01170 Balance and Imbalance(1/2)
When she saw this late guest, Sakura felt like she was in another world for a moment.
Scenes of the past passed quickly before her eyes, and Sakura thought she would never see this person again... But she didn't expect that not only would he come back, but he would also stand in front of her alive.
It's just that Yingzi didn't quite believe her eyes... She kept looking at him in concentration until he said, "I didn't expect you to be here too."
After Yingzi heard the voice, she was sure that it was him. He was indeed back, and he was still so annoying.
So Sakurako immediately turned her head and stopped looking at him.
Lulu was a little surprised. She had heard some past stories about Yingzi before, but she didn't expect that Yingzi would react like this when she saw her close relatives.
The other party was also a little embarrassed.
Xue Ming gave up his seat and let him sit down.
Aaliya smiled first and said: "You, please learn how to speak more...it's been so many years...you still haven't made any progress at all."
He smiled, looking a little lonely, but didn't explain anything.
When everyone arrived, Lin Xue stopped talking nonsense. She went straight to the topic and said: "My brother told me before he left that year, no matter what changes happen within human society and the Shenqi tribe, it will not matter to me.
There is no need to interfere, I just need to take care of my own people... But... if there is a problem that threatens the existence of the entire world, I have to come forward, and please remember the reason why you are sitting here."
Everyone nodded silently, but Yingzi was still a little confused, so she asked softly: "Your Majesty... I didn't understand..."
Lin Xue glanced at Yingzi and said: "Actually, I didn't plan to come over to you today, but it was such a coincidence that I met you, so... let me put it bluntly... your father decided to use his existing
Everything is passed on to you as an inheritance, but there is one condition."
heritage?
Yingzi was shocked when she heard this, and she hurriedly looked at the late guest.
But the guest just lowered his head and drank tea with a smile on his face, seemingly not caring about how Lin Xue organized his words.
Seeing this, Lulu quietly shook Yingzi's hand, and then whispered: "Don't be impatient now, I'll ask you later."
Yingzi's hands trembled slightly, and she fell silent.
"Want to hear what the conditions are?" Lin Xue asked.
Yingzi glanced at him secretly again. He had indeed become much older... What had he experienced in the past ten years...
"Well..." Sakura nodded.
Lin Xue smiled: "It's very simple. If you inherit everything from him, it is equivalent to assuming his responsibility, and this responsibility may make you make choices you don't want to make at some point.
"
Yingzi trembled when she heard this. She had actually guessed it... But the reason why she chose to leave that home back then was because of his decision, which made Yingzi lose her mother...
Now he asked her to step forward to take over his responsibility... This...
Yingzi smiled coldly and shook her head: "I'm sorry...I refuse."
Lin Xue raised her eyebrows and looked at the man sitting opposite.
He was still drinking tea. After hearing Yingzi's reply, he said softly: "If the child does not agree, these matters... should be handled by me."
Yingzi didn't feel the slightest gratitude when she heard such words, she just felt chilled.
Lin Xue asked coldly: "You? You have less than a week left, can you really do it?"
A week!?…A week…
Yes... Sakurako remembered it... He was already very old... and he always hated those things... Now that he appears like this, he must be in a very respectable state.
He smiled bitterly, but said calmly: "That's enough. I've got important clues. I believe I can handle the matter in the next two days."
"Oh?" Xue Ming, who had been silent all the time, suddenly asked: "Can you explain it in detail?"
But he shook his head and explained: "It's not that I doubt you, but the matter is a bit complicated. I hope you can be more patient before sorting it out."
Lin Xue didn't care much about these details. She said, "I have patience, but I'm worried that my body won't be able to hold on."
He smiled: "I can hold on."
"You can't hold it..." Sakura said calmly.
Everyone was stunned, and his smile also stiffened.
After a while, he said again: "Don't worry, you can hold on."
"You can't hold it!!!" Yingzi suddenly stood up, with tears in her eyes, looking at this man who she loved and hated at the same time, who gave her life, but was as cold as if he had nothing to do with her.
Relevant outsider man.
Lulu panicked. She stood up and said, "Aunt Yingzi, don't worry! We will take good care of him."
Yingzi sneered and said: "Fifteen years ago, you exterminated your relatives and asked the arbiter to take away your mother and younger brother from home, but you just watched...for what? For me? Or for what you insist on?
justice?"
Aaliya frowned: "Yingzi!"
When Yingzi heard the sound, she turned to look at Aaliya and Lin Xuehou beside her and said: "I'm sorry everyone, I know that for everyone, such a thing is not worth mentioning at all, so... I will leave first.
