Chapter 242: Change of Mood
The entire ring was in chaos, with screams coming one after another.
"Bleeding! Bleeding! Quick! Get a doctor!"
I don't know who shouted first, and then someone left in a hurry.
The county magistrate also came over. He looked at Wang Youcai, who was unconscious and passed out, and glared at Jiang Yuzhi and Jiang Yuanwai, and said angrily, "If anything happens to Youcai, I will make you Jiang family pay!"
Jiang Yuanwai's face turned pale in an instant, and after anxiously glaring at Jiang Yu, he hurriedly chased after him to explain.
Everyone surrounded the county magistrate and Wang Youcai and left, leaving Jiang Yuzhi alone standing on the ring in silence.
At this moment, the flags next to him fluttered in the wind, carrying endless irony.
Jiang Yuzhi pursed her lips and murmured, "What a irony."
She looked down at her hands, then at the bloody red-lined spear, somewhat confused.
"Why did it miss?"
At that time, she had already made up her mind to die with Wang Youcai, and that strike almost used all her strength, so it was impossible for it to miss.
Thinking of the feeling of being hit at that moment, Jiang Yuzhi's face changed, and she raised her head and looked around.
But there were no other people around except those who were watching the show.
Not long after, a small arrow was imprinted in her eyes. She paused for a moment, bent down to pick it up, and looked at it with her eyes downcast, wondering what she was thinking.
On the other side, Lin Baoer, who had dodged in time, exclaimed, patted her chest, and let out a long breath.
Lin Zhishen glanced at her and said calmly, "Didn't you say that this was their destiny? Then why did you stop her from shooting?"
Yes, that little arrow was shot by Lin Baoer.
Lin Baoer frowned and sighed, "I didn't want to, but if she really killed Wang Youcai, she wouldn't be able to escape with the county magistrate's power in Weicheng."
Lin Zhishen saw through everything and said, "With her behavior, maybe she had already made up her mind to die with Wang Youcai?"
"But what about the Jiang family?" Lin Baoer looked up at him and frowned, "It's not worth it to sacrifice my life and the lives of my parents for such a person."
"But if you do this, not only will she not kill Wang Youcai, but she will also put herself and the Jiang family in a panic. Given how much the county magistrate values his son, he will definitely not let this matter go." Lin Zhishen said incisively: "In the end, she may still have to marry into the Wang family, and her attitude will be lower than before, and Mr. Jiang's family will have even less say." "
Besides, Miss Jiang has already torn her face with Wang Youcai. Do you think he will treat her well after she marries into the family? In the end, it will just be a waste of her life."
"Some people's courage is only for a moment. Maybe when she was on the stage, she was ready to die with Wang Youcai, but afterwards, for the sake of her parents and other people in the Jiang family, she may no longer have the courage she had before."
"Then I did something bad with good intentions?" Lin Baoer fell into self-blame and scratched her hair.
She didn't think too much, but just felt that if Jiang Yuzhi's shot really hit her, then she and the Jiang family would be completely finished.
So she intervened without thinking.
Seeing her like this, Lin Zhishen's expression softened. He took the initiative to touch her head and straightened her tangled hair. "On the other hand, you are not wrong. The county magistrate is wrong. He robbed and plundered without caring about public opinion. You are only thinking about Miss Jiang and her family."
"But sometimes the complexity of things is not just what we see. There are many invisible factors. But since this thing has been done, don't think about other things. It's better to see what will happen to the Jiang family in the future."
Lin Baoer nodded sadly.
She was just acting with passion and didn't consider all aspects of this matter. She was indeed careless.
[If I had known earlier, I would have asked Ah Shen's opinion first, and I wouldn't have been so reckless. 】
【I had said before that I would follow the will of heaven, but at the critical moment, I broke this taboo and started to interfere in other people's affairs. 】
【Oh, so annoying, I shouldn't have cared. 】
【That thief shouldn't have been caught, if he had left earlier, he wouldn't have encountered such a thing. 】
Lin Zhishen's hand on her head curled up, and he lowered his eyes and looked at her gently. After a while, he whispered: "Bao'er."
"Hmm?" Lin Bao'er looked up in confusion.
"Do you know why there are so many jealous knights in the martial arts world?"
Lin Baoer hesitated, "Because they want to get rid of harm for the people?"
Lin Zhishen nodded, not knowing whether it was true or not, "That's one aspect. On the other hand, they think that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. They think that with their kung fu, they should naturally help those who are weak and powerless. As a result, there are many forces in the martial arts world who hire hired killers and hired hired bailiffs."
"You also have that kind of heart."
Lin Zhishen looked at her apologetically, his tone soft, "Maybe my tone was not good just now, so you felt that you did something wrong. In fact, I just objectively analyzed all the possibilities. I have seen a lot of things in my travels. I have encountered many such things before, but I chose to stay out of it. Compared with you, I don't have that kind of kindness and goodness."
"I just feel troubled."
"Because once you intervene, all kinds of troubles will come one after another, so I became indifferent."
He sighed and said, "Sometimes I think, maybe it is because of this that I..."
I haven't found you for a long time.
Lin Zhishen looked at Lin Baoer steadily, with complicated emotions in his eyes.
Obviously, you were so determined at that time.
Thinking back to that time, all the reasons that happened to the two monks...
"Okay, I know Ah Shen is comforting me." Lin Baoer smiled at him obediently, "Don't worry, I won't blame myself for this."
"Like you said, let's wait and see what happens to them later. If that dog county magistrate really dares to do something that is abhorrent to both humans and gods, I don't mind intervening a second time."
Lin Zhishen chuckled, "Okay."
Just like that, the two decided to stay in Weicheng for a few more days, and then take the water route to the border. This was also a compromise made by Lin Baoer, otherwise the two might not be able to catch up with those caravans.
After this decision, there was a lot of extra time.
The martial arts competition that day caused a great uproar in the whole city. Some people felt sorry that Jiang Yuzhi didn't kill Wang Youcai, some people were worried about the Jiang family, and some people doubted Jiang Yuzhi's purpose...
But no matter which one, they all stood on the side of the Jiang family, and no one spoke for the county magistrate's office.
Until one day later, Si Gou suddenly came and said that Xiao Jiang had appeared and was now in the ruined temple.
