I Persuade People With Reason

The falling sunset melted into the sky, the viscous orange-red smeared the edges of the vast mountains, the shadows of the distant mountains fell on the wilderness, and the sky and the earth showed a dull and inexplicable color, like overturned oil paint.

call……

Above the wilderness, the cold wind blew, and the sound of the wind was faintly mixed with the roar of beasts. Several figures ran in the wilderness, constantly approaching the towering mountains, and along the way, black blood spilled all the way.

If you take a closer look, you will find that the one running in front is a tall young man. He is covered in injuries. There are a lot of scratches and bite marks on his arms, legs, and even his chest. As for the flesh and blood on his body, he turned out bloody, and the dark black blood that was close to pitch black kept dripping out of it, and he was extremely weak.

And what kept chasing behind him were five strange beasts.

The whole body of this beast exudes a faint blue light, and its shape is similar to that of a wolf, but there is one more eye on its forehead. All three eyes are full of dark blue light. The lines are like flames, and the breath of the whole body is extremely fierce.

It's just? Their bodies are illusory and real, and they seem to be between the real and the real. The last moment he was still running on the ground, the next moment he seemed to have turned into a few illusory blue shadows, and in an instant, they burst into the air and rushed towards the young man who was covered in bruises and embarrassment.

Seeing that he was about to be slaughtered to the ground.

The young man's expression turned cold, he gritted his teeth and scolded, his body leaning forward a little while running, then his waist and abdomen folded greatly, and his hands turned around and waved out.

At this moment, a cold glow appeared on his fingernails.

The sound of slashing came out, and the young man's hands seemed to have turned into two sharp blades, entangled with several beasts.

Inevitably, he suffered more injuries.

"Huh...huh..."

At the foot of the mountain, Yu She was panting violently, the power in his body was rapidly draining along with the blood, so that his complexion began to become pale and transparent.

A very thin black line gradually loomed under his pale skin, showing a twisted and terrifying form.

As he became weaker and weaker, his eyes gradually became confused, and he felt that afterimages began to appear in the world in front of him.

"...Are you going to die?" The colors between the sky and the earth are getting darker and darker, the dim yellow and darkness are intertwined, and the rich color is distorted in his eyes, reflecting a melting sunset, like boiling magma, "It seems that I have to be the first to others. One step back to Yongye's embrace..."

He tried his best and fought fiercely. He could vaguely hear a few whining sounds around him, and warm blood splashed on his face and into his eyes, making everything in front of him blurred. A layer of blood.

The sharp claws ripped open everything and grabbed at his heart.

Yu She felt that she had reached the limit, her eyelids were about to close again, and she fell into eternal sleep.

At this moment, there seemed to be a hand gently pushing him behind him, Yu She's body almost involuntarily fell to one side, and a figure had already passed from the mountain path hidden behind him. He took a step forward, came to him, and faced the sharp claws that attacked.

In Yu She's blood-blurred vision, a strange and slender back was reflected.

Just a single back, it gave people endless malice. It was darker than the night, deeper than the abyss, and the powerful spiritual thoughts made Yu She's thoughts distorted, and the eyes seemed to become a vast expanse. The curtain of darkness, all his perceptions were devoured.

That man didn't seem to do anything, just? He lowered his eyes and looked at the few beasts emitting a faint blue glow around him.

Swah——

In the next instant, wisps of jet-black flames burned up on the three wolf-like beasts. The flames were not from outside, but seemed to have been lurking in their bodies for a long time, and self-heated from within their bodies.

In the blink of an eye, the few beasts who were still aggressive and fierce just now couldn't help but start rolling around on the ground, and a series of roars came out of their mouths. At first the roar was fierce, but later it became weaker and weaker, and finally turned into a desperate and mournful wailing.

It wasn't because he didn't look at them anymore, but he turned to look at the young man who had just been pushed aside by him. The man was sitting on the ground in an embarrassment at this time, and he had almost his last breath left.

