It was just past the hour, so now was clearly a safe time for the trial.
Cheng Shi was determined to verify the rules the doctor had mentioned, so he walked down the mountain again. This time he did not ask for anyone to accompany him, but because he was worried about this fate weaver who had committed chaotic acts in the past, the only believer in "Order" on the scene volunteered to accompany Cheng Shi down the mountain.
On the way down the mountain, Li Wufang kept looking at Cheng Shi vaguely. Cheng Shi noticed it, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he was also quietly looking at the investigator.
The fact that Li Wufang from the "future" joined the Destined Ones had a big impact on Cheng Shi. At the moment, he didn't know this believer in "Order", so as time went by, he inevitably developed a certain curiosity about him.
The same is true for Li Wufang. As for why he is curious about Cheng Shi, it is naturally because...
When he was transferred to another timeline, another fortune-teller named Cheng Shi unceremoniously issued a series of orders to him. Although he did not know why the other party was so familiar with him and why he had the courage to arrange a hunter who was stronger than him to do this and that, he had to admit that the orders issued by this fortune-teller always hit the nail on the head and solved all the problems they faced.
Because of this, he suddenly found that he did not seem to reject the feeling of being arranged by others. After all, obeying orders was also a kind of [order].
The investigator also believed in fate and felt that this seemed to be some kind of guidance from destiny.
So he became more and more curious and began to look at Cheng Shi. This was not the first time he looked at him, but it was the first time he looked at the original Cheng Shi.
Halfway through the journey, Cheng Shi couldn't stand the other person's gaze any longer. He stopped and asked with a half-smile:
"Investigator, what did you find?"
"You don't seem to believe in fate."
"???" This sentence confused Cheng Shi. He looked at Li Wufang suspiciously, wondering if the other party was cheating him.
Li Wufang coughed twice and showed his keen observation skills to Cheng Shi with a strange expression.
"You were very cautious when going down the mountain, and only took the path you had walked before. However, some forks were clearly closer and the end was visible at a glance, with no danger at all. But you... instinctively took the first step, but then pretended nothing had happened and walked back.
Your subconscious mind guides your direction, but you refuse to move towards the unknown, even if this unknown is only for a short period of time.
So I said you don’t believe in [fate], because [fate] is full of unknowns.”
Hearing this, Cheng Shi sneered.
"Investigator, don't tell me you don't know that fate is predetermined. I only follow the predetermined path."
"Of course I know, but the established will never change. If you firmly believe in the established, you won't subconsciously want to take a shortcut when you see a fork in the road. I'm more inclined to believe that you are seeking benefits and avoiding harm. You take the established path not because you like it, but because you feel the 'safety' of it."
"......" Cheng Shi choked. He glanced at Li Wufang with a slightly gloomy look and frowned, "Who are you?"
"As you can see, this is Inspector Li Wufang." Li Wufang took off his leather jacket again, "Sorry, it's too hot."
"......"
Cheng Shi was numb. He felt that the other party was showing off his muscles, a physical show, and his eccentric personality was indeed a little bit like his own.
But why does he have such a unique understanding of fate?
"Do you believe in fate?"
"Well, whether you want to reconfirm whether I am the original me or just ask this question, the answer is:
Yes, I believe.
Cheng...Brother, I have always believed that the world is made up of the interweaving of the fates of all living beings. Therefore, only under the guidance of [fate] can we better integrate into this world. "
"?" Cheng Shi laughed, his laughter full of ridicule, "Then why did you choose [Order]? Do you also like blasphemy like... uh, like some blasphemers?"
"Blasphemy? No, no, no, I never blaspheme. I respect them very much."
Cheng Shi's face immediately turned cold: "The God Worshipping Society or the Advent Sect?"
Li Wufang was stunned, then shook his head and said:
"Neither. My understanding of them may be a little different.
I always feel that the world has its own rules, but these rules are not perceived and understood by everyone. Their coming undoubtedly makes these abstract rules concrete. So as long as everyone chooses a belief, they can live well in this world. This is why I respect them. They make the world simple. "
"......" Cheng Shi was unable to follow the investigator's thoughts for a moment, pointing at the ground under his feet and saying with a mixture of laughter and tears, "You call this trial simple?"
"The current trial is certainly not easy, because [Time] blocks the guidance of [Destiny], leaving us without a trace. Fortunately, you and An Shenxuan are both His believers. As long as I get close to you, I will be able to feel His guidance again."
Cheng Shi had never been so speechless before. Since the other party was telling the truth, he couldn't tell for a moment whether the investigator was discussing his own destiny or flattering him...
This means that if you are His believer, your ranking will definitely not be low.
"It sounds like you really care about [Fate], so if that's the case, why didn't you choose [Fate] but [Order]?"
“Because… [Fate] can’t make people believe in fate. If I want people to believe in my point of view, I must first be credible.
