Chapter 35: Murderous Hatred
This madness lasted for twenty minutes before it gradually stopped.
Kirk gasped violently, staggered back a few steps, and the knight's sword in his hand was casually placed aside, the sharp tip of the sword cutting a shallow white mark on the ground.
Looking at the relief in front of him, which had been cut beyond recognition by him, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Turning his head, he smiled apologetically at me: "I'm sorry, I was a little excited just now. ”
I raised my hand to stop and said, "It's okay, I can understand. ”
Kirk coughed a few times, inhaled sharply, and slowly exhaled, looked at the messy relief, and said to me, "I don't know what the purpose of this relief is, is it a conspiracy of monsters, to provoke the wrath of adventurers, or is it a totem carved by the God of Creation to hone our endurance?" ”
"Although an adventurer who is loyal to the God of Creation should not be so impulsive, when I see the actions of the characters in the relief, I still can't contain the anger in my heart, and now, although I have vented, I am still ashamed of my impulsiveness."
He sighed heavily, turned to me, and said with pleading in his eyes, "As a companion, I take the liberty of asking, what do you think these reliefs are trying to express?" ”
I understand what Kirk is a fanatical believer, but whenever he thinks something is different from his teachings, he will always destroy humanity at the first time, and when the destruction is over and his mind is clear, he will ask the witnesses around him if the thing he destroyed conflicts with his teachings.
And often by this time, they have already committed an unforgivable sin.
Most of the time, though, they excuse themselves.
If it is something that is departed from the doctrine that is destroyed, they will consider their practice holy and just; If it is not something that is departed from the doctrine that is destroyed, they will think that everything they have done is for God's sake and can be forgiven.
All in all, they're always right.
I have two proven ways to solve this type of people's problems.
Either agree with him, or answer him in a roundabout way, divert his attention and take the topic elsewhere.
In contrast, I'm better at the second approach.
After thinking about it for a long time, I said with a serious expression: "I think these reliefs are stating history. ”
"Tell history?"
Kirk frowned and nodded thoughtfully, it was obvious that he had been taken into the ditch by me.
"Yes, you can think about it this way, why are these infuriating reliefs here?"
I took a step forward and turned on the orator mode, with a serious and solemn expression, and said: "That's because, this is a painful history, countless adventurers, for the peace of the world, rushed to the boss of the monster without hesitation, uh, that is, the minotaur in the relief, they fought desperately for justice, and even paid for it. ”
"After the sacrifice of countless comrades-in-arms, they found that the strength of the Minotaur was incredibly strong, which was beyond their reach, so in the team, there was the first deserter, with the first, naturally there was a second, and soon, everyone became deserters, and the whole team was crushed into an army" I pointed to the relief that was cut into a mess, and said: "That is what this relief wants to express." ”
Kirk listened very attentively, and when he saw that I had stopped suddenly, he said with some urgency: "And then?" What's next? ”
I rubbed my chin, pondered for a moment, and continued: "The next thing may be like this, the God of Creation saw that the human race was overwhelmed and the human world was about to fall, so he moved his heart of compassion and personally took action, defeated them all, and sealed them all in this dungeon for us to upgrade and farm equipment. ”
"That's pretty much it," I said, looking up at Kirk, and seeing that the thing was looking at me with burning eyes, and there was an urge to stir the earth with thunder.
I waved my hand again and again and refused: "I'm sorry, please don't look at me like this, I'm not as good as Long Yang, I'm not interested in men." ”
"No, no, no, you misunderstood" Kirk saw that I was wrong, and his embarrassed poker face with a natural beard was sweating: "I didn't mean that, I just think that your explanation just now is very reasonable, and I think that the truth must be as you explained, the great God of Creation finally saved the world, yes, it must be like this!" ”
With his hands clenched into fists and pressed to his forehead once more, he threw up his head and muttered to himself, "Thank you, great God of creation, for your use, my lord!" ”
In the distance, an unusually restless female voice came over: "Kirk, we paid you to hire you, not to ask you to pray, but to let you help us destroy the boss!" ”
After a while, Yifang came over angrily, and the others also looked bad.
However, they couldn't point the finger at us, so they had to pour their anger on Kirk's head.
"Kirk, I hope you can be serious" Quincy said with a gloomy face, holding back his anger: "If you still have no end of nerves, please leave, as for the salary, I will not pay you a copper coin, because you have not fulfilled our agreement!" ”
Quincy's words were very unkind, and there was a menacing tone in his tone.
Kirk had a cold poker face and nodded, not arguing.
Quincy looked at me, with a very complicated expression on his face, and expressed great anger at me for not intervening in helping, but when she thought of what I had said to him before, she was helpless against me.
After thinking about it for a while, he squeezed out a very ugly smile: "Mr. An Xiaoyi, if you can, I hope that you will also look for the boss with us, in this way, our chances of finding the boss will be much greater." ”
"And then?" I raised an eyebrow and said, "What benefits can I get?" ”
Seeing that Quincy's expression was very depressed, I spread my hands and said, "I'm not a Buddha, I can't be noble in cutting meat and feeding eagles, everything needs to be exchanged for equal value, there is no benefit, why should I help you?" ”
My eyes were very sincere, without a hint of cunning, and my tone was no different from that of chatter.
It's just that I can clearly see the lingering hatred in Quincy's eyes.
Do I have to carry forward the spirit of Lei Feng and selflessly dedicate my youth?
Sick!
I secretly said in my heart: "Is it good for Lei Feng to keep a diary!" ”
Quincy closed his eyes for a while, took a deep breath, and opened them again, the hatred in his eyes was hidden, he nodded politely at me, and said, "That's it, Mr. An Xiaoyi, if you help us find the boss and defeat the boss together, I'll give you half of the loot, how about it?" ”
After a little thought, I nodded and agreed to his conditions: "Yes, but half of the loot is given to us." ”
Bowing to Phoenix and the others, I continued, "Not me. ”
"Deal!"
Quincy and I clapped our hands, and the moment I turned around, I saw the hatred in his eyes again.
That is, with murderous hatred.
