The Whispering Verses Chapter 1437: Justice and Distortion
Chapter 1437 Justice and Distortion
Shad pushed the door directly and entered the stable. The horses, which were still neighing uneasily because of the noise, immediately became quiet because of the smell of Shad's body.
The horses became quiet as soon as Shade walked in, causing the two people facing each other to look at the door in surprise.
The thin moonlight could only illuminate a small area at the stable door, and the kerosene lamp hanging on the wall could not illuminate the shadow on Shade's face. With his boots trampling the hay on the ground, Shade casually placed the wine glass on the stone fence of the stable nearby:
"Isn't it too rude to kill people here?"
"It's you again?"
Stone Oxenfurt looked at him in surprise:
"How do I feel that I can bump into you wherever I go? Didn't I send a servant to tell you that we have an appointment to meet tomorrow?"
"Yes, I'll see you tomorrow, so?" br/>
Shad looked at the fat man on the ground and wanted to call for help. Oxenfurt kicked the fat man with his boot in disgust, and the latter covered his arm and screamed on the ground:
"I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"
"John Watson, since you always think you are righteous, please leave this matter alone."
Xia De did not have a sense of justice and must stop the other party's behavior, but asked:
"I'm very interested in your feud with him. Let me guess. He owed you tens of thousands of kronor and didn't pay you back, and then you caught him playing Rhodes in the casino? Or maybe, he stole from you Something?"
"Neither."
Oxenfurt kicked the man on the ground again, and the latter sobbed and did not dare to move in the direction of Shade:
"You know, I have a pretty good group of friends."
"Subordinates."
Xia De corrected.
"If you want to hear a story, just shut up."
Oxenfurt said in a low voice, because his back was to the only kerosene lamp in the stable, his entire body and face were in shadow, and the pitchfork in his hand was never put down:
"He hurt the sister of a friend of mine and used Rhodes's debt trap to force others to sell themselves to repay the debt. In other words, this is legal loan sharking. My friend did not ask me for help at first. I only learned about this recently."
"When did you have such a sense of justice?"
Xia De asked suspiciously.
"Sense of justice? According to you, if my men's families are harmed and I don't care, then how can I do business in the Randall Valley? This **** has been avoiding me in recent weeks. , but I know he will definitely come to this banquet. He wants to curry favor with those nobles. Look, won’t I catch him now?”
After speaking, he turned to look at Shade:
"What, you want to stop me?"
"I generally don't get involved in things that have nothing to do with me and neither party is a good person. Once I get involved, no matter who I help, I will become just like you."
"But if you don't save me, isn't it the same as helping Orson?"
The fat man on the ground received another kick, this time in the stomach. He was hunched over and shaking on the ground, seemingly speechless.
"I would like to know, based on your sense of morality and justice, how would you judge what I am about to do?"
Oxenfurt raised the pitchfork, a weapon that was difficult to see but was quite dangerous in close combat.
"Judgement?"
Xia De thought for a while:
"If what you just said is true, then he must have done something bad. And if he did something like legal loan sharking once, it is definitely not the first time. So theoretically, he did Damn it."
Xia De looked at the scene in front of him.
"You want to say, let the law punish him?"
Oxenfurt sneered.
"I wouldn't say that, after all, I have done a lot of illegal things myself.
I mean, even if you want to kill someone, don't do it in someone else's manor. Even if you killed him, turned him into stone and buried him in your garden, you wouldn't leave any trace behind. And once someone discovers that someone died here tonight, Prince William and Princess Margaret will probably have a headache. ”
"Buried in the garden? Did you even tell you such a thing?"
Oxenfurt squinted his eyes and looked at Shade, as if he wanted to see something from his appearance, but Shade raised his eyebrows:
"That's not the point."
"The point is, you don't want me to kill him here?"
Xia De thought for a while:
"It can be understood this way."
"I thought you would save him even if you fight me."
Oxenfurt said, then dropped the pitchfork in his hand. Because the ground is covered with hay, the sound of the fork hitting the ground is not loud.
The fat man on the ground thought he had escaped this life threat, but the next second, as Oxenfurt's boots stepped on his palms, and with a scream like a pig being killed, The fat man's palms were first petrified, and then the petrified parts quickly spread along the palms until his entire body turned into stone.
"I remember, your hobby is sculpture? When I went to your house to pick up the agreed statue, I saw the statue you made in the studio."