And on his pale, bloodless face, the twisted black lines were gradually fading, as if they were about to disappear.

Yuan Buwei was stunned for a moment, walked up to him, lowered his head slightly, and asked, "Are you okay?"

He read the information about the world in the monster guild. The world is not without any people, but with aboriginal people. It's just that the world is too vast, and the settlements of the aboriginal people are extremely scattered and far apart from each other, so it is not always possible to encounter the aboriginal people.

And the characteristics of this person are obviously aboriginal.

There is no language barrier in the inner world and the outer world, so I didn't worry that the other party would not understand what I said.

Yu She, who was slumped on the ground, slowed down for a while, until the twisted black line under his skin gradually sank, and all the abnormalities disappeared. He seemed to return to his normal appearance, and he breathed hard: "I , I'm all right? I'd like to thank you for saving me this time."

His breathing gradually calmed down, and he stood up from the ground, finally having a chance to look at the person who saved him just now.

This is? A young man who looks less than 20 years old, with black hair and black eyes, his body is neatly dressed, the top button of his snow-white shirt has been loosened, and under the slightly messy hair, a face is extremely Good-looking, and the most important thing is that special temperament in him.

Yu She dared to swear that in his twenty years of life, he had never seen anyone who could compare with this person. Even the Dr. Huo from the prosperous metropolis in the town, who was once incomparably powerful to him, seemed to be dwarfed by this person in an instant.

Inexplicably, Yu She felt a little cramped in his heart, he licked his lips, and said in surprise and doubt: "Hello, my name is Yu She, I'm a resident of nearby Yongning Town. What's your name? Yes? Travellers from elsewhere? I don't seem to have seen you around."

At the same time as he looked at the original non-action, the original non-action was also looking at him. Because it is said that the aborigines in the world have good or bad attitudes towards outsiders, they may be willing to communicate, or they may shout and kill. With a light smile: "I'm really not from here, I'm an explorer who likes to explore. Well, my surname is Yuan."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Yu She suddenly felt even more cramped, took a deep breath, and then said with a smile, "It turns out to be an explorer, no wonder you have such a strong strength, Mr. Yuan, to be able to solve the five-headed problem in one breath. The wild beast." There was admiration in his eyes.

... a wild beast? Knowing what the aborigines called the beast, Yuan Buwei nodded silently and did not speak.

Yu She raised his head and glanced at the sky, and saw that the setting sun was gradually setting, and there was only a very shallow crimson line in the sky in the distance. The earth seemed to be swallowed up by darkness.

His expression changed slightly, and his tone became hurried: "I didn't expect it? It's almost night, so I don't have time to say more. Before the night falls, let's go back to Yongning Town and talk about the other way!"

Seeing his urgency, there was still a hint of fear hidden in his tone, why didn't he do it? He didn't waste time saying anything, so as not to ask some common sense to expose his ignorance.

Under the last line of slanting sunlight, the two hurried forward, and the dim skylight was like the shadow of a twisted monster, chasing behind them.

In the process of rushing on the road, I had already learned a lot of information from him, even though Yu She himself was not aware of it.

——The chat group of the Monster Guild only provided him with the most superficial layer of information. I don’t know if the Monster Guild didn’t know much, or was it deliberately hidden and did not reveal more important content to the Guild member.

And now, many things that he didn't know, have been clearly understood through the mouth of Yu She, an aborigines.

The first is the distribution of forces in the inner world. The whole inner world is very large, and there is no concept of a country. Some are just towns and villages scattered in the wilderness. Of course, there are more The prosperous metropolis in the mouth.

Since Yu She had never left Yongning Town, he only knew that there was a prosperous "Indus City" just east of Yongning Town, thousands of miles away. And this is still? Because a doctor from "Wutong City" settled in Yongning Town, he will know the news. As for other directions, or further afield, whether there are any prosperous cities, he doesn't know.

