Chapter 240 Night Talk
Chapter 240 Night Talk
Thinking back to the scene before that thing that looked very much like Mrs. Wu, with its mouth full of blood, made Yu Wenxuan's guess even more credible.
But if it's a disease, what disease causes a person to become like a human being or a ghost? What is the cause?
Jiang Li was obviously not the only one who noticed this. Both Bai Yanliang and Yu Wenxuan had an even more shocking guess.
That is, the culprit causing this plague may be the root cause of this mission.
"Mr. Bai, where is Miss Xu?"
At this time, Jiang Li finally had the opportunity to ask this question.
Bai Yanliang came in alone, and the rope tied to his wrist was missing.
Could it be that something happened to Xu Zhifei too?
Bai Yanliang did not look at Jiang Li and said: "She may have encountered some trouble."
"What's wrong with Miss Xu? Does she need our help?"
Jiang Li asked quickly.
Bai Yanliang shook his head: "Ms. Jiang, you have to know that not everyone is willing to accept the kindness of others, and there are some troubles. The best help is not to cause trouble."
Jiang Li opened his mouth, but finally did not speak.
It was raining heavily outside the house, and the sound of rain echoed in the valleys, covering up all sounds.
"Rest, take turns to keep vigil. Mr. Yu and I will come first." Bai Yanliang glanced at Jiang Li, who had his head lowered and was restless, and said in a low voice.
Jiang Li suddenly came to his senses and nodded.
Seeing Jiang Li leaning against the wall and closing his eyes, Bai Yanliang and Yu Wenxuan exchanged a look, and the two got up and came to the eaves.
There was a heavy rain curtain in front of me. Raindrops as big as soybeans fell intensively, causing broken water splashes. The dark sky seemed to be lashing out with countless snow-white whips towards the earth.
"Mr. Bai, do you know? In fact, I am... very scared." Yu Wenxuan leaned against the door, looked up at the dark sky, and whispered.
"Human beings are small and ignorant, animals are ferocious and cruel, nature is astonishingly majestic, and there are also theories about ghosts and gods that are intangible and cannot be seen clearly, but there seem to be traces to follow, but these... I am not afraid of. The unknown and uncontrollable, What I can't really touch, what I can't match...that scares me. I hate being unable. The feeling of control, but unconsciously indulged in it, Wuji... gave me this feeling." Yu Wenxuan retracted his gaze and turned slightly to look at Bai Yanliang, "And it can also give me this feeling of being out of control. , is a person, guess who he is?”
Bai Yanliang didn't answer him, even though he knew that the person Yu Wenxuan was talking about was him.
There are not many people who can see through Bai Yanliang, and currently there are only three in total.
Among them, the one who surprised Bai Yanliang the most was Xu Zhifei, the one who was most wary was Ren Wudao, and the one who was most relieved was Yu Wenxuan, who looked like a madman in front of him.
Because Bai Yanliang can understand his thoughts just like he understands himself.
"If it weren't for Wuji, I think we would have become friends." Yu Wenxuan looked at Bai Yanliang and suddenly squinted his eyes and smiled.
Bai Yanliang looked sideways at him: "Aren't we friends?"
"Hahaha..." Yu Wenxuan seemed very happy, but when he smiled, his eyes changed, "Mr. Bai, you know, among the remaining dozen people, only one can survive... .”
"And that person will undoubtedly be me."
Having said this, Yu Wenxuan did not hide his feelings at all.
He wants to live.
Of course, this is understandable.
Everyone wants to live, including Bai Yanliang.
He is not great and cannot sacrifice himself for others.
Although many people's impression of Bai Yanliang is just two words...a good person.
Perhaps it would be more appropriate to add the word "bad" in front of it.
But... no one knew this time that this bad guy was a character created by Bai Yanliang by imitating another person seriously.
His bad-ass brother may have buried himself ten years ago for reasons like this. In Bai Yanliang's own view, everything he does to survive is reasonable.
He imitated, studied, and dressed himself up carefully. He lived with the character of studying people for a long, long time.
It's been so long... that he has almost forgotten his true self.
He has no emotions, but he is not an idiot.
He could feel their feelings for him, but because of this, Bai Yanliang was calm.
Because he knows that what they like is the reflection of another person, not the real Bai Yanliang...
In fact, he was also "scared".
He was afraid that after taking off his mask, he would become the second Yu Wenxuan, the second... a monster that everyone avoided.
Ten years... may sound short at first, but is actually a very long time.
In the past ten years, Bai Yanliang has not had even a single friend...
How lonely this is, only he knows.
The Yu Wenxuan in front of him is the only person Bai Yanliang has met so far who can show his true self without concealment.
Because he and he are the same kind of people.
"You must have sent that document." Bai Yanliang looked at Yu Wenxuan, his face expressionless, but his eyes bright, "Show the key, provoke conflicts, and make them kill each other."
< br>
Yu Wenxuan looked at Bai Yanliang unexpectedly, and the smile on his face became even stronger.
He could clearly feel that Bai Yanliang's temperament was changing.
This elusive, difficult to interpret, uncontrollable feeling could only be felt by ghosts, but only by him!
Yu Wenxuan's body was trembling, not with fear, but with excitement.
"Mr. Bai... you are so interesting." Although Yu Wenxuan spoke very softly, he leaned very close, "I just... help Wuji speed up the process. They will die sooner or later anyway, right?"
Bai Yanliang looked directly into Yu Wenxuan's eyes, but Yu Wenxuan did not dodge at all.
After a moment, the expressionless Bai Yanliang said: "So, you are also a waste who only follows the rules."
The smile on Yu Wenxuan's face faltered, and his squinted eyes slowly opened, revealing a cold light.
"Rules?" Yu Wenxuan stared at Bai Yanliang, "I have trampled on countless rules."
"Where is Wuji?"
Although Bai Yanliang was asking, his tone already told Yu Wenxuan the answer.
You followed the last rules of Wuji. You are afraid, you are afraid of death, you are afraid that the last remaining person is not you...
Yu Wenxuan's expression changed wildly. The point that Bai Yanliang suddenly pointed out happened to hit the point that he deliberately ignored.
In Yu Wenxuan's mind, Wuji and ghosts have a superior-subordinate relationship, which is reflected in the rules set by Wuji. Not only them, but also ghosts must abide by them.
Therefore, Yu Wenxuan never subconsciously thought about resisting the rules set by Wuji itself.
For example... only one person can survive in the end.
His face turned red and white, and he felt that Bai Yanliang must be full of sarcasm now.
Because he is not a rule breaker at all. In the final analysis, he is just a more "law-abiding" practitioner.