Xia De picked up his wine glass and said, looking at the stone sculpture on the ground.
"You said that, I broke it. I am always dissatisfied with my work, so I always break it and make it again."
As Oxenfurt said, he bent down and pressed the forehead of the stone statue, and then ripples appeared on the ground until the stone statue was completely swallowed into the earth.
"This method is really good. When you get home, you should be able to take it out directly from the soil, right?"
Xia De suddenly asked again:
"If I remember correctly, the word 'Stone' has a very similar pronunciation to 'stone' in the local spoken language of the Randall Valley. I'm curious as to why you would use this name."
"You should ask the ghost about this, not me. It also praised my name."
As he stood up and prepared to leave, Shade stood still. When Oxenfurt was about to walk out of the stable, he suddenly asked:
"You have done so many things and have so many enemies. Don't you believe that sooner or later, you will be retaliated against?"
Osenfurt twisted his upper body to look at him:
"You may have forgotten that I am immortal. Although I am not a magician, I am not an ordinary person either."
"But you can still feel the pain."
Shad pointed out:
"Last time I attended the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Enriquez, and when we dueled under the dead tree at the top of the hill, I saw clearly that you are not incapable of feeling pain. You can enjoy any kind of fun, I am able to appreciate the feeling of my heart beating in my chest, but live every day as if it is my last. I am very curious about how I developed this attitude towards life. ”
Osenfurt looked at Shade with a sullen face:
"Don't forget to come to my manor tomorrow night and take away [Original Land]."
After saying that, he left. Shade took another sip of the wine in his hand, and then felt that even the wine smelled like horse manure:
"Sure enough, when it comes to his heart, he doesn't want to talk to me anymore. Sure enough, there is something wrong with his heart."
【Heart of Stone? 】
"It won't be that simple."
Shad poured the remaining red wine in the cup into the feed trough of the stable, and then planned to leave. However, as soon as he took a step forward, he turned around in surprise and looked at the darkest corner of the stable that he had not paid attention to just now.
"You haven't been standing here since just now, have you?"
"No, I know your senses are very sensitive and trying to eavesdrop on your conversation is impossible."
Mr. Lassus stepped out of the shadows, and there was a sound when he walked, because his body was actually solid, not the shadow of his soul.
However, this is not a resurrection from the dead. The sound of this body walking is too "heavy", which means that the density of the body is much higher than that of a normal person.
"Since you took the initiative to show up, the restlessness of the earth has been calmed?"
Shad asked hesitantly, but Mr. Lacers shook his head slightly:
"No, the situation is more serious. It is expected that in the early morning of Saturday, with the northern part of Randall Valley City as the epicenter, there will be a major earthquake no less than three hundred years ago. By then, the distortion of the earth will enter the fourth stage. ”
The Guardian once said personally that there are only five stages of earth distortion, and the last stage is an irreversible disaster:
"The sign of the fourth stage: All situations that occur in the Randall Valley will occur with equal probability in any corner of the material world. At the same time, serious natural disasters will occur in the Randall Valley area, such as storms and heavy snow. , Mudslides will also resurrect some ancient monsters. You can understand that the fossils are given life."
Xia De sighed slightly:
"It's Saturday morning, what a coincidence. I plan to deal with the demon on Friday night. After solving the devil, can you come to see me in the early morning of Saturday to hold a ceremony?"
The Guardian neither agrees nor objects:
"The person meeting you now is not me, but an incarnation of clay. Now, I can no longer leave the Heart of the Earth. I have to rely on the Heart of the Earth to maintain my own stability, and the Heart of the Earth also needs me for the final Maintenance. No one knows that the complete heart of the earth was broken long ago when the ancient **** left, and what is left now is the most complete part. The ruin of the earth is already doomed.
However, don’t worry, we are prepared in advance. ”
"Don't tell me this. In other words, after I defeat the demon, I still have to go to the heart of the earth to find you personally and wake you up?"
Luvia said that the chosen ceremony of the earth is best carried out in a place that can directly connect to the heart of the earth. So if we do it directly next to the Heart of the Earth, it seems to be the best choice.
The guardian seems to have understood what Shade meant:
"The ceremony of the chosen one must be on the earth. This is the information I got."
The candidates, especially the first candidates, can always get some news that others don’t know:
"Moreover, the situation in the heart of the earth is very complicated now, and the distortion there is more serious than any other place. Even you may not be able to get there."
