[Yang Chan] Fei Tian

"Song Laojiu, the funeral is today."

Long Yan reported from her side, his tone neither salty nor bland.

Yang Chan was recording an article, and stopped writing upon hearing that.

"Is this the greed of mortals?" She asked suddenly.

"Yes..." Long Yan was taken aback, and then replied, "But not completely, greed... There are many kinds..."

"Oh, I know," Yang Chan threw the written letter into the fire, "those who are lustful, those who are greedy for money, those who seek profit...I have seen many. Before, I always wondered why they pursued These things that cannot be taken away after death, now I know... When they get it, they will be happy. Long Yan..."

"Yes..." Long Yan responded.

"When you smile, is it because you are happy?"

"maybe……"

"Really?" Yang Chan thought, "So the root of greed is for happiness; I can smile when I kill people, that is happiness... Then Long Yan, I kill people for happiness-this is greed." desire, right?"

"I have no idea……"

"You don't know?" Yang Chan sneered, unfolding a new page, ready to write another one, "I thought you knew everything."

"I'm a mortal, how can I know everything..."

Yang Chan turned her head and glanced at him.Long Yan lowered his eyebrows, but there was something brewing in his bones, but he never wanted to be seen through by her.

"Qiqing, I've got Sanwei." She stared at him.

"You... want to tell the truth?" Long Yan said.

"Say."

"In my opinion, you have never obtained anything. Those are all others', not yours..."

Yang Chan snorted coldly, and put down his pen heavily: "I snatched it from someone else, it's mine!"

"Then Yang Chan, tell me: Is the joy when you kill someone really happy? You said you already know what joy is, so is the joy when you kill someone the same as the joy when you tasted maltose back then?"

"This..." She thought for a while, but couldn't answer.It seemed the same and it seemed different.

Long Yan shook his head, as if he didn't want to entangle with her on this issue any longer, and he wanted to leave the cave and go down the mountain again.

"Where are you going?" Yang Chan called to stop him, "Don't forget, you are my servant, if you leave Huashan Mountain for ten miles, you will kill yourself!"

Long Yan said patiently: "I want to go out to get some fresh air, can't I?"

"Then you've breathed too much recently. I know exactly what you've been doing recently," Yang Chan walked slowly in his direction, "What? Did you take a fancy to that village girl? She's better than Ye Lin Lang, it's a long way off."

"You!" Long Yan was a little angry, "Please speak respectfully, except for Lin Lang, I won't..."

"Hypocritical!" Yang Chan interrupted him impatiently, "Why don't you take care of her because you like her!"

Long Yan tried his best to calm down, and replied: "She is pitiful..."

Yang Chan squinted at him: "Poor? There are so many poor women in the world, why don't we have to take care of them one by one?!"

After a long silence, Long Yan suddenly sneered and said, "So Yang Chan, have you really recovered your seven emotions?"

"what?"

Long Yan said: "Ordinary people have feelings, so they know what pity is; but have you ever pity others?"

Yang Chan thought carefully: "I..."

He said again: "Yang Chan, have you ever been angry for others, happy for others, or sad for others? No, in your heart, there is only one change for the other. It is right and wrong in the world, not seven emotions! You You only know right and wrong but don't understand ethics, what use are the seven emotions to you?!"

After some reasoning, Yang Chan was left speechless by a mortal question for the first time.She may be as he said, but the strange thing is, if she didn't even bother to argue before, but today, she intends to argue but doesn't know where to start.

Before he could react, Long Yan grabbed her hand and dragged him out of the cave questioningly: "Aren't you going to make up for Qiqing?! Come with me!"

Just as he saw Canaan leading his group of foxes back, Canaan called Master and Dad, and was surprised to see that the two elders went down the mountain without looking back.

……

A dilapidated hut in the forest, approached, and heard a suppressed sob.The closer you get, the more intermittent the sound becomes.

Yang Chan knew whose cry it was, she shook off Long Yan and said in a low voice, "You brought me here just to show me this?"

They were four zhang away from the house, and Yan'er couldn't hear them talking in such a low voice.

"She has been crying for three days..." Long Yan said, "Song Laojiu is dead. The villagers don't know the ugliness of this house, and they think it was caused by robbers... Those villagers still say that he is a good person. Today, let's give him glory Great burial, buried in the grave of the Song family ancestors..."

"..."

"But the girl was kicked out by her mother. When I found her, she showed signs of miscarriage... If she hadn't been discovered in time, she would have already died. Do you know what will happen to her in the end? After she dies, Maybe her mother would feel ashamed and throw her mat everywhere."

Yang Chan turned her back: "There are too many injustices in the world, I don't want to take care of them, you can't take care of them."

"You killed her father, her mother's husband, she is now homeless, shouldn't you care..."

