stagnated, and he set up a magic circle around him and Cheng Shi to block out the sound, as if trying to cover up his mistake.
"If there is someone like me who is willing to do something for this world, willing to face their gaze and resist the oppression of the gods, perhaps everything I know can help him. In this way, wouldn't I be able to leave behind a 'life' in Yunye Temple that will be admired by future generations, just like my ancestors?"
"......"
Cheng Shi was stunned, his mood was complicated.
The moment the Dragon King started to set up the magic circle, he even thought that he was going to be pulled into some organization again, but he didn't expect to hear such words.
This is the second time Li Jingming has shared his will.
The Dragon King is...seriously?
Cheng Shi was slightly stunned.
With your thoughts, isn't it a pity not to join the Firebringer?
If the founder of Firebringer is also one of the top players, there is no way he would not pull you in when he feels your sincerity. "He" can't reject you with the lame excuse of opposing beliefs like Zhen Xin did.
No, why would I think of Zhen Xin! ?
It is impossible that the Firebringer was founded by Zhen Xin!
Cheng Shi shook his head in fear, and then asked with some guesswork: "I'll ask you a small question that doesn't count as an exchange. If you don't want to answer, forget it. The ancestor you mentioned..."
"Oh, I'm going to join the army. When the country is in trouble, every citizen has a share of responsibility. He threw down his whisk and picked up his gun.
So sorry, I just told a little lie. It's not that Yunye Temple is still popular. It's just that the popularity of this small temple in the mountains was cut off during that turbulent era.
My master's master took refuge at this time and read the records of the ancestors. He was moved by the legend of Yunye Temple and chose to stay and inherit this little-known temple.
So, I am not actually a direct descendant of the temple..."
"......"
Cheng Shi was quite moved when he heard this, but this emotion was not because of what the Taoist priest of Yunye Temple had done, but because the way the Dragon King told history was so charming that people couldn't help but want to delve deeper into it.
He is indeed a believer in [Memory]. Whether it is remembering memories or sharing memories, he can be regarded as the best among players.
【Memory】God’s choice, truly worthy of the name.
This mutual understanding made Cheng Shi finally understand why the Dragon King had such a good reputation and why the big cat had a good relationship with such a person.
But even if what the Dragon King said was true, he would not gain everyone's trust because not everyone is a fire bearer, or rather, only a very small number of people are fire bearers.
There are many people who want to protect their own interests, but there are very few people who want to protect what is truly beautiful.
People are only afraid that being overly remembered will cause problems of one kind or another, so even someone like the Dragon King probably doesn't have many real friends.
After all, even believers in [Order] are not liked by everyone.
"So I am even more confused. Since you are so determined to follow the path of [Memory], why would you think of pretending to be someone else?" Cheng Shi frowned and said, "[Fraud]... To put it bluntly, the God of Fun does not have a good reputation. The way you pretend to be a person with memory can easily make people associate you with... that unlucky thing. This is not in line with your original intention, Dragon King."
After hearing this, Li Jingming smiled. He felt that his sharing finally earned a bit of sincerity from the other party.
"Don't think of me as so noble. I've said that remembering is my habit, and those so-called things that sound noble are just my occasional fantasies outside of remembering.
I am a person who pleases myself first, and then a person who takes the ancestors as role models.
I have said that I am not a direct descendant of Yunye Temple, so I have never been noble from the beginning to the end.
Pretending to be someone else is just a way for me to collect more memories, and using the camouflage color of [Deception] is also to reduce more trouble.
A person who knows too much needs to retain some other means of deterrence besides [memory]. You and I are both people of this level, so I don’t need to explain this in detail.”
That's quite frank!
Cheng Shi smiled, and found this ungodly [fraudulent] colleague in front of him very interesting. He suddenly thought of a possibility, and after pondering for a moment, decided to make this heart-to-heart game even more heart-to-heart.
So he changed his attitude and told Li Jingming exactly what he meant by "era". When Li Jingming's eyes became more and more shocked by Cheng Shi's words, Cheng Shi dropped another bombshell.
“…and all the endings and openings of the above eras are related to a [Him] whom I cannot mention.”
Hearing this [*Him], Li Jingming's eyes narrowed, and he uttered two words solemnly:
