Soon, the picture unfolded.
In the scene, Su Liu and Lin Shu are explaining things.
Before leaving, Lin Shu asked, "City Lord, do you want me to be myself or stick to my duties?"
Su Liu didn't think much about it and said, "Be yourself."
Lin Shu smiled and went to Pin Village without any disguise.
Afterwards, it only took a short time for Lin Shu to decide to implement the plan to destroy the village. She seemed to know that Su Liu was watching her. Every time she killed someone, she listed that person's crimes.
Most people in the village were guilty of crimes like "greed," "ignorance," and "lust." However, when Lin Shu killed some of the abducted Omegas, she judged them for crimes like "selfishness," "murder," and "accomplice." Looking up at the sky, she explained, "It's useless to save them. They already don't want to live. Even if we save them, they'll commit suicide. Sooner or later, they'll kill themselves."
After killing almost everyone, Lin Shu lit a fire and burned Pin Village to ashes.
The end of the picture.
On the ashes, Lin Shu stood leaning against a water tank. She lowered her head slightly and looked at the ground. Slowly, slowly, she smiled with relief, like a naughty child.
Deep down at the bottom of the tank, a little Omega, who had never been bathed in sunlight until his death, lay silently on his back in that filthy corner like a rag doll...
After reading the "Revelation of Disaster", Su Liu fell into deep thought.
He finally understood what Lin Shu's smile meant before he left.
This was a carnival of personal heroism. Although it was neat and tidy, it was also filled with a sense of desolate tragedy, which Su Liu did not like.
"If you feel upset, you might as well get a fortune-teller," Qi Fengling suggested.
So Su Liu told a fortune.
The hexagram is written very clearly, yet somewhat unclear. The interpretation can be summed up in four words: "Enlighten your mind and see your nature."
This is a warning to Su Liu to ask himself: Did he choose to do this based on his momentary likes and dislikes, enjoying the pleasure of playing with and controlling the life and death of others, or was it really for justice?
This is the same question as the one asked by Lin Shu.
If there were Su Liu's children in the village, Su Liu could certainly kill them all in order to avenge her father, because as a mother, she could do so, but she was a king, and a king could not do that.
What caused the entire village to become like this? Greed? Ignorance? Or debauchery?
It is undeniable that these are part of the reason, but the main reason is that Wang did not do well enough.
"This village is so strange. From a distance, it looks like a Chinese character "品" (a character in Chinese). Its geographical location is also in an area prone to earthquakes. It seems that if we slightly change the feng shui, we can use the power of nature to easily wipe them out," Su Liu drew the terrain he saw in advance on paper.
"Pin family? The Pin family was a great noble family two hundred years ago. Later, they secretly worked for the king and disappeared from the public eye," Qi Fengling glanced at them.
"Is it possible that this Pin Village is the king's experimental site?" Su Liu asked Qi Fengling to go to Dang Xia with the question overnight.
Half an hour later.
Qi Fengling came back with Dang Xia's answer.
——Hincun is indeed the king’s work.
Two hundred years ago, the king was also looking for the answer to "Why is the human trafficking in human society rampant?" At that time, the Pin family was a new noble family. There were only two people in the family, a pair of brothers. They did not want to become vampires and were willing to use their limited lives to serve the king.
So, he took the risk himself and recruited some kind volunteers to develop Pin Village.
Lack of information, no culture, low morals, self-sufficiency, material poverty...
In less than twenty years, greed, ignorance, and debauchery grew.
"Pin Village is a mirror, urging those in power to be vigilant at all times and avoid extremes. Instead of hating the people, it is better to restrain themselves and return to propriety starting with themselves," Su Liu's hand trembled slightly as he held the paper.
The people of Pin Village are indeed hateful, but their ancestors once came to this place with great ambitions.
It must be said that their crimes reflect a very intense and very straightforward class contradiction. The confidence interval of this sampling result is above 99 percent, providing a strong reference value for the king to solve such problems. But unfortunately, the king has changed, and so far, he has not implemented any measures...
Could it be that he is disappointed with human nature?
But he is the king.
If the king doesn’t care, who can?
What's even more tricky is that Dangxia also said: The king holds the life and death agreement of the two Pin brothers in his hand, and there is a rubbing of the blood-written "Tomorrow's Dawn", which means: No matter how great the sins committed by the descendants of the Pin family in the future, please let them go because they once sacrificed for justice.
So, the king really just does nothing, does nothing, or just lets things take their course?
Those innocent people who were deceived and robbed into the village were just ruined in vain and died with hatred?
Su Liu looked at the terrain of Pin Village again and had the answer in his mind.
A few hours later.
Su Liu and Lin Shu explained what happened here.
Before leaving, Lin Shu asked, "City Lord, do you want me to be myself or stick to my duties?"
Su Liu gave a different answer, "What do you think duty is?"
"Duty? To me, the word 'duty' means moderation. It means not deciding the fate of others based on one's own likes and dislikes. I only give them choices, and as for how to do it, that's their business," said Lin Shu.
"Then go ahead," Su Liu nodded.
This time, Lin Shu didn't laugh. She looked at Su Liu seriously and said, "City Lord, do you know why I like you?"
"So corny again?" Su Liu was a little overwhelmed.
"Because..." Lin Shu's eyes seemed to sparkle, "No matter how much I go too far, you're always there to check on me. This is something I longed for."
Lin Shu has been doing her own thing for so many years, and she is not perfect. She has also accidentally hurt innocent people due to her youthful impetuosity. Her heart is not cold, and she also feels guilty.
At this moment, Lin Shu felt that her physiognomy skills had improved again. She clearly realized that it was not because of hatred, nor because of pain...
It is restraint.
It is the forgiveness of sins after understanding the cause and effect.
Extreme revenge will inevitably bring about extreme destruction.
After a strong army, there will be disastrous years.
Fast forward to now.
It's getting dark.
Fireflies circled the pool.
Qi Fengling swept up the fallen leaves and prepared a clean straw mat for Su Liu.
Su Liu sat cross-legged on the grass, holding the chinchilla in her hand. The big fluffy mouse was very well-behaved. Su Liu handed it the sweet cake, and it carefully stretched out its paw to take it, eating it in small bites without dropping even a single crumb. It was so polite.
Su Liu slowly spoke to Qi Fengling, "Brother Fengling, I used to think that my liking you was a compromise with my parents. Those two people liked your type, so I felt that liking you was a betrayal. Now I know that was just a superficial appearance. In reality, what I projected was my fear of love. I was too young back then. What my parents did to me made me think that marriage didn't require love. So marriage usually represents a negotiation: you can only choose between love and family."
"Apart from this, I was worried that if I liked you, you would become my weakness, but my talents and skills were already very weak at that time, and I couldn't protect you, so..." That's why I always wanted to push you away, Su Liu confessed.
"There's one more thing," Qi Fengling pinched Su Liu's waist, his eyes revealing the meaning of "Su Liu, you are not honest."
"What else? Aren't you the White Moonlight? This third reason is invalid." Su Liu raised the Totoro and pointed it at Qi Fengling's face, commanding: "Throw the sweet cake in his face and hit him."
Totoro looked at Su Liu with a look of reproach and turned his head away, ignoring her unreasonable behavior.
Its rabbit companion lay at Qi Fengling's feet, chewing on the hay bit by bit.
The atmosphere is harmonious, and there is a lively feeling of being surrounded by children and grandchildren.
Su Liu pretended to be angry and patted Totoro's butt lightly, "You and I are one family."
Yes, the protagonist of Midnight Snack Street is named Su.
"Su Liu, you're really going too far," Qi Fengling took the chinchilla over. The chinchilla seemed to prefer Qi Fengling's lower body temperature. When Su Liu tried to grab it, the chinchilla waved its little hands to refuse.
Su Liu slapped Totoro's hand in amusement, "You dislike me already?"
The chinchilla twisted its butt and sat on Qi Fengling's legs like a human cub, continuing to eat the sweet cake.
This time it seemed very relaxed. Su Liu actually saw a few crumbs of sweet cake sliding down from its beard and falling on Qi Fengling's pants. He was shocked to realize that this little thing still had some "idol baggage" in his hands.
Qi Fengling glanced at the chinchilla on his lap, then glanced at the rabbit at his feet. Seeing that the two little ones were lowering their heads and eating dinner seriously, Qi Fengling quickly came over and kissed Su Liu.
Su Liu blocked him with her hand to prevent him from kissing her.
"Su Liu, you still say no, you are rejecting me," Qi Fengling said.
"These are two different things. How can they be confused? Just because I like you, does that mean I have to accept your closeness all the time?" Su Liu had to emphasize, "This is the misunderstanding of your Alpha thinking. I like you, and I am still me. I am me first and foremost, and I have always been me. I can't become your possession."
"...," Qi Fengling reflected for a moment and apologized, "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."
"Maybe you think possession is love, and you prefer real touch to spiritual things. I can cooperate, but I also have the right to refuse," Su Liu pushed away Qi Fengling's face.
"You always use moral blackmail and hold me to the standards of a saint," Qi Fengling pinched Su Liu's waist in anger, "I'm just an ordinary person."
"How are you ordinary? You have been able to endure oppression for more than three thousand years alone. You have great potential. What's wrong with me having higher expectations of you?" Su Liu met Qi Fengling's gaze.
Qi Fengling blushed when Su Liu looked at him. "As the saying goes, it's better to open up than to block. Don't expect so much from me."
"Haven't we kissed each other a few times? It's not like I won't even let you kiss me," Su Liu pouted unconsciously.
"...Not enough," Qi Fengling continued to demand more.
"Qi Fengling!" Su Liu stood up and hit someone.
Qi Fengling immediately ran out with the chinchilla and the rabbit in his arms.
"...If I wasn't set up to be a genuine AO lover, I... I," Su Liu cursed behind him.
at the same time.
A mountain village not far away.
A Luo, who had once had a love affair with Diao Fen, got up, scooped up water and stood in the yard to take a bath.
The water in the water tank soon ran out, and A Luo moved the water tank to scoop out the water at the bottom.
At this moment, a "wuwu" sound came from somewhere.
A Luo lay on the ground and listened carefully, and soon he realized that the sound came from underground.
A Luo walked into the thatched hut, pulled a piece of cloth to cover himself, and patted Diao Fen who was sleeping soundly.
Diao Fen smacked his lips, grinned foolishly, and muttered in his sleep, "...It feels so good."
"Soon, you'll be as desperate as I am," Luo chuckled softly, then walked towards the water tank...