You must know that when you leave Yongning Town and go to other places, you must pass through a large wilderness. There will be various crises lurking in the wilderness at any time, which is very dangerous for most people. Only certain teams of explorers who have assembled a group of people with extraordinary strength will dare to take risks. That doctor back then came with a team that passed through Yongning Town, and then he stayed here.

I didn't want to listen quietly and didn't say much.

According to the Monster Guild, the inner world feels like a world where a civilization has been destroyed and rebuilt on top of the ruins, like an oasis in a desert. If there is a biochemical crisis or a meteorite falls in reality one day, the connection and traffic between the various cities are cut off, and people rebuild their homes on the ruins, which is probably similar to the world.

It is very dangerous in this world. The wilderness is full of wild beasts, and they will attack nearby towns every once in a while. In addition, sometimes there are some dangerous places inexplicably. Of course, for the awakened people, it is the relic places where opportunities can be obtained- - If you are not careful, you will be caught in it, and you will not know your life or death. And whether it is a big city or a small town, a kind of "source stone" is needed.

This kind of stone is buried deep in the ground of the wilderness. It is difficult to excavate by itself, but it is the only source of energy in the world. From the most common lighting, to the energy required by weapons, only Originium can provide.

Therefore, even if they knew the danger, many people had to go out and out of the wilderness every once in a while to dig the source stone.

However, not all of the world's aborigines are ordinary people. A very small number of them will suddenly awaken the power of blood in the body one day, so that they have all kinds of incredible powers, they can fight against the wild beasts in the wilderness, and overcome some sudden crises, every once in a while It will clear the wild beasts near the town, so as to protect ordinary people to live.

Yu She is obviously one of them.

"...This time I was digging for the source stone, but I didn't expect luck? Bad luck, I ran into a group of wild beasts nearby, even if I escaped the first time, there were still a few of them that were chasing after me. No? Mr. Yuan, you take action? Save me, this time I can only return to Yongye's embrace."

Having said that, Yu She had lingering fears, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead that he didn't know whether there was or not. He was very fortunate.

"Returning to Yongye's embrace? Is this what people in this world say about death? Or is it just a custom in this small place like Yongning Town?" He waved his hand, but thought to himself.

When the two were talking, a small town standing in the wilderness was already in sight. A huge source stone was inlaid on the top of the highest church in the center of the town.

The soft white light surrounds the edge of the town, like the only shining beacon in this dim world.

"Hurry up! Hurry in!" Yu She's happy and hurried voice was in his ear, with a bit of horror that could not be concealed, "...they are going to catch up!!"

He pulled over the territory that he did not want to quickly run into the town, and suddenly there was a faint soft glow on the two of them.

It wasn't because he stepped into the town, he turned around and looked.

I saw that the night had completely fallen, the stars and moon could not be seen in the sky, and the extreme darkness was like a bottle of ink spilled, but it gave people a sticky paste-like feeling, what was surging in the darkness?

"what--!"

Not far away, a scream came out.

Yuan Buwei turned his head to look over, only to see a group of people running in from outside the town about a few hundred meters away from the two of them.

Before the last person could step into the town's territory, he was swallowed up by the endless darkness, and only had time to let out a scream.

At that moment, it seemed like there were countless invisible hands stretching out from the darkness, dragging the person who had just stepped on the light and half-body in the darkness into the darkness and disappeared.

The other people who traveled with him all looked frightened and gloomy, and seemed to have a relationship, but they didn't have too intense emotions. It seemed that they were used to this kind of thing.

Yu She next to him let out a sigh, and said a little sadly: "I know that person, it's a carpenter in the town. His family has no relatives anymore, so this is something to be thankful for."

"What's the matter?" Yuan asked curiously, "Can we talk now?"

He is not worried that this is a problem that exists in the entire inner world, so that he, who does not understand common sense, exposes his identity as an outsider. After all, when the "nightmare" first entered the inner world, the inner world was at night, and at that time it was just an ordinary person's "nightmare" who could lay there for a long time without knowing how many days. It can be seen that the night in the world is not dangerous. And the monster guild? No mention of this.