.”
Saying that, Yingzi was about to walk out.
But Lin Xue suddenly said: "Wait a minute, this story of yours... I really don't think I've ever heard him tell it before... Can you sit down and tell it slowly?"
Yingzi stood for a moment, but did not look back. After being silent for a while, she continued to walk out. This time, no one stopped her.
After leaving that room and losing sight of that person, Sakurako suddenly felt as if she was relieved.
The proprietress Xuan'er was sitting outside the house. When she saw Yingzi coming out, she waved and said, "Yingzi, let's have a cup of tea together."
Tea... Yingzi has been drinking boring tea all afternoon, and she is really not in the mood now, so she smiled slightly and said: "I have something to do, so I will leave first. Thank you for the hospitality." After saying that, Yingzi left the snack shop.
Xuan'er stared blankly at Yingzi's retreating back, then sighed deeply, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart.
…
The remaining people were a little embarrassed, especially Lulu. She came today purely at Aria's invitation. In fact, she didn't know anything about what they were going to do, and she didn't want to know too much.
So as soon as Yingzi left, Lulu also said goodbye.
Soon all the younger ones left, and the remaining ones didn't look too old, but in fact they were all over fifty years old.
When you think about it, it's really a gathering for the elderly.
Aaliya's face straightened and she said: "It's not convenient for us to ask about your family's private affairs, but if you don't have a successor now, we have to consider finding someone else to take over. Do you have any objections to this?"
He said lightly: "No, but... I'm still alive now, so I'd better not talk about this for now, okay?"
Aaliya frowned, slightly unhappy.
Lin Xue knew that the two of them were not quite on the right track, so she said: "The few things that have happened recently seem to be 'little things', but in fact, if these problems further expand, or if we still cannot find the source, then it is very likely that in the future
It will expand into a disaster that threatens the entire existence of reality... So I also ask you to be more clear-headed and serious, and don't think that the central curtain is gone and the disciples have been cleaned up, and the world will be a better place, okay?"
Xue Ming was convinced of this, and he said something that seemed to have nothing to do with it.
"Recently, there is a personnel review within the management level. It is probably because some people cannot be allowed to feel that they can sit back and relax all the time... But doing so will inevitably affect us and the entire Holy Ark Council. If the major families do not express their stance, then
There will be no chance to discuss these issues on the table in the future."
Aaliya understood clearly. She frowned and said: "We, the Steven family and the Han family, don't need to ask. The main problem now is the Pingyu Group! When we kicked him out, it was out of necessity during the war.
, I thought he would die, but I didn't expect that he was not only alive and well, but also pulled the other three major families into a boat... Now these people are equivalent to the 'disciples' sect. If they can't be handled properly, they will continue to do this.
If the review continues, things will really get serious."
Lin Xue didn't know much about the recent situation, but she still had a general idea.
In fact, these are not secrets.
The seven major families split into two factions after the dissolution of the New Union Government and the coming to power of the Glorious Republic.
One of the factions is the maintenance faction headed by the Rusteven family and the Han family, which supports the top management, and the other side is the "opposition" headed by the Bai family and the Constantine family, with the Pingyu Group as their spokesperson.
The reason why I put the quotation marks is not to say that what they did has not reached that level, but that the leaders at the highest management level knew what they were doing, but because their roots were too deep, they had to consider the overall issue.
Talk about selective neglect.
What's more, in recent years, the Arbiter has been "stained" in the process of purging disciples around the world, and many innocent people have been implicated. This itself has damaged the governing image of the highest management level. In addition, there have been protests from some civil society groups and some
With the support behind the scenes of a large financial group, the human society on Gaia seems to be a whole, but in fact it has been divided into two.
Of course, Han Kongwen and other top management-level governors are not worried at all that they will really divide the world, because that will completely expose their intentions, and as long as they lose their "name", things will be easier to handle...
But the problem is that they are very "well-behaved". Not only did they contribute at the beginning of the reconstruction of civilization, but they also penetrated their power everywhere over the years. Now they are so intricate that it can be said that they have reached the point where if they want to be completely eliminated,
It's the point of committing suicide.
Such a distorted development state is not what Xiao Qing and others are happy to see, but the devastation caused by the Central Curtain to the human world is too deep... The only way now is to maintain and wait.
In the words of Xiao Qing and others, time can smooth out everything. When all the disciples die due to the shortcomings of their own body structures, the remaining humans can naturally complete the transformation and purification of the entire society, and what they can do
It is to maintain this delicate balance as much as possible.
but……
