Blood drops dripped from the fingertips, and the sound of hitting the ground was very clear.
It's like knocking at the door of your heart.
But this question is really ironic.
"Do you still want to ask why?" Lou Jiang Yueding sat there, like a knife of frozen meat in an icehouse, exuding frost from the inside to the outside, and he was already dead: "When did I want to
Lived?"
If she could commit suicide, she would have ceased to exist.
But Lou Jiangyue can never kill herself. Once she really wants to put this idea into practice, Yuan Tu will dominate her will, making her sober in the midst of killing and awakening in the blood.
The price of "enlightenment" was too heavy. It was the cat she had raised for many years, the wet nurse who had raised her for many years... so that she did not dare to touch it again.
"At least...for a while." Lou Yue said with some difficulty.
Lou Jiangyue said nothing.
"I watched the moon all night last night." Lou Yue's voice was complicated: "For a moment, I really wanted you to tell Shang Shuyi everything. But you actually endured it."
Lou Jiangyue's voice was very monotonous, so monotonous that there was only indifference: "Tell him what."
"Say that I am not worthy of being your father, and that I deserve to die." Lou Yue grinned uglyly: "You said that the current head of the Yingtian Lou family, deputy commander of the Imperial Army, and privy envoy of the military aircraft building... has ever been a demon?"
If this sentence spreads, it will instantly cause an earthquake throughout the Central Empire!
In the court hall, among all the princes and officials of Tiandu, no one can sit firmly!
But such horrifying news could only be heard in the silent cell.
Lonely and no one listens.
"Are you telling me, or are you telling yourself?" Lou Jiangyue smeared her blood-stained fingers on the ground meaninglessly: "Or to change the question - you are so anxious to get me out of the censor's desk.
"Tune it out, are you really worried about your daughter, or are you worried about what I really said?"
Lou Yue lowered his eyes. He was still standing there, still tall, but he seemed to have aged a lot.
"I don't know whether to free you or let you continue to suffer in the name of love."
He twitched his lips: "The saddest thing about your problem is that I really can't tell. Jiang Yue, what kind of person is your father?"
"You should leave this question to others. The Central Empire will give you a fair answer." Lou Jiangyue remained indifferent: "Head of the Lou family in Yingtian, deputy commander of the imperial army, privy envoy of the military aircraft building...maybe more
The last 'Daojun'?"
How can a person like Lou Yue be troubled by "what kind of person am I?"
What bothers him is what his daughter thinks of him.
But he couldn't tell whether this trouble came from guilt or love. Maybe they were the same thing?
And he just asked: "You are in prison these days, how do you know... Mr. Dao?"
Lou Jiangyue glanced at him: "I heard that Zong Dezhen died. You just chose this time to reach the top, and Ouyang Jie gave you such face."
"You are still so smart." Lou Yue said.
"No one will believe you now that you are a master of demons." Lou Jiangyue seemed to be laughing and mocking: "Besides, you have found your way back from your lost ways, and you have the emperor's trust."
"But Shang Shuyi will confirm all this and end it all." Lou Yue said.
A person like Shang Shuyi who is determined to correct all mistakes and takes this as his path will not pretend that nothing happened just because the emperor helped to cover it up. Nor will he let time wash away the truth. He will definitely lift the lid.
.
"Are you really willing to give up what you have now and what you are about to have, Mr. Lou?" Lou Jiangyue asked.
"If I can give up anything to make you return to normal, I won't hesitate to do anything." Lou Yue looked at her: "If everything could start over, I wouldn't let you become like this. Jiang Yue."
"Then what should I do?" Lou Jiangyue's eyes were calm and emotionless: "Did you let your sister become like this?"
Lou Yue fell silent.
Silence is the frost of words.
When Yuan Tu was destined to die, he was forced to take his fate, but it fell into his bloodline. He had to choose one of his two daughters. He chose to let his sister bear it.
This is the source of all pain today.
What he wanted to start over was that he no longer had to make choices. But Lou Jiangyue's pain was - "Why me?"
If it were to happen over again, what would this father choose?
"Your best choice now is to kill me." Lou Jiangyue looked at him and said, "Kill me and the past will stay in the past forever - letting me live until now is the biggest mistake in your life."
"...That's what makes you like this." Lou Yue said.
Lou Jiangyue didn't speak for a while.
Who would have thought? A person who once worshiped the Demon-Slaying Covenant would become friends with the Seven Hate Demon Lord through his experience in the world. They drank and talked with each other for a while, became their confidants, and sang together all night long!
That friendship may be real. In the end, the Seven Hate Demon King paid a huge price to plant the fate of Yuantu in Lou Yue, hoping to lead him to the Tomb of the Ten Thousand Realms to become a heavenly demon, or even the ninth among the eight demon kings.
Demon King.
He used his outstanding will and strength to expel Yuan Tu, but this tragedy was passed down through his bloodline and fell on Lou Jiangyue.
The most tragic thing is not what you choose and suffer.
It's that you have no choice but to endure it all.
Lou Jiangyue was born like this. It wasn't that she wanted to kill people, it wasn't that she was vicious and bloodthirsty, she was just a patient, it was a disease she was born with!
"Where's sister?" Lou Jiangyue asked.
"She is waiting for news at home." Lou Yue paused and mentioned the other daughter with some caution, fearing that the wound would be touched again: "...I'll make some medicine for you."
Lou Jiangyue lowered her eyes: "I've had enough of those useless medicines."
"I've seen enough doctors who can't cure me."
"I can no longer stay in a cold and damp room, like a mouse that has never seen the light of day."
"You are working on this day after day, repeating tired and useless efforts. It seems that I am dragging Lou down."
She raised her head, the expression on her face had been frozen by the frost: "But is all this my fault?"
"Of course not, you never had a choice." Lou Yue said seriously: "From the moment you were born, you have shouldered this responsibility. You are stronger than everyone else, and I know you have worked hard to fight against it. You -
"
Lou Jiangyue interrupted him: "You just asked me why I don't want to live anymore - right?"
She doesn't like to listen to those who are trying to make up for it. The harder she struggles, the more incompetent she is, doesn't it?
Those who can't change anything can only show off their efforts.
Her building is like an ant's house.
Before the Seven Hate Demon Lord and Yuantu Tianming, it was useless to resist and struggle in vain.
Lou Yue said: "Because you want to save him."
I didn't mention the specific name, but it was the first time I actually mentioned it.
It was like a tacit understanding that had never been mentioned was broken at this moment.
Lou Jiangyue also spread her eyebrows: "You know what I have been doing these years."
"Know who I'm with."
There was a strange expression on her face: "The direct bloodline of the Yingtian Lou family, your Lou Yue's daughter, is a killer with no door in hell, the infamous Yama. In order to erase those traces left accidentally, you must also
Did a lot of things.”
"You are very smart and have left almost no traces." Lou Yue said, "I didn't do much."
"You don't have to do it again." Lou Jiangyue said.
"Yes, you have announced this identity to the whole world." Lou Yue said: "It's just that I don't understand. If it's just to save him, with your wisdom, you should be able to think of a better way."
He sighed: "You clearly know how dangerous this matter is, and I have hinted it to you. You can completely prevent him from getting involved."
"I can't stop him." Lou Jiangyue shook his head: "Because he knows how dangerous it is."
"He is not stupidly seeking death, he is sober and crazy." Lou Jiangyue's expression was very strange, like a sigh and a smile: "A person like him will die one day. He will die vigorously, like a star.
Explode."
Madmen and lunatics are always attracted to each other.
People who are short-lived and people who are bound to die are destined to be destined by fate.
"Then you have to at least wait until the day when he explodes like a star." Lou Yue said, "...and then commit suicide."
"I thought so at the beginning." Lou Jiangyue opened up his heart for probably the first time in his life and communicated with his father. He briefly let go of his resentment and seemed unusually peaceful. But this may also be the last time: "But I'll wait.
No more."
"I wanted to kill him before the onset of his illness. Just because he rejected my suggestion and insisted on taking risks on the maritime battlefield."
"At that moment, I suddenly thought, instead of letting others kill him, why not let me do it? What a gorgeous scene it would be if I could crush this star with my own hands! I began to imagine that his head was in my hands
It exploded in front of me, red like flowers, white like snow, everything was unbelievably beautiful——"
She looked dazed, as if she had fallen into that beautiful imagination again, and then she smiled sadly: "I even want to kill him."
Now Lou Yue completely understood why Lou Jiangyue was determined to die.
Yuantu's disease is no longer just an occasional moment of madness. It is not content to slowly spread to Lou Jiangyue's life. Instead, it has been rooted in the depths of her personality, giving birth to her truly bloodthirsty humanity!
No matter how ruthless a person is, he will not easily become murderous when facing those few people who mean a lot to him.
Even if the tiger's poison does not eat its seeds, the evil wolf will also be accompanied by wolves.
Lou Jiangyue's desire to kill has been a pure desire to kill from the beginning. From her inability to control herself after the murderous intention occurred, it has evolved to the point where it is even difficult for her to exert influence on this murderous intention. Going to the next stage, I am afraid that she has already
It is impossible to recognize the problem at all and will take action directly.
In other words, her condition worsened again and she was already terminal!
The more she kills, the stronger she gets, and the stronger she gets, the closer she gets to Yuan Tu, and the closer she gets to Yuan Tu, the less she can control herself.
This is an infinitely extending road to the abyss, as she falls from birth to death.
"There will be a way." Lou Yue said.
However, even he himself felt powerless.
What can be done?
If there was any way, how could he wait until today?
Unless we go to the Tomb of the Ten Thousand Worlds now, grab the Seven Hate Demon Lord in his hand, put a knife to his neck, ask him what Yuan Tu means, and ask him what to do!
But even Emperor Dajing couldn't do such a thing.
"I have come to this day and done such a thing, I will definitely die. The country cannot tolerate me, and the family should not tolerate me." Lou Jiangyue said: "If you are worried, just try harder. With your current situation
With my status today, even if you kill me in the Criminal Investigation Department, the matter will be revealed."
"If I die, I won't have to suffer so much anymore. I won't have to make a choice anymore, facing this war that I will always lose. I have been fighting since I became conscious until now, and I haven't won once. I'm... tired."
"I will settle the case with my resentment towards you, and the matter will not affect him."
"You can also wipe off the last stain and be a Taoist king with peace of mind from now on."
"With you, with him, with me, with our family, with our country. This is the best choice."
"You go, Mr. Lou." Lou Jiangyue slowly closed her eyes: "This is my choice."
This is the best option.
Lou Yue's tall figure was like a wall, pushing heavily outward.
Then the prison door closed again.
Darkness enveloped this place again.
Lou Jiangyue was as quiet as a part of the prison cell.
No one came to put her on the rack again, no one put the shackles on her.
This is the special treatment brought by Mr. Loudao.
But she was always on the rack and never left.
…
…
"It seems that Ambassador Lou is really going to be the Taoist Lord..." In the office of the Criminal Division, several officers gathered together and chatted: "Have you ever seen the chief minister give face like this? Come and welcome him into the Yamen in person.
And I personally sent him out as a gift."
Another chief executive laughed: "Then you didn't see the chief executive going to the Yushitai overnight to ask for someone. That's how nervous he is!"
"What are you talking about? I really don't know how to die!" Huang Shoujie, the chief of the Criminal Investigation Department, happened to be passing by and criticized sternly: "Is the chief chief someone you can discuss casually?"
The so-called Chief of the Daotai Division is responsible for liaising with the Criminal Division of the Dao Kingdom in the world. In fact, he is the backup for the Chief of the Criminal Division. His position is like that of the censor of the right capital to the censor of the left capital.
However, there is only one censor of Youdu, but there are three chief ministers of Daotai.
These executive officers were all his direct subordinates, so they dared to point fingers at the chief executive - in a sense, this was also a form of surrender.
At this time, seeing their immediate boss speaking so harshly, how could they dare to speak harshly, and all of them had drooped eyes and lowered eyebrows.
"Is there anything important that you need to get together to discuss?" Huang Shoujie asked again, which was a step up.
One of the Executive Directors reported: "Nancheng Executive Director Chen Kaixu has lost contact with the team he led. We don't know what the situation is at the moment. It may be related to the revenge of the Ping Dynasty, or it may be Yizhen Dao——"
"This is the matter of the Chief of Nancheng and has nothing to do with us." Huang Shoujie interrupted him: "The country is in troubled times. Everyone should stick to your duties, do your job well, and worry less about useless things. Let's go and do things.
"
All the executive officers dispersed like birds and beasts.
Huang Shoujie walked inside expressionlessly.
The Executive Director is already considered to be a middle-level person within the Criminal Investigation Department, and the Executive Director who works directly in Tianjing City is one level higher.
So he had an impression of Chen Kaixu.
But his focus is not on this person.
He vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a "Taoist" who was assigned to work together with Nancheng Executive Director Chen Kaixu, who he personally developed into Taoism. What was his name? He had sealed that memory.
The remains of the Taoist master were captured, the Taoist leader was surrounded and killed, and the executioner also died unexpectedly. He could no longer establish contact with other Taoist disciples. The entire Yizhen Tao was in turmoil, and everyone was lurking in panic.
At this time, there is no point in escaping. If you move, you will be exposed, and if you are exposed, you will die.
It seems that I can only wait for the big purge to come...
Huang Shoujie closed the door and silently sat down at his desk.
I opened a file, took a pen, and slowly checked.
At the same time, a Dao candle was lit in the sea of consciousness.
Green candle, red core, white flame.
After waiting for a long time, the name jumped out of the gap in my mind——
Jiang Nanpeng.