——That can only be? Yongning Town is in a special situation.

Sure enough, Yu She was not suspicious at all, just sighed and said, "This is the blessing of the Lord of Eternal Night. Every night, this wilderness near Yongning Town will change, and it cannot be timely. Those who rush back will fall into Eternal Night and return to the embrace of the Lord of Eternal Night."

Originally: "???" These? Aboriginal people still believe in gods? Are the gods of the world real or fake? If there is a god, it is probably not a blessing, but a curse.

Yu She seems to have a very subtle attitude when it comes to the word "blessing", probably deep down in his heart he also thinks it is a curse, but he is in awe of the legendary gods and dare not say this:

"Actually, you should be able to understand that it is said that there are blessings from different gods near other towns. For example, Xianquan Township cannot be ignited, and once the fire appears, it will produce unknown; Black and white towns cannot appear in colors other than black and white, Otherwise, the townspeople will be lost forever; there is also Wutong City, I heard that every family over there is planting sycamore trees, and if the sycamore trees die, it will cause disasters..."

And these strange curses are also one of the reasons why many aborigines are afraid to leave their hometowns to go to other places, after all, no one? I don't know why strange places trigger curses.

Yu She said a lot of strange "curses" in one breath, but in Yuan Buwei's view, this is very similar to the "rules of the game" set for different areas in certain games.

While casually introducing Yuan Buwei, Yu She asked curiously, "I don't know where you come from, Mr. Yuan? Which **** do you believe in? And what kind of blessings have you received?"

"...Me?" Yuan Buwei was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "The place where I was born is called Moyuan, um, you should consider it a city built underground. There is no light there. , it is dark all year round, and many residents have never been on the ground from birth to death."

He recalled it for a while, and his tone sounded very natural, with no trace of fabrication at all.

"...And the inhabitants of the Demon Abyss are born very fast, and their attitudes are not friendly to each other. They like to kill each other. The winner takes everything from the loser, including life." After all, they are a group of Souls composed of evil thoughts, swallowing each other is their instinct.

Yu She suddenly let out an "ah" in surprise, and looked at Yuan Buwei with some understanding and tolerance.

Originally, a question mark appeared on his head because it collided with his eyes. I always feel like this guy has misunderstood something.

"I've heard before that some people in towns are very vicious. I didn't expect Mr. Yuan to live in such a place. You can grow up safely and leave from there. It's really a happy thing. ?."

Saying this, Yu She laughed.

——Of course he didn't think that taking the initiative to take the initiative to save him would be a bad guy, this guy is clearly a big good guy. Then the other party can successfully escape from the "magic abyss" that sounds like bad people everywhere, isn't it a very fortunate thing?

I didn't think so? He smiled: "Yes? Ah!"

——Being able to see everything beyond the Demon Abyss, this is really a happy thing!

"...The Moyuan is indeed dangerous. Those residents have no idea of ​​unity and kindness at all. I was almost eaten when I was a child. Fortunately, I am very talented. When I grow up, I am determined to change the environment of the Moyuan so that everyone can learn Get along well... After my efforts, all the residents were finally persuaded by me and realized their past mistakes, so they became a harmonious and united family."

"Ah?" Yu She realized that he had misunderstood just now. It turns out that Mr. Yuan didn't escape, but through his own efforts, he changed everyone's ideas, which is even more remarkable. He immediately admired from the bottom of his heart, "Mr. Yuan, you are really amazing!"

"Let's convince people with reason." Isn't it because the whole person seems to exude holy light, illuminating the right path, "No matter how stubborn people are, as long as the reason is strong enough, they can be persuaded."

Yu She looked at him? His eyes had risen to admiration.

Originally, he had saved his life without doing anything, and the two of them had traveled all the way, deepened their understanding of each other on the road, and had a friend in need to avoid Yongye together. The trust of inaction has obviously reached a new level.

