"Do you think you can stop me?" Mu Baichen looked at Xu Yun: "Kid, although I have always admired you, but if there is a difference in principles, I will not give in because of my admiration."
"This is indeed a matter of principles." Xu Yun nodded: "Senior Feng appeared here to help us, and also fought with Feng Wuhen for us. If we do something unjust at this time, wouldn't we have no principles at all?"
Mu Baichen said coldly: "My principles are not your principles. What's more, the members of the Dark Group are not human. From the day I joined the Dark Group, I was already 'dead'. I'm just a 'ghost' in the Dark Group, a ghost who works for the sake of the overall safety of the organization. "
Although Mu Baichen spoke very firmly, Xu Yun still had no intention of giving in: "Revered dark department, don't force me."
"I should be the one saying that to you." Mu Baichen said: "It is you who is forcing me, not me who is forcing you."
"The ghosts of the dark department are not used for this kind of thing." Xu Chen said with a slight smile.
Mu Baichen's gaze moved from Xu Yun to Xu Chen: "He is young, and doesn't know anything. You are different … You should be very clear about my duties. "
Xu Chen nodded, and said expressionlessly: "Yes, I am very clear about your duties. This is also the reason why I am still standing here to talk to you."
Hearing Xu Chen's words, Mu Baichen's body clearly stiffened. He did not expect Xu Chen to throw him such a threatening sentence.
"Have you been here for too long, so you have forgotten your identity?" Mu Baichen asked: "You should remember what your identity is, right? You should be very clear about what you are saying, right? "
"Perhaps I have been here for too long, so I really don't remember my identity." Xu Chen heard this and laughed: "Moreover, I have been here for so many years, what identity do I have?"
Mu Baichen was speechless.
"The only identity in my mind right now is that I am his father." Xu Chen looked at Xu Yun, and then used a very serious warning to warn Mu Baichen: "I only know that if anyone wants to hurt him, I will definitely eliminate the person who threatens my son at the first possible moment."
Mu Baichen saw that Xu Chen had made his stand clear and had nothing to say.
"Alright, I understand." Mu Baichen nodded, "Then you'll regret it."
Xu Chen smiled. "What's there to regret?"
"Have you forgotten why you stayed in this damned place for so many years?" Mu Baichen said, "If Feng Wuyin had hardened his heart and gotten rid of the scum of the Feng family back then, you wouldn't be here now. At that time, it was because of his own soft-heartedness that Feng Wuhen seriously injured him, causing him to spend many years to adjust his state of mind. It was also because of him that you were involved in this damned matter!"
Mu Baichen's words hit the nail on the head.
Even Zuo Lengyue stood on Mu Baichen's side. "That's right. If it wasn't for the two of them, you wouldn't have been trapped in this damned place for so many years."
"There is something called fate." Xu Chen said, "The arrangements that fate has given me are things that I can't change. I, Xu Chen, have this calamity in my life. Even if it wasn't because of them, I would have suffered a calamity that I couldn't escape from because of other things. "
"Fate?" Mu Baichen said, "You believe in such a thing?"
Xu Chen smiled slightly. "Before I came here, I never believed in it."
People would change. At some times, it was very difficult for people to understand the changes in people.
At least now, many people couldn't see through Xu Chen. Many times, Xu Chen himself couldn't see through himself. In the past, he thought that man could conquer the heavens. His fate was up to him, not the heavens. This was also Xu Yun's current mentality.
But after being here for so many years, his mentality had changed too much, and his thoughts had also changed too much.
This kind of combination of fixed numbers and variables was mysterious in the eyes of many people, but in Xu Chen's eyes, it wasn't that mysterious. Fate determined one's entire life.
There was a prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, who was also the imperial tutor of the Crown Prince. There was an article that had been passed down to this day. It was called fate.
A centipede has a hundred legs, but cannot move as fast as a snake. A rooster has two wings, but cannot fly as fast as a crow. Tyrant Chu was strong, but lost to the Wu River and committed suicide. The King of Han was weak, but had thousands of miles of territory. Li Guang had the power to shoot down a tiger, but had no title. Feng Tang had the talent to ride a dragon, but had never met a dragon in his life. With a belly full of essays, white hair couldn't hit the mark. With little talent and shallow learning, he passed the imperial examination at a young age. A young beauty, but attracted a foolish husband. A handsome gentleman, but matched with a coarse and ugly woman.
