Do gods like to destroy themselves?
This is the most obvious truth that Cheng Shi has summed up from past experience.
Of course, there is a more profound truth, that is, extreme piety must be blasphemy!
Otherwise, why would the [Sin of Desirelessness] blaspheme its master [Depravity] so greatly before dying, and even create a person without desires with its own hands?
Cheng Shi stared at the poison with a curious expression. After a moment of silence, he said:
"I see."
This is also what he learned from God. When you cannot give the other party an accurate answer, you might as well say "I know" to put the other party in a situation of "I don't know".
Cheng Shi undoubtedly grasped the essence of the idea, because Du Yao showed surprising understanding after hearing this.
Perhaps in her eyes, a god should be like Cheng Xianshi in his cold appearance. In the past, the image of the other players was too confusing, making her always unconsciously want to get closer, but now she has "demystified" the Weaver of Destiny.
It’s not because the mentality has changed, but because the desire has been taken away.
As Poison herself said, she is now just playing herself, the assassin lady who wants to get close to the Weaver of Fate.
Seeing that Du Yao was a little confused, Cheng Shi chuckled and said:
"That's fine. Only by letting go of desire can we see the truth behind the countless illusions in this world torn by desire.
Your information is very important to me. [Pollution] is indeed one of the mysteries of the universe. I will investigate it carefully when I have time later.
But now, I must focus on the Trial of Deception.
I have to figure out if He is a help I can enlist or an enemy I need to fight…”
Cheng Shi's voice became increasingly quiet, as if he was talking to himself, but he soon raised his head and smiled, "Also, don't take yourself too seriously. I directed you to meet Avros simply because Avros needed a distraction, and you happened to have the desire to merge your faiths.
This is a win-win situation and has nothing to do with what you see today.
Since you no longer have any desires in your heart, don't make it hard on yourself. Just enjoy the gentle warm breeze at the moment.
This is a rare moment of peace and quiet for you.”
Having said that, Cheng Shi turned around and walked away, heading straight towards the mound where Long Jing and Mi Lao Zhang were hiding.
Seeing this, the two clowns' expressions changed slightly.
It’s bad. It would be fine if I didn’t hear anything, but why did the real culprit come to my house?
Long Jing's eyelids twitched, and without saying a word, he dug a hole and left the scene. However, Zhang Jizu did not choose such an undignified way of leaving. He sighed lightly and stood there waiting to be caught in the act.
Cheng Shi came here just for the two of them. He knew they hadn't heard anything, so they wouldn't bring it up. His mind was in a mess, still trying to understand Draxilko's behavior. When he saw Old Zhang standing straight, he was slightly startled. He glanced at the mound next to him and said with a strange look on his face:
"What's the meaning?
Security attribute explosion?
Lao Zhang, you don't have to be so dedicated to your job. Seeing a mound of earth makes you feel like you're back in the cemetery. No one is watching you while you're standing guard?
You can't be asking me to praise you, right?"
As he spoke, Cheng Shi clapped his hands with a teasing look on his face, muttering, "Oh, you stand really well..."
Zhang Jiuzu's face turned dark, and his eyes almost disappeared in the shadows on his face.
But this time he didn't choose to fight back.
His heart was equally complicated because he felt the aura of death surrounding Cheng Shi and the poison.
The other party rang the bone bell again.
The clowns didn't know, but Zhang Jizu knew very well that the man behind the bone bell was not the benefactor in the Fishbone Hall, but the true God who bestowed this trial, [Fraud]!
After understanding the background of this trial, Zhang Jizu has been guessing what [fraud] is a metaphor for. At that time, he believed that [fraud] could save the world, and cooperated with [fraud] to deceive all the clowns. Now he felt that Cheng Shi's attitude towards this trial was quite intriguing, so he began to reflect on whether he had been deceived too.
But he had no evidence and was afraid that his "foolish actions" would cause harm, so he was in a dilemma.
He was wondering whether he should confess to Cheng Shi, but Cheng Shi saw this dilemma and thought that it was Mi Lao Zhang who had broken down.
Cheng Shi stopped teasing the other party and thought for a moment before throwing the question about the poison to Lao Zhang and asked:
"What exactly is desire?"
Zhang Jizu was stunned. He turned around, walked around the mound, looked at Duyao who was standing there motionless, and shook his head.
“People’s hearts are different and it’s hard to summarize.
What happened to the poison?
Cheng Shi was quite disgusted with this perfunctory talk. He curled his lips and said:
"I lost to me in a rock-paper-scissors game with 100 S-rank items. I couldn't accept my defeat and forced myself to stand there pretending time had stopped in order to soothe my wounded pride.
Tsk, it's so hard to collect foreign debts these days. There are 200 items in total that haven't been collected yet. Old Zhang, do you think we can collect them all in our lifetime?"
Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes, glanced at the other person coldly and said, "It's not impossible to collect it after death."
“…”
Are you really going to use the grave to pay off the debt?
Cheng Shi couldn't laugh anymore.
He checked the time, frowned slightly, and asked, "Why haven't Zhen Xin and the others returned yet? Could it be that the two of them couldn't even find an NPC?"
Zhang Jizu did not respond to this. He pondered for a moment and decided to test Cheng Shi's attitude towards "fraud" in order to confirm his guess.
"Don't you want to talk about stupid jokes?"
"?" Cheng Shi's expression froze, and he pretended to be dumb for a second, "What's wrong with stupid play?"
"Poison told me, I know everything."