He directly invited Yuan Buwei to live in his own home.

It wasn't because he didn't refuse, he agreed.

——After all, he who just entered the inner world is unfamiliar with his place, and it is much more convenient to have an aboriginal beside him, whether he is asking about the situation or doing things.

Although the Monster Guild also provided some information, it was not in-depth enough.

The president of the Monster Guild is a human, not a god, and everything he knows is not necessarily right. What's more, the Monster Guild is not a charitable organization, who knows if the information provided by the other party is there? Is it intentional to stuff some private goods? It was originally a group of lunatic people who were not mentally normal. They called a dangerous place a treasure and lured other people to jump into the pit. It was not an impossible thing.

Yu She's home is on the west side of the town, and the place where the two came in is the east entrance. If you want to go to Yujia, you have to go through the largest square in the center of Yongning Town. In front of the square, is the towering gray and white church.

In the night, the original stone inlaid above the church shines brightly, and the square is as bright as day.

When the two were about to pass through the square, they suddenly saw a group of people walking towards the square from the other side. They staggered along with a girl in a thin dress, and beside the girl, there was a pair of stern faces and sad eyes. old couple. The atmosphere of the whole team was extremely heavy.

"What happened??"

I didn't look at it blankly, but I could only see the thin back of the girl, her long loose hair hanging down to her waist, almost covering her shoulders and arms.

Yu She stopped, his brows were tightly locked together, his face was very ugly: "Is there a blasphemer again?"

Not only him, but also many residents of Yongning Town seem to be attracted by this scene and gather in the square. It didn't take long for the empty square to be full of people, and everyone's faces were very complicated. .

Some looked worried, some looked sad, and some showed extreme disgust towards the girl, and some even shouted, the crowd was extremely noisy.

I didn't want to follow the flow of people, but I finally got a clear view of the girl's face.

This is a girl who looks only thirteen or fourteen years old. She is still young, and she only looks at her eyebrows. She knows that she is a beautiful embryo. But how beautiful the left half of her face is, how ugly and terrible the right half of her face is.

There were dense dark spots all over her right face, as if worms were crawling. Those black bugs spread along her right cheek to her neck, and finally even crawled onto her right arm.

This scene is horrifying.

It was not because of the fact that I quickly recalled the many materials of the Monster Guild in my mind, and a word quickly emerged.

- Aberrant?

——Aboriginal people in the world will also be distorted?

The crowd was noisy, and from the discussion of the crowd, it was not for the faint of heart to hear something.

It seems that there will be some people in the world who will someday undergo such a terrible change, and the aboriginal people will blame these people for blasphemy, and they will be punished?

However, looking at the attitudes of these people around, it is clear that everyone has different ideas about the so-called "blasphemers". Some sympathize, some hate.

Because "blasphemers" often die in painful distortions, whether out of sympathy or disgust, as long as such people are found, everyone will kill them in a special way, which is considered an early termination. their pain.

Only through these details, Yuan Buwei guessed the thoughts of the aborigines in the world.

Maybe they are not sure if there are gods in the world, but their experiences cannot be explained in a way they can understand, so they can only blame the gods. It is as if the ignorant ancients took many incomprehensible things as the actions of the gods.

Some sober people know very well that they are just throwing the blame on the gods, but they don't actually believe that there really is a **** in the world - or, even if there is a god, the attitude of **** to people is definitely not friendly, but ?Malicious? - Hence their sympathy for the so-called "blasphemers".

And some people probably fanatically believe in gods--maybe they just force themselves to believe--maybe they think that just by pleasing the gods, all misfortunes will never happen again. Therefore, their attitude towards the "blasphemers" is undoubtedly disgusting and indignant.

Before he could think about it, the priest in the church had already stood in front of the girl with a sigh in his eyes.

He picked up a pale silver dagger.

"...Child, may the Lord of Eternal Night forgive your disrespect."