This was fate!
Without the right time, the sun and moon have no light. Without the earth, plants and trees do not grow. Without the water, the wind and waves are uneven. Without the people, fortune does not flow. Without meeting the flood dragon, he dives among the fish and turtles. When a gentleman loses, he bows his hands to a villain. Some were poor and then rich, some were old and strong and young. With unparalleled essays, Kong Zi 'e was superior to Chen Bang. With outstanding military strategy, Tai Gong fishes in the water. Before Han Xin met him, there were no three meals a day, and passers-by were bullied by everyone. When he met him, he had the military seal on his waist, and had the power to control the life and death of the world.
This was the right time, the right time!
Fortune and wealth were already arranged by fate, who did not want riches and honor?
If one did not follow the foundation of the eight characters, how could one be a minister? I used to live in Luoyang, in the morning I begged for monk's meals, in the evening I slept in a broken cellar. My clothes could not cover my body, my food could not satisfy my hunger. My superiors hated me, my subordinates hated me. People said I was cheap, but I did not abandon them.
Now in the imperial court, I am a top official, with three positions. Although I bow down to one person, I am above millions of people. I have a staff to scold hundreds of officials, a sword to cut down contempt. When I think of clothes, I have a thousand boxes of brocade. When I think of food, I have a hundred delicacies. When I go out, I have a strong warrior with a whip. When I enter, I have a beautiful woman holding a cup of wine. People said I am precious, but not because of my ability. This was the right time, the right time, the right time, and the right time.
This essay, if the same person read it at different times, would have different feelings and understandings.
When Xu Chen was young, his feelings towards this essay would be completely different from now.
Mu Baichen wanted to clarify their current dangerous situation. "If this time, Feng Wuyin still fails …"
"Just by myself, I can still trap Feng Wuhen here." Xu Chen interrupted Mu Baichen and said, "I have already experienced more than twenty years here. I don't care about another twenty years, or even more."
Xu Chen's words were from the bottom of his heart, honest and sincere.
"If that's the case, wouldn't so many of us coming here to save you be like drawing water with a bamboo basket?" Zuo Lengyue could not accept this result. ,
"If you are destined to draw water with a bamboo basket, even if I leave today, there will still be other unexpected things waiting for me." Xu Chen said with a smile. The current him was very open-minded about everything.
"No, I definitely won't allow it." Zuo Lengyue refused. "If we can't leave, I will stay behind to accompany you."
"Your fate will definitely not let you stay here." Xu Chen said, "Did Ling Feng and the others come with you? It's impossible for them to let you come here alone. As long as they come, they will definitely not let you make a willful decision. "
Zuo Lengyue said coldly, "Do you think they dare to stop me?"
"Then why do you think they don't dare?" Xu Chen asked back.
Zuo Lengyue was instantly speechless. What else could she say at this time? In fact, she knew Ling Feng and the others better than Xu Chen, so she knew very well what they would do and what they would choose.
This was something that Zuo Lengyue could not change.
Indeed, this might be a kind of fate's decision.
"Some things are destined." Xu Chen said, "So whether I can walk out of here is not something I can change. The so-called defying the heavens and changing fate is just nonsense in novels. It will not happen in reality. In reality, everyone can only accept their fate. "
Zuo Lengyue fell silent. Xu Yun was also stunned by this sentence. Mu Baichen did not say a word.
"Everyone is accepting their fate." Xu Chen glanced at Xu Yun and said indifferently, "Because you are my, Xu Chen's, son. So from the day you were born, you were destined to become the person you are today. People born in the Red Courtyard are also destined to fall into the whirlpool of political struggle. The children of farmers, from the day they become sensible, they will suffer. This is also something that cannot be changed. This is fate. "
"You accept your fate, but I don't." Xu Yun suddenly said, "I don't care what fate you have. Today, I will bring you out of here. If you say this is fate, then this is my fate. The fate that I arranged for myself."
