One meter high

"Senior Brother wants me to live, but the price is the lives of innocent people." Yuan Yue said in a deep voice, "I don't remember Senior Brother teaching me such a truth."

Ji Guanqi shook his head: "Before today, no, even half an hour ago, I would not have done this. But now, the situation has changed."

"what?"

Ji Guanqi whispered two words: "Chaos."

"The 'Chaos' mentioned by senior brother is the legendary evil beast that wakes up once every thousand years?" Yuan Yue asked, "Didn't it mean that it will wake up after five years? What does it have to do with Zhu Qi?"

"'Chaos' is not just a beast, but a state." Ji Guanqi said, "Anyone, no, anything can fall into this state, just a little bit of fuel. And soon A few days ago, 'Chaos' found Zhu Qi."

Yuan Yue was not surprised, but just blinked.

"Zhu Qi told you?" Ji Guanqi smiled, "He is considered smart, but unfortunately, those who have faced chaos will never end well."

Yuan Yue was stunned, and asked: "Why? Senior brother said that I was born to curb chaos and eliminate ferocious beasts. Could it be that even I can't do anything to it?"

"No one in the world is your opponent." Ji Guanqi said, "But the power of 'Chaos' is that it can peek into the darkest corners of people's hearts. Pull people into chaos, turn the people you care about into your enemies. When the person who is your enemy is Zhu Qi, do you still have the confidence to defeat him?"

The reason why Yuan Yue was invincible was that he had no other distractions, no scruples, and was able to strike so resolutely without leaving any room for trouble.And in the face of the one he loves, who can easily deal with it?

"Of course." Yuan Yue answered firmly without hesitation.

Even Ji Guanqi, who knew Yuan Yue very well, couldn't help being taken aback, almost suspecting that he heard it wrong, or that Yuan Yue, a stubborn boy, didn't understand what he meant: "This is not a contest of spells. It's about people's hearts. Or, you don't care about him that much?"

"On the contrary. Just because I like him, he likes me." Yuan Yue said seriously, making Ji Guanqi recall how he was when he first met him.

At that time, Yuan Yue was just a small baby with pitch-black pupils, neither crying nor smiling, and the clear sky was reflected in his eyes.The Yuan Yue at this time is not the same as that at that time, but his eyes are the same, they are also clear and clean, without any impurities.

Still too naive.Ji Guanqi wanted to sigh again: "No one can maintain himself in the face of 'chaos', everyone's heart has flaws."

"Brother too?" Yuan Yue asked back, as if mentioning it casually, without waiting for Ji Guanqi's answer, he just shook his head affirmatively, "Zhu Qi will not."

"Him?" Ji Guanqi was slightly surprised, "If you say that you have a harmonious heart and a pure and kind heart, then it makes sense. But I wish you abandoned him... Yuan Yue, don't you think that beauty is in the eye of a beholder?"

"Because I have seen his heart." Yuan Yue looked at Ji Guanqi firmly, "It is the cleanest, most precious and most beautiful thing I have ever seen in this world since I went down the mountain."

"That's because you don't know enough people." Ji Guanqi still didn't take it seriously, "Do you know why I don't want you to go down the mountain?"

"Because senior brother is afraid that I will be attracted by the prosperity at the bottom of the mountain, so I won't be able to concentrate on spells."

Ji Guanqi smiled and said: "With your concentration and perseverance, I have never been so worried. What I am afraid of is not the prosperity below the mountain, but the filth below the mountain. 'Chaos' will take advantage of the void, and you are the only one I don’t want you to be a hidden fighter who can fight against chaos, I just want to keep your innate purity and innocence, and increase the odds of winning against chaos.”

Glancing at Yuan Yue who was lost in thought, Ji Guanqi continued: "In the past few months, you have encountered mixed feelings of good and bad, heard the cry of a child who was murdered at birth, and seen ghosts and monsters walking around the world wearing human skin. You should be clear that no matter how many people you defeat and how many things you do, with your own power, you can't change the troubled world and move forward. Zhu Qi is just one of the mortal beings. It has been tumbling for a long time, and it is not worth your attention."

Yuan Yue's expression didn't change much, but Ji Guanqi felt that he was a little angry at this moment.

"Zhu Qi is not such a person." Yuan Yue muffled.

"There are too many people like him." Ji Guanqi said with a smile, "When I encountered setbacks when I was young, I fell into a slump and didn't want to make progress. Helping others with thin thoughts of kindness is just to distinguish myself from the people around me. It’s all about maintaining a self-deceiving sense of superiority. I have seen many people who are more powerful than him and help others without asking for anything in return, but none of them... can escape the temptation of chaos."

"Senior brother is wrong." Yuan Yue wrote clearly, "Senior brother underestimated him, and also underestimated me."

He is not good at verbal disputes, but I wish Qi Qi well, he can't finish talking for three days and three nights.

"Zhu Qi did not live on the mountain. He has seen many people, knows how bad people can be, and knows how good a bad person can be, but he is still himself. Like a lotus leaf in a pond, dirty things can't touch it. Above, the more violent the storm, the more clean it will be washed away." Yuan Yue said, "His strength lies not in external objects, but in his heart."

Ji Guanqi was taken aback when he heard that, and after a while he smiled and said: "Look at you fool, what are you talking about."

"I can't say it well, but he did a good job." Yuan Yue said, "Chaos can't defeat Zhu Qi, no one can really defeat him."

"Not necessarily." Ji Guanqi sighed quietly, "What if it was you instead?"

"Bless you."

Yuan Yue's voice sounded in the dark carriage.Zhu Qi paused, listened attentively, and said pleasantly, "Yuan Xiaodai, you are finally here!"

At this moment, he was lying on the side of the carriage wall, struggling to poke the thin gap with the thin bone blade in his hand.Due to lack of oxygen and high temperature, his forehead was already covered with sweat, and his cheeks were flushed abnormally.

In the middle of the carriage, Zhu Yulin was lying quietly, his chest rising and falling weakly, Zhu Qi wrapped up the bleeding spot on his head with a piece of cloth, and the bleeding slowed down a bit.

"Hurry up, hurry up, this girl is going to burp, I don't want to stay with the dead, you hurry up and find someone to get us out." Zhu Qi said anxiously.

"Well, don't worry." Yuan Yue's voice was no different from before, "I've already sent people here."

Zhu Qi smiled and said: "Then I'm relieved. Seeing that you have done a good job in saving the car this time, I won't hold you accountable for being too slow!"

"But..." Yuan Yue's voice was deep and deep, echoing unreal in the stuffy carriage, "It will take some time for them to come here. The oxygen here is not enough for two people."