"But shouldn't I kill him? Should I be like those people before, just take Qiqing, leave him alive, and then continue to live with my family ruthlessly?" Yang Chan looked up at him, "Yes, Long Yan, as mortals, you have seven emotions, you understand compassion, you can be happy and sad, but you don’t understand this human nature as well as I do! I killed her father, but so what?! She is pregnant, even if her father is not dead , can you continue to live in that family with peace of mind? That village has always only valued males and not female relatives, and the source lies in them. My crime is only murder! They are guilty, but no one will admit it!"

There was another burst of crying.

Yang Chan continued: "With her appearance, can she survive in that village? After leaving that village, can she survive again? You can save her for a while now, but not for the rest of her life. Anyway, it will be miserable in the future, so it's better Take your life as soon as possible."

"It's not what the doctor did, and I won't let her die!"

"Yes, you can't. But Long Yan, you can heal people, but you can't heal people." Yang Chan said with a smile, "Are you betting with me? This girl will commit suicide in the end."

Long Yan had to sigh: "Yang Chan, do you pity her?"

Yang Chan turned her head away: "I don't know what pity is."

"Then do you know that when people help others out of compassion, they just give and don't ask for anything in return—this is also a kind of greed and a kind of joy."

"kindness?"

"Aren't you begging for love? There is a person here who needs your help. You may not return it, but if you help her, you can get what you want... Are you betting with me?"

Yang Chan looked at the hut from a distance, but didn't answer him.

"This house is yours? It looks like it's been a while." Her eyes fell back on Long Yan.

Long Yan was taken aback, he didn't expect that she would ask this, so he had to answer truthfully: "It is... my previous residence."

"I'm afraid Ye Linlang doesn't know this residence."

Yang Chan walked around the house, but never opened the door to go in.In the end, she didn't take his bet, and he didn't take hers either.

It was night, on the edge of a cliff in Huashan.

Yan'er is holding her stomach, the abyss is under her feet, and there is only an old pine to accompany her. She has been lonely all her life, and she has no family. In this world, she doesn't know what else she can miss.

"Are you looking for death?"

There was a question behind her, and she shivered in shock.Looking back, I saw a girl in white clothes. Even the mountain wind in the middle of the night could not shake her clothes.

"Yes...you..." She recognized her.The tears on her face were not dry yet, she just cried again.

"You, do you want to seek death?" She asked again, approaching her a few steps, but she was not in a hurry to stop, but instead said, "Do you know the death condition of the person who fell off the cliff?"

Yan'er nodded.She once saw someone on the mountain fall off the cliff and slide into the deep pool at the bottom of the mountain. With missing arms and legs, he swelled up in a ball and just floated on the surface of the water. If no one came to fish for a few days, he would sink.

Thinking of this, Yan'er felt a shudder behind her back, with a hint of timidity.

The person who came said: "There are good people who fell off the cliff. They were blocked by rocks and fell into the mud. Along the way, red and white were mixed together. When the mountain rain rushed, even though they died, there was no whole body. It is also safe to be buried in the ground; some hung on the tree and were pecked by birds in the mountains, and there was a bite here and there. , I don’t know if he fell to his death or drowned, if it’s the latter, he has to be a water ghost or other substitute... I remember, there is a pool of water near your house, you can see a lot of these.”

Yan'er's expression flinched a bit.

Yang Chan continued: "Take a look at the bottom of the cliff! From now on, it will be your burial place. Take a look, so that you can understand when you die."

Yan'er stretched her neck, glanced down, and immediately retracted her eyes, and fell to her knees.

The one who came has come near.

"It's so hard to die. Once I slap you down, you will be like your dead ghost father. You have no breath, only breath. But are you willing?"

Yan'er lowered her head, unknowingly, tears overflowed again: "Then... what should I do... what can I do... They regard me as the plague god who killed my father. , there is no home to return to..."

Yang Chan said: "You can find another home, this place is not easy to change; but you only have one life, and you will still see your father when you are under the Nine Springs!"

"I don't want to see him, I hate him!" Yan'er gritted her teeth.

"You hate him," Yang Chan said, looking at her sideways, "how do you hate him?"

"Hate... just hate... I don't know why and how to hate..."

"Oh, I thought you wanted to kill him again."

"Kill him?" Yan'er shook her head, "But he is my father after all..."

"You don't want to kill him again, and you don't want to see him so soon, so you have to live." Yang Chan took out a pill from his bosom, "Girl, live! This medicine can kill you." There is a fetus in your womb. After all, this child is a result of unethical behavior, and you still have decades to live, so it is a pity to be dragged down by him for the rest of your life."

Yan'er hesitated for a while, but finally took the pill and shivered into her arms.

"Who are you..." she asked.

"Heh... On that day, which temple did you go to, and which god did you pray to?"

She dropped this sentence and walked into the bushes again.Sure enough, Long Yan waited there, he opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

"I also have other ways to take the thing of the earth veins. If you get it first, I will snatch it. There are many ways, but I don't want to do that. Long Yan, I took you as a prisoner in order to get this thing that I really love. What I want, instead of asking you to teach me everything."

Yang Chan brushed past him: "As for her... Next, it's up to her how she chooses."
